Prophetic Word
"But one who prophesies speaks to men for edification and exhortation and consolation." ~ 1 Cor 14:3Through Jeanne Allen
I AM going to release a new anointing, a refreshing of the anointing that was on the early church, when men and women valued not their lives unto death, thereby releasing faith in a measure that few in this nation have understood.
I shall call upon leaders to return to My heart's cry instead of their current foci.
Prepare the hearts of the people, I say, for that refreshing of their first love, so there will be a turn around, a new accountability to one another, even in the body of Christ, so that My people are not divided but stand as one in the holiness, integrity and humility I desire.
I would have My people demonstrate My righteousness, My loving-kindness and deference towards one another, not seeking to make their names known, but upholding Mine as the focus of their ministry and lifestyle, for I shall choose My army of righteous children to overtake the enemy who would destroy lives, and in the hour ahead, would desire to totally obliterate My name from nations around the world.
Yes, My power is second to none. My true servants and children shall walk in an anointing, an empowering as few have done through the years.
Stand fast, for I shall call forth many to show forth My glory.
Rejoice! Be bold, for the Lord your God is with you!
I shall call you forth to claim new territory for the King of Kings and Lord of Lords. My Son Jesus won the victory and it is time for My people to stand firm in what He has won and to take territory from the enemy at every turn.

Do You Love?
By Donna Astern
The love we show one another is a sign of the depth of harmony we are in with God's Spirit. Recently my friend Jeanne passed on to me the prophetic word she received which is posted in the left-hand column. Add it to this exhortation from Dante, and the message is reinforced.
The Lord is interested in how we treat one another.
Do You Love? By Dante Payton "...love others as well as you love yourself."
~ Matthew 23:29b (Message Bible)
One day the Lord asked me,"Dante, how do you know if you truly love someone?" Knowing He was referring to "agape" love (the God-kind of love), I still responded, "What do You mean?" God said, "You know you truly love someone when you see how much your weaknesses affect another person, and you care enough to change."
I found this particularly intriguing. And, if we're honest we'll admit we tend to hide or make excuses for our shortcomings telling ourselves and others, "Oh that's just how I am." We justify our idiosyncrasies-- you know, those "things" about us, that uncanny potential to alienate us from others. Intuitively, we know when we've done something wrong, but instead of waiting for the leading of the Holy Spirit to give us His wisdom to make amends, we often go into our bag of tricks... as if that worked the last time! Unbeknownst to us, we send those around us the uncomfortable message that we don't care about how we make them feel, and even worse, we're telling them they're not worth our effort to change.
"Dear children, let's not merely say that we love each other; let us show the truth by our actions."
~ I John 3:18, NLT
I have often found that we tend to operate with a "religious" love. We wear our masks in church or "amongst people." Some of us even smile and nod our heads smugly when the minister gets on others for being unloving and exclusive when all along God was talking to us. "They're just not the type of person I roll (have fun, wanna be seen) with," many of us say in our hearts. But is this the attitude of agape-- unconditional, widespread, godly love? Let us patiently and humbly discern the nature of this cleverly disguised euphemism for arrogance and pride.
"My dear children, let's not just talk about love; let's practice real love. This is the only way we'll know we're living truly, living in God's reality."
~ I John 3:18, The Message Bible
Without love, we are blind. We often fail to see the things God sees. God told Samuel that He does not see as men see, but God sees men's hearts. He knows their needs and wants, their hurts and fears, and their dreams and goals. Many of us sing the song, "Open The Eyes of My Heart," in the worship services. God hears our sincerity and grants our request by giving us an opportunity to reach out and show love. But, what do we do when it's someone outside our "circle", someone we've prejudged and labeled as "inconvenient"? We often retreat in fear or into our comfort zones.
God only knows what would have happened if He decided not to leave the comforts of Heaven. I shudder to think what if He'd chosen to think I was an "inconvenience" to Him. Or, not worthy of His company, attention and kindness?" What if the Father chose to keep us outside His circle? What if God said, "I'm going to keep to Myself and just do what I do. I'll let them do them, and I'll do Me. Maybe I'll get around to them when they've reached My standards."? God didn't take us for granted, still why do we do this to each other?
"This is how much God loved the world: He gave his Son, his one and only Son. And this is why: so that no one need be destroyed; by believing in him, anyone can have a whole and lasting life. God didn't go to all the trouble of sending his Son merely to point an accusing finger, telling the world how bad it was. He came to help, to put the world right again. Anyone who trusts in him is acquitted; anyone who refuses to trust him has long since been under the death sentence without knowing it. And why? Because of that person's failure to believe in the one-of-a-kind Son of God when introduced to him."
~ John 3:16-18, Message Bible
Love is only done when it's done God's way. I Corinthians 13 tells us that love is patient and kind. Kindness bears with it a mechanism of initiative where it makes faith-filled steps to maintain a bond. Love has the power to heal wounds and to deliver us from fear and bondage. True love sets us free from rejection, oppression, and the like. All we must do is trust God by following His example of showing unconditional love.
"Love never fails..."
~ I Corinthians 13:8

What is a Coach?
"A Coach helps explore where in life you want to go, While trainers simply instruct on what you need to know, Therapists provide a thorough analysis of your past, And mentors tell of experiential truths that can last, And finally there's the consultant who supposedly provides all the solutions, while creatively taking all the dollars of your institution!" ~ from Center for Coaching Excellence
