A Glimpse into the Life of an Army Chaplain
in Kuwait, "I can't begin to tell you everything God is doing here . . . I have
never been a part of such a spiritual revival."
May 4, 2005
An
article in the Baptist Press News highlights the deployment of Pastor Jerry
Shacklett from Kentucky to a Naval base in Kuwait to serve as chaplain for the U.S.
Army National Guard's 1/487th field artillery unit.
Shacklett is adjusting to living and ministering among the troops; in an email to
his wife, Ruth Ann, he said, "God is taking my faith deeper. I am working harder
in sermon preparation. I am learning to live without conveniences. I don't need
fancy pews, chairs or pulpits. Sometimes you have a tailgate of a Hummer and that's
it."

"A
SHOT OF GREAT GRACE 'OVERFLOW FROM HEAVEN' TO EARTH ON 05/05/05" -- ALSO THE NATIONAL
DAY OF PRAYER
by Bill Yount

FROM THE DESK OF STEVE SHULTZ:
For
a number of months, many prophetic voices have seen a great significance coming
for May 5, 2005.
Clearly, the 5/5/05 brings to mind that "triple grace" concept, as God seems to
love and operate with numbers (not numerology). Many things in the Bible were in
3's, 5's, 7's, 12's, etc. God seemed to always speak in these type of numbers.
Any numerology that came along later, by the enemy, was Satan's counterfeit of how
God loved and LOVES to use numbers.
Nevertheless, even to this day, prophetically, God often speaks in numbers among
the prophets, and "5" is known as the number of grace.
The National Day of Prayer this year is May 5, 2005 (5/5/05), which many
are seeing as a sign of triple grace.
Make no mistake, however, that on the same day we are praying this year, and on
the same day God injects grace all the more into the earth (see the article below),
so the enemy will want to -- and TRY TO -- take advantage of that day of our prayers
for his evil purposes. Resist the enemy in this.
With that in mind, receive His grace as you pray through the National Day of Prayer,
May 5, 2005. But do not be "unaware of the enemy's schemes," for wherever you see
God working, know for certain that Satan will want to try to thwart HIM. However
. . .
Don't allow it.
Pray that your communication lines will stay open and clear in your relationships,
all around this May 5 date and this general season of time. Just know that it is
normal for Satan to try to thwart grace through miscommunications and the twisting
of words.
Give your sins and weaknesses to God; put your bat (that you beat yourself up with)
down quickly.
Standing in Grace together -- which is the only way we CAN stand,

"SHOUT
TO THE EARTH . . . AN INJECTION OF 'GREAT' GRACE WILL BE SHOT INTO IT ON 05/05/05!"
I sensed the heavens were shouting to the angels, "Shout to the earth and wake it
up! There is something coming from outside of their world."
"If four is the number of the world, then it represents man's weakness and helplessness
and vanity. But four plus one = five is significant of Divine strength added to
and made perfect in that weakness; of omnipotence combined with the impotence of
earth; of Divine favor (grace) uninfluenced and invincible!" [From Numbers
in Scripture, E.W. Bullinger]
GRACE TO OVERCOME SIN!
The Tabernacle had "five" for its dominant number . . . nearly every measurement
was a multiple of five. I sense Job 5:24 is being activated in the earth
this day.
"And thou shalt know that
thy tabernacle shall be in peace; and thou shalt visit thy habitation, and shalt
not sin." KJV, Emphasis mine
I sense, this day, an "overcoming" grace is being
released in the earth to strongly convict of sin not only to repentance, but to
actually "go and sin no more!"
I saw the goodness of the Lord leading many to
repentance by the Holy Spirit, showing us that our sins were hindering many blessings
and rewards and, therefore, missing the best God had for us! No sin was worth it
compared to the great things God was showing us He promised to do if we would turn
from those sins.
GRACE TO LAY ASIDE "EVERY WEIGHT AND
SIN THAT SO EASILY BESETS US!"
Caution: Don't focus on your sins . . . focus on God!
Once you ask for forgiveness and turn from sin,
know that God has forgiven and cleansed you from it.
Hebrews says to "lay aside" every weight and sin.
When you lay something aside, it may be still there, but you don't focus on it.
If you focus on it more than God, it becomes an idol and you are worshipping your
sins instead of God! Although sin stinks like fertilizer, let it cause you to grow
toward the Lord who is all your righteousness for you; stand complete in Him!!
OUR WORDS TO BE SEASONED WITH GRACE!
I sense a great grace coming upon our mouths and tongues, to speak a right word
in due season to them who are weary! I see the Lord putting a watch at the door
of our lips.
In I Corinthians 14:19 Paul says, "Yet in the church
I had rather speak five words with my understanding, that by my voice I might
teach other also, than ten thousand words in an unknown tongue." KJV, Emphasis mine
With "five" mentioned here, I believe a special
anointing of God's grace is coming upon our words as we speak to others in this
hour, including to the unsaved. Speaking in an unknown tongue is powerful for our
edification and, I believe, helps us to speak in our understanding.
GRACE FOR PROTECTION!
Psalm 5:12 "For thou,
Lord, wilt bless the righteous; with favour wilt thou compass him as with a shield."
KJV
GRACE TO GO THROUGH!
Isaiah 43:2 "When [not
if] thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers,
they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not
be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee." KJV, Notation mine
I sense great grace being given this day to go
through great trials, instead of being delivered from them. "If you're going through
hell . . . don't stop!" Whatever you are going through, remember, you are going
through!
"AN 'OVERFLOW' FROM MY OVERFLOW OF
GRACE BEING GIVEN TO THE CHIEF OF SINNERS UPON THE EARTH!"
I sense a day of "crazy" grace being freely given to the worst sinners upon the
earth! I sense the Father saying, "Just because I want to! Just to show my marvelous,
rich grace to those who have sin abounding in them! My grace actually looks for
sin and gets excited about forgiving it!"
Grace shouts, getting excited over sinners, "I
love you! I'll take that sin, and that sin over here; and I'll take that sin over
there! Let me take that sin . . . please!"
I ALMOST SENSED THAT GOD'S MIDDLE NAME IS "GRACE"!
AMAZING!

"How God Sees You . . .
Even on the Worst Day of Your Christian Walk"
by Steve Shultz
$10.00 CD Teaching
|
|
|
 |
|
This
may be one of my most "need-to-chew-on" words I've ever brought to the Body --
yet one of the most needed words FOR the Body. I've been chewing on this
teaching myself for weeks. How can God look with so much favor on us, even when
we fail so often -- whether we fail Him -- or simply fail ourselves?
In a message I've never heard taught quite this
way, I believe God has given me truths that are glaringly obvious in Scripture,
simple to grasp (because it's right IN THE WORD), yet almost "risky" to teach
because it makes God's Goodness look almost like "unsanctified grace." The thing
about grace is this . . . God's Throne is called, THE THRONE OF GRACE for a
reason . . . Because Grace, by its definition, cannot BE "unsanctified" since
Jesus carried the Cross to His death because of His Grace.
Maybe this message is not for you, but if you ever feel like you don't, or
can't, or will never measure up in God's eyes, then if you get one message,
please get this one. I don't often so strongly recommend one of my own
teachings, but I went through a lot of warfare while preparing this word, and I
don't want anyone to miss it who needs it. Do me a personal favor: Get this CD
or tape.
Blessings,
Steve Shultz

"The Symbolic Meanings of
Numbers"
by Rose Crownover
$8.50 Book
|
|
|
 |
|
Nothing is too big or too small and insignificant
for our God. He numbers the stars in the heavens, as well as the hairs on our
head.
The numbers in the Bible have fascinated many Bible scholars. It is full of
them; one God, 2 witnesses, Jesus rose on the 3rd day, 4 winds, 3 corners of the
earth, 7 churches, 7 days of creation, 9 gifts and fruit of the Spirit, 10
commandments, 10 plagues, 12 tribes of Israel, etc, etc, etc. Many numbers are
used in ways that would indicate a certain significance to the number itself.
This booklet explores the possible symbolic meanings of these numbers.
