Word of the Lord for May 2013 by Prophet Phyllis Ford

April 26, 2013 This is a time when the significant things in this hour all point us in the direction to the promises from God and lead us toward our covenant relationship with Him. During times of prayer, the Lord has continued to show me the importance of passing over the river Jordan (from a spiritual perspective), along with the significance of oil, bread, wine, and the power of prayer. There is a refining process that we have been experiencing and because of it we have become more and more aware of an important transition from where we have aspired to be, to how to obtain victory in those areas now at this time. The Lord is revealing to His people that the way we approach these things and how we walk in the new realization concerning what is going around us includes the ability to conquer and overcome the obstacles that have tried to hinder us in times past. This is where the significance of remembering His covenant and carrying a strong spiritual mindset will become essential. Running after the things of God, allowing him to order our steps, and depending on His voice with a readiness to consecrate our lives, in a manner fit to receive what is needed to move on in victory and the light of His glory. (The following is a compilation of His words and visions that were revealed to prepare us in this season.)  “Time is of the essence. You have entered into a season of passing over. You must set out from the place of where you are now to where you will go-after my presence. (This is a type of passing over from the most difficult period of your life to coming into of new place spiritually.) Understand that spiritually, crossing this Jordon represents to you everything that has challenged you concerning the fulfilling of your destiny and that which has tried to keep you from being in the place spiritually where you need to be. You must humble yourself and allow your spirit, heart, and mind to embrace the understanding that you have not gone this way before. With my direction, will you be able to deal with the situations that you will face because I will be with you guiding you through as well as ordering your steps, to walk out a new chapter in your life.” Vision: I saw a large shore with many people and most of them were in position to go over a large body of water. I saw those who carried “the ark of the covenant” before them. But there were others on the shore waiting with expressions of readiness even great expectation and there were others who looked as if they were trying to make a decision whether to cross or not. Few stood observing without making any preparations to cross. Joshua 3:1-7 Amplified Version, “Joshua rose early in the morning and they removed from Shittim and came to Jordan, he and all the children of Israelites, and lodged there before they passed over. After three days the officers went through the camp.  Commanding the people, when you see the ark of the covenant of the Lord your God being borne by the Levitical priests, set out from where you are and follow it. Yet a space must be kept between you and it, about 2,000 cubits by measure; come not near it, that you may [be able to see the ark and] know the way you must go, for you have not passed this way before. And Joshua said to the people, Sanctify yourselves [that is, separate yourselves for a special holy purpose], for tomorrow the Lord will do wonders among you. Joshua said to the priests, Take up the Ark of the Covenant and pass over before the people. And they took it up and went on before the people. The Lord said to Joshua, This day I will begin to magnify you in the sight of of all Israel, so they may know that I was with Moses, so I will be with you.” “This will mark a time of remembrance. A time when you will look back to this year as a season where I brought you out and set you into a new spiritual mindset.  As you become more and more aware that it is important to know that the accomplishing of that plan will come forth through the process that I have ordained for you, even though you may have a plan with a certain direction in mind. Even so that which you have envisioned must line up with the spiritual fulfillment of that walk, along with carrying the ground work that I have ordained for your life. The two will agree. As you prepare to go over this spiritual river Jordan you must understand that a cleansing must take place. Consecrate yourself before me, separate yourself, and set yourself apart from the fleshy desires that have distracted you and veered you off course. Cast off the works of darkness that have tried to take over your soul. Guard yourself from holding on to negative mindsets and characteristics that will only lead you down a pathway that will delay you from achieving that which you desire to accomplish in this hour." “Passing over that Jordan says that you are ready to change and become separate from the world’s system, way, and approach of getting to where you want to be without compromising your calling and position in the kingdom. So as you pass over this challenge you will experience a lifting of the burden of doing things in your own strength and you will receive new strategies as new opportunities present themselves because you have arrived to the place of my promise. You are operating in an accelerated time that I will direct you into.  You will be able to relinquish so many things that have hindered and delayed you from achieving important goals. Realize that through this, you will also cast away the unnecessary things that have tried to hinder your faith. Understand that the cleansing is essential to reaching where you need to be. Refuse to let the stubbornness of sin and pride keep you from moving up into the place that I have prepared for you.” Romans 13:14 (Amplified) “But clothe yourself with the Lord Jesus Christ (the Messiah) and make no provision for (indulging) the flesh [put a stop to thinking about the evil cravings of your physical nature] to (gratify it’s) desires (lust).” TO MY LEADERSHIP: “This is the time where you must wear the humility of a servant and the garments of the priesthood to carry the ark of my presence so that people may go after it. Allow this to be a time where pride and flesh will no longer dictate to you who you are, nor whom you will become. Lead by example so that those that follow will be the warriors that will take the people into a place of victory in battle and breakthrough in times to come.    Vision: I saw a vision of a white cup filled to the top with oil, and then all of sudden it was turned to it’s side and the oil flowed out and seemed to never stop. (There was more oil coming out than that which seem to be in the cup (an overflow).) Then when it was empty it turned back into it’s upright position and was full again. I knew there was a mighty release more than the cup could hold. I knew this came from the divine supply of the Lord. A couple of days later I saw a huge hand coming out of the heavens and out of its palm was pouring oil. “I am pouring upon my people the oil of my covenant that was established before time. You will begin to see it’s effect in the days to come. As I pour out the oil upon you, it will be evident that I will be with you to help you, direct you, and show you things as you cry out from your place in prayer. The oil symbolizes access into places you could have never walk into as well as the ability to come out of situations that you otherwise you would not be able to come out. It is the oil of favor and joy giving you the grace to come out of troubled areas into a place of breakthrough. Testimonies and miracles will begin to come forth; so many wondrous things will begin to happen. Know that I am moving upon this time for all to see so that a greater measure of My glory will come forth. Revival fires will burn.  You will feel the power of my love coming forth upon my people and joy will come in the midst of them.  A peace will be released that will bring a fire and a light upon my people that will flow like liquid fire. It is my portion given freely to you to believe again, to hope again, and to reach up and reach out to touch others’ lives in ways that have not been in this measure.” “This release will be the beginning of great things that I have prepared for my people. Cry out in the Holy place of prayer. Press in and don’t let up. Press in my people, don’t give in, because as the prayers are being released out of my house, between the porch and the altar, as they pour out they will touch and cover areas that could not be covered in any other way. As you pour out prayer you are holding back greater loss and greater devastation. Many troubling things are about to surface even more so towards the last six months of this year. There will be more terrorism even war plans will be attempted but also there will arise a greater vigilance and a greater cry will come out of the sanctuary.  It will become intense as the intercessors and watchmen cry. For they will arise with great strength and unity, and the oil will increase. Prayer is like the oil and the oil is like prayer. As it pours forth and pours out, it will heal, cover, protect, and break yokes. It will pour out in a great measure. For even the wine and the bread as instruments of communion are symbols of my love and power. In this season they represent my covenant to you which holds precious promises that will never be forgotten, but fulfilled in the time to come.” Psalm 45: 7 (Aramaic Translation): “You have loved righteousness, you have hated evil, because of this, oh, God, your God has anointed with you the oil of a joy greater than that of your companions."   “For the vision to watch and pray is coming forth now in a greater measure and it will take on a louder voice that will not be silenced says the Lord. The power of prayer is being activated across the land and it shall increase. Much worse would have come upon this land if it had not been for prayer. The warfare against this nation has increased so continue to press into prayer. Pray with power and pray without ceasing. Prayer is the key in this hour. And it has been passed down from generations to generations. It will never lose its strength. Let the prayer pour like the oil. Let it pour out in your homes, at the gates, in the secret place, in the glory, and in the worship.  As the prayers come forth so will my oil and the flow of miracles will come. Salvation will increase, deliverance will come forth, and many souls will be won. Cry out for Holiness over this land before it is too late.”     Psalm 105:8 “He has remembered His covenant forever the word that He has commanded to a thousand generations. “Open up your heart so that you may receive my grace and my glory. Open up your spirit so that you may know what is about to unfold. Open up your heart so that may understand why this season is so important as you transition across troubled waters to solid ground. So rise up and take your place. For I will lead you by my very hand and I will surround you with a hedge of protection. As you follow me the favor that I will place upon you will guide you through. Know that I love you with a love that’s everlasting. I desire that you walk in victory in ways never seen before. All that you have been searching for is right before my presence. This is not an hour to wait and see, nor to wait to find out how things will fare, but it is a time to overcome and a time to conquer obstacles.  It is the hour to hear and not forebear. Know that you are preparing to be the sons of the greatest army in this hour. For the work of the Kingdom will come forth mightily. You are a part of this destiny says the Lord and it will come to pass. It is my word and my promise to you in this season.”   Prophetic Intercession: please continue the pray our list from the Word of the Lord for February 2013.

Word of the Lord for April 2013 by Prophet Phyllis Ford

March 30, 2013 “It is the time of awakening where you will begin to see a rebirthing, renewal, replenishing, reconstruction, restoration, restitution, and rebuilding. This is necessary to repair that which has been broken and to further reestablish that which must be done in this season. Know I am with you ready to help you to progress where you need to be in order to be prepared for the time that you are in. Right now, there is a major repositioning taking place. You will see major shifts/changes in locations, opportunities for different types of occupation and even new residential changes within the place where some reside, will open up now. Some will find themselves moved and repositioned where you will have a greater impact, and repositioned into more productive areas in order to accomplish what needs to be done in your life and destiny. Embrace this change in environment and how you deal with things from a different perspective, this is the time necessary for change and it will serve as a catalyst for the building up of momentum to grow and mature in this hour. So do not be surprised by what I will show you that has run its’ course. Now you will know without a shadow of a doubt that it is time to move on.” “This is because some things have hindered your progress and I am removing those things that have proven to be a snare. You will receive insight into ways that I have presented before you so that you may go forth and move along to a better course. With the old obstacles removed, and your vision enhanced, you will see what I am doing in your life and everything will become clearer than before. You will see fresh new entry ways with new insights because the season of weariness and struggle will give way to a new strength, and a discipline to help you obtain your goals. That which was established long ago, now will be reachable, obtainable, empowering and challenging to you now. For behold I am doing a new thing in the earth and it is through my people that it will come to pass and all shall know what I am doing. I shall release my portion unto my people whom I have ordained so that others will not go without or have lack because of the judgment that is about to fall upon the wicked. This new thing I am doing in the earth now consists of YOU becoming changed and transformed despite everything that has tried to hold you back. But understand you must now begin to walk in a deeper level in the things of the kingdom and my righteousness.” Colossians 3:1-10 (AMP) If then you have been raised with Christ [to a new life, thus sharing His resurrection from the dead], aim at and seek the [rich, eternal treasures] that are above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. And set your minds and keep them set on what is above (the higher things), not on the things that are on the earth. For [as far as this world is concerned], you have died, and your [new, real] life is hidden with Christ in God. When Christ, Who is our life, appears, then you also will appear with Him in [the splendor of His] glory. So kill (deaden, [a]deprive of power) the evil desire lurking in your members [those animal impulses and all that is earthly in you that is employed in sin]: sexual vice, impurity, sensual appetites, unholy desires, and all greed and covetousness, for that is idolatry (the deifying of self and other created things instead of God). It is on account of these [very sins] that the [holy] anger of God is ever coming upon the sons of disobedience (those who are obstinately opposed to the divine will), Among whom you also once walked, when you were living in and addicted to [such practices]. But now put away and rid yourselves [completely] of all these things: anger, rage, bad feeling toward others, curses and slander, and foulmouthed abuse and shameful utterances from your lips! Do not lie to one another, for you have stripped off the old (unregenerate) self with its evil practices, And have clothed yourselves with the new [spiritual self], which is [ever in the process of being] renewed and remolded into [fuller and more perfect [b]knowledge upon] knowledge after the image (the likeness) of Him Who created it. “I am pulling back the veil* where all things will be clear before those who seek to know what it is like to behold my glory in the place of prayer, in the place of worship, and in crying out to me on behalf of others----So come, enter in and carry the vision and understanding of the fact that because I have paid the price for your redemption, you have the power to overcome. *(Hebrews 4:4, Hebrews 6:19, Hebrews 10:20) Enter into this understanding, this place of peace with me. For in this time I will reveal you to yourself so that you may see your flaws and your strengths and the very things that you must look to me for and as it is revealed to you—you will also see the choices and the emotions that hindered you from walking in what I have called you to do. So look to me for I am the author and the finisher of your faith. I will stir-up/activate in you that which you already possess so that you may become who you really are and accomplish that which I have created you for.” “I am revealing these things to you now that have been set in place and how you, my army, how you, my sons will begin to walk in dominion to overcome and the works of the enemy will be destroyed and rendered ineffective, says the Lord. I shall with my ruling scepter smite the wicked who has laid their plans in continuing to set a course of evil upon this land to destroy it. They will see that the very plans set to destroy my people will be the very ones that will be turned upon them. I am overturning the tables of the money changers of the Babylonian system who polluted my house. And it will be clear why this has come upon them. Many will know who they are and know the evil purposes that they were trying to unleash upon the land.” “So run, run with the vision and the faith I have given you and that I have written upon the tablets of your heart by my word. I am placing in your hands the things that are necessary to build the kingdom in this hour. Run with the endurance of one who is seeking to win and is running with purpose marked with patience (and integrity). Allow the life and the words of my gospel to take root in your heart so you may fully understand what is before you. It will help you better prepare for the approaching events that will occur because the time has come. Do not let fear engulf you, intimidate you, or make you feel as if you cannot overcome (because within it is the weakness of man). Only believe upon that which represents my hand and my heart and I will reveal to you the greater measure that is already within you. (1 John 4:4) (It is the ability to endure to the very end) My grace is sufficient for you and it will help you to endure in this hour. So shake off weariness because I am causing you to win. I have caused you to stand and you will walk in that ability to endure so that you may overcome all that you will be challenged within your heart. Lay hold to my word and your conviction of faith, it will provide for you much strength.” Hebrews 12:1 “Therefore seeing we also are surrounded with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which does so easily ensnare us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us.” 1 Corinthians 9:24-27 “Know ye not that which run in a race run all, but one receives the prize? So run, that ye may obtain. And every man that strives for the mastery is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible. I therefore so run, not as uncertainly; so fight I, not as one that beats the air: But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway.” “Many are having difficulty running because their walk has been hindered by their own involvement in so many things that have nothing to do with their destinies. Their feet have become covered with grit as a result of their entanglements and are running swiftly to sin, and perverse lifestyles. Running this race speaks of what you believe and how you lived your life before me. Pray for others who have become wearied in their running and help them to walk in the disciplines necessary to keep up and stay on course. For those who are already running---I am encouraging them to pick up the pace. My words are being spoken to encourage them so that they don’t become tired and let frustrations set in and hinder their progress and growth. It is essential to follow me, says the Lord along your pathway to reach your destiny. As you run you will receive a spiritual adrenaline and (my grace) to have access into the deeper things that I am preparing for you.” This is an excerpt in the Word of the Lord for 2013 Part 2 –when I received a visitation concerning 4 people who represented the seasons of the year, it is truly a confirmation of what the Lord is saying now. (This word was released 1-3-2013) Spring--He was a man in his late twenties. I saw him running and he was running to win. He reached a point where he began to pick up pace from where he originally started. It didn’t seem difficult for him, it was as if he was taking it all in stride. I told him that all of these things represented him running the race—along his own life’s course and the significance in him doing that. (Hebrews 12: 1-3) Things are now on a faster track—this was the time to change lanes and be urgent about it. Acceleration is already here. Time is of the essence in accomplishing things, don’t put them aside, do them now. Don’t be distracted by watching others in their own lanes, but be a help but watch distractions. The new confidence which is of the Lord will be upon you now as if the Lord is standing by your side saying, “Come on you can do it.” Continue to run the race with patience. Great change is coming and great change is taking place. Keep the lord’s promises before you. Also remember that the end of this race is closer than you think. Run will be very significant in his life this year. Run, make haste don’t delay. Prophetic Intercession: “Intercessors, Watchmen: I am saying to you in this hour, cry out for souls!! The salvation of men hold a major key to turning the fate of your nations!!! There are many lives that are hanging in the balances now, bring them in, bring them in, cry out, pray and bring them in. Pray for all who will be obedient to do the work of the evangelist.” There are a few things that the Lord spoke to me as I was in prayer and intercession before him. There is a type of prophetic chatter that appears to sound like almost like noise and confusion. There are several reasons for that, there are false prophets that have released words based on fear and not founded upon the Father’s Heart. Then there are also words that are being released dealing with only one aspect of what the Lord is saying and others’ words that speak of several aspects of what is to come. It takes keen discernment and understanding of my word. I saw a vision of people literally running from one place to another and from one word to another for a prophetic word. This is what the Lord spoke to me concerning it: (I received this from the Lord and posted it on March 19th) “Settle yourselves so that you don't become confused by the noise of heavy prophetic chatter that is going on in this hour. Don't let outside forces press you to make rash decisions or be fearful. Pray, ask for the discernment because you need to make important choices. Come into my presence, where you may rest before me, for in that peace I will comfort you and you will hear the instructions concerning your assignments and even how to set them in place.” The Lord is corporately and individually speaking to His people but in order to get our own specific instructions, we must come into his presence and listen/hear His words. Heighten areas of prayer: pray concerning the increase abuse of woman and children, sudden acts/threats of war, sudden earthquakes, landslides, and sinkholes. Please refer to our previous months—February and March (prophetic intercession guidelines) on areas that are under serious watch right now. Special Note to Everyone:   The Lord has placed upon my heart to send out a special free gift of oil to all who send an offering during this time. This anointing oil has been prayed over and the Lord has promised to do great things.

Word of the Lord for March and Beyond 2013 by Prophet Phyllis Ford

March 1, 2013   2 Chronicles 16:9 “The eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth to shew himself strong in behalf of those who heart is perfect towards him, herein thou hast done foolishly, therefore from henceforth thou shall have wars.”   “Prepare your heart for now is the time to come before me and abide in my presence. This is your time of visitation, and I am calling you near so that you may see and understand the path of light and glory that I have prepared for you to walk in. I am transitioning you from working out of your own ability to accomplish things. It has taken you this far but as you abide in me I will remove the struggle, frustration and  difficulty of doing things out of your own strength to receive my grace and divine awakening. So come away, my beloved so that you may begin to accomplish the things that I have promised you as I fulfill my covenant in this hour to my people. The guidance and direction that you need now, know it will be accessible to you. Keep the balance of walking out my word as it will enlighten your understanding and provide wisdom concerning the things which are the most important now.”  “There is much that is about to occur and your protection from the trouble, in the midst of trouble, even during the trouble will be found in your abiding in my presence. Right now you are literally standing along side of a threshold where the systems of this day are being judged. They are coming apart because of their own evil works and the stench  of iniquity has come up before me. The enemy feels as if he is in an advantageous position to continue to pollute my people but he is not, this will be a time that I am raising up a people even a remnant also to lead the way for those who have my heart desires and their eyes have opened and their understanding has enlarged that as they go forth now to become my kingdom people. These out of the cries of their heart and the fellowship of my love will wait in my presence. I will provide for you. This will set a future reversal of the outcome of the enemy’s plan that will squash and unveil the plots that were put in place to blind the eyes of the people and place them in further bondage.” Isaiah 40:31 “But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength they shall mount up with wings as eagles, they shall run and not be weary they shall walk and not faint.”               “Know that your strength and ability to rise above adversity comes from your waiting in my presence. I am your refuge and I hold the answers and the strategies of any problems that you are now facing.” The call to watch and pray “I have issued a call to watch and a call to prayer. Because within this call is the resolve to answer the questions you now seek, and it carries the wisdom to reverse and deal with the dilemmas of the day.”   “This is the month that I am calling forth my watchmen to stay on high alert as they pray around the gates of the regions that they have been assigned to watch over, and to alert my people as they prepare themselves for a major transformation as I will shine my light on the present systems that are about to be turned inside out with all its’ secret associations and lies that have been hidden but they are about to be revealed before men’s eyes. There is about to be a transitioning of my people out of the place where they are now, to the place of my presence and glory, a place where you will see my power and majesty coming forth in this hour. There will be a power shift as the changing of the guards occur and the place of the evil rankings of the enemy will not prevail. This marks the time for the hour of the watch.  It will be a time when I will move across this land with my mighty power as the works of the enemy will continue to be uncovered and high places will be destroyed and its’ altars of idolatry, by my own hand, says the Lord. At the same time in this hour of watching there will be a significant impartation that will come upon you to strengthen you, help you to overcome and you will see a mighty release of miracles that has yet to take place.” “For even as this is a time to watch, there is also a great significance in the cry of intercession in the land. I am calling forth my intercessors and their prayers will echo around the nations to cover and protect the land and salvation will rain down and to touch and cleanse those who have lost their way as I extend my hand to heal and deliver. So watch and wait, for I will have you to release a wall of intercession to shield the land and the people because of the enemy moving forward with a plan to set war and strife among the nations and to instill fear. But as my people wait, watch and pray there will be change and breakthrough.” Lamentations 2:19 “Arise, cry out in the night in the beginning of the watches pour out thine heart like water before the face of the Lord, lift up thy hands toward him for the life of thy children that faint for hunger in the top of every street.” Psalm 5:3 “My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O Lord in the morning will I direct my prayer unto thee.” “So pray, so watch, because this is a time when much will trouble the hearts of many people. Pray that they may see and understand the difference between that which is truth and that which are lies. Speak to them and encourage them that my promises have  never fallen to the ground for they are yea and amen. Even in the midst of despair I shall move upon their lives and bless the work of their hands make ways that seem impossible and they will know that truly I am leading them forth into deliverance and into the light of my glory. Joy unspeakable for even my glory shall be upon you, my strength will bring you through and my way—will direct you on what to do. You will know how to accomplish the task before you as you proceed in your life with me says the Lord.” Isaiah 60:1 “Arise shine for thy light has come and the glory of the Lord is risen upon you.” “This is why it is so important to declare the gospel to the nation in this time. This is a time to declare my word, to share the truth of the gospel so that the eyes of the people will be opened and they will see and know who they really are, and why this battle has ensued. Look out into the fields for they white unto harvest—minister my words to others which will bring peace unto their souls and nourish their spirit with my life.”   “This is a time to bare each others burden—for I am raising those among you those who will help others in their greatest time of need—spiritually and naturally so. I will prepare my people to aid and minister to those who are hurting with restoration, love and resources to supply those who are in need.” Prophetic Intercession Please continue to pray over our previous prayer points found at the end of February’s word. Each of those points are vitally important now. Especially our watch dates on the 3rd and 4th of March—I had a dream (in January 2013) where those were the dates and they were on Sunday and Monday.   Intercession Keys Several key points of intercession were shown to me as to why this is such a serious time of prayer. (these points are in addition to those previously discussed.) 1.      Pray around backlash and retaliation. Because we will see retaliation arise in the midst of seemingly calm situations.  But stay on watch and be prepared! When praying around retaliation the Lord spoke to me about the scripture that the “just shall live by faith.”(Romans 1:17, Hebrew 10:38, Galatians 3:11, Habakkuk 2:4) He said, “In intercession to earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints. Know that the just shall live by the faith of my word. You must stand upon my word and not waver, holding on to the truth that I have spoken to you before.” Pray around the faith of God’s people that they not waver but stand.  2.      There is going to be an increase of persecution coming against the church from various levels much of it will be used by the world systems to promote atheism. This is all a part of the plan –to justify a self-righteous system without the spirit of God that promotes a government doesn’t need God—this is an area for serious prayer. 3.      The spirit of religion is about to be challenged for men have taken God’s word and twisted within it false doctrine. Through anger and bitterness —the control and manipulation of religion has spun a web of deceit. In it you will hear evil words without little regard for the care of the least of these. The foundation of the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ is based on love. Our prayers can be focused on the people being able to properly discern what is of the Lord and what is of the world. We must pray that there be a clear distinction between good and evil. “Isaiah 5:20 Woe to those who call evil good and good evil that put darkness for light and light for darkness that put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter!” 4.      Watch the enemy in this hour with twisting truth, causing misunderstandings within the body, carrying a disrespect for spiritual authority—it is the spirit of Leviathan in operation to whom will try to destroy the family, marriage, congregation ministries uniting and even to separate people and nations it a spirit of prejudice. This enemy will lie, twist the truth, and even operate as an accuser of the brethren. Isaiah 27 is a key to overcome it and to pray for those who have come under its influence.  More information on leviathan 5.      More detailed information on leviathan      http://www.carpenterstouch.org/Leviathan.html 6.      Dealing with the spirit of leviathan: ·         The sword of the spirit which is the word of God ·         Worship and the new song (tehillah)), a new sound of worship ·         Watch Anger, murmuring, complaints against the Lord---spirit of pride 7.      This is a crucial time to pray for Israel—From Purim to Passover and from Passover to Pentecost. I have been troubled in my spirit concerning Israel. We need to pray around all meetings, decisions on the land agreements, all negotiations, leaders, pray against surprise attacks, promises given and promises restored.

Word of the Lord for February 2013 by Prophet Phyllis Ford

February 1, 2013 This is a time to understand the importance that words you speak carry power. Use your words to create and call forth life. Everything that the Lord is creating in us is being manifested now. As He is bringing forth life out of us, we must speak and bring forth that same life. Speak the word of God and begin to frame that which surrounds us. This is why we must be wise in forming our words now. What we speak now will be what we create. So our words must be carefully utilized—this is the time that the words we speak are stronger than before. God’s word can be a feeding station for our faith which provides depth in us, building strength to endure the course that we are on now. Speak into the atmosphere and declare your circumstances, calling those things that be not as though they were. (Romans 4:17) This will be a time remembered where even in the midst of serious circumstances you will make great strides, even in a time of fear and trouble. I believe this word carries much instruction and is a warning to us as well. Proverbs 18:21 "Life and death are in the power of the tongue and they that love shall eat the fruit thereof." Proverbs 13:3 "He who guards his lips guards his life, but he who speaks rashly will come to ruin." The Lord says to us: "This is a month that you will need to use caution concerning the use of the tongue. What you say and how you say it, is essential right now. Speak forth the words that I will provide for you to be restored and as you speak forth my word it will cause a release of healing. As you speak truth it will break down deception and provide divine protection. I am calling you into a place of restoration now to come out from a place of battle weariness to battle readiness, from complacency to strength and from darkness to Holiness. Speak forth the stand that you making in this hour and the commitment of your life to complete the work that I have set before you to establish you and provide you with a wisdom that will light the way of your path into a road that takes you to higher heights." "The direction and the way that you walk will position you with overcoming power because your faith will be established by what you walk out and say according to my word. These are keys that will be great assets to your life now, but you must walk uprightly before me in obedience and humility. I have called you to rule and reign even in dark circumstances. Even when you may feel that which faces you is stronger than you, continue to move according to the instructions that I speak to you and understand that your faith will help rebuild according to what is in reality going on instead of allowing your fear to dictate what you will do. Truly believe and be determined to walk according to my word. Remember I have called you and created you for this hour and I have created you for my glory. Calamities will come, even times of reckoning and dealing with that which is evil. Much has intensified in these last three years. There is about to be an uncovering of hidden enemies. Some of which will present themselves aggressively that you may have not been aware of. Do not allow fear to set in but know that now that they are in plain sight. In your time of watching and praying I will reveal the wisdom on how to come out victoriously. You will know what to do with the information you receive, says the Lord." "I am continuing to raise up and even establishing my army, for I will uphold my people, by my very hand. They shall rise up to declare their purpose because I have revealed to them what they are called to and for what assignments that they have been chosen. The gates of Hell shall not prevail against them, says the Lord of Host. This is the time of acquiring very important keys to conquer, prevail, and even fight against that which will try to intimidate you in the process of accomplishing some very important task that I have placed before you. Understand your position to be fruitful, to stand in my righteousness, and be committed unto Me, will place you in direct conflict with the enemy." 1 John 3:8 "He that commits sin is of the devil, for the devil sins from the beginning, For this purpose the Son of God was manifested that He might destroy the works of the devil." 1 John 4:4 "Ye are of God little children, and have overcome them, because greater is He that is in you, then He that is in the world." "I have created you to overcome. My life in you is greater than anything that could come against you. So fight the good fight of faith. Fight against those words that rise to oppose you in your circumstances through the mouths of others. Even begin to guard against the statements of unbelief that will even enter your own mind. Cast them down! Fight the fear that will try to come upon you of the unknown and through intimidation of the enemy. Fight those imaginations within your mind that will try to make you think that you can’t make it. Even fight the past generational strongholds that try to enter into your very choices through lust that will try to tempt you in this hour. Do not allow anything to cause you to become stagnant and refuse to grow spiritually as these temptations will try to ensnare you and arrest your development. Break through, break past these things for I have given you the authority and ability to do so. The course before you will be determined by making these life changing decisions. Fight these issues with My word as a sword that will cut down the lies that the enemy has spoken to you to feel challenged and battered and to try to use these as the reasons that you can’t change. Release situations and move on. Do not let the spirit of manipulation and control stifle and overtake you, leaving you feeling rejected. Know that these are stumbling blocks that hinder your progress to move forth and follow your destiny." "I say to you again, this is a good fight because I am with you and you shall overcome. This is a necessary fight because it deals with the enemies of your mind. But by doing this you will not allow the circumstances of the day to determine what you should do but you can walk in a freedom where you will be able to maneuver around difficulty. Yes, there will times that you will come into direct conflict with trouble even spiritual warfare, but there are some things that you will not become exempt from because you are living in this hour. Some of the greatest battles you will win during this time is to understand and know who you are and what you are to become. Do not fall back when you are challenged. Today, in this new day, it’s time for you to bring forth that which I have placed in you to fulfill my plan for your life and to follow the course that I have set. With each season you will face new challenges as well as new opportunities. It is important that you walk out each time within it’s own unique frame work. As you go forth you will find that the fulfilling of one purpose will prepare you for the next and so on. So understand this is a time of advancement and acceleration. I will bring forth finances to assist you and prepare you to acquire the important tools to build spiritually and naturally so." "Do not let arguments and personal confrontations keep you from focusing. Deal with any situations and issues at hand. Refusal to do so could have serious repercussions later. Do not be distracted in times of warning. Refuse to be engaged in conflict and confusion. If you are living your life according my word distractions will come. Be sober and vigilant in this hour, watch as well as pray. You are in a time that you will fulfill the assignments that I have given you and by doing so, you will also come against the spiritual wickedness of the day. The battle lines have already been drawn so you must engage in a good warfare with the very words that I have spoken, instructed and prophesied concerning your life’s purpose." "Don’t forget that prayer and fellowship is your greatest asset for your life. For in my presence strategies, answers, ideas, and witty inventions will come. I am also providing a way out of no way, a way of escape from the old patterns and paths that were leading you astray and keeping you in unnecessary cycles that could sabotage your future. For in the times of peaceful fellowship I will reveal great truths, open great revelations that will water your soul and sharpen you for the times ahead. As you cry out to Me---know that I will answer. As you to speak to Me, I will speak to you words of life and direction to lighten the path ahead of you that you may continue to go and grow." 2 Peter 1:3-4 "According as to God’s divine power has given unto us everything that pertains to life and godliness, though knowledge of him who hath called us into his glory and virtue. By which are given unto us great and precious promises that by these you may be partakers of the divine nature having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust." The Lord began to speak the words of the prayer of Jabez. 1 Chronicles 4:9-10 "Now Jabez was more honorable than his brothers, and his mother called his name Jabez, saying, 'Because I bore him in pain.' And Jabez called on the God of Israel saying, 'Oh, that You would bless me indeed, and enlarge my territory, that Your hand would be with me, and that You would keep me from evil, that I may not cause pain.' So God granted him what he requested" "As you pray My hand will be upon you. I will remove the words of the past that have been upon My people, and even upon this nation. There will come a great humbling and then My glory shall come upon you to cover you and keep you. Take these very words and cry out in the secret place – I shall hear you and deliver says the Lord." "There is a call of salvation that must be answered. Now look out from your circumstances My beloved, and look compassionately upon My ones who are ready, who are hungry and who are willing and who are weary –and give them drink – let them drink from the river of life that they will never thirst again, says the Lord. I am waiting for them, My heart cries out for them. Bring them in. Bring them in no matter the circumstance, bring them in. Whether they’re broken or wounded, I will heal. The lost, I will help them find their way and I will restore them from the experiences of the circumstances of life, and I will bind their wounds, as you carry them over your shoulders. Bring them in My Beloved." Prophetic Intercession: War plans are being made in this hour—please pray over last month’s list below during this time—things have intensified in the spiritual realm. (these words spoken to me in prayer.) I had a dream and the dates were given to me as a warning 3rd being a Sunday and the 4th being a Monday—so in February and March—we need to pray over these dates. Things that required immediate attention in the area of strong intercession: · There are several indications that civil unrest will hit this nation because of many variables – likes issues concerning gun reform, the anger and frustrations of men, the spirit of prejudice, and the feeling of desperation among those who don’t believe in God or trust His word. · There will be terrorist plans and operations being planned within and outside of our nation. Women will be used to implement their evil plots. (Had a dream about this – also pray around hospitals.) · There will be rising abuse against women and children, more than our nation has ever seen and trafficking will reach an all-time high. (Many missing women and children will noticeably increase and there will be a public outcry.) · The Lord revealed to me in prayer that the President would be in grave danger. · Cult activities will increase and they will obtain and operate out of church buildings but they will be new age organizations carrying mixed doctrines and promoting underlying satanic messages. (I had a dream concerning this and they had produced these books that were in small boxes, the size of paperback books, but these dark blue hard bond books with gold lettering.) · Major earthquakes, some will be out in the water (near the east coast and the west coast) and will cause serious tsunamis, heavy uncontrollable storms will rise up with hurricane winds that will rise up even out of season and cause heavy damage. · Regions in the US – Major areas of concern are still California, Florida (the southern regions of these two states.) New Madrid (and Midwest region with Chicago is still on the watch list.) – We will also be covering the coastal regions of the New England states. We have placed Washington State, Hawaii, southwest Texas, (also Veracruz) back on the watch list.

12 Things Revealed To Me In Prayer by Apostle Miles Ford

January 10, 2013 As I was praying during the night, a few days ago, the Lord shared these things with me. They are for 2013 and beyond, areas of prayer for the coming times that are ahead of us: China will start a war with the United States. They are convinced that in such a war they will win. North Korea will fire a missile toward or in the direction of Hawaii in a provoking act to the U. S. Lansing Michigan will be a hot spot and that area an area for much prayer. Economic woes and financial trouble will be seen from very late February into March. Before the end of the summer there will be civil unrest evident in the nation. U. S. dollar will be under great pressure in late February. January is a month for great prayer for the U. S. President. I saw a great door opened for God’s people in the U. S. at some point it will open and they will have to move through it without hesitation. Massive food programs will be put into action to restore order and alleviate the chaos and hunger of so many. Pray about terrorism in the skies. There is coming trouble in the Strait of Hormuz. I saw a revolt in government and a move to create a new and separate republic in the U. S. The following places the Lord gave me as places of importance and that would need prayer. Reno - Nevada, St Louis - Missouri, Durham - North Carolina, Seattle - Washington, and Singapore.

Word of the Lord for 2013 -- Part II by Prophet Phyllis Ford

January 4, 2013 (Please Read Part I Below First!) There are dreams that I have had in times pass that while seeing the dream, I was viewing myself with full understanding of what was going around me. During the month of December 2012, I was in a deep consecration before the Lord and I was just coming out of a fast. I had a dream/visitation it was very clear, detailed and the meaning behind it was also clear as if I was watching it as it occurred. I was in place where there were others who were my peers.  We were all given the same assignment from the Lord. Each prophet/prophetess there was a small group of people that went with them: which consist of one of the Lord’s observers and along with  our own personal assistant. I remember having several tablets and writing pens with some kind of carry bag. I was told to prophetically minister to these four people who I did not know. They were two women and two men. It was powerful that I remember as much as I did. Once I finished the assignment of the prophecies, I asked the Lord who were the people that I prophesied to and my assistant handed a folded paper with four peoples’ names. It read: 1. WINTER  2. SPRING  3. SUMMER 4. FALL I looked as if I was saying, what? The Lord said, “The people that I released the prophesies through you, represent the seasons in time.” In 2013, we would see a year of various seasons, divine timings, and that His purposes would be established in the lives of His people. This was the Lord’s prophetic utterance over the four people that were I and others were assigned to: 1.      Winter--She was an older lady, sitting in a dimly lighted room. She was a woman of grace and refinement her prosperity upon her was evident. The Lord showed me she had great wisdom beyond her years. She was a praying woman who cried out to Him on behalf of her and the nations. The Lord said, “That because repentance was her priority she would receive favor, and that this was her appointed time. For the significance of her cry had been heard in this hour, He was extending His hand of salvation and protection for his people. This was a time of stark realities, even coming trouble. But for her to stay in the protection of His presence, where she would find peace and clarity. This is a time of rebooting (resetting) because everything that has happened up to this point. Could go either way. Things can continue as they were and which could result even worse than they are, or it can become the starting point into new beginnings. I told her with His wisdom comes discernment, prudence and  discretion”.(Colossians4:5) There will be many open doors but she must be watchful, exercising much discretion concerning the things that she must do. Once she has received the things that the Lord has prepared for her. She must be very practical in all her dealings. I talk to her about setting strong regimes spiritually, and naturally. Begin to utilize your greatest strengths to make new strides in your life now. 2.      Spring--He was a man in his late twenties. I saw him running and he was running to win. He reached a point where he began to pick up pace from where he originally started. It didn’t seem difficult for him, it was as if he was taking it all in stride. I told him that all of these things represented him running the race—along his own life’s course and the significance in him doing that. (Hebrews 12: 1-3) Things are now on a faster track—this was the time to change lanes and be urgent about it. Acceleration is already here. Time is of the essence in accomplishing things, don’t put them aside, do them now.  Don’t be distracted by watching others in their own lanes, but be a help but watch distractions.  The new confidence which is of the Lord will be upon you now as if the Lord is standing by your side saying, “Come on you can do it.” Continue to run the race with patience. Great change is coming and great change is taking place. Keep the lord’s promises before you. Also remember that the end of this race is closer than you think. Run will be very significant in his life this year. Run, make haste don’t delay.  3.      Summer--A young lady with freckles and light auburn hair—She was in a white filled with light. Even the rays of the sun were beaming through the window. But then I realized that everything was in black & white. (no gray areas) This was time that the light and life of the Lord was shining down upon her. I drew a picture of her (I cannot draw) she had on her hand a monarch butterfly that was beautiful and was about to take flight. The Lord talked about a restoration of the creative things coming back and how the purity and beauty was being restored to her. It was the infusion of light that breathed new life, dedication and purpose to Lord that had refreshed her soul. That new life was now, ready to take flight. Maturity was being birthed and brought forth in this time. I told her to stay before the presence of the Lord, stay in the light, because it will give you direction. The light will also reveal the things that she will have to deal with. Be quick to be obey all the Lord will say that must be done now. Time is important—the time is now. I said to her; “The lord is positioning you. He is preparing you for your next place in Him. Allow your eyes to adjust to the light, move away from the darkness that may try to surround you from the influences of others. (Psalm 27:1, Psalm 36:9) 4.      Fall--The last one was a man with black curly hair. He had large eyes that turned down at the end and they seem sad. He wore servants/waiter’s clothes with a white shirt and a white towel on his right arm. He was in a beautifully expensive restaurant with golden colored table coverings. He had a tray carrying a wine glass with a clear liquid, a rose and gold plate. When I approached him a woman put a microphone in my face. I begin to talk to him about Israel. The Lord spoke to him about his heart of great humility, his love for Israel, and that his prayers had come up before the Lord. I said to him, “The Lord said I see you, and how you love Israel. These things that you have done in times past concerning your prayers, and alms are forever before me.” “You have served me with diligence and carried a love for me and for her (Israel). I want you to know I have never forgotten nor do I forget become the day is coming for your restoration and for her restoration. By this time we are all weeping. For no matter what happens I will a have a time for her, set by my own hand, as I have in your life. He begin to sway/stagger and the lady and I held him up. He wept almost uncontrollably. I heard music in the background after the word was released, perhaps it had been going on before that time and I hadn’t realized.( Isaiah 41:8-9) The handing of the names to me showing the people who were prophesied to, by the one who served as an assistant in the assignment was significant. The assistants represented those who faithfully served the Lord and His people. Yes we are sons, friends and servant-leaders of the Lord Most High. There will be some significant times in this year that the servants will be the bearers of God keys to unlock wisdom as they continue to humble themselves under the mighty hand of God.      I am asking all who have been benefited by receiving these words to sow a seed into this work of the Lord. Many have never sown—this might be your time now. Your gift no matter how small will help to carry forth this work of the Kingdom as we pray peace and divine protection over your families, your dwelling places and your life’s stability in Christ Jesus. Every seed sown is precious to us. Shalom!

Word of the Lord for 2013 -- Part I by Prophet Phyllis Ford

December 31, 2012  This is a compilation of words that the Lord has shared with me during the month of November-December 2012 concerning the year 2013. Because of the length of this word it would do well to print/copy/paste and read it slowly. The words that are in quotes are the Lord’s words. Pray and ask the Lord what He would have you do after reading this word. This Year’s Major Focus This is a season whose time has come. 2013 has to do with the timings of God and the purposes that God will have in its’ proper season. This year, timing is crucial especially in the season we are presently in (to carry out God’s purposes). “For the times which you are about to enter into are sure. Behold, I have ordered some things that cannot be changed, but also know that I have prepared a covering and a canopy that will protect you and keep you. So stretch beyond where you are into your purpose. In this year 2013 there shall be key times, appointed times, set times, times of watching, and times of waiting before my presence. I am about to move and a mighty release of my power shall be manifest before you. Even suddenlies shall sweep the nations, as cries of repentance come forth. I shall move out of My place to establish and execute My work before you. This is all because the time has come and it must come forth now, and it will not be delayed. For these things are in My timing.” Ecclesiastes 3:1, 10, 11, 16-19 * Psalm 75:2 (Amplified Version) When the proper time has come, [for executing my judgments,] I will judge uprightly, (says the Lord.) “For this is a time to strengthen the foundations and to remove the faulty ones. It is essential that you know what you believe, what are your values, what standards you will live by. These choices will determine what structures will remain and continue to stand. In this year, everything will be carefully examined; what must come down, will be removed and my truth will forever stand. Know that to everything there is a season and a time to every purpose under heaven. (Eccles. 3:1) Purpose this year is a major issue. Some things will occur because I have purposed these things to come forth now. No more time for this issue or this situation to linger. Some things shall be changed quickly and without notice. This is the time for my purposes to be established, this will become very evident in 2013.” “I am raising up amongst my people those who will restore truth in my house, order and integrity. I will raise those in this hour that will proclaim the truth of my word and call things into order. Men, who many will not know in terms of notoriety, but when they are heard, you will know them. Women, who will stand, pray and preach the truth. They both will uproot old religious systems that men set in place to cover up much iniquity. Ministries that will not uphold the truth of my word will be confronted and they will not flourish in this time, says the Lord.”   An Issachar Prophetic Company Movement “There will be a new fresh strong prophetic movement arising, they will be liken to an Issachar people: who will know the times and seasons, and who will know what my people ought to do. There will be a distinct difference in what is perceived now as the prophetic. For I will establish my people in this hour to do great exploits; not just say what will occur, but also go forth to demonstrate and execute my will. They will  uncover and destroy the works of the enemy in many places. They are humble warriors who will properly train and prepare those whose hearts are willing, and even to those who have lost their own way. They will bear the burdens of the people needs in their hearts and will emphasize salvation, healing and the deliverance as they go. They will not be afraid to walk in the power that I will release upon them for my glory, says the Lord.” “Those who have said in times past that they are helping the needs of others and have not done so will be exposed. Know I will not place my power into the hands of those who will not walk in the integrity of my word. You will know the difference in those who are truly doing the works and those who are only operating in lip service and for monetary gain. Yes, there will also be a great evil arising and some very evil things are set to occur in this time. But greater than that will be my army, for I will remove even uproot from one camp. While at the same time I will replenish/restore my camp. There will be a power-shift and I will raise those who will have not only the heart for the people but will sow into their lives hope and raise them up from a place of despair.  Many people have become discouraged and feel as if nothing will change or get better. I hold the key to bring my life and my light to lands, people, and atmospheres by my own hand, and I don’t need anyone to help me do it.” “This renewing that the world is about undergo is part of a necessary process, and it is not based on man’s ideas nor set by man’s rule. But it is based upon Kingdom rule and reign of which I am the King. I will raise up those who will have the King’s heart, the ones’ who have been purified in the fire of afflictions, humble and compassionate. When I taught my disciples to pray: Our Father who art in heaven ….I never spoke those things for my kingdom to suffer utter destruction. Nor would it have been declared, that the kingdoms of this world will become my kingdoms, if I didn’t have the final say. The important issue now is what will you do and who will you become and what purpose will you fulfill for these things to come to pass.”    Revelations 11: 15 And the seventh angel sounded; there were great voices in heaven, saying, the kingdoms of the world have become the kingdoms of our Lord and of His  Christ; and He shall reign for ever and ever.  Dealing with rebellion and the needed work of repentance “Some of the most simplest and basic things are very important. Many ask the question, “How has the world gotten to where it is now?” Look at the things that are going on around you and you will understand that the answers lie at the origin. It must be examined in light of what happened in the beginning. One of the things that occurred is when truth was revealed to man, he didn’t want to live by it, so he replaced it over time with what he wanted to understand as truth. So even in the simplest of matters that’s where the root of rebellion began. When that happened it altered major things as well. The value system that the world knew became corrupt as things became affected by rebellion and upon that rebellion their standards were established.” “It has greatly affected the church. So even though the simple basic principles have been compromised, many had no idea how far from the truth things have fallen. Some of the most basic truths were replaced with “allowables” that people took on to be true, when they were never truth at all. So as people began to follow those so-call standards and everyone then to begin to ask, “How did this come about?”.   There is a work of repentance that must occur going back to the core principles that were originally declared and established in my word”. “Father we come to you with the understanding that we have sinned before you and because of the rebellion that is in our own hearts. We have replaced the truth of your word with lies and deception that were acceptable to us. We ask now Lord that you uproot every ungodly mindset and thought process that we have decided to follow that was not yours. Uproot every lie so that we may be restored to your truth as it really is and not what we want it to be. We realize that as a result we have compromised not only the truth of your word but that these belief systems have affected our lives, standards, and values. Lord God, please forgive us. Lay the axe to the root of the tree of rebellion in our lives. and remove it, in Jesus Name Amen.”      “So as a result, people have made up their own understanding of core family values and principals of giving, and living. Now work ethics, relationships, social and economic values have been affected and in the minds of people they perceive their views as right and they will view others as wrong. Some people are not receiving true deliverance because things are smoothed over and not confronted spiritually. A real work of repentance must be done and must be prayed in this hour for REAL CHANGE to take place. Also truth is not based upon an individuals’ experience. Truth is based upon me and my word. You will find that there is much deception in people’s experiences that doesn’t line with the truth of my word. Remember he is the father of lies (John 8:44).” “There shall be an uprooting, a replanting and rebuilding process that will take place as a result of the faulty values that are lies. The work of repentance will begin to uproot and remove these strongholds in the spirit and that work will also begin to take hold in the natural. You will begin to see the effectiveness in prayer and intercession, in the preaching of the true gospel. The system of lies will be destroyed in those who desire to believe truth and change their hearts and minds back to their first love. The time has come for these things to happen now. The lies will be dispelled in those who will hear, but the others will fall prey to an even deeper realm of lies and deception. There will be a great divide; those who will hear and those who will not follow me or the truth. But you shall know the difference between the two.” Judges, Catastrophic Events And Acts Of Terrorism, “I will reestablish judges in the land, those who I will place my authority in as I deal with the corruption in the land and the people. Some regions will be destroyed and the places where the people live that refuse to change, under great shakings will not stand. I will call my people out from a place, and I will speak to them in dreams and visions and they will know that my timing is now. Do not be so attached to a place that you will not come out. In 2013 there will be devastation in the land through large earthquakes, landslides, major flooding from tsunamis and violent wind storms. 2013 will have several volcanic eruptions that will cause major damage. So when you see these things pray and find out my will before determining your own plans. When I say come out from among them and be separate, then come out.” “Because of some unbridled emotions, strife and decisions within leadership in nations and regions, there will be adverse reactions from the hand of others. Terrorism will occur from within and from the outside the United States.  There will be, at times, sudden striking without any warning. Terrorism in London, and within various European lands, will become hot spots as the acts of violence grow against those regions.  The seizing of planes by highjackings with terrorist will also occur and the government will have to set new measures in place to counter act this activity. Planes will have to be secured better and there will be many no fly zones announced.”  Our Patriarchs “In this season there will be some patriarchs in the faith that will come home to be in my presence and will leave their present existence with great legacies, and much insight. They leave many answers in their teachings behind them and many mantles will be released. It is important that my people begin to study seriously and become more acquainted with sound words of wisdom after my sons/daughters have gone from this earthy place. While they were living they should learned directly from them and even received impartations from their lives.” The Youth Invasion “There is going to be a powerful youth movement in this hour that will rise up and will not be contained by the status quo.  They will come from everywhere from the ages of 12 through 24, a great resurgence will arise with young people excited about the good news of the gospel.  It will become so strong until those who are older and battle weary will be revived by their zeal. This coupled with strong mentors will bring forth a fresh wind of new life and purpose in the land. It will sweep across nations and seas, carrying a strong wave of revival and hope will be restored to many through this move. Even the very young (under age 12) will be touched by my very hand to speak and to declare my word. They will worship and pray to uplift those who are tired, and inspire those who feel they no longer have anything to give. They will breathe upon the old bones of the body of Christ who will come together with the sounds of new life. For there is a great birthing coming forth on all levels and regions, says the Lord. They will arise as a new arm of my army of sons/daughters coming forth in this time.” The Spirit Of Humility And The Servant’s Heart “The Spirit of humility and carrying a servant’s heart will be the strength that will navigate you through carrying the anointing to overcome the rising evil in the land. Those who will humble themselves during this time, wearing the servant’s garments and having the servant’s heart, mind, and resolve will understand my instructions.  The faithful remnant, who have traveled the course to follow me, will be able to walk others through to safety and protection. Those who refuse to humble themselves, to take the servant’s towel and understand the life that is contained in sacrifice, love and laying down their lives for others, will miss an important requirement that will preserve them during times of trouble.  (1 John 3:16, Gal 2:20, John 12:24) This will yield important life giving lessons that will keep them from falling in the coming days and years ahead.” “Those who refuse to change and remain prideful will be without the things that have made them so comfortable in the past. They will be without their possessions and will  even lose those they manipulated to partake in their practices. The spirit of pride has operated so subtlety through some parts of the church and has been like a disease that entered in and caused the body to be weakened. It has become like a wolf devouring an innocent lamb until there is no life left within it.” “Many will observe the fate of the prideful and will become changed. They will experience a godly fear that will touch their lives by witnessing their fall. Study the servant’s heart, the servant’s way, and hear the servant’s instruction. It will set a direct and new course in the lives of my people now. This change must happen now for destruction and shaking will occur as a result of no change.” “Many have looked upon my word not as instruction and guidance to overcome but as a novel and not as the word of truth. Some even see it as truth but not anything they can ever hold up to or live by and as a result they will not have the keys to get where they will need to be. There will be those who will find my word as a road map to safety providing key direction so that they will know what to do and how to be established in this season.  It has been given to them to overcome the works of the enemy.” “Stepping over into 2013 many will automatically feel that something has occurred, as a major shift in their lives because a change in the atmosphere has taken place. Even upon crossing over you will see signs of things that have become different, because the time has come and the crossroads that are before you are very serious ones. This will be no longer be a time of halting between two opinions.” Ecclesiastes 12:13-14 (KJV) Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man. For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil. ·         Now is the time for us to decide to fulfill the calling upon our lives. ·         Now is the time to do the things necessary for us walk in the disciplines that we must carry to achieve the purpose the Lord is requiring of us. ·         Now is the time to become what we have been called to be and to humble ourselves under the very hand of God, to pray and study God’s word and to allow deliverance to remove the works of the flesh that has hindered the growth that we should have in this time, and to teach others what they must do as well. Famine “The lack of food and water will become troubling issues. There has been neglect and abuse in many areas, but food and water will no longer be in great abundance.  There are nations that are about to face a more serious time of famine. This is not just a shortage but it will result in hunger throughout the land. Some food will not be fit to eat, as other food will be contaminated with salmonella, E. coli as well as other strains and deadly viruses. This will affect great number of people, causing a large amount of deaths as well.  It is important to stock up and store up, for there will come a time where food will almost become as valuable as money. For we are now in the beginning of a three year cycle of famine and several scientist will try to develop a food alternative but the problem and need will become worse before it gets better. Pray diligently about all these things.” Prophetic intercession: Things that required immediate attention in the area of strong intercession: There are several indications that civil unrest will hit this nation because of many variables—like issues concerning gun reform, the anger and frustrations of men, the spirit of prejudice, and the feeling of desperation among those who don’t believe in God or trust in his word. There will be terrorist plans and operations being planned within and outside of our nation. Women will be used to implement their evil plots. (Had a dream about this—also pray around hospitals).   There will be rising abuse against women and children, more than our nation has ever seen and trafficking will reach an all-time high. (Many missing women and children will noticeably increase and there will be a public outcry). The Lord revealed to me in prayer that the President would be in grave danger. Cult activities will increase and they will obtain and operate out of church buildings but they will be new age organizations carrying mixed doctrines and promoting underlying satanic messages. (I had a dream concerning this and they had produced these books that were in small boxes (the size of a paperback book) but these dark blue hard bond books with gold lettering). Major earthquakes, some will be out in the water (near the east coast and the west coast) and will cause serious tsunamis, heavy uncontrollable storms will rise up with hurricane winds that will rise up even out of season and cause heavy damage.   Regions in the US--Major areas of concern are still California, Florida (the southern regions of these two states.) New Madrid (and Midwest region with Chicago is still on the watch list.)—We will also be covering the coastal regions of the New England states. We have placed Washington State, Hawaii, southeast Texas, (also Veracruz) back on the watch list. Fasting and Prophetic Visitation Fasting and Prayer will be going on throughout the month of January, starting with January 6th—January 26th 2013. We will be on a 21day Daniel fast. Following this word, in a few days, I will release the most powerful visitation that I had concerning the seasons for this year that will better prepare us for the days ahead and how the Lord revealed to me concerning his wisdom in the year 2013.     I am asking all who have been benefited by receiving these words to sow a seed into this work of the Lord. Many have never sown—this might be your time now. Your gift no matter how small will help to carry forth this work of the Kingdom as we pray peace and divine protection over your families, your dwelling places and your life’s stability in Christ Jesus. Every seed sown is precious to us. Shalom!

Word of the Lord for December 2012 by Prophet Phyllis Ford

November 20, 2012 "I have called upon you this day to witness my power and my glory. I am calling upon you this day to partake in my plan, and to complete my purpose in a world that has grown weary. I say to you today don’t give up because of the ground of great despair and worry. What many look upon as a breeding ground for destruction, anger and frustration—will now become the final birthing place for my army of sons that are rising up and are becoming mighty warriors, for victory and glory." "Trouble is coming in the midst of the winds of change and will cause a great shifting, even darkness will come upon the earth. But also know that before I return, I will raise up an end time kingdom of priest, with great power and glory. They will be an army of sons and all will know that the systems of greed and avarice will be destroyed. A time of kingdom government will come forth with a new glory of my presence to replace the despair with life and with spiritual strength, Godly integrity and honor. It will take form out of the patterns that I have set before you in my word. I am opening up treasures in the midst of famine, and that which has been lost will be recovered. I will replace what is known now as lack and loss with spiritual grace and mercy, strength and restoration. Too much has been relied upon by men who have not sought me on how to rebuild and replenish. When evil men begin to try to develop their plans based on mindsets that have no Godly vision and no spiritual resolve there is confusion and darkness." Proverbs 14:12 There is a way that seems right unto a man but the end thereof are the ways of death. "There will be a releasing of new life and light for healing in a time of weakness, there will be healing in a time of emptiness, and it will complete you in a time of uncertainty. So open up your eyes and heart as I minister to you inwardly with my mercy and my grace. Cry out for your loved ones. Cry out for this mercy and grace. My light will come to show you the way to go forward, even in times of darkness. In your cry I will speak to you, heal you, reveal you and raise you up. Come forth and allow me to transform you anew. Your cry is significant in this hour for this is what you have been prepared for and it is what I have called you to. So arise and take your place in the earth as my disciples of righteousness." "Approaching judgments have come as a result of a rebellious people and now the effects have been financial breakdowns, struggles of the nation’s stability, strife within the government, with pride in the leadership on many levels and on all sides. However the church also must bear responsibility for allowing the values of my word to be set aside. As they allowed the pride of man and the world system into the church and it has seriously compromised her and the nation’s values and beliefs followed suit. Men have brought forth a system that was been built like Babel and in the coming days you will see the fall of that kingdom before your eyes." "The key to seeing change will be from men coming together and praying, repenting, turning and changing their course. You must continue to Pray with power. You can turn the captivity of the people and land through prayer and walking out the apostolic and prophetic mandate of this hour without faltering. It is time to set yourselves over the nations praying, decreeing and declaring over kingdoms to root out, to pull down and to throw down, by destroying the present evil systems, and to build, and to plant everywhere the kingdom of God." "In my word you will see the importance of how my apostles released and walked out a strategy for kingdom building by planting and establishing sound doctrine, houses of prayer, while ushering in worldwide evangelism and laying the foundation of the baptism of the Holy Spirit." "In my word you will see the importance of how my prophets acted upon my instructions and keys were released to unlock mysteries and destroy the works of darkness and destruction. Know that I have set an appointed time and my timing is sure." "In my word you will see the enemy will rise up and in order to try to gain more power, they will challenge and fight even within their own ranks. They will fight each other, evil nation against evil nation, and evil kingdoms against evil kingdoms." Isaiah 19:2 I will set up the Egyptians against the Egyptians and they shall fight everyone with his brother, every one against his neighbor, city against city, kingdom against kingdom. "Search out my word for my answers are there before you. I will open my word and it will speak to you in greater levels and dimensions of understanding than you have ever known. My people are ready and hungry for truth in this hour and I will meet with them in visitations and watching, says the Lord. So seek me and answer my call now as the time is fast approaching and the enemy is looking to usher in a new order but remember this is the hour of the birthing for my army of sons." Isaiah 23:11 He stretched out his hands over the sea, He shook the kingdoms, the Lord has given a command against the merchant city, to destroy it’s strongholds. "It is also a time to understand that not only must you come into a new mindset of embracing my heavenly kingdom—but you also must come out of the thinking of the systems of this world in order to receive that which can only be acquired by my own hand. You must "come out from her" (the Babylonian system) and no longer rely on these things as your source for what you need. For even as my word says, that the kingdoms of this world will fall and will become the kingdoms of our God. These are the things which I have spoken to you about, so understand that you cannot cry for help from the effects of the worldly system while also allowing mammon to be your god. You must place your trust in me and the kingdom of God to provide for you and I will disperse from my hand that which you need." Matthew 6:24 No man serve two masters: for either he will hate the one and love the other; or else he will hold to one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon. "And I shall even provide for you by taking the wealth of wicked systems and I will release it into the hands of the just. It is essential you understand these things because your provision that you truly seek comes from the endless resources of my riches in glory. The right to access has always been in my presence. There will be those who must change their thinking because their spiritual inheritance has always come from heaven and not from the world. The heavenly economy is far greater and has a never ending value to it. Embrace it now so that you may receive answers, open new resources, and you will be able to see beyond what the world has to offer which is short-lived. Many have been entangled by trying to hold on to something that they never really owned. Those things carry with them the faulty reasoning of having possessions no matter what the cost, which could cost you to a greater degree in the end. Know that I am your exceeding great reward and I am as a spring of living water in a dry place that will provide drink even in the darkest hours, says the Lord." Prophetic Intercession Two major concerns are the visions that I have seen concerning infighting in our nation of the US. This is not just an imagined possibility but could become a very strong reality. It is very important that we cover this possibility with a canopy of prayer and the blood of Jesus. Israel is a grave concern as well—we must be stable, strong and leveled headed if we are going to be a strong help to Israel. One’s destiny is as vital as the other. But if there is envy and strife there in our nation our effectiveness to protect Israel becomes compromised and we will see confusion and every evil work. It could hinder our ability to lend strength and affects the fervency of our prayers at a very important time. The enemy’s strategy is keep us off course and we must be sharper than this in our reactions to things that have happened. We must stand in the gap for her (Israel). Earthquakes have been very active at this time. Storms will continue come and go as we wind down to the end of this year—continue to store up and gather important necessities during this time. Lately I have been troubled about the water systems—so pray around possible sabotage around water systems. The prophetic alert around the major cities are still in place—Texas is still on the watch list along with the other cities mentioned in November’s list. I also look to hear some major feedback from the regions of Russia, North Korea, Iran and China to the United States that will be a flexing of muscles with major strength and challenges. I will be in before the Lord for the rest of the year I have had a strong feeling that 2013 will begin with serious trouble. Be in prayer with us as we stay before His presence in this hour. Please go to this link on you tube to listen to an vital message for this hour. It is on a scripture that the Lord gave me back in August. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MDo8hBZiRtA I am asking all who have been benefited by receiving these words to sow a seed into this work of the Lord. Many have never sown—this might be your time now. Your gift no matter how small will help to carry forth this work of the Kingdom as we pray peace and divine protection over your families, your dwelling places and your life’s stability in Christ Jesus. Every seed sown is precious to us. Shalom!

Word of the Lord for November 2012 by Prophet Phyllis Ford

October 30, 2012 Prophetic Insights The Lord began to share what I believe to be keen wisdom that we need to follow in this hour. The stage is set for much upheaval with emotions running wild, and the enemy will attempt to set up scenarios that will lead people into a greater state of confusion and chaos. It is so important for us to walk in the Spirit and not allow our fleshly desires to dictate to us how to react in order to deal with the temptations of the world. The scripture that came to mind says: Luke 21:34-36 "And take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be over charged with surfeiting and drunkenness and cares of this life and so that day come upon you unawares. For as a snare shall it come on all them on the face of the whole earth. Watch ye, therefore and pray always; that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass and to stand before the son of man." I saw a vision of a battlefield where men were fighting with each other—many of them had looks of hatred. There was much violence like I have never seen. Then I saw the same battlefield but now there were multitudes of people praying with strong intercession crying great tears, supplication and travail. In that group some would stand and decree and I would see the wind of change blow and things would shift and the ground would shake. As I stayed in prayer, I begin to understand what the Lord was saying to us his people about this hour that we are living in. We must be careful not to allow the enemy to set up confrontations to get the people to react out of their frustrations and emotions. Also if we are not prayerful in this season it could lead to serious consequences. I somehow knew that the situations were being staged to cause a reaction. The Lord further showed me that the battlefield filled with the prayers of the saints was the answer for this hour and it was the way to overcome the circumstances that would be presented. The Lord said: The Battle is waged "You are engaged in a battle in this hour. It is a kingdom battle that is being waged in the heavenlies and has everything to do with what is going to occur in the earthly realm. It’s a battle between the kingdom of heaven and the kingdom of darkness. It is being waged for righteousness sake to retain and hold the ground that has been given to my people. A great price was paid for it. But this is not about land but about the work of the kingdom. For glory, honor, majesty and the beauty of Holiness reigning upon this earth as it is in the heavens. I have given you what needs to be done according to my word and how you shall rely on what I have placed in your hands. It is my written word to overcome the work of darkness that is being waged in this hour." "Know I have given you power over all the power of the enemy. I have placed in you my principles for life which are clearly expressed in my word. And I have already placed a firm foundation established by my apostles and prophets in which I am the chief corner stone. Do not get disheartened nor be dismayed. It is important that you are clear concerning what is about to occur. But know in your heart as the darkness rises to try to cover situations and circumstances, my light will continue to shine to guide and show you the way to help remedy and to answer that which you will need for this time. You must not let the distractions of the day to take over your heart and mind. Fear will try to get you to react but don’t let vain imaginations rise up and keep you from being in my presence. Don’t allow presumptuous ideas to get you to react in haste. Keep your mind clear, reading over the word—praying in the Spirit so that I can speak to you and allow you to understand what is going on around you. Study my word, read and learn from the words that were spoken to help you fight, defend and protect that which is yours. I have placed many keys to assist you to victory in the days ahead." Understanding Babylon’s Mysteries "There are mysteries that are being unlocked now in Genesis, Isaiah, Daniel and in the book of Revelations and many more. Learn to know about the times you live in. The importance of this knowledge will soon uncover great keys that are necessary for you to know how to overcome. You must study to know about the system of Babylon in the past, present and what is to come. Understand that Babylon was a system made up by man to build, achieve and excel without me. My word will help you understand that a system without God (me) is a mere reflection of the world system today. When I am removed from that process then destruction is inevitable and its’ future progress is only temporal. Also know that every work of evil has an appointed time to end." "This is a time when you will see where man’s allegiances are and with whom will they stand, whether they will be sheep nations or goat nations. It will also be a time when the people of God will see persecution and blame coming against the body of Christ. There will be those in the heat of this hour that will turn their backs in fear of what will happen to them. They will even hold alliances that they feel will protect their position but it will not. So know that in the future you will see battles on several levels." The Economy will give way right before 2013 "Our economy will face its most serious battle of trying to keep the nation afloat. However ever since February 2012 this country as well as many others were in its’ gravest danger of total collapse. Up to now it has appeared like many other situations to run well but it has been tittering on a serious downturn. It didn’t happen overnight but like everything else, the people will be the last to know. Right towards the end of this year you will see the economy barely hanging and it will give way before 2013 sets in." Those that were praying in the battlefield will see victory "This battle is being waged on Spiritual levels as well. You must know that the enemy wants you to think that you cannot overcome but you can and will. For in this hour, I will add strength to what you know and what you believe in your heart. This is why you know my word, study my word, meditate upon my word and even pray my word. It is your key to victory and overcoming the works of the enemy. You have become my habitation upon this earth and you will rise up with power and dominion. You are only limited by what you don’t know—know my word and walk out my word. For I will release my anointing; it will be like a garment that will clothe you and protect you in the darkness of time." "There are battles being waged within some of you. You must build your faith to understand that whatever may rise up against you, I have already prepared in you what you need. Your faith is the most important thing that you have now—you have asked questions as to why do things seem delayed? Why do you seem so tested now? Why do circumstances seem so hard now? When you study your word—you will see that when the people of God persevered and prevailed because they refused to give up, they refused to give in and that they rose up with faith and the faith they possessed brought them through. These hardships were not put upon you by me but have everything to do with times you are living in. I have been there by your side encouraging you, giving you the hope to apply with your faith along with my love---know that which has kept you is able to keep you from falling." "The question to answer is: Are you prepared to meet the demands that these times hold in store for you? Are you ready to overcome?—Are you ready to be the army that I have prepared you to be, before the foundation of this earth. Are you ready to help others, and stand in the gap for them? So that not only you will overcome, but so many others will as well." The Prophetic Mandate "See, I have set this time of prophetic outpouring; and as a people, I have set you over nations and over the kingdoms and systems to root out, pull down, destroy, throw down, to build, and to plant. Are you willing to pray? Build up your most Holy faith praying in the Holy Ghost. (Jude 1:20) Are you ready to decree my word, speak my word and command my word: calling those things that are not as though they were? Rise up and garner all the strength that I have given you to succeed, to win, to overcome, to wage war in the Spirit by my power, says the Lord. I have called you to be and uphold the kingdom of God upon this earth. So, blow the trumpet in Zion, to sound the alarm, and pray without ceasing. Take the sword of the Spirit and cut away the lies and deception that has tried to speak into the ears of the people. This battle must be engaged in the spirit if it is to have any affect upon the works of darkness. There are many filled with anger and frustration that the enemy desires to engage in a physical battle which could result in violence and destruction. This satanic motivation is being motivated to thwart the accomplishments of the kingdom that will come forth. Through you much will be accomplished---through my Holy Ones for you will prove that you have been raised up and prepared for this hour. It is not by might nor by power but by my Spirit, says the Lord. (Zechariah 4:6)" Prophetic Intercession I have had several dreams (one of which) I will share because of the seriousness of the tone in which I received it. I was in a large building like a convention center of some type and a mega-church was making plans to purchase a large facility to share with another large church so that they would share cost but would have the benefit of sharing a space. Many people were talking about giving their substance to help the upcoming project. I left out of the meeting and went up some stairway to the top of the building and as I approached it—I held on to a pillar located at the top of the steps and I held onto it very tightly (with my arms surrounding it). All of a sudden ---a shaking began and it got more and more pronounced as I stood there. I knew in my mind that I wouldn’t have time to run down the stairs and get out of the building in time. It was coming quickly!! I began to pray and I received the assurance that even in the midst of the shaking I would survive. As I awoke I thought wow, men are making plans for bigger churches but were unaware of the great shaking that is coming. Pray about this shaking. Our watch list continues and the Lord told me to add Texas to the list. Please continue to pray around storms (mentioned in Word of the Lord--Oct 2012) especially around the East coast with Hurricane Sandy. It is essential to pray around the storms: spiritual and natural ones as well. (In discussion with a watchman in NY, major cities should be covered as well.) Watchmen and Intercessors: please continue to pray around the gates around London, Washington DC, New York, The Vatican, Brussels and Paris. (See Word of the Lord for May 2012 concerning "Gates.") I cannot emphasize how important it is for us to continue to cry out to the Father concerning Israel. (Especially in this month more than anytime.) Even though there are many theories as to the seriousness of possible wars, I am continuing to watch Russia and the US as well as Iran and North Korea because no matter what may appear outwardly the undercurrent of the conflict between these nations will soon be uncovered. I continue to have a major concern, around a very serious earthquake and a very significant tsunami to follow. I am adding Seattle and the Canary Islands back on as well as praying over Hawaii and Chicago still high on our spiritual radar and are on our watch list—which includes—California—(west coast & east coast) Florida, Veracruz. The President and serious trouble concerning his life is still on our watch list.

Word of the Lord for October 2012 and Beyond by Prophet Phyllis Ford

October 3, 2012 There are several areas of focus that the Lord has been speaking to me about concerning this month of October 2012. I had a vision and the Lord begin to give an understanding of it. But before I go into those things I need to say that there is so much in September’s word that we are seeing right now as we see the Middle East uprisings, UN meetings and the turmoil surrounding our present government. Continue to read and reread last month’s word because the Lord said that there are things that are yet to occur. This month marks an important transition in every believer’s life. Some very serious and strong choices must be made. The answers to these issues might seem to alienate a person and may lead to future persecution, but they may also determine the level of responsibility as a Christian that you will have to handle in the coming days before 2013. As this year progresses we are seeing some serious things unfold on many different fronts. From politics in government to the politics in the pulpit, the positions that are being taken now that will clearly determine our future. 1. I had a powerful vision concerning garments—I saw a large hand and it was coming out of the heavens—the hand was passing out garments. Some of them were gold sparkling garments, others were white sparkling garments and the other garments were in other colors but they were not sparkling and they were placed in a different group upon an altar like table. When the individuals received the gold and white garments---they were instantly placed upon them; the individuals wearing them seem to sparkle as well. Also I noticed that the garments were not visible (like clothes) once they were put on but after that they became a part of the persons who wore them. The other individuals received the three other colors which were red, tan, and a light blue. These individuals also took their garments and it became a part of them as well. It appeared to me that I was witnessing a transformation of a people and the Lord let me know that the garments I saw were like a covering of His glory upon them and that this was the time when His people would walk in the newness of this hour that the glory and the presence of the Living God would be upon them and they would go forth in this hour and do great exploits. I knew in my Spirit that this was an awesome move of God and these garments represented the significance of this move—what I saw was very light and airy—very gentle and carried a movement as if it could have been put to music. This move of God is going to move forward and the impact of it will greatly affect kingdom growth and development of the sons that are being birthed in this hour. The Lord went on to say, “The time is short and much shall be accomplished in this hour, I shall prepare my people-- cover them and clothe them-- so that they may advance and move forward --- and even those who have not understood what is going on before them-- will see clearer and will understand greater what is taking place. As they depend upon me, rely upon me, they will understand the assignments that are before them and walk them out according to the power which I have given them. As they receive my glory they will fully understand the purposes and path that I have prepared for them. They shall move forth in areas, realms and the jurisdictions that I have established for this time. They will walk over false doctrines, lies, and deceptions of the enemy. They will break forth into new realms of my spirit and they shall not be afraid of the things that will stand before them. I am bringing them forth as a royal priesthood and a kingdom of priest, a Holy Nation that will serve and rule with the understanding of the economy of Heaven—That glory which was passed on from the Father to me and is now placed upon them. Heaven will celebrate the accomplishments of my people that I will release to every kindred, every nation and every tongue. They will carry the power, wealth, honor, glory, and wisdom and the beauty of Holiness shall be their portion, says the Lord.” John 17:22-23 Amplified I have given to them the glory and honor which You have given Me, that they may be one [even] as We are one: I in them and You in Me, in order that they may become one and perfectly united, that the world may know and [definitely] recognize that You sent Me and that You have loved them [even] as You have loved Me. 2. The Lord spoke about the importance of the choices that will be made during this time. That he will establish a new reality that will reveal to men their own hearts. He also spoke of the spirit of confusion that is upon the land, and how our purpose is to pray His Will upon this earth as it is in heaven. That we should pray that we as a people embrace that will. We must learn to pray that we are that generation of people that will answer the call to that which already exist in heaven as the kingdom is coming (realized) upon this earth. This is a type of mystery in itself. The Lord says that we have entered into that “new day reality.” When God’s word says “Put on the Lord Jesus Christ and make not provision for the flesh to fulfill the lust thereof.” Our putting on Christ will help us to no longer look in our natural understanding only to overcome obstacles but we will look to His word and Pray Lord according to the Kingdom which is in Heaven, help me to understanding how to do thus and so. He began to illustrate this understanding when He said that during this time in October that finances will be released in order to advance kingdom purposes but also speaks to us to see beyond that to an even greater economy within the kingdom and to learn how to walk in it. “Do not desire to just possess that which comes from the tangible realm of riches that I am going to release—but I desire that you go beyond that to understand the spiritual truths of my covenant which I freely give to those who have laid aside their normal thinking process to learn something greater. Know that I have provision and I give to you that provision as your portion but it is not your ultimate provision. I have given you the possession of my right hand which is able to help you through every obstacle that stands before you. It will also provide help to others with the necessities that will be needed in times of crisis and hardship. You will be able to achieve these things because your choice was to receive from my kingdom resources and not just from the limited resources that you see around you. In my word—I have provided manna that came down heaven to feed the children of Israel in the wilderness, water that came forth out of a rock; and even armies that were released from my heavenly host so that they might know that there were more with them, then those that were against them. So do not allow the trouble of this hour to leave you with a feeling of great despair, for I am able to deliver you out of the hands of the enemy and provide for you resources that are beyond your circumstances. Don’t just look to the temporal things as a way to overcome. The silver and gold is mine, and so are all the resources that are upon this earth. I have power to move it out of the hands of the wicked into the hands of the just. But know also that as you possess true faith, my word, my truth and my spirit—there is nothing impossible to those that believe.” Matthew 17:20 And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you. The Lord went on to further say: “Many people have aligned themselves to feelings that were upon their hearts and as a result formed an allegiance with ungodly mindsets that are not based on the word of God. Some issues that appeared “blurred” and as a result people couldn’t discern the motives behind them. But now they will be able to see more clearly as to the underlying meanings of those who first initiated them. Some people have been confused by following their own imaginations and not my will. But the more things become clearer; people will be able to change their decisions to follow the truth of my word. I am tearing down the walls of deception and exposing the very hand of the enemy within these next thirty days. People will be able to see because I am removing the scales from their eyes. I am also unfolding and uncovering, revealing hidden motives and hidden agendas.” “It is important that as a people you don’t allow your emotions to determine your principles but that your principles must be founded upon the truth of my word. It is important that your loyalties are even clear to yourself now so that you will not become beguiled by the world’s standards. You can’t pray to me and say: “Lord, reveal to me the plan that you have for my life.” and as I reveal to you the truth of my word—offences arise within you, as you reject the truth of my word. Do not draw lines of loyalties and conclusions around your feelings and experiences. I am your Lord and creator, I have extended to you my everlasting covenant, in that you will live but also rule, reign and further establish the kingdom upon this land. By this you will provide help to those who feel they are lost and without hope. You must know what you believe in your own heart in this hour. So that when times of crisis and dilemma come you will do that which is right. So many ideals and feelings that don’t line up to my word have taken over men’s hearts and decisions have been made based on teachings that those who have itching ears want to hear, but they have no truth in them. Much false teaching has been woven into my word and being introduced as revelation. Evil has been perceived as good, fair and the right thing to do when, good has been called mean, insensitive and intolerant and out of touch. On the other hand I have principles that carry my love and compassion to all people. It does not discard a people because of its culture, but seeks to save that which is lost and restore those who are without spiritually and naturally so. It is my word of reconciliation and the ministry of reconciliation.” (2 Corinthians 5: 17-19) Isaiah 30:10 They say to the seers, "See no more visions!" and to the prophets, "Give us no more visions of what is right! Tell us pleasant things, prophesy illusions. 2 Timothy 4:3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears. Isaiah 5:20 Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter! The Lord spoke concerning the seriousness of this month of October 2012 and how we’re about to witness a time where the works of the enemy will be exposed and be judged according to their own evil pursuits. But it will be noted as a series of storms will arise out of this month. I heard in prayer troubling suddenlies with great shakings. “There are greater storms coming ahead in various parts of the nations, these will be natural ones with government infighting between the frustrations/opposition of the people who feel as if they were nor counted nor considered. These emotions will run high and deep and will result in violence and further confusion. There will be physical storms that will result in violent winds and unusual weather conditions from the east to the political storms which will seem to take on the same atmosphere in those regions. This will keep mounting causing major concerns. It will add to the fear that many will be experiencing, but stay strong and don’t allow the fear to dictate your ability to overcome. Many stormy situations will arise without warning—this is a month where prayer will keep you grounded and help you navigate through trouble. You must be vigilant, watchful and stay quiet before me so that you can make split second decisions that save you as well as others who will need your help. Persistent prayer will keep your mind and heart in peace and your spirit alert to everything that is going around. Pray without ceasing is the order of the day. I will lead you and guide you to places of safety. Remember I am the Lord and I change not—I will be with you even in the midst of great trouble and I will provide pockets of protective places. You will hear great testimonies, where many will be lead to places and in the midst of devastation there will be safety right at its’ side.” Prophetic Intercession: It is essential to pray around the storms: spiritual and natural ones as well. Watchmen and Intercessors: please continue to pray around the gates around London, Washington DC, New York, The Vatican, Brussels and Paris. (See Word of the Lord for May 2012 concerning “Gates.”) I cannot emphasize how important it is for us to continue to cry out to the Father concerning Israel. Especially in this month more than anytime. Even though there are many theories as to the seriousness of possible wars, I am continuing to watch Russia and the US as well as Iran and North Korea because no matter what may appear outwardly the undercurrent of the conflict between these nations will be uncovered. I continue to have a major concern, around a very serious earthquake and a very significant tsunami to follow. I am adding Seattle and the Canary Islands back on as well as praying over Hawaii and Chicago still high on our spiritual radar and are on our watch list—as—California—(west coast & east coast) Florida, Veracruz. The President and serious trouble concerning his life is still on our watch list. Consider seriously storing food and water, The Lord said to me in prayer a great famine is coming.. Various intercession groups will be fasting and praying during this month of October.

Word of the Lord for September 2012 and Beyond by Prophet Phyllis Ford

August 27, 2012 “In this month there will be a great birthing of things that will come forth and with every birthing comes travail, pain and birth pangs. But, after the time of birthing there will be the calm after the birth. A great birthing of sons is coming forth. But at the same time there will be an appearing of that which has sown evil also. It is about to be realized as well. In the midst of these things I will be moving by my own hand with great change.” The Lord said that this month of September will yield and be filled with various serious issues that have been brewing and they are about to come to a complete head. The frustrations of many people have been building. There now pervades a tension throughout the land –almost as if we have been watching a ticking time bomb and this has been leading up to a time where things must be dealt with one way or another. Much of what we will see played out this month will be as a result of things that have gone too far. There will be acts of terrorism (much of it will be home grown) that will occur ---even in US, London and other areas in Europe as well. War plans will be challenged –which have been like a volcano ready to erupt. They will also be pushed towards an edge. “This birthing is a coming forth of the manifested sons of God and they are preparing for advancement, even for battle. In the time that they are coming forth they will come into direct conflict with the manifestation of evil that has been festering with greed, pride, arrogance and rebellion against the work of the Living God. I shall prepare my people and I shall strengthen them as they come forth for they will be ready for the many things that will be occurring during this month of September.” Romans 8:19-22 “For the earnest expectation of the creature waits for the manifestation of the sons of God. For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope, Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God. For we know that the whole creation groans and travails in pain together until now.” “They shall come forth as righteous warriors who will not shrink back nor break rank. At the very same time the evil, which has already begun to take form, in its’ violence, hatred and anger in high degrees, will be ready to takeover. Even the root of that spirit which is trying to destroy all that doesn’t carry its’ false dogma and is ready to defend its’ position to appear as angels of light and so called followers of truth. So this is a day to be sober minded and quite discerning so that you will know and be able to differentiate good from evil, light from that which carries a false light. My warriors are coming forth out of the birthing and have been produced through hard labor and deep times of intercession. They have been produced in delays and even recent battles that could only be fought in the heavenly realm. You must come to understand and know that I have determined the victors and how this course will run and I have already set in place my plan for my people. They will overcome and walk in the triumph which I prepared before the foundations of the earth.” “In these first ten days I will release many instructions and resources to aid you in the season. I will provide details concerning your path and assignment before you. Observe, pray and understand the power of what you have received because interwoven with the assignments I will release specific instructions that coincide with the abilities that I have placed in you. Do not underestimate what I have given you. Keys to unlock—Keys to lock out—doors that will open and doors that will no longer be your option to take. Follow everything that you do in prayer and thanksgiving for this is my will that concerns your life. I will never send you on a journey without ample supplies to achieve what you are to do. I will never give you an assignment without the ability to complete what you set out to do and begin. This will help you to understand what I have called you to do and what may be set before you as a deception. Stay in your word, it is the manna that I give to you in this hour that you will be able to understand my ways and know how to follow your specific path that I have chosen for you. In this hour I will give to you revelation to understand that which was not previously understood and it will become clear and you will know the way before you, says your Lord.” During the fast the Lord woke me around the 4th watch and began to share with me concerning things that were getting ready to happen within these next two months, September and October. He began by saying that in this time that the work of the kingdom is going to come forth stronger than ever and it will spread like a wild fire that would not be hindered for it will move upon the land and across the waters to bring forth the kingdom purposes in this hour and day to come. Also that we are standing in the new day of time when everything is going to take form that has been going on for these last years and from now until the coming of 2013 there is about to be a strong shift that will produce everything in its strength, of that which is good and that which is evil. For that which is good that has been incubating over these past months since the beginning of this year—it is now taking form and moving forth as a mighty army of God, as sons of the kingdom, understanding their sonship and the importance of the foundations of the tabernacle of David. “Rosh Hashanah will be remembered as the time that the light shined upon the nations and uncovered the ills and evils that have now caused trouble to be upon the land. But know when the light comes upon the darkness, the darkness won’t comprehend the light. Some things through the glory of God, will be uprooted and uncovered. It will set in motion the destruction of the evil—and those who have been waiting for the light will see it and be glad—much will be done because of the light. All of false lights will be exposed in the face of that which is real. My light will uncover the deception that has been taught and these things will cease to reflect a certain illusion of power. It will be uncovered in the camp and uncovered in the land.” “I am moving things into place in order to keep some things from escalating into greater trouble and I am moving to push forward my kingdom plans into full swing. Because as crisis comes forth—so will crisis management, as evil pervades throughout the laid with frustration, greed, and anger—I will also bring forth those with answers and solutions to deal with serious situations with my wisdom in order to calm the storms of these days.” “This is a time of being watchful and to be in watch for much will occur suddenly and without notice. There have been those who have planned evil throughout the cities and even regions beyond the US. They want to place fear and uncertainty in the hearts of many. But quit ye like men and don’t allow the events and occurrences of the hour to paralyze you in fear. Be observant and watch/pray. Be quick and diligent at this time so that you will know what to do and how to do it. For I will release keys that will unlock ways to counter the enemies tactics and you will be able to overcome as you walk in righteousness and stay before my presence. Know that there are several alliances to several causes and you must be careful not to support and engage in any of them other than the purposes of the kingdom. As my glory descends upon this earth I shall judge and I shall shake the very foundations that must be destroyed because the time has come to expose and uncover the works of the enemy that align themselves with the kingdoms of this world. Keep your faithfulness to my word, my truth, my righteousness and the work of Calvary that has been accomplished for your lives that you may be saved from the powers of darkness. Walk in the light of my salvation, holiness, and compassion which will lead men to life and the resurrection in my blood which was shed for all. These are serious times. They are times where men will rise up and declare who they are and to whom they belong. Know that you have been called for this time, this hour. It is time to walk in what I have placed in you. So go forth and you will not miss the mark.” “And the horn of my anointed ones will be exalted and promotion will come forth. That which has exalted itself will now be brought down. This shifting will not come quietly but with everything that has been mounting from economic issues to one crisis and from another crisis which will all be pushed together. At the end result of that chaos will come a clashing of factors that have no resolve therefore this trouble will breed a serious crisis.” Psalm 75: Song of Asaph: Unto thee, O God, do we give thanks, unto thee do we give thanks, for that thy name is near thy wondrous works declare. When I shall receive the congregation I will judge uprightly. The earth and all the inhabitants thereof are dissolved: I bear up the pillars of it. Selah. I said unto the fools, Deal not foolishly: and to the wicked, Lift not up the horn: Lift not up your horn on high: speak not with a stiff neck. For promotion comes neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the south. But God is the judge: he puts down one, and sets up another. For in the hand of the LORD there is a cup, and the wine is red; it is full of mixture; and he pours out of the same: but the dregs thereof, all the wicked of the earth shall wring them out, and drink them. But I will declare forever; I will sing praises to the God of Jacob. All the horns of the wicked also will I cut off; but the horns of the righteous shall be exalted. The Lord began to share the analogy; of great tremors that will break forth –coming from underneath the surface. These are similar to the result of things that have been hidden under the surface—the lies within the government, the cover ups and dishonesty that this nation has allowed. The pressure builds and begins to push until that pressure causes the breaking away of the surface and the ground starts to separate and give way. It reveals an uncovering of circumstances that have tried to frustrate the plans of righteousness, concerning the things of God in this nation. He said that these things cannot continue without a blowing up of these issues since there’s been no relief or resolve and now they are ready to surface—from the presidential candidates to government cover ups, to ties to organizations and people with evil covenants that this nation have made for greed, for power, for the ability to control and to own these regions. These are the very issues that can destroy a nation and its people. Everything is coming to a head and you are about to see the unlocking of a sequence of events that will happen as a result of these actions. The warning signs have already become visible. To those who are on the fence with what they believe and who to follow: “This is a time to make your calling and election sure. You must begin to make decisions about who will you follow and what you will do with your life. These decisions are vital for your future. There is much coming upon the land and it is important to no longer halt between two opinions. Make a choice to embrace the love that I freely give to you. I say to you this day you are my son, my daughter in whom I have waited and loved and even been longsuffering. Come in and sit at my table before my presence so that I may nourish you with my love and strengthen you with my life. For I love you with an everlasting love and the time of my beckoning is nigh.” Prophetic Intercession: Water is a very strong concern right now during my personal times of intercession---I saw polluted waters. I emphasize again the need to store water. The Lord told me about two passages in the word concerning 2 Kings 4:38-41, 2 Kings 4:42-44. He said that we must not just read the word and not believe that these things can occur in today’s time. There was poison in the pot that was prepared by the herbs and vines that were gathered that day. Elisha received wisdom and instructed them to bring meal and to add it into the pot to remove the poison. “I will bring forth solutions out of the mouth of my prophets---so shall I raise up the prophetic mantle of those who will provide ways to quell the poisons that have been gathered by man’s hand. And it will remove –the evil effects of death and destruction—and many will be saved.” “I will also release the miraculous in the midst of trouble, even in famine and in extreme circumstances I will be with you, I will take the weak things, even the small things and bring forth great things. I will bring forth divine supply and multiply your resources.” I cannot emphasize how important it is for us to continue to cry out to the Father concerning Israel. Even though there are many theories as to the seriousness of possible wars, I am continuing to watch Russia and the US because no matter what may appear outwardly the undercurrent of the conflict between both nations will be revealed. My major concern has been around a very serious earthquake and a very significant tsunami to follow. I am praying over Hawaii---Chicago was placed on our watch list and there were shootings there in August but we are keeping Chicago on our watch list—as—California—(west coast & east coast) Florida, Veracruz. Storms spiritual and natural ones are still looming over major watch areas. The President and serious trouble concerning his life is still on our watch list. Special Note: Watchmen and Intercessors please continue to pray around the gates around London, Washington DC, New York, The Vatican, Brussels and Paris. (See Word of the Lord for May 2012 concerning “Gates.”) We personally salute all of you who joined us on our Daniel Fast for 21 days—according to our information—we had intercessors on 5 continents watching, fasting and praying. Thank you so much for your participation as well as those who prayed us through while we fasted.

Word of the Lord for August 2012 by Prophet Phyllis Ford

July 31, 2012 "There is about to be a turning of the tides: that which was on the bottom is about to rise up and take its rightful place and that which has been (on the top) highly exalted is about to plummet to the bottom. You must understand that everything that has been done up to now in your life has had a purpose and now during this major time of transition it’s about to give way to that which must be done according to my word. Even when you didn't realize it, my favor has been upon your life leading guiding and directing you and even revealing and unveiling all to you, so that you would know the most essential things right now. I have also been pointing out to you the things that must now be eliminated in your life and those things which are truly needed. The results of whether the right decisions were made have to do with what you believe and what your heart has been following after." "There is so much deception in the land--people have become accustomed and drawn to the world’s system, its lifestyle, and its values. As a result many have fallen away and have dulled their perception of that which is good and that which is evil, and as a result false idols have been exalted before them and if they don't awake from their slumber it could further jeopardize their own faith. So much has been staged to appear good when it is in fact evil. Celebrations have been made to appear joyful when they in fact have become rituals of idolatry. Yes, there is a turning and a shifting of things to come with great reversals. But I have prepared ways of escape and I have provided the strategy to overcome the works of darkness so that the people may continue to arise from their state of slumber to receive the light of my gospel.”  Ephesians 5:10-17 (amplified version) And try to learn [in your experience] what is pleasing to the Lord [let your lives be constant proofs of what is most acceptable to Him].Take no part in and have no fellowship with the fruitless deeds and enterprises of darkness, but instead [let your lives be so in contrast as to] [a]expose and reprove and convict them. For it is a shame even to speak of, or mention the things that [such people] practice in secret. But when anything is exposed and reproved by the light, it is made visible and clear; and where everything is visible and clear there is light. Therefore He says, Awake, O sleeper, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall shine (make day dawn) upon you and give you light. Look carefully then how you walk! Live purposefully and worthily and accurately, not as the unwise and witless, but as wise (sensible, intelligent people), Making the very most of the time [buying up each opportunity], because the days are evil. Therefore do not be vague and thoughtless and foolish, but understanding and firmly grasping what the will of the Lord is. “Today’s question is: Who do men say that I am? And I ask you personally who do you say I am? Because the answers to these questions will point towards your choices, your understanding and even what you will stand for. Things have shifted tremendously within the last couple of days, it's a time to come out from among those who refuse to obey my word, those who refused to remove the high places of their idolatry and are determined to live their lives according to the dictates of their fleshly whims. So I say to you today. "Come out from among them and be separate," says the Lord. (Isaiah 52:11, Rev 18:4) 2 Corinthians 6:16-17 "And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? For ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you." “Today I make my words clear--I love all of my people, and I have been longsuffering over them. My heart is to redeem them from all that is ungodly and breathe upon them new life so that none should perish. However, those who now continually sin and believe that no matter what the circumstances may be, that they will see eternal life in glory are deceived. I have spoken to my prophets in this hour and I have made it clear that the time has come when the actions of men have been weighed in the balances and found wanting. This is the time to turn and return, to come into the sheepfold, for the Master is calling those that are his. My grace has been extended for those who need to return so I say to you come in my beloved.” “Those who are waiting for something to change and transform their lives without seeking spiritual growth and maturity must understand that they must also embrace with faith, the light of my word that is coming upon them. This is a time that you must determine what you will do and what will you stand for. Your spirit, if it is guided by the Holy Spirit will lead you onto the pathway that I have chosen. This is why you must be on the right course and moving in the right direction. Your ability to humble your ways and even look to me for what you will need is essential. Allow my glory to take you beyond the places you can’t go yourself.” “This is an hour for deliverance, a great time of transition---many of you are transitioning into fulfilling your purpose and destiny. Transition and transformation during this time run hand in hand, you will not be able to successfully transition if you don't allow the process of transformation to take place. So let me complete in you that which must be accomplished. Yield and receive!!! It is the key to operating as my Manifested Sons in the earth.” "Don't lose focus even with all of the storms that will be raging around you. There are some very important things to be aware of right now. It is not focused upon what is the enemies next move but how do you succeed?  How do you overcome? How do you fulfill your calling as My Manifested Sons? How do you breakthrough?" “The two important keys that you need right now is to trust in me and learn how to yield and receive me so that you may be able to conquer and overcome. I am strengthening you for the battles ahead and so that you may triumph in areas that cannot be done other than through me saith the Lord. Know that the keys of what I have placed into your hands are acquired through your faith and my word. Your trust and belief in me positions you for breakthrough, for breaking out, and for breaking beyond all the barriers that will be placed against you. But when you believe upon me many things will be possible. There are realms in me that you have yet to achieve but will be commonplace in the very near future. The key to becoming the Manifested Sons of God is directly connected with receiving me and believing upon my name. It is a fellowship that is clearly connected to Sonship, and a reality understanding your true identity.”    John 1:9-14 That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world. He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not. He came unto his own, and his own received him not. But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.       Spiritual Leaders: “And Jesus knew their thoughts, and said unto them, Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and every city or house divided against itself shall not stand.” Matthew 12:25 “Remember that a house divided against itself cannot stand. This is the time when I will uncover those who refuse to listen to my warnings and continue in their iniquity as if no one knows what they have entangled themselves into—I am about to uncover that which is unclean and I will remove individuals who continue to rebel against my word and by their misconduct have caused the gospel to be blamed. In this hour the lives of others are literally hanging in the balance. There are some who are standing by eager to serve and eager to grow and understand righteousness. I will not have them waiting in vain. I say to you also to be careful, do not allow jealousy and strife to cause you to speak evil because what you say could be weighed against you, judge not--lest you enter into the same judgment. I am the one who judges the righteous and the wicked. I will determine who will go forth and whose hand I will strengthen. I have laid out a plan and a course for my people and it will not be hindered. I have observed those who have taken my grace and used it as a license to sin. Be careful for I am uncovering in this hour.” To My Chosen: “To those of you who have served without looking for anything in return, I say to you prepare, for promotion will come and manifest in ways that you have ever fathom. You will enter into a place of divine supply even in the midst of an approaching famine. Know that I am making your way so that you will help prepare the way for others. I salute the times that you have pressed in for the sake of others so that they could be saved, filled and comforted. Your very compassion will bring forth great miracles and you will walk in me without reservation, without questions—possessing the land, the oil, the wine and the bread that comes down from the heavens. Hold on I am coming for you and yes there is a coming forth--before the coming.” “This is a very important month of consecration and separation---of the wheat from the tares, the light from darkness, righteousness from sin, good from evil, as well as the sheep from the goats. The nations will be defined in this hour whether they be of great light or gross darkness and you will know one from the other. And those who will deny Israel will deny me, and will be held accountable. This is a time to break through, break out , and breaking beyond for those who have cried out to me and not lost the faith, your time has come and it will not be delayed. I have timed everything perfectly in the order that I have ordained for it to be, says the Lord.” There are no prophetic insights—this word is very clear—it was related in a serious manner. This may wind up being one of the most serious times of the year. Prophetic Intercession: Two significant recent dreams: 1.)    I was in a place where there had been great devastation—it appeared to be an urban area and very populated place inner city atmosphere—there was no sound and all I hear was, “Call the spiritual first responders.” First responders have a special significance, they are trained and skilled with the necessary tools to help in immediate emergencies and they respond to the area that they specialize in be it medical, agricultural or military related. They are first on scene and help remove the person from the immediate crisis. Their focus is to remove the victim from the crisis. They are those who are trained and prepared to be the first on scene to assist in a crisis. I have been prayer/preparation mode because of the waves of crisis that have appeared on the scene as of late. Watchmen and intercessors stay on your post I believe this speaks volumes in the area of intercession. 2.)    The other dream seem to be very serious however there is very little I remembered—I was observing another scene of devastation and I was in tears but the territory seem unfamiliar to me. The only words I heard was from my own mouth: It’s the sound of Rachel weeping for her children, a sound of lamentation. (I found this to be very troubling.) Therefore I am praying for further clarification. (Jeremiah 31:15-16, Matthew 2:18) War plans between nations have not lifted from off my radar as of yet. Especially after my dream concerning the statement of Rachel weeping over her children—I cannot emphasize how important it is for us to cry out to the Father concerning Israel. Even though there are many theories as to the seriousness of possible wars, I am continuing to watch Russia and the US because no matter what may appear outwardly the undercurrent of the conflict between both nations will be revealed. My major concern has been around a very serious earthquake and a very significant tsunami to follow. I am praying over Hawaii---Chicago is still on our watch list—as—California—(west coast & east coast) Florida, Veracruz. These storms that we have witnessed are indications of spiritual and natural storms looming—such the economy, the coming election, crisis in government, even serious trouble around the President. Special Note: Watchmen and Intercessors please continue to pray around the gates around London, Washington DC, New York, The Vatican, Brussels and Paris. (See Word of the Lord for May 2012 concerning “Gates.”) Prophetess Toni M. Green and I are calling a Daniel Fast beginning on August 8, 2012 @ 8am until August 29, 2012 @ 8am.

Word of the Lord for July 2012 by Prophet Phyllis Ford

July 4, 2012 “It is important for you to know that everything is and will be determined by what you will follow after and who you will serve. If you live after my truth you will find an open access to many things that you would never thought otherwise will be available and accessible to you because you first sought after the things of my kingdom and my righteousness.” “So I speak to your hearts today because it is vitally important what you will believe and what you will declare as truth. For many are following after deceptions, that will find themselves later looking for ways to get out of what has held them captive. So you must believe and follow by faith the course that I am leading you through and as you follow you will know and understand that my way is sure, for my course for your life is direct. These principles along these lines are simple and not complex.” “In the future days you will see troubling events that will occur and even challenge many with fear because of the uncertainty of their future. But this is the time where your faith will secure your understanding as to why so many things are now occurring. The actions and choices of nations have come up before me and the time of assessment has been determined. The circumstances that surround many nations had to do with the evil determination of a few. But also know that the majority had as much a part in it as well. It was selfishness, pride, corruption and the apathy that many people have had, for they did not care about what was going on, until the trouble came to their own door.” “In the very midst of this, I have a plan and I have a way to change the course of how this nation is going and is going to be restored in a new way on the other side of the turmoil. As you move forward know that I have called you to pray, called you to conquer, to fulfill the works of my plan. I am raising you up not to allow you to be destroyed but to be the key fulfillment of these things. For these things will not be played out in the mind of those setting the plans of this world, they have been established in the heavens and they will be come to pass according to my word.” “How will you know? You will know because I will reveal it to you in my word; and I have also written it upon the tablets of your heart. As these things will unfold you will know what to do and you will find the things that you needed the most come to pass by your faith in me, your life in me, and your walk in me. This will be a time that even in the midst of evil men setting out to implement their plans but my plans will also be carried out and within those very plans I will make ways of escape, the new ways of access, open doors and entry ways into the fulfillment of that which I have determined before the foundation of the world. So you will know that in the midst of everything you see and you witness in this hour, I have a counterplan, a way of deliverance, I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert. Whatever you will need I will provide for I will prepare the way for you in even in barrenness so that you may know that I am your God and your redeemer, says the Lord. So you must know that my plan for you is sure and it will walk you through as you follow me.” “So be diligent don’t draw back, don’t allow the atmosphere to dictate your feelings, don’t let the negativity of men’s words move you to falter. I have established a will and a way but when you hear my instructions be quick to take heed and quick to obey all of my words, which I speak to you in this hour. This is the time to not allow petty differences, nor to allow bitterness to set in and pollute your soul. Read and study my word, allow it to become a part of you, allow it to open up to you mysteries that will unlock my truths before you. Increase your capacity to receive my new life. Drink it in as new wine to purify and cleanse you. Know that the old containers that once held old religious mindsets and old stubborn ways will not be able to contain the new wine of My Spirit that will flow freely to you in this hour.” “For there will be a day that I will prepare the time for the wedding feast. In you I am saving the best wine for last. It was the beginning of a poured out life by my servants. As the wine comes forth out of water, know I will fill my vessels and they will be filled up to overflowing, with new life, new purpose and new understanding.” “Humble yourselves in a new way rending your hearts and not your garments and know I am able to line up your life so that the hour of your destiny may be realized. For even when the children of Israel were being delivered out of the land; the Egyptians were being judged. What will seem to be a way of escape to one people was the beginning of a judgment to others. I have a plan and that plan will come forth, I have a provision even in a time of famine.” “This month will be the month where you will witness me move supernaturally through your natural circumstances that you have experienced for long periods of time. You were not able to overcome but you will now breakthrough. You will know that your faith and diligence have finally brought you to the place that I had prepared for you. Look for suddenlies for they will come forth at this time. You must stay in watch & prayer mode, fasting & watching mode, and prayer & fasting mode. It will keep you alert and ready for all that will happen in this season.” “Just as seeds are planted for the harvest, what you have sown has taken root and is now bearing fruit.  This is a time when your seeds will yield their rewards. For those who have sown your time, your work, and your life for the sake of the gospel will be rewarded. Your labor of love has not been in vain for those of you who have continuously given into the kingdom work and you will see that harvest now. In fact, in this time you will begin to see the reaper overtake the sower.   Psalm 126:5,6, “They that sow in tears shall reap in joy. He that goes forth and weeps, bearing precious seed, shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him.” “Even seeds sown will reap an accelerated harvest as quick as it is sown. It is not a time to become overly excited about what you have, but it’s important that you continue to accomplish what you have been instructed to do. There are some things that will be unavoidable but begin to think differently so that you will know the proper timing of how and when to do a thing because I will be leading you and guiding you. Remember and always be reminded, that I have placed in you all that you need.” “I am about to sweep nations to judge and to dispel confusion in your midst and to restore clarity and provide cleansing. I am about to sweep over the land with my anointing to break bondages and to release a wave of evangelism to touch men’s souls that will cry out to me, says the Lord. I am reconciling all those who seek reconciliation with my life, my light, and my glory.” Isaiah 14:23 New Living Translation “I will make Babylon a desolate place of owls, filled with swamps and marshes. I will sweep the land with the broom of destruction. I, the Lord of Heaven’s Armies, have spoken!” Isaiah 44:22 “I have swept away your sins like a cloud. I have scattered your offenses like the morning mist. Oh, return to me, for I have paid the price to set you free.” Prophetic Insights The Lord began to share with me some principles that will be emphasized during this month. They were shown to me on a very simple level concerning sowing and reaping. Many times when people hear this term the first thing that they might think about is sowing financially but the emphasis here is on a totally different level. In fact in this instance sowing has to do with what we give ourselves to and what we sow our lives into instead of money.  The Lord pointed out these scriptures.  Galatians 6:4-10 “But let every man prove his own work, and then shall he have rejoicing in himself alone, and not in another. 5 For every man shall bear his own burden. 6 Let him that is taught in the word communicate unto him that teacheth in all good things. 7 Be not deceived ; God is not mocked : for whatsoever a man soweth , that shall he also reap . 8 For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting. 9 And let us not be weary in well doing : for in due season we shall reap , if we faint not. 10 As we have therefore * opportunity, let us do good unto all men, especially unto them who are of the household of faith.” We give ourselves to many things, our interests, our belief systems, our time and even levels of commitment. It is important that we begin to take heed as to what we have sown in our lives. There will always be a day that we will be ultimately accountable for the things that we chose to do, think, give into, and sow into---as there will always come times when what we have sown will produce a harvest and we will then reap the benefits or consequences of what has been sown. This principle is carried in God’s word to us individually, as family, as a people, as a nation and so on. We are in the throes of that time in this month of July. It is a time of times, when the consequences of men’s behavior, lifestyles and decisions will lead to an end result whether right or wrong. The good news is the Lord God has also made some decisions: His love for his people has been long suffering and the time now comes to deal with the issues of the day whether they will be reaped with joy or regret, by the mercies of God will always have a redemptive plan. So in spite of who we are and what we have done if we repent and humble ourselves, our Lord is faithful to forgive us of our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. But the door of that grace is narrowing and we must now make our calling and election sure. 2 Peter 1:5-11 NIV For this very reason, make every effort to add to your faith goodness; and to goodness, knowledge; and to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control, perseverance; and to perseverance, godliness; and to godliness, brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness, love. For if you possess these qualities in increasing measure, they will keep you from being ineffective and unproductive in your knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. But if anyone does not have them, he is nearsighted and blind, and has forgotten that he has been cleansed from his past sins. Therefore, my brothers, be all the more eager to make your calling and election sure. For if you do these things, you will never fall, and you will receive a rich welcome into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Prophetic Intercession I have had several dreams/visions with bombings. War plans between nations have not lifted from off my radar. Even though there are many theories as to the seriousness of possible wars, I am continuing to watch Russia and the US because no matter what may appear outwardly the undercurrent of the conflict between both nations will be revealed. I had two very vivid dreams recently: Dream #1: I was in a special meeting with authorities on seismology and they were trying to understand the various violent earthquake activity. It seemed that there had been quite a few earthquakes of high magnitudes occurring in a succession of each other. This seem to be within the US. However there were other areas that were experiencing the same activity. Dream #2: I was in a building with watchmen and intercessors and the group was discussing strategies. One of those whose appearance was angelic-like began to speak to the group and said this was a serious time to press in and not ease up in our endeavors to pray without ceasing. The angel said that many groups were assuming that other groups were taking the lead in prayer but that the productivity level was not as high as it should be. So we all recommitted to increase our prayer times and intensity. We got ready to leave the meeting and the angel who had been speaking in the meeting said to me: “Don’t be concerned----Payday is coming!” It was repeated, “Did you hear me? Payday is coming!!” ( I knew that those words had a deeper significance than money.) In prayer the Lord spoke to me about the former UN secretary general negotiations concerning peace agreements. He let me know that these agreements should be a cause for prayer. God made me aware that the one negotiating them could not be trusted. (At the time I aware of any discussions but I just recently found out about several nations discussing peace relations with Syria) Let’s be on watch and prayer mode. The Lord said, “That there will be pacts and agreements discussed and some even agreed upon but before the ink dries on the paper there would be broken promises and with no loyalties.” Special Note: Watchmen/intercessors pray around the gates around London, Washington DC, New York, The Vatican, Brussels and Paris. (see Word of the Lord for May 2012 concerning “Gates.”) Areas that are on our watch list:  Hawaii, Sumatra, Indonesia, Virginia, Philippines, Japan, Seattle, California, Chicago, The East Coast and Veracruz. Let’s continue to pray over the regions and precious people that have been affected by fires, floods, extreme heat, high winds/heavy rains and hurricanes.

Word of the Lord for June 2012 by Prophet Phyllis Ford

May 29, 2012  Prophetic Insights The Lord said that June is a month of manifestation: 1. We will see some major victories concerning the fulfillment of the Lord’s promises. 2. There will be victories as a result of arrows of strong intercession as direct blows are targeted directly to the enemy’s camp. 3. There will be some major uncovering of plans that have been set up to compromise the integrity of righteousness in our nations. 4. There are vital decisions that must be decided in the hearts of God’s people. Answers and further guidance will be given and great understanding will be released. 5. We will also see the consequences of past mistakes that placed our nation in the midst of a major crossroad. 6. We are about to see a harvest of early kingdom accomplishments in trailblazing a path for future global intercession and evangelism. This is just the beginning compared to what is about to occur on that front as it impacts many regions on different levels.   These things are all in preparation for the trouble that we are about to see take place in nations in the coming months. The timelines have been confirmed by many watchmen. We are about to see great upheaval but it will also be a time when God’s people will receive answers that could only come to them from being in the presence of the Lord and receiving an impartation of the Living Waters.   Isaiah 12:3 With joy you will draw water from the wells of salvation.   The Lord said that which we receive at the end of the month, His glory and His light (Post-Pentecost) and it should strengthen us for the coming challenges. He will anoint us to endure and help us to overcome personal hindrances that have pressed upon and wearied us in our standing against opposition in times past. That patience has yielded a greater measure of experience and that experience has become the fuel to our hope in Christ Jesus.   He said: “Take the glory and light that I have poured upon you at the end of May and which I am pouring out upon you, my people---Hold on to it—allow it to renew your life and refresh your spirit.”     John 7:37-39 In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink. He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water. (But this spake he of the Spirit, which they that believe on him should receive: for the Holy Ghost was not yet given; because that Jesus was not yet glorified.)   “There is a path that I have prepared for you that you will need to walk out as this month progresses. So embrace the faith and favor that I have released upon you in this hour, so that you may obtain the necessities required at this time.  The kind of favor that is being released is like that which was given to the children of Israel as they came out of bondage from Egypt. It is not only to get you where you need to be, but also for you to overcome whatever obstacles that might stand before you. It is my favor and grace that I have placed upon you, my people, to pass through those things that have once hindered, delayed and even tried to hold you back from making great strides. I want you to know that what you receive now, has greater significance, being released in this season, then it would have been if it was given to you before.”   “I know that your trials and hardships that you and others have suffered were filled with much uncertainty. As you tried to overcome obstacles, you felt tested beyond your measure of endurance. But know that you are coming into a greater understanding, and the awareness of necessary things that you need to accomplish. In fact, the issues in your life have changed their level of significance and importance. Know that if you are lacking direction, it is because you have not pressed in consistently to see that which is approaching. You need to understand the urgency of executing your plans and what you need worked out in this hour.”   “So call upon me, seek me in this time and you will hear me, through my word, through my voice as I speak to your heart and even through the smallest of things because I am speaking to you and making my words to you clear and succinct. It is important for you to know what to do and how to initiate my plans so you will be successful. (if you don’t allow fear and doubt to step in.) Do not allow any barrage of attack to weary you to the point that you cannot overcome.”   “Remember, I had placed in you all that you need. So press into prayer for in it you will find solace. Your greatest defense, your strength and your covering will be found on your knees.”   “My word will be your shield of faith as you believe it and your sword as you wield it. I place the sword in your hand this day as a prophetic act and say to you--go conquer, wield it in this hour. For I have given you the power to defeat, and to defend. You have the power to overthrow the works of the enemy before you. Much of the level of warfare that you have experienced has been as a result of the battles fought in heavenly realms. You will see some great victories and some sudden setbacks in the natural as this month progresses.”   “I have made you to sit in heavenly places far above all principalities and powers so as you are joined with me; greater will be your ability to overcome.  Being joined together with me is key, and be joined with your brethren, and becoming one in the unity of the Faith. So don’t shrink back but know I have placed in your life the keys to open, the keys to lock out, and keys that will obtain access into new avenues and ways of being able to move forth, to come through and conquer, says the Lord.”   Ephesians 2:4-7 But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus: That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus.   “This is the time to gather in the harvest of souls that will come in great numbers as I will establish a global move of evangelism in this hour. For I am moving on many fronts, through many nations, raising up my army of warriors strong in intercession, carrying the power of my word as I disperse them throughout the nations declaring my name. For I will blaze a trail for the righteousness of my glory, that the gospel may be echoed across the lands.”   “So hold onto the assignments that I have placed before you. Rise up in the day of my power and light which I give freely unto those who will utilize my strength to bring souls into the kingdom in this hour. Rise up and see through my eyes, the plan that I am breathing new life into for this is just the beginning. It will gain momentum even through these soon approaching troubled times. Even in times of darkness, it will grow and none will hinder its’ work and growth in this hour. Don’t allow the little foxes of petty issues and emotional limitations to restrict your ability to conquer. Don’t allow the enemy to speak fear into your life causing confusion in order to hinder your thinking and try to obstruct your faith.”   “I have given you, eyes of faith to see and a heart to receive new sight and understanding as to all that is going on around you now. You must move forward progressively and continue to do everything now. Don’t put away key things to be done for later, because time now is of the essence. It may seem new to you because you are just becoming aware of it but I have prepared my remnant to lead you out of confusion and dark areas of doubt and defeat.”   “Know that I am the fountain of living waters that I have freely provided for your life. They were given to you so that you might be cleansed, purified, refreshed and renewed in my light and glory. The problems that are upon your nation and others as well are because men have set their affections upon the idols of the world and fashioned their cup with  all the world had to offer them. Now the consequences of their choices are before them, they have no living water and the cisterns that they have hewn are insufficient. They can’t hold water.” ( Jeremiah 2:1-13).   Jeremiah 2: 11-13 Hath a nation changed their gods, which are yet no gods? but my people have changed their glory for that which doth not profit. Be astonished, O ye heavens, at this, and be horribly afraid, be ye very desolate , saith the LORD. For my people have committed two evils; they have forsaken me the fountain of living waters, and hewed them out cisterns, broken cisterns, that can hold no water.     Prophetic Intercession: Virginia has been very strong in my spirit as of late. There is a divine purpose and a divine brooding over that area right now—so intercessors and watchmen cover the entire state and decree that the work of God will not only be carefully strategized but also be fulfilled in this time. I believe that Virginia has key connection concerning the trouble coming upon the east coast. Pray also that the enemy will not retaliate against that region.   I had an unusual vision/dream about a changing of the earth’s atmosphere as we know it---that there was some kind of phenomenon that caused a type of magnetic storm that set off an uptick of extreme climate changes and earthquakes were set off at an alarming rate. I heard the words that there was something going on in the earth’s atmosphere “causing major shifting in plates and polar caps.”   Areas that are on our watch list: These are regions that are on our watch list: Hawaii, Sumatra, Indonesia, Virginia, Philippines, Japan, Seattle, California, and The East Coast.   Continue to pray around the strong warlike atmosphere—within and outside our borders. Iraq & Iran, Russia—North Korea are on our watch list as we continue to pray for Israel. Pray around upheaval within leadership, even a surprise uncovering concerning the nation’s leaders in the European regions, but especially in Russia.

Word of the Lord for May 2012 by Prophet Phyllis Ford

April 30, 2012           Prophetic Insights As I stayed in a place of prayer and study before the presence of the Lord concerning His word for May and the state of things in this hour: I received visions and utterances and I would like to share them as they occurred because I believe the order of things and how the Lord states particular things are important. I pray that you will receive further insight on the time that we are in and act according to the instructions that the Lord gives you. I have a vision of “gates” that were very elaborate in design and beautiful in the iron work that made them and they were opening and the light was very bright. I also saw other gates that seem to look very different and I even wondered if they varied in purpose. But in the midst of the vision I heard the Lord say: I am opening my gates and I am shaking the gates. In scripture gates are positioned in the entry way of cities or provinces and even in intercession they mark a strong significance to a region or area. Gates represent boundaries and authority within certain places. Gates can represent government (spiritual &  natural), ministry as well as many other meanings. The elders of the city/regions sat at the gate.  Gates can also be used for security measures of protection. I was intrigued by the statement, “I am opening my gates and I am shaking the gates.” I knew in my spirit that the statement was about two distinctively different gates. Then the Lord spoke to me concerning the gates. “My gates are before you and I will open before you new ways, even new courses of how you need to move forth and what you need to do. Gates are highly significant in this season—as major decisions and a representation of a place or region and many matters are determined in the gates. Some gates will be broken never to be repaired again. Others gates will be restored but only as boundaries, and entryways to certain places. New gates will be established as new regimes will be coming forth, some for good and for some evil. Know that I am shaking the gates of men along with their evil plots and purposes. And know that when they thought that their gates were secure, they will find chaos and confusion. Where they thought they would have the advantage there will be uncertainty, for I am shaking the gates and foundations of men. The one who is positioned at the gate will determine the fate of certain regions. The men that will be positioned at the gates will reveal to you many things. This may seem to appear as a mystery but in these next four months, you will have a clearer understanding of what I am saying to you in this hour. Also know that at my gate you will see my glory and it will provide you access into places you would never be able to attain other than through me.  My strength, my light and my word will lead and help you maneuver through trouble areas.”  Isaiah 45: 1-3 “Thus says the LORD to his anointed, to Cyrus, whose right hand I have holden, to subdue nations before him; and I will loose the loins of kings, to open before him the two leaved gates; and the gates shall not be shut, I will go before thee, and make the crooked places straight: I will break in pieces the gates of brass, and cut in sunder the bars of iron:  And I will give thee the treasures of darkness, and hidden riches of secret places, that thou may know that I, the LORD, which call thee by thy name, am the God of Israel.” Genesis 22:17 “That in blessing I will bless thee, and in multiplying I will multiply thy seed as the stars of the heaven, and as the sand which is upon the sea shore; and thy seed shall possess the gate of his enemies.” Several days after that I had a dream:  I saw this man with a small green snake and he was instructing others on how to handle the snake. He was encouraging others to hold it but as others watched (in fear and amazement) (I didn’t feel good about this situation but I watched very carefully.) All of a sudden a huge snake jumped up out of nowhere and bit a person’s neck. Everyone was startled. As I prayed about this the Lord told me that the spirit of Python (a spirit of divination as defined in Acts 16:16) was trying to weary the people of God and to drain them of strength---to lure, distract and then strike where it could. (Read about the spirit of Python through this link on our website.)   http://www.carpenterstouch.org/gpage8.html
