The Canvass

Vision of The Canvass

 

I see a blank white canvass on an easel. Paint of many different colors was being splattered onto it. The paint was all over the canvass except near the edges. The edges were still blank white.

 

Then the Painter, who is a master Artist, takes His brush and begins to add distinction, definition, shape and form to the paint that was just splattered on the canvass. He begins to add accents and highlights and shadow where he desires and where He sees that the painting needs it.

 

God is that Master Artist and He is making a masterpiece of you. You may only look and see a messy blob of paint on that canvass. But God is looking at the image He has in His mind. The image He had when He began to create this masterpiece. He is a Master Artist!

 

Remember; do not look at the paint on the canvass. For all the while the Artist is working with the paint; it is not the paint He is concerned about, but the canvass. It is the canvass that becomes His masterpiece, not the paint. You are that canvass and He is making a masterpiece out of you.

 

Don’t be discouraged by looking at the paint.

 

Philippians 1:6 (NKJV)
being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete
it until the day of Jesus Christ;

Vision of Breakthrough

Vision of Breakthrough

As I was praying – for breakthrough for our church and over our people –
I saw in the Spirit a domed shaped object that was covering overhead, like and umbrella -I was on the ground looking up at it –
The object was translucent in color and had an elasticity and substance like a rubber glove –
As I prayed I began to be raised up to the domed object and started to be pressed into the object. As I was pressed in the object conformed around me and I felt pressure and resistance from the object. Then I heard a voice say “Press through for breakthrough!”

I had an understanding immediately. And the Lord said to me…

“This (object) will not be cut and opened as with a knife, nor will it be ripped or torn, but it will be burst open from the inside as you press through. The pressure will get greater and resistance will intensify, and you will be faced with a choice to continue to press on through for the resistance will be great as it reaches it’s peak, or you can back off and feel no pressure or resistance, but also no breakthrough.”
“As the resistance and pressure reaches it’s peak and at its greatest apex… Rejoice! – For it is about to burst open, and burst it will!”

Great breakthrough – with light, glory and joy…

Then I saw my closed right hand in a fist pushing into the object and continuing to press against the resistance. And I thought I could not push any more or any harder… Then I heard a voice say “Just continue slow and steady!”

The pressure was still resistant and increasing, but as I continued slowly to push forward and apply pressure, it was not so hard. I was tiring and thought about quitting or resting and then I heard “Press On! Press On!” So I continued to push.
Then I felt a sudden release – my fist burst through and the domed object burst wide open. It was as if a rush of wind and air gushed through the opening and rays of light shone through. There was a feeling of great peace and confidence.

At first I thought this was for the church I was praying for, and the Lord said to me “Yes, but it’s for you personally too!”
Then I remembered what the Apostle Peter said in his letter, that no prophecy of scripture is for private interpretation.
2 Peter 1:20 (NKJV)
knowing this first, that no prophecy of Scripture is of any private interpretation,

This is a word for our Church corporately and for each member individually.

This is for you too, if you will receive it.

Be Blessed

Dream of The Cars

The dream started with us (Dani and I) sitting in a car stopped behind two other cars one in front of us, in the right lane, and the other in the left lane in front of us. I was sitting in the driver’s seat of the car and Dani was in the front passenger seat with me. It seemed that we were at a stop light, but I never saw the light. We were content sitting there and just enjoying being there.

Then all of a sudden I saw in the rear view mirror a car out of control coming real fast and was going to crash into us. The car was painted with pastel rainbow colored stripes going down it from front to back. I don’t remember all the colors just that it was rainbow colored. I was suddenly aware that the cars in front of us were both parked and no one was in them. So I immediately turned right onto another street and pulled up along side the curb behind another parked car. I looked in the rearview mirror and saw this car plow into one of the parked cars. I felt relieved. Then I was jarred by the impact of this same car hitting us as well. After hitting the car that was in front of us, it had turned to come after us and then it turned again and went back to hit the other car that was in the left lane that was in front of us when we were over there.

Then I thought we should have pulled up farther to a more safe place. Like when the prophet told the man to strike the ground and he struck it three times, and he was told he should have struck it more.

All of a sudden the scene was reset and we were back in the right lane behind the two parked cars again, except this time we were aware of the situation. We knew that we would do something different this time. So when I saw the rainbow car come again ( I was on the look out to see it) I saw it sooner this time and I immediately turned to the right again except this time I kept going and instead of parking behind that other car I turned right again and kept going and went up over the curb till I cam to this park with lots of grass and open area. I stopped and we looked back over our shoulders this time and watched the car crash into the car that was in front of us and it then turned right, except this time it hit the car that we had parked behind alongside the curb and then turned back to go hit the other car that was in the left lane in front of us.

Vision of the Doors

The vision:

I saw many doors moving in front of me from right to left as I looked at them. They appeared to be on rails or tracks and they were suspended in the air. They were spaced several feet apart and all moving at the same time and same pace. As a door would pass by it would stop and pause in front of me for just a brief moment then continue along. It seemed that the doors would keep coming around as if in a loop so that the same doors would come back around again. There was no apparent distinction between the doors. They were all the same in appearance.

I understood that I was to choose a door, but I did not know which one. Then I heard a voice say “This one!” And I knew contained in those words was also the importance of “RIGHT NOW!” and “IMMEDIATELY!” So I barged forward with a running leap quickly and chose that door that was in front of me. The door opened by itself as I chose it by leaping forward. As I walked through the door everything slowed down and I saw all the rails that the doors were moving on and behind each door was a whole new series of rails and tracks all going different directions. Many of the rails and tracks were in maze formations but reached their destination. Many had dead ends and would require coming all the way back to the beginning and starting over. And some just ended and fell off into nothing. Then I looked up and saw my rail it was straight and direct to my destination with no detours or mazes.

The interpretation:

The looping rail with all the doors are the trials and tests we face.

The doors are the choices we make; we can choose which ever things we want.

The rails or tracks behind the doors are the results or consequences of the choices we make.

The voice is the direction of the Lord’s choice.

The “Right Now” is God’s timing

The Barging forward is the leap of faith

Everything slowing down is being in God’s will

The understanding:

We have many choices in life. If we will just observe and wait for God to say “Go”, then we need to go and go right then. Even if we don’t know or can’t see what is on the other side. If we trust Him and take that leap of faith at His word, we will be okay. The path will be straight and narrow. If we choose the wrong door or go at the wrong time, the result is the same, a path that is neither straight nor narrow. Even if we choose the wrong door or go in the wrong time we can still go back and choose another door. They keep coming over and over. We get more than one chance to choose the right door.

You Are The Conduit

When I got this word I had the awareness and understanding it was regarding prayer and intercession.

You are a conduit for God to use to accomplish His plans and purposes here on the earth.

As you allow God to use you,

As you yield yourself to Him and His direction,

Then there will remain a residue of God and His presence inside the conduit (YOU).

Think of an oil pipe line- after the oil has flowed through the pipe there is a residue of oil left inside the pipe after it has flown through-

If you want more of this residue it is up to you.

  • How much? How often you let God flow through you?
  • How much? How much do you yield to Him and His direction?
  • How much? How much pressure do you allow to flow through you?
  • How much intensity of the residue (God’s presence)will you allow?
