The Power of Pentecost

Just this week, I was reminded of the how powerful and how significant the day of Pentecost really was. Jesus said to wait and not to go anywhere or do anything until the Holy Spirit arrives, and I believe it must’ve been pretty important for Jesus to say that. When Holy Spirit arrived and filled everyone so that fire appeared over them and they all spake with tongues, and I emphasize the word all, it was of great importance and significance. No one was left out, they all needed this equipping to be his witnesses and to do his works. When they were baptized in the Spirit, they were endowed with power from almighty God. They received everything they needed that day to be his witnesses in all the earth and they knew it. They boldly poured out onto the street and immediately began to manifest this power of God. Peter, who had once been afraid for his life before and denied Christ, received great boldness to preach the gospel in the streets of Jerusalem. This was the beginning of the church age as 3000 souls were added to the church In one day. If being filled with the Spirit weren’t important, he wouldn’t have said it. If tongues hadn’t been important, they wouldn’t have been given them. I had the occasion to arise this past week, where someone needed healing and then deliverance from demons, and then they were filled with the Baptism in the Holy Spirit and speaking with tongues. It didn’t even happen in church but it happened outside on a porch and It was the last thing I expected to be doing late one evening. I prayed in Jesus name and operated in his authority, but about 3/4’s of the time, I was praying in tongues and I found it was crucial to me as one thing after another happened in succession and the Holy Spirit gave me instruction as I did so, and prayed through me to accomplish this great work. Looking back now, I know I couldn’t have done so without the gift of tongues and obviously, the power of the Spirit to bring it to pass. If we are to bring this great harvest of souls in, we are gonna need to have a revelation of Pentecost and what we have really been equipped with. I believe this will happen on an increasing scale as God works to restore and reform his church. I only just realized today that this Sunday is Pentecost Sunday, so the timeliness of this miracle is not lost on me. God is a God of times and seasons and the season of the harvest is upon us, and I believe that God is bringing back the power of Pentecost to his church to accomplish this great end time harvest.

Raising up the Evangelist

The topic of evangelism has been on my heart for sometime as I know that I was stunted in that area for a long time as result of the spiritual abuse I’d went through when I was younger. Also, I had no idea where I could send someone where they would be in a healthy church environment. Now this was a grief to me because when I was first saved and not indoctrinated in these winds of the doctrines of men, I was a soul winner and a witness for the Lord wherever I went. I’ve been longing to enter into that again but I realized that the church has been in need of restoration and reformation in order for me to get back to that phase. Just this week, the Lord sent me a dream where I saw myself lying in the secret place of the most high God and it was like I was also in the middle of a church service. I heard myself preach an evangelistic message and after I did this I was literally raised up to my feet…I didn’t get up like someone normally would but I was raised up like an unseen force raised me up. Then I saw myself speaking to the pastor there during the service and then it was over. I felt the Lord was saying, “Now, I am raising up the evangelist.” I found myself the evening following the dream at this service and giving the message to †his pastor that God is raising up †he evangelist. Today, while in a Sunday service in a different church, a minister rose up and delivered a word from the Lord about an encounter he had last night concerning the fire of evangelism returning to the church and that it was going to be as easy as breathing for us to do. His word was lengthier and was a great encouragement to me that I was indeed hearing from the Lord and that what I had been praying for is now about to come to pass. I long to be a fruitful vine again in the Lord and win souls for him as a means of expressing my love and gratitude to him for what he has done for me. Also, I know what it’s like to be lost and lonely and without hope and I want others to experience the goodness and salvation of the Lord as well. I believe that this word is for the body and bride of Christ at large so those of you who seek the Lord, so don’t be surprised if you find this happening to you as well. I’m excited about all that the Lord is doing in his people.

Here we go again,
We’ll I’ve been sitting on a word for a while on the topic of restoration. I’ve shared it in a small group setting and with a few people here and there but not recently on a prophetic group, and since I’m new, that would’ve been kind of impossible wouldn’t it? Anyway, I’m so glad to have this outlet now. Because when God speaks to you it is like a fire shut up in the bones that needs to find a way out and and outlet to do so. I’ve been trying to hold back some because I don’t want to sling so many words out there so fast, but God keeps starting it and what’s a sister gonna do but comply. Generally, I look for him to start signaling me in some way and he just leads me in my baby steps at times, but that’s okay because he knows we need to crawl before we can walk. This week, Lana Vawser had been mentioning restore in some of her words and Ana Werner as well and so It just makes me feel better when I know some of the prophets are hearing what I’m hearing and it gives me more encouragement to share with you what he has shown me. I’m just giving you my little piece of the puzzle that the Lord shared with me so I’m thinking maybe some of you have heard and seen some things as well that you could contribute.
Back during the summer I had an encounter with the Lord where I was in this darkened place. Every time that I see this place I know that it is the secret place of the most high God. So of course, you know that It’s a hidden place where the Lord shows us the hidden things and reveals his secrets and I think it’s pretty cool really. He showed me this street that I used to live on in a town called “Eden.” Now if you go back there today, it is in a sorry state and it is dilapidated along this street now, but in the night vision, I was seeing all the houses completely restored! And not only that, but they were way better than before! So I know my mouth had to be hanging open at this point but I expect God sees that a lot out of me, so what’s new, but I was just amazed when I saw it thinking how on earth does it look so brand new? It was like the ultimate episode of a “Fixer Upper” show…lol…The houses looked very expensive but it’s not the kind of street that would appeal to me long term although I realize that some people prefer right in town as opposed to out in the burbs or the country. So I just felt such amazement as I looked at the homes. I also thought it interesting that the fall of man happened in the garden of Eden and that God would show me this street being fully Restored plus More in a little town call Eden. Glory to God! Jesus blood paid it all and he won back everything the devil stole in Eden! Amen! Sorry just got a little excited…lol…anyway, I drifted back off to sleep thinking about it. After I got up the next morning and got into my word, the Lord took me to the book of Nehemiah. In it we see where Nehemiah’s brother had come back from Jerusalem with some of the Jews. The report was not good, the walls were half torn down, the Gates were burned and the houses weren’t any better. Nehemiah was so grieved in heart and he wept and fasted and repented before the Lord for himself, his family and his people. Nehemiah knew that sin was the cause and that genuine, true repentance before the Lord was the cure. Nehemiah served as the kings cup bearer in Babylon which was an important job considering he had to protect the king from any harm through poisoning and such. Nehemiah was sharp, he knew that if he wanted favor with the king of Babylon, that he would first need favor with God. Because he sought the Lord, we see that Nehemiah received favor from both God and King. We know that he was granted leave to go to Jerusalem and was given supplies and such, to repair and restore Jerusalem. Now Although there were enemies lurking about and trying to stop it, and there will always be that here on earth, Nehemiah kept the focus on the prophesy concerning restoration and kept the vision alive and saw it through to completion. I believe that this is the pattern that we need to follow to receive what the Lord showed me concerning his message of Restoration. He wants to bless us because he loves us and because he wants us to use those blessings in bringing in the harvest. I so believe that this time is upon us. I believe that many are seeking the Lord like never before and that Restore plus More is God’s plan for us. I can see a future within 10 years of now where peoples spiritual lives are restored better than ever before and families are restored better than ever before and financial blessings are restored better than ever before. I know it seems hard to believe, but that is God’s intent from what I was shown. I was truly amazed and thinking how is all this possible but we know that with our God, all things are possible. So for my part, I feel like I need to do what I heard Patricia Bootsma say today which was, “Be a prophet first in your own home and then elsewhere. Prophesy to the prophesy that the Lord has shown you and decree it into existence.” So simple a word but so challenging at the same time. So let’s engage then, I prophesy Restore plus More to our families, Restore plus More to the churches, Restore plus More to the lost and dying world around us and I believe that as the spiritual lives are restored, that the natural will follow and we will see a physical manifestation of that which has been done in the spirit. Restore plus More Lord, Restore plus More. Amen

Hi there again,
I have something else I’d like to share with you guys since I’ve received such a warm and kind reception. Thank you all so much for that. I was recently asked to pray for our public schools and I’ve been seeing more people do so of late. I find this greatly encouraging to see. It’s one thing to talk about the problems but an entirely other thing to really pray. This past summer, I had an encounter with the Lord concerning the public schools and really It was a major shift in my thinking as God was correcting my thinking and ordering me to set my face aright. In the encounter, I saw myself riding in a car up to a public High School and I was mad because I was having to take my grandson to a public school. As I came up to the school, I looked up and read the words and heard them simultaneously, It said, “Hartley High School.” I recalled the name because a year before in WV, there had been a revival that broke out in the southern part of the state that hit the schools and the whole area before it could be contained. The evangelist that had played a role in it was named Matt Hartley, so I linked the two together immediately. I looked around the school steps and I saw a large number of people on them, I saw a minister and his friend dressed in 70’s style with the 70’s hair and the thought that struck me was revival because they looked like they came out of the Jesus movement. As I turned back to my right, there was Jesus just up the steps gesturing and saying to me, “You all need to be challenging the liberal powers in the public schools.” I was surprised because up to that point, I didn’t care if the whole system went under and the Christian schools took over. It just shows how wrong we can be until we get revelation on a subject and God speaks to us. I looked back around and back up at the door and I saw someone at the door swinging it open and telling everyone to come on in. That was the end of the encounter and what I had seen. So the takeaways for me were this. God wants to take the public schools back. I realized my sons of thunder thinking was not in keeping with his redemptive plan, after all, he is mighty to save. So we are supposed to be engaging In warfare, 2 Cor 10: 4, “For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds.” We have to challenge in the spirit and pray for the open doors into the schools and engage the schools in the natural like Matt Hartley did and boldly walk through them. The high school that I saw had originally been named after the Druids and in the encounter, it had been given a new name. I felt that was significant as well because I believe God was Identifying specifically the spirits behind the liberal powers that we are supposed to bind and take authority over. I believe the 70’s vibe was God telling me that we are to pray and decree for revival as that is his intention. I believe the open door was for his people to enter through and that he wants to send a tsunami of revival to the public schools to the extent that even the names of schools and teams will be changed to reflect his glory and to honor him. The fact that Jesus said, “You all” and not just me, indicates to me that I am not the only guilty party. I am definitely guilty of thinking way to small and of thinking God to small and really, of myself to small. We need to see ourselves as his legal team to execute judgement in the earth, to decree and bring his will to pass using the authority that he died to retrieve for us on the cross. So now my vision is much bigger than it was before and I am in awe of his plan and shaking my head at the way I used to think. God sure knows how to correct us. So I would like to ask others to join me in prayer for our public schools because his plans are so much greater than we ever could conceive on our own. He wants the public schools back, he wants to seek and save the lost and overturn the tables on the enemy. God is so amazing. He really is mighty to save. God is so good.

Hello Everyone,
I hadn’t planned on releasing anymore words so soon but God clearly has other ideas. I have been sitting on a word and have been unsure as to when the time would be for me to release on a large scale what Jesus has said and done for me but it is clear that this is the time. The other day I was reading a passage out of one of Kevin Zadai’s books where he talks about 4 ways that Jesus heals emotional wounds, one of the ways is where Jesus waves his hand over someone’s heart. Today, I just read a word by Lana Vawser where she had an encounter with the Lord and saw the Lord placing his hand on people’s hearts and healing them of emotional trauma. I got to say, both of these are right on and after two confirmations, I believe it is time to share what happened to me. Back this past May, I found myself still struggling with trauma related to spiritual abuse that I had lived with for years. There was a long time that I couldn’t pray or read my bible or anything because the pain was just so excruciating to me from it all. I felt like I meant nothing to God and what was worse I was having to fake it to make it in front of my kids and try to hide from them how bad things were because I wanted them to be saved. All I wanted for was for them to be raised with a Godly heritage and instead, I felt like the walking dead on the inside and had nothing to give them so I tried to put on a happy face and keep going and hope they didn’t see through me. I sought help and went to a Christian psychiatrist and I had received counseling and a lot of it. I had also thoroughly studied the subject and even written a college paper on it so I received a measure of healing through those activities. The psychiatrist pulled me in after a year with him and talked with me and asked me how I was managing and where I was at and I told him honestly, and then he informed me that since I had come in, he had experienced an influx of Christians experiencing the same problem and even asked me for my research as he thought that it would be beneficial in helping him with his patients. After some time, I got to where I could pray and talk to God some, but nothing like where I was when I was first saved and I wanted that back so much. I eventually was able to read my bible and incorporate prayer more after the Lord sent me a dream and compelled me to really try again. So fast forward to last May I found myself very discouraged because I realized that I still had traumatic reactions to triggers related to the abuse. I managed to reason with myself but it took about two months for me to push through it and the day I did I had an encounter with the Lord that has forever changed me. I saw Jesus and he appeared as my groom and then also he was my doctor, he reached over and laid his hand over my heart and I was thinking what in the world is he doing? Then suddenly I felt the greatest love that I ever felt wash over me and I felt that I was his beloved and that I was the most special person in the world to him and that I was the most blessed bride ever and I was just filled with his love and I felt like a queen. Then he says now I have to go prepare for the wedding, but I’ll be back and I want you to prepare too. Then I came out of it and I said “Lord, was that really you?” Then he did it again and repeated the visitation to me and I was like, “Oh yeah, that was him alright.” It was just so incredulous and I wish I could describe with words better what Jesus did for me that day, but sometimes some things just have to be experienced rather than taught. I asked Jesus why he did that for me and he told me that this trauma had been a barrier to the intimacy that he wanted with me and he removed it and healed me in an instant. Counseling and study could only take me so far, it couldn’t heal me from the trauma of it, but Jesus could and did that day. Just feeling how much he loved me as his groom and that he was my doctor who laid his hand over my heart and healed me was just an unbelievably amazing experience. Now, I have the joy of the Lord back. He helped me see scriptures more clearly that I missed before. He showed me the meaning of visions and dreams that I’d had years ago but didn’t understand and my calling and assignments. I am in my second honeymoon with the Lord and it is better than the first and I am wiser this time around so that someone is not gonna pull the wool over this girls eyes again like what happened to me when I was a baby Christian. God is ready to heal others who have suffered from the trauma of abuse. He walked me through it and there was a time, that I didn’t think it was ever gonna happen but it did. He is calling out to the dry bones from the bodies that were used up like an old horse and left to die. He’s calling to them and saying, “Come four winds and breath upon these slain that they may live again.” You thought your time was over, but like Moses in the desert after much time has elapsed, now your time has come and you haven’t seen anything yet of all the good that the Lord your God will do for you and with you. God is raising up this group of people who will be father’s and mother’s to those who will come in during this last harvest. Those who will be the Eliakim’s of this generation, Reference Isaiah 22:20-23, who will have a father’s heart for the newborns and who will protect and care for the little lambs. Who will instruct them in sound doctrine, the doctrine of Christ and who will warn them against the doctrines of men. I pray now that what God did for me, will be done exponentially for everyone in need of healing from the trauma of spiritual abuse and any kind of abuse for that matter. I ask you Jesus to lay your hand on the heart of everyone in need of this healing and for it to be done in an instant, like it was for me and for the Love of Jesus, our groom, to come in like a flood so that all may know the Joy of the Lord and the Love of the Lord as never before. Let everyone be healed from trauma completely, in the name of Jesus I pray, amen.

My name is Tracy Gray and I would like to share what the Lord recently spoke to me.
On Feb 8, 2018, I was on my way to see a taping of Sid Roth’s, It’s Supernatural in Charlotte. I received an invite to go see Randy Clark and Robert Henderson there. I was tired because I had just worked all night and would have to work that night but I was so hungry for the Lord and his moving in my life and to grow and receive impartation, and so I went anyway. My son was with me to help with the driving. So on the way there, I saw a white SUV pass by with the numbers 222 on it, and suddenly, Holy Spirit just spoke to me so clearly, “remember this number, it is gonna be important.” I was like wow, that’s the first time that ever happened to me with numbers; and then I kinda forgot about it for the moment. Well the taping and the mentoring that I received was just so worth the sacrifice and I was just thanking God for it. Well, in no time at all God started speaking about those numbers. I was listening to an old Bob Jones, video and he began to talk about Isaiah 22:22 and the series of 2’s struck me and I suddenly remembered the number on the SUV. Bob began to speak about the fact that Shebnah would removed from his place and Eliakim, who had a fathers heart would be elevated which preceded Isaiah 22:22 which says, “I will place the Key of the House of David on his shoulder; what he opens, no one can close; what he closes, no one can open.” He then began to elaborate on authority and open doors and such. Flash forward to the New Testament to Matt 18:19 where Jesus is speaking to Peter and it says, “I will give you the keys of the Kingdom of Heaven, and whatever you bind on earth is already bound in heaven and whatever you loose on earth is loosed in heaven.” Both of these scriptures are really interrelated. Then, in the same day’s time, 2 other prophetic voices that I ran across began speaking the same scripture, Dutch Sheets and Cindy Jacobs, and they were speaking of it’s significance in relation to the day of their Turnaround conference in Washington DC. God just quickened to me that this date was very significant as well because of the 222 number. Now, I was puzzling over God using a set of numbers on me for the first time and then he reminded me that just a few weeks before, I had listened to a testimony of Bob Jones, again, and he had been given dates and events from the Lord which had all come to pass and I thought, “Wow, that would be so cool for that to happen.” I suddenly realized God had been listening in on that and he was just being the God he is and giving me a desire of my heart as a surprise. I love it when he does that because he knows that I love his surprises. Now, I am still processing this word and perhaps some of you may see other things but I came away with some takeaways. So I realized, God was pinpointing this day as being significant and the message that he was trying to convey was just as important. I felt a very weighty significance on it unlike I’ve ever felt. So much so, that I posted these things on my Facebook account as I received confirmations and as I attempted to process the word, because I felt it was absolutely God speaking so I was willing to put myself out there because I wanted to see if anyone was picking up on it as well, and also, I didn’t want to be a Johnny come lately and say, yeah God spoke to me before the fact that something big is about to happen without proof. Anyone can do that. So I would encourage anyone that doubts to check out my Facebook page and see that this is the case. You might have to scroll back a few posts. Lol. Well 2/21 hit and Billy Graham died and I knew that this marked a significant shift in the spirit which obviously, would affect the natural. Then the prophets words starting getting posted about Billy Grahams’s death and that it was gonna be a sign that marks the beginning of the 3rd Great Awakening etc. Also it made sense to me, that there would be many more Shebnah’s yet to be brought low in every sphere and in the 7 mountains as some would refer to them, and that God is continuing to clean house in this country and across the world. He will raise up more Eliakim’s to replace them who will have the father’s heart. Those who will be connected with our Father’s heart. God wanted to reiterate our authority in reminding us that we have been given the keys of the kingdom of heaven and that we are to decree and declare his will into existence. Lord knows that there have been times past that we haven’t been doing our jobs like we’re supposed to because many of us didn’t really recognize who we are and our identity in Christ. Now power is important but authority is more important, because even the enemy of our souls has power, but he no longer has authority. Only that which we allow him to have. In Luke 10:19 “Look, I have given you power to tread over serpents and scorpions and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you.” So we see that one can have power without authority so that is why it was so important for Jesus to die for us to take the authority back that Adam and Eve gave away. Giftedness can bring you power but only a relationship with God that is not just obedient in act, but is done from a submissive heart to God which stems from a deep relationship with him gives you authority. So I watched the Turnaround conference, which was awesome and it elaborates in much more detail, some of the things God was speaking and it was accomplishing a lot of work in the spirit as well as many believers participated and decreed God’s will and word over our nation and our world. There we’re some other things that happened, such as Isaiah’s insignia being discovered around this time. I saw John post about it and told him what the Lord had been showing me and I was watching the conference online when I saw his post and told him about the conference. John said that he had, in fact been teaching on Isaiah 22:22 a good part of the year so I would imagine that he has some great revelation on the subject. There were some other confirmations and great things that happened this weekend like The Sid Roth team responding back to my messaging them about the 222 thing right after I was there and telling them that there was something big about the date 2/22 and they responded back after Billy died and said that the decision as to the day of the opening of the Embassy in Jerusalem had been decided on 2/22 as well. After a wonderful day in church with my family, we were headed back home when my husband noticed that the Mega Millions jackpot was worth 222 and was posted on a Sign! So crazy…we were flipping out in the car. Other amazing things happened but I will keep those to myself til released to speak about them. I heard a recording of Benny Hinn with Mark Chironna on TBN after Billy passed and Benny stated his passing would be the marker for this revival. Mark said something really great. He said that God is gonna have a bride at this time that is gonna be the bride of his dreams. Amen. I want to be that bride don’t you. Hold onto your hats people. Because we are in for a ride because we were born for such a time as this and I believe the greatest day the church has ever seen is upon us. God Bless.
