10,000 WARRIORS

Indifference -who cares?

2012-01-31T20:05:00.000-08:00

I am sitting here in the cafe and decide to look over my own website. Something stirs in me and I remember who called me and the depth of His passion for people. As wonderful as Christmas is, staying in that chill zone breeds a certain apathy born of a lack of vision. I am glad it is February and I feel vision and life stirring in me calling up the warrior to stand at attention and seize the day. Christ is the visible image of the invisible God, He worked day and night tirelessly showing his disciples the urgency of the kingdom. If you have not yet engaged in 2012, and asked for the Kings orders for your life this year. Do it now, go, pray and catch on fire for the purposes of the King. Thank you Holy Spirit for moving in me afresh!

Corpse on Board

2011-12-30T16:53:00.000-08:00

Corpse on Board - A dream I had on 19th Dec and now I submit it to you.
We were in a house. A core of us, were there dressed to go to a Christmas Day Event for anyone who wanted to celebrate Christmas or needed company. In my mind it was time to go and I was potting around doing some ‘last minute’ stuff before Peter, (my husband) and I left.
Others were there in the house (not the one I live in), and someone tried to talk me into staying, saying; “Everyone is accounted for, no one else will be coming, see, we are all here”. I suggested someone who might come and they showed me that they were already there in the house. So, subtly, without being straight up obstinate, they kept suggesting that we “should take care of ourselves, it wouldn’t be any point to going, we already had a party right there … stay”.
I shook it off, determined to go and be there for who-so-ever would come and I went to get something out of the fridge, which was empty. While doing so, curiously, I noticed the retainer wall was disintegrating and that the house was actually becoming in need of repair. These people were also planning and ready to go but merely thinking it might be ‘nicer to stay.’

I told them, “No I have to go, there could be others” as Peter and I left to go. Somewhere during these interactions we got word that someone we all knew had died, a mutual friend. We shared the grief momentarily, saying, “Oh, what a shame”, then Peter and Iheaded out to our cars. They were parked on the other side of a body of water and to get to them we had to cross over and through it.
I felt like I knew it was the sea, but it looked like a slow flowing river, all muddy and brown.
It did not seem strange in the dream to be having to go through the water so we waded in and headed toward where we knew our cars were. At about knee deep, I noticed some ‘caravan’ looking things along the bank. People were trying to pull them into the water and I thought to myself, “they will never be able to pull them in, they are too, planted or heavy or the people too weak”. We kept moving and when the water was past our waist, we came around the bend to notice another 12 or 15 chalets on the opposite bank. Even as I looked at them, people heave hoed (pulled) them all simultaneously into the water, and after some initial turbulence they became still quite quickly, remaining in a row. I was amazed that they could be pulled in by just people and ropes. When they hit the water a great whoosh went through the water from beneath the surface and I thought, “That will surely stir up the sharks and the nasties from below the surface”, and asked Peter to carry me so I could lift my legs up to safety at the surface. Strangely, I was not afraid, but I felt this is what we needed to do to remain safe. He did and carried me in the water across to the other bank.
We emerged from the water on the other side, dry, and we each went to our vehicle. We were going together, to the same destination and for the same purpose and with the same passion but in different vehicles. When I looked in my car I saw 2 people, one alive and one dead. The alive one was in the passenger’s seat and was very passive. The person did not acknowledge me or attempt to interact. I thought the dead person in the back must belong to them, although it was in my car. The dead one was more of a mummy than a corpse, dead for some time and in a vacuum sealed, see through, bag of about 1m square.
The corpse was tucked in behind the seats in the leg space. Looking at them both, I thought it was kind of weird and gruesome but shrugged my shoulders and got in.
Someone from outside the car then called to the passenger, “here, I found this in the rubbish you can give it to her” ( throwing an old bread roll into the car and indicating to the corpse) I thought, “Yuk” and wondered how it could possible eat it”?
I screwed up my face and looked back at it, disgusted and not understanding how such a thing could be fed. I also noticed red lipstick on it. I shrugged again put my seatbelt on and began driving on a long straight road.
On my way, I suddenly I noticed an infant on my lap. It was vibrant and full of life and while I knew the baby belonged to me, I also knew that it could not stay on my lap. I noticed the baby was both strong and happy and I knew I had to pull over and secure it to keep it safe for the journey. As I pulled over to the left and stopped I noticed there were 3 police on the side of the road right there where I stopped. They were actually sitting right below a very bright flood light and were highly visible and yet I didn’t notice them until I was almost parked. While at first I thought I would get in trouble for having the baby on my lap, they seemed disinterested and kept doing what they had been doing. (2 of them were behind playing cards and another one watching the road)
The one in front looked at me for a second and then turned away without expression. Immediately on stopping, Peter who had also stopped spontaneously with me, was at the window of my car reaching for the baby.
When the infant saw him, it got very excited and reached and wriggled to him. It literally felt like holding a bundle of ‘abundant life’, wonderful and free. He took the child through the window and secured it in the back seat in a car seat, not to restrain it but to protect it. I thought it was yuck to put the baby so near the mummy / corpse and made sure they were not touching. I double checked to ensure that the infants foot could not make contact with the bag holding the corpse. Then I buckled up and continued on my journey.

This dream has come at the dusk of 2011 and the birth of 2012.
It is laden with imagery and wisdom to the thoughtful reader and I encourage you to enjoy its depths.
The journey to Christmas speaks of the dreams’ imminence. The centrality of our partnership as men and women was significant. It announces that the future is already alive in us and needs our attention to nurture it now.
2012 is full of promise.

SOME THOUGHTS
The original house is the place of comfort, but it has no food, and is in fact becoming dilapidated.
The people in it were those already saved, on board and doing OK
The voice of reason, ‘stay’, was the temptation to settle
The challenge is to keep moving.
Chalet/vans – were meant to be mobile, could indicate churches, whole movements, ministries, households…
The water is the status quo, it had no movement, harboured nasties, (a stagnant inlet from ocean).
When my husband carried me, it tells of; oneness, the one new man, healing between genders, unity and strength.
The people with ropes are our traditions, culture and expectations, lack of time or even debt. Beware the, ‘everyone else is mooring here’, reason.
The passenger was disconnected, in the car but with their baggage. Feeding off yesterdays bread. It speaks of passivity, flesh?
The corpse that was sealed, once was alive, even beautiful, but time is over must be let go of.
I felt for some the corpse was never meant to die, it is a destiny that was sabotaged or died through offence. However, the Holy Spirit in grace has sealed it up and offers new life, second chance. Beware feeding yesterdays vision.
The Baby is the point – future, destiny, promises, Vision, New Wine in new skin, the Church and her mission as forerunner (new things in evangelism, arts etc
The Road – life, the way
Police – the law. We were outside their jurisdiction. It is passive, has no power to control or protect those on this journey. Spirit led people on their destiny have no need of the law.
Floodlight – the law is good for those who don’t know where they are going????
My husband & I ‘knew’ simultaneously to stop and partnered in attending to infant suggesting a Holy Spirit unity that both protects and secures the future.
The baby needs advocates and protectors

ASK – where am I?
At the house, questioning or seeing no need to move, change?
Are You thinking that it is enough that you are, ‘OK’?
There are some who are in one of the chalet/vans, stuck in dead water,
or even in the water pulling the ropes?
Are you in the passengers seat – not fully connected to what God is up to, or allowing your ‘old man’ to take up serious space on the journey?
Are you outside the vehicle, ‘looking’ for bread in the bin?
Are you feeding the corpse, even hindering others journey through stale or putrid bread of religion. Yesterday’s revelation, which includes some methods and/or ideas, is no longer useful.

Our task is to identify the corpse, what has been sealed by the Holy Spirit (and pronounced dead) but that we continue to carry around with us and, (even if we don’t feed it ourselves) we allow it to be fed.
If you do not know me, Julie Blasé, 10000warriors.com , then by all means discard this.
Feel free to judge it – but handle with care.
I believe the dream has implications for the Body of Christ and His grace will continue to be sufficient if we will continue to trust in Him.
Take this message and ask God to help you discern on behalf of all that He has put under your influence

Num 12:6
And the Lord said to them, "Now listen to what I say:
"If there were prophets among you,
I, the Lord, would reveal myself in visions.
I would speak to them in dreams.

Gloria In Excelsis Deo

I am putting it out there that I am refusing to be called a child of pharoah. (see Hebrews 11) Whenever we speak of rejecting the status quo and not becoming like the world, we often consider things like - no drinking, smoking, or hanging out with bank robbers. But here is a thought, how about, choosing kindness when your sense of justice wants vindication or saying 'sorry' when its their fault.

In the words of an old australian bush song the villian says to the troopers, "I'll die but I won't surrender" So many of us are like that. We would rather die, (physically and spiritually) than to surrender to those God has called us to love. Jesus showed us how to surrender to the will of God, how to lay our lives down for His purposes. I am not advocating being a door mat but do you really need to be saving your life so often and making sure that you are one up on everybody.

Use these final weeks of the year to practise losing your life. Never compromise on what He has called you to do... That is a good fight and you must press on to take a hold of that for which Christ took hold of you... However we lose our peace of mind over far less important things, so go on ... let it go!

PS. NEW YEARS EVE - "CHECK THE BACK SEAT"

Rick Joyner - Good News

PROPHETIC BULLETIN - The Great Tsunami - By Rick Joyner

In 1987 I had a two-and-a-half-day prophetic experience in which I was shown a panorama of coming events that I wrote about in my book titled, The Harvest. Most of what I saw coming has now taken place, but the biggest event of all, the harvest that was at the end of the age, has not. It is now approaching.

Jesus said, “The harvest is the end of the age” (see Matthew 13:39). This will be the greatest ingathering of new believers in history, greater than all the previous ones combined. In my vision, this came in two great waves. The first wave was the largest up until this time, but it was only the ingathering of those who were called to be the laborers in the coming even much greater one.

This first wave began shortly after I was given this vision and lasted for almost twenty years. During that time more people came to Christ around the world than had come to Him in all of history up until that time. Some estimates were that an average of almost four hundred thousand people a day were coming to Christ during its peak. There were countries where people were being born again faster than they were being born. Hundreds of millions came to Christ in Africa, South and Central America, and Asia.

Though this wave hardly seemed to touch North America and Europe, they provided many of the evangelists and workers for the other great revivals around the world, and their time is coming. I then saw a period of relative calm before the greatest of all moves of God began. We are near the end of that time and are about to be hit by a wave of revival like the earth has never seen before.

The Magnitude of the Harvest

When a tsunami is traveling across the oceans, it is barely a discernable ripple in the water, but when it approaches land, it begins to rise fast, sometimes to a height of several hundred feet. In minutes, a calm sea can rise up and sweep away everything in its path. Even though it may seem that we are in a spiritual calm now, a spiritual tsunami is coming, and we must prepare for it.

The biggest problem virtually every church will be facing is how to handle explosive growth. In the vision, I saw small churches of less than a hundred people adding a thousand new members a week at times. Of course, this happened on the Day of Pentecost, and then there were other days in which thousands came to Christ in a day. Even with a dozen apostles personally trained by the Lord, there was stress caused by this. Pressure points gave birth to new ministries such as the deacon. The infrastructure of church life that this produced is still the model that works, and we need to return to its effective simplicity to handle what is coming.

I saw churches that grew so large that they started renting football and soccer stadiums in which to hold their services. At times, hundreds of thousands would gather in parks and huge outdoor meetings just to hear Bible teachers to pray and to worship. Not only were whole cities coming to Christ, but also entire nations were coming so that the state itself became like a large church.

A few years ago I decided to watch the news for several hours a day for a week to determine what percentage of stories could be considered good news. During that time I did not see one good news story. They were all about problems, crises, disasters, and suffering. This was during the time of some of our greatest economic prosperity. Now it’s worse. However, change is coming. When this next wave hits, the news around the world is going to be dominated by good news.

We will see events like hundreds of thousands of people gathering spontaneously for prayer and worship, becoming the biggest news stories of the day. News teams will be following apostolic teams and evangelists like they do politicians and business leaders now. Much more is happening now than most are aware of, or that is making the news, but when the Lord “suddenly comes into His temple,” it will be the news, and the whole world will be aware of it.

There will be individual newscasts from secular networks that will cause more to come to Christ than Christian networks have in their entire existence. This is not to negate what has been accomplished by Christian networks but rather to stress the impact that this revival will have. We will go through a period when the news of the great things God is doing will crowd out just about all other news around the world.

Both the Welsh and the Azusa Street Revivals made front-page news around the world repeatedly for nearly two years. That was just a foretaste, a seed being planted for what is to come. The coming move of God will in some ways be a composite of many of the great moves of the past, but in one basic way it will be different—this will not just be a move of God, but it will be God moving.

This is not just semantics, because every true move of God is at least initiated by God, but He will bless many things He will not inhabit. His manifest presence will be so great in what is coming that people will not chase after individual truths, or acts of God, but they will be after the Lord Himself. He will be the conversation, not just what He does. This is a move that will lift up Jesus. When He is lifted up, all will be drawn to Him, not just to doctrines, projects, or missions, but to Him.

Doctrine certainly has its place, and there is a great need for sound biblical doctrine to be imparted to all new believers, and for all other believers to build stronger foundations on His truth. There is a need for projects and missions that are His will, but “the main thing is to keep the main thing the main thing,” and the Main Thing is Jesus. The true apostolic Gospel was Jesus: “They preached Jesus and the resurrection from the dead.” Jesus will again be the Message, and it will be what He is doing that gets the attention.

What is coming is the return to the apostolic gospel. The Way is a Person. Truth is a Person, and if we don’t know that Person as our Life, then we don’t really know the Way or the Truth either. He is coming to take His rightful place in His church. When He does, the church will be profoundly changed. When Jesus becomes our desire as He should be, the church will become the ultimate society on the earth that multitudes will be streaming to. There is no greater adventure than the true Christian life, and there is nothing more boring than religion. Religion is about to be displaced by the true Christian life, and the great adventure will supplant institutional religion.

Catch the Wave

We are coming to the most exciting times in history, but this is also a warning. If we are not prepared for what is coming, we will be victims of it. This coming worldwide revival will also be one of the biggest challenges ever. Moves of God are often referred to as waves in history because a wave is an accurate metaphor. For a surfer, there are few things as thrilling as catching “the big one.” However, if you’re casually strolling in the surf and the big one catches you by surprise, you will likely eat a lot of sand and drink a lot of salt water. Revivals can do the same thing to churches and ministries that are not prepared for them.

Riding a wave is not possible unless you are positioned right to catch it. To catch a wave, you must discern where it is going to break. Then you must position yourself in the right place. Then you have to begin moving in the right direction when it comes. Though it may seem that everything is quiet right now, we need to be getting prepared for what is coming by getting into position and be ready to move in the right direction as it comes.

The most important thing that we can do to get into the right position is to recover and strengthen our first love—Jesus. We all signed up for Him, not just good teachings, or a better way to live, though we do get those too. There is nothing on earth more contagious than a person who is getting closer to the Lord. Those “who have been with Jesus” are going to start standing out as never before. We only have true spiritual authority to the degree that we are abiding in the King, and the leaders of what is coming will be those who are the closest to the Lord.

What is coming will be far too big for any human leadership or strategy to control. Only the Captain of the hosts can lead this one, and He will. It is not just hearing the words of the Lord as much as it is hearing the Word Himself. The main strategy for what is to come will be to know His voice and to obey Him. He will be giving personal direction to His people. This is why we are told in Acts 2:17-18 that “in the last days” when He pours out His Spirit, the result is dreams, visions, and prophecy upon the old and young, male and female, which obviously includes everyone. This is because we are going to need this kind of guidance for what is to come, and He is going to give it to us as He always has for those who would seek Him.

The coming move of God will be the greatest challenge we’ve ever faced but also will be the greatest time of our lives. These are the times that even the prophets of old desired to see. The Lord has saved His best wine for last, and many who are reading this will witness the greatest move of God of all time.

It is right to appreciate the honor of living in these times, but it is also right to treat it as the great responsibility that it is. To whom much is given much will be required, and this will be a time when much work must be done. Even so, when we are yoked with the Lord, we will find rest and refreshment in our labors as we are told in Matthew 11:28-30:

“Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, and I will give you rest.

“Take My yoke upon you, and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart,
and you shall find rest for your souls.

“For My yoke is easy, and My burden is light.”

You do not put on a yoke to go to bed but rather to do work. However, there is no greater rest and refreshment for our souls that we could ever find than being yoked with the Lord in His work. There is no job or profession we could ever have in this life more fulfilling than doing what He created us to do before the foundation of the world. This will be life on a level more exciting and fulfilling than most have ever known. Even so, knowing and abiding in the rest of the Lord will be crucial for all during this time. As much work as there will be to do with so many coming to the faith, we must not fall to human striving. Striving is counterproductive in the work in the true work of the kingdom.

He Is Supernatural

We were created to have fellowship with God Who is Spirit. Because of this, there is a deep yearning for the spiritual, the supernatural, in every human being. Many cover it up, but we can never be truly fulfilled or at peace without this spiritual fellowship with God. As Jesus stated in John 4:23-25:

“But an hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth;
for such people the Father seeks to be His worshipers.

“God is spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.”

The Apostle Paul said that if we are at home in the body, or in the natural, we are absent from the Lord (see II Corinthians 5:6-9). We should be more at home in the spiritual realm than we are the natural because the “new creation” is born of the Spirit. This too is going to become a reality in what is coming. Then extraordinary miracles become common, and even the “greater works,” such as speaking to mountains and having them plucked up and moved, will be done to prove that the Word of God is true.

The true Christian life is a supernatural life, and this will be a reality in what is coming. However, that we will be seeing such miracles also means that we will be living in times when we will need those miracles. Everyone will be in either continuous awe and wonder at the great things the Lord is doing, or in continuous terror at what is happening in the world. The Apostle Paul said in Acts 14:22, “Through many tribulations we must enter the kingdom of God.” This is true personally and for the whole world. In every trial there is a door to the kingdom, and in the ultimate trial of the whole earth, the whole earth will enter the kingdom.

The good thing is that the tribulation will not last, but the kingdom will. For those who are staying close to the Lord, they will hardly know that they are passing through tribulations. In a prophetic experience, I was once caught up and found myself standing in front of a radar screen on a warship, with the Lord Himself standing next to me. There was a blip on the screen coming straight at us, so I called for the ship to turn 90 degrees. The ship turned, but the blip on the screen remained right in front and coming closer. I called for the ship to turn again, with the same results. I then braced for the impact, but the blip went away and nothing happened. I then asked the Lord what had happened. He said the blip on the radar screen was the great time of trouble. He said that it was coming and there was no way to avoid it, but if we stayed close to Him, we wouldn’t even feel it.

For those who are walking in their purpose, even the great tribulation will be a minor event. There will be far more attention on what Christ is doing than on what the antichrist is doing. As we read in Isaiah 60, at the very time when darkness is covering the earth, and deep darkness the people, the Lord’s glory will be rising on His people. Then, as we see in verse three, the nations will come to the glory. The light wins! We do need to know the devil’s schemes, but true security comes from knowing what Christ is doing, and uniting with Him in His purposes.

As we read in Daniel 2, at the same time all of the kingdoms of men are collapsing and becoming like dust, the kingdom of God is growing, and it will keep growing until it fills the earth. Those who are obeying His command to seek first His kingdom (see Matthew 6:33) will experience never-ending increase. Those who are seeking first the things of this world will experience increasing troubles. Every coming year this distinction will become more pronounced. It is time to put the kingdom first, above anything else that we are pursuing.

One of the most important things that we can do to be positioned to catch the wave that is coming is to come to know the gifts and ministries of the Spirit that we are called to walk in, and begin to walk in them. The Ephesians 4 mandate of all true New Testament ministry is to equip others to do the work of the ministry, not just do it ourselves. Those who do not obey this mandate will soon disappear from leadership in the church, and those who train and equip their people will be the future leaders of the body of Christ. These are the ones who are not burying the talents they’ve been entrusted with but are investing and multiplying them. We cannot accomplish what we must in these times without every part of the body doing its part.

Summary

For the last five years I have been shown many difficulties and hardships that will be coming, and to date, they have proven to be accurate. Not many wanted to hear or believe what we had to say, and I have to admit that it has not been much fun having so many hard words. Even so, all of these trials have doors to the kingdom that we must now walk through. Those who did hear the warning and prepared accordingly have done very well. The prepared will prosper in any situation. One of the most important preparations we can make for these times is simplicity of life.

Gaining or losing natural resources is not nearly as important in these times as being in the right place, equipped for our purpose. To lose everything we own is not nearly as important compared to missing the greatest of all spiritual opportunities that is coming. The most valuable thing we can accomplish in this life is to hear those greatest of words on the Judgment Day: “Well done good and faithful servant” (see Matthew 25:23). There is not a human being who would not gladly trade all that they accomplished to hear those words on that day. This is also what we must live for now. Those who do will be the happiest of all people, and that joy will not go away forever.

Pray & Obey

2011-10-03T19:32:00.000-07:00

I recently heard Oral Roberts in an interview and it blessed me. He talked about the sadness of losing his wife of over 60 years and the longing to finish his race well. And then he gave a powerful nugget of wisdom that has been his philosophy or manifeso for life.

Pray and Obey. Ask not what the Kingdom can do for you but what can you do to advance the Kingdom, to promote its attributes of Joy and Peace, Kindness and Grace. I'll tell you, anything and everything you hear from Him, when you pray. Put down your lofty plans and go into the secret place and come out and do the thing He says. You may want to save the world, but He is asking you to forgive your sister. Never mind being the next great worship leader, love your wife, and live.

I saw a vision on Sunday. When we were praying into the idea of 10W and planning our assault on the powers and principalities, I saw Jesus turning up to our events, excited and joyful. For Him it was like sports day and his kids were running. I laughed at the thought because He has already won and He looks forward to our running and claiming our prize. Our inheritance in Him is sure ... therefore prophesy!

Be very very blessed, come out and pray, and celebrate. Pray and Obey, its hard to beat!

No glamour included.

2011-09-15T22:25:00.000-07:00

Today I started my prayer ride. It goes like this, I ride my horse around the city and pray for each house and street and any other random thing that inspires me that pushes back the darkness even just a little. Sounds beautiful eh? beautiful day, birds singing, lovely horse cantering along with the breeze in my hair, right? WRONG!
More like this; firstly its hot and a mozzie flies into my eye and bites me on the eyeball, yes on the white part and my eye starts aching and gets all weepy. The sunscreen is all slimy in the heat and it the first time I have taken Triniy out on her own and she keeps coming up with ways to spin around and head back home. That's fun, the first 2 times. After a very wet season, her feet are very soft and I look down and one of her shoes is skew-if and she is tip-toeing every time she even sees a rock or a bindi. My eye is kind of throbbing now but I am singing, How great is our God ... sing with me ... I keeping a good attitude cause the truth is I love being outside, alone and doing something meaningful.
I have not ridden for more than an hour since March and after the second hour I am thinking I should have put my lambswool cover on my saddle. I stop on a shady corner to read through the 10 minute prayer and while I am off, I feel sorry for Trinity and squeeze the water from my bottle into her mouth. Hendra in mind I am not sharing that and now realize I too am thirsty. I love the prayer and it spurs me on my way, by the way I had my spurs on today which she is not fond of and swishes her tail everytime they touch her just to let me know.
I stop at Greenbank to get a pie and coke and meet about 10 locals who all want to tell me their horse stories, lovely people but hard to eat a pie while talking to a stranger, its gets cold and I throw it out, ask some stanger to hold Trinity while I go to the loo.
I was planning to ride another 10 k's but with the shoe hangin off and the eye hangin out and the heat I decide God needs me to double back and cover the 10 k's I have done again so I head home instead. She is certainly more willing and miraculously her feet dont seem so tender on the way home. She is awesome and lazy and beautiful and too fat for 20 k's in the wrong direction.
So that is the glamour in the prayer ride. 1 day down and 3 to go. Talk soon, Pray without ceasing, just don't worry if it doesn't feel good!

26 / 100

2011-09-12T19:53:00.001-07:00

Here we are 26 days out from a God appointed showdown in the spirit realm. Remember He, (Jesus) is far above – not slightly above but FAR ABOVE all principalities, powers rulers and authorities on earth or in the heavens. To him every knee will bow and we will reap the promises He said, if we do not lose heart.

I do not pretend it is a simple thing to keep up your courage or your care when it is so easy to look around and think to yourself, ‘I’m OK, the foxtel is paid the Broncos are in the finals and I don’t live in Haiti. Prayer is indeed the greatest act of Faith when it is not for selfish gains and there is no instant gratification, in regard to outcomes (although to share time and burdens with the Prince of Peace is an extremely beautiful experience). Remember too, that life cannot be taken for granted and but for the Grace of God, we are not OK.

On Sunday night, a vision was shared that saw the breath of God marking those who would take their place as a warrior and contend for the Kingdom in this city. So we accept the branding of the Spirit and receive the mandate to fight the good fight, we put on the armour and stand tall knowing that God is for us and therefore any weapon raised against us will fall, it’s a promise!

The Third Year Promise

2011-09-08T23:49:00.000-07:00

THE THIRD YEAR PROMISE ….

THREE is an enigmatic number in the Bible. It is the chosen number of days that Jesus was ‘dead’. THREE days warning to cross over the Jordan and into the promises and THREE is the very significant number of persons in the Trinity. THREE things remain, Faith, Hope and Love, THREE temptations in the wilderness, THREE times Peter denies and THREE times Jesus inquired of Peter’s love. THREE disciples close to Jesus in His earthly ministry and THREE crosses on Golgotha and over 300 other sets of THREE.

In 2008, at the birth of our first ever 10000 campaign, I heard the Holy Spirit say that in the THIRD year there would be a shift, an enemy fleeing and the people of God celebrating. So now is not the time to give up but press on to take a hold of that for which Christ took hold of you. The promise? More sowing, more salvations, more ministry ventures, more harvest, more miracles and more blessing.

The THIRD YEAR PROMISE came to me from Isaiah 37 starting at 21.

"This is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says: Because you prayed … the Lord has spoken this word against your enemy:

"The virgin daughter of Zion despises you and laughs at you.
The daughter of Jerusalem shakes her head in derision as you flee…

… 30 "Here is the proof that what I say is true: "This year you will eat only what grows up by itself, and next year you will eat what springs up from that.
But in the third year you will plant crops and harvest them; you will tend vineyards and eat their fruit. And you who are left in Judah, who have escaped the ravages of the siege,
will put roots down in your own soil and grow up and flourish. For a remnant of my people will spread out from Jerusalem, a group of survivors from Mount Zion. The passionate commitment of the Lord of Heaven's Armies will make this happen!

We are currently in the THIRD year since God announced this promise to us. At the 10W camp we have stepped into this moment with confidence and joy. It is your time to receive the promise. Have there been challenges? Yes, will there be trouble in the future? Yes. Faith & Courage have enemies, but without Faith it is impossible to please Him.
I implore you to leap into this promise with your eyes wide shut to the circumstances and if you listen carefully you will hear the sound of Victory. Shut out the sound of the cautious and abandon the status quo and find yourself enjoying the promise and Hope in a brand new day – everyday! 10000 has no goals separate to the Heavenly Vision that pulsates in the hearts of the Warrior, that simply cries, ‘Your Kingdom Come’ You are the Warrior.

But you must hear this, I woke up just this Monday past and heard the still small voice of the Holy Spirit say, “Open your Bible”. I touched the Bible app on my iPhone and it opened to a scripture that I had been thinking about the day before but had not looked at. Here it is. “Be on guard. Stand firm in the faith. Be courageous. Be strong. And do everything with love”. 1 Cor 16 v 13

Strap on this sword, it is the Word of the Lord for those who will pray in the remaining 30 days of this campaign, (campaign; Oxford; series of military operations with one objective). And as we pray we give birth to this season of Peace, Prosperity and the Power of God that has been advancing since the Cross and which alone, can transforms nations.

Revival is inevitable to a praying Church

9 / 10 / 11 - 38 days till the biggest prayer meeting ever with multiple venues in this nation

2011-09-01T19:06:00.000-07:00

God is. All over the planet His Spirit is stoking the fires of prayer. Praying is simply communing with God and acting out of that conversation. He is saying, "Come Away with Me" and those who can hear will be wise to STOP and obey. When the King of Eternity wants an audience with his children we must run into Him.
When you get there in His presence you will undoubtedly feel the smallness of your worry. He is able to absorb both your fear and your doubt. Just sit quietly today and whisper His name, Yeshua!
In Isaiah 6, the novice prophet listens in as God the Father laments over the nation. Isaiah is overwhelmed at his own lack, but Faith must have stirred because he blurts out, "Send Me"
Oh for 10000warriors in every city, who would be crying out to get the attention of Heaven, saying, "Send me"

With 38 days to go, God is still looking for partners to prophesy His intentions into the earth realm. Please if you have not yet downloaded the 10 minute prayer, "The Cry of the Warriors Heart" do it now. Pray it now and everyday at least until we gather to announce that the Church is awake and ready to GO in His name. We are grateful for every single expression of His Body in this nation and want to play our part to see His Kingdom Come and His Will being done, in Jesus name, AMEN!

Eph 6:10-18

10 A final word: Be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. 11 Put on all of God's armor so that you will be able to stand firm against all strategies of the devil. 12 For we are not fighting against flesh-and-blood enemies, but against evil rulers and authorities of the unseen world, against mighty powers in this dark world, and against evil spirits in the heavenly places.

13 Therefore, put on every piece of God's armor so you will be able to resist the enemy in the time of evil. Then after the battle you will still be standing firm. 14 Stand your ground, putting on the belt of truth and the body armor of God's righteousness. 15 For shoes, put on the peace that comes from the Good News so that you will be fully prepared. 16 In addition to all of these, hold up the shield of faith to stop the fiery arrows of the devil. 17 Put on salvation as your helmet, and take the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.

18 Pray in the Spirit at all times and on every occasion. Stay alert and be persistent in your prayers for all believers everywhere.

The hand of the Lord placed me in a valley.

2011-08-08T20:46:00.000-07:00

This week I am reflecting on the 37th chapter of Ezekiel. He has a vision and in it he sees a valley full of human skeletons. Bones that he describes as very dry. Lets look at a couple of verses
Ezek 37:1-3
The Lord took hold of me, and I was carried away by the Spirit of the Lord to a valley filled with bones. 2 He led me all around among the bones that covered the valley floor. They were scattered everywhere across the ground and were completely dried out. 3 Then he asked me, "Son of man, can these bones become living people again?"

It is a familiar passage to anyone who has searched for power in their prayers.

Firstly note that it was God who placed him in the valley. Where are you and why do you complain when the steps of a good man are ordered by God, your loving Father. Fix your eyes on Him, thank him for the incredible opportunity that lies, dry and dead, before you. Just stay with these first couple of verses for today and consider it all joy, right where you are and realize that He has a plan, He is showing you the devastation so that you can fully celebrate the miracle. God is in your valley, He is faithful and longs to show himself strong on your behalf.

Makes me want to pray, to prophesy, to say what He says and see a miracle happen . Now go into your secret place and thank Him for where you are and ask Him to show you what He wants to do - then prophesy accordingly.

34 / 100 Same Old Dirty Tricks

2011-08-02T22:19:00.000-07:00

Read Ch 36 of Isaiah and there is Hezekiah staring down the enemy. The enemy begins ranting at God's people and explaining to them why they are going to 'lose'. He systematically challenges all the promises of God and reminds them of their failures.

Isa 36:4-10 "This is what the great king of Assyria says: What are you trusting in that makes you so confident? Do you think that mere words can substitute for military skill and strength? Who are you counting on, that you have rebelled against me? ... "But perhaps you will say to me, 'We are trusting in the Lord our God!'.

Transcribed into our lives we must answer these sometimes on a daily basis. Yes I am trusting in God and Yes these 'mere' words spoken in Faith to Our Father in heaven are far superior to military might, enemy lies and announcements of doom.

We, like Hezekiah are believing that God will intervene in our cities, and as we cry out to Him who hears us, we restate our dependance on the One who was and is and is to come. Your Kingdom Come, Lord Jesus.

Today especially Lord we pray for all who you have called to stand up on their feet in this great army you are assembling. May the 'sound' be heard in every corner of our nation and in the heavens, so that the day of the Lords favour can be unleashed on us and our children.

In the name of the King, Jesus, Messiah.

31 / 100

2011-07-31T19:36:00.000-07:00

Isa 37:21 Then Isaiah son of Amoz sent this message to Hezekiah: "This is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says: Because you prayed about King Sennacherib of Assyria, the Lord has spoken this word against him:"The virgin daughter of Zion
despises you and laughs at you.
The daughter of Jerusalem
shakes her head in derision as you flee.

Let me put you in the picture. King Hezekiah has been careless about God and has done some pretty dumb stuff. Then a more evil King comes to attack him and his city. His first response is to go into the presence of God and send for the prophet to 'hear the word of the Lord'.

Please take the time to read Is 36 - 37 if you are believing for your city or you have a challenge in your life and as you read, look for the keys that saw Hezekiah receive his victory.

Here in this verse, the prophet says, 'Because you prayed' ... and goes on to annouce the favour of God for his situation.

I, like you and Hezekiah, have done some dumb stuff, but do not let that keep you out of the presence of God. Go there, go there today, commit your plans to Him and he will establish you. This story is full of promises for the Warrior. We are believing for our city and I receive this word that Isaiah announces over my prayers. Take 10 mins today and go to the 'temple' and tell Him your cares and ask for redemption, in the name of His Son, Jesus!

Day 26

2011-07-26T01:50:00.000-07:00

A certain individual was seeking Justice in a certain city from a certain enemy, as are we. Read this parable every day this week. Take note of its ‘hand-picked’ characters and the outcome, it is a story of contrasts. Jesus has His heart on His sleeve as he concludes. Ask Him to help you understand. Remember that parables are ‘custom designed’ stories for disciples. At least once this week, pray the 10 minute prayer, “FOR OUR CITIES”. You can find it online at 10000warriors.com

LUKE 18

One day Jesus told his disciples a story to show that they should always pray and never give up. "There was a judge in a certain city," he said, "who neither feared God nor cared about people. A widow of that city came to him repeatedly, saying, 'Give me justice in this dispute with my enemy.' The judge ignored her for a while, but finally he said to himself, 'I don't fear God or care about people, but this woman is driving me crazy. I'm going to see that she gets justice, because she is wearing me out with her constant requests!'"

Then the Lord said, "Learn a lesson from this unjust judge. Even he rendered a just decision in the end. So don't you think God will surely give justice to his chosen people who cry out to him day and night? Will he keep putting them off? I tell you, he will grant justice to them quickly! But when the Son of Man returns, how many will he find on the earth who have faith?"

Day 17

2011-07-18T05:09:00.000-07:00

Greetings fellow soldiers. What an awesome privelege it is to get to be in this army that God is putting together around the world. Woo Hoo!

We are kicking off this week with, what has been dubbed the Lords Prayer. The disciples asked Jesus, "Teach us to Pray". If you are like me then you are thinking, 'excellent idea', Teach me to Pray. So we move to the edge of our seats to hear Him begin, "Our Father" Bombshell. Jesus just gave us an invitation into this divine and beautiful relationship with 'God'. Prior to this, they had heard Him call God, Father, but did He say 'Our', like, His Father, and Our Father! We share a Dad with the Saviour of the World who put us in equal standing with His own Father, and allows us to walk in our full status as His adopted children. So Lets go right now and talk with Our Father, He awaits your conversation.

Daddy, today I do not come tentatively, but boldy, knowing that Jesus has already introduced me to You and invites me into this divine family ...

Tillie Arela Blase

2011-07-10T23:17:00.000-07:00

Welcome to the world Miss Tillie Blase. Blows me away that something so small who, without even trying, can captivate me and make my eyes dance as I look at you in all your tiny perfection. Thank you Lord for all you do and for another wonderful glimpse of your grace.

Tillie's birth began 100 days of prayer for me. Her birthdate, the 7th of the 7th is prophetic in that 7 is the number of perfection and speaks of completion. It is a new day and I desire a culture of prayer, puctuated with moments of unity, solidarity and celebration of all God has promised. This year is the first in a new decade and I know that the season has changed. We are walking into a springtime. It is time to Plant and harvest, (no planting, no harvesting) and a time to tend and drink of the glorious riches of our inheritance. Life is Joy when you understand the journey is the destination. So here is to you Tillie, and all that you remind us of, Our Heavenly Father, the beauty of His ways and the perfection of His promises.

Psalm 149

2011-06-14T18:25:00.000-07:00

149 v 6 - 9

6 Let the praises of God be in their mouths,
and a sharp sword in their hands—
7 to execute vengeance on the nations
and punishment on the peoples,
8 to bind their kings with shackles
and their leaders with iron chains,
9 to execute the judgment written against them.
This is the glorious privilege of his faithful ones.
PRAISE THE LORD!

Here it is people. The mandate for every single believer to be a Warrior in this uncustomary war that is fought with songs and shouts out of the mouths of ordinary folk whose only qualification is the gift of their redemption.

What a joy to praise a King who gives us all that we need to live in him. That joy is then translated into the binding of enemy kings and the pulling down of strongholdS that strangle the destiny of nations.

When the prophet returned from victory in Judges 5, she sang with the captain of the army,

"Hear, O kings! Give ear, O princes!
I, even I, will sing to the Lord;
I will sing praise to the Lord God of Israel.

Do not remain silent, choose to partner with Heaven every single day and declare that His Kingdom must come and His will is that the Glory of the Lord will cover the earth.

IT IS JUST A MATTER OF TIME!

Its Time to Defeat the Devil

2011-05-09T17:46:00.000-07:00

A condensed version of Chapter 1 of Chuck Pierces Book by the same Title.

There is a moment for Change.

Believe that you can – and you will.
We are in TIME, but God is not.
When you are in TIME correctly, you can grasp God and His purpose for your life.
We are called to have transformed minds and be linked to the HEAD.
We must know our belief systems, and rehearse the word of God.
We must learn to worship and minister in our homes in preparation for hard times.
I believe the Bible IS THE WORD OF GOD.
It is living, powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword (Heb 4:12)
Faith comes by hearing – and hearing by the word of God.
I believe I can be a son and receive a full inheritance from Him.
I believe Jesus miracle-working power is available to us if we submit to the cross we have
personally been given.
This power enables us to walk in victory and it unlocks our futures.
I believe His power is working to align and redeem Nations.
God will bring Gentiles and Jews into one NEW man.

War with your Prophetic Word.

The world can not overcome his power of God’s life giving word when released through the
Spirit man.
The word is not bound by time but transcends from generation to generation.
It produces works-divine revelation and requirements that will manifest.
It is wisdom being released synonymous with speech, command, promise and prophecy.
Vision produces Faith. Within our vision is the allotment for our Provision

Faith develops and Increases.

We do not seek God just for information; we seek God so we can respond and relate to him. God
is not important unless He is the supreme importance in our lives.
Faith is not the same as belief. Faith is sensitivity, understanding engagement and attachment.
Faith is like a combination lock. We have many promises, but without combining and mixing
those promises with faith, we can not open up the way to enter those promises.
Secrets of God are revealed when we worship and reverence Him (Ps.25:12)
Faith is linked with submission of our will. Unless our will is yielded to His, we can not secure
our desires. Our faith is God’s concern. Only in HIS light, do WE see light.
This season is supernatural. Through HIS WORD we have POWER to overcome the enemy’s
plan.
When Chuck Pierce’s intercessors meet for corporate prayer, they discuss what the Lord
was saying from heaven and prophesying to them during the week. THEN THEY PRAY, and
WATCH and WAR with this revelation.

God’s people must leave “religion”, and their natural way of battle, and enter this
SUPERNATURAL SEASON WITH SHARPENED WEAPONS.
It is time to break new ground and gain new vision.
We need to extend our hands into the Heavenly realm, touch God and become “LIGHTENING
RODS” connecting Heaven with Earth.
God will release the sword of revelation which will connect with us to Do war

Every dark, evil, watching force cannot hide when God’s light invades the realm of earth and
illuminates our spirit with His revelation.
Revelation produces FAITH and FAITH OVERCOMES.

Lift your hands for a fresh touch.

Slack hands can not grab the weapon needed to defeat the enemy.
There is a new watchman call placed on God’s people. They will stand, observe, and see in ways
they’ve not seen before.
They will KNOW THE ORDER when things are NOT IN ORDER.
God is setting bodies, groups, towns and cities in order. We must see with HIS EYES, and not
MAJOR on MINORS.
God wants us to enter a NEW LEVEL OF FREEDOM – VICTORY.
Now is the time to prosper and be filled with His Holy Spirit.
It is time to soar above all atmospheric forces around us that would rob us of our faith and vision.
The call is to WITHSTAND and OVERCOME the wexing power of an enemy who opposes God
in you – THE HOPE OF GLORY.

War in Time

The enemy tries to deflate your spirit man so you can not soar in the heavenlies with Jesus who
paid the price to make us free.
You have been places in a sphere of authority
In crisis season the strategies of heaven must invade your sphere of authority
You must understand your sphere of authority and know how to operate with others in that
sphere. From here you will watch the formation of Your New
A sphere is” A circuit of motion, revolution or orbit. A wast expanse where your Heavenly
realm appears. A circuit of action, knowledge and influence linked to the functional area of your
involvement in areas you have authority

When you see what is NEW – You must tell your emotions to shake of all discouragement,
disillusionment, disinterest and resistance.
You MUST BELIEVE GOD HAS MORE FOR YOU – better than before.
You must go up into a NEW SPIRITUAL REALM – go beyond where you have been before.

10 key Revelatory War Points. ( Chuck deals with these in the chapters of his book)

1. How to enter the NEW SEASON that has begun.

It takes WAR to break out of one season and enter another. We all go through transition times.
Every transition time has 3 phases, and they all have warfare involved.

2. How to SEE and open your eyes to a greater dimension of the demonic realm.

How to take a stand against what has opposed you from having victory.

3. How to hear the Spirit of God.

Jesus will open the door to have an audience with the KING.
You will look again at revelation promises from the past.
You will receive the revelation you need to see manifestations of HIS Grace & Promises in your
life.
GOD’S SPIRIT IS READY TO MANIFEST IN A NEW WAY.
You will PROCESS and PROGRESS in your spiritual life.

4 How to colaborate with Angels and ministering Spirits
God has released ENGINEERING and CONDUCTING ANGELS.
We are entering into a new BUILDING SEASON.
A NEW Apostolic leadership is arising to lead the body of Christ into this KINGDOM season.
They will DOWNLOAD HEAVEN’S BUILDING PLANS for HIS Kingdom projects.
Angels will minister with fire in this new season, and we will see great demonstrations of
POWER, including unusual MIRACLES.

5 How to receive your new assignments and go forth into new Mission fields.
God will be sending some of His people into dark structures.
He will give you NIGHT VISION to see a path of righteousness through any unrighteous
structure.
Dark Spirits, who have stopped us bringing forth the harvest of the Son, will let go of the harvest
gates. (1 Cor. 16:9)
The word of God will enter places and groups of people that have resisted freedom.
Demon forces will part like the Red sea and will be held back while God’s children go into their
new assignments.

6 How to see and get into the next move of God.
Don’t just jump in the river this season – go to the source where it starts.
Go to the HIGH PLACES – topple the old thrones of iniquity, follow the river down, and
Break all dammed structures.
God is initiating a new move of COMPASSION and LOVE to see the needs of people.
His healing will be released, and whole neighborhoods, tribes, and cultures will experience a
POWER RELEASE.
Heaven WII and IS NOW invading your athmosphere and filling your mouthwiththe word that
will TRANSFORM cultures, structures and territories.

7. How to express JOY in a NEW WAY.
There is a SHOUT rising from us that will cause God to meet us with HIS SHOUT.
This shout is deep in your belly where the SPRINGS OF LIVING WATER FLOWS.
There is a new drink bubbling up within us that expels bitterness, pain and sorrow.
HIS JOY WILL BE OUR STRENGTH.

8.How to gain new vision and see your provision.
God will open our eyes to see things we could not see before.
ALPHA will show us how to begin what has to be finished.
OMEGA will show us how to walk things to the end.
Poverty and infirmity blind our vision – we need to “overcome and disconnect these two demonic
spirits handshake”

9. How to have a renewed mind and restored alive human Spirit filled with the Holy Spirit.
There is a path to freedom and deliverance leading to our destiny.
God is RENEWING OUR MINDS – he is giving us new crowns to present to Him, new turbans
and mind sets.
OUR MINDS ARE MEANT TO SOAR IN THIS SEASON.

10.How to understand the enemy’s vexing power.
How do you detect a curse that is working against you?

How do you discern a vexing power that is stopping the anointing within you flowing?
How do you break the power that have fragmented you and stopped you from expressing God’s
plan of wholeness in your life?

IN this book Chuck Pierce will explain this to you and give you TOOLS FOR VICTORY
He tells us that we will see ‘Babylon arise’ in a new way – BUT
WE ARE NOT TO FEAR – THE KINGDOMS OF THE WORLD ARE BECOMING HIS

This will happen as WE ARE SENT, as Daniel was, to be the GREATEST INFLUENCE in the
Babylonian system. His promise to us is: WE WILL OVERCOME.

IT IS TIME,

2011-03-09T18:47:00.000-08:00

Wherever you are, remember Jesus said, 'to the one who hears ... more will be given' So LISTEN UP, discern for yourself, is this I am hearing, something from God. I know we are in a vortex of spiritual unheaval. God has called so many people and groups to arms. Their fire flickers for a while and some dissipate, but prayers are eternal words. When we re-speak the words from God, standing as a voice for the promises of God, then they will not return to Him without accomplishing the thing for which He sent it. So stop beating yourself up that you got tired and roll over, put your feet on the ground and get up and start praying. Add your voice to the constant chorus of praise and prayer that goes up to God.

If everybody who ever got discouraged had their prayers voided then there would be no-one left standing. But God is faithful and just and He is always calling us forward, and He is calling you forward now. See the enemy just wants you to stop. Give up, allow you to think it makes no difference, and I am here to defy his lies and say that the Word of God is powerful and every time you wield it, there is a shift in the spiritual atmosphere. Jesus said, 'You have not because you ask not'. Check it out at Luke 18 v 1, He tells his disciples a story with this purpose, 'so you will always pray and never give up'.

There is no single way to pray. I have learned to engage with my Father in so many different ways. They are not difficult but rather enjoyable. They are not always solitary but often, communal. So dust yourself off, stir up the warrior within and pray. Your Kingdom Come and Your will be done on earth!

By Graham Cooke
Given at DaySpring Church, Sydney
21/11/10

[NOTE from the editor. This is an extract taken from a much longer address given by Graham Cooke. It was transcribed and sent to me. I have removed the general introduction and large portions that related specifically to DaySpring Church and her leadership. I have placed ellipsis (...) where that cut and paste has taken place]

I am fascinated right now by the spiritual atmosphere in Australia and by the spirit and the sense of promise over the nation. Last time I was here I said, the water level's rising, and I feel that, constantly, every day that I've been here. That sense of imminence, that sense of breakthrough, that sense that Heaven is gathering in one place for something. And what I see over Australia is that I see a wall of water coming towards Australia. I would say it's a spiritual tsunami, one that will go from the east to the west, from the west to the east, from north to south and south to north, and I really believe and a part of the feature of this tsunami , this wall of water, I believe it's going to flood the country. It wouldn't surprise me at all if, in every state and province, the water level in the natural doesn't rise and the drought quits across the whole country, cos I believe that the Lord is going to make us all wet. I know Australian men don't like being wet but, tough! I really feel there is an outpouring coming and one of the features of it, I think, I believe is that we're seeing the war starting to happen against what God is doing against the religious spirit that's captured this country. Some of that probably came from the mother
country, whoever that is these days, but I think there's a violence being done against the religious spirit in our midst. A religious spirit is pretty much always angry about something. It's negative, it's angry, it's judgmental, 'cos a religious spirit can never understand love, grace, mercy or kindness. So it never features in those things. It always moves out of a place of negativity, judgment, harshness, hardness, anger, bitterness, resentment. So we're going to see a violence done to that spirit which I think will be
fun. We're going to see a lot of ministries repenting because they'll have a change of heart, they'll come under a wall of water and, I believe, God will give them a fresh encounter of His goodness and His kindness and His mercy. I see a time of refreshing that is going to precede it. What I feel I'm doing right now is I feel a little like John the Baptist saying, Prepare the way of the Lord. I see two moves happening. I see a move starting right now, it's in the country right now, and it's like a season of preparation to get ready for a move of God that is coming, 'cos the move of God that's coming is going
to sweep across the country. And I would say that to take out your history of all your revivals and all your moves of this nation's history put them all together and what God does next will dwarf all of that. We're seeing a move of God that will be talked about all around the world. We will see a move of God that will not only increase the value of this nation spiritually but materially. We're seeing a move of God where all kinds of things will happen in the economy, in the spirituality of the nation, we'll see things like
crime drop, people getting out of poverty, we'll see business increases, we're going to see the Kingdom come and a move of God that will touch every part of culture and society in this country. We're going to see a wall of water coming that will sweep all around the country. We'll see a move of God that will attack that religious spirit in the church. It will overpower secular powers and overturn legislation to release the church into a stronger Kingdom dynamic in the very structure of our society. It feels to me like the church is going to be given a place in the country. We're going to see a breakthrough spirit in
supernatural power. We're going to see miracles happening in this country that we normally associate with other places. And people will come here because there are going to be breakthroughs against certain kinds of diseases and doctors and hospitals around the country and medical practices will be saying to people, the only hope for you is to go to Australia. Because there is in this place and that place there are miracles happening in this kind of disease and this kind of disorder. How about that? People coming to the end of the world, to be set free! That's funny. And what I see is a move of God in key
churches. I really believe that we're in a move of God right now, preparing for the move of God. We're in a season of preparation where the hand of God is upon us and I'm telling you, He really means business. I see a grace of God but I also see a terror of God coming upon us in the sense of, when God begins to move, in this season of preparation, there is an awe and a respect and a Godly fear going to rise up in our hearts and we're going to stop the stuff.... I know that in the natural and the political world the issue of sovereignty is right there in the background for us in Australia, and that's a cool thing, but the issue over the Australian church is the same one. It's the issue of sovereignty, it's the
issue of who really has the power in this nation? We're going to see a rise in warfare because we're going to see a rise in the sovereignty, the supremacy and the majesty of the Lord Jesus. Everywhere we look, God is going to commit us to a fight that we can win. And this season of preparation is to get us ready for that time. .... There's a wall of water coming and we're moving into a space in the Spirit that God has set aside for us. The water level is rising all across Australia and we're learning a new buoyancy in the Spirit, we're learning the joy, we're learning about the joy, the pleasure and the desire of God. We're learning about the passions of God for us. There's an acceleration amongst
us, an increase of momentum. God is redeeming time. It's time for us to move quickly. It's not a place for us to be splashing about in the shallows. It's time for us to go out into a deeper place. There's an increase in majesty around us. There are storms coming, too, into this nation. There are storms in the Spirit where we are going to take on the enemy in key high places and we're going to win through. Because we have a war to fight in this country and it's time we stood up and fought it. This season of preparation is so important because we get to defeat the enemy with joy and laughter. We get to hear the sound of Jesus laughing on the battlefield. We get to understand that there is a quickening
spirit that's going to allow us to break through on the left and right. The issue in the body of Christ is going to be the Lordship of Jesus. And the issue in our culture and society is going to be the sovereignty of God. Those two things are going together. ... There's a power and a majesty rising up in the body of Christ, and Australia's going to see the Bride standing in the midst of your own culture. And you're going to see the power of the Bride of Christ in these days. You're going to see what a woman in love really
can do. Yeah? We're going to see the power of that in the earth. There's going to be a place in worship where Heaven will touch down. There is a Levitical anointing being released across the nation. Heaven is going to hear the sound of the Bride to be worshipping. It's the sound of victory, it's the sound of power, the sound of anointing, it's the sound in Australia. And the sound of Australia is going to be heard around the world. And it is time within Australia's borders, it is time for the voice of Australia to rise up.
It is time for Australian ministries and Australian leaders to stand up, to rise up, and occupy a place in the Spirit. We're not going to need imports. I'm even hoping that you'll let me in the country so I can serve coffee at your conferences or something. The sound of Australia is rising up. This is our time. There are moments in history where God touches down in places and everything changes. We're going to see one of those moments in history.It's going to be a defining point for the contemporary Australian church to rise up, occupy a place in the Spirit. But you understand something. To whom much is given,
much is going to be expected. ... I believe the Lord is saying to Australia these days, to the Australian church, the country that you're in I am going to give it to you. I'm giving it to the body of Christ. Actually, I believe He's saying I'm giving it to the Bride of Christ that's emerging. This is a bridal issue. God is giving it to the Bride of Christ that wherever worship flows in this nation, wherever worship goes to a whole new level you're going to see outbreaks of the Kingdom. We're going to see a restoration of a Levitical anointing across this nation. And churches, communities that value worship, are
going to see expressions of the Kingdom coming down, touching down that are going to be extraordinary. But make no mistake - if you haven't made any growth in worship in the last couple of years you need to get your skates on. You need to do something in worship in the next twelve months that you've never done before. This is not a time for hanging out at the back, it's not a time for reading the Bible when worship is going. It's not a time for standing there, looking at your watch or your hands in your pockets. This is a time for engagement 'cos that's what happens when the Bride of Christ emerges. It's about engagement. It's about betrothal. It's about coming into a place of worship and
adoration and rejoicing and thanksgiving that you've never been in before. So, I'm calling every man, woman and child in this place. It's time to get in a deeper flow of worship personally. It's a time to worship God from the heart. This is not a place of engagement in worship in your head. This is a time for action. It is a time when you actually open your mouth and real words come out. We don't just think about worshipping God, our body, our mouth, everything in our heart is fully engaged in worship. So there is a challenge from Heaven right now upon every one of us and the challenge is about engagement. So love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, your body, your mind and all your strength.

Australia, This is Our Day!

Hello Warriors,

I take a deep breath and say from the bottom of my heart that I hope that the year has begun for you with a glint in your eye and an unwavering belief in the goodness of God.

A special word for those impacted by the floods, my fellow Queenslanders, Northern NSWelshmen, and Victorians, our thoughts and prayers have been constantly about you. Be strong and very courageous; cast your cares upon Him, because He cares for you. I will say this again, if you are in need please contact us, we are family.

Let me remind us of our purpose, tell you the game plan for 2011 and encourage all of you, my friends and fellow pilgrims to continue to stir the warrior in yourself, others and the greater body.

We are born for a Cause; but we do not wrestle against flesh and blood ever, but against principalities and powers, hosts of wickedness in high places. We do so by taking up the shield of faith, declaring the intentions of God and bringing the Light of the world, the Word of God into every frontier of this life. We hold our position and keep on ‘Asking for our Nation’ Ps 2. We at 10W believe for a widespread move of God that will not be contained in one group but that the Grace of God will gather multitudes for His names sake. These floods provide us with an illustration of the power of water as it makes contact with culture. First the natural then the spiritual, we are believing for our culture to be overwhelmed with the outpouring of God’s grace and the army rising up to ‘be there’ for humanity.

I want to share with you the specific promise that I am announcing this year. There is a ‘new season in God’, and it is ours to possess, to him who has ears to hear. The text I want to share speaks of ‘years’, but it is more about seasons, and I believe we are entering the 3rd year / season of this story. It will help for you to read from the beginning of Isaiah 37; (go to www.tenthousandwarriors.blogspot.com and read it now).

IN A NUTSHELL: A certain enemy is threatening the people of God by intimidating their King, who had previously been weak in his convictions. (But thanks be to Jesus who is our righteousness and who keeps no account of wrong). The King in trouble does 2 things immediately, which we could learn to copy. He goes into the temple to pray, remembering who His God is and he sends for the wisdom of the prophet (Isaiah) to inquire of the Lord.

While waiting for Word, Hezekiah, (the King) refuses to be engaged in conversation with his enemy, declares the power of God, and ignores the threats from the enemy. When the enemy sends another message, Hezekiah goes again into the temple, and into the presence of God.
When the king’s messengers arrive at the prophet and explain to him the situation, firstly he says
‘Do not be afraid’, and

Then Isaiah sent this message to Hezekiah:
"This is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says:
Because you prayed about your enemy King of Assyria,
the Lord has spoken this word against him:

"The virgin daughter of Zion despises you and laughs at you.
The daughter of Jerusalem shakes her head in derision as you flee…

Then to Hezekiah he says;

…"This year you will eat only what grows up by itself,
and next year you will eat what springs up from that.

But in the third year you will plant crops and harvest them; you will tend vineyards and eat their fruit.
And you who are left in Judah, who have escaped the ravages of the siege, will put roots down in your own soil and grow up and flourish. For a remnant of my people will spread out from Jerusalem, a group of survivors from Mount Zion.
The passionate commitment of the Lord of Heaven's Armies will make this happen!

I encourage you to step into this season of fruitfulness. Plant crops and believe for harvests. Gen 26 v 1 … And that year Isaac harvested 100 times more than he planted….
Tend vineyards, get involved in the mission of the Church, to make disciples, and let His praise be continually on your lips. Let your roots go down deep into God and trust God to the extreme and pray without ceasing. He finished this word with a bold statement that God Himself was the one who‘makes it happen’.

So here we go, head down and pray, 10 minutes every-day, dedicated prayer for our cities, our churches and our nation. Use the prayers at www.10000warriors.comto guide you. Sign up at the blogspot for more updates and be patient in trouble, strong and very courageous, remember his benefits and love one another.

I wrote in December what I believe God plans for this nation and I believe it with all my heart. This Autralia Day can we all pray the "Prayer for our Cities". (download it now at 10000warriors.com)
Join with me and let your message be, “The time of the Lords Favour is Now”.

Humbly yours,
Julie Blasé & the 10W Team

Isaiah 37

2011-01-23T22:53:00.000-08:00

Isaiah 37
When King Hezekiah heard their report, he tore his clothes and put on burlap and went into the Temple of the Lord. 2 And he sent Eliakim the palace administrator, Shebna the court secretary, and the leading priests, all dressed in burlap, to the prophet Isaiah son of Amoz. 3 They told him, "This is what King Hezekiah says: Today is a day of trouble, insults, and disgrace. It is like when a child is ready to be born, but the mother has no strength to deliver the baby. 4 But perhaps the Lord your God has heard the Assyrian chief of staff, sent by the king to defy the living God, and will punish him for his words. Oh, pray for those of us who are left!"

5 After King Hezekiah's officials delivered the king's message to Isaiah, 6 the prophet replied, "Say to your master, 'This is what the Lord says: Do not be disturbed by this blasphemous speech against me from the Assyrian king's messengers. 7 Listen! I myself will move against him, and the king will receive a message that he is needed at home. So he will return to his land, where I will have him killed with a sword.'"

8 Meanwhile, the Assyrian chief of staff left Jerusalem and went to consult the king of Assyria, who had left Lachish and was attacking Libnah.

9 Soon afterward King Sennacherib received word that King Tirhakah of Ethiopia was leading an army to fight against him. Before leaving to meet the attack, he sent messengers back to Hezekiah in Jerusalem with this message:

10 "This message is for King Hezekiah of Judah. Don't let your God, in whom you trust, deceive you with promises that Jerusalem will not be captured by the king of Assyria. 11 You know perfectly well what the kings of Assyria have done wherever they have gone. They have completely destroyed everyone who stood in their way! Why should you be any different? 12 Have the gods of other nations rescued them—such nations as Gozan, Haran, Rezeph, and the people of Eden who were in Tel-assar? My predecessors destroyed them all! 13 What happened to the king of Hamath and the king of Arpad? What happened to the kings of Sepharvaim, Hena, and Ivvah?"

14 After Hezekiah received the letter from the messengers and read it, he went up to the Lord's Temple and spread it out before the Lord. 15 And Hezekiah prayed this prayer before the Lord: 16 "O Lord of Heaven's Armies, God of Israel, you are enthroned between the mighty cherubim! You alone are God of all the kingdoms of the earth. You alone created the heavens and the earth. 17 Bend down, O Lord, and listen! Open your eyes, O Lord, and see! Listen to Sennacherib's words of defiance against the living God.
18 "It is true, Lord, that the kings of Assyria have destroyed all these nations. 19 And they have thrown the gods of these nations into the fire and burned them. But of course the Assyrians could destroy them! They were not gods at all—only idols of wood and stone shaped by human hands. 20 Now, O Lord our God, rescue us from his power; then all the kingdoms of the earth will know that you alone, O Lord, are God."

Isaiah Predicts Judah's Deliverance

21 Then Isaiah son of Amoz sent this message to Hezekiah: "This is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says: Because you prayed about King Sennacherib of Assyria, 22 the Lord has spoken this word against him:

"The virgin daughter of Zion
despises you and laughs at you.
The daughter of Jerusalem
shakes her head in derision as you flee.
30 Then Isaiah said to Hezekiah, "Here is the proof that what I say is true:

"This year you will eat only what grows up by itself,
and next year you will eat what springs up from that.
But in the third year you will plant crops and harvest them;
you will tend vineyards and eat their fruit.
31 And you who are left in Judah,
who have escaped the ravages of the siege,
will put roots down in your own soil
and grow up and flourish.
32 For a remnant of my people will spread out from Jerusalem,
a group of survivors from Mount Zion.
The passionate commitment of the Lord of Heaven's Armies
will make this happen!

YES & AMEN!

He is our Very Present Help in Time of Trouble.

2011-01-10T16:38:00.000-08:00

Calling all Prayers, Warriors who are proficient with their Sword. Let us declare the Goodness of God and His willingness to help us in times of trouble. We stand together at this difficult time and pray for those who are grieving. In the hours and days ahead we know that you are there. I see there is more to come yet and this is an opportunity for us the Church to SHine, to reflect Him who saved us.

We trust in you, Lord Jesus, You are able to save. When we call out to you, Your ear is open to our cry. We call out that people who are alive will be found swiftly, that our emergency workers will remain safe and that You will grant great wisdom to the Premier and the leaders in this operation. God we place our state and nation firmly in your hands. We trust in You alone.

The seasons were His idea.

2011-01-03T18:13:00.000-08:00

Here we are, everybody has said the mandatory, 'Happy New Year' and I have felt the energy of a brand new year as it dawns on us.

My thoughts and feelings are, it is a 'make or break' season. Grow up, Change, Do what you said you would do, And do it NOW.

When I was a child I spoke and behaved like a child. But when I grew up, I PUT OFF CHILDISH THINGS.

This is the year to put off the weights that slow you down. Be very blessed, God is able to do exceedingly, abundantly and above all ...

Look Up Your Redemption is Near

2010-12-06T20:02:00.000-08:00

The Sky is NOT Falling …… It is declaring His Glory!

I’ll be honest, I don’t remember the full story of the falling sky, but almost every week, I hear some dooms-day reporter, retelling the devils plans and the possibility of big trouble on the way and it makes me think of the chicken in this story.

Seeing the giants in the land and just how easily they could rip us limb from limb does not make us prophetic. Your natural eyes give you information and even your spirit man can inform you of activity in the spirit realm that is at odds with the purposes and promises of God.

This should not surprise any of us. Jesus already told us that the thief comes to steal, kill and destroy.

“BUT I HAVE COME THAT THEY MAY HAVE LIFE AND HAVE IT TO ITS FULLEST MEASURE”.

When you can hear these words of Jesus, and they resonate deep within you as a personal and a national promise, then you are beginning to understand how much God loves you.

For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, and whoever believes in Him will NOT DIE but have everlasting LIFE!

This is what we, the prophetic generation must ‘see’. How is God going to perform this great work on the planet? Through us! And it begins with seeing and saying what God is seeing and saying.
Get this clear, God has no problems. He has answers and we have them in our mouth. In the beginning was the Word and everything was made by Him and Nothing was made without Him. Say the Word, Pray the Word, Believe the Word and Do the Word.

Jesus said, The Spirit of the Sovereign Lord is upon me to preach the Good News to the Poor. Here is a good place to start. Become a preacher / prophet of Good News, to the poor, the undeserving, the sinner and the tax collector and the Church. Begin to see God’s great love for them, which He shed abroad in YOUR heart for them. His plan is to use the Church to display His manifold wisdom to the principalities and powers. This is Grace in all its beauty!

I am not discounting the burden that God gives us as people who stand in the gap. There is a time for everything. But, Jesus said, His yoke is easy and His burden is light. God’s wrath has been poured out on the body of His Son and He is forever more inviting us into His inheritance.
The earth groans and satans power is still at work on the planet therefore the Church must arise to shine, announcing that the time of the Lord’s favour has come. Let us be the ones who declare the goodness of God and prepare the way for Him to come.

One way we prepare the way is to go up on a high mountain and shout it out that God has made a way for everyone to have eternal life and to know the righteousness, joy and peace He offers.
The way of the upright is like the new dawn, it grows brighter and brighter until the whole earth is under the dominion of the King of Kings.
As the Holy Spirit shows you ‘things to come’, see God’s desire shining through it, to call people to himself.

SO Let me tell you here, what I ‘see; whoever we are, we only see in part. This is my part, born out of the presence of God.

I see this nation, even now, being positioned for an outpouring of the Holy Spirit like it has never been seen before. I see the Church being turned up-side-down by the grace of God, because of Jesus’ finished work on the cross. Every leader that is truly called of God will be included even if they have been hard at hearing up until this point, because God does not revoke His gifts and His mercy is everlasting.
However, some prophetic servants will emerge and give leadership because they have been guarding their heart and being an ambassador of unity and love. Satan has not been able to use them to prophesy his intentions but they have been set apart as heralds of God’s love.
People who have faithfully been praying, ‘Your Kingdom Come’ and ‘Your Will be Done’, will be rewarded like the prophet in the temple who saw Jesus as a baby and recognized Him as Messiah.

I see the demonic, new age spirituality backfiring on the devil and the Harry Potter generation becoming warriors in the army of God, who understand that their wrestle is not against flesh and blood but against the darkness itself. They will ‘get it’ and carry forward the promises of God.

This is The Great South Land of the Holy Spirit and the time is getting near for this Word to mature and the ripples are already being felt in prayer rooms and closets even now. I see stadiums filled with Warriors. Worship Warriors, who are not distracted by the goings on of the lesser beings, but who are captivated by the Presence of God and crying out to Him for justice on the earth and announcing it as they see it forming in the heavens, calling things as if they already are. How lovely are the feet of Him who bring Good News. The age of the prophets who have visions and dreams, previews of the manifest goodness of God, is now. I see Australia as a hungry nation, a sending nation, a Revival Nation. The restoration of the First Nation People to places of prominence and influence is a sign of the restoration of all things as God has promised.

This gospel of grace and hope, will be preached openly and zealously and in increasing frequency in the future. Those who judge will become irrelevant as those who can ‘see’ are given a voice. To all who want to participate in this move of God, repentance is required. Whether you are a sinner or a saint, change, in the attitude of your mind, is necessary. New wine cannot be poured into old wineskins. Something has shifted, it is time to shout. There is a cloud, it may only be the size of a man’s hand and it may still be on the horizon, but now is the time to do what you must to get ready for rain.

Please be encouraged and become a carrier of Good News. Forward this to a friend. Remember, your commitment to this regiment requires you to pray for 10 minutes daily, sowing the Word into the future and unlocking the destiny of our nation. I am praying the ‘Crossing Over’ prayer, at 10000warriors.com as I move into a new decade.

Merry Christmas. Do not despise the day of small beginnings, this all started with a tiny baby in an obscure manger and will end with every eye ‘seeing’ and every ear ‘hearing’. Be Blessed,

Humbly yours,
Julie & the 10W team

Bad News is Boring

2010-11-29T14:16:00.000-08:00

I am soooo over Bad News Prophets. You know anyone can read the paper, watch the news and come to the conclusion that Australia and in fact the World is in trouble. You need not be overly prophetic to 'see' what is wrong with your neighbours, the government, the schools and XMAS. I know it is meant to be Christmas and the world is trying to rub Jesus out of our experience.

HOWEVER, we are not people who bring an evil report. When we, the people of God, survey the land we return with the Good News, 'We can surely take it". When I read my Bible, I see that God says that the Whole Earth will be filled with his Glory, Hallelujah! Therefore I prophesy and 'SEE' things according to what God has said.

With my natural eyes I see scattered, dead bones, dry, disconnected and saying, all hope is gone. But with my Eyes of Faith, I 'see' a vast army, strong in battle, standing on their feet, full of the Spirit of God and ready to march. Nothing is created without the Power of the Word. It was in the beginning, and is still in the beginning of every new thing. So join with me and say, "Come breath of God, from the four winds and breathe in us.

Stop being a reporter, someone who reports from this realm. And become a prophet of the Living God, whose plans for us are for good and not for evil, to give us a future and a hope!

When a Stranger Calls

2010-11-08T20:42:00.000-08:00

Often, when a stranger calls, they are either trying to sell something to you or ask you questions that are none of their business and of no benefit to you, now or ever. HOWEVER, we have a God who wants to talk to us and He will sometimes use strangers, angels or otherwise, to encourage you and bolster you on your journey as you trust in Him. Let me share this testimony of God's goodness to me today.

I live in Logan, and I believe with all my heart that God is wanting to unleash the Church in this city in unprecendented ways as we join TOGETHER in this common goal of agreeing in prayer. I already hear good reports about the stirrings of God as people are praying. Churches and leaders are again feeling the hunger pangs of eternity rumbling in their spirit. The Spirit and the Bride are getting in sync for the promises of God to manifest in exciting and liberating ways. But it is just the beginning and to the natural eye we have a way to go.

There is a crusade planned for our city in the new year. Dr Bill Newman, (evangelist) will preach over a couple of nights and we hope to see a harvest of disciples born into the kingdom. A friend of his was praying in this regard when God spoke to him and showed him something with which he could encourage Ps Bill. On hearing the Prophetic Word, Bill Newman said to him, "I have someone I want you to tell this to". This stranger, not from Logan, unknown to me and to the dream I carry for this city, called.

"Father, I thank you for your voice and for faithful people who speak life into the dreams of others".

He called me, introduced himself to me and simply said, that Dr Bill had asked him to pass on a message to me. Then he said, 'In prayer I felt this strongly in my heart', "God has set aside 10000 scrappers, (fighters, warriors) in this city who will contend for the Kingdom". And that was it. God wants to talk to you today!

10W has a presence in many cities but I live here, in Logan, so I took this word, stuck it straight in my quiver and will use it many times to eradicate every thought that stands contrary to the commission and calling of God in me. I believe that God can save a nation in a day and I will do what I can to inherit that testimony in my city. So Warriors, 'be strong and VERY COURAGEOUS!

And work for the Peace & Prosperity of the city where I sent you into exile. Pray to the Lord for it, for it's welfare will determine your welfare. Jer 29 v 7

Picture This!

2010-10-14T21:58:00.000-07:00

The night at the Logan Entertainment Centre was fantastic. Seeing people who didn't even know each other, stand side by side and cry out to God was BEAUTIFUL. I can only imagine how that must bless God. It is true, the Bible says over and over again in the Psalms, that we bless the Lord in many ways. So last Sunday, I am sure God was blessed, we were totally blessed and I believe that the spiritual climate was changed over many cities and towns.

Several Churches contacted me with reports of God's spirit stirring up the Warrior in their Church and initiating repentance, worship, warfare and VICTORY SHOUTS!

My heart is overwhelmed with a sense of anticipation as we are moving toward the purposes of God more and more. Can I ask you all to read and reread, the vision given to Ezekiel in chapter 37. This is the dream, an army, on their feet, ready to prophesy. Just at the time the 'whole house of Israel' is saying, 'all hope is gone', that is the time to prophesy and see the manifestation of power throught the Church, which is His body.

You will find pictures of our Logan event at the link above or at 10000warriors.com

Grace and Peace to you and yours as you continue to believe and pray,
Julie

cliche's can be extrodinary in content

2010-10-08T20:12:00.000-07:00

We are an army. That is the cliche. We sometimes bore of ideas of which we are very familiar. But ask yourself, am I a soldier? If 'we are an army' blows over your head with a might ho-hum, then you may just be dangerously accountable for a revelation you do not manifest.

Yes, we are a bride, we are His beloved and He is ours. Yes we are a family where we find nurture and companionship for this journey of life. We are His house, where God dwells by His Spirit, NOW THAT SHOULD BLOW OUR SOCKS OFF.

But we are also an army. Paul admonished Timothy to 'fight the GOOD fight'. When we pray, we fight. But we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but principalities and powers, hosts of wickedness in high places. Not something we should address at our leisure.

So tomorrow, the troops have been rallied, and we are ready to fight for the King and His cause. To administer justice and grace to a scared world we must stand together and defeat these hosts of wickedness that are trespassing on our inheritance. 2 Sam 14, the story of Jonathon. Famous words, he says to his armour bearer, "Come on, let's go"

Waking Up!

2010-10-04T23:37:00.000-07:00

This is how I have come to understand the state of the Church in this nation.
In Acts 12, Peter is in prison. Herod had an intention to kill him but was politely waiting for the Passover to pass-over. In the meantime, the church was fervently praying for him at the home of some followers. Rhoda, the domestic help, was looking out for people who may arrive late at the prayer meeting, to let them in. Peter, in the jail, was pretty relaxed about his fate because he was asleep.

Let me interrupt here, to say that God has shown me this is a prophetic parable of the state of the Church in this nation. In regards to her collective potential, she is sleepy. Peter carried in him, all the potential and destiny of the glorious church, as do we. Peter was chosen to be a mouthpiece for this Good News and to unlock the supernatural power of God upon the earth, as are we. Circumstance sees him in prison, guarded by 4 squads of 4 soldiers, designed and determined to keep him locked up and they were happy he was asleep because it made their job to contain him, easy.

We pull down strongholds, (squads of soldiers), when we speak life and declare the intentions of God over the Church, which is His body. We see then, as the Church prays, that something amazing takes place in that cell, Peter wakes up. Then we read of miracles; visiting angels, opened prison doors, powerless guards and CITY GATES OPENING. Hallelujah!

You must see though, that when Peter arrives at the house they don’t even want to admit him because they thing that Rhoda is confused. No angels at the prayer meeting, no breaking chains or doors miraculously opening. When we pray, things change in another realm. I would love to see the manifest glory of God in all my prayer meetings but I will pray anyway, because God says that the weapons we engage with are mighty to pull down strongholds, so we pray!

I was asked recently, “What is the one thing you hang on to?” I thought about it for a minute, because there are so many promises I hold dear, but then I remembered something very special. In Ps 144 it begins, Blessed be God, who trains me to fight and to do battle… The Psalm finishes with a promise which holds the destiny of the Church and the Call of God for us as a nation in good stead. It is what I am believing for, a thriving, life-giving Church with all the potential for world changing inside her. The promise is;

“May your sons flourish in their youth, may your daughters be pillars in the house of God, may you be loaded down with goods and overflowing blessing” (my paraphrase)

This is what we need to carry this Good News forward and extend the Kingdom in His name. Hold on to this promise so that we can grow stronger from generation to generation and see the Goodness of God and the Power of His presence cover this land like water covers the sea.

Yours,
for an awakening of Biblical proportions.

CHARGE!

2010-09-28T23:52:00.001-07:00

I re-watched ‘The Lighthorsemen’ this week. If you have not seen the movie, please as your duty to know your spiritual history, watch it, in fact buy it. It demonstrates an aspect of the anzac spirit which I believe exists in the heart of every one of us, waiting for a cause, a risk and an adventure. On the DVD it reads;
‘They did what they were told, they didn’t know it was impossible’.

It is a prophetic parable for Australians to read.
In a nutshell, Beersheba, the gateway to Jerusalem was occupied by the Turks. The British army, which included 800 Australian Lighthorsemen, needed to take the city by nightfall or suffer defeat by the desert. The Australian Officer put up his hand to lead the challenge and cross the 3km plain, charge into the town and secure the wells for the sake of the allies. In so doing, a prophetic moment was created by pulling down an enemy stronghold and restoring the Well of the Oath, and opening up the territory, for the Jews.

I believe that as we stir up the warrior in our own heart and collectively call up the warrior spirit in the heart of the Church, such prophetic moments will present themselves to us and we will put up our hand and say, Yes, here am I.

10 / 10 / 10 - is just such a moment. Please don’t miss it!

ONLY 10 DAYS TO GO!

They did not know at that moment they were affecting the balance of power in the midst of a greater war. They just heard the call, mounted up and charged into history and became symbolic of a true warrior, fearless, brave and free.

It is your honour and duty to gather people to this moment. God says in Ezekiel 36 v 36 that He is ready to hear our prayers. He is faithful and anticipates our ‘asking’.
No -body can say, ‘I am not useful to the Kingdom cause’, if they will only pray. We do not wrestle against flesh and blood but against principalities and powers. Note; wrestling is a given. What we fail to attend to today, will demand our attention at a later time. So here we go - gather your friends, your family and your church. Get everybody geared up, full of faith and ready, then declare the promises of God over everything.

He has given us the power to call things that do not yet exist as though they already do. So we prophesy the favour and peace of God over our cities. We unlock the prosperity of Heaven over our Churches and ask for the unleashed power of God to flow through His body, so that many will be saved.

Contact me at info@10000warriors.com if you have any questions. Go to tenthousandwarriors.blogspot.com and be inspired towards this great mandate to pull down the Great South Land of the Holy Spirit in your region. Read Judges 4 to find out what happened to those who ignored the calling up.

I thank you for your diligence in being one who sees and hears. May your faith reward you and may His face shine upon you in a very special way during this campaign.

Humbly Yours
Julie Blasé & 10W team

In your home, your Church or somewhere in your town or city ... on this day ...PRAY!

2010-09-27T22:27:00.000-07:00

I went to a conference with some very respected speakers at it and I was both encouraged and challenged by their words. But a sadness settled over me because the things they spoke were not foreign to me or probably you. It is a dream that thousands of people in our land, carry in their heart.

They spoke of God's desire to pour out His Spirit in an unprecendented way in this nation. They spoke of the great need for prayer to rise from the heart of the Church and of unity and a great gathering of kindred hearts to the feet of Jesus.

I take nothing away from what they said and am grateful for their visit but my australian comrades, where is your voice. Speak to your mountains of indifference and fear, do not apologize for your passion, or for your great expectations of a glorious Church who bears His image and His name. We are a people who defy the status quo and do what's right. And what is right is that our sons would flourish in their youth and our daughters be pillars in God's house.

It is not OK with me, for them to stray from His love and mercy. He wants to fill them, bless them, give them the desires of their heart but we must pray and see His Kingdom Come in this way. What we ignore today, will demand our attention on a later date. But we are not of those who draw back but pressing on, we will see Him.

On the 10/10/10 all over our nation people will gather in groups small and large and Ask for our Nation. Let's be the movers and shakers of this moment and gather others in His name and for this cause.

When I think of all this I fall to my knees and pray...

Asking for Nations

2010-09-15T07:14:00.000-07:00

If you want personal revival, you spend time with God in personal prayer. Personal problem, personal prayer. Corporate need, corporate prayer. Regional issues, require regional prayer.

Who is asking for Nations? Joel chapter 2 is full of promises but is preceded with an admonition to CALL everyone out to pray. A gathering the prophet calls, 'A solemn Assembly"

What we face if we don't pray could be a far greater inconvenience than taking the trouble now to get in the presence of God and allow him to share a burden with you. Asking for Nations is on God's agenda. Ps 2 v 8 reminds us that the earth has been given to man, only ask.

Please gather others to this idea and we will move ever closer to the Church of our dreams. It is in God's heart and it is in our mouth. Only ASK!

I'm not busy, I'm living!

2010-09-13T19:33:00.000-07:00

When I ask how people are they say, "busy" as if they were some sort of slave. Are you busy or are you living. When you are fully living, you will be busy, so be busy - living! 10000warriors.com has been encouraging you to gather your friends, organize a prayer moment, and be a part of the biggest prayer event ever. So stop cleaning the house and make some phone calls. Put off the new floor this month and print some flyers, gather the Body of Christ TOGETHER and LIVE. Eph 2 v 20 - 22

In the Judges story from where we get our mandate to call up warriors in defence of His Kingdom, there are some people, tribes, who opt to stay out of the battle and therefore out of the victory. Strangely enough they are not directly asked to participate and yet are scolded by the prophet after the fact for not responding to the call for solidarity. Their fate ends up worse that the fight would have cost them.

There is a certain effort and maybe even risk involved in pursuing the High call to be a worship warrior and one who takes it upon themself to pray. However, it is nothing compared to the great sense of satisfaction that comes from being there when the Victory is announced in the earth realm. What an absolute JOY it is for those who put their hand up and VOLUNTEER to participate.

Excuse me - Just then I was interupted by a down-pour and I raced out to cover the boat. Peter does not like it when his boat fills up with water, go figure. While at first it seemed a real annoyance to have to go out there, after getting quite wet and laughing alot with my daughter, (it was harder than it sounds and involved, ladders, tarps and some yelling) I came back in feeling just that much more alive than when I left. Choose to fully experience this moment in history, for the Kingdoms sake and the sake of our children.

Read Psalm 144 and believe the promise of its final verses. Yours for Revival, Julie

Only sleeping.

Is the Church known as a praying people? Does the building where you fellowship become the 'House of Prayer' when people are there. Is it often filled with people who give their time to the cause of calling down the Kingdom? Do you ever go there, or anywhere, for no other reason that to be in His Presence and Pray. Do you have a place to pray? A place where you easily settle into the mood that quietens your spirit ready to enjoy the Kings attention?

I was in a waiting room once, when a muslim man stood up quietly, took out his prayer mat and kneeled in a space over to one side, began to bow and nod in the tradition of his religion. While I understand his motivation is not love from grace but is rather driven by other factors, I could not help but be moved by his devotion to an idea and his indifference to the rest of us in the room.

Power is released when we Praise, when we pray and when we believe, 'out loud'. The same mighty power that raised Jesus from the dead and seated Him high above ... everything. He is enthroned, crowned when we Worship. Call it worship, praise or prayer - these disciplines are our expression of trust in our beautiful, wonderful Saviour.

I believe that a widespread move of God is our only hope in regards to seeing the future of the Church, the Bride of Christ, flourish in our lifetime. I know that she, as the Body, has many great attributes and there are many things she is doing well. But she must begin to court the presence of God like her life depends on it - BECAUSE IT DOES!

Logan Entertainment Centre

2010-09-06T23:40:00.000-07:00

Calling all Logan residents and leaders. God is doing something wonderful among us, do you not perceive it? What an amazing God we serve. In 2008 I was doing my annual prayer walk across the city when the Holy Spirit whispered several things to me. A dream was born. In the past week, all I can say here is that a divine appointment has been realised giving me great confidence in all that God promised me, on and since that day. Like a down payment on a dream.

On Sunday, October 10, we as the Church in Logan City, (and other cities too) have 3 options. 1. Lets bring our whole church to the Entertainment Centre at 5pm and lift our Voice in triumph, believing that He is faithful who promised. 2. Send a delegation from your church to join with us there. and / or 3. Take 10 minutes aside from your Sunday Service and pray with the focus of 10W which is easily ascertained from our website, in a nutshell - ASK OF ME AND I WILL GIVE THE NATIONS AS YOUR INHERITANCE.

From the east coast to the west I am believing that the Church will stand and pray for these Holy, (set apart) 10 minutes and send a chill down the spine of our enemy and deliver a breath of Holy Ghost fresh air to the dreams and destiny of our nation. AMEN Lets do this thing!

It time to be proud to be praying

2010-09-06T01:33:00.000-07:00

At the beginning of the year I heard the Holy Spirit tell me to follow the template of Esther and He would show me how to keep 10W on track. I have no intention of starting something in the Spirit and continuing it in the flesh. That does not sound like fun. To be honest I have had to take authority over my members to stave off anxiety and rest in peace as we draw closer to the day when the Church roars. I will work as hard as I can to make the day a success but I am just a dim reflection of how much Jesus desires for us to ASK OF HIM Ps 2 v 8. We have this treasure in earthen vessels. The treasure is the point so I put my body under, and declare that I will seek His Kingdom and rest in His peace as I cast all my cares upon Him. We serve a wonderful Saviour. God has faithfully led me through the story of this brave woman as she stood up for a nation and redeemed an inheritance in the process. If I perish I perish! Now that is a liberating way to live. I was driving along the other day and in my daydream I realised that with just one small degree of difference I could be in the Presence of God, instantly. It seemed like a comfort to me and delivered me from all fear. Dying is not the worst thing that can happen. Our eternity is secure so LIVE. And they did not love their lives so much they were afraid to die! So I, like Esther, send my letters to diverse places, both online and snail mail hoping always to find the man of peace and have the call to prayer ripple out exponentially. Let your Kingdom Come

Beginnings of 10W - Biography

2010-08-06T01:07:00.000-07:00

BIO on 10W – Who are we. Founded May 2009
We are a group of people who believe that ‘With God all things are Possible’.

I, Julie Blasé, founded 10W after a specific call from the heart of God.
As I was reading my Bible in my ‘closet’ one morning, the words in a particular passage lifted off the page and took on life as they burned into me;

“Call up 10000 warriors … and I will give you victory”.

As I sat back, amazed at this feeling, I said, YES, Yes! I really in that moment had no idea what or how I was going to do this. I had not previously been involved in the prayer movement, although I did love to pray. I had also, already become what I now call a
‘10 minute warrior’. This was because in my busy life I had been seizing these bite-sized pieces of time to engage with Heaven on behalf of my family, church and city.

As I felt the Holy Ghost excitement mount, a series of brilliant thoughts came to me in less than 5 minutes. I will list them as they came to me.
1. Invite others to become ’10 minute warriors’
2. Pray for Peace, Prosperity and the Power of God to come. (Binding up strife & violence, greed & poverty and indifference & jealousy).
3. Get people involved in prayer campaigns like the 52 days taken for Nehemiah’s to rebuild the wall, or Esthers 3 days of prayer and fasting)
4. Gather people for the Victory Shout at the end of the campaign.

This was freshly breathed to me from Heaven and I was not going to miss this opportunity to partner with Jesus to see His Kingdom Come in this land. What followed was the miracle favour of God on our endeavours to ‘call up’ and to ‘cry out’. We have prayer walked and worshipped long, we have prayed and cried and seen miracles and met amazing people who all have a common heart to see this land restored to her Destiny. JOIN US and become a part of this VAST ARMY that is rising up. Ezekiel 37

Choosing Life

2010-08-02T21:29:00.000-07:00

People everywhere are saying the same thing. Actually they have been saying this for a couple of decades now, like they have no control over it. You ask, ‘How are you?’ But what they seem to hear is; ‘please whine about your lack of time?’ Busy, busy, busy, that is the mark of true success. Or is it? Of course it is not.

If you are busy then that is how you have chosen to live your life. It’s true. Who makes your decisions if it isn’t you? But I have to do this and do that, you say. Not true. You do have to eat, you must show kindness and love others, worship and pray without ceasing, rejoice always and tell others about Jesus, which are all liberating and life-giving things to do. Otherwise you are free. Absolutely free to discover and enjoy the abundant life that Jesus bought for us at His death. Sound too simplistic? Write it out, your priorities and your purpose. Do you need all the things that tie you down and use up your life. Do they add to you or take away. Nice things are only that, nice THINGS.

The Bible exhorts us to Choose Life. So that is our responsibility to choose those priorities that bring life and add to others lives. I find that people who are tired often decide to simplify so they start culling activities to try to get more time. More time to … ? People cut off the easiest things to see, often wrongly thinking it is these things that are consuming them. Then they live smaller lives with less contact with others but are surrounded by NICE THINGS. Maybe the answer to your ‘busy problem’ is not the night out you spend investing in the lives of others but it is the constant nagging feeling that you are overcommitted financially. Maybe it is the expectations of others to perform in having everything just ‘so’.

You know I have proved a couple of things that I want to share with you. Kids do not fade away if they do not have a cooked meal every night. Grown ups also survive fine with a weekly evening meal of ‘Toast’. Why do we give some things such a high priority and others like prayer and meditation none. We often hear people say, they struggle to have a devotional time with God, but no-one really struggles to have a nightly shower or to eat. It is normal to think that organizing your kids, lunches and homework and transport to school is of paramount importance but regularly neglect to teach them the scriptures or to nourish their souls with the concepts of God’s Love. Do we really need all those channels and all that stuff in the shed? Is it going to eternity with you in the end? Then it is negotiable. I didn’t say it is wrong, but it is optional, and it is your choice.

Determine what God requires of you; your calling, your loved ones and your gifts to the Body of Christ, and do that first. IF you have time and you want to, pick and choose what else you want to pick up. It is all negotiable. Fear God, love righteousness and justice. Love one another. Examine the life of Jesus. He gave every waking moment to His Father in Heaven and to the people around Him. No encumbrances, no debt, no need to impress. He is the way, the truth and the life. If that seems undoable to you, then ask yourself; who or what is influencing me? Don’t take your cues from your culture, take them from the Word and then you will be like a tree planted by the river of Water, bearing fruit in every season. Ask God, He will help you to know what to hold and what to let go, and do not be afraid, because He is with you, even to the end of the age.

Last Saturday, JULY 10 – 10000 Warriors Walking for Peace.

This day was a wonderful success because people were praying and believing together for Peace and Prosperity for our cities. Together we asked for the Power of God to be poured out in our Land. I heard reports from around the country of people who gathered together in groups small and large to pray. Here in Logan, we gathered at the council for a Holy Ghost time of fervent prayer and some worship. God graciously gave me a sign that He was with us as we met.

NOW … let’s talk about our nation. Do not let your heart be troubled … believe in me. Jesus

There will always be a lot of noise generated by fear. Voices that give us reasons to be afraid must be filtered through the words of Jesus, who says; “Take Courage”

Almost every day I hear reports about how God is stirring people to pray, which is very good. This tells me that God is calling us to build a highway in the Spirit so that He can come. However, we must be diligent to discern the message in these voices and determine to hear only those that agree with Heaven. God is good, He knows the plans He has for His people, plans for good and not for evil, to give us a future and a HOPE.

When the prophet Ezekiel, was in the Lord’s presence one day, he was carried away, in the Spirit, to a valley. In the valley were bones. They were human bones, dry bones, useless, dead, and long time since they were alive, bones. These bones were good for nothing to the prophet. He wandered among them and confirmed that they were dead men’s bones, in answer to the angels questioning. (Ezekiel 37)

In verse 11, the interpretation begins. These bones are the whole house of Israel, (the people of God). They are saying, “We are doomed, all hope is gone”.

This is the underlying message in some of the voices you may hear. Voices that confirm our inadequacy, remind us of our deadness, our dryness and our history of being so for a long time. But this is stating the obvious and only half of the story and the solution is found in this same vision given to the prophet as a lesson to us today.

The prophetic voice, here from the Word is clear. No amount of talking about the bones will help. We can discern our deadness and diagnose the danger of lying for centuries in a valley, if we enjoy wasting time. We can stay up late worrying about how to dispose of all those bones. We can talk about the valley, the bones or even try to move some of them to make some space for some really ‘alive’ folk, BUT in verse 12 it gives us the solution, do you not perceive it?

… THEREFORE PROPHESY …

Whether the dry bones lie in the valley of your marriage or in the heartland on our nation the answer comes when we give voice to the declarations that come from His Presence. Here are some.

I will make breath enter you and you will come to life.

I will pour out my Spirit. Your sons and daughters will prophesy.

I will restore the years the locusts have eaten. I will multiply your seed. I will give you whatever you ask, in my name. I will be jealous for my land and take pity on my people. I will answer you when you call on me.

When we read in the Word;

If my people who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray, turn from their sin, and seek my face, then I will hear from Heaven, forgive their sin and heal their land.

2 Chron 7 v 14

The onus here, is on you and me. Not them, not their sin, their deadness, but mine. Come on people, practice humility, turn away from self righteousness and accept the righteousness of Jesus’ blood as the only antidote for death and prophesy like He taught us;

Your Kingdom Come, Your will be done, on earth, as it is in Heaven.

PLEASE GO TO 10000warriors.com and download the new 10 minute prayer, ‘Speaking to the Bones’ . And begin to announce change over your life and together over our nation.

Join with others and begin to prophesy. At 10W, we are worship warriors. This is how I do it. I put on some music that glorifies Him and ushers me into the secret place. I worship Him and empty myself of all anxiety by thanking Him . I bring my personal needs before Him and rest in His love. …THEN, I strap on my armour, Eph 6, and I take out my weapon, (all our 10 minute prayers are based solidly on the Word). Or I just go freestyle and begin to prophesy the intentions of God over my city, over His Bride and into the life of our nation.

Then I thank Him for allowing me to participate in His redemptive plan for the planet. I smile to myself at the wonder of His grace that allows me to co-work with the Holy Spirit, who makes all things new.

Rejoice in the Miracle. What we are now doing is the manifestation of a word that God gave me both privately and publicly. In April of 2009, I was at a conference. I had told no-one but Peter, about my personal encounter with His Spirit, 3 days prior. 3000 people were in the meeting and one of the preachers laid their hand on me and Peter and said, GATHER, GATHER, GATHER, GATHER, GATHER and went on to describe what we now see. This was a wonderful confirmation. First the spiritual, then the natural. Therefore Prophesy!

So, Warriors, well done. We are now heading toward the 10th of the 10th in 2010. Mark your calendar now and begin to inspire those around you, so that on the 10th day of October, all across this nation we will have the biggest prayer meeting ever, spread out like a Holy Spirit blanket over our nation.

Your sons and daughters

2010-06-28T19:48:00.000-07:00

These are 'those' days where the ear-mark of the Church is the flow of the Spirit through our sons and daughters, men and women alike. They shall dream dreams, see visions and prophesy. In your praying, expect the God who speaks, to give you understanding through dreams and visions. Early this year I was taking a few days out to pray and fast. I had felt an inner urge to get away from my 'life' for the express purpose of spending time with my Heavenly Father. From the first moment I drove out my driveway till the last, I did not feel alone. The Holy Spirit was with me in the same way you would be with a longtime friend. No bored moments or awkwardness. Just a wonderful sense of peace in His presence. He shared many things with me over those few days and I felt nourished on every level of my life but I want to share with you, one specific picture that I saw vividly.

I was wide awake, in prayer, singing I think, and this moving picture began, its details unfolded as I merely watched it play out. I submit it to you.

I was in a large auditorium filled with hundreds of people, laughing, chatting and interacting. They were well dressed and all seemed to be in a good spirits. Conversations were flowing about kids and work and the stuff of life. I was a silent observer somewhat enjoying the vibe and the life that was being experienced. It appeared to be a well organized event where people were enjoying each other with a sense of comradship. No one was in a hurry to go anywhere but rather content to be in this atmosphere that was humming and full of energy.

After taking it all in, I became curious and began to look around. Something inside me begged me to cast my eyes over the scene as if I was being 'watched' from some vantage point. I then noticed that behind the stage there was a thick curtain, like you might find at a theatre to accommodate a backstage area. Seeing this intensified my curiosity and I felt like a secret agent as I looked around and began to make my way to the stage area. I walked to the back of the stage and glanced back across the room, noticing that my movement had not disturbed anyone, in fact no one even seemed to be aware of my presence.

I stepped through the curtain and was immediately in a completely different atmosphere. Firstly, I noticed it was bathed in a soft blue glowing, similar to being underwater in a crystal clear sea. The light danced slightly and the noise from the first room could no longer be heard. The room was an open space that was almost as big as the original room but much fewer people, maybe 20. It was calm yet brimming with a quite energy. People were getting dressed, in various spots and most people were being attended by another person. I looked and saw someone being prepared in a 'fantastic' type of battle attire, well fitted, aesthetically bold and yet inobstrusive. With one leg up on a chair a weapon was being strapped to their leg by the helper. All over the room, quiet conversations were taking place as people were being equipped and getting ready for their role. As my eyes moved around the room, these people noticed me, looked at me with smiling eyes but kept doing what they were doing with intention and focus. I instantly knew that the people in the first room were there because of what was going on in this room. I took it all in, this sparcely occupied room. These fierce people with a bigness of heart expressed on faces that emanated a rare confidence. They were being fully prepared, armoured, unstressed, almost serene and bathed in this glorious light. Each one clearly knew their task, including their attendants and was ready to perform it.

My understanding of the picture is this. The big populated room is the Church. Many people are blessed and function in the context of relationship as they come together to glean and participate in the Life that flows from the Grace of God to its members. It was filled with activity and talk and a certain momentum carried it along. The people were happy in this room but mostly oblivious of what was happening in a parallel room.

The second room was like the place of prayer. It had a whole lot less people but they understood their place and went about their 'work' in a way that needed no introduction, no fussing. The light was the presence of God and the Power that is found in Him. Both armour bearers and warriors were backstage and were not concerned so much with the 'stuff' of the other room, but had a keen sense of purpose for the sake of the greater good of the Church, which is Jesus' body. God is calling people to come and be equipped, get prepared and carry the work of the Kingdom forward in a parallel place. There, you will experience a peace and a purpose that will ripple into the realms of reality, moving us all toward victory and maturity in Jesus. Our precious Holy Spirit beckons us, "Come backstage, get in My presence, feel the anointing and empowerment that comes from being fully equipped and see His Kingdom Come!

July 10 - Dream with me!

2010-06-17T02:03:00.000-07:00

Can you imagine the Church in the city having a public prayer meet. What if she stood up and took her place as the voice of God declaring His intentions over your region. David prophetically sings; "Ask of me and I will give you the nations..." So come on let's ask. And he who asks, receives! On July 10th, 10 thousand warriors will take to the street to arrive at their city's HQ, local council chambers to stand in the gap for its members. Gather your friends and family, your small group or your entire congregation for this cause and see what happens when the people of God pray.

I envisage that in many towns and cities of this nation there will be individuals and groups of various sizes, taking the initiative to go down town and PRAY. Try to arrive around 11, encourage each other and then, armed with your 10 minute 'Prayer for our Cities', 10000warriors.com , walk around the building and pray for 10 minutes at 11.30am, believing for change in the spiritual climate of your locale.

I have heard it said that the Church is the biggest people group in the world, and I believe if we can establish some solidarity of vision we can confidently pray, Your Kingdom Come ... This vision is an Australia who is a beacon of hope to the nations of the world. Think its far fetched? With man this is impossible, but with God, ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE! See ya there.

Come and See

Hello Church, I want to share a dream I recently had. I believe it is an exhortation to 'stir up the prophetic' and to honour the Voice of God and the insight by which He leads us. It is too easy to trivialize the things we hear, but remember the words of Jesus, "be careful how you hear, more will be given to the one who hears". Here is the dream.

I drove up to a mountain top lookout with some friends. On arrival I got out the car and immediately started to slide over the edge of the ridge. I fell only about a metre and landed on a ledge where a dog was chained. I climbed back up, dusted myself off and began to look around. As I did, I noticed a large bald eagle walking around, injured and unable to fly. No one seemed bothered by it so I said to the others, 'that eagle is battered, we should get help for it". They seemed disinterested and warned me that I would just get hurt if I tried to attend to it. I reluctantly agreed and reasoned that there was nothing I could do and turned my back to enjoy the view. As I did the eagle crashed into me as it tried to take off, grabbing on to me on its failed mission to fly. This stirred up my resolve to help it. I held it in my arms and went in search of help.

I entered a nearby shop and asked if they knew the phone number of somewhere I could get help for this large, majestic, rare, endangered, visionary eagle. The attendant woman showed me a number to call some people who were dedicatd to helping injured wildlife. The number to call was written on the wall but I just could not read it. It seems the area was too dark and the reflections all wrong and I just could not read it. I asked to woman to read it out to me and after getting help to dial the number, a man answered the phone and I told him about the bird and its plight. He was disinterested and said that such an animal was not worth his trip.

Eventually he agreed to come and pick up the eagle, which, all the while looked desperately in need of attention and beckoned with its eyes for help. I then left the bird with the woman but I noticed another dog, the same as the one on the edge of the lookout, in the room and asked if she would chain it up to keep the eagle safe till help arrived. I left the room and the dream ended.

I understand the eagle to represent the Vision and discernment that the prophetic gifts are to the Church. As I stood on the lookout, the place to see, as in Christendom, little or no attention is given to the fact that this aspect of our calling is not functioning but rather wounded and ineffective. While there are dangers (the dog on the ledge and the possibility of slipping of such a ridge), it is our responsibility to take care of each other, function as a Body and nurture the prophet's calling and the prophetic gifts, which have become endangered. The power of the eagle is to 'see' to evaluate from a higher perspective. Our job as the Body is to protect this gifting from the inherant dangers that comes with the calling and to disciple the dedication required for the prophetic to function. Our churches have been 'led' by great principles and great leadership qualities sometimes to the detriment of the Supernatural ability to 'see' and 'go'.

Two last points, when trying to find help for the eagle, support for this necessary gift, I struggled to find anybody who was concerned and then when I found the number to call the one who was meant to be a source of healing and restoration was nonchalant at best. This is a cry from the Father's heart that we who are mature must nurture the prophetic in those around us, looking for leadership and wholeness in this prophetic generation that God is raising up. We must prepare the way of the Lord and restoration of the prophetic in our families and churches, nurturing it and bringing it to full health in the context of the Body is essential if we will be the Body of Christ in all her beautry and authority. Thank you Father for leading us, help us to hear and follow.

Passover Me!

2010-03-31T18:33:00.000-07:00

My mind cannot contain the immensity of the ideas that Jesus delivered to us in His death and resurrection. It rolls off the tongue with so much ease that, at times, the magnitude and its implications are obviously outside the realm of our understanding. I do not mean to sound pedantic, but I just cannot seem to be able to express how totally different the world is and my experience as a child of God is, in the light of the cross. Every verse in the Bible is loaded with the message of this Amazing Grace and I pray, like the great apostle, that our hearts will be flooded with light, and that light is Jesus and the BRILLIANCE of His life. This is the LIFE that He delivered to us via His sacrifice, once and for all for our sin. Thank you Lord that death now Passes Over Me, and instead the life that I now live I live in the Son of God. Yes and Amen, Happy Easter!

'time - irreplaceable

2010-02-17T17:22:00.000-08:00

Hello people, today is the day that God our Father ordained. Since the beginning of Time, this day was on His agenda. People will be born today and who knows who they may become. Be nice to children, you know not to whom you talk. People will die today and others will mourn their loss. The truth is you, reading this, may not be alive this Time next week, where then will you be. HOWEVER, this is the day that our gracious Lord has given to us, 24 hours of Life, a gift to each of us. What will you do with it. If you were a visitor to this planet for just 24 hours what would you do. Run, laugh, enjoy, meet people, breathe deeply of the love from those around you. Oh how God must be so patient with us when we don't realize what a Gift each day is.

Today I am at a very close friends home. I come here every week, just to be with her. She is young and beautiful. She has 2 beautiful daughters and Cancer. Her body carries multiple tumours, all inoperable. Hopeless in physical terms. Each day a gift. Cherishing conversations, remembering beauty, relishing laughter and love. This is the Day that the Lord has made let us REJOICE AND BE GLAD IN IT! We use up our lives in 'day sized compartments' or we live each one fully for others and for His pleasure. Teach me Lord to number and name my days, to choose to fully live in each one, letting go of stuff that binds me to yesterday and blurs my vision of the spectacular beauty of TODAY! If I have questions Lord let them first be filtered through this knowledge that sufficient for the day is the trouble therein.

Thank you for leading me into all Truth, by Your Holy Spirit, Your daughter, Julie

Love, Power and What!

2010-02-08T21:31:00.000-08:00

Talk, talk, talk, that’s what we do. We are good at it, especially if we are preachers by calling. But if we ever shut up, we hear a sound. Be still for long enough and it is undeniable. The voice of the Holy Spirit. Ever ready and graciously persistent, reminding us of God’s love and of the grand purpose of our lives, which is to know Him and release the power of His resurrection into our world manifesting our ‘sonship’ and demonstrating His love.

On a recent reading of Paul’s admonition to Timothy to stir up the gift of God in him, he reminds this spiritual son of his; “For God has not given you a spirit of fear, but of love, power and a sound mind” (one translation renders sound mind as self discipline). As I meditated on this idea I thought about you and me. We all have plans and goals and dreams. We want to do more for the Kingdom and lose weight and be a better spouse and read more or less or whatever, right. The great obstacle to the manifestation of these desired realities is ... lazy! We sometimes call it ‘self’ or ‘the flesh’. But call it what you will, basically we are lazy.

See I like to be fit, but Christmas has me not exactly in my prime. I went and bought a German Shepherd dog to be my running partner. I am equipped. I like running so I have desire. I definitely value my health, so I have motivation ... do I run? No. The dog is now 2 years old and has never run with me. This same attitude can leak into our good intentions and our God dreams.

You see, Love and Power as spectacular as they sound, are absolutely worthless with out self discipline. Do not spiritualize these and think that your faith won’t need some serious work to accomplish what God intends. The Church must find her will to be and do all that God has hardwired her to be. We must gather up our cloak like Elijah and run. The prophet Isaiah wrote it like this, “Arise, shine, your light has come ... the glory of the Lord is risen”.

God is not reluctant to release His promises. His power and His love reside in us, so overcoming first the fear and then the overwhelming inclination to remain comfortable, daily.

We have the ball, so some offensive moves are necessary to extend His rule. The gates of hell are buckling, and I am going for a run.

Your Kingdom come and Your will be done, on earth as it its in heaven,

Yours for Revival,

Julie Blase

From Covenant to Kingdom

2010-01-24T16:22:00.000-08:00

God of creation approached a man whom He had made and initiated a Covenant with Him. Offered life and blessing, protection, inheritance, sons and honour IF he would participate in the Covenant. This is an image of what Jesus reclaimed for humanity through the work he did on the cross. Yes that was His work, to obey His Father, He went to the cross. No one forced Him, He gave up His life that we might have life and experience it to the full.

In the same way that Abraham entered into Covenant with God through blood sacrifice, we enter the Kingdom through Jesus' blood, through his love demonstrated at the cross.

In the Kingdom of which Jesus spoke, there is a people rising up, reclaiming the covenant relationship we have with The Father. There is life and power and freedom in the Kingdom IF we will participate through surrender. Paul wrote, I want to know Him and the Power of the resurrection... My only goal this year, this ONE THING I do, forgetting what is behind I press on ... to become one with Him so that I can experience the power of the Kingdom in me.

The Barbarian Way E. R. McManus

2010-01-10T20:59:00.000-08:00

Because Jesus did not suffer and die so that we could build for ourselves havens but so that we might expand the Kingdom of His love. Because invisible kingdoms are at war for the hearts and lives of every human being that walks on the face of the earth. And times of war require barbarians who are willing to risk life itself for the freedom of others. The irony of course is that barbarians are driven away in times of peace. They only disrupt our communities, traditions and sensibilities. It is only in the most desperate of times - times of war and conflict that these outcasts are welcome or even invited to return.

Jephthah, the son of a harlot was despised by his people and dispelled from his tribe. Those who chose to join him were considered a band of worthless men, yet his story reminds us that the very ones who are unwanted and driven from among us are the ones we most need to lead in times of war. Barbarians can be counted as worthless when all is safe and secure but dangerous times suddenly make them invaluable. We live in such times and we are not ready for the great challenges that are set before us. We have not been prepared to take on any great quest, to battle any great enemy or even to pursue the great dream for which we have been born.

Instead, Christianity has become our Shawshank and our redemption will only come if we find the courage to escape the prison we have created for ourselves. Risking everything to live free is our only hope - humanities only hope. Jesus has been lost in a religion bearing His name. People are being lost because they cannot reconcile Jesus' association with Christianity. Christianity has become docile, domesticated, civilized. We have forgotten that there is a kingdom of darkness stealing the hopes, dreams and souls of a humanity without God. It is time to hear the barbarian call, to form a barbarian tribe, and to unleash the barbarian revolt. Let the invasion begin.

What is in a name?

2009-12-04T03:55:00.000-08:00

God speaks and we respond. Do you? Do you hear Him? He is speaking. Sit outside, open your eyes and really look. Ask Him, 'what are you saying to me'? He is definitely speaking.

He said to me, 'call up 10000 warriors' and I kept the word close to me for a few days. After sharing it and being sure of what God wanted from me, I spoke about it to those around me and then to more. Before I could give the project a name, it had taken on a life of it's own. Such was the excitement with the idea that people were already calling it ... 10000 warriors.

So we went with the flow. Since then I have wondered if we should have been more thoughtful. Did this best express the idea of rallying people to pray. To incite a Holy Spirit wave of 'crying out', so that we, together could take some ground in the name of our King. Hmmm Father, give me wisdom, love the name but want to KEEP YOUR NAME HOLY. It is my desire to bring you honour, help us to do this in every way. Not my will but yours be done. A warrior wonders?

Frankly ...

2009-11-17T20:53:00.000-08:00

Why don't people pray. Because it is boring ? ... yes sometimes. lonely? yes again. Don't know how? Yes I think that is true too.

People don't pray for a variety of reasons and we can sit in judgment of ourselves and them or we can inspire and facilitate prayer. God is asking us to pray. So here are some ideas; Pray the Lords prayer. Go to the letters in the New Testament and every time Paul prays, copy it and turn it into a personal prayer or a prayer for your Church. Ask a friend to pray with you weekly, fortnightly, go to a Church building that is open if it helps you or sit at home. Try walking and praying or just worship Him. DO NOT UNDERESTIMATE WORSHIP. Out of it comes a heart that beats with the heart of God and rarely struggles for inspiration to pray.

It is officially not funny anymore, we must pray and we must start immediately. Do not be put off. Experiment with ideas for praying. Then Pray. God help us.

Can you feel God's smile?

2009-11-08T23:29:00.000-08:00

If what you do for the Kingdom seems small, then Look up, because God is smiling, maybe even laughing with joy! If it is still a dream then start, do something. The seed thought begs to be planted and can not grow until it is. Zachariah wrote;

"Do not dare to despise these small beginnings, (if fact that is the only beginning you can have) ... because the Lord rejoices when the work begins, when the plumb line is in your hand" There is work to be done, praying, loving, giving and sowing your life into a future that glimmers with hope.

Believe in the thing that is in your heart. The steps of a good man are ordered by God ... THE STEPS. Walk it out, live loud and feel the smile of God as you go.

Troubled Times

2009-11-06T16:57:00.000-08:00

In this world you will have trouble ...Jesus spoke these words and went on to give a real life strategy for soul survival. How true it is, trouble all around. Global financial crises with a domino effect traveling at breakneck speed across every continent. Our kids need braces; the car needs new tyres and workplace gossip wounds even the strongest soul. Trouble happens!

Another time there was a soldier who was asking this God-Man for help, his daughter was very sick. His associates caught up with him and told him it was too late and not to trouble the teacher any more, she was already dead. this is a famous story from the Gospel but it resonates with truth for us to glean. We think, why bother, nothing can be done, our dream is dead, no-one cares, why trouble God or others with our issues.

Jesus' words are coming at you today. "Take heart, I have overcome ..." He offers us courage, by example and by insight. He knew what we must learn. God will not forsake us, if we call on Him, He will hear us. He hears you know. If you are alive you will experience trouble, but take it one day at a time. You only have the power to manage one day of trouble at a time. Whatever happens today is dynamically changed by how you approach and interact with it. So take heart, you will face it better if your burden is not wieghed down with yesterdays and tomorrows trouble. Yours for the journey, Julie

What Next ...

2009-11-05T22:57:00.000-08:00

So here we are, a couple of battles under our belt and I would think plenty to go. Jesus has won it all. We are indeed the victors. However we seem to have trespassers in our inheritance. It appears we must fight, or at least occupy our territory aggressively to maintain our Status as the Victors.

The great apostle Paul admonished us to take captive every thought and make it obedient to Christ, our Captain. So, this is a moment by moment occupation. We can not easily slip from our position in Christ but incrementally we can descend into a way of thinking that is not Kingdom oriented. If we do not address this, our old nature begins to assert itself and the voice of the accuser gets louder.

Therefore, lift up your eyes, strengthen your knees, laugh at the future and celebrate who Jesus is and the incredible power that His death and His resurrection delivered to us. With a constant praise for God in our mouth and the Sword of Truth in our hand, that's how we experience the Victory. The joy, contentment, the peace that passes understanding, then guards our mind and keeps our peace. If we are diligent and our thoughts are challenged and allowed in, only if they are congruent with truth, then we live daily in Victory..

As this applies to us individually, it also does to our Churches and our cities. We are stewards of the Kingdom reality. Jesus taught us to pray, Your Kingdom come and Your will be done. Pray it daily and persistently, don't worry, pray instead and the peace is guaranteed. Do not grow weary while you are at it and the reward is ours together. WOOO HOOO !!!!!!

What if?

2009-10-20T17:35:00.000-07:00

If you met Jesus at the park today, and He talked with you about the Kingdom, the future and His dreams for His Church, what would you do. If He went on to talk about the part that you play, laid His hands on you and you were then gloriously filled with the Holy Spirit, and you could feel His fire all over you. With this infilling a great calling came over you and Jesus began to speak over you, declaring your purpose and the mandate He has given to you, (all of us) to "GET OUT THERE INTO THE WORLD AND MAKE DISCIPLES, TEACH THEM TO OBEY ALL THAT I HAVE SHOWN YOU..."

What would you do? Please consider going to the park and meeting with Jesus, remember your calling and with fresh eyes and an unveiled mind, go and do all that He has inspired you to. If you have ever had a desire to go and do something for God ... Go now and do it soon! The Kingdom awaits your contribution.
Yours for Revival, Julie

Celebrate

2009-10-17T22:46:00.000-07:00

Well hello fellow soldiers. We have participated in another skirmish and stood with our mates in NSW for the advancement of the Kingdom.

In Blacktown, last weekend, a faint echo was heard that resounded across the heavens. It was just the beginning of birth pangs. Revival is our destiny and she will be born on the shoulders of those who pray.
Churhes will yet rise up and take their mandate to ..."make disciples" seriously enough that people will begin to walk in their destiny and see 30, 60, 100 fold increase. And to that day we look, it is even dawning on us NOW!

As I talk to people across the Body, I hear a new vigour, a fresh excitement indicative of a fresh wave of souls. Let your Kingdom come and your will be done, on earth as it is in Heaven.

I do believe in Jesus.

Zechariah

2009-10-14T00:47:00.000-07:00

DO NOT DESPISE THE DAY OF SMALL BEGINNINGS, THE LORD REJOICES WHEN THE WORK BEGINS, WHEN THE PLUMB LINE IS IN YOUR HAND.

Let the seed of your dream grow into all that God destines it to be. Let the water of the Word nourish it. Be blessed.

It is just the beginning of a time we will never forget!

The Beach Head

2009-10-11T16:41:00.000-07:00

A Beach Head is a dangerous operation. It usually has many casualties and takes great courage to participate in.
The stirring that is happening across the Body of Christ at the moment is a beach head for a new wave of prayer. For some, it is an invitation into the supernatural realm where 'working with God' on a daily basis is our new NORMAL. So if that is you, welcome, and don't forget to have fun in the new thing God is asking of you. This past Saturday, all over this great nation and in other parts of the Pacific Region there have been stirrings in both the natural and the supernatural.

Suzette Hattingh is a recognized voice in regards to Prayer and its impact on nations. Through much struggle in both the physical and the spiritual realm, she brought the Word of the Lord to us at an event in Blacktown, Sydney. She took the platform with some Australian statesmen and along with groups, large and small, we, together asked God for our nation as our inheritance. She confirmed to us that way more was going on than our physical eyes can see. God will be glorified in His Bride.

So Glory be to God and May His name be kept Holy. I am now asking God for strategies and ideas to manifest the things He has promised us. Many of us are poised for the next season and we should not hesitate. The moment the King catches your eye, RUN!
Yours for the Kingdom, Julie

5 Days to Go

2009-10-04T16:04:00.000-07:00

This Saturday is the 10th of the 10th. There will be 10000 Warriors lifting up a prayer for our Nation. Its a 'no brainer'. God is stirring up His people to pray. How will they, (WE), respond. My prayer is that we won't lose perspective. This life is a vapour, a breeze to be spent in honour of the King. It is His desire to see the whole earth come under His Lordship, His love.

It is my desire to please Him. Please join me this Saturday for 10 minutes, whenever and wherever you are and pray that His Spirit be poured out across our Nation. In our schools, our Churches, families and people groups.

Never tire of asking God to move. For God so loved the world that He gave His son, His life as a ransom for all who come to Him. Talk tomorrow

Forgiveness - thats the good news.

2009-10-03T21:36:00.000-07:00

What a beautiful Saviour we have. Hanging on the cross, he said, "Father forgive them, they don't know what they are doing".

Lord grant me grace to sow forgiveness. Weave it so tightly into my personality that it flows out as naturally as swimming to a duck. Lord I want to follow you, be like you. You are the example of life.

If the people of God would let stuff go, free their spirits of dusty old baggage, then we would be participating in the global purification of 'The Bride' and obeying the command in 2 Chron 7 v 14 ...

If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray, turn from their SIN, and seek my face, then I will hear from Heaven, forgive their sin ... and heal their land.

AMEN ... so let it be - soon.

Pedro Fernandez De Quiros

2009-10-02T22:48:00.000-07:00

Let the heavens, the earth, the waters with all their creatures, and those present witness that I Captain Pedro Fernandez de Quiros, in the name of Jesus Christ hoist this emblem of the Holy Cross on which His person was crucified and whereon He gave his life for the ransom and remedy of all the human race, on this day of Pentecost, 14th May.

I take possession of all this part of the south as far as the pole in the name of Jesus which from now on shall be called the Sothern Land of the Holy Ghost and this always and forever, and to the end that to all natives in all the said lands, the Holy and sacred evangel may be preached openly and zealously.

These were the words spoken over our nation and the Pacific Islands while we were not yet a nation. This declaration was in the name of Jesus and we stand together and agree that it shall be done on earth as it is in Heaven.

In honour of the King

2009-10-02T06:50:00.000-07:00

When we pray we co-work with the Holy Spirit. God is stirring up the warrior spirit within us to cry out, 'Come Lord Jesus'.

The call is for the people of God to turn away from entanglement in meaningless things, and to turn toward a life that pleases Him.

Revival is not about us, nor is it about 'them'. For God so loved the world that He gave His only Son, that whoever believes in Him would not die, but have eternal life. Revival is about Him. God wants to restore all things to Himself. So we GO, full of the Holy Spirit and invite people to become a part of this family. We are people who proclaim 'peace on earth' and declare that now is the time of the Lords favour. The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!

So pray with passion. This is what pleases Him. It's all about Jesus, it's all about Life!

Ten Days of Solidarity

2009-10-01T00:24:00.000-07:00

"Never doubt that a small group of committed people cannot change the world. In fact nothing else ever has!" Margaret Meade.

So do not grow weary while doing good, because if you do not lose heart, you will receive a reward. This is an important moment. Invite a couple of friends over on Saturday the 10th and read the prayer through together, it will take about Ten Minutes. Talk about Revival, Transformation, and what it might look like in your city. There are people everywhere believing with you that God is working on our behalf to bring all things under the Lordship of Jesus Christ. Do it with a song in your spirit. I remember one I used to sing as a child went something like this;

Oh how I love Jesus
Oh how I love Jesus
Oh how I love Jesus
Because He first loved me!

Yours for Revival ... Julie

You do not have many Fathers ...

2009-09-22T15:03:00.000-07:00

I have been looking into my family's spiritual heritage and discovering how dysfunctional the Body can become when we lose our Fathers. Not just our Fathers biologically, but our spiritual Fathers. Who are they and how do we recognize them?

God is Love. That would the place to start. A Fathers heart is motivated by love. This person may or may not be a leader but they are a 'lover'. They understand what Paul meant when he said, 'What comes on me daily is my deep concern for all the Churches'. The Fathers heart hopes all things. As they look at their sons and daughters they genuinely HOPE that the best case scenario will happen in all circumstances. Fathers are people of Faith. Of course they have faith, but to be a Father in the Pauline sense, one must forsake the praise of people including their spiritual 'children' and be fully persuaded that the path that God has chosen for us as His children is the only option to please Him.

How many times have you heard someone say, "I have no spiritual Father. I don't feel like anybody is interested in mentoring me". If this is you, then start to serve someone you admire. You could get hurt but God will use that too. Be compassionate towards the one you choose and love them. Commit for at least a year to honour them especially and learn what it is that created that admiration you have for them.

As well as that you could ask the Holy Spirit, who needs your influence and encouragement? You could GROW UP and choose someone or several and begin to love them, hope with them and live out your faith with them. Invite them into your home and do not hide from them. When Paul said 'imitate me', this included copy my brokenness, my repentance, my humility, my choice to go in the face of fear. We have much to learn and a very gracious Father in Heaven who began the work and will complete it until it is done. I want many sons and daughters who I can say to, 'copy me because I am trying my best to copy Jesus'.

What happened next ...

2009-09-19T19:30:00.000-07:00

The book of Acts is ... What happened next. Jesus came out of the tomb, spent a day here and there with His disciples, gave some very important instructions and then, left to take His place outside of time and to send our precious Friend, Holy Spirit.

WHAT HAPPENED NEXT is what happened next. The Acts of the Apostles. These are the same guys a few pages earlier who shared the Last Supper with Jesus. Now they are the caretakers of the Truth, as are we. These devastated and humble men and women then had to overcome their grief and look as Jesus did, at the needs of others. Jesus had recently wept because the people were so lost.

How long since you read the book of Acts. Do it today. This is a big clue into what the Church could look like. People who are full of the Holy Spirit, taking care of each other and providing for the needs of the ministry. Bold, organized, PRAYING, looking out for each other and declaring this Good News no matter the circumstances. Ship wrecks, prison, whatever is an opportunity to do what Jesus did and mingle with people downloading the goodness of God.

As I read I was looking for the Supernatural. I wondered as I read how I would respond to people if they told me some of these stories on the weekend.

...'an angel visited me ... I fell in a trance and had a vision ... I was in prison but the doors opened by themselves and I followed and angel down the street ...' This is what happened next. Lord we need a Revival!

Will you not pray with me ... one hour

2009-09-18T20:12:00.000-07:00

These words of Jesus to his disciples on the night of his betrayal are confronting. Have you ever heard him say these words to you. I hear them now. As I read through the '10 minute prayer' this morning I felt a very real sense of the Holy Spirit gaze at my soul, reminding me of the enormity of the responsibility he has bestowed on the Church.

This burden is one that I carry with joy and with reverence, often unworthily and yet I feel the smile of God on my life in a way that resonates of the Amazing Grace for which he is well known.

A survey was done on American University Campus' and they were asked; 'What is Jesus best known for?'' The answer of the majority was, 'he was the one who said, 'Love your enemies'. This is as it should be because the apostle Paul said, If I do this and that and pray and fast and be the VERY MOST SPIRITUAL Christian I can be and do not have LOVE, then I am NOTHING ... NOTHING!

Sobering isn't it, so as you pray, if you remember that someone has an offense against you, leave and love and come back knowing the devil has nothing on you. Keep on Asking, you will receive what you ask for.

I love Jesus, Julie

Now is the time to Worship

2009-09-17T00:32:00.000-07:00

In the valley of dry bones the angel begins to explain the vision in Ezekiel 37, and he says to the prophet; 'This is the whole house of Israel, (the church), they say our bones are dry ...all hope is gone, THEREFORE PROPHESY!

According to this scripture the antidote to dryness and hopelessness, is to Prophesy. When we sing and worship God, declare His Majesty and His promises coming into His presence we set ourselves up for the Spirit of God to move in us and on us to Prophesy.

Come on people ... Now is the time to worship, not with rules and regulations, not with sacrifices and offerings in an attempt to appease our God. Through Jesus Christ the veil was ripped, FROM TOP TO BOTTOM, so that we can come as His adopted children into His presence with the assurance that we accepted in the Beloved. Don't let anybody put a trip on you that there is still some requirement of the law to Please Him. Jesus was the requirement fulfilled totally. Follow Him.

Jesus said, now you can ask the Father anything, using my name and He will give it to you. I will not ask for you but you ask,using my name. Keep on Asking, everyday because God is your Father.

Lord we are asking for You to visit this land in Power. May every place of worship, that names your name as the King of Heaven and the Returning Son of God, experience a Dynamic encounter of our precious Holy Spirit that begins a work in the hearts of your people that is carried forward.
Let those who follow you hear the call to, Arise Shine, the Light has come, the Spirit has been poured out, now let Your Kingdom come! We are desperate for you. We refuse to live without Your Presence in our lives.

It is for freedom that Christ has set us free.

2009-09-14T05:37:00.000-07:00

WARRIORS - don't be like the 'foolish Galatians' who were born again in the Spirit but then started to work in the flesh to achieve their righteousness. The veil was torn, from top to bottom, by God Himself, so that we could be in His presence. We could not ... cannot achieve that. By Jesus Christ we have access to our Father. We are the children in this relationship and as such, make mistakes.

HEAR ME GOOD, It is by grace we have been saved and even this is not of ourselves, but a gift from Him. There are some and because of their own feelings of inadequacy will attempt to get you to work to get favour with God. Receive this word, Nothing can separate you from His love.

I don't fully understand the grace of God, but I do know this; from the Gospel of John, that Jesus was FULL of grace and FULL of truth.

We thank you Jesus, for your undeserved mercy poured out to us. It is your love that constrains me, motivates me and inspires me to follow you, allowing you to fulfill your promise to complete the work you began in me.

Yours for Revival. Julie

The enemy within.

2009-09-10T04:50:00.000-07:00

Good day, warriors. Today is Jemiah's birthday. She is 2. She is beautiful and she is free. She dances as if no one can see her. She sings like no one can hear her and she loves like some one who has never been hurt.

Jesus said, 'unless you become as a little child, you cannot enter the Kingdom of God' When we were 2 we found it easy to be as a little child and yet now we have become encumbered by all our sophisticated notions of being a grown up.

May be we should all try to grow down, become childlike. Forgive easily and move on. That is the quickest way to retard and remove the power of sin from our lives.

When we stand in our authority and pray for peace and freedom for our cities....we must ensure that the enemy is not within us, or the foothold could become a stronghold and destroy the work that God is doing in our lives.

Forgive us AS WE FORGIVE those who offend us. For yours is the Kingdom, the Power and the Glory, Forever!

Majesty

Majesty! As I came into God's presence this morning I felt that familiar smile forming across my face. As I enjoyed being with Him, I considered how amazing it is that to be here I had followed no protocol rules.

Yes, I was thankful and I had lifted my voice in praise because these are the ways to experience His presence for sure. However I had no fear that I might say the wrong thing or look silly to Him.

If I had an appointment with the Queen or the Prime Minister, it would be expected that I would behave a certain way and be sure not to mention certain things. Well ... not when I am sharing the time/space realm with my Father, Abba, Daddy. He is my Majestic King and yet I smile and sing like I should be able to with anyone who is so secure that they need no assurances from me. If I did not praise Him the rocks would so my Father in Heaven does not need me to confirm that He is above all. Majesty!

Hey... Today I read the Gospel of John and half of Mark. I am determined to build my 'house' on the teachings, (the words), of Jesus. He said 'if you remain in my and my words remain in you. I don't know if that comes easier to you than it does to me but I have to engage all my energy to remain in Him. And even though it is challenging to operate COUNTER CULTURALLY I will, by His grace give it my best shot.

What is the deal that we can call ourselves believers or followers of the most Radical person to EVER walk the planet and be ordinary...dead set mediocre. Come on people, if you have to be alive then you might as well Live! Can I put it out there, lets say for the duration of this prayer campaign which culminates on the 10th of the 10th, (32 days left) we read only the gospels, unless the Holy Spirit specifically directs you to something else of course. I am desperate to please my King...He is worthy of all honour and praise. Yours for Revival Julie - A Warrior with Dreams

Its all we have!

This (today Monday 7th September) is the day that the Lord (God who created the first day) has made, you might as well rejoice and be glad in it (now, while it is happening)

You have read this scripture so many times, now do it....REJOICE!

Today pray with passion, put it on if you have to. The apostle Paul said, 'put off the old man and put on Christ' Jesus was a man of passion, he was constantly moved with compassion. If passion, feeling and conviction was your Christ-likeness guage, pay attention. Get passionate, Rejoice, pray with conviction. This is not a dress rehearsal...truthfully Today is all you have!

Welcome Family - especially Dads

Welcome 10000warrior family. I have so been looking forward to keeping you up to date with all that God is doing through our prayers and celebrating the twists and turns of our journey together.

Today is Father's Day so I would like to honour the men of God who have embarked on this pilgrimage of prayer, who, by their faith, are creating a better future for our nation, our cities and our children. It is no small thing for a man to challenge the status quo and offer up fervent prayer.

I think it is worth my while here to say up front what we, at 10000warriors (10w) use as a working definition of the term 'Revival'. It is less of a mysterious cloudy type of floating, hope it comes this way, idea, as it is the Church standing up in her potential and reflecting the Glory of God. It is the people of God, side by side, establishing His Kingdom in time and space.

I have been blessed by so many of you, but let me share this good news story.

One man told me a detailed vision of a large black mosquito net that was draped over a city. The peoples prayers were being caught in the veil and were not penetrating through it. As he began to pray with the knowledge that many others were joining the taskforce, there appeared a brilliant metal cutting implement on one of the edges of the veil. Then in the vision a nick was made on the edge and with momentum it weakened the side and began to split the entire dark covering and releasing the prayers en masse through to the heavens.

The conditions are ripening for the Church to Rise Up...to stand together and begin to walk and then run in her destiny. So here's to the journey...why don't you grab a friend and tell them to get on board. I fully believe that God is leading us forward and that if we remain in Him and pure in heart, we can do this. We can co-work as the Body of Christ and with the Holy Spirit, lay down any agendas we have where they do not honour the calling of God. Trust Him, He loves you.

Lord I sign off now with a prayer...May your name be kept holy. Your devoted daughter Julie
