CHUCK PIERCE: "URGENT!
DO NOT LET THE DESERT STRIKE BACK!"
Intro.
by Steve Shultz:
There are only a few prophets or prophetesses who see at the level that Chuck
Pierce does.
When an emergency hits our nation, we look first to Chuck and one or two others,
to see what they have to say about it.
Here is a report in almost a personal letter form, a re-cap of Chuck Pierce's words we
sent out earlier, and instructions on how you should stand and pray, and what to
expect in this hour.
We have entered a new season in the last 24 hours.
Keep praying during the prayer watches of the night and without ceasing.
Blessings,
Steve Shultz
THE ELIJAH LIST
www.elijahlist.com
Just
yesterday Steve Shultz and I were discussing current events. I shared with
him that for the last several weeks, the Lord has led me on prayer watches every
three hours all through the day and throughout the night. While at work, I walk
the perimeter of the block where the Elijah List is located at the hours of 9
am, 12 pm, and 3 pm. The purpose is to AGREE with, and DECREE God's
established borders and His due order
for us--focusing much on the power of Jesus' name and His blood. At night, the
decreeing has been an establishing of the same--God's borders and due order, but
for our nation.
If ever there was a time to "watch and pray," this is the time. God WILL
give you the strategies AND the authority to establish HIS Kingdom here on
earth.
Let's WATCH and PRAY!

Word
by Chuck Pierce, written TODAY: August 10, 2006
The Plots of the Desert are Being Uncovered!
This is a very interesting season! Wars and more wars! Floods and more floods!
However, the Lord is aware of everything that is happening. Because of the TIME
CAPSULE I saw in the Heavens in June (previously posted on the Elijah List,
click here) and
the word the Lord had me give at Jubilee Church in Camarillo on January 29, 2006
concerning Lebanon, (previously posted on the Elijah List, click
here), I have just finished
taping a segment on TBN in Florida with Mark Chironna, and two "This is Your Day"
programs with Benny Hinn in California. "The Praise the Lord" taping will air next
Monday evening at 10 pm (Eastern Time), and "This is Your Day" will air next
Monday, Tuesday, and Friday (check local listings for times and availability).
I had planned to be home this week, but the Lord had other plans. I am amazed at
the Lord's faithfulness and your faithful prayers. By today, August 10, the
time frame that "the desert's plot to strike back" was to occur. If you have
watched the news, a major terrorist plot was uncovered today. I will explain
this in detail below. This plot started unraveling at 2 am, August 10. That is
why we must allow the Lord to reorder our day and understand how to operate in
the night watches.
Also, I am so glad I obeyed the Lord in January when He said stop and decree:
"Watch Lebanon, for it will be where the Middle East crisis intersects this
year." The warfare and the faith released from this prophecy are amazing. The
Lord wanted us to be sure to know that the situation in the Middle East this
summer is part of His plan. The warfare over the Body understanding the times
and season we are living in, is tremendous.
While preparing to broadcast the
"Praise the Lord" show with Mark Chironna, Kim Daniels, Bishop David Evans,
Vicki Yohi, and others, the audio was completely knocked out. They have now
informed us that taping will air next Monday evening at 10 pm (Eastern Time). I
was asked to share about the times we are living in and the new book,
Reordering Your Day: Understanding and Embracing the Four Prayer Watches. If
you do not have this book, it is invaluable as we move forward into our next
season of prayer. (You can order this book below.)
I am preparing to take a team to Israel the second week of September.
Please be in prayer as our team of 12 goes into this area of conflict. My family
is great, but please keep them covered. These are intense times.
PROSPERING as the SEVEN YEAR WAR SEASON CONTINUES!
Many are beginning to understand and embrace the Seven Year War Season that we are
living through, which began in September 2001. We are almost at the end of the
fifth year of this season. The warfare is intense and will continue to escalate
the next couple of years. We are in a major preparation phase for our future. We
received this report from Israel about those in the war:
"The soldiers only have 15 seconds that their heads can be out of their tanks in
Lebanon. That is how long it takes the enemy to "spot" them. In the Northern
part of Israel, people have one minute to get to their shelter from the time the
warning siren is heard. We have to think quick, be alert, act quickly...in the
spiritual war, as well as the physical. Seconds matter! Seconds!" This statement is key for us to understand in how the Lord is training us at
this time.
Rick Ridings son-in-law, Adam, writes the following:
"On the frontline in Lebanon, it was like living out
Psalms 91." He stated that
it felt like there was a shield around him. Many times shots were fired directly
at him, but they didn't succeed in hitting him. Read
Psalms 91, and ask the Lord
to reveal to you your abiding place for this season of your life.
Here are Key Prayer Points for Israel:
1. Pray for Israel's defense strategies. Israel may occupy Tyre. Read
Ezekiel 28,
regarding the King of Tyre who says,
"I am a god...." Certain leaders reflect
the same attitude as the king of Tyre.
2. Pray for Israel's defense ministry.
3. Pray for Israel's economy. Fruits and vegetables are just rotting on the
ground. Houses and buildings are destroyed and businesses are shut down. Some
say it will take 10 years for all the burned forests and vegetation to recover
and that the economy will need a miracle at this point. The good news is that
cities are open to the Messianic Body helping.
Let A Harvest Mentality Develop!
The Lord is developing a harvest mentality in us as we move into the next two
years of this war season. I have been meditating on
Isaiah 60, especially
verses
18-22,
"Violence shall no more be heard in your land, nor devastation or destruction
within your borders, but you shall call your walls Salvation and your gates
Praise...The Lord shall be to you an everlasting light, and your God your glory
and your beauty...the days of your mourning shall be ended. Your people also
shall all be (uncompromisingly and consistently) righteous; they shall possess
the land forever, the branch of My planting, the work of My hands, that I may be
glorified. The least one shall become a thousand (a clan), and the small one a
strong nation. I, the Lord, will hasten it in its (appointed) time."
What spoke to me for you was: A little one shall become a thousand! This means
that there shall be a great increase, as if ONE or the SMALLEST of something
given or begun, shall be multiplied to a thousand. Do not despise any small
beginnings in your life this month.
THE BLESSING OF THE MONTH OF AV
I want to especially bless you this month, and declare that no weapon formed
against you will prosper! In history, this has been the most violent month
against God's covenant plan and people. Every month has a blessing from the
Lord. His will is for us to move from blessing to blessing until blessings
overtake us! We are in the fifth month of the Hebrew year--the month of Av. This
is the month to "Hear and Be Concerned." This month has been ordained to provoke
you to make decisions on what you have heard.
This is the month the Lion roars
(Amos 3:8). Allow the Roar of the Lion of Judah to form within your spirit. The
Roar of the Lord in you causes you to transform and metamorphosize into your
identity for the future. This roar will disintegrate the things that would
resist your best. This has always been the most destructive month for God's
covenant people. I am praying that you are shielded and protected. Since
"hearing" is so key this month, we are praying that you have a new prophetic
anointing, and that the spirit of wisdom and revelation rests upon you. This is a
month of predestined connections. May the Lord position key people in your path.
THE TIME CAPSULE
The Lord showed me the TIME CAPSULE in June, when I was with Dutch Sheets, and
Cindy and Mike Jacobs in Washington DC. While we were there, the Lord said for
me to declare that DC would flood as a sign to the nation, and as an affirmation
to the Word and time table. Within the next three days, the FLOOD came in the DC
area. This was a sign of cleansing and timing of what He is doing. If the sign
is that powerful, the word is more powerful!
Timing is important. How we seek the Lord in Heaven affects the outcome of the
Earth in our generation. Remember we must "Eat the Word."
Let me REVIEW! Here is
what I saw in the Time Capsule the Lord showed me:
Now--August 10: "The desert will strike back." We must learn to resist the
strikes of the enemy during this time. You are making headway against the enemy.
Do not let wilderness, desert spirits overtake you! Uncover the plots of the
enemy and stand firm.
August 9-September 5:
"The breakthrough window will appear for God's covenant
plan." We must decree an alignment of this plan into our lives, churches, cities,
and nations. Covenant is so important to understand. Bring God's will from
Heaven into the Earth. Read
Luke 11. Pray the Lord's Prayer. Ask for the gift in
you to be activated in a new way. Decree that the Lord will make room for your
gift. Declare that your conscience become clear. Leave behind anything that has
cluttered vision in the past.
September 5-October 12:
"Leaders for the future will be divinely positioned" I
saw the Body of Christ moving like a game of musical chairs. Some leaders will
retire, others will resign, some will be removed because they are resisting the Holy
Spirit's plan. The Lord will make room for the gifts needed to advance His
Kingdom. The leaders for the future must be positioned!
October 12-–Into the Future: "We become a new threshing instrument; a sharpened
sword in the hand of the Lord." The circumstance you are going through is
sharpening you and bringing forth your identity for the future. We will look
totally different.
Future--Forward: "The clash of the swords begins." Get sharpened! The swords of
the earth, representing the spiritual realms of the Heavens, begin to clash.
This determines the future of the generations!
(Revelation 12)
The portion of the WORD relative to this time was: "The DESERT will strike
Back." This was a period that would go from July 8-August 10. I knew I needed to
write you and decree that "THE DESERT WILL NOT STRIKE BACK AND DEFEAT YOU!" The
terror plots uncovered last night are an indicator of the Lord's faithfulness.
THIS MONTH ALSO MEANS THAT YOU ARE AT THE END OF ONE HIGHWAY AND THE BEGINNING
OF THE NEXT!
Let me explain "Desert," so we see how to walk in victory and not fall captive to
the enemy's plan. This is a time where many roads in our lives are coming to an
end and new roads are forming. When we think of desert, our perception is
usually that of a barren, burning, sandy, waste place. Arabah (now the Ghor), is
the sunken valley North and South of the Dead Sea. This is the deepest and
hottest depression on the earth. There are no palms growing there now, yet black
trunks of palm are still found drifting onto the shores of the Dead Sea
(Ezekiel
47:8). The Arabah will bloom! Your desert can bloom!
We can view the desert as a solitary, lonely, dry, desolate or barren place where
we are wandering in the wilderness, and being held captive, OR we can see the
desert from a different perspective!
Isaiah 35:1-8 says,
"THE WILDERNESS and the dry land shall be glad; the desert
shall rejoice and blossom like the rose and the autumn crocus. It shall blossom
abundantly and rejoice even with joy and singing. The glory of Lebanon shall be
given to it, the excellency of (Mount) Carmel and (the plain) of Sharon. They
shall see the glory of the Lord, the majesty and splendor and excellency of our
God."
"Strengthen the weak hands and make firm the feeble and tottering knees.
(Hebrews 12:12.) Say to those who are of a fearful and hasty heart, 'Be strong,
fear not! Behold, your God will come with vengeance; with the recompense of God
He will come and save you.' Then the eyes of the blind shall be opened, and the
ears of the deaf shall be unstopped. Then shall the lame man leap like a hart,
and the tongue of the dumb shall sing for joy.
(Matthew 11:5.)
For waters shall break forth in
the wilderness and streams in the desert.
And the burning sand and
the mirage shall become a pool, and the thirsty ground springs of water; in the
haunt of jackals, where they lay resting, shall be grass with reeds and rushes.
And a HIGHWAY shall be there, and a way; and it shall be called the Holy
Way...."
This passage reveals that God is able to make the desert a place capable of
providing food and of giving life. The power of this transformation is ample
witness to the importance of desert, and all it symbolizes in ancient Israel and
the early church. Your desert lands will be transformed into fertile and
productive fields. God will put rivers in the desert
(Isaiah 43:19-20). Your
desert can bloom and rejoice!
(Isaiah 35:1, 6-7.) The fir trees will grow, and
the deserts will look as lush as the Garden of Eden
(Isaiah 51:3).
Glory will
come out of Lebanon. In the midst of your present war, you can blossom and the
GLORY of the Lord can be revealed.
FOCUS: WE MUST CHOOSE TO SEE OUR WILDERNESS OR DESERT PLACE AS THE BEGINNING OF
OUR HIGHWAY INTO OUR FUTURE!
The desert is used, often in metaphors or similes, to demonstrate God's power to
transform. The Lord has the ability to demonstrate His power to us in the desert
place. The desert can be the beginning of your new thing! I am declaring that
every crooked road becomes straight and that you see the road ahead into your
future!
A vivid example of this latter ability to transform the desert and all it
symbolizes, is found in the feeding of the four thousand
(Matthew 15:32-39, Mark
8:1-10). In this Biblical incident, the desert represents a place incapable of
providing food (life!) for great numbers of people. Jesus taught His disciples
in this situation, that there are resources in the desert that can multiply and
produce the necessary sustenance for the future. May you multiply in your desert
place!
When Jesus needed to find solitude, He withdrew from the large crowds
(Luke
4:42; 9:10-12) to the desert (solitary places) for privacy, and a time of prayer
with His Father. This is where He could hear what Father was saying. Your desert
can be a place of hearing!
Read Luke 4 and
Matthew 4. Jesus was led into the wilderness by the Spirit. You
could have been directed into your wilderness by the Holy Spirit. He then resisted
temptation. He was led out of the wilderness with POWER! See how Jesus overcame
temptation in the wilderness. Do not let the enemy's voice reign in your life.
Let a new Power of the Holy Spirit develop in this season of your life.
Expect Changes and Suddenlies in Your Life
Things are happening suddenly! Your atmosphere is changing rapidly! Ask the Lord
to make you able to SEE the miracles that He is doing in your atmosphere,
workplace, and home. There is a due time or proper time for things to happen in
our lives. There is a concept that as we pray and trust, the Lord is mounting or
summing up our prayers. The perfect time becomes "the fullness of time"
(Galatians 4:4), and what we have invested, is poured out in a multiplied form.
If we keep preparing and going through the trials that are in our lives by
faith, eventually the blessings of God will overtake us.
Remember:
1. Without revelation from the Throne Room, we are weak and incapable of
breaking loose what God has for us in our strength, and limited to our own
wisdom.
2. He does not come when everything is at peace, perfect and quiet, and all our
circumstances are fully taken care of.
3. He visits us at His favorable time in our lives, when we are responding by faith.
A small amount of faith (mustard-seed quantity) can cause the God of the
Universe to visit us. He can birth a nation in a day. He can change your
circumstances in a day. The response of faith to God by man can cause a
"suddenly" to occur.
4. Many are being trained to enter into this Harvest. Look at your circumstances
and testings as a catalyst in the hands of a Holy God to develop an overcoming
testimony. In due time, the promise and manifestation of His will shall be
hastened, and, "He that shall come, will come, and will not tarry," Hebrews 10:37.
RECEIVE the Blessing of the MONTH of AV! The next portion of the Time Capsule is
August 9-September 5: "The Breakthrough Window will appear for God's covenant
plan in your life!" Watch carefully!
