Pioneering in 2009

Pioneering in '09 - Part 2: For Leaders

By Marc A. Dupont

Over four years ago we released a prophetic word the Lord gave me regarding the necessity of a fresh valuing of wholeness and holiness among leaders in the contemporary church. (See the Hole in the Wall word) At that time the Lord was warning leaders who secretly practiced sin that if they did not choose to get right with Him that the hidden things would be revealed to the world. If we were to make a list of the well known and some not so well known leaders in the Body of Christ who have had hidden things exposed over the last 4 years it would be a long list, indeed. The pain, doubt, and heartache that have come to their congregations, ministries, and families has been extensive. Just in one week alone, towards the end of our N. American summer, 4 different leaders, from 3 different continents, experienced hidden sin made public to various degrees.

Over the last 3 months I have sensed the Lord saying that 09 is a time for pioneering new visions, strategies, and Holy Spirit endeavors. In the face of everything being shaken that can be shaken, including the worlds economies, the Lord is saying He is giving us fresh initiatives to invest in. Hopefully, this article entitled Pioneering in 09 will be up on our web site soon. (www.marcdupontministries.org)

The last few weeks, however, I have been experiencing a tremendous sense of urgency for leaders today to know the seriousness of both Gods intentions for the new season AND the importance of walking in His ways. King David, one of the greatest of Israels Kings shepherded Israel not only by the skill of his hands, but in the integrity of his heart!

Just as the Israelites did, indeed, face giants, impenetrable armed fortresses, and fierce enemies with chariots, so are those who respond to the leading of God going to go into some fierce battles of faith this year. I do not say to be either ominous or fear mongering. Quite the contrary- I believe the Lord wants us to be recaptured by a sense of adventure in the faith department. But, I do believe the Lord is giving a real warning that if due to either hidden sin, and/or a lack of maturity in our hearts we will not be able to stand against the warfare thats coming. Jeremiah stated, If you have run with footmen and they have tired you out, Then how can you compete with horses? If you fall down in a land of peace, How will you do in the thicket of the Jordan? (Jeremiah 12.5)

I wish I could state this with more prophetic clarity, or specifics, but.. God is both calling His leaders into fresh initiatives in extending the Kingdom AND He will allow the enemy to attempt to intimidate and/or cause problems in order to derail us from obeying the Lord. Sin is satans legal territory. If there is any wiggle room in our lives which give him access to manipulate us- he will take advantage of it. Jesus stated the ruler of the world is coming, (but) he has nothing in Me. (John 14.30b)

Some of the warfare will be preemptive strikes even as the Israelites on occasion experienced in the Promised Land. And while God is always serious about the increase of His kingdom, I believe the next 3 years are an appointed time of serious breakthroughs of the gospel in the western world nations.

It will not be enough that we have made it thus far. As with Isaiah receiving his calling, anointing, and commissioning before the Presence of the Lord so God will be calling us to truly know the fear of the Lord in our lives. Jesus, Himself, according to Isaiah would delight in the fear of the Lord (Isaiah 11.3) - wanting to please the Father in all aspects of His heart, mind, and actions.

There will be giants that God will call us to battle by faith in the face of impossibilities. What that means is God is willing that we be surrounded by impossibilities in order for us to be forced into trusting Him for the miraculous of heaven to come more regularly on earth as it is in heaven. There will absolutely be no substitutes for Romans 10.17. We will be forced to operate out of the faith of God, that comes about by hearing the directions of God. There will be a sharp distinction between those who serve Him as sons, (Romans 8.14) as opposed to those who do not know the difference between good ideas and God ideas.

Without wanting to get into any methodology here, I have listed 5 basic, but absolutely vital, characteristics leaders must embrace in order to take the new lands for God.

1) Leaders must know their authority, but must also know how to exercise that authority in humility not pride, or arrogance. God is against the proud, but gives a greater grace to the humble. Basically, that humility is simply realizing what they have achieved and can achieve is always due to the grace of God. A man can receive nothing unless it has been given him from heaven!

2) Leaders must emulate Christ Jesus who, while being the only begotten Son of God, came to serve rather than being served.

3) Leaders must begin to operate as fathers, as opposed to mere teachers. A teacher is only interested in correcting. A father wants to train and encourage his sons and daughters to successfully enter into their destinies.

The highly hyped and in many ways un Christ like CEO model which some church leaders have bought into smacks of this worlds hierarchies, as opposed to the servant/leader model of Jesus. The callus insistence of many CEOs today of receiving obscene bonuses in a time of economic chaos is indicative of the inherent problems of hierarchal type structures (wine skins, Biblically speaking).

4) Leaders must hunger and thirst for the righteousness of God in our lives. The writer of Hebrews said that apart from sanctification no one would see the Lord! Jesus stated that it would be the pure of heart that would see God. I am not speaking of sinless perfection, but rather of daily realizing dependence on the empowering of the Word and the Spirit to walk in a way pleasing to God. (An added bonus is this will help facilitate a relationship based relationship with God instead of a task based relationship)

Any ongoing practicing of sin in the heart, mind, or body will prevent us from really running this race before us. A revelation of the holiness of the Holy Spirit is not an option, but rather an absolute prerequisite for these years ahead.

Leaders today must learn to embrace life-giving relationships with peers. It will not be lone pastors, prophets, evangelists, or apostles who will prevail. Rather it will be prophetic and apostolic teams and congregations that will take the land. It is only out of a genuine Christ like regard of considering each other as important as self that we can know that place of commanded blessing in our communities.

Faith to enter in to the battle is vitally important but, in and of itself, not enough. Because of just one mans sin- Achan, having taken and hidden things under the ban, Israel was unable to stand against their enemy. Righteousness of heart, mind, and body is the freedom we can choose to walk in. It is a prerequisite to picking up our weapons of warfare. Otherwise, according to Hebrews 12.1, we will end up feebly trying to attack the Goliaths.

But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you. (Matthew 6.33)

Time to Cross

Dennis and Diane Cramer:

"It's Time to Cross the Line in 2009!"

Greetings!

Read carefully a powerful prophecy that God gave my wife Diane for 2009. It's a truly awesome word! You will be blessed!

In His service,

Denny Cramer

First of all, it's time to cross the finish line in 2009. It's time to bring to fusion those tasks, projects, goals and purposes that God has ordained thus far for you and your walk with Him. No more waiting, procrastinating and putting off. Now is the time to complete those races that you've been running. Old goals must be "retired," completed, and accomplished for the glory of God. Time to finish those races because God wants to "train" and prepare His people for a new season: a new marathon of might, mercy, and miracles.

God is also preparing His people to cross new lines into enemy territory on an unprecedented scale. It is time to set the captives free in mass and magnitude like today's Church has never known. God will have His people "in training" to deliver those prisoners trapped in the occult and cults, in empty religion, in pornography, in obsessive compulsive behavior, addictions, depression, health issues, fears, and poverty.

A flood of prodigals will return to the Lord, bringing great rejoicing to the loved ones that have diligently prayed for their return.

New age doctrines will greatly increase, but leave their followers empty, weak, and dependent on temporary answers. The Gospel will come alive to them and set them truly free. Doors will open like never before into Islam, Scientology, and Mormonism to bring truth and deliverance to those people.

As evil increases, so will the power and presence of the Church. God will open doors that most individuals have not gone through before. He will prepare the hearts of the lost and deceived to hear and receive the Gospel to literally save their (mortal) lives. The lost will be delivered powerfully as well from the evil spiritual shackles that have bound and paralyzed them, and they will be transformed into the eternal salvation of Jesus Christ. God's people can no longer "do church," but they must "BE THE CHURCH."

Our Weapons of Warfare

God will equip His servants with His weapons of warfare. The sword of the spirit, His Word, will be the primary offensive weapon. The Church will verbally declare the Word of God over situations, and then by the power of the Holy Spirit results will occur in miraculous, immediate, and supernatural ways and beyond the scope of logical expectations. Jesus sent the Word and it was done and so will God's servants.

The disciples of Christ will need to embrace the Scriptures on a passionate level; the hunger and necessity for the knowledge of the Word will increase for the general population of the Church. Through the Word of God, "Whom the Son sets free will be free indeed" (John 8:36). There needs to be an expectation for the impossible. Faith needs to be applied, since "all things are possible to him who believes" (Mark 9:23).

The Holy Spirit will sweep across the earth with comfort, power and refreshing as He has always done, but there will be prayer answered, healings realized and the atmosphere changed with immediacy upon the declaration of His Word by His saints.

Secondly, the power of the spiritual weapon of praise and worship will be essential to accomplish the purposes of invading the enemy's territory. It will be the most powerful way: to "resist the devil, and he will flee" (James 4:7); for God to "inhabit the praises of His people" (Psalm 22:3); and "In (His) presence, is fullness of joy" (Psalm 16:11) and have "The joy of the Lord is our strength" (Nehemiah 8:10).

Worshipping God with all diligence and passion will equip His people with strength and direct the steps of the righteous as their hearts, minds and ears are turned to Him. The high sounding praises of the saints to God will shackle the enemy. This worship will be as the breath of God to invigorate the Body of Christ. Worship will oxygenate the life flow of the Church.

People will be filled to overflowing to powerfully accomplish His will. New levels of His presence will be realized by many who will give God time and opportunity to make these visitations by His Spirit.

New Revelation of Joy

In addition, there will be a new revelation of joy. The Church will not be dependent on the world's standard for happiness, fulfillment, or success. Joy will originate with Jesus, with His peace, and with His purposes being pursued. Life will be abundant for the Church, but God will direct us into simplifying our existence on a daily basis. It will not be a time of want or lack, but a time of balance and back to basics. "The Kingdom of God is not meat and drink, but righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Ghost" (Romans 14:17).

We will be reminded of the importance of relationships and Body ministry. The Church will meet in homes more than ever, and a new sense of church family will be birthed. The rescued victims from the enemy's territory will be easily adopted into these families. This will be a new beginning for the Church that desires the increased power and presence of the living God.

Lastly, the Church will need the workings of the five fold ministry to successfully cross the line into the enemy's territory. The pastors are overworked and stretched and not equipped to do it all. No longer should it be business as usual. The Church needs an offensive military strategy of cooperation and unity to conquer the enemy's control of his victims.

There needs to be a surge on the areas where rescues need to occur by the joint efforts of the pastor, teacher, evangelist, prophet and apostle. This is the design of the original Church, God's original and perfect plan, and God wants it reestablished in the current Church. The Church needs to be trained in the establishment of this multi-faceted leadership and Church government that will establish a majorly effective Church in these latter days. Sadly we've forgotten or avoided that original design.

Get ready to cross the lines of demarcation in 2009 - some not ever before crossed. The Church will claim and reclaim territory that belongs to the Kingdom of God. It is God's plan for this new year to shake off the old ways, finish the former tasks, and set our sights on new goals, a new race to a new finish line. God wants to be the Church's Personal Trainer, preparing each of His children for a heavenly race of Olympic proportions. This will be for a mighty season of victory over evil that exists in the world, while increasing the Body of Christ as God's people "prepare the way of the Lord."

"The Kingdom of Heaven suffers violence and the violent take it by force"(Matthew 11:12).

"He has shown thee O man what is good and what does the Lord require of you, but to do justly, to love mercy and to walk humbly with thy God" (Micah 6:8).

God prepare and bless us all.

Breaker Anointing

Keith Miller:

"Anointed for Impact:
The Overwhelming Force of the Breaker Anointing"

While I was in prayer one morning, I felt led of the Lord to share about the Breaker Anointing: about what it is, about the increase of that anointing which is coming, and to encourage you to get ready for it! For now, I would like to set a foundation in preparation for future study and examination of the deeper depths yet that the Lord has shared with me concerning this.

This coming flow of the Breaker Anointing will manifest throughout the Body of Christ - flowing through individuals, families, and groups in meetings, in churches, and at events citywide, regionally, statewide, nationally, and internationally.

The Breaker Anointing is powerful. Whenever it is present, I have seen the Lord move in great ways, particularly over the last 14 years, and increasingly so the past year. We can be in a meeting when this anointing flows and see, feel, and experience a change in the atmosphere of the room or the city or the region. We have had four-day meetings in the last weeks because of the great presence and fire of the Lord.

When the Breaker Anointing comes - it leaves an impression. It is like a wildfire that cannot be put out - overtaking and changing the land. I have seen churches thrust into great spheres of effectiveness according to the plans God has had for them. People are powerfully impacted, their lives and their families restored and transformed.

How would you like to see increase like that? I believe that we are starting to see this now and will see a great increase of this realm and flow of the Holy Spirit. The King of Glory will break open gates long closed, and mighty things will happen!

Great Boldness

Often, as I step into the pulpit, a holy and mighty fire engulfs me and there is a sudden release of a powerful realm of the strength and power of the Lord! The fire of His presence blazes through the atmosphere (no matter how hard or impenetrable), moving and empowering His people in extraordinary and fresh new ways such that weariness, doubt, unbelief, stress, negative attitudes, fear, and anything holding anyone back is loosed for a tremendous release - and soaring into freedom. How often I hear great guttural cries well up from incredibly deep depths of people's hearts. Whispers become roars as the Lion of Judah wells up in boldness from within.

This anointing from the Holy Spirit takes one from weakness to boldness and originates from deep within the inner man! It is an awesome fearsome thing to watch the Lord empower His people with His Holy strength, releasing the boldness to believe the impossible is possible!

The Anointing Ushers in the Glory!

The anointing is literally the atmosphere of "as it is in Heaven" so shall it be upon the Earth, piercing through the natural atmosphere and literally ushering in the might and glory of the Lord! It pierces! It causes "suddenlies!" Suddenly there is an open Heaven infilling of people and places with the glory of the Lord whereby restrictions lift and much is accomplished for the Kingdom.

The breakthrough glory realm sets in deep like a peg firmly planted, altering everything to bring in great fruit and breakthrough in new levels of destiny as the mandates of Heaven start to manifest in and for people, meetings, churches, events - and even cities and regions.

In this atmosphere of open Heavens, resulting from the Breaker Anointing breakthrough of the Holy Spirit, signs, wonders, miracles, healings, and salvations manifest like crazy! I can only describe it as the air literally being saturated by His presence as these things happen. The Kingdom of God floods the airwaves of the natural as the King breaks through the gate for major impact.

Anointing for Impact

Impact happens when two things collide together. When we pray, we are asking for the Kingdom of Heaven to impact the natural. A good spiritual example: When someone prays for another about a particular situation and the anointing, this great power of the precious Holy Spirit releases to destroy the yoke and remove the burden. The anointing, which is the tangible substance of the power of the presence of the Holy Spirit, impacts the person prayed for in the area of needed breakthrough.

Whether it is a needed healing, a yoke, oppression, a broken heart, a major obstacle, whatever the need we are praying for on behalf of another, whatever we are interceding for on behalf of the one who asks for prayer - impact comes. The anointing of the Lord, which is the supernatural power and presence of the Holy Spirit, comes forth for tremendous results.

If the anointing flows and comes upon you - it could break open the atmosphere of your life to restore and heal your entire family! Imagine this anointing coming into a meeting or crusade, flooding the meeting place or even stadium to break through tough atmospheres - bringing impact to a greater degree. Bring it up a measure and see the same flow for a city or region!

Can You Imagine?

Can you imagine a major breakout of the glory of the Lord for breakthrough in your family, city, or region? The Breaker Himself breaking through for transformation can make anything happen...anything! Be prepared to ascend the hill - to climb to greater heights and cover more ground for the Kingdom than you ever thought possible before. Gates of cities are about to be broken to pieces by the Breaker and mighty things will take place for the Glory of the Lord!

Expect a resurgence of wells - the opening of old wells long forgotten or impossible to get to or thought dried up. Imagine seeing those wells swell up, overflow, and pour out salvation in abundance for the multitudes!

"Rain down, you heavens, from above, and let the skies pour down righteousness; and let the earth open, let them bring forth salvation, and let righteousness spring up together. I, the LORD, have created it." Isaiah 45:8

Double Doors and Straight Paths

When the anointing came upon Cyrus (see Isaiah 45), the Lord subdued nations before him, loosed the armor of kings, and opened before him the double doors so that the gate would not be shut! God made crooked places straight. He broke in pieces gates of bronze and cut the bars of iron!

Are there crooked places in your life that need to be made straight? The anointing straightens your path. Are there seemingly insurmountable obstacles that prevent you from accomplishing that which God has set out for you to do? God will smash through and break into pieces the gates of bronze! Are you imprisoned by inescapable bars of iron? God will cut them! Get ready. Do you know what else happens? He gives us the treasures of darkness and the hidden riches of secret places (see Isaiah 45:1-3). This is all about to happen as the anointing increases in coming days, weeks, and months.

Have One Purpose

In David's psalm about the King of Glory and His Kingdom, (Psalm 24), David prefaces almost as emphasis that those who may ascend into the hill of the Lord or who may stand in His holy place are those who have clean hands and a pure heart, those who are only sold out to God.

Listen, in preparation we must be a people whose lives have this purpose to stand in His Holy Place, to be a gate, an opening that ushers in His glorious presence that the King of Glory would enter, break through, smash down, break into pieces, the Lord strong and mighty!

When the King of Glory comes through the gates, He is strong and mighty. When you are in the Presence of the Mighty King, you give honor, glory, and power to His name and the glory releases a realm of honor and righteousness.

Release of Strength and Might

Strength and might are two attributes that flood the atmosphere in His presence. Strength and might are released deep into the hearts of God's people such that people have the strength to cast off their burdens and supernaturally believe the impossible to be possible. This strength of the Lord establishes us in "we can do all things through Christ who strengthens us" (see Philippians 4:13).

Oh, what an amazing thing it is to see the glory of the King drench a place and to witness the release of His holy zeal that transforms downcast souls into mighty ones! Strength and might - strength and might comes when we usher in His presence, when the mighty ones "give unto the LORD the glory due to His name" when we "worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness" (see Psalm 29:1, 2).

In the atmosphere of the King of Kings, repentance comes! Yes! The Spirit of Truth begins to convict the world of sin, makes people conscious of righteousness, and of judgment! Isn't it awesome! What possibility! Can you see this come upon your family, your city, the nation? I can attest to smaller-scale breakouts where people literally race, run, lunge for, and storm the altar to be born again, sometimes even interrupting a message.

Release of the Spirit of Truth

In addition, the Spirit of Truth reveals all truth to Believers. So in this atmosphere those who are already Believers who are bound by deception or by other things, the Spirit reveals their true condition, and a deep cry looses from the greatest inner depths of their beings and reestablishes them in a rightful way. This is all by the Holy Spirit; the Spirit of Truth reveals and lifts dark veils.

Get ready for more of this in coming days: mass repentance, mass salvations, and mass healings; waves and waves, deeper wells, continual breakthrough person-to-person, family-to-family, city-to-city, and nation-to-nation as the atmosphere of His strength and might - His presence - transforms.

Lingering Breakthrough

This realm of glory can literally linger upon a place and upon anyone who has entered into a building or into a place where the glory is present. The place becomes a holy zone where amazing things happen in the lingering realm of glory! I have seen it happen! Remember who comes through the gates - the King of Glory!

In this realm, the dominion and the holiness of His presence intensifies because His Kingship is in the glory! Everything that is not of the Kingdom must bow to the Name Above All Names. Such an atmosphere is like a sonic boom in the spirit as His glory intensifies and becomes like a perpetual far-reaching wave, or like a stone thrown into the water with the water continually releasing ripples that touch the outer rims. When in the glory, in His precious presence, hear the thunder for a powerful release...Boom!

According to David's breakthrough psalm (Psalm 29) "The God of glory thunders; the LORD is over many waters." His voice is "powerful," and "full of majesty." David describes God as "breaking the cedars," yes, even splintering the "cedars of Lebanon"! He "shakes the wilderness," "strips the forests bare," and makes the "deer give birth"! Glory! Glory!

Psalm 29: David's Breakthrough Psalm: A Psalm of David:

"Give unto the LORD, O you mighty ones,
Give unto the LORD glory and strength.
Give unto the LORD the glory due to His name;
Worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness.

"The voice of the LORD is over the waters;
The God of glory thunders;
The LORD is over many waters.
The voice of the LORD is powerful;
The voice of the LORD is full of majesty.

"The voice of the LORD breaks the cedars,
Yes, the LORD splinters the cedars of Lebanon.
He makes them also skip like a calf,
Lebanon and Sirion like a young wild ox.
The voice of the LORD divides the flames of fire.

"The voice of the LORD shakes the wilderness;
The LORD shakes the Wilderness of Kadesh.
The voice of the LORD makes the deer give birth,
And strips the forests bare;
And in His temple everyone says, 'Glory!'

"The LORD sat enthroned at the Flood,
And the LORD sits as King forever.
The LORD will give strength to His people;
The LORD will bless His people with peace."

Breakthrough in the Glory brings about many things, as you can see by this psalm. Notice that when the breakthrough comes it breaks, shakes, sets afire, and births! And it brings about strength and peace. Those in the atmosphere of His presence experience strength and peace. Give Him glory! Shout "Glory!"

According to Micah 2:13,

"The one who breaks open will come up before them; they will break out, pass through the gate, and go out by it; their king will pass before them, with the LORD at their head."

Their king will pass before them with the Lord at their head! This is awesome. The Lord is the Breaker who breaks open the gate so that we can pass through for breakthrough! Yes, so that we can move forward in breakthrough. This is important that we move forward, especially in coming days.

"Go through, go through the gates! Prepare the way for the people; build up, build up the highway! Take out the stones, lift up a banner for the peoples!" (Isaiah 62:10).

Although this reference directly refers to the deliverance of the Jews out of Babylon, it also relates to the great redemption wrought out by Jesus Christ, and the proclamation of grace and freedom through Him.

When you go through the gate that the Breaker has opened, you lay a course for the troops to follow; the banner of Jesus lifted high signals them to follow you through - hallelujah! God breaks open the gate, making a way for this salvation of the multitudes. All difficulties will be removed and whatever might obstruct your path will be taken out of the way. He breaks through the gates of Babylon, throwing them open, that multitudes will have the freedom to go through them - the way from Babylon to the Promised Land.

The stones will be gathered from rough and rocky places and placed in convenient places to guide, direct, and encourage. The One who breaks open will come up before them, and they will breakout and pass through the Gate, and go out by it. Their king will pass before them with the Lord at their head!

Recall that when He goes before us and breaks open and breaks the gates to pieces, treasures from the darkness are released, the hidden riches of secret places (see Isaiah 45). This has a profound impact on cities and entire regions. With the Breaker going before us, those crooked places will be made straight, and things that have been kept in darkness will be loosed.

Sudden Breakthrough Brings Overwhelming Force

Expect sudden and quick breakthrough. When David went to Baal Perazim and defeated the Philistines, he said, "The LORD has broken through my enemies before me, like a breakthrough of water" (2 Samuel 5:20). Note that the Lord went out before him to strike the enemy first.

What does a breakthrough of water look like? Imagine a dam busting wide open! Imagine a great wall of water breaking through and flowing, flowing over everything. Imagine rivers of waters breaking the banks, overflowing a land, and overturning all that stands in their way.

David defeated the Philistines with an overwhelming force, like a breakthrough of water. The Philistines ran, leaving their images and idols there that they had thought would help them defeat the Israelites, and David and his mighty men carried those Philistine idols away (see verse 21).

Imagine what will happen to the enemy when breakthrough comes, when the Lord goes before you with overwhelming force.

Divine Direction and Wisdom

The manifold wisdom of God also will manifest. Wisdom sits at the gates. When David inquired of the Lord what he should do after the first victory, the Lord gave him clear directions saying, "You shall not go up; circle around behind them, and come upon them in front of the mulberry trees. And it shall be, when you hear the sound of marching in the tops of the mulberry trees, then you shall advance quickly." When David did so, as God commanded and instructed, he drove back the enemy quite a distance (see 2 Samuel 5:22-26).

Here we see the manifold wisdom of God being made known by His people to the "principalities and powers in the heavenly places" (see Ephesians 3:10). How awesome to know that God breaks through the gates to go out before us to strike the enemy. David actually waited for the Lord to strike the camp of the enemy first, according to the plan.

In an atmosphere of breakthrough, everything of the Lord intensifies and amplifies. Everything increases because breakthrough has come! Expect a new level of ministry, of gifting, of signs, of the anointing, of wonders, of healings, of miracles, of finances, of wisdom, of revelation, of understanding, and of destiny in your life! Expect more fruit for the Kingdom, and more impact!

Steward Your Breakthrough

When you hit a breakthrough, steward it with a humble heart, with purity, with gladness, giving all the glory to God, and you will see another wave, and another wave that will increase your sphere of influence and effectiveness for the Kingdom.

You cannot command breakthrough or tell God when you want it or how you want it, it just comes as He wants it to come and when He wants it to come. You cannot hype it up, you can't make it happen, because He is the Breaker! If you are a leader in ministry, breakthrough might not happen this coming Sunday, or next month, but be prepared, because it will come, and it will come suddenly! God may break through the gates during praise time, or prayer time, through a prophetic decree, or the preaching of the Word, or through a mighty act, or "just-like-that." Oh get ready! I have experienced it and I know what it is like.

Many times as I step into the pulpit or onto a meeting stage, I feel that fiery presence of the Lord meeting me there, colliding with me! Suddenly, I have a holy boldness that was not there before and my bones are on fire! As this powerful realm of Kingdom dominion overtakes and breaks through the atmosphere, I suddenly flow with Him and see incredible impossibilities happen.

Oh how wonderful when the anointing lingers day to day, even week to week, and longer! And what impact! Great and glorious ripple-effect impact! We've seen this happen in generations past with some of the great men and women who became history makers with God. Some of these outpourings lasted for years.

Friends - wow, this is coming again, where we will see the Body of Christ flow continuously in established and sustained breakthroughs for massive change, living out the reality of Acts 19:20, as Paul did! Yes, we will experience Kingdom explosions whereby the "word of the Lord" will grow "mightily" and "prevail"! We will see the fear of the Lord fall upon the multitudes and "the name of the Lord Jesus Christ" magnified! (See Acts 19:17-20.)

Do you want a breakthrough of water that will drive your enemies back a distance? Do you need wisdom and direction? Do you want to take your ministry up a couple of mega notches? Are there brass doors, bars of iron, or is there hard, impenetrable ground that has prevented breakthrough of any kind in your life: financial, spiritual, or in the areas of healing, and deliverance? Do you have a heart for souls but haven't seen harvest? Has fruit been lacking? How would you like grape clusters so big it takes two to haul one on a staff (see Numbers 13:23)?

Be prepared to see this realm of the Breaker Anointing Glory be ushered in to bring a new atmosphere. Be ready at the gate with clean hands and a pure heart, sold out to the One who is about to break through for mega transformation and increase. Collide with Him and He will empower you with His strength and His might, with His overwhelming force for mega breakthrough and major impact for the Kingdom!

There is more coming about the Breaker Anointing, and I'm excited to share more with you as the Lord leads me to.

Rich blessings to you,
