    Hey Aussiegirl,
     
    I loved reading what you wrote.  I tell you, we really ARE having revival!  Like I said, this is on my thoughts all the time and consumes me more and more daily.  God is behind it all and He wants us to be this way.  I also feel He is telling us to pray in the Spirit more and more ....
    that is it REALLY needed right now not only for our own personal lives but also for the Body............we really need to KNOW what to do ......
    more than ever. 
    Last night, I went to bed with my Bible next to me, (my husband works at nights....and that needs to change) and I left it opened with paper and pen handy.  I felt something might take place during the night and I needed to be prepared.  I hug my Bible at night sometimes.  I sleep with it sometimes, too.  But last night, during Bible reading and prayer time that I was having, I FELT SOMETHING IS ABOUT TO BREAK!  I feel something is about to happen......BIG!  I have felt that this month and esp. the end of this month something is going to happen........something good whether in my life or across the board.  So many believers are weary.  There are many folks needing breakthru and I believe it is on the verge of exploding and happening.  I feel it so strongly.  I could hardly sleep last night because of this.  It has been this way for days.
    I LOVED that testimony about going door to door and how that lady had a dream and there you all were.  WOW!  I ABSOLUTELY LOVE testimonies like this.  Let us keep encouraging one another like this.  We all need it.
    I feel SOMETHING'S UP!  I also feel IT'S TIME!  The designated time is NOW!  The hour is NOW!  Wow!
    Can we get any sleep with this going on?  HA!  I think I can run thru the city and climb over walls..........want to join me???
     
    Love, Hugs, and Blessings,

    Aussiegirl, I know what you mean! I feel that God is preparing us for a work. He equips those He calls!!! Amen!
    I have always been one that loves to pray in the spirit. Praying in the spirit is like taking awesome journeys with the Lord. Something new and exciting, even if it is travailing. Now, I do still pray in the spirit, but the word is taking on a new emphasis.
    Suddenly I am becoming so keenly aware of the word of God, and it is like what Doc stated in one of his blogs on dominating with authority in 2008. I really believe that God is wanting us to become so engrafted to His word, that His word dominates our total being.
    I feel like God is taking US to a new level, and in order to operate in and on that level, we have to be full of His word.
    It has to be more then us just knowing scripture, and knowing what our rights are as believers, but it is like we become one with the word!
    I feel that I am literally "eating" the word. I want to sit there and take the time to digest every portion of it.
     
    I sat down a few weeks ago, and went through the first two chapters of Ephesians. I wrote long-handed into a note book the scriptures that pertain to who I am in Christ. I of course personalized it. Now, I find that I have so many more from Corinthians, and Romans, etc...
     
    For example:
    1 Cor.1:2 I am sanctified in Christ Jesus. I am consecrated, and purified and made holy in Christ Jesus.
    1 Cor.1:30 I have my life in Christ Jesus. He is my wisdom and my righteousness. He is my sanctification and my redemption.
    Romans 8:1-2 There is now no condemnation for me because I am in Christ Jesus. I walk not after the flesh, but after the spirit. For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death.
     
    2 Cor.1:21(amp) It is God who confirms and makes me stedfast and He establishes me in joint fellowship with me in Christ. He has consecrated me and has anointed me, enduing me with the gifts of the Holy Spirit.
     
    Wow!!! I am feeling the fire a rising!!!
     
    You are so right when you said the word is saturating, this is exactly what is happening. Praise God!!!
     
    I love it!!!!!!!!!!!!
     
     
    Thanks Aussiegirl for stirring me up even more!!!

    Hey Jody,
     
    I do NOT mind at all you joining.  The more the merrier.  We are having revival.  I am glad to hear more folks are experiencing this, too.  I can't sleep because of it.  HA!  I LOVE that story about Lazarua.  The part where Jesus says, "Did I not tell you that if you would JUST BELIEVE, you would see the Glory of the Lord."  God has been telling me for over half a year a VERY specific message....JUST BELIEVE!
    Then it changed to ONLY BELIEVE!  So that story means a lot to me.......as well as the disciples asking Jesus what are we to do to carry out what God requires?  His reply was JUST BELIEVE........in the One Whom He has sent.  I really do believe that He wants us to JUST BELIEVE and then He can FLOW to us and through us.  I remember the story about how Jesus sent out the disciples and told them to not take a single thing with them.  Nothing extra.  NOTHING!  And then later, the next time they went out, they could take whatever they needed to.  God was trying to show them WHO provides for them and for them to TRUST Him and JUST BELIEVE.......ONLY BELIEVE....God can and WILL take care of them (of us).  But when they went out the next time, they could carry their extras but still knowing WHO provides for them.  They had experiences where they HAD to trust the Lord and HE DID COME THRU FOR THEM!  As He promises.  They would never forget those times. 
    You know God has really been putting the story of the woman with the issue of blood on my heart, too.  We all know this story.  But have we considered WE could be the person someone would reach out to to touch and be healed or delievered, or set free or whatever the need.
    We are to imitate Christ.  We are to BE like Him.  It is not even us anyway.........it is HIM IN US..........The Kingdom of God IN US.....His power IN US that makes the difference in their lives.  The power of God in us and flowing out of us to others..........radically changing their lives.  
    People should be "attracted" to us because of WHO is in us! 
    One time, I had this dream and in it, I felt ALL this power in me.  I mean, I REALLY FELT IT and I knew that I needed to "get it out" to others.  So in this dream, I went around touching people and they immed. fell out and some REALLY fell out.  I would ask some folks, do you want this.....do you want me to touch you........do you want to feel the Power of God.....(something like this) and everybody in my dream got touched but one did not want me to touch him.  But everybody else wanted to experience Him.  I was about to explode.  I really felt if I did not touch folks, I would literally explode.  It was so awesome.  I also fly a lot in my dreams.  I LOVE THOSE!  But we are to be making a difference every where we go like Jesus did.  The opportunities are there.  God will use us if we say yes!
     
    I am so glad you joined our discussion.  Please always feel free to do so.  I agree.  It IS GRRRRRRREAAAAAAAATTTTTTT! (we sound like Tony the Tiger, don't we?  HAHAHA)! 
     
    Love, Hugs, and Blessings!

    Aussiegirl and Jan,
                                      After posting to Aussiegirl, I had to get off my computer and pray in the spirit. The words the Lord dropped in my heart, is He is doing a positioning with us through his word. I questioned him, and he then ministered to me, the more of the word of God that we pertake of,  the more that word is engrafted into us. Eph. 5:30 "For we are members of His body, of His flesh and of His bones." He then stated, that when the word becomes this engrafted in us that we take upon us His nature!
    It is in His nature to heal the sick, to cast out demons, to even raise the dead. It will then become our nature to do this, because we will be positioned to dominate in the authority of HIM! We won't question is this God or is it me. We will have his nature to do the works that He did! He came to undo, to destroy the works of the devil! PRAISE GOD!!!
    It will be as Jan stated previously, when we walk in a place, the KINGDOM OF GOD WALKS IN THERE WITH US!!!
    All of heaven will be backing us!
     
    I praise God for the two of you, and I prayed for the Lord to bring that to maturity that He is working in you, because it will bring Him such glory!
     
     
    AMEN!!!

    WOW!  We three need to get together!  MAN!  Can we handle anymore!?  MORE LORD!  MORE!  Lord, let your Glory fall on us and saturate us that we will be unrecognizable as to who we WERE!  Let us BASK and MARINATE in YOUR GLORY LORD.  IN YOUR PRESENCE!  I don't have any doubts that we will be used to raise the dead, cast out demons, healings of all kinds, miracles, creative miracles, etc.  I WANT GOD TO USE ME FOR ALL OF IT!  And I can tell you both do, too.  When the Kingdom of God is in us, we CAN DO ANYTHING...............ALL THINGS ARE TRULY POSSIBLE!  We MUST believe.  Signs and wonder follow those who believe.  I believe and I also believe that signs and wonders can follow me.  And I know you do, too.  I pray our computers can handle all of this power and anointing!  HA!
    I pray for you Jody and Aussiegirl........that EVERY SINGLE need you have is NOW met.  BREAKTHROUGH for you both in the areas that you need BREAKTHROUGH in.  Let the Glory of the Lord invade every single area of your life.  May there not be a single dark area in your life.  BOTH OF YOU!  May you both be illuminated with His Glory!  RIGHT NOW!  INVADE OUR HOMES, OUR FAMILIES, OUR LIVES!  NOW!  In Jesus Name.  Glory invasion.  The FULLNESS of THE BLESSING invasion and explosion....blasting away ALL limitations...ONCE AND FOR ALL!    NOW!  IT IS TIME!
    GOD BLESS YOU BOTH!
    LOVE YOU TWO!

    Aussiegirl,

    DID YOU SAY SWIM???????  Does that mean you are near a beach or a pool?  Hmmmmmmm????  HA!  I LOVE the beach.  I LOVE anything and everything to do with tropical stuff.  I even LOVE coconut.  Yes, I love Mounds!  HA!  I love shells, palm trees, dolphins, bright and alive colors like you would see with tropical stuff.  I love jewelry that is tropical.  My most favorite colors are aqua and turquoise and fuschia (or in that family....even bright pink).  Tropical colors of all kinds.  I love tropical fish.  You ought to see my house.  Looks like you stepped into Florida or some island with all the "stuff" around that looks like that.  You name it, it is there (except beach sand)....I just have good ole' USA dirt instead of beach sand.  Anyway, I just thought I would share that with you.  I sure could go for the BEACH right now.  I have not seen one in person in years.  I NEED my beach!  Pant! Pant!  HAHA!  Yes, I am a little nuts but I do eat coconut whenever I can.  Blame it on them.  HA!  To be serious (yeah, right)...no really...........being around the beach and all the scenery like that.......really does something to me spiritually.  I really can "get with God" and commune with those kind of surroundings.  Not saying that I can't here but you know what I mean.  He made the ocean and the beach and all the tropical stuff around the beach and such........I am just TAKING IN HIS CREATION along with TAKING IN HIM!  Mmmmmmmm!  I better go get some rest.  I need some.  HA!  I will count palm trees to go to sleep!  Right now, the temperature here where I am is 19........ick!  I am NOT a winter person at all!  Oh well.  God created that, too!  HA!

    Thank you Aussiegirl and Jody.........for all your emails today.  LOVE THEM!  I will read them over and over again!  THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR PRAYERS!  Pray for us a breakthru in our transportation situation and a financial breakthru.  Also, we really need to know what the Lord wants us to do now.....or next.  Please pray we can hear clearly.  DIVINE CONNECTIONS and ENCOUNTERS!  Thank you so much!

    May you both live under OPEN HEAVENS!  Pour Lord!

    Love and Hugs!

    Hey Ladies,

    I got up this morning and reread this thread, and felt the Holy Spirit rising up within me.  What powerful posts these are.  I love how God created this ability with words.

    If you get up and begin to wallow in the words that the devil puts in your head or in all the problems you are facing, then that's what builds inside of you and you carry that attitude with you all day.  If, however, you get up and immediately read the Word, and read something that empowers you like TAKING GOD WITH YOU EVERYWHERE, ALL DAY EVERY DAY, then that is what takes root and grows within you. 

    I remember one night, I went to bed with something heavy on my mind - our rent needed to be paid and we didn't have the money and had no idea how to get it.  Our landlord was a hard man.  Anyway, I went to sleep with that on my mind.  When I woke up the next morning, it was like that worry demon was sitting on my pillow - right next to my head, waiting for consciousness to take place so that it could start again right away.  God gave me a picture of that - he was just sitting there, waiting for consciousness, so he could continue that attack.

    Well Praise God when I saw that picture, I sent that little worry demon running in the NAME. 

    Anyway, if you ladies think ya'll are going to leave me here in the states while you travel to Australia you are sadly mistaken.  I'm coming too Aussiegirl.  Count on it.

    Looking forward to scuba diving in your beautiful ocean.  Hey, I know.  Kenneth Copeland usually has Believer's Conventions in Australia every year.  That's where we'll meet.

    Ha!!!

    Amazing Aussiegirl,

    I'm eating my eggs here Thursday morning at 9:24 and you're on your way to bed there, Thursday night, 11:20.  Sweet dreams Woman of God.  We'll meet again when you awake and when I'm on my way to bed.  And yes, I'm praying for divine connections.  Great idea!!!

    Hey Dee, come on board.  Glad to have you and your input and encouragement and excitement.  And we would NEVER leave you back here in the states when we head out for Australia.  Hey, let's take a cruise.  By the time we get to Australia, that ship and the people on it will NEVER be the same....
    with us on board, GOD IS ON BOARD.........with us on board, THE KINGDOM OF GOD IS ON BOARD...........and with HIS mighty power in us, we will be BLASTING everything demonic off that ship.  The ship itself would be a changed ship.  HA!  Daniel 11:32 say......."but the people who know their God shall prove themselves strong and shall stand firm and do exploits [for God]."  That's us!  Also, Zep. 3:9 says, "For then [changing their impure language] I will give to the people a clear and pure speech from pure lips, that they may all call upon the name of the Lord, to serve Him with one unanimous consent and one united shoulder [bearing the yoke of the Lord].
     
    It is time for us to Arise [from the depression and prostration in which circumstances have kept us---rise to a new life]!  Shine (be radiant with the glory of the Lord), for our light has come, and the glory of the Lord has risen upon us!  Is. 60:1
     
    I pray ladies that your day today will be your BEST YET THIS YEAR!  I pray blessings CHASE YOU DOWN!  You can't hide from them you know.  GOD KNOWS WHERE YOU ARE!  HA!
    Love you all!  Behave yourselves!
