2,000-Year-Old Seed from Ancient Masada Sprouts into "Tree of Life"
June 18, 2005
A seed which came out of an archaeological dig
on Mt. Masada was cultivated and has sprouted, yielding 5 leaves and standing 14
inches high. Since carbon dating on a tiny portion of the seed revealed its age
as being 2,000-years-old, the plant was nicknamed Methuselah, after the 900-year-old
biblical character.
Planted on January 25th of this year, Methuselah looks like any ordinary date-palm
seedling, however it is the oldest seed known to produce a living young tree. The
Judean date palm tree was said to have medicinal properties in its fruit and scientists
are eager to discover its make-up . . .

"Wake
Up, Sleeping Beauty"
(Plus a second
word for the Pacific Northwest)

 TO
THE CHURCH IN THE HEBRIDES AND THE CHURCH AT LARGE: "Get Prepared for the 'Wedding
Supper of the Lamb'"
Over the last few years I have had
a stirring in my heart about being prepared for the "wedding supper of the Lamb,"
spoken of by Jesus in one parable about the end of the age.
It all started with a recurring dream
about going to Scotland. I asked the Lord about a year and a half ago, if He really
wanted me to go, where was He sending me, and what was the message or purpose? To
my surprise, I heard a clear word that He was sending me to the Hebrides Islands
and the message was "preparation for the wedding supper of the Lamb." Both of these
were unfamiliar to me.
It is much too long of a story for
an email post to describe the process of how I came to the understanding and timing
of at least some of this message . . . but I know that this is the year He is sending
me to the Hebrides and this is the time to prepare for the wedding supper of the
Lamb. I gave a detailed prophetic word to our community of faith about this in March
this year. The following is a summary of what I believe the Lord is saying to the
church in the Hebrides, and also to the church at large.
"BRIDAL LOVE"
This is a year the Body of Christ will see an acceleration of being prepared as
a bride for the Bridegroom. Many will be awakened and fall in love with Jesus in
a radical way. Not only will this love cause people to come to an abandonment in
following the Lord, but it will set people free from fears and the identity crisis
so many have had that has kept them from loving obedience to Christ.
There is a love called "Bridal Love"
that is supernatural, which God gives the church for the Son of God. It is a passionate,
pursuing, radical love and devotion that nothing can stop. We have seen this kind
of love and abandonment in forerunners and heroes of the faith in the past, and
in some today. But I believe God is releasing this like a fire that will spread
and cannot be put out in this lifetime. It will start with an awakening of the church
to who she is as the Bride -- even a future queen. It will survive testing and,
in the end, give way to a company of people who will follow the Lamb wherever He
goes in life or death.
"WAKE UP, SLEEPING BEAUTY"
Much like the Sleeping Beauty in the childhood story, the church has been asleep
and unaware of her destiny. Our immaturity and lack of identity and purpose in Christ
has kept us from seeing the greatness that is upon us and how near our lover is
to coming for us.
In the childhood story, the prince,
her future husband and king, woos her and comes to her rescue when she falls asleep.
He kisses her and she awakens, finding her true love. Get ready for a big kiss from
Jesus this year. Get ready to fall head over heals in love with Him. And get ready
to be united with Him in life and death in these crucial last days of both trouble
and harvest. God is about to open portals of Bridal Love and glory in many places
this year.

Part #2:
A Word for The Pacific NW --
Opening a Gateway in the Heavenlies Over the Columbia River Basin and the Northwest
Region
 Note
by Steve Shultz:
This word below was given several
weeks after the above word, also by Denny Cline, pastor of the Albany Vineyard.
God just suddenly downloaded it to him, unexpectedly. I would use this for prayer
and intercession to bring to light things that are hidden regarding this issue and
the Native American reconciliation needs.
Denny
Cline:
"[In a vision, I was shown] There was an exchange, in the past, of grain (like corn)
for guns that created an unholy alliance in the spirit realm. [This had to to do
with the Native Americans in the NW Columbia River Basin]. This alliance clouded
the spiritual atmosphere, and still does to this day, in the Columbia River Basin.
The Columbia River Basin is -- I believe
I was shown again by the Lord -- a gateway in the heavenlies for the Northwest region,
and this issue is important concerning revival.
It needs to be cleared up somehow
so the gateway can be open again in this region.
