DEDICATION
I want to dedicate this book to my wife Jan, who is my best
friend, partner in ministry and absolute love of my life. Without
your support and understanding of what it takes for me to do
what I do, most of the ministry, including my writing, would not
be possible. Time and time again you have set your own needs
aside to put others first without ever complaining, and doing
so with a pure heart and not begrudgingly. You are a true
treasure to me and are the glue that holds this whole thing
together. Not only is Jan the mother of our seven, soon to be
eight children, but she is a grandparent along with myself to
ten grand kids—which I’m sure there will be many, many more
to come. I love you baby!

The Furious Sound of Glory is a wonderful book. The author,
Jeff Jansen, has done a great job of helping us understand the
connection between the visible and invisible world, between
the natural and the spiritual. This will surely be used as a

Jeff Jansen has tapped into the very heart of God for this new
epoch season. The Furious Sound of Glory unearths a “new
sound” for a new season. This book is a clarion call for radical
revivalists to rise up in this epic transition and take our rightful
place on earth. Jeff is like a Holy Spirit conductor, leading the
armies of God into a new song of revelation, and unleashing
the heavenly realms to reign until all flesh is drenched with the
outpouring of God’s Spirit. I highly recommend The Furious
Sound of Glory.

For over the last four years I’ve worked closely with Jeff
Jansen, a present day general in the Body of Christ, and a good
friend and mentor of mine. I’ve been continually amazed by his
hunger, passion and faith to see and release the supernatural
exploits of God and to train and equip this generation to move
in miracle working power. In his book, The Furious Sound of
Glory, Jeff Jansen describes and has prophesied about this
next great awakening—It’s time to harmonize with heaven’s
heartbeat and release on the earth The Furious Sound of
Glory!

The Furious Sound of Glory by Jeff Jansen will deeply stir
your heart and set your soul ablaze for more of God’s Glory
and power to be released upon the earth. Jeff releases insights
that will help prepare you to be true overcomers. You will gain
valuable insights into the spiritual significance of both sights
and sounds. This book will help awaken your heart to seek the
Lord on a much higher level. I recommend this book without
any hesitation.

Over the last several years I have observed the Lord doing
extraordinary things in and through the life and ministry of Jeff
Jansen. With his new book, The Furious Sound of Glory, Jeff
once again taps into God's blueprint for this day with accuracy
and relevance for the 21st century overcoming Army of God.
The spiritual significance of both light and sound have always
fascinated me, particularly during intervals of spiritual
outpouring and revival. Clearly, our realms of understanding
will go to much greater heights involving throne room activity
where the apostle John describes incredible displays of God's
nature and power. As the Scripture declares, "He that hath an
ear, let him hear what the Spirit is saying." The book that you
now hold in your hand will certainly help you in that lofty
endeavor.

My friend, Jeff Jansen, inspires us with yet another great book.


His passion for God's glory will stir your heart with a fresh
desire for the supernatural. An insightful work that is readable,
practicable, yet deeply rooted in the revelatory realm.
Absolutely, a must read!

In his new book, The Furious Sound of Glory, Jeff Jansen


gives an invitation to the body of Christ to prepare themselves
for what is coming in this season. We're in a time of equipping
and preparation for new realms of the supernatural. Jeff's vivid
insight will give you greater understanding of the times ahead.
I believe this book will be profitable to gain greater
understanding of what is coming from heaven to earth.

Many religious institutions have missed very real and valid


visitations by closing their doors to anything that challenges
their experience. We as Christians are also known to resist any
experience or theology that was not initiated within our group
or movement. It is also true that many of our past experiences
serve to keep us from embracing what God desires to do in our
future. Basically, we become so full of what God said, that we
can't hear what God is saying. And, we feel that we have an
obligation to God to resist anything that challenges the
sanctity of our present theology.... Well, prepare to be
challenged as you read this book by Jeff Jansen.
Ray Hughes

I believe that God is releasing a new sound in this generation


that carries revival fire and passionate intimacy. It comes in
music, prayer, preaching, and the prophetic but it is rooted in a
deep love for Jesus, the pursuit of the knowledge of God, and
radical holiness. You will enjoy this book by Jeff Jansen and I
pray it becomes a catalyst to releasing your own sound.
Jake Hamilton
Jesus Culture Artist

This amazing book is filled with incredible revelation that will


propel you into a greater understanding of the Kingdom of
God. It also parallels the powerful, miracle producing life of Jeff
Jansen and echoes the anointing of what is being released in
the earth today. Your life will change as you read this
phenomenal revelation!

BY MAHESH CHAVDA
A few years ago the congregation in Charlotte that Bonnie and
I pastor had outgrown our auditorium. We set up a large tent
on our property and started worshiping in this tabernacle. One
evening in the midst of more than a thousand people I felt led
to stand up and sing. The song came from 2 Corinthians 3:17-
18, “Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord
is there is Liberty, Liberty, Liberty.” Suddenly, in the middle of
the tent a glorious cloud with golden light appeared. People
rose up pointing to the cloud. It was an amazing manifestation
that is hard to describe in human language. It hovered over us
for more than thirty minutes, and a sense of awe came over all
of us. That cloudy Presence hovered not only in the tent, but
was visible above the tent, too.
I recall the previous time I had been completely overwhelmed
by this cloud of glory. Some years before at noonday in a
crowd of 30,000 people in Kinshasa, the Congo, that
manifestation resulted in the resurrection of a six-year-old boy
named Katshinyi. At the same time that cloud in Kinshasa
connected with my dying son, Aaron, born prematurely and
barely breathing in the ICU in South Florida, and healed him
completely. I knew it was the cloud of glory that made all the
difference. Since then, I have witnessed countless healings and
miracles over the years, and I always point to the cloud of
glory, the thick manifestation of the Holy Spirit, giving all
praise to our Lord and Master, Jesus Christ.
But how does this happen? There are few men I know who can
explain this wonderful mystery. But my friend Jeff Jansen is
one of them. He passionately loves the glory presence that
comes in the name of Jesus. If you want to relate to the
wonderful glory of Christ, this book is one of the precious
treasures that will help you come in harmony with the presence
of the glory.
Do you know that God sang creation into being? Do you know
how to come into alignment with the sound of glory? Do you
know how light and sound relate with God’s presence. I could
literally sit for days listening to someone who has insight into
this unique, glorious realm. In this hour, Jeff Jansen relates to
this realm like few others.
Now is the time for all believers to have a deeper revelation of
the glory and riches of the Lamb of God. According to Isaiah
60, in the last days we are to arise and shine with the glory of
the Lord. This is imperative so that the nations can come to the
brightness of the shining of the light, receiving salvation.
I have had wonderful times fellowshipping with Jeff and his
precious family. He is a humble man, completely enamored with
God’s glory. I love comparing notes with him. I can assure you
of this: He’s a man in harmony with this glory presence. I
believe this is a book you will come back to over and over.
Each time you do, you will glean more insight into the glory
realm.
This is a strategic hour in which God wants to pour out His
spirit of revival with signs and wonders in every nation. I
sincerely believe the key is the glory presence.
My prayer is God will use The Furious Sound of Glory to
assist every believer desiring to be used by God in the last
days. Stay hungry. Stay humble. And watch God’s glory do
mighty things.

CHAPTER 1
In The Be ginning God Sang

In The Chronicles of Narnia, by C.S. Lewis, Aslan the Lion


tells the story of creation to the Lord Adam and Lady Eve.
Narnia is amazing with its huge icy mountains, waterfalls, rivers
and giant forests. However, the power of the white witch kept
the land of Narnia and all its inhabitants frozen and asleep for a
long time. Many people had been turned to stone by the spell
of the white witch. Suddenly, Aslan roars. They wake up and
come back to life as Aslan releases his breath over them.
Instantly, the landscape is transformed by the sound of His
roar. Color invades and restores the hills and valleys and the
mountains spring to life once again revealing His true nature.
The sound of the roar of the Lion of the Tribe of Judah is being
released upon this generation. It will change and restore
everything it touches right down to the core structure or
subatomic level. Every generation from the beginning of time
also contained its own sound. Once released, the Roar of the
Lord shattered the opposition, unfroze the inhabitants of the
land, and turned hearts of stone into flesh and blood. That
sound created breakthrough, which enabled the transformation
of the regions in which they lived, revealing the intentions and
purposes of God. Now, in our time, a generation must arise and
wake up from its slumber to release the fresh new sound of
heaven. Even creation itself will respond to the sound of
heaven on earth with rumblings, quakings and shakings.
In the end, Aslan would lay his life down for the fallen sons of
Adam to restore them to their place as lords of creation, kings
of the earth. And as it was for Aslan and the inhabitants of
Narnia, so it is for us. It took the death of Jesus Christ, the One
True Heavenly King, to restore us to our rightful place as kings
and lords of the earth. It was for the joy that was set before
Him, that He endured the cross, knowing that on the other side
of the pain there would be you and I, the redeemed sons and
daughters of the Heavenly King. His intention is that the on
true “Heavenly King” (Jesus) would live through the many
kings on the earth and establish His reign of authority through
a family. So, in this final chapter of human history and on this
side of eternity, The Lion of the Tribe of Judah is roaring again,
unleashing the furious sound of heaven on the earth through
an end time army of God.
The final chapter of these events will be so terrible, so
incredible in the earth, that even the elements will shudder with
great shaking as angels and demons wage war in the heavenly
realm. Intercession will focus on the arrival and coming forth of
a Kingdom family who is filled with the sound of His roar. They
will have power and authority to manifest the Glory of God in
the Earth, breaking the curse over creation and releasing
healing in the nations, causing them to flourish once again in
the glorious freedom for which they were created.
Some would say this is too far reaching and are but visions of
grandeur! When in reality these scriptural truths are yet to be
apprehended and walked out by a Supernatural Church, the
“called out ones” or the “ecclesia.” This company of believers
will reach far beyond the normative mindsets of the day and
demonstrate the miraculous in ways not seen in church history.
Jesus Christ paid the ultimate price in blood through Calvary to
open the heavens and restore to us the Keys to the Kingdom.
He will reap the reward of His suffering.
Even now, the clash between heaven and earth is mounting.
Darkness is become increasingly dark and powerful as we draw
near to the end and towards the Great Revival. The church is
under pressure and is being squeezed to produce the sweet
wine of heaven. There are great pressures in the earth and
pressure in the heavens. Cosmic violence is beginning to spill
out upon the earth. Heaven is not for the faint of heart but is a
violent realm causing even the strongest to fear and tremble.
This heavenly fury will be poured out in these last days upon
an end time Army of God that has been prepared to carry it.
And this Army will unleash the Spirit of Revival in the nations
of the earth.
We must get ready for the unleashing of the furious sound of
Glory—the roar of power and love that transforms the earth.

The End Will Look Like the Beginning


Can you imagine what it must have been like in the beginning
of time, before the fall of Adam? It was a world that was
beautiful and existed in perfect harmony with God and man.
Can you imagine what it must have been like as the worlds
were being tethered together and creation was being fashioned
by the hand of God? What an awesome thing to think about.
I love to watch the History channel when I'm home, in
particular the shows about the earth’s formation and position
in the galaxy. Science is baffled by the galaxies and planetary
systems and how intricately it all works as a gigantic timing
mechanism spinning through space. All of it is so incredible
and wonderful that it simply baffles the mind. But how did it all
come into existence? Science has one theory, but Scripture tells
the truth. We know that Genesis 1:3 reads:
IN THE beginning God (prepared, formed,
fashioned, and) created the heavens and the
earth. The earth was without form and an
empty waste, and darkness was upon the
face of the very great deep. The Spirit of God
was moving (hovering, brooding) over the
face of the waters. And God said, Let there
be light; and there was light.
We see here that there is a formula for Creation. The first thing
we see is that in the beginning God prepared, formed,
fashioned, and created the heavens and the earth. The earth
had no form and was an “empty waste” with darkness upon the
face of the deep. There was something there before God spoke!
Some believe that the earth was literally in a place of being
“recreated” because Chaos was already in the world and that
there was a war over the territory of earth and a pre-Adamic
race of man that Satan had already corrupted. But because
there is not enough in Scripture to conclusively point in that
direction we must stick with what we do know. The earth was
there already but “had no form” and that “darkness was upon
the face of the deep.” There was no natural sun as of yet and
everything was in complete darkness.
The second thing we see is that the Spirit of God was moving,
hovering, and brooding over the face of the waters. The Holy
Spirit of God, like creative DNA, hovered over the face of the
waters as there was no land mass on this formless earth at this
point. The Holy Spirit is the creative nature and power of the
Godhead. He is seen here in Genesis 1:1-3 as an intricate
participant in the history of creation. He is moving, scanning,
brooding. 2 Chronicles 16:9 reads:
For the eyes of the Lord run to and fro
throughout the whole earth to show Himself
strong in behalf of those whose hearts are
blameless toward Him.
The Holy Spirit was scanning back and forth over the earth in
creation as well. He (the Holy Spirit) is what the Scripture calls
the Eyes of the Lord, The Seven Eyes, or Flames, or the Seven-
fold Holy Spirit of God in Revelation 1 that are constantly
scanning, testing, searching and hovering over creation.
Thirdly, we see that God spoke and said, “Let there be light,”
and there was light. Remember the sun and moon were not
created until the fourth day so there was no natural light
created yet. This light was the Light of the Glory of God.
Although light and sound are located on different frequencies,
they are the same thing. Scripture states that “God is Light”
and that everything that God has ever brought forth has come
from the creative “Voice of the Lord.” It was not the natural
light that came first, it was the Glory Light.
Sound and Light Spectrum
When the climate or conditions were right God “Spoke,” He
“Commanded,” He “Decreed” and it was established. Many
Hebrew scholars believe that when God spoke the worlds into
being in Genesis 1, that He actually sang creation into
existence. His Voice was a song that sang, “Let there be light”
and there was light. The day God chose to create light was the
day music began.
In Ray Hughes’ book Sound of Heaven, Symphony of Earth he
says, “Light and sound travel through the medium of waves.
Moving light waves are called electromagnetic waves, which
determine what type of light it is. As humans, we're only able to
see 3 percent of the entire light spectrum, and part of the 97
percent of invisible light is categorized as electromagnetic light.
Within electromagnetic light exists a range of wavelengths
called “radio waves.” Within this category of radio waves
exists an even smaller range of waves that humans can hear.
Essentially, we know that all these categories and forms of light
and sound exist within the same spectrum. So the first time God
said, “Let there be light,” He was also proclaiming the
beginning of sound and music.” [1]
Can you imagine what it would be like if you could hear God
singing? Remember that it was merely a spoken word that
brought the universe into existence. What would happen if
God lifted up his voice and not only spoke but sang! Perhaps a
new heaven and a new earth would be created. God says
something almost just to that effect in Isaiah 65:17-18,
Behold, I create a new heavens and a
new earth… I create Jerusalem to be
a rejoicing, and her people a joy.
When God spoke at the beginning, the heavens and the earth
were created. Perhaps at the end, the new heavens and the new
earth will be created when God exults over his people with loud
singing.
When I think of the voice of God singing, I hear the booming
of Niagara Falls mingled with the trickle of a mountain stream. I
hear the blast of Mt. St. Helens mingled with the sound of a
baby sleeping. I hear the power of an East Coast hurricane and
the gentle wind of a winter snow in Wisconsin. I can hear the
unimaginable roar of the sun 865,000 miles thick, one million
three hundred thousand times bigger than the earth, and
nothing but fire… 1,000,000 degrees centigrade on the cooler
surface of the corona. And I also hear this unimaginable roar
mingled with the tender, warm crackling of the living room logs
on a cozy winter’s night.
And when I hear this singing I stand dumbfounded, staggered,
speechless that He is singing over me. He is rejoicing over my
good with all his heart and with all his soul (see Jer. 32:41)!

A Supernatural Doorway Called Eden


Can you imagine what the Garden must have looked like? How
the angels and heavenly beings must have interacted with
Adam and Eve in a cosmic dance between the two worlds?
Both the supernatural realm of Glory and the natural realm were
equally and harmoniously working together in one fluid
motion. The Kingdom of heaven had now invaded the territory
of earth and became the Kingdom of God. It was literally on
earth as it is in heaven. The Scriptures give helpful insights
into what this must have looked like, and when the dots are
connected a beautiful picture of heaven on earth begins to
emerge. The Bible says in Genesis 2:8:
And the Lord God planted a garden toward
the east, in Eden [delight]; and there He put
the man whom He had formed (framed,
constituted).
It means that the Lord God planted a garden toward the east,
“In Eden.” It does not say that the Lord God planted the
Garden of Eden, but rather that Eden was a place in the east
where the Lord God planted a garden. I believe Eden was a
place where the supernatural world, the Glory realm, met and
was joined with the physical territory of earth. Through Eden's
doorway flowed the Glory of God. Angels came through that
door as well as everything Adam needed. Eden joined the two
worlds in such a way that they literally became one. Not only
did heaven flow through that passageway called Eden, but
Adam also had access to pass from the physical realm of earth
into the spirit realm. It was a two way street. Can you see the
ebb and flow? How beautiful it must have been. How glorious
this place called earth was. All of creation functioned at its full
capacity and was fruitful in every way.
Creation listened to Adam when he spoke and obeyed his
every word. The earth flourished under the loving command of
Adam as God intended it to be. Adam’s job was to make the
physical territory of earth look like heaven in every way. There
was a constant flow of heaven pouring through Eden to make
this reality. The Light of the Glory of God moved through that
sphere, out of the supernatural and into the natural. Genesis
2:10 tells us:
Now a river went out of Eden to water the
garden; and from there it divided and
became four [river] heads.
It says that there was a river that went out or flowed out of
Eden and it watered the garden, and after it watered the garden,
it split into four river heads and went into the earth. There was
a river that flowed out of the supernatural and became a
physical river that then watered the garden. Interesting! Where
did this river come from? Let’s look at the end of the book in
Revelation 22:1-2 for the answer.
Then He showed me the river whose waters
give life, sparkling like crystal, flowing out
from the throne of God and of the Lamb
through the middle of the broadway of the
city; also, on either side of the river was the
tree of life with its twelve varieties of fruit,
yielding each month its fresh crop; and the
leaves of the tree were for the healing and
the restoration of the nations.
I find it interesting that in the beginning of the Word, in
Genesis, we see a river that flows out of Eden and into the
physical that waters the garden. Then, at the end of the Word,
in Revelation’s last chapter, after all is finished, we see this
same river flowing out of the throne and of the Lamb. The
Supernatural River of God that flows in Revelation is the same
supernatural River that flows through Eden's door in Genesis.
What does that river do? Well the first thing it did was water
the Tree of Life, which Adam was commanded to eat from so he
would live forever. The first instruction Adam received from
the Lord God was how he was to eat. He was to eat from the
Tree of Life and not from the tree of the knowledge of good
and evil. We don't know how long Adam was actually living on
the earth before the fall, but we can probably conclude that he
had been there for a long time. Adam and Eve ate from the Tree
of Life and lived! They were designed to live forever in that
state of being. It says that the river was a river whose waters
“give life.” It was an eternal water, a life-giving water that
flowed out from the throne of the Lamb. Jesus said in John 7:37
that if we would come to Him, out of our innermost being
would flow rivers of living water!
This water is the Spirit of God; a Living Water that gives life.
This River flowed out of heaven, through Eden's door and
watered the garden that was in Eden where Adam was. Then it
went into the rest of the earth. This is a healing, restorative
water that brings healing to the nations. Everything this River
touches causes life to spring forth.
Can you begin to see what this must have looked like? Can you
hear the roar of the sound of that River as it was pouring
through Eden's door? How wonderful it must have been to
witness all of heaven passing through that place. Adam and
Eve were fully engaged in both worlds. Adam was Earth’s first
Ambassador and Governor and all was in order.

All of Creation Sings


All of creation is alive and is designed by God to praise Him.
This includes the heavens, the sun, the moon, the stars and all
created things; those with breath and those without, all created
to Praise God.
In science we understand how stars vibrate and give off sound
waves, but we can't hear them until these waves enter our
atmosphere and have something denser than the vacuum of
space to travel through. Creation is alive.
Praise Him, sun and moon, praise Him, all
you stars of light!
Praise Him, you highest heavens and you
waters above the heavens!
Let them praise the name of the Lord, for He
commanded and they were created.
He also established them forever and ever;
He made a decree, which shall not pass
away [He fixed their bounds which cannot
be passed over].
Praise the Lord from the earth, you sea
monsters and all deeps!
You lightning, hail, fog, and frost, you
stormy wind fulfilling His orders!
Mountains and all hills, fruitful trees and all
cedars!
Beasts and all cattle, creeping things and
flying birds!
(Ps. 148).
Creation is alive and sings praises to God. Nature is a praise
song that at times is sweet and melodious and at other times
fast and furious in tempo. All of it a song of love we get to
listen to and watch as it unfolds in color, sound and song.
Human beings are different. If mankind will not, or cannot
recognize and praise God in a season of visitation, then nature
itself cannot help but cry out and release its song of praise to
Him. This happened with Jesus as He was approaching
Jerusalem at the Mount of Olives:
As He was approaching [the city], at the
descent of the Mount of Olives, the whole
crowd of the disciples began to rejoice and
to praise God [extolling Him exultantly
and] loudly for all the mighty miracles and
works of power that they had witnessed,
crying, “Blessed (celebrated with praises) is
the King Who comes in the name of the Lord!
Peace in heaven [freedom there from all the
distresses that are experienced as the result
of sin] and Glory (majesty and splendor) in
the highest [heaven]!”And some of the
Pharisees from the throng said to Jesus,
“Teacher, reprove Your disciples!” He
replied, “I tell you that if these keep silent,
the very stones will cry out.” (Luke 19:37-40).
Let everything that has breath and every
breath of life praise the Lord! Praise the
Lord! (Hallelujah!) (Ps. 150:6).
Think about it…. Stars singing. Stones crying out. Creation
groaning. Everything that draws breath. It seems that
everything in creation glorifies and praises God. The innate
desire to praise and worship was instilled in us long before we
were born. The Song of the Lord still seeks to be released
through us—sometimes as a roar of love that releases power, a
furious sound of spiritual warfare, a groaning of intercession,
and often, a song of praise.
Through Him, therefore, let us constantly
and at all times offer up to God a sacrifice of
praise, which is the fruit of lips that
thankfully acknowledge and confess and
glorify His name. (Heb. 13:15).

Angels and Creation Sing


Note also that in Revelation 5:12, that even the angels sing
praises to Christ, despite the fact that they don't need a Savior
(also note that their singing is not half-hearted; they sang with
a loud voice). The salvation of mankind is the greatest wonder
and plan of the ages. Angels sing of it even though they
cannot know the depths of the plan and fully fathom its results
as we do.
It was then disclosed to them that the
services they were rendering were not meant
for themselves and their period of time, but
for you. [It is these very] things which have
now already been made known plainly to
you by those who preached the good news
(the Gospel) to you by the [same] Holy
Spirit sent from heaven. Into these things
[the very] angels long to look! (1 Peter 1:12)
Still, they long to know more and for what they do know they
praise the Lord Jesus Christ. 1 Peter 1:13 goes on to present
what amounts to a surprise for many people: “Every created
thing” sings praises to the Savior for His work and its results.
While the entire creation was created perfect, since man's sin
all creation has suffered from the results (see Rom. 8:20-21).
These events recorded here underline the importance of the
Scriptural teaching of creation in Genesis. The reason for this
praise on the part of the entire creation is because it, too, will
be delivered from the bondage of the results of our sin through
the work of Christ. Without the first three chapters of Genesis
these comments here make no sense, a fact that also supports
the internal integrity of the Bible from beginning to end.
One might be tempted to understand the statement that the
entire creation praises God in a figurative manner. But that
would be a judgment made on the basis of ignorance. First of
all, the entire creation praises God in that it shows forth His
handiwork:
For since the creation of the world His
invisible nature and attributes, that is, His
eternal power and divinity, have been made
intelligible and clearly discernible in and
through the things that have been made (His
handiworks). So [men] are without excuse
(Rom. 1:20).
But, as all praise of God must be active as well as passive, we
would also expect active praise of God in the creation, too.
There is the song of the birds, beautiful to hear, and each bird
has its own unique way to glorify its Creator in praise. Modern
science has also discovered that just like the land creatures,
the sea creatures, too, each have their own unique voices,
some of which are very clearly musical. The eerie, yet glorious
song of the whale is fascinating even for us humans to hear.
And even the inanimate part of creation, even the heavens
themselves, offer song as Psalm 148 reveals.
Radio astronomy has learned that the heavens are filled with
stars, which are created to give off radio signals, signals which,
when received by a radio, produce an incredible music, similar
to the song of the whale. Even unbelieving men have noted
these sounds from unexpected parts of creation. They have
remarked about the amazing musical qualities of these sounds
—sounds of creation itself joining with believers and angels in
praise of the One who has delivered us from sin, death, and the
devil!

The Reality of a Singing God


I want to come back to the idea of the reality of a singing God.
Many scholars believe God sang the worlds into existence. If
this is true, then book Hebrews 1:1-3 could have been stated
something like this:
Long ago God sang to our ancestors in
many and varied songs of the Prophets, but
in these last day he has sung to us by His
very Song through whom He has created the
ages. The song is the echo of God’s Glory
and the exact melody of God’s very being,
and God sustains all things by the Melody
or Vibration of His Powerful Song….”
Again with this in mind, the beginning of the book of John
would have sounded a little something like this:
In the beginning (before all time) was the Song (Christ),
and the Song was with God, and
Song was God Himself. All things were made and came into
existence through the
Song; and without Him was not even one thing made that
has come into being.
The psalms are always meant to be sung or at least recited as
poetry. [2] Today the psalm proclaims:
Sing unto God a new song… make a joyful
noise to the Lord, all the earth; break forth
into joyous song and sing praises; Sing
praises to the Lord with the lyre, with the
sound of melody, with trumpets and the
sound of the horn, make a joyful noise before
the King, the Lord. (Ps. 98:1-9)
St.
Augustine states, “When we sing, we are echoing the divine
melody that still sounds throughout the cosmos. When we
sing, Saint Augustine said, we pray twice.”
St Augustine
God is speaking to us not just in words and reason but through
the music of the heart and the universe. As we listen and sing,
we become good tuning forks that resonate with the
supernatural melody we hear. The angels hear this song, and
as we sing we become in tune with the angelic realm and
ourselves and harmonize into a proper vibration along with
them. Some would say this sounds “New Age.” Call it what
you will. What I'm communicating to you are Kingdom truths
that I have personally put into practice in my life and ministry
and have seen firsthand how they manifest raw supernatural
power in the realm of miracles that bring the Glory of God from
the unseen realm with substance. I have received countless
testimonies from people in my meetings that as we simply
released a shout of praise to God, tumors would dissolve,
backs were healed, ears were opened, etc. It may sound foreign
to you, but these are the truths the last-days church will need
to embrace in order to see heaven come with all of its fury!
And where do we hear the song? First of all, in the created
world, which is the first song that God has sung; the cosmos is
the music of the spheres that has been sung by God. And as
God the singer has sung the song through all eternity, a song
that we call the Word or Son of God, so is the Voice of Christ
vibrating in the universe. Hebrews 1:2-3 says, “Through the
Son [Song]… He has also created… the ages of time… and
again God sustains all things by His powerful [Song]”
(emphasis mine).
The Gospel of John 1:3 tells us that all things came into being
through Him, and without Him not one thing came into being.
There is only one God. There is only one Song. Creation and
Redemption are both verses of God’s song. The Incarnation of
Jesus Christ reinforces the song of creation, and all of many
along with creation are lifted up into the Presence of the divine
through the resounding song of the Living Word as He sings.
Finally, God’s song comes around us and invites us to witness
the secrets of both the seen and unseen realm, and attest that
creation is made for truth and not denial, for praise and not
self-importance. When we sing, we join with the angels
announcing tidings of goods news to all the earth, and bring
the reality and realm of the Glory of God and life that vibrates
with supernatural life in both arenas.
String theory and vibrating energy is probably one of the most
powerful supports to the theory that God sang the worlds into
being— and it is my personal belief that He did. [3]

All Sound Matter is Vibrating Energy


C. S. Lewis and J. R. R. Tolkien must have thought that the idea
of a Singing God was relevant. They spent time depicting this
truth in their magnificent writings—The Chronicles of Narnia
and The Silmarillion. The Apache and Cherokee Indians have
incredibly intriguing tales of the singing creator god in their
literature. In fact, folk writings from almost every culture
contain such references to the idea of song as a possible—or
even probable—tool used in the creation of the worlds. These
ideas become viable because of their repetitions in almost
every body of folk literature.
As a musician and writer, when I heard Brian Greene lecturing
on public TV about “string theory”, which brings these truths
to light that all matter, reduced to its smallest particles, is
nothing more than “vibrating strings of energy,” I couldn't help
but think of Jesus singing creation into being.
Taken from my book Glory Rising: “Jesus, as the Word,
created all things. In this passage, the Greek word for “Word”
is logos. Logos can also be interpreted into the English word
“matter.” So we can say: In the beginning was the “Word,”
and the “Word” was with God, and the “Word” was God…”
or “In the beginning was the “Matter,” and the “Matter” was
with God, and the “Matter” was God!” (John 1:1, emphasis
mine).” [4]
The spoken Word is Matter that creates substance. Therefore,
we can see that words spoken in a faith-decree, come out as
energized matter that materializes in the natural-realm. As we
speak faith-decrees, when the Glory is thick in any place
creative matter appears. Just recently I was ministering in
Detroit doing five nights of a live televised Healing in America
Tour. On the second night after I had preached a message on
Faith that releases creative miracles, there was a man there who
was born deaf in his right ear. He later testified that the doctors
said he was born with his ear undeveloped and that he had
none of the mechanics there for him to physically hear. Each
night in the healing crusade we would release a “Shout of the
Lord” that would bring the Glory of God into the room. All are
encouraged to shout to the Lord for their miracles and believe
for God to release miracles from His Presence.
As always, there are many that come to the front to testify of
both healings and miracles that manifest from heaven. This
man came forward and testified that in the “Shout” God opened
his ear. He had no mechanics according to the doctors—he
had never heard out of that ear—but in the Glory that night,
the spoken Word was released that came out as energized
matter in the room and materialized in the natural-realm and
recreated this man’s ear brand new! This has happened over
and over around the world. I could fill the rest of the pages of
this book with testimonies of accounts like this. The Word
spoken in faith comes out as ENERGIZED MATTER that
creates and recreates body parts. Hallelujah!

Matter is a Frequency Spoken by Jesus


When God spoke the worlds into being all the frequencies of
His Glory became manifest and the universe came into being!
David Van Koevering, who helped in creating the Moog
synthesizer and is a well known physics and revelatory teacher
says, “…from the tiniest vibrating superstring that is causing
or SINGING the atoms into being and that make up the table
of 103 elements, all the way through everything the Hubble
telescope sees, are the vibrating frequencies of Jesus' voice.”
[5]
For by Him all things were created,
both in the heavens and on earth,
visible and invisible, whether
thrones or dominions or rulers or
authorities… He is before all
things, and in Him all things hold
together (Col. 1:16-17).
The phrase He is before all things means that He is outside of
our time. Jesus said to John the Revelator that He was and is
the Alpha (beginning) and Omega (ending). Jesus is outside
our concept of time in His eternal now and is causing all things
to be.
Song Matter has Memory
When we understand by the spoken Word that we are being
recreated in Christ now by His singing our song frequency, our
intimacy with Him will change. His song of creation was not
something He did 16 billion years ago. He is causing you to be
now!
Hebrews 11:1 says that faith is substance. It is the invisible
substance from which your physical world was and is being
created by Jesus Christ. Annette Capps said, “God used faith
substance and word energy to create the universe. He spoke
and the vibration (sound) of His words released (caused) the
substance that became the stars and planets.”
When we understand that matter has memory and that every
good or evil action, word, or thought is recorded, it is our
responsibility to remove, purge, and release evil memory.
Matter has memory, and you can change everything that has
been recorded by what you speak and observe, by the words
you declare, or by the curses you remove and release in the
name of Jesus. You can create protected places by anointing
with oil and speaking blessings with your words of faith.
By faith we understand that the
worlds were prepared by the word
of God, so that what is seen was not
made out of things which are
visible (Heb. 11:3).
The worlds were framed by God’s Word—the seen being
brought into existence from the unseen. Likewise, we can call
matter from the unseen realm into the visible realm.
You have heard [these things
foretold], now you see this
fulfillment. And will you not bear
witness to it? I show you specified
new things from this time forth, even
hidden things [kept in reserve]
which you have not known. They
are created now [called into being
by the prophetic word], and not
long ago; and before today you
have never heard of them, lest you
should say, Behold, I knew them (Is.
48:6-7, emphasis mine).
By our spoken words, we can decree a thing, and it will come to
pass!
You shall also decide and decree a thing, and it shall be
established for you; and the light
(of God's favor) shall shine upon your ways (Job 22:28).

Music is the Language of the Spirit


Dr. Jeremy Begbie, theologian, professional musician has
encapsulated in one statement the essence of the quest that
musicians have been on for centuries. He wrote, “It is clear that
music is one of the most powerful communicative media we
have, and the depth of how it communicates and what it
communicates we are just beginning to understand.”
Personally, I believe music is the language of the Spirit and is
understood by both the seen and unseen realm. It is a
universal language that transcends boundaries and unites the
heart of God with all of Creation. Angels move in the power,
radiance and Light that is produced from music as it flows
through the heart of mankind and every created being. Music
is the language of the Spirit and has the power to not just
influence the world, but to forever change it. Even the secular
Greek Philosopher Plato wrote:
Music gives soul to the Universe, Wings to the Mind, Flight
to the
Imagination and Life to everything. - Plato
Plato
Every proton, neutron and atom is spinning with life, light and
vibrating energy from the Voice of the Lord of creation.
Because music is spirit language it’s easy to connect the idea
of a singing God. There is a great deal of support for this idea
in the fields of mathematics, theology, language and science.
Much is being written and debated over the subject of Creation
at this point in time, and I believe that the idea of God being a
singing God figures in profoundly.

The Singing River


Muscle Shoals, Alabama
Most every student of Alabama history and geography learns
about the State’s beautiful Tennessee River, which flows
generally east-to-west across North Alabama. The waters that
ultimately become the Tennessee River have their headwaters
in the springs and streams of the Appalachian Mountains. The
area along the river in Alabama was home to several of the
historical Native American tribes, each of which had their own
name for the river or particular sections of it. These included
the Cherokee, Chickasaw, Shawnee, Creek and Yuchi tribes.
According to Alabama historian William L. McDonald, the
Cherokee Indians called the river “The Singing River” because
these flowing waters sounded to them like a woman singing. In
times of low water, she sang sweetly. But when the river was
raging, she sounded loud and angry.
Whether it is fact or fabrication, the Legend of the Singing
River is a beautiful story and description of the early Muscle
Shoals. There is little doubt that in the region of Muscle
Shoals, Alabama there is a sound implanted in the physical and
spiritual DNA that is heavenly and purposed by God for
heavens sound to be captured and released. Nashville,
Tennessee has an equally popular and distinct purpose and
sound and similar calling as well. There is something purposed
by God for these regions that will play a part in releasing a
sound for last days revival that will impact the world. The
world and the secular recording industry has picked up on the
sounds of these regions, but only as a shadow of what is to
come!
In Muscle Shoals, a lone musician sits by the edge of the
Singing River where it's flowing pace and lush, green
surroundings inspire him to write a song. He is awaiting his
recording session in the famous studio located behind him.
Julian Lennon walks back to the Sheffield, Alabama studio and
goes on to record his melodic 1984 debut album, “Valotte” that
would eventually go platinum. Lennon is just one of the
celebrated musicians to record in the legendary Muscle Shoals
Sound Studio. Bob Dylan, The Rolling Stones, Jimmy Buffet,
Bob Segar, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Paul Simon and Rod Stewart are
among the numerous musicians who have all recorded albums
and tracks in this venerated studio that opened in 1969 on 3614
Jackson Highway.
Muscle Shoals is known for recording many hit songs from the
1960s through today at FAME Studios, where Aretha Franklin
recorded, and Muscle Shoals Sound Studio which developed
work for Bob Dylan, Paul Simon and countless others. Both
FAME Studios and Muscle Shoals Sound Studios are still in
operation in the city. Recordings from Rod Stewart, Aretha
Franklin, Eric Clapton, Lynyrd Skynyrd and The Allman
Brothers, recent hit songs such as "Before He Cheats" by
Carrie Underwood and "I Loved Her First" by Heartland
continue the city's musical legacy. George Michael recorded an
early, unreleased version of "Careless Whisper" with Jerry
Wexler in Muscle Shoals in 1983.
Many Los Angeles, California recording studios have tried to
copy the sound that comes from muscle shoals, yet it cannot
be duplicated there because the sound arises from only one,
specific region. And nature sounds cannot be cloned by digital
instruments. [6]

The Blue Stones of Wales


As we look at history and folklore, most people refer to the
Druids as a demonized group of people bent on sorcery and
witchcraft, and no doubt many were. But it is also important to
understand that many of the so-called “Druids” of the day
were nothing more than Welsh clans that were connected to
the Lord through creation. They were a type of mystic desert
people that communed with the Lord and experienced
incredible revelations from the Lord of creation.
The land of Wales is known to many as the “Center of the
Cosmos” because of the Blue stones of Wales that are found
in the Preseli Mountains. These desert people, or Druids,
moved the massive tonnage of Blue Stones from Wales to the
south of England some 250 miles because of their Vibrating and
healing properties. All stones vibrate, but these stones, when
placed in the proper sequence and order, vibrate at another
dimension creating a centrifugal harmony that is measured far
beyond normal. These vibrating stones of Wales were known
to bring the body, soul and spirit of an individual into
alignment and not just heighten the spiritual state of an
individual as they came in contact with them. They brought the
body into harmony to the degree that many were healed of
physical ailments and diseases—instantly! These early Welsh
clans were known as early “desert fathers” that had incredible
encounters with the Lord Jesus Christ as well as angelic
encounters. The Roman Catholic Church branded them as a
dark people because of their non-compliance with the
organized church and banned them as a means to control them
and dampen the effect of their pure nature. This has been the
Mode of Operation of many of the dealings with the Roman
Catholic Church with those that would not conform from the
Jansenists, Huguenots and others as depicted in history.
Granted not all were saints as in all religions, however on the
same note we cannot assume that all were bad as in the case of
the non-compliant Welsh and English Desert Fathers of the
13th-19th centuries.

Creation Responds to the Voice of Love


In every atom there is life and light. This is important to know
when talking about how creation came about. When God
created the universe, He breathed the galaxies out, or sang
them out of His imagination. The newly created atoms were all
spinning harmoniously according to their own vibration and
created order; each in their own unique way. When Adam fell
from the Glory of God, the result was so dramatic in the natural
that it shifted the world on its axis. The atoms were literally
knocked out of rhythm from their harmonious spin. Everything
was affected at the sub atomic level. When this happened it
opened the door for Satan to corrupt and alter things
genetically. And not just genetically, but by a counter
harmony… the voice of disharmony. This disharmony works
against the original to bring it out of balance eventually
breaking down the original that would ultimately bring forth
death. But the atoms were preprogrammed to respond to the
voice of love. So, if we have love emanating and harmonizing
out from us, the atoms, protons, neutrons can feel us and will
respond to heaven’s tuning fork vibrating from us. Atoms were
birthed from love and as created particles they feel love and
respond to it. Animals feel it… tree’s feel it… plants feel it. The
atoms feel it and they will cooperate with you and form into
whatever you desire in love because they recognize our
sonship position as being sons and daughters of the Creator
and know that we have dominion over this physical world.
What you are emanating leaves a trail and affects everything
around you. It affects the physical creation, the animal
creation, and every created being. If you come home with a bad
attitude, without even opening your mouth, the first to tune
into your attitude are your pets. Creation knows this because it
is sensitized to love.
Now Paul gives us a nudge in the right direction—out of
vibrating with negative emotion he promises to show us a more
excellent way (see 1 Cor. 12:31), the way of love.
When the complete and perfect (total)
comes, the incomplete and imperfect will
vanish away (1 Cor. 13:10).
When love comes we will have a more excellent and perfect
way and all of creation will respond to love. Then we will have
complete cooperation with creation and it will respond
perfectly in the way of love. We know that creation was
subjected to man and is waiting for man to walk in the way of
love that will lift the curse that has been placed upon it.
For (even the whole) creation (all nature)
waits expectantly and longs earnestly for
God’s sons to be made known (waits for the
revealing, the disclosing of their sonship) to
be made perfect in love that will change the
order of things. Then... that nature
(creation) itself will be set free from its
bondage to decay and corruption (and gain
an entrance) into the glorious freedom of
(and by) God’s children (Rom. 8:19, 21).
Love is the key that creation will respond to and heaven will
work with to unleash unlimited power and authority. This is the
season for unprecedented miracles signs and wonders. This is
the season of the love feasts of God.
CHAPTER 2

Unleashing the Furious Sound of Heaven

Radical Anointings
Several years ago I was ministering in a meeting in Plymouth,
Michigan when something happened that caused me to realize
the need for a consistent flow of heaven’s power in my
ministry. I had just finished preaching and stood up to release
miracles into the room by faith decree. I always begin by
thanking God for every miracle that will take place and giving
Him all the Glory for everything that takes place. The Glory
Presence came into the auditorium so sweet that night. People,
by faith, began to claim and receive their healing and, as usual,
began to come forward to testify. As people were lining up on
both sides of me, I noticed an elderly, black woman get up from
her front row seat and begin to approach me. I thought to
myself, “Oh, Oh… here she comes… this woman is serious
about something!” She yelled out at me with a loud voice:
“Man of God, my left eye is scheduled to be taken out by the
doctor the day after tomorrow. He said that all the nerve
endings are dead in there and that the best thing to do would
be to surgically remove it and replace it with a glass eye to
keep from infection. I heard about these here meetings from a
friend of mine and told myself they are not going to take my
eye. I was born with that eye and I'll meet Jesus with that eye.
I decided then that I was gonna go down to the meeting and
get my miracle and that’s the way it’s going to be.”
As she was speaking to me all could hear her plight. I could see
that her right eye was looking directly at me and that her left
eye was looking straight at the floor and unresponsive. As I
approached the woman I was praying in the Spirit saying,
“Lord, You need to do something… this woman won't take no
for an answer!” As I reached her I said, “Then take your
miracle NOW! BAM!!” and gently smacked her on the head.
She crumbled to the floor in a heap, shaking under the power of
God. I began to take testimonies from others who had received
healing in the Presence of the Lord. A few moments later I saw
the woman struggling to get to her feet. When she finally did
she yelled at me again and said, “I told you I'm not leaving here
until I get my miracle.” As she did I noticed that both of her
eyes were looking directly at me now, but she still could not
see. So I ran over to her again and said, “Then take your
miracle NOW!! BAM… BAM!!” and smacked her on the head
again. Again she crumbled to the ground under the power of
the Holy Ghost and I continued taking testimonies and
thanking God for the miracle that was happening in the woman.
A few moments later she was struggling to get up again, and
this time when she did she let out a scream for all to hear and
said, “Thank you Jesus I can see!” God had completely
recreated that dead eye into a new eyeball. She danced and
praised God all night long.
After seeing that sudden moment of divine intervention come
and heal that woman, I remember telling the Lord that I needed
an increase in power. I felt so unprepared for that kind of
demand, but knew it was the beginning of a demand I would
place on heaven for an increase in miracle power.
We are in a season of the release of radical new anointings that
bring with it great opportunities for spiritual advancement into
the supernatural. We have fully crossed over the threshold in
God’s timeline and the Glory of God is being revealed with
fresh power and new demonstrations of the miraculous. It
seems like the whole earth is groaning to see the “suddenlies”
of God. Many around the world are desperate a new move of
God, and the Lord promises to fill all those who hunger and
thirst for Him. Those who seek the new in this season will find
the new, but we must rise into these higher levels of the Glory
of God. Paul and Silas were examples in the early church of
what takes place when the suddenlies of God come to earth.

The Suddenlies of God


Paul and Silas had been unjustly arrested. Because they had
cast a spirit of divination out of a girl, the local Philippian
authorities beat them and then threw them into the inner
dungeon deep inside the prison. However, their crisis turned
into an opportunity to experience a “suddenly” of God—a
moment of divine intervention that instantly changes a
situation.
And when they had laid many stripes upon
them, they cast them into prison, charging
the jailor to keep them safely: Who, having
received such a charge, thrust them into the
inner prison, and made their feet fast in the
stocks. And at midnight Paul and Silas
prayed, and sang praises unto God: and the
prisoners heard them” (Acts 16:23-25).
Besides the trauma of the severe beating, they were fastened in
shackles that clamped their arms and legs in an immobile
position, causing cramps and loss of circulation. The
atmosphere was depressing. According to the standards of
that day, a prison resembled more of a dungeon; a dark, damp,
stench-ridden place, with no facility for waste or comforts of
any kind.
Yet, in spite of the throbbing pain in their bodies and the
disheartening atmosphere, Acts 16:23-26 gives us a clue as to
what these men did that ushered in the sudden intervention of
heaven. At midnight Paul and Silas were heard praying and
singing praises to God! What a strange sound this must have
been to the other prisoners who were used to only hearing the
groans or cursing of those who had been beaten. They must
have been thinking, “Those stupid Christians. Where is your
God now? Doesn't He have the power to save you from you
situation? And what good does it do to sing?” They were
about to find out that these two followers of Christ could sing
their way to freedom as their praises tapped into the power of
God.
And suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that
the foundations of the prison were shaken: and
immediately all the doors were opened, and
everyone’s bands were loosed.”
What caused this mighty discharge of power? The high praises
of God vibrating through the atmosphere.
High Praise Unleashes the Presence & Power
of God
Paul and Silas knew how to capture the attention of heaven.
They knew the power of thanksgiving and understood that
High praise was the key to lifting their hearts above their
situation so they could enter into God’s presence and power.
Not only did their shackles fall off, but everyone's shackles fell
off. Their praises had the power of breakthrough to set
everyone free within earshot!
Not everyone understands how to get the breakthrough, but
Paul and Silas modeled it for us. In this generation there is
coming a revelation and a release of the Spirit of Isaiah 61 that
will result in people being set from every kind of life controlling
situation and captivity.
The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me,
because the Lord has anointed and qualified
me to preach the Gospel of good tidings to
the meek, the poor, and afflicted; He has sent
me to bind up and heal the brokenhearted,
to proclaim liberty to the [physical and
spiritual] captives and the opening of the
prison and of the eyes to those who are
bound.
(Isa. 61:1)
Only a few know how to get the breakthrough, but when it
comes, everybody's shackles fall off! God is releasing His
power through a praising company that even the elements will
respond to. The praise and thanksgiving of Paul and Silas
reached a crescendo in the atmosphere where heaven
responded with the “suddenlies” of God. The earth quaked,
power was released from heaven, and all were set free.
We will see whole cities and regions overcome with this kind of
atmospheric power as the saints of God release the high
praises of God. The earth will respond to the resonance of the
release of the Glory of God through the believers upon the
earth and it will shake nations.
Psalms 22:3 says that God inhabits the praises of His people. In
other words, God “dwells” or actually lives in the atmosphere
of His praise. When the Praises go up, the Glory comes down.
This means that praise is not merely a reaction from coming
into His presence—but rather praise is a vehicle of faith that
releases the presence and power of God! You release praise
and it opens up heaven and brings the Glory of God down.
Praise is an action exercised by faith, and when released by the
believer toward God is draws heaven to earth around the
individual and supernaturally changes the environment. Praise
is the “gate” which allows us to enter His Glory. King David
explained this principle to us when he wrote: Enter into his
gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be
thankful unto him, and bless his name (Ps. 100:4).
Jesus said that His presence will inhabit the gathering of
believers who congregate in His name: For where two or three
are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of
them (Matt. 18:20).
A “gathering in His name” means that Jesus must be the focus
of the assembly. He must be the One preached about, sung
about—the one praised and worshiped. Not only is Jesus the
central focus of praise, but He stands in the midst of His
brothers in the worshipping congregation and sings along with
us in praise to the Father!
For both He Who sanctifies [making men holy] and those
who are sanctified all have one [Father]. For this reason He
is not ashamed to call them brethren; For He says, I will
declare Your [the Father's] name to My brethren; in the midst
of the [worshiping] congregation I will sing hymns of praise
to You (Heb. 2:11-13).
Think about that! Jesus calls us His brothers and when we
worship the Father in Spirit and in Truth, He is standing in the
middle of us singing songs of Praise—along with His brothers
—to the Father. He is not ashamed to call us brothers… so we
should not be ashamed to call Him brother. We both have the
same Father!

A Mighty Shout in Heaven


Paul and Silas understood what it took in order to get the
breakthrough in their situation so that everyone in the jail
benefited as well. Today there is a shift taking place in the
church that will focus on Jesus Christ as the Lion of the Tribe
of Judah. His roar will be heard and felt as a mighty vibration in
the earth as it flows through an end-time army of God. This
vibration of the Spirit will be recognized by every living thing
on the earth as well as the rest of creation. Did you notice the
residual effect of the praise and thanksgiving of Paul and Silas
resulted in an earthquake? Creation responded with an “Amen”
as these two sons of the Kingdom were harmonizing with the
will of heaven! A mighty vibration, or shaking, was released
from the Throne Room resulting in an earthy quaking, and
creation was moved.
AFTER THIS I heard what sounded like a
mighty shout of a great crowd in heaven,
exclaiming, Hallelujah (praise the Lord)!
Salvation and glory (splendor and majesty)
and power (dominion and authority)
[belong] to our God! And again they
shouted, Hallelujah (praise the Lord)! After
that I heard what sounded like the shout of
a vast throng, like the boom of many
pounding waves, and like the roar of terrific
and mighty peals of thunder, exclaiming,
Hallelujah (praise the Lord)! For now the
Lord our God the Omnipotent (the All-
Ruler) reigns! Let us rejoice and shout for
joy [exulting and triumphant]! Let us
celebrate and ascribe to Him glory and
honor, for the marriage of the Lamb [at last]
has come, and His bride has prepared
herself (Revelation 19:1, 3, 6-7, emphasis
mine).
Revelation 19:6 refers to the “boom or sound of many
pounding waves” and of “ROAR of terrific and mighty peals of
thunder” as a sound of corporate worship in heaven crying
“HALLELUJAH!” In this season of time the Body of Christ
must learn how to synchronize earth with heaven. The best
way to do this is simply do what heaven is doing on the earth.
According to Revelation 19 there is a vast throng in heaven
too large to be counted that releases a “Mighty Shout” and
exclaims, “Hallelujah.” As this is done repeatedly in heaven it
reaches a peak in the Throne Room and it sounds like a “Roar.”
Out from the throne came flashes of
lightning and rumblings and peals of
thunder, and in front of the throne seven
blazing torches burned, which are the seven
Spirits of God [the sevenfold Holy Spirit]
(Rev. 4:5).
According to the Scriptures, it appears that the Throne Room
is a violent, noisy, powerful place where flashes of lightning
and rumblings are accompanied by clashes of thunder and the
terrific roar of multitudes praising and shouting “Hallelujah!”
Heaven is not for the faint of heart. It is a place of great dread
and power! This heavenly rage is what was released when Paul
and Silas synchronized heaven and earth. This power was
released with such fury that every chain was broken and the
earth resounded with the same quaking that was in heaven.
I'm telling you I've been in meetings around the world where
the greatest of miracles that have taken place were in the High
Praise of God. No man can do by the working of a gift what
God will do when He releases His Glory from the Throne Room
of heaven. I've seen those in wheel chairs stand up instantly,
those on mats and cots in the United States and in third world
countries raised up by the atmospheric power of heaven. This
was the case of revival meetings we did at Great Faith Bible
Church in Seoul, Korea. Six thousand people attended the
nightly meetings and before we got within a city block of the
church the Glory of God could be felt in the air. It was
electrifying! People would show up three to four hours early
just to intercede for God to move. Each night we were so drunk
in the Holy Ghost we would have to be escorted (practically
carried) to the pastor’s office and then again, onto the stage to
minister because of the overwhelming cloud of Glory that was
in the atmosphere. Miracle after staggering miracle took place
each night. People brought in on mats would walk out healed.
Countless blind and deaf individuals were completely healed.
Tumors dissolved and legs grew out all because of the
atmospheric Glory of God that hovered in and around the
building. It was literally like a tangible cloud you could feel.
There is not a sickness or disease known to man that can
maintain its life force when the Glory of God enters the
atmosphere. Sickness is instantly driven out and demons must
leave in the name of Jesus Christ. The earth shakes and quakes
at the Presence of the Lord. When Resurrection Life enters the
room, the death causing all the peoples’ emotional and
physical issues, must leave.

The Key of David


Keys open and close doors! Just as God places them upon the
“Shoulder” of the house of David, God also places them on us.
David is a man who is known for his “Worship” throughout
Scripture. In a sense, worship is the key to opening doors. The
keys to opening doors in the realm of the Spirit were not only
given to Jesus, they are available to us as well. According to
Isaiah 9:6, the government of the Kingdom of God rests upon
the shoulder of Jesus. For foundational purposes I want to take
a quick look at the well-known Key of David Scripture passage
prophesied by Isaiah. Later we will go into greater detail.
And the key of the house of David I will lay
upon his shoulder; he shall open and no one
shall shut, he shall shut and no one shall
open. And I will fasten him like a peg or nail
in a firm place; and he will become a throne
of honor and glory to his father's house. And
they will hang on him the honor and the
whole weight of [responsibility for] his
father's house: the offspring and issue [of the
family, high and low], every small vessel,
from the cups even to all the flasks and big
bulging bottles (Isa. 22:22-23).
We see this passage is not directed toward the Lord, nor does
it pertain to a Messianic prophecy, but rather is directed to an
individual–David which can also be directed to us: And the key
of the house of David I will lay upon his shoulder; he shall
open and no one shall shut, he shall shut and no one shall
open (vs. 22).
The Key of the house of David is laid upon the shoulder. Keys
open doors. Jesus told Peter and the church that He would
give us the Keys of the Kingdom. The Bible also states that
Jesus is the “Head” and we are the “Body” or the “Shoulders.”
When these “Keys” are laid upon the shoulder of the
worshipping Body of Christ, each and every person has the
potential to open doors that no one will shut, and shut doors
no one will open!

Becoming a Throne of Honor and Glory


These worshipping, warring, Kingdom-minded overcomers will
not only possess the keys of the Kingdom, but will understand
how to use them. They will be able to speak into every
situation, both to the natural and the supernatural realm. They
will be able to open doors that no man can shut, and shut
doors that no one can open. Remember, we are the only ones in
creation made in His image; therefore, we have the choice to
align our sound with the sound of heaven. And when this
happens there will be a company of believers that will move
with unlimited anointing and authority that will possess
revelation knowledge of the blue prints of heaven and
understand their position and point of access. This is all too
exciting, but let’s look at the rest of the passage: And I will
fasten him like a peg or nail in a firm place; and he will
become a throne of honor and glory to his father's house (vs.
23).
Isaiah saw this company of believer and said that they would
be like a peg or a nail in a firm place, like a peg that someone
would use to hang a cloak or a mantle on!
…and he will become a throne of honor and
glory to his father's house.
The Scripture says that, “…he will become a THRONE OF
HONOR and GLORY to his father’s house.” Who will become a
THRONE of HONOR and GLORY? The one whom the Key of
the House of David rests upon. He will become unmovable to
the world and will be fastened like a nail in a firm place. This
individual will become a supernatural gateway for all of heaven
to flow through. Even more than that, it says that he will
become a THRONE. I'm telling you that the worshipping Son
(Huious) of God in these last days will literally become the
throne that the Lord Jesus Christ rests upon to reveal His
Kingdom of Power and Glory! Try preaching that in some of
the mainline denominational churches! None the less it is the
truth! Remember, Psalms 22:3 says that God is enthroned upon
the praises of Israel.
The throne of God literally rests on the praises of His people.
What does that look like? When we begin to praise God with
the understanding that He is the great King of heaven and we
worship Him with this attitude and reality, the Scriptures say
that His throne will literally be built upon, or come to rest on
top of those praises. Wherever the High Praises of God are
found on the earth is where the Throne of God will rest.
Wherever the Throne of God is, the King is. Wherever the
King is, there is a Kingdom. Where ever the Kingdom is, the
angels are—and all of the resources of the government of that
domain are present in reality as well. So when Isaiah 22:23 says,
“…and he will become a throne of honor and glory to his
father's house,” that’s what it literally means. We become a
gateway of the Glory of God through which His Kingdom
manifests.
Jesus said to Nathaniel in John 1:50-51, “…because I said to
you, I saw you beneath the fig tree, do you believe in and rely
on and trust in Me? You shall see greater things than this!
Then He said to him, I assure you, most solemnly I tell you all,
you shall see heaven opened, and the angels of God
ascending and descending upon the Son of Man!”
When we are connected with heaven we literally become a
gateway for the supernatural to manifest around us. Heaven
moves up and down upon us, releasing signs, wonders, and
miracles with our cooperation. God is looking for an end-time
army to arise with this revelation. And I fully believe we are the
generation. There is a fresh sound being released from heaven
with an incredible power and Glory the world has never seen—
and it’s falling on individuals that will bring it to the nations of
the earth. This fresh sound is the same sound that ushered in
the era of the early church. It is called the Sound of a Rushing
Mighty Wind.

The Sound of a Rushing Mighty Wind


And when the day of Pentecost had fully
come, they were all assembled together in
one place, When suddenly there came a
sound from heaven like the rushing of a
violent tempest blast, and it filled the whole
house in which they were sitting. And there
appeared to them tongues resembling fire,
which were separated and distributed and
which settled on each one of them. And they
were all filled (diffused throughout their
souls) with the Holy Spirit and began to
speak in other (different, foreign) languages
(tongues), as the Spirit kept giving them
clear and loud expression [in each tongue
in appropriate words] (Acts 2:1-4).

When the Holy Spirit was poured out on the early church in
the upper room it came as a sound from heaven like that of a
rushing mighty wind that filled the entire room. Along with that
sound appeared forked tongues of flames that burned on top
of everyone’s heads. It was the return of the long lost
government of God that was finally being restored to the earth.
The ushering in of that wind and fire has changed the world
and impacted every generation to date. Holy Ghost revivals
and reformations throughout church history have marked the
return of the government of God to planet earth along with the
impacted and the influenced it has had on commoners and
kings of nations. That violent release of heaven formed and
forged the early church and in these last days we will see
nothing less than the culminations of all those anointings
poured out in a concentrated form upon an end time army of
God. Heaven is violent and so will all those be who embody the
true nature of the Kingdom of Heaven.

The Sound of Unity


There is a sound rising in this generation that is necessary for
heaven to fully manifest on the planet. It's called the Sound of
Unity. When I talk about unity, I'm not referring to everybody
getting together on some kind of common ground and having
unity meetings. That never works. What I'm referring to is a
place where the Throne of God will literally come down upon a
corporate people who have one focus alone—the Presence of
Jesus. What does that look like? There was a sound released in
2 Chronicles 5 when they lifted up their voice “as one” with the
trumpeters and shouted the goodness of God. There was a
sound of unity in Acts 2 when the disciples were in the upper
room in “one accord” in prayer and fasting waiting for the
promise of the Holy Spirit by Jesus’ direction. They didn't
know what they were looking for exactly or how to get the
promise to come, but they were in one heart and mind waiting,
praying, contending, and fasting together for that promise.
And when that promise came, it did as a sound of a rushing
might wind, not a rushing might wind.
There was a sound that came in unity in Acts 4, when the
Apostles were gathered together as a company of believers of
“one heart and soul.”
And now, Lord, observe their threats and
grant to Your bond servants [full freedom]
to declare Your message fearlessly, While
You stretch out Your hand to cure and to
perform signs and wonders through the
authority and by the power of the name of
Your holy Child and Servant Jesus. And
when they had prayed, the place in which
they were assembled was shaken; and they
were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and they
continued to speak the Word of God with
freedom and boldness and courage. Now the
company of believers was of one heart and
soul, and not one of them claimed that
anything which he possessed was
[exclusively] his own, but everything they
had was in common and for the use of all.
And with great strength and ability and
power the apostles delivered their testimony
to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus, and
great grace (loving-kindness and favor and
goodwill) rested richly upon them all. (Acts
4:29-33, emphasis mine) They were one heart
and soul waiting for a second empowering of
the Holy Ghost which came and filled them
with great boldness and courage to preach.
And the sound that came from heaven was
like that of a great earthquake that shook the
place they were gathered. This generation is
going to see the same union of shaking as
God releases the violence of heaven upon a
unified corporate body. We again will testify
to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ
and GREAT GRACE will rest richly on all of
us.
The Sound of Breaker Anointing
We're in a season in which we will again witness firsthand the
sound of the armies of heaven being released in America and
the nations of the earth in the Spirit of Revival. I've been
privileged to minister in crusades, revivals and meetings
around the world in which the power from heaven manifests
and results in amazing demonstrations of miraculous power.
I've watched as the angelic army of heaven descends on the
masses in Africa resulting in mass deliverance of demonic
strongholds. Cripples walk, blind people are healed, tumors
dissolve, deaf ears open, and children walk for the first time
along with countless other demonstrations of raw supernatural
power. Heaven responds to the initiatives of the saints on the
earth.
A while back while doing a crusade in Indonesia I witnessed
the breaker anointing for miracles sweep through the stadium. I
barely finished preaching when people began to cry out as fire
from heaven and a breaker anointing was poured out upon
them. Many began to get out of wheelchairs, throw down their
crutches and run. Tumors evaporated and screams could be
heard throughout the arena. God was releasing Breakthrough
Anointing in a drastic way that no one in the arena could deny.
The place was electrified with shouting and praise.

Jesus the Master of Breakthrough


God’s plan for the earth and for us did not change after the fall.
Immediately He set His plan in motion to restore the Kingdom
to us and sent Jesus to get it all back for us. Jesus Christ is the
ultimate Master of breakthrough who has broken open the
heavens for us—so we could not only receive the Kingdom of
power and authority by the Holy Spirit here on the earth—but
also so we would have access to the heavenly realm with Him.
Therefore, brethren, since we have full
freedom and confidence to enter into the
[Holy of] Holies [by the power and virtue]
in the blood of Jesus, By this fresh (new) and
living way which He initiated and dedicated
and opened for us through the separating
curtain (veil of the Holy of Holies), that is,
through His flesh (Heb. 10:19-20) Jesus broke
open the way back into the Holy place.
Micah calls him the (Messiah) ultimate
Breaker; The Breaker [the Messiah] will go
up before them. They will break through,
pass in through the gate and go out through
it, and their King will pass on before them,
the Lord at their head (Mic. 2:13).

As King David was waiting for direction from the Lord to move
against the Philistines, he was told to wait for the sound:
When David inquired of the Lord, He said,
You shall not go up, but go around behind
them and come upon them over opposite the
mulberry (or balsam) trees. And when you
hear the sound of marching in the tops of the
mulberry trees, then bestir yourselves, for
then has the Lord gone out before you to
smite the army of the Philistines. And David
did as the Lord had commanded him, and
smote the Philistines from Geba to Gezer (2
Sam. 5:23-25).
King David knew that his only hope would be in the complete
and udder dependence upon the armies of heaven to
accomplish the impossible. David had just recaptured the Ark
of the Covenant that was taken by the Philistines and was in
the process of bringing it back to the city of David. But in order
for this to happen he had to deal one last time with the enemies
of Israel. David's trust was in the God of the Breakthrough:
David inquired of the Lord, saying, Shall I go up against the
Philistines? Will You deliver them into my hand? And the
Lord said to David, Go up, for I will surely deliver [them] into
your hand. And David came to “Baal-perazim,” and he smote
them there, and said, The Lord has broken through my
enemies before me, like the bursting out of great waters. So he
called the name of that place “Baal-perazim” [Lord of
breaking through].There the Philistines left their images, and
David and his men took them away (2 Sam. 5:19-20, emphasis
mine) David inquired of the Lord and God gave him heaven’s
strategy. Even though in this text the angels are not directly
mentioned, it was the assistance of the armies of heaven that
brought about the breakthrough David needed. The victory
was such a massive blow to the Philistines that they didn't
even have time to collect their images but just left them behind
for David and his men to destroy! David called the place
“Baal-perazim” which means, “God of the Breakthrough.”
This massive breakthrough was manifest by the release of the
Sound of angels marching on the tops of the Mulberry trees.
By the way, Mulberry trees are also known as the “balm” trees,
or the “healing” trees. The angels and healing go together.
I believe we are going to see in this season whole cities,
regions and even nations overrun by the power of heaven
evidenced by a release of the Sound of Heaven on earth.
Angelic armies will descend with a sound of fire and wind that
will unleash the Spirit of Revival over cites that will literally
change culture as we know it. The multitudes will come to the
Brightness of our Rising (see Isaiah 60, AMP) and spiritual
hunger will be the catalyst for these suddenlies of God. The
Lord will literally release the “roar” of His voice over a region;
the earth will shake as all of heaven breaks loose!
The Lord will thunder and roar from Zion
and utter His voice from Jerusalem, and the
heavens and the earth shall shake; but the
Lord will be a refuge for His people and a
stronghold to the children of Israel (Joel
3:16, emphasis mine).
The Lord roars out of Zion and utters His
voice from Jerusalem (Amos 1:2, emphasis
mine).
The Voice of the Lord is Creative Power

Several years ago on Good Friday, we were preparing to close


down the Global Fire offices for the holiday weekend when my
wife Jan frantically came busting into the office. She informed
me that she was on the way to the grocery store with her
mother and my then four-year-old daughter Mercy Rain when
they spotted a tornado on the ground which was coming
directly for the office. Without thinking I told my cameraman,
Rayne Warne, to grab a video camera along with my personal
assistant, Eric Green, to follow me outside. As we stood in
front of the office it was obvious to all of us that this was no
small tornado—it was in full F-4 power on the ground and was
moving toward us. Without thinking I told Rayne to start
filming and said, “Hey guys, watch this… In the name of Jesus
Christ of Nazareth I command you, tornado, do not touch my
house and dissipate, in the name of Jesus Christ.” All were in
amazement as the F-4 tornado instantly dissolved and lifted up
over the top of us. We found out later that it did set down on
the other side of the city and do some damage. Meanwhile,
God demonstrated the power of the spoken word. The Voice of
the Lord is in us and is a Creative Power!
Logos Matter
“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God,
and the Word was God” (John 1:1). As stated earlier, Jesus, as
the Word, created all things. In this passage, the Greek word
for “Word” is logos. Logos can also be interpreted into the
English word “matter.” So we can say: In the beginning was
the “Matter”, and the “Matter” was with God, and the
“Matter” was God!
The spoken Word is Matter that creates substance. Therefore,
we can see that words spoken in a faith-decree, come out as
energized matter that materialize in the natural-realm. As we
speak faith-decrees, when the Glory is thick in an atmosphere,
spontaneously, creative matter appears from the unseen realm.
For by Him all things were created,
both in the heavens and on earth,
visible and invisible, whether
thrones or dominions or rulers or
authorities… He is before all
things, and in Him all things hold
together (Col. 1:16-17).
The phrase “He is before all things” means that He is outside
of our time. Jesus said to John the Revelator that He was and is
the Alpha (beginning) and Omega (ending). Jesus is outside
our concept of time and is eternal now, causing all things to be.
Matter and the Spirit realm are intimately connected. As it was
in the beginning during Creation, so it is now. The Voice of the
Lord is creative Power. There is a non-physical reality that we
need to acknowledge before we can see the reality of the
supernatural. Beyond the physical, we are immersed in the
spiritual realm that causes matter to exist. Let’s look at Psalm
29: Ascribe to the Lord, O sons of the mighty, ascribe to the
Lord glory and strength. Give to the Lord the glory due to His
name; worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness or in holy
array. The voice of the Lord is upon the waters; the God of
glory thunders; the Lord is upon many (great) 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 breaks in pieces the cedars of Lebanon. He makes them
also to skip like a calf; Lebanon and Sirion (Mount Hermon)
like a young, wild ox. The voice of the Lord splits and flashes
forth forked lightning. The voice of the Lord makes the
wilderness tremble; the Lord shakes the Wilderness of Kadesh.
The voice of the Lord makes the hinds bring forth their
young, and His voice strips bare the forests, while in His
temple everyone is saying, Glory! The Lord sat as King over
the deluge; the Lord [still] sits as King [and] forever!
The Lord will give [unyielding and
impenetrable] strength to His people; the
Lord will bless His people with peace (Ps.
29, emphasis mine).
Seven times in eleven verses a statement is made about the
Voice of the Lord. The first is “The Voice of the Lord is upon
the waters….” This is the Genesis creation account: The earth
was without form and an empty waste, and darkness was upon
the face of the very great deep. The Spirit of God was moving
(hovering, brooding) over the face of the waters. And God
said, Let there be light; and there was light (Gen. 1:2-3).
The Spirit of God was moving over the face of the waters and
the Voice of the Lord said, “Let there be light” and there was
light.
Psalm 29 says the Voice of the Lord is Powerful, Full of
Majesty, breaks the cedars, makes the wilderness tremble and
shakes the Wilderness. The Voice of the Lord flashes forth
forked lightning, and makes the hinds bring for their young.
The Voice of the Lord strips bare the forests while in His
temple everyone is saying, GLORY!

You are a Song


Your body was created by the voice of the Lord, calling
mankind to be and it is sustained by Jesus holding all things
together by The Mighty Word of His Power (see Heb. 1:3).
David Van Koevering states in his book Physics of the
Supernatural Realm, “He is singing your song. That’s right!
You’re a song. Molecular biologists convert protein sequences
into classical music. You are a song. You can send these guys
a swab of your DNA, put it in a plastic bag, and they will send
you back the melodies, Literally! My faith says that I’m a song
sung by Jesus Christ causing me to be 20,000 times a
nanosecond.” [7]

The Power of Creative Speaking


The Voice of the Lord is creative power. Everything God
created, He created through the power of speaking words. The
Voice of the Lord is a vibration that shakes and recreates the
wilderness. It has the power to both create and recreate. When
God speaks we become impregnated with His word or matter.
As time passes, that word grows and develops—eventually
causing us to give birth to those specific promises. However,
when God’s word is spoken in the realm of Glory, the time it
takes for the word to grow and mature is reduced to only a few
moments as time is made to serve those who know and
understand their rights as citizens of heaven. When we
experience the Glory of God we are experiencing the realm of
timelessness. Just as the Voice of the Lord has creative power,
so does the voice of the sons of the Kingdom. As born again,
Spirit filled believers, we are made in His image, and like God,
hold the same position and place to speak with the voice of
creative authority as He does. This may seem to be a stretch
for some but nonetheless is altogether true.
When we are born again, we receive with the Spirit of God all
the DNA and genetics that are in Him. The God who created
the seen and unseen worlds dwells inside of us—this is a
mystery and a beauty. The Godhead, the fullness of Deity,
makes His home inside our hearts. Paul says that we should
not behave as mere men (see 1 Cor. 3:3). This is because we are
far from being mere men—we are possessed by Creator God.
Think about another statement of Paul’s:
…the Spirit of Him who raised
Jesus from the dead dwells in you
(Rom. 8:11).
What type of human being does this really make you? It makes
us like God in the earth. Not that we are God, but we are sons
of God and made in His Image. We are “Godlike ones.” The
Lord told Moses: See, I make you as God to Pharaoh (Ex. 7:1).
We literally speak as “Oracles” or as God’s earthly
representatives on the planet! By releasing the Voice of the
Lord through the power of the Spoken Word, we can decree a
thing and it will come to pass. It will happen! And it’s all done
by speaking words of faith.
You shall also decide and decree a thing, and it shall
be established for you; and the light [of God's favor]
shall shine upon your ways (Job 22:28).
There are both physical and spiritual requirements for releasing
the miraculous. We need the cloud of the Glory of God's
Presence, and then we must understand how to speak into it.
It’s time for us to switch gears and start speaking Glory
Presence Decrees in order to operate in the higher realities of
Creative Miracles.
CHAPTER 3
We Speak as the Oracles of God

The Voice of Revival Past & Present

Get Ready for the Sound of the New Wonder-


Working Oracles of God We need to get ready for
the new wonder workers! These new Oracles of God will
change cities, regions and nations as they speak as the voice
of God in the earth with the Mighty Word of power!

They will
move with unlimited anointing of Sound and Light that comes
from the Presence of the Lord. Nothing will stand before them.
To date we have seen many waves of revival hit the nations of
the earth and the shores of America, but nothing like we are
beginning to witness now. God has propelled the maturing
Body of Christ into a new place on the planet. Miracles and
power evangelism is becoming common on the streets of
America and the world. A company of New Oracles is rising up
with the burning coals of heaven on their lips. Like Moses,
they will speak as small “g” “gods,” little “Elohim” creators in
the earth, as “God-like ones” declaring and decreeing the very
will of God through their word.
The multitudes will understand who God is as hundreds,
thousands, and even millions come to Christ through
demonstrations of these new wonder-working Oracles of
power. We’ve seen some pretty remarkable things in past
revivals including the Welsh revival, The Great Awakening,
Azusa Street, Latter Rain, The Voice of Healing of the 1940s
and 1950s and then later moves of God like the Toronto
Blessing, Brownsville Revival and even the much scrutinized
Lakeland Revival. Impressive as they were, they have all been
merely “previews of the coming attraction.” They will all pale in
comparison to the outpouring of this new season—the
Outpouring of the Spirit of Revival.
The church is growing into the revelation that we really are
God’s representatives on this planet. And as His Governmental
representatives on the earth we have been given the authority,
ability and position to function with full legal Kingdom rights
to administer the job. I can think of many events during my
years of ministry, where as I came into a region and the Holy
Spirit gave me something specific to say that would release a
sign to all that were listening. God would back up the words He
gave me with incredible signs in the natural. One such event
was in 2006, on the 100-year anniversary of the Azusa street
revival. I was ministering in Topeka, Kansas with a friend of
mine and I began to prophesy in the conference center a
specific word of the Lord. And to confirm that this really was a
“Word from the Lord” I said that it would be backed up in the
natural by ninety-mile per hour straight-line winds that would
blow through the city and hail would fall from the heavens.
Now this was the end of March and Spring was in the air. That
evening, the weather changed. And on March 13, 2006 the
front page of the Topeka Capital Journal read, “Hail in
Topeka reached size of golf balls and Straight-line winds
reached up to ninety miles per hour.”

We Speak As the Oracles of God


We are in a fresh season of outpouring globally. God is
unleashing something fresh from the Presence of the Lord that
will result in churches, cities and regions ignited in revival fire
like we've never seen before. Attesting signs and wonders will
follow the anointed preaching of the Rhema Word that flows
from men and women of God. We are God’s mouthpieces on
the planet. Peter said: Whoever speaks, [let him do it as one
who utters] oracles of God; whoever renders service, [let him
do it] as with the strength which God furnishes abundantly,
so that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus
Christ (the Messiah). To Him be the glory and dominion
forever and ever (through endless ages). Amen (so be it) (1
Peter 4:11, emphasis mine).
Oracle preaching, or Rhema preaching, under the anointing is
and always has been, the standard for every generation. We
literally speak as “Oracles” or as God’s representatives on the
planet! His words are our words. By releasing the Voice of the
Lord through the power of the Spoken Word, we can decree a
thing and it will come to pass. It will happen! People do not talk
about oracles very much. To many, oracle is a “religious”
word, one used by those interested in religion. However
“oracle” occurs 21 times in Scripture and it carries an important
meaning. What is an oracle? Are they people who let demons
speak through them… or does the Spirit of God, the Holy Spirit,
speak through a them? Can anyone be an oracle?
Webster's Second International Dictionary defines an
oracle as, “The conduit by which God reveals hidden
knowledge or makes known His divine purpose.”

One may recognize common words to the word oracle


such as “oration,” “orator,” “oratory” and “orison.”
They all find their root in the Latin verb orare: to pray,
utter or speak.

So an oracle is a conduit of a message. It is not a


“medium” as in New Age spiritists who channel
demonic entities. The term here, means the package the
message comes through—much like a television is a
conduit of movies and news, or a pastor is a conduit of
the heart of God.

The most famous oracle in classical antiquity illustrates


this medium-message connection. In central Greece, at
the foot of Mount Parnassus, lies the town of Putho,
wherein lived the Delphian oracle, a priestess who
chanted prophetic messages—oracles. Those seeking
to know their future flocked to her. In Greek mythology,
a serpent, Puthon, inspired and guarded the priestess,
that is, the oracle. The god Apollo killed the dragon and,
appropriating his name, called himself Pythius. He
named the priestess/oracle the Pythia.

So, the person who voiced the revelation of Puthon


(and later of Apollo) was the Delphian oracle, or the
Pythia. But the gods' revelations themselves were also
oracles.

Surprisingly, Puthon is even mentioned once in the


Bible. Paul, Luke and Timothy had not been too long in
Philippi when they ran into a certain damsel possessed
with a spirit of divination (see Acts 16:16). The word
“divination” is puthon in Greek, the source of our
English word python. Demons are the source of pagan
worship (see 1 Cor. 10:20). The young lady, probably
not herself the Pythia, was possessed by a spirit of
divination that spoke as a demonic voice or a dark
oracle to reveal information to individuals for money. In
all likelihood, that demon's name is Apollo, perhaps an
associate of the Apollyon of Revelation 9:11. [8]
Logos – Word – Oracle

It is not at all surprising that the Greek word translated


as oracle in the King James Version of the New
Testament is driven from “logos” or “word.” That Greek
word is “logion,” a diminutive of logos. Vine's
Expository Dictionary of New Testament Words defines
logion as “a divine response or utterance, an oracle.”
You may be asking yourself why all the fuss over this
word Oracle. Well, it’s not so much about the word as
the revelation and application behind it. We are God’s
Ambassadors, according to 2 Corinthians 15:20. And as
Ambassadors, we are to speak as God’s anointed
representatives on the earth, declaring His will by direct
revelation, or divine “hook up” through the
administration of the Holy Spirit of God. We are to
speak as His divinely inspired prophets and priests,
representing the will of the King. Revelation 5:9 and
Exodus 19 states that He calls us to be a Kingdom of
Priests on the earth. Great men in the Old and New
Testaments were called “oracles” including Moses and
Stephen.
Moses
received the living oracles—specific utterances
from God to give to us! Moses met with God on
Mount Sinai in Exodus 3 and received direct
instructions to speak to the children of Israel and
to Pharaoh concerning the release of the
Hebrews. The Lord told Moses: “See, I make
you as God to Pharaoh” (Ex. 7:1).

Moses both acted with powerful signs and wonders and


spoke as a living Oracle—a direct messenger of God as
he released the Word of the Lord to Pharaoh and
backed it up with the ten plagues on Egypt. Moses was
the friend of God. God spoke with Moses not like he did
with any other man but He spoke with Moses face to
face.

And the Lord spoke to Moses face to


face, as a man speaks to his friend.
Moses returned to the camp, but his
minister Joshua son of Nun, a young
man, did not depart from the
[temporary prayer] tent (Ex. 33:11,
emphasis mine).

King David received


revelation from the Presence of the Lord and as a
preface to his last words tells us that, “The Spirit of the
Lord spoke by me, and His word was on my tongue. The
God of Israel said, the Rock of Israel spoke to me” (2
Sam. 23:2).

The Prophet
Jeremiah had a similar experience later. “Then the Lord
put forth His hand and touched my mouth, and the
Lord said to me: ‘Behold, I have put My words in your
mouth’” (Jer. 1:9). Take a look also at Jeremiah 36:2,
where God commands Jeremiah to write down “all the
words that I have spoken to you against Israel, against
Judah, and against all the nations.”

The message of the apostles came from God. They did


not speak myths. Those people lacking the ears to hear
His revelation will turn quickly enough to the Pythia
who speaks under inspiration of the serpent Python and
the demon Apollo.

The Stoning of Stephen the Martyr

In Acts 7, we see
Stephen on trial about to be stoned for the testimony of
Jesus. He spoke of Moses being God’s representative
mouthpiece from the Mountain to the children of Israel.

Acts 7:38 says, “This is he who was in the


congregation in the wilderness with the Angel who
spoke to him in Mount Sinai, and with our fathers, the
one who received the living oracles to give to us"
(emphasis mine).

We understand that all Scripture is given to us by


inspiration of the Holy Spirit and comes to us as living
utterances or Oracles from God. This can best be
described in the words of the Apostle Paul who penned
most of the New Testament under direct influence of,
and by direct revelation of, the Lord Jesus Christ. Look
at what Paul states: For I want you to know, brethren,
that the Gospel which was proclaimed and made
known by me is not man's gospel [a human invention,
according to or patterned after any human standard].
For indeed I did not receive it from man, nor was I
taught it, but [it came to me] through a [direct]
revelation [given] by Jesus Christ (the Messiah). Nor
did I [even] go up to Jerusalem to those who were
apostles (special messengers of Christ) before I was,
but I went away and retired into Arabia, and afterward
I came back again to Damascus. (Gal. 1:11-12, 17).

Paul Receives the Gospel


by direct Revelation of the Holy Ghost What advantage then
has the Jew or what is the profit of circumcision? Much in
every way! Chiefly because to them were committed the
oracles of God (Rom. 3:1-2).
Paul extends the meaning of oracles here in two ways—
in content and audience: The word [logos] which God
sent to the children of Israel, preaching peace by Jesus
Christ—He is Lord of all—that word you know, which
was proclaimed throughout all Judea, and began from
Galilee after the baptism which John [the Baptist]
preached (Acts 10:36-37).

Peter came to recognize that the oracles of God are for


all men, God showing no partiality or favoritism (see
Acts 10:34).

For though by this time you ought


to be teachers, you have need
again for someone to teach you
the elementary principles of the
oracles of God, and you have
come to need milk and not solid
food (Heb. 5:12, NASB).

In context, God tells us one of the purposes of His


revelation to mankind. The writer of Hebrews scolds his
audience for being dull of hearing (vs. 11). Using an
analogy of milk, the nourishment of children, against
strong meat (vs. 12, KJV), the fare of those who are of
full age, he laments that he needs to go back to the
basics, the first principles of God's revelation. Not using
that revelation to exercise their senses to discern both
good and evil (vs. 14). They had failed to grow up!

The purpose of God's revelation is to provide the


nourishment, the food, by which we come to a perfect
man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of
Christ (see Eph. 4:13). It is God's revelation, His oracles,
which allow us to go on to perfection (see Heb. 6:1).

Aside from this, Webster's definition seems to fit


the biblical use of the word oracle. God's Word
makes it clear that His oracles are His utterances,
His revelation to mankind. Also, God uses
people to communicate His message. The Logos
Himself, as well as Moses, all the prophets and
the apostles, served as oracles of God. “If
anyone speaks, let him speak as the oracles of
God” (1 Peter 4:11).
Jesus Christ
speaks as an Oracle from the Father – Christ only
spoke the words He heard His Father Speak. Of course
He is the greatest example in all Scripture of One who
spoke only was directed by God. He is the Word of God
in human flesh—the One by whom the worlds have their
existence. The Hebrew writer says it like this: IN MANY
separate revelations each of which set forth a portion
of the Truth] and in different ways God spoke of old to
[our] forefathers in and by the prophets, [But] in the
last of these days He has spoken to us in [the person of
a] Son, Whom He appointed Heir and lawful Owner of
all things, also by and through Whom He created the
worlds and the reaches of space and the ages of time
[He made, produced, built, operated, and arranged
them in order].3He is the sole expression of the glory of
God [the Light-being, the out-raying or radiance of the
divine], and He is the perfect imprint and very image of
[God's] nature, upholding and maintaining and
guiding and propelling the universe by His mighty
word of power. When He had by offering Himself
accomplished our cleansing of sins and riddance of
guilt, He sat down at the right hand of the divine
Majesty on high (Heb. 2:1-3).

In the Gospel of John, Christ Jesus Himself attests to


this more than once: I have many things to say and to
judge concerning you: but He who sent Me is true; and
I speak to the world those things which I heard from
Him (John 8:26).

For I have not spoken on My own


authority; but the Father who sent
Me gave Me a command, what I
should say and what I should
speak (John 12:49).

The words that I speak to you I do


not speak on My own authority;
but the Father who dwells in Me
does the works (John 14:10).

The word which you hear is not


Mine but the Father's who sent
Me (John 14:24).

For I have given to [the disciples]


the words which You have given
Me, and they have received
them… (John 17:8).

By example, Jesus walked, listened to and lived


continually in unbroken fellowship with the
Father and the Holy Spirit. He roll modeled the
standard for all Spirit filled believers, assuring us
that He would never leave us as orphans but
would come to us and make His home in us.

Jesus answered, If a person


[really] loves Me, he will keep
My word [obey My teaching];
and My Father will love him,
and We will come to him and
make Our home (abode,
special dwelling place) with
him (John 14:23).
By this promise and outpouring of the Holy
Spirit of God we are able to walk in unbroken
fellowship in the Presence of God and speak as
living oracles of the Kingdom of God everywhere
we go. The world is looking for the real Jesus
Christ. He really is the desire of the nations; they
just don't know it, because they haven’t really
seen Him. The church has not properly revealed
Jesus Christ in the way He would be seen, but
this is about to change!

God is raising up an end time warrior bride that


will be moved by the impulses of His heart. They
will only speak what they hear the Father
speaking. When this happens, such power and
authority will be released from heaven that the
world will recognize and respond to Him, and this
is what is being worked in and through the
church of Jesus Christ now. God is preparing the
church to display power and Glory like the world
has never seen before. Jesus Christ will be
glorified in and through His church in these last
days and will reap the reward of His suffering!

Oracles of Past Revival


It’s important to understand that there were Oracles of God
speaking in both the New and Old Testament, and that all of
the revivals to date were initiated by men and women that
moved and spoke under divine inspiration and revelation as
living oracles. We are to follow the same lead in this season.
Not all preaching was divinely inspired, however, wherever
there is a true move of God in the earth you can rest assured
that God was there speaking and moving through people that
were completely yielded to Him. This is the case with such
recent revivalist that most of us have either heard of or a
familiar with.

CHARLES FINNEY (born 1792) used to hold individuals and


crowds under the power of his every word speaking as an
authoritative Oracle of God: “I received overwhelming
baptisms of the Holy Ghost, that went through me, as it
seemed to me, body and soul. I immediately found myself
endued with such power from on high that a few words
dropped here and there to individuals were the means of their
immediate conversion. My words seemed to fasten like barbed
arrows in the souls of men. They cut like a sword. They broke
the heart like a hammer. Multitudes can attest to this.
Oftentimes a word dropped without me remembering it, would
fasten conviction.”
Finney explains how he would sometimes lose this incredible
oracle anointing and what he did to come back under it again:
“Sometimes I would find myself, in a great measure, empty of
this power. I would go out and visit, and find that I made no
saving impression. I would exhort and pray, with the same
result. I would then set apart a day for private fasting and
prayer, fearing that this power departed from me, and would
inquire anxiously after the reason of this apparent emptiness.
After humbling myself and crying out for help, the power
would return upon me with all its freshness. This has been the
experience of my life.”
He continues:
“This power is a great marvel. I have many
times seen people unable to endure the
word. The most simple and ordinary
statement would cut men off from their seats
like a sword, would take away their bodily
strength and render them almost as helpless
as dead men. Several times it has been true
in my experience that I could not raise my
voice, or say anything in prayer or
exhortation except in the mildest manner,
without wholly overcoming those who were
present. This was not because I was
preaching terror to the people; but the
sweetest sounds of the gospel would
overcome them. This power seems sometimes
to pervade the atmosphere of one who is
highly charged with it. Many times great
numbers of persons in a community will be
clothed with this power, when the very
atmosphere of the whole place seems to be
charged with the life of God. Strangers
coming into it and passing through the
place will be instantly smitten with
conviction of sin, and in many instances
converted to Christ.”
“When Christians humble themselves and
consecrate their all afresh to Christ, and ask
for this power, they will often receive such a
baptism that they will be instrumental in
converting more souls in one day than in all
their lifetime before. When Christians remain
humble enough to retain this power the
work of conversion will go on, till whole
communities and regions of country are
converted to Christ.” [9]
GEORGE WHITEFIELD
Of this event an eyewitness writes: “...with the sight of
thousands and thousands, some in coaches, some on
horseback, and some in the trees, and at times all affected and
drenched in tears together, to which sometimes was added the
solemnity of the approaching evening was almost too much
for, and quite overcame me.” [10]
George was surprised how crowds “…so scattered abroad can
be gathered at so short a warning.” He was also surprised at
how such enormous crowds could listen to attentively that as
he wrote, “Even in London, I never observed so profound a
silence.”
Benjamin Franklin heard Whitfield preach when he first arrived
in Philadelphia, and wrote in response, “He had a loud and
clear voice, and articulated his words and sentences so
perfectly, that he might be heard and understood at a great
distance, especially as his auditories, however numerous
observed the most exact silence.” Franklin calculated that
Whitfield's voice could be heard by more than thirty thousand
listeners. [11]
JOHNATHAN
EDWARDS
This was more than natural ability—it was a voice of
supernatural power. Sarah Edwards hosted George in
Northampton, Massachusetts and wrote: “It is wonderful to
see what a ‘spell’ he casts over an audience by proclaiming
the simple truths of the Bible. I have seen upwards of a
thousand people hung on his words with breathless silence,
broken only by an occasional half suppressed sob....” [12]
MARA WOODWORTH-
ETTER
Maria Woodworth-Etter often spoke to the crowds with such
anointing that the Holy Spirit overcame the listeners and they
succumbed to a trance like state. Her words were so weighty
from heaven that even the toughest of individuals could not
withstand the power of the Spirit by whom she spoke. Maria
Woodworth-Etter responded to God’s call and people were
thronging to hear her speak with signs and wonders following.
By 1885, without a public address system, crowds of over
twenty-five thousand pressed in to hear her minister while
hundreds fell to the ground under the power of God. Those
who came to investigate, condemn, or harass her seemed most
at risk of “falling out” in what was described as a trance-like
state. Woodworth-Etter not only shook up denominational
religion, she rocked the secular world with life-altering displays
of God’s power. [13]

Oracle Preaching
Maria Woodworth-Etter demonstrated “Oracle” preaching and
stated, “These strong manifestations of the Spirit were nothing
new; they were just something the Church had lost.” She was
unwavering in her determination to break the strongholds that
held people, communities, and whole cities in bondage. It
seemed like the more opposition she faced, the more she dug in
her heels. Maria produced invincible strength through
tenacious prayer that enabled her to take authority and minister
with grace and power. She was known as a revivalist who
could break towns open. Earlier in her ministry, Maria received
a vision from the Lord where she saw people bundled up like
sheaves of wheat lying in a field. It was not until she preached
with power at a church in western Ohio that the meaning of her
vision about the sheaves of wheat became clear. Here the
people fell into what seemed like “trances”—an altered state
which would come to profoundly mark her ministry and
confound the wise of her day. “Fifteen came to the altar
screaming for mercy. Men and women fell and lay like dead,”
Maria recounted. “After laying on the floor for some time, they
sprang to their feet shouting praises to God. The ministers and
elder saints wept and praised the Lord for His ‘Pentecost
Power’”—and from that meeting on, her ministry would be
marked by this particular manifestation with hundreds
miraculously healed, and hundreds more coming to Christ.
At every meeting she held, there was a demonstration of the
power of the Spirit. One reporter wrote, “Vehicles of all sorts
began pouring into the city at an early hour—nothing short of
a circus or a political rally ever before brought in so large a
crowd.” Maria couldn’t answer all the invitations she received
to minister, but the ones she did accept created a national stir
that has never been silenced. The writings of then young F.F.
Bosworth described the spectacular meetings that took place in
Dallas, Texas, from July through December. As a result, Dallas
became a hub of the Pentecostal revival.
She has been called the grandmother of the Pentecostal
movement. None has done more than Maria Woodworth-Etter
to shed light on the convicting power of the Holy Spirit, the
role of women in ministry, and the power of miracle crusades to
revive a nation. In addition, she brought insight on how to
effectively administrate massive miracle crusades, build
sustainable ministry centers and manage opposition in the
public arena. Her commitment and dedication personally
influenced such great heroes of the faith as Smith
Wigglesworth, Aimee Semple McPherson, John Alexander
Dowie, John G. Lake, E.W. Kenyon, F.F. Bosworth, and
Kathryn Kuhlman.
Her legacy is evidenced by the ongoing ministry work of
healing evangelists around the world. Though, for the last six
years of her life, she confined herself to ministering from the
Tabernacle she had erected in Indianapolis, Indiana, her
healing anointing remained as powerful as ever. She continued
to speak with power from the Word of God until her very last
days. As she became weaker, she was carried in a chair to the
pulpit, and finally ministered a touch of healing or a word of
hope from her bed. [14]
William Branham - An Oracle of God in the
‘50s Healing Revival William Branham was beyond
doubt a man of notable signs and wonders. From birth,
supernatural manifestations marked his life. He truly walked
with God. He did indeed have a divine impartation to minister
healing and deliverance. A modern day prophet of biblical
proportion, he healed the multitudes and delivered the afflicted
from all kinds of demonic bondages and strongholds. He
walked in the Spirit, guided by visions from the angel of the
Lord and when he spoke to individuals or the masses, he spoke
as God’s mouthpiece. He truly spoke as an Oracle of God in the
healing revival. Many of the known healing evangelists came
alongside him to promote and partner with him—men such as
Gordon Lindsey, A.A. Allen, F.F. Bosworth, and Jack Moore.
Branham’s healing team launched what became known as the
Voice of Healing magazine, which helped fuel the great healing
revival of the early 1950s. This movement directly impacted
T.L. Osborn, Kenneth Hagin, Oral Roberts, and others so that
today the wider church has a firmer grasp on the truths
regarding faith and healing.

Meager Beginnings
William Marrion Branham was born to a fifteen-year-old
mother, and an eighteen-year-old father, in a tiny, dirt floor
shack up in the hills of Kentucky. They were poor and illiterate,
and had no interest in spiritual matters. William grew up
without any knowledge of God, the Bible, or prayer. Yet God
had a special call on his life and would go to great lengths
throughout William’s childhood to get his attention. From a
young age, William heard God’s voice, and knew that he was
being called to a different kind of life than those around him.
He didn’t understand the calling or how to quiet the longing he
felt in his heart. At the age of nineteen he decided to move
away hoping that he would find solace in a new location. He
moved to Phoenix, Arizona where he worked on a ranch, but he
still couldn’t escape the sense that God was calling him. When
he received news that his brother had died, he returned home
to his grief-stricken family. It was at the funeral that he heard
his first prayer and knew then that he needed to learn to pray.

Answering the Call


He stayed close to home to be near his grieving family, taking a
job at a nearby gas works company. After two years on the job,
William was overcome with gas fumes when testing a meter
and ended up in the hospital where he underwent surgery for
appendicitis. As he lay in the recovery room, he felt his life
ebbing away. His body grew weaker and his mind grew dark;
and then he heard the familiar voice saying, “I called you and
you would not go.” The words were repeated again and again.
William’s inner voice answered back, “Lord, if that is You, let
me go back again to earth and I will preach our Gospel from the
housetops and street corners.” [15]
He was released from the hospital a few days later and began
immediately to seek the Lord. He found a small, independent
Baptist church that nurtured and prayed for him and then six
months later ordained him an independent Baptist minister.
William obtained a small tent and began to minister with great
results. It was in June of 1933 at the age of twenty-four, that
Branham held his first major tent revival. Three thousand
people attended in one night. It was during this time that a
supernatural manifestation occurred.

An
Angel Visits 4,000 While Baptizing in the
Ohio River
William was holding a special baptism service where he
baptized 130 believers in the Ohio River. When he had baptized
the seventeenth person, this is what William described
happened: “A whirl came down from the heavens above, here
come that light, shining down . . . it hung right over where I
was at . . . and it like to a-scared me to death. The voice from
heaven said, ‘As John the Baptist fore ran the first coming of
Christ, you will forerun the second.” Many of the four
thousand that saw the supernatural light and heard the voice
that came from heaven ran in fear! Others remained and fell in
worship. [16]
Several months later, in the fall of that year, the people who
attended those powerful meetings built a headquarters for
William’s anointed ministry calling it “Branham Tabernacle.”
From 1933 to 1946, Branham ministered at the Tabernacle while
working at a secular job.

The Rushing Wind

He continued to preach at the Branham Tabernacle and have


prophetic visions. No one seemed to understand him or the
nature of his visions and he grew more restless. He did remarry
during this time for his oldest child’s sake and worked to
provide for the family as a game warden in addition to
preaching at the Tabernacle.
One spring day, in 1946, he came home for lunch and sat with a
friend from work under a large maple tree. All of a sudden,
according to Branham, “It seemed that the whole top of the tree
let loose . . . it seemed like something came down from that tree
like a great rushing wind.” His wife came running out to see
what the commotion was all about, and after getting a hold of
his emotions, Branham shared all the past experiences he’d had
with the wind rushing above him in the trees. Since he was a
young child, a “mighty rushing wind” haunted him, spoke to
him, and compelled him to seek God for answers.
He then told his wife that he was going to find out, once and
for all what was behind this “wind” and recalled that he had
said, “I told her and my child good-bye and warned her that if I
didn’t come back in a few days, perhaps I might never return.”
A
Visit from an Angel
Branham left for a cabin in a secluded place to pray and read
the Bible. He cried out to the Lord to speak to him in some way.
That night he noticed a light flickering in the room that began
to spread across the floor and then grew into a ball of emerald
fire shining on the floor which moved over the top of his head.
Footsteps approached and he saw a large man dressed in a
white robe coming toward him. The man spoke in a deep voice
and said, “Fear not, I am sent from the presence of Almighty
God to tell you that your peculiar life and your misunderstood
ways have been to indicate that God has sent you to take a gift
of divine healing to the people of the world. If you will be
sincere, and can get the people to believe you, nothing shall
stand before your prayer, not even cancer.”
William humbly replied that he was so poor and uneducated no
one would listen to him. The Angel gave him two gifts that he
would use as signs to help the people believe. The first would
be his ability to detect disease by a vibration in his left hand;
and the other would be the word of knowledge revealing the
secret sin hidden in a person’s heart.

Walking Out the Calling

The following Sunday after returning home, Branham shared


with his congregation what he had experienced. While he was
speaking, someone handed him a telegram requesting that he
come to St. Louis to pray for a gravely sick daughter. He
quickly took up an offering for the train-fare and borrowed a
suit of clothes. At midnight he boarded the train for St. Louis.
He arrived to find the girl dying from an unknown sickness.
She was weak and wasting away, hoarse from crying out in
pain. William was moved to tears and pulled away to seek the
Lord privately about what to do. He saw the answer in a vision
and waited until the conditions were just as he had seen them
in the spirit. He asked the people present if they believed he
was God’s servant and directed them to do just he told them,
doubting nothing. He proceeded to ask for several things and
prayed according the vision the Lord had given him.
Immediately the child was healed.
News spread quickly and the people of St. Louis asked
Branham to return. In June of 1946 he conducted a twelve-day
healing revival there where tremendous manifestations took
place. The lame walked, the blind saw, the deaf heard, and the
dead were raised. A woman who stood mocking outside
dropped dead from a heart attack. Branham went out to pray for
her and she revived praising God. The healings that took place
were beyond count as Branham often stayed until 2:00 a.m. to
pray for the sick.
From St.
Louis he went on to Jonesboro, Arkansas, where 25,000 people
attended the meetings. On one occasion, Branham went out to
pray for a woman who had died in an ambulance outside the
meeting hall. She sat up healed and Branham had to sneak out
of the front of the ambulance under cover of disguise to return
to the meeting.

Relentless Revival
1947 was a high profile year for Branham. In Arkansas he
acquired his first campaign manager. Time published news of
his campaigns as his ministry toured the western states. While
in Portland, Oregon, T.L. and Daisy Osborn attended his
meetings and were greatly influenced by what they witnessed.
It has been said that this was the refreshing and refocus they
needed to launch their world-changing international ministry.
This was also the year that Gordon Lindsey joined forces with
Branham. Lindsey became his administrator and organized and
promoted one of the greatest healing revivals to this day.
Accompanied by Jack Moore, the “Union Campaign” joined
the forces of the Oneness Pentecostals and the Full Gospel
circles for a series of revival campaigns held throughout the
Pacific Northwest and Canada. Branham was successful at
avoiding doctrinal differences and leading thousands to
salvation and healing. Reports stated that 1,500 souls were
born again in a single service and as many as 35,000 healings
were manifested during that stretch of ministry.

The Oracle Healing Ministry


Often times in revival meetings William Branham would preach
and then have to wait for the angel of the Lord to appear.
William Branham would apologize to the audience and state
time and time again that he was a man just like everyone else
and that he could do nothing of himself and would try to
explain the gift of God being the only reason he was able to
move in the supernatural as he did. Then as quickly as he saw
the angel of the Lord he would shift the meeting into high gear
and begin to move in healing by vision.
I've watched videos of William Branham ministering and it is
mind boggling. People lined up for prayer and stood in front of
him. William called the next person in line and would say,
“Now don't be afraid of that presence, that is the Lord you are
feeling.” As the person stepped forward for ministry William
Branham launched into detailed visions of the person’s life and
began to minister to them out of that vision. He would be
seemingly lost in another place as he revealed certain aspects
of their life, city where they lived, their street address, their
name and the names of those in their family and the specific
condition that afflicted them. As he did this by the Holy Spirit
of God he was never wrong and 100% of those who sought
healing were healed every time. William Branham would come
out of the vision and say, “Of course I don't remember what
was just said because it’s gone from me now, but this was all
true.” And then, the person he was ministering to raised his or
her hand to confirm. Branham was completely under the power
of the Holy Spirit to the point that he could remember no detail
of what had occurred. He functioned as a modern day Oracle of
God in his time, speaking as a mouthpiece for God.
William Branham was a Forerunner When the angel first
appeared to William Branham in the Ohio River he said, “As
John the Baptist foreran the first coming of Christ, you will
forerun the second coming of Christ.” Forerunners
demonstrate what is to come and what is being made available
to all. They are the first. Branham never claimed to be anything
more than this. He always stated that he was a brother and a
friend just like everyone else. Even though there were many
then and still today, that claim he was indeed John the Baptist
or even Christ, he openly denied these statements and warned
that if they continued, the Lord would take him home. Some
say that Brother Branham got off into doctrinal error, which
was never the case. He had strong beliefs on some issues but
was never doctrinally incorrect. He remains today one of the
most incredible post-modern, wonder-working Oracles of our
time.

CHAPTER 4

Releasing the Subatomic Power of Praise

There is a supernatural power that is released in praise that


alters both the physical and non-physical realm. When the
praises go up, the Glory comes down. It’s that simple. If we are
going to see the necessary breakthrough in our personal lives,
churches, cities, regions and nations, then we need to
understand the subatomic power of praise. Sound is an
amazing force. Ray Hughes says, “A pair of 30 inch speakers
connected to a tone generator can generate a note low enough
to literally, physically move a building off its foundation.” [17]
We are continually in the presence of ultrasonic and subsonic
sound waves. Ultra—meaning “above,” are waves above our
threshold of hearing and sub—meaning “beneath,” are waves
beneath our threshold of hearing. Just because we can't
physically hear them doesn't mean they don't exist. They do!
Making History – Breaking the Sound
Barrier
Here's a quick bit of important history. The speed of sound is
the distance traveled during a unit of time by a sound wave. In
dry air at 20 °C (68° F), the speed of sound is 343.2 meters per
second (1,126ft/s). This is 1,236 kilometers per hour (768 mph)
or approximately one mile in five seconds.
In aerodynamics, the sound barrier usually refers to the point
at which an aircraft moves from transonic to supersonic speed.
The term came into use during World War II when a number of
aircrafts started to encounter the effects of compressibility, a
collection of several unrelated aerodynamic effects that
“struck” their planes like an impediment to further acceleration.
By the 1950s, new aircraft designs started to routinely “break”
the sound barrier.
U.S.
Navy F/A-18 breaking the sound barrier. The white halo formed
by condensed water droplets is thought to result from a drop in
air pressure around the aircraft at transonic speeds.
Some common whips such as the bullwhip or spare-whip are
able to move faster than sound: the tip of the whip breaks the
sound barrier and causes a sharp crack—literally a sonic boom.
Firearms since the 19th century have generally had a
supersonic muzzle velocity.
It was in the X-1 that Chuck Yeager was credited with being the
first man to break the sound barrier in level flight on 14 October
1947, flying at an altitude of 45,000 ft (13.7 km). He had
christened his plane the Glamorous Glennis. The rocket-
powered aircraft was launched from the bomb bay of a
specially modified B-29 and glided to a landing on a runway.
Prior to Chuck Yeager's success, there were many failed
attempts to break the sound barrier most of which resulted in
fatal or near fatal crashes. As the plane would reach the speed
of sound, water molecules would form at the nose of the craft
causing external pressure and push the aircraft backward.
Vibration would cause the plane to begin to break up and nose
dive or veer off uncontrolled resulting in tragedy. [18]

The Sonic Boom


To break the sound barrier one would have to push through
the resistance at the nose of the plane by thrusting forward. As
the plane would begin to break the barrier, water vapor and
pressure would move to the tail of the craft and as full
penetration would occur, the barrier of resistance would
become the catalyst of Sonic Thrust causing it to catapult
forward and create what is known today as the Sonic Boom.
At the point of reaching the sound barrier one can either
release the pressure and fall back where it is comfortable and
predictable, or one can by thrust forward to where few have
gone before and BREAK THROUGH into the sonic boom level.

The Subatomic Power of Praise There is a


supernatural power that is released in praise that alters both
the physical and non-physical realm. When the praises go up,
the Glory comes down. It’s that simple. If we are going to see
breakthrough in our personal lives, churches, cities, regions
and nations, then we need to understand the subatomic power
of praise.
Praise means to commend, to applaud or magnify. For the
Christian, praise to God is an expression of worship, lifting-up
and glorifying the Lord. It is an expression of humbling
ourselves and centering our attention upon the Lord with
heart-felt expressions of love, adoration and thanksgiving.
High praises bring our spirit into a pinnacle of fellowship and
intimacy between ourselves and God — it magnifies our
awareness of our spiritual union with the Most High God.
Praise transports us into the realm of the supernatural and into
the power of God. “Blessed is the people that know the joyful
sound: they shall walk, O LORD, in the light of thy
countenance” (Ps. 89:15, KJV).
There are many actions involved with praise to God—verbal
expressions of adoration and thanksgiving, singing, playing
instruments, shouting, dancing, lifting or clapping our hands.
Unpretentious praise and worship pleases the Lord. According
to Scripture, the various expressions of praise bring blessing to
the Lord. He eagerly awaits the fragrance of our affections,
desiring to manifest His sweet presence and power in our
midst. “The true worshipers shall worship the Father in spirit
and in truth: for the Father seeks such to worship him” (John
4:23).

Creating a Culture of Praise All too often, praise to


God is something that many people leave at church, an event
that happens only when they come together with other
Christians. However, praise should be a part of a believer’s
lifestyle, intermingled as a part of their daily prayer-life—at
work, in the car, at home in bed, or anywhere—praise to the
Lord brings the refreshing of the Lord’s presence, along with
His power and anointing. “I will bless the LORD at all times:
his praise shall continually be in my mouth” (Ps. 34:1).
Praise is an expression of faith, and a declaration and
realization that God is always with us, and is in control of the
outcome of all our circumstances (see Rom. 8:28). Praise is a
“sacrifice,” something that we offer to God sacrificially, not just
because we feel like it, but because we believe in Him and wish
to please Him. “By Him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of
praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving
thanks to his name” (Heb. 13:15).

Sonic Vibration
Science confirms that every created thing is made up of sound
waves that are constantly spinning at different intervals,
forming objects in matter of various densities both small and
great. We also understand sound as a power, that when
cranked up to a certain level or frequency, it will break or crush
glass or break windows in a house. All sound and color and
images are wavelengths that move by vibration and are a
power that have substance.
That being said, we need to understand that every attitude
carries its own power and vibration which is recognizable in the
realm of the spirit. It is not just an attitude… it is a force that
wraps itself around a person like a coat that continually pulls a
person deeper into its power until they are completely
overtaken by it—whether for good or bad. Every attitude we
release is filled with powerful vibrations wrapping themselves
around us like a garment, further enveloping us into its
cocoon-like power.
For by your words you will be
justified and acquitted [set free],
and by your words you will be
condemned and sentenced
[condemned]… (Matt. 12:37).
Jesus was saying that the words we wrap ourselves in will
either set us free or imprison us here in this life and in eternity
to come!
Death and life are in the power of
the tongue, and they who indulge
in it shall eat the fruit of it [for
death or life] (Prov. 18:21).

Praise Shatters the Enemy Since praise manifests


God’s presence, we also know that praise repels the presence
of the enemy, Satan. An atmosphere that is filled with the
sincere worship and praise of God’s people will send the
enemy running. For in the presence of the Lord there is fullness
of joy. Satan cannot contend with or find remedy for the all-
encompassing presence of God. He must flee.... Satan cannot
stand the manifest presence of God. Every time the devil
encountered the presence of Jesus in Scripture, he immediately
recognized, and publicly attested to, the supreme majesty and
power of Jesus Christ. The demons have always begged for
mercy from Him to not torment them before their time. So it is
with us.
As we cultivate an environment of the Glory of God through
High Praises the enemy will run from us, demons will
automatically scatter, sickness and disease will lose their grip
as they are demonically induced and will eventually fall away.
So the key to the end-time church is to become a praising
people that stops at nothing short of the manifest presence of
Jesus Christ in our midst and the power of the Holy Ghost
presence that will drive every inferior dimension of sickness
and disease from our midst through the unashamed, uplifted
faces of a family of sons and daughters that have full
confidence born out of a pure revelation that He longs to be
with us and dwell in our midst. This kind of thinking is
dangerous for the devil to see happening in the saints of God.
As the Presence of God comes, the veil is stripped away and
we are being transfigured from one degree of Glory and
revelation to another by the Lord who is that Spirit (see 2 Cor.
3:18).
Satan becomes powerless to stop the renewal of the mind and
the flow of revelation that comes to transform the person. He
fears the power of the name of Jesus, and runs from the
presence of the Lord.
Whoso offers praise glorifies me: and to him
that orders his conversation aright will I
show the salvation of God (Ps. 50:23).
When the children of Judah found themselves outnumbered by
the hostile armies of Ammon, Moab, and mount Seir, King
Jehoshaphat and all the people sought the Lord for His help.
The Lord assured the people that this would be His battle. He
told them to go out against them, and He would do the fighting
for them. So what did the children of Judah do? Being a people
of praise (Judah actually means praise), and knowing that God
manifests His power through praise, they sent their army
against their enemies, led by the praisers!
So, on they went, ahead of the army declaring, “Praise the
Lord, for His mercy endures forever!” And the Scripture says,
“...when they began to sing and to praise, the LORD set
ambushments against the children of Ammon, Moab, and
mount Seir, which were come against Judah; and they were
smitten” (2 Chron. 20:22).
When God’s people begin to praise His name, it sends the
enemy running! I challenge you to become a person of praise,
and you will experience the release of the power of God!

Releasing the God Sound


But You are holy, O You Who dwell in [the
holy place where] the praises of Israel [are
offered] (Ps. 22:3).
Praising God means adoring Him, honoring Him, and exalting
Him, and He takes delight in the praise of the saints. To
“Praise” is to commend the worth of, express approval or
admiration of.
Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and
into his courts with praise: be thankful unto
him, and bless his name (Ps.100:4).
We should always come into the presence of God with praise
and thanksgiving. God lives in the midst of our praises—if you
want God to come close—praise Him.
In chapter 2, I touched on the power that was released from
heaven with Paul and Silas. Paul cast a spirit of divination out
of a woman of Thyatira, and when her masters saw that they
would no longer make gain from her, they caught Paul and Silas
and brought them before the rulers, and when they had beaten
them, they cast them in prison.
But about midnight, as Paul and Silas were
praying and singing hymns of praise to God,
and the [other] prisoners were listening to
them, Suddenly there was a great
earthquake, so that the very foundations of
the prison were shaken; and at once all the
doors were opened and everyone's shackles
were unfastened (Acts 16:25-26).
Paul and Silas understood what it took to change their
circumstances. Praise and thanksgiving released a floodgate of
power from the unseen realm of Glory that manifested in the
natural. That power created an earthquake that shook the very
foundation of the prison and resulting in everyone’s shackles
falling off. Praise produced a sonic wave of God-Sound.

The Stones Cry Out


When Jesus entered into Jerusalem on Palm Sunday, the
people gathered to praise God for all the great miracles they
had seen Jesus perform. The religious leaders were there as
well and demanded that the people stop praising. Jesus said if
these people keep silent the very stones will cry out in praise!
As He was approaching [the city], at the
descent of the Mount of Olives, the whole
crowd of the disciples began to rejoice and
to praise God [extolling Him exultantly
and] loudly for all the mighty miracles and
works of power that they had witnessed,
Crying, Blessed (celebrated with praises) is
the King Who comes in the name of the Lord!
Peace in heaven freedom there from all the
distresses that are experienced as the result
of sin] and glory (majesty and splendor) in
the highest [heaven]! And some of the
Pharisees from the throng said to Jesus,
Teacher, reprove Your disciples! He replied,
I tell you that if these keep silent, the very
stones will cry out (Luke 19:35-40, emphasis
mine).
The stones have ears and memory and will cry out! Before
entering into the Promised Land, Joshua recounted the
covenant between the people and the Lord: And Joshua wrote
these words in the Book of the Law of God; and he took a
great stone and set it up there under an oak that was in [the
court of] the sanctuary of the Lord. And Joshua said to all the
people, See, this stone shall be a witness against us, for it has
“heard all the words” the Lord spoke to us; so it shall be a
witness against you, lest [afterward] you lie (pretend) and
deny your God (Josh. 24:27-28, emphasis mine).

Jehoshaphat's Victory through Praise A great


multitude came against Jehoshaphat to battle, and he set
himself to seek God, and proclaimed a fast; God heard and
answered, “Be not afraid, nor dismayed by reason of this
great multitude; for the battle is not yours, but God’s...
Tomorrow go ye out against them… ye shall not need to fight
in this battle: set yourselves, stand ye still, and see the
salvation of the Lord with you…” (1 Chron. 20:15-17, KJV).
When he had consulted with the people, he
appointed singers to sing to the Lord and
praise Him in their holy [priestly] garments
as they went out before the army, saying,
Give thanks to the Lord, for His mercy and
loving-kindness endure forever! And when
they began to sing and to praise, the Lord
set ambushments against the men of Ammon,
Moab, and Mount Seir who had come
against Judah, and they were [self-]
slaughtered… (2 Chron. 20:21-22).

The Ruah Shout


The Hebrew word “Ruah,” which is the very breath of God, can
also be translated, Shout. It is the same word used in Psalm
100:1 and Psalm 95:1 and translated shout joyfully and make a
joyful noise. Other meanings include battle cry, shout of
triumph, and sound an alarm. Ruah was used to denote any
shout of joy or praise. In fact in public worship it would denote
praise of the most animated kind, which always required a body
function.
One of those words is the word “Shabach” which means to
shout in a loud address or tone. The priest blew the trumpets;
the people raised a great shout of triumph, and praise; God's
presence and power came down; and the walls of Jericho fell
flat. When the praise went up the presence came down. It’s
interesting to note that it is the very breath of God (Ruah) that
comes through the mouths of His people in the shout. He is the
very breath (Ruah) of life living in us. When we shout unto
God, it is literally God's breath and sound that are being
exhaled into the atmosphere. Every created living thing
recognizes the God-Sound vibration and responds.

A Great Vibration in Heaven When heaven shouts


in praise - the angels and spiritual creatures, the saints who
have gone before us and form the great cloud of witnesses –
their combined God-Sound is like a mighty roar, like the boom
of many pounding waves. This shout in heaven actually
creates a vibration (a sound wave) that, when it collides with
the natural realm, shakes the very foundations of the earth.

The Tanzania Shout


In 2008, I took a team with me to Tanzania, Africa for a Global
Fire Crusade. I had done many crusades but this one was
going to be different. We were expecting a crowd of nearly
100,000 and we were all excited. We planned to be in Tanzania
after the rainy season to assure success so our team was
pumped and ready. On the first night of the five-night crusade
few people had shown up, not the more than 3,000. Toward the
end of three hours of worship, monsoon-looking rain clouds
began to appear. Suddenly, the rain poured down. I noticed
black ravens flying overhead as people were scrambling to pick
up their belongings and children and run for cover. I said to
myself, “Somebody is praying, and it’s not the Christians.”
Without thinking, I screamed into the microphone, “Not on my
crusade,” and commanded the rain clouds to stop in Jesus
name. As quickly as these monsoon clouds rolled in, they left.
That night we had a crusade and many great miracles
happened. People gave their lives to Jesus Christ as Kingdom
power and authority was manifesting.
The Lord told me on the first night of the crusade, “Jeff, if you
can get the people to give Me a shout of praise each night I
will do great miracles.” So before I preached I would get the
people to release a shout of praise in the crowd that when
released was like a sonic wave of sound that went up into the
heavens and returned like a supernatural sonic boom upon the
people resulting in mass miracles. I barely had time to preach.
As the praises went up, the Glory came down. People were
getting up out of their wheelchairs. I saw tumors dissolving,
blind eyes opening, crippled babies walking, it was amazing!
And after they got healed, they would give their lives to Jesus.
Each night as we shouted, biblical type miracles would occur
and the crowds would grow as word spread throughout the
city.
By the fifth night, approximately 80,000 people crowded the
soccer field. It was a beautiful night in Tanzania. The sun was
just setting over the horizon casting a shadow on the
mountains in the background. As I stood up to preach, I heard
the Lord say to me, “Jeff you better hurry up.”
I asked, “What do you mean Lord?” As I looked over the
crowd of people, I saw flaming lights coming from around each
side of the large mountain. I heard the Lord say to me again,
“Jeff… you better hurry up!” I could see through the eyes of
my spirit, chariots of fire descending from around the mountain
coming toward the people.
I hurried the people to their feet and said, “Tonight Jesus
Christ is going to do great miracles, but first we are going to
give Him a shout of praise!” The Lord told me if I could get
these Muslim people to give Him praise, He would do great
miracles. People who had received miracles from the previous
nights brought their families and friends as the spreading
reports of the many miracles drew their curiosity. Most knew
the drill. I hurried the people to stand in the soccer field and on
the count of three with the band we released a corporate shout
of praise to Jesus Christ. As we did, those angelic chariots of
fire descended upon the people resulting in mass deliverance.
People dropped to the ground under the power of heaven as
devils manifested. I had never seen anything like this in my life.
This region was a satanic hot bed of ritualistic activity and
many were being instantly delivered. The city elders told me
they have had in many great evangelists and hosted many
crusades, but never had they seen these kinds of miracles from
a first time evangelist. Thousands were instantly healed and
immediately responded to salvation.

The High Praises of God


Praise is one of the highest weapons the believer possesses.
Through praise, battles have been won and nations conquered.
David wrote: Let the high praises of God be in their throats
and a two-edged sword in their hands, To wreak vengeance
upon the nations and chastisement upon the peoples, To bind
their kings with chains, and their nobles with fetters of iron,
To execute upon them the judgment written. He [the Lord] is
the honor of all His saints. Praise the Lord! (Hallelujah!) (Ps.
149:6-9).
Let the “High Praises” of God be in your mouth—not the low
praises. High praises are the release of thanksgiving and honor
given directly to the Lord Jesus Christ. When we give Him the
Glory due His name and begin to sing directly to Him instead
of about Him, He comes with all of His Glory. As the high
praises are in our mouths, the double edged sword is
automatically in our hands, to wreak vengeance upon nations,
punishment upon enemies, to bind kings (demonic) with chains
and fetters, and to execute judgment. For the Lord is the honor
of all His saints! When the praises go up, the Glory comes
down and every enemy of the saints is rendered powerless.
Sickness, disease, poverty, lack must all bow to the mighty
name of Jesus Christ.
The Joyful Sound
David wrote about many types of praise including high praises
and joyful sounds. These are not just nice, descriptive words
—they are powerful.
Blessed (happy, fortunate, to be envied) are
the people who know the joyful sound [who
understand and appreciate the spiritual
blessings symbolized by the feasts]; they
walk, O Lord, in the light and favor of Your
countenance! In Your name they rejoice all
the day, and in Your righteousness they are
exalted. For You are the glory of their
strength [their proud adornment], and by
Your favor our horn is exalted and we walk
with uplifted faces! (Ps. 89:15-17, AMP)
Blessed are those who know the “Joyful
Sound.” What is the joyful sound? It’s the
sound of High Praise that brings the
transforming Glory of God! In the joyful
sound, God’s friends rejoice all day long, for
the Lord is their strength and they can walk
with their faces lifted toward Him with no
shame.
The enemy cannot touch the warring praising saint, for his
attention is on the loveliness and sweet attractiveness of the
Lord and they walk in the Light of the Glory of God. No devil
can follow you there! With our attitudes we are constantly
attracting one of two kingdoms; either the Kingdom of light or
the kingdom of darkness. All too often we are looking for some
kind of super-spiritual answer or remedy to deliver us from our
condition, when all we need to do is simply worship and praise
our way through it.

The Cloak of Thanksgiving Isaiah prophesied to a


generation that was yet to come. He said the Spirit of the Lord
is upon us: To grant [consolation and joy] to those who
mourn in Zion—to give them an ornament (a garland or
diadem) of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of joy instead of
mourning, the garment [expressive] of praise instead of a
heavy, burdened, and failing spirit… (Isa. 61:3).
The Hebrew word for “garment” here is mattah, which means
to wrap oneself in or to veil oneself. When we choose to put
on the garment of praise we begin to wrap ourselves in the
power and light of that garment, which destroys the spirit of
heaviness.
The Hebrew word for “praise” is hallal, which means to shine
forth with sound and color. When we begin to praise, we shine
with light and color and sound. So when we choose to praise,
we wrap ourselves in a supernatural garment of power and light
which flows with an unstoppable force that destroys the spirit
of heaviness. When we choose to be thankful, we are filled
with light, and depression, sadness, and despair from the
demonic realm are cut off. [19]
CHAPTER 5

Becoming a Gateway of the Supernatural


Realm

Supernatural Gateways of Light


Before we look at this chapter, I believe it's important for us to
understand what it means to become a gateway of the
Supernatural realm. The life of Jesus was filled with
extraordinary events that reach far beyond what we would call
the norm of the day. The disciples also moved in the Exousia
power that flowed from the mantle of the Spirit of the Lord that
rested on Jesus’ life as He demonstrated to them what it meant
to become a gateway in both the natural and spiritual mind. In
Matthew 16:13-17 Jesus asked His disciples: Who do people
say that the Son of Man is? And they answered, Some say
John the Baptist; others say Elijah; and others Jeremiah or
one of the prophets. He said to them, But who do you
[yourselves] say that I am? Simon Peter replied, You are the
Christ, the Son of the living God. And Jesus said to him,
Blessed (happy, fortunate, and to be envied) are you, Simon
Bar-Jonah. For flesh and blood [men] have not revealed this
to you, but My Father Who is in heaven.
Four verses later Peter has another revelation after Jesus told
them plainly He would have to go to the cross: Then Peter
took Him aside to speak to Him privately and began to
reprove and charge Him sharply, saying, God forbid, Lord!
This must never happen to You! But Jesus turned away from
Peter and said to him, Get behind Me, Satan! You are in My
way [an offense and a hindrance and a snare to Me]; for you
are minding what partakes not of the nature and quality of
God, but of men (Matt. 16:22-23).
Peter moved from being a gateway of revelation from the Father
in one moment to becoming a gateway of darkness the next, to
which the Lord literally said to him, “…get behind Me, Satan!”
How could this be? From Holy Ghost revelation to Satanic
information in less than 60 seconds!
In truth, we all reveal one of two minds, either the natural mind
or the mind of the Spirit. Jesus was our great example. He was
the Firstborn among many brothers. He was in complete union
with the Father at all times. As a result, He turned water into
wine, had Peter pull a coin out of a fish’s mouth, multiplied five
loaves of bread and two small fish feeding five thousand men,
not including women and children, walked on water, spoke to
fig trees and storms and they obeyed Him, and demons
acknowledged Him and ran from His presence! The
supernatural events were so numerous they couldn’t even all
be recorded. These testimonies were given us as an example so
we would know by certainty what is available and rightfully
ours to walk in when rightly connected with God. Jesus plainly
told us: I assure you, and most solemnly I tell you, if anyone
steadfastly believes in Me, he will himself be able to do the
things that I do; and he will do even greater things than
these, because I go to the Father (John 14:12).
The Supernatural Stones of Seattle
The testimony you are about to read is the accurate account of
events as they occurred at Transformation Center Church
International in Seattle, Washington. I'm adding this testimony
to further illustrate what it means to become a supernatural
gateway of Light. The Lord is calling the church into a place of
such union with Him that signs like these will be the norm and
not the exception. I pray that you will honor the Glory of God
as you read the testimony of Andrey Shapovalov, pastor of
TCCI.
Pastor
Andrey Shapovalov Transformation Center Church
International Seattle, Washington
It was in the in the summer of 2009 when we first had Jeff
Jansen come to the Transformation Center Church in Seattle,
Washington. Our meeting was ordained of God from the start.
Jeff was scheduled to be in another meeting in the Seattle area
that had cancelled. The night of the cancellation, Jennifer
Martin, wife of Munday Martin, had a unique dream with Jeff in
it. In the dream she saw a large rocket getting ready to take off.
On the two visible fins of the rocket was an American flag and
a Russian flag. Printed on the side of the rocket was the word
“YOUGOTA 827,” which we interpreted to be a Russian city
somewhere. Jennifer called Jeff and told him the dream. Later
that day, Jeff received a phone call from the Transformation
Center asking him to come there instead. We told Jeff we were
a Russian church and he accepted the invitation based on the
dream. We picked Jeff up from the airport, ate lunch and then
headed for the church. Along the way we discussed the details
of the “YOUGOTA 827” dream and what it could possibly
mean, as we could not find any information on it as a Russian
city. As we pulled up to the building someone screamed,
“Look! Our address is 827!” Then it became clear, “You – go -
ta - 827” the Russian church! We all laughed with excitement.
The Lord was up to something.
Immediately Jeff began to tell us things about who we were and
where we were going. Our relationship was a hit from the start.
I feel it important to tell you that going back to my teen years I
had witnessed many incredible displays of the presence of God
with friends—we encountered the Lord in many wonderful
ways. We would be swept away into the Glory of God for
extended periods of time—sometimes up to eight hours or
more! These encounters I believed prepared me and our church
for what we were about to receive in this season at TCCI.
Jeff told
us that God was making our church a house for His Glory. He
said that the feathers would start coming as a sign, and that the
gemstones would be coming just like in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho.
Jeff said that he saw that the Glory of God that was over Coeur
d'Alene, Idaho at one time had moved over Seattle,
Washington and that we were to make room and get ready for
God. As Jeff was leaving that weekend he gave Ally Piatnitsky
a gemstone from his collection and said this would be the first
of many.
Get Ready for the New
Later that year in November the feathers came into our
meetings, houses, cars, work places just as we were told.
Testimonies would come from our affiliate covenant churches
from all around Europe as they were connected to us globally.
Then in January 2010, Jeff came back for a Glory Explosion
conference and everything changed. The very first night Jeff
asked us if we believed God would fill peoples teeth with gold.
The whole church shouted, “Yes!”
Then Jeff said, “I've even seen God put a diamond in a gold
tooth in a person’s mouth… do you believe that God would do
that?”
Again the whole church shouted, “Yes, we believe that!”
He said again, “I've even see God put a ruby in a gold tooth in
a mouth, do you believe that God would do that?”
The church exploded with an overwhelming, “Yes! We believe
God can do anything!” There were great miracles that night but
the greatest of miracles were yet to come.

Lana
Golodyuk On Sunday morning, the last session, powerful
waves of the Glory of God came into the service; waves that
were felt by all. Right toward the end of the preaching Lana
Golodyuk, one of our leaders, was worshipping when she was
hit with what she said described as a “ball of fire.” Lana said it
was so powerful that when it hit her, she bent over causing her
teeth to come together and her back tooth cracked in two. She
said she could feel the heat from the fire still in her stomach
and her throat, mouth and tongue became extremely dry. Lana
asked her husband for water and was feeling something rolling
around in the back of her mouth. She thought, “My tooth
cracked in two.” Then Lana spit what she thought was her
tooth into her husband’s hand only to see that it was a two-
karat diamond! Lana screamed and fell to the floor and the
church exploded with wonder and amazement. Jeff said
diamonds were coming in the mouth; even still, we were all
shocked.
From that time to the present, almost two years ago, we have
received over 45 stones of various sizes, colors and shapes
from Lana's mouth. Every time a stone would come in a meeting
it either comes to confirm the Word that is being preached or
as a sign to a vision that has come. Something new was birthed
into the ministry and we were excited about what could
possibly be coming next. We do not chase after signs and
wonders, they come to confirm what God is already doing or is
about to do. The Word of God says that attesting signs follow
them that believe (see Mark 16:17).

Gateways of Glory
These stones that Andrey testified about come from the Glory
realm by the Spirit of God and manifest in the natural through
Gateways of Glory. We are Glory containers in the earth. We
were designed by God to carry His Glory to the nations.
Sometimes, as in this case, the stones come in the mouth.
Sometimes they come through the skin, or appear on the
ground.
I have a friend who had a stone come out through the palm of
his hand in a meeting I was doing with Charlie Robinson in
Hastings, New Zealand. He felt something uncomfortable in the
palm of his hand as he was paging through his Bible, only to
open his hand and literally, watch as the one-karat stone
“popped up from under his skin into his hand.” He was
shocked. It came from the “inside out.” We are Glory carriers,
Glory containers. Jesus said that the Kingdom of God is in you
and all around you (see Luke 17:23, AMP).

Becoming a Throne of Honor & Glory


As I mentioned in Chapter 2, I want to look a little deeper into
the Isaiah 22:22-23, Key of David principle. It relates to the
descending Throne of God that rests not only over our cities
and regions, but over our very lives. As we offer up High
Praises to God, we connect on a level far greater than we
realize. We literally become Supernatural Gateways of Light
that the Glory of God flows through bringing power, revelation,
miracles and everything needed for that particular atmosphere.
Let’s look again at the key of David principle as it relates to the
descending Throne of God that rests not only over our cities
and regions, but over our very lives.
And the key of the house of David I will lay
upon his shoulder; he shall open and no one
shall shut, he shall shut and no one shall
open. And I will fasten him like a peg or nail
in a firm place; and he will become a throne
of honor and glory to his father's house.
And they will hang on him the honor and the
whole weight of [responsibility for] his
father's house: the offspring and issue [of the
family, high and low], every small vessel,
from the cups even to all the flasks and big
bulging bottles (Isa. 22:22-23, emphasis
mine).
Isaiah foresaw a company of believers who would be like a peg
or a nail in a firm place, like a peg that someone would use to
hang a cloak or a mantle on and he will become a throne of
honor and glory to his father's house.
This Glory Company will not only possess the keys of the
Kingdom, but will understand how to use them. They will be
able to speak in every situation both to the natural and the
supernatural realm and be able to open doors that no man can
shut, and shut doors that no one can open. These believers
will move with unlimited anointing and authority because they
possess revelation knowledge of the blueprints of heaven with
an understanding of their position and inheritance in the
Kingdom.
The passage says that he will become a Throne of Honor and
Glory in His Father’s House. Who will become a THRONE of
HONOR and GLORY? The one on whom the Key to the House
of David rests. He will become unmovable to the world and will
be fastened like a nail in a firm place. This individual will
become a supernatural gateway of heaven and even a Throne!
I'm telling you that the worshipping Sons of God in these last
days will literally become the Throne that the Lord Jesus Christ
rests upon to reveal His Kingdom of power and Glory! Try
preaching that in some of the mainline denominational
churches!
Nonetheless, it is the truth! Psalm 122 says that He is
enthroned upon the praises of Israel.
The throne of God literally rests on the praises of His people.
What does that look like? When we begin to praise God with
the understanding that He is the great King of heaven and
worship Him with this attitude and reality, the Bible says that
His throne will literally be built upon and come to rest on top of
those praises. Wherever the high praises of God are found on
the earth, this is where the Throne of God will rest. Wherever
the Throne of God is, the King is. Wherever the King is… there
is a Kingdom. Wherever the Kingdom is—the angels are—and
all of the resources of the government of that domain are
present in reality.

Angels Moving Through Supernatural Gates


Back in 2005, I was in a Glory Explosion meeting in Yakima,
Washington with Randy DeMain and several other ministry
friends. In the meeting I noticed something happening in the
room, near a table of showbread in the front of the church. It
appeared to be a smoke ring swirling above the table that
turned into what looked like a smoke doorway of some sort. I
was standing next to Randy and was just getting ready to point
it out to him when he grabbed my arm and said, “Hey Jeff look
over there… a portal is opening up.” As soon as he said this,
out came this beautiful angel. I need to emphasis here that I am
very cautious when it comes to talking about the angelic realm.
We need to make sure that we always speak the truth and with
the utmost respect, giving accurate details and information as
they occur. Now, I want to leave off here and rewind to a few
days prior to the Yakima meeting and share another encounter
that will help bring this into focus.

The Spirit of Wisdom


Two
days prior to this event in Yakima, Washington the Lord woke
me up at 4:00 a.m. to pray. As I was sitting in my chair, I had an
encounter from heaven. While praying I had a visitation from
the Spirit of Wisdom who came and spoke to me out of the
book of Proverbs chapter 8. I never thought of Wisdom as
being female in appearance, but the truth of the matter is she is.
Does not wisdom call… besides the gates, at the opening to
the city, at the entrance of the doors, she cries out… (Prov.
8:1-2, NASB).
For 45 minutes, Wisdom spoke with me about details of
creation and how she was there in the beginning with the Lord
as a “master builder” over all His works. Wisdom told me how
she applauded all of the works of His hands and that it was by
her (Wisdom) that a house was built. She told me that all of
God’s children were there along with the angels in the
beginning and how all were amazed and praising God for all of
the wonderful works of creation.
Wisdom then told me, “Jeff, you were there… remember?”
Honestly I couldn't remember anything. I was too absorbed in
the details of what was happening before me. To date, I can tell
you that this is one of the most interactive and incredible
encounters I've ever experienced.
Wisdom then said, “Jeff, to get Wisdom is better than Rubies,
and today you are being given a new measure of Wisdom.”
After Wisdom had finished speaking, I noticed two other large
angels present in the background. Each of them had scrolls in
their hands that were rolled up—they looked like white leather
and appeared to have writing on both sides. The first angel
approached me. Involuntarily, I opened my mouth as he
crammed this large, four-foot scroll down my throat. The
second angel did the same thing. I felt like I was simply along
for the ride and had to keep telling myself not to think.
When the two angels were finished, another beautiful angel
came into view. It was the same angel I would later see in
Yakima, Washington. Somehow I instinctively knew to hold
out my right hand and when I did the angel carefully placed in
it a 50-karat Ruby! Then I heard again what Wisdom told me,
“To get Wisdom is better than rubies.”
I kept thinking to myself, “What's happening to me? Was I
dreaming this or was it real?”
Now, fast-forward to the meeting in Yakima. Here I was with my
friend Randy DeMain and the angel had just come through the
smoke door. It was the same angel that brought me the 50-karat
ruby two days before. As the angel came through the door, all
were intensely worshipping in the room with hands raised. I
too, had my hands raised, but when I recognized the angel I
lowered my right hand and held it open! I had seen this before
in a vision. I was thinking, “Here it comes, my 50-karat Ruby!”
I know it must have looked kind of foolish but I had to obey
the vision. The interesting thing is the angel walked right past
Randy and me, and went over to another man who was on his
knees worshipping with his hands upheld. Then the angel
dropped that 50-karat Ruby into his hand. When the man felt
the ruby, he opened his eyes, saw the angel, and screamed as
loud as he could. Immediately, the angel disappeared and he
was left alone with people standing all around him snapping
pictures. I knew exactly what had just happened. As I walked
over there and looked, sure enough, there it was, the 50-karat
Ruby. I was shocked. I said, “Lord, what are You doing? What
is this all about?” I was happy and rejoicing, but I couldn't
help thinking, “That was my 50-karat ruby!”
As I was walking back to my seat, the Lord told this man, “This
is Jeff's stone, go and give it to him.” As he was on his way to
give it to me, people were still taking photographs of the stone
in his open hand. As he approached me, something happened.
His hand began to vibrate and right in front of everyone the
stone multiplied. Now there were TWO 50-karat stones in his
hand. He handed me the original stone that the angel brought
for me, and he kept the other. What an amazing set of
circumstances. We were all shocked and amazed at what was
taking place. This angel that I had seen two days prior gave me
a 50-karat stone in the realm of the spirit had now just delivered
it hand to hand.
Angels Ascending and Descending
In John 1, Jesus told Nathaniel that he would see the angels
constantly moving up and down out of the gateways between
heaven and earth like Jacob did in Genesis 28 when he saw
heaven open with angels ascending and descending on a
ladder: Jesus replied, “Because I said to you, I saw you
beneath the fig tree, do you believe in and rely on and trust in
Me? You shall see greater things than this!” Then He said to
him, “I assure you, most solemnly I tell you all, you shall see
heaven opened, and the angels of God ascending and
descending upon the Son of Man” (John 1:50-51).
When we speak the Word of God we become a Word Gate that
the angels move upon to do the Mighty works of the Lord.
Praise the LORD, you his angels, you mighty
ones who do his bidding, who obey his word
(Ps. 103:20).
As the anointed Rhema Word of the Lord comes out of our
mouths in ministry, the angels take that anointed Word and
instantly perform or fulfill it as a messenger or agent of God.
The angels work with the sons and daughters of God in doing
miracles and healing, even in bringing revelation and
information out of the realm of Glory. So what does that look
like? Angels take the anointed Word of God as it comes out of
your mouth and execute it. You have the authority of the
Kingdom of God and it surrounds you even as you speak.
Jesus said: For behold, the kingdom of God is within you [in
your hearts] and among you [surrounding you] (Luke 17:21).
What does it look like to have the Kingdom of God in you and
constantly surrounding you? What does it look like to become
a “Throne of Honor?” What does it look like to be united with
the Lord as one-Spirit with Him as Paul mentioned in 1
Corinthians 6:17, “But the person who is united to the Lord
becomes one spirit with Him”?
Think about that! We are One with Him! What type of human
being does that make you? It makes you a “Godlike one in the
earth!” You literally become a GATEWAY OF LIGHT in the
earth. Everything in the spirit world sees you. Angels as well
as demons know who you are. They see the Light of God
flowing through your spirit-man as a vessel, a portal, a
supernatural highway of the Kingdom of God. We become a
THRONE and there is One Who sits on that Throne. Do you
get it? Jesus wasn't kidding when He said: If a person [really]
loves Me, he will keep My word [obey My teaching]; and My
Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our
home (abode, special dwelling place) with him (John 14:23).

Jesus told Nathaniel that we, too, can become a gateway for
the supernatural: Because I said to you, I saw you beneath the
fig tree, do you believe in and rely on and trust in Me? You
shall see greater things than this! Then He said to him, “I
assure you, most solemnly I tell you all, you shall see heaven
opened, and the angels of God ascending and descending
upon the Son of Man” (John 1:50-51)!
When we are connected with heaven, we literally become a
gateway for the supernatural to manifest in and around us.
Heaven moves up and down upon us releasing signs wonders
and miracles with our cooperation. God is looking for an end
time army to arise with this revelation. And I fully believe we
are the generation. There is a fresh sound being released from
heaven with incredible power and Glory that the world has
never seen, and it is falling on individuals that will bring it to
the nations of the earth.

Imagination is the Gateway to the


Supernatural Here is another truth that is important for us
to understand as it relates to us becoming living gateways of
the Supernatural: Thoughts are seeds, and when planted in the
proper soil, they will reproduce after their own kind. Your
thought life is just as real as when you speak. Words are
verbalized thoughts. When thoughts are held close to the heart
and mixed with passion and strong desire, a spiritual heat
causes that seed to spin into life—and according to the
Creation Law of Reproduction, they will produce after their
own kind.
This is what is meant by Proverbs 23:7, “As a man thinks in his
heart so is he….” We have this Godlike component to create
like He did. It all starts in the thoughts and the imagination.
The imagination is the gateway to the supernatural—it is the
door to the spirit realm. What you think upon will manifest in
the natural!
You don’t even have to be a Christian for this to operate. There
are many people doing things illegally by this principle alone.
Remember, the Human Mind is a great earthly power as we are
made in the very image of God. This law is Universal and
cannot be changed.

Thoughts That Birth From Passion


Jesus goes on to reveal the power of your thoughts to create
life: For this reason I am telling you, whatever you ask for in
prayer, believe (trust and be confident) that it is granted to
you, and you will [get it] (Mark 11:24).
Desire is a very powerful emotion. Jesus is saying desire,
believe, speak and you will have. Our thoughts are not just
thoughts that nobody hears. They are the seeds of desire that
produce and chart the course of our present and future life. If
thoughts are seeds, and they are, we must understand how
they are planted.
When your thoughts connect with desire in the emotions, the
power of light is released. If you can hold your thoughts until
they are connected with your emotions or feelings or desire,
when they connect they become a power—a life and a light.
This is the principle and power of agreement inherent in
Mathew 18:19, “Again, I tell you that if two of you… agree
about anything… it will be done for you…” (NIV).
When your emotions agree with your thinking—it shall be
done—that’s the power of union. As I wrote about in my
previous book, Glory Rising, this is a spiritual law: The
Creation Law of Reproduction [20]. It cannot be stopped. Take,
for example, the seemingly unstoppable force of fear. Fear is
just a thought until it connects with your emotions. You may
hear a noise outside your home at night. For a moment your
mind is flooded with thoughts about what that noise could be
—eventually giving you an adrenalin rush of emotion called
fear. When this connection takes place between the thought
and the emotions it begins to fill your entire being and it
becomes a living force. This seed of thought then energized by
emotion will literally create the environment of fear and even
terror. Anything that connects with our emotions becomes a
very strong power.
The church has taught for years that emotions are not
important. I say to you that your emotions and your thought
life is the creative side of you. Your emotions are essential for
everything to happen. Miracles are released through our
emotions. Jesus was moved with compassion. Compassion
released miracles—even the raising of the dead.
The power and Glory of God in the anointing are released
through the gateway of human affection. This is why Paul
stated to the church in Corinth that they were restricted in their
affections (see 2 Cor. 6:12).
We have to feel what we do. When our thinking connects with
the feeling of what we do, THE SEED IS PLANTED by desire!
A power is released. It’s the law of union where two things (or
people) come into agreement.
When evil desire is conceived, it gives birth
to sin, and sin when it is fully matured,
brings forth death (James 1:15).
When evil desire is conceived by lust (emotion) and thought,
the two coming together form a creative power bond of
agreement that brings forth (to breed or to create) sin. This
phrase “bring forth” is the same as the plant that comes from
the seed. It is the process of the Creation Law of Reproduction
at work. Your thoughts manifest in the natural—like begets
like.

Thoughts Shape Our World


Thoughts are living and powerful and when they connect with
emotions they bring forth or create substance in our lives. Our
thoughts become the gateway to the supernatural realm as
desire mixes with the heart.
When I am meditating on the Word of God and revelation
begins to flow in me and through me, my whole being seems to
be flooded with light. And not only light, but flooded with the
tranquil peace of the life of God. My emotions and the
revelation that is coming from God’s mind is being planted in
the soil of my spirit-man. You know when God is speaking and
your whole being is filled up with God!
Revelation is not just an abstract thought—it is connected
with feeling that buries life deep inside us. And when this
happens, a seed is planted. Conception has taken place. And
with follow through, that revelation will bring to birth in our
life.
This is the process of Creation! As a man thinks... so he will
become!
The Hidden Power of Imagination
This New Glory Generation will move in the understanding and
the wonderful release of the creative power of imagination.
They will birth the will and purposes of God in the earth with
mind-boggling authority over the elements in the physical
realm. Jesus considered imagination as reality.
What you imagine in thought as it connects with your
emotions will bring forth a birthing. Remember The Creation
Law of Reproduction is irrevocable and unchangeable. What
you plant will reproduce. It will come to pass. It will come forth!
Supernatural Gateways of Darkness
CAUTION: READER DISCRETION ADVISED
What you are about to read is the accurate account of details
and activities that led to the death of Anton LaVey, who was
the founder of the first church of Satan in Los Angeles,
California. The reason I am including this section in this book
is not to bring attention to, or glorify the occult in any way,
shape, or form, but rather to show the inherent nature and
creative design and capacity of mankind and the reality of
those who practice moving as gateways of darkness. God has
given us a beautiful gift called free will which is the ability to
choose what we will do with the life He has given to us. For
most reading this book we are glorious set free by the Blood of
Jesus Christ and are after the deeper things of God by the Holy
Spirit. Unfortunately, there are those who choose to live life for
the wrong reason and some with full intent of promoting
darkness with the deepest of intention. Each and every one of
us is a gateway of the supernatural either by choice or default.
What you are about to read is the account told by Dave Bryan,
Pastor of the Church of Glad Tidings in Yuba City, California.
WARNING: This testimony will shock many! My hope is that it
will impact you to pursue Jesus Christ to the fullest. Again,
reader discretion is advised.

Anton LaVey – The Real Story


The
Calm Before the Storm Dave Bryan, Pastor of the Church of
Glad Tidings I suppose it’s safe to say that this story started in
Nampa, Idaho in 1957—when I was born. I think that’s how
God weaves His tapestries in our lives; a strand here and a
strand there—some of which may seem a bit out of place at the
time, simply because our perspectives are so myopic …so
limited …so lacking in the depth and contours of God’s bigger
purposes and plans for our futures. Anyway, whenever it
started, the story DEFINITELY shifted into hyperspace in June
of 1997. The catalyst behind what I now recognize as a radical
makeover of my spiritual world-view came with a phone call
from Jack Schisler, an old missionary/prophet guy who had
spent his entire adult life in evangelism and church planting
efforts in Central and South America.
Jack was old; so old that we had already dubbed him,
“the Ancient of Days.” Even though that’s a biblical title for
God, it seemed to fit Jack well; not only because he was
ancient, but also because he reminded us so much of God in
other ways, too. He had been a friend and mentor to my father,
Gail, who had been a Pentecostal pastor for most of his life.
After my father died, Jack had been especially kind and fatherly
to Cheryl and I, who were already busy pastoring The Church
of Glad Tidings, in Yuba City, California. A full eight years
earlier, in ’89, Jack had called from his home in Hemet, Southern
California. He said that he had been praying, when the Spirit of
God impressed on him to give me a book.
I arranged for Jack to visit GT (the common handle for
the Church Of Glad Tidings), and he came with book in hand to
deliver his message to us from the Holy Spirit. It was a simple
message, and can still be found written in Jack’s hand in the
front cover of what I came to call “the book from the Twilight
Zone.” If it weren’t for Jack’s hand-written message, I’m sure
I’d have thrown the whole book away, but – being from Jack, it
was something of value to me as a keepsake. The message was
this: “To Dave & Cheryl, our dear friends that we love: May
this true account equip you to take your rightful place in the
front lines of spiritual warfare! Your friend, Jack Schisler.”
“What a sweet, ol’ guy!” I thought to myself (totally over-
looking the now obvious implications of the prophetic message
he was delivering!) It didn’t take long, though, for me to briefly
peruse the book, and determine conclusively that the subject
matter just wasn’t for me. It was too weird, entirely!
I grew up as a country boy on a small ranch in
Emmett, Idaho. We didn’t even believe in weird, much less
involve ourselves in it. Grandpa “Doc” Bryan used to always
say, “Don’t believe ANYTHING you hear, and only half of
what you see!” As contrary as that is to authentic, biblical
Christianity, it had a certain down-home country appeal to it
that I found attractive, and I had for years prided myself in not
being gullible or easily conned in any matters spiritual or
otherwise. Part of this “can’t be conned” M.O. of mine was a
firm aversion to anything strange or “out of the box.” The
“Book from the Twilight Zone” more than qualified as both; so,
committed to saving it as “memorabilia from people important
to me” I decided to file it in my office library on my “Strange
Books” shelf, where it set neglected for a full eight years before
Jack finally let the prophetic hammer fall on me again.
I have intentionally omitted any complicity of my wife,
Cheryl in this reluctance to explore the Spiritual “X” Files for a
number of reasons. Firstly, it would be a terrible
misrepresentation to do so, as she was waving the “Me! Me!
Me! Pick Me!” flag from the very beginning; and had
specifically asked to read “the book from the Twilight Zone”
on a number of occasions during those eight years of
“conscientious avoidance” on my part. Cheryl has always been
more spiritually sensitive than me, and is a true spiritual
adventurer. She seems to have a keen eye for the obvious in
these things, where I historically haven’t been able to “find my
butt with both hands” in these matters. Anyway, as the
granddaughter of famous ‘50’s healing evangelist, A. A. Allen,
she seems to have inherited a significant share of that mantle
of “faith and power” that Grandpa Allen was so well known for.
So, she was eager for action from the get-go!
That brings us to June of 1997, when Jack again called from
somewhere south of the border with an urgent prophetic
message for me – one that he insisted was too intense to
communicate except in person. He did, however, remind me that
EIGHT YEARS AGO he had delivered a message to me from the
Holy Spirit concerning preparation for “front-line spiritual
warfare!”
At the time of this 2nd commissioning, we were pastoring a
fairly happy church of about 1,000 unsuspecting believers, and
I held a respectable leadership position with a semi-charismatic,
neo-denominational network of sorts whose leadership proudly
viewed themselves as believing the whole Bible and living in
the power of the anointing of Pentecost. As Mark Twain so
aptly observed, “Our reputations greatly exceed us!” And so it
was with me – a religiously educated and seemingly successful
spiritual leader that knew virtually nothing about the reality of
the spirit world, and tragically, had been fairly content to
remain so.
Jack’s follow-up message to me after my 8-year stint
of dereliction of training duty was painfully simple and
straightforward. He said: “David, God’s given you eight years
to prepare for spiritual warfare – which you have neglected
and wasted. So now, you’re about to be face-to-face with the
devil, and you’re not ready for it!”
“Gee, Jack! Just give it to me straight!” I thought to
myself. “And, by the way, which part of that prophecy was
supposed to be for “exhortation, edification or comfort?”
Within a few short days of that “prophetic jack-
slappin’” all hell broke loose at GT. It was then that I really
found myself longing for another leisurely 96-month window
for training and preparation in “spiritual weapons and tactics.”
Instead, we were “up to our ears in alligators” – the Leviathan
type – and none of us had any idea of what we were doing.
Jack’s prophecy of being “face to face with the devil”
broke like a storm the next week in an avalanche of such
surreal, bizarre spiritual experiences that even now, all these
years later, it’s nearly overwhelming just recounting the ordeal.
After being raised in the home of an Assembly of God pastor,
graduating from Portland Bible College, pastoring a flourishing
church, and serving on the Apostolic Leadership Team of
Minister’s Fellowship International, I found myself repenting
of religion, and seriously seeking God in fasting and prayer to
content with bigger-than-life, up close and personal, “in your
face” demonstrations of demonic power that I didn’t realize
were even possible …anywhere …much less in Yuba City,
California!
Although the demonic fire-storm we went through
manifested in and through men, women and children of all
classes and backgrounds from “raised-in-church Christians” to
generational Satanists who were conceived in satanic rituals
and dedicated to Satan from the womb. It all served the same
purpose: To make real in our lives—AND THEIRS—the
awesome reality of the Good News of Isaiah 61:1-3 and Luke
4:18-19!
During this season we learned and grew in our experiential
knowledge of the demonic, the schemes of Satan, and how to
overcome them. We saw well-mannered men and women,
normally in their right mind, suddenly fall on the ground,
contort their bodies, slither like snakes, claw, bite, and rage
profanities in demonic voices. We thought this was the
fulfillment of Jack’s prophetic word about coming, “face-to-
face with the devil.” In reality this was just leading up to it!
The Great War Begins

She seemed much like any other of the folks who came
forward that next Sunday to commit their lives to Christ, and to
receive His forgiveness and saving grace; maybe a bit more
tentative, and obviously from a difficult background, but
nothing that immediately tipped us off to who she was and
where she had come from. She prayed the prayer for
repentance and forgiveness with the others, and even came to
the follow-up room after the service to receive the literature on
“The New Life” and “After Becoming a Christian, What’s
Next?” She said her name was Ramona Jarnagin, and that the
scars and braces on her face were from a recent accident.
Curious as to her background, and sensing her uneasiness in a
church setting, I asked if she understood the importance of
repentance, and if she felt there was anything else she might
need to specifically repent of. She looked sheepishly at the
ground, and nervously tapped her left pointer finger to her lips,
then hesitantly admitted that she had occasionally “sung
karaoke” in bars and clubs before. “Well,” I chuckled, “The
blood of Jesus certainly has the power to wash all THAT
away!” I gave her another little booklet entitled, “Your Church
Family” and invited her to come to the meetings as often as
possible.

Mondays were usually reserved for my day off but I


had to stop by GT to take care of a few things. As we walked
into the lobby and waved to Juanita, Cheryl’s sister, she
motioned to us from the front office, holding the phone up with
one of those, “I think you’d better handle this one” looks in
her eye. On the phone was a desperate woman who claimed
that I had prayed with her the day before, and that her life was
in danger by people who “were trying to kill her again.” It was
little “what’s her name” who prayed to receive Jesus and
confessed to occasionally singing Karaoke in bars. Now she
was crying, frantic, and her story had changed dramatically.
She HADN’T been in an accident. Her face had been badly
broken up by a recent murder attempt from satanic coven
members that she had formerly been in league with. Now, the
same satanic witches who had tried to kill her before were after
her again, to complete the job. It all sounded a bit surreal, and
besides, it was Monday; but when I offered to call the police
for her, she begged me not to, and the phone went dead.
Fortunately, she had already explained to Juanita where she
was hiding, so Cheryl and I drove over to check things out. We
found her hiding in the bushes near the courthouse, and
fetched her from her hiding place. The next thing I knew, Cheryl
had invited her home with us to live in our guest room!

“Hell Motel” - Yuba City, California


We
spent the rest of the day moving her out of “Hell Motel” – as
we learned to call it – and into our place with Cheryl and I and
“the Three Amigos;” James, Josh and Joe. That whole
relocation process took a grand total of about an hour, most of
it spent on the commute. She didn’t own a thing that couldn’t
fit nicely into a few grocery bags. For anyone with a keen eye
for the obvious, it was clear that she was “on the run.” We felt
deep compassion for her, and welcomed her into our home until
she could get squared around again. As for the witches who
were trying to kill her? …well …I’d been pastoring long
enough to know that hard times and desperate circumstances
could get a person at least “half a bubble out of plum” in their
reasoning abilities, and could give rise to vain imaginations of
all shapes and sizes. We’ve also always felt that the best
medicine for most human emotional and spiritual ailments is
sustained doses of God’s love, so we weren’t really too
worried about the witches assassination agenda, or anything
else she might have been “imagining” at the time. We put it in
the same file as her Karaoke story, and figured we’d let God
sort it out.

We moved her into the guest room upstairs, just


across the hall from the boys’ bedrooms, and went to sleep
that night with the joy of heart that comes from helping those
in need. Just a few hours later, we would be introduced to the
demonic conjurings of “the Witching Hour” – which soon
came to be our least favorite time of night.
Promptly at 2 AM we were awakened from a sound
sleep by a God-awful curdling scream that flooded the whole
house. Amidst the demonic shrieks and human cries for help,
we heard Ramona’s body come tumbling head-long down the
first flight of stairs and crash into the wall of the landing with
enough impact to shake the whole house. An instant later, she
was thrown down the second flight of stairs and rolled up
against our bedroom door, shrieking in sheer terror of what was
happening to her! As we jumped out of bed, and scrambled to
turn on the lights and “gird up our loins,” it was obvious that
the spiritual climate of our usually peaceful home had been
invaded by gross evil. Before we were even able to open the
door, we heard Joe, our youngest son (only eleven at the time)
praying in the Holy Spirit and rebuking the devil! Later he
would tell us that the Lord had awakened him before the
incident began, and he was already praying when the spiritual
fire-works erupted!
The Spirit World

The evil spirit that we confronted that first night was a


powerful spirit of murder called “NAK” that Ramona was all
too familiar with. Amidst its curses, threats, and other-worldly
howls, NAK managed to manipulate Ramona long enough to
give us a message from “the dark side.” The message got our
attention, and served as a “heads up” that the fulfillment of
Jack’s prophecy had only just begun! NAK claimed a right to
kill Ramona based on “spiritual alliances” that she had
established by her past involvement in “conjurings,” satanic
rituals, dark covenants, oaths and pledges from her past.
As Cheryl & I and the boys gathered around the
tormented woman at the bottom of the stairs that night,
rebuking demons in Jesus’ name and doing everything we
could to keep the powerful spirit that called itself NAK from
using her own hands, feet & teeth to harm or kill her or one of
us, we knew that this mystery woman had been involved in
something far more dangerous and diabolical than “singing
Karaoke” in a few bars. As we were soon to discover, this was
just the first skirmish of “the great war.”
In this brief overview, it’s really not possible to do
much more than briefly allude to a host of experiences and
discoveries we made during the next tumultuous year. This
amazing true story deserves a full-length book to recount the
astonishing details. Suffice it to say here that Ramona a.k.a.
ReyRey LaVey lived with us for eleven months, and the
maturing process of working her through into “the glorious
liberty of the children of God” (Rom. 8:21) is still underway!
Soon after the NAK ATTACK, we discovered that our “house
guest” was conceived in a sex ritual between Anton LaVey and
an Illini Indian witch for the purpose of producing a
“convergence” between the dark powers of Illini Indian sorcery
and Crowleyan “sex magic” of which the late Anton LaVey was
to become one of the world’s foremost authorities. As we
began to confront the powers of hell and battle them for Rey
Rey’s soul, we also discovered the depths of Satanic Ritual
Abuse to which she had been subjected all of her life, and the
dark and foreboding plans that the Church of Satan had for her.
More significant still, we experienced first-hand the awesome,
raw power of Christ’s redeeming love, and His unswerving
commitment to “save to the uttermost” all that come to God
through faith in Him” (Heb. 7:25). Rey Rey (who legally
changed her name to DeborahJoy Bryan in order to
disassociate with Anton LaVey and her unwanted roots in
Satanism) became an official and permanent part of our family,
and we love her dearly!

During the months preceding the death of Anton


LaVey, DeborahJoy suffered incredibly at the hands of
demonic powers, each of which made some claim to her based
on Satanic Ritual alliances through which she had been
“dedicated” to the Prince of Darkness. Never having an
opportunity to choose otherwise, she had been groomed from
the time of her conception to endure the Crowleyan “Rituals of
Defilement” in preparation to become a Bride of Satan!”
DeborahJoy had already suffered through six of these seven
“Rituals of Defilement,” leading up to the intended “Bride of
Satan” ceremony that was scheduled for the night that Anton
died! But God (and DeborahJoy) had other plans! Desperately
wanting to avoid that horrendous fate, DeborahJoy (still “Rey
Rey” at the time) had decided to escape from the Church of
Satan, or to die trying; and apart from God’s gracious
intervention, she most certainly would have “died trying!” The
Lord, however, had something entirely different in mind for her
– glorious plans that “accompany salvation!” (Heb. 6:9).
It’s difficult to even estimate how many hours of
intense (often mind-boggling) spiritual conflict we slogged
through from June until October of 1997. During these raging
battles with dark forces, we discovered the pervasive reality of
a powerful but unseen spirit world all around us, and learned
how these evil cosmic forces desperately sought a “legal right”
to operate through human-kind as “portals” from their realm to
ours. We discovered that dark spirits (both demonic and
human) could manipulate for their own use ANY physical
bodies – human or animal – that were not protected by a
spiritual power greater than their own! During those days, (and
often since) we witnessed men, women, children, animals and
even inanimate objects (like computers, automobiles, electrical
lighting systems, and stereos) manipulated by dark spiritual
forces of both demonic and human origin in order to
accomplish their nefarious purposes. We discovered that many
of the inexplicable and sometimes bizarre actions of unwitting
people were the direct result of their physical body being
hijacked by a spiritual entity (human, demonic or angelic) that -
much like a thug in a car-jacking – simply forced the rightful
“driver” into the passenger seat in order to temporarily take
control to use the vehicle (their body) for another purpose. In
such cases, very often the victim of the “body-jacking” has no
more awareness of what is transpiring than Balaam’s famous
donkey had of her conversation with the greedy prophet.
From the day the Great War broke upon as, day-by-
day and hour-by-hour we experienced all things weird and
wonderful. All of our beautiful theories about what was and
wasn’t possible, were murdered by a gang of ugly facts! We
began to take at face value what Scripture states as a bold fact:
“All things are possible…” (Matt. 19:26; Mark 10:27; Mark
14:36). We discovered that evil spirits were “legalists” who
skillfully take advantage of every area in our lives where we
have ever “given place to the devil!” (see Eph. 4:27). We
discovered, too, that they are aggressive and persistent in their
claims against us, and will ALWAYS exert themselves to take
as much control in any human life (Christian or not) as that
individual will yield to them, either by complicity with evil or by
ignorance, intimidation and deception. We also saw vividly
demonstrated to us the importance of heeding the warning of
Scripture to “be fully aware of our adversaries’ evil strategies”
(2 Cor. 2:11).
I can’t help but chuckle now, as I think back over my
religious and spiritual education, and muse over how ill-
equipped it left me in regard to understanding and participating
effectively in the realm of spiritual reality. I had graduated with
honors from a reputable Bible college, having earned an “A” in
the offered classes on angelology and demonology; and yet I
knew virtually NOTHING about either camp! I’ll never forget
DeborahJoy’s observation one day as she woefully concluded,
“Gee Dad… for a spiritual leader, you don’t know much about
spirits, do you?” As embarrassing as it was to admit, I knew
she was absolutely right!

The Great Spiritual Show Down at the “Not


so OK Corral”

Those five months leading up to Halloween Eve of


1997 were so filled with spiritual phenomena and sensational
happenings that it’s not possible to even mention most of
those amazing events in a cursory account of this nature. It is,
however, important to recognize a small team of real spiritual
heroes without whose help we simply would have been
overwhelmed. These stalwart spiritual warriors were willing to
risk everything to stand with us in a life and death struggle
against the hords of hell in order to rescue DeborahJoy from
the dark designs that the Black Pope (Anton) and the Church
of Satan had for her. At the top of this list is Cheryl’s sister
Juanita and her husband Duane “Big Dog” Talbott. They
nearly lived with us during those months, along with Jill “Kimi
Bear” Underhill. Eric Kruegar and a handful of other “spiritual
rangers” help pray us through those dark nights at the height
of the intensity of The Great War. Lastly, our precious sons,
James, Josh & Joe were both courageous and cooperative
during the entire “bruhah-hah” – though not always excited
about the nightly “exorcism” and extreme negative spiritual
climate it often brought into the home.
In order to understand just what happened that
Halloween Eve, and how Anton LaVey died that night it’s
important to understand at least the basics regarding the
interaction of spirits on what is often referred to today as the
“astral plane.” Jesus taught in the Gospels that evil spirits
coveted bodies of flesh to express themselves through.
Physical bodies become “portals” of sorts for inter-dimensional
entities to express themselves on the physical plane that we
view as “natural” or “normal.” Jesus taught that disembodied,
evil spirits would continue to search for expression in the
human realm until they found a physical body through which
they could express themselves. In much the same way, occult
adepts (and many others) can “leave” their own bodies and
travel on this “astral plane” to “hi-jack” the body of another
human being, or even an animal. They commandeer this
physical body by force, in much the same way that a thug may
force his way into someone else’s automobile while the driver
is stopped at a traffic light. Even though the vehicle does not
rightfully belong to him, the thug forces the rightful driver out
of the driver’s seat and asserts control. In very similar manner,
“spirits” – whether angelic, demonic or human – are able to pull
off a “body-jacking” in order to use that body as a vehicle of
expression or action in keeping with their specific agenda. In
the case of a human spirit perpetrating the “take-over” of
another physical host body, they remain remotely attached to
their own human bodies through an ethereal “silver cord” of
life. This enables them to “return” to their own bodies after
they’ve finished using the high-jacked body for their intended
purposes.
Understanding this is essential in order to realize what
really happened that Halloween Eve to Anton LaVey, and to
recognize the power of intercessory prayer to thwart the plans
of evil and rescue DeborahJoy from otherwise certain death.
From the time that DeborahJoy moved into our home
and we experienced that first “NAK Attack,” the game was on
with Anton and his Church of Satan cronies. The conflict was a
simple one. Anton had plans for ReyRey to be a contender for
the Bride of Satan, and God had plans for DeborahJoy to be a
part of the Bride of Christ! Neither party was willing to
negotiate, so a power encounter was inevitable from the get-
go! Early on in the conflict we began to have visitors
(including Anton himself) come to our home and church
property in the middle of the night to leave amulets, cursed
corn, fetishes and the carcasses of sacrifices animals on our
property. Bizarre messages were left on the answering
machines both at home and at the church office, threatening to
burn us out; or more threatening still, to rape, torture or murder
us if we continued to interfere with their plans. Armed with a
simple faith in Christ’s omnipotence, and His great love for His
children, we continued on, undaunted by the threats. When
“second-hand” messages weren’t having their desired effect
on us, Anton began to overpower DeborahJoy and speak and
act directly through her, in the fashion described above. Due to
the many years of Satanic Ritual Abuse that DeborahJoy had
suffered through, there were many points of vulnerability
through which she could still be overpowered and manipulated
by Anton. Knowing every weakness, every secret of the past,
every ritual involvement, every implanted fetish, he exploited
her in every way he could, trying desperately to intimidate her
and convince her that any hope of lasting freedom and a new
life in Christ was “too little, too late.”
It was during these intense encounters with Anton
that he would communicate to us his disdain for Christ and all
that Christ represented. In turn, we would communicate to him
the futility of fighting against the Spirit of the Almighty God,
and attempted to share with him the truth of God’s saving
grace which was now so evidently at work in DeborahJoy’s
heart and soul. Because of Anton’s perversity and defiling
language, we soon learned to circumvent his ability to speak
through DeborahJoy’s physical body by literally “stuffing a
sock” in her mouth to muffle his threats and blasphemies, each
time he staged an appearance by “hijacking” her physical
faculties of speech, thought and volition. We soon learned to
restrain DeborahJoy’s body as carefully as possible so as not
to “hurt the host” while we muffled Anton’s ranting. Then we
would read God’s Word to him until he wearied of the spiritual
pummeling, after which he would leave abruptly and defiantly,
following the Silver Cord to return “home” to His own body.
Because this happened so frequently in those days, it afforded
me the rare opportunity to explain the Good News of Christ’s
redeeming love and saving grace to Anton LaVey before his
death, perhaps more thoroughly and clearly than he had ever
heard it before. The night of his death I was reminded of how
often he had heard of Christ’s loving offer of salvation, not just
to DeborahJoy, but to him personally, and had hardened his
heart and refused God’s gracious offer of salvation! Looking
back, I’m very grateful for that opportunity.
Too often Christians engaged in spiritual warfare
begin to think of those involved in occult activities as “the
enemy” instead of seeing them as prisoners of war who have
been “taken captive by the devil to do his will.” Little did we
know at the time that we would see the sober warning of
Proverbs 29:1 realized in a surprisingly dramatic way that
Halloween Eve as Anton “space of repentance” suddenly
expired. The warning couldn’t be stated more succinctly:

“Anyone who refuses to repent after being


warned many times will one day be
suddenly destroyed without another
chance!”

During our skirmishes with Anton and his coven


cronies, though, our minds weren’t on divine judgment, but
upon divine mercy and God’s gracious offer of salvation
promised to anyone who was willing to acknowledge Him as
Lord and Savior. DeborahJoy WAS willing and we were
determined to stand with her – come hell or high water – until
she was free from the terrible chains of her past abuse. Often
we found ourselves praying for other member of her former
satanic coven, as well, and hoping that they would follow
DeborahJoy’s example, and allow the Lord to translate them
out of the Kingdom of Darkness and into the Kingdom of
God’s love, life, light and glorious liberty!
Anton had, during our frequent exchanges, adopted
the habit of calling me “Preacher Boy,” and of reminding me
that I was no match for him in the realm of spiritual phenomena.
He often reminded me that he was a world-class sorcerer, and
that I was a virtual “nobody” who served a weakling savior. He
saw Christ as a loser, who died in humiliation on a cross
because He was too weak to defend Himself against the Dark
Lord, Satan. To Anton, the Gospel account of the resurrection
of Christ was a pathetic attempt of His followers to “save face”
after the humiliating defeat of Christ’s crucifixion. Anton had
boasted all along that when the time for the Halloween Rituals
came that we would see whose god was the most powerful,
Satan or Christ.
He also openly claimed that during the up-coming
Bride of Satan ceremony scheduled for Halloween morning that
his daughter (Rey Rey / DeborahJoy) WOULD be present,
either as “the Bride of Satan” or as a blood sacrifice to him. He
often taunted us with this horrific scenario, claiming that if our
influence caused DeborahJoy to refuse to be Satan’s bride,
that her blood would be on our hands, not his! He seemed to
exude confidence that they would be able to apprehend
DeborahJoy when the time came, and to do with her whatever
they pleased.
By then, it was obvious to us that Anton had
significant demonic powers, and that no amount of “natural”
precautionary measures could keep him away. Our confidence,
though, was in Christ alone, not in human ingenuity or even in
spiritual gifts bestowed by the Holy Spirit to help us in the
fray. During these dark months of spiritual conflicts we
encountered scores of evil spirits claiming the right to
DeborahJoy’s soul based on everything from implanted
fetishes, blood rituals, coven oaths and conjurings, blood-line
inheritance, and soul ties based on sex rituals and the like.
Despite Anton’s frequent rantings and the unrelenting assault
of the demons day and night, we kept our hopes bright by
contemplating the “great and precious promises” of Scripture
and frequently reminiscing on the indefatigable, never failing,
unconquerable love of God that NOTHING (including demons)
can separate us from! The comforting words from Romans
chapter eight were like a strong tower of refuge during those
days (see Rom. 8:31-39). Those precious words ministered new
life, strength, courage and resolve to us over and over and
over again.

As Halloween Eve of that year approached, a small group of


us fasted and prayed for the strategy of heaven to combat the
nefarious plans of Anton LaVey, Leviathan, and their
underlings in the Church of Satan regarding DeborahJoy. We
knew they fully anticipated success, albeit without good
reason. Simple logic from an unbiased observer would
undoubtedly look toward a different outcome resulting from a
spiritual power encounter between the two kingdoms, solely
based on the fact of God’s recurring interventions in any and
all of the cults previous attempts to abduct her. I raised this
point one night to Anton, as he once again “hijacked”
DeborahJoy’s body and managed to punch me in the face
before anyone realized what was going on. As he laughed at
me, mocked Christ and demeaned me as the stupid “Preacher
Boy” who had no spiritual prowess and was no match for his
amassed powers as a black sorcerer, I asked what to me was a
glaringly obvious question:
“Anton, if you have such great power, and we have
so little – as you often boast – then what’s keeping you from
taking DeborahJoy from us? Why not just sweep her away
from us now with your vast, supernatural powers, and be done
with it?” I asked. Though his answer was obviously accurate, it
was also quite apparent that he had failed to think through its
undeniable implications. His answer…
“You’re nothing, Preacher Boy! I’d destroy you in an
instant if it weren’t for those damned angels all around you!”
All it took that night to make Anton leave in a fit of rage was a
simple and obvious response:
‘In other words, Anton, you would LOVE to destroy
us, and abduct DeborahJoy, but YOU JUST CAN’T SEEM TO
GET ‘ER DONE because of the continual intervention of the
hosts of heaven, that surround and protect us, RIGHT?!”
We all knew it to be true! Many times we had seen the
Hosts of Heaven miraculously intervene to protect us from
danger and from certain death.
Anton and company had made it very plain that
Halloween Eve would be the scheduled showdown, so our
team was prayed up and most of us had been fasting (again!).
We figured they would plan some sort of a power play to
abduct DeborahJoy that evening just before the scheduled
Bride of Satan ceremony during the Witching Hour beginning
at midnight as October 30th transitioned into the 31st. For a
counter-offensive we had planned to meet at our place with our
SWAT (Spiritual Weapons And Tactics) Team at 9:00 PM on
the 30th, and to have a 3-hour stint of robust prayer and
intercession to preempt whatever they had planned. Knowing
they were desperate, and having been already threatened
repeatedly injury and death, we were prepared both naturally
and spiritually for “whatever” they planned to bring to the
fight. We had also alerted close family and friends both locally
and abroad to pray with us that night, and were later to learn
that the Holy Spirit had specifically stirred up other
intercessors and spiritual warriors who were prompted to pray
specifically against the evil strategies of the Church of Satan
that same night.
Cheryl and I were keeping a close eye on Deborah,
and “Big Dog,” Juanita, “Kimi Bear” (Jill Underhill) and Ernie
(Eric Krueger) had all tried to get some sleep in preparation of
the inevitable “shoot out at the OK Corral” that we were all
anticipating that night. Just 30 minutes or so before the team
was scheduled to begin arriving, Deborah Joy came down the
stairs from her room and announced cheerily that she was
going to walk down the street to the 7/11 to get some coffee
before the action started for the night.
“Say WHAT?” I asked her. Reminding her that there
was a “winner takes all” showdown underway, and that her
very life was at stake in it, I sent her back up to her room to
pray, but instantly told Cheryl that something “wasn’t right”
with DeborahJoy. We KNEW she would NEVER had made that
suggestion on her own that night. Being there alone with her in
a very big, old Victorian house, I asked Cheryl to guard the
back door and holler if DeborahJoy tried to leave the house
that way, while I positioned myself on the porch watching the
front door.
Two police cars suddenly screeched into our drive-
way with lights and sirens on. As I stood to inquire why they
were there, to my shock and horror DeborahJoy came bursting
through our front door... with Anton in “full control” of all of
her faculties! She rushed wildly past me, screaming for the
police to help “rescue” her from us. “Kidnappers! Abusive!
They’ve been holding me as a prisoner here, trying to brain-
wash me with all their religious shit!” she screamed (in that low,
raspy voice that I had come to recognize from Anton’s “body-
jacking” episodes)! She ran like a terrified, abused child across
the yard toward the officers. Naturally, I jumped up and ran to
catch her, and was very nearly shot in the process. The Yuba
City police officers “pulled down” on me, and ordered me firmly
back to the porch, as they showed DeborahJoy to the safety of
one of their squad cars.
The attending policemen, now joined by a third squad
car and fourth officer, sternly announced that they were
responding to a “911” emergency call from our residence by a
Deborah Bryan, who stated that she had been kidnapped and
held against her will for months by a dangerous religious
fanatic that was trying to force her to become one of his
followers! As I tried desperately to reason with them, I couldn’t
help admire the diabolical scheme that had been contrived.
There was simply no natural defense against it! As I blubbered
about DeborahJoy not being “in her right mind” they
countered by asking if I was a licensed psychologist or medical
doctor, and went quickly on to remind me that – even if I was –
it wasn’t legal to detain another adult against their will. “It’s
what we call ‘kidnapping,’ Mr. Bryan, and it’s a very serious
criminal offense!” they said, as they ordered me to a sitting
position on the front porch step.
As they “huddled” to determine whether or not to
immediately arrest me, I quickly called a co-worker and very
close friend, Lou Bininger. Lou and I had worked closely
together for a decade on the pastoral leadership team of the
Church of Glad Tidings. His official job description for GT was
to serve as “Community Liaison” for the church, helping to
fulfill our ministry motto to “Find a Need and Meet It, & Find a
Hurt and Heal It” in our bi-county area. Louie’s simply “the
best” at what he does, and most of the area emergency
responders know him as a “Community Service” guy who
oversees several chaplaincy programs, helps single moms,
parolees and juvenile delinquents, and heads up the bi-county
Trauma Intervention Program. As such, he’s a “frequent flier”
at crime scenes, accidents and any other traumatic happenings
about town. Most emergency responders aren’t even aware
that he has an office at the church, and that’s the way we’ve
intentionally kept it. So, I called Lou and asked him to get here
ASAP!
Fortunately for all the “good guys” the officers were
in a bit of a quandary as to how best to handle the situation.
They were sure about what to do with DeborahJoy. They
would escort her away from the premises to wherever she
wanted to go! But there was anything but consensus over
what to do with “the Pastor!” One of the officers attended Glad
Tidings. Like most of the church attendees at the time, he had
no idea who DeborahJoy was, or what danger she was in. As I
tried to explain the danger she was in, it suddenly sounded
bizarre even to me! How was I to explain to rationalistic,
western-minded law enforcement officers who are TRAINED to
be skeptical that DeborahJoy was not actually in control of her
own body, or that the voice raging out of her? How could I
possibly convince them that Cheryl and I had lovingly
protected DeborahJoy for the past 5 months, and mercifully
guarded her from the sinister plans of the Church of Satan?
Had it all been in vain? Had the satanic sorcerer finally won the
war?
Finally, Lou showed up. Praise God! Maybe all wasn’t
lost! Naturally, they welcomed Lou’s professional help as a
respected trauma counselor, and allowed him to speak to me. I
tried to give him the skinny in a brief and amazing overview of
what was transpiring. As one of my closest friends and a co-
pastor with me at GT, naturally Lou knew some of the story,
but we only had precious seconds to forge a plan. I was about
to be arrested for felony kidnapping and who knows what all
else, and DeborahJoy was about to be led away to her horrific
demise and the hands of a group of frenzied Satan
worshippers. While Lou, Cheryl and I breathed a desperate
prayer for God’s help and the officers debated whether or not
there was a recourse other than arresting me on the spot that
night, Anton sat in the back of a squad car, scoffing at us with
triumphant disdain, and flipping us off with both hands. We
could hear him laughing out loud as he mocked the idiocy of
the Preacher Boy and the impotence of the Preacher Boys
“pathetic God.”
In a flash of thought that was definitely “smarter than
me” I slipped Cheryl’s cell phone into Lou’s hand and said,
“Lou, it’s imperative that you slip this phone into
DeborahJoy’s jacket pocket without Anton knowing it, and
that you SOMEHOW convince the police to NOT take me to
jail tonight.”
“I’ll do my best,” Lou said. And anyone that knows
Lou Bininger knows that “his best” is a heck of a lot!
Anton was more than a little surprised when Lou suddenly
swung the squad car door open and slid in next to him? Her?
Anyway, Lou took one for the team that night as Anton raged
and sworn and pummeled him with DeborahJoy’s little fists and
feet. To any bystander with “a keen eye for the obvious” it was
immediately clear that Lou’s presence in the squad car was
CAUSING trauma, not alleviating it! The officers rushed to pull
him out before there was any serious blood-letting. Cool-head
Lou ended the drama by his succinct professional evaluation:
“Deborah Joy was DEFINITELY having a traumatic night, but
she did, after all, have a long mental health history, and her
accusations may all be a figment of her troubled imagination.”
“Meanwhile,” said the wise counselor, “Pastor Bryan
is well respected in the community, and certainly posed no
threat to anyone if allowed to remain at home until the
accusations could be sorted through with more certainty.” The
Holy Spirit “did His thing” and suddenly, everybody agreed
that Lou’s assessment was a wonderful solution to an
otherwise messy situation.
I was STERNLY lectured regarding the seriousness of the
charges leveled against me by DeborahJoy, and forbidden to
follow her or search for her that night. They would not disclose
where they would drop her, simply saying they would be
willing to take her anywhere she thinks she needs to go
tonight, within reasonable driving limits. We had an
understanding.
As Lou stood with me and Cheryl on our porch, the officers
escorted DeborahJoy’s body away into the dark of the night
toward her satanic executioners, with Anton’s spirit still
smugly in control as he triumphantly waved to us a double-
fisted version of the “screw you” salute through the back
window of the squad car. If we had ever for even an instant
mistakenly relied in any way on our own wisdom or ingenuity
in the spiritual war that was raging for DeborahJoy’s soul, it
was painfully clear to us all in that unforgettable moment that –
apart from the sovereign wisdom and intervening power of
God, DeborahJoy’s life would be snuffed out, and we would
have to console ourselves in the fact that her many sins had
been forgiven, and that her name was written in the Lamb’s
Book of Life. Her misery would finally be over, and her eternal
reward would be enjoying the pleasures of Christ’s presence,
age without end.
Still... it just wasn’t right!
As we paced the floors and cried out to the Lord, I knew I
couldn’t stand by and allow DeborahJoy’s blood to be shed in
a sacrifice to the powers of evil that night. I simply couldn’t
live with that. A strong anointing came over me. It may sound a
bit “bigger than life,” but that’s just the way it happened. I told
Lou and Cheryl to go in Lou’s car to “Hell Motel” and watch
for any suspicious happenings. Anton often drove around
with his satanist cronies in a big black limousine, so we were all
keeping an eye out for that. Somewhere, we figured that they
had a rendezvous location. There, in all probability, members of
the cult would be gathered around the High Priest’s lifeless
body, awaiting Anton’s return from his nefarious “body-
snatching” antics on the astral plane. This he wouldn’t be able
to do until DeborahJoy’s body was in the custody of members
of the coven, who could then subdue her and abduct her to
“the Ranch” in the foothills near Grass Valley, some 40 miles
away. Hmmm.... We needed some SERIOUS divine
intervention!
As Lou and Cheryl headed for Hell Motel, I went a bit “Old
Testament!” I strapped on my Kimber 1911 .45 and holstered a
Glock .45 with several high capacity magazines. If DeborahJoy
was going to die at the hands of wicked men that night, I had
decided she wouldn’t die alone. I headed out of town toward
The Ranch scanning every shadow for the black limousine, and
seriously hoping that God had a better idea. Thankfully, He
did!
I was still on the outskirts of Marysville when I remembered
the phone Lou had slipped in DeborahJoy’s jacket pocket. I
quickly dialed Cheryl’s number, despite the risk of
imprisonment if the officers choose to call me on it. They had
forbidden me to attempt any further contact with DeborahJoy
that night. Still, it was technically my wife’s phone I was
dialing. I decided it was worth the risk!

The Death of the Dark Pope

Even if I live to be 1,000 years old, I’ll never forget the brief
exchange that followed, or the overwhelming sense of divine
impetus that came over me simultaneously. Before any words
were exchanged, I recognized Anton’s malevolent laugh. He
was gloating in pride, and seething with contempt for Christ
and any who would seek to honor Him. I can easily imagine it
was the same blind arrogance that caused his dark master to
boast of his clever scheme to crucify Christ 2,000 years ago! He
seemed to be intoxicated with pride and a false sense of satanic
superiority as he cursed me in utter disdain, and mocked and
blasphemed Christ Jesus, calling Him a pathetic weakling, and a
fool! Then Anton exulted, “We’ll drink DeborahJoy’s blood
tonight in a ritual in honor of Satan! Where’s the power of your
pathetic Christ now, Preacher Boy?! You lose, just like I said
you would!”
The Black Pope was still laughing as the phone went dead;
but as the phone went dead in my hand, something far more
powerful came alive in my heart! I suddenly was overcome with
a knowledge that came from God. This was just like the
crucifixion scenario! Christ allowed Satan to imagine he had
won, and then, when he least expected it, dramatically turned
the tables on him in an excruciating defeat that the Almighty
had carefully engineered all along!
As I was praying for God’s specific direction, my cell phone
rang. It was Lou, who had staged himself in the shadows near
the infamous “Hell Motel,” and had just seen Deborah cross
the street and enter the front door of the building, still moving
sluggishly, as if in a trance. I was still only minutes away! As I
spun my car around and headed back into town, I quickly
called Jill, who by that time was at our house and was keeping
the team updated as to what was going on.
The strategy came “clear and simple!” Anton was
planning to take DeborahJoy’s life, but she was still in town,
right under our noses, and he was still “tip-toeing through the
tulips” in the astral plane. We had the team focus in agreement
on one prayer petition! Anton had done much more than
harassed, mocked and threatened us! He planned
DeborahJoy’s murder, and had blasphemed Christ! We simply
asked God for DeborahJoy’s life in exchange for Anton’s and
petitioned the Lord to “sever the silver cord.”
Within a few quick minutes I had stopped my car in the road
in front of Hell Motel. Lou and Cheryl were already in position,
interceding and watching the back exit of the building. As I
stood there in the road that night with the engine running and
the door open, hands and heart lifted to heaven, I joined my
faith with the others praying for God to intervene to do what
needed done. Suddenly, the front doors burst open, and
DeborahJoy came dashing out into my arms! “Help me,
Daddy!” she screamed. She was back in control, with no
spiritual hitch-hikers or high-jackers aboard.
DeborahJoy and I were in the car and out of the
neighborhood in a hot second; Lou and Cheryl right behind us.
It all happened so fast that there wasn’t time to compare notes.
We just leapt in the car and saturated the neighborhood with
our sudden absence. On the way back across the river from
Marysville to Yuba City, we were talking a million miles a
minute, Deborah didn’t remember a thing from the time of
prayer we had with her in the front room that evening about
8:00 PM until she suddenly came back to her conscious
awareness in an upstairs room in “Hell Motel.” She was
terrified! Things were frantic! The atmosphere was charged
with the oppressive, stifling evil that is always attendant in a
gathering of witches, warlocks and dark sorcerers. But there
was something else pervading the gathering. There was
massive confusion, mixed with anger and stark terror.
Something had gone terribly wrong! The High Priest had
“bounced!” The coven members and hierarchy of the Church
of Satan were gathered around Anton’s body, frantically
reciting mantras, invoking power demons and attempting to
pool their dark powers in a convergence that would somehow
enable their High Priest to re-enter his physical body and
resume his responsibilities in the important affairs of the
evening. In all the confusion and frantic attempts to save the
Black Pope, they hadn’t even noticed when DeborahJoy came
back to her senses, recognized where she was, and dashed out
the apartment door, down the steps and out into the street!
Thank God no one came after her. I was, after all, still “armed
and dangerous!”
Soon after we were home behind locked doors and in the
relative safety of our front room praising and worshipping the
Lord for His mercies to DeborahJoy, she was suddenly
overcome by a spirit so powerful and so perverse that its
manifestation brought a sudden change in the entire
atmosphere of our home! DeborahJoy’s eyes bulged, elliptical
and fiery red. The spirit that spoke through her lamented that
we had killed the High Priest! Other than Deborah’s brief
assessment of the frantic happenings in the upper room of Hell
Motel, this was the first confirmation that we had of what had
actually transpired. The spirit identified itself as Leviathan,
Anton LaVey’s “power spirit” who was angered by Anton’s
unexpected, and his own sudden need for reassignment in a
human accomplice or partner in evil. His appearance was very
brief, but his message very clear. Anton was dead!
Minutes later, Deborah’s still-vulnerable soul was high-
jacked by another spirit, this one bewailing the passing of
Anton by directly and specifically denouncing us as
“murderers” for killing her father! The specifics of the
accusation narrowed down the possible sources to Zeena or
Karla. A quick inquiry indentified the “spiritual high-jacker” to
be Zeena, to which we responded that we had implored the
Lord to severe Anton’s silver cord in order to rescue
DeborahJoy, and that since she, too, was trespassing on the
astral plane that she was in grave danger of the same! Realizing
the imminent threat, she instantly left, and has not to our
knowledge ever attempted a body-jacking maneuver of that
sort against DeborahJoy from that day to this.

We spent the rest of that unforgettable morning of October


31st, 1997, worshipping Jesus, and reveling in His great mercy
and grace to those who love Him. The months following that
were filled with hours of mentoring DeborahJoy, and praying
for the healing of her broken heart, and the renewing of her
mind. All these years later, we are honored that she still calls us
Dad & “Sissy” (her nick-name for Cheryl, who is just two days
older than her) and considers herself a permanent part of the
Bryan family. She is happily married to Billy Goodnight, who is
our dear friend, and a part of the family now too! They live here
in the Yuba City area, and are serving God together and
attending the Church of Glad Tidings. Her daughter, Neecy, is
also happily married, and raising a Christian family north of us
in the Redding area. Their entire story remains one of the
greatest testimonies of God’s amazing grace and prevailing
love that I have ever heard of! We continue to share the
valuable lessons that we learned during those days with
thousands of inquirers in this country and abroad through our
Isaiah 61 Deliverance Conferences, School of Deliverance, and
Tearing Down Stronghold’s materials and seminars. While we
remain grateful for all we learned during “The Great War!” we
remain anxious to become ever more knowledgeable, and
effective in helping people escape from the prison houses of
spiritual torment and bondage, and experiencing ever-
increasing realms of “the glorious liberty of the children of
God!”

To the stories recounted above we could add many others.


Instances of corporal bodies being pulled through physical
structures, as was the case when evil spirits “pulled”
Deborah’s legs through the firewall of our Chevy van all the
way up to her knees, yet when we rebuked them in Jesus’
name, Deborah was miraculously pulled back into her seat with
NO HARM done to either her legs or to the firewall of our van!
Deborah’s legs went through the firewall (area below dash,
above the floorboard) of the van. She was being physically
pulled against her will into the spirit world. She was screaming,
“I am a natural person and you can not do this to me” all the
while she was disappearing through the floorboard of the van...
finally it broke and she returned to the original position in her
car seat. Of course I was rebuking hell and praying in tongues
frantically.

These stories are never questioned in many of the nations of


the world who hold a more spiritual world-view than the
“enlightened” nations of the West, where the great majority of
the pastors and spiritual leaders criticize them as sensational
and unreasonable. While we “amen” the stories of Jesus
walking on the water or passing through the walls of buildings
while in fully-physical form after His resurrection, why are we
so quick to say, “That’s impossible!” at the hearing of similarly
miraculous accounts today? These clear examples of the
“higher laws” of the spirit world should pave the way for any
honest mind to admit to the reality of spiritually transcended
physics being an expected reality in our day. Once there, the
details are just that… DETAILS! Yet despite the frequent
biblical examples of transcended physics, the traditions of
western Christendom have been distorted by unabashed
skepticism and a pervasive reliance on a rationalistic world
view to the point that such accounts are nearly always written
off – even by “Bible believing spiritual leaders” – as
somewhere between fanciful imagination and blatant heresy.
And because the church has largely relegated itself to the
status of the “unbelievers” in this transcendent realm, many
spiritually famished souls have found higher experiences in the
dark realms of the occult.

What you've just read is a real life account. I did not “dummy
this up” for the sake of the readers of this book. We live in a
supernatural world, which is both good and evil, light and dark.
The western world has subjugated its authority in the realm of
the spirit to the devil because we flat refuse to accept anything
we cannot wrap our small western mindset around. We have
been taught that if we can't see it or touch it, it doesn't exist.
This must change! It’s time to get real. The world has been
running to the occult because the church had not rightly
represented God. The good news is that there is a generation
arising that understands its position in Christ, and is not afraid
to move in it. It's time for the real church of Jesus Christ to rise
and shine for our Light has come. [21]

CHAPTER 6
Anointing, Light and Cre ative Powe r

I'm sure the previous chapter was a stretch for many. However,
the reality of the supernatural world is real regardless of what
most of the church chooses to believe. The Lord is preparing a
people, an army of God that will move with clear revelation and
purpose in this generation—a people that will move in the light
of His love in the last days. If you desire to be one of these,
then you must abide in, walk in, and bear the fruit of love for
personal transformation. When love flows from you, it is
transformed into a power of light. When love turns into light
and the light passes through you, you will experience the
healing and transformation of that power—the light of God will
charge through every atom of your being because love
becomes a fantastic power of light. Supernatural light is
healing, revelation, knowledge, understanding, and insight that
flow from your mind and your lips as love and light.

Jesus and the Dancing Glory


During another series of meetings held at the Transformation
Center Church International with my good friend Andrey
Shapovalov, it became clear to all that a new level of Glory was
being offered to the church and the expectation was high. On
first night of the event during worship, I saw the Lord enter the
room dancing. He was spinning and twirling around the room
and it was clear that He was happy. As I watched Him dance
around the room He approached me and leaned into me
grinning from ear to ear. He said, “Jeff, I'm dancing with my
brothers and sisters!” I watched as He went from one person
to the another and leaned into them. Then, as if to show me
something new, the Lord approached me again. This time, as
He leaned into me I saw on the front of His robe a golden
menorah burning with seven flames. These flames were not
orange in appearance, but were burning with the seven colors
of the rainbow. Jesus smiled at me and danced off through the
crowd. I knew exactly what He was showing me.
The Menorah and the Seven Spirits of God
The Seven Spirits of God are the Sevenfold Radiations of the
Spirit in Zechariah 3. Radiation is light and there are seven
spectrums of light that we know of in the natural. The Lord was
showing me these “Seven Radiations” of the Menorah were
actually the Seven Spirits of God or the Seven Colors,
Anointings, Angels, and Spirits burning before the throne of
God. Jesus was dancing in the room with all Seven Spirits
burning in His chest as the firstborn of a family of burning
ones. As we are born again and filled with the Holy Spirit, there
are actually levels of light or revelation in which we grow. We
must be baptized in the Holy Ghost and Fire in order to burn
with the Seven Flames. I want to add that these Seven Flames
or Spirits of God are more than just anointings. They are indeed
the Holy Spirit of God.
The following is a vision that was given to Lana that will help
define what we are talking about here.
Lana's Vision with the 6.3-Karat Stone

In the
meeting at Transformation Center, Seattle on the last night,
Lana was caught up into a vision and saw a bright cloud that
had come down into the room in the appearance of a spiral or a
whirlwind that was spinning very fast. As it was spinning,
people were caught up into this cloud and would become
completely transparent. Lana could see a menorah burning on
the inside of each of the people. Then a second cloud whirled
into the room and entered into the people and the burning
lights on the menorah would come alive inside of them. In the
meeting we began to shout “Grace! Grace!” from Zechariah 4
and God said, “Now is the time that I will release through my
Body, a Glory in the earth that has never been seen. For my
Body will burn with the Seven Spirits together in unity and
revival will sweep across the nations.”
The Lord said that we should not keep what we have to
ourselves, but give it away. In the vision, angels came down in
the meeting and placed a seal on the foreheads of the ones that
were burning with the Seven Spirits of God. The angels said,
“These are the Overcomers.” When the angels would place a
seal on the people, explosions would be released all over the
earth. The more the seals were placed upon the people’s
foreheads, the more explosions would happen. The Lord was
showing that in the Glory realm, not only one flame would burn
as it did in previous anointings or levels, but in this season of
the new level, all Seven flames must burn together. Only then
would Revival go Global.

Seven Spirits Burning


The Seven Sprits of God, according to Zechariah 3 and 4 are
the Seven Spirits burning before the Throne of God. In Isaiah
11:2 they are the Seven Spirits of the Lord. In Revelation they
are greeted by the Seven Spirits and are the Seven Angels
(Messengers) In 2 Chronicles, they are the Eyes of the Lord
that roam throughout the earth.
In the natural, we understand that there are seven spectrums of
light and that these lights are represented in the color of the
rainbow. They are - Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo
and Purple. When put together these seven colors make up
white light. In the book of Zechariah it says that the Seven
Spirits of God are the “Sevenfold Radiations of God” (Zech.
3:9).
Radiation is light. These “Radiations” are colors that can be
identified in the realm of the Spirit. Now there is natural light
and heavenly light. These Seven colors work in tandem with
each other in the natural. If you place the seven colors of the
rainbow upright on the menorah, a mystery is revealed. Here
you can see how these Seven colors and anointings work
together in connection with one another with the Middle Green
flame being the center shaft of the Menorah called “The Spirit
of the Lord shall Rest upon” in Isaiah 11:2. This can also be
found in Isaiah 61:1 and Luke 4:18 where Jesus spoke: The
Spirit of the Lord God rests upon Me, because He has
anointed me to Preach.
The Spirit of the Lord is the green Center color in the rainbow
and the Center Shaft of the Menorah that all the other colors
and flames flow from. The Spirit of Wisdom (Red) and the Spirit
of Understanding (Purple) flow together as Wisdom and
Revelation. The Spirit of Counsel (Orange) and the Spirit of
Might (Indigo) flow together as instruction and power. The
Spirit of Knowledge (Yellow) and the Spirit of the Fear of the
Lord (Blue) flow together as the Fear of the Lord being the
beginning of Knowledge. Let me explain further.
Building from a Heavenly Blueprint
Exodus 25:31-39 examines God's heavenly pattern for the lamp
stand in Moses’ tabernacle:
You shall also make a lamp stand of pure
gold; the lamp stand shall be of hammered
work. Its shaft, its branches, its bowls, its
ornamental knobs, and flowers shall be of
one piece. And six branches shall come out
of its sides: three branches of the lamp stand
out of one side, and three branches of the
lamp stand out of the other side. Three bowls
shall be made like almond blossoms on one
branch, with an ornamental knob and a
flower, and three bowls made like almond
blossoms on the other branch, with an
ornamental knob and a flower – and so for
the six branches that come out of the lamp
stand. On the lamp stand itself, four bowls
shall be made like almond blossoms, each
with its ornamental knob and flower. And
there shall be a knob under the first two
branches of the same, a knob under the
second two branches of the same, and a
knob under the third two branches of the
same, according to the six branches that
extend from the lamp stand. Their knobs and
their branches shall be of one piece; all of it
shall be one hammered piece of pure gold.
You shall make seven lamps for it, and they
shall arrange its lamps so that they give
light in front of it. And its wick-trimmers and
their trays shall be of pure gold. It shall be
made of a talent of pure gold, with all these
utensils.
Nothing even remotely similar had ever been built. There were
no other pattern sources or resources for the lamp stand.
Moses had to trust the pattern God gave him. The Lord wants
to give new things to the Church now, too, so we don't look
like the other entities of the world. Patterns that come straight
down from Heaven are unique, astonishing, and new. When we
build from heavenly blueprints, we confound the principalities
of the earth and release the manifold wisdom of God.

Manifesting Fruit and Gifts


The lamp stand had seven pipes similar to the ones Zerubbabel
saw that symbolized the seven Spirits of God. However, this
lamp stand also had nine different ornaments on the pipes: the
three flowers, the three knobs, and the three almond blossom-
shaped bowls. Each one of those nine items represent the nine
fruits described in Galatians 5:22-23, and the nine gifts of the
Holy Spirit examined in 1 Corinthians 12:8-10.
When we flow in the seven Spirits of God, the world will see
the fruits and gifts of the Spirit flow through us as never
before. The world will see a mighty demonstration of God's
power, wisdom, and might. If the world ever needed to see the
fruit of the Holy Spirit, it's now.

Christ's Divine Nature


“You shall also make a lamp stand of pure gold. The lamp
stand shall be of hammered work.” Do you think they took
each pipe, cut them out, and then welded them together? No!
The Lord was specific that it was not to be molded. They had
to hammer it into a lamp stand from one solid piece of gold. The
craftsperson would need divine wisdom to create this beautiful
piece.
Simon Peter tells us in 2 Peter 1:3-9, that we may be partakers of
His divine nature by His divine power, but we're also going to
go through challenges that require patience and long-suffering.
The tempering work of the Holy Spirit brings forth a divine
union of the stature of Christ in us, so that we will begin to
flow with the sevenfold Spirit of God through our lives. It took
a lot of hammering to mold the candlestick. As lights on the hill
(see Matt. 5:14), the candlestick (or lamp stand), we're going to
have to go through some transformation, too. However, God
promises us the fullness of the Holy Spirit, and when we flow
in the sevenfold flow, there will be no limitations.
The center shaft of the lamp stand is Jesus. He is the Mediator
(see 1 Tim. 2:5), the One from whom flows oil to give light. The
branches are connected. This signifies the divine union with
Christ that brings the flow of oil to the six branches.
As Christians, we have received the Holy Spirit of God whose
mission it is to bring forth the nature of Him who has come to
dwell in us. He enables us to become partakers of the
sevenfold Spirit of God. Just as in the lamp stand we see six
branches and then one center pipe, the number six represents
the number of man. One represents Jesus. There are a total of
seven then, which means perfection, fullness, or completeness.
This also represents the union of Christ. It is no longer I who
lives but He who lives in me. We become one with Him. Apart
from Him, we can do nothing (see John 15:5). All of the pipes—
wisdom and understanding, counsel and might, and knowledge
and the fear of the Lord—are dependent on the center pipe,
Jesus. We must stay plugged into the center pipe, the presence
of Jesus, because communion with Him will release fresh oil
and fresh anointing and keep the seven flames burning in our
lives.
All of this was a shadow of what is to come. Through the
divine union by the Holy Spirit, we become partakers of His
divine nature. We know that He received the Spirit of the Lord
without measure. Jesus received the fullness of the seven
Spirits of God (see Rev. 3:1). He is the Head (see Eph. 1:22-23),
and the unlimited anointing was poured out upon Him. That
same unlimited anointing is for us today.

We are Burning Lamps


It's clear from Revelation 4:5, that the burning lamp stand and
His seven Spirits are one and the same: “And from the throne
came flashes of lightning and the rumble of thunder. And in
front of the throne were seven lamp-stands with burning
flames. They are the seven Spirits of God” (NLT).
All of the lamp stands we've covered so far are the same;
they're God's lamp stands. We are the lamp stand, and when we
plug into the fullness of the seven Spirits of God, we are that
glorious burning lamp that stands before the throne in the
presence of the Father.

Seated in Heavenly Places


Every spiritual blessing has been given to us in the heavenly
places (see Eph. 1:3). We are not going to grovel in the earthly
realm but we are going to be seated in the heavenly places with
the Lord. Every believer will be ministering out of the Throne
Room. Jesus ministered out of that realm. We will, too.
What flows out of the Throne Room? Rivers flow. What was
before the throne? These seven functions or operations of the
Holy Spirit always come in pairs after the Spirit of the Lord
upon us. I believe the pairing ties in somehow to the pairing of
the olive trees Zerubbabel saw in his vision. Counsel pairs with
might, wisdom with understanding, and knowledge of the Lord
with the fear of the Lord. It's awesome! It's by these pairings,
His divine power, and the fullness of the Holy Spirit that we
will be partakers of His divine nature.
We're entering a time when we won't want anything but the
heart and mind of the Father. We are going through a
transformation and we have to embrace it, as Paul stresses in
Colossians 1:28-29: “Him we preach, warning every man and
teaching every man in all wisdom, that we may present every
man perfect in Christ Jesus. To this end I also labor, striving
according to His working which works in me mightily.”
Are you hungry for transformation? I know I am. I want to
know, hear, see, and be like Jesus. Embrace His work in you so
that He can work through you mightily. Embrace the ministry of
the Holy Spirit and allow the sevenfold flow to manifest in your
life.
As we become one in this divine union, we become obedient to
His voice, and every time we submit our will to His, there's a
union. We engage spirit to Spirit, and this engages the King
and enthrones Him in the kingdom of our hearts. When we
plug into the center pipe, we receive the fresh oil of Psalms
92:10, and as the fresh oil pours in from the Word, the
anointing pours into the vat and we become partakers of that
rich flow of the unlimited anointing of the Holy Spirit.
Fresh oil feeds the flames—the seven flames atop the seven
pipes. It has to be a continuous flow of oil for the seven flames
to burn. We trim the wick and replenish the oil in perpetual
communion with Him, and the flame burns in divine union with
Him. As we advance in the flow of the sevenfold Spirits of God,
the fullness of the Holy Spirit, the flow increases. The greater
the flow of oil—the greater the flame. The greater the flame—
the greater the favor and influence.

Seven Spirits of God Overview


The Holy Spirit wants to bring forth the mature stature of
Christ in us through the sevenfold functions of His Spirit
flowing through us. The seven Spirits of God bestow on us a
perpetual flow of His manifest presence, wisdom and
understanding, counsel and might, knowledge and fear of the
Lord.
The first of the sevenfold operation of the Holy Spirit is the
Spirit of the Lord upon (see Isa. 11:2). This speaks of the Lord
resting upon us and covering us with His Holy presence. It is
our being clothed with Christ (see Gal. 3:27). In Mark 9:2-7, we
read about the Lord's transfiguration accompanied by God's
holy presence. We are to be clothed with His presence. In Acts
10:38, we see how God anointed Jesus with the Holy Spirit and
with power, but with the Holy Spirit upon Him.
The second Spirit, of wisdom, is creative ability to do the
impossible; it puts the “wow” factor into our works. It's ability
beyond our own ability. It's God's thoughts and ideas in action.
The Spirit of understanding partners with wisdom to help us
understand how to mobilize and implement heavenly blueprints
and patterns. It's putting two-and-two together and making it
happen. The Spirit of understanding also helps us articulate
the revelation of His Word that we've been shown. Without
understanding, we won't know what to do with those heavenly
blueprints.
Paul tells us in Ephesians 1:17-19 what wisdom and
understanding partnered do: “That the God of our Lord Jesus
Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you the spirit of
wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him, the eyes of
your understanding being enlightened; that you may know
what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the
glory of His inheritance in the saints, and what is the
exceeding greatness of His power toward us who believe,
according to the working of His mighty power.”
The Spirit of Counsel is engaging the One who is the Alpha
and the Omega. It's listening for and heeding His counsel. The
counsel of the Lord stands forever. As we build by His
heavenly plans, God releases fresh flows of His counsel, His
thoughts, and the intents of His heart.
Counsel then releases the might of God to impart vigor, power,
strength, and the anointing to see His divine plans through.
With the might of God, we won't just look for the finger of God
or His hand, we'll look for His arm—unlimited power and
strength! God's might and power are always associated with
counsel. The prophet Isaiah called Him Wonderful, Counselor,
and Mighty God. We never flow in God's might or power
without His wonderful counsel.
The Spirit of knowledge of the Lord is that place of divine
union when we come into that place of the deep thoughts of
God. It's the place of knowing Him. It's not just His counsel,
wisdom or understanding—it’s knowing Him—it's the intimate
knowledge of Him. Knowledge of Him releases understanding,
wisdom, counsel, and might. As we grow in His knowledge,
peace and grace multiply, as does our humility. As we increase
in our knowledge of His vastness, His depth, His greatness,
His awesomeness, His majestic splendor, we sever limitations
and the impossible becomes possible, the ordinary
extraordinary. In the knowledge of these things, we embrace
His counsel with joy. Because we know Him we celebrate
wisdom, because we know that He can do all things.
As the Spirit of knowledge flows, it releases a deep and
reverent fear of the Lord. Nothing will foster this godly fear like
knowledge of His awesome attributes and His sovereign
majesty. Knowledge of who He really is brings a holy fear that
takes you to a completely new spiritual level.
Without the sevenfold Spirits of God operating in our lives, we
in essence, disable ourselves because we succumb to our
natural limitations. God offers us supernatural ability and
power to fulfill our destinies and His plans for us with unlimited
resources. God will partner with us, as He did with Zerubbabel
and Moses, to confound the world. God gave Zerubbabel and
Moses the full measure of the Holy Spirit and they flowed in a
constant river of wisdom and understanding, counsel and
might, knowledge and reverent fear of the Lord.
God spoke great words of encouragement to Zerubbabel
through the vision He gave Zechariah, and He speaks those
same words even now to the building of His living temple:
“The hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundation of this
temple; His hands shall also finish it. Then you will know that
the LORD of hosts has sent Me to you. For who has despised
the day of small things” (Zech. 4:9-10)?

God is Love and Light


It is important to understand that God is both Love and Light.
It is not that He gives life and gives love. He is Love and He is
Life.
And we know (understand,
recognize, are conscious of, by
observation and by experience)
and believe (adhere to and put
faith in and rely on) the love God
cherishes for us. God is love, and he
who dwells and continues in love
dwells and continues in God, and
God dwells and continues in him (1
John 4:16).
This is the message we have heard
from Him and announce to you, that
God is Light, and in Him there is no
darkness at all (1 John 1:5).
Love and light are powers. They are energies that flow as a life-
giving river of pure love, and that love becomes incredible
light-possessing power to heal, restore and transform. It
becomes a river of the love of God, and when we drink of it, we
become beings of light—sons and daughters dispersing and
flowing in the Light of Love. Until we are flowing in this river
and it flows from us—we will not have access to the Tree of
Life for the healing of nations.
…Jesus stood, and He cried in a
loud voice, If any man is thirsty, let
him come to Me and drink! He who
believes in Me (who cleaves to and
trusts in and relies on Me) as the
Scripture has said, from his
innermost being shall flow
[continuously] springs and rivers
of living water” (John 7:37-38).
We need to ask ourselves some questions! What is flowing
out of me? What kind of light or what kind of sound is flowing
out of me? Is it the sound of a bright brilliant light or a dim dark
light? The spirit realm of demons and angels see it and know
exactly what we are by the brilliance or dimness of that light.
Wherever we go, we leave behind a trail of light. We affect
people by what we emanate. If we emanate love’s light, it will
be so bright that it will transform our lives and the people we
touch. Why? Because love is an essence, a power, and life. I
stated this in my last book, Glory Rising, when a person dies,
he or she leaves behind a trail of what has emanated from his or
her life both negative and positive. Yes, we will leave behind a
deposit in this world of the things, people, and circumstances
we have touched. Nobody lives or dies unto himself (see Rom.
14:7). We have an effect on this life, on creation, on our world,
in which we live.

The Kingdom that is in Light


The Kingdom of God is a Kingdom of pure light. Angles
ascend and descend from this realm bringing miracles,
healings, impartations and anointings necessary for the
moment we are in. It's important for us to understand that the
Kingdom of God is a Kingdom that consists of supernatural
light. This light created everything that we see in the natural.
The Scriptures teach us that God is Light.
This is the message we have heard from Him
and announce to you, that God is Light, and
in Him there is no darkness at all (1 John
1:5).
And that we are “Sons of Light.”
For you are all sons of light and sons of the
day; we do not belong either to the night or
to darkness (1 Thess. 5:5).
As sons of Light we share an inheritance that is in the Light.
Colossians 1:12 says,
Giving thanks to the Father, Who has qualified and
made us fit to share the portion
which is the inheritance of the saints (God's holy
people) in the Light.
So, God is Light, we are sons of Light, and we share an
inheritance with God that is in the Kingdom of light. It’s all
about being invigorated by the light, being strengthened by
the light. What is this light? It is the light of the Glory of God.
As we look into the light of the Glory of God we are
strengthened and invigorated. Verse 12 affirms us in this:
“Giving thanks to the Father who has qualified and made us
fit to share the portion which is the inheritance of the saints
in the light.” Your inheritance and your portion, your place
where you’re strengthened and invigorated in the Holy Spirit
of God comes from the Kingdom of light. Because we, along
with God, are light.

Jesus the Life and Light of Men


Jesus is both Light and Love. Let’s look at John 1:1-4:
In the beginning before all things was the
Word, which was Christ. And, the Word was
with God and the Word was God. All things
were made and came into existence through
Him, the Word. And, without Him there was
not one thing made that has come into
being. In Him was life and the life was the
light of men. In Him was life, the Word, and
that life was the light of men.
He is light. God is light. Verse 5 goes on to day, “And, the light
shines on the darkness for the darkness has never
overpowered it….” Devils can’t stand the light of the Glory of
God. Sickness and disease in this physical realm can’t handle
the supernatural light of heaven. When light from heaven
comes into the natural realm, everything in the room changes.
Every inferior realm, every dark vibration, every dark demon of
hell is exposed and dismissed by the power of the light of the
Glory of God. In Him was life and that life was light. When we
are born again, literally, we are filled with the Kingdom of light.
When you become born again, your spirit man, which was dark
and dead, instantaneously becomes filled with the light of
heaven and the Glory of God is downloaded into your spirit
man. You become a new creature in Christ with a brand new
spirit nature. Colossians 1:13 says,
The Father has delivered and drawn us to
Himself, out of the control and the dominion
of darkness and He has transferred us into
the kingdom of the son of His love.
We have been snatched out of the kingdom of darkness and
have been transferred, translated or transported into the
Kingdom of light and have become light in the world. So this
light of the Glory of God illuminates us and gives us access to
share the portion with Him, which is our inheritance in the light.
The problem is getting past the spirit of the mind that needs to
be renewed. The Apostle Paul wrote:
But whenever a person turns [in
repentance] to the Lord, the veil is stripped
off and taken away. Now the Lord is the
Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is,
there is liberty (emancipation from bondage,
freedom). And all of us, as with unveiled
face, [because we] continued to behold [in
the Word of God] as in a mirror the glory of
the Lord, are constantly being transfigured
into His very own image in ever increasing
splendor and from one degree of glory to
another; [for this comes] from the Lord [Who
is] the Spirit (2 Cor. 3:16-18).
“Where the spirit of the Lord is there is liberty,” refers to
freedom from the shackles of the mind. And, we all with
unveiled faces, as we continue to engage the Glory where our
inheritance is, and as we continue to stare into the light of the
Glory of God, we are being lifted above into the light of the
Glory of His presence. In that place, He transforms your
memories. He transforms the DNA, the spiritual fabric, the way
that you understand who God is, and who you are, and the one
who lives in you. You start to believe. Satan does not want you
to get this revelation. All of the unseen realm of the light of the
Glory of God lives inside of you as a supernatural creature.

Sound is the Origin of Light


Sound is the origin of light. For years now, science has always
understood that an atom broken down to its most finite state is
nothing more than concentrated light form. But even more
recently they have discovered that light can be broken down
further. Light reduced to its most infant form is what science
calls vibrating super cells of sound. So then, sound is the
basis of all life. Scripture confirms this in Genesis 1:1-3:
IN THE beginning God (prepared, formed,
fashioned, and) created the heavens and the
earth. The earth was without form and an
empty waste, and darkness was upon the
face of the very great deep. The Spirit of God
was moving (hovering, brooding) over the
face of the waters. And God said, Let there
be light; and there was light.

God’s voice is the base formula along with the matter of earth
and the creative matter or power of the brooding Holy Spirit.
When God spoke, the vibration from the sound of His voice
brought forth light. So if light comes from sound, then sound
must be the origin of color. This is how we can understand,
prophetically speaking, that color has a sound. Sound has a
color, and color has a sound. Stay with me now!
The motion picture industry reveals much about the color of
sound. Drama, romance, and horror movie scores all project
sound that is congruent to what is being projected on the main
screen. The music is the emotion, or the spirit force, that carries
the impact of what is being viewed. The color of the music,
whether dark or light, is applied to project theatrics. The power
of certain sounds as they have been applied in your earlier life
can pull you back into the emotion of a place you thought you
had left years ago. Do you remember the movie Jaws? Two
notes have brought fear into the lives of countless swimmers
to this day. Recently I was water skiing and took a spill on a
Lake in northern Wisconsin. As I came to the surface and
looked around at the vast size and depth of that lake, all I could
here were those two haunting piano notes… dune dune…
dune dune…. For a moment I was petrified.
The power of sound produces emotion. Just as there are dark
sounds, there are light sounds. There are devilish dark sounds
and colors, and there are heavenly light sounds and color. We
need to be creating an environment by praise and thanksgiving
that will pull heaven to earth and flood our churches, cities and
regions with the Light of the Glory of God. When this happens
true revival will take place. We won’t have to advertise revival
—revival will be in the air!
Attracting & Repelling the Light of the
Glory Realm
When we manifest faith we are emitting a power and a brilliance
that will attract heaven. However, when we manifest unbelief,
in the form of depression or discouragement, the light of the
Glory realm fades. Praise is a glorious golden light that
manifests in the realm of the spirit. Often we see gold dust and
golden oil come in this type of environment. Thanksgiving is
this kind of power and Glory. When we are thankful it opens up
the gates of heaven for everything of which we have need.
When we moan and grumble about things in our lives it
attracts a demonic power that will cut us off from heaven and
eventually, will even affect the cells in our body and the
marrow in our bones.
A joyful heart is good medicine
(Prov. 17:22).
Sickness is a vibration that works against the body and causes
it to decompose. Faith and thanksgiving are a powerful
vibration that destroys sickness when exercised. When we
choose to be thankful, a heavenly glorious light and power will
fill us and transform us right down to the cells in our body. If
we are always talking about sickness, we’ll be surrounded by
the vibration and demonic power of that sickness. We need to
stop talking about sickness! You may feel sick but stop
energizing the sickness by talking about it. Thank God for all
the good things in your life and forget sickness and it will die.
Depression and self-pity attracts a dark presence that will cut
you off from the light of the Glory of God and destroy you.
Give thanks to God in everything and in every situation and
watch your circumstances instantly change. Watch your body
gain new strength and power.
…giving thanks to the Father, who
has qualified us to share in the
inheritance of the saints in Light
(Col. 1:12, NASB).
…God is Light, and in Him there is
no darkness at all (1 John. 1:5).
He [God] wraps himself in light as
with a garment… (Psalm 104:2, NIV,
emphasis mine).
[The Father] has delivered and
drawn us to Himself out of the
control and the dominion of
darkness and has transferred us
into the kingdom of the Son of His
love [the Kingdom of Light]… (Col.
1:13; emphasis mine).

Attitudes are a Light Energizing Power


Attitudes also have the power to either attract or repel the
presence and power of God. When we begin to praise God, we
immediately become surrounded with heavenly light and Glory.
The spirit world knows who we are—not just by our words, but
by the color of light that emanates from us. The New Age
community calls it “Aura,” but the light they see on us is the
light of the Glory of God. Demons and angels need only take
one good look at us and know immediately who we are by the
light coming from us. These attitudes are a power that pour
from us and open up gates that will take us deeper into the
emotion and the spirit of an attitude good or bad. It is clearly
then our responsibility in everything to overcome with a right
attitude and a thankful heart.
…always giving thanks for all
things in the name of our Lord
Jesus Christ… (Eph. 5:20).
The Lord said to Job, “…adorn yourself with glory and
splendor, and clothe yourself in honor and majesty” (Job
40:10, NIV). In the midst of his trials, God told Job to wrap
himself in Glory and light and to cloak himself with honor and
majesty! What we manifest in attitude and atmosphere will
reproduce around us. Happiness is a choice. We choose to
produce joy or depression. Which cloak will you wear today?

Thoughts Become a Living Light Force


It’s important for us to keep in mind that thoughts are seeds
that produce light and life. Thoughts have life in them and will
reproduce. As we talked about earlier, the Creation Law of
Reproduction simply means all things reproduce after their
own kind. Genesis 1:11-12 says the earth brought forth grass
and herbs yielding seed after their kind, and the tree yielding
fruit, and the fruit produced seed after its own kind.
Our thoughts aren’t momentary insignificant blurbs, but they
possess life and power that chart the course of our present and
future life. If our thoughts indeed possess this light power then
how are these seeds planted?
When a thought firmly connects with emotion, a supernatural
power or light force is conceived. If you hold those thoughts
until they are mixed with your emotions, desire releases the
power of life and light and they birth. This principle is similar
to, “If two of you agree on earth about anything… it shall be
done for them” (Matt. 18:19).
When your emotions agree with your thinking, it shall be done!
This is the power of union and agreement. It works for both
God-thoughts and demonic thoughts. So be careful what you
desire!
Take, for example, love. Your husband or wife comes home
from work and gives you a big kiss and tells you with warm
affection you are loved. When the connection takes place
between your thoughts and your emotions, it begins to fill
your entire being and becomes a living force. This seed of
thought, when energized by emotion, will literally create an
environment of love and joy around your entire household.
Any thoughts that connect with our emotions become a very
strong light energizing power and determine the atmosphere
around us. The church has taught for years that emotions are
not important. However, I say to you that emotions as well as
your thought life are the light inspiring creative side of you.
Your emotions are essential for everything to happen. Jesus
was moved with an emotion called compassion and released
miracles (see Matt. 20:34; Mark 1:41). Compassion releases
miracles—even the raising of the dead (Luke 7:11-17).
The power and Glory of God in the anointing are released
through the gateway of human affection. When our thinking
connects with our feelings, a seed is planted by desire and a
light power is released.
So we need to be careful what we think.
Be Careful What You Think
We need to be careful what we are thinking! Every time we
think, we place a spiritual offering at the door of that thought
that energizes and empowers it. Conception takes place when
thought and emotion come together. This forms a creative
power or bond of agreement that brings forth life or death.
Brings forth means to breed or create, and is the same as a
plant that is produced from the seed. It is the Creation Law of
Reproduction at work.
When I meditate on the Word and revelation begins to flow,
my whole being seems to be flooded with light—not only light,
but flooded with the tranquil peace and life of God. The
revelation that is coming from God’s mind flows through my
emotions and is making a place in my spirit man for seed to be
planted and grow.
Revelation isn’t just an abstract thought; it is a living Light
force connected with a feeling buried deep inside of us. When
these seeds are planted conception has taken place, and if
watered, the revelation will grow and eventually give birth in
our life. As a man thinks… so he will become!

Be Careful What You Speak


Scripture says in Proverbs 18:21 that,
Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and they who
indulge in it shall eat the
fruit of it for life or death.
When your mind and words lose the power to curse, you will
gain access to the Tree of Life. Only those who overcome the
darkness will eat of the Tree.
A gentle tongue (with its healing power) is a
tree of life, but willful contrariness in it
breaks down the spirit (Prov. 15.4).
The King James Version of this verse translates as, “A
wholesome tongue is a tree of life: but perverseness therein is
a breach in the spirit.”

One definition for the word breach is “a break in relations.” In


the above verse it means to be cut off from abiding in Him. A
wholesome tongue transmits a tree of life but perverseness will
cause a breach in the spirit—and this breach cuts you off from
God and the light of His love flowing through you.
The mouth is the clearest revelation of someone’s heart.

The good man out of the good


treasure of his heart brings forth
what is good; and the evil man out
of the evil treasure brings forth
what is evil; for his mouth speaks
from that which fills his heart (Luke
6:45).
CHAPTER 7
Re ve lation, Matte r, Faith and Fre que ncy

Just as there are two forms of light, natural and supernatural,


so there are two different forms of sounds, the sound in
heaven and the sound on the earth. The sound of earth is
cluttered with human and demonic debris that can only be
changed by the Holy Spirit. These dark earthly sounds can
carry a frequency or vibration that works against our spirit,
soul and body to break it down and imprison it. Satan is known
as the prince of the power of the air in Ephesians 2, and his
attempt is to keep us from harmony with the voice of the Spirit
of God. But we must rise above the noise of the world and
ascend into the new sounds of heaven. Isaiah 60:1-3 says:
ARISE [from the depression and
prostration in which circumstances
have kept you--rise to a new life]!
Shine (be radiant with the glory of
the Lord), for your light has come,
and the glory of the Lord has risen
upon you! For behold, darkness
shall cover the earth, and dense
darkness [all] peoples, but the Lord
shall arise upon you [O Jerusalem],
and His glory shall be seen on you.
And nations shall come to your
light, and kings to the brightness of
your rising.
Isaiah said we can rise from the depression or the noise of the
earth and come into the Glory. Darkness covers the earth and
the people, but—His Glory shall be seen on you—when we
rise and shine. Then the nations will come to the light they see
on us, even kings will come to the brightness of our rising…
but we must rise above… we must ascend and live from above.

Levels of Ascension
In our meetings we need to remember one thing, the level of
ascension that we enter into in praise will determine the level of
miracles we will see manifest in the room. If the ascent isn’t
high enough, it will make the difference between migraines
being healed, or body parts being recreated. There are times in
our personal lives and meetings that there’s been no
atmosphere, sense of the Presence of God, or ascension into
His Presence, but we’re looking for the Glory of God. The
secret to ascending higher in the Glory of God is praise! You
PRAISE, PRAISE, PRAISE… until you and your region are
changed.
How long should it take for you to walk into a meeting and be
in the presence of God? IMMEDIATELY. Is it the amount of
songs you sing? No its not. Some of the songs we sing grieve
the Spirit. High Praise is what brings you before the face of
God. I don't want to just come occasionally before the face of
God, but I want to learn to live in the very Presence of God.
The Release of Anointed Frequencies
New sounds are constantly being released from heaven on the
Earth, and along with them an increase of angelic activity.
There are dark sounds being released as well. That’s why
you’ve got to watch what your children are listening too,
because with each dark sound that is released on the Earth
there is a demonic power released through it. Listen to me, if
dark frequencies can release demon power, then what does the
new song release in the church? The new song releases
anointed frequencies and angelic activity. The reason angels
have not come forth in might and in power is because they’re
not hearing the anointed sound in the church. When that
sound is there, you’re going to see angelic activity like you’ve
never seen before. Angels respond according to what they
hear coming out of our mouths. What sound is on your voice?
When you’re anointed, you have something on your voice that
nobody else has unless they are anointed. This is documented.
The human voice is made up of atoms; there are atoms in your
voice. If atoms are on your voice, then there’s matter on your
voice. If that is in the natural, what is it like when you get
anointed? How much more are the atoms? How much more
matter do you have on your voice now that you are anointed?
Brother, now that you are anointed, there’s enough matter on
your voice to speak to the elements of nature.

Voice Print & Higher Frequency


Let take this a little bit further. Do you know that when God
made man, He tuned man’s body to His voice frequency. Every
living thing is spinning with the vibration that comes from the
voice of the Lord. So your body is spinning and has its form
and is even now being sustained by the Voice of His Power.
Hebrews 1:13 says that, “He upholds and maintains all things
by the Mighty Word of His Power.”
Sounds either release the demonic or the heavenly. Do you
understand why Jesus could walk through a wall? He carried a
higher frequency than the wall. Do you know why you can cast
out devils? You have a higher frequency. If you don’t have a
higher frequency, you can’t cast it out. Today science calls
this voice print. Could voice print be the reason why demon
powers look at the church and argue with it? Could it be
because they know your voiceprint isn’t real? Jesus I know
Your voice print, but who are they? We want to cast the devil
out of someone or something but cannot because the same
demonic voiceprint resides in us. The demon says, “Your
voiceprint corresponds with what’s in me! You can’t cast me
out!”
We must be set free from the very thing we are trying to free
others from or we will be powerless to get it done. In other
words, how can you cast out that spirit of addiction out of
another individual if you have the same thing living in you? If
you can’t submit to your pastor with that rebellious spirit, how
can you expect your children to submit to you?
Do you remember Ella Fitzgerald, who could sing so high she
could crack glass? If her natural ability could break matter,
what do you really think that praise does in the spirit? Your
praise is supposed to break off principalities, it’s supposed to
break of powers, it’s supposed to break up rulers of darkness!
Your praise, your voiceprint, your praise level is a natural pulse
that can break “glass.” And they were not anointed with the
miracle working power of God. Do you have any idea what you
receive when you received the Holy Ghost? Oh I’m telling you,
this thing is dangerous. Demon power knows your voice print.
Angels know your voice print. And if you don’t have the word
of the Lord in your mouth, they won’t respond to your words.
Sound also transmits visions, images, and color. When we talk,
we often are seeing what people are saying. “I see what you
are saying.” We don’t even realize what we are saying. This
means, if the people can’t see what you are saying, they
haven’t heard it. “Faith comes by seeing, and seeing by the
word of God.” Faith comes by sound. It’s important to see what
is being spoken. [22]

Understanding God’s Sound


You can learn what your gift for healing is when you start
filling your life with worship frequencies. People ask me, “Jeff,
why do miracles happen so easily in your meetings?” My
response is, “Because of the revelation and release of God
Sound that brings the atmosphere for miracles to manifest.”
The Apostle Paul wrote:

Yet when we are among the full-grown


(spiritually mature Christians who are ripe
in understanding), we do impart a [higher]
wisdom (the knowledge of the divine plan
previously hidden); but it is indeed not a
wisdom of this present age or of this world
nor of the leaders and rulers of this age, who
are being brought to nothing and are
doomed to pass away. But rather what we
are setting forth is a wisdom of God once
hidden [from the human understanding] and
now revealed to us by God--[that wisdom]
which God devised and decreed before the
ages for our glorification [to lift us into the
glory of His presence]. None of the rulers of
this age or world perceived and recognized
and understood this, for if they had, they
would never have crucified the Lord of glory
(1 Cor. 2:6).

Revelation Brings Manifestation


Manifestations of the Spirit are coded. A person cannot walk in
miracles, signs and wonders without revelation. Revelation
brings the manifestation. The manifestation confirms that the
revelation comes from God. People cannot argue with the
miracles. They may be able to argue with your doctrine but
they cannot fight miracles!
As Jesus was teaching the power of the Lord was present with
Him to heal.
One of those days as He was teaching, there
were Pharisees and teachers of the Law
sitting by, who had come from every village
and town of Galilee and Judea and from
Jerusalem. And the power of the Lord was
present with Him to heal them (Luke 5:17).
When revelation comes from heaven, there is power for the
manifestation. The devil hates revelation because it brings
power with it for manifestation and healing. Hosea 6 says that
God’s people are destroyed for “lack of knowledge.” Without
revelation knowledge there is no empowerment.

Worldly Intellectualism
Intellectualism has become the means by which this present
age determines reality. Worldly reasoning has become the
meter by which mankind decides what is valid and real and is
humanistic at best. This kind of thinking is dangerous and
antagonistic toward God. Worldly intellectualism is completely
void of faith. Paul said in 1 Corinthians 2:4-5 that his preaching
was done by the power of signs and wonders so that our faith
might not rest in men but in the power of God.
God wants to teach the body of Christ how to access
revelation knowledge from the heavens and manifest on earth
in substance. When Adam was created he had the mind of
God, but when he fell, he traded the mind of God for an earthly
mind based on human intellect and reason.
In the Garden of Eden, Adam didn't need faith because he had
everything he needed. Faith is required when you are in need.
We need faith when things are closed off and need to get them
open again. The very first thing God gave Adam was faith—so
he could see the place from which he fell. It was the mercy of
God for Adam to receive faith from God; otherwise, he would
have died from eternal grief. He needed to know that he would
once again have access to the realm of Glory from which he
was created and from which he fell.
Time and matter became the basis of Adam's reality. This is
why our intellect has a problem with anything that cannot be
explained by our five senses. But the problem is that not all
matter can be seen! And your intellect was never designed to
distinguish between the visible and invisible realm. Paul said
we look to the things that we cannot see. The unseen realm
designed and created the realm that we can detect with our five
senses.
It is absolutely mandatory that we must be transformed or
renewed in our thinking in order to see the Kingdom of God.
Jesus told Nicodemus, “You must be born again or born from
above in order to see the Kingdom of God” (John 3:3). We
cannot see the Kingdom without first being born from above.
We must undergo a complete spiritual metamorphosis of the
Spirit in order to see in the Spirit. To undergo a transformation
means to be formed back into the original state in which a thing
was created. To be renewed is to bring something back to the
original state or form when it was new!
Paul said in Ephesians 4:23 to be, “renewed in the spirit of
your mind.” Originally we must have known both realms.
The natural mind can never show you a miracle. Common sense
can never make a blind man see or a deaf man hear nor reveal
the reality of the Glory realm because common sense tells us
that the natural realm is the boundary that defines what is real
and what is not.

Revelation Unlocks Time, Space and Matter


We have seen countless displays of creative miracles coming
from heaven by simply calling them into the natural when
heaven is open. When the Glory of God is in the room creative
miracles are as easy as “Only Speak the Word and my servant
will be healed.” When heaven is open you can see what is
available there and pull it into time and space—and it will
manifest.
I was in a meeting in Korea a short time back with 6,000 people
present. So many creative miracles took place that we couldn't
keep track of them all. The meetings were televised so millions
were watching all around Asia and the world. More were
healed through television than those in the meetings and the
reports poured in. Out of all of the wonderful things God did, I
remember on the last night of the meeting I called out that body
parts were being recreated in the meeting. Along with the
hundreds that came up to testify of miracles, there were several
women who came up to testify that each had previously been
missing a finger. In the Glory their missing fingers completely
grew out and God even went as far as to put the right color
fingernail polish on the nail to match the others!
When the heavens are open, all that we have need of is
available and is as easy as calling it from the unseen realm into
the visible by faith. I didn't think how this was going to
happen, I just saw it, spoke it and it happened.
Revelation Knowledge
I don't think any of us really understands just exactly what
Adam experienced when he fell from the Glory of God. When
Adam fell he traded the mind of Christ for the mind of reason.
He went from experiential eating of the Tree of Life to eating
from the tree of self-recognition and common sense. Common
sense wants you to think and reason, but faith wants you to
simply believe and act. This is why our intellect has problems
with anything that cannot be explained. Not all matter is visible
to the naked eye. Common sense basis reality on what is
detected in the five natural senses, but this type of thinking or
observation is incomplete.
God is Spirit! When God starts showing us what He wants to
bring from the unseen realm of the Glory we need to start
speaking it down and manifesting the miracle in the natural.
God is looking for a people who will move in revelation that will
manifest heaven on the earth, and He is working with people in
this generation and this time to bring it about.
The society that we live in is largely educated to what we
detect in our physical surrounding, and if we go beyond it we
cannot conceive it. The only thing that can take you past your
intellect is revelation knowledge. Jesus said in Mark 4:11,
To you has been entrusted the mystery of the
kingdom of God (that is, the secret counsels
of God which are hidden from the ungodly);
but for those outside (of our circle)
everything becomes a parable.
Revelation knowledge is the only thing that can bring us to the
place of seeing the unseen realm. The natural mind and intellect
can’t do it. They are two completely different frequencies. The
natural mind is completely incompatible with the mind of the
Spirit. Common sense can't show you how to make a blind man
see or a dead man live. Only revelation knowledge can show
you these possibilities and realities. We need the mind of
Christ! Common sense says the physical realm is the boundary
by which we are to define reality and anything beyond that the
mind cannot comprehend or believe. But a generation is rising
that does not determine reality based upon what it can detect
with the five senses, but rather determines reality based upon
the Word of God and revelation knowledge.

The Spirit Realm and Resurrection Glory


Hebrews says that the things that we see with the natural eye
were created by the things that we cannot see. They are made
of unseen matter. The spirit realm holds matter together and
maintains it. This applies to both the demonic realm as well as
the supernatural Kingdom of God. Sickness is upheld by
demonic tones or vibrations. The father of lies speaks as well!
If he can get us to agree with him and with his voice he can
bring sickness upon us—but in order for that to happen we
must first agree to it. You see, we have the final say-so on the
outcome of our lives! By our words we are justified and by our
words we are condemned.
As the Glory of God increases in the earth in the days to come
there will be an explosion of the raising of the dead. When
Jesus was raised from the grave on the third day, Scripture tells
us that there was a mighty earthquake that shook the earth so
violently that it opened up the graves, and many saints were
seen walking through the streets of Jerusalem testifying to the
resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ. There was such a Glory
released at the resurrection that those who had died in the Lord
rose from their graves and were witnessed preaching in the
streets. Now that's resurrection Glory! Death is nothing more
than the spirit realm divorcing itself from physical realm. The
Spirit realm is the real realm that causes life and breath to exist
in the natural. When the spiritual breaks away from the natural
there is death. So, when the manifest presence of Almighty
God is present in our atmosphere, that which is dead will be
resurrected! When the true Spirit of God invades an
atmosphere, all that is dead will get up. The raising of the dead
will be the most common miracle done by common people in
the coming Glory Revival.

Breaking Demonic Frequencies


I was in a meeting last year in New Zealand in which the Spirit
of the Lord moved powerfully with many creative miracles
manifesting in the room. Testimony after testimony came forth
of wonderful miracles of instantaneous healings from the
Presence of the Lord. When the meeting was over a man
approached me from the back of the auditorium and said that
he had brought his wife in the service. They had sat in the back
during most of the meeting as she was not able to get up; her
pain was so extreme. He proceeded to tell me that she had been
suffering from stage four melanoma cancer and that the doctors
gave her only two to four weeks to live. He asked me if I would
pray for her and I agreed. As the woman approached the front
of the building I could smell her before she came into focus.
The stench of the spirit of cancer had engulfed her. She looked
weak, weighing less than 100 pounds, and wearing a scarf as all
of her hair had fallen out from the chemotherapy. Her husband
helped put her in the chair in the front row seat and then they
turned their attention toward me. As I began to walk toward her
I could feel the resistance from the spirit of cancer that was
consuming her body; yet, as I looked at her something
different happened. I spoke to the woman and said, “Honey,
you don't have cancer! The doctors were wrong! You're going
to be just fine.” Without touching her, I turned around and
walked away. I couldn't help but think that my actions
appeared quite abrupt or even rude.
Several months later the pastors from that church in Auckland,
New Zealand came to our 2010 Power and Glory of the
Kingdom event in Murfreesboro, Tennessee. Immediately,
Pastor Tim approached me and said, “Hey Jeff, great to see
you! Do you remember the woman that you prayed for at the
end of the last event at our church last year?” I had to think for
a moment.
“Yes, I remember the lady that came forward with her husband
who was eaten up with cancer,” I replied.
He said, “That’s the one. I just wanted to let you know that all
of her hair has grown back in and last week she went back to
work at her old job. The doctors said she is a living miracle as
all of the cancer in her body miraculously disappeared!”
Proverbs 18:6 says, “Life and death are in the power of the
tongue.”
What happened was that this woman received a bad report
from her doctor and then agreed with it, making it a powerful
demonic decree. We need to be careful what we are agreeing
with. In Mark 5, when Jarius received the report that his little
girl was dead, Scripture states that Jesus overheard the report,
but ignored it. He spoke to the heart and mind of Jarius and
said, “…keep on believing Jarius.” The power of agreement is
key. We need to be agreeing with the Word and the voice of
the Spirit, and as we do we will cancel out the voice of the
enemy and break demonic agreements meant for our
destruction. The doctors may be right in diagnosing a situation
and it may be a fact that you have a particular condition. But
there is a higher truth available to us than plain fact. It's called
“By His Stripes I am healed.” Truth in the Word trumps fact
every time.
The Coming Super Shift
The heavens are a symphony, declaring the will of God for the
earth. The universe is a cosmic time piece revealing times and
seasons that we need to be familiar with. God has a Cosmic
Calendar that reveals times and seasons to the sons of men
and there is a Super Shift coming upon this generation that will
manifest heaven on earth like no other generation before us.
This may sound strange to some, but it was God who placed
the starts in the heavens causing them to follow His course of
action and reveal His timings to us, not Satan. David writes:
THE HEAVENS declare the glory of God;
and the firmament shows and proclaims His
handiwork (Ps. 19:1).
Long before Astrologers and the New Age community twisted
our perception of the heavens, there has been a witness of the
stars and the constellations that confirm the accuracy of
biblical prophetic truths. Daniel had understanding of this, as
well as Job, regarding the Zodiac, Orion's Belt and the Bear in
Job 38. Three wise men (astrologers) came from the east
following a “Star” that pointed them to the Christ. Daniel
revealed these things centuries before and “wise men”
remembered and counted the time that this heavenly King
would be born, right down to the very day! I would love to go
into further details of these truths but then again, this is
another book! I will say this—the heavens are singing and
declaring the Glory of God Now!

The Original Pattern for Creation


According to science, sound and frequency are the exact same
thing, but matter and frequency are different components and
need each other to work. If you change the frequency in gold,
the molecular structure will change and cause it to become a
liquid. If you change the frequency of water, it will become a
gas. In order to work in the miraculous we need to understand
we have authority to change and reclaim the natural through
revelation declarations.
In Genesis, God said, “Let there be…” and the universe came
from the sound of His voice. God called light from the unseen
realm and the frequency of that light was His voice. He spoke,
and it began to resonate and it became light. Light, energy,
matter, then the universe and here we are—all from His voice.
So everything we see in the natural came from God-sound or
God-frequency.
If you develop a mole on your arm, that mole is merely a
frequency that changed the molecular structure of your tissue
from the original frequency. When we think of frequency we
automatically think of sound, but frequency goes far beyond
what we hear with our ears.
What we set our eyes upon and allow into our mind is what will
manifest in and around us. According to the “Law of Focus,”
seeing produces thought which in turn produces a Light Power
that energizes seeds of desire. When these seeds reach
maturity they will bring forth according to their design. What
you focus on will literally chart the course of your present and
future for good or bad. If you hold those thoughts until they
are mixed with your emotions, desire releases the power of life
and light and they birth. This principle is similar to, “If two of
you agree on earth about anything… it shall be done for
them…” (Matt. 18:19).
This is the power of union and agreement. This applies to
God-thoughts, fleshly desires, and demonic thoughts. So be
careful little eyes what you see! Jesus said to be careful how
you look upon a woman because your future is connected to
what you see.
According to scientific study and mentioned in David Van
Koovering's audio message, “The Science of God Sound,”
when you see something, your brain responds with 700 times
more fire power than when you heard a sound. This means that
the eye gate is 700 times more powerful than the ear gate. So if
we limit God to hearing Him by sound alone we are not hearing
very much and are missing most of what He is saying. [23]
Sin has a sound frequency as well and can bring you under the
power of its voice. It will manifest around you as a dark light,
which will pull an individual deeper into its power if not
repented of by renouncing and changing the frequency. Now
the Glory of God is the original pattern that everything consists
of. The universe and the Cosmos have their original set design
from the Voice of the Lord but were drastically changed by the
fall of Lucifer first, then the fall of man. God’s Cosmic Realm,
the Glory Realm, is still the original pattern for creation and will
ultimately reframe and restore all that has been altered… but
that’s another book!

God Knew You Before Time


There was never a time that you were not in the mind of God.
From the beginning, before your birth, He knew you. Before
you had this dirt body, and the atomic structure that forms
your shape—God knew you and was singing your song
frequency. We are eternal, and birthed by an eternal God given
a destiny and a holy calling to be fulfilled from before the
foundation of the world.
[For it is He] Who delivered and saved us
and called us with a calling in itself holy
and leading to holiness not because of
anything of merit that we have done, but to
further His own purpose and grace
(unmerited favor) which was given us in
Christ Jesus before the world began
[eternal ages ago] (2 Tim. 1:9).
Before the worlds were framed and placed into their cosmic
order we existed and were given a holy calling and destiny to
be fulfilled for this planet. Not only that, but we were
completely known by Him. We are not some invaluable thing
abortion can snuff the life frequency out of. God knew our
framework before our mother’s womb. He has a destiny, a
purpose, and a plan for us, though many miss it.
If we have faith we can see what God sees, using spiritual
perception to know what He knows. It is in this place that you
can see yourself in a different light and that revelation will
change your world.
For as he thinks in his heart, so is he (Prov. 23:7).
As you see what God observes, your framework will change—
calling the nonexistent things as though they already are. It’s
all about frequency.

The Harmonious Frequency of the Glory


Realm
How full of the Spirit are you? Do you have capacity enough to
see your future? This isn’t New Age—it’s Kingdom Age. By
the anointing you know all things:
But you have been anointed by [you hold a
sacred appointment from, you have been
given an unction from] the Holy One, and
you all know [the Truth] or you know all
things (1 John 2:20).
When the fall took place the molecular structure of creation
changed in an instant of time and man lost his ability to know
his destiny as a heavenly citizen. But you’ve got a memory,
you can remember yesterday, you have an anointing from the
Holy One and by faith you can be lifted up to see the place
from which you fell—from the realm of Glory.
For all have sinned and have fallen short of
the Glory of God (Rom. 3:23).
Romans clearly states, that when Adam fell in the garden, he
fell from a place. That place was called the Glory of God. We
can be restored to the Glory of God by faith in Jesus Christ.
Jesus said that when the Holy Spirit comes, you will know all
things; you will know all truth. He’ll only speak the things He
has heard from the Father, and He will show you things to
come—for they are printed on your spirit man, and you will see
what God sees, and know your destiny.
The Glory Realm is here! We’re not tuned in to it because we
are too much in our own mind and not the mind of Christ. We
need to let God speak His voice, His science, His frequency,
His sound into us and we will be complete. He made you a
certain way. Find out what God has spoken over your life to
become and resonate there. Don't try to be something you are
not. Find out what it is that He designed you to be and you'll
flourish.
CHAPTER 8
The Roar of the Lord

Not long ago, I traveled to Australia for a series of meetings


beginning in Melbourne and ending in Adelaide. The first
night of the last leg of our stay in Adelaide, the Lord told me,
“Jeff, tonight I want you to get the people to release the Roar
of the Lord over the nation of Australia, for I am about to shift
the government of My Kingdom here, which will result in an
increase in the miraculous.” So, toward the end of the worship I
took the microphone and said, “Tonight, the Lion of the Tribe
of Judah is going to Roar over the nation of Australia. The
Lord said that He was going to shift His Government tonight in
the realm of the Spirit and that it will bring an increase of
authority, which will literally result in a release of new miracles.
So tonight we are going to release the Roar of the Lord!”
I told them that when a lion wants to assert his dominance in a
region he does not lift his head and roar into the air, but rather
he lowers his head and releases a mighty roar into the ground.
When he does that, the vibration of that roar travels for miles
around and everything in the jungle is on high alert, for the
vibrations or that roar lets everyone know that he is king of the
jungle.
I told the people to stand in the midst of worship and as they
did, I began to prophecy: “Tonight the Lord is going to Roar
through His people! There is a Lion living in your belly. He is
the Lion of the Tribe of Judah and He has won the right to
assert His dominion through you and over this nation! Tonight
as we Roar in the Spirit there is going to be a shift in the
Government of God in Australia that will be felt by the shaking
of the ground in Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth. For the
ground will shake as a sign in the natural that I am shifting My
government and confirming it with signs that are outside the
reach of man to confirm. And you will know that it is I that am
at work in this nation says the Spirit of the Lord!”
Then, on the count of three, we released the Roar of the Lord.
There was such a release of power in the auditorium that
people shook all over and laid on the ground. Before the
service was over that night, people were receiving text
messages that an earthquake had hit in Melbourne.
Earthquakes are unlikely in the nation of Australia. Within a
few short days all three cites, Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth
shook under the power of earthquakes that were reported by
the news stations and papers as highly unusual. God was
confirming His Word with tangible signs in the natural from the
release of the Roar of the Lord.

Truckee, California
Several years prior to this event I told a friend, Eric Moen, from
Truckee, California that the Lord was going to release His roar
and shake the mountain region he was in as a sign that revival
was coming to his region. The prophetic was something that
was new to him so he basically just agreed with me as I was
prophesying to him over the phone. Immediately, the
mountains began to shake and within the days and weeks that
followed close to a thousand small quakes occurred in the
region. I called Eric back on the phone and asked him if the
mountain was shaking enough for him yet. Needless to say he
was amazed at the immediate release of power on the word.

Releasing the Roar of the Lord


God is releasing a Roar in His people in this season. The Lion
of the Tribe of Judah is literally roaring through a family of
sons on the earth to establish His dominion. The earth will
shake as the vibration of His Roar is released causing regions
to break out into revival. There is an authority given to the
church that will shake the nations of the earth and all will know
it is the Lord.
The Lord roars out of Zion and utters His voice from
Jerusalem (Amos 1:2).
I believe that Zion is inside of us—a holy hill. Jesus said, The
Kingdom of God is both in you, and it’s around you (Luke
17:21).
Joel 3:16 states that the Lord will roar out of Zion, “The Lord
will thunder and roar from Zion and utter His voice from
Jerusalem, and the heavens and earth shall shake.” I believe
that in the earth today, the Lord is beginning to roar into the
nations of the earth through a corporately anointed Body of
Christ.
What we’ve actually been talking about is the release of the
prophetic decree. Atmospheres shift and miracles come out of
the decree—the spoken word—because this is the voice of
authority and the voice of the Holy Spirit of God. When
declarations come out of the sons and daughters of God they
are released as a mighty roar in the earth that can be felt by
angels, demons and creation itself. Creation is waiting for the
coming forth of a family of God on the earth that will speak with
such authority the elements respond to them. I've rebuked
tornados and have had them dissolve, spoken to the wind and
commanded it to do certain things that were witnessed by
thousands in events around the nations and even documented
on film. As Spirit filled sons of God, we have the right to
release the roar of the Lord as family on this planet. You can
call it what you want, but in reality it’s Christ in you speaking,
roaring and establishing His dominion through you.

Jesus Christ is the Lion of the Tribe of Judah


Seattle, Washington
Another time as I was ministering at Transformation Center in
Seattle, Washington, I began to make faith decrees in a
powerful atmosphere of praise. As the faith decrees came forth
I saw the head of a very large Lion come into the room. As I
looked, the Lion had a crown on the top of His head and He
was roaring over the people. I noticed that His eyes were like
bright green emeralds with light beaming out of them. As the
people were worshiping Him, He was roaring over them. It
reminded me of Aslan in C. S. Lewis’ series, The Chronicles of
Narnia. When Aslan roared over the people of stone, they
transformed back into flesh and bone. There was something
similar happening here. As I was watching this happen, I began
to prophesy over the people that the Lion of the Tribe of Judah
was roaring over them tonight and that this was a season of
resurrection Glory. Resurrection power was beginning to be
released in Seattle and God was resurrecting their dead
situations back to life.

Emeralds Appear in Mouth

That
night I ministered with the worship team behind me, as I often
do, and the Glory of God began to manifest in powerful
dimensions. Along with all of the wonderful miracles of
healing, there was a woman present who is part of the
leadership of that local body. She fell to the ground shaking
under the anointing and out from her mouth came three
beautiful emeralds. This brought the fear of the Lord into the
meeting… as signs and wonders often do. The Lord was
confirming the vision that I had seen in the realm of the Spirit
by signs in the natural. The Three was for third day
resurrection power, and the Emeralds were to confirm that it
was the Lion of the Tribe of Judah. I came to find out afterward
that Seattle is known as the “Emerald City” and that the stone
for the tribe of Judah in the ephod that the High Priest wore on
his chest was the emerald. We were all in awe as the Lord
confirmed His word with incredible signs in the natural.

Isaiah 51 Government of God


The Isaiah 9:6-7 government of God is being established in the
earth like never before: For to us a Child is born, to us a Son is
given; and the government shall be upon His shoulder, and
His name shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God,
Everlasting Father [of Eternity], Prince of Peace. Of the
increase of His government and of peace there shall be no
end, upon the throne of David and over his kingdom, to
establish it and to uphold it with justice and with
righteousness from the [latter] time forth, even forevermore.
The zeal of the Lord of hosts will perform this (Isa. 9:6-7).
The government of the Kingdom of God has been growing now
in the earth for over 2,000 years from its infancy in seed-form to
a now-mature plant that is ready for harvest—and Jesus Christ
will reap the reward of His sufferings.
The earth produces [acting] by itself—first
the blade, then the ear, then the full grain in
the ear. But when the grain is ripe and
permits, immediately he sends forth [the
reapers] and puts in the sickle, because the
harvest stands ready (Mark 4:28-29).
The Gospel of the Kingdom is at a place of maturation in the
Body of Christ and I believe we are at a place where the Lord
will permit the reapers (angels and works) to bring in the
harvest. And this will be done with incredible supernatural
efficiency and release of consistent power from heaven.
Once, I asked Prophet Bob Jones, “Why aren’t miracles
consistently happening in the Body of Christ?” He said, “Jeff,
it’s because there isn't a consistent government on the earth
being displayed through a corporate body. There is a
government, but there is a more superior government coming
that will be released in power through unity. There’s a
government that comes through brotherhood.”
Oh how good and pleasant it is when
brothers dwell together in unity (Ps. 133:1).
When we see this unity come into place, I believe we will see a
much more consistent display of power, and miracles. Like it
was with Jesus we are going to see the days of “…and He
healed them all” (Matt. 12:15, NASB). What would that look
like if you or I had that kind of miracle healing anointing where
everyone you laid hands on was completely healed? I’m telling
you, the world would beat a pathway to your door!
Nations shall come to your light, and kings
to the brightness of your rising (Isa. 60:2).
The nations will come to the brightness of our rising. You are
cut from the same stone as your Daddy.
This is also affirmed in Isaiah 51:1:
HEARKEN TO Me, you who follow after
rightness and justice, you who seek and
inquire of [and require] the Lord [claiming
Him by necessity and by right]: look to the
rock from which you were hewn and to the
hole in the quarry from which you were
dug…

Look to the Rock from which you were taken from. We have
the same genetics.
Look to Abraham your father and to Sarah
who bore you; for I called him when he was
but one, and I blessed him and made him
many (Isa. 51:2).
You are your Father’s children, and you are blessed by God. It
doesn’t matter what you do. You are blessed by God. You can
short circuit it, and you can default it; you can dis-
acknowledge it and have none of the benefits apply to you.
But if you look to the Rock, and you put to remembrance the
Lord, all these blessings will follow you.
We are in a place of restoration. I believe God wants to make
this place like it was originally intended to look. I believe we are
in the place where it is going to look exactly like it was when it
was created, when God put Adam in the middle of the Garden,
as earth’s first ambassador and governor. The earth will be
filled with the knowledge of the Glory of the Lord. The Bible
says that God is going to establish His government in the
Millennial Reign here on the earth, and God is going to restore
all things through the man-God, Jesus Christ, who came to
bring the government of God back to the earth through the veil
of His flesh, and the shedding of His blood. He opened up the
new and living way, so the Kingdom of God could come in a
new governmental way. He’s in the process of making this
place look like His place.
Therefore, brethren, since we have full
freedom and confidence to enter into the
[Holy of] Holies [by the power and virtue]
in the blood of Jesus, By this fresh (new) and
living way which He initiated and dedicated
and opened for us through the separating
curtain (veil of the Holy of Holies), that is,
through His flesh (Heb. 10:19-20).
The Lord will make earth look like heaven:
For the Lord will comfort Zion; He will
comfort all her waste places. And He will
make her wilderness like Eden, and her
desert like the garden of the Lord. Joy and
gladness will be found in her, thanksgiving
and the voice of song or instrument of
praise. Lift up your eyes to the heavens, and
look upon the earth beneath (Isa. 51:3, 6).

It’s a position of authority. Ephesians 2:6 says, And He raised


us up together with Him and made us sit down together
[giving us joint seating with Him] in the heavenly sphere [by
virtue of our being] in Christ Jesus (the Messiah, the
Anointed One).
Paul is talking about the spiritual temple of the Lord. Zechariah
6:12-13 elaborates on this: And say to him, “Thus says the Lord
of hosts: [You, Joshua] behold (look at, keep in sight, watch)
the Man [the Messiah] whose name is the Branch, for He shall
grow up in His place and He shall build the [true] temple of
the Lord. Yes, [you are building a temple of the Lord, but] it is
He Who shall build the [true] temple of the Lord, and He shall
bear the honor and glory [as of the only begotten of the
Father] and shall sit and rule upon His throne. And He shall
be a Priest upon His throne, and the counsel of peace shall be
between the two [offices—Priest and King].”
You are building this temple, but there is one coming called the
Branch, and He will build the true temple of the Lord. His office
is going to be between King and Priest.

Seated in Heavenly Places


Paul also wrote to the church at Ephesus bringing them into
this revelation: And He raised us up together with Him and
made us sit down together [giving us joint seating with Him]
in the heavenly sphere [by virtue of our being] in Christ Jesus
(the Messiah, the Anointed One) (Eph. 2:6).
It’s all about rising-up-in. He has raised you up and He has
caused you to sit down in the heavenly realm, giving you joint
seating. Look up to the Lord, and then look down on the earth;
this is your position. You can’t rule anything down here if
you're not living in the revelation of being seated up above
with Christ Jesus. The elements don’t have to listen to you,
devils don’t have to listen to you, sickness and disease don’t
have to listen to you, but they will listen to the authoritative
word of sons and daughters who know their position, place,
and from where they rule. You cannot shift anything down here
unless you understand where you are seated. It’s called the
seat of government. Jesus lived and moved from heaven’s
government, demonstrating Kingdom power, and He said that
those of us who lived from and were abiding in Him would be
able to do the exact same works of power He did and even
greater works!
I assure you, most solemnly I tell you, if
anyone steadfastly believes in Me, he will
himself be able to do the things that I do;
and he will do even greater things than
these, because I go to the Father (John
14:12).
Paul said that Jesus is the “…firstborn among many brothers
(Rom. 8:29, NIV).
In John 3, Jesus tells Nicodemus that he must be born again,
which confuses him. Jesus then went on to say, “That which is
born of flesh is flesh, that which is born of Spirit is Spirit, you
must be born again.” Nicodemus is thinking womb, but Jesus
is thinking Wind. You must be born from the spirit, not the
earth. That which is of the earth is born from the earth, but that
which is spiritual is born from above.
But to as many as did receive and welcome
Him, He gave the authority (power,
privilege, right) to become the children of
God, that is, to those who believe in (adhere
to, trust in, and rely on) His name (John
1:12).
That means trust in, and completely rely on Him—they owe
their birth to God, they are born from above. Nicodemus is
thinking that he has to be born again on the earth. Meanwhile,
Jesus is telling him that it is not the womb, but it is in the Wind.
Jesus is trying to explain natural things to Nicodemus, who
can’t understand earthly things, let alone spiritual. Jesus told
Nicodemus, If I have told you of things that happen right here
on the earth and yet none of you believes Me, how can you
believe (trust Me, adhere to Me, rely on Me) if I tell you of
heavenly things? And yet no one has ever gone up to heaven,
but there is One Who has come down from heaven—the Son of
Man [Himself], Who is (dwells, has His home) in heaven (John
3:12-13).
Jesus was ministering on the earth as an authoritative Son, but
at the same time standing in the very presence of God, ruling
from His position as a Spirit filled Son—the first born among
many brothers, displaying by example what you and I have full
privilege, right, and ability to function in as Spirit-filled sons
and daughters of God.
The Wakee, Wakee Angel
We're in a season of Awakening in the nations of the earth as
the Lion of Tribe of Judah is roaring. Something fresh is being
poured out from the presence of the Lord. At the beginning of
the year the Lord told me that we were in a season of the two
elevens, or the 11:11. I asked the Lord what this meant, and He
referred me to John 11:11: He said these things, and then
added, Our friend Lazarus is at rest and sleeping; but I am
going there that I may awaken him out of his sleep.
The Lord said that in this season He was beginning to wake up
Lazarus, which is the sleeping church. The Lord said that the
church was dead but He was coming to “Wake her up.” Four
months prior to the time the Holy Spirit was poured out in the
great Welsh revival in 1904-1905, Evan Roberts was pressing
into the Presence of the Lord, having nightly visitations. These
encounters were accompanied by angelic visitations. The name
of the angel that visited Evan was called “Wakee, Wakee.” An
angel called “Wake Up” was involved in one of the most
significant revivals to ever touch that nation and the nations of
the earth at that time. The Azusa Street Revival of Los Angeles
in 1906 was directly on the heels of the Welsh Revival.
Awake, awake, put on strength and might, O
arm of the Lord; awake, as in the ancient
days, as in the generations of long ago (Isa.
51:9).
It’s time for the Church of Jesus Christ to Wake up! …Wake
up!
The Lord God says, “The redeemed of the
lord shall return and come with singing to
Zion. Everlasting joy shall be upon their
heads, and they shall obtain joy and
gladness. And sorrow and sighing will flee
away (Isa. 51:11).
So Wake up! Wake up church, for the redeemed of the Lord
shall return and is going to make the wilderness look like Eden.

Supernatural Eden Will Bloom Again


For the Lord will comfort Zion; He will
comfort all her waste places. And He will
make her wilderness like Eden, and her
desert like the garden of the Lord. Joy and
gladness will be found in her, thanksgiving
and the voice of song or instrument of praise
(Isa. 51:3).
The world needs to know that we are building into something
here and now on the earth that will play out significantly in the
Millennial Reign in which supernatural Eden will bloom again.
God has a plan for us now that will transfer over into the
coming Kingdom age and that we are literally building into it
now. The decisions we make now carry weight and power for
that time. We need to understand that we are called to build a
new world. We are not just called to be saved here and now
but we are building for a better millennial world.
Most people are just waiting for the time we can get to heaven
and get this whole “world thing” over with. How tragic... how
boring! We need to have something to aim at and head for.
What about the earth? Adam’s first assignment as the ruler or
as king in the earth was to bring heaven into this place. So we
had a mishap! It's only been a 6,000 year side step in the scope
of all of eternity. What about the Kingdom mandate to
transform the earth? Whatever happened to that? God had
never changed His mind or altered the program! Jesus Christ
came and brought back the government of that Kingdom and it
has been growing in the earth as a mustard seed, first the seed,
then the blade and the stalk, until it grows like Jesus said and
becomes the largest of all of the plants in the earth so that the
birds come and lodge in its branches. The Kingdom of God has
been growing and increasing like that for some 2,000 years
now, but it will soon come into its full measure in this timeframe
called the Millennial Reign of Christ on the earth. The Apostle
John saw a new heaven and a new earth: THEN I saw a new
sky (heaven) and a new earth, for the former sky and the
former earth had passed away (vanished), and there no
longer existed any sea. And I saw the holy city, the new
Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God, all arrayed
like a bride beautified and adorned for her husband (Rev.
21:1-2).
The Second Adam and His Bride
John saw a new heaven and a new earth being created. In the
Millennial Reign we will rule with Christ 1,000 years judging the
nations and will play a role in the recreation or transformation
of this planet. The original mandate from God to Adam was:
God blessed them and said to them, Be fruitful, multiply, and
fill the earth, and subdue it [using all its vast resources in the
service of God and man]; and have dominion (Gen. 1:28).
Adam was commissioned by God to fill the earth and “Subdue
it” which literally means to bring all of earth’s resources under
his power for the purpose of establishing the Kingdom of
heaven on the planet. Adam used supernatural, “Subduing
Knowledge and Authority” to fill the earth with the knowledge
of the Glory of the Lord. The fall interrupted this plan! What
the first Adam failed to do, the second Adam will finish. Follow
me now… this is uncharted territory.
Jesus Christ came to planet earth to undo what the devil had
done in 1 John 3:8. He came to loosen, undo and dissolve what
the devil did in the garden and return to us the long lost Keys
of the Kingdom of God (see Matt. 16:19). He shed His blood
and rose again to redeem mankind and will come again one day
to gather His church to an event in heaven called the marriage
supper of the Lamb where we will be united with Him in
marriage. After this is complete, Jesus Christ, the second
Adam, will return again to this earth with His Bride and will set
up His Millennial Reign in Jerusalem and rule the nations of the
earth for a thousand years. Satan will also be bound for a
thousand years. What do you think will be happening on
planet earth? What I propose to you is this! Adam (Jesus
Christ) and Eve (His bride, the church) will in effect be in full
process of bringing healing and restoration to this fallen world
and fulfill the original mandate that God gave Adam and Eve, to
bring heaven to earth and fill it with the knowledge of the Glory
of God. Revelation 22 is the very last book of the Bible and as a
final note to all it reads: THEN HE showed me the river whose
waters give life, sparkling like crystal, flowing out from the
throne of God and of the Lamb. Through the middle of the
broadway of the city; also, on either side of the river was the
tree of life with its twelve varieties of fruit, yielding each
month its fresh crop; and the leaves of the tree were for the
healing and the restoration of the nations (Rev. 22:1-2).
The nations are yet to be healed and restored! But this River
that flowed in Genesis 2:8 in the beginning of time that brought
life to the earth will flow once again out of the throne and of
the Lamb that will bring healing and restoration to the nations
of the earth.
John also heard and saw something else:
Then I heard a mighty voice from the throne
and I perceived its distinct words, saying,
See! The abode of God is with men, and He
will live (encamp, tent) among them; and
they shall be His people, and God shall
personally be with them and be their God
(Rev. 21:3).
There is coming a time after the marriage supper of the Lamb
that the redeemed of the Lord shall return and make this planet
look like Eden again. It will take 1,000 years to do so in our
glorified bodies with the Messiah ruling from Jerusalem. God
fully intended that Adam and Eve fill the earth with the
knowledge of the Glory of God, establishing the Kingdom of
God, pushing back darkness and extending the physical
domain of heaven on earth through Adam and his Bride. I
believe Jesus has plans for this planet and will return as the
“Original or Second” Adam and finish the job!
Building a Brand New World
The generation we live in is looking for something much
greater than what the church has been offering it. They don't
want to grow up to be like their mothers and fathers. They are a
passionate generation looking for the real thing. It's not
enough to tell them to give their lives to Jesus and hang on
until we die and go to heaven. They need to know that they are
being prepared for something much more glorious. They need
to know that they will build a brand new world with Him and
will live to rule nations on the earth. Not only that but the
universe as well. The transformation of the earth is the
beginning place. What about when the earth is completely
transformed and the Kingdom of God has been expanded as far
as it can be in the earth. What then? I'm telling you this is just
the beginning! There are galaxies yet to be brought under the
dominion of the Kingdom of God by us. This may be stretching
some of you a bit but that’s okay. We will have all of eternity
to understand and do these things. But right now it's important
that this generation understands that they are being fashioned
for something much greater than to be just mere Christians that
hold on until the return of Jesus. This is not enough for them.
God has this all in mind. We will restore this whole planet!
There is a future!

The Redeemed of the Lord Shall Return


The commission for us here and now is to establish Kingdom
authority on earth and to destroy the works of the devil like
Jesus did.
The reason the Son of God was made
manifest (visible) was to undo (destroy,
loosen, and dissolve) the works the devil
(has done) (1 John 3:8).
The redeemed of the Lord shall return, making the wilderness
pools of refreshing that the nations can come and be healed. I
believe there will be worldwide revival before the Lord returns.
The world is looking for the real Jesus Christ. They just haven't
found Him represented yet in the church, but they will! In the
Great Revival of all revivals they will say, “Oh, there’s the
Lord! We’ve been looking for Him.” And, according to Isaiah
60:1, the nations will come to the brightness of our rising. The
Lord will be seen in and through His people as they minister
Kingdom power and authority like no other generation ever!
ARISE [from the depression and prostration
in which circumstances have kept you--rise
to a new life]! Shine (be radiant with the
glory of the Lord), for your light has come,
and the glory of the Lord has risen upon
you! For behold, darkness shall cover the
earth, and dense darkness [all] peoples, but
the Lord shall arise upon you [O
Jerusalem], and His glory shall be seen on
you. And nations shall come to your light,
and kings to the brightness of your rising
(Isa. 60:1-3).
I hear the Lord saying to this generation, “You see? I’ve raised
you up, I’ve raised you to this place of joint seating, and I’ve
put my words in your mouth, so speak. I’ve raised you up to
release the sound of your voice into this place, so ask Me for
the nations. I’ve raised you up into this place of ruling far
above principalities and powers, far above dominion and
authority so you could speak. So, ask me for the nations” (see
Eph. 2:6; Ps. 2:8).
When you are in that position and you have that place with the
Lord, you have that authority, anointing, and revelation
vibrating in your spirit man. In that place, the Lord says that
you can ask Him anything in that day, and He will do it.
Does that mean you have to be perfect and sinless? Listen, we
all stumble and fall—ask my wife, she’ll be the first one to tell
you—you don’t have to be faultless and perfect, and cleaned
up, you just have to simply understand your position and
place and be humble and willing. That doesn’t mean you quit
practicing—I’m not saying that—but when you are in that
place of understanding who you are, those chains will fall off.
When you are in the presence of God, mindsets begin to shift
and change. You find yourself being delivered, washed, and
cleansed in the presence of God. It just happens as a
byproduct—it’s called sanctification.
How is God going to recreate this present world? I believe we
are a BIG part of restoring all things. We are a major part of
speaking, decreeing, and unleashing the government of God
here on the earth, both now and in the reign to come.
And I have put My words in your mouth and
have covered you with the shadow of My
hand, that I may fix the [new] heavens as a
tabernacle and lay the foundations of a
[new] earth and say to Zion, You are My
people (Isa. 51:16).
We are God’s earthly ambassadors. We are the ones that
implement His government on the planet.
Psalm 116:15 says that the heavens are the Lord's heavens, but
the earth has He given to the children of men.
The heavens belong to God. Heaven is God’s throne; it was
made for God, it was made for the spirit realm, it was made for
the supernatural. Heaven belongs to God, but the dominion of
earth He has given to man.
We Shall Reign as Kings over the Earth
I’ve got news for you. Heaven is not the final destination for
man throughout eternity. We will live on the new earth as well.
As citizens of heaven will have a home in heaven, but will also
play a part of living on planet earth and reframing and restoring
it to its original design. God is going to build a brand new
world down here. This may mess with the theology of some,
but you need to look at the Scriptures. The Bible says that God
will make a new heaven and a new earth, and that the New
Jerusalem will descend out of heaven. Who is going to live on
that new earth? We are! This is the ultimate expression of, “On
Earth as it is in Heaven.”
And [now] they sing a new song, saying, You are worthy to
take the scroll and to break the seals that are on it, for You
were slain (sacrificed), and with Your blood You purchased
men unto God from every tribe and language and people and
nation. And You have made them a kingdom (royal race) and
priests to our God, and they shall reign [as kings] over the
earth (Rev. 5:9-10)!
God is going to recreate and reframe this world and we are
going to live on it. Like Adam, we will have dual citizenship and
live both on the earth and have access to heaven. God is going
to make the wilderness like Eden again as Jesus Christ “the
Second Adam” and we His Bride “the New Eve” will together
reframe and reconstitute planet earth. This was the original
commission God gave Adam 6,000 years ago and it will
ultimately be completed in the end.
Even now the Lord is beginning to Roar out of Zion through
His church. It’s our position, our place, and our right, as we
rule with Kingdom authority on planet earth from the heavenly
realm. The bottom line is this: I am family with God, and I do
not owe my birth to my mother or father, but I owe my birth to
God, I am born from another dimension. I am born from above.
Who owe their birth neither to bloods nor to
the will of the flesh [that of physical
impulse] nor to the will of man [that of a
natural father], but to God. [They are born
of God] (John 1:13)!
CHAPTER 9

The Dread Champions & End Time Army of


God

Bob Jones 1979 Vision of the Army of God

As all of us are already aware, we are in a season of great ups


and downs in the nations of the earth. There are great
uncertainties of our time which cause great tensions due to the
lack of clarity for the future. At the same time we are in one of
the most spiritually pivotal and progressive seasons we've
been in for a long time. All can feel the spiritual tectonic plates
ready to give way to a season of the new on many levels
including revival. Wherever there are great tensions there is
great power. All this being said there are prophetic meters that
have been given to us to measure where we are at in these
times through credible voices—and without a doubt, one of
the most constant of these credible voices I know unarguably
is Bob Jones. For many decades now, Bob Jones has
accurately brought the Word of the Lord to churches, cities,
regions and leaders globally with detailed accuracy. Before us
there is a 30 year word from Bob that is getting ready to come
to pass that I feel is most urgent—we need to hear it and
understand it as it will encourage many. In short, here it is:
Back in January of 1979, the Lord took Bob into a vision to a
place by the sea and called it the “Sands of Time.” Bob said he
saw great leaders, apostles and prophets that were
representatives in their generations sticking their hands down
into the sands to bring up what looked like old shoe boxes. As
each one did, Bob could hear them say, “Is this the time? …Are
the promises for now?” With each of the leaders there was
nothing in the box—as the promises weren't for their
generation.

Then the Lord told Bob to reach down into the sands of time to
pull up a box, but Bob said, “Lord, they are all empty,” but the
Lord told Bob to open up the shoe box anyway. As Bob
opened his box he was surprised to see draft notices in it. They
said, “Greetings, you have been drafted into the Army of God.”

Then the Lord told Bob, “I will begin to send these letters out
to my leaders when it costs twenty cents to mail a letter.” At
the time of the vision, it cost only eleven cents to mail a letter
so no one ever thought that the price would go up again. But
on October 13, 1981, it cost twenty cents to mail a letter and the
Lord said, “Everyone that was conceived, that was in the
womb, or nine months prior was literally the army of God. The
first would be leaders and the second would be the greatest
army that nothing could ever stop and when they reach the
age of maturity I am going to begin to release them in power. I
will arm them out of my armory in Heaven. There is no gift
that I will deny them. They will literally pull down the
warehouse of God and they will have no fear of the enemy.
They will glorify me beyond anything that has ever been. They
will represent me in my holiness and compassion.”

There is a new people group rising in the earth that is hungry


for the Glory presence of God. They are not bound like much of
the prior generations with the rules and regulations that have
crippled, stunted or killed the postmodern church. This Army
of God is hungry for the Kingdom of power and Glory.
The Age of Maturity
October 13, 1981 to October 13, 2011 will mark thirty years from
the date. The age of 30 is representative of the age of maturity.
When Jesus was about to begin His public ministry he made
His way to the river Jordan where John was baptizing. We
know that Jesus is the Word of God for the Scriptures clearly
tell us in John 1:1, “In the beginning (before all time) was the
Word (Christ), and the Word was with God, and the Word was
God Himself.”And verses 10-11 state, “He came into the
world, and though the world was made through Him, the
world did not recognize Him. He came to that which belonged
to Him (to His own—His domain, creation, things, world) and
they who were His own did not receive Him and did not
welcome Him.”
As a young man growing up, Jesus grew in favor with both
God and man. He was subjected to His mother and Joseph as
long as He was under age. He was still a Son but was under the
guidance of another and directly responsible to His guardians.
This Greek word is called Teknon, which is a relationship
formed between people by the bonds of love, friendship and
trust, just as between parents and children. It is used in
affectionate address by patrons, helpers, teachers, as if they
are saying, “my child.” Pupils and disciples are called
“children” of their teachers, because the latter by their
instruction nourish the minds of their pupils and mold their
character.
This was the relationship with Jesus and His mother and the
wedding feast in Galilee. They ran out of wine and Mary,
Jesus’ mother, told Him to do something about it. He told her
plainly that it was not His time yet. Then, realizing that it was
about to be His time of introduction to the world, she told the
servants, “Whatever HE says, do it.” It was no longer what she
said. And this was the beginning of His public ministry. The
time was at hand for Jesus’ public ministry to begin. Suddenly,
he found Himself at the river Jordan where John was baptizing.
In those days Jesus came from Nazareth of
Galilee and was baptized by John in the
Jordan. And when He came up out of the
water, at once he [John] saw the heavens
torn open and the [Holy] Spirit like a dove
coming down [to enter] into Him. And there
came a voice out from within heaven, You
are My Beloved Son; in You I am well
pleased. (Mark 1:9-11, emphasis mine).
The Greek word used here as “Son” is the word “Huios” which
means “mature” or “full grown.” When Jesus stepped down
into the Jordan river He did as the Word of God, but yet a
Teknon Son. Through the waters of baptism, He rose up and
John saw the heavens torn open and the Holy Spirit like a dove
coming down to enter into Him and rest upon Him. And there
came a voice out of heaven saying, “You are My Beloved Son
(Huios—Mature One) and in You I am well pleased.
This end time Army of God is coming of age in this season in
preparation for what I believe will be one of the greatest
revivals to ever sweep the world. Like Jesus did, they are
reaching an “Age of Maturity” being baptized with both Word
and the Spirit. He went down into the waters of baptism in the
Jordan River as the Word of God and when He came up the
Spirit of God filled Him and He became a Mature, Huios, Son of
Go d . Word and Spirit came together. We've had many
incredible moves of God in our day that have impacted cities,
states, regions and even nations, but there is coming a mature
family of sons on the earth, a Glory generation that will be so
filled with the Word and Spirit of God it will usher in the
greatest end time revival the world will ever see.

Smith Wigglesworth prophesied in 1947 that the Great Revival


would take place when two conditions were met. I want to
quote this word in its entirety here in the following paragraphs.

TWO DISTINCT MOVES


“During the next few decades there will be two distinct moves
of the Holy Spirit across the church in Great Britain. The first
move will affect every church that is open to receive it and
will be characterized by a restoration of the baptism and gifts
of the Holy Spirit. The second move of the Holy Spirit will
result in people leaving historic churches and planting new
churches. In the duration of each of these moves, the people
who are involved will say 'This is the great revival'. But the
Lord says 'No, neither is this the great revival but both are
steps towards it.”
WORD AND SPIRIT

“When
the new church phase is on the wane, there will be evidenced
in the churches something that has not been seen before: a
coming together of those with an emphasis on the Word and
those with an emphasis on the Spirit.

When the Word and the Spirit come together, there will be the
biggest movement of the Holy Spirit that the nation, and
indeed the world, has ever seen. It will mark the beginning of
a revival that will eclipse anything that has been witnessed
within these shores, even the Wesleyan and the Welsh revivals
of former years. The outpouring of God's Spirit will flow over
from the UK to the mainland of Europe, and from there will
begin a missionary move to the ends of the earth.” [24]
Smith prophesied this in 1947. Since then we've seen the 1948
Latter Day Rain Revival; the 1950s Revival that swept the
world; the Charismatic Renewal of the 1970s; Toronto Blessing
of the 1990s, the Brownsville Revival; the Smithton
Outpouring; and Lakeland outpouring with both Rodney
Howard Brown and Todd Bentley. I believe this next move of
God will be an outpouring of the very presence of God manifest
in and through a Word-and-Spirit people. It will result in mass
harvest and evangelism with corporate miracles, healings,
signs and wonders never witnessed before. This will happen in
and through a corporately anointed body of Christ on the earth
filled with the Word and Spirit. The church is waking up. It’s
time for the dread champions to arise!

In The Chronicles of Narnia, many parallels reveal to us what


the spiritual world is like. I was especially struck by a scene in
the movie Prince Caspian. At the end of the story, Lucy has
gone to find Aslan to help in the battle that was taking place
against the enemies of Narnia. In a calm manner, Aslan states
that it is time to “Wake up your old friends, the trees.” Those
trees were fearless and powerful in battle. Trees are symbolic of
men. God is waking up the Lazarus generation who will be a
generation of Mighty Ones on the earth at this time to will
overthrow spiritual darkness on the earth. These are also
known as the Dread Champions of God.
Let’s look at the Book of Joel in the context of the “day of the
Lord” and the “pouring out of the Spirit of God on all flesh in
the last days.” This supernatural army called the Mighty Ones
are mentioned:

With a noise like chariots over


mountaintops they leap, like the noise of a
flaming fire that devours the stubble, like a
strong people set in battle array. Before
them the people writhe in pain; all faces are
drained of color. They run like mighty men,
they climb the wall like men of war; every
one marches in formation, and they do not
break ranks. They do not push one another;
every one marches in his own column.
Though they lunge between the weapons,
they are not cut down. They run to and fro
in the city, they run on the wall; they climb
into the houses, they enter at the windows
like a thief. The earth quakes before them,
the heavens tremble; the sun and moon
grow dark, and the stars diminish their
brightness. The LORD gives voice before His
army, for His camp is very great; for strong
is the One who executes His word. For the
day of the LORD is great and very terrible;
who can endure it (Joel 2:5-11, NKJV)?
A New Breed of Miracle Worker
There is a new breed of miracle worker coming to the forefront
in these last days. They are the dread champions of God.
These men and women will in many ways be like King David’s
mighty men who stand in unthinkable places and move with
supernatural dimensions that the world has never seen. The
church won't know what to do with them. Many of these will be
unknown champions in the Glory and know the very presence
of God. Jeremiah 20:11 reveals more about them: “But the
LORD is with me like a dread champion; therefore, my
persecutors will stumble and not prevail. They will be utterly
ashamed, because they have failed.”
Do you hear the battle alarm? It is ringing loud and clear! We
are entering a very serious season—a season of confrontation.
Our lukewarm “business as usual” attitude must die. The Spirit
of God is awakening and arousing the Church, prompting us to
arise and take a strong stand for Divine Truth. The war is
raging and we must prepare for battle.
We are champions because we have overcome the world by
the Blood of the Lamb and the word of our testimony; we are
dread champions because we consider not our lives unto
death. This level of radical obedience produces believers who
will truly follow the Lamb wherever He goes—no matter the
consequences.
This is the nature of a hero—and God is calling for spiritual
heroes in this hour. The word heroism speaks of bravery and
fearlessness. Heroes fight not for themselves, but for their
King’s honor, their country’s honor, a greater honor than their
own acclaim. These qualities of selfless valor are not born of
the flesh, however. We cannot exert our will and abilities to
become a dread champion. On the contrary, our heroism is in
direct proportion to our yielding to Christ, the one true Hero.
Only as we yield to the Holy Spirit will we be equipped to
display these outstanding qualities of God’s champions.
Arise and Be Bold as a Lion
Scripture declares in Proverbs 28:1, “The wicked flee when no
man pursues (them), but the righteous are as bold as a lion.”
It is time to arise and shine!
Holy Scripture warns that, in the end times, the love of many
will turn cold (see Matt. 24:12). We must not let the light of our
hearts dim, but we are to be a shining beacon of hope and love,
radiating God brightly in a sin-darkened world (see Matt. 5:14-
16). If our light is to remain bright, however, we must rally
now…. Now! We must embrace the call to become “keepers of
the fire” and defend the flame of the Holy Spirit.
This is who you are now, beloved: you are a people of burning
passion, standing strong and filled with true conviction—
never cowering, no matter the persecution or attack. Although
we are observing an all-out attack to undermine the foundation
of the Church and our nation, you are called to burn brightly
with passionate love and radical obedience, true to the King.
This is the call of the dread champions.

Unleashing the Spirit of Revival


The sounds of revival can be heard in every generation, from
the sound of a mighty, rushing wind on Pentecost, to the
prayers of a young girl from Wales, Scotland that launched the
great Welch revival, to Azusa Street, to the Latter Rain
outpouring, Cain Ridge Revival, Jansenists, Hugenots, to the
more modern, healing revivalists like Maria Woodworth Etter,
they all had a sound.
What sound do we carry? I believe it is yet to be seen.
However, whenever God moved, it was with the sound of a
roar, the sound of a people who were His.
There is much being talked about in this season of time in the
church as well as in the secular arena about the year 2012.
Documentaries have been made from the History channel to
Discovery Channel and beyond surrounding a pending shift
coming to the earth. Some say it’s the literal end of the world,
others are saying it’s the end of the world as we know it, but all
agree on one thing: change is coming to the planet.
Many are speculating that a doomsday of sorts will hit the
planet in the form of an asteroid, or earthquake or some other
form of calamity. All of this is centered around dates given by
specific people groups from thousands of years ago, all of
whom are not connected in anyway shape, fashion or form.
The Mayan civilization was known for their unique ability to
accurately predict events according to the solar and lunar
calendar. The Mayan calendar is a system of calendars and
almanacs used in the Maya civilization of pre-Columbian
Mesoamerica, and in some modern Maya communities in
highland Guatemala and Oaxaca, Mexico. The essentials of the
Maya calendar system are based upon a system that had been
in common use throughout the region, dating back to at least
the 5th century BCE.
Mayan civilization, known for advanced writing, mathematics
and astronomy, flourished for centuries in Meso-America,
especially between A.D. 300 and 900. Its Long Count calendar,
which was discontinued under Spanish colonization, tracks
more than 5,000 years, then resets at year zero.
Part of the 2012 mystique stems from the stars. On the winter
solstice in 2012, the sun will be aligned with the center of the
Milky Way for the first time in about 26,000 years. The Solstice
on December 21, 2012, precisely at 11:11 am Universal time,
marks the completion of the 5,125 year Great Cycle of the
Ancient Maya Long Count Calendar. Rather than being a linear
end-point, this cycle that is closing is naturally followed by the
start of a new cycle. What this new cycle has in store for
humanity is what many call a mystery that has yet to unfold.

The Super Shift


The Scriptures teach us that the heavens declare the Glory of
God. Long before Astronomers and Astrologists were noted
for the study of the stars, God had a cosmic timetable
embedded in the universe that would keep perfect time and
foretell the coming of great events. Daniel along with
astrologists from his time knew these things as he accurately
portrayed the coming of Messiah in numbers of days. The
“wise men” who came seeking Jesus from the far east were
astrologers that knew the times and the season of the coming
of this heavenly King that was to be born in Bethlehem
because of Daniel’s understanding of the cosmic calendar.
They came looking for a “star” and were guided to the Christ
by that star in the heavens. That Cosmic revelation ushered in
a Super Shift in humanity that resulted in the redemption of
mankind by the blood of Jesus Christ, the second Adam. This
Super Shift was the beginning of a new cycle and the New
Testament of the church. The government of God came to the
earth and an era of power and revelation was ushered into the
church. All of this happened by the heavens declaring it. All of
this happened within the understanding of God’s Cosmic
calendar.
Job 38:31-33 talks about the signs of the Zodiac in the heavens:
Can you bind the chains of [the cluster of
stars called] Pleiades, or loose the cords of
[the constellation] Orion? 32Can you lead
forth the signs of the zodiac in their season?
Or can you guide [the stars of] the Bear with
her young? Do you know the ordinances of
the heavens? Can you establish their rule
upon the earth?
1 Chronicles 12:32 says that the sons of Issachar were men
who had understanding of the times to know what Israel
should do. They were men who had a revelation of the times
and seasons who knew what God was saying and were able to
communicate this to the house of Israel.

God’s Cosmic Calendar


I believe that the heavens are like a cosmic calendar that
foretells all that God has in store for us. Even science has
found this to be true and to be accurate right down to the exact
second. The early Mayan civilization knew this as well as other
civilizations and were able to accurately count and predict
times and seasons with astounding accuracies. As this relates
to the 2012 date, I believe that the heavens are definitely
portraying a point of demarcation coming to the planet. Many
see it and are speculating what this all means. The new age
community sees it as a shift in upper consciousness that will
propel mankind into a God like state of being. I definitely don't
believe this, however there is something foreshadowed by the
hand of God that is getting the attention of the world.
I believe we are moving into a Super Shift in the body of Christ
that will unlock mysteries to the Kingdom of God in ways the
church has never seen before. Just as the heavens declared the
coming of Jesus Christ, the second Adam would come and be
the first born among many brothers, so I believe that the
Church of Jesus Christ is being prepared to usher in a second
coming of the Lord Jesus Christ with incredible miracles,
healings, signs and wonders. I personally believe that we are in
a place in human history in which great mysteries are being
revealed by revelation knowledge. The blinders that have been
upon the corporate church will no longer be able to sustain
their obstruction, as revelation and understanding will propel
the church forward. She will know the power of Christ in us—
the hope of Glory. The occult sees this paradigm shift coming
but the Church seems to be blind to it. God always reveals in
the heavens first what He is going to reveal on the earth.

2012 The Year of Man


Bob Jones was shown a vision about the years 2009 to 2012.
He saw 2009 was the year of plowing or the year of the Ox. 2010
was the year of the eagle. 2011 is the year of the Lion where
great keys of authority have been given the church to unlock
the new realms of the Kingdom of God. Those keys unlock the
power the enemy and power over the natural realm. We have
passed the year of the roaring of the Lion of the Tribe of Judah.
But the year 2012 is the year of the face of the Man. It’s in this
season that all four of these faces will begin to move together
ushering in the mobile throne of God. Ezekiel saw this vision in
Ezekiel chapters 1 and 2. The Throne of God moved with eyes
and wings, wheels within wheels moving where the Spirit of the
Lord moved it. Like Bob Jones, I believe 2012 is the beginning
of what many are seeing of a release of Kingdom authority on
the earth that trumps any other era or age before it.

A New Breed of Super Humans


The heavens are declaring this Super Shift now, and we are
going to witness a coming forth of an anointed people group
that move in the upper realms of revelation and power being
prepared to bring in and end time a harvest of souls! They will
not do this by conventional means but by a new breed of super
humans, moving with supernatural ability and looking just like
their older brother, Jesus Christ. Jesus paid the ultimate price in
blood to produce from seed form what will be revealed in these
last days as a mature bride that has grown and developed
throughout the last 2,000 years. He is the first born among
many brothers or those who look like the Original Seed. And
this company will do the same miracles and greater to reveal
the true nature of God in the earth.

Furious Sound of Glory Conclusion


This book, The Furious Sound of Glory, is a clarion call to an
end time church to rise from slumber into a glorious end time
church that moves in the same miracles Jesus did. At the end
of the age it is clear there is a great harvest of souls coming in.
This harvest will be brought in by a supernatural generation
that has been thoroughly prepared for harvest. This many-
membered, corporately anointed Body of Christ will do the
same miracles Jesus did 2,000 years ago. We are His Body and
He will reap the reward to His suffering. The Lord will Roar out
of Zion and the harvest will come in. Get ready. This is the
season, now is the time and we are the generation through
which the Lord Jesus Christ will release The Furious Sound of
Glory.
