The Crowd and the Crown (Conclusion) – Karen Austin

Whirlwind Prophetic Teaching , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

In conclusion to the messages regarding the “crowds” that come against us in life, I submit this word to you. We are to not only bring words of encouragement, but at times, we are to sound the alarm, which is released as protection and to bring an awareness. As we are coming out of this time of quarantine, know it is a time of passing over and we do not want to take any of the baggage of the latter day with us. It’s a new day, it’s to be a new way…a coming out of the wilderness and entering into our promised land. My prayer is that this will encourage you, while awaken you.

“A stampede of a variety of crowds are coming against My people in this hour to cause them to lose faith, to lose courage to stand up against the battle that is being waged against them. But I release this alarm to cause My people to awaken to the reality of the pressure of these crowds and to understand the significance of this hour.

The purpose of the crowds of the enemy is to lead My people down paths that I did not intend them to follow. The enemy desires to bring condemnation upon My people at the place where they have stopped and compromised, saying “Look at where you are! Look where you have failed.” But know this, the enemy is a liar! I will always have a plan of redemption for you, a plan to bring you back to My plan of life for you.

There has been a distinct attack of compromise and lethargy that has come against My Body. Be wise My people. Do not conform back to this world, but be renewed in the spirit of your mind. Follow the leading of My Spirit in all matters of your life. The price is too costly to submit to compromise… to remain complacent…to not recognize the lateness of the hour. For the enemy will attempt to bring one thing and then another to slowly move you from your place of abiding in Me. Just as a pioneer who would wander away from the camp would be open game for the enemy’s attack, so also will you be if you move from the place I have called you to stand.

Hear what I say to you this day. Know that the enemy is very subtle. His suggestions always sound good. They always have, but know he is a deceiver and a liar. There is not truth in him for he comes to steal, kill and to destroy. But I have come to bring you life and life abundantly!

Press on My children for I have the victor’s crown waiting for you. Know that I am for you and not against you. I have given you all that you need for the battle. I have overcome the world and you are more than a conqueror because of the victory that I have won for you. Walk in it. I have given you the power and authority to walk away from the crowds that seek to draw you from My best for your life.

I have a place of peace for you and in this place, you will see clearly – where you are to go and what you are to do. Receive My strength today. Receive My grace today. I love you and I call you an overcomer! You can do all things through Me, the OVERCOMER who strengthens you!”

Preparing for the Lost Lamb – Niki Wright

Whirlwind Prophetic Teaching , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

I saw a vision a few nights ago in the middle of the night. It was Jesus carrying a lamb around His neck. I read Luke 15.4-6 TPT.

4–5 “There once was a shepherd with a hundred lambs, but one of his lambs wandered away and was lost. So the shepherd left the ninety-nine lambs out in the open field and searched in the wilderness for that one lost lamb. He didn’t stop until he finally found it. With exuberant joy he raised it up and placed it on his shoulders, carrying it back with cheerful delight! 6 Returning home, he called all his friends and neighbors together and said, ‘Let’s have a party! Come and celebrate with me the return of my lost lamb. It wandered away, but I found it and brought it home.’”

I felt like He was showing me that we need to prepare our hearts for those who are coming home to Him. For us to be ready to be like the Shepherd and be joy filled to carry them in our hearts. Bringing them back home and celebrating them. 

“With exuberant joy he raised it up and placed it on his shoulders, carrying it back with cheerful delight! 6 Returning home, he called all his friends and neighbors together and said, ‘Let’s have a party! Come and celebrate with me the return of my lost lamb. It wandered away, but I found it and brought it home.’”

With exuberant joy. With cheerful delight. 

Are we ready to join with Jesus in carrying those who are so different than us in our hearts and help them back home? To carry them with exuberant joy and cheerful delight? I feel like the Father is saying it’s time to prepare for this.  As we start to emerge out of quarantine sometime in the hopeful, near future, I pray our hearts are able to see each heart as a child of His.  That we can look past our differences and let our light of His love shine through our hearts to them.  That the walls that may have been there before the pandemic would be broken.  That we will make time to pray for people and carry them in our hearts with such joy!  Sometimes we are to be that person that remains in one’s life to speak life and truth and be of support.  There will be a day where many will be coming back home.  Let’s be ones who are ready to find them and help them stay the course and carry them in prayer and encouragement.  Then, have such celebration when they are back home with Him!

In doing this we also need to protect our hearts from jealousy.  As like in the scripture of the prodigal son we can get jealous of those who come home and get so much from the Lord.  Let’s allow the Father to remind us of who we are in Him and not allow our minds to entertain jealousy even now so that we will be prepared for those who will be returning to Him and be so overjoyed when they receive His love and blessings!

Father, prepare our hearts even now to see each person as your child.  Each one a treasure no matter what they believe or how different they are to us.  Open our eyes to see and know which ones we are to join with you in carrying.  Let us intentionally turn our hearts to them and pour out His love in abundance.  Let us be ones who have exuberant joy and cheerful delight to carry them with you.  As they truly repent and turn their hearts to you let us be with them in our hearts and speak encouraging words and support them.  Let us truly celebrate them coming home to you without jealousy.  Dig deep into our hearts now and deal with any jealousy so our hearts can be ready.  Thank you Father for your faithfulness!

Enoch Generation – Karen Austin

Whirlwind Prophetic Teaching , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

“Who is this coming out of the wilderness leaning upon her Beloved?” Song of Solomon 8:5

Now that we are close to coming out of this time of hiddenness, I have been asking of the Lord. “How do You desire that we, Your Bride, come out of this time? What truths are we to have learned? What do You desire to see in Your Bride that wasn’t there before?” I have heard several others saying they do not want to waste this time we have been given to come away with Him….to allow Him to works in us what He desires.

While I believe there are individual lessons that we have learned in this time, as well as revelations of things that were in our hearts that were not pleasing to Him, I believe that corporately, we have been brought to another way of seeing. Seeing what is really important in our lives. Seeing how we have put “doing” things for Him above just “being” with Him in the secret place. Seeing where we have put doing the church routine above desiring Him over anything else in our gatherings. Seeing our need for family and one another. Seeing how valuable and precious life really is. Seeing that the things we ran to before that really do not satisfy the longing in our hearts for peace and hope. There is another “seeing” that I am beginning to understand further, but that is for another time.

As I was researching the scripture above, I looked up the Hebrew words in the Strongs Concordance and where available, the root of each. I was surprised to find a deeper meaning to this verse than I previously knew. Stay with me because I found this very interesting to where we are in the timing of God.

The words “is this” means “with me is God”, from the root “eth” meaning “with” as in Genesis 5:22 “and Enoch walked with God…” and “el” meaning “God”. Hebrew meaning for “coming” is “to go up” or “to ascend”. Hebrew for the word “wilderness” is “dabar” which means “to speak”.

So I read this as to say to me, “Who is this (walking with me is God) coming (ascending) from the wilderness (where God spoke with me) leaning (supporting myself only) upon my Beloved”. I believe if we have processed all that He had in His design for each one of us, the world will ask these questions. “Who is this one that is so different from the rest? Who is this one who walks with God and hears Him speaking?” For you see, these ones have ascended from places of complacency, lethargy and being lukewarm to ones totally passionate for Him. These ones totally rely and lean upon this One whom they love.

There is Revelation 4:1 “Come up here” that has taken place in those whose desire is for Him. He has called us to walk in an elevated place, higher that where we have walked before. I truly believe we are an Enoch generation that will walk with God as Enoch did! It will be in this ascended place that He will speak His mysteries and teach us His ways. It is here, as we behold Him, that we will become like Him. My brothers and sisters, it is time to arise and come out of this place of hiddenness and to truly reflect the character and heart of Jesus Christ to the world!

Have we, as His body, learned these things well? Only time, circumstances and trials will reveal. My prayer is that we have. The world is waiting upon us…

“For the creation waits with eager longing for the revealing of the sons of God.” Romans 8:19

I Still Believe! – Gary Florence

Whirlwind Prophetic Teaching , , , , , , , , , , ,

There is something inside of me that continues to cry out in spite of this crisis that we find ourselves in, is this phrase “I Still Believe”.

I will not accept in my spirit that the best days of the body of Christ are behind us;

“I Still Believe!” that the best days of the body of Christ is to come. I know if we look through natural eyes and hear through natural ears that it may seem bleak and discouragement can easily set in but,

“I Still Believe!” if we can calm our soul down we can hear the still small voice of the Lord saying

“I Still Believe!” in you for I declared that greater things shall you do because I go to be with my Father.”

“I Still Believe!” that He is at the right hand of our Father interceding on our behalf.

“I Still Believe!” that any enemy of ours is an enemy of the Lord’s and that it must bow to the name that is above all names and become part of His footstool.

“I Still Believe!” that there is a move of God coming to this earth that the great cloud of witnesses’ have been anticipating and waiting to cheer us on.

“I Still Believe!” that the whole earth is in labor pains groaning for the manifestation of the sons and daughters of God to set it free from the curse that it was subjected to when Adam fell.

“I Still Believe!” that greater is He that is in me than he who is in the world.

“I Still Believe!” that the tiny mustard seed that was planted when Christ first came is growing into the largest of trees where the nations will come and find rest.

“I Still Believe!” that the resurrection power that brought Christ’s lifeless body back to life is inside of us and is restoring, delivering, healing and making whole our mortal bodies on this side of heaven also. So what am I going to do when the numbers and deaths continue to go up and that there is real pain and real hurt and it is coming at me from all sides and my emotions are like a rollercoaster going up and down being tossed to and fro.

I am going to “Still Believe” will you join me right now and say out loud “Bless the Lord all my soul and all that is within me.” “I Still Believe!”

He is RISEN – Bill Chilcote

Whirlwind Prophetic Teaching , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

HE IS RISEN!

He is the Resurrection and life eternal.

His Blood is the power of the Eternal Covenant.

The incorruptible blood of Jesus Christ is on the mercy seat,

it is there as a witness that you and God have a covenant.

When we understand the blood covenant, we will never be the same. We will be as fearless as David facing the Giants in our life. The giants don’t have covenant with God. So when you face uncircumcised problems, remember they are defenseless and defeated… and you have a covenant with a God who will fight your battles for you. If God is for you, we are more than conquerors through Christ. The Blood is the evidence.

He rose triumphantly from the grave on the 3rd day… for you!

He gave us authority in our world to exercise dominion over every giant in our life… because the blood speaks a better word.

It is an honor and a covenant right to use His Name, Jesus Christ!

So in Jesus Name… circumstances, fear, sickness, poverty, devil, this is the day the Lord will give you into my hands. We don’t ever have to be defeated in life, because we have a covenant with God our Father. We sit with Christ Jesus on His Throne in the completed victory on the Cross.

Thank you Jesus for what you did for me. Thank you that you love me deeply. Thank you for Resurrection Sunday!Galatians 4:7 (TPT) Now we’re no longer living like slaves under the law, but we enjoy being God’s very own sons and daughters and because we are His, We can access everything our Father has– for we are heirs of God through Jesus, the Messiah!

Ekklesia: The Called out Ones – Karen Austin

Whirlwind Prophetic Teaching , , , , , , , , , ,

As I was reading the story in Exodus 9-12 regarding the first Passover, the words the Lord spoke to Moses stood out to me, “Let My people go.” The sins of God’s people were many, still, the Father’s heart was pursuing His people. After 400 years of hearing the cries of His people. He sent a deliverer named Moses.

Moses had many experiences with God. The first being when he saw the bush burning, but not being consumed by the fire. Most of you have had an experience(s) with God. They may not have been as dramatic as Moses’, but God revealed Himself to you. It could have been when you were saved or filled with the Spirit; or maybe through answered prayer. Somewhere along your life, He has made Himself real to you.

I am sure you are like me… like the Israelites, we rebelled against God, but in His faithfulness, He drew you out just as Moses was drawn out of the water. The Father drew you out and took you to Himself to nurture you in His ways. The Israelites knew his actions, but Moses knew His ways. The Father is searching for those who like Moses, those who will turn aside and look…not just pass by when He reveals Himself. He is looking for those who desire to know His heart, to seek His face and not just His hand – just what He can do for them.

I have heard it said that this is the first Passover that Israel has been shut in since that very first Passover. I sense there is something very significant about Passover this year and Resurrection Sunday. There are things that God is rearranging and putting in order that we may not be aware of right at this moment in time, but we will soon see.

The first commandment that God gave to His chosen people dealt with worship. “I AM the Lord your God, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery, You shall have no other Gods before Me.” Deuteronomy 5:6-7.

Just as worship was the first commandment to God’s people when they were set free, worship should be our first response to being set free! The idols we have laid down during this time of being shut in; we must be mindful not to pick them up again. He must remain first and foremost in our lives. Once again He is saying to that which has had us bound…be it schedules, anxieties, fear or whatever has kept you from being near His heart, “Let My people go, so they may worship Me.”

Moses’ name means “Drawn Out”. We, His Bride are called the Ekklesia, the called out ones. He is calling those who have sought His face, those who have carried the burden of His heart….He is calling you out of this season of being hidden. He has delivered you to be a deliverer!

I pray that you and your family receive the fullness of what the Lord wants to do for you and in you during this holy season. May you be set free from all that binds and hinders you. May you walk into the freedom that Christ gave His life to set you free from. Be released! Be healed! Rejoice for the Lord your God has redeemed you with the precious blood of the Lamb….there is power in the Blood…the Blood of Jesus!

Social Distancing and Lockdown – Bill Chilcote

Whirlwind Prophetic Teaching , , , , , , , , , ,

Social distancing is a God thing…. distance yourself from the world and get close to your Heavenly Father. Re-boot your life and come into alignment with the Lord. The voice of the world and the wisdom of man brings us into fear, this is opposite of what God is saying. Yes, lockdown can be a very good thing. Will you choose to listen to the world or enter the secret place with the Lord during this time, (Ps 91) to see what He is saying.

This lockdown is giving families the opportunity to spend more time together which strengthens relationships. As families break bread together and take the cup of communion, they remember and proclaim what the Lord has done. God is preparing us, He is re-booting us, realigning us and restructuring us. As a people God is asking us to come before Him in our brokenness, humbling ourselves, repenting before him and seeking His Face. (2 Chron. 7:14). This shaking is for our awakening to know Him and prepare us for what He is doing in this new era.

We are never going to be the same. Don’t miss what the Lord is doing as He brings us closer to Him. He wants to do a deep work within us.
The Lord is asking us to walkout Romans 12:1-2
The Lord is asking us to think on these things (Phil. 4:8)
The Lord is wanting us to understand our help comes from Him (Psalm 121:1-2)
My sheep hear My voice, I know them and they follow me.(John 10:27).
My word goes forth from my mouth.. It accomplishes and prospers where I send it (Is. 55:11)

This is the season to declare and decree the word of the Lord. It is a season of revealing the sons of God (Romans 8:19) To stand up and proclaim the word of the Lord. (Is. 61).

I will leave you with this last scripture (Ps. 32: 8 TPT)

I hear the Lord saying” I will stay close to you, instructing and guiding you along the pathway for your life. I will advise you along the way and lead you forth with my eyes as your guide. So don’t make it difficult, don’t be stubborn when I take you where you’ve not been before.

Bless you… Journey Well

Overshadowing of His Love – Karen Austin

Whirlwind Prophetic Teaching , , , , , , , , , , ,

Our focus upon love has been good – wanting to love as He loves. But you see, we can only love because we know we are loved by Love Himself. The Father is inviting us to focus upon His love for us. This is an important foundation for our next assignment. Motives are very important to the Father. He looks upon our hearts. Love must always be our motive

The Father desires that we spend time soaking in His love. When we read the Word – look for His love. During our day, look for His love. For in being loved – we will love. Prepare to be swept off your feet by His love. .

There is a harvest coming unto us of the love we have sown. When we sowed love and did not receive love in return. As we bask in His love, He will overshadow us. He will be our covering so we will not fear of the days ahead. Did He not say that His perfect love casts out fear? We shall not only be ones who shall not fear, but we shall be ones who cast out fear around us. How? It is because we release His love. We will become a bearer of hope and love, joy and peace because in His Presence, there is always fullness of joy. In His Presence there is always peace, His hope and His love.

So He is saying to rejoice, for the door is open to His heart. At times, not only will it be times of joy unspeakable, full of glory – but in this place of His love – it shall also be times of love unspeakable! We will be drawn further into intimacy with Jesus, and as an overflow, we will draw others into intimacy with Him.

Love overcomes all. That is why the enemy fights love so much. When he sees love in manifestation, it reminds him of God – of what he lost – being in the Presence of Love Himself. So our warfare is against love. Jesus still loved the disciples who left Him in His greatest time of need. Jesus still loved even those who crucified Him. Love is one aspect of why He walked in the power that He did. If He had allowed even one speck of hate, then He would have given the enemy a place in Him. “Hereafter I will not talk much with you: for the prince of this world cometh, and hath nothing in me.” John 14:30.

This enablement only comes by walking in the grace of His love; which only comes by being loved. This is the place of Bridal Love that He is calling His Bride. Receive His unabandoned love for you. Bask in it. Drink it in for it shall be nourishment for your soul. It is in this place of love that He will cover us

The Harvest is Ripe – Karen Austin

Whirlwind Prophetic Teaching , , , , , , , , , , , ,

Lately these words have been coming to me “Many, many in the valley of decision.” This comes out of Joel 3 and I would like to share this portion of scripture with you:

“Swing the sickle, for the harvest is ripe.
Come, trample the grapes, for the winepress is full
and the vats overflow—so great is their wickedness!”

Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision!
For the day of the Lord is near in the valley of decision.
The sun and moon will be darkened, and the stars no longer shine. The Lord will roar from Zion and thunder from Jerusalem; the earth and the heavens will tremble.
But the Lord will be a refuge for his people, a stronghold for the people of Israel.

“Then you will know that I, the Lord your God,
dwell in Zion, my holy hill. Jerusalem will be holy;
never again will foreigners invade her. “In that day the mountains will drip new wine, and the hills will flow with milk; all the ravines of Judah will run with water.
A fountain will flow out of the Lord’s house and will water the valley of acacias” Joel 3:13-18

I believe these scriptures have prophetic insight to the days we are living. The harvest is definitely ripe and ready for harvest. Many are in the valley of decision. Many have come face to face with their own mortality and inabilities to hold onto what was normal just a few short weeks ago. Uncertainty is the new norm. But we see from scripture that Lord forewarned these days would come. He promises to be a stronghold or place of shelter for His people, for those who will run to Him.

It will be in times such as these and even as darker days appear upon this earth, in these times He has promised that new wine or the new things of Holy Spirit shall flow from the mountain of God. There will be living waters flowing to bring life to where there is death and destruction. It says water will come in the valley of acacias or valley of wilderness. The acacia tree was one of the only types of trees that would grow in the wilderness. The wood is dense and very strong and would endure for a long time.

I hope you are getting what Holy Spirit is saying to you! We, who are His, will not only endure but we will remain strong and out of us His living waters will flow to those who are in despair. We will release His life in places of death. We will sing of His glorious mercies that endure forever and the glory of the Lord will fill the house!

This is the house that the multitudes will run to. It will not be to hear an eloquent speaker. It will not be to one whose diamonds shine for all to see. No, they will flow to the house where the only garments they desire to wear are the garments of righteousness. They will flow to the house whose people have made a decision to be ones who minister to Him and out of that overflow will flow His miracles to the multitudes!

I have so longed for those days and my friends, they are upon us!

Watch for the Seasons of the Lord – Karen Austin

Whirlwind Prophetic Teaching , , , , , , , , , , , ,

As I have been contemplating about this that we are facing and the timelines being set by those in authority, I keep coming back to His seasons never change. The enemy manifesting through man may try to change the days and seasons, but His Word and His seasons are forever settled in Heaven. But many in the church are not aware of the times and seasons of our Father. Many desire things to eventually go back as they have been.

I sense the Lord say “Things have shifted – a new season is upon you. My Kingdom rule and My Kingdom rein through those who are Mine is now the time you have entered. Many have said, have prayed, “Your Kingdom come on earth as it is in Heaven”. But they have not embraced the part of My Son’s prayer “Your will be done”. The heart of many in My church is for Heaven to come so they may live a life of ease. For nothing to interfere with their life plans and schedules to further My Kingdom, but I have said in My Word, in this world you will have tribulation.

For your enemy is a legalist and My people are blind to the things that have given him a legal right. But I am raising up a company of those like Jeremiah who will uproot and will plant. I am giving sight to those who seek. I am causing those to raise up a standard as they come into agreement with Heaven. For in this time, there will be those with not only Heaven on their minds, but Heaven in their heart. It will be from this place of abiding in My will and My purpose that a path will be formed for others to follow. I am raising up forerunners who hear even the whispers of My heart. They are becoming so sensitive in this season to My desires that when they see them come to pass such joy will fill them such as they world can give; because they will know for this they prayed, for this they contended.

I say there is a river of revelation coming and this is what will cause My people to rise above the cares of this world, to begin to rule and rein from their Heavenly position. This will cause faith to come to a new level because they trust in Me. A partnering with Heaven is at hand and I desire you to be a part. Will you submit your desires to Me? Will you allow My desires to become your desires? I desire to trust you with the secrets of My heart. I have chosen you to be alive in this space of time, choose wisely.”
