A Quick Prayer Reminder

I’m asking again for prayer over two very important events that will be happening within the next few days.

#1 ~ Our school will be starting our Bliss Healing Rooms this Saturday morning, October 29th, at the Life Center in Harrisburg, PA. We are so excited! What an opportunity! The Lord has divinely opened this door for us!

Cover every aspect of the healing rooms in prayer. Pray for a continual flow of His fresh anointing over everyone involved. Give thanks with great expectation for the many testimonies of healings that will be coming.

“More than any doctor, He heals your diseases.”
Psalm 103:3b Voice

#2 ~ And please keep lifting up our Shift DC Conference that begins next Wednesday. This is so important! Pray as many come together to hear the words of the prophets and to speak united prophetic declarations over this nation. With everything that is happening in this hour, I feel the beginning of the next Great Awakening stirring and ready to burst forth. We need to pray!

“And it shall come to pass in the last days, God declares, that I will pour out of My Spirit upon all mankind, and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy [telling forth the divine counsels] and your young men shall see visions (divinely granted appearances), and your old men shall dream [divinely suggested] dreams.”
Acts 2:17 Amplified

Thanks so much!

Great Things He Has Done!

“Give thanks to the mightiest of all lords; His love is eternal. He alone performs great miracles…”
Psalm 136:3-4a [GNT]

First of all, I want to give God the Glory for the Great things He did throughout our Supernatural Life Conference last week!

And then I want to thank all of you – our Global Celebration Intercessors – for all your prayers over this conference!  I stand on the belief that “When a believing person prays, great things happen.” [James 5:16b NCV]

Great Things Did Happen!

The speakers were amazing! The worship was glorious! The place was filled with the thick, heavy Presence of God! You could feel it so strong!

There were many breakthroughs. People were delivered and filled with His Joy!
So many people came from all over. Two dear ladies, who came last year all the way from Finland, returned again this year. I love when they join me in intercession!
I know of at least two people who had hearing loss that were healed. And I heard of two other people who had suffered with suicidal thoughts that were delivered during the conference. I know that there were many, many more testimonies too numerous to count.

“I give thanks to my God for you always when I mention you in my prayers,”
Philemon 4:4 [Amplified]
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

~~~~~~~~~~~~

I have another really important conference that I must ask you to pray for earnestly and diligently.

In less than four weeks we will be holding our Shift DC conference in our nation’s capital from November 2 – 6. As you all know, this is a vitally important and very strategic time and place for this conference. Just days prior to the 2016 Presidential Election, we will come together with many prophetic voices, apostolic leadership, worshipers, and great intercessors to lay our nation before our King of kings and Lord of lords – crying out to Him and seeking His heart for the many levels of leadership in the government of this land.

We need you to lift the next couple of weeks and the entire conference up in prayer. Pray for all who are called of the Lord to participate to answer that call quickly and passionately. If you are able to come – please, please join us! I will need you there for prayer. Pray for all of the necessary last minute details to come together perfectly. Pray the Lord’s protection and blessings over everything and everyone associated with this conference. Decree and declare that His Mighty Power working in and through this conference will truly bring about the much needed SHIFT in Washington, D.C. His Kingdom Come! His Will Be Done!

“When the upright need help and cry to the Eternal, He hears their cries and rescues them from all of their troubles.”
Psalm 34:17 [Voice]

~~~~~~~~~~~~

Our school has been continuing on beautifully! Since the Supernatural Life Conference we have had several more people signing up for this school year. Yeah, God!

Pray for all who are already in GCSSM and all of those who desire to one day be a part of the school – that God’s Perfect Will comes to pass and that all of their needs will be met. Keep praying for blessings upon every aspect of GCSSM!

~~~~~~~~~~~~

“Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse the lepers, cast out demons. Freely you have received, freely give.”
Matthew 10:8 [Amplified]

At the end of this month, GCSSM Harrisburg will begin to have Healing Rooms. Please pray as we step into the new opportunity for ministry that has opened for us. Many of our students who have been with us for a while have spent months training to prepare for this. Pray that they will continually be filled with His Great Healing Virtue that will be poured out on all they pray for – and, once again, for His Perfect Will to be done!

“He healed all the sick among them.”
Matthew 12:15b TLB

Yes and Amen!

With Grateful Thanks,

Watch Closely…

“Watch closely; I am preparing something new; it’s happening now, even as I speak, and you’re about to see it.”
Isaiah 43:19a [Voice]

~ Two Quick Prayer Requests ~

Watch GCSSM Closely!
The new school year for GCSSM has gotten off to a beautiful start! Along with many returning students, around fifty new students began their adventure in our school just over a week ago. It’s been an exciting beginning to what we expect to be an even greater school year than before at GCSSM!
Keep praying as “You’re about to see it” unfold!

Watch Closely at what will happen at the Life Center this week!
This Wednesday starts our Supernatural Life Conference in Harrisburg, PA. This is always one of our biggest conferences of the year. We will again be having some amazing speakers and worship leaders throughout the week. [Check our website for those details]
We are expecting Divine Encounters, Great Breakthroughs, and Miraculous Healings!
Your prayers will help to have this “something new” burst forth!

If you are attending the Supernatural Life Conference, be sure to join in the times of intercession!

White Eagle Vision

I was able to go to Harrisburg on Monday night to join with some of our GCSSM students for prayer. Every Monday and Tuesday night from 5:00 to 6:00 pm, GCSSM is assigned the use of the very beautiful, anointed prayer room at the Life Center called The Furnace. It is such a special place and we are very honored to be allowed to use it. During the school year GCSSM students join me in there for prayer before each class sessions starts. Through this summer there have been a few students that are able to still come for prayer. It’s been awesome! Thanks to those who have been able to continue to come. [Join us in prayer from wherever you are from 5:00-6:00 EST on Monday & Tuesday!]

On Monday night while we were praying, the Holy Spirit strongly turned the direction of our intercession over the Germany/Switzerland Revival and Reformation Ministry Tour which began today. Remember to keep this trip covered in prayer.

As our intercession continued the Holy Spirit kept hovering specifically over Germany. During the many prayers and declarations that were made over this nation, I had a vision. I saw a large white bird perched on Father God’s outstretched arm. Immediately I heard the words, “White Eagle.” I had never heard of a White Eagle.

Then I could see the Eagle being released from God’s arm, being sent into the assignment that was aligned with our prayers and declarations. Its wing span was huge as it flew towards the earth. I could tell that it was headed right over Germany, with wings outstretched over the entire country.

I thought, “White Eagle? I’ve never heard of a White Eagle. Is there such a thing?”

When I grabbed my phone to Google it, some beautiful pictures of White Eagles came up on the screen. They do exist!

Under one of the pictures were the words, “Rare White Eagle Stirs Souls.”

Yes, Lord!

Obviously this was a prophetic vision and word from God about what is going to take place over this nation throughout this trip. Pray for the unfolding of this vision and for all the souls that will be stirred up by His Spirit during this strategic time in Germany!

Georgian’s Mom is with Jesus

Early on Friday morning, Georgian and Winnie received the unexpected news that his Mom had stepped into Eternity ~ into the Loving Arms of her Savior.

She was such a Beautiful, Loving Woman of God ~ a Devoted and Proud Mother, Grandmother and Great-Grandmother. For those she has left behind, this is a painful loss; but for her, this is her eternal gain ~ her great reward! So we Rejoice and Celebrate her Homecoming!

Those of us who had the privilege of knowing her remember her smiling eyes and loving hugs and the caring heart she had for the orphans and those in need. She will truly be missed by many. So we also grieve with those who are grieving.

“Precious (important and no light matter) in the sight of the Lord is the death of His saints (His loving ones).”
Psalm 116:15 Amplified

After a loss I had many years ago, the Lord showed me how Psalm 116:15 was worded in the Amplified Version. I had always felt that this verse in other translation related how much joy He felt that His loved ones were now with Him. I don’t discount that, but He really impressed upon me through this version that He didn’t take my loss lightly ~ it was precious and important and of no light matter to Him. He feels and understands our pain.

This is a great loss for Georgian and his family. Please soak them in your loving prayers.

Holy Spirit, we ask You to encompass them with Your Great Comfort and saturate them with Your Sweet, yet Powerful, Peace. Father, wrap Your Loving Arms around them and keep them to rest there.

Urgent Prayer needed for our Bliss House!

I have a VITALLY IMPORTANT Immediate Prayer Need for Global Celebration’s Orphans Ministry.

About four years ago, Global Celebration helped to start an orphanage in Hyderabad, India, that we call the Bliss House. We have been renting this three-story home that has been a perfect place to care for the forty children currently living there. Now the landlord wants to sell the building and already has a qualified buyer.

We need help to buy the building outright immediately to prevent the displacement of our children. Some of the money has been raised, but we quickly need more.

Help Save the Bliss House for our Children in 6 Weeks!
For more information Click Here.
To donate Click Here.

Cry out to Jehovah-Jireh to provide again for this intense financial need as He has done so many times before for our ministry! He is Faithful! Pray for God’s Hand to stop any actions that are trying to take this home away from our children.

“A Call To Arms”

When I was in prayer with our GCSSM Students on Tuesday night, I asked, as I usually do, “Lord, what is on Your heart tonight?” I immediately heard the words, “A Call To Arms.” Then I had a vision of a mountain with someone standing on top crying out, sounding an alarm, blowing a shofar across to another mountain. Then I saw another mountain and another mountain and another – each with someone standing on the top doing the same thing. It was the Call To Arms, a call for the armies of intercessors to rise up and prayer. Pray for this Nation! Pray for this World!

A definition for “A Call To Arms” is “a summons, invitation, or appeal to undertake a particular course of action.” God is obviously calling out to His people to undertake a greater course of action in prayer, to be awakened, and to be raised into an even higher level of intercession than the world has ever seen!

As most of you know, this Saturday is the 110th Anniversary of the Azusa Street Revival. Several years after this great outpouring of the Holy Spirit began; a prophecy was spoken about how, in around 100 years later, another even greater move of the Spirit would happen. Now is that time!

Through a series of visions, dreams and prophetic words, Lou Engle – co-founder of TheCall, Inc. – knew that an event of this magnitude was to be held this on the 110th Anniversary, this Saturday, April 9, 2016, at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum. There is much more information than I can write about here about AzusaNow so I encourage you to google more about it. Click Here

Georgian and many of our GSCCM Students will be in attendance. People are coming from all over the world. Please pray for everyone’s coming in and going out throughout the day-long event. [You should be able to tune into GodTV to watch AzusaNow being broadcast live.]

Aligning with what will be happening on the West Coast, on the same day on the East Coast another massive call to prayer will be held – UnitedCry- DC16. It will be held in our nation’s capital on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial. With the same heart as AzusaNow, this is a gathering of “Pastors, Christian leaders, intercessors, and believers who will spend the day praying and fasting for awakening in America.” From the East to the West, God will hear the heart cry of His people.

“Assemble the people. Consecrate the congregation. Gather the elders and other leaders, the young children, and even the nursing babies. Let the bride and groom leave their chambers on their wedding night. Let the priests, the Eternal’s servants, stand between the porch and the altar and weep as they intercede.
Let them say…Have pity on Your people, O Eternal One! And do not let Your legacy-Your covenant people-Be taunted and mocked by the nations, who ask, “Where is their God?” But wait-the Eternal One has become possessive of His land; He will restore us in compassion, His people!
In response to our prayers, the Eternal will answer…”
Joel 2:16-19 [Voice]

I implore all of you as intercessors to take serious this “Call To Arms!” No matter where you are – if you can attend one of these events, if you can join with others in your church or in your home or if you are by yourself – pray like never before for our nation! Fasten your seat belts! Something Amazing is about to happen!

Our Holy Land Miracle Tour & Compassion Outreach is about to begin!

“We have made the journey, and now we are standing within your gates, O Jerusalem. Jerusalem! What a magnificent city! Buildings so close together, so compact. God’s people belong here. Every tribe of the Eternal makes its way to Jerusalem-Just as God decreed for Israel to come together and give thanks to the Eternal.”  Psalm 122:2-4 Voice

Georgian and Winnie are already in Israel awaiting the arrival of our Amazing, God-Ordained, Divinely-Picked team who are traveling there today. Our dear friends Brian and Candace Simmons (lead translators of The Passion Translation) will also be joining our group, who along with the Banovs, will deliver life-changing messages and give deeper understanding to the accounts of the Bible.

Every year this is such a wonderful, anointed, Spirit-filled adventure for all – beginning with gathering at the airport, bonding as they travel, arriving as a team, ministering throughout the Holy Land, and returning home with breathtaking memories and powerful testimonies of all the things that God did!

“O Jerusalem, may there be peace for those who dwell inside your walls and prosperity in your every palace. I intercede for the sake of my family and friends who dwell there, that they may all live in peace!” Psalm 122:7-8 Passion

Continue to lift them in prayer as they travel throughout Israel. They will again be bringing food to the widows and pouring out His rich love to everyone in the Palestinian refugee camps, praying for the wounded and sick in the hospital, sharing the Good News and ministering to as many as they can reach as they travel from one area to another.

Pray for Divine Protection, Divine Strength, Divine Health, Divine Rest, Divine Provision, Divine Guidance, and Divine Wisdom for every move they make and in every place they go to

Pray for God to be filling them daily with a continual flow of His Fresh, Blissfully Joyful, Powerfully Loving Anointing that will change atmospheres and touch everyone and every place they come in contact with.

“Wherever they are, they will be fine, never hungry nor thirsty. They will be protected…because the One who loves them-as a mother loves her child-will be their guide. God will lead them to restful places, rejuvenating springs of water. I will make their going easy, level the mountain road and smooth the path that leads them home. Look! Even now, they are coming from lands far away, some from the north, others from the west…” Isaiah 49:10-12 Voice

As I was spending time with God this morning and praying for this trip, I opened up my copy of Patricia King’s book Decree. It turned right to the chapter entitled Blessing. I felt that the Lord wanted me to start declaring some of what was written there over our team. See what is written below and declare these words over them with me:

“Nothing but blessing is permitted to come into their lives or sphere of influence. They are blessed and are called to be a blessing. Through their life in Jesus, nations are blessed. Blessings come upon them and overtake them. Blessings are attracted to them. They are blessing magnets. They are blessed coming in and blessed going out. They are blessed in the city and blessed in the field. The heavens are open over their lives and the rain of God’s abundant goodness falls on them and all that pertains to them. No good thing has He withheld from them. They are blessed in everything they put their hands to!”

Yes and Amen!

Psalm 40:8-10

As I was reading Psalm 40 from the Passion Translation this morning, verses 8-10 jumped out at me and I thought they were a great description of the Banovs ~

“I delight to fulfill your will, my God, for your living words are written upon the pages of my heart. I tell everyone everywhere the truth of your righteousness. And you know I haven’t held back in telling the message to all. I don’t keep it a secret, or hide the truth. I preach of your faithfulness and kindness, proclaiming your extravagant love to the largest crowd I can find!”

A Word for 2016 from Candice Simmons

Last week at our Ascend Conference in Harrisburg, at the beginning of one of Brian Simmons’ sessions, his wife Candice stood up and declared this Word for 2016 over us. When I asked, she gave me her joyful permission to share this with you. Enjoy this Awesome Word ~

“And as we begin this New Year I’ve been reflecting on a word from the Lord that I began hearing during our last visit to Australia. Here it is:

A year of rapid change As the new year rushes in upon us many of the old familiar things around us will begin to change. This will be a year of rapid change. Some of the things you once enjoyed and held onto will pass away. In the end you will see and understand more clearly for our Father, our Abba, is moving things all around and positioning things. In the midst of the changes you may want to put up a fight and try to resist, but it’s time to let it go! God has a plan greater than ours and He is re-centering and re-focusing us.

A year of new courage and boldness And during this process He’s filling you with a new courage and boldness to face things that you were unable to face last year. It really is the time to “Forget the former things; and not dwell on the past.” Isaiah 43:18 For He’s ALWAYS doing a new thing and making all things new. (Rev. 21:5) He’s out ahead of us. You will certainly see it this year! We’re on an accelerated course. And at times you will feel a sting at letting go, but He will come and comfort you as He moves you on and sets you free of the things that may have troubled you last year. This year will be a “Manasseh” year. (Manasseh means, “God made me to forget all my troubles” because this year will be a year of moving ahead with courage and boldness into a time of fruitfulness.

A year of His love This is the year of sixteen, a year of His love. Several numerologists equate sixteen with naïveté, vulnerability and love. The quintessential example of a scripture on love is John 3:16, “For God so loved the world!” And the Lord spoke to me and said that He is highlighting the book of John and the epistles written by John, (books of His love) this year. It would be good if you were to meditate on the scriptures found in these amazing books. In the first few years of my Christian experience I memorized the first 7 chapters of John and 1st John (don’t ask me why I didn’t do the rest of John. I can’t remember why I stopped, but it changed me forever.) Of course The Song of Solomon is the epitome of love. You should read and study it too. But I’m just highlighting John, because the Lord specifically spoke to me about John and his epistles.

A year to finish I dreamed that our Father was carrying us over the finish line. This is your year to finish many things that you have been unable to finish the last few years. I heard Him say, “You will emerge with a new supernatural energy, courage and boldness that will carry you through, for it’s my love that carries you. And I’m coming with a kiss that will sweep you off your feet!, but at the same time leave you with a new lease on life and a new energy. And He said, “I will kiss you over and over with many types of kisses. And each kiss will be tailor made for you and for each individual situation. For there will be many waves of My unconditional love pouring over you and being released over and into you because there will be times when you will be tempted to quit, but my love will bring you back to the things that really matter. And if you’ll allow me to carry you and not resist my tender advances I will bring you into a place where you will find a deeper revelation of my purpose and plan for you on this earth.”

A year to soar (Recently I had a dream about winged people.) And as you accept His tender advances He will give you wings to soar. This will be the year of soaring Christians! It’s time for you to take off! Time to leave the problems of this earth and to walk in the heavenly realm where you are seated. Eph. 2:6. The things that took you down and out last year will have no affect on you this year. For you are changing and God is giving you wings to soar and the wind of the Holy Spirit to lift you up! It’s time to soar above all that the enemy would try to do to hold you down and back!

A year of increased unity and communion in the body
Unity And this is a year of communion. Communion with God and communion with others. Union from communion will begin to take place. All that you have cultivated in the past few years in your times communing with Him and with the body will now go to a deeper level. New signs of unity will begin to emerge. You will see glimmers of John 17, the unity prayer of Christ beginning to happen. Things that we had tried to instigate for years will now begin to emerge around us.
Communion New Year’s morning I awoke to chimes that lasted for a full minute from 6:57 to 6:58am. I believe that the Lord told me to look up John 6:57-58. This is what it says; Jesus speaking: “The Father of Life sent me, and He is my life. In the same way, the one who feeds upon me, I will become his life. I am not like the bread your ancestors ate and later died. I am the Living Bread that comes from heaven. Eat this Bread and you will live forever!” John 6:57-58

Jesus is calling us to His table to receive more of His life. Jo. 6:56 days, “He that eats my body and drinks my blood is strengthened in me and I in Him!” This year the communion table will take on a greater significance. Come with joy and rejoicing and receive more of Him! Come to the banqueting table, the place where Christ’s life, power, and virtue is being offered to sustain us. Let this be your year of your strengthening as you enjoy the bread of His presence and move in to commune with Him and with others on at a whole new level!

The year of revelation and faith aligning in hearts And finally as I was out driving the other day and came to a traffic light I noticed that instead of two green lights it had a blue and a green light together. Immediately I heard the Lord say to me loud and clear, “Blue is the new green.” Blue stands for revelation and green for go or faith to move forward.

The last few years, the Lord has literally been pouring out the Spirit of understanding on His church. And this year He’s coupling that understanding with faith to go forward. Instead of having to wait for a word from our favorite prophet to come, I see the church beginning to gather their daily manna, consuming it on the spot and moving forward. This year will be a “give us this day our daily bread” year! Instead of saving revelation for another day and sitting it on the shelf where it collects maggots, this will be the day of living in daily revelation. This is the time to hear God for ourselves and to walk it out in faith!”
