Forgotten Prayers

In prayer recently I saw a field with many holes which were dug about 3 feet deep. I asked the Lord what were in the holes and I believe he said two things. The first was the Lord has been digging up things within us, giving revelation of our misperceptions of His truth, so it no longer affects our present behavior and beliefs.

With all prayer and petition at all times in the Spirit, and with this in view, be on the alert with all perseverance and petition for all the saints...
— Ephesians 6:18

The holes were then being covered up because the truth had now been revealed.

The second thing He was doing was uncovering unanswered prayers that we got tired of praying and had laid down, and even forgotten about.  We lost hope, got discouraged and disillusioned that they would ever be answered. He is now uncovering some of those unanswered prayers, encouraging us with a new hope and passion that now is the season for those prayers to be declared again and watch what happens by His grace. These holes were then being covered up as each prayer was now answered.

It is a new season of transformation from some of our old ways of thinking and behavior.  This is ushering in a new energy to revive the forgotten prayers that God by grace is now ready to answer through new declarations of faith.  Thank you Lord for your grace to persevere, relying on your strength to accomplish your purposes.

Joy To The World

Joy to the world! My Son has come! Let the earth ring out with My joy. Hark the Herald Angels sing! Do you hear them singing in heaven, rejoicing for what I am doing in the earth. At times it seems dark. At times there are challenges. At times you wonder where I am, but I am always with you. I never leave you and I never forsake you. Just like the butterfly that must be hidden for a time in darkness as it develops, only I know the time of release. And at that moment the butterfly comes forth and flies.

And so it shall be with you in this season. You will find this a season of joy in your life, no matter what is happening in your surroundings and no matter what is happening in the earth. This is going to be a time of joy for My people, for I am going to release My light within you that will shine in the darkness. I will release within you all that you have asked for in power and the manifestation of My Spirit. For I am coming in a new way in the earth and you shall be privy to see it and to walk in it with Me. So rejoice! Rejoice! Rejoice! Rejoice! This is a new time and a new season in the earth and you will see, you will see My light shine forth in places where it's been said, "O, Lord, it's so dark. Will You ever come? Can You ever change this? But you will see that underneath the darkness, I have been moving in My spirit and the rivers of My water have been churning and they will spew forth in the earth. And there will be a time of great joy, great release, great redemption, great revelation, great wisdom, great understanding, great healing and great manifestations of My Spirit; and you will soon be hearing, "Rejoice! Rejoice!" And wait for that time in darkness as I prepare to release you and watch you fly.

The Angels Dance

Please enjoy the following song of the Lord by Deborah Mathewson, given during The Covenant Center worship.

Around the Throne - Around the Presence
Around the Throne the angels dance.
Around the Throne in the Holy Presence
Around the Throne the angels dance.
They dance and then they bow.
They dance and then they bow.
The dance and then they bow.
They dance and then they bow.
They dance and then they bow.
And then they shout
The name of Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus
Around the throne the angels dance
If they can do it so can I
Around the throne the angels bow
If they can do it so can we
Around the throne the angels sing
If they can do it we can too
Around the throne and in the sky
The angels are alive,, the angels are alive
And they worship and they bow
And they sing and they bow
And they dance and they bow
And they shout and they bow
And they sing Holy, Holy, Holy, Holy, Holy
Holy is the Lord
Holy is the Lord
Holy, Holy, Holy, Holy,
They dance and they bow
They dance and they sing
They dance and they bow, so can we
The dance and they bow
They dance and they sing
They dance and they bow
Dance and they bow - Worship the King
They sing Holy, Holy, Holy, Holy is the King!
Holy, Holy, Holy, Holy, Holy, Holy, Holy, Holy Holy

I Have Been Forging A People - Becky Maisenbacher

I have been forging a people. The training and transformation has been challenging. The basic training of My Spirit which you have surrendered to has been long and the preparation great. For you have enlisted in My Kingdom Forces. My military. My army. It has been a time to learn surrender, a time to learn obedience, a a time to learn patience, a time to learn to work as a team, and a time to be grounded in the foundations of My Spirit, My Word and My Kingdom.

I have been training you. I have trained you to take you from the culture of self to the culture of My Kingdom. For in My Kingdom you have learned that the last shall be first and the poor in spirit, those of a contrite heart, and those who walk in humility and My love are promoted. For now, Love, Love will be My banner over you and it will now be My military flag.

Promotion is coming. It is now at hand. For I am moving you into advanced training as I transform My Church. Some will be foot soldiers, some assigned to My Air Force, some will be My stealth fighters and prepare for My special ops, some will be medics and some will sit with Me and plan and strategize with Me for Kingdom advancement. All will be navy seals of My Spirit and we will work as a team to take the land and advance My Kingdom.

The training is at times arduous. Some have been wounded. But know in the coming days as the battles rage you will see that you have been trained and well prepared for what lies ahead and what I have called you to do. And you will ride with Me and clearly see and hear My battle plans. And we will go forth in victory and you will rejoice with Me and declare: "Look what our Lord has done!" You will see that My training as well as My correction, has been good and with purpose.

Now is the time of preparation and diligence to look back and cross every "t" and dot every "i." Bring to completion past assignments. Spend time with Me in our secret place. As we enter advanced training and preparation there will be fresh release for the things I have for you, as we proclaim the battle cry: "Forward! Forward!" Know My plan for you is always victory!
