Northwest

Excerpts from Elijah List Conference (Oct 2007) in Albany, OR. Prophetic words from Chuck Pierce, Dutch Sheets, Stacy Campbell, and Steve Shultz; of 2007 and where we’re going in 2008.
“Entering a year of Gates. Entering through the Gate (Beautiful) “Right Time” or the gate of miracles, signs and wonders. It is the right time for the lame to walk. Healings and miracles were hanging in the air. Even as the famous Bill Gates, who took a product of the select few and gave it to the world. We (Gates of the NW) will be the gates of miracles. We will send out ministers to the world and people of the world will come to us. Hidden gates will be revealed”

“Winds of the Lord will blow on the NW and cleanse it, darkness and curses of the past in our lives and on the land of the NW are being nullified by the grace of God (back ten generations), and we are receiving the blessing and our inheritance (the unfulfilled promises). The places of sorrow will begin to rejoice” (Note: A major wind storm (80 mph) is blew through the region that Saturday and Sunday. It was compared to the winds of Columbus Day in 1960′s)

“New mantles are being given. Mantles of NW ministries before us, A.A. Allen, Aimee Semple McPherson, John G. Lake and others were hanging in the air, because no one had put them on. They were like on a clothes line, we need to reach up and grab them and put them on. Mega grace and mega power are clothing us”

“Even the Revolution spirit of the east has been shifted to the NW and out of the NW he will birth a spirit of revolution in the earth. God has not forgotten the NW and what He has done here in the past.”

Visions of the NW
Antonio Smith – March 08
I had two visions in March, at the USAA “Aligning Nations” Conference in Colorado Springs that were of the NW. In the first one I was looking at the NW from and elevated position in the Middle of the States. Looking over the Rockies, I seen a checkerboard pattern over the NW. It was a chess game. I seen the game pieces bunched up in different places on the board. Then a huge hand from heaven swept across the board and cleared all the game pieces off. A voice said “I am still in charge of the game.” The hand then begin to reposition the game pieces back on the board.

The game of chess is a strategic war game, really a battle between two kingdoms, one dark and one light. The kingdom’s armies consist of a king and queen (Bride), Bishops, Knights, and foot soldiers. Each of these levels of authority move in a very specific way or pattern. Although they have different patterns of movement and levels of authority, anyone of them has the ability to force the other king to submit.

You win the game by strategically positioning your army in a way that constricts the movement of the other king. This is called “Checkmate.” The king is not destroyed, but he must lay down in submission. It does not matter how many in his kingdom, even if it is the queen, you defeat, you must still stop the king to win. There is also a part of the game where you can restore a person that you have lost in battle.

This is what I received from this vision: Many of you understand that we (the church,body of Christ) are in a spiritual battle (Eph 6:12) for territories and regions. We are part of a kingdom and we have a king; there is a Queen (Bride/Church) and Bishops (priestly annointing), knights (elite warriors, captains, generals, and those who have been transformed and even promoted by having been touched by the sword (Word) of the king. Then there are the foot soldiers (The everyday saint who sometimes goes unnoticed). The awesome thing to remember is that even the foot soldier has the authority to and can defeat the apposing king. (Matt 10:1)

Sometimes it has felt like the enemy has us surrounded and backed into a corner where we cannot move in our authority or gifting and all we can think about is just surviving. In the survival mode we have failed to strategize our next moves. (Great chess players are those who can visualize and foresee the enemies moves before he moves. They plan for moves that are yet to happen and are two or three steps ahead. For them, things don’t just happen. They are on the offensive and they make them happen. (Matt 11:12)

Many of us have cried out to God for strategies. He has given us strategies and sometimes we have missed our opportunities and relied on our own abilities, but God is reminding us that He is still in control and He will deal a swift blow to the enemy and reestablish the positions of His forces. The NW is in the midst of a shift and God is positioning His army. In our area alone, there has been a change of guard establishing up to nine new pastors. I foresee God restoring and reestablishing ministries who have been in a state of checkmate, and reconstructing governmental positions in our local churches. Some ministries will likely be promoted to their eternal positions..

I was getting ready to move Chuck Pierce’s word (“The Voice of Change is Coming”), but something he prophesied caught my eye as I reread it. Reread the article I have placed below and notice this statement “Spheres of authority will be rearranged in these next 40 days.”

Under the Shadow of the Cross
In the second vision, I was looking at the NW from the same vantage point as before. I seen a large cross positioned on top of the mountain range (Rockies/ Bitterroot). As the sun was rising in the east it caused a shadow of the cross to fall across the NW.

One of my favorite scriptures is found in Psalms 91 and declares that “they that dwell (makes his habitation) in the secret place of the Most High, shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty” We are under the shadow of the Almighty, but I believe that the grace of God that will cover the NW.

“Cutting Edge Technology from NW”

Kim Clement – Long Island, NY – April 20, 2008
“The eyes of them that have been blinded,” the Spirit of God says, “will be opened. Congregants and constituents that walked away and spat at you–and they did–shall come and they shall return. And they shall say, ‘From the spit that was on the ground, may something be formed to open our eyes again, please.’”For God said, “This I say to you today, for every mockery and everything that has been spoken and for the spittle that has gone onto the ground, I will take it and I will form it, and I will put it in their eyes and open the eyes of New York City, I will open the eyes of Long Island.

“I will open the eyes of every island,” and God said, “You will say, ‘What has happened?’ For suddenly Elijah prophesied, ‘Go back to your valley. Go back to your valley, dig holes and ditches, and wait.’” The Spirit of God said, “Suddenly, in the early hours of the morning from Edom, came water. An abundance shall come, not from the tithe of the Church, not from the offerings of the saints; it shall come from Edom, for I will unblock something and shall bring from the unholy places, and bring from the religious settings, and bring from New York City–even from beyond that place. You will say, ‘Where? How?’”

God said, “I will bring, and they will come, and you will say, ‘Everything has been paid off! Everything has been cleared up! We can build again, we can build again, we can build again, we can build again, yes!’ Your children, the young men and women of this city, shall occupy this place!

Please do not take this lightly–and I know that you do not–for some begin to despise prophecy because it doesn’t seem to unfold. “I’ve surrounded you with some very good people, but there are a few more to come. They will come, not from religious institutions, but they shall be taught by the ways of the world.

“Your technology shall be so cutting edge, your internet and your page shall explode. They will watch and they will say the people I’m giving you are innovative, creative, young men. They shall take this from a multi-million-dollar concern to a billion-dollar concern.” Why? And people don’t shout for that, because they don’t like “billion” with “church.” If we don’t change our mind, we’re going to stick back there with “million.” You think a million’s a lot?

God’s changing our whole structure, our whole economy. “There is an economy of grace. There’s a whole new system that’s been raised up,” says the Spirit.

“A whole, brand new computer that has a speed greater than lightning. People shall say, ‘No, this thing is evil.’” God says, “It’s My doing! This computer and this whole technology shall reach the entire earth. Every being on the face of the earth shall be reached by this ludicrous–they call it ludicrous–speed. And it shall be possible for men and women in India, third world countries, to hear the Gospel in seconds!

“Out of New York and Seattle, Washington, this shall happen. I say this to you because I am going to give you and have given you young men and women that are so sharp, you will be one of the first to have this technology. You shall use it and change it to a multi-billion dollar concern. Why?” God said, “So that you will be able to fund, you will be able to give out, and as in the days of Moses, you will say to the people ‘Stop giving, we have too much!’”

Can you imagine that? Stop giving, we have too much!

“And they have said, ‘He will die before this.’ Ha, My servants do not die so easily! For what you’ve dreamed about and what you’ve prayed about, what you’ve cried about, what you’ve had sorrow about shall change–not in the year 2008, the year 2009.
