prophetic community
2010 - A year of fulfillment. Be filled fully with the Lord in this season.
The Prophetic Community is one of the Communities at the YLV. We believe the Lord speaks to us in many different ways and we want to have a place of community where we can hear the Lord together and catch His heart for our lives, as well for the lives of those around us. If you have desire to be a part of this community we encourage you to attend one of the intercession nights or our next Community Gathering.
We have a few different Prophetic Intercession Groups
Monday- 7p at the Church
Thursdays-6:30p at the Church
Classes on the Prophetic- "Angels"- Led by Teri Ballard- Thursdays at 7:30p

Prophetic Words at the YLV
MAY 25 The Lord is asking you, His people, to step into His sacred flame…He has provided this for your good and the good of the world.
You will be consumed, but not burned,
Purified, but not harmed,
You will be healed and not damaged.
He brings you the fire of His Spirit to enable you to stand against your enemies. Stand with Him in His flame.
During worship, I saw a picture of a race car, the type that drives in the Indy 500. I felt like the Lord said that it is time for a “pit stop”. Some of you have tires where there is no tread left on them. Others need an oil change and need the oil of the Holy Spirit poured into them afresh. Some of you need a new timing belt, because the Lord’s timing is way different than yours. Others need their engines tuned up to the voice of the Lord. I heard the Lord say, “You will finish the race and you will finish it well! I am the one who designed you and know exactly what you need when you need it. You will finish well. You will finish well.”
5-17 Just like seasons of the year, I too have seasons says the Lord. If I’ve called you to battle – don’t lay down your sword prematurely. Some of you are weary from long battle, and feel stretched beyond measure, but I have promised to not give you more than you can handle. When you battle, I will sustain you and when I lead you to rest, I will recover and restore your spirit.
5-2 The Lord was talking to me about honor. He reminded me of the song 'O Sacred King'. The line that says, "How can I honor you rightly? Honor that's fit for your name." He said to me, honor me by honoring each other. You cannot bring me honor if you aren't honoring each other and respecting each other. I thought about all of the things that we do, like the outreaches and all of the lives that are touched like that. He said, those are all good, but if there is not honor among each other, then you aren't serving me, but you are serving yourself. It is in big things as well as small things such as leadership respecting other leaders. Honor within our church looks like starting on time, calling when late, cleaning up after ourselves, and asking if another leader needs help in an area (serving each other). It is like when you are first in love with somebody. You consider the small things as well as the big things. That person is put at top priority. You don't think of yourself first. LOVE is your first thought. How can I show my love? How can I show this person how much I honor them. If you cannot love and honor each other then you cannot love and honor the Lord. If we lose focus of the overall picture which is Jesus and unity and honor and love, then we become self serving. We can become busy in "our own ministry" and we miss the whole point.
Then the Lord showed me a picture of the Vineyard itself. When it began it so did not want to be legalistic, and so refrained from that. Now the pendulum has swung and is now at the opposite end. I heard the word lackadaisical. We are so afraid of being called religious or legalistic that there is a fear to even confront imbalance or error (a need for correction), because by doing so then someone would look like they don't have grace. The Lord talked to me about grace. He said that he has promised that His grace is enough. That His grace will cover. Then he said that His grace is being taken advantage of. I heard the Lord talking about the difference between legalism and diligence or discipline. I hear a cry for discipline and diligence. Allow the Lord to show the imbalance or need for correction. Confront it and deal with it, while still not losing sight of our goal which is honor; honor and love and unity.
4-25 The lord is calling us to let go of some things that have held us back. If we cannot release the old, we will not be able to have enough room to hold onto the new that He is releasing. It is time for change and the longer we drag our feet and stay with the familiar, the harder it will be to see what is coming. Change brings growth and the old things fall to the ground as the new things are birthed.
MARCH - I saw a geyser shooting high with great force and at the top was a manhole cover spinning around. I asked Him about it and He said that a bunch of people here are walking along in their walk and they pass over the manhole. When they do, they remember what the manhole covers (underground sewage) and they remember it as the smelling, rotting filth that is within them. Then I heard the Lord say that He is moving through them gently enough to not tear up the ground or destroy who they are, but with enough force to clean out every crevice and all the old stagnant water within them. His clean, pure Holy water is going to push through and flow out of them.
I saw that the Lord had built a huge runway. It was then that a large passenger airline landed and the people begin to disembark. As we ran out to greet them, I heard the Lord say that this is their final destination.
I saw a giant tear from God and suddenly had an emotion of God's heart and the people He aches for. I felt that we were to pray for God's heart like that.
I saw a plumb line and it was swinging like they do right before finding the point it should settle at. However, before it would settle, the plumb line would move directly above one of the areas it was just swinging over, then start to settle there, but again would slide over to another point, and this kept continuing. The purpose of any plumb line is to be connected to a point up above, and then align itself to a point on the ground. When it does, then you mark that as the focal point...but this one was all over the place going back and forth. It was as if it lost its connection up above, and so the weight of the plumb was shifting the center.
I saw a big plowing machine, in a huge harvest field, that looked like wheat or corn. It looked like this machine is what harvested the ground, separating something.
I felt like the Lord showed me the whole area around Yorba Linda full of cattle. I saw the cattle moving about and the word I got was that they were so restless and anxious. I knew that they could be spooked at any moment. It was then that I heard a gunshot in the spirit and the cattle begin to stampede and run wildly through the area..like in an old western. Much havoc took place and yet none of the town was destroyed in the stampede. However, the hard ground that the city once stood on was broken up and softened by the stampede. I heard the Lord say that He will use situations to break up the fallow ground and then it will be so pliable for the planting. Seeders were following the stampede.
I felt like there were many people here this morning who have been robbed. You have been cheated by ex-husbands, ex-wives, friends and in business. Your children have been stolen, your creative business ideas have been stolen and the thief has come to destroy you. I saw the Lord sitting in this huge chair and I saw Him slam down this golden gavel and say, “That’s enough! Because you have chosen to not take justice into your own hands, see if I will not recompense you. I will restore all that has been taken unfairly from you. Put your own house in order and I will move on your behalf. My justice will flow down upon you like a river.
January words and pics - The enemy has sown seeds of doubt in our hearts the last three months to steal our faith and yet you have trusted in me and your faith has grown and choked out the weeds of doubt. For what the enemy intended for evil, I have used for your good to trust my covering over your life; for nothing passes through my hands that afflicts you without me knowing it. I have watched your perseverance and am pleased beyond your comprehension.
Chariots of fire are being driven across this whole nation this year.
Word from the Lord -This is going to be a season of promises fulfilled. I am going to remind you of promises I have made to you, that you have forgotten or just plain given up on. Seek Me early in the mornings. Write the promises again so that you can watch me fulfill them this year.
Picture of a ballerina and she’s doing her moves and practicing the dance steps. She is not leaning on a bar for balance, but on the Lord. He is holding her up even though she doesn’t do her moves that well – but she keeps on trying. It shows her dependence on the Lord and that we can have joy in the midst of our imperfections. He is the one who plans our outfits, our dance routines and what we are called to do and the Lord continually holds us up. It is we that trip ourselves up all the time. We often despise the things He loves and many times, we are our own worse critics. We are fearfully and wonderfully made and we need to look at us in the dance mirror to see a true reflection as to how the Lord really sees us.
I saw the Lord enter an old wooden room and there were tons of keys hanging on the wall. I saw Him watch as angels delivered the keys to different people at different times. The people were using the keys to unlock hopes, dreams, jail cells, provisions and healings for so many others. As they used the keys, the keys flew out of their hands and back onto the various hooks in the room. The Lord was just standing off to the side and smiling. He is so proud of this church.
I had a picture of the Lord pruning rose bushes. He didn’t just prune them once, but went back over them again and again. As in the natural, this is the season that rose bushes are to be trimmed. There is no way anyone would think anything would be able to grow from those bushes, because they had been so whacked, but the first blooms we will see in the springtime will be huge and carry great fragrance.
The Lord is releasing agape love once again in His church. Our heart will actually hurt when our words wound. He wants fresh water from each of the wells that are deep inside us…the wells of living water.
Picture of a lighthouse that had many windows and the windows were very clear. It sat on the edge of the ocean and was a beacon for many, but the Lord wants us to come down out of the lighthouse and begin to greet the boats loaded with people. Relationships are key this year. As we leave the safety of the lighthouse, we carry His luminescence with us. We need not fear. Take risk.
I saw us waiting on shore and huge eagles came and swooped down and carried us across huge fields white with harvest. We could not believe how many people need to see Jesus in us.
Word from the Lord -This is going to be a season where we will begin to see many angels and interact with them. Some will be angels who deliver throneroom revelation, wisdom and understanding. Some will be angels that we send to encourage, heal and minister comfort to people. Some angels will go with us in the outreaches and begin to point out the people who are going to get saved that day. Some angels will be sent as answers to your prayers. Get ready, get ready, get ready.
I saw a picture of two women in an automobile and one of them was in the back seat. Neither one was driving, but there was an angel administering an oxygen mask to the women in the back. The Lord is going to send a refreshing and fresh supply of oxygen to His body this year. This fresh breath of life will restore our hope and increase our circulation. Later we were shown that this picture was so powerful on so many different levels...for the person who received it, for our church, and for His bride. As we prayed more into the word, the Lord showed us that the picture was also actually happening, He gave us the names of the two women in the car and we also got a glimpse of partnering with Him in long distance healing.
I saw the Lord riding on a majestic white steed and racing toward His bride. I saw him pull right up along side her and lift her up into the saddle to ride behind Him. I heard Him say, “See if I will not rescue you in the day of trouble. If I am for you, who can be against you?”
I was driving down a road and looked up and for the second day I heard the lord say volcano. Saturday, I looked at it and it was blowing smoke and I heard the phrase, “the volcano will blow. Just as it gives a warning by first billowing ash and then smoke so too, am I.” I saw the lava begin to flow toward two groups of people. One group was those who trust God and the second group was those who do not trust God. The ones who do not trust went into paralyzing panic and the sword of fear pierced their heart. The ones who do trust stood back and watched with peace knowing that God is a good God. The lava flows and destroys everything in its path making a new path. There is no label as to what will be destroyed both believers and nonbelievers will be affected by this volcano. When the lava cooled I saw trees growing out of it. These trees were with bark and very strong even though they were fresh out of the lava. I saw much life come out of this lava, much green and much new plant life. The Sequoia trees I believe are the ones where the seeds are in the pods and only release the seed in high heat or fire. I heard Him say that man believes these seeds are dormant never to return; they say it has been for another time not these times; they are dead and gone. God says these seeds are not dead, and what man says will not live, I say is alive. They are coming back stronger than before and more plentiful than before. On the other side of this volcano I saw what looked like the angel of death. Man believed it to be the angel of death and went around saying so, but as I looked, it was the angel of life. There must be a death so that there may be a resurrection. He said warn the people warn the people warn the people......
December - Jesus didn't take a break...we did. :)
November words and pics:
During worship I had a picture of a huge battlefield. I saw the church on one side and the world on the other. Many of us in the church were busy looking at ourselves and admiring that we had no wounds and our uniforms were perfectly clean. Then a few of us began to notice the soldiers on the other side. They were wounded, bloodied and some of them were even on the brink of death. I heard the Lord say, “Lay down your weapons and go to them”. As we laid down our rifles and guns and began to cross the battlefield unarmed, I saw that the soldiers on the other side were stunned and quit firing at us. As we drew close to them, some of them began to get healed. Others were healed when we embraced them and we even were able to bring some of them back from the brink of death. I heard the Lord say, “I left the 99 for you, will you go for even just one of them?”
I hear the Lord saying that He is aware of our offerings and sacrifices. He knows what this costs each of us. The giving comes out of our need, to those who are in even greater need.....ones who have lost hope. He is pleased that we give of what we've received from Him. He asks that we continue to spend ourselves on Him, and on the others He will bring. As we do, He will brighten the light within us so that the lost will be able to see the way. We have been chosen to be restorers of the road that leads to His presence, and His provision. This will give aide to those who are wandering with no clear direction. The way to His kingdom is prepared in our midst. Such is the Call of His Kingdom.
I saw a bunch of grapes, as I thought about it I began to see all the different products made and things that can be done with grapes. The seeds can be planted to bring a new vines or pressed into grape seed oil. The fruit can be eaten fresh, or dried into raisins, or it can be pressed into juice then fermented into wine. I believe these grapes represent us: many different giftings (products), in one body (bunch), yet each an individual person (grape).
I saw a picture of many of us that are holding onto to a rope that feels like it will give away at any moment. The rope seems frayed and worn out. I felt the Lord say that the weight that many of us carry, is not just our own. There are many people that are hanging onto us for hope and that makes us heavy. I looked up and actually saw our arms turn into rope and we were being strengthened to hold on for others and they held onto to us. I heard the Lord say that in our weakness, He is strong. I saw Him to begin to come beneath us and lift up some of the people we had been carrying. I heard Him say, rest in Me and I will refresh you as you have refreshed others.
Great Favor is being released, as well as the Great Humility, with which to carry it.
As we worshipped this morning, I was shown an image of a large wooden yoke, the kind that is used by oxen or horses to pull heavy carts. On each side were large buckets of water. I asked the Lord if this is a picture of the yoke He has asked us to carry. He immediately changed the image by making the device disappear into the air. He said His burden is never heavy because of His Mercy. The yoke He wants for His people is made of cloth, it is a mantle for us to wear continually. It will show the world that His presence is with us wherever we go. This is a mantle of praise to carry into the world. He gives it to us as a privilege to represent Him. He offers it to us as His Royal Priesthood, to be worn forever.
10/4/09 - Word in church
The song of the Spirit is being sung over the nations.
It is the song of hope, and the nations are beginning to hear and respond. They will soon be coming to where the song is being sung.
As the nations seek to hear this song they will be blessed, and as they are blessed they will begin to sing. This song will forever be sung, as the Spirit seeks to fill the ones who will hear.
9/27/09 Pictures during worship:
I saw the throne room and our worship was playing like a station on the radio. I saw angels singing along.
I saw a picture of a person sitting in a pile of mud and mire. The person was sad and depressed; just weighed down by circumstance and heaviness. I saw two angels come on either side of the person and pick him up. They loaded him up onto what looked like some kind of a cart or chariot, like old Roman times and they took him away towards worship. I felt like it was a reminder of what worship is to us. It goes straight to the ears of the father, and it lifts our heart and spirit.
9/13/09
Things have come full circle. You have had dreams given to you that I am bringing to pass. You have had words spoken over you that are being fulfilled. You have had visions that you have seen that are coming true. For I am the God who fulfills and I will fill you fully with My presence for My glory.
8-31-09 PI words and pics for the new office location…
1) “Much favor...with God and with man.”
2) “ Neighbors in surrounding buildings are going to flock into these offices and find that this is a place of sanctuary and a lighthouse.”
3) “I saw a found bubbling up in the middle of the offices with fresh water for the thirsty. Instead of us tossing coins into the fountain and making wishes, I saw us tossing in our prayers and the Lord invited us to come and jump into the fountain to play. As we waded in the fountain, the water turned to wine and we played like children, splashing each other with love and goodness.”
4) Phil. 1:6 – Suite G – For God’s Presence, For GOODNESS, for GRACE and for GRACE
5) Life and life ABUNDANTLY
6) I saw darkness, then royal blue lightening – raining blue flashes of streaks of lightening bolts.
7) Green carpet represents a season of NEW GROWTH
8) One of the office walls had $$$ signs and light bulbs on them in the spirit: financial favor and creative ideas.
9) Reception area is larger so that more of the Lord’s ways will be received.
10) Double the size, double the portion of grace, blessing and LOVE
Phil 2:4 - Let each of you esteem and look upon and be concerned for not your own interest, but also each for the interest of others.
8-3-09 During Prophetic Intercession, I saw a picture of the Yorba Linda Vineyard. It was surrounded by cliffs and on the cliffs were "White Knights". The Knights were watching over and praying over us. As they did this, they said the phrase "Helping to set the captives free". We were helping set people free and because of this, people would be drawn to our church.
8-2-09 I saw a picture of a pasture with sheep and a shepherd. There were sheep grazing together on the inner most part of the pasture where the grass was thick, rich, and dark green. These were the believers who stayed close to the shepherd and close to each other. They were fed from the best of the pasture, the Lord's best for their lives. Just beyond the inner area there were sheep grazing on dryer, less green grass. These were the believers who were slowly drifting away from the body; so gradually that they hadn't even realized that the grass was dry and not satisfying. Just past this area of the pasture was dirt. There were sheep trying to graze, but not finding any grass there. They were wandering all about in different directions. These were the believers who had left the body, as well as those who were yet to find the body. Then I saw the shepherd with his staff pulling each one, even the resistant ones, closer to the middle with the other sheep, and where the grass was rich. He wanted all of them to feed on the best, not just a few.
7-19-09
I had a picture during worship and I saw a car engine and it was just lying in pieces all over the place. It was all taken apart. I felt like it represents how sometimes we feel that way about our hearts, and our lives, and our families and even the church. I saw the Lord go over to each piece of that car engine and pick up the pieces, and begin to wash off the gunk and I saw Him begin to get rid of the metal shavings and begin to put back together that car engine. I heard Him say, “ I am the Master Mechanic and I am rebuilding according to my design. Just watch, you will go faster and further than ever before”.
My love for you is much greater. My love for you is much greater. Much greater than the pain that you are in. Much greater than the fears that you have. Much greater. My love for you is so much greater.

This morning the Lord showed me a vision of the crown that He wears in the heavens. It is a beautiful gold circle of radiant brilliance. The outer surface is covered with an amazing collection of gem stones that have a source of dazzling light inside. He let me see the surface of the crown from every angle of view as the image turned, the jewels appeared to change or morph into another display of jewels. No picture was the same as it was in the former view. Each turn of the crown was a unique composition. He said that He fashioned each jewel from rough gem stones. He cut the shape of the jewel into these beautiful forms to show the inner brilliance. Then he asked me to look closer at each one of the facets of His gems. The image projected by the surface was a face, the faces of His people. The faces of the ones in this building this morning, faces of all the ones in all the churches who are called by His name…..all our faces. He placed the crown on His head and said “These will always be close to me….forever.”
June 7- Words is church:
Miners in the old days mining gold and silver were totally captivated when they came upon opals, that they would give up everything in pursuit of the stone; a stone that was nowhere near as valuable as gold and silver. They were mesmerized by the opals changing colors. The thing about opals is that there are no two alike and they can be really different types: milk opals that are almost white, fire opals that are full of colors or blue Australian opals. I felt God was saying that He is so captivated by us as individuals regardless of the color or flaws. Some of us may wish we were more of a fire opal or milk opal, but God sees us as uniquely beautiful in just the color that we are. He puts everything aside to search us out.
I kept seeing many different types of leaves falling from many different types of trees. They just kept coming down landing on a few of the people; Sean and Christy were some of them. I see many leaves from many trees being placed on them. The leaves represent many nations and the leaves are many layers thick, meaning many seasons. It is like a compost pile on top of you.... all over you...and the leaves have begun to breakdown and intermingle; just like a compost pile gets when it begins to get hot, very hot! The heat allows the breakdown process so that it may become rich soil. I hear the Lord say...it is this soil, full of nutrients that I will spread among the earth to feed the nations so that they too will be strong and healthy. Be not afraid of the heat, be not afraid of the breakdown, for without it you will just be a pile of leaves. I see Christy covered in this compost and as I look closer, I see that in this compost there is seed like stuff, (life) in the mix and you are covered in it. Every stop you make in your travels, some of these seeds fall off of you. I hear the words shaking and loosening.
I saw the Lord as a waiter with a tray of Hors d’oevres. He was handing them out to each of us during worship. Inside of them were such delicious things as hope, encouragement, trust, and breakthrough. I heard Him say that I have not forgotten the promises I have given you. I have spoken words over you this past week, this last year, 5 years ago, 10 years ago, 20 years ago and even words were spoken over you in the womb. I have not forgotten them and I will do it. So today I tell you to press on and persevere, because my promises are TRUE! I will bring them to pass.
MAY –Words in church:
The Lord declares this morning that He has inscribed His name upon the hearts of those who choose to have it. This inscription can never fade away. it is there forever because it is by His hand, that it was placed there. Because you bear His name, you have the power He has given to reach out to those who are lost: that are hungry, that are thirsty, and that are not clothed. He gives you His resources to reach them. The well will never run dry, the stables will never be barren, and His resources will never be depleted. He is there for you. He is there for them. He asks that you reach out in His power. He has given you the hands to touch, the eyes to see, the voices to speak, with His power in His name.
I saw a picture of a baby nursing his mother, and I thought, of course it’s Mother’s Day. Then I remembered El Shaddai, our Lord, the breasted one. We are a people who are called to be so dependent on our Father, the way that a newborn is dependent on its Mother for comfort, security, and nourishment.
During worship I had a vision of a dry, dry valley. The valley was dry and cracked and parched. Inside me a great expectation began to rise, and I opened my mouth and then breathed in. I could smell the rains coming. It started to rain just slightly. The rain started falling heavier and heavier. As I watched the gullies grow into rivers, flowers and trees started to grow. The rains kept coming in waves, and waves, and waves. I believe that God is saying THE TIME IS NOW.
As we were singing King of Kings and Lord of Lords earlier, I got a picture in the Spirit of the King standing at his royal throne extending the golden scepter. I believe the Lord is saying this morning whatever we need, whatever we need, He is the one that will provide, He is the one that will provide. So He is extending the golden scepter for whatever it is we need so receive from the Lord.
April 19 -Words and pictures during church:
Today is a new day. I am bringing forth spring in your hearts. As fresh as dawn, and as bright and clear as the afternoon, so will be the life that I am pouring into you and that will flow through you. Although the winter has felt long and cold, I say no more! The ice melts now!
During worship the lord showed me a BIG heart and out of the heart came a key. The Lord gave me this key and I was told that this key can open every door in my Father's kingdom. The Lord spoke to me and said, "What is mine is yours! My kingdom belongs to you! This is your home! Dwell in it and live in it with me! The more you take from my kingdom, the bigger the kingdom gets". I saw many doors that opened to heavenly supernatural gifts, gifts of all kinds. There were gifts that I never thought were mine to take. Once I reached out and took that gift, it was multiplied; but these gifts only came through love. Without love, we were not able to use them. That is why the key came from the Father’s heart of love. We must take this key out of love and not out of our own selfishness.
April 17 -A word from the Malaysia Missionaries:
God is birthing something in the YLV. This will be a year of GREAT FAVOR. You are also in a season of GREAT ABUNDANCE! The Shekinah cloud of glory is going to fall in this ministry. Gods says follow the cloud for that is His presence. Many won’t follow the cloud, but you follow the Lord. Puzzle pieces are missing but as you follow the cloud and let the glory cloud come in, the pieces will fall into place. Greater signs, wonders, miracles, healings, peoples are coming….REVIVAL. Supernatural wisdom will be yours during this great expansion of ministry. You are not walking in anyone else's shadow, but your own.
April 17 -The Lord said He is creating a way-station here in our midst, in this place. This will be an oasis for the sojourners of His family. They will come...
to be rested and refreshed,
to get their bearings for continuing their journey,
to find respite from their tasks, and
to find comfort from His body. Above all, they will find His presence afresh as they worship in the freedom He has given us. Welcome them, as you welcome your own.
April 12 - I saw a picture of a huge refrigerator freezer and I saw the Lord reach in and take some of us out and set us on the counter to defrost. I felt like He was saying that He is going "to thaw our hearts, melt away our fears and bring out the fullness of the flavor of Him in us. It's time...it's time...it's time to love again."
April 5 - At the start of worship God gave me a picture, here it is:
I see hearts being opened by the Lords hands. The heart is like rich soil prepared with nutrients needed for what the Lord is about to plant.
I see the Lord place a single seed in some hearts. In some hearts He is placing a few seeds of the same kind. Yet, in others I see Him placing many seeds of different kinds.
Gently the Lord covers the seeds and I see Him closing the heart
I hear Him say.... "I have prepared you for this season of planting. You WILL burst forth in growth. What I have placed inside of you, I will make grow and mature. Be confident that what I have given, cannot be taken away by any person or any circumstance. Some will grow to be very tall and full trees providing cool shade from the heat. Some grow as vines providing fruit to replenish the weak. Others will be be used as lumber for supplies in the army- but ALL will give to the kingdom.
March 29 – Watch as I prepare my bride. I will pour the oil of my Spirit on you. I will perfume you with the fragrance of my love. I will cover you in the holiness of my presence. For in that day, all eyes will be upon my bride…but you will only have eyes for Me.
March 25 - Just Do It! Fulfill the vision…stop watching it and waiting for it to happen. You need to put work into the vision, to fulfill the vision. I’ve put people in your path to help you fulfill the vision, so that it can come to full birth. I’m giving you all the pieces to the puzzle. Put the pieces together. Can you see the real need?
Our young adults hear Him, too! Here are some of the words they have received in the young adult prophetic class:
My promise is to fulfill your desires of your heart. I have given you a passion to rejoice through sweet melodies of your love. I have given you a longing for freedom and it will flow from your mouth.
I have created a life for you, an adventure of self -exploration. You may often think of heaven, but know that I am never far; the richness and fruitfulness and tranquility can all be found. It’s about finding a balance; about finding Me. Know that I am everywhere, even in Africa.
Can you see? I’ve got a river of life flowing through you. Go yonder, young friend to encourage and inspire. I know your desire, dear one. Keep your eyes on me even when a new acquaintance enters the room. Don’t turn your love from me, with this new acquaintance. It’s just so, my pearl, that I’ve been here this whole time, for I am the omnipotent one. I have known what you call “this incredible atmosphere”, but don’t you know there is more? There is more…there is more. Because you are delighted in…there is more.
Have patience, there has been an explosion of angelic protection around you. He has been consistent with your protection, but He is renewing the battle lines. This burning will cause a loud crackling that will, in turn, cause it to be contagious. This is a skill that He alone has, so back off and allow Him to move.
The view is one of beauty. Rest and relax. Surrender your cares to me and My peace will be bestowed upon you. It is the end of a trial. Your new destination will be made clear. The rippled water represents renewal. Be comforted, my child, for I love and care for you more than you can imagine.
He has made you as a guardian, with a fierceness and strength that proves nobility. Your integrity has allowed you chiefly position. Beware of pride that is your own. Know that the ownership and responsibility is not yours, but His alone.
Life is sometimes messy, but allow the lessons learned in your times of imperfection to be a torch that guides you into a new time. A child-like time awaits you. A time for fun will come. It will be like a sweet summer day with soft wind. Enjoy the time and allow yourself to have fun. Don’t allow yourself to get caught up in the crunchy junk that life sometimes throws at you.
I will give you strength to fight for your desires. I will give you hope for their freedom. For I have already given you a longing passion for love and peace and may the rainbow be a symbol of remembrance of it.
Look for those that have been discarded. Their hearts are lost and undone and the world has left them behind. They feel so lost and so dirty; but know this my daughter, they have an owner and it is Me. I will penetrate their souls and melt their hearts through you.
3/15/09 Picture in church - When we were worshiping I opened my eyes and saw that we were standing in ankle deep water. . . . living water. The water kept slowly inching up in depth. I saw a statue, much like the one in Rio rise up out of the water and become enormous and felt the Holy Spirit say, "As you increase Jesus in your life, the living waters will begin to pour. Soon you will be swimming".
3/3/09 Picture in church I saw a person getting ready to play a game where there are dots all over a graph. In the game you are supposed to draw lines one at a time with an opponent. When you draw the last line of a square, you get to initial that place as yours. I saw that the person was starting the game from a place of defeat and I heard them say, “Why should I play? I never get to claim that many squares with my initials? Then I saw some of the squares had J in them for Jesus and places were strategically highlighted where the player was supposed to make his/her next move. Then I heard the Lord say to stop playing this game of life from a place of defeat and play from the offensive. It’s your turn to make the goal shot or score the touchdown. He is there to help you!
2/22/09 - This morning the Lord showed me a vision during worship. I saw several pieces of clay pottery lying in a grouping on the ground. Each of these vessels was damaged, stained, cracked, or splattered with dirt. Then the Lord said that these pieces were likened to His people in this fellowship. He knows each one, and has seen how we can be used. He then picked up each vessel, one by one, and dipped them into His river below. When He lifted them out of the water, they had a new appearance. Each one was now a beautiful crystal chalice. This is how we appear in His eyes. The light of His spirit shines through the crystal edges and is visible to the World around this area. His presence is brought to the attention of people who don’t know Him. He used these chalices to pour water onto the ground at His feet. He said He will cause growth to occur everywhere the water reaches, life giving water, healing water, purifying water.
2/22/09 -Picture in church: I saw a sprinter getting ready for a race but he kept looking back at the hurdle that he knocked down in the last race. Then I heard the Lord say SO WHAT! SO WHAT ! I then saw the sprinter running the race and when he came to the hurdle, I saw two large angels on both sides of the hurdle help him over it. I heard the Lord say, “That’s my favor on my people. I’m training my people to be sprinters in the spirit. Just as a sprinter has to recover from an event and prepare for the next event; we, too must get in His presence to recover, refill, and refuel.
1/18/09 Picture given in church – I saw a picture of a person walking down the street. The person unknowingly stepped in a big piece of gum. As he tried to take the next step, his foot stuck to the ground and couldn’t get free. He struggled and struggled and finally stopped and stood still. When he did, then the Lord came with a big scraper and scraped the bottom of his shoe free. The gum is the situation that you have unknowingly stepped into, and now that you are there, you find it hard to get out of it. I heard the Lord say, “Fear not my child. The struggle is over. I am here today to set you free.
1/11/09 Word in church - There is no measure of good deeds. No amount of accomplishments. There is no way to earn or deserve the love, mercy, and grace that I have for you. What I have for you, I give freely. Come and eat and drink of me. Hunger and thirst no more. Quit striving. Come and enjoy all that I have for you.
Second word - Come back to me. Look once again on my throne. Keep your eyes on me and never take them off of me, for my love for you is pure and unending. My hands of mercy will never leave you, and my heart of compassion will "always" flow for you.
No Matter--- I Love You
1/3/09 Word for the conference in Cleveland, Ohio
The time is here for the great gates to be opened, to welcome those outside
The presence of the LORD will shine through you, into the streets of your communities.
He will draw them into the walls of your fellowship.
The famine of their spirits will be brought to an end as they gather with you.
As you worship, He will bring healing.
As you declare His truth, He will restore hope.
As you honor His Name, He will cause reconciliation.
As you bow down, He will lift up your spirits.
Open wide the entry To the Lord of Glory.
Let His light be seen among you.
12/28/08 Word in church - My son is gift to you. And yet, I tell you, you are gift to me. When I open your hearts and receive your praise, your worship, your love and the very essence of who you are, I am filled with great joy. You are gift to me.
PROPHETIC CLASS - Our 4 week prophetic class in October was so powerful! We are now meeting twice a month on the second and fourth Mondays of every month to go deeper with the Lord and build up our prophetic community. Here is a taste of what He showed us:
11-10-08 Words…words…and more words…
An explosion of worship in the Tabernacle consuming the praises of His people; sparking revival with intensity, roaring with the very breath of God and sparking ignitors to go forth as bright lights in the kingdom. I speak life to you, a new beginning. I will restore your hope and give you fullness of joy. I am your peace, your Prince, for your heart rests in peaceful adoration in my presence. I will restore beauty for ashes, and we will soar to the heavens together. I smile over you and cover you in gentleness and grace…For you are my love and this is my promise.
There is simplicity in resting quietly with the Lord. He is my Shepherd who leads me safely to green pastures. Oh, what life, what peace is found when my thoughts are upon Him. Oh, what freedom, what protection I have as I rest in the shelter of His Presence.
All my senses are awakened by His presence. The Lord is powerful and mighty…a wonder and mystery; peaceful and still, He is amazing LIFE. He has made us spirit filled and He is incredible.
This rustic gate has been well built and is closed and locked. The gate has strength to keep what is behind it in, or what does not belong in…out. It will open with a key and what is behind it, will then known. I give you the keys to the Kingdom.
Increase your understanding, praise, and prayer for Me. I will increase your understanding, peace, freedom and completeness. Through the Holy Spirit you will feel my presence. You find beauty in solitude. Confirmation is found through all of the above.
I will give a new day filled with freedom, Holy Spirit, beauty, praise, solitude, understanding, presence, prayer, peace, completeness, and confirmation.
Being seen as salt and light, share God’s glory and direction. Be ready, for your end could be near; share the gospel in strength and warmth.
I have put you on a path that will change your life. This path will bring you freedom and comfort. The angels will bring you companionship as you travel. The beauty of My blessings will bring you Peace and you will feel the warmth of my love.
You are my watchman as you intentionally posture yourself to catch the wind of my Spirit. From morning to sunset, I have set you free to flow with Me as you respond to My movement. Your life is deliberately poised to receive from Me.
Softly flowing in the breeze, full of warm sunshine, rooted, but yet movable. Colorful and bright, perfect and peaceful. Uniquely growing free and wild, each one of you - Special.
On a road trip to the Promised Land.
Through hunger you reach up and find the solitude and nourishment you need. As you set yourself apart and above the common things, you can rise above and enter into my freedom. Your movement from there to here is a choice. It’s all relative.
During busy times in life, your direction is often on overload. You are always in a hurry. If you take time to wait on Me, people around you will not go unnoticed. Your destiny is not crowded with buildings and places you have to be. Take time for Me, as I am using you as a light post to many.
Pictures & Words for our church - received from Prophetic class - 10/27/08
I saw a keyhole. I felt that the Lord was saying that He has given many people a key that will open this door. All the keys are different, yet the all fit! Many people will come, each with a key of their own. Each one is needed.
The keyhole is to the door of the Lord's presence - an intimacy in power - a door once opened...no man can shut. I also felt that this would bring a new intimacy to the body and through this - Unity.
I felt that the Lord was setting up a DIRECT TV system in this church and that the activity of the Lord will be released around the world from this place. The connection of things that are going up and down will be revealed by the "why" questions. Eventually the Lord is going to stabilize and BUILD. I encourage you to stand with Christy NOW as it will affect the whole Vineyard church.
I saw a slide - like the kind you see in a playground - but it was in our sanctuary.
"What others intended for evil, I will use for good."
I saw a picture of a giant thick tree that went up into the sky. And then there was a crack in it (like someone had used a metal rod and jammed it into one spot) and the tree split down the middle all the way to the top. Then the tree wilted over into two pieces. But all it took was a little crack for it to split the whole giant strong tree. The Lord said, (before I saw the picture) that "you will no longer have split trees." I also noticed that the tree may have wilted, but the roots were still strong and deep. While it was a lot that fell, you still have something to grow off of.
The Lord wants to woo His people back to Him and He wants to do that through the Yorba Linda Vineyard. The Lord will be able to shine through us, reaching believers and nonbelievers.
I feel that the Lord is saying that He is going to use this church in a new way for healing and prophesying. That the old is to be made new. Young people are going to do miracles and doors are going to open in new realms that the church has never seen before. We are going to carry on a new legacy that will spread like wildfire.
Remember how the mustard seed is the smallest seed but becomes the greatest tree of refuge in the Kingdom of God? YLV is like that seed. It may seem insignificant and vulnerable in some ways, but it is growing into a place of comfort for many.
Streams of Justice will be running through our church; flowing out of the doors. It will cause compassion for the needy to overflow into our community and our neighborhoods. This will bring a spiritual vitality to the region.
I saw a picture of a window halfway open. There was a bar stopping the window from being open all the way. The Lord is saying you have (the church) been receiving just enough, but I want to give you more. I am breaking the bar and the window is going to be fully open. My Spirit is going to come like a mighty rushing wind and all those who have been asking for more will get more than they asked for.
I see a garden with varied types of plants. Do not fear when the Lord comes. For some He will till the soil so that the water of the Spirit will go deep and the roots will be strong. For some He will gently remove the brambles of over growth so that you will be clear. And for some He will protect and allow to absorb the sun/ the water and the wind.
I saw a picture of flashing lights/ white, large ones. They were spinning around like emergency ones but not colored. When I ask the Lord what they meant, I think that He explained that He will use us to rescue the people in crisis, in need...to connect them with whatever they are in desperate need of.
I got the words Church of Compassion (Come Passion). I saw a man who's weak. He has a wooden pole that he's leaning on and now I see someone who doesn't have trouble with this weakness standing by that man on the other side of the pole. The man has someone else to stand with him. (Come passion)
I saw a pillow with someone resting on the pillow. Then I felt the person resting on the pillow represented this body. God's call is to rest in Him. Then I heard this..."I have begun a good work and strings of things are going to happen. One after another to build up, encourage and direct this body. There will be some winds of change in this string. As things happen, trust in Me. Rest in Me (as the one on the pillow) and go with the flow. Your leaders will have the wisdom to protect.
Word received FOR the church on 10-15-08 - I have seen your faithfulness in keeping holy the Sabbath and the purity of the temple for my Spirit to meet with you. There has been no turning or compromise in your covenant with Me.
As you continue together, I will establish your meetings as a House of Praise for the nations, a place of gathering of the tribes, and a source of refreshing for the ones I’ve called.
The communion I offer has been received and is always within you. As you step forward, My Spirit is beside you. This will be confirmed by the light I have put into your eyes. Let others see my presence in you. I will be your courage and your strength.
Words received in church after worship:
10-12-08 - I saw Jesus walking through the aisles in front of all the people. He was dressed in a robe of gold and cream. His hands where dripping with oil the color of gold/yellow, with gold pieces in it. He was looking for peoples’ hands to be in that receiving position and He would place His hands over it while the oil dripped on the peoples’ hands. The oil seemed to be in a container of some kind and the oil seemed divided in color. Half yellow/gold and half clear. I felt like He was commissioning some people to healing but not just healing, but also taking away what they where holding on to. I felt like those were the people to receive the oil.
Jesus said "each drop will heal the wounds of your heart, as you fix your eyes on Me. I will wash away the stains that keep you from seeing Me. I will cleanse you from within so that you may be free to be who I have called you to be. I asked him "Lord how do we do that when things are so uncertain?” The Lord spoke to me and said, " Don’t you know how much I love you? Don’t you know that the cross has set you free from the things of this earth? I am the way the truth and the life. Look to Me, Look at Me, Keep your eyes on Me. Do not take your eyes off of Me, and everything else will wash away. Look to Me and all of the burdens that keep you in fear will be washed away!
10-12-08 -
The shaking is from Me. I am shaking the Kings and the Kingdoms of this world. You will watch those that man built, fall to the ground around you. But do not fear for I have you planted firmly on my rock, and I am holding on to you. You have place in my Kingdom. You are seated in heavenly places with Me and I will never, ever let you go.
Word in church - 9/21/08 I saw the big giant eye of God I heard the lord say I see everything, I see your yesterdays, I see your todays and I see your tomorrows. I see each one of you,you are special to me. Do you see Me ? Do you see what I want from you ? I WANT YOUR WHOLE HEART!
John 12:24-26 " I tell you the truth, unless a kernal of wheat falls to the ground and dies , it remains only a single seed. But if it dies, it produces many seeds. The man who loves his life will lose it, while the man who hates his life in this world will keep it for eternal life. Whoever serves me must follow me; and where I am my servant also will be
9/14/08 I saw a huge crowd of people...us laying down palm branches and coats to usher in the King. The palm branches represent the fruit of our labor or what we do. The coats represent the things we call "mine." The crowd of people laid both down, giving them up for the King to walk on.
This act represented us giving up what we would call our own identity, our own work, our own accumulated wealth for Him and His glory. It began with Him and we give it back to Him without reservation.
Then I felt that part of what we hold back from Him is not so obvious. We hold on to unforgiveness. Are we willing to forgive the ones that have harmed us and give to Him our hold on them? Are we willing to give Him our hurts and wounds? For Him to heal rather than for us to forever cover them up by a false and selfish (fearful) protection? Are we willing to let down our walls of protection? The false covers that keep us from intimacy with Him and from others? Will we press through to the place He longs for us to go?
Part of the laying down of what we do and what we call mine is on the inside too and not just the outside things that we obviously see. Will the people go to that place? It is right there--a heartbeat and a breath away. He is already right here. Will we respond to His invitation? The invitation is sealed with Jesus’ blood and contains His signature. Redeeming the invitation is made possible by the power of His Spirit--to make the transition into the place He is calling us to go. All His efforts lead us back to Him...point us in his direction. Will we respond?
Word in church 9/07/08 – I saw a bunch of trees. I think that they were a lot like some of us. There were some that were in a summer season and were so dry and thirsty…they just needed to be watered by the Lord. Then there were others who is in a season of fall and had lost everything, all those things around them that had brought security and that they were familiar to them. There were others that were in a season of winter and felt so dead and barren. Then there were others who were in a season of spring and they had new growth in them, but didn’t know how to deal with it. I heard the Lord say that no matter the season, don’t look on the outside of the trees. If you keep the soil of your heart soft, I am growing My roots and your roots deep in me. Life is on the inside.
7/20/08 Today in church, I saw that there are many who are of the “spiritual” tribe of Levi. They have come wearing breastplates like Aaron’s, only the stones that are in their breastplates represent their families, their spouses, their children, their grandchildren, their nieces, their nephews, their aunts, their uncles, their friends and their co-workers. The Lord says that when you come to Him in worship and prayer, He blesses those people through you. “So be encouraged. Continue to walk with them in their burdens, their griefs and their sorrows; and celebrate their joys and their successes. For if you carry them, then I will surely carry you.”
7/13/08 As you walk on a dirt road, you shake the dirt from your sandals and as you do you trip onto a cactus. You stand up and notice you are full of needles. You have a choice, you could try to pull them off yourself that will cause a lot of pain or you could let me take them off. If you let me, the pain will be less, I will make sure to clean the deep infection and you won't even have scars left. But today you must make the choice.
6/23/08 - Last week the Lord gave me a picture of a compass. This week He said "set your hearts to the true north. For I am the true north. On a compass the dial always points to the N. I tell you Set your hearts on Me, I will set your life on the path that I have for you. Open your eyes and look! See where I have placed you. Do you not see? That is Me in the middle of the road. It is not a road block but Me with arms stretched out, ready to receive and embrace you."
6/8/08 I saw a tornado like shape blow from the West to the East. I felt like the Lord said "A Wind tunnel is coming. It is the winds of change. Chairs will be turned over, people will be frightened, lives will change. I will purify hearts. Do not stand against the wind and try and make it through, but go with the wind. Let go of all inhibitions, let go of everything, let go of your beliefs. Know that I am in the midst of this wind, Know that I will make right the wrong's, I will restore you as a people, I will cause all of this and I will bring you through it. Fear not and know that I AM GOD!
5/25/08-
I had a picture of a cargo plane flying over the Orange County area. As I looked closer, I saw that Jesus was flying the plane. I watched as He pulled the switch that opened the hatch in the back and I saw angels dropping boxes of supplies to each church in the area. I saw that the number of the boxes depended on the cries of the people in the church. So I asked the Lord what about the Yorba Linda Vineyard. Then I saw the angels shove out this huge pallet with lots of boxes on it. The pallet had "provisions and resources" written on the side of it. I saw boxes that had gifts for the children on them, boxes labeled tools, boxes full of worship music sheets, boxes full of food, boxes full of body parts, boxes full of money. I saw the Holy Spirit riding on top of the pallet and I heard Him say, I will help you open these. There were so many boxes and the Lord said that there was enough for us, and for everyone else outside of the church. The Lord said that there is an abundance, there is an abundance! I heard the Lord say you won't be able to see the boxes if you are looking down at your present circumstances...so look up because your redemption is drawing near.
April 08- Prophetic Intercession
The Lord begin to show us that So. Cal used to be known for its oranges and orange groves. The land had been full of them and the fragrance of the groves was awesome as well as the sweetness of the oranges. Then the land had been used for other things and the groves were uprooted. We saw that the Lord was beginning to "reseed" So. Cal. He was going to plant it again with purpose because the soil was so ready now. The seeds He was planting were going to grow so very fast - like in a time warp and the trees were going to be so full of blossoms that the fragrance would travel everywhere. We had pictures of people that were so self-protective that the doors and the windows of their houses were locked shut; but the Lord showed us that just like orange blossoms, His fragrance was so awesome that it was going to leak into their houses through tiny cracks in the windows and doors. Then we saw people throw open their doors and windows to receive more fragrance. The trees had deep root systems and the fruit that is being produced in So-Cal will once again go worldwide. The label for the fruit was "Son-kissed".
Word for/at "The Cause"
The Lord is seeking those who will step into His sacred flame...they will be consumed but not burned, they will be engulfed but not harmed. They will be overcome but not injured. With the power of His holy fire they will be sent to testify for Him. They will ignite fires inside of those they encounter simply by their presence. They are bringers of the light into the dark places in the community. The wildfire of the Spirit will spread into the people they come in contact with. The fire of the Lord will cause purity and passion within those who step into the flame. He will give His power to those who will carry His presence into the streets, and then his fire will fall.
