Prophecy from David Campbell

David Campbell 10/29/17

When I was praying about coming here, I got two words. Actually if you were at the conference, I had three words. The first was yabba dabba do, but I’m not going to speak about that. There’s another word that came to me when I was praying.  I just felt two words and it was for Grace Center here. And the words were multiple services.

Now you’re going to think that’s pretty obvious because there’s multiple services, but often God sort of does things and gives you things that twist around to mean something else. And obviously I know we’re in multiple services because I know I’m going to repeat this sermon in a minute with the same spontaneous asides and everything. Everything’s exactly the same, you wait and see. So it does mean that but those multiple services are the multiple entry points into the church. And that’s the way you come in. 

But I felt God was saying this is a season where as a church you’re going to have multiple services, ways out of the church. That are going to go out. You’re going to service the community. You’re going to service the people who are outside and you’re going to service the body of Christ. This is the season of multiple servicing, multiple reaching out. And there’s lots we’ll unpack, Jeff, a little bit, but I believe you are going to see ministries relocate just to come here, just to come to this church. People will just say, they won’t be here much but they’ll be part of here because multiple services is part of your destiny and the purpose. Cause that’s the season you’re coming to. 

You’re what we call an Antioch church. That’s why I’m talking about Antioch. An Antioch church has very little to do with geography. It’s to do with the people. People make an Antioch church, not geography. It’s called the Antioch church because it’s Antioch, but when we talk about an Antioch church, we’re not saying if you have the same geography, we’re saying if you have the same people. People are what make a church. I’m going to talk to you a little bit about that and give you some marks of an Antioch church. And this is a good thing so don’t be afraid…. 

Let me tell you, Grace Center, you’re something else. We don’t fit in the box because our Father made the box and took us out. Why don’t you say to the person next to you – You’re something else. You’re something else…

I just want to say to you – One of the things you know when you’re an Antioch church is the quality of the people you send out. If you’re a good house, you will grow good ministries. And they’ll grow strong but they can’t stay here. Some of them are going to be part of your multiple services. You’ll send them out right across the body of Christ. You’ll send them out because we give away our best. And I believe you are called to be an Antioch church. A church which has an influence greater than its geographical location.

But Antioch churches are made up of Antioch people. And just by saying we’re an Antioch church doesn’t make any difference whatsoever. You can change what’s on the door of your office but if you don’t change the person in the office, nothing changes. And God says I want you to be growed up because your personal destiny is linked to the destiny of this church….

I’d like to pray over you right now…that you might become Antioch citizens. You might become people who change this area. Folks are going to move in here just to be with you. And you’ll think “What are you doing here?” They won’t be sure why they’re here, but you can almost smile in nice “I know” sort of way of thinking. “I know.” Because this city is being made big enough for people to come and shelter here. You’re not sure why you’re here, but this is a safe place for you. You’re gonna have your headquarters here, but may never see you. But you’re allowed to be here. 

Because Antioch…the vision of this church is full of big people with a vision bigger than just ourselves. We have a vision big enough for our city, big enough for our state, and big enough for the whole nation and into the nations. That’s the big people that God’s calling us to be.  

Let’s stand up. We’ll pray.

So Father I thank you for the privilege of being back at Grace Center with these Antioch people. And I thank you Lord that You are building bigger people.  You’re building big people in order to build a big church. And I pray for every person here to be released into the fullness of destiny…to become all that You’ve created us to be and You’ve recreated us to become. That we might become those possessing people who are filled with the Holy Spirit.

And I pray over this church that You would release multiple services. Not just people coming in at different times, but people going out at all times. And many ministries will be birthed from here. And others will find their home here. But this will be a church that has a people of a vision bigger than themselves. That we might be kingdom minded, that we might see the kingdom of God come, I pray in Jesus’ mighty name. Amen. 

Prophecy from Kayle Mumby

Kayle Mumby 05/21/2017 2nd Service

There’s a Scripture I wanted to give you guys. It’s Galatians 6:9 - “Let us not lose heart in doing good for in due time we will reap if we do not grow weary.” And what I was feeling for you guys while I was praying for you this morning was that the season of reaping is upon you. The season of reaping is upon you…The season of harvest is upon you. I really believe that. But I believe that there’s a certain space of getting to that harvest season. 

So what I believe is that right in that season, I want to encourage you guys as a church family do not grow weary in doing good. Do not grow weary in doing good. Do not grow weary with the thing that is in front of you. Do not grow weary in serving your church family. Do not grow weary in serving who you are. Do not grow weary in the destiny that’s on your life because I feel for this church, you are on the edge of one of the most remarkable seasons of harvest that you’ll ever see. Not only will it mean church growth and eeehhh that’s like a scary thing to hear oftentimes, trust me. Not only will it mean that but it’s going to be evident in many many different facets of who you are.

I believe that you guys praying for the businesses this morning was very very significant. That’s going to happen. You will receive growth in that. You will receive growth in your ministries. You will receive growth in your destinies.  You will receive growth even in health, but don’t stop. Don’t stop. Don’t stop. 

I feel like the picture that I’m going to prophesy into you right now is the picture of a train. And I feel like for this, and just go with me on this one, a lot of tension is required in order for a train to go down the tracks. And I believe that’s kind of the place you’re landing yourself is the place of tension. And depending on how you interpret the feeling of tension is where you’re going to go with that. For an old steam locomotive to go down the tracks, they’d fill that steam locomotive, they’d fill it full of coal, they’d set the fire then they’d clamp the brakes on…but they’d build the tension. That was the only way that the train would be able to move down the tracks, was if there was the required amount of tension. If they just stoked the steam engine, set a crazy fire and then flipped the brakes already, the wheels would just spin. It would not move. There would not be enough tension in order to get this whole thing down the tracks. But it stopped. Even though it was static, even though it wasn’t moving, there was a huge amount of energy being put into this thing and I feel like for you guys this is where you are right now. And it doesn’t mean that you’re not moving and don’t even feel that. Some of you might be feeling this place of tension - What’s going on? How are we supposed to get there? Should we continue doing the structure that is set before us? Do we do the religious protocol? Do we do all of this stuff? And yes - absolutely you do. You do. You do that until, you do whatever it takes until. That’s a phrase that we have in Canada in the church. We’re doing whatever it take until we receive the fullness of the glory of God in our nation. And so we understand that, a lot of us understand that when we look at each other - whatever until, whatever until, whatever until.

I feel like you guys are in that spot in Galatians 6:9 - Do not grow weary in doing good. Even when it doesn’t feel good. Even when you’re faced with confusion. Even when you’re faced with this feels like a lot of tension. You can either get pushed back by the tension or you can through yourself onto the fire even more. You can load yourself into more prayer, into more worship, into more hope, doing the exact opposite thing than you should because it feels like you’re not moving forward. 

But I’m here to tell you, I’m here to prophesy to you that you’re about to move forward. I feel with all of my heart this morning that the brakes are about to be flipped. You guys haven’t even begun to move and look at where you’re at right now. Watch what happens when the movement starts. The longer the…the bigger the train is, the bigger the weight is, the longer or the more tension has to be created. So celebrate the place of tension. Celebrate the place of tension. You can even go into a theological study of this stuff and wherever there was a place of tension in the Bible that’s where the Kingdom of God was going to be established. So there’s even that. If you don’t believe me, just read this thing [holds up his Bible]. I always tell people start in Genesis, go to Revelation. You’ll find so much more that will confirm what I’m telling you. 

But enjoy the place of tension. Choose to be self controlled. That’s one of the fruits of the Holy Spirit. Be self-controlled and don’t let yourself get bashed down by fear or insecurity or all that stuff. I win on that one out of all you, getting bashed down by fear and insecurity. And I’m trying my best to turn myself from that place and to enjoy the place of tension. To find comfort in the place of tension. Cause I know if I do not grow weary in what I know I’m supposed to do, the breakthrough will happen. And it will hasten the day, the more I throw myself onto the fire. Does this make sense to you guys?…

So another part I was feeling with this stuff is those who remain open to things almost never see them. There’s a whiplash for you. Those who remain open to things almost never see them. You have to earnestly desire them. I wanna add this onto the fire. It doesn’t matter to me if you know that doorway over there is open. I hear that all the time - Oh the doors of the Kingdom are open. That’s great. What are you going to do about it? You have to earnestly desire, you have to earnestly seek after. You can find that somewhere in 1 Corinthians. You just read the whole thing. I’m not going to give you the whole deal. Start in chapter 1 and go your way there. 

But it says we earnestly desire the spiritual gifts. We have to go after it. We have to go after it and I feel like to add fire into the place of tension - How are we going to discipline ourselves to pursue and to go through the open door that you know is there. 

I feel like the Lord has been releasing a ton of prophecy to this house and now it’s your responsibility, it’s your job - how do we structure movement to get through the open doors the prophetic voices have been speaking? If you just remain open to it, that’s all you’re going to get. That’s a bummer. It’s a bummer because it requires something from us. The way I frame that for myself is a whole lot more sick people would get healed if we just prayed for them. A whole lot more dead people would be raised if we prayed for them. I really do believe this…

I don’t care if a door is open. I really do not care if you know a door is open. What I care about is what are you going to do to get through that. And I feel like for you guys…my gosh I wish you could see what I see right now. There’s so much that is here for you. There’s so much potential. There’s so much of this. And I feel like what the Lord is going to start training you guys in is the pursuit of. Not just the pursuit of, that’s a different way to say it. Of the possession of the promise that you know is there for you. 

And to me in the prophetic realm, this is what I’ve been working at a lot, is I don’t want to get my religious gratification based on the fact I can prophesy something. That’s an element of it. I want to get my “religious gratification” based on the possession of the promise that I just saw. That’s where I will stop. I will not stop until I see the possession, until I can feel it in my hands that which we prophesy over. Cause to me gone are the days the prophets would gather around just to hear themselves speak. I don’t have time for that any more. What I want to see is what do we see, how do we get there? How do we build the tension? How do we create a fire? How do we create a structure to capture that tension, to capture the fire in order for this train to go rocketing down the tracks and we can actually go and ransom a generation. 

That’s what I want to go after. I want to look a higher place. And I feel like in your church you have a definite grace to be able to do this. Grace. Huh you’re Grace Center. 

I feel like the Lord’s going to start giving brand new strategy and that’s something I actually want to prophesy into. I feel like for so much, and I’ve been feeling this since I came into the Nashville area, that whole phrase of hope deferred makes the heart sick. And I feel like for you guys that will not be said of you. It will not be said of you. That will not be a place over Grace Center and for those who find yourselves in this family, hope deferred will be like a - I don’t even know how to say it - People will look at you and say what does that mean? You’ll have healthy hearts. You know, hope deferred makes the heart sick but a longing fulfilled is the tree of life. And I feel like what we are going see here is just so many amazing trees and all of these destinies that you hold in your heart. You’re going to see it established and planted. And it says so in my scripture - you will be a planting of the Lord for the display of His splendor.  You know, like it’s just amazing what the Lord is going to grow up. You’ll be oaks of righteousness. And this is what the Lord is raising up in this place. 

But in order for us to walk out of that hope deferred place we need to have the structure and the know how and the ability to do it. I don’t know what that is for you, but I would submit to you that it is something worthy and worthwhile to start praying into. Not just as a corporate church family, but also for yourself personally. How do we do this? What is the A B C D? How do we create a structure to possess the promise? 

You guys know this stuff. In my prophetic training it doesn’t matter if I walk in here and prophesy over somebody that you’re going to be a movie star or something like that. You can go into your room and say Oh that’s the word of the Lord. I’m going to be a movie star. Woohoo! That’s great!  You’re never going to be a movie star and I’m not the false prophet. If you don’t do anything with the potential that’s on your life, you’ll never reach that place. All the prophetic does is show you the potential and I feel like there is massive potential over every single person here. 

I feel like, and don’t get me wrong on this - I feel a little weird sharing this, but I actually do feel like you can get the music industry based on this church. And I know people come in here all the time and probably say that because it’s Nashville and it’s the easy thing to prophesy, but I actually feel it. Some of you like that. I’ll go take it if you don’t want to. I have fun doing this, you know?

But I feel like there’s stuff here and you’ve been beaten down over and over and over again saying I thought I had a career, I thought I had the talent, I thought I had this and the Lord says Yeah, you sure do. Let’s go back into that place of beating down the whole thing of hope deferred. How do we get the structure? It doesn’t matter if the door’s open, how are we going to get through that together as a family?

Because you’re called to be fishers of men. You’re called to be fishers of men. You’re called to go and ransom a society and I feel like this is the thing that the Lord has really really been dealing with me about is if you’re not catching fish, you have to change your lure. It’s not the fish’s fault if they’re not biting what you’re offering them. You have to go in there and give them something that they want. Give them something they desire. If it’s not working, it’s not right. We have to go back. Do not grow weary in doing good. Get back into your fishing boat, make another lure, throw it into the water and see if it works this next time. And I promise you this - I feel like we are on the edge of coming into some of the greatest fulfillments of the promises that have been over your life. And again, not just as a corporate church but also individually. But God never does anything by Himself so stay coming to church….

Grace Center, try your best. Grace Center, enjoy the season of tension. Be self-controlled. Control your mind, control your emotions in the place of tension and say we will celebrate this. Find the place that makes it even more intense. Find the place of worship. Find the place of prayer. Find out how to burn even though it feels like you’re not going anywhere. We’re going to say goodbye to hope deferred knowing this is what’s going to release us into our destiny. Find the doorway, figure out where am I going to point? Where is my destiny? And go through it. Be satisfied with going through the doorway, not just with knowing where it is. Do not grow weary in doing good, for in due time you’ll receive your harvest. 

Grace Center, your harvest is upon you. Your harvest is upon you. Long gone will be the days of the heart sick days. Those are going to be gone. I cannot wait to come back and hear all the testimonies. I feel like even from this morning we’re going to hear testimonies of producers, of musicians, of craftsmen and like welders, I don’t know why I just heard that, of artisans of all this kind of, teachers, of mothers, of fathers of all of this stuff. It is going to be established. It is going to be established. It is going to be established. There will be a planting for the display of the Lord’s splendor and it’s going to come from this place…

I speak over you again. Beautiful Grace Center, the season of hope is upon you. Hope will overtake you. In the end, these three things remain - faith, hope and love. And longing fulfilled is the tree of life. So I release to you, fulfilled hope, fulfilled desires. Lord that You would open up those doors and give us the strategies to walk through them. And if we don’t know what to do , we would fulfill our first and our deepest calling, to love you. Grace Center, may the Lord bless you. May the Lord keep you. May the Lord cause His face to shine upon you and be gracious to you all the days of your life. I say it again over you my family. May the Lord bless you. May the Lord keep you. May the Lord cause His face to shine upon you and be gracious to you, both now and forevermore. Amen. 

Prophecy from Kayle Mumby

Kayle Mumby 05/21/2017 1st Service

The Scripture that I felt for you this morning was Galatians 6:9, which is a good one. You can turn there if you want or you can just write it down cause it’s not a very long one. And you’ve all heard it a million times before. But in Galatians 6:9 it says “Let us not lose heart in doing good, for in due time we will reap if we do not grow weary.” 

So I just feel that so heavily for you guys. You know, let us not grow weary in doing good. Let us not grow weary in doing good. For in due time we will reap…oh I’m saying this wrong. Let us not lose heart in doing good, for in due time we will reap if we do not grow weary. And I feel like for you guys, I was just feeling in the Spirit that the due time is coming up for you. I feel like there’s going to be a remarkable harvest that comes for Grace Center. And I feel like in some ways, I don’t know if its true, but I feel like in some ways there’s been a lot of effort, a lot of do we keep doing this, a lot of plowing the ground, a lot of Oh this is getting tiring, Oh is the promise ever going to come. And I don’t know if that’s true. I’m just tossing that out for you but I feel like I need to announce to you the promise is coming. And it’s coming quickly. 

How I want to share this with you is just some stories from my life. I feel like when a prophetic guy comes in and they start throwing all these crazy stories like I was doing this weekend, sometimes it can be a little intimidating or it can be a little disheartening I find for a local church. Like what the heck are we supposed to do with all of this, you know? Great that you have all these crazy stories. Great that you’re prophesying in government leaders and all of that, and then we sit back and we come back to the routine which is not a bad thing, the routine of local church. But there’s nothing wrong with that. And I just wanted to encourage you guys - Do not grow weary in doing good. 

And the other Scripture that I wanted to give to you guys on top of this is the Parable of the Talents…I love the Parable of the Talents and it’s talking about the picture of Jesus giving His gifts essentially. Jesus giving us abilities. You guys know the Parable of the Talents right? I want to make sure.

For that one it’s…some people got 5 talents, some people got 3, some people got 2 or 1, whatever the deal is. And what I wanted to encourage you guys with is it doesn’t matter how big your talent is, what matters is what are you going to do with it. Cause I love in the Parable of the Talents it says that the master, he only gave away according to each person’s ability. And I feel like a lot of times in church, especially after conferences and stuff like that, sometimes you’ll see somebody come in who has a “5 talent gifting” and we go back and say I’ve only got one. What am I supposed to do with this? And it doesn’t matter if you have 5 or 3 or 1. It does not matter. It doesn’t matter. It doesn’t matter. God gives according to your ability. And if your ability is to operate out of a one talent gifting that’s amazing because there’s this other Scripture we can add on top of that is Those who are faithful with the little will be given more. We all got to start somewhere. And if you start trying to dive into Okay I have the ability for a one talent gifting and you dive into a 5 talent gifting you’ll be over your head way too far. And that’s when we get discouraged. That’s when we get the heart sick stuff. That’s when we get all confused.

And I just felt like for this local church context I just want to encourage you guys - Do not grow weary in doing good. According to the skill that is in front of you. According to whatever the Lord has given you. It doesn’t matter. It doesn’t matter. Do not compare. Don’t compare with anybody else. Don’t compare with me. Don’t compare with whatever. See what the Lord has given you and do your best. Just do your best. This make sense? Do your best. 

Prophecy from Gary Morgan

Gary Morgan 05/14/2017 2nd Service

God is bringing us into an understanding. Where the very environment that He’s calling us into is not there for us just to have a good time, there’s a purpose. And so I feel in this season, Grace Center, I really feel every person who can hear me - in house and online right now. The season you’re in right now, God is taking you into is not just so that you can have a good time, but there’s a purpose. God is marrying purpose with His presence in this season. And the danger comes when we find the purpose but we lose the presence or we find the presence but we lose the purpose. 

There’s a tension the Lord is requiring of us in this season is to have the purpose and the presence. It’s to realize there’s a Who and there’s a why. See, you realize you lose your way when you lose your why. But when you find your way, you find your Who as well. There’s a purpose in His presence and there’s a presence in His purpose. And a lot of times we can get so distracted by what the Lord is really wanting to do in us and through us that we forget what God is doing in a bigger picture. And all these things come up in our lives, of wondering “God what are You saying? What are You doing?” And a lot of times we get anxious. We get in this place of “God I’m not sure what this next season is. Lord I’m not sure where I am or where I’m going.”  Can I suggest to us today - I love this verse Psalm 119:105 - ‘Your Word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.” When you have the word, both rhema and logos, and this is something I really feel the Lord is upgrading in our lives right now - is that we don’t just become a people of rhema, but we become a people of logos as well. That it’s not just the spoken but it’s the written.  And when you have that in your life according to Psalms is you don’t just have a light, you have a lamp. It doesn’t just reveal where you are, it reveals where you’re going. 

And I want to tell you - the next prophetic conference, the next prophet coming along isn’t necessarily going to reveal to you where you are and where you’re going, but that’s something for you to embrace through the Word itself. You see, prophecy is confirmation, not always revelation. Yeah? And so when you feel in this place of anxiety, when you feel in this place of not sure where I am or where I’m going, guys the best place you can go is the Word of God. 

And I want to encourage you right now. I didn’t do this in the first service, but I’m gonna do it in this one. I feel the Lord wants to bring us right now into stewardship. What God is laying on this house right now is not leadership, He’s laying stewardship upon this house. And the place of stewardship is this, you see, leaders manage, but stewards multiply. And many of us are looking for leadership qualities. I want to talk right now about stewardship qualities. 

You see, a lot of us want to lead in our future. Many of us want to lead in our lives, but I feel the Lord wants to steward, bring stewardship in our lives. And this is what it looks like to steward your prophetic words. This is what it looks like to allow the words that are on your life to start working for you, not against you. You see, last year, this is what I said coming into 2017. I said “Lord, I’m done. I don’t want another prophetic word. If I get in another meeting” - and this is rare - do you realize prophets don’t get prophetic words? I’ve been in meetings with major prophets and they’re like “sir, right there” And I’m sitting right here [waves his hand] “What about me? I’m in the meeting.” And they’re like “Sir, 3 rows back.” And I’m like “Ah, I missed it again.” But I realized. I said this to the Lord, “I don’t want another prophetic word because I want to see the fulfillment of the ones I’ve already received. I don’t want another prophetic word.” But you know, one of the things I was treating the prophetic word as, I was treating the prophetic word as something God was going to do instead of having the revelation of what He’s already done. 

I was treating the word as something that I can be instead of realizing it’s actually someone I am. And how many of us are treating our prophetic words as something that’s coming instead of something that is? How many of us are treating our prophetic words as something that’s predicting instead of actually something that’s powerful in the moment. You see, you are the fulfillment of your prophetic word. You showing up is the fulfillment of your prophetic word. Now it unfolds. And this is what happens, we get frustrated. And so I decided in stewarding my prophetic words, this is what I did. I got all my prophetic words and I laid them out, and I realized  that I had grouped my prophetic words, I had laid them out chronologically. And I feel like this is something the Lord wants to do in this house. What I did is I took the prophetic words and I laid them out chronologically. You know, in 1997 I got this word, in 1998 I got this word, and I laid them all out chronologically and I got depressed because all of a sudden, you read in 2002 the Lord said this over my life and nothing’s come to pass. How many people have been there? How many people have got words from 1978? Guy at the back there - bless you my friend. And we get depressed why? And this is what happens with prophetic words. We date prophetic words and we take something that is spoken in a kairos moment and we box it in a chronos environment.  Therefore the word now has age instead of being ageless. And we take something that God spoke in eternity and we bring it into a temporary environment. The other thing we do is because it’s chronological, we read the first word and it could be talking about expansion and then we read the next word and it’s talking about restriction. How many people have conflicting words on their life? “I’m going to send you to nations.” The next prophetic word, “The Lord’s really rooting you at home.” What? And you know, this is what I decided to do because Scripture says where 2 or 3 agree, it shall be established. I wasn’t seeing my prophetic words being established. So what I did, I took the dates off and then I started to look for a theme. Because in God’s dream for you, there’s a theme for you. In God’s dream for you, there’s a theme for you. And I began to look through all God’s dreams for me - cause that’s what  prophetic words are - God’s dream for you. And I began to look all through the dreams and this is what I began to look for. I began to look for themes. And I began to group them themes together so that when I read my prophetic words, the first word I read agreed with the 2nd word. Guess what? Establishment took place. 

And I feel like there’s people here right now God is wanting you to begin to steward your destiny. God is wanting you to begin to steward your prophetic words because most of us are living in chronos reality with a kairos hope. And God wants to bust us out of this restrictive thinking. God wants us to be ageless because He is ageless. Therefore if I am a man outside of time, I’m not restricted by it. 

There’s two things that are going to control you in life - one is time and the other is finance. When you become subjected to time and money, they manage you. You see, God wants to bring us into stewardship. And when I become a steward of my time and finance, I can tell my time and money where to go instead of wondering where it went. I’m going to try this side. 

When I become a steward of my time and finance, I can tell it where to go instead of wondering where it went. Wow, we’ve got some pentecostals in the house. And so God wants us to be stewards. He doesn’t want us to be managers. 

You see there is a talent the Lord is releasing on this house. God is taking you from being a silo. I believe the Lord is releasing a university in this place. And it is the university of knowing what to do with talents and not just seed. I’m telling you, in the next 12 months there will be millionaires and billionaires coming to this place. And this is why. Because this is a field of dreams. And I love the movie the Field of Dreams.  James Earl Jones. And this is what he says to Kevin Costner - “They’re coming Ray, they’re coming.” Money they have, but peace they lack. Money they have, but peace they lack. Peace isn’t an environment for us to have a good night’s sleep. Peace is shalom. Nothing missing, nothing required. And this is a house of shalom. And God’s taking you from being a seed house to being a talent house.  Hear my words. And God’s going to give you strategy. God’s going to give you understanding of what it is to see talents multiplied and not just seed managed. I tell you guys - hear my heart. I didn’t expect to go down this route. This is what the Lord is speaking right now - is He’s bringing you into a place where you’re going to see transactions happen in and through people because the commodity isn’t of the world. The commodity is of His. And when you begin to realize that the commodity has nothing to do with this [hands waving] but everything do with this [points to heart], nations get changed. Because you can’t establish with your hearts what has first not been established in your heart. And many people are trying to do things when God wants us to be. 

What does it look like for us to begin to train and equip people in talent, not just seed? Hear my heart. There will be people of seed here, but I’m telling you God in this next season is upgrading this house to a place of talent. And I love the parable of the talents. And the reason I love the parable of the talents is this - we see three examples. We see multiplication with two, but what did the third guy do? What did he do with his talent? He buried it. I would read that a lot and you know scholars have said you know he buried it because he was afraid. Can I suggest to us today? There’s something else you bury when you don’t have understanding. Where does the seed belong? Can I take liberty and suggest to us that the guy treated his talent as seed and put it in the ground expecting it to multiply? You see, your seed doesn’t multiply because you plant it. Your seed multiplies because of the environment. Because of the place, because of the intent. And what comes from that seed is the multiplication of your seed, it’s not your seed in the first place. And I fear that there’s people in this house listening to my voice right now that you are not seed people, you’re talent people. And you’re frustrated because you’ve been treating your seed like talent and nothing’s happening. And some of you in this place are talent people but you’ve been treating it like seed. And this is what the Lord’s doing is He wants to bring multiplication on your life but He wants to give understanding. You see, what understanding does, understanding allow us to stand under what God is doing. A lot of us want faith, but with faith, you have to have understanding.  A lot of us want wisdom but with wisdom has to come understanding. Yeah?

And so the beautiful thing is the invitation God is bringing us into is actually for increase, is actually that we begin to step into multiplication. What does it look like that your assignment is not to be seen? What if your assignment is not to have a platform but to have a purpose? I’m flying on a plane, coming to the US and…I don’t care about my reputation. So I watched this film called Assassin’s Creed. Anybody seen it? There’s two honest people here…. And this is the line. I watched the whole thing and was oh yeah, until this person said this word - We work in the dark to serve the light. We work in the dark to serve the light. I want to tell you right now, there’s people in this building. There’s people in the sound of my voice that God is going to have you work in what you think are the shadows but it is the shadow of the Almighty. There’s people in this place right now that you’ll never have a platform but you’ll have purpose that changes nations. People in this place, you won’t have a voice, but you’ll have people’s ears. Hear my heart. You’ll feel like you haven’t got a voice, but you’ll have people’s ears. 

And this is what the Lord’s doing right now in this house. There’s an assignment in this house that is going beyond impact. It’s actually influence. And you have to understand. God raises houses for impact, but he also raises houses for influence. He raised people for impact and He raises people for influence. The question I have for you today church is do you want impact or do you want influence? You see, impact is a moment. Influence is a movement. And the question is do you want a moment or do you want a movement? Yeah? And so this is where the Lord is inviting us into is that we will go on assignments. And this is what I learned from Graham Cooke. Graham Cooke said to me “Gary, I don’t do meetings. I do assignments.” And this is the beautiful thing. I don’t believe this is a house of meeting. I believe this is a house of assignment. And some of you are going to get frustrated because you’re like “Oh we need the impact.” You see, a river doesn’t make its way because of its power. It makes its way because of its persistence. A river doesn’t forge a way because of its power. It forges a way because of its persistence. And I’ll tell you what is going to be your undergirding is persistency and consistency in this house. It’s not always about this [arms open wide], sometimes it’s about this [arms close]

We have this advert in Australia. It’s one of the hospital things. And everyone does this [cups hands w/ a few inches in between]. And this is what it says - from little things, big things grow. You see, some of us want to swing from the oak tree, but God’s actually inviting us to plant the acorn. And what does it look like to plant? You see this is what legacy is, what inheritance is, what wisdom is. Sometimes God asks you to plant the seed so that a tree will grow whose shade you might never sit under. But your children will. Yeah?

And this is the beautiful place. But God is asking us to almost get over ourselves and to embrace the assignment of what He’s got for this house. And the assignment that’s on this house I don’t believe is just for city transformation. I believe what’s on this house is going to shake nations. But it’s going to come from a place of assignment. Taking off and landing. I’ll tell you, there’s people here, I’m prophesying this, there’s people in this room right now in the sound of my voice God’s going to take you on assignments that literally will take you past and beyond passport control. Someone in this room right now, I’m prophesying, you’re going to go on assignments that people will not know that you’ve entered a country and left a country. I’m talking like James Bond….No it doesn’t mean you get an Aston Martin. 

But God’s doing something in the earth that requires those who know who they are and whose they are to arise. You see, I love Joel and this is what it says in Joel. In the last days I will pour out My Spirit on all flesh.  And it says your sons and your daughters shall prophesy. Your old men shall dream dreams. Your young men shall have visions.  If you’re having both, you’re in a mid-life crisis. But this is what I couldn’t understand. It says in the last days, I’ll pour out My Spirit on all flesh. That means everyone, yeah? All flesh. That means the person you don’t like who lives next to you. That means your mother in law. That means your boss. All flesh. That means Baptists, Catholics, atheists, jihadists. God’s going to pour out His Spirit on all flesh. But then it says your sons and your daughters will prophesy. You see, God’s going to pour out His Spirit on all flesh, but what activates the power of the Spirit is sonship. God pours His Spirit out on everyone, but what activates it is sonship. What activates it is knowing that you’re a son and a daughter. Because there is the pouring out of the Spirit, but the manifestation of the Spirit comes through sonship. That’s why I know. Cause the Bible says He rains on the righteous and the unrighteous together. But what activates it is you know who you are and Whose you are. Sonship. And this is the assignment He has. But a lot of times we get into this place of “God I know what You’re doing.” But I don’t. “God I wish you’d give me some more prophetic words.” Friend, God doesn’t want us to collect prophetic words. He wants us to steward the ones we have. 

How do we steward? How do we be stewards of what God has given us. You see Paul says in the word that we are stewards of the mystery. This is what the Lord is releasing. He’s releasing gatekeepers. That we stand at the gates of the natural and the supernatural. That we stand at the gates of heaven and earth. And we become stewards of mysteries. We become stewards of the secret place. We become stewards. Not to guard, but to multiply. And we get to invite people into encounters that they’ve never had. You see guys, you’re an encounter waiting to happen. I say to our church - Guys stop trying to bring people to a meeting and be the meeting. Stop trying to tell people a story and make them the story. You see, this is what I love about prophetic ministry. People will forget what you said but they’ll never forgot how you made them feel.  And this is what the Lord’s doing in us stewarding these mysteries. We have the ability to not just see the gifts manifest but the fruit as well. And that’s how you mark the word. That’s how you mark what He’s doing in these last days.  Where the fruit manifests, the gifts manifest. And where the gifts manifest, the fruit manifests. But friend, I don’t want us to be locked in to a place where we’ve already worked God out and this is how He’s going to do. Because I want to tell you right now, it ain’t going to be as you think. 

This is what the prophet said - Surely God is in this place and I did not know it. And that’s where the Lord wants us not just to have a knowledge of He can, but to have an encounter that He is. See we all know God can move. But the knowledge doesn’t do anything. It’s the encounter that does. And what does it look like for us not just to be a knowing of information but a knowing of transformation? When Paul said that I may know him, knowing wasn’t a knowledge. Knowing was an experience. Experience. That we experience that He is present. That we experience that  He’s good. That we experience that He’s kind. Yeah?

And so I want us to just look at this for a moment. Wow. Your greatest assignment is locked within your greatest anxiety. We’re all afraid of something. But either fear will disable you or it will draw you to a greater purpose in Him. And for too long fear has disabled us instead of drawing us closer to the Father.  You know, my son loves watching Paw Patrol and all these things. And if all of a sudden a baddie comes up in it, he doesn’t just stand there and cry. He runs to me. And he brings me before the tv and he’s holding my hand. And I’m like Dude, you’re crazy. This has like caused you fear. But you’re no longer afraid when Father’s present. Can I suggest to us today most of us are afraid of our future because we don’t know Father’s present. 

Years ago the Lord blessed us with a house in Idaho and some of you have heard the story of how God did that. You know, we had a house on the golf course and it was just amazing. But one day, someone knocked on the door and said there’s a prowler in the area. And I’m like “Okay, that’s fine. I’m Welsh.” But then one day I got up and during the snow time, there were steps that came up to our ranch slider but no steps that went away. So at that time, I went to Home Depot and got a hammer, a spanner, a screwdriver because I couldn’t carry a gun in Idaho because I wasn’t a resident, so I got the 2nd best thing. I got a crow bar. And instead of putting them in the tool shed, I put them at the side of my bed in the drawer. And so one night I’m laying there and I heard a noise outside. So I wake up Sarah and I say “Honey, there’s a noise outside. Go and check it.” I’m like - you wouldn’t hit a woman, so… And so every night I would check the house. I would check the windows and I would check the doors. It was like Mission Impossible. I would put the music on and I would run around the house and I would try to get back into the bedroom within 90 seconds and then I would fly myself on the bed. Wives you love that don’t you? When all of the sudden, the guy comes in and jumps on the bed. So I would check the windows every night. And then all of a sudden, kind of long story short, my brother took his life, so my dad and sister came out to stay. We were watching tv and had some dinner. And my dad said I’m going to go to bed cause you know I’ve flown in from Wales and I’m just going to go to bed. And I said Oh yeah, I think we’ll do the same. And so I walk with Sarah to the bedroom. And she turned around and said Honey, aren’t you going to check the house? And I said I don’t need to. My dad’s here. 

How many of us are living in fear and anxiety because we’re not aware that our Father’s home? How many of us are afraid of what’s next because we haven’t had a revelation of presence. And we’re more caught up in our purpose than His presence. Yeah?

And this is what stewardship looks like - is most of us thinking we’re working for God instead of working with Him. This is what stewardship looks like - most of us are waiting for God instead of on God. It doesn’t say they that wait for the Lord renew their strength, it says they that wait on the Lord renew their strength. How many of us are waiting for Him instead of on Him? 

And this is what He’s inviting us…guys there is a whole upgrade of talent. There’s a whole upgrade the Lord wants to do in this place, but it’s not going to be found in yesterday’s thinking. It requires a new upgrade. It requires a new upgrade of thinking. It’s church gym (Jim?) but not as you know it. What does it look to be truly an apostolic center? What does it look like to truly be what God’s called you to be? 

And this is the thing. It’s the tortoise and the hare. Who won the race? Cause consistency will take you places. And one thing I’ve known about this house is you’re a consistent house. This is the message. This is the mandate. We’re not wavering. 

So I want to say to you. I’ll say to the staff and the leadership team don’t waver with what God’s doing next. Because you haven’t looked to the right or to the left, you’ve kept your eyes fixed on what He’s calling you to do. And I feel such a delight of the Lord over you. I don’t want you to just take this corporately, I want you to take this personally. You see the Bible says don’t weary in well doing. Yeah? And so I feel today a prophetic message over you guys is you fully step into the environment of knowing that the Lord has an assignment on you for stewardship not leadership. Because stewards multiply, leaders manage. Am I speaking to somebody?

I want to leave us with this thought. When God speaks over your life, it’s not with a question mark, it’s with an exclamation mark. The issue comes when we don’t realize the fullness of the assignment. We put a question mark where the Lord’s put an exclamation mark. This is the tactic of the enemy friend. When God declares, the enemy brings doubt. He did it right at the beginning in the garden. God said you shall not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. And the enemy came and said but woah, did God really say? And this is what happens, it doesn’t just question what He says, we begin to question what we even believe ourselves. 

And you see this right back in the new testament. Jesus comes. John sees Him and says this is the Lamb of God who’s going to take away the sin of the world. This is the assignment. This is what’s going to happen. Exclamation mark. And we find in Matthew 11 that John is now in prison and sends his disciples to Jesus and asks a question - doesn’t make a statement. The question he asks is “Are You the one? Or do we have to wait for another?” Why did John’s exclamation turn into a question? It’s right there in the verse friend because it says John was in prison. When you are in the prison of your own thinking and fear, when you’re in your own prison where you don’t understand what’s next, even exclamations will turn to questions. 

And I feel today there’s people in this house that yesterday you lived in the exclamation, but today it’s just gone like this and you’re living in the question. Friend I want to invite you. If that’s you, I want you to stand right now. If you feel like there’s a question on your life and not an exclamation, I want you to stand because God is going to make the crooked ways straight right now. And it’s like I knew what we were doing. It’s what I thought the Lord was doing. It’s what I knew was going to happen. But it’s like things are now changing again. Can I suggest to you today change only hurts when we resist? 

….I release the Key of David in this house. That You would open up what needs to be opened up and close what needs to be closed. 

And Lord I just release acceleration on this house. Lord I release acceleration on every life Father right now in Jesus’ name. And Father I thank You that You are taking that which we thought was months and You’re causing days to take place. Taking that which we thought was in the coming days, Father, we release the suddenlies of God. We release the immediate, we release the “and now it came to pass.” 

Matt 11:1 - And now it came to pass. This is going to be the sign of what God’s going to do. Of taking you out of chronos and into kairos. Some of you in this place are going to experience your watch or a clock stopping or changing time. And that will be the sign to you that God is taking you out of chronos and bringing you into kairos. Some people’s watches, some of you are actually going to lose watches. For those with Apple watches, go and get Apple Care. But some of you are going to lose watches. Some of you are going to see time stop. Because what God is stopping in this time, He’s starting in His. 

I’ve shared this before and I’ll say it again. Some of us need to know God’s time zone….God’s time zone is now. It’s not then, it’s now. I remember being jet lagged to the hilt going into a conference, and a well known speaker had just come from 5 countries and looked like a spring chicken. And I’m like Lord why is he like a spring chicken and I look like a choked chicken? And the Lord said this to me, He said Gary because he’s in My time zone and you’re not. God’s time zone…when I said Lord what is that? He said Now. And as a good Baptist, as I was saved as, I asked the Lord for Scriptures. All of a sudden He started taking me through it….I want to tell you right now He’s saved the best til now. 

Prophecy from Gary Morgan

Gary Morgan 05/14/2017 1st Service

This is the first time I’ve come and the Lord’s really given me the word before I got here. I feel like today the Lord wants me to speak into a particular area. And you’ll have to forgive me today because I’ve got the ingredients but I don’t know where we’re going to end up. Is that okay? And so if you allow me today to just open my heart, and just follow the Lord in what He wants to release. Amen?

I believe that guys, you are in such a phenomenal season right now, but I feel like the Lord wants to encourage you to have an upgrade in thinking, have an upgrade in belief, have an upgrade in outlook and an upgrade in perspective.  And a lot of times when God invites, you see the amazing thing about the Kingdom is the Kingdom isn’t an instruction, it’s an invitation. And when God invites us into something, He’s inviting us to go on a journey. But this is the amazing thing - whenever God invites us or whenever God wants to reveal something to us, the prophetic shows up. And you see, the word shows up and this is the amazing thing. We feel like we’re in a season of Okay God we’re entering into this. The prophetic shows up and prophesies these amazing things and it’s like the next day the opposite happens. Lord, really? It’s like the Lord says I’m going to bless you, I’m going to like…everything’s going to be overflowing. And the next day you put your card in the ATM and it’s like oh right. Where did that go?

You see the prophetic isn’t there to reveal to you what can be, it’s revealing to you what is. The question you’ve got to ask is what reality are you believing? And I want to say to us is by the end of this meeting, you’re going to get comfortable with how awesome you are. Because the issue is, the prophetic is saying one thing but we’re believing something else. Therefore, there’s no agreement. Therefore nothing can be established. Am I speaking to somebody?

And so God is wanting to release us into a place where our attitude is in the place of agreement with what the Lord really wants to release us in. And so I want us if we can let’s make this meeting legal and turn to the book of 1 Samuel 9. And one of the things we read here, this is probably one of my favorite parts of Scripture. 

Because before Tobias was born, you know, we had all the prophets tell us we were having a girl. And you see how you can receive the word, but the opposite happens? And so I remember the night before the scan, I go into a dream and I’m before the Father and the Lord asks me “What is your son’s name?” And I said “Tobias John.” And He said “Don’t forget Samuel.” And I woke up and turned to Sarah and said I think we’re having a boy. And she said well we’ll find out today. And so we went to the scan and they did the whole gel and everything. And all of a sudden, you know you didn’t need them to tell us, you could clearly see..Bless the Lord. And so they were like congratulations you’re having a boy. 

And all of a sudden it’s like time stood still. And I’m like God, what about all that was said? And I realized in that moment God wanted us to not only trust in what He said but to trust in what He was saying. You know I could have pulled out some major stones and stoned, but it wasn’t about that. It was about trust. You see, a lot of us think when it comes to prophetic words the currency we transact on is faith. But it’s not, it’s trust. Every time the Lord speaks, He’s not inviting us to faith, He’s inviting us to trust. And a lot of times when the Lord speaks over us, we think fulfillment equals another f which is faith. Lord if only I had enough faith I could fulfill. No - trust. 

You see one of the things I realized - if life, if the enemy, or if God throws me off a cliff, only 2 things can happen. Either God’s going to catch me or He’s going to teach me to fly. And so when God speaks over you it’s that place of transacting with Him in trust. And so all of a sudden, we can find ourselves in life, this is what happens in life - God is setting us up for upgrades all the time. God is setting us up for increase all the time. You see, Bill Johnson’s latest book God is Good. That is the benchmark, that is the beginning place of everything God wants to do in our life. God is good. Period. Yeah? God is good. Period. And so from that place, God’s wanting us to realize that everything that happens in our life is for upgrade. 

One of the things the Lord said to me in coming here is He said Gary I want you to release this message that your greatest anxiety is actually a set up for your greatest assignment. And so we find this in the book of Samuel where Saul loses his donkeys. Donkeys are lost. His father’s donkeys.  Donkeys…what does that speak to me? That speaks to me of stewardship. And so all of a sudden in the midst of stewardship, these things are lost. They’re gone. They’ve disappeared. And all of a sudden, word comes to Saul - Hey there’s a prophet in town. He’s respected by everyone. Everything he says comes to pass. Why don’t you go and see him?

And so on the way to going to see him, Saul asks this question. Well, we can’t go empty handed. We’ve got to release something. And you see this is the amazing thing we have to understand. That in the midst of our prophetic, in the midst of our destiny, we can’t hold on. We’ve got to open up. And this is what happens in the midst of anxiety or in the midst of trouble, we do this [clenches fists]. When things don’t seem to be going right, we clam. You know, we tighten up on our giving, we tighten up on our relationships. You see, the Lord never wants us to tighten up. Most of us want to give up. The Lord wants us to give in. And this is what happens. We clam up. We do this [clenches fists].  And this is what Saul is saying - Hey we’re going to go and something’s going to open up. Therefore we need to open up.  

I want to encourage you today in the greatest place of your anxiety, you will find the greatest place of your assignment. And all of a sudden, they find Samuel. And the Lord had already spoken to Samuel because Saul wasn’t just a donkey herder. He was going to be the future king of Israel. And all of a sudden we find it. And I’m paraphrasing here without reading, Samuel comes up to Saul and says “Hey guess what, you’re going to be king.” And Saul’s response is “I don’t care, where’s my donkeys?” “Buddy, you’re going to be king.”  “Oh well, but where’s my donkeys?”  His anxiety was what he didn’t have. God’s assignment was with who he was going to be. 

You see most of us are sometimes concerned with what we don’t have instead of who God is calling us to be. You see God’s relationship also releases God’s resource. And a lot of times we connect with God in our having instead of our being. And God wants to open something up that our anxiety is not just the pinpoint for our assignment, it’s the pinpoint for our upgrade.  Can I suggest to us today that the greatest place of your anxiety is actually a clue to the greatest place of your assignment. 

And a lot of times the reason we get anxious, the reason we get to the place of Lord I’m not sure what You’re doing is because we don’t know the plan. I’m married to a shaper. What’s the plan? I don’t know. I think the worst thing is to have an influencer married to a shaper or a contemplator because it’s like I’m like ready for anything. As you can tell, I’m a high responder contemplator. No I’m not. I’m like a 90 something influencer. And so married to Sarah, it’s like I’m ready for anything. But someone needs a plan. And this is thing where trust comes in, the currency of trust. Because when the Lord wants to upgrade you, He doesn’t always reveal to you where He’s upgrading you to. And sometimes we don’t have context of what He’s upgrading us to because we’re so consumed by where we currently are. This is why the Lord needs to upgrade our thinking, our belief system. Let me say it like this for the altitude you need the attitude. And if the Lord is increasing you into a space but you have the same thinking. You see this is what I believe. You know the Bible says - Do not be conformed to the this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. And I believe that, but I believe we need to go one step further because God doesn’t just want to renew our minds, He wants to renew our hearts. And the danger comes if we have a renewed mind without a renewed heart, we’ve got conflict. You see, our mind is what we believe here [points to head and then out], our heart is what we believe here [points to chest]. And God doesn’t want us to have conflict. 

And so I believe the Lord is taking you into an amazing season of seeing upgrades and seeing increase. And you’re like yeah Gary we keep hearing that. I want to tell you right now - Get ready. Because in a moment God could shift things. And the thing is isn’t not about getting ready, it’s about being ready. And a lot of times, we think we need to get ready, but God wants us to be ready. You see when these things happen, when increase happens, we can be more focused on our anxiety instead of on our assignment. And our anxiety continually presents itself. 

But I want to tell you something right now. God wants us to get out of a place of seeing these manifestations as enemies. They’re actually opportunities.  You see anxiety can be an obstacle to you or it can be an opportunity for you to step into a place of increase. You see, the question is if God’s calling me to a higher place - is it a boulder? A blockage? Or is it actually an opportunity to step up?  You see, a boulder can be a blockage for there [points ahead], but is actually an opportunity for there [points up]. You see, our position determines our perspective. Let me say it like this, for the one who flys, the sky is always blue. And so a lot of times, we get anxious. We get fearful. Can I actually permission you today to realize that some of these manifestations are not demonic? They’re just a natural response to a supernatural invitation. And a lot of times, here my heart guys, I am a full believer in ministry. I am a full believer in inner healing. I’m a product of it. But a lot of times when we get anxious, when we get fearful we run to ministry instead of mandate. We think we have to medicate it instead of actually using it as an opportunity to step into the upgrade God wants us.  Gary - I’m hearing some evangelicals amongst us - I need scripture and a verse for that. John 14:1. Jesus was wanting to reveal to them the assignment of habitation. Not just in heavenly places but on earth. How does He open the Scripture? John 14:1 - Let not your heart be troubled. You see whenever you are about to enter into an increase, there’s a troubling of heart happens. Whenever you are about to enter into an expansion, there’s a troubling of heart happens. Let’s go back to the beginning of the Gospels. When the supernatural invaded the natural, what’s the first thing the angels said to the shepherds, to Mary, to Elizabeth, to Zacharias? Fear not! But Gary, fear is demonic. No it’s not. It can be demonic, but fear is a natural response to a supernatural invitation. Don’t be distracted by fear. Be invited into faith. Be invited into trust. 

And so all of a sudden, because we can’t work it out, because we don’t understand the process, we get anxious. How many people suffer with anxiety here? Let me ask again. How many people suffer with anxiety? And I”m putting my hand up because I do. If I don’t fully know what’s happening, I get anxious. But I want to tell you right now, that can either distract you or it can destine you. And sometimes in the place of not knowing, in the place of not knowing what God is doing in us and through us. We begin to get anxious. Therefore when we get anxious we begin to get disappointed. We begin to fear. And then that can lead to offense. 

I didn’t want to go here, but I’m going to. You see this is what happens in the place of expansion. A lot of us respond differently. You see, bungee jumping. I have a friend who’s crazy. He’ll jump off anything, but I won’t. And you see, where we are entering into, or what’s about to happen, everyone has a different response. But we can’t write off another person’s response because it’s different to ours. You see what can be adrenaline to one can be anxiety to another. But we have to realize we’re both going in the same direction. 

And so this is what happens. Let me encourage you…this is what happens when expansion and increase begins to happen. We all begin to have different responses. Now the thing is we have to validate them responses because they’re real. Am I saying the responses are wrong? No I’m not. Am I saying the responses are right? No I’m not. I’m just saying we can only manage ourselves, but when something presents itself, we have a response to it. Everyone has a response. 

I had a friend in school. There’s 2 things. He was afraid of clowns and he was afraid of banana skins. His mother used to punish him by putting him in a room and putting a banana skin on the doorknob. And I’m like are you crazy dude? Why banana skins and clowns? He said I don’t know, I just have a fear of them. Guess what he’s doing now? He works in the flippin’ circus. Why? Because he realized at some point in his life, his greatest fear, anxiety was actually the invitation to his greatest purpose. You see, what you are afraid of right now is actually an indication of what the Lord wants to take you into. 

Bible says in Philippians 4:6 - Be anxious for nothing but with everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving, make your requests be made known to God and the God of peace who surpasses all understanding. You see sometimes to step into His purpose, you’ve got to give up your understanding. He will guard your heart and your mind in Christ Jesus. Why? Because that is the 2 places of greatest conflict. You see, a lot of us are trying to protect our environments but we’re not protecting our hearts and our minds. Yeah?

And so when things begin to happen, when anxiety raises up, now let’s go back to Saul. His anxiety was he’s lost the donkeys. And all of a sudden, he’s in this anxious place of what’s going to happen to the donkeys. You see, this is the amazing thing. He’s looking at donkeys. Samuel’s looking at destiny. If he was to step into his destiny, it’s like oh my gosh. I don’t know where I’ve parked my car. Let’s consult the prophet. And you go up to the prophet and say Hey I’ve lost my car. And he’s like ah wow. I don’t care about your car. The Lord’s going to bless you with a billion dollars. Yeah, but I’ve lost my car. Oh but this time tomorrow you’ll have a billion dollars. Yeah, but I’ve lost my car. Who cares where your car is when you’ve got a billion dollars? Am I putting it into perspective for you? You see this is the issue. We present our anxiety. We present our concern, but God is presenting His covenant. We present our inability, but God is presenting His ability. We’re presenting our lack, but God is presenting His abundance. How many of us are transacting with God based on our lack instead of His worth? How many of us are transacting with God based on who we’re not instead of who He is? Lord You called me to that? You’re crazy! I can’t do that, but no, He can. If I can do all things through Christ, then Christ can do all things through me. Am I speaking to somebody?…

The question I want to ask you guys today is what is God doing in your life, what is God positioning in your life for your upgrade that you’re anxious about right now? Is it a relationship that’s just ended? Is it a relationship that’s just started? Is it a new place you’ve just moved? What are you anxious about right now because whatever you are anxious about is actually the place of your greatest increase. And this is what begins to happen. When we step into a place of wanting to recognize and realize that God is actually wanting to bring us into our greatest place for our greatest purpose. You see, what God wants to do to you, He also wants to do through you. And you can be anxious right now. And you could feel like God it’s like I’m being demoted. It’s like I’m put on the side. I want to tell you it’s for your greatest increase, because you’re looking for donkeys. God’s looking for destiny. You think you’re going to be in a field, God’s positioned you for a palace. 

I want to say over this house right now that you’re stepping into, and I know this in the natural, that you’re stepping into this Project Wow. Why is it called Project Wow? Because I’ll tell you right now. 18 months and 3 years from now, everyone will be going “WOW.” “WOW!” “WOW, WOW, WOW” What was our greatest anxiety has now become our best assignment. What we thought was our downfall, God’s actually got us for our upgrade. And this is where our thinking needs to go. God, who do you want me to be in this season that I couldn’t be in my last because you’re posturing me for greater things?

And many of you here right now, I feel in the Spirit, the Lord wants to take off, you see this is what happens. Most of us are used to prisons instead of palaces. And most of us feel restricted by God. Most of us feel like God I’m in a constrained place. How many people feel that right now, they’re like this [arms clenched]. You know I want to tell you why. It’s because you’ve got vision, friend. The Bible says they who have no vision cast off restraint. Therefore if I have vision, what do I have? I have restraint. And a lot of people equals this [clenching] to something being wrong. Constraint and restraint doesn’t mean something’s wrong. It means something’s happening. And if you feel like this right now [clenching], God’s doing the work. But it’s the transaction of trust the Lord wants you to do…. 

Guys, I want to say this over Grace Center. God is releasing demonstration and testimony through you in this season. That it’s not what you will see, it’s what other people will hear as well. And sometimes we get anxious about well what are people seeing, what are people hearing? When God wants to take you into increase, I couldn't give a stuff what people think and I couldn’t give a stuff what people see because God’s got us in a season of increase. And the last time I checked, increase doesn’t look pretty. We were two once. Me and Sarah. Then God decided to add a third. That wasn’t pretty. I don’t know if anyone’s been in a nice birth where it’s like ahhh look there’s something coming out. Oh let’s just put on some beautiful music…you’ve got like Mozart going on and it’s like everything’s lovely you know. It’s like CSI. It’s a crime scene. You know I was there at my son’s birth and I’m seeing all these yellow numbers you know they put everywhere to see where everything was. I’m seeing all the numbers everywhere and I’m like God. It’s like a crime scene. Because when God wants to birth something it ain’t pretty. And sometimes we’re more concerned about image than we are the invitation. Sometimes we’re more concerned about the reputation than the relationship. And this is what the Lord said to me when He asked me to step out in these things. I said God what about my reputation? He said I didn’t have one, what are you doing with one? And this is what anxiety does. We’re more concerned with others’ eyes than His. But it’s our assignment He’s bringing us into….

I want to tell you the Lord wants you not to transact in the place. Wow! God doesn’t want you to transact in the place where you’re trading question but you’re embracing answer. You’re embracing what has been enunciated on your life. And so I feel today in this first service, the Lord wants to begin to upgrade people’s thinking. God wants to upgrade people’s hearts and minds. That we actually recognize anxiety and not become a prisoner of it but actually it becomes a pinpoint for where the Lord is taking us.

I want to tell you right now when God sets vision in your life, you’re going to have a lot of people come and question. Hey are you really going to do this? Really? Are you going to see this on your life? Yes I am. Because guess what? Go back and tell them, the blind see, the lame walk, the dead are raised. You see, most of us want to present our resume. God wants to present demonstration. Yeah? 

And then he goes on, and I’m going to land with this. It says for John came neither eating nor drinking and they said he had a demon. I want to tell you right now. Allow people’s opinions to be opportunities for increase in your life. You know, I love it when people say to me Hey Gary, you’re on the internet. This is what they said about you. I’m like wow. Did they spell my name with one r or two r’s? Cause they can say what they like as long as they spell my name right. If they spelled it with two r’s then I’m going to file a lawsuit. Yeah? Am I speaking to somebody?…

I feel this is a foundation for you to step up onto right now. But wisdom is justified by her children. What does that mean? The decision I make today is actually going to be justified in the fruit that it produces tomorrow. And the question you’ve got to ask is what decision you’re going to make today that’s going to allow the fruit to speak for itself tomorrow. Because what you want to see in your life, you need to seed in your life. What you want to see in your life, you need to seed in your life. A lot of us are in this place of oh Gary I need direction, I need direction in my life. I’m so anxious, I’ve got no direction. How many people want direction? You see direction is a fruit. All of us want to be fruity Christians. Direction is a fruit. But I don’t ask this question. This is what I think God is maturing us in right now.  The Lord spoke to me the other day. He said the greatest mark of the end time church is not going to be a place of all this [arms outstretched], it’s going to be maturity. Maturity, why? Because that’s what creation is crying out for. It’s crying out for mature sons. And so maturity is going to mark the end time church. And out of that maturity all heaven is going to break loose. But the issue is we want all heaven to break loose without the maturity. And you’ll never be able to sustain. 

And so the Lord said this to me, He said Gary you’re always wanting to see the fruit but you’re not willing to plant the seed. And the question I want to ask today is what is the seed you need to plant in your life today so you can partake of the fruit tomorrow. How many people want direction? I’m going to set some homework in this place before I minister in a minute but a lot of us are in this place - I want the fruit. How many people want promotion in their life? How many people want strength in their life? You see, we have all these fruits we want. We go into Whole Foods and we say well I want that, and I want that. I’m telling you friend. God is wanting us to have the farm and not the shop. It’s not just about the fruits in our life. You see and actually, the fruit in our life is not for us. it’s for others. The seed that’s in your life is for you, the fruit that’s in your life is for others. And so if you want direction, if you’re saying today, Gary, I want direction in my life, well that’s the fruit. Let me tell you what the seed is. Proverbs 3:5-6. Trust in the Lord with all your heart, lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him and He will direct your path. The fruit of direction is found in the seed of trust. If you sow trust, God will release the fruit of direction. 

How many people want promotion? You see, the fruit of promotion is found in the seed of humility. Why? Humble yourself under the mighty hand of God and in due season He’ll exalt you.

This is what I love about the Lord. The Lord always invites us into a place and a process that isn’t going to harm us but is actually going to increase us.  Can you see this? It says humble yourself under where? The mighty hand of God. Humility is the greatest place of vulnerability. But He doesn’t leave us vulnerable. He places us where? Under His mighty hand. So in our greatest place of vulnerability comes our greatest place of victory. So if you want promotion in your life, start sowing seeds of humility. 

I want to encourage you to look all throughout Scripture for fruit/seed examples. Lord I want this fruit in my life. Go through the 66 books and find the seed. Cause I want to see maturity come in the body of Christ. That we are not disabled by anxiety but that we are propelled by assignments. Am I speaking to somebody?




Prophecy from Ray Hughes

Ray Hughes 03/27/2017

The Lord gave me a prophetic word: That this place would move from singing songs to releasing a corporate sound.

I am just going to declare this: There is a supernatural deposit and awakening coming to the people of this house that's gonna give them access to the spirit realm - those very songs, and prayers and promises that have been waiting. And all the trauma and the sexual craziness, and all the sexual slavery and all . . . and all the perversion and all the pain and all the everything that humanity is experiencing right now, I wanna tell you this world is not a just place to live, in it is a place full of the mercy and the glory of God and that’s gotta become our language and that’s what we have to awaken in our song and our creativity and that’s who we are.

Right now, the hand of God is moving across the body of Christ and in this room. There is an anointing tonight to burst the hand of God, to burst forth and break through the pain back to the promises that have been waiting for you. There is something on . . . the grace of God in this room tonight to enable the Holy Spirit to reach beyond that orphan shell of who you are and find the spirit reality of who you were created and born to be, and that's what we'll write from and that's what we'll live from and that's . . . and God is gonna be faithful to the people in this room. God is gonna be faithful to you in such a way that He's gonna cause you to live a life now of awakening promises that you didn't know would ever be heard in your life and in your heart.

There is gonna be an incredible acceleration of growth. I'm just seeing that right now: Incredible acceleration of growth. You know the old principle, 'if the wind don't blow, the tree don't grow'. Because as you dance with the wind, it causes your roots to dig deeper into the life-giving water that’s been waiting in places of hiddenness and some of the prophecies and promises have been waiting in places of hiddenness and you could not see em, they've disappeared. The rain came down on you and those prophecies went into the ground it seems and you thought you'd never see em again. Well, now the root systems that God's caused to be released will be accelerated into those springs of living water that are waiting for you down there and accelerated growth is gonna cause your song and your dance and your life to be lived in ways you never thought you'd get to live. And the promises of God are sure to your life. The promises are yes and amen to your life. The promises of God are now released to your life and it will be outrageous, wild, crazy, bizarre encounters with God that is gonna accelerate you into places in God that you can only say heaven has aligned with earth and I got caught in the song. In Jesus name, in Jesus name.

 

 

 

Prophecy from Ray Hughes

Ray Hughes 3/22/2017

June 2 of this past year, at 4:31 am in the morning, I woke up and the Lord began to speak to me about Psalm 18 and Psalm 34 and Psalm 60. And in that moment, at 4:31 am, I awakened enough to capture on this piece of paper something that I feel is going to probably ultimately end up impacting the rest of my life. And it was a word for this church.

At 4:31, the Lord said that you guys are about to experience, not embrace, experience a revelation of the tabernacle of David. It’s not just about “Oh yeah, that’s cool”. No I’m talking about the beginning of an experience that’s going to move you from singing songs to releasing a corporate sound. And it’s not coming, hear the words… it’s not coming, it’s here. Because heaven and earth are aligning in worship for here and it’s a now. 

Here’s what He had me to write - Allow yourself to be bold in your worship and we must stop worshiping the way we want to.  Because old church structures are now being replaced by Heaven’s new structure. And the most vibrant churches in the city always loses its vibrancy when it grows to the point deemed worthy to sustain and manage. Then it disappears from the battlefield of worship and no longer contends for a corporate sound of Heaven because now it’s disappeared from the battlefield of taking new ground.

And in this place there are words, notes, tones spoken and sung, and those words, notes and tones are going to go forth out of here as if a cymbal has been struck. And at the striking of the bell of the cymbal, all of heaven and all of earth is going to be alerted that there is a new sound, a new song and a new language coming out of this house. And there in the center of that cymbal, is what’s called the bell of the cymbal, and at the striking of that, God’s going to cause that sound to become a canopy that is released to the nations from here, from this room.

Because there’s a conflict in the spirit realm, for worship. Never again will it be time in this house to pull down strongholds, it’s always going to be a time to pull down heaven and watch what God does. Strongholds fall because Heaven is revealed. Worship is what releases the glory and reveals the sound and the glory from this place. Everything in the demonic realm is to be exposed and dethroned, but our focus will never be the demonic realm or that enthronement. This is a place where darkness, secrecy, hiddenness and lies have no part of the atmosphere that God wants to release from this place right here. 

And this is a turning point season. The Lord showed me that those who have been driven by, there’s a turning point crossroads thing happening here in the spirit realm. You’ve been given the invitation to access heaven realm. And with that invitation is those that have been driven by the dust will leave from here walking with the wind. And it’s a renaissance wind. Towns around the earth is going to hear the heavens open up because of the winds that are going to be carried from this place. 


Prophecy from David Wagner

David Wagner 3/5/2017 2nd Service

The Lord said to look up. He wants to make eye contact with you. He’s bringing us into a place where we see eye to eye. He’s putting us on the same page. There’s a face to face encounter that many of you are about to have in this next season and there’s no comparison to anything that you’ve experienced prior or in the past. And I just hear the Spirit of the Lord saying that I have turned the calendar, I have turned the page and I have not just brought you into a new chapter or into a new month, but I have brought you into a new era. A new way of doing things. A new alignment has begun.

And I kept seeing these on ramps and off ramps and when you’re on an on ramp or off ramp, normally you have to merge and I feel like this is the season of merging. And I saw the Lord merging you not just onto the highway but I saw the Lord merging you into the fast lane. And I feel like the Lord said this is the season of accelerated presence and accelerated promise. That the Lord said He’s not just going to give you the essentials but He’s coming to bring you the essence of who He is.

I’ve come to not just meet needs this morning but I’ve come to fulfill desires. I’ve not just come to meet needs but I’ve come to give to you what your heart desires. For I’ve found you to be a people that delight in me and if you delight in the Lord, He gives to you the desires of your heart. And I saw many people throwing things up in the air, just things up in the air and He said it’s time to throw caution to the wind. He said “What you’re afraid of is more afraid of you”. And this is season that as you’re about to step out, He’s about to step in.

And I felt as if the hand of the Lord was coming and it was as if He was holding out His hand…prophetically I heard Him say “this is the season of open hand blessing” He’s coming with open hands and He’s coming with an open heart. And literally today I felt like the contents of His heart were being poured out into this room.

And I felt like the Lord said “Stay the course”. And I saw a compass and the compass was kind of wobbly and then it was set on true north. And I feel like the Lord is setting your course on true north. He’s setting you out for the deep waters of what’s ahead.

And I just felt like there is a rapid and accelerated change coming to the region — that there is something that’s about to happen in city governments and county governments of this region in the middle TN valley. And I felt like the Lord said, “Many people do not want to dwell in the valley, they want to go to the mountain top, but there’s life that begins in the valley.” This is a season where He’s about to cause this to be a season of record harvest.

There are some things that are both happening in the natural and they are corresponding in the spirit. I felt like the Lord was about to release the winds of… and the breezes of a gentle spring wind. And I felt like this was going to be a real windy Spring. I felt like there is going to be record winds. They aren’t going to be destructive… but the Lord was about to release these winds…the winds of worship, the winds of change, the winds of the suddenly and I just felt like… and I just heard “Pop, pop pop” and I feel like the Lord is bringing like an adjustment. And I felt like I heard the Lord say, “You feel like you’re out on a limb now, but the Lord says I’m stretching your faith further.”

I felt like the Lord said, “Im not just the God that meets expectations, I exceed them.” And I feel like the Lord says He’s coming as the excessive God. He’s giving you access to His excess. Excessive love, excessive hope, excessive peace, excessive provision, excessive healing, excessive miracles. I felt like the Lord said “This is your season to dare and try, to dare and to try, to dare and to try, to dare and to try to exaggerate his love. I just felt like I heard the Lord say, “You can’t exaggerate me.” You try to exaggerate me, I’ll just do that and exceed that also.

I saw this huge smile on His face and tears streaming down His face today and this is what He said, “I finally found a people that would believe and do what I said. I finally found someone who wasn’t just discussing my Word but was living it out”. I felt like I heard the Lord say He’s ending the discussion bc he is releasing the demonstration with power.

All morning… I kept feeling a swirl of activity. A swirl of angelic presence, lights flashing here and there. And I asked the Lord who they were and He said “Angels of generosity”. I heard the Lord say, “The backing of heaven”. I feel the backing of Heaven in the room. I saw the Lord signing a blank check. It was like you got to put in the number, and when you did He said, “Is that all?” He wants to exceed your expectations. I felt like the Lord is naming this year for GC, “The year of limitless”. There is a limitless presence, limitless provision, limitless power. I believe as a prophetic act, He wants us to look up. Come on, right now look into His eyes. Look into His eyes of determination. Lord right now we want to see eye to eye with you. He wants us to see eye to eye and heart to heart with Him….

I felt like the Lord said no more spiritual miscarriages. No more prophetic miscarriages. The Lord is about to really explode in this church like never before. I heard corks popping and I heard Him just simply say, “Tell them I’m pulling out all the stops.” He’s pulling out all the stops.

… I felt like the Lord was healing cells within cells. I felt like people with immune diseases, stuff with the blood, I saw the Lord healing cells within cells. He reveals to heal. Cells within cells.

I shared this at the end of first service, I kept seeing a finish line. If you’ve ever watched a race, often the finish line is actually also the starting line. I felt like the Lord said many of you today are coming full circle. You’re finishing one chapter, and starting the next. Lord I thank you that new is now. Lord you’ve come to do a new thing. You’ve come to do a new thing.

I saw rest coming on the house. Resting while your running. Resting while you're working. Resting in the promises of God….

I feel like there’s about to be, I kept hearing the Lord saying over and over again “City wide, city wide, city wide” and I saw a needle and a thread and the Lord was sewing this tapestry together from the remnant around. And it’s like I saw from like a 40 mile circle from the city center of Nashville so down maybe towards Columbia all the way up north toward maybe Hendersonville or a little bit further, out to the burbs to Smyrna and places and Madison and I saw the Lord, like these circles of fire coming around. Its like they’re getting tighter and tighter as they came towards the city center. I felt like the Lord said the revival is going to begin off the beaten path….

I felt like the Lord said get ready for the season of Sign, Sealed, Delivered. And I just feel like there’s about to be divine connections and kingdom conversations throughout this city. And I saw people beginning to, first service I talked about merging into the fast lane, but I kept seeing all of these marriage ceremonies and I kept hearing the Lord say there is going to marriages of ministries. That the Lord is erasing and eradicating the competition model and he’s coming to bring the completion model.

I saw the Lord bringing the scattered and the shattered back into the house. I felt like the Lord was calling even prophets that were connected before out of their caves back into the house. I just feel like right now there’s about to be a reconciliation, unity, honor and I saw this foundation of the Father, I talked about it in first service, where the foundation of the church was built on the apostles and prophets and I feel like there’s about to be a demonstration of what it looks like of apostles and prophets to walk together. Healthy local church prophets. Healthy local church leadership flowing together….

Lord, I declare over this place that in the next 40 days, there is a new momentum, there’s miracle momentum in the house. Lord I ask that you would release right now increase, expansion, acceleration. I declare right now that this is the year of answered prayer. Lord this is the year of answered prayer.

Prophecy from David Wagner

David Wagner 3/5/2017 1st Service

Lord I thank you right now that You are doing something new, something special, something unique. Lord I thank you for the original masterpiece, an original move of God that doesn’t look like anything of the past, but looks like what You are doing now and in the future. 

I just hear the Spirit of the Lord saying that this is the season to engage…to engage with My promises, to engage with My word. And the Lord says that I have not only been bringing you into alignment, I’ve been bringing you into agreement…aligning you and causing My word to be agreeable to you. And it has been a stretch. I’ve stretched you beyond where you thought you could be stretched. And I brought you even at times to the place of brokenness. But know this, says the Lord, I have expanded your capacity to contain more of My presence, more of My heart, and more of My provision. 

And the Lord said that this is going to be a breezy spring for the winds of change are beginning to blow through the winds of worship. And I’m coming, says the Lord, to settle in. I’m coming to settle in to what you purposed in your heart to host. I’m not coming for another visitation, I’m not coming for another season of excitement, but I’m coming to possess My dwelling places. For even as it’s written “How lovely is Your dwelling place”, I have made this place a dwelling place. But I have made you, My people, My dwelling places. For I’m about to carry out My word and I’m about to bring you into a season of fulfillment and completion.  And even as I would release the breeze of My Spirit, the breeze and the wind of My presence in this next season, know that you are on a collision course with destiny. For even as you’ve been pursuing Me, I’ve been pursuing you.  And there is about to be a divine collision in the Spirit. And the Lord says that I’m getting ready to blow your minds and knock your socks off. For the Lord says, I am now putting you in a place of acceleration. And even as you’ve begun this new work, and this dream to build, I heard the Lord say it’s going to awaken the city. It’s going to begin to awaken the county. It’s going to begin to awaken the region to the love that I have for the next generation. And there is about to be a multi-generational move of the Spirit of God. It’s going to begin with the babies and flow into the elderly, and from the elderly back down into the babies. And it will not be exclusive, it will be inclusive. For even as I’ve prophesied in Joel and I said I would pour out My Spirit on all flesh, I desire to do it here. And out of this project and out of this season of promise, the Lord says that I’m actually going to begin to give you the hearts of mayors, the hearts of councilmen, the hearts of zoning and planning, and even as foundation is laid, the walls of resistance is coming down. 

And I felt like the Lord said that this is going to be a season where I’m going to give you more for less. And I just really felt like there is one thing on the heel of another, one thing on the heel of another, one blessing on the heel of another. And I just really felt like the Lord has designed you in this hour to engage not only the promise, but to engage in the heavens like never before. There is an atmospheric shift coming over Franklin, coming over Williamson County, coming over the greater Nashville area. And I felt like the Lord said the time is not coming but the time is now. This is a right here and right now season. And I just saw like the heart of God beginning to open and I feel like that there is even about to be, even from this month into next, like a triumphal entry where like the Lord is stepping into every area, into every circumstance, into every situation. And i just really felt like the Lord said stay the course. There’s a recalibration in the Spirit taking place. For many have run and run and run. And even as you’ve run, you’ve just begun to wobble a little, so I’m bringing you into that place of alignment. 

And I felt like this is going to be a season of divine rest that leads a people into restoration…not just the restoration of some things but the restoration of all things. And out of the restoration is going to flow a renewal. And out of the renewal is going to flow a reformation. And out of the reformation, I’m going to release a revolutionary revival throughout the Middle Tennessee Valley that’s going to go north into Chicago. It’s going to go south into the Gulf Coast. It’s going to go to the East coast and West coast. 

And I felt like the Lord said this morning when I woke up, my bed was shaking and I realized that the Lord was shaking some things and He said I have you in the epicenter. I have you in the epicenter.  And from this place, I’m going to release the vibration of My voice and the vibration of the move of My Spirit. It will be unstoppable, it will be uncontainable and it will be undeniable. And I just really felt like the Lord said that He has marked this year as the year of increase, a year of blessing and a year of breakthrough for those who have overcome. And I just really feel like there’s keys being released in this place today. There are keys that are being released to you. They are the keys of David. Connected is yes, a key that literally opens and shuts, but it’s also a sound. And I feel like there’s a sound that’s about to open doors and there’s a sound that’s about to shut the doors of the old season. But I saw the Lord releasing master keys into the hands of the people of this house. The keys of David. What you lock nobody will be able to open. What you open nobody will be able to shut. And I just really felt like the Lord said that I’m about to release a surplus in this house. I’m about to release a supernatural infrastructure, not just for what was planned, but for what I have seen and what I have planned from the foundation of the earth. 

And I just really felt like the Lord said I’m about to give you visibility from the main road. It’s like I almost saw the Lord bringing you to Old Hillsboro Rd. It’s almost like I saw you going down the hill over there. And I said Lord, bought? And He said No. Given. And I feel like that this is a season where the Lord says that I have caused some thing purposely to be held up. I’ve caused some things purposely to be held in the escrow of Heaven for this house, for this body. And I’m about to release the infrastructure for this place shall be a landing strip and a launching pad for many to shake the nations and the region and the nation that I have you in. Get ready, says the Lord, for My hand is about to move, My heart is about to be revealed and I’m about to empty the contents of My heart upon My people.

And I just really felt like this morning like the Lord…I felt like you know if you hit your head, they say like I rung my bell. And I just felt like the Lord rung my bell and I said Lord what are You doing? And He said that He’s ringing the bell, that He’s counting you in, but at the same time I felt the Lord was actually about to disarm a religious power or principality that’s been over the region. And I felt like the Lord said that this religious mindset in the region has built a wall up and it’s caused people to resist receiving. People know how to give but they don’t know how to receive. They’re comfortable with what they know but they’re uncomfortable with trying to receive more of the Holy Spirit. I just felt like that this is the year of the Holy Spirit bypass, where the Lord is bypassing people’s brains to get to their hearts. 

And Lord I just thank you right now in this place that Lord You’re up to something now and You’re up to something new.  I just felt like the Lord kept saying new is now, new is now.  And this is the moment of now faith - Hebrews 11:1 says Now faith is. And I feel a now faith in this room. There is an assurance. There is an engagement with the promises of God, and I just really felt like that the Lord is doing something - all ever since Brett got up to do the declaration and AJ came and she began to share about the vision and Jeff got up - I just kept seeing flashes of light all over the room. It was like I saw angels scurrying about and I said Who are they? And He said, Angels of generosity. And I feel like the Lord is responding to your generosity by assigning angels of generosity to this house. 

And I just really felt like the Lord said that there’s something about the foundation. There’s something about the foundation. And this is what I believe you’re stepping into throughout the remainder of this year. You’re about to step into the foundation of the Father. I saw the Father pouring the foundation - in that is provision, in that is protection, in that is presence. I just really sense even right now that the hand of the Lord is coming to unlock some things. He’s coming to unlock some things in you right now.

I felt like this morning there’s just an open…I know we live in an open heaven and I know it can become kind of cliché because we hear it all the time, but I felt like there is access is the excesses of God right now. I felt like the very excessive extravagance of God is in the room. He’s not just enough, He’s not just more than enough, He’s too much. And the God who’s too much is about to pour out on you like never before, in Jesus’ name. 

Come on right now if you agree with the word, I want you to just begin to pray into it. I really believe it’s not a season to be passive supernaturally, I don’t believe it’s the season to be passive when it comes to the prophetic. Come on. There is a part. This is a promise. He’s sovereign. It’ll happen with the move of His hand, with one word from His mouth, but there’s also a partnership with it, a partnership with what He’s saying. 

And so Lord, we agree with what You say. Lord, we agree with You even if we don’t understand it all. Lord we don’t have to understand it to believe it or to receive it. We just know that You’re good. And so Lord I thank you right now that this is going to be a supernatural spring and summer, that Lord the breeze, the winds of change are blowing across region. That Lord You’re about to do something new in this place. In Jesus’ name. Amen….

I really believe as a people, we are in a place of destiny defining moments - where He’s about to bring us into a season of suddenlies. I know that’s a word we hear a lot in charismatic churches - the suddenlies of God, the suddenlies of God. You can really understand the suddenlies of God because to me, I realize the suddenlies of God don’t come very quickly.  But when they come, they come suddenly. They normally show up when I least expect it…. 

I believe you weren’t just sowing into a children’s wing. You’re actually sowing into your children and your children’s children. Some of you connected to what you sowed - I don’t care 5 cents, 5 million dollars, whatever it is - I believe connected to it is salvation for your family tree. I believe connected to it is a multi generational move of God. And sometimes we just move past the moment.  It’s kind of like we get through this to get to the next thing, but I just really felt like there’s something stirring….

I want to prophesy to you. I believe you’re about to grow by 100 families by the end of the year.  It’s a big prophecy. I’ll put my prophetic reputation on the line. I believe that God is about to cause you to grow by 100 healthy families by the end of the year…. 

Can I tell you something? The fruit of His faithfulness is greater than the pain of your process. And I just felt like the Lord said this morning that He’s about to bring you from process to promise, but you have to stay the course. Galatians says these words - Galatians 6:8 I believe - it says Do not be weary in well-doing. Do not be weary in the waiting. For in due season, you’ll reap if you faint not. I believe that this is a house that is filled with finishers and not fainters. Philippians says that He who began a good work in you is faithful to complete it. They were singing it today again prophetically. He’s the author and the perfecter or the author and the finisher of our faith. Some of you right now God’s about to put the finishing touches on the thing you’ve been believing for. He’s working that prodigal son over. He’s breaking through the hardest of hearts. What will happen if you just ask one more time? What will happen if you dare to believe one more time? Come on, I’m telling you right now that you are in a season of a set up, that this is the season to engage, that God is restoring everything. He is recalibrating some things. He’s also in this season about to cause you to step into a place of redemption like never before. Some of you have laid down your promises cause you thought it’s passed you by, but you need to pick it again. You need to pick it up again….

So Lord, right now in this place, Lord I thank You that You who began a good work in us is faithful to complete it. Come on. If you’ve been weary in the process and you say Dave, there’s a big promise in my life, but I’ve been weary in the waiting and I’ve begun to even look at different things. I’ve begun to make a Plan B. Listen - God is removing every provision for failure. He’s removing everything, every seed that would try to separate you from His promise. And that you’re about to step into the fullness of everything that He’s said because He is not a man that He should lie or the son of man that He should change His mind. He watches over His word day and night. He’s careful to perform it. His word does not return to Him void. But it accomplishes what He sent it forth to do. Whether that word is about business. Whether that word is about ministry, whether that word is about salvation for your family, whether that word is about babies, whether that word is about God bringing you a wife, whether that word is about you stepping into everything that God’s called you to or healing in your body, I am telling you right now as I am standing here - the faithfulness of God is in this room. And that you are about to encounter His faithfulness. And I just really feel like you’re stepping into like 40 days of celebrating His faithfulness. There are testimonies and miracles of faithfulness that He’s about to bring you into like never before….

Lord I just declare right now that there would be no more spiritual miscarriages. Lord, no more prophetic miscarriages. Lord but You are about to bring the promises of God to full term in this house. That Lord we are not of those who shrink back but we are those who believe, even to the tearing down of strongholds. Lord, we stand underneath the canopy of the faithfulness of God, reminding that You are good and that You are true. Lord I thank you Lord that even according to Isaiah 26 - that Lord it says that in You we have a sure thing. We have a sure thing. Jesus, You are our sure thing. Your word is true.  And Lord right now I just declare Lord that this is the year to finish. Come on. Some of you have started books and you put them away. It’s time to finish the book. Some of you started the business plan and you put it away. And it’s time to finish the business plan. Some of you have different inventions and you just thought it’ll never happen. It’s time to get the patents. It’s time to bring them together. Some of you, you knew you had a call of God on your life and you began to prepare for it, but something went wrong in a relationship, something went wrong in your heart, in your life, and the Lord wants to put you on track. Listen, when we mess up or when we miss it, we don’t have to go back to the beginning. We just go to Him. And in Him and by Him and through Him, the promises of God are yes and amen. 

And Lord right now in the name of Jesus, I just prophesy that this is the year to finish. That this is the year to finish and then this is also the year of new beginnings. The Lord just showed me a racetrack and if you’ve ever watched a race often the starting line is also the finish line. And the Lord is about to bring many of you right now full circle. There’s about to be a divine turnaround and right now in this place. Come on. If you’ll just lift your hands, I believe right now that the Lord is about to strengthen your arms. He’s about to strengthen your faith. I feel the gift of faith in the room this morning. It’s not just the measure of faith we get at salvation. It’s not just the faith of a mustard seed. It’s not even your own faith, but I believe it’s the gift of faith talked about in First Corinthians 12, which is not just faith in the Son of God, but it is the faith of the Son of God. That Jesus’ faith is in this room. Come on. He believes in You. I heard Leif Hetland say it like this. When you believe in Jesus, you get saved. But when you realize He believes in you, you get transformed. And I just believe right now in this place that there’s about to be transforming faith - that He believes in you right now. 

So Holy Spirit, Lord, You who began a good work in us, You’re faithful to complete it. Lord I break off every weariness, every tiredness. Lord I silence every voice that’s not the voice of God. Lord I break off right now every place of discouragement. I break off every place of disappointment, and Lord I release right now prophetically that every delay is turning into acceleration. And Lord right now in Jesus’ name we declare right now that this is a season Lord of testimony. It is a season Lord of full circle. That Lord You will do it because You said it Lord. This is the year. This is the time Lord to watch You do what You said You would do. And we rejoice in it. Come on. 

I just saw post-it notes. I saw these yellow post-it notes and the Lord had all of these post-it notes right in front of His face in heaven. And I said Lord, what is that? And He said, prophetic reminders. He never forgets. He never changes His mind. And He just said to tell you that your promise is right in front of His face. And He said this is the year to remember. Some of you have forgotten what He said. It’s time to revisit the promise. It’s time to dig up prophetic words. It’s time to initiate conversations with each other saying- You know what God’s said about me? Come on. It’s time to release right now - to speak it out, to declare it out, to walk it out, to live it out. In Jesus’ name. Amen. 

Prophecy from David Campbell

David Campbell 2/26/17

I believe the Lord is saying this to you- “This is the season that He’s brought you and prepared you for. This is not a new time for you, but it is the old time which has come to life. I’m not asking you to throw away the old, I’m asking you to bring out the old again, look at it again in a new way. For this is not a new revelation but a new understanding of that which I have placed within your heart. I have placed in your spirit things which,” the Lord says, “I have stirred within you. For I’m not asking you to dispense of the old, but to dispense the old. I am asking you to bring it out and to give it to others, for the life I have placed within you is the life which will change that culture around you. For My hand has not been shortened by the events that have happened in the land, but rather My hand has been extended now that I might reach out through you to the generation which you serve.”

“This is the day,” says the Lord, “where I will change before your very eyes things that you thought were unchangeable. I will recover the things that you thought were lost forever. I will cause again for My church to stand in purity and honesty and in power. For these are the days where My power will be seen amongst My people. For these are the days where you will behold the glory of the Lord, even through you for you have decided you are the least worthy of all My servants.”  And says the Lord, “I will take you up and I will use you for I have no unworthy servants. For I have made you to be worthy in the very likeness and image of My own Son. I have changed you from those who had no destiny and no worth to be those who are destined to be with Me. And I’ve given you the worth of My Son that you will always stand up full of integrity, full of love and from you will overflow the love that will change the culture and the land which I have called you to.” Amen.

Prophecy from Ray Hughes

Ray Hughes 1/11/2017

The Cumberland Basin is not a hole that God dug out of the ground for dreams to die in, you know. The Cumberland Basin is a place that He has set aside for a place of bringing us into new heights because we come into new levels of grace and humility. And then we begin to purpose our lives designed around the creativity He created us for. So we’re going to get into a lot of that. And what it looks like for those DNAs to sort of redefine what music is supposed to be about in the earth because the music in the earth has a distinct responsibility as we do to touch heaven with the sound of who we are. And so if there is a corporate symphony of sound that’s supposed to be heard from this region, we already know when you look historically how it has impacted the nations of the world. 

A musical water source or a musical well that has been dug here in this basin was purposed by God to have influence, first impact and then influence throughout the world. And now why in the world would this sovereign God who knows all things and divinely orders the footsteps of all of those that are righteous and love Him…Why would our footsteps be directed to bring all of us at times like these in our lives to places like this in the earth with purposes of heaven, not only in the atmosphere, but already alive and awakened and quickened in our spirits born out of the desire God put in us? 

Now that’s real guys. It’s time for a new song. Time for a new sound. There’s a spirit realm reality that God wants to awaken us to and now we get the joy of walking on this journey right now. And I don’t want to make more out of it than what it is, but I’m not going to make less than what it is either. 

Fact is we are in a distinct and purposed time of God right now to reach out and embrace a new sound and we are the ones that God will use. Some in this room are going to be the ones that God will use to reach out and touch a note that has never been heard in the earth. That God’s been waiting for such a time as this to awaken a prophetic generation to carry impact and then long term multi-generational influence that will change the way the world understands the wonder of our God. And if we can just simply, if we can change the way the church understands worship and music, we will change the way the world encounters God. And God desires to be encountered and encounter. He’s looking for that interaction. 

And I believe we have stepped into a brand-new year, a brand new day, a brand new season and I’m going to be brave enough to call it, not just in the biblical sense, and I’m going to say and a brand new dispensation. I believe there is a prophetic weightiness and a governmental order that’s being aligned right now that we’re all clumsily, across the nations, we’re clumsily trying to find the vocabulary, the language, the liturgy and the lyrics to define what this thing looks like that’s right before us. But what an awesome and amazing time to be alive. 

And I believe that part of what’s going on right now is that God’s getting ready to turn this bowl into saturation level. He’s going to begin to immerse His people in such pure presence of who He is that there’s going to be a saturation of the region with the soundtrack to accompany it. And that’s when the lyric and language of heaven will come. It’s time for us to use our creativity also to baptize this valley with the riches of life giving water and let it flow out of this place as God intended it to for the nations….

And I believe there are people in here who are going to hear things of the Holy Spirit that’s not being taught and I’m not saying, but there’s an impartation and quickenings taking place in people’s lives that’s going to awaken who they were absolutely born to be and you’re about to go through a 90 day transformation process that at any moment, any second, in any service, in any gathering, the Holy Spirit can turn your life upside down and release a sound into your future that opens up the spirit realm and there’s going to be those that will flood in behind that….

Lord, may it be said, may it be said of here everywhere you move you can feel a great hush as though Jesus Himself walked over the mountains and into this town. Lord, out through the valleys among the sons and daughters of this land, whose eyes are now being fully opened to the new day, opened to see Him as He comes to us. Lord let that be said of us. Let this people that carry the DNAs and the blood of generations, the covenant promises down through the ages, that now find themselves living in Nashville, TN waiting, desiring and knowing You. May they be ones that begin to experience the revelation of who You are in such a way that the nations will turn their eyes to this room, in Jesus’ name. They’ll turn their eyes to this room and to those particular unique anointings on the lives that sit in this room. And may our children and our children’s children begin to encounter You now because those will be many of the ones who will win the nations to Jesus. The true prophets to the next generation, most of them, are not even saved yet. Most of the ministrels and the bards that will carry the glory in this city, many of them are not even saved yet. So Lord we stand in that place tonight and we welcome them. We welcome them into your presence. In Jesus’ name. Amen. Amen. 


Prophecy from Ray Hughes

Ray Hughes 1/18/2017

There are coming days. And they’re not way off down there. This prophetic thing that speaks in such vague generalities that there’s no…I want to tell you. I want to tell you right now without apology. There’s coming days when people will walk into this room, walk onto the parking lot. The worship has already created an atmosphere that cancer cannot live in.  Already created atmospheres that autism cannot exist in. Created atmospheres that diseases are broken immediately. And because there’s a sound of the release of the nature of God that the enemy cannot invade and cannot impose himself in.
