Prophecy
February 4, 2007
As 25 years had passed before Abraham saw the promise of Issac fulfilled – so 25 years has passed for New Hope Ministries. These 25 years have been a time of building and growth, healing and maturing, as well as a time to repair breaches in the wall. The foundation of the ministry was laid and fortified for such a time as this. I am about to bring fulfillment far beyond what you have ever thought or imagined.
As Issac was lifted from Sarah’s womb to fulfill his calling, New Hope is now being lifted to a higher level, to fulfill it’s calling. Anointing will increase, praise and worship will become intense, and My glory will radiate, as never before in this place. Giftings and callings will blossom like nature springs forth after a bitter cold winter. You will sense a new dimension of my presence and signs and wonders will abound. Where I have added to this ministry in the past, it is now a season to move forward in all areas through multiplication.
I make this declaration to you and other churches and ministries who have not wavered from my promises, nor diluted the power of My word. I declare to you a period of three – threes.
First, there will be three years to endure hardship like a good soldier. Much hard work needs to be done for what lies ahead. With the attitude of a soldier, prepare yourselves mentally with strategies, and physically with discipline and obedience, in order to face the battles which are ahead. Recognize those who are the watchmen on the walls, and those with a prophetic voice, for they are your kinsmen.
Second, there will be three years when events and movements, within the Body of Christ, will begin to move rapidly. This is the three years of the athlete. Compete to win the prize. Recognize your strength is limited, but My strength, through you, is perfected. Compete according to the rules by living in the highest realms of purity and integrity. Make way for the evangelist, as his anointing will increase most of all. This is the unveiling of My true power and glory within the Church.
Third, there will be three years of the gardener or farmer, who has waited patiently for his crops. The harvest will be so great during this period, that it will be over-whelming, so begin to prepare now for the harvest at hand. It will surely come as I have said.
The face of southwest Florida will change drastically over this time, for it will be known to the world as “a place where My Spirit has come and settled”. Prepare for battle, and I will fight the battles. Be ready to compete, and I will assist you in your race. Make ready for the harvest, for I am bringing it forth.
