The Philadelphia Key Has Come Full Circle – 08-14-15


My message notes are below:

Note taken from a Post on Anita Alexander’s Face Book wall on Feb 15th, 2015:


The first night Ian (Johnson) spoke on the key of David and Susan O'Marra who had come all the way from The USA confirmed the word as the Lord had told her to bring this prophetic key with her and prophetically they stood and unlocked the destiny of the City of the Gold Coast, and also unlocked all the destinies of the people's lives who were in attendance... Truly a very powerfully and history making moment! — with Susan O'Marra.

Revelations 1:1 [This is] the revelation of Jesus Christ [His unveiling of the divine mysteries]. God gave it to Him to disclose and make known to His bond servants certain things which must shortly and speedily come to pass in their entirety. And He sent and communicated it through His angel (messenger) to His bond servant John, 2 Who has testified to and vouched for all that he saw [in his visions], the word of God and the testimony of Jesus Christ. 3 Blessed (happy, to be envied) is the man who reads aloud [in the assemblies] the word of this prophecy; and blessed (happy, to be envied) are those who hear [it read] and who keep themselves true to the things which are written in it [heeding them and laying them to heart], for the time [for them to be fulfilled] is near. 19 Write therefore the things you see, what they are [and signify] and what is to take place hereafter. 20 As to the hidden meaning (the mystery) of the seven stars which you saw on My right hand and the seven lampstands of gold: the seven stars are the seven angels (messengers) of the seven assemblies (churches) and the seven lampstands are the seven churches.


Revelations 3:7 And to the angel (messenger) of the assembly (church) in Philadelphia write: These are the words of the Holy One, the True One, He Who has the key of David, Who opens and no one shall shut, Who shuts and no one shall open: 8 I know your [record of] works and what you are doing. See! I have set before you a door wide open which no one is able to shut; I know that you have but little power, and yet you have kept My Word and guarded My message and have not renounced or denied My name. 9 Take note! I will make those of the synagogue of Satan who say they are Jews and are not, but lie—behold, I will make them come and bow down before your feet and learn and acknowledge that I have loved you. 10 Because you have guarded and kept My word of patient endurance [have held fast the lesson of My patience with the expectant endurance that I give you], I also will keep you [safe] from the hour of trial (testing) which is coming on the whole world to try those who dwell upon the earth. 11 I am coming quickly; hold fast what you have, so that no one may rob you and deprive you of your crown. 12 He who overcomes (is victorious), I will make him a pillar in the sanctuary of My God; he shall never be put out of it or go out of it, and I will write on him the name of My God and the name of the city of My God, the new Jerusalem, which descends from My God out of heaven, and My own new name. 13 He who can hear, let him listen to and heed what the Spirit says to the assemblies (churches).

Isaiah 2:1 The word which Isaiah son of Amoz saw [revealed] concerning Judah and Jerusalem. It shall come to pass in the latter days that the mountain of the Lord’s house shall be [firmly] established as the highest of the mountains and shall be exalted above the hills, and all nations shall flow to it. And many people shall come and say, Come, let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the house of the God of Jacob, that He may teach us His ways and that we may walk in His paths. For out of Zion shall go forth the law and instruction, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem. And He shall judge between the nations and shall decide [disputes] for many peoples; and they shall beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning hooks. Nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.

The Release of the Documents from the Court of Heaven - 08-16-15



Podcast of tonight’s service…..prepare for great change!




The Release of the Documents from the Court of Heaven - 08-16-15


Today was a very important date in heaven and on the earth. The heavenly courtroom released documents to the new leadership on earth, who are now being set in their places for the harvest of our nation and the earth. 


The angel came visiting Pat and I from the court of heaven today, and he gave us documents from heaven for our release into our commission, and the angel is anointing the heads of those who will birth it all through prayer. 


The 140 year cycle of Finney's death ended today, on August 16th, and we are the new Finney shoots that will usher in the greatest of all harvest waves. It has begun, it's your time, it's time to run.

6 Steps to Maintaining a Healthy Thought Life – 07-30-15


6 Steps to Maintaining a Healthy Thought Life – 07-30-15




The Message Outline:


As God deals with the root systems within us- the spiritual battle is intensified by the enemy within the soul. The more negative roots that are exposed and dealt with by God, the thought life that was formerly bound in negative structures needs to be re-established on the truth, and re-grounded in Christ, who is their stability.

Hebrews 4:12 For the Word that God speaks is alive and full of power [making it active, operative, energizing, and effective]; it is sharper than any two-edged sword, penetrating to the dividing line of the breath of life (soul) and [the immortal] spirit, and of joints and marrow [of the deepest parts of our nature], exposing and sifting and analyzing and judging the very thoughts and purposes of the heart.

We are triune beings; we are a spirit, which has a soul, and lives in a body:

The spirit man.                                                
The soul of the man.                                                Each three have unique memory banks.
The body of the man.

1 Thessalonians 5:23 And may the God of peace Himself sanctify you through and through [separate you from profane things, make you pure and wholly consecrated to God]; and may your spirit and soul and body be preserved sound and complete [and found] blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ (the Messiah).

Negative emotions and memories that come to the surface after periods of time, are a sign of spiritual structures and root systems that the Lord wants dealt with, and it’s corresponding thoughts also needing to be cleansed.

Your thought life affects all 3 parts of your being:

Your spirit man is attached to the eternal heavenly realm (when you are born again through Christ.) Your body is grounded to the earthly temporal realm. Your soul processes the information of both realms.
Is your spirit peaceful or troubled? Is your soul at rest, or is it stressed? Is your body in harmony or sick?

Jude 1:2 May mercy, [soul] peace, and love be multiplied to you.

6 Steps to Maintaining a Healthy Thought Life:


1. Recognize:

Recognizing (discerning) the true source of the thoughts will also give you the purpose and intent of it. Thoughts that come to you either come from the source of Light, from our own nature, or from the darkness. Thoughts contrary to the Scriptures, or to the Spirit of the Lord are to be recognized and dealt with accordingly. The Holy Spirit will reveal its source.

Amos 4:13 For behold, He Who forms the mountains and creates the wind and declares to man what is his thought, Who makes the morning darkness and treads on the heights of the earth—the Lord, the God of hosts, is His name!

1 Chronicles 28:9 And you, Solomon my son, know the God of your father [have personal knowledge of Him, be acquainted with, and understand Him; appreciate, heed, and cherish Him] and serve Him with a blameless heart and a willing mind. For the Lord searches all hearts and minds and understands all the wanderings of the thoughts. If you seek Him [inquiring for and of Him and requiring Him as your first and vital necessity] you will find Him; but if you forsake Him, He will cast you off forever!

Romans 8:6 Now the mind of the flesh [which is sense and reason without the Holy Spirit] is death [death that comprises all the miseries arising from sin, both here and hereafter]. But the mind of the [Holy] Spirit is life and [soul] peace [both now and forever].

2. Grab:

Take the negative thought captive, grab it’s influence within your soul, and acknowledge it’s presence & violation.

Deuteronomy 15:9 Beware lest there be a base thought in your [minds and] hearts, and you say, The seventh year, the year of release, is at hand, and your eye be evil against your poor brother and you give him nothing, and he cry to the Lord against you, and it be sin in you.

2 Corinthians 10:(For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;) Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;

3. Loose:

Loose it, and it’s effects from your soul: From the mind, from the will, from the emotions, from the memory bank.

Ephesians 2:2 In which at one time you walked [habitually]. You were following the course and fashion of this world [were under the sway of the tendency of this present age], following the prince of the power of the air. [You were obedient to and under the control of] the [demon] spirit that still constantly works in the sons of disobedience [the careless, the rebellious, and the unbelieving, who go against the purposes of God]. Among these we as well as you once lived and conducted ourselves in the passions of our flesh [our behavior governed by our corrupt and sensual nature], obeying the impulses of the flesh and the thoughts of the mind [our cravings dictated by our senses and our dark imaginings]. We were then by nature children of [God’s] wrath and heirs of [His] indignation, like the rest of mankind.

4. Flush:

Flush the fruit of it, the root of it, and the memory of it, with the Blood of Jesus, to purify the soul from it’s effect.

Hebrews 9:14 How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?

Psalms 33:10 The Lord brings the counsel of the nations to nought; He makes the thoughts and plans of the peoples of no effect.

5. Release:

Release the Love of God to fill the soul with Light and Life, and to restore the harmony and balance of the spirit, the soul, and the body. (Our word, thought, and deed)

Deuteronomy 6:25 And it will be accounted as righteousness (conformity to God’s will in word, thought, and action) for us if we are watchful to do all this commandment before the Lord our God, as He has commanded us.

Colossians 3:15 And let the peace (soul harmony which comes) from Christ rule (act as umpire continually) in your hearts [deciding and settling with finality all questions that arise in your minds, in that peaceful state] to which as [members of Christ’s] one body you were also called [to live]. And be thankful (appreciative), [giving praise to God always].

6. Replace: 

Replace the negative thought that was just removed with scriptures to build a healthy spirit, and stronger soul.

Philippians 4:For the rest, brethren, whatever is true, whatever is worthy of reverence and is honorable and seemly, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely and lovable, whatever is kind and winsome and gracious, if there is any virtue and excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think on and weigh and take account of these things [fix your minds on them]. Practice what you have learned and received and heard and seen in me, and model your way of living on it, and the God of peace (of [untroubled, undisturbed well-being) will be with you.

The Vision of the Lord as the Barley Cake

Today at the Healing Rooms, I was caught up into a visionary experience:

The Vision of the Lord as the Barley Cake - 07-28-15

I am sitting on the grassy hillside of the mountain again in the vision, and I am sitting beside the Lord. We are clothed in our tunics, and our sandals. I see the valley laying below us and I see the encampment of the enemy arrayed against a group of people living in the valley at the base of the mountain. The group was embattled by the enemy, and I knew that they were being slowly whittled down to a small group. I knew the group was strong, yet they were also very weary in the longevity of the enemy attacks.

Jesus did not look overly concerned, and only sat there watching with his arms wrapped around his knees. I sat there to see what would happen. After a few more minutes of watching, I saw Jesus then stand up, and looked over at me, and said, "Let's have some fun!" Suddenly He grabbed my hand and pulled me up, and then He launched Himself forwards into a tumble with me still holding his hand. Here we are both tumbling down the mountainside like a dual ball, and I hear Jesus laughing all the way down! So I start laughing too, and realize that we are like the barley cake falling down the hillside in Judges 7. The Lord knew my thoughts as we tumbled, and He shouted to me as we rolled, "Exactly!"

Then we reached the bottom of the mountain and as we hit the valley floor, thunder and lightning flew outwards from our rolling momentum, and it hit the enemy forces with great bolts. The enemy began to scatter and run. Then fire broke out everywhere, and we came to a standstill at the edge of the city. We stood and watched the fire burn in a circle, all around the city like a wheel. The fire burned up all of the encampments and the weapons of the enemy that the fleeing army had erected. The people that were worn out, then came and stood by us, and the Lord said to them all, "Come."

The Lord then turned and walked over to a lake that was near the city, and He walked down into the lake until He was under the water. I quickly followed the Lord and went under the water too. I knew the people behind us on the shore were deciding what to do, to either enter the water, or to stay.  I also knew their thoughts, and their thinking of the possibility of getting pounded by the army that was sure to regroup against them. One by one, the group finally chose to follow us, and soon we were all in a group standing under the water together. Then the lake we were all in turned into a body of fire. We were all standing in the flames, and the people were all crying out in the purification process, and soon they were were shouting. After a few minutes they were all worshipping together.

Then the fire died down, and we were all found standing on the valley's dry ground again. The Lord then said to them all standing there, "Never fear anything of the enemy that draws near. I am your Battle Axe, and I am also your Barley Cake. Never fear the tactics, nor the weapons, that the enemy use or would make. Know that these things currently being arrayed against you are only being used to becloud the path that is about to be paved. You are to lead My People into the Purposes that I have ordained, and into the destiny written for you all in this land. There is nothing that can withstand Me, nor My Word, and nothing can withstand My Plans for you. Rise up today; move forth firmly in your faith; and then move into your full inheritance that lies just ahead of you, knowing that certain victory shall be yours in every way."

Scriptures:

Judges 7:1-25 Then Jerubbaal, that is, Gideon, and all the people who were with him rose early and encamped beside the spring of Harod; and the camp of Midian was north of them by the hill of Moreh in the valley. The Lord said to Gideon, The people who are with you are too many for Me to give the Midianites into their hands, lest Israel boast about themselves against Me, saying, My own hand has delivered me. So now proclaim in the ears of the men, saying, Whoever is fearful and trembling, let him turn back and depart from Mount Gilead. And 22,000 of the men returned, but 10,000 remained. And the Lord said to Gideon, The men are still too many; bring them down to the water, and I will test them for you there. And he of whom I say to you, This man shall go with you, shall go with you; and he of whom I say to you, This man shall not go with you, shall not go. So he brought the men down to the water, and the Lord said to Gideon, Everyone who laps up the water with his tongue as a dog laps it, you shall set by himself, likewise everyone who bows down on his knees to drink. And the number of those who lapped, putting their hand to their mouth, was 300 men, but all the rest of the people bowed down upon their knees to drink water. And the Lord said to Gideon, With the 300 men who lapped I will deliver you, and give the Midianites into your hand. Let all the others return every man to his home. So the people took provisions and their trumpets in their hands, and he sent all the rest of Israel every man to his home and retained those 300 men. And the host of Midian was below him in the valley. That same night the Lord said to Gideon, Arise, go down against their camp, for I have given it into your hand. But if you fear to go down, go with Purah your servant down to the camp And you shall hear what they say, and afterward your hands shall be strengthened to go down against the camp. Then he went down with Purah his servant to the outposts of the camp of the armed men. And the Midianites and the Amalekites and all the sons of the east lay along the valley like locusts for multitude; and their camels were without number, as the sand on the seashore for multitude. When Gideon arrived, behold, a man was telling a dream to his comrade. And he said, Behold, I dreamed a dream, and behold, a cake of barley bread tumbled into the camp of Midian and came to the tent and struck it so that it fell, and turned it upside down so that the tent lay flat. And his comrade replied, This is nothing else but the sword of Gideon son of Joash, a man of Israel. Into his hand God has given Midian and all the host. When Gideon heard the telling of the dream and its interpretation, he worshiped and returned to the camp of Israel and said, Arise, for the Lord has given into your hand the host of Midian. And he divided the 300 men into three companies, and he put into the hands of all of them trumpets and empty pitchers, with torches inside the pitchers. And he said to them, Look at me, then do likewise. When I come to the edge of their camp, do as I do. When I blow the trumpet, I and all who are with me, then you blow the trumpets also on every side of all the camp and shout, For the Lord and for Gideon! So Gideon and the 100 men who were with him came to the outskirts of the camp at the beginning of the middle watch, when the guards had just been changed, and they blew the trumpets and smashed the pitchers that were in their hands. And the three companies blew the trumpets and shattered the pitchers, holding the torches in their left hands, and in their right hands the trumpets to blow leaving no chance to use swords, and they cried, The sword for the Lord and Gideon! They stood every man in his place round about the camp, and all the Midianite army ran—they cried out and fled. When Gideon’s men blew the 300 trumpets, the Lord set every Midianite’s sword against his comrade and against all the army, and the army fled as far as Beth-shittah toward Zererah, as far as the border of Abel-meholah by Tabbath. And the men of Israel were called together out of Naphtali and Asher and all Manasseh, and they pursued Midian. And Gideon sent messengers throughout all the hill country of Ephraim, saying, Come down against the Midianites and take all the intervening fords as far as Beth-barah and also the Jordan. So all the men of Ephraim were gathered together and took all the fords as far as Beth-barah and also the Jordan. And the men of Ephraim took the two princes of Midian, Oreb and Zeeb, and they slew Oreb at the rock of Oreb, and Zeeb they slew at the winepress of Zeeb, and pursued Midian; and they brought the heads of Oreb and Zeeb to Gideon beyond the Jordan.

God is Pulling Back The Veils For a Fuller View




 

"God is Pulling Back the Veils to Give Us a Fuller View"


The different types of Veils to be removed:
 


Natural Veils: 


Exodus 26:33 And you shall hang the veil from the clasps and bring the ark of the Testimony into place within the veil; and the veil shall separate for you the Holy Place from the Most Holy Place.


Hebrews 4:12 For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart. 13 Nothing in all creation is hidden from God’s sight. Everything is uncovered and laid bare before the eyes of him to whom we must give account.


It is the heavenly pattern of the Habitation, the House of God on earth. The Tabernacle was also a pattern for our inner life. The Holy Place and Most Holy Place are within us. In our hearts and minds. The garden is within us. We are to be holy in our thoughts, attitudes, speech, and deeds. 


God is removing the roots in us that block or cloud our perceptions of what is true and right. We climbing the mountain of Light, to be filled with that light, and to release that light.


Matthew 27:51 And at once the curtain of the sanctuary of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom; the earth shook and the rocks were split. 


Exodus 34:28 Moses was there with the Lord forty days and forty nights; he ate no bread and drank no water. And he wrote upon the tables the words of the covenant, the Ten Commandments. 29 When Moses came down from Mount Sinai with the two tables of the Testimony in his hand, he did not know that the skin of his face shone and sent forth beams by reason of his speaking with the Lord. 30 When Aaron and all the Israelites saw Moses, behold, the skin of his face shone, and they feared to come near him. 31 But Moses called to them; and Aaron and all the leaders of the congregation returned to him, and [he] talked with them. 32 Afterward all the Israelites came near, and he gave them in commandment all the Lord had said to him in Mount Sinai. 33 And when Moses had finished speaking with them, he put a veil on his face. 34 But when Moses went in before the Lord to speak with Him, he took the veil off until he came out. And he came out and told the Israelites what he was commanded. 35 The Israelites saw the face of Moses, how the skin of it shone; and Moses put the veil on his face again until he went in to speak with God. 


God will not be hidden anymore. He will invade every blockade to get to us, to give us a chance to receive Him. The blockades can be in our heart, our mind, our flesh, or our ideals. He does not want us to be one way before men and another before God. No more letting others shut God down in us to be politically correct, or to not offend others. No more hiding of the Glory, the angels, the miracle realm, or the power. 


Religious Veils: 


2 Corinthians 3:13 Nor [do we act] like Moses, who put a veil over his face so that the Israelites might not gaze upon the finish of the vanishing [splendor which had been upon it]. 14 In fact, their minds were grown hard and calloused [they had become dull and had lost the power of understanding]; for until this present day, when the Old Testament (the old covenant) is being read, that same veil still lies [on their hearts], not being lifted [to reveal] that in Christ it is made void and done away. 15 Yes, down to this [very] day whenever Moses is read, a veil lies upon their minds and hearts. 16 But whenever a person turns [in repentance] to the Lord, the veil is stripped off and taken away. 17 Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty (emancipation from bondage, freedom). 18 And all of us, as with unveiled face, [because we] continued to behold [in the Word of God] as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are constantly being transfigured into His very own image in ever increasing splendor and from one degree of glory to another; [for this comes] from the Lord [Who is] the Spirit. 


Whenever we reject the truth, a veil comes over us. Whenever we get offended at a portion of the scripture, and reject it as being for us, then a veil comes over us. Whenever we choose not to believe something of the Spirit of God is real, then a veil comes over us. 


God wants to shred our veils, so we can walk in the full reality of who He is. Whenever we give into persecution, a veil comes over us, and we cave in to the fear of man, and lose more of the Kingdom within us.


Carnal Veils: 


Ephesians 4:17 So this I say and solemnly testify in [the name of] the Lord [as in His presence], that you must no longer live as the heathen (the Gentiles) do in their perverseness [in the folly, vanity, and emptiness of their souls and the futility] of their minds. 18 Their moral understanding is darkened and their reasoning is beclouded. [They are] alienated (estranged, self-banished) from the life of God [with no share in it; this is] because of the ignorance (the want of knowledge and perception, the willful blindness) that is deep-seated in them, due to their hardness of heart [to the insensitiveness of their moral nature]. 19 In their spiritual apathy they have become callous and past feeling and reckless and have abandoned themselves [a prey] to unbridled sensuality, eager and greedy to indulge in every form of impurity [that their depraved desires may suggest and demand]. 


A veil comes over our conscience when we compromise. Layers and layers build up until we become more like the world than like Jesus. That's why many believers grow cold, hard, and eventually leave from following Christ, and go back into the darkness/world. Jesus hated lukewarmness.


Blinding Veils: 


2 Corinthians 4:3 But even if our Gospel (the glad tidings) also be hidden (obscured and covered up with a veil that hinders the knowledge of God), it is hidden [only] to those who are perishing and obscured [only] to those who are spiritually dying and veiled [only] to those who are lost. 4 For the god of this world has blinded the unbelievers’ minds [that they should not discern the truth], preventing them from seeing the illuminating light of the Gospel of the glory of Christ (the Messiah), Who is the Image and Likeness of God. 


Language/Revelation Veils: 


John 16:24 Up to this time you have not asked a [single] thing in My Name [as presenting all that I Am]; but now ask and keep on asking and you will receive, so that your joy (gladness, delight) may be full and complete. 25 I have told you these things in parables (veiled language, allegories, dark sayings); the hour is now coming when I shall no longer speak to you in figures of speech, but I shall tell you about the Father in plain words and openly (without reserve). 26 At that time you will ask (pray) in My Name; and I am not saying that I will ask the Father on your behalf [for it will be unnecessary]. 27 For the Father Himself [tenderly] loves you because you have loved Me and have believed that I came out from the Father. 28 I came out from the Father and have come into the world; again, I am leaving the world and going to the Father. 29 His disciples said, Ah, now You are speaking plainly to us and not in parables (veiled language and figures of speech)! 30 Now we know that You are acquainted with everything and have no need to be asked questions. Because of this we believe that you [really] came from God. 


The Veils are being removed so that we can know Him: 


Isaiah 25:6 And on this Mount [Zion] shall the Lord of hosts make for all peoples a feast of rich things [symbolic of His coronation festival inaugurating the reign of the Lord on earth, in the wake of a background of gloom, judgment, and terror], a feast of wines on the lees—of fat things full of marrow, of wines on the lees well refined. 7 And He will destroy on this mountain the covering of the face that is cast over the heads of all peoples [in mourning], and the veil [of profound wretchedness] that is woven and spread over all nations. 8 He will swallow up death [in victory; He will abolish death forever]. And the Lord God will wipe away tears from all faces; and the reproach of His people He will take away from off all the earth; for the Lord has spoken it.


2 Timothy 1:9 [For it is He] Who delivered and saved us and called us with a calling in itself holy and leading to holiness [to a life of consecration, a vocation of holiness]; [He did it] not because of anything of merit that we have done, but because of and to further His own purpose and grace (unmerited favor) which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began [eternal ages ago]. 10 [It is that purpose and grace] which He now has made known and has fully disclosed and made real [to us] through the appearing of our Savior Christ Jesus, Who annulled death and made it of no effect and brought life and immortality (immunity from eternal death) to light through the Gospel.


John 14:18 I will not leave you as orphans [comfortless, desolate, bereaved, forlorn, helpless]; I will come [back] to you. 19 Just a little while now, and the world will not see Me any more, but you will see Me; because I live, you will live also. 20 At that time [when that day comes] you will know [for yourselves] that I am in My Father, and you [are] in Me, and I [am] in you. 21 The person who has My commands and keeps them is the one who [really] loves Me; and whoever [really] loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I [too] will love him and will show (reveal, manifest) Myself to him. [I will let Myself be clearly seen by him and make Myself real to him.]


VOICE: 21 The one who loves Me will do the things I have commanded. My Father loves everyone who loves Me; and I will love you and reveal My heart, will, and nature to you.
