February 2011 Prophetic Word
Greetings in the matchless name of our Lord Jesus Christ. Yes it has been a few weeks since updating the prophetic word but as I always say, I don't just want to put up anything. I have really been pondering on what the Lord desires to say to us on this month and now I believe I am ready to speak his voice.
One morning this past week I woke up and began to lay in the bed and meditate on God, as I was laying there I became semi-conscious and went into a semi-trance. I began to see what looked like a blue river that was overflowing and in the midst of it was blue diamonds flowing within it's streams. As, I began to ponder on this and ask God about the meaning, I didn't come up with what he was saying immediately but as I sought him he gave me the meaning.
The blue represents Heaven because we see in Exodus this was the leading color of the Tabernacle . It represents Heavenly character. The river represents overflow of divine love and grace. Ezekiel 47. It also represents the fruitfulness of heaven and abundance. Psalm 1:3 & Jeremiah 17:8. The diamond's that were blue represent a place of rest in God's Eden. If you look at Ezekiel 28:13, the diamond was recognized as a jewel in the Garden of Eden- a place of covering, favor and holiness. The diamond is also recognized for it's durablity and hardness. The diamond was also the 6th stone in Aaron's Breastplate which God commanded in order to represent God's holiness and beauty. You can see this in Exodus 28:18.
So what can we gather from all of this? Basically, what God was showing me is that Heaven is going to invade earth this year in unprecedented ways. This year we are going to see God allow the very presence of Heaven to come into the lives of people through the abundance of his divine love and grace. Out of this we are going to see many souls saved on this year.
For the believer in Christ, this is going to be a year where you will experience God's presence at a greater dimension in your personal life. You will have personal encounters with God's glory and holiness this year. He will place you in his "Garden of Eden" and you will experience favor like you have never experienced it before. You will see fruitfulness in many areas of your life where there has been barreness. This will be a banner year for you as you trust in God.
There is one commandment that God is requiring in order to experience these things this year and that is a greater commitment to him in prayer and fellowship. As you make a sacrifice to commune with God through prayer and fellowship, all of these promises above will unfold in your life. It is imperative that you pray at a level you have never given him before in order to birth the blessings in your life that he has spoken. Fifteen minutes of prayer won't get it! Rush prayers won't make it!!
Make it your goal this year to give God 10 percent of your day everyday and you will experience him at a level you have never experienced him before. That is 2 hours and 40 minutes a day. You may say I don't have the time in the day. Well it is imperative that you make the time. If you have only been giving him 30 minutes of prayer it's time to double that and make it an hour. We cannot expect to see the miracles of God on prayers less than an hour. It simply won't work in this season. I didn't say Bible reading time, I said straight prayer time and communion with the father. Your reading the Bible is a separate time.
This is the year God is calling for you to go the extra mile in your prayer life and in your relationship with him. He want's a deeper commitment from you. The greater the blessings, the greater the prayer life and fellowship with God that is required. God has so many blessings to bestow upon you this year, so join in with him through a greater commitment of prayer and fellowship and watch this be the best year of your life. If you can be disciplined and stay focused you will see words that were prophecied over your life years ago come to pass on this year.
As my Bishop always tells me..."stay the course." You have got to stay the course and while you are on the course, continue to climb the latter of success through prayer and fellowship with the King of the universe, our Maker, our Father and our God.
Blessings,
Pastor Watkins :-)
