The Wind Has Blown"

Dear Friends and Devoted Prayer Warriors:
I am sure by now that the new year is moving quickly around you.
In the last two weeks, I was privileged to attend three leadership
roundtables. The first was hosted by Steve and Joy Strang of
Charisma along with Jack Hayford on the issues of today's changing
church. Then Dr. Peter Wagner hosted his annual Apostolic Council of
Prophetic Elders. And last week I was with Rick Joyner's MorningStar
Ministries Roundtable. We concluded there is a need for prayer and
fasting through March 14 (Purim).
WE ARE IN A SEASON OF
BREAKING CYCLES
We are in a season of breaking cycles. Let me refresh you on what a
cycle is. A cycle is an interval during which a recurring sequence
of events happens. A cycle can also be a periodically repeated
sequence of events, or something that happens over and over at a
certain time. Sometimes this is impregnated with supernatural
phenomena. A cycle can be linked with time or an event and
orchestrated supernaturally so a repeating wound or injustice occurs
from generation to generation.
I am praying that every old cycle
that would bring you or your family decrease or destruction in the
future is being broken in your life.
I am declaring that you enter into God's restorative power.
Restoration is the power of returning to any place where "God's best
covenant plan was deviated from." Restoration includes reclaiming
lost land, lost health, and lost joy.
Restoration is linked with
restitution. For instance, if a stone in your house was broken by a
workman, it is substituted with another that is even better. I am
declaring that every broken stone in your foundation will be
replaced with new strength in this coming year. Restoration also
means the perfecting, mending or fitting together of every detail of
your life that will cause you to complete or end your race greater
than how you began it. If the enemy tried to overtake you in the
past year, I am decreeing that you have new strength to outrun him
and finish stronger in 2006.
May He UNRAVEL every old cycle in your
life linked with a three fold cord of poverty, infirmity and
religion.
Remember:
-
The opposite of poverty is increase and trust.
-
The opposite of infirmity is healing and strength through joy.
-
The opposite of religion is being willing to embrace something new
when presented to you.
A SIGN FOR CHANGE: THE WIND HAS BLOWN
The Lord's timing is perfect. In November of last year, the Spirit
of God moved on us in a meeting at the church pastored by David
Ireland in northern New Jersey. We asked the Lord for an anointing
to come down so our feet would be set in perfect timing for the year
ahead. We asked Him to break doubt, unbelief, and weariness from us
so we would not be lagging behind, and to remove presumption from
the Body to keep us from running ahead.
The Spirit of the Lord began
to respond to us by saying,
"Let Me rearrange your circumstances.
Look deep in every circumstance around you for they are setting a
new order for your life. Let Me remove your past. Do not strive to
hear Me. Let your prayer life be one of asking in simple faith, and
I will answer you. I will release favor so you can build your
future. Let Me train your hands to prosper for building. Stake your
claim on your future and expect Me to do wondrous things on your
behalf this year."
We then asked the Spirit to stir up the Wind of God in Northern New
Jersey. We decreed that the wind of awakening for the churches,
state, and region (touching New England and New York) would blow.
The Lord began to speak,
"I say to you do not fear the snow. Even in
the time of snow, the wind will begin to blow. When this wind reaches
67 miles per hour, you will know that one season has ended and you
are entering into your future.
I say let the WIND BLOWWWWW!!!!"
The Lord in His sovereign timing
used Dutch Sheets and Brian Simmons to coordinate a meeting for us
to return to New England this past week. The day before arriving,
THE WIND WAS RECORDED AT 68 MPH. The headlines of the paper in
Connecticut read "BLOWN AWAY."
DUTCH SHEETS DECLARES
A TIME OF MIRACLES
The Lord visited Dutch Sheets with a dream. The setting was New
Haven, Connecticut at Gateway Christian Fellowship with Apostle
Brian Simmons. The Lord instructed Dutch to decree three things in
the dream. He told him to declare:
-
Miracles would come to the house
-
Miracles would come as a result of covenant
-
And the region would be
baptized into the miraculous
Last Thursday, Brian Simmons gathered the region to meet at Gateway.
Do you see the significance of God's timing? Only the Lord could
have had the wind blow the day before all over New England and the
original colonies of our nation as a sign that the season has
changed and NOW is the time for AWAKENING.
There will be a move of the Spirit characterized by miracles, signs
and wonders. The winds hit as a sign scheduled perfectly by the Lord
to precede the declaration. Dutch Sheets made the declaration as the
Lord instructed and the crowd from all over New England resounded
with a shout of agreement!
MAY THE LORD PREPARE YOUR SPIRIT FOR AWAKENING
The Lord is revealing signs in the earth so we will understand that
times and seasons have changed.
Let your INTUITION be activated this year.
BREAK the power of OBSESSION by saying, "The Spirit of God will make
me hear and overcome!"
REMOVE anxiety, fear, doubt, anger, frustration, guilt, jealousy and
envy.
?
Get ready to EMBRACE many changes in your life.
?
REDEVELOP your way of touching and communing with the LORD.
A KEY FOCUS FOR THE MONTH
This is a key month for plots of the enemy to be uncovered! Watch
for BREACHES! Set aside three days to fast before you enter your
next position. This is a time to pray for what has been lost in past
seasons and still not recovered to be found. Thank Him for your
times of discipline and days of preparation. They will be
compensated with FAVOR! For the issues that you gained victory in
last year, declare they are secured this year. This month determines
your mindset of victory or else you will have a focus of anguish for
the year. Do not let the strategies of the enemy keep you from
seeing the BEST the Lord has for you in the year ahead!
Prayer for you today:
Here is how I am praying for you today: May the Lord forgive all
your iniquities and heal all of your diseases. May He cast those
transgressions as far as east is from the west. May He redeem you,
your family, and your ministry from destruction. May He crown you
with loving-kindness. May He satisfy your mouth with good things and
renew your youth. May He show you His ways. May His favor rest upon
you. May you hear (shema) and obey the voice of His word. May He
bless you for doing His pleasure. AMEN!
In His Gratitude,
Chuck D. Pierce
