Prophetic Ministry Nuts
The Beauty Of Unity
Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!
It is like the precious ointment upon the head, that ran down upon the beard, even Aaron's beard: that went down to the skirts of his garments;
Psa 133:3 As the dew of Hermon, and as the dew] that descended upon the mountains of Zion: for there the LORD commanded the blessing, even life for evermore.
Just A Thought To Ponder
Trusting In The Lord
Isa 40:29 He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increaseth strength.
Isa 40:30 Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall:
Isa 40:31 But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.
Cross Roads
Then again, sometimes God's plans and purposes bring forth cross roads. That is to say, the cross roads are revelation unfolding. The key is to wait upon the spirit breathed moment when these cross roads come forth, stand in the revelation and words of God being positioned according to God's Will, plans and purposes.
Yes, the cross roads are here, the revelation will prove to be true, and God's Will, plans and purposes will come forth and will not be hindered.
You see, as one thing was being premeditated, God acted and counteracted.
All is well, no distractions, no loss... and the prophetic clock continues to tic.
Church As Usual
Do you ever find yourself looking back over the years, over all the conferences, all the hype, only to wonder "how did I get here" as your experiencing feelings as if the excitement, joy and zeal has been sucked right out of you?
We all possibly have or will encounter such feelings, realities and seasons. You see, a church being a body of believers should be filled with life, filled with anticipation, filled with zeal, not dead and powerless.
False hopes, false dreams and following them leads people down a path that leads to numbness, rather than joy.
The above comes after a conversation with a close friend.
That Devil Pride
Pride. I, I, I. Me, me, me. Pride is a funny thing, and it leads to loss, failure, and hinders success.
Pride cometh before a fall, but God honors the humble.

Ears That Hear
2009, The Year Of Change
There is much happening not only in this nation, but around the world. Financial problems, banking problems, the stock market, massive foreclosures, major corporations closing and lay offs. Our news and lives seem to be filled with the reality of such.
There is a song that we occasionally sing at church, and part of the words go like this.
2Ch 7:14 If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.
A Recent Symbolic Dream
I found myself standing at a counter and a young man named David walked up to me and handed me a colorful bag. I looked at the bags and knew that it's contents were cans of food.
I then turned to a standard size refrigerator, opened the door and there were stacks and stacks of aluminum trays filled with homemade enchilada's with all the trimmings. So I grabbed a plate and placed a enchilada on the plate and handed it to the young man.
As I was doing this, my dad (symbolic) walked up to me and said "your wife (symbolic) is in the next room (symbolic) filing for divorce", so I walked into the next room and there was my wife sitting with another woman (symbolic) who was quite shocked that I walked up as she was instigating this process.
So I walked up to my wife (symbolic) and said "If you want a divorce, you can have one. I don't want one, but if that's what you want, I have the authority to give you one, but the baby (symbolic) goes with me.
Interesting dream, however right on course.
The scriptural application to the above symbolic dream is profound.
The Spirit Of Control
For where the spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.
Sensationalism, Hype, Spectacularism
For eventually they will catch on, just like the ones in the past that have come and gone. Unfortunately the seasons and times of today are unlike the pockets of yesterday.
Change is coming, major change, and all will see it.
Double Standards
Three Of Four
Change Is Coming
There is a new direction coming that will direct people out of one thing and into new beginnings, new territories and change. They will seek and find deeper waters, new watering holes, freedom and places where the anointing flows freely, richly and without religious spirits and control tactics that hinder such.
Not by power, not by might ....
The Blessings Of God
I just want to encourage you to seek the Lord. To call out to God for help, for direction, for comfort.
May God's favor shine upon you.

A Greater Catch
Monterey is a picturesque community, 100 miles south of San Francisco. It is situated on the great Monterey Bay.
The Monterey Bay, gave to the city of Monterey all the bounty of the ocean. For decades Monterey fishermen brought back the fruit of the sea, the fish, that fed millions of people in America.
The backbone of this great fishery, and therefore of the economy in Monterey, was the annual catch of sardines.
These sardines were captured, brought to port, and then to Cannery Row – a row of fish canning operations lining the Monterey beach. There, of course, the sardines were packed into silver cans, wrapped in a red and black paper seal declaring them to be high-quality sardines from Monterey, California. They were then shipped throughout America and the world.
And the economy was good.
But, in the summer of 1905, something terrible happened. An economic disaster of unprecedented proportions happened to this bustling fishing town.
The disaster was this: the fishermen and their many boats, and many employees, simply over fished the sardine population. They did it to such a degree, that the sardines couldn't reproduce their stock – and, suddenly, sardines simply disappeared from the fisherman's nets! They were gone! And with them, were also, apparent to everyone, the good times for people in Monterey.
But – and this is a very important but – this was not the end of the story. A very great and ominous disaster had happened on their watch, but now something wondrous and hopeful, also took place on their watch.
Here is what, actually, happened: first, the people of Monterey and their churches, prayed. Now, whether you believe in prayer or not, that is secondary to the story. My duty is just to give hope and tell you how the story turned out, in actual history.
Most of the ship owners in Monterey doubled as their own ship captains. There were no big corporate fleets. It was mostly private fishermen who had built their fishing business to the level of having a ship or two, and going out daily and bringing the fish back. They worked hard at it, and they became better and better at what they did, and therefore became more and more successful.
But the sea had always helped them. Now that the sardines were gone, what next? What would happen to the economy, to the ship owners and captains, and to all the crews and their families?
The captains of the ships talked among themselves. As they talked, they told tales that they had heard long ago, about schools of great fish, that a Monterey fisherman and his ship and crew had once found.
But, these great fish, which were only known by the thin thread of perhaps a tall tale, were caught as far out as 200 miles from the shore! No Monterey fisherman and his crew, at least for decades, had gone beyond 20 miles!
No one ever dared to go that far! It had not yet entered the imagination of the people.
They had the vessels for it, and the crews. Now what they needed was some bold and intrepid captains, who would dare to go farther into deeper waters, than anyone ever had before.
And, in a true to life story, several believing captains, with their valiant ships and willing crews, set out to find out if the tales of these great fish had any truth to them.
They went fifty miles. Then eighty miles. Then over a hundred miles. But approximately one hundred and fifty miles out, they saw "boiling water" – a strange occurrence on the surface of the water that far out in the middle of the sea.
The captains and their crews, decided to fish these "boiling waters." For their efforts, they began to pull in yellowfin tuna anywhere from 100 to 300 pounds! And there was no end to them!
Now, dear reader, understand that until this date in history, no one in the entire world had ever eaten tuna. Well, maybe some long ago sea captain and his crew had. But for the most part, tuna had never been known before. It had never been seen or eaten!
So, the intrepid sea captains and their fishermen returned home to Monterey with great good news – and a big load of great fish!
Think about it. Sardines were only 4 to 8 inches long, and now the fishermen replaced them with tuna that were 4-8 feet long! The sardines weighed a half-pound at best, and the tuna weighed up to three hundred pounds. In fact, later, as fishermen found the will to go farther, they caught bluefin tuna, that weighed up to 1500 pounds!
Thus, by being willing to go further than anyone had gone before and by choosing to act in new ways rather than just sit and suffer, although the economy went down with the sardines – now it went up with the tuna! Following what might have been just a tall story by an old salt, turned out to give the people of Monterey a true, and much greater, story. They introduced tuna and tuna fishing to the world. Their ships got bigger. Their crews got paid more. More tourists came to Monterey. The little bustling fishing didn't go down with the sardines!
Somehow, the town, its people, and its economy all got a new lease on life. They grew. They prospered. And – they fed the whole world to a far greater degree.
In that summer day of 1905, when the sardine stock fell and the bottom dropped out of the sardine business, it shook everybody up. But, they said their prayers, decided to go further than ever before, chose to "seek a greater story" – and, however combined elements made it happen – tuna, much larger than sardines, and a tuna catch, much greater than the total sardine catch had ever achieved, was brought into the history, and to the palates, of the entire world.
The economy recovered and boomed.
My friends, could it be possible that right now, this very day, that even as you experience the loss of something you long felt secure and that you built your hopes on, just a little farther ahead, with a little willingness to keep your chin and morale up, exploring a little further, pursuing a greater, not lesser, story for you and yours, we might ourselves see our "sardines" not just gone, but our own kind of new, far greater, "tuna" right in front of us replacing our loss with something much better?
I believe that people with the American dream, don't just get better dreams. They get a better story. It comes complete with the faith, the new vision, the will to try, the solid meat of the fish, the adventures, and the tale to tell all our children about.
The measure of something great is that greater things still come out of it.
Say your prayers, stoke the embers of your dreams and visions. Listen to wise stories. Make your minds and ships go further into the ocean of the Spirit – and I believe either you yourself, or some intrepid captains, are going to come back with the equivalent of boatloads of silver tuna in our time – together with directions how you can get a lot more of them.

Signs Of The Last Days
2Ti 3:2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
2Ti 3:3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,
2Ti 3:4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;
2Ti 3:5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.
2Ti 3:6 For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts,
2Ti 3:7 Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.
