"It's Time for Another Hebrews 11:11!"
by Kathi Pelton, Tigard, OR
From the Desk of Steve Shultz:
 So many of you have been pregnant with the promises of God over your life. Though some have been waiting, for what seems like a very long time, it has all been preparation for God to bring it to pass.
Kathi Pelton shares a most excellent word for the season we are in as she shares:
The preparations have been happening for many years. The Church has been pregnant with the promise of giving birth to these sons and daughters for so long now that many abandoned hope, and others allowed hope deferred to give birth to doubt. Like Sarah, who laughed when the promise of motherhood was given to her in her old age, many have laughed at these cities who seem the most unlikely to give birth. BUT GOD!
Yes, God is raising sons and daughters to also transform cities and culture around us!

"It's Time for Another Hebrews 11:11!"
by Kathi Pelton, Tigard, OR
The Earth is Pregnant
We often hear our planet called "Mother Earth". Though this is not a Christian term, I saw a picture of the earth and she was pregnant and about to give birth.
The Church is the midwife that is assisting with the birthing of these multiple sons and daughters. Then suddenly, the time of birthing will arrive. The time of labor and transition is upon her even now, and very soon the children will come forth. Like the thousands upon thousands of butterflies in my vision, so will be the sons and daughters born into the Kingdom of God upon planet Earth will be.
The Transformation of Cities
Transition is happening not only in individual lives, but in cities as well. People are being brought to cities and regions where preparations have been made in the land and in the spiritual atmosphere that will result in a great harvest of souls. Recently, I heard a report that in my city alone a thousand people each week are relocating here (Portland, Oregon). A thousand per week!!!
Why? Because the Church has been preparing the city and shifting the spiritual atmosphere for many years to make this a place where seeds will grow, where caterpillars can be changed into butterflies, where orphans can become sons and daughters and strangers can find family. It will be a "city of refuge" and a resting place for our God. There are many such cities throughout the earth.
The lost may believe that they are moving for reasons that are economic, political, social or educational but they are actually seeds in the field of that city or caterpillars that are about to transform in the place where prayer, praise and workers have been sent. God is also sending prepared workers to these cities to complete the preparation and serve in this great harvest and move of God.
Sarah Will Give Birth – 11:11
The preparations have been happening for many years. The Church has been pregnant with the promise of giving birth to these sons and daughters for so long now that many abandoned hope, and others allowed hope deferred to give birth to doubt. Like Sarah, who laughed when the promise of motherhood was given to her in her old age, many have laughed at these cities who seem the most unlikely to give birth. BUT GOD!
Hebrews 11:11 will emerge once again and "Sarah-Cities" will suddenly give birth to the promise of the Lord. Though the waiting time has been long, the promise will come forth!
"It was by faith that even Sarah was able to have a child, though she was barren and was too old. She believed that God would keep His promise." Hebrews 11:11
Transition is happening even now. It is opening the way for the birthing of the promise. Change is in the air and desires fulfilled will be birthed. Sarah's arms will be filled and she will look into the face of her promise fulfilled.
"'Sing, barren woman, you who never bore a child; burst into song, shout for joy, you who were never in labor; because more are the children of the desolate woman than of her who has a husband,' says the LORD." Isaiah 54:1
Spiritually desolate cities will suddenly become cities of joy! It is far closer than we can imagine...though the promise has tarried, suddenly it will be fulfilled.
"When the LORD restored the fortunes of Zion, we were like those who dreamed. Our mouths were filled with laughter, our tongues with songs of joy. Then it was said among the nations, 'The LORD has done great things for them.' The LORD has done great things for us, and we are filled with joy." Psalm 126:1-3 (To Subscribe to the Elijah List subscribe here.)
