Thermometer Or Thermostat?


"At this I fell at his feet to worship him. But he said to me, 'Do not do it! I am a fellow servant with you and with your brothers who hold to the testimony of Jesus. Worship God! For the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.'" Revelation 19:10

"The Son is the radiance of God's glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word. After he had provided purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven." Hebrews 1:3

"Is not this the kind of fasting I have chosen: to loose the chains of injustice and untie the cords of the yoke, to set the oppressed free and break every yoke? Is it not to share your food with the hungry and provide the poor wanderer with shelter...when you see the naked, to clothe him, and not to turn away from your own flesh and blood (family...Brothers and Sisters in Christ)? Then your light will break forth like the dawn, and your healing will quickly appear; then your righteousness will go before you, and the glory of the Lord will be your rear guard. Then you will call, and the Lord will answer; you will cry for help, and he will say: Here I am." Isaiah 58:6-9

Years ago, I was asked to conduct an extended "Miracle Rally" at Christ For The Nations, in Dallas, Texas. The auditorium was packed with college students, hungry for the Word, with signs following. They were not disappointed, as hundreds were healed, inspired and overcome by the Holy Spirit. For many, this became an admittedly unprecedented "baseline" of reference, for what would prophetically unfold over the years. Mundane would no longer be the norm in their lives. As several exclaimed, "You are young, like us. Look at this Power! God is not restricted by age!" Oh, how encouraging that was for me.

Here are a few photos from that great crusade:



Without a single doubt, I can assure the reader of one absolute fact. God has called all to greatness in Him. Our Blood-backed Commission, incorporating, mandating and embracing a preaching of the Gospel, healing the sick, casting out devils, and raising the dead, is merely a general outline of what lies ahead for those acknowledging and obeying Glory's inherent still, small Voice, Heaven's GPS, that marvelous Instrument of Divine plan, purpose, design and destiny.

Consider the temperature of your present environment. Perhaps, this is being felt and read in a chilly location. The opposite may be true for some. Hot, warm and cold are descriptive factors of a human's central nervous system. Usually, the sensory reports such conditions to the brain, in order to facilitate intelligent choices for comfort and, most importantly, protection and preservation of life, itself.

Wherever one might be, it's likely that a thermometer has been conveniently positioned, for the express purpose of displaying and reflecting varying temperatures. Needless to say, the device remains passive, unable to act upon the very influences of measurement. Realistically, a person could either fry or freeze, if he or she solely depended upon this tool for protection and safety. Thermometers, once more, are passive, possessing no power to morph the climate of spaces...rooms and structures.

Some men, women and children, basically fall into that identical category. They posture themselves to describe, discuss, debate, or complain about, perceived situations and circumstances, not recognizing that reflectiveness, in itself, can never be remedial. All the talk in this world cannot modify much. Thoughts and words, absent the power (thermostat) necessary for bringing themselves to pass, are of little value, unless this preludes a prompting of motivation and corresponding responses.

Not so with a thermostat! When chilly or warm, the majority of people are inclined to check their thermometers. Weather people do this all the time. They fairly accurately predict weather activity and the fluctuation of a daily temperature spectrum.

We often make personal and corporate decisions around their reports. Within this scenario, you and I additionally determine what is necessary for productive living, then act upon the outcome of that contemplative process. A central air system, known as a thermostat, establishes the ultimate level of comfort. Subsequently, thoughts become acts...adjusting the level of comfortability.

The Church, namely Christians, having their being in Him, are on this planet for one significant assignment. We have been afforded a marvelous opportunity, that of plundering hell and populating Heaven. God's Kingdom isn't in word (thermometer...helpless victimization), but Power (thermostat) and a demonstration of the Spirit. She has become the Spout where Heaven's Glory come out. The Bride literally approaches and enters realms of negativity, darkness, and naturally impossible challenges, hears from the Throne Room, then instantly takes charge, by impacting the essence and nature of spiritual and physical venues. The excellency of that internally-activated Treasure (thermostat) triggers compassion, a flow...Rivers of Living Water, and Supernatural outcome.

I am convicted of this prophetic truth. The Believer is being elevated to a point, via intimacy with the Holy One, where he or she will walk into any and all given locales, triggering a reconfiguration of atoms and molecules, while bringing to pass the Father's heartcry. Even the dead shall hear Glory's Voice and live. Thus, the miraculous becomes God's norm, culminating in scores being added to the Lamb's Book of Life.

Imagine strolling along, while carrying out a heavenly assignment, walking in the Spirit, really, as untold numbers feel the Radiation (heat) of that Presence, are healed, saved and forever changed, due to the glorious Influence, not unlike being drawn to the sweetness of a particular perfume, or the aroma linked to the finest culinary dishes.

Thermometer or thermostat? God's Beloved are sent to the four corners of this globe as Ambassadors of Change...Thermostats, fully in charge, independent and in control of circumstances. The Apostle Paul was like that! Nevertheless, for him, this promotion was a reward for His sensitivity to the Holy Spirit, boldness, and willingness to obey.

A book could be written on a prophetic word, granted last night. Heaven's Revelator spoke of "the man in the middle." The Bible says little about him, aside from the fact that a double-minded (middle) person (in the middle, halted between two opinions) is unstable in all ways. Secondly, luke-warmness will be spewed out of His mouth. Nonetheless, the first shall be last, and the last, first. It's voting time for all! Last or first, but not middle!

While preparing for the weekend, the Lord once more drew my attention to several sequential visions, afforded over the last five years, of an "Open Heaven." The Throne Room and earth have never been closer than they are this very moment. In line with that, we don't need a hearing aid to discern the Lord's message, only an available, willing and obedient heart. Our spiritual receptors must remain closed to worldly noise...basically a composition of fear, doubt, worry, unbelief, sin-consciousness, false accusations, shame, blame, guilt, fragmented identity, and other associated baggage from the past. There's absolutely no room for those old wineskins, if we're to fully embrace what's about to literally and figuratively descend upon this planet, since hell's contrariness will surely be virtually ripped apart by the Glory of God. The newness of unlimited vision is the foundation of this new walk, into which the Body of Christ has been called.

Let's venture back to that ever-widening and expanding Heavenly rent. Nothing excites me more than when the revelatory takes a turn in that particular direction. This is what was unveiled, just hours ago:

I could clearly see what He had begun December 24, 1999. It was a cascading to earth of silver and gold, neatly wrapped, ribboned and decorated presents, and various fruits, which represented the Holy Spirit's gifts and attributes, including anatomical body parts for those requiring them. Each item was being directed toward those embracing Covenant, along with others whose backs were against the proverbial wall of seemingly overwhelming trials, oppression and other challenges. The good and perfect appeared to be immediately drawn like a magnet to sin, sickness, poverty, death, ministerial obstacles, and other types of contrariness. Darkness assumed illumination. Confining bars could no longer hinder God's Army in their forward movement of fulfilling the Great Commission. Like an overwhelming floodtide, no person or thing was able to avoid becoming impacted by both appetite and a satiation of desires, dreams and visions. Suddenly, the fist of the Most High began slamming into the jagged edges of Heaven's already perforated membrane. While observing this unfolding progression, not unlike being in the audience of a breath-taking movie as the plot was about to reveal itself, I could see an urgent intent behind each Divine blow. Heaven appeared cognizant of the hour's urgency and the sustained, often trying, tarrying of the Obedient. Holding Him back at this point was out of the question. The powers and cohorts of hell could only be still, step aside and watch, while the Lord's will was prolifically accomplished on earth, exactly as it had been in Heaven. Plainly, this was the beginning of the end, and end of the former beginning. The Alpha and Omega crossed all timelines, correcting innumerable mistakes and acts, bent upon destroying humanity. The Blood of Christ and truth were the Power behind the richest display of the miraculous to date, with Believers assuming a new posture of certainty and gifts of faith, while facilitating a manifestation of that which had been placed within the womb of each spirit over the years. Tucked away commands and promises took on fresh vigor, responding to the New Wind, that of the Third Person of the Trinity, becoming flesh before millions around the world. Another fact was disclosed to this writer. Much sowing, in the form of intercessory prayers and other acts of compliance, was translated into substance, overnight, as the Word became flesh and dwelt among men, women and children, many of whom had questioned the existence and reality of a loving Creator. All this encouraged the nations' faithful to boldly and confidently enter an already ripe harvest for the working of greater exploits. Clouds of Condensation, arising from Rivers of Living Water, flowing from compassionate Vessels of Honor, covered city blocks, entire towns, states and portions of nations, generating the Supernatural, modeled by Old and New Covenants, combined and exponentially multiplied in an unparalleled overwhelming. That accomplished in the Name above all others rapidly pointed to the Sender. Multitudes instantly knew "this was that," prophesied by Joel, and other prophets over the centuries. The response was expedient and exciting. Death had been defeated to the uttermost. "Jesus is Lord!," become an international declaration!

The Holy Spirit is so faithful in never ceasing to reveal the Risen Christ and His Word. Additionally, He thrills over exciting the Church with what's just around the corner, as the Father can do nothing without first telling His servants, the prophets. What a marvelous office!

The Seer, or one who is gifted in perceiving the Director's intent, can journey into the future and declare the matter already done. In line with the Prophet's office, Jesus is the Spirit of Prophecy. The Christian encapsulates His Mind and readily "sees and hears," during those frequent trips to the Throne Room and precious seasons of fellowship.

Hear this well! Don't ever imprison untested and unvented thoughts within your natural mind. Bringing every suggestion into captivity and casting down vain imaginations are so vitally important, if we are to maintain a clean conduit and succinctly receive the revelatory from the Author and Finisher of all that is.

Let's once more examine Divine progression. Without accepting Christ as Lord and Savior, there is no active Covenant in a person's life. However, when a heart is turned over to Him, the indwelling Spirit seals the agreement, deeming that one a Member of the Family, marking him to be present on that special day, while reserving a seat for the Marriage Supper of the Lamb. The Revelator enters and ongoingly imparts Heaven's identity, will and purpose. Intimacy, revelation, gestation and manifestation ensue. Oh, what marvelous exploits follow those choosing to lay down the lower life for that higher plateau in Him!

The Bride's Invigorator is wooing us to His Sanctuary. Let's follow, as He takes us to higher spiritual altitudes!

The Hiding Place!

"Redeemed Beloved, ponder those precious occasions of old, when as a child you packed a little lunch and, with innocent enthusiasm, entered your little fantasy world and eagerly ventured into those unknown places, often not far from home. The child within pretended, envisioned and simply played out that which had become a seemingly real part of your thought life. Some entered homemade cabins and tree houses...towers of assembled sticks, pieces of wood. Others championed a special locale or spot, where no one else would likely enter, since that position was meticulously hidden from those who might pass by, or reside within ear and eyeshot of the fort. You are living in an hour and day of dreams and visions. Therein lie both call and destiny. Has it not been written that I've Personally gone before the Family, making crooked highways straight and preparing the way? Well, one of those spots has a special name...The Secret (Hiding) Place! In order to enter Heaven, you must become as a enthusiastic Youngster...rich with vision and fantasy... Mine! Does a little one fear or lack faith, even when natural promises, accorded by those with the best and highest of intentions, are unkept? Assuredly not! Nevertheless, I Am a God Who cannot lie. Oh, how the Holy Spirit is continually wooing you to enter Our little corner of preparation. Assimilate this, without reservation or hesitation. There are great and mighty things that you know not of, all of which are to be shared with Glory's Visitors. No good thing will be withheld. The One Who requests your 'all' gives His all! Those who presently lack, neither ask for nor request what is supported by Covenant...that quickened, made alive Word. Not allowing the Instructor to share the Oracles of Heaven results in an immediate handicap. There are many voices out there. The Family must know the Father well. A stone for a loaf of bread is never to be feared, since I have a full-time duty and responsibility of watching over My revelations to perform them. Are you ready for another neat morsel of truth? The Book says it well. I Am a very present...in the now help...when seasons of need arise. Your Lover operates and has His being in the now! All you'll ever need, from wisdom to Resurrection Power, is automatic. Retain this knowledge, since I will allude to it in the future. Christ Jesus was slain from the foundation of the world, before man was formed and sin entered the planet. Don't miss this truth: Provision consistently precedes the need, a reward for following those nudgings and promptings within. You'll never be called to fall or fail. In the spirit world, victory has already been acquired. The Church is instructed to fearlessly enter wherever She is dispatched, and joyfully possess the land, while displaying unquestionable victory. Once more, always having full sufficiency in everything pertaining to life and godliness cannot be deemed ethereal, but literal! You are to live, not by (worldly) bread alone, but by each word or revelation that proceeds from the mouth of God. Within this forward march, We will move and have Our being in agreement and resounding certainly. Humanity's net worth is determined by one's personal network. Every individual takes on the essence of his environment. Within that Secret Place and in My Presence is the completeness of joy. The Fragrance of Glory will precede your every move. Come up hither. Don't postpone that trip! Let us reason together. Nothing is too big or small for discussion. Your dispatch orders will pull you from the past, while offering success in the present. Those old wineskins were doomed when the Savior declared...'It is finished!' The tomb was embarrassingly unsuccessful in confining Jesus to the past. Throw out that rearview mirror and celebrate this acceleration of the miraculous! Therein is reserved a Glory beyond the imaginable! A hungry heart has been programmed to connect with the Presence of God. You will never run out of the Anointing. Contained within that Unction is the ability for eternal self-perpetuation!"

The Holy Spirit spoke to me, years ago, in an Orange County mausoleum, of all places, prior to that Trinity Broadcasting Network (TBN) Gold Manifestation, witnessed by millions. This is what He had to say: "Southern California has been deemed 'Ground Zero' for this Ministry. Your journey will be far-reaching, to the far corners of the earth. However, focus must remain on this region...Greater Los Angeles. I have richly anointed and called you to take My Word and Heaven's miraculous to where Glory's Light is dim and the Father's Voice is seemingly silent."

Additionally, the Lord has entrusted this work with the hearts of many precious souls, from prisoners to the extremely well known in the arts. Heaven possesses unbelievable Supernatural plans for each. We must be faithful to that call, deliver those messages, and become dutiful servants.

Journey into the Archives Section of this site, and discover a myriad of prophetic offerings, concerning key people who are to be used by the Father in these great days of Outpouring. Some are mentioned by name. Others are not. Within days and hours of those revelatory pronouncements, the unveiled was literally fulfilled, even in jail cells, in and through the most internationally gifted and known people.

The Church is living in a Season of Suddenlies. She must ready Herself to move with Glory's shifting Breeze, a stirring, exponentially gaining momentum and potency from the Mercy Seat. A quick work is being accomplished for the Kingdom!

Please unite your prayers with ours, in this most recent shift. Together, we will plunder hell and populate Heaven. Never forget, when your sole purpose in life is practicing His Presence, all else will be taken care of!

God often grants a destiny dream that natural man immediately rejects. Only spirit can comprehend Spirit. Nevertheless, in this downloading process, a gift of faith arises, for the express purpose of underscoring, validating, gestating and birthing the previously unthinkable and impossible. We are there now. Let's move into that newness with all vigor!

I want to sincerely and gratefully thank those who have sown precious seed into this Ministry of the Miraculous. Our outreach is fertile ground. You have approached the Lord with a gift. Your reward will be equal to mine. In plain terms, partnership is a committed process of locking arms. Prayers and financial sacrifices have never gone unnoticed in God's Kingdom. Both allow me to take the Father's Word, signs and wonders to hurting people, those whose lives and eternal destinies depend upon this synergy. Without question, scores are on their way to Heaven, have been healed, thereby avoiding an early grave, because of Him and you. Thanks for that! Together, in total obedience, let's conduit Glory's Electricity, a creative presentation of God's love, to the four corners of this world. No gift is too small or big. He'll anoint every sown seed. In the meantime, expect Heaven to invade your life with Love Letters and a rich display of Covenant!
