Prophetic
Intercession for the Nations
Jeremiah 23:21-22 - I have not sent these prophets, yet they ran. I have not
spoken to them, yet they prophesied. But if they had stood in My counsel, and
had caused My people to hear My words, then they would have turned them from
their evil way and from the evil of their doings.
Reese Howell was a radical intercessor during World War II whose prophetic
revelation changed the course of the nations. Seeing in the heavens and knowing
the plans of the enemy, he was able to then sabotage those schemes before they
were fulfilled and release the plans of the Lord.
Can We Go into the Counsel of the Lord and Get Fresh Strategies and War Plans
for Today?
I want to share a testimony about the power of prophetic intercession. This
kairos hour in history demands that we must know the times and seasons. Can we
go into the counsel of the Lord and get the fresh strategies and war plans for
today?
During the Gulf War, I kept seeing the same battles taking place on television.
I started to get very frustrated and said, "Lord, I don't want just natural
television. I want Your 'tell-a-vision.' I want to see what is happening in the
heavens over the Middle East. Lord, what is on your heart? There must be more
information. I feel the American government is showing us bits and pieces, but
Lord, what are You doing in the realm of the Spirit?"
On Sunday morning, my pastor of a congregation of 3,000, told us to stand and
pray for Israel. All of a sudden I heard the audible voice of the Lord saying,
"Michael." I asked, "Michael, who?" He said, "Michael, the Archangel." Suddenly
I had an open vision of Michael fighting over Israel. I asked the Lord what he
was doing. Instantly I saw the Prince of Persia and Michael in a fierce battle.
The Lord continued, "The Prince of Persia is trying to pre-empt My time table,
so that's why I've released Michael. The war will end in three days."
The Lord spoke again and He said, "Gabriel." I asked, "Lord, what's Gabe doing?"
Immediately I saw Gabriel moving families and individuals so they wouldn't be
harmed. The next night I was at a Baptist pastor's house and met a pastor from
Israel. As I shook his hand I said, "I saw Michael over Israel. The war is going
to end on the third day." He said, "Michael is the archangel over Israel." When
the pastor was flying back to Israel on Purim, the war ended that very day,
which was three days later.
Be
Willing to Pray Dangerous Prayers
You see, you must be willing to have your antennas up twenty-four hours a day,
seven days a week. Ask the Lord strategic questions about your life, family,
work, school, city, and world events. The Lord is raising up prophets in this
hour who will go into the counsels of the Lord. Intercession, fasting, and
worship accelerate the call of God on each of our lives. Are you available to go
deeper into the war room of God?
Prayer: Lord, I'm so spiritually blind. Open my eyes so that I can see what
is happening in the realm of the Spirit. I so want to pray dangerous prayers
that can stop the plans of the enemy and release Your power. I want to hear Your
voice and know Your ways. Help me to pray in a way that establishes heaven on
earth so that Your will is done.
Hearing the Voice of God
Hosea 4:6 - My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge.
I was at an Army base staying with a young couple for a weekend ministry
assignment. Right before I left, the young wife approached me and said, "Jill,
you've met three of my children, but did you know that I had a fourth child?" I
replied to her, "No, I didn't."
She sadly turned to me, with tears welling up in her eyes and softly began, "I
want to share with you how my baby died. I was sitting here on the couch,
watching my sweet baby in a basinet across the living room. All of a sudden, a
black figure walked across the room and just hovered on top of the basinet. I
heard my baby struggle for breath, and then she died. I really didn't know what
to do. Do you think it could have been a spirit of death?"
Gripped with sadness and shock, I turned to her and said, "Yes, I do." Her story
devastated me. As I drove down the road weeping and crying out to the Lord, I
asked Him, "All she had to do was rebuke the spirit of death! Why did that baby
have to die because of her ignorance?"
In that moment, the Lord simply replied to me, "My people perish from lack of
knowledge."
Prophecy and Hearing the Lord's Voice is Not Just Reserved for An Elite Platform
Ministry
Beloved, hearing the Lord's voice is not an option. It is survival! The tragedy
of this baby dying could have been avoided if she had rebuked that spirit of
death in Jesus' name. We are all called to the prophetic lifestyle and to be
naturally supernatural. Prophecy is not just reserved for an elite platform
ministry. The Lord wants us to hear His voice in everyday life and know how to
pray for our loved ones.
However, we must remember that learning how to hear the voice of the Lord is a
process. Sometimes you will just get an impression, a prompting, a feeling, a
picture, or a knowing. Here's the key: God wants us to love Him so much so that
we are willing to risk, be foolish and step out with those impressions. If we
are faithful in the little, He will give us more. Do you have your antennas up
in the Holy Spirit? Or are you so spiritually co-dependent that you just wait
for the next prophet to roll into town, so you'll get your word and transcribe
it in your archives?
There must be tenacity in you where you wrestle with God to hear His voice. The
Lord asks us to come to Him as little children. Often He will only give me part
of the word. As I step out, I then get the next part of it. Don't wait for a
full Technicolor vision projected on the wall before you start talking! Start
with the small impressions and more will follow. I realize that it is scary to
walk on water, but honestly, Beloved, it is more frightening to stay in the
boat.
Hearing from God is Your Birthright
It's time to seize our inheritance as a prophetic people. Hearing from God is
your birthright. Ask the Holy Spirit to teach you. People's very lives depend on
our willingness to hear the voice of God. Be a divine detective and ask the Lord
to take you through The School of the Holy Spirit! Willingness will take us
farther in the Kingdom of God than perfection.
Prayer: Oh Lord, help me to grow up in You. I want to hear your voice and I
want You to use my life to bring others to You! Teach me to take my prayers as
seriously as You do and help me to remember that the power of life and death is
in my tongue. Lord, teach me how to pray.

"Intercession and Divine Encounters"
by Jill Austin
$10.00 Audio Cassette Series
$12.00 CD Series |
Changing History through Radical Prayer
Outside the palace walls Mordecai stands, a strategic gate-keeper, crying out in
prophetic intercession to stop the demonic decrees to exterminate the entire
Jewish nation. From the inner courts, in her royal robes, Queen Esther summons
her people to fast and pray for a miracle. Two hands join and the destiny of a
nation is changed forever. In this teaching, Jill powerfully and prophetically
preaches on how God is fulfilling the Malachi 4 mandate, bringing two
generations together in radical prophetic intercession to save His people. This
tape will empower you to be one who stands in the counsel of the Lord,
possessing governmental authority in the heavens, to battle both in the courts
of heaven and of men, reversing the decrees of death over your life, your
family, and your nation.
When the Lord Breaks In...
Do you feel unqualified or unworthy for a visitation? Jill's teaching shatters
illusions and misunderstandings by revealing how God visits His people, not
based upon their goodness, but because of His own. She sheds light on the
supernatural by offering live clips from interviews and incredible testimonies
of men and women, much like you, who experienced life-changing visitations. In
this tape, you will journey to the throne room of God, marvel at the four living
creatures, stand in amazing awe of your Maker, and gain greater desperation for
God. A favorite among the Master Potter staff, this album offers two radical
tapes for truly radical believers. Warning to listener: The Lord will break in
suddenly!Feel free to order online OR

"Radical Forerunners: Mary and
Esther"
by Jill Austin
$10.00 Audio Cassette Series
$12.00 CD Series |
Mary:
A Radical Forerunner
When faced with the death of all you hold dear - God's promises, your dreams,
even personal relationships - which will be your cry, "Lord, why have you
forsaken me?" or "Yes, Lord, be it done to me according to your will!" In order
to carry God's glory, you must understand the cycles in your prophetic journey.
Even after God overshadows you with the Holy Spirit and impregnates you with His
purposes, there are seasons of spiritual warfare, obscurity, or even times when
your faith dries up. Mary ended up at the cross, heartbroken and agonized, just
as we all must, whether by our own choice or through the choices of others. But
the cross is never the end; there must be a death before there can be a
resurrection!
Esther: Extending the Golden Scepter
"For such a time as this" Queen Esther was strategically placed in the courts of
the King, amidst the demonic influence of a Hitler-like Haman who wanted to
destroy the Jews. Learn how Esther, a war queen, became a Holy Spirit strategist
instead of a militant feminist, enjoying the favor of God and man in the palace.
We can move as she did, with fresh protocol and etiquette, reigning and ruling
in full partnership with the King. God wants to reveal to us His prophetic
timing and strategies. He wants to set up divine ambushes for the very enemies
that are trying to wipe out you and your family seed. Are you willing to be made
ready for the King? Is your bridal love enough to keep you obedient against
life-threatening odds?Feel free to
