Back in 1999, Steve Shultz of The Elijah List promoted an event that had New Apostolic Reformation Apostles and Prophets heavily advocating their doomsday cult movement. Apostles included, C. Peter Wagner, Paul Cain, Chuck Pierce, Cindy Jacobs, Bill Hamon, Dutch Sheets, Rick Joyner, Kingsley Fletcher, Mike Bickle, Jim Laffoon, Barbara Wentroble and Ted Haggard.

Shultz published what he called “Eyewitness Reports”. Accessing three articles, we highlight how all of these Apostles are fully aware of the New Apostolic Reformation (NAR), what they were involved in and what they were to advocate as leading NAR Apostles and Prophets. 

It is important to observe that ‘Anita’ (in part 3) noted Wagner openly talking about the New Apostolic Reformation and apostolic governance. NAR Apostle Dutch Sheets also attempted to recruit people at this event to “volunteer for God’s Army’, threatening them that if they refused to volunteer that God will draft them, “and it will be painful.”

What makes this article fascinating is the mindset of the NARpostles back in 1999. They are extremely superstitious, into omen readings, fearful of events (like the Y2K bug and terrorism) and completely obsessed with their apostolic strategies, prophecies and future direction of the church. Their language and concepts all reinforce the false gospel, eschatology, pneumatology and basileology of the New Apostolic Reformation. Titles such as ‘Third Day Church’ and concepts regarding the Jordan River all portray these leaders as Joshua’s (Apostles) leading the ‘church’ into the ‘promised land’, to further their idea of what the kingdom of God is in society.

These articles from eyewitnesses, published on the ElijahList, prove that Mike Bickle, who is involved in this movement and its leaders, is a deceiver. You can read his denial of being involved with the NAR here:

Michael Brown’s friend Mike Bickle acknowledges NAR; lies about iHOP’s involvement; rejects NAR TPT Bible

So why was this event so important to all those gathered?

According to eyewitnesses, “The central theme of the conference was that the office of apostle is now being firmly established putting the God-ordained government of the church in place for the first time since the early days of the initial believers of the first 300 years.”

People were convinced at this event that (emphasis added),

“The church was awakened to evangelism, prophetic, and now the apostolic. All are called to work together under the apostle in each body of believers, especially prophet to apostle, (as a watchman to a king). The prophet will bring prophecies to the pastor (apostle), and the pastor has the final say on what to do with it. The Light grows brighter as the pieces are in place for world revival (and world persecution and hatred of Christians) such as has never been seen before.”

Notice that the pastor can be the apostle in their double-speak and how they connect the prophet to the Old Testament ‘watchman’ and the pastor/apostle to a ‘king’. This cannot be missed when dealing with these cult-leaders. They will often convey their positions of authority in the church as though they are in divinely appointed king-like authorities. They twist phrases like “touch not God’s anointed” – King Saul was not to be touched because he was anointed by God, thus none should question the apostle/pastor such as Benny Hinn, Creflo Dollar, Kenneth Copeland and others.

Furthermore, just as we see with Dr. Michael Brown’s eschatology, these apostles believe in the doomsday cult prophecies of the New Order of the Latter Rain end-times revival/awakening. The above quote highlights their belief in a 50/50 polarization of good and evil. The church will awaken when their Apostles and Prophets take their place and the New Breed manifest as ‘gods’ to judge the wicked.

It’s also important to note that an eyewitness reported the following,

“Many taught out of Joshua 3 & likened the Church to being mid-stream in the “transition” across the Jordan into the “harvest field”.“

It is important to stress again that NARpostles are often called ‘General’ and ‘Joshua’ to lead the church into the ‘Promised Land’. The second baptism is often used as symbolic of crossing the Jordan while ‘Joshuas’ lead the church to war taking the cities and nations for God.

You can see this overtly expressed in article 3 where ‘Anita’ notes, “The Jordan speaks of death — the Apostolic is holding water back for God’s people to cross over the river. Many things are dying — old ways, practices, etc.” The ‘old ways’ are denominations and orthodox Christianity itself. These NAR leaders are claiming that God Himself is redefining the church – what they call the ‘New Wine Skin’. This is all code talk to advocate for the Dominionist heresy. The fact that “many taught” on this is an indictment on those who deny that the NAR is dominionist.

Don’t forget that Apostle Dutch Sheets really took the dominionist agenda of the NAR personally suggesting they were going to take over the churches of America and the entire nation.

It was also Rick Joyner back in 1999 with his book ‘The Final Quest’ calling for those in the NAR to ‘massacre’ Christians who did not join their army of end-time warriors. The Jim Jones-like fanaticism of these people is frightening, the film ‘Jesus Camp’ showing a glimpse how they were brainwashing children to embrace these NAR apostles and prophets without questioning them.

This is the danger of the NAR, you cannot question these superstitious Apostles and Prophets who claim they are leading Christians to take over the world – and they are not just a threat to Christians but to entire countries.

Here are the full accounts by various witnesses of these NAR events that you can read on the ElijahList.

EYEWITNESS REPORT #1 – NATIONAL SCHOOL OF PROPHETS

From Last week’s National School of the Prophets: Mobilizing the Prophetic Office for the Next Century January 28 -30, 1999 (Colorado Springs, Colorado) Speakers included: C. Peter Wagner, Paul Cain, Chuck Pierce, Cindy Jacobs, Bill Hamon, Dutch Sheets, Rick Joyner, Kingsley Fletcher, Mike Bickle, Jim Laffoon, Barbara Wentroble and Ted Haggard.
——————————————

From: Meredith L Reynolds <ml-reynolds@juno.com></ml-reynolds@juno.com>

Here’s a brief overview of the incredible conference I attended last week

(Nat’l. School of the Prophets) at New Life Church. It was literally that – God drew all the recognized prophets in our nation together so that He could speak to them (& us) about national issues, among other things. Some of the speakers included – Paul Cain, Rick Joyner, Cindy Jacobs, Dutch Sheets, Mike Bickle, Chuck Pierce, Bill Hamon, Ted Haggard & Barbara Wentroble.

APOSTOLIC GOVERNMENT

Much was said about the coming change is Church leadership & the return to an apostolic government. This was balanced by showing the inter-dependence of the prophetic & apostolic, as well as the other 3 offices. Being the “third day” Church, with new identity & glory. Rick J. had a great message on lawlessness & it’s prevalence in the Church. Lawlessness is the #1 attack on love & God’s greatest commandment to us – many could be caught off guard in it. Several taught on the prophetic/apostolic – it’s characteristics, role & what God looks for. Many taught out of Joshua 3 & likened the Church to being mid-stream in the “transition” across the Jordan into the “harvest field”. The role of the leaders in seeing that everyone makes it across while keeping the “ark” of God’s presence before us. Importance of the harvest & the nations.

IT’S THE GOSPEL THAT’S IMPORTANT

Paul Cain reminded us not to forget that the Gospel is the POWER of God, & in all our growth we must not forget this. Signs follow the gospel. Mike B. shared on intimacy with Jesus & our identity as the Bride. Having the quality of “lovesickness” that leads to extravagant obedience out of love, not work. Ted H. was the token “pastor” voice & gave a very balanced teaching on how to be a wise prophet in your church. Both Thurs. & Fri. nights God really used Cindy J. to lead us in intercession. The first night, she invited us to receive the grace of God before she shared the revelations God had given them. She sited Ez.43:1-2 showing how God had for the first time in history, brought together the different “streams” of the prophetic voices to form the “many waters” at this conference. Acts 13 – the Church in Antioch was where God brought together many different men & gifts. The prophetic leaders all came forward & stood with Cindy as she shared what God had spoken to them concerning the coming judgements of America.

JUDGMENTS ON AMERICA – East Coast Emphasis

It was VERY heavy & foretold many disasters – bombings targeting children, an alliance with Communism & Islam which would bring war & terrorism to our shores, particularly the east coast. We prayed a long time for the Atlantic sea-board states & also Chicago. Cindy also challenged us that we could not properly intercede because of bitterness (& other sins) that were polluting the prophetic “streams”. We had an intense time of intercession & repentance for the nation. People were called forward who were guilty of sexual sin, etc. Application time for the lawlessness message. As we were interceding for the nation, people came forward who were relatives of the founding fathers & began interceding for the restoration of righteousness.

NATIVE AMERICAN RECONCILIATION

Also, the native Americans came forward for a time of reconciliation & restorative intercession. Needless to say, it was intense & incredible! Towards the end of the meeting, Cindy shared that God had impressed on her that IF we (& the whole Body of Christ) continue to repent & intercede, He would lessen the judgements, but that it could not be completely averted. It can be down-scaled to a “spanking” rather than destruction IF … our personal responsibility was very clear. Many felt that there is a window of time in 1999 where our actions will determine God’s.

Y2K – BIG BUT NOT THAT BIG –BUT WILL EXPOSE OUR INDEPENDENCE

Y2K was not the big deal, but would expose our independence & would be overshadowed by what else is to come, but to be prepared. Some seasons in 1999 of trouble – economic in Oct. Friday night was another intense time – again, more intercession for the nation & repentance. God moved Cindy into a realm she had never been in before in the Spirit & she was barely able to talk. She was given visions of warring angels we were to call forth to fight for America & how long they had been waiting to be summoned. She saw God deal death blows to Mormonism in Utah, Masonic roots in DC, “entertainment spirits” in New Orleans & Hollywood, & also touching Las Vegas. There was much more that I cannot recount – it was very anointed & much travail went on. Fri. & Saturday am we had corporate prayer times that continued on in these veins. A real call to war. Sat. afternoon we were all given opportunity for prayer & impartation by the prophetic presbytery. The whole time was equipping & informative, yet very sobering. Great is God’s mercy & power. Hope that helps give you a brief glimpse – it was awesome!! Meredith Reynolds

OFFICE OF APOSTLE

The central theme of the conference was that the office of apostle is now being firmly established putting the God-ordained government of the church in place for the first time since the early days of the initial believers of the first 300 years. The church was awakened to evangelism, prophetic, and now the apostolic. All are called to work together under the apostle in each body of believers, especially prophet to apostle, (as a watchman to a king). The prophet will bring prophecies to the pastor (apostle), and the pastor has the final say on what to do with it. The Light grows brighter as the pieces are in place for world revival (and world persecution and hatred of Christians) such as has never been seen before.

RICK JOYNER — LAWLESSNESS

Rick Joyner made an impassioned plea and prophecy for repentance, seeking holiness, coming against lawlessness as the window of grace will soon be closed this year as we enter into the final phases of the last days.

Mike Bickle nailed the picture prophecy of Jesus as a love-sick Bridegroom anticipating the preparing of the pure and spotless Bride so vividly that most present (including me) were left limp in our longing for His coming with sobbing and tears streaming down our faces.

COMMUNISM AND ISLAM – AN UNHOLY ALLIANCE

Cindy Jacobs, with much trembling before God’ s majesty, delivered the corporate prophecy that was given to the prophets as they all met together several days earlier. It concerned an unholy alliance between communism and two major Islamic countries which will wage war against “the west”, and many other things that will happen during the coming short times. Maybe someone has a transcript and can post it.

NATIONAL WAKE-UP CALL FOR THE CHURCH

From: Janet Davis: philip310@juno.com

This past weekend in Colorado Springs was a national wake-up called to the Church. Cindy Jacobs commented several times that she keeps hearing about this body of sin. Encapsulated message is that the body of Christ has left their first love. We have settled for the inferior pleasures of sin, instead of the superior pleasures of God. We need to become again a love-sick bride whose heart is enflamed, and captivated by the bridegroom. A love-sick heart that is fascinated with the Lord, will be extravagant in all other commandments! When the first commandment is restored to first place it will unlock the dynamic in us! We have a greater inheritance than mandatory obedience, that is voluntary lovers!! A person in love will double what is asked, but a church that is not fascinated with the Lord is vulnerable. The church has become vulnerable and the stream has become polluted. We have picked up stones (he who is without sin cast the first stone), and we’re killing the body!! Throw down your stones! A word came through Cindy that we have been casting stones at the Mormons. Calling them a cult, and never praying that the veil of deception would be lifted from their eyes! We’ve cast stones. To those entangled in sexual sins, we’ve not prayed but cast stones. At the president, we’ve cast stones……. Throw down your stones!!!

LORD MORE DISAPPOINTED WITH THE CHURCH THAN THE PRESIDENT

Dutch Sheets said that the Lord told him that He was far more disappointed with the church than the president. That He had put a man in office whose heart could have gone either way and if the church would have prayed we could have a spirit-filled Christian president in office right now! This alone would bring judgement to this nation. William Jefferson Clinton needs our prayers and we must cry out for forgiveness for not praying for him and his wife and daughter.

This year is a window and will determine which way this nation will go in coming years. God always responds to what His people are doing and we must cry out for true repentance. Lord teach us to repent we don’t know how!!! It’s time for revival and the word came that it would hit the eastern-sea board, and criss-cross across the nation.

Dutch said it’s time for a passion and holy zeal of God that says no more business as usual!! What we’ve been doing is not enough! We’ve all cried out for more of the anointing, more of the presence of God, but what we get away with in the outer-courts will get us killed in the holy place. It’s time for radical holiness!! The level that we’ve been hearing God at, has to increase if we are going to survive what’s coming. We haven’t time to do good things any more, they have to be God things! God breathed, God anointed…… whether it’s a breathe-mint ministry or prophet to the nations everyone has to be focused on the Lord Jesus, seeking to be a servant of all. Lord forgive us for wasting steps, and let us do whatever it takes to redeem the time!

Lord, let the prophetic voice as Ezek. of old cry out in this hour….. Come from the four winds, O breathe, and breathe on these slain, that they may live. … that they may live and stand to their feet an exceedingly great army!!!!

Vic and I got to go! It was very different from other conferences I’ve been to. They did stress the rise of “teams”, esp. prophetic and apostolic. Y2K paled in light of what is to follow if we as a church do not repent. If God were to judge Clinton according to our standards, and take him out of office, then to be fair, He’d have to remove most of us out of ours! The church has so many “stones” in our hands, against others, saved and unsaved, that we can’t receive info. from the Lord.

HEAVY ANGELIC ACTIVITY AND OCTOBER DEADLINE

The most profound was Dutch Sheets on Fri, night. HEAVY angelic activity, many of the prophets and intercessors spoke. We have until the end of this year, (Jewish-October) to determine what will happen in this nation in the next 3 and a half. It is a very time-sensitive message that needs to get out. It makes known much of what is required of us. We bought the video and second cassette tape, and have been showing it to our friends (30 so far). It was very long and took up two tapes, but they only did the one video. So you’d have to get the second tape to finish the message. The video is helpful as you’d miss so much without the visual.

VIDEO IS AVAILABLE

They can be purchased through Fresh Audio and Video, 1-800-687-6077 and the number of Dutch’s tape was, #9901297P. I am going to continue showing this until it has hit everyone I know. This is not just informational, it is a commissioning, a charge, an incredible impartation, and an imperative equipping. I hope to God we are never the same, and I pray, for the sake of our country, this message spreads. Y2K may be an issue to some degree, but if we do not catch the bigger picture, Y2K is nothing but a distraction. Y2K is a hiccup compared to what could happen if we do not move into action now. This video has our instructions.

Prophets Summit, World Prayer Center, Colorado Springs, CO
January 27/99

Important: these represent some notes I took during a phone conversation with a friend who had just returned from the Summit. I cannot vouch for accuracy (my recollection), but the flavor is definitely right.

IT’S CRISIS INTERCESSION WE NEED NOW!

Operative words used to describe Summit: Crisis Intercession!!

A twelve hour council was held with the Lord, at His instructions. Conducted behind closed doors, the council consisted of 16 leading prophets including: Bill Hamon, Chuck Pierce, Peter Wagner, Cindy Jacobs, Dutch Sheets, Rick Joyner, Jim LaSula, Mike Bickle, Paul Cain and others.

A statement was the prepared, representing what all 16 prophets totally agreed was the Word of the Lord for 1999. Here are some of the points:

MUSLIM/COMMUNIST CHINA ALLIANCE

Muslim/Communist (China) alliance rapidly emerging pending war on North America…the most ferocious army in human history! Many of our children to be slain! Y2K will pale in comparison to events of late 1999 and early 2000, particularly in areas of earth changes. Y2K will be a door to open a sequence of other events (military?).

NO FEAR WITH Y2K – BUT IT WILL HAVE REGIONAL EFFECTS

The church should pray as individuals re: Y2K and prepare accordingly but absolutely not to hoard or operate in fear. Our position should be to provide. Y2K to have regional effects.

Terrorism on North American soil. Very important that we pray individually and walk with God daily for protection as to where and where not to be.

Again stressed not to fear.

EAST COAST DISASTERS AND EAST COAST REVIVALS

East Coast said to light up. The indication was both the glory and a potential disaster.. (judgement?).

LORD DISPLEASED WITH THE CHURCH WITH ALL OUR ROCK THROWING – AT THE PRESIDENT, THE U.S. AND EACH OTHER !

The Lord very displeased with the Church’s throwing rocks attitude…at each other, the President of the US etc. The Lord called the current church a body of sin and indicated that judgement was coming back, one of the reasons being our reluctance to provide prayer cover for Bill Clinton. Our judgment of him was coming back on us. The Lord is tired of the church engaging in pornography (i.e.: adult rated movies) etc. Cindy Jacobs had an open vision in which she saw an angel. It was the identical angel to the one she saw when revival broke out in Argentina. She then saw another angel.

SAME ANGEL SENT TO WARN GERMANY NOW WARNS US!

When she asked the Lord, He said it was the same angel who was sent to warn the Germans that Hitler was to take over the country and they refused the warning.

EITHER GLORY OR JUDGMENT IN 1999

Chuck Pierce said that 1999 is a pivotal year. Either Glory or judgment will befall the church in one degree or another depending on what we do. We are instructed to repent, pray and intercede.

Each month of this year the window closes. By June it will be half way closed. By October it will almost be too late and effects will be apparent.

Paul Cain’s message was simple. Get back to the basic Gospel, which is the power of God. Jesus, the Son of God, born of the virgin Mary, crucified for our sins and raised from the dead!

In closing, the key words used were: CRISIS INTERCESSION!
———————————————————-

Date: Wednesday, February 03, 1999 Subject: World Prayer Center Prophetic Conference!

(This was forwarded to Leslie)

Leslie Douglas Leslie.Douglas@mail.sprint.com

Hello! All friends and intercessors! I am back home from the National School of Prophet conference at the World Prayer Center, Colorado Springs, January 27 to 30th, l999. 3000 people attended the conference from everywhere. It was a different sort of conference – very confrontive from God to His people. I am still working on what I heard. Basically, God showed up Himself and spoke to a group of seasoned prophets – Chuck Pierce, Cyndi Jacobs, Dutch Sheets, Jim Laffoon, Barbara Wentrouble, Bill Hamon, Jim Goll, John and Paula Sandford, Peter Wagner, Bobbye Byerly – who met together to pray before the conference started. We had a session with Cindy Jacobs and another one with Dutch Sheets who talked to us about what God wanted us to know concerning the judgment He was bringing to this country from the end of this year onward.

Y2K IS A CATALYST

Y2K is just a catalyst for what is coming: the rising up of Communism and Islam as a combined force against this nation. But God wanted us to know that there is still a small window of grace if His people pray. The key word is IF His people pray. God instructed that the key months to pray for the nation are February, then April, then July, for by October, the window would be just about closed.

 PRAY FOR EAST COAST, WASHINGTON D.C. MORMONS, PROSTITUTES, THOSE IN POLITICAL OFFICE IN D.C.

Pray for the eastern seaboard, all along the east coast, and Washington D.C. for that is what the prophets were getting as being where the attack would come upon – terrorists acts…Pray for those we Christians write-off – the Mormons in Salt Lake City, the prostitutes in Las Vegas, and most of all, those in office in Washington D.C. God is asking us to pray intensely for them. This is also the year of seriously checking areas of our own lives that we need to clean up before Him – pornography, secret sins, pride and judging others. God seems angry with His church for not praying for Clinton when He sent word through His prophets several years ago that we the Church must pray for our presidents because he could move towards God at that point if we pray or he could move towards evil if we did not uphold him in prayer as He has asked us to do. I definitely remember hearing Paul Cain say this three years ago in Kansas City.

IF GOD’S PEOPLE WILL ONLY PRAY . . . .

Also, now God is saying to us: If His people pray, then catastrophe of major proportions may be averted or softened down, but the discipline is still going to happen. That can not be averted. However, revival is coming this year. It is time. God is going to do major acts that will bring many into the Kingdom. If we pray, Washington D.C. will be another city where revival hits. The youth in Salt Lake City will become His. We will see that the youth of this country, children to college age, will be the ones whose prayers will rise up to heaven in such a powerful way. One prophet saw a stadium packed full of youth. It was an open vision. He saw that with one accord, as if they all heard something, they dispersed to all areas of this nation, carrying the fire of God with them. Through them many parts of this country will be lit up with the fire of God. If His people do not pray this year, then what the prophets saw was the coming of war. Our youth and children will be the ones that will be hit by the war. This is not a Biblical event. This is what Satan plans to do. We are to pray for our cities, our lands. We are to pray against the plans of Satan – terrorism and the rise of Islam-Communism as an alliance. When l999 came around, I got the word “Be a house of prayer”. So I told our kinship group at our house that God is calling us into serious praying. I also got the word to fly higher as an eagle in the area of faith and obedience. I had a sense that He is saying to us that for us to survive even, we have got to live by absolute faith and obedience to Him. I also saw that we are to go deep into Him much like an animal tunneling deep into earth to curl up and go to sleep when danger is above the ground. I knew that He was saying to us – you’ve got to go deep, deep into Me now, deep in prayer, deep in the knowledge of my Personhood, deep in this love relationship with Me. You can’t really fly higher in faith and obedience unless you know Me better and love Me more. Your strength comes from your love relationship with Me. It’s got to be more intense between us. More passion. More knowing Who I am. What I heard at the conference from this panel of very reliable prophets confirmed my sense for this year. I just wasn’t ready to hear about the seriousness of the situation, the urgency of the time, the part of God that I wasn’t that well acquainted with – the God of judgment. I admit I am fearful. But several prophets said in firm, firm voices – fear is not part of who we are in Jesus Christ. Get rid of fear. When those who do not know Him see how we have peace in Jesus in the midst of trouble, then they will want to have Jesus. I am afraid that I see that my faith in Him is not strong enough. I also don’t know Him enough. My heart’s yearning is to know Him more and to be able to rest in Him more. I want to be a house of prayer. That is my yearning. I want Him to deposit His prayers in me so that I can pray back to Him His prayers.

“GRACE, GRACE”

Cyndi Jacob, an important prophet raised up by God for such a time as this, began her talk by confirming to us God’s intense love for us, and that He has so much grace for us. She kept saying, “Grace! Grace!” I really felt in my spirit that which she said concerning grace. The word grace was like oil and balm for my spirit. I have experienced so much grace from God in so many areas of my life in the last few years that I do know that word “grace”.

In His Name,
Jean

Notes/Brief Summary of National School of the Prophets, January, 1999

1999 – The year that determines the future of the nation, the church, our own personal walk – choose wisely and live the choice in integrity and according to God’s word and plan.

THRU OCTOBER, 1999 – A WINDOW OF GRACE

Through Oct., 1999 a window of grace – will it be judgment or repentance?

Time for the Apostles and Prophets to “get hitched” so they can begin to bring unity and harmony as they “pull the load” and be about equipping the saints. Must have true relationship based on trust, love and forgiveness. The Word of the Lord is going to come with God’s creative power to enable to Word to be heard and lived – The Prophetic Gospel – preach it and live it.

WE MUST FOLLOW THE MOVE OF GOD

Must follow the move of God – not have God follow our move. Several teachers brought a word from Joshua chapter 3 as the key book for the church. A time of transition, preparation, separation and then the suddenlies – when God will do AMAZING things.

We must pray and keep our eyes on Jesus. PUT THE FIRST COMMANDMENT FIRST.

LAWLESSNESS REBUKED BY THE LORD

Lawlessness in the church and the land was rebuked by the Lord. Repent and obey instantly. Cover our leaders with prayer – in the church and in the land. Crisis Intercession – a Call to War and Strategic Prayer as the “Window of Grace” narrows through October.

PRAY FOR WASHINGTON D.C., EAST COAST, MORMONS, SALT LAKE CITY, CHICAGO, NEW ORLEANS, ETC — ESPECIALLY PRESIDENT CLINTON AND HIS FAMILY

Focus prayers on – Washington D.C., Eastern Seaboard states, Mormons and Salt Lake City, Chicago, New Orleans, the Foundations of our Nation, Government leaders – ESPECIALLY PRESIDENT CLINTON AND HIS FAMILY.

Time for the Third Day Church to rise up (See Joshua 1-3 Hosea 6:1-3; Esther 5:1; Gen 1:11-13; John 2) with a passion for Jesus spreading to all nations showing forth His glory to the ends of the earth. BRIDE – make yourself ready as a call for the Return of the Bridegroom.

End of notes by Patty Paquette

The following VISION is what I saw from the Lord during the worship of the evening session on Thursday, January 28, 1999:

As we were singing songs about the glory of the Lord and the Holy Spirit, I began to feel such peace and grace flow down upon me from the Throne of God. I was just enjoying His presence when the Lord said, “Come up here.” He wanted to show me His glory over all the earth. The rest of my experience was from two vantage points…I was up with Him looking down on all He showed and I was part of the experience of the congregation we were looking at…experiencing both sensations at the same time.

As the people sang, there began to move over the top of us, as it were, a river of milky white. As our worship continued it increased in depth and began to ripple tiny wavelike ripples over us and extending as it moved to cover the surface of the whole earth. And as the people entered into high praise and singing in the spirit, and as we began to sing a song “Holy Spirit Rain Down,” this glory moved over and over the earth. It now looked like a canopy of white feathers that were moving and seemed to be lifted up on the hands and praises of the people here. The brightness grew in intensity as well.

Then the Holy Spirit came as a dove. He was many times the size of the earth and with His right wing He gathered up the glory canopy which was now like His brilliant white feathers. The glory and His people had become one and so as He gathered us up we all came together as a ball. He scooped up the “ball of His glory and His people, growing ever brighter” and tucked it /us under His wing and began to fly off.

The worship team then began to sing “The whole earth is full of His glory.”

(As Cindy Jacobs came to teach, she prayed about the peace and grace of God. Then she said that for the evening we were going to look down from our place seated in the heavenlies and that God is saying, “Come up Higher.” And “Come away, My beloved.”)

EYEWITNESS ACCOUNT . . . .

From: Kit H Hackett ywamoutpost@juno.com] Sent: Thursday, February 04,

A SERIOUS CONFERENCE!

Wow!! What a time. It’s the best of times and the worst of times. I don’t even know how to share except just to jump in and give you highlights. It was the most serious conference I’ve been to and the most exciting. There were over a dozen prophets that got together to fast and pray the day prior for our nation and what God wanted to say. It’s very serious.

Cindy Jacobs gave the word the first night of the conference. She first asked God to give us great grace and favor to receive the difficult word. They agreed to hold some of what God showed them back. They didn’t think we could handle all of it. Anyway it goes something like this:

COMMUNISM AND ISLAM ALLIANCE

There will be an alliance formed between Communism and Islam nations and it will be more evil than anything we’ve ever known. The Europeans will cry for us to intercede for them and we’ll cry out to them to intercede for us. Many of our men and women will die on our soil. Y2K will pale in comparison.

Y2K JUST THE BEGINNING

Y2K will be just the beginning. It will be like the tower of Babel where communication will be cut off. Shaking will come like a domino effect after that. The East coast will be hit first. It will be like the Titanic. We’ll not be ready. There will be Islamic terrorist attacks that will hit our children. School buses and shopping malls will be targets.

ASK GOD ABOUT CITIES OF REFUGE — ECONOMY OK UNTIL END OF SEPTEMBER, 1999

Regarding Y2K, we must seek God for cities of refuge. Some will be hit harder then others. 1999 is a year of heaping up. The economy will be okay until the end of September. If we store up just for ourselves it will sift out like sand. We must help the neighborhood.

GOD IS NOT PLEASED THAT WE (AS A WHOLE CHURCH) HAVE NOT INTERCEDED FOR CLINTON. –WE DON’T KNOW THE WARFARE THAT’S BEEN SET AGAINST THAT OFFICE!!

This year is the last year we have to intercede. If we humble ourselves before God, repent, cry out for holiness, and intercede on behalf of our nation, God will withhold some of the destruction. He will spank America. If we pray we will still be spanked but not destroyed. God is angry at the church for not interceding for Clinton. He placed him in office and if the church would have prayed he could have gone the opposite way of what he did. He said if a solid Christian man had been in the office and we hadn’t prayed the results would have been similar. We have no idea the warfare that’s come against the office. There is a window in Feb, April, July and October where we need to seriously fast, pray and intercede. We are going to war in the spiritual realm like never before.

FREEMASONS

This war is not one of the battles mentioned in the Bible. It is a plan of satan and is being led against the East coast because the 1st thirteen colonies is where Christianity was established in the nation. It’s also where free masonry came in. Paul Revere and the North church were free masons. The high witch of Salem, Mass. worshiped the same gods that the free masons worship. We need to pray to pull down the freemason spirits over the nation.

IF WE PRAY, GOD WILL MOVE

The second night Dutch Sheets shared that if we pray God will send revival on our nation along with the spanking like we’ve never before seen. It will spread throughout our country and into Mexico and Canada. The supernatural gifts will move in power like we’ve never seen.

After he spoke he called the prophets up and had them lead us in intercession. Cindy led and saw angels out over the borders of our country. She had Bill Hamon call them forth into our midst to give us the battle plans. They were unable to give us the plans because of the pollution in the prophetic stream.

PUT DOWN THE STONES

We have to repent of our attitudes and the stones we want to throw. One of them was at the president, another towards Mormons, and then prostitutes, etc. We are supposed to be praying for them instead of being judgmental. We had to throw down the stones. The Lord took Cindy into a spiritual realm where she’s never been before. She was frightened and could barely talk at times. It was a very holy place. He showed her the destruction and she was crying and said we’ve never experienced this kind of destruction and don’t have a clue. He showed her the same angel that came to give us the warning to pray is the same angel that was sent to Germany to pray against the holocaust, and they didn’t pray. If we don’t pray we will have blood on our hands not only for our country but another massacre of the Jews. She also was shown that if we pray that God will clean out the White House, the Senate and destroy the National Monument and the square that represents Freemasonry. He is going to destroy Las Vegas. She asked Him about Mardi Gras. He said the reason we’ve never been able to come against it is because it’s the spirit of entertainment that’s over it and the church is under that. She said we need to stop watching R rated movies and putting TV and movies, etc., ahead of prayer. We need to be more careful what we watch.

There was so much, and I know I’ve just touched the surface. I think this represents the bulk of it and the seriousness of it. I know it was a life changing conference. I’m praying more since I’ve been back and asking God for the gift of crisis intercession. He told us when we were called to repentance that we didn’t know how to repent. That’s so true. I wept all the way to church Sunday and all the way through. Thank God for the gift of repentance. I realize more than ever that it’s a gift.

GOD IS DISPATCHING ANGELS

The other thing I’ve heard is that this is the year when God will be dispatching his angels to mark the foreheads of those who weep and mourn for the abominations in the nation. It’s in Ezekiel.

Let me know if you have any questions or what God’s been telling you.

Love,
Kathleen

Conference Note from Steve Shultz, Publisher, THE ELIJAH LIST

I want to expend a HUGE thank you to Anita at: Gosb2@aol.com She took a gigantic amount of time (I can tell) to transcribe her notes from this conference for the benefit of many. She has been the most thorough person writing to me, not only what she heard, but how it affected her (in many cases) and even including some bio information on each speaker. Anita, a hearty THANK YOU!

This entire report was sent to me by: ANITA You may write to her at: Gosb2@aol.com
PETER WAGNER — The moderator of the conference — Dr. Wagner is the founding president of Global Harvest Ministries, focusing prayer on world evangelism. He is coordinator for the AD2000 United Prayer Track. He is also cofounder of the World Prayer Center and Cofounder and president of the Wagner Institute for Practical Ministry and chancellor of Wagner Leadership Institute.

HITCHING PROPHETS TO APOSTLES – LIKE A HORSE TEAM POWERFULLY PULLING TOGETHER, PROPHETS & APOSTLES CAN CHANGE THE WORLD!

1. Church government is the harness — the strongest apostle needs a harness. For the first time since the early church, church government is in place (Eph. 4:11). The New Apostolic Reformation is the most radical way of doing church since the Protestant Reformation.

2. Apostles are crucial. A. Vertical Apostle — Heads an apostolic network. B. Horizontal Apostle – Anointing to mobilize apostles, but no network. C. Hyphenated Apostle – Teacher-Apostle, Pastor-Apostle, Prophet-Apostle, etc. D. Marketplace Apostle — Under the church covering, but they work in the marketplace.

3. Prophets are crucial — Prophets are hitched to an Apostle.

4. How the Apostolic teams are beneficial when hitched together.
A. Prophet submits to the Apostle – Ephesians 4:21
B. God speaks to the Prophet – Amos 3:7
C. Prophet speaks to the Apostle.
D. The Apostle judges, evaluates, strategies & executes the Word.
E. The Prophet submits to the Apostle. Two major models:
1) Paul & Silas – ongoing relationship, covenanted together.
2) Paul & Agabus – tied together for a period of time.

5. Execution – He gave examples from his personal life.
Corporate Intimacy results in the birth of Corporate Vision.

BILL HAMON — The founder and Bishop of Christian International Ministries, and was clearly held as a forerunner of the restoration of the Prophetic office in the Church.

Mark 4:26 Described the paradigm of the Kingdom of God likened to a seed — blade, mature, then harvest.

Rapture — This will take place in the fullness of time — it is not a set time — it will happen when the bride is ready! The Church has a destiny to fulfill. Acts 3:19-21 Heaven will hold Jesus until the time of restoration of all things. He will return as a roaring lion for vengeance on the ungodly.

Rev. 5:10 Kings & Priests to God & we shall reign on the earth. Heb. 6:13

1500 — Protestant movement 1600 — Evangelical movement 1700 — Holiness movement 1800 — Faith Healing movement 1900 — Pentecostal movement 1940 — Latter rain movement 1950 — Deliverance movement began restoring the Evangelist 1960 — Charismatic movement began restoring the Pastor 1970 — Faith movement began restoring the Teacher 1980 — Prophetic movement began restoring the Prophet 1990 — Apostolic movement began restoring the Apostle

Steps into Activation — Hear, Believe, Receive All are acts of Grace — Ephesians 2:8-9 — By GRACE are you saved through faith.
————————————————————————————
BARBARA WENTROBLE — This precious handmaiden of the Lord stepped onto the platform prophesying over the congregants. She flowed and flowed in the prophetic spirit of encouraging the Body to arise to take their place in these last days — stepping up into redemption and restoration!

She started off in Joshua 1:10-11 3 days, then cross over Joshua 3:2-4 Follow the ark from 2,000 distance

We must have the King’s Discernment — The Sons of God are led by the Spirit of God!

Keep your eye on the river — it could suddenly take a turn and you could end up on dry ground.

This is a Season of Separation — those things that were treasures in the last move are junk in the new move, and vice versa. We must have an Isachar anointing to know the times and seasons — We are the People of the Third Day.

Hosea 6:1-3 Come, let us return to the Lord! Is 62:2-4 The Lord will give you a new name!

God’s purpose is REDEMPTION AND RESTORATION!!!

The Jordan speaks of death — the Apostolic is holding water back for God’s people to cross over the river. Many things are dying — old ways, practices, etc.

——————————————————–

DUTCH SHEETS — Pastor of Spring Harvest Fellowship in Colorado Springs. Noted author, conference speaker, formerly on the faculty of Christ for the Nations – Advisor to Aglow International — guest lecturer at Fuller Theological Seminary.

This is a time when God is connecting PEOPLE, OFFICES, STREAMS!

Haggai 1:1-6 — …sown much, harvest little, eat but not satisfied .. This describes the Body today. Ezra 1:1-4, 3:8-13 Four obstacles to the Body 1. Discouragement 2. Fear 3. Intimidation 4. Selfish desires

Forget Balance! It is not for this hour! If God only used balanced people, we wouldn’t have a Bible!

This year will be the year that determines the course of this nation — We have a one year window to finally get it right. This is our opportune time! It is time for : 1. Revival! For the breath of God to blow on this nation 2. Repentance — Judgement is coming unless we truly repent! 3. Passion, Zeal, Desperation — A holy fire, zeal and passion (Ps. 69).

God has issued a CALL TO WAR!!!! He is much angrier at the Church than he is with the President. God chose our current President — a man who could go either way, depending on how the Church responded. God selected him and told the prophets exactly the situation — they could follow the Biblical mandate to pray for our leaders and this nation would enjoy a season greater than anything ever known, with a Spirit filled President — or they could fail to warn the Church and the Church could fail to pray — and we would have the situation we now find ourselves in. The prophets warned, but no one heeded. The decision was made by the people, and we are reaping the whirlwind. God can’t remove the President without punishing His people — for they are worse than the President is! If My People don’t repent and Pray, I will judge them for THAT ALONE!!! It has been prophesied that Bill Clinton could become the greatest evangelist of our time — but only if the Church repents and prays!

At this time, Dutch Sheets called Chuck Pierce forward and he spoke the following things:

The Spirit of the Lord spoke to me over a year ago and said we must pray for four things daily: 1. Reconciliation — Heaven and Earth 2. Repentance — True, devil choking, vessel cleansing, heartfelt repentance 3. Truth to be Revealed — First Jesus! He is truth! 4. Miracles — healing of body, soul and spirit — manifestation!

IT IS TIME TO VOLUNTEER FOR GOD’S ARMY. IF YOU FAIL TO VOLUNTEER, I WILL DRAFT AND IT WILL BE PAINFUL!!!!!

I CALL YOU TO BE MINISTERS OF FIRE, IMPARTING A SPIRIT OF FIRE! YOU WILL BE IGNORED NO LONGER!!! GO FORTH AND LOOSE THE FIRE OF GOD!!!! I WILL HAVE A CHURCH THAT LOOKS LIKE ME!!! YOU DIDN’T CHOOSE ME — I CHOSE YOU!!! I WILL REMOVE FEAR FROM MY PEOPLE!!

There are some key months in 1999 when prayer will be of an even more urgent necessity. In those times, we must cry out for the anointing — speak prayer, mobilize prayer — be in constant prayer.

February April — especially Salt Lake City July October

He prophesied several things, including a lightning strike that will leave Las Vegas without power for six days, resulting in revival there. A huge explosion coming in Chicago, and called forth all who live within 50 miles of Chicago for prayer. He called for prayer for the East Coast — the Atlantic Coast States — much Masonic influence in the early, founding days of our nation will have to be avenged and set back on course . He saw the Washington Monument coming down, and the dome gone from the Capitol. He did not prophecy that these things would actually occur in the natural physical — it could well be a spiritual release. The city of DC was laid out by a Mason, and the design has much cryptic Masonic imagery that is a stronghold to be pulled down — again, he did not say this would be actual physical pulling down — but a matter of loosing spiritual bondages.

Mention of Y2k was made, and it was said that these problems would be “spotty” — worse in some places, and hardly noticed in others. Y2k is not to be feared — much worse is the door this will open for other problems. We will see an increase in terrorism — not on a large scale, but in a serious scale — it will be attacks against our children — school buses in particular were mentioned. This will have a devastating effect on the national psyche. It is not too late to pray against these things — in fact, there was a call to pray against these things. It was also said that we would experience a season of “tower of Babel” with our communications. Phones, TV, internet — all will go down for a while — again, it is imperative to pray against these things! It is not too late! We have been forewarned!

Cindy Jacobs entered extreme travail on the stage, and had to be supported by her husband and others. She called forth for those in bondages to sin — especially sin of a sexual nature, i.e. pornography, masturbation, lust, porno on the internet, etc. — to come forward and confess their sins and repent. There was an enormous response from the crowd, going forward, confessing, repenting.

CHUCK PIERCE — Executive Director of the World Prayer Center and prayer leader for the Spiritual Warfare Network, as well as leading the intercessors of AD2000 United Prayer Track.

THIS IS A YEAR OF REDEMPTION — THE THIRD DAY CHURCH!!!

1998 (AKA 5758 in the Jewish Calendar) was the Days as of Noah — a time of rest — the Beginning of Favor.

1999 (AKA 5759 in the Jewish Calendar) is the Day the Lord of Redemption and Salvation.

We’re entering a time of redemption and Salvation — a time of Transition. This transition ends October 1999!

PHASES OF TRANSITION 1. Ending — dying to the old 2. Confusion 3. New beginning!

SEVEN STEPS TO SURVIVING AND THRIVING IN TRANSITION AND BEYOND

1. Recognize that these are different times — think and connect prophetically. 2. Stay alert to activities and the unusual around us. 3. Keep our spirits alive and active so we can discern properly. 4. We must know how to get in touch with each other immediately! 5. We must learn to understand each others ways and methods of communication. 6. We must not let petty issues distract us — they may be religious spirits. 7. STAY FOCUSED on the mission that the Lord has given each of us!

FIVE FUNCTIONS OF PROPHETIC 1. Comfort 2. Encourage 3. Edify/Exhort 4. Direction 5. Redemptive

THE THIRD DAY CHURCH IS ARISING!! John 2 — On the Third Day, there was a wedding in Canaan of Galilee Third Day people are obedient — Abraham was just such a person, and by leaving Ur, he caused all of us to be blessed!

Genesis 1:11-13 — God spoke the seed principle of regeneration. Genesis 22:4 – ON the Third Day, Abraham saw his place afar off.

YOUR NEW WORSHIP WILL BE LINKED WITH YOUR SUPPLY!!!

Esther 5:1-6 On the THIRD DAY, Esther put on her royal robes and stood in the inner court of the king. He asked her what did she want — And her people were delivered!!

As THIRD DAY people, we must: 1. Deal with our greatest fear. 2. Understand authority 3. Increase your discernment. 4. Know who co-labors among you. 5. Be in the world, but not of the world — be wiser than the world 6. Don’t reject the messengers God sends to you.

The new church structure emerged in October, 1997.

John 20:19-22 The disciples feared and Jesus appeared and declared Peace — He breathed on them and said received the Holy Spirit!

After Pierce spoke, he called forth Jim Goll, formerly with Mike Bickle’s Metro Christian Fellowship in KC. He is now serving at a church in Antioch, TN. This powerful man of God spoke about 20 minutes, preparing us for communion — I only wish I took notes — but the move of God through the sanctuary was awesome — a tangible anointing filled the house as this man prepared our hearts to receive communion. It was an unforgettable experience.

Afterward, we broke into thirteen groups and spread out into separate rooms for prophetic presbytery. I’ve never witnessed anything like it in my life. I don’t know how many prophets they brought in for this, but it was such a life-changing experience. I spoke to many people afterward — I heard none with any disparaging remarks from their experience. These were anointed saints, who spoke the heart of God to his children. These Words were recorded on cassette, and given to each individual.

It was a privilege to sit in the audience amongst the children of God — let alone to be in the same room with so many of his chosen leader/prophets for this hour! Had someone given me the privilege of selecting a dozen speakers from anywhere in this nation, the list would not have looked very different from the agenda. Each was a timely blessing. A Word in Season. I have scarcely touched on all the feast that was set before us — I look forward to reading what others saw and heard and felt. I felt the presence of the Lord during those days as strongly as I’ve ever felt in my life!

I completely failed to mention the multiplying of bread during the Thursday night service, after Cindy Jacobs spoke — she had, I believe, three loaves of bread brought from the church in Baltimore that is experiencing such tremendous revival. She had it distributed, first to those seeking repentance or renewal or some special season of prayer — there was some left, so she began to have it distributed amongst the remainder of the congregation — something over 3,000 people. Everyone was served, and there was bread left over!!! It just kept multiplying – and some people took fairly sizeable chunks! It was miraculous! Those loves were the standard small size that comes from a bread machine — I’m talking less than twelve inches long and maybe six inches wide and high. The whole series of meetings went like that — it started at 7:00AM and I don’t think I ever got in bed before 1:30 or 2:00 AM — and I was neither early in my arrival nor late in departure. People were there before I arrived, and still there after I left!

Thinking back over what I have sent to you – I left some of the best parts out! There were miracles, deliverances, impartations — I could go on and on — but I won’t.

God bless.

PAUL CAIN

This gentleman needs no introduction. Before he began his message from the Lord, he spoke Words to Jim Laffoon, Cindy Jacobs, Barbara Wentroble, Kingsley Fletcher and others of prominence in the meeting, and then to other people in the audience who he called by name, identifying relatives, whom he had never met. Indications were that he was “spot-on” – and he held the audience in rapt attention. I confess I took few notes — I sat with my mouth agape, drinking in the Word of the Lord.

Rev. Cain says that his ministry has been through many seasons — but a revelation of simplicity is now marking his ministry — a return to the simple Gospel of Christ. The Gospel is the Power of God! He says he finds that if he presents the Gospel, signs and wonders naturally follow, just as promised in Mark 16:15-18 — The Great Commission with Signs Following! Preaching the Gospel with Power and Demonstration!

Scriptures used are I Cor. 15:1-4, Luke 12:51, Galations 1:6, and Mark 16:15-18.

————————————————————

CINDY JACOBS — Mrs. Jacobs is the co-founder of Generals of Intercession — a Southern Baptist legacy who grew up in a planting pastors home. She is an international advisor-at-large for Aglow and serves on their International Prayer Council.

Again, I took woefully few notes — but the message was powerful and so full of spiritual protein! I eagerly await the arrival of the tapes so I can hear it afresh.

Scriptures used : Acts 4:32-34 — Power, Grace, Provision Ezekiel 43:1 — Voice of many waters Proverbs 24:6 — Strategy — multitude of counsel Jer. 29:7 — Peace in your city
She spoke of how the prophets involved in this conference had met days prior to the convening, at the World Prayer Center. This included many of comparable stature in the body besides the speakers — Barbara Yoder, John Sanford, Jim Goll and others. When they first began to seek the Lord, they expected the Lord to speak to them a common message — it didn’t happen. Instead, they came to realize that they each had a different piece of the prophetic puzzle — individually we prophecy in part. We come together and prophecy in WHOLE! She called them to the stage — the Glory filled the room while these warriors — Giants of the Faith – almost reluctantly passed the microphone around. None tried to overpower, none seemed to wish to draw attention or power or glory to himself — such a spirit of humility pervaded the place. And they spoke of things coming and how the church must prepare. How we’ve failed our nation, our families, our communities — indeed, the world. And that through approaching the Father as clean, yielded — dead — vessels, we can still prevail upon the Father to avenge Himself with grace and mercy. In fact, the word was that the Father had already agreed to not be as severe as was His original intent — but unavoidably this nation would be SPANKED. That is the word several of them used.

It was said that an east-west war was coming — China, Islam, the old communist line — an alliance that will make the Nazis look like a garden party. It is time for deep, intense, dedicated intercession and travail against these powers.

But we were also reminded that the phrase “fear not” appears in the Bible 365 times!
There is still time for us to change the Fathers mind and lessen the severity of His avenging actions. It is not too late.

———————————————————–

I had never heard this gentleman before — his humility surprised me. That’s more a commentary on my preconceived notion, I suppose — but a pleasant surprise just the same.

RICK JOYNER — Rev. Joyner is the founder and executive director of MorningStar Publications and Ministries in Charlotte, NC. He has written numerous books well known to the prophetic community, and is editor of the Morning Star Journal and The Morning Star Prophetic Bulletin, and is the director of the Morning Star School of Ministry, the MorningStar Fellowship of Ministries and the MorningStar Fellowship of Churches.

Amos 3:7 — Prophets — PLURAL! The essence of the prophetic! Paul said We have the mind of Christ.

Prophetic — Arises from being a friend of God — intimacy! Stay close enough to the throne to know what’s going on! The job of the prophet is to equip the church.

Romans 6:19 — Everyone who practices sin is LAWLESS!

Paul Cain said a curse follows uncovering our leaders. The church is about to come under great scrutiny.

We should pray for our government — the IRS, FEMA, FBI, all government agencies and bureaucrats.

Romans 13 — No authority except for God.

The Enemies job is accusing Our job is interceding.

If we don’t change our direction, we will end up where we’re headed!

Kingdom — Righteousness, Peace and Joy in the Holy Ghost — the church has changed it to Joy, Peace, then maybe righteousness. It cannot be received out of order — proper sequence.

We are under a mandate for Holiness! Avoid judgement with genuine repentance. Railing against the president will come back to haunt us. We have imparted lawlessness to our children. James 5:12 says to let our yes be yes and our no be no. Anything other than that is evil. Speak reliably.

The only formula for discerning prophecy is KNOW HIS VOICE! What you got away with in the outer court will get you killed in the Holy of Holies.

KNOW HIS VOICE — RESPOND IMMEDIATELY! We don’t keep faith in the Word because we so easily compromise our own words. We have grown accustomed to not taking our words seriously when we spoke; consequently, we don’t take His words seriously either!

————————————————————

MIKE BICKLE — Senior pastor of Metro Christian Fellowship in KC, Missouri, preaches a message of passion for Jesus through the knowledge of the beauty of God. He particularly emphasizes the forerunner ministry and a fasted lifestyle in the context being a friend of the Bridegroom.

Again, I was so enthralled that I failed to keep good notes.

Matthew 22 (also 21) Jesus last public sermon — the final paradigm. Matthew 23 Jesus acting judicially — private Matthew 24 & 25 — Jesus speaking to His disciples in private.

There are 15 paradigms in the Bible — i.e., military, family, economic, agricultural, etc. — each is a different facet of the heart of God.

He spoke at length of the Bridal Paradigm — describing the proper condition, mindset, preparation, dress, festivities, and intimacy of the Bride, and her Bridegroom’s role of preparation, celebration, protection and intimacy with the Bride.

He emphasized the necessity of restoring the First Commandment to First Place in our hearts, individually and collectively.

Hosea 2:16

I believe every speaker in the conference hereafter referred back to Mike Bickle and the Bridal Paradigm.
————————————————————-
JIM LAFFOON — He serves on the International Leadership Team of Morning Star Ministries, and is based in Torrance, CA. He also works with Campus Harvest, a resource ministry that equips local churches to reach college campuses, and travels throughout the Body of Christ ministering prophetically. He ran several night meetings at the World Prayer Center early in the week before the NSP conference began on January 28.

His topic was “From Shittim to the Jordan — Crossing Our Millennial Jordan.”

The following is taken from the outline provided by Rev. LAFFOON .

“He opened his message describing the dire situation encountered at the end of the first millennium. After many years of being terrorized by savage Magyars, Viking Raiders, and the hordes of Islam, Christians now faced famine, falling meteorites, and a plague called “St. Anthony’s Fire.” With the Papacy in horrible decline for much of the century, it seemed that the church was falling into the apostasy that would preceded the second coming.”

“Yet, as the church crossed into the second millennium, the advance of Islam had been stopped, the Vikings and Magyars were converted, and the Cluny reform/revival was impacting the Church. Whether it was the supernatural conversion of Olaf Trygvesson or the dream of Queen Charlotte, God brought his people into a new period of harvest blessing. I am convinced that it is no different for us today. We, too can pass through the deadly millennial currents that are swirling around us into an incredible time of harvest for our King. (Historical information taken from The Last Apocalypse by James Reston, Jr.; Doubleday.)”

Laffoon believes Joshua 3:1-3 is prophetic for the Church in North America. The Church is slowly transitioning from Shittim to the banks of Jordan. Many of us are in the three-day period of preparation that preceded the crossing of the Jordan

Shittim — God’s dealings with Israel at Shittim are prophetic for our time. 1. The transition from Moses to Joshua (Deut. 31:1-8). 2. The inheritance of Zelophehad’s daughters (Numbers 27:1-11). 3. The assault of Balak (Numbers 23-25). 4. The Transjordan tribes (Numbers 32).

Three days – Whether it was Jonah in the whale’s belly or Jesus in the tomb, three days in Scripture can represent a period of darkness, waiting, and fearful apprehension. As we prepare to cross into the next millennium, many Christians are facing increasing levels of fear and worry.

The Jordan River — As I have waited on the Lord, the Holy Spirit has quickened to me that the Millennial crossing is our Jordan River.

As we face the thickets (Jer. 12:5), Lions (Jer. 49:19), and the Flood Waters (Josh. 3:15), we have His promises to stand on.

His promises to us are:

1. Increased supernatural power and provision (Josh. 3:5) — We are to consecrate ourselves in preparation for an outpouring of signs and miracles — Supernatural! It is not about YOUR ANOINTING — it is about THE TIME WE ARE IN!
2. Safe Crossing (Joshua 3:13)
3. Harvest and spiritual conquest (Joshua 3:15).

The greatest harvest ever is coming! Swift growth will be fueled by six things: 1. Acts 2:1-4 — Suddenly the Holy Spirit showed up! 2. Acts 8:28-40 — Philip in mid-harvest suddenly disappeared. Suddenly, He will move, redefine, realign you. 3. Acts 9:1-3 — Sudden regeneration! Sudden salvations of people you have given up on. 4. Acts 10; Acts 12 — Sudden answers to prayer — sudden answer to things long sought. It will take extraordinary prayers. 5. Acts16:25, 26 — Sudden acts of power, sudden deliverance. 6. Acts 12:21-23 — Sudden retribution — sudden righting of wrongs.

We are not the first to face a Millennium — we’re the second 1,000 year of incredible fear. At the previous millennium, people faced a comet visible at night for 3 months!
This summary was easy to do — almost the entire thing comes from the outline he provided to everyone.

———————————————

DR. KINGSLEY FLETCHER — Founder and Senior Pastor of Life Community Church in Research Triangle Park, NC. Dr. Fletcher has a dynamic ministry among UN staff from Moslem nations. During a subsequent session, Paul Cain brought a special word from the Lord that he would wear two crowns — one spiritual and one physical. Dr. Fletcher confirmed that he would be cornated in Africa in October of this year.

Dr. Fletcher spoke about “What God is Looking For In A Prophet.” He used scriptures Amos 3:7; Is. 43:18,19; Is. 46:9, 10.

A prophet is a true covenant partner of God — they know the present and CAN know the future. The future is more interesting to God and Man — the enemy loves the past. Is. 43:18 admonishes one to forget the former things. Is. 46:9 says to remember the former things. But Is. 46:10 reminds that He makes known the end from the beginning, from ancient times, what is still to come — “My Word Will Stand!”

Prophets attract trouble and persecution. Prophets are strange, misunderstood — no reputation to protect.

Prophets validate what God is doing in this world. Any time God raises a king, He raises a prophet and an intercessor.

God is restoring the prophetic, but he wants four things: 1. Your mind — He will renew it. 2. Your heart – He will change it. 3. Your ear — He will make you hear what he hears. 4. Your eyes — He will make you a seer.
——————————————————————-
TED HAGGARD – The meetings actually took place in the church pastored by this man (located across the parking lot from the World Prayer Center. This is New Life Church. He is co-founder of the World Prayer Center with Peter Wagner, an author, teacher, respected board member of NAE, Global Harvest, Every Home for Christ and the Center for Christian-Jewish Dialogue. He is senior editorial advisor for Ministries Today and a member for the Mission to all the World 2000 Board of Reference.

The topic of his message was THE IMPORTANCE OF PROPHECY.

This Man of God spoke of the blending of the offices in the church. The pastor is the local authority, and the prophet must submit to the pastor in the church setting. The act of submission is emphasized all through the message — submission and the attitude in that submission. He gave some examples in his own church — adding that humility, humor and love will conquer most any obstacle involving feelings and attitudes in a church setting. He explained that mistakes are made, and will continue to be made, but that does not disqualify one from bringing future Words. He cited a particular example in his church where a brother stood up and began to prophecy (their local protocol is to take all Words to the pastor for his review, and he will accept or decline, and select the forum if it is to be used). The brother began to set dates for the rapture and other outlandish assertions. Pastor Haggard stopped him and reminded him, in love but in authority, that this was out of order — then had the congregation stand, extend their hands toward the offending brother and tell him they forgave him for the false prophecy and they prayed for the brother. Since then, that offending brother has brought man good Words to the local Body and is loved and respected. In his message, he used the following scriptures.

I Cor 12:28, 8-10 Romans 12:6 1 Cor 14 Joel 2:28 Acts 2:17 Ezekiel 13 — False Prophets

When you heard the Word of the Lord, you can do one of three things: 1. Go to the prayer closet — keep it there. Don’t tell everything you hear. 2. Enter into intercession — Let the Words be points of intercession. 3. When specifically instructed — TELL IT!!! Don’t hold back, but don’t be out of order either.

He compared phases of our spiritual walk to phases of our human life. Attending a conference such as this is like an expensive date. You dress up, you’re on your best behavior, you’re still polite with each other and try to put your best foot forward. You obey the rules. On the other hand, when you return to your local church, it is like a marriage. You have a routine, and don’t want deviation from that routine, you expect a certain level of respect and accommodation, you want to have a handle in how things go and flow, and you don’t mind speaking your mind if you feel the urge.

He spoke about local church protocol for manifesting the Gifts of the Spirit. Each church has their own way of ordering things, and it is imperative to conform to that protocol while in that setting. It might not necessarily be “right” but it is their way and not your place to “fix it.”

John 4:24 – God is spirit and Truth and all his worshipers much worship in spirit and truth. Proverbs 12:11, 28:19 — Work your land — don’t chase fantasy. Exodus 27 — The Third Commandment — Do Not misuse the Name of God.

What Ministers Are Looking For When Someone Approaches to Bring A Word from the Lord 1. Trust — “Good People” 2. Biblical — Applies Biblical Principles 3. Servants Heart — Philippians 2 4. Appropriate for this service Reasons the pastor might decline a. Guest b. Strong worship c. Pastor has a major Word d. He doesn’t want it. 5. Frequency of Word from the person 6. Which level are they claiming? “it seems to us and the Holy Spirit”

The local pastor must discern Spiritual Integrity 1. Facts of previous Words 2. Attitude of the deliverer 3. Watch for Selective Listening

Over and over, from this speaker and others, it was emphasized that submission to local authority is of the utmost importance!
