From the desk of Steve Shultz:
In order for God to get people to disburse throughout the earth, He confounded their language so people had to leave and start a new work in many parts of the planet. Such is the case in the next phase of the birthing process of a very, VERY PREGNANT Church.
Be encouraged by this very pregnant word by Bill Yount plus get these awesome products by him below:
Bill Yount:
In a Vision, I Saw a "Spiritual Sonogram" of a Very Pregnant Church!
I saw in the Spirit a "spiritual sonogram" of a very pregnant church. When there's a pregnancy you can take a sonogram to see how the pregnancy is coming along. As I was watching this pregnancy come into its final stages, complications were developing. There was great pressure with extended labor pains and frustration in many churches.
A Sonogram Will Show You How Many Babies You Are Going to Have!
The reason why many churches are having a difficult pregnancy in giving birth to what God wants to bring forth is because – there are "TWO IN THE WOMB!" The reason they feel so restricted is because a "DOUBLE BIRTH" is taking place! The Lord is about to give them double for their trouble!
An Unexpected "Double" Answer to Prayer for a Great Harvest!
I sense in the Spirit that many churches have been praying and crying out for a great harvest and unknowingly have conceived in their "spiritual wombs" more than one seed for more than one birth to advance God's Kingdom. I sense this is a season of "double portion or blessing" – "giving birth to twins" for many churches.
Many leaders may fail to see God's bigger picture. There may be double births taking place in one church. Some will think it's the enemy trying to divide their "vision" of reaching the Harvest, but it's actually God's multiplication system being punched in to "bless" churches with more of His greater vision to reach the lost by birthing more than one vision in a church.
"There is a Kingdom that scatters and yet increases."
Sometimes Two Church From One
Don't be surprised to see the Lord birth two churches out of one in some congregations. This may look on the surface like division or a "church split." Some may even feel like they are being pushed out of a church through unpleasant, complicated circumstances – but this often is a normal part of the Divine birthing process, for some would never leave the womb without God's "ways and means committee." Many times this is God's way of planting churches to fulfill His plans more effectively.
Many of God's people see a church as rejecting them and pushing them out instead of realizing that that church is actually giving them birth. It's important to realize that the church you came out of became your "spiritual mother" who birthed you. "Honor her all the days of your life." Leave a blessing behind you. Some "spiritual fathers" who have founded churches and later have had to watch many in their congregations seemingly desert them – fail to see with God's perspective. These "spiritual fathers" have actually been used to mature their flock enough for them to leave the nest to fulfill their call in a different place.
As you do not know the path of the wind, or how the body is formed in a mother's womb, so you cannot understand the work of God, the Maker of all things. Sow your seed in the morning, and at evening let your hands not be idle, for you do not know which will succeed, whether this or that, or whether both will do equally well.—Ecclesiastes 11:5-6
Twin Purposes
Some churches may have "Twin Purposes" inside of them. Similar purposes but different enough that there is the need and necessity for a godly separation to let them both live. In the natural, twins are looked upon as a blessing, although we know they will need TLC – tender loving care! As in the natural as well as in the Spirit, it is not wrong to have twins; they are a double blessing.
It's interesting that verse five in Ecclesiastes 11 (above) talks about the womb and pregnancy and verse six talks about the sowing of seed for a harvest. These seem to go together in God's Kingdom.
So is your church having trouble or is it having labor pains?
