“Watch the stock market revive. The economy is warm and not cold."

“‘Confidence! Confidence! We have no confidence!’ Cries and cries, I have heard them all,” says the Lord. “Why when the winds blow and the earth shakes and I have said it will blow and blow but do not lose heart and yet you lose heart? See? Winds don’t blow forever. This too shall pass.

“Watch the stock market revive. The economy is warm and not cold. I told you no contagion. Do you not trust? Hear a good report. See My right hand of redemption. I do not steal, kill and destroy. But I prune. I clip, clip, clip with my shears to remove the dead wood. Speak life! See my redemption! Will you allow me to prune? Why do you worry? Winds will blow worry into your heart, or you can blow worry away and stand. Pray like Moses prayed. Pray like Daniel prayed. Walk like Enoch walked. Usher in My kingdom and strong arm with your praises and prayer and I will answer. You will see great and mighty miracles. Do you no longer believe in miracles because you watch the winds and feel the earth quake? I am looking for those who will climb a stairway to heaven in boldness and bring down treasures for this nation. Call to Me with righteous prayers and I will answer you,” says the Lord.


Update as of August 23, 2011 4:45 pm: I just became aware of Hurricane Irene this morning, was moved and prayed there would not be much loss of life, if any. I didn’t think there was any link with August 21's prophecy until I learned of an unusual earthquake this afternoon (about 2pm Eastern Daylight Time) on the east coast that even shook our nation’s capital and was felt in Wall Street:

Update as of October 29, 2011:
On the date of this prophecy the DOW was basing after a sharp correction and closed ~10,800. Much fear was in the news about Greece and the risk of sovereign debt default and contagion to the global economy including America. As of the date of this update, a great deal of confidence has been restored regarding containment of the Greek and European situation. In response, the DOW rose as much as 400 points on October 27, 2011.  The DOW closed this week ~12,200, approximately 13% and 1400 points higher than the date of this prophecy.

"A time of great outpouring of My Spirit"

 I had packed up my computer and gone out into my garden to thank the Lord for this last blog post update and to pray. I was filled with the Spirit and started thanking Him for the liberty in America. And then I asked Him to bless every single man, woman and child in America who places their trust wholly in Him. As I write this I feel His Spirit so heavy on and in me, the anointing is so strong. “There will be a breakthrough,” the Lord says, “there will be a breakthrough for every single citizen of America who is a citizen of heaven. My economy is not the world’s with its systems and manipulations. My economy breaks through the walls of worry. My economy is the engine of all engines. Cast all your cares on Me because I care for you and will never let you drown. You will swim, yes, swim with great bold strokes of joy in the sunlight. You won’t feel the chill of the waters. You won’t care there are sharks in the water. You will swim and swim in the deep waters of my Spirit because I alone will uphold. Go to Ezekiel and understand this. This is a time of a great outpouring of my Spirit. I will honor Kim Clement. You must give honor where it is due. There are those who swim and swim and swim against the tide. They have been betrayed. Friends have left them. Family counts them losers. But you, you, you, all of you, shall be catapulted into a new place of glory because I am doing a great work! Rejoice because your time of glory and joy, yes, joy you have lost, is upon you! Swim!! Swim!! Swim!! Swim!! My waters are rising!!”

Japan Earthquake and California

I’ve had a heaviness ever since yesterday, and when I think about Japan the heaviness increases and I feel moved to prayer, to intercede that lives be saved, and that there be no nuclear disaster. Dear people on this far away island need our prayers and love.

I also tweeted last night, “I rarely read other prophets, but I encourage you to listen to Kim Clement re Japan's EQ:
http://www.kimclement.com/japan-earthquake.php” I rarely read other prophets simply because I hear the Lord much better when I spend time alone with Him and don’t confuse my mind with many other prophecies, many which appear to conflict. I have great respect for Kim Clement and credit Him as the prophet the Lord drew me to in the late 1990’s to learn more about hearing the Lord accurately. So Kim is somewhat of a spiritual father, if you will, although he doesn’t know it. And I trust what I share on this blog will not discredit him in anyway. I simply want to give honor where it is due.

This said, I researched the prophecy Kim referred to above and here it is:
http://kimclementvault.com/prophecyread.asp?num=123

My spirit became as a magnet to this prophecy, drawn in an affinity to and agreement with it. I live in the San Francisco Bay Area. I see the committed Christians. And I live right in the Hayward fault zone.http://seismo.berkeley.edu/hayward/hay_faults.gif
http://earthquake.usgs.gov/regional/nca/simulations/hayward/
I worked for a year at the USGS Office of Earthquake Studies researching earthquakes when I was an undergraduate. I know, as a geologist with training in geophysics, that “the big one” could hit the greater San Francisco Bay Area or Los Angeles area at any time. Most seismologists agree Japan, East Bay (Oakland, Hayward), San Francisco, and Los Angeles are a few of the prime areas for “the big one” earthquakes.http://www.seismo.ethz.ch/static/GSHAP/
https://geohazards.usgs.gov/eqprob/2009/output/3656_large.png
https://geohazards.usgs.gov/eqprob/2009/output/2238_large.png

However, I’m in agreement with Kim that an increase in the Presence of God – not retribution – is coming to California. In fact, I don’t just believe, I am convinced this is true in the Spirit. Yes, we will have earthquakes throughout California. We will have some big shakers and likely a “big one” because earthquake science also points that way. But they will not be the all-consuming devastation others believe will happen in the coming few or several years. The Lord doesn’t want me to move, I’ve asked. He wants me to trust Him while I live in the Hayward fault zone – the one poised to pop even ahead of the San Andreas fault zone – and believe Him that He will protect many through the next “big one” when it comes.

Please know my heart aches for Japan and the devastation there. I oddly feel we Californians have escaped that devastation and will be spared similar devastation. Under the New Covenant, no state or government is so Christian that it invites collective, divine protection for its people. It is God alone who delivers and protects. In fact, the Bible shows over and over that prayers of the oppressed under intolerant or godless regimes reach the compassionate ears of God. Only the blood of Jesus Christ saves by washing away the sins of each individual believer as each person commits his or her life to Him. So I do not judge Japan or judge California. My heart aches for Japan and I pray for them.

I received the word below at about 10am this morning. The above was written several hours after this word.

“Samaria! Samaria! Oh, California, they call you, ‘Samaria’. Sodom and Gomorrah. They would rejoice in your demise and your being crushed to ashes. But I say to all the other states, to all the others, when you are without iniquity, when you are without murder, when you are without abortion, when you are without fornications, when you are without idolatries, when you are without theft, when you are without lying, when you are without double-mindedness, then, then can you cast a stone and crush the head of California. But until then, beware how you judge.”

DOW to 14,000, a Rich Man

“One more word, child. You have noticed the economy warmed as I said. The Dow is rising to 12,000 as I said. So hear this, the bears and those crying wolf want the sky to fall, a disastrous event, a retribution with fire from heaven. But hear this, I breathe life, I breathe life, I breathe life that my children who have suffered the fire might shine like bright gold. Oh, and yes! The Dow will chug, chug, chug along like that little engine that could. I think it can, I know it can! Watch 14,000. Not soon, longer than a year. But that little blue engine with a noble heart chugged, chugged, chugged on. So no catastrophic crashes, no flash floods in the market. How boring! Grace falls like dew from the sky. But be aware and on guard. The word for you, Sierra, is treasure the maturity learned in affliction. Lessons are a greater treasure than portfolios. A man’s worth is not measured in dollars. Where your heart is, there your treasure is. Job was a rich man indeed, a very rich man. His heart saw me.”

Update as of January 3, 2011 9:30 am
A friend contacted me and wanted to know if there were any other impressions or thoughts regarding the word I received for 2011 since some other big name prophets are predicting disaster for the second half of 2011. Here is what I wrote back:

“There is no inside scoop on the word. I have been carrying the future 14,000 in my spirit for over a year, but last night was the time to release it since the Lord gave me that second word about 2011 right before I was shutting down my computer. I purposely did not read one single prophetic word, either on IWI, Elijah List or anywhere else, about 2011 before I heard from the Lord myself. Then I was curious and read some of the words posted on IWI. I saw the catastrophe words for the second half of 2011. I thought, oh boy, here we go again, as I’m used to being the lone contrarian to other “prophetic voices”. But if those prophecies don’t come to pass, were they actually prophecies? Were those voices actually prophetic voices? I wonder why people keep listening to prophetic voices that are either vague or wrong?

“I speak to the heavenlies – not to people although a handful have stumbled on my blog - and that has been my job since early 2009. It is very important the word be spoken and the heavenlies hear.”

Please know I am standing-my-ground in upholding with my words that which the Lord has shown me. I continue to stand in the gap for America and am immensely appreciative of God’s mercy and grace. I find it sad that in 2009 and 2010 I was not aware of single prophetic voice that agreed with the Lord’s bullishness for our stock market and economy. Maybe there was one, I don’t read many prophecies, but to my knowledge there was not a single, specific bullish voice about America’s economy and the stock market when the Lord first spoke to me. Please know there will be corrections and bumps in the road, that is normal and you don’t need a prophet to say that will happen because it will. Life is never smooth. But He did say, “no catastrophic crashes, no flash floods in the market.” I slept very well last night and am really looking forward to 2011. But please know His message for 2011 is about the treasure of His kingdom within, not about the market. No man can take that treasure from you if you protect it. This is the verse I last read before I went to sleep, “a good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth good things.” Matthew 12:35 (NKJV). May good things spring forth in 2011 out of the good treasures in the hearts of many Americans. Such is the kingdom of God.

Update as of February 1, 2013 10:30am: 

The January 3, 2011 “Dow to 14,000” prophecy was fulfilled today, the DOW reached 14,000.

Please understand that when this prophecy was given about two years ago, the Dow had closed at 11,577.  Also, it had not broken above 11,600 since before the crash in 2008.   Throughout 2011 and 2012, there were numerous naysayers predicting collapse of America’s economy into another recession or depression.  There were those predicting an unraveling of the world’s global economy.  Neither happened.  And the Dow did chug, chug, chug along like that little engine that could.  It rose an impressive 21% in just two years, just like the Lord said on January 3, 2011, “Watch 14,000. Not soon, longer than a year. But that little blue engine with a noble heart chugged, chugged, chugged on. So no catastrophic crashes, no flash floods in the market.”

Where from here?  On towards 15,000.  See my August 21, 2012 tweet, “A few days ago saw in a vision DOW going to 15K after 14K. As approached 15K, sharp drop like a knife to ~12K. Saw same vision again today.” Also see my December 12, 2012 blog post:

I need to add that based on current, somewhat fuzzy visions I have of the Dow after it approaches 15,000 (please know it may not reach 15,000 but will be close), it will drop to the 13,000s and maybe not to the 12,000s.  I don’t have clarity on the extent of the drop.  However, it will be a sharp and strong correction.

Update as of April 15, 2013 11:30 am:  
I realize I was not clear in saying the DOW may correct into the 13,000s rather than into the 12,000s.  What I saw in the initial 2 repetitive visions 8 months ago in August 2012 (when the DOW was about 13,300) was a sharp correction into the 12,000s after the DOW approaches 15,000.  But later, after prayer, my understanding was it may correct into the low 13,000s instead, thus below 13,500.  The DOW rose to within 113 points of 15,000 a few days ago on April 11, 2013.  Based on the two August 2012 visions of the DOW approaching 15,000 and then sharply correcting, the correction might happen any day now.  Of course, the DOW may level out for a couple weeks before it sharply corrects, I do not know.  My gut feel based on the original repetitive visions in August 2012 and subsequent prayer the last few months (please know this part is not prophecy but my gut feel after prayer) is the DOW will correct to the range of 12,800 to 13,400.

Update as of July 31, 2013 1:00 pm:
The knife-life drop in the stock market which I saw and anticipated did not happen. So I believe the vision I saw was not from the Lord but from my imagination. We all have imagination. Differentiating between seeing through the filter of our imagination and seeing what the Lord sees through the pure vision from His Spirit takes spiritual sensitivity and discernment. Unless we are perfect, we make mistakes as I did. Making a mistake is an opportunity to do what is more important: seeking first intimacy with Him and love of others, which is His kingdom. In the clarity and quiet stillness of His Spirit, we will see, hear, and understand all He wants us to know and move beyond mistakes.
 
 

"2011 I will restore"

“2010 was a disappointment to many. You expected, you anticipated, I had promised you. Victory was in the wings, but for reasons you will learn later some victories were snatched from you. Yet you witnessed I was with you, even in the smallest and humblest of moments.

“So here is what is in store. What was stolen in 2010 will be shaken from the clutches of your enemy in 2011. You will rejoice like David rejoiced when he got the wives and children back. But in your celebration don't forget what you learned in the tests of fire. Have you noticed maturity is your companion, no longer a symptom of aging? Maturity is a virtue. Humility is a virtue. A contrite and quiet heart will hear me. I don't delight in brokenness. But I do draw close to the quiet and gentle soul. The one taught to weather the storms with maturity that shows My light, with radiance despite darkness around.

“So 2011 I will restore. And you will cherish the lessons learned from 2010. You will always remember affliction breeds maturity. My children are set apart and shall always be in the world but not of the world. The great trouble unearths the greatest treasures within you. Job said his eye sees me. Now your heart sees me. And you will not lose sight of the kingdom. For the kingdom is within you.”


I looked up the verses that the Lord made reference to above. Here they are, Happy New Year. I can feel the fight and indeed the maturity from the trials in my spirit, like David, ready to take back in 2011 with the Lord's strength what had been taken.

When David and his men came to Ziklag, they found it destroyed by fire and their wives and sons and daughters taken captive. So David and his men wept aloud until they had no strength left to weep. David's two wives had been captured--Ahinoam of Jezreel and Abigail, the widow of Nabal of Carmel. David was greatly distressed because the men were talking of stoning him; each one was bitter in spirit because of his sons and daughters. But David found strength in the Lord his God.
Then David said to Abiathar the priest, the son of Ahimelech, "Bring me the ephod." Abiathar brought it to him, and David inquired of the Lord, "Shall I pursue this raiding party? Will I overtake them?"
"Pursue them," he answered. "You will certainly overtake them and succeed in the rescue."
David and the six hundred men with him came to the Besor Ravine, where some stayed behind, for two hundred men were too exhausted to cross the ravine. But David and four hundred men continued the pursuit.
They found an Egyptian in a field and brought him to David. They gave him water to drink and food to eat-- part of a cake of pressed figs and two cakes of raisins. He ate and was revived, for he had not eaten any food or drunk any water for three days and three nights.
David asked him, "To whom do you belong, and where do you come from?"
He said, "I am an Egyptian, the slave of an Amalekite. My master abandoned me when I became ill three days ago. We raided the Negev of the Kerethites and the territory belonging to Judah and the Negev of Caleb. And we burned Ziklag."
David asked him, "Can you lead me down to this raiding party?"
He answered, "Swear to me before God that you will not kill me or hand me over to my master, and I will take you down to them."
He led David down, and there they were, scattered over the countryside, eating, drinking and reveling because of the great amount of plunder they had taken from the land of the Philistines and from Judah. David fought them from dusk until the evening of the next day, and none of them got away, except four hundred young men who rode off on camels and fled. David recovered everything the Amalekites had taken, including his two wives. Nothing was missing: young or old, boy or girl, plunder or anything else they had taken. David brought everything back. He took all the flocks and herds, and his men drove them ahead of the other livestock, saying, "This is David's plunder."
1 Sam 30:3-20 (NIV)

This is what the Lord says:
"Heaven is my throne,
and the earth is my footstool.
Where is the house you will build for me?
Where will my resting place be?
Has not my hand made all these things,
and so they came into being?"
declares the Lord.
"This is the one I esteem:
he who is humble and contrite in spirit,
and trembles at my word."
Isaiah 66:1-2 (NIV)

For thus says the High and Lofty One
Who inhabits eternity, whose name is Holy:
"I dwell in the high and holy place,
With him who has a contrite and humble spirit,
To revive the spirit of the humble,
And to revive the heart of the contrite ones."
Isaiah 57:15 (NKJV)

...the hidden person of the heart, with the incorruptible beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is very precious in the sight of God.
1 Peter 3:4 (NKJV)

[Job said to the Lord:] "I have heard of You by the hearing of the ear, But now my eye sees You."
Job 42:5 (NKJV)

Jesus replied, "The kingdom of God does not come with your careful observation, nor will people say, 'Here it is,' or 'There it is,' because the kingdom of God is within you."
Luke 17:20-21 (NIV)

December 24, 2010

Work

This was given December 24 at about 1:30 am.

“Capitalism! Capitalism! The greed has overtaken you. When you return to a good day’s labor, to helping another, to fixing and growing and inventing and instilling and creating and climbing and bringing up that within your reach, then I will bless your coffers and pour out an abundance you cannot contain.

“I see your honest labor. I see you pour yourself out for another and receiving not enough. But I see and I will supplement what is in your hand in due time.

“My people are tired because they’re focused on the money. But do an honest day’s work. Work for someone and bless them with your good work. And see your soul will be filled. And I see. Yes I see. I will add all these things to you that you lack such that you will be refreshed again.

“I have hedged you in left, right, front and back so you cannot run away. You cannot escape the test. But I have set up the tests so you will pass! You are my prize students! Test for your benefit so you pass and excel, excel in The Way. Such is the way of a carpenter, I know, to make beautiful things people use. Or of a shepherd. Or of a servant and heaven-sent king. Give through working, through helping and it will be given to you good measure and pressed down to overflow in your bosom.

“Do not be so spiritual that they do not see a good worker, a good laborer, a good servant in their company or family or church.

“Go into the world and be my lights. Pour yourself out and see I refresh you as I pour Myself into you. That is how cups overflow, by pouring.”
