Dear Faithful Seekers:
I am so excited to write you. I have waited as long as I can before I share a portion
of what the Lord has shown me for this new season. The Lord began to release this
revelation to me beginning at Rosh Hashanah.
This is a year of change and redirection for me. I feel like the Spirit of God
is giving me new intercessory assignments. One specific assignment is how to plunder
the enemy's camp, and another is to pave the way and create a vehicle for the transference
of wealth.
This will be a year that I will be circling the United States and visiting key cities.
I will also be finishing the Five Year Call to the 40/70 Window with
a trip to Italy. Additionally, I have seen port cities and key cities throughout
the United States where the Lord wants to visit.
Trade and the release of supply lines and wealth are important concepts this year.
I will also continue to develop Eagles of God strategic mission prayer teams to
send to various parts of our nation and the other nations of the world.
STARTING THIS MONTH, I WILL BE SENDING A 10-DAY
PRAYER FOCUS EACH MONTH SO YOU CAN REALLY DEVELOP THE MIND OF THE LORD IN CERTAIN
AREAS (Romans 12:1,2). You can repeat these prayer focuses three times a month,
or a single time, whenever you prefer to pray them during a month. They will
reflect important revelation each month that should be developed in each one of
us throughout the year.
Understanding The Times and Seasons is Key for Our Victory!
Most of us do not understand the Biblical time-tables. Timing is built around
the Feasts. The Old Testament contains two calendars - a civil and a religious one
- and this complicates our understanding of the origins of the New Year.
We have begun the "Head of the Year." The
Head of the Year begins at Rosh Hashanah and includes the Feast of Tabernacles.
This is different from the first month of the year, which actually begins at Passover.
As we prophetically mature in the Feast of Tabernacles (Zech. 14), these days become
more and more important. We find Jesus celebrating this feast in the New Testament
in John 7, the Feast of Illumination. May the Spirit of Revelation and Wisdom
surround you now!
Let's review this season:
- In May 2001
The Future War of the
Church (by Chuck D. Pierce and Rebecca Wagner Sytsema) was published to
help the Body shift into a mindset for war.
- In September 2001, the Hebrew Year 5762,
we entered into a "Seven Year War Season."
- In September 2002, the Hebrew Year 5763,
we moved into a "Sabbath Day Rest Year," a year to test and rebuild our faith.
- The past year, beginning September 2003, or the
Hebrew Year 5764, was a year filled with Secrets, Mysteries and Surprises,
and was a time to understand Doors.
Now we have entered the Hebrew Year 5765.
This will be a year to circle, surround and plunder
the enemy's camp. This year also means "to take a compass and chart your course
for the future." We are just beginning to see the DOOR of our future develop. There
are many enemies waiting to oppose us on the other side of this door. Therefore,
this will be a year of violent praise! This is a year to let the ROAR
of the Lord rise above the sound of the enemy! I am excited about this fourth
year of the seven year war season we are in!
Receive this PROPHETIC DECREE:
I hear the Lord say:
"Throw open the window of your heart and receive the sound of heaven!
Let the wind bring the sound that you need through your window. Your conscience
is like a window between soul and spirit. Make sure nothing is clouding your conscience.
Open your mouth and release the shout of victory! This is the year
of confession and decree. What you say now determines your future. If you will cleanse
your conscience, then the revelation that has not been able to influence your mind
will find entrance. Though the enemy is roaming like a mighty lion seeking whom
he may destroy, there is a ROAR in you to be released. This ROAR will defy
the enemy. Go past that which seems invincible in your life.
Get in the river of change that is flowing by your door and let it take
you to your next place. Get a shield of protection around you and birth the
NEW that I have for you. Your latter end (future) will be greater than your
beginning. The RIVER is changing courses!
Ready yourself for the next war ahead! Don't remain in your last war
cycle. Make sure you are allowing or causing or choosing for the old to end! Deal
with all of your dangerous emotions so they will not present great challenges to
you by the middle of next year. Get ready to advance into your next phase of victory!
Receive a new anointing. Be anointed for victory over death cycles
and the fear of death. Be anointed for victory over demonic forces that would
try to stop you in the future (particularly through the end of March). Be anointed
for increase and harvest so you begin to fill My storehouses. Be anointed
with an Issachar anointing to interpret the times so you know what decisions to
make so your will does My will in Heaven! Be surrounded with My Glory and be favored
where you walk. Be surrounded and sealed by the Holy Spirit. Worship Me in
a new way and watch your discernment increase. Reality is produced when you worship
in Word (Truth) and Spirit. You must allow your worship to take a turn in the Spirit.
Do not stay earthbound! End old cycles. Do not cycle through your wilderness
again. Break the cycle of Mt. Sinai (don't get around that mountain again!) and
head toward and up Mt. Zion. In the face of your enemy, praise violently! Let
praise BIND the strongman and then plunder, take and repossess your spoils."
Surrounding Your Enemies with Violent Praise: The Year 5765
(September 2004 – October 2005)
At each breaking day of a new season, we need to have a renewed commitment to the
One who made us and gives us life. Psalms
37:5-6 says: "Commit everything you do to the Lord.
Trust Him to help you do it, and He will. Your innocence will be clear to everyone.
He will vindicate you with the blazing light of justice shining down as from the
noonday sun." (TLB)
Your commitment to us propels us into the places
God calls us to minister. I would like to declare to you as you enter this New Year,
the Hebrew Year 5765, that you be encompassed in "THE NEW." New is
defined as: different from one of the same which existed before; or made fresh.
Here are 8 NEW Issues to look for in your life this year:
1. New relationships. May your relationship with the Lord be new and
fresh, and may He supernaturally connect you horizontally with others that will
cause you to come into a greater level of success.
2. New acts. May the Lord divinely intervene in your life with signs,
wonders and miracles.
3. New identity. May His fullness flow through your personality. May
your soul be restored.
4. New weapons for the war ahead. The trumpet is sounding a new sound.
Listen carefully. May you receive everything you need to defeat your enemies.
5. A new garment of favor to go with your new identity. May you radiate
with favor and have an entry way into new opportunities.
6. A new sound. May you hear the sound of victory and shout this sound
from the rooftops.
7. A new anointing. May you be anointed in a way that every yoke be
broken.
8. A new level of authority. May you receive the ability to stand
in dominion in the sphere of authority that you have been granted by God.
The Meaning of This Year 5765
Hebrew numbers have word meaning. This year the number 5-7-6-5 is spelled
Tov, Shin, Samekh, Hei. Tov means a stamp, seal, mark or impression
like the sealing of every believer by the Holy Spirit. This will be a year to see
the seal set on God's covenant plan for our future.
Some of the significant words beginning with
Tov mean to seek out, spy out, explore, to prevail over, overpower, to lay
hold of, to be completed or finished. Shin means to come full circle,
consume, and destroy. Samekh means to turn, to surround, go around,
a repeating cycle, to encompass, or enclose. Hei means revelation,
wind, shout or roar, praise and Spirit and Word.
Shin, samekh, and hei together form
the Hebrew verb "TO PLUNDER". This is a year to develop your wall of protection.
This is a year that the Lord will review our city walls. Some cites will begin to
experience darkness while others will see the fire of God established.
There will be a SOUND this year. We will hear the
roar of an army, of a fire, a tumult of battle, loud expressive praise and rejoicing
(Halel – Hallelujah!). Joyful shouting will come forth from those who tread the
winepress, produce wine and bring in the harvest. Memorize Zechariah 2:5:
"fire around you and the glory within". There will be a supernatural
alignment producing a wall of fire.
A Year to Circle the Wagons!
When the enemy encircles you, you must circle the wagons and find security.
This phrase was important for pioneers to understand. We will be setting new courses
in the Spirit this year. The enemy will attempt to surround you, so be sure to develop
your shields of protection. This was a defensive tactic that pioneers used on their
journey to their new settling place.
Another example is that of the Musk Ox. These animals
form a circle around the cow that is giving birth. This produces protection so the
next generation can come forth. No other animal has the defense method of musk oxen.
When danger threatens they do not run away. Instead, a herd of twenty to forty individuals
backs into a rough circle facing outward with the calves in the center or under
their mother's bellies.
This ring of horned heads can defy such natural
enemies as the arctic wolf and the grizzly bear. From time to time a bull dashes
out to do battle, then returns to the circle. He is exceedingly nimble. A single
sweep of his horns can cripple or kill a wolf, dog or Eskimo hunter armed with a
spear. For intercessors and prayer groups, you must be like the musk ox this
year.
This is a year to walk a FINE LINE in every area of life. Do not be afraid
of falling. Do not try to stay balanced in the flesh. This is a year of the
Holy Spirit supernaturally rekindling the power gifts. The war will
take a supernatural turn. Example: There is a fine line between word of knowledge
and ESP (I Cor. 12 &14).
This is a year of supernatural, divine teaching.
Teaching will defy religion. The Lord will reveal a different dimension of
the Word to expound upon (Mark 2). This will cause the Church to shift
or harden. This will be teaching that will penetrate into strongholds and religious
structures in regions.
There will be such demonic manifestations
that the Lord will send His troops into the religious camp. This is a Year for
Women to become secure in who they are in the Lord and to release supernatural
influence in the earth (Jeremiah 31:22). This will also be a year
of violent praise, releasing angelic forces to come to our help.
Read II Kings 6. Do not look at your
enemies with dismay this year but see the supernatural realm of angelic hosts that
have surrounded you to bring help.
10-Day Prophetic Declaration Prayer Focus for Shifting
Your Mind to Receive the New Revelation
Day 1. Declare the Lord will take His compass, chart your course, and
set a new direction for fullness in your life. Read and pray Psalm 118
and I Cor. 16:5-18.
Day 2. Declare that God will give you the strategy to surround what
has been or seemed invincible in your past. Read and pray Joshua 5-7.
Day 3. Declare that you will be overwhelmed and encompassed by His
supernatural LOVE. This will release a dimension of compassion that
the Church has lost. This will cause the healing mantle to be restored
back to the Church. (Healing will spring forth this year!) This will open the door
for prodigals to return. Read and pray Matthew 9 and
Luke 15.
Day 4. Declare that you will know your spiritual and physical boundaries.
This is a year of Divine Commandments. The Lord will be restructuring our
boundaries so the law can be fulfilled in our hearts. This will allow us to take
back ground this year from the enemy who attempts to shift laws and time. Satan
is a legalist. Decree that all unfair legal practices set against you break. Read
and pray Daniel 7.
Day 5. Declare that this is a year to come Full Circle. The Lord will
give you a second chance to confront and deal with that thing that defeated you
in the last season! …or you will go around that same mountain again. Read and pray
Psalm 138. Read II Samuel 5. Listen carefully for the
new sound of the wind in the mulberry trees. Read the Book of Jonah.
Day 6. Declare that this will be a year of a new expression of worship.
Be expressive in PRAISE and rejoicing in the midst of your battles. Do not
hide your emotions this year. Read and pray II Chronicles 20. The
Roar of the Lion of Judah will win your battles!
Day 7. Declare that the generations will connect this year. The generations
must war together this year (Isaiah 59:15-21). The word generation
is linked with circle. Read and pray Esther 9.
Day 8. Declare that this will be a year that you PLUNDER the enemy's
camp. Read and pray through Exodus 3 – 12. (The
Future War of the Church explains dethroning the gods of Egypt). I Samuel
30 shows how David got a handle on his emotions and recovered his loss.
Day 9. Declare that you will enter into a new dimension of revelation
that produces unexpected surprises in the enemy's camp. Prepare the way and
expect victory! Read and pray II Kings 3. Do not let the enemy's retaliation
cause you to back up.
Day 10. Declare that every voice that is not God's voice will be silenced.
Declare that every lion in your pit will shut its mouth. Read and pray Daniel
6 and I Peter 5.
Thanks to so many of you for participating in the
Seven Days of Stillness Prayer Focus. We are getting many reports
of victory. Please continue to bring your emotions before the LORD so that every
out-of-control or up-and-down pattern will be shifted. Another principle of "circle"
occurs in the issue of circumcision. Let the Lord circumcise your heart in a new
way so that you can move forward with a clear conscience into your future.
Blessings,
Chuck D. Pierce
