SENSE
A dream I used to have quite a number of years ago came to my mind. I felt like I was really being called to the Lord and in those days, I was going my own way. I didn't understand it until tonight. I would go into the water - I understand the water as being the Holy Spirit – I would go in totally immersed in the water. It wasn't until I was able to breathe the water that I was able to get life. I understand it now that in praise, we go immersed into the water, immersed into the Spirit, but if we want to come to worship, we have to breathe the Holy Spirit.
PROPHECY
Come now, my beloved, come into My divine Presence! It delights Me to share My glory with you. I delight in sharing My Heart with you, so let your gaze, the gaze of your hearts be opened wide so that I may enter in; that I may fellowship with you; that I may sup with you. I invite you to the banquet of My love. I spread out before you every delight imaginable, that you may feast on Who I am. Come into My divine Presence, My beloved, I open My heart to you and I say, “Come, enter in; I am here, I am in your hearts. I desire that I would enter into the heart of every man and woman here. I desire that I would enter in; that I may have a place in you. For you are Mine. There is no taking back My love; I pour it out this night freely from My heart to yours. Be filled with My love; soak it in; breathe it in. It is My delight to breathe out My Spirit that you may be filled from the inner part of your heart that needs to be filled; from the empty spaces in you, the part of you that desperately cries out.” I would say to you, “ Breathe in the love of God, for I am here. I am with you; I will never leave you. I will never forsake you; I will never turn My back on you. Forever, minute by minute, day by day, I have My eye on you. Know that My favor rests with you; that My love, poured out from Calvary and given to you this day in the Resurrection calls you to resurrection. I call you to be a resurrected people. I call you to be a spirit-filled, set-ablaze, on-fire with My love, people. Come and rest; come and soak in My Presence.”
SCRIPTURE/ PRAYER
Jeremiah 31:1-3 At that time, declares the Lord, I will be the God of all the families of Israel and they shall be My people. Thus says the Lord, “the people who survived the sword have found favor in the desert. Israel , when it went to find its rest, the Lord appeared to him from afar, saying, “I loved you with an everlasting love, therefore, I have drawn you with loving kindness.” So Lord, we ask that You would draw us; we can't do anything on our own first. Lord, we say we're willing to be willing. Lord, we are setting You before our hearts and minds. Lord, we love You because You first loved us and we run after You because You draw us. So Lord, here we are. Lord, here we are. Lord, we respond to what You are saying to us and we breathe You in.
SCRIPTURE
John 3:28-30: You yourselves can testify that I said that I am not the Christ; I am the one who has been sent to go in front of Him. It is the bridegroom who has the bride; yet the bridegroom's friend who stands there and listens to him is filled with joy at the bridegroom's voice. This is the joy I feel and it is complete. He must grow greater; I must grow less.
SCRIPTURE
Isaiah 45:21-24 Turn to Me and be saved, all the ends of the earth, for I am God and there is no other. By Myself, I have sworn; from My mouth has gone forth in righteousness a word that shall not return. Turn to Me. To Me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear. Only in the Lord, it shall be said of Me, are righteousness and strength.
PRAYER
Lord, give us eyes to see You high and lifted up. Lord, give us eyes to see You in Your glory, Your holiness, Your beauty, Your majesty; the lion, the lamb. Lord, the mountains do bow down; the trees clap their hands; the oceans roar; all creation worships You; everyone is singing the same song; the angels sing their praises. Lord, we want to hear what is being sung in Heaven. We want the echo of that Heart to be the echo of our heart.
PROPHECY
Enter in, place your head on My chest and hear My heart. Do not be afraid.
PROPHECY
Pour out your hearts to Me, my beloved! Pour out your hearts to Me, My people! For you have found favor in Me. You have found favor in Me. Pour out your hearts to Me, My beloved, pour out your hearts to Me, My chosen ones; for you have found favor in the Most High. You have found favor with Me and I delight in You. I delight in your presence. For I give you all that I have; what I have is great and what I have is yours. I freely give you My heart; I freely give you My joy. I freely give you My peace, every blessing from Me I bestow upon you this night. Come and be blessed by Me, for I love you with an everlasting love. I fill you with an everlasting joy. I give you My heart, I give you My peace.
IMAGE
Jesus rose, as it were, huge, from the altar and stretched out His arms, with His nail scarred hands. It was Jesus, the Sacred Heart, reaching out His arms over all of us, to bless us.
IMAGE
When the Lord was speaking to us about His most Sacred Heart, I got an image of His Sacred Heart, with the crown of thorns, over us, over the whole community. As He spoke of His heart, His Precious Blood spurted out from all of the wounds in His heart, like a fireworks, but it was truly His blood. His blood came down and washed us and cleansed us, so that we may be truly holy.
PRAYER
Into Your holy hands, into Your hands of mercy, we place ourselves and those in need. We pray now that Your Holy Spirit touch the hearts of those here in this assembly tonight, that You have called to this place for special prayer. They may or may not have come in knowing that, but let Your anointing come upon them now, Lord.
SCRIPTURE/ PROPHECY
In the prophet Hosea, God speaks of His great love. Tonight He says to us, “Have you ever heard Me speak your name? Have you ever heard Me tell you how much I love you? Listen, listen, for tonight I have spoken your name. These are the words I have said to you, ‘It was I Who taught you to walk. I took you up in My arms and I healed you. I led you with cords of human kindness and with bands of love. I am to you like those who lift infants to their cheeks. I bent down to you and I fed you.' Tonight I have spoken your name and these are the words I have said to you.”
