Hello Firestorm:
On Tuesday, Dec 31st, Firestorm gathered in the FS Tuesday Night Forum to hear what the Lord was revealing to His Church in 2014. My co-host, Jim Mellard, was not able to attend due to a virus. I surely missed his prophetic comments and fellowship, however, he did send me his word from the Lord for 2014, which is enclosed below.
There were some computer glitches and normal resistance, but all in all, we were able to meet, share the words, have our first communion for 2014 together and enjoy the fellowship.
The following are words and information shared from Firestorm friends regarding what the Lord revealed to them for 2014. Blessings to you all.

Gematria
- Fourteen is the numerical value of the name of David, and of the words “hand” and “gold” in Hebrew, this last one being the symbol of the original purity of the matter.
Occurrence
- The number 14 is used 50 times in the Bible.
The Virgin Mary was 14 years old at the time of Annunciation according to the visions of Mary Agreda, that is to say exactly 14 years, 6 month and 17 days.
Properties of the number 14
Symbolism
- This number “represents the figure of the Christ immolated the fourteenth day of the moon, and at similar day the children of Israel had command to celebrate the Passover, that is to say the passage of the Red Sea”, according to C. Agrippa.
- Regarded as the number of David according to the Bible. The evangelist Matthew would have organized the genealogy of Jesus on this basis.
- It is the number of the good and the charity.
Bible
- The fourteen generations of Abraham to David, just as of David to the deportation of Babylon, and the deportation of Babylon to the Christ. (Mt 1,1-17)
- The fourteen epistles written by saint Paul, having on the whole 100 chapters and adding up 2335 verses.
- The weddings of Tobit and Sara last fourteen days. (Tb 8,20)
- With the return of Exile, after the rebuilding of the Temple, the Israelis celebrated the Passover the fourteenth day of the first month. (Ezr 6,19)
Jacob worked fourteen years for his uncle Laban in order to be able to marry his daughter Rachel. The first period of seven years he allowed him to take Leah for woman, the older sister of Rachel, and after the second period of seven years, he could finally marry Rachel.
FOURTEEN: 7 x 2 = double measure of spiritual perfection. Seven is the number of covenant and divine perfection and two is the number of the Incarnation.
The genealogy of Jesus in St. Matthew’s Gospel is divided into three sets of fourteen generations [Matthew 1:1-17]
Another Answer: In biblical numerology, some have claimed the number 7 and multiples of it (in this case 14), to represent ‘perfection/completion.’
The number 14 means many things of significance in the Bible. 14 is the double of 7, which implies Biblical perfection.
Number 14 is a positive integer number with its divisors being 1, 2, 7 and 14. Number 14 also symbolizes the Holy Spirit being stretched in the freedom and in the nature.
The 14th amendment of the US Constitution dictates what a citizen is, and provides equal protection for all under the law. It was adopted in 1868.
**************
The fourteenth day of the first month is the Passover, when God delivered the firstborn of Israel from death. Some 430 years earlier, on the night of the 14th day of the first month, God made two covenant promises to Abraham — one of the physical seed, Isaac, and his descendants, and one of the spiritual seed, Jesus Christ, and the sons of God who would come through Him, who would shine like the stars of heaven (Matthew 13:43). On the day portion of the 14th, God confirmed the promises with a special covenant sacrifice.
**************
On the 14th day of the first month in 30 A.D. Jesus Christ, God manifested in the flesh, the only begotten Son of God the Father, and the Lamb of God to take away the sin of the world, was crucified as the perfect sacrifice to save mankind from sin. Jesus’ death on Passover completed His ministry in the flesh.
Seven represents completion – thus 7 + 7 = 14, indicating a double completion:
Jesus’ ministry in the flesh was completed.
Jesus’ sacrifice ended or fulfilled the need for animal sacrifices.
**************
Fourteen
Thus there were fourteen generations in all from Abraham to David, fourteen from David to the exile in Babylon, and fourteen from the exile to the Christ. (Matthew 1:17)
The number fourteen speaks of double completion (2 x 7) and compression.
We see the meaning of this number played out in the story of Jacob and his marriage to the two daughters of Laban. Jacob worked a complete cycle, seven years for Rachel. Because Leah was older, Laban tricked Jacob into marrying her instead. After the night of consummation, Jacob awakened to weak-eyed Leah.
Because of Jacob’s love for Rachel, Laban allowed him to work another seven years for her. Thus making it double completion. However, the time was compressed because after Leah’s honeymoon was over, Laban allowed Rachel to marry Jacob and work off the seven years while being married to both women. (Genesis 29:14-30 ) And Jacob had of Rachel fourteen son and grandsons.
There were three generations from Abraham, the first Jew to David the first king. There were fourteen years from David to the exile to Babylon and fourteen years from the exile to the Christ. Genealogies often compressed history. Not every generation of ancestor was listed.
Matthew chose to compress several generations into these three sets of fourteen generations, which actually total 42 generations. When preachers say, “Jesus came down through 40 and 2 generations,” they actually illustrate the completion and compression of the history of Jesus.

This year 2014, God is increasingly going to speak to people in dreams and also
through music.
A relative just had a significant dream, (very specific)
a dream that could change her life forever. It involved a physical move.
Those that do not know the Lord, usually believe in a higher power, and we can communicate to them effectively, if we are skilled in knowing what their dreams mean.
Acts 2:17 ESV / 128
“‘And in the last days it shall be, God declares, that I will pour out my
Spirit on all flesh, and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams.
Also in Joel: 2:28
Daniel 1:17 ESV / 26
As for these four youths, God gave them learning and skill in all literature
and wisdom, and Daniel had understanding in all visions and dreams.
Amos 3:7 ESV / 73
“For the Lord God does nothing without revealing his secret to his servants the
prophets.
In 2014, the Lord will also raise up worship leaders that will worship the Lord
in Spirit and Truth. The unsaved will be attracted to this music, and the music
will just flow. Those who have been called to lead the worship will have been
through much hardship and pain.
Psalm 104:33 ESV / 174
I will sing to the Lord as long as I live; I will sing praise to my God while I
have being.
Psalm 150:1-6 ESV / 161
Praise the Lord! Praise God in his sanctuary; praise him in his mighty heavens!
Praise him for his mighty deeds; praise him according to his excellent
greatness! Praise him with trumpet sound; praise him with lute and harp! Praise
him with tambourine and dance; praise him with strings and pipe! Praise him with
sounding cymbals; praise him with loud clashing cymbals!
1 Chronicles 16:23-31
Sing to the LORD, all the earth; proclaim his salvation day after day. Declare
his glory among the nations, his marvelous deeds among all peoples. For great
is the LORD and most worthy of praise; he is to be feared above all gods. For
all the gods of the nations are idols, but the LORD made the heavens. Splendor
and majesty are before him; strength and joy in his dwelling place. Ascribe to
the LORD, O families of nations, ascribe to the LORD glory and strength,
ascribe to the LORD the glory due his name. Bring an offering and come before
him; worship the LORD in the splendor of his holiness. Tremble before him, all
the earth! The world is firmly established; it cannot be moved. Let the heavens
rejoice, let the earth be glad; let them say among the nations, “The LORD
reigns!”

Hello all. What I am sensing in my spirit for 2014 is, double blessing that for the last 7 years there has been blessings and seasons we have not been able to access, but starting 2014, God is intercepting the ball
Blessings seasons gift things that have been held up are being secured and released to all the body.
I see growth in the body, not numbers, but relational growth.
A stirring taking place in the heavenlies and like a funnel cloud and the blessings being poured downs the middle, we are moving from the outside winds to the inner circle of peace and promise.
The winds may still be blowing, but we will be unaware of them in the core of the funnel, because in 2014, we are moving into the eye of Jesus. We will hear more clearly than ever before.

It’s all about relationship.
Many will come to KNOW Him as never before
and through this will come an intimacy with the Word
Where the Word has oftentimes been laborious
it is being opened up to His people
and you will know it as His very own heart
Deb Fry
Dozed off for a second and woke up seeing the word “BLESSING”.
Here is mine downloaded from the Holy Spirit. One word.
Blessings! — But what a word!
I also saw a room filling with crystal clear water. (A good thing) The Lord wants to FLOOD us with blessings! Our Lord makes it so simple and so easy for us to understand and receive.
So believe Him and receive.
If you are IN Jesus, you are qualified! Amen!!
Proverbs 10:22 The BLESSING of the Lord, it maketh rich, and He addeth no sorrow with it.
Ephesians 1:3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ:
Psalm 68:19 Blessed be the Lord, Who daily loads us with benefits, the God of our salvation!
Isaiah 55:1 “Come, all you who are thirsty, come to the waters; and you who have no money, come, buy and eat! Come, buy wine and milk without money and without cost.”
Isaiah 44:3 For I will pour water upon him that is thirsty, and FLOODS upon the dry ground: I will pour My Spirit upon thy seed, and My blessing upon thine offspring:

Prepare Ye The Way of the Lord
Prepare Ye The Way of the Lord
Pastor Bob Hawley
In 2013 were you happy where you were?
You can choose to stay where you were
or
You can choose to go forward by making changes in 2014
Nothing will change unless
you advance and seek Him out
and take care of things He told you to do
that you have not done in the past

The Spirit spoke to me that a new sound in the Heavenlies is war, of course, but the anguish of the believers is coming before the Lord as our spirits are crying out
“come quickly Lord Jesus.”
The good news is where sin abounds, there in that place grace abounds much more. “Moreover the law entered, that the offense might abound.
But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound:”
(Rom.5:20)
The Spirit of the Lord is moving stronger across this planet than even in the days of its beginnings. He is pointing men to God. Men of all nations, yes all nations. The great harvest is at work.
Be strong and courageous, by the Spirit, for the days will look to be very dark, but be of good cheer He has overcome the world. Just a little while, and we shall see Him.
Continue to let your light shine and keep your lamp full of oil,
to the day of His coming for us the Bride.
Mary Sue Davis
I heard plainly that 2011, 12, and 13 were periods of testing. Not that the Lord is testing you, but it is the testing of the faith, the testing of the Word in you. The Word always prevails.
So, 2014 will continue to be a testing, but I see some breakthrough and settlements in issues that have been, especially those that have been here for awhile.
Since 14 is two times seven, it may stand for two cycles of something complete. Jacob had to work for Lea for seven years, and then for Rachel for another seven years. That denotes testing and the cycle being completed. 2014 is the cycle being completed.
However, the number fourteen is also King David’s number Since David’s number was 14 and the divine number three in Matthew’s communicating of the special arrangements of the generations (fathers) that Jesus was the divine king who was to take the place of King David as the greatest king of the Jews.
However, I don’t see cycles repeating in 2014, but being completed.
Jesus/ Yeshua takes the place of King David, Grace prevails over the Law.
New Year’s Day is a mark for the world; but as a believer, we live in the eternal day with our Father, being timeless. Our attitudes do not change by the marking of time, rather we growing up into the fullness of the Godhead bodily.
Although we may not see results now, it’s the time of the Body of Christ GROWING UP and moving from babes to mature sons of God and the spotless Bride of Christ!
The cycle is being completed, the maturing and beginning to operate in nothing less than our full inheritance.
Jim Mellard
As I was seeking the Lord for 2014 the Lord brought Amos 3:7 to mind,
which says that: He will do nothing unless he tells his prophets…
Here is what He showed me.
When I looked at 2014, one of the meanings of the number 20 is, expectance.
14 can be defined as deliverance.
So we put them together and we get:
Expect Deliverance in 2014
The year 2014 will be a year of rebellion in the world.
It will also be a time of the love and mercy of God being shown.
I like to draw the analogy that the Lord gave me last year.
”A time of the sun (Son) shinning on one side and rain on the other.”
This will cause many to begin to seek answers.
2014 is going to be a pivotal year; the Lord has laid the foundation based on Ephesians 2:20,
(And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets,
Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;)
and now the beginning:
The Hidden Ones
The hidden ones, the army of older stars (wisdom as well as age) that I
have trained, polished and reserved for such a time as this. I have poured My Word into them –I have tested and tried them – I have trained them for such a time as this. They have a Word level that cannot be diluted or stolen, for they shall usher in the year. Isaiah 55:11
(MY WORD SHALL NOT RETURN VOID)
They shall be sent as gifts to My Churches.
And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers;
(Ephesians 4:11)
They shall come forth and their anointing will take the mountains, they
shall run and not be weary (Isaiah 40:31)
I shall give them an anointing to live longer and
they will carry an Apostolic Prophetic Teaching Anointing,
which will produce a new Church and Proton Churches.
A WORD YEAR
This shall be a year of My Word Nehemiah 8:8,
(So they read in the book in the law of God distinctly,
and gave the sense, and caused them to understand the reading)
and ask God to create an understanding of your word in us.
This shall be a Word year
I am releasing an anointing that will cause those that have a desire for My Word to want more. An anointing that will bring understanding and new revelation in My Church: cause my Church to operate in John 14:12 (AMP), which states that you shall do greater works. Verse: 12 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.
Jeremiah 29:13 we are told to seek, inquire and then require and we
are told that no longer will His words be delayed. This is that …We
are entering the Glory time of the Lord.
Ezekiel 12:28 Therefore say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; There
shall none of my words be prolonged any more, but the word which I have
spoken shall be done, saith the Lord GOD.
2014 will be a year of deeper revelation of the Word. Proverbs 25:2
Says, it is the glory of God to conceal a thing but the glory of kings
to seek it out.
THE PRODIGALS
This season the Word shall go forth to the prodigals and as you begin
to speak and confess and require of My Word it shall not return void.
Now add to your confession Joel 2:25 He will return to you what the
enemy has stolen.
Also the Lord is raising up an army that will begin
to call forth the impossible, for the Lord said I am a God of the
impossible, in Job 22:30 —-He will deliver the one (for whom you
intercede) who is not innocent, yes, he will be delivered through the
cleanness of your hands.
A YEAR OF CREATIVE MIRACLES
This shall be a year of Creative Miracles. He called my attention to
1 Corinthians 12:28 And God hath set some in the church, first apostles,
secondarily prophets, thirdly teachers, after that miracles, then gifts
of healings, helps, governments, diversities of tongues.
I have released first Apostles, Prophets and Teachers and now you shall
call forth the miracles.
2014 is the beginning of the season of Miracles
I hear the Spirit of the Lord saying: Tell my people that I have a
warehouse full of spare parts. New Kidneys, livers, arms, legs, knees,
lungs and complete circulatory systems. Inquire, seek, and then
require of Me saith the Lord. Amos 5:4 (AMP) For thus says the Lord to
the house of Israel: Seek Me [inquire for and of Me and require Me as
you require food] and you shall live!
WORSHIP
As I was seeking the Lord for this, He brought to my mind Ecclesiastes
12:13 (AMP) All has been heard; the end of the matter is: Fear God
[revere and worship Him, knowing that He is] and keep His
commandments, for this is the whole of man [the full, original purpose
of his creation, the object of God’s providence, the root of character,
the foundation of all happiness, the adjustment to all inharmonious
circumstances and conditions under the sun] and the whole [duty] for
every man.
2014 will be a year of My manifested present in My Church for it shall
be ushered in by the worship. The worship shall increase, new sounds, a
new wind will cause my glory to manifest my presence in many churches.
A sign shall be unto you…when the men begin to dance
Ministry of Angels
This year will bring an increase of the ministry of the Angels. As you
begin to worship you will see the Angels join you. This is a season
that as you apply My Word. Psalms 103:20 The Angels act on My Word you
speak my word it will not return void, there will no longer be a delay.
Hebrews 1:14
Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation?
and 2:1
Since all this is true, we ought to pay much closer attention than ever to the truths that we have heard, lest in any way we drift past [them] and slip away.
You will begin to use a weapon that is new to
many of you.
The World
2014 shall be a year of Increase in natural phenomenal events. This year you shall see the beginning of the fulfillment of many Scriptures. If you can find a scripture for the need. Confess make war with it for this is a year of the Word. This shall be a year of restoration of what the enemy has stolen!
There will be supernatural giving and receiving, Yes !!
There shall be economic disasters as well. Many natural disasters, earthquakes in parts of the world that were not expected, rivers will flood and there shall be great power outages.
A spirit of terrorism and fear has been released especially in America.
Philippians 4:19 (AMP) And my God will liberally supply ([a]fill to the full) your every need according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus.
Colossians 1:27 (AMP) To whom God was pleased to make known how great for the Gentiles are the riches of the glory of this mystery, which is Christ within and among you, the Hope of [realizing the] glory. Our riches in Jesus. What are your riches in Him?
Psalm 55:22 (AMP) Cast your burden on the Lord [releasing the weight of it] and He will sustain you; He will never allow the [consistently] righteous to be moved (made to slip, fall, or fail).
2014 will be to the world a time of fear, a time of discouragement and unrest but for My people it shall be a time of My Glory.
Yes it shall be a time of my presence in your worship services. I have designated certain states as places of My glory but My glory will be limited only to your faith. Many shall come from afar to get answers and relief. For I shall cause the Sun to shine on My people, when it rains on others
As I write this I heard the Spirit of the Lord say: “Fear Not.” In 2 Chronicles 20:15b (AMP) it says: “ 15b The Lord says this to you: Be not afraid or dismayed at this great multitude; for the battle is not yours, but God’s.
This shall be the beginning of the greatest revival (to revive) my people that the world has ever known. It has been prophesied that Alabama shall be one of the places that shall see the mighty glory of the Word along with Arizona and Alaska.
As Satan has released a spirit of fear in the world the Lord took me to Isaiah 59:19 So [as the result of the Messiah’s intervention] they shall [reverently] fear the name of the Lord from the west, and His glory from the rising of the sun.
When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the Lord will lift up a standard against him and put him to flight [for He will come like a rushing stream which the breath of the Lord drives].
This is that time…
Bonnie Nelson
I hear 2014 is all about “You” and “Your” relationship with Jesus (Yahshua)
Seek Ye The Kingdom of God Matthew 6:33
But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.
But it is not just seeking the Kingdom, it is seeking God.
In the Hebrew number/alphabet system the letters in the name David total 14.
The Lord is calling us to be a David and come after His Heart. Make our relationship with Him, personal and I hear the song “Draw Me Close to You.”
Bringing us back into the Worship.
Listen to the wind, watch where it blows.
Shore up your relationship through the Holy Spirit.
Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double minded. James 4:8
and
But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.
John 14:26
The Holy Spirit will testify and lead you closer to Christ
But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me:
John 15:26
**************
Optical Illusions
There shall be optical illusions in the spirit of what you are seeing and hearing.
Having eyes, see ye not? and having ears, hear ye not? and do ye not remember?
Mark 8:18 KJV
For the enemy shall bring forth opportunities and events where you will look and not see and listen but not hear what is really being presented. Fine tune your relationship and your eyes and ears.
**************
Mouth of the Flatterer
A great time of deceptions through flattering and lies
Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, for many false prophets have gone out into the world.
I John 4:1 ESV
Those caught up in the snare of deception will be hard pressed to escape and will not see or sense what is happening to them.
“while evil people and impostors will go on from bad to worse, deceiving and being deceived”
I Tim 3:13
Put on the Word (Armor) Ephesians 6:11 to stand against the devil
Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil.
**************
Some will go too far and not be able to be snatched from the fire and be full of pride and arrogance and seek to take you with them on their journey. Beware!
Be Wise and Seek Wise Counsel
To the pure, all things are pure, but to the defiled and unbelieving, nothing is pure; but both their minds and their consciences are defiled. They profess to know God, but they deny him by their works. They are detestable, disobedient, unfit for any good work
Titus 1:15-16
For it is written
Now the Spirit expressly says that in later times some will depart from the faith by devoting themselves to deceitful spirits and teachings of demons,
I Tim 4:1
**************
I also felt a chill, a warning, as I heard,
If you are ashamed of me, I will be ashamed of you to my Father.
Luke 9:26
For whoever is ashamed of me and of my words, of him will the Son of Man be ashamed when he comes in his glory and the glory of the Father and of the holy angels.
and
For whoever is ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation, of him will the Son of Man also be ashamed when he comes in the glory of his Father
with the holy angels.”
Mark 8:38
**************
This year will cause you to have to witness who is your God.
And the Lord said, “Ask for Courage and Strength.”
This year you will need to cast away doubt and the battles in your mind.
“But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea that is driven and tossed by the wind.”
James 1:6
**************
The Lord will strengthen those who keep His Word close in their heart and speak it forth. You will run and not faint, Isaiah 40:31, but the Lord is calling us to get into shape, in the spirit and in the natural.
We will need to get our bodies in shape to go along with our spirit man.
There will be a disciplining of our eating and drinking.
**************
How much will you settle for…
Are you in a place of comfort in your relationship with the Lord?
For deception shall be coming forth on a greater level. You will need more of the Lord to be able to see and come against the enemy. He will come after what is already yours, while you are worrying and thinking about other things you want and are striving to attain.
The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy.
I came that they may have life and have it abundantly.
John 10:10
**************
The enemy of our souls knows us very well and he will use that which is the most important to you as bait. He will deceive you and what you think you are getting you will not. He will steal more than he will allow you to have.
You are of your father the devil, and your will is to do your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks out of his own character, for he is a liar and the father of lies.
John 8:44
**************
Technology Will Soar
**************
Health Issues Will Be Confusing.
Look to the Holy Spirit to reveal new, but old wonders of healing.
**************
Signs, Wonders and Miracles will come forth,
but there shall be wars fought to see them come.
Be wise and be informed and seek wisdom.
Check out John Hagee’s book, “The Four Blood Moons.”
There is a change coming in 2014 and 2015 and there shall be signs in the skies.
Jesus said in Matthew 24:29-30.
“Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light. And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.”
2014 Signs in the Sky
Acts 2:14-21
King James Version (KJV)
14 But Peter, standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice, and said unto them, Ye men of Judaea, and all ye that dwell at Jerusalem, be this known unto you, and hearken to my words:
15 For these are not drunken, as ye suppose, seeing it is but the third hour of the day.
16 But this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel;
17 And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams:
18 And on my servants and on my handmaidens I will pour out in those days of my Spirit; and they shall prophesy:
19 And I will shew wonders in heaven above, and signs in the earth beneath; blood, and fire, and vapour of smoke:
20 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and notable day of the Lord come:
21 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved.
**************
This is the year to link up or plug in to a church or group.
This is not a time to be alone or isolated.
Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.
Hebrews 10:25
**************
This is the year for you to hear the voice of God for yourself.
The first call on our lives is our relationship with God.
We are not in a governmental or pyramid system. We are in the family of God. Do not settle for less than a one on one personal relationship with God
Ephesians 2:20 And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;
Paul preached: Apostles/prophets are place “under” people, positioned near the bottom to be able to lift them up by training, equipping and maturing them to go from glory to glory. Prophets dig up, rout out and stir up to mature the saints, and equip Warriors in the Army of God, we do not rear up babies. Our message is of God’s Power and not trust and dependence on the power of a prophet or an apostle.
(The first shall be last and the last shall be first.)
The Prophets and Apostles will move into their proper place
and roles in the House of God.
The prophets and apostles are not the mediator between man and God.
For there is one God and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus.
I Tim 2:5
Paul preached it was not about him and his great wisdom and relationship with Christ but,
I Cor 2:4-5 (NASB) And my message and my preaching were not in persuasive words of wisdom, but in demonstration of the spirit and of power. So that “your faith” would NOT rest on the wisdom of men, but on the power of God
For the kingdom of God does not consist in words, but in power. I Cor 4:20
**************
This is the Year to choose whom you will serve.
And if it seem evil unto you to serve the Lord, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house,
we will serve the Lord.
Joshua 24:15
For whomever is not with me is against me and I shall see and know him.
Matthew 12:30 and Luke 11:23
There is no neutral position. With every word and deed, each one of us shall serve either, The God of Heaven or the god of hell.
And the day comes where we shall be held accountable for our choice.

More Thinking and Less Feeling
Old ways that have been experienced that have brought forth Old ways of thinking God is going to deal with. Letting go of what was, so you can get to what is and will be. The Lord will bring Holy Spirit Dynamite to break loose those things you have held onto to set His People Free. They shall be transformed in their thinking through His Word and His Spirit and be released from their feelings.
For we know that the god of this world has blinded many of the children of God and they have lost their way liken to being in a dark room with no light.
But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost:
In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.
2 Cor 4:3-4
God is getting ready to open our eyes to see.
He will be bringing forth supernatural vision to those who are hungry for more of Him. He will bring forth a new hunger in those who are ready, willing and eager to know Him. It is about Him and you.
He will stir the hunger in our deepest parts to where nothing will satisfy us anymore but Him.
His Presence in us will become our hearts cry, night and day
and we shall settle for nothing less than
ALL of Him!
