Israel My beloved, My first born! Have you not heard the cries of your children? The cries of restoration and reconciliation? I time of great controversy is about to grip the hearts of your countrymen. A time of controversy and rumor. A time when the mothers will weep for their children and the children for their fathers. A time when the nation will tremble and quake. A time of peril and sword. But I tell you O Israel, I have succored you! I have prayed for you! And the prayers that I prayed so many years ago are about to come to pass O Israel!

"And the glory which You gave Me I have given them, that they may be one just as We are one... Father, I desire that they also whom You have given Me may be with Me where I am, that they may behold My glory which You have given Me..." (John 17).

O Israel My beloved! In this hour you will look to Heaven and cry, "Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani?" But I say to you O Israel, My beloved! I have not forgotten you! I have inscribed you on the palms of My hands! I have written My covenant on the fleshly tablets of My heart! O Israel, in this time of your testing, when the threshing floors will be full, I will show My self strong on your behalf. And what the devil has meant for your evil, I have meant for your good! I will not forsake you O Israel, I will not leave you.

Go cry in the hearing of Jerusalem, saying, Thus says the Lord, 'I remember you, the kindness of your youth, the love of your betrothal, when you went after Me in the wilderness, in a land not sown. Israel was holiness to the Lord...' (Jeremiah 2:1).

O My beloved Israel! In this hour men shall sift you as wheat. But I have prayed for you! I have interceded for you! You will not perish forever, you will not fall forever, I will lift you up and you will shine like you have never shined before! You will run like you have never run before! I will turn your mourning into dancing says the Lord! I will turn you mourning into dancing and your tears to shears! You will lay the harvest of nations at My feet O Israel. You will restore the ruins of many generations. You will repair the breach. If you do not faint you will reap. In your distress and perplexity O daughter of Zion, do not fear, I am here says the Lord, I am here.

"When the enemy comes in like a flood, the Spirit of the Lord will lift up a standard against Him. The redeemer will come to Zion, and to those who turn from transgression in Jacob, says the Lord..." (Isaiah 59:19-20).

O My beloved! This is the reckoning, the consummation of all things. This is that great and terrible day. This is the acceptable year of the Lord, and they day of vengeance of your God. To console those that mourn, to give them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning. This is the day that I will pour out My Spirit upon all flesh. Your sons and daughters O Israel shall prophesy. Your old men will dream dreams. Your handmaidens shall sing the song of Deborah in this day says the Lord. A day of reckoning and reconciliation. A day of famine, and a day of fire. A day I will deliver your sons and daughters. This is that hour says the Lord. This is that hour.

"Even so then, at this present time there is a remnant according to the election of grace...And they also, if they do not continue in unbelief, will be grafted in, for God is able to graft them in again..." (Romans 11).

Prepare yourself O Israel. A time when I will shake the heavens and the earth. A time when I will burn with an unquenchable fire. A time when I will consume the wood, hay, and stubble. A time when 'I will purge the sons of Levi as gold and silver. That they may offer to the Lord an offering in righteousness.' This is the hour that I will walk through your streets with a winnowing fan. I will burn the chaff. I will burn it up says the Lord. I will set those that are Mine aside. They will not be harmed in the flame. They will not die. Not even the smell of smoke will be upon their garments. I will preserve them in this time of famine says the Lord. I will keep them.

"For behold the day is coming, burning like an oven, and all the proud, yes, all who do wickedly will be stubble. And the day that is coming shall burn them up, says the Lord of hosts... But you who fear My name, The Sun of righteousness shall arise with healing in His wings..."

(Malachi 4:1-2).

ISRAEL IS CREATING A TEAR IN HEAVEN FOR HARVEST

By Chad Taylor

 

"Oh that thou wouldest rend the heavens, that thou wouldest come down, that the mountains might flow down at thy presence..." (Isa 64:1).

THE HEAVENS ARE TEARING

Israel is a mirror into the spiritual realm. Look into her and you will see what is occurring presentlyt in the heavenlies. It is a time of extreme warfare and spiritual engagement. Light and darkness are colliding which in turn is producing "signs in the heavens above and earth beneath, blood, fire and pillar of smoke..." A spiritual fire works display in the spiritual realm. (Acts 2:19).

Sept. 11th, 2001 was a rending of heaven. Israel is a greater rending of heaven. What it is creating is an open Heaven with a greater access into the glory of God. The word rend in Hebrew means to "tear." These current events are "tearing" the heavens open and allowing the earth to be under a more intense window of power. Water, fire and wind can be very destructive forces, but in the right environment they can produce the greatest energy and productivity as well.

A GREAT WINDOW FOR SOUL WINNING

Positive and negative charges produce explosive power. What is happening in Israel is creating a window of stunning opportunity for harvest and soul winning. A "tear" is happening in the spiritual realm creating an open heaven which will enable us to engage the lost with greater impact and intensity. We must capitalize on this window of spiritual opportunity and reach out INTO the darkness and pull out the hidden treasures.

The tendency in a storm is to run from it, but revivalist know that running toward it will create the momentum needed to sustain revival. While the whole army of Israel ran away from the giant, David ran toward him creating a spiritual momentum and synergy that harnessed the power of the giant for the Kingdom of God. David cut the head off the Goliath with his own sword...

So David prevailed over the Philistine with a sling and with a stone, and smote the Philistine, and slew him; but there was no sword in the hand of David. Therefore David ran, and stood upon the Philistine, and took his sword, and drew it out of the sheath thereof, and slew him, and cut off his head therewith. And when the Philistines saw their champion was dead, they fled." (1 Sam 17:50-51).

RIDERS ON THE STORM

We must run toward the storms of conflict and controversy not away from them. These critical moments in history are producing the atmosphere we need for revival and reformation. Hearts of men and women are opening like a vacuum desiring spiritual truth. If we miss this moment we may lose another generation to psychics and paranormal spiritualism as we have done previously in church history. God is calling "David's" from the fields of obscurity to run at the social giants that others have avoided.

Good Samaritan's that will cross to the other side of the street and lay hands on social lepers that the church has shunned. Father's that will create an atmosphere that welcomes the prodigals rather than alienating them with our myriad of traditions and rules. The church of the future looks nothing like the church of today. This storm of human conflict will be the force that God uses to change the religious landscape of this hour.

"The LORD is slow to anger, and great in power, and will not at all acquit the wicked: the LORD hath his way in the whirlwind and in the storm, and the clouds are the dust of his feet..." (Nahum 1:3).

WE MUST LEAP THROUGH THIS SPIRITUAL TEAR

Ecclesiastes tells us that there is time to rend or tear, and a time to sew or close up. This is the hour that the Lord is rending the heavens and shaking them. The fruit is being shaken off the trees. Mantles are being shaken from Heaven to be picked up by the sons and daughters of God in this present generation. Glory and power is pouring out upon the church for those that are ready to take it and pour it out. Those that are not willing to pour it out will lose even the little bit they already have. Only those willing to run toward the storms and the shaking will be in position to receive this end time anointing for harvest and revival. God is no respecter of persons, He will anoint who He desires to anoint. These present distresses upon the earth is the spiritual spear that is tearing at the heavens above us, creating an open heaven unprecedented in human history.

We must leap through the tear in the heavens and apprehend the glory and power we need to meet the awesome demand of harvest. We must stand under these open heavens and allow His power and presence to change us from glory to glory. We have to run up the Mountain of the Lord and be transfigured. Then when we descend the world will see the glory of the Lord shining upon us and be saved.

A NEW BREED OF REVIVALISTS

A new breed of ministers are rising from the shadows of modern day commercialism and compromise. They are revivalists. Their ministries and lives will create controversy and conflict, it will mark them wherever they go creating spiritual tension and breakthrough. The old wineskins will resist them creating even more energy and power. God will take the negative charge being produced and use it for His glory. What the enemy has meant for evil God has meant for good.

God is rending the heavens and coming down. Where He is going to land will surprise and even shock the status quo. He will come upon the most foolish and unqualified, the unreligious and undignified. From the burning flax of religion will emerge David's mighty men. Women will be counted in the ranks as well. From this modern day controversy and conflict these warriors emerge.

Many will come from incarceration and institutions. Many political prisoners will walk from the walled cities and prisons with a profound message for the hour. God will defy every human projection and false judgment. God will delight in the simple and the downcast, from them he will have a remnant and a strong nation. They will climb the mountain of the Lord and come to a place of revelation that their forefathers were not willing to die for. Like Abraham, this army will count the cost to ascend.

"In that day," says the LORD, "I will assemble the lame, I will gather the outcast and those whom I have afflicted; I will make the lame a remnant, and the outcast a strong nation; so the LORD will reign over them in Mount Zion from now on, even forever..." (Micah 4:6-7)

ISRAEL AND THE PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN

By Chad Taylor

 

The conflict in Israel is in direct relation to the conflict in the
presidential campaign in the U.S.  A great shifting in world power is
taking place in correlation to world harvest and revival.  "The heavens
are suffering violence..."  which is manifesting in the natural.
Israel and America are a mirror image of one another in the Spirit.
The struggle for leadership in America is reflected in the violence
and bloodshed in Israel.  One battle is in the spiritual realm (U.S.),
the other is in the natural or seen by the human eye (Israel).

Once the presidential campaign is over, the storm will begin to calm.
It will not be the end of it, but it will have a peace effect on
Israel and the surrounding areas.  Pray not only for the peace of
Israel, but also for the revival of America which will have direct
impact on the peace of Israel.

PRAY FOR CALIFORNIA

This conflict in world powers is only the shifting of the spiritual
plates as would happen in an earthquake.  Violent shaking, then the
aftermath of that violence, a settling.  From this shaking I will
begin to shake not only the earth but the heavenlies as well.  The
aftershocks of this will be felt all over the planet in revival and
harvest.  The plates of world power are shifting, setting the stage
for world harvest.  I also hear the word "California."  There is an
authority at this time to pray for California and to pray against
catastrophic earthquakes that threaten to destroy many.

PRAY FOR JOSHUA ARMY TO ARISE IN JERUSALEM

Ezekiel 37 will now come to pass.  When you pray, call forth Joshua,
call him forth from the wilderness and the shadow of Moses or the law.
Call forth Joshua to take his rightful place in Israel.  Moses' time
has ended.  It is time for the Joshua army to arise in Jerusalem.
Bind the power of the law and loose the power of grace, and be
confident in this one thing, where sin, (or the law) abounds, grace
does much more abound.  Grace does much more abound.  My grace IS
sufficient in this hour.

Do not pray for the thorn to be removed from Israel as Paul prayed,
but pray rather for My grace to abound...  I am walking beside you,
and like the two on the road to Emmaus, I will open your eyes and give
you revelation to the things you are now doing and saying.  I will
open your eyes to see a greater host of heaven surrounding the city.
A great host that are poised round about Jerusalem and the world.

"I SHOW YOU A MYSTERY"

Now I will show you a mystery, for in this bloodshed will come
vindication, revelation and habitation, I will come to dwell with My
people in a way that they have never experienced.  This will be a
prelude to My coming in the sky.  A taste of My eternal grace and
glory.  For where I am so will My Bride be also.  Israel is a mirror
image of the spiritual.  In this season of unrest is a great door of
utterance opened to the church to bind and loose, to command and
conquer, to overcome and occupy.  PRAY!

Pray for the Joshua spirit to take hold of the heart of the church and
to possess the land.  And when you pray for Jerusalem, pray for the
nations of the world that will surely feel the aftershocks of this
shaking in renewal and revival.  See if I will not cause even this to
work together for the good for those that love Me and are called
according to My purpose.

WATCH THE WHITE HOUSE

Watch the white house, for in it you will see the desire of your
heart.  In its halls and rooms will echo the sounds of repentance and
revival.  Lincoln and Washington will be seen once again even as
Elijah and Moses were seen with Me.  A time of transfiguration is
coming to America.  A time of great grace and revival.  The margin
between church and state will drastically narrow and the river of God
will be seen flowing from the capitol steps.  The eagle of liberty
will fly once again in America.  The eagle of liberty will be seen in
the hearts of your children's children.
