Prepare and Be Ready! – Karen Austin

Believe to be used in the move that is coming. Prepare to be used for it will not only be those who stand in the office of the five-fold, but all will be needed to manifest what Heaven desires to release upon the earth. Think not, one is greater than another, for it is the same Holy Spirit manifesting through all.

Preparation and training will be different than in times past. For many desired to be trained in spiritual things to heap recognition and blessings upon themselves. But I say in this day and in this era, the heart motives for training must be to learn so as to give out and not to get. For I am moving upon the hearts of many and their focus is being turned from inside to outside, where the dying and the hurting are without hope.

There must be a focus shift from entering the Promise Land only to partake of the blessings of the Promise Land to entering the Promise Land to possess the Promise Land. This will be a Kingdom move. A manifestation of My Kingdom upon the earth to bring many souls into My Kingdom.

Now is the time of Divine Consecration, a setting yourself apart to be used of Me. Now is the time to let go of things that pull you away from My Presence and My will; those things that contaminate your thinking, your speech and pollute your heart. For I must have a people who are pure in heart.

“Who, then, ascends into the presence of the Lord?
And who has the privilege of entering into God’s Holy Place? Those who are clean—whose works and ways are pure, whose hearts are true and sealed by the truth,
those who never deceive, whose words are sure. They will receive the Lord’s blessing and righteousness given by the Savior-God. They will stand before God, for they seek the pleasure of God’s face, the God of Jacob.

Psalm 24:3-6 TPT

The Flame of the Lord – Karen Austin

Think it not strange the things that I said to My people Israel, I say to My people today. For in My Word are hidden truths for that time and also truths for the day in which you live. For My word is a living thing and encompasses things of yesteryear as well as things today. The Word of My power worked yesterday and it works today, all by the hands of those who stand in righteousness, purity and meekness.

I say in the days to come, you shall see the flame of the Lord arise upon My people and they shall become flaming swords in My hand dispersing My power and My judgment upon that which seeks to hinder My way. I have not withheld that which you need and will need in the coming days. The sun is going down upon the earth and darkness shall be all around. But upon you shall be the brightness of My rising. My people who have sold out to Me shall be the only brightness the land shall see. Those who love evil will try to extinguish the light, but they shall shine yet seven times brighter! For I am the light in their midst.

Shrink not back from that which I call you. For as you walk in that which I have assigned to you – you walk in Me also. For I have gone before you and I shall make your way plain. For there shall be no darkness that can hide My path from you. Know that My path is a sure path that will lead you into that which I have for you and those who are with you. Do not allow the dust of the world and the weight of it to weigh you down. All hope is found in Me for I am the God of ALL hope! Many in this hour will become hopeless, but I am raising you up as beacons of hope – trophies of My grace. You shall shine brightly with My truth and because of that brightness of My light upon you, many will be drawn to you for a word of hope and encouragement.

You shall be dispensers of My grace, My truth and My mercy unto man and through this shall be a dispensation of healing such as you have never seen in your generation! For as people come, their whole house shall be swept clean by My righteous right hand and My very virtue shall flood their entire being. It shall be as I have already established in My Word – whole – spirit, soul and body.

A sanctified people ready to cross over into the New day – a people of covenant, a people of dedication, a people of honor unto Me. These shall be My shining bright ones who shall illuminate the way for many.

It will be the people that do know their God that will shine ever brighter and do great exploits. Daniel 11:32

Apostolic Chiefs: What I hear the Lord saying – Karen Austin

Today I would like to comment on what I feel part of the significance of Bob Jones prophecy and the Kansas City Chiefs winning the Super bowl. Remember we only see in part.

First, I want to acknowledge that Bob Jones was one of the most accurate prophets that I have heard and witnessed. I was at a leadership meeting years ago and he laid hands on me to be more discerning of the Spirit, etc. I also have been at conferences where he ministered. I followed his ministry for many years and know people whom he mentored who are people of character. Of course, we have to discern every prophetic word with the Word of God and the spirit of the Word. Discernment especially in the days we live will be very important! So I do endorse his ministry.

What I feel many missed in the prophetic word, which I have included at the bottom of this post, is that when we see the Kansas City Chiefs win the Super Bowl, “God is raising up His Apostolic Chiefs”. Like most, we get excited about revival about to come and stop there. We should get excited! Seeing people coming into the Kingdom, being healed and delivered is exciting!

While we have witnessed a sign according to the prophecy, we can also look around us and see many other signs. What the prophecy does not signify is that we can quit praying and declaring His Word. Actually, it means that even more we should be allowing Holy Spirit’s sanctification process and be about the Father’s business. One thing I have seen with the Body of Christ and prophecy, is many think if they received a prophetic word, well, it’s just going to happen and I don’t need to do anything. While there are prophecies that are not conditional, many are.

Holy Spirit will once again lead. We will prefer one another instead of stepping over one another to get a “position of importance”. We will promote and encourage one another’s ministry. The congregation will be challenged to become conformed into His image and not pacified to pet our flesh and glorify our own image. Remember the Bride has made HERSELF ready [Rev. 19:7].

Tomorrow I plan to share a little more on the insight I believe I have received regarding the Kansas City Chiefs winning the Super Bowl. But for now, I say, “RISE UP AND GO CHIEFS, HIS APOSTOLIC CHIEFS!”

When the Chiefs win the Super Bowl, you will know that revival is about to come. God is raising up His Apostolic Chiefs.” ~~ Bob Jones

Sound of Thunder – Part 5 – Karen Austin

Sound of Thunder – Part 5

So fear not when you hear the thunder and the rumbling. Believe Me when I say, “Yes, the enemy will cause thunder to rumble in your life”, but know that he can do nothing without Me saying that it’s ok. My hand is upon you. My hand is upon your life and My hand is upon your loved ones because I AM a God of Covenant and great peace do I release upon your children and your children’s children because of Covenant.

Because of Covenant, I’m about to give dreams to those that have walked away from me. I’m about to give dreams and you shall begin to see those that have walked away and those that have strayed are going to begin to stream into the churches that allow My Spirit to move freely because they know that they know, that they know, that they know, it’s only the Spirit of God that can set them free and they must go to where the Spirit is moving.

I will have lighthouses all over the earth. Just as in the underground churches in the other nations, where people are led by My Spirit, and so shall it be in the days ahead that My Spirit will draw those that are crying out for deliverance – for healing – for peace. I will raise them up quickly for I have need of them. This will be a day in which some of the training manuals will be thrown out the window because what worked then, will not work now.

It’s a new hour. It’s a new season. It’s a new day. Forsake not the assembling together of yourselves in these last days because you will need the encouragement and the strength of one another. For when the armies got to battle, one does not go this way and one go the other way. They all stay at the heed of the commander. And then they gather back in the bunker. They look out for one another. And this shall be an army that locks arms and saves and delivers many.

Awakening II – Duo Steve Shoaf and Mark Crowe

Music comes in all forms. That is one of the greatest attributes of our God, that He has given us the Holy Spirit to worship Him in song, whether with instruments or with our voice

Awakening ll is just such a group. If you get a chance please visit them at Awakening ll on their Facebook page to learn more about them.  The video below is a little older, but still captures the essence of their worship before the Lord. They are coming out with a new CD early this year. Take a moment and enjoy a time of intimate worship with Steve and Mark, as they minister before and to the Lord.
