...Changing the status quo means entering in – there’s a sovereign timeline – a kairos timeline God has between these decades and passing from the old to the new is a key thing. It’s not so much all the experiences that you had in the past; it’s in spite of the experiences that you have, you cross over into the new in the right way. You do that because, in spite of your past, God will use you in your future…

Have no regrets in this past decade but move into the new free from the past…Let go of the status quo and be risk-takers in Him.

This season, this decade, is a time for women to come into their purpose fully…the stronghold of Baal in America is coming down – the Spirit of the Lord is contending with it…that stronghold oppresses women from walking in their destiny…you’re going to see signs like (women) flourishing in their prophetic gifting.

Anyone that’s walking with God is going to soar in this season…if we do this the right way in this season, this decade could be the most powerfully, influential life-changing of society of anything we’ve ever seen. Let yourself dream. Let yourself see it…

(from Linda Johnson)

It is His good pleasure to reveal His secrets to prophetic people, we need to ask. We need to bind hindrances to receiving, and to hearing, including spiritual blindness and deafness.   

I Peter 3 and I Peter 4: consider not the intense trials and the things that you’re walking in now, because in the midst of that you’ll be a light to others. As you’re a light to others – whether it’s in the job, in the family or in the midst of other things you do – as you endure that, you find My blessings. In the midst of the intensity, His blessings (His divine enablement) are there.

Isaiah 2: 3, 4 & Acts 12: where you felt or believed that you haven’t heard clearly, start confessing that you hear clearly. The rain is gone. Where ever you’ve had some challenges in your walk, this is the time – this is the hour, this is the kairos – that we pass from one place to the next – that we can see clearly. God is saying, “The spiritual follows after the natural. Unless you took the time to hear Me before, and prepared your hearts in advance for change…it’s a bright sunshiny day.”

Bill Johnson 1.3.10 am

…He says, “I’m showing up and I’m doing something now, by My Spirit, that’s different than the way that you’ve been living for the season that you’ve been in.”

… You’re going to step into some new dimensions as a body of believers – not just (your leaders), but you. God’s waiting on you guys to step forward into your purpose and destiny as believers to walk in that authority and transform your world for His glory.

… I’m changing the patterns and it’s going to cause a change on the inside of you. You’re going to change the status quo.

… Change something in the patterns of the way you’re living – we’re going into the new. “I’m doing something new – something you haven’t experienced before. The thing I want you to know is that I’m in your future and I’m downloading to you what you need in this season – the next part – the next season that you’re living in.”

… You’ve got to be an open epistle, read of all men. You’ve got to learn to be transparent with one another at Abundant Life.

… This new thing that we’re coming into is not about putting the apostles at a greater impact. This is what He’s saying to you at Abundant Life specifically…I saw (Pastor Ted) this morning holding two keys in your hand – one is a key of David, to unlock; and the other is a key of Authority, concerning local and state government…I heard the Lord say this, “One is going to unlock some provision from heaven that you’re looking for because,” He says for me to tell you (the body) here, “I have hidden resources at your disposal. One of the keys (Pastor Ted) holds in his hands is to unlock hidden resources to bring them forth. Intercession needs to kick up [because] the other is the key of authority to bring change concerning government circumstances.”

… God’s saying this about Abundant Life, “I’ve got hidden resources – I’ve got new ministries I’m going to birth. They are in seed form now…you’re pregnant with something.” There’s an expectancy He’s putting on you that’s going to propel you through the next decade. You’ve got two more buildings and facilities that are empty, waiting for you to get your faith and heart in line to possess it. It’s not waiting on Ted and Bonnie – it’s waiting on you.

Media’s coming your way…He’s going to put some media opportunities in your hands supernaturally. It’s going to happen in spite of finance. It’s going to happen because when you step in and say, “Yes, we are in one accord (like 1Peter 3)” – here comes the provision of the future into the now.

… He’s saying to you, “You’re going to see clearly what’s ahead. It’s your decade. I tell you this is Abundant Life’s decade! You’re going to come to a place of abundance – God’s saying that you need to get your sights set on this building being paid for. You need to start declaring, “We’re blessed. We have a building that’s paid for!”

… “I’m giving you keys of authority – two keys are in your hand…key of David and a key to change governmental circumstance – a key of government.”

… The people of this house in this decade are history makers now – not three years from now – now!

The Lord says, “Over the next 90 days I’m opening the heavens over this church family. You’re going to see signs and wonders and miracles that you haven’t seen the likes of before. You’re going to get caught up in My Spirit in such a way.” He says, “Tonight your praises are touching My heart and I’m commissioning My angels to go to prepare the way for you to soar with Me.” He says, “Deferred hope is being broken tonight.” He says to tell you, “It’s time to rise and shine. It’s time to come up to where I am.” I heard the Lord tell you this: this ship is about to leave the harbor and everybody needs to get onboard. He says, “You need to get your brothers and sisters, your parents and children and you need to get everybody onboard because,” the Lord says, “I’m going to take you to a place in Me that you’ve never been before. You’re going to see My glory begin to fall upon you and you’re going to walk on the streets and people are going to say, ‘Oh my goodness! Who are you? Where have you been? There’s a presence around you!’” He says, “That’s My glory that’s about to shine on you in this house – and it’s going to shine on this city. You’re going to see some signs in the natural that the economic depression and repression is over because prosperity is coming over My sons and daughters.”

He says, “There are some of you that have been looking for jobs – you’re going to find them. There are some of you that have businesses pent up on the inside of you and I’m going to come and you’re going to step into a new place in Me. You’re going to step into a new place in Me because you came up to where I am and I’m going to allow you to see it through My eyes.”

He’s going to do some things for you and the limitations that have been upon your soul are broken tonight. He says, “New vision is imparted to you.”

I saw a vision of Pastor Ted captaining a cruise ship and he had his hand on the wheel, directing. There are going to be two or three shifts in some areas. I saw you navigating this to the right for a bit, getting through some things and around some things – then you were turning it back to the left. And the Lord says, “Watch the month of April – watch the month of April. There’s something dynamic that’s going to explode by My spirit in here.” These next 90 days are all just signs and wonders to get your hearts prepared. Watch April. The Lord says, “Watch April closely – that as we go through these things there are going to be set aside divinely appointed times over the next 90 days for you to come together to meet with Me. Come and meet with Me.” He says, “Come and dine – it’s supper time. Don’t come with an agenda. Come to seek My face and you will see Me in ways and discover Me in ways you’ve never seen Me before.”

The Lord says, “Son, there’s something on the inside of you that’s been there for 25 and 30 years. Part of it you know and part of it you don’t. It’s going to come forth from the inside, out – and the glory’s going to hit this place in a way that you’ve never seen before.” It’s an exponential multiplication that the Lord is bringing.

 Corporate Prayer 1/2010

Pastor Ted

The Spirit of the Lord says, “I am activating within you an anointing for acts of expectancy. You will go beyond the boundaries of that which you’ve seen in the previous season but you shall step into them with an anointing of expectancy. You shall expect the very thing that your spirit sees and your heart cries out for. In that place there shall be a new form and new patterns and even a new ways of thinking within the boundaries of that space.” For the Lord says, “That space is not a space to go to remain empty, but it’s a space to fill up with that which is coming in this season. But you will not step into the space expecting mysteries to come as just mysteries, but you will step into that place because a mystery has moved upon you. You will step into that place with an expectancy to see that which you are continually in the process of clearly seeing.

“There’s going to come a new vision, a new sight, a new clarity – and that new clarity is going to bring a new confidence in your heart, a new confidence in your footsteps and a new confidence in the direction that you face.” The Lord says, “I’m going to cause there to be an abundant measure from within – and the abundant measure from within is going to reach out even into lean places and cause there to be a spirit of abundance like never before.

“For this is a new season, a new day and there’s a stretching forth of that which would cause there to be a calling forth of heaven’s way. As it is in heaven so it shall be in the place that you stand, in the place of grace – so it shall come forth and My will shall come to pass. You shall see as never before that My will is a body and that body shall take on dimensions, and take on new stature and even take on new shape.”

The Lord says, “Where there has been a shape that has been lethargy, there is going to come a shape of energy. Parts of the body are going to shift. Parts that have been rich in belly fat are going to become rich in shoulder muscle.” The Lord says, “There’s going to come a shift. There’s even going to come a change in the natural appearance of the place – and the natural appearance of your lives. It won’t be for natural appearances that it will happen, it will be for spiritual expectations. But because of that passion will come and it will take on a new shape. Don’t fear the shifting. Don’t fear as though you are shaping into something that is different than what has been. Have an understanding that that which is shaping is really shaping up – shaping up for the purpose of reaching out, for the purpose of rising up to the time of My name to be proclaimed like never before.

“Be encouraged that this is the time and the hour and receive this anointing and this grace of expectancy.”

Roger Coleman

The Lord says, “I have caused the past and the future to dwell in the present. Even now, if you will reach in, if you will live in the now, I will cause you to break forth. I have caused even time to stand still in the recent past, but I will loose that time in this season and I will cause the clocks to go forward again. I will cause you to prosper from the place of your purpose, for this will be a year of perfecting My vision. You will be living from the place of My purpose,” says your Father, “but I will cause you to perfect vision. I will give you eyes to see the treasures of heaven in this season. Where in the past you have looked at things and you have seen the dirt, the clay and the mire, I will cause you to see the treasure – for this is a season of My gold. Last year was a season of life and springing forth, but this year is a season of My gold – I will reveal My glory in My house, and I will cause the prosperity of the nations to come forth.”

Barb Athearn

We have already come through a doorway. It takes a moment for our eyes to see (like when you go into a new room and your eyes have to adjust). But God says that from here on we have already come through that door and everything we see is with different eyes – with His eyes. He is going to add to this house and He’s going to multiply to this house.

Pastor Ted

I hear the Lord saying, “There are certain things that you would deem as ‘worthless’ or ‘nothing’. But I, the Lord, say that everything has a purpose, and sometimes My purpose is nothing.” The Lord says, “I am going to give you great peace in My decisions. I’m going to give you great peace in the boundaries that I’ve set before you.” God says, “That’s what I’m doing in this season – I’m giving you boundaries. I’ve given you boundaries to be you like never before. Not to be you to be seekers of you, but to be you as who I’ve called you to be and who I’ve birthed you to be – because all of you is a seeker of Me. That’s who you were founded to be even in My heart. You were founded to be that which is a passion and a fire and a seeker of Me in your pure state. That is your DNA. So I, the Lord, am saying that I have prepared a place for you and every place that I have prepared for you is diverse to that place.  What you would call ‘worthless’ I call worthy. What you would call ‘nothing’ I call full. Everything that I do, and everything that I do on your behalf, is filled with great value – and you are going to learn to value the moments of nothing. You’re going to learn to value the moments of everything. You’re going to discern that they are not different – that they are as full as the other. You’re going to learn to be filled in your soul and in your spirit and in your very being that is the culmination of that being touchable and tangible. You’re going to reveal that I am good all the time – and that I consider you Mine, all the time. I know your needs, and in My meeting your needs I fulfill even My purposes.  So, learn to live in the boundaries that I give but understand that each day is new and each moment is different. One day may seem like nothing – don’t be found the next day in staying in that which you thought was nothing because it was everything – yet tomorrow is totally different. I’m going to cause you to live in the moment, but I’m going to cause you to live for destiny. You’re going to find that each day, each room, each footstep, each place is filled with abundance – not what you would judge as abundance but what I’ve determined. All things are abundant in Me,” says the Lord.

Janet Robinson

God has been speaking a lot to me about ‘joyful expectancy’, and tonight I’m seeing the 90 days that Bill pronounced very related to the 9 months of pregnancy. We were told 3 months and there are three trimesters in the 9 months of pregnancy – and I really believe that’s the picture of what God released. The 90 days – there is conception, growth, expectancy and birthing in April, like Bill said… Romans 8…as we go through these 90 days of pregnancy we’ll be enlarged every day, no matter what, every day to be expectant. Just like when you’re pregnant going through the stages – today the heart beat and then this and then this and then this – putting it together. There are new things that we can feel and that we’re expecting but we don’t quite know what they’re going to look like, but it’s as sure as a baby growing in the womb. We know some things about it…but we don’t know fully what it looks like – there’s just expectancy, growing and enlarging. 

Ciaran Zornes

I wonder what it will look like – it’s going to be amazing!

Pastor Ted

The Lord says, “Did I not say that I would remove the headship of promiscuity and legalism? Did I not say that I would bring forth a grassroots revolution that would be filled with My speech, the speaking of My word and the testimony of that word? That is coming forth in this season and in this time. There’s a revolution. Even as I declared to you this weekend, love wins. I am moving in the midst of My body in this time in a place where something is not yet to come, but something has come, and another season is coming. There has been a birthing – even this weekend there was a birthing in your midst – and that which was completed this weekend has set the steps for another aspect of My completion, which will set the steps for another aspect of My completion. This move of God will be fulfilled and the Spirit of Knowing and the intimacy and the power of love will be revealed and then there will come a great declaration that changes many things.

The Lord says, “Do not seek a season that you are not in. Seek the season that you are in. The season that you are in is that you would love one another. In this decade there shall come forth such unity through the power of love for one another that’s going to come as a great impacting thing for the community in which you live. You will understand a grassroots revolution that is the power of love. It will not be seen in the power of legalism – nor will it be seen in the power of mere liberty – but it will be seen in the power of love that brings both boundaries and license. It will be seen in the power of love that has the ability to stretch beyond boundaries that are set but has the desire to pull in the reigns and seek every boundary that can be seen.” The Lord says, “That power of love will come forth. You are in the right season and the right place. I speak this not just to you as a body, but I speak this to My body and I declare that My body is on time and My body is in place and My body has birthed something and My body is about to birth something and My body is yet to birth something even to the fullest. This will be a great time of testimony of that which deals with the roots of bitterness. The root of bitterness has set up the stronghold of the headship of legalism. The root of bitterness has set up the stronghold of the headship of promiscuity. But I am in the business of healing the heart. So even now I have entered into your heart that I might heal not just the Body but that I might heal the heart of the earth by the power of My Body. So in this time you shall see great testimonies of the power of My love,” says the Spirit of the Lord.

Theresa Moultray

A dream regarding pregnancy and sonship: We are all pregnant. God showed me Mary going to Elizabeth to help her in her last months of pregnancy. We all need to come alongside one another in love and in growth in the body of Christ to assist and aid one another. Things will develop and things will grow and there will be the birthing, but God says that often times we come alongside in duty, we come alongside because we feel like we’re supposed to – but God says to come alongside out of love, His love. Let that birth inside you – let that be your unction, let that be your motivation. Love is what God is – let’s bring that forth. There are birthing pangs in Christ for the body to love – love – love! Love one another. Holy Spirit says, “Bring forth the witness of God – love! It’s who He is!”

 Jonathan Hanson

I keep hearing the word ‘sound’ – sensing a sound…the sound that is in this house right now is ‘purpose’…it’s not about what you do. The sound is – we all need to be us…the disciples belonged before they believed…there is a sound that’s going to come out of this house…I’ve got it in my spirit but I don’t know how to put it in words…it’s going to be a little tough for us because our culture doesn’t believe in this. Our culture believes it’s all about what you do, what car you have, the house you live in…we’re supposed to be us, absolutely us. The other thing that’s happening is ‘join together’. Do not be on the outskirts right now.

Pastor Ted

I can see clearly now the rain is gone. I can see all obstacles in my way. Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind. It’s gonna be a bright, bright sunshiny day.

I think I can make it now the pain is gone. All of the bad feelings have disappeared. Here is the rainbow I’ve been praying for. It’s gonna be a bright, bright sunshiny day.

Look around you – there’s nothin’ but blue skies.

Look straight ahead – there’s nothin’ but blue skies.

I can see clearly now the rain is gone. I can see all obstacles in my way. Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind. It’s gonna be a bright, bright sunshiny day.

It’s gonna be a bright, bright sunshiny day.

Corporate Prayer  4/2010

Pastor Ted

I hear the Spirit of the Lord saying, “This is a season and a time when there’s going to be a new awakening unto Me,” says God. “A new awakening unto Me not for the things that I am about to do but for the things that I am doing. You are standing in the midst of that which is surrounding you.”

God says, “I am at work on your behalf. Even now I am moving things around you. Can you see it? Can you see it?” The Lord says, “I’m going to open up your eyes with an awakening like you’ve never had before, to be aware of My presence. There’s going to be, not a hunger that comes as a longing for Me to come, but a hunger that comes because I have set a table and that table is filled with My presence. My presence is bringing new flavors. My presence is bringing new seasonings. My presence is bringing new experiences that you’ve never even known before.”

The Lord says, “This season that you’ve entered into will be a season unlike any season that you’ve entered into before. Even now I am unrolling the carpet for the miraculous – and I’m causing the miraculous to come forth in new measures.” The Lord says, “Do not expect the miracles of the past, for the miracles of the past are the miracles of the past.” The Lord says, “There are new things that are about to spring forth – new things that you have not seen, you have not heard, you have not thought. I am not speaking about miracles that will come as favor in your midst and merely bless you. I am declaring miracles that will cause pathways to change before you – the things that would even cause seas to part and dry land to appear – the things that even cause the arm of the oppressor to be broken and deliverance to come for My people. What seemed like it would take a long season is going to come forth now from an eternal place for there’s going to be a supernatural release for My grace in the measure for the miraculous. That miraculous is going to include the provision and vision, and vision and provision. The two will go hand in hand for they have been expanding in the earth. Stretch out the tent pegs of your heart. Stretch out the tent pegs of your mind. But more than looking to that which is beyond, look to that which surrounds you. Look that I have surrounded you with My goodness and have declared that this is an hour of awakening unto Me,” says the Lord.

Barb Athearn

Yesterday I heard the Lord say, “I am an all-inclusive God.” …everything that you want to do is there and it’s all paid for.

Pastor Ted

The Lord says, “I’m bringing forth a tapestry of a new sound. I’m bringing forth a tapestry of a new aroma. I’m bringing forth a tapestry of a new light. Your worship is going to take on a new dimension,” says the Lord. “The sound of worship will come as a sound of love. Love will be the thing that will overpower you. There will be a wave that rises up from within you. There will be a wave that rises up from without you that even expands to influences from you. Get ready! The remaining part of this year is going to be a season of great increase – increase of My presence, increase of My reality in you. It will take on the dimension of worship – not just in that which you see on a Sunday morning, not just in that which you experience in music – but that which comes from your heart every day. It will well up and there will be an increasing sound of celebration and favor as you gather together,” says the Lord.

 

Roger Coleman

Freedom – Freedom – Freedom – Freedom! “For there is a shout coming that will take down the walls not only of the enemy from without but it shall take down the walls of the enemies within. The unity that shall come, and the peace, will expand and expand and expand…a peace and a freedom shall come from that,” says the Lord.

Will Price

“For this is your inheritance,” says the Lord. “It’s an inheritance of love. It’s an inheritance of faith. It’s an inheritance from a King. It’s an inheritance of the Kingdom. It’s going to expand and it’s going to increase. It’s going to do things like you’ve never seen before because it’s your inheritance. I’ve given it to you. It’s your birthright. It’s yours by divine right. It’s an inheritance,” says God. It’s an inheritance. So reach out, reach out! Receive your inheritance. Receive your inheritance. Receive your inheritance. Love, faith and belief! Receive your inheritance in love and faith and belief! Receive your inheritance in love and faith and belief! Receive your inheritance in love and faith and belief! Because it’s from God – hallelujah, it’s from God.

I saw God start a fire with dead grass – the dead grass is gone and the green is popping up.

 

Terese O’Neil

The Lord says, “This is the time for full birth.” There are some that are used to having miscarriages or abortions in the spirit, so they always feel like by the time they get the full blessing it’s gone, the enemy comes from underneath them and takes it. God says, “This is the time for full blessings, full birth. Get ready. Expect it. It is time for full birth – now! No more of the half. It’s going to be the full one.”
