Positioned to Win in 2010 by Receiving our Holy Spirit Second Wind

 

In 2010 a new reviving and enabling Wind of the Holy Spirit is suddenly going to sweep through the Church like a second wind for an exhausted runner.

 

We are going through the Esther process to be Positioned to Win the great battle between the kingdom of God and the kingdom of darkness. Esther went through the preparation of the bitter and the sweet.  We have been going through the sweet of blessings and the bitter of pressure, problems and lack.  Esther’s preparation was completed and then she went before the King in the 10th month.  Esther received Grace and Favor from the king and was chosen to be queen and Positioned to Win. (Esther 2:8-18)

 

The Church is going before King Jesus this 10th year of 2000.  There will be ones who are called, chosen, appointed and Position to Win in 2010.  Christ’s Third Reformation people are being prepared and positioned to be at the right place at the right time with queenly authority to make the decree that will give the Church the Victory.

 

God’s Timing and Purposes Being Accomplished:1987  - 2007 Time of Restoration and activation of Prophets & Apostles10 years for the restoration of the Prophets and 10 years for the Apostles2007 The birthing of the Saints Movement, activating Kingdom Saints.2008 Third Church Reformation, Decreed and trumpeted in Heaven by the Angels.  Proclaimed on Earth by the Prophets and Apostles. The Saints of the three year old Saints Movement and the two year old Era of the Third Reformation will begin to walk and talk which means we will be able to demonstrate and communicate this to the world.  The Holy Spirit will continue to mature the saints until they are able to fulfill the purpose of the Saints Movement and Third Reformation of the Church.  When each of us understand God’s purpose in these areas then we know why we are going through certain processes and what we need to do to advance God’s kingdom and fulfill our personal life and ministry in Christ.

 

In 2010, like Esther, we receive authority from the King of Kings to write the decree.  King Jesus authorizes it by His signet ring which gives us the “The Right To Fight Back” to preserve our lives, families and possessions. We will then begin to prosper in our lives and ministries.  We are given the right to fight and destroy our enemies who have made their decree to destroy us.  Prepare for the greatest battle ever!  Rejoice for we have been prepared and Positioned to Win in 2010.

 

SEARCH THE 20:10's TO FIND GOD’S W0RD FOR 2010God spoke to me to search all the 20:10's in the Pentateuch (first five books of the Bible) and the story around the 10th verse of the 20th chapter of each book would reveal what God will be doing for us and what we should be doing in 2010.Genesis 20:10 The story of Abimelech restoring Sarah back to Abraham.  Abraham told Abimelech that Sarah was his sister (a half-truth she was his half-sister). Abimelech took her to his harem, but God spoke to him in a dream, told him that she was Abraham’s wife and that he would be a dead man if he touched Sarah. Abimelech restored Sarah to Abraham and blessed him with wealth, position and place in Canaan.2010 is the year that God is going to redeem and restore what we lost because of our fears, statements and decisions concerning family, ministry, property and finances.  God will sovereignly move on non- Christians to restore to God’s people and even bless them with wealth.  We will bless them like Abraham who prayed for Abimelech’s household who were made barren because of him taking Sarah.Exodus 20:10This is the chapter where God gave the 10 commandments to Moses.  Verse 10 is the 4th Commandment concerning keeping God’s Sabbath rest. 

 

In 2010 God will reveal more of His will and ways for His Church to be like Him and do his mighty kingdom works.  2010 will require that we enter God’s rest, which is complete confidence, faith and trust in Him, cease our own self-efforts and do the works of Christ.  To make it victoriously we must live and work in the joy of the Lord and peace of God that comes from 100% reliance and trust in Jesus Christ.Leviticus 20:10Chapter 20 of Leviticus covers all the different forms of immorality that requires the penalty of death, bareness or excommunication from God’s people. —adultery, fornication, homosexuality, incest, sex among relatives, sex with animals, any sexual activity other than between husband and wife.  In 2010 God will be exposing and judging all forms of immorality within the Church especially among church leaders.  Get rid of your sin before it gets rid of you.  God is intensifying the cleansing of His Church.Numbers 20:10This passage tells the story of the Israelites murmuring, complaining and accusing God’s leaders, Moses and Aaron, of not doing right by them.  God tells Moses to speak to the rock and God would supernaturally bring an abundant supply of water for Israel.  Instead of speaking to the rock Moses struck it twice out of frustration which was not according to God’s directives.

 

In 2010 God will bring a supernatural supply of provisions for His people.  Don’t look to the ground (self & natural) but look to the Rock (Christ’s supernatural supply from impossible places).In 2010 leaders will be tested on their obedience to follow God’s prophetic directives.  Moses failed the test and did it his way causing God to cancel his right to enter his inheritance in Canaan.  Many destinies will be determined this year by our decision and actions concerning following God’s word, will and way exactly without compromise.Murmurers, complainers and accusers of God’s appointed leadership will be judged and sentenced to wander in the wilderness till they die.

 

Deuteronomy 20:10This is the chapter on God’s principles for battles, warfare and directives for conquered lands.  We have entered our Canaan Land of the Third and Final Church Reformation.  We have “ites”that God says must be destroyed out of our lives, not just subdued but completely eradicated and replaced with the character of Christ.  Third Reformation Reformers must begin battling against the enemies of the kingdoms of God and replace them with the Kingdom of God.

 

ATTITUDE Saints must have toward BATTLE and WARFARE:Deuteronomy 20:1-4 “When you go out to battle against your enemies and see horses and chariots and people more numerous than you, do not be afraid of them; for the LORD your God is with you, who brought you up from the land of Egypt.  So it shall be when you are on the VERGE OF BATTLE, that the priest shall approach and speak to the people.  And he shall say to them, 'Hear, O Israel: TODAY, YOU ARE ON THE VERGE OF BATTLE with your enemies.  Do not let your heart faint, do not be afraid, and do not tremble or be terrified because of them.  For the LORD YOUR GOD is He who goes WITH YOU to FIGHT FOR YOU AGAINST YOUR ENEMIES, TO SAVE YOU!'”This is applicable to the saints in 2010 for we are on the verge of battle to fight and overcome spirits of poverty, sickness, passivity and a host of opposing demonic enemies who are assigned to keep us from possessing our promised land, prospering and demonstrating the Kingdom of God.

 

Those who are the qualified and unqualified to go to battle win the war against the enemy:Verse 8 says those who are fearful and faint of heart are not allowed to go to the battle, “Let him go and return to his house, lest the heart of his brethren faint like his heart.”This is the reason we have had people leaving prophetic apostolic churches who believe and practice spiritual warfare.  They are leaving and going back to denominational churches or seeker-friendly churches who do not believe or practice spiritual warfare.   God’s Gideon-300 Reformers.   God gave the same commission to Gideon when he was preparing to go to War.  He told all that were fearful and afraid to go home and 22,000 out of the 32,000 who had originally responded to the trumpet call for war left leaving 10,000.  The 10,000 were tested at the river and 300 met the requirements.  The 300 were then Positioned to Win.  Like Joshua, all who have passed the two tests of fearfulness and selfishness are now being equipped and Positioned to Win in 2010.Verse 10 begins the directives of war against the nations outside of Canaan and those inside Israel’s promised land of Canaan.  Outside Canaan, Israel could make peace with them, but inside Canaan they were to kill every human being. 

 

God is saying in 2010 what is outside of us we can make peace with, but what is inside of us that is not Christ’s character and nature must be utterly destroyed.2 Chronicles 20:10 The Lord lead me to one more book beyond the five of the Pentateuch, 2 Chronicles. God is going to let us destroy enemies that were passed by before, but now they are coming against us to cast us out of our God given possessions which God has given us to possess.The present truth Church has been facing this great host which we have seemingly had no power against.  But now in 2010 God is going to do the same for us as he did for Jehoshaphat—Give prophetic encouragement and strategy for winning and supernaturally fight for us by confusing the enemy and causing them to destroy each other. 

 

Our responsibility is to gather the spoil and strip the enemy of all he has.Deuteronomy 20:20 says, “Believe God and you shall be established, believe His prophets and you shall prosper”God wants us to go over our prophecies concerning what God has promised us and any directives that were given.  Follow the directives and decree each word promised as the true word of God to us, then continually make faith confessions until all our prophetic promises are prospering in our lives.  Let God be true and every contradicting evidence a lie.  Romans 3:4 says, “Let God be true but every man a liar.  As it is written, that you may be justified in you words, and may overcome when you are judged.”

Word for 2010 by Jane Hamon

 

Out of Captivity

 

I believe that the Church is poised on the brink of a brand new season.  Just as 2010 begins a new decade, I believe that we are turning a corner and entering into a time  of reformation and awakening that is in many ways similar to when the children of Israel came out of Bablylonian captivity.  There are new battles ahead and new ground to be taken, however, it will all be towards the purpose of building and establishing God’s Kingdom in the earth in a whole new way.

 

2010 will be a year of the wind of the Lord blowing afresh and anew to prepare us for this new season of reformation and awakening.  After Jesus was crucified at Passover and rose from the dead three days later, he was seen of men for 40 days walking on the earth.  Then he ascended to heaven and told His disciples to go back to Jerusalem to wait for the outpouring of the Holy Spirit - the Promise of the Father.  10 days later, when the day of Pentecost was fully come the house where they were assembled was filled with the sound of a rushing mighty wind.  This wind brought the empowerment of the Holy Spirit and the birth of the Church.  This will be a season of outpouring and birthing of the Holy Spirit.

 

I recently heard Apostle Gale Sheehan share what he was sensing for this New Year and new season and I really bore witness with it.  He said this would be a year when God would send the second wind.  The second wind is a term used by runners who after running a distance begin to become weak and exhausted and about to give up.  Then they get their "second wind" and suddenly get a burst of energy and strength to go the distance.  This is where the church has been.  Many are weak and exhausted from the battles of the last season, but God is sending His wind of refreshing to give us strength, renewed energy and fresh vision for the new day. (Click Here to read Gale Sheehan's Word of the Lord.)

 

A key verse for this time will be from John 10:10:  The thief comes to steal, kill and destroy, but I have come that you might have life and life more abundantly. The word "theif" comes from the Greek word "klepto" as in kleptomaniac.  He loves to steal us blind, rob from us and destroy everything that is good and purposeful in our lives.  The Greek word that is translated "more abundantly" means "that which is superabundant in quantity and superior in quality, exceeding abundantly, above and beyond." We need to shake off the lack that has tried to stranglehold our vision in the last several years and believe for God's superabundance in every area of our lives in 2010.

 

As our friend Chuck Pierce annually points out, the Jewish calendar year begins in the month of September.  This is the year 5770 according to that record. This is the season of AYIN which is a time for the triumph of the church, a time to possess your land and dig new wells, a time to see in a new way.  I believe this is significant as 70 is the number associated with the time of the end of God’s judgment on Judah, the end of Babylonian captivity and the beginning of a brand new season of building and restoring all that was lost during that time.

 

Similarly, on our Gregorian calendar, this is the year 2010.  In scripture the number 10 denotes judgment fulfilled and a new season beginning.  How we enter this new season will largely depend on how we responded to the testing process of God in the last season.  Some of the significant  indicators of the number 10 in scripture are as follows.

 

a) The 10 Commandments – these were the standard of moral requirements by while Israel was to be judged.

 

b) The 10 plagues of Egypt – were God’s instruments of judgment against Egypt at  the appointed time.  I believe this is an appointed time of God’s judgment against His enemies.  As was the case in Egypt when the pre-determined 400 years of bondage were concluded, things got worse for God’s people right before their deliverance came.  I believe many have been in this season of the darkness before the dawn.  Those who position themselves in faith for the new season will see God’s mighty hand of miracles to bring deliverance and pave the way to the promise.

 

c) 10 is a number that represents the hands of God…..10 fingers – fingers that wrote the 10 commandments, fingers that wrote on the walls of the Babylonian palace, hands that destroyed His enemies.  This will be a year that we will see the manifestation of God’s right hand on the righteous – a hand of blessing, power and favor.  It will also be a year to see God’s left hand manifested against evil and those that oppose His cause – the hand of dishonor or cursing.  A key verse for this year will be concerning the hand of God bringing people out of captivity:

 

Ex 3:20-22  So I will stretch out My hand and strike Egypt with all My wonders which I will do in its midst; and after that he will let you go. 21 And I will give this people favor in the sight of the Egyptians; and it shall be, when you go, that you shall not go empty-handed. 22 But every woman shall ask of her neighbor, namely, of her who dwells near her house, articles of silver, articles of gold, and clothing; and you shall put them on your sons and on your daughters. So you shall plunder the Egyptians."

 

Ex 15:6  "Your right hand, O Lord, has become glorious in power; Your right hand, O Lord, has dashed the enemy in pieces.

 

God does not just release His hand against our enemies but will often ask us what He asked Moses when He said, “What is in your hand?”  The  hand represents power and authority as well as our ability put into action.  God wants to place His hand over our hands and release new positions of authority and new resources of power to be utilized for our victory and deliverance.  Again, this involves the right hand of blessing and favor and authority.  The right hand is also the hand that holds the sword, the Word of the Lord. There is a new prophetic sharpness coming to those who will take the time to press in and listen on a new level.  The left hand is the hand that holds the shield - the shield of faith.  This will be a year of faith expansion as we wield the sword of the Word of the Lord.

 

d) 10 is the prevailing number in measuring the tabernacle, the temple and New Jerusalem.  This will be a year of measuring and aligning to proper structure and standards.

 

e) 10 is the number used by Jesus as a standard of measuring our right response to God’s dealings:

a. 10 virgins – 5 fell asleep and 5 entered into the celebration

 

b. 10 talents – one invested poorly and was judged severely

 

c. 10 cities – the reward given to those that invest their talents wisely

 

d. 10 lepers – only one returned to give thanks after being healed.

 

f) 10 is the primary number tied to financial matters as God emphasizes the covenant tithe (10%).  Malachi 3 tells  us of the reward and judgment according to how we respond to the tithe.  The word tithe comes from the Hebrew word asar –  to accumulate, the tithe from the root word ashar – to accumulate to the extent of the digits (fingers), specifically to grow and make rich.  This will be a year of seeing God’s covenant promises fulfilled as we keep covenant with God through our tithe.

 

g) 10 continues to denote judgment on His enemies:

 

a. 10 toes on Nebuchadnezzar’s statue which are destroyed by a “kingdom of iron”.  Dan 2:41-44 – Iron is a symbol of God’s judgment

 

b. 10 horned beast in Revelations 7 (representing 10 kings, nations or kingdoms) the 11^th arose from the midst and made war with the saints and prevailed against them until the Ancient of Days came and judgment was made in favor of the saints!

 

Out of Captivity

Judah was held in Babylonian captivity for 70 years.  70 is 10 times 7.  7 is the number of completion, perfection and covenant.  God’s dealings with Judah were not because of His hatred towards them, but rather because of His great love.  His dealings with His Church have been out of covenant, and the time of completion is now at hand.

When the fullness of time came and it was time for captivity to end the following things occurred which I believe parallel what God has been doing in this last season and will do in this next season.

 

1) Release is preceeded by the intercession of the prophets who have discerned the times.

 

In the 1980’s God restored the ministry office of the prophet.  Shortly afterwards the prayer movement began which has continued the last 20 years.  People began to pray believing that God could save not just individuals but cities and nations as well.  Prior to Israel’s release from Egypt God raised up the prophet Moses who heard God say it was time for captivity to end.  Before it was all over, Pharoah’s heart got even harder towards the people of Israel and made their lives even more miserable.  But then they were released.   Prior to the end of Babylonian captivity it was the prophet Daniel who read the words of Jeremiah and began to repent and pray regarding the freedom of Judah. (Jer 25:11; Dan 9:2) Then along came Belshazzar – the most arrogant of kings.  It actually got worse before it got better.  But then we see God’s hand- His fingers writing on the wall – and judgment came upon the enemies of God as favor was released on God’s people.

 

Intercessors need to shake off the weariness of the last season and even the doubt that has arisen.  Since many saw things get worse, a cynicism has arisen that has caused some to doubt that their prayers have an effect on the earth realm.  Arise Intercessors.  This is your greatest hour!

 

2) A Decree is Made by the Authority in the Land for Release

 

This has been a season of apostles, prophets and even the saints realizing the power of spiritual legislation through releasing a decree.  It has the power to shift everything. Pharoah made a decree of release for Israel and Cyrus made a decree of release for Judah.  I believe that the Church is going to gain tremendous favor from some civil leaders that will advance the Kingdom cause.  Just as Pharoah and Cyrus weren’t righteous men but worked with the purposes of God, they didn’t just release the people from captivity but also added that the people be given wealth and finances as they went.  I believe there will be those who put their money where their mouth is and actually release finances for the Kingdom.  I even feel that President Obama is going to end up making some decrees that unknown to him, will promote the cause of the Kingdom and even designate some finances towards the cause of reformation.

 

3) Fathers (Apostles) put in their proper place.

 

One crucial element of bringing people out of captivity is the promotion and position of the fathers.  In Moses’ day his leaders, Dathan, Korah and Abiram and the chief princes of Israel ended up fashioning the golden calf and leading Israel into idolatry against God and rebellion against Moses.  It was largely because of the failed leadership of those serving under Moses that ended up resulting in Israel’s failure to enter in to their promised land and causing them to wander in the wilderness until they died.

 

On the other hand, in the book of Ezra one of the first things to occur after Cyrus’s decree is that the fathers were put back in position.  They led the people back to Jerusalem and immediately began re-laying the foundation of the temple. Zerubbabel was their leader.  His name means “seed of Babylon, to flow away from confusion dispersion of confusion”  The Zerubbabels are arising and breaking the yoke of confusion that has caused the cause of the Church to become watered down through religion, fear of man and being politically correct!

 

4) The Father’s (apostles) rebuilt the foundations and ushered in a sound of worship.

 

In Ezra 3 we see the father’s (heads of the father’s  houses) organizing the people for restoration and reformation.  The last 30 years have been spent restoring prophets, apostles and saints to their place so they could be mobilized to build.  It’s time to build.  As in the days of Nehemiah, we will build with a sword in one hand and a building tool in the other.  The sword will be the Word of the Lord and the building tool will be the apostolic strategy to advance.

 

They also ushered in a new sound of worship in the midst of the city of God as they were in the restoration process.  There will continue to be new sounds of worship released with an impact of breakthrough, miracles and the power of the presence of God like never before.

 

5) Contending with Unrighteous Decrees

 

Just as release from captivity come through decrees so also, delay and disappointment comes through the decrees of the enemy as well.  In Ezra 4 Ahasuerus issued some decrees that halted the building process of restoring the temple. According to Browns-Drivers-Briggs the name Ahasuerus means “I will be silent and poor”.  I believe this is one of the spirits we are contending with during this season, one that will attempt to rob the voice of the Church as well as bring us back into an impoverished state of captivity.  Remember, we have been released from the last season of captivity, but we must choose to hear the Word of the Lord through the prophets to reject the decrees of darkness that will attempt to hold us in our old state.

 

6) A New Release of Wealth!

 

This will be one of the most important aspects of this new season.  In both examples from scripture great wealth was released as the people of God came out of captivity.  When Israel was released from Egypt, they didn’t come out empty-handed but took the wealth of their Egyptian neighbors and put it on their sons and daughters.  This is our challenge to think generationally regarding the new wealth creation and wealth transfer season we are coming in to.

 

Likewise, when Judah came out of captivity Cyrus decreed the release of wealth for them to rebuild as did the second Darius and Artaxerses.  There was a continual release of wealth to accomplish the rebuilding of the temple.  It might also be noted that this temple was twice the size as Solomon’s temple and was constructed primarily with Babylonian wealth.  Look for opportunities that will release the wealth for this new season of advancing.

 

Unfortunately, when Israel came out of Egypt they took all the Egyptian wealth and used it to build the golden calf of idolatry.  We must be careful to realize that as God releases wealth in this new season it is for the purpose of building and advancing the Kingdom.  Great strategy is needed to do the right thing with the wealth that comes in, lest we use it to erect monuments to ourselves or to fall into the hands of Mammon and begin being enslaved by the very wealth God has blessed us with.

 

The number 70 is mentioned as the time not only of Babylonian captivity, but also 70 years of judgment against Tyre.

 

Isa 23:17-18  At the end of seventy years, the Lord will deal with Tyre. She will return to her hire as a prostitute and will ply her trade with all the kingdoms on the face of the earth. 18 Yet her profit and her earnings will be set apart for the Lord; they will not be stored up or hoarded. Her profits will go to those who live before the Lord, for abundant food and fine clothes.

 

This will truly be a time when the kingdoms of the world will begin to serve the kingdoms of God.  In both the Babylonian and Tyre examples we see a depiction of the finances controlled by Satan.  Both of these kingdoms are illustrations of the kingdom of darkness in the earth.  Isaiah calls Lucifer the “king of Babylon” and Ezekiel 28 calls him the “prince of Tyre”.  Both indicate a shift after 70 years, when the wealth of wickedness gets put into the hands of the righteous.

 

7) A Governmental Shift takes place

 

This will be a surprising year of major governmental shifts.  In Ezra 7, post-captivity government was restored to the land of Israel.  The unrighteous were shifted out and the righteous were set in.  Even the battle over the courts will see new life as it was commanded to set in righteous judges in the land.

 

Ezra 7:25-28

25 And you, Ezra, in accordance with the wisdom of your God, which you possess, appoint magistrates and judges to administer justice to all the people of Trans-Euphrates — all who know the laws of your God. And you are to teach any who do not know them. 26 Whoever does not obey the law of your God and the law of the king must surely be punished by death, banishment, confiscation of property, or imprisonment.  27 Praise be to the Lord, the God of our fathers, who has put it into the king's heart to bring honor to the house of the Lord in Jerusalem in this way 28 and who has extended his good favor to me before the king and his advisers and all the king's powerful officials. Because the hand of the Lord my God was on me, I took courage and gathered leading men from Israel to go up with me.  NIV

 

In summary, this will be the beginning of a new era, a new season of advancement for the purposes of God.  In America, we will continue to see shaking as the war over wealth, over worship and over power structures continues.  However, we must battle from a position of personal and corporate freedom knowing that we have been set free from the captivity of the last season and released into new opportunities for today.  We can choose to align with fear and idolatry as Israel did and end up wandering in the wilderness for 40 years or we can embrace God’s promise for a new day and see awakening, restoration and reformation that will last for generations as Judah did.  It is our choice how we respond.  Will we be one of the 5 wise virgins and enter all the blessings of God or one of the 5 foolish virgins and miss our day of appointment?  The choice is ours.
