From the desk of Steve Shultz:
This is an excellent word of "revelation to reality" by John Belt. I like words that are direct and to the point as this one. It's a time of longings fulfilled – a day of promises from the Lord coming to pass as John shares here:
"Even now promises are being possessed and there is more to come. As we experience a gradual increase in promises being possessed, both individually and corporately, it will propel us into an amazing season where doors will fly open to an abundant possession of promises."
Be blessed in this new season,
Steve

John Belt:
Moving From Revelation to Reality
God desires our revelation to become reality. The things that He has given us in our dreams He desires to make manifest in our lives. We have been given the ability to determine the path that we will travel through the our actions and the words of our mouth.
Revelation to Reality
James 3:4 "Look also at ships: although they are so large and are driven by fierce winds, they are turned by a very small rudder wherever the pilot desires."
James speaks of our tongues being like the rudder of a ship. As small as the tongue is, it has great control of where we end up. If we can learn to bring what we say under the influence of the Holy Spirit, good, eternal fruit will come of it.
Season of Pruning
Many have been in a season of pruning so that they may be even more fruitful in the next season. Pruning is not pleasant in the beginning, but later it yields a greater increase of fruit.
Deuteronomy 5:32-33 "Therefore you shall be careful to do as the Lord your God has commanded you; you shall not turn aside to the right hand or to the left. You shall walk in all the ways which the Lord your God has commanded you, that you may live and that it may be well with you, and that you may prolong your days in the land which you shall possess."
During the season of pruning it is all the more important to keep integrity in what we do and say. I believe the Lord is saying to His Body, "Hold your rudder in right position" and "Stay the course." Even now promises are being possessed and there is more to come. As we experience a gradual increase in promises being possessed, both individually and corporately, it will propel us into an amazing season where doors will fly open to an abundant possession of promises.
Be Activated
This is a great time to be activated in the spirit. This means that we see opportunities at every turn. There are opportunities to demonstrate God's love to people. Don't assume that everyone has heard the truth of the Gospel or has experienced "His life". Take time to share the life of God with others.
God wants us to expand beyond the borders we have preconceived in our natural mind. Don't say, "I can't do this" or "That is not me", because God wants to put something new in you. God continually "adds to us" things that would not be our "natural inclination".
2 Corinthians 5:18-19 "Now all things are of God, who has reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ, and has given us the ministry of reconciliation, that is, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not imputing their trespasses to them, and has committed to us the word of reconciliation."
Do you realize that we are all ministers of the Gospel? The pulpit is just one very small outlet of ministry.
Jesus did close to 99% of His ministry outside the walls of a building. The five-fold ministry is just to get the saints equipped to go out into the world.
Pull Heaven's Revelation Into Reality
God is continually giving us promises to encourage us to believe, interceded and decree these things into existence. Take time every day to "pull down" those promises that God has given to you.
Luke 11:2 So He said to them, "When you pray, say: Our Father in Heaven, Holy is Your name. Your Kingdom come. Your will be done on earth as it is in Heaven..."
If God has shown you a specific promise (i.e., healing power manifested in a dream, vision or by impression or other), enter into worship and thanksgiving with decrees – pulling down that promise and combining it with actions that will activate that promise. It is our part to make revelation reality in the earth.
