2/08/15 THE WIND AND THE RAIN OBEY

Tonight we had a sudden cloud burst that was very loud and violent rain.  Then the whole sky lit up in a brilliant flash of light.  I immediately clicked to shut down my computer and even before it turned off, the rain suddenly stopped with no sound at all.  It as though someone had flipped a light switch on for 30 seconds and then flipped it off!  I went into Wayne and asked him if he had just heard that!  He smiled and said he had decided it was too rowdy, so he commanded it to settle down.  No sooner had he commanded, the rain stopped!  A deep sense of joy flooded me because I knew this was a glimpse of the coming manifestation of God’s sons as in Romans 8.  As I was still thinking about it, I heard, I will obey him!”  I was stunned and said, “Who are you? Are you the rain, the cloud, the devil?”  Immediately this scripture came to me:

Matthew 8:26-27 And he said unto them, Why are you fearful, O you of little faith? Then he arose, and rebuked the winds and the sea; and there was a great calm. 27 But the men marveled, saying, What manner of man is this, that even the winds and the sea obey him!

Luke 8:24-25 And they came to him, and awoke him, saying, Teacher, Teacher, we perish. Then he arose, and rebuked the wind and the raging of the water: and they ceased, and there was a calm. 25 And he said unto them, Where is your faith? And they being afraid wondered, saying one to another, What manner of man is this! for he commands even the winds and water, and they obey him.

Psalms 115:16 The heaven, even the heavens, are the LORD's: but the earth has he given to the children of men.

CONFIRMATION:  Tonight when Wayne put me to bed he prayed and thanked the Lord that the weather obeys the Lord’s voice.  I started laughing and told him what I had heard, “I will obey him!”

I was very excited to re-read and study this passage again, with a new perspective.  This passage in yellow means that everything created was involuntarily made to OBEY or be subjected to as a slave to moral depravity.  Creation has a voice and groans along with God’s sons, until they come into the full adoption and redemption of our bodies. 

Romans 8:15-25 For you have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but you have received the Spirit of adoption, by which we cry, Abba, Father. 16 The Spirit himself bears witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God: 17 And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, so that we may be also glorified together. 18 For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.

19 For the earnest expectation of the creation waits for the manifestation of the sons of God. 20 For the creation was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who has subjected the same in hope, 21 Because the creation itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God. 22 For we know that the whole creation groans and travails in pain together until now. 23 And not only they, but ourselves also, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, that is, the redemption of our body. 24 For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope: for what a man sees, why does he yet hope for? 25 But if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience wait for it.

2/12/15  JOURNEY INTO MATURITY

Today Wayne spent a great amount of time (hours) going through a list of decrees over us, family and progeny.  I thanked the Lord for his sacrifices and then heard the Lord say, I am calling forth a rod of iron.

CONFIRMATION:  I turned with anointed hands in Bobby Conner’s SRod 2015:

page 212  NOW IS THE TIME FOR PROMOTION

Never forget, God has begun your preparation.  He has been preparing you for these days all your life. You are truly in the kingdom for such a time as this. Now it is time for promotion. God is moving from strategy to implementation. One of the meanings of the word promotion is advancement to a more senior job, or a higher rank or position.

These days of shifting and positioning have helped bring about these advancements. With these spiritual promotions will come a noticeable increase in power releasing kingdom authority. It is as we sup [dine]Jesus Christ that we are granted to sit with him upon his throne. Notice first comes supping: true fellowship with Christ - then comes authority and display of kingdom power.  The word authority carries with it the ability, skill of capacity to do something.  The kingdom of God is about action, not just terminology.  The promotion from the Lord will give evidence and substance to the reality of a living union with Christ.

1 Corinthians 4:20 For the kingdom of God is not in word, but in power.

INSERT WORDS TO PONDER ABOUT AUTHORITY OVER CREATION

AUTHORITY OVER CREATION 4/07/14

Beloveds, I have placed My anointing, power and authority in your hands as you worship Me.  Use them in faith to calm the stormy seas and still the billowing waves.  The enemy would take advantage of using the nature’s elements for destruction.  It is time you stepped into your rightful authority and speak peace over the destructive storms.  Worship Me and you will see all of creation rise up to the occasion and obey your very heart over each matter.  Creation yearns to worship and praise Me and be at peace.  If you are silent, even the rocks will cry out.

Romans 8:19-22 For the earnest expectation of the creation waits for the manifestation of the sons of God. 20 For the creation was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who has subjected the same in hope, 21 Because the creation itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God. 22 For we know that the whole creation groans and travails in pain together until now.

Luke 19:37-40 And when he came near, even now at the descent of the mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works that they had seen; 38 Saying, Blessed be the King that comes in the name of the Lord: peace in heaven, and glory in the highest. 39 And some of the Pharisees from among the multitude said unto him, Teacher, rebuke your disciples. 40 And he answered and said unto them, I tell you that, if these should hold their peace, the stones would immediately cry out.

AUTHORITY OVER THE ELEMENTS  8/6/96

It is time to take your rightful position and practice authority over the elements. For the hour is late, and thus the demonic world will take advantage of every opportunity to wreak havoc in your life. Natural elements, like the wind and the rain, may suddenly become governed by evil supernatural power and energy.  You have been given authority to rule over the elements and over the demonic spirits who use them for their own gain.

I AM restoring all that Adam lost in the garden, and you shall once again subdue the earth.  I give you dominion.  It is yours.  Stand firm.

“And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it…”  (Genesis 1:28)

“And he saith unto them, Why are ye fearful, O ye of little faith? Then he arose, and rebuked the winds and the sea; and there was a great calm.”  (Matthew 8:26)
