Mighty Men and Women of Valor: God Says, "You Are Armed And Dangerous" Elaine Tavolacci December 1, 2016 In Psalm 18, David began by giving thanks, praise adoration, and telling the Lord that he loves Him. He said that death surrounded him and he was afraid. He went on to say that he called upon the Lord, and He heard him. Then the earth trembled and quaked, and the foundations of the mountains shook as God became angry at the enemy for attacking David. The Scripture then describes how the Lord parted the heavens and came down; He shot His arrows and scattered the enemy, with great bolts of lightning he routed them. He reached down from on high and took hold of him. David said that the Lord has recompensed him according to his righteousness and clean hands. Then David began declaring the authority that the Lord had given him. He said that he could run against a troop, and by God he could leap over a wall. You Are Armed and Dangerous! The Holy Spirit has been showing me for the past few weeks that many of you feel defeated and discouraged because the warfare has been fierce and the battles have been intense. Many of you are also sensing darkness in the atmosphere; but Jesus wants you to know that He has equipped you to be armed and dangerous for such a time as this. He has given you authority to quench every fiery dart that the enemy sends against you. Although the attacks have been unrelenting, you have to recognize that it is because you are a threat to the enemy's camp. The apostle Paul said in Ephesians 6:10-11 to, "Be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. Put on the whole armor of God that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil." If there wasn't a battle, then the Lord wouldn't have given us the armor. We are not wrestling against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. The only way to win the battle is spiritually—to fight with our spiritual weapons. As you simply yield to the Holy Spirit, pray and read His Word daily, you will overcome every obstacle that comes against you. The enemy is trying to steal, kill, and destroy; but Jesus wants to give you life more abundantly. The enemy is trying to derail you from what God has created you to do, but you have authority over all the power of the enemy and by no means shall anything harm you says the Lord. "It is God who arms me with strength, and makes my way perfect. He makes my feet like the feet of deer, and sets me on my high places. He teaches my hands to make war, so that my arms can bend a bow of bronze. You have also given me the shield of Your salvation; Your right hand has held me up,Your gentleness has made me great. You enlarged my path under me, so my feet did not slip. I have pursued my enemies and overtaken them; neither did I turn back again till they were destroyed. I have wounded them, so that they could not rise; they have fallen under my feet. "For You have armed me with strength for the battle; You have subdued under me those who rose up against me. You have also given me the necks of my enemies, so that I destroyed those who hated me. They cried out, but there was none to save; even to the Lord, but He did not answer them. Then I beat them as fine as the dust before the wind; I cast them out like dirt in the streets." Psalm 18:32-42 "Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you." Luke 10:19 "Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. Put on the whole armor of God that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.Therefore take up the whole armor of God that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. "Stand therefore, having girded your waist with truth, having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace; above all, taking the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God; praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints." Ephesians 6:10-18 Wanted: Mighty Men and Women of Valor In the natural it may appear as if the churches are dwindling down in membership, Christian friends are falling away, great men and women of God are passing away, and believers are declining in number. But the truth is, that God has a remnant that He has chosen for His end-time army to usher in the greatest harvest in history. The fields are white unto harvest and it is about time that we take our place in what we have been called to do. Many of you feel inadequate, unqualified, or uneducated to be used by God. There was a man in the Bible named Gideon who was fearful and weak in his own sight, but mighty in the eyes of God. The name Gideon means"Mighty warrior." Gideon was called to deliver Israel from the Midianites, but one day Gideon was hiding as they were attacking Israel. God had sent an angel to him saying, "The Lord is with you, mighty man of valor"(Judges 6:12). Gideon replied with a question, "If the Lord is with us, why did all these terrible things happen?" (Judges 6:13.) The Lord responded, "Surely I will be with you, and you shall defeat the Midianites as one man" (Judges 6:14). After this encounter with the angel, Gideon went and rescued Israel from the enemy with an army which the Lord had reduced from thirty two thousand men, to three hundred men. The Lord also allowed Gideon to see into the enemies' camp. God is With You Mighty Men and Women of Valor! The Holy Spirit is showing me that many of you are fearful and you feel as if an army is rising up against you, but Jesus calls you a mighty man/woman of valor. You will defeat every enemy that attempts to overtake you, and you will be used in a great way. The Lord says, "I'm looking for the mighty men and women of valor. They are those who will take heed to My word, and see themselves as I have created them to be. I am calling forth My warriors who are not fearful or fainthearted. I am looking for those who will walk in faith and are not moved by adverse circumstances. "They are those men and women who are willing to go to the front lines regardless of what they hear and see in the natural. They will take Me at My word as they rescue and deliver the captives. Their minds are sharp and their thinking is intuitive, therefore they are not moved by bad reports but will continue to advance into all that I have called them to do. "They do not fear the unknown and are not afraid of what lies ahead. They know that I have given them everything that they need to accomplish My purpose and plan for their life.They will not become weary as the enemy seems to be battering and relentless. As they seek My counsel, I will give them clear understanding and keen discernment. They will seek Me for wisdom and direction when they are in doubt. "I am looking for those who will not tolerate idolatry. They are those who will destroy the god of Baal and the goddess of Asherah. They will sacrifice everything for My name's sake and they are willing to burn their bridges behind them and forget the mistakes from their past. To them I will expose the plans of the adversary. They will discern the enemy's tactics and recognize his schemes. "They will then understand the assignments that the enemy has brought against them to distract them, and remove them from their purpose and destiny. I will give them discernment to thwart the plans of the enemy over their life. This discernment that I give will bring wisdom and direction. But this discernment that I give will not come without reading My Word. This discernment will not come without prayer and intimacy with Me. Store My Word in your heart. In the days ahead you will look back and understand that everything that you have done was not in vain. "Though there will be armies ahead of you, I have already made a way of escape. Don't allow your circumstances to rule your thinking, but align your thoughts with My Word. Do not allow discouragement and despair to wear you down. I have created you and called you for such a time as this. Stand strong in the face of adversity and do not be confused about what you see in the natural. "As you pray and believe, know that your prayers are powerful and effective. I did not call you to mediocrity but I have called you to conqueror difficult situations that arise abruptly. Submit your lives in total surrender to Me, ask of Me and I will give you the wisdom, discernment and understanding for the days ahead. Just as I sent the angel to Gideon with a message, I say the same to you, rise up you mighty man/ woman of valor and carry out the assignment that I have for you," says the Lord. "Now the Angel of the Lord came and sat under the terebinth tree which was in Ophrah, which belonged to Joash the Abiezrite, while his son Gideon threshed wheat in the winepress, in order to hide it from the Midianites. And the Angel of the Lord appeared to him, and said to him, 'The Lord is with you, you mighty man of valor!'" Judges 6:11-12 "Gideon arrived just as a man was telling a friend his dream. 'I had a dream,' he was saying. 'A round loaf of barley bread came tumbling into the Midianite camp. It struck the tent with such force that the tent overturned and collapsed.' His friend responded, 'This can be nothing other than the sword of Gideon son of Joash, the Israelite. God has given the Midianites and the whole camp into his hands.' When Gideon heard the dream and its interpretation, he bowed down and worshiped. He returned to the camp of Israel and called out, 'Get up! The Lord has given the Midianite camp into your hands.'" Judges 7:13-15 "For you see your calling, brethren, that not many wise according to the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called. But God has chosen the foolish things of the world to put to shame the wise, and God has chosen the weak things of the world to put to shame the things which are mighty; and the base things of the world and the things which are despised God has chosen, and the things which are not, to bring to nothing the things that are, that no flesh should glory in His presence." 1 Corinthians 1:26-29 Elaine Tavolacci A Word in Season AWordinSeason.info ELAINE TAVOLACCI resides in Staten Island, New York.

The Grace Down Edie Bayer November 30, 2016 I had a vision in church a few weeks before the elections. In this vision, the Lord placed me on the sidelines of a football game. The two teams were faced off on the field, helmet to helmet across the line of scrimmage, but I couldn’t tell them apart! They were wearing the exact same colors – white, blue and little bits of yellow. As I stood watching them, I clearly heard the Lord announce: “IT’S FIFTH AND TEN!” In the natural, in the game of American football this is not possible. Unless there is an error or a violation of some kind, there are only four ‘downs’, or chances, for the team with possession of the ball to successfully move it ten-yards down the field. Often during a game one will hear the announcer say that it is “first and ten”, meaning it is first down with ten-yards to go. Hearing “fourth and ten” is less common, but it happens. The point is this — there are not FIVE downs! There are only four downs – four chances – to get it right, make the play and move toward winning the game. This is the goal of both teams! No team gets FIVE chances to move the ball … that is, unless you are on God’s team! I believe that is why both teams wore the same uniform — because God was showing me that we are ALL on the same team! I clearly heard the Lord say it was “Fifth and Ten”, meaning, it was fifth down with ten yards to go. That means that God has given us a GRACE DOWN – another chance to go the whole distance! The Lord has given us a supernatural opportunity – an extra, unprecedented chance to get it right! God blessed us with a Christian President in Donald J. Trump. Because we now have a pro-Christian leader, who is also pro-Israel, we can expect God to bless both him and all of us! That is the hand of God at work – the “Grace Down” in action! God turned it all around to work for our benefit. “We are assured and know that [God being a partner in their labor] all things work together and are [fitting into a plan] for good to and for those who love God and are called according to [His] design and purpose (Rom. 8:28).” I believe another reason God placed us all in the same uniform is because in His eyes, there is no difference between us. He sees us as all the same! “There is no longer Jew or Gentile, slave or free, male and female. For you are all one in Christ Jesus (Gal. 3:28).” Even though for a while as a body we were divided, God still saw us as all on the same team. Now, the division is over! The map of the states that voted for President Trump was covered in red. No one can miss the obvious picture of the blood of Jesus covering most of the map of the USA, right down the center of the country! This is the only division God will allow – for Himself to be in the middle of everything that we speak, think and do. So, what do we do now? We have another chance. What are all the things that you have said to yourself, “If I could only do it over again I would (fill in the blank)…” Good news, because today is that day! You have another chance! You have another opportunity to love someone; another opportunity to bless someone. You now have another opportunity to be faithful, diligent and supportive. You have another opportunity to remain vocal about your faith, and if you haven’t been, get vocal! God has given you another chance. You have yet another opportunity to use your giftings for the Kingdom. You have another opportunity to tell someone about Christ. God has given us another chance to do the things that He has asked us to do, to help usher in Revival. As God said to Bob Jones, “Have you learned how to love?” That is our most urgent reason for another chance! Thank you Jesus! God has seen fit to give us another chance, the Grace Down.

God is Restoring You and Healing Your Broken Places Katie Barker November 29, 2016 Severing the Roots of Brokenness The Lord desires that we live in complete freedom and see ourselves as He sees us; not believing the lies that the enemy tries to make us believe about ourselves. Recently, the Lord gave me a vision that spoke of the desire of Jesus to sever the roots of our brokenness and pain, so we can walk in wholeness and the fullness of all He has for us. In the vision I saw a Believer who had "tender" spots on their heart. These spots were small and couldn't really be seen until I looked closely. They had a patch over them and the tender area seemed to be covered over and dealt with. I then saw the Lord gently pull the patch off the tender area and expose the roots that had grown under the spot. From the surface the tender area looked small and inconsequential, but from underneath I could see the roots had wound their way deep into the person's heart. I noticed names written on the roots such as shame, guilt and fear. I knew these roots were attacking the person's self-worth and identity and were causing areas of brokenness and pain. As the Lord lovingly exposed the roots to the person, I saw them really look at the spot with clarity for the first time. They were shocked and surprised to see those roots attached to the tender spot and to see how extensively the roots had grown. Healing to the Broken Places The Lord showed me that people had situations in their lives in the past that had caused them pain and brokenness but they had not handed these situations over to the Lord for healing. They had thought they had dealt with the situation themselves and moved on but roots had grown from these areas and the person wasn't even aware of the extent of the damage and pain they had caused. These roots had changed the way the person viewed themselves in that area of their lives. The person was listening to the lies of the enemy and these roots were the means of attacking their true worth and identity. As the Lord cast light on these areas and exposed the roots to the person, they were able to purposefully hand these over to the Lord. He then cut the roots, healed the pain and brokenness and filled the person with His peace, love and freedom. An exchange took place – the person handed over their guilt, shame and fear and the Lord gave them freedom and peace. This encounter with the Lord caused the person to see the enormity of His love for them. His desire had been to expose the area of pain and brokenness in order for them to receive His healing touch so they could walk in complete wholeness. There was now no area of their life holding them back. Their true identity had been restored and they now saw themselves the way the Lord saw them. God Wants to Restore You and Make You Whole The Lord wants to make us whole in every area of our lives. Jesus came to destroy the works of the devil (1 John 3:8) and to restore His children to the fullness to which He created them. The Word tells us that He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds (Psalm 147:3) and the Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit (Psalm 34:18). We need to leave our worries in the hands of Jesus knowing He cares for us and wants to take those things from us. 1 Peter 5:7, "Give all your worries and cares to God, for He cares about you." Matthew 11:28, "Then Jesus said, 'Come to Me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest.'" It is also vital to see ourselves for who we really are in Christ. We can't believe the lies of the enemy, but need to see ourselves as Christ sees us. We need to stand on what the Word tells us: • We are completely and wonderfully free (Galatians 5:1). • We have the peace of God that guards our heart and mind (Philippians 4:7). • We are no longer slaves but children of God (Galatians 4:7). • We are intimate friends of Jesus (John 15:15). • We are God's poetry/masterpiece (Ephesians 2:10). • We are complete in Him (Colossians 2:10). • We are passionately loved by God (Romans 5:8). • We are more than conquerors through Him who loves us (Romans 8:37). • We have not been given a spirit of fear, but of power, love and a sound mind (2 Timothy 1:7). • We are co-heirs with Christ (Romans 8:17). • We are new creatures in Christ (2 Corinthians 5:17). Submit the hurt and brokenness to Jesus and accept the peace and freedom He will give you in return.

The Camels are Coming Lana Vawser November 28, 2016 Over the past few weeks the Lord has really been highlighting "camels" to me. I first came across the "divine highlight" in Isaiah 60:6 "Herds of camels will cover your land, young camels of Midian and Ephah and all from Sheba will come bearing incense and gold and proclaiming the praise of the Lord." Since then I have been seeing them everywhere and recently a hotel we stayed in our room was 606!! The Lord is speaking! I have been pondering this word for a few weeks and really wanting to hear the heart of the Lord. I was told Chuck Pierce had a word a number of years ago about "The CAMELS coming". So I wondered why I was hearing it now and seeing them everywhere. As I sat with the Lord on this I felt the Lord saying that "THE CAMELS ARE COMING WITH INCREASE" and I saw them coming carrying a DOUBLE PORTION. They were coming to bring provision, help and blessing. What these CAMELS are bringing are the finest, most excellent provisions of heaven that we have ever seen as the body of Christ. The manifestation of this abundant provision will manifest in MANY ways, not just materially throughout the body of Christ. The Lord also highlighted Isaiah 60:5 to me "Then you will be radiant, and your heart will thrill and rejoice; because of the abundance of the sea will be turned to you, the wealth of the nations will come to you." There is a turning of provision, abundance and wealth of the nations that will be handed to the Church, to extend the Kingdom of God upon the earth. To help the poor, the care for the widows and orphans, to see greater extension and generosity/provision flow FROM the Church. I felt this tremendous shift in the area of finances and provision in the body of Christ. The Lord is highlighting stewardship in this season and teaching us in greater ways how to steward what He has given to us in every area of life. He's looking for excellence, purity and integrity in our stewardship. As we continue to remain teachable, moving in integrity, humility, character and surrendered, He is about to add more, bring greater increase not just financially, but in many areas. Where there has been "lack upon lack", these CAMELS COMING are declaring "ABUNDANT PROVISION for EVERY GOD BREATHED VISION". THE NATIONS WILL COME IN!!!! The Lord showed me that in the CAMELS coming, the increase and abundance of provision, wealth and help, that there will be MAJOR impact on the nations. God's heart is always for the nations, but in the last few years and especially this season, I have felt His yearning for the nations more than ever. Right now, there is greater fear and upheaval in many nations, but the Lord spoke to me recently that He is doing a great rearranging and reshuffling in the nations. He is moving things in a way that we do not expect but it releasing a DOMINO EFFECT amongst the nations. Breakthrough, upon breakthrough upon breakthrough and the CAMELS coming in are bringing the provision so the Church can take her place to serve, influence and lead in nations in ways we have never seen. God is bringing the help, the tools, the provision so when the "call comes" we step in with THE GREATEST ANSWER - JESUS!!!!! and physical provision to to bless, extend and assist. Not only is God about to add the provision and resources needed to extend His vision that He has placed in the hearts of His people that they have been carrying in their hearts through the fire and desert, and it has been tested and tried over and over, the provision will be greater than has ever been imagined. (Ephesians 3:20) STAY LOW AND CRYING OUT FOR WISDOM IN THE ABUNDANT PROVISION The abundance that is coming in is going to require a greater level of dependence upon Jesus, surrender to Him and sensitivity to what He is saying. There will be a need for wisdom and discernment like never before, but DO NOT FEAR! He is releasing grace and He will give wisdom to those who ask (James 1:5) to know how to steward this greater increase, provision and abundance. Many of you will be catapulted into a new realm of influence in the physical area of finances and abundance, others doors are about to open that will place you in positions of influence, others of you - your voice is about to get louder, others of you will be given ABUNDANT provision to start organisations and centres to help the homeless, to feed the poor and care for orphans. In the midst of the influence of the Church increasing, I felt such a strong message from the Lord that the enemy will come in and attempt to disqualify and say to many "You don't have the abundance they have" or "You don't have the position they have", or "You are not as gifted as that person" - amongst those lies and that noise, I heard the Lord speak louder above it all "ALL ARE QUALIFIED AND INFLUENCERS BECAUSE YOU LIVE IN ME". God is awakening His people to the truth that we are POWERFUL in Him! All of our influence looks different, but YOU are called to GO and change the atmospheres and bring the love, truth and hope of Jesus EVERYWHERE you go. You are having impact and influence for Jesus EVERYWHERE. Trust Him that where He positions you and the sphere of influence He has given you and increases to you in this season is A PERFECT FIT for you! Do not try and be someone else or move in what someone else has. The world needs YOU and Jesus IN YOU!!! His plans for you are beyond your wildest dreams (Ephesians 3:20, 1 Corinthians 2:9) WATER POURERS!!! The Lord began to speak to me about many being in a season of wilderness, and many have felt like they have been in the desert and they have been living upon their "stored up revelation and history" with the Lord. Many feeling like they have almost been in a season of WANDERING and WONDERING what's going on. I felt the Lord wanting to encourage you that He has been building endurance, strength and character in you in the desert, in that wilderness place and you are coming out with a greater CAPACITY to carry greater revelation of Him and His Word, greater mantles that have been birthed in that deep difficult place where you are constantly pushed and pressed and find that deeper place in Him in the midst of pain. In the desert and wilderness where you have learnt to store and carry what the Lord has given you and press in for MORE amongst adverse conditions, the Lord is bringing you out of the desert and you will be WATER POURERS for others. What you have gleaned and carried in the desert places is about to be ignited and flow out of you. His living water is about to flood out of you. There is a great birthing upon the Church right now. I saw this pure, BIBLICALLY based revelation that has been found in Jesus in the desert flooding out in conversations, in books, in teaching, in songs, in cds, in writings, in sermon series, in prayer gatherings bringing incredible healing, salvation and deliverance. Freedom is about to explode in proportions across the world like we have never seen. Get ready to hear more and more crazy, amazing, wild testimonies of the power, healing and love of Jesus and how He saves, delivers and sets free. Where the enemy has attempted in many ways to "stop His flow" through you, He is declaring over you that you will be a PURE FLOW AS YOU CONTINUE TO LIVE LOW. The CAMELS ARE COMING!!! There is ANOTHER game hanger moment upon us!!! What these "CAMELS" are carrying to you from the Lord WILL CHANGE EVERYTHING!!! A shift in gears, a whole new realm of provision, a new level of manifestation of His goodness and kindness, the help of God that you cannot even envision. I know many have been seeing CAMELS everywhere, but just because God is fun and He wants to confirm His Word to you in fun, creative ways, the testimony out of many of your mouths will be "Look, there again! CAMELS continue to appear EVERYWHERE" and when you see them, know He is smiling at you and the provision is upon you.

Our Prophetic Mandate Jo Ellen Stevens November 27, 2016 JEREMIAH 1:5-10 "Before I formed you in the womb I knew [and] approved of you [as My chosen instrument], and before you were born I separated and set you apart, consecrating you; [and] I appointed you as a prophet to the nations. Then said I, Ah, Lord God! Behold, I cannot speak, for I am only a youth.But the Lord said to me, Say not, I am only a youth; for you shall go to all to whom I shall send you, and whatever I command you, you shall speak. Be not afraid of them [their faces], for I am with you to deliver you, says the Lord.Then the Lord put forth His hand and touched my mouth. And the Lord said to me, Behold, I have put My words in your mouth. See, I have this day appointed you to the oversight of the nations and of the kingdoms to root out and pull down, to destroy and to overthrow, to build and to plant." ~I HEAR THE LORD SAYING~ "Be not afraid of their faces in this season because before I formed you in the womb I have ordained you to take the land! I have called you to have dominion in the earth! But before you can plant My Kingdom in the earth, you must be removed from your fear of men! Do not say to me that you are only a child or a woman, or one detested by others! Do not say, I am divorced, I am single, or I have a handicap. Do you not know that you are just who I am looking for in this hour! Yes, you are they who know that I am able to do anything through them and in them? Those who will go into the Land must first conquer their fear of man! They also must conquer their insecurities about who they are and see who they are in Me! I have ordained you to take the Land that I have given you! I have ordained you to go in first and root out that which was not built on my word and My principals! Root out that which I have not ordained but have become strongholds of the evil one! But you must know Me, so that you will know My thoughts because they are not your fleshly, worldly thoughts! I need a people to go into the Land with My mind and my heart! ~YOU MUST KNOW MY WAYS~ I must have a people who know My ways, so that they know what must be rooted up! I have also called you to pull down the strongholds in your minds first and then pull down the strongholds that those with wrong mindsets have set up in the land! These are they that call evil good and good evil! I called you to be full of compassion the kind that is brave and will be angry at sin everyday! Yes angry enough to root it out and say "NO MORE!" They will be angry enough to kick the devil out and love others enough, to be brave enough, to make themselves of no reputation and not care what man can do to them and only fear Me in this time and season! I need a prophet who will prophesy the truth with love that cries out for deliverance of the lost! I am calling you to speak truth to Power! I am calling you to tear down the mindsets that would murder the innocent! I am calling you to speak out and not be afraid! I am calling you to TAKE THE KINGDOM BY FORCE! Arise My people for I created you for such a time as this!

Victoria Boyson November 26, 2016 "Kings and armies flee in haste; the women at home divide the plunder" Psalm 68:12 NIV. After I'd been praying, prophesying and believing God for revival for years, the Father asked me one day, "What kind of revival do you want?" Knowing full-well His questions are usually leading questions, I asked Him, "Well, what kind of revival should I want, Father?" He answered back, "Do you want a revival of souls or of miracles?" I thought for a bit and answered, "I want a revival of souls...with a lot of miracles!" "How many souls do you want?" He continued. Digging deep for an answer, I remembered Evan Roberts from the historical Welsh revival asked God for 100,000 souls and he got them. So, I hesitantly answered, "Could I have 100,000 souls, Lord?" He was silent. I knew I had answered timidly, so I tried again. Reaching for more faith, I answered, "500,000 souls, Lord?" Again, I heard nothing. I knew I was not believing for enough from Him and tried again. "1,000,000 souls, Lord?" I asked sheepishly. Again, nothing. I tried again, "5,000,000?" Nothing. Wow! I really thought I was led by faith with that last guess, so I just threw caution to the wind and declared loudly, "One-billion souls, Lord!!!" "Now you are talking, daughter," He answered. Later, I questioned Him, "Lord, how could I win a billion souls?" That is when He showed me His simple equation for exponential revival. He said, "All you need to start with is 5,000 people, sold out and equipped to redeem the harvest." If those 5000 people each led only 3 people to the Lord, that would be 15,000, turning it over only 5 times, you would already be at 1 million people, and that is only the beginning. I saw it all as He laid out His plan in my spirit. With only 5,000 awakened believers, I could win one billion souls. So, when I think of you, dear friend, reading this message and walking in the liberty of the Father, I don't see you alone - I see 1 billion souls coming to Jesus through you! A Great Light One night as I slept, I was awakened by the Lord as His presence filled the room. Suddenly, I saw myself sitting in my little home, safe and snuggling, spending precious time with Jesus. As I continued to watch the vision unfold, I saw myself get up from my comfy chair and dart out into the dark chill of the night. Guided by one small torch, I felt compelled to venture into the night to try and light the way for the lost, whom I knew in my heart were trying desperately to find their way home. As I stood atop a lone dark hill, I raised up my torch as high as I could. In the hope the lost would see its light, I held it for them to find their way in the darkness. Off in the distance, a group of wolves laughed at my little light and mocked my faith, "They will never see your puny light, girl." I knew they were right in that my light wasn't much, but it was all I could do for them. So, I held it as high as I could for as long as I could stand it. Off in the distance, hidden by a thick covering of woods, I sensed the lost, too afraid to come to the light. Bolstered by the penetrating night, the wolves taunted them with their contempt as the heavy darkness blocked their way home. Anger rose inside me in response to the audacity of the haughty wolves. It was terribly dark, yet their apathy enraged me. Throwing my head back, closing my eyes and looking toward heaven, I cried out to God, "Make my light brighter, Lord!" When I opened my eyes, I saw the entire hillside was lit up with a great light. As I looked around, it was literally covered with a large crowd of women (and some men) all holding their torches high into the night's sky to guide the lost home. King David prophesied of a great host of women victorious in battle, "The Lord announces the word (Divine utterance), and the women who proclaim it are a mighty throng: 'Kings and armies flee in haste; the women at home divide the plunder!'" (Psalm 68:11-12 NIV emphasis mine). God Will Bring the Victory to YOU! The enemy has tried desperately to limit the effectiveness of women, but, just like Jael in Judges 4:17-24, if the enemy keeps you from going to war, God will bring the victory to you. So, let the enemy underestimate you. By underestimating you, he's just given you the keys to destroy him. He's placed you in just the right position to ruin him. Deborah was a prophet who governed the entire nation of Israel while Sisera lead King Jabin's army against Israel. One day she called for Barak to lead the armies of Israel in battle against the Canaanite king. She said to him, "This is what the Lord, the God of Israel, commands you: Call out 10,000 warriors from the tribes of Naphtali and Zebulun at Mount Tabor. And I will call out Sisera, commander of Jabin's army, along with his chariots and warriors, to the Kishon River. There I will give you victory over him." (Judges 4:6-7 NLT). Yet, despite Deborah's assurance of victory, Barak refused to go against Sisera unless Deborah agreed to go with him (Judges 4:8). Deborah agreed to go with the army, but prophesied that because of his lack of faith, he would receive no honor from the victory God would give them. Instead, she said, "The Lord's victory over Sisera will be at the hands of a woman" (Judges 4:9 NLT). That woman was Jael. She was at home in her tent, but God brought the battle to her. When Barak attacked, God caused Sisera and his men to run in panic. Looking for an escape, "Sisera ran to the tent of Jael, the wife of Heber the Kenite, because Heber's family was on friendly terms with King Jabin of Hazor. Jael went out to meet Sisera and said to him, 'Come into my tent, sir. Come in. Don't be afraid.' So he went into her tent, and she covered him with a blanket. 'Please give me some water,' he said. 'I'm thirsty.' So she gave him some milk from a leather bag and covered him again. 'Stand at the door of the tent,' he told her. 'If anybody comes and asks you if there is anyone here, say no.' But when Sisera fell asleep from exhaustion, Jael quietly crept up to him with a hammer and tent peg in her hand. Then she drove the tent peg through his temple and into the ground, and so he died. When Barak came looking for Sisera, Jael went out to meet him. She said, 'Come, and I will show you the man you are looking for.' So he followed her into the tent and found Sisera lying there dead, with the tent peg through his temple" (Judges 4:17-22 NLT). Jael was probably the last one that Barak considered would win the battle for Israel that day, but God chose her for that very reason. God was sending us a message: We cannot limit Him! He refuses to be put in a box! Tell Him He can't do something and that is just what He will do. Give Him a desert and He'll make a forest (Isaiah 41:19). Give Him a housewife and He'll make her a warrior. This is God's heart concerning you. He sees beyond our weaknesses and sees a victorious warrior. Who are You? When I first began to write, a good friend of mine offered to show my writings to an editor of a major publication. Of course I was delighted...until I heard back from her. The editor thought my writing was good, but implied I was a nobody, with no influence. "Who is she," the editor asked my good friend, "to tell me how to live..." It hit me like a brick and for another ten years I wrote nothing. I listened to their words and let them define me. Ten years later, God showed me a vision for my writing. I saw a simple notebook full of prophetic words the Lord gave me and from the center of the page four silvery white birds suddenly appeared and flew out from the pages. I watched as I saw the birds fly all over the world - from an African hut, to the elaborate rooms of a palace and pulpits all over the globe. The Father promised me, "If you obey Me, I will carry your words all over the world." I was simply in shock and fought hard to even believe what God showed me, but I obeyed Him and wrote. God fulfilled His promise to me and He has literally taken my simple words all over the world. It began simply, as I was home raising my children, but it didn't take long before I was covering the world with His messages of hope. God brought the battle to me! I was just a simple housewife, yet from this humble beginning the Lord has given me the possibility of reaching the world. He has sent His messages "throughout the earth, and (His) words to all the world" (Psalm 19:4 NLT, emphasis mine). Harvest of Potential God did not create you to live in survival mode. He created you with the intention that you would enjoy your life and thrive - living to your fullest potential in Him. That is what He designed you for and it is His delight. He gets great joy in seeing you walk in the fulness of your potential. He enjoys your enjoyment. He has placed deep wells of potential inside you, which He intends to draw. When the Father called you out of your shell to do the greater works (John 14:12) He planned for you to do, He anticipated everything you would need to accomplish His will. It's already inside you waiting to be harvested - to birth your dreams and manifest God's presence. Just like Adam and Eve were convinced of their failure (Genesis 3:10), we battle the same feelings of inadequacies. Invariably, the lies sown into our roots at the beginning of our lives try desperately to hinder our growth and potential. And just like Adam and Eve, God says to you: "Who told you that you were naked?" (Genesis 3:11 NLT). God sees the lies the enemy has sown in your heart much more clearly than you do, so He calls your attention to it so you can uproot it. The reality is, there is a war in the heavens over possession of your heart and mind. When you battle with the lies of the enemy, you will begin to see the realization of your potential. It is incredibly vital to heaven and so very necessary to the Earth - you are that important. As you take authority over the lies of the enemy that want to rob you of your confidence, know you are not just wrestling for your own sake, but for the triumph of the kingdom of heaven. As you stand in confidence to defeat destiny's thief, understand and recognize you stand in the confidence of the entire kingdom of heaven. So, tell that devil he has no chance against you and refuse to give him any place in your life. "Submit yourselves...to God. Resist the devil, and he WILL [literally] FLEE from you" (James 4:7 NIV emphasis mine). God has placed wells of potential inside of you, and as you draw from it, you bring a great reward to His kingdom. Draw near to Him and He will harvest your potential. Be confident that, "He who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus" (Philippians 1:6 NIV). Psalm 68:11 prophesied the coming of a great army of women who would experience incredible victories for the Kingdom of Christ. God is calling His warrior-women to the forefront of the battle. Women of Impact To rally God's army, I have launched a group called WOMEN OF IMPACT. It is a movement designed by God to enable women to impact the world around them. Our goal is to raise an army, strengthen them, encourage them and then watch them bring in the harvest! Join Derene Shultz and I in this powerful, life-changing ministry to raise up women! Just like the Samaritan woman at the well started the first revival and brought in a great harvest for the Lord (John 4:7-42), it is time for the women to join in declaring the Gospel of Jesus Christ to the nations. At the beginning of the year (2015), God gave me a little rhyme - Raise an Army, Prepare the Way, Light the Torch... it's time to Play! Truly, the Father has prepared you and now He's calling you. He needs you. The harvest is waiting - will you come?

Victoria Boyson November 25, 2016 When I think about how much God loves His daughters, I literally feel overwhelmed by heaven! As if Papa God was downloading a portion of His heart towards His girls into my heart, I suddenly realize that we, as women, do NOT yet understand what He really thinks of us - what He’s created us for and the passionate love He feels for us. Our world has been permeated with the lies of the enemy since the fall of mankind, but Jesus came to bring a REVOLUTION to the earth. Indeed, the Word says He came to bring a fire to the earth to destroy every lie the enemy’s created. Indeed, any way of thinking that does not line up with His truth IS worthless. It has no lasting value and will produce no fruit. As women, we need to find out the truth of what God thinks of us! Since 2004, I’ve been preaching the message of liberty for women and it has not been easy. And for as many years, I’ve prayed for God to raise up an army of women to fight for this world. Yet, in the last few years, I’ve seen God shift things in the spirit-realm and now I see a great company of women shooting lights of truth into the darkness – truly a great army is emerging! All over the world, God is raising up multitudes of women who’ve been united by the Holy Spirit’s plans to coincide with the deliverance of women to know who they are in Christ. Validating and encouraging women everywhere, we are seeing an arming arising from even unexpected places across the earth. This was NOT an accident! No! It was prophesied many years ago, in Joel 2:28, in Psalm 68:11 and many more. We are living what our ancestors only dreamt would eventually come to pass. Yet, there are still many many women in bondage all over the world. Their chains are not necessarily physical, but chains of oppressive lies the enemy has sown into the consciousness of women through the centuries. Through cultural bias, and twisted religious doctrines, women have been trained to think of themselves as less valuable or unusable to God. This is NOT TRUE! If you were the heavenly Father, whose love for His daughters knew NO BOUNDS, would you be upset if someone was trying to convince your little girls that you didn’t love them as much as you do your sons? I think I would be very upset and I would want the truth to be told. I would want all my children to know the truth of my love for them. Love for my heavenly Father has driven me, to fight for His truth to be told to His daughters, so they will know He is, indeed, a good, kind, loving Father. And they are as much heirs to His incredible kingdom as His sons. Truly, in the twelve plus years I’ve been teaching about God’s value of women, I’ve not had many men fight with me over the truths I present. No, men have even encouraged me to keep it up and spread the message to both men and women. Sadly, it’s been women who’ve had trouble receiving the truth about what God says about them. Yes, women have struggled to receive the truth even when shown plainly in scriptures. As though a veil hangs over their eyes, they still cling to the lies that tell them it is not godly to think of yourself as created in the Image of God. Wanting to hold on to even just a slight distinction that they believe God created between themselves and men, they struggle to accept the truth about who they were created to be. This is our great battle and, truly, it seems to be consuming at times. I want women to be free, because I know what it feels like to think this way. It took years of study and receiving revelation from the Holy Spirit through the Scriptures for me to really believe what I was receiving from the Word of God. When I really examined the fruit of what this divisive teaching has produce, only then did I see that this cannot be what God designed for humanity. I realize then why Jesus had to come and bring a fire to this earth – to burn up the remnants of the enemy’s lies against the daughters of Eve and liberate the kingdom of God to bring in the last day harvest! For truly, I saw the house of the Lord would not be WHOLE until women were raised up to serve in it as God intended. The Lord is moving across the earth, raising an army of men and women who will become His fire starters! Women of Impact Ministries is only ONE battalion in the great emerging army!
