Over the last year we have what I would call waves of God's presence. From
the gold dust thing to gold teeth, healings and also hardship and division.
The internal attack has subsided and the last few weeks we have been
experiencing an increase in the anointing.
So since mid-October we have started up healing services on Sunday nights.
There have been some really great healings; graves disease, backs healed,
internal organs and deafness. But I feel that the lord wants to take it to
another level. The gold dust thing that had seemed to slow down is back and
there have been more that have had angelic visions. This one lady had
vision of an angel with a scroll saying "GO TO WAR". Also there were words
about a red horse. Rev. 6:4 There was a word of knowledge last night that
someone in the group had a horse that needed healing, two people came
forward that both had a red horse, so we prayed over prayer cloths and sent
them home with them. I believe that the Lord is calling His war-horses into
battle but they are sick and in need of healing.
We are up here in Whitefish Montana, the name of the church is Christian
Life Fellowship. If the Lord gives you any insight for us that would be
nice but if you could pray for us that would be great.
Here is a report just received from two visitors to our church:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We had a good train trip to Montana. Spent some time with old friends from
Arizona (we used to go to synagogue together). They are care taking/low
renting a place on a lake about an hour out of Whitefish. While we were
there, they took us to a church they attend. We met the pastor on Friday,
then on Sunday morning we got there a half an hour before the service
began. We got to join in with the pastor and a few others to pray for that
days services and for the ministry in that area. It was a time of inviting
the Holy Spirit to freely come and work in our hearts, lives and in the
meeting. The service was excellent.
People responded to the message and the music. Something happened that I
had not experienced before. During the music we were situated to one side
close to the back. People were still moving about in a somewhat relaxed
fashion. Now for the last 35 years or so I've had a sensitivity to perfumes
and similar fragrances. when ladies would be in the same area with strong
perfume, I would have to back away or I would experience my air passages
restricting. Diane uses unscented laundry soap and other household items.
Anyway, as we were worshiping I smelled a fragrance and thought "wow,
somebody just put on some strong perfume", and then it dissipated. When the
message began there were people still moving around in the back and since I
wanted to be able to focus on the message, Diane and I moved up to the
second row. There wasn't anyone in front of us and only one person directly
behind us.
Then all of a sudden I smelled the fragrance again. I turned to see if it
was coming from behind but it wasn't. I looked all around and there wasn't
anyone else close. I breathed in through my nostrils and the fragrance was
so strong that I thought it was going to give me a sinus headache, but, it
didn't. I tried to determine what the fragrance was but it wasn't anything
that I could remember. So since it wasn't affecting me physically I just
enjoyed it. At times it would seem to waft away but then it would return. I
have heard of this phenomenon, but I haven't taken the time to see if there
is a reference in the word yet. It will be interesting to see if there are.
Here is something I have noticed lately: there are a lot of churches that
are getting smaller. There seems to be a down sizing, maybe a falling away.
They use to be considerably larger, for example, A church with an
attendance of over a hundred is now thirty people or less.
Now some are that way because of not operating correctly, but others who
are trying to operate according to the word (5 fold) are also getting
smaller. At the evening service there were several prophecies and words
concerning the Lord raising up an army. I got a picture of an army being
assembled. Immediately I got another picture of one being culled out as
Gideon's army was. And then I saw that those churches who are operating to
the best of their ability along the guidelines set forth in the Word are
being culled just like the army of Gideon. In other words, I believe they
are being pruned back so that the true believers can be prepared for coming
spiritual warfare. I also expect there is going to be an influx of new and
restored believers. I feel that the time of the organization or
denominational church is over and that believers will meet together without
those separate banners.
