The Winds of Change

There are changes or shifts taking place in the body of Christ in Germany (note: and also other nations), because God is sending His winds for this time which bring change (see Hebrews 1:7).
 
Hebrews 1:7:
7 In speaking of the angels he says (see Psalm 104:4), “He makes his angels spirits, and his servants flames of fire.”
 
God is sending His angels to change our atmosphere.
When the angels of God find trees of righteousness in the earth then Jesus Christ will break forth (see Psalm 1:3 i.c.w. Jeremiah 17:7-8).
 
Psalm 1:3:
3 That person is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither-whatever they do prospers.
 
Jeremiah 17:7-8:
7 “But blessed is the one who trusts in the Lord, whose confidence is in him.
8 They will be like a tree planted by the water that sends out its roots by the stream. It does not fear when heat comes; its leaves are always green. It has no worries in a year of drought and never fails to bear fruit.”
 
This spiritual shift is not just limited to a single region, church or ministry, because it is about the unified bride of Christ, in which Jesus is causing breakthrough.
 
THE LORD OF BREAKTHROUGHS
 
It is about “Baal-Perazim“, the LORD OF BREAKTHROUGHS, who is Jesus Christ Himself and who wants to move through us.
If we allow the movement of His presence to move through us, and if we allow the angels sent by God to bring our spirits into movement, we will be part of the breakthrough and also announce it, as it happened in the time of David through the wind in the poplar trees, when the Philistines came up against him a second time (see 2 Samuel 5:20-24).
 
2 Samuel 5:20-24:
20 So David went to Baal Perazim, and there he defeated them. He said, “As waters break out, the Lord has broken out against my enemies before me.” So that place was called Baal Perazim.
21 The Philistines abandoned their idols there, and David and his men carried them off.
22 Once more the Philistines came up and spread out in the Valley of Rephaim; 23 so David inquired of the LORD, and he answered, “Do not go straight up, but circle around behind them and attack them in front of the poplar trees.
24 As soon as you hear the sound of marching in the tops of the poplar trees, move quickly, because that will mean the Lord has gone out in front of you to strike the Philistine army.”
 
The Cooperation of the Winds of God with the Present Knowledge in the Earth
 
When God sends His angels to us which are winds, they take what we have found and understood in the word of God and move with it in order to fill the atmosphere surrounding us with the presence of God; this guides people towards experiencing their breakthrough.
This very presence works breakthroughs in the hearts of people.
God is not only a God of breakthrough, but of breakthroughs!
 
Moments of Awakening
 
He is also a God who brings about moments of awakening in the hearts of people who thought He would come to them in a manner they are familiar with.
But if Jesus Christ determines a time of change within His church in accordance with the Father and the Holy Spirit, He appears in a new and unexpected way; this will lead to an awakening in the hearts of people to renew every single cell in its (note: the churchs) organism (see Matthew 14:25-27 i.c.w. Luke 24:13-16; Acts 1:3).
 
Matthew 14:25-27:
25 Shortly before dawn Jesus went out to them, walking on the lake.
26 When the disciples saw him walking on the lake, they were terrified. “It’s a ghost,” they said, and cried out in fear.
27 But Jesus immediately said to them: “Take courage! It is I. Don’t be afraid.”
 
Luke 24:13-16:
13 Now that same day two of them were going to a village called Emmaus, about seven miles from Jerusalem.
14 They were talking with each other about everything that had happened.
15 As they talked and discussed these things with each other, Jesus himself came up and walked along with them; 16 but they were kept from recognizing him.
 
Acts 1:3:
3 After his suffering, he presented himself to them and gave many convincing proofs that he was alive. He appeared to them over a period of forty days and spoke about the kingdom of God.
 
You cannot stop Jesus!
 
Jesus Christ will work this change or shift the way He wants and will not be stopped by any man, even if they oppose His plan.
He moves into His house and turns it into a house of prayer which means a house of true love relationship with the Heavenly Father (see Matthew 21:12-13).
 
Matthew 21:12-13:
12 Jesus entered the temple courts and drove out all who were buying and selling there. He overturned the tables of the money changers and the benches of those selling doves. 13 “It is written,” he said to them (see Isaiah 56:7), “ ‘My house will be called a house of prayer,’ but you are making it ‘a den of robbers.’”
 
Put Your Feet Under the Right Table
 
Where in His house have we positioned ourselves? What is our heart attitude?
Under which table have we put our knees or feet?
Is it the table of King David or is it Saul's table?
We may be "handicapped" as a result of an adverse circumstance in the past and still put our feet under King David's table which means that God is using us for His honour (see 2 Samuel 9:1-3.6-8.10b).
 
2 Samuel 9:1-3.6-8.10b:
1 David asked, “Is there anyone still left of the house of Saul to whom I can show kindness for Jonathan’s sake?”
2 Now there was a servant of Saul’s household named Ziba. They summoned him to appear before David, and the king said to him, “Are you Ziba?” “At your service,” he replied.
3 The king asked, “Is there no one still alive from the house of Saul to whom I can show God’s kindness?” Ziba answered the king, “There is still a son of Jonathan; he is lame in both feet.” …
6 When Mephibosheth son of Jonathan, the son of Saul, came to David, he bowed down to pay him honour. David said, “Mephibosheth!” “At your service,” he replied.
7 “Don’t be afraid,” David said to him, “for I will surely show you kindness for the sake of your father Jonathan. I will restore to you all the land that belonged to your grandfather Saul, and you will always eat at my table.”
8 Mephibosheth bowed down and said, “What is your servant, that you should notice a dead dog like me?” …
… 10b And Mephibosheth, grandson of your master, will always eat at my table.”
 
Even where people dropped us like a „hot potato“ when we thought they would look after us, the call of Jesus goes out to come to His table for true fellowship with the Heavenly Father (see 2 Samuel 4:4 i.c.w. John 14:6).
 
2 Samuel 4:4:
4 Jonathan son of Saul had a son who was lame in both feet. He was five years old when the news about Saul and Jonathan came from Jezreel. His nurse picked him up and fled, but as she hurried to leave, he fell and became disabled. His name was Mephibosheth.
 
John 14:6:
6 Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
 
Hope and Help
 
There is hope connected to help!
This is help connected to a call or calling to come closer and to sit at the table of the king of David.
Where we feel limited in our relationship with God or feel we are limited in our vision, a call comes from a higher realm of authority to dine with the king; this helps us to fully grasp the meaning of relationship with authority.
Jesus first trained His disciples in this relationship with authority which means Him as the Son of God.
 
Amen and Amen.

Dear Ascending Ones,
 
last Sunday, the Spirit of God began to release a Holy Fire in our midst.

“I am building a fire around you. Let My fire penetrate infirmity, poverty, and confusion! Open your eyes and see the fire-bringers! Once you have ascended into heaven, My angelic messengers are following you bringing fire, so join Me in building a fire around about you. I am bringing candles and lampstands. I am building a fire around you that will quench the enemy’s voice. The fire that I am sending has a cadence about it. This fire will march on your behalf!  My fire will pave the way and clear the briers of your past. This will now enable you to enter into your destiny in a way you couldn’t even see in other seasons.
“Because of the unforgiveness in your heart, I haven’t been able to light you fully. Turn back to Me so I can light you in a new way. Know that I am the God that answers by fire! Be lit today! Burn for Me today! Watch Me come down and deliver you from poverty and sickness! Watch the explosions and outbursts during this month! I will bring down something greater than every fire set against My will. Watch the patterns of the fires throughout the earth, until spring. I am cleaning away the debris of winter in My people’s hearts. Watch the fires, for they are beginning to burn! Things that were fire-retardant and resisted the fire of the last season will not be able to resist this fire! I am about to consume things you never thought could be consumed. The Fire of Heaven has been unlocked. Now receive the fire of change!”  (Chuck D. Pierce, Shatece McLeod, Chad Foxworth, James Vincent)
 
Blessings,
 

Being Ready For The New Season
 
Every time when God is opening up a new season for His church it is important for the people of God to be ready for the move of the Holy Spirit bringing transformation in the earth realm.
This transformation is linked to the greater glory like a caterpillar being transformed into a butterfly at the right time.
 
As Jesus came as a human being into the earth realm at God's appointed time change began to happen in the house of God by the presence of the greater light (see John 1:1-5).
 
John 1:1-5:
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
2 He was with God in the beginning.
3 Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made.
4 In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind.
5 The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.
 
=> In the beginning was the word. This passage of the verse goes back to eternity, when God created everything, namely what we see and also what we do not see. Everything was created by the Word.

The Word was with God. The second part of the verse goes further back to a time when nothing had been created. Even at this time the Word was with God.

The Word was God. The third part of the verse goes back even further to a time when the Word was God before the Word came out of God.

Since the Word of God is called in John 1:4 a person (“Him”), one can recognize that the Word is a person. And this person is Jesus Christ, the Son of God. He is the life and light of men (see John 8:12).
 
John 1:4:
4 In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind.
 
John 8:12:
12 When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.”
 
Jesus Christ is the Word that came from God, the Word that was with God and the Word through which everything was created, both the visible and the invisible. He is the image of the invisible God, the reflection of the Father and the glory of God. At this point we are talking about Jesus as He was before He came to earth. This person, the Word, came into the world that was created by Him and to a people to whom He gave light (life), but the people didn't recognize Him (see John 1:9-10).
 
John 1:9-10:
9 The true light that gives light to everyone was coming into the world.
10 He was in the world, and though the world was made through him, the world did not recognize him.
This Word became flesh and took the form of human flesh to live among us.
This word was born of a virgin and came as a man and lived among us (see John 1:14).
 
John 1:14:
14 The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth.
 
This word revealed to us the glory of the invisible God. This word is a person and His name is Jesus Christ (see John 1:16-18).
 
John 1:16-18:
16 Out of his fullness we have all received grace in place of grace already given.

17 For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.

18 No one has ever seen God, but the one and only Son, who is himself God and is in closest relationship with the Father, has made him known. <=

Change And Confrontation
 
The change in Jesus' time began with the confrontation of the hearts of the people as it is still happening today. The power of the Holy Spirit is moving according to the command(ment) of God.
The Hebrew word for “commandment” is “peh” and means “mouth” which is linked to blowing and breathing. Jesus also said that the Holy Spirit is moving with the sound of His words to reveal the truth (see John 16:13-15).
 
John 16:13-15:
13 But when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all the truth. He will not speak on his own; he will speak only what he hears, and he will tell you what is yet to come.
14 He will glorify me because it is from me that he will receive what he will make known to you.
15 All that belongs to the Father is mine. That is why I said the Spirit will receive from me what he will make known to you.”
 
The Transformation And The Greater Glory
 
The transformation of God's house on earth is linked to the greater glory as the prophet Haggai prophesied (see Haggai 2:9).
 
Haggai 2:9:
9 ‘The glory of this present house will be greater than the glory of the former house,’ says the Lord Almighty. ‘And in this place I will grant peace,’ declares the Lord Almighty.”
 
This increasing glory is connected to shaking which must come to reveal that what is unshakable and to bring the blessing of God to surface (see Haggai 2:6-8 i.c.w. Hebrews 12:26-29).
 
Haggai 2:6-8:
6 “This is what the Lord Almighty says: ‘In a little while I will once more shake the heavens and the earth, the sea and the dry land.
7 I will shake all nations, and what is desired by all nations will come, and I will fill this house with glory,’ says the Lord Almighty.
8 ‘The silver is mine and the gold is mine,’ declares the Lord Almighty.
 
Hebrews 12:26-29:
26 At that time his voice shook the earth, but now he has promised, “Once more I will shake not only the earth but also the heavens.”
27 The words “once more” indicate the removing of what can be shaken—that is, created things—so that what cannot be shaken may remain.
28 Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us be thankful, and so worship God acceptably with reverence and awe, 29 for our “God is a consuming fire.”
 
The Wedding At Cana And The Time Of Job
 
There is a relation between the time of Job and the time of the wedding at Cana, which means that something good came to an end and has paved the way for something even more beautiful to come.
 
At the wedding at Cana it was the wine, which had run out and was replaced by Jesus who turned water into best sweet wine by serving (cooping and delivering).
 
In Job's time, it were his seven sons and three daughters, who understood how to celebrate (Job 1:1-2.4).
 
Job 1:1-2.4:
1 In the land of Uz there lived a man whose name was Job. This man was blameless and upright; he feared God and shunned evil.
2 He had seven sons and three daughters, …
4 His sons used to hold feasts in their homes on their birthdays, and they would invite their three sisters to eat and drink with them.
 
At this feast season of celebrating birthdays as mentioned his daughters had an important part in the celebration of the day which is equal to the threefold cord as it is written in Ecclesiastes 4:12.
 
Ecclesiastes 4:12:
12 Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves. A cord of three strands is not quickly broken.
 
Jesus said that there is increase of His presence if we gather by two or three (see Matthew 18:20).
 
Matthew 18:20:
“ … 20 For where two or three gather in my name, there am I with them.”
 
The seven sons of Job lived in a cycle of celebration that God had finished after the first feast cycle was completed (see Job 1:4.18-19).
 
Job 1:4.18-19:
4 His sons used to hold feasts in their homes on their birthdays, and they would invite their three sisters to eat and drink with them. …
18 While he was still speaking, yet another messenger came and said, “Your sons and daughters were feasting and drinking wine at the oldest brother’s house, 19 when suddenly a mighty wind swept in from the desert and struck the four corners of the house. It collapsed on them and they are dead, and I am the only one who has escaped to tell you!”
 
The Day Of Visitation
 
Based on this scripture, we can see that God finished the feast cycle of the week (seven days – seven sons) on the eighth day (in the house of the firstborn son of Job) through a mighty wind which represents the day of visitation. Then a new feast season heralded connected to a time of labor pains for Job.
 
God has revealed to Job His power and His voice through the storm of “divine questions” in this time of birth pain (letting go an old season and receiving a new season) (see Job 38:1).
 
Job 38:1:
1 Then the Lord spoke to Job out of the storm. He said: …
 
These questions were posed by God to show Job His greatness, order and that He was in control of everything.
 
The Glory Of The House Of The Last Adam
 
To summarize all of this, it means that God finished one season of His glory that was linked to the “old house” (first Adam), to pave the way for the greater glory of the new spiritual house (last Adam; see 1 Corinthians 15:44-45) which is in turn connected to the newborn seven sons and newborn three daughters of Job, who have now names that are mentioned. Job lost his seven sons and three daughters in the past but he got them back from God in the future.
 
Therefore, there is no coincidence that the book of Job does not mention the names of the newborn sons but only the three names of his newborn daughters (see Job 42:13-15).
 
Job 42:13-15:
13 And he also had seven sons and three daughters.
14 The first daughter he named Jemimah (means dove => spirit filled saints in the Bride of Christ) the second Keziah (means motherly cinnamon and is derived from a Hebrew root word that means to bow down => humility and expression of adoration) and the third Keren-Happuch (means horn of beauty – a horn for make-up => governmental beauty).
15 Nowhere in all the land were there found women as beautiful as Job’s daughters, and their father granted them an inheritance along with their brothers.
 
The greater glory in the new house directs to the season in which God allows us to enter into His fulfilled creative established plans for us and our lives. The purpose of this greater glory as a result of a challenging process of transformation is to help us enjoy His blessing in our field of authority as well as to administer by obedience like Adam was called by God (see Genesis 2:8.15).
 
Genesis 2:8.15:
8 Now the Lord God had planted a garden in the east, in Eden; and there he put the man he had formed. …
15 The Lord God took the man and put him in the Garden of Eden to work it and take care of it.
 
God is calling us to enter into the eighth day – the new season which means entering into His house of His only begotten son (Jesus – the last Adam) to receive the increase of His wind and fire for this time (see Acts 2:1-4).
 
Acts 2:1-4:
1 When the day of Pentecost came, they were all together in one place.
2 Suddenly a sound like the blowing of a violent wind came from heaven and filled the whole house where they were sitting.
3 They saw what seemed to be tongues of fire that separated and came to rest on each of them.
4 All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues (languages) as the Spirit enabled them.
 
So, we can be very confident that God has already provided what is needed in order to go through this progress of transformation and to go on with greater revelation of Himself by living by faith and not by sight (see 2 Corinthians 5:7).
 
2 Corinthians 5:7:
7 For we walk by faith, not by sight.
 
Amen and Amen.
 
In His Wisdom,
