The following word is based on a message from 2007. Since we feel that the content is of spiritual importance for this time, we would like to make it available again in a revised form.

 

This word is especially addressed to the men among God’s people and is intended to encourage them to walk in love, acceptance, and humility toward the women in the Body of Christ.

 

In connection with the above encouragement, the Holy Spirit emphasized the word from 1 Samuel 1:9-16 where Hannah went to the temple and shared her heartache with the LORD.

 

1 Samuel 1:9-16:
9 Once when they had finished eating and drinking in Shiloh, Hannah stood up. Now Eli the priest was sitting on his chair by the doorpost of the Lord’s house.
10 In her deep anguish Hannah prayed to the Lord, weeping bitterly.
11 And she made a vow, saying, ‘Lord Almighty, if you will only look on your servant’s misery and remember me, and not forget your servant but give her a son, then I will give him to the Lord for all the days of his life, and no razor will ever be used on his head.’
12 As she kept on praying to the Lord, Eli observed her mouth.
13 Hannah was praying in her heart, and her lips were moving but her voice was not heard. Eli thought she was drunk 14 and said to her, ‘How long are you going to stay drunk? Put away your wine.’
15 ‘Not so, my lord,’ Hannah replied, ‘I am a woman who is deeply troubled. I have not been drinking wine or beer; I was pouring out my soul to the Lord.
16 Do not take your servant for a wicked woman; I have been praying here out of my great anguish and grief.’

 

In connection with this, we received an email from an intercessor who revealed an important aspect of the present situation among the people of God. In this message, the person related an experience that illustrates the trauma of the ‘Hannahs’ among God’s people.

 

 

Late in the evening, the daughter of the intercessor saw a goldfish lying on the ground near her house, injured by the attack of a cat and wriggling on the dry ground. The goldfish itself was already in a very dry condition. Due to this fact, daughter and mother rescued this goldfish and put it in a filled bathtub overnight to take care of it.

 

The next morning, they found that the goldfish was still alive and gave it to their neighbour who owned a pond from which the cat caught the fish. The neighbour informed that the goldfish was a female that had a lot of spawn in it.

 

For the females to lay this spawn, the males bump their mouths against the abdominal wall of the female. To deposit the spawn, the female went to the shallow edge of the pond, so the cat grabbed the goldfish and finally carried it away.

 

 

Due to this fact, the neighbour’s wife stretched a protective net over the pond so that this would not happen again.

 

A day later, the intercessor visited the neighbour again to check on the fish and asked him regarding the procedure, whether it was normal for the males to push the females into the shallow shore water to spawn, which is one of the highest dangers for these fish.

 

The neighbour stated that this practice has only been going on in his pond since he put a new, beautiful male in the pond. This male goldfish has extra-large and beautiful shaped fins and looks better than any other fish in his pond.

 

The neighbour was expecting that the female will have offspring from this big, beautiful fish.

 

 

However, this fish chases the female to such an extent that the female is pushed all the way to the edge of the bank. With these pushing actions, it encourages the other males in the pond to do the same. Before the new male was in the pond, the spawning process was much safer.

 

We would now like to refer to this event with reference to the condition of some women in the church. There are some women among the people of God who have been pregnant for years with various promises for the church, carrying and forming this pregnancy under the intercessory groaning of the Spirit (cf. Romans 8:26).

 

Romans 8:26:
26 In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us through wordless groans.

 

It is the ‘Hannahs’ who continually come before the LORD and present their concern and prayer for the church. They are women who become pregnant with the fruit of God, like this female goldfish.

 

In the spirit this fruit already exists, but it must come into the visible and for this it needs the men who devote themselves to this process in humility.
This message is meant to erase conflict between man and woman in the Body of Christ, as it is meant to bring about union in holy togetherness (cf. John 13:35 i.c.w. 1 Corinthians 12:12; Galatians 3:26-28).

 

John 13:35:
35 By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.’

 

1 Corinthians 12:12:
12 Just as a body, though one, has many parts, but all its many parts form one body, so it is with Christ.

 

Galatians 3:26-28:
26 So in Christ Jesus you are all children of God through faith, 27 for all of you who were baptised into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ.
28 There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.

 

We as men need to give our attention to this issue.

 

Some women even saw themselves on the verge of death for the sake of the church, which was related to inner processes due to the non-respect, of the insights given to them by the Holy Spirit. They were simply overlooked, so that the spiritual fruit in the form of the spiritual impulses in the women found no attention, protection or appreciation.

 

At this point it should be noted that we as ministry of ‘CRAZYCHRISTIANS’, in relation to this matter, make sure that these women who have assigned themselves completely to the Lord with their life are honoured and receive their God-given recognition (cf. Romans 13:7).

 

Romans 13:7:
7 Give to everyone what you owe them: if you owe taxes, pay taxes; if revenue, then revenue; if respect, then respect; if honour, then honour.

 

Among other things, we see our mission in the fact that it comes to the spiritual fruit growth, so that the fruit for this time and the coming time can be born.

 

 

In May 2007 Wendy Alec was asked by God to share a message to believers in Christ.
It was about the next coming movement of God.

 

She was shown by God that this movement cannot come until the women who bring it forth are healed and restored.

 

These women were shown to her as trampled, destroyed roses who had been through so much abuse from the men in the Body of Christ who humiliated, dominated, and disrespected them. Their needs were not perceived, and they were neglected.
Their husbands are often spiritual leaders. Or they are women who have a certain call of God on their lives, in that they are to work with men.

 

But this was denied to them. They were despised when they passed on the words of God, and they were not taken seriously.

 

 

These women are like Hannah, who was despised but ultimately brought about revival in Israel through Samuel, her son!

 

‘Hannahs’ are women whom God has placed in a very difficult situation that causes them to pray and want to overcome. What these Hannahs do not know, however, is that they are ministering and interceding on a much broader level far beyond their own answers to prayer.

 

 

When the prayer bowls are full, then comes the answer.
Under this pain and distress, we cannot help but continue to pray and bring forth liquid prayers (Note: tears). This is a very organic process.

 

Their perseverance, faith and patience bring forth the fruit, just as Abraham’s and Sarah’s battle of faith had an impact far beyond their own situation. They brought forth Israel (cf. Isaiah 51:1-2)!

 

Isaiah 51:1-2:
1 ‘Listen to me, you who pursue righteousness and who seek the Lord: look to the rock from which you were cut and to the quarry from which you were hewn; 2 look to Abraham, your father, and to Sarah, who gave you birth. When I called him he was only one man, and I blessed him and made him many.

 

And Hannah brought forth Samuel, and thus the revival in Israel. So far beyond her own situation, God used her prayers!

 

There might be believers who shrink from such a statement alone and call this a false theology of suffering. But then why are there still martyrs today? And we hopefully all know that the church today is built on the blood of the martyrs of past centuries.

 

Without sacrifice there is no fruit (cf. John 12:24 i.c.w. 2 Corinthians 4:17)!

 

John 12:24:
24 Very truly I tell you, unless a grain of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it remains only a single seed. But if it dies, it produces many seeds.

 

2 Corinthians 4:17:
17 For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all.

 

It is the principle of the oil press: ‘The anointing comes from this crushing.”

 

The Hannahs of today are women devoted to God who lay down their lives daily before the Lord. Because of their lowly position and being ‘mistreated’, they experienced the same pain that God feels over His church as well, for a long time without seeing a solution. These women often experienced the true reality about the Body of Christ as Jesus sees it. For they have become a sacrifice within ‘the system’ (Note: religious structures).

 

It is necessary to be aware that God always sees things from the point of view of the wretched and broken.

 

Because these Hannahs spiritually ‘see’ what is really going on, they pray for things that others often do not even perceive. That is why they are recognized as extreme.
They are uncomfortable because they recognize the weaknesses and errors of ‘the system’. And thus, for some, they also become a danger.

 

 

The prayers and tears of these women are what give birth to the new movement, and they themselves are often the most despised because their family situation is so difficult. When the brothers and sisters have no more answers, they look for faults and become the accusers of their own brothers and sisters. These women are mocked, just as Hannah was mocked by Peninna.

 

In part, they are misjudged and accused by their own spiritual leaders, just as Hannah was falsely accused of alcoholism. These women perceive that the ‘church’ is not a place of help and protection for them. They do not experience that you bear another’s burden. Rather, they experience the selfish attitude, ‘Am I my brother’s keeper?’

 

We also sometimes use their sorrowful situation against them to silence them by saying to them meaningfully:

 

 

They experience the painful side of every false teaching such as the widespread misconception of the churches that success is the fruit by which ‘spirituality’ can be measured. People get falsely judged by their success.

 

That these Hannahs patiently endure in the fellowship of Jesus’ sufferings is not seen by many in today’s church generation as desirable or praiseworthy.

 

Sacrifices are despised. Only apparent outward ‘beauty’ counts, like the beautiful, large fins of the goldfish in the dream.

 

Now the time of birth has come, and a birth is contested to this day and is a moment between life and death. To abandon a woman in this time, or even to torture her, is really the very last thing in God’s eyes (Note: goldfish).

 

 

Wendy Alec mentioned it several times that this new movement cannot come until these women are healed, justified, and restored. She was not referring to women who have a ministry alone, but only to those who have a ministry in cooperation with men.

 

The enemy hates the woman because God uses her to bring forth life, spiritual awakenings, and revivals in a long and painful process, like pregnancy and childbirth.
The enemy tries to destroy these spiritual life-bearing women with all his might in the Body.

 

 

Wendy Alec went on to say that it is now necessary to break the satanic ordinances against these women. The enemy has taken advantage of every weakness, blindness, carelessness in others and in the Hannahs themselves to destroy them.

 

 

Then Wendy Alec saw Jesus coming to open the bonds of those trampled roses with a diamond key. Moreover, she saw Jesus set the men free by freeing them from the ‘scales’ on their eyes so that they could properly judge the situation (cf. Acts 9:8 i.c.w. Ephesians 1:18).

 

Acts 9:18:
18 Immediately, something like scales fell from Saul’s eyes, and he could see again. He got up and was baptised, …

 

Ephesians 1:18:
18 I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in his holy people, …

 

Then she urged the men to repent of having so despised and mistreated these women (Note: often even their own wives) in the kingdom of God. She said that if the men would repent, they would likewise be allowed to continue their ministry in the time to come.

 

Wendy Alec then prayed for the women, especially those who hated their husbands because of this. She also told the men not to be surprised if they destroyed the flower and the leaves, that for them personally only the thorns would remain.

 

 

This message with the goldfish showed to the intercessor that in this context the Lord was speaking to her as follows:

 

 

As the intercessor pondered the behaviour of the beautiful male fish pushing the female away near the shore, she received the word from Ezekiel 34:20-31.

 

Ezekiel 34:20-31:
20 ‘ “Therefore this is what the Sovereign Lord says to them: see, I myself will judge between the fat sheep and the lean sheep.
21 Because you shove with flank and shoulder, butting all the weak sheep with your horns until you have driven them away,
22 I will save my flock, and they will no longer be plundered. I will judge between one sheep and another.
23 I will place over them one shepherd, my servant David, and he will tend them; he will tend them and be their shepherd.
24 I the Lord will be their God, and my servant David will be prince among them. I the Lord have spoken.
25 ‘ “I will make a covenant of peace with them and rid the land of savage beasts so that they may live in the wilderness and sleep in the forests in safety.
26 I will make them and the places surrounding my hill a blessing. I will send down showers in season; there will be showers of blessing.
27 The trees will yield their fruit and the ground will yield its crops; the people will be secure in their land. They will know that I am the Lord, when I break the bars of their yoke and rescue them from the hands of those who enslaved them.
28 They will no longer be plundered by the nations, nor will wild animals devour them. They will live in safety, and no-one will make them afraid.
29 I will provide for them a land renowned for its crops, and they will no longer be victims of famine in the land or bear the scorn of the nations.
30 Then they will know that I, the Lord their God, am with them and that they, the Israelites, are my people, declares the Sovereign Lord.
31 You are my sheep, the sheep of my pasture, and I am your God, declares the Sovereign Lord.” ’

 

In this context, as the people of God, we highly recommend to you the message ‘The Reciprocal Recognition of Men and Women in the Body of Jesus’ to properly position yourselves in this new biblical year to honour our Head, Jesus Christ.

 

Amen and Amen.

In His Wisdom,
