Power Tongues notes 12/1/2013

(Format: We pray in tongues for about 20 or 30 minutes, and then share what we sense the Lord is telling us. Probably never perfect, but as we press on with the Lord, we grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. We are always looking for others around the world to join us. You can join us individually or as a group. To become a part of the Power Tongues team, contact me at linda@linda-schubert.com. Next session January 5, 2014.)

Home Team:

Theresa – Peace I give you, not as the world gives do I give you.

Rod – The voice crying out in the desert, make straight the path.

George – Picture of serpentine path and at end are arms of Jesus. As people going on path wander, they are brought back on the path. As they grow in their journey with the Lord, the deviations become smaller and smaller. We are to evangelize with love.

Linda S – When we started, felt wash of anger and fear and unresolved issues. People walking in defeat. Then felt the Lord saying to gather together, face the issues with our eyes on him, walk in forgiveness, settle the issues. Saw a rock that was being smashed into pieces and oil poured out on rock fragments.

Chuck – When we first started, saw image of sword and stone, like in the movie. The Lord is making things possible that weren’t possible. We can pull the sword out of the stone. We must ask with faith. He wants to bring down the gold. We need to ask in faith. Economic change in Africa came out of prayer. God wants us to use the authority that we have, that we would understand our daughter and sonship.

Bob – God is pouring out his blessings on us so we can receive his gifts and pass them on to others. Especially during this time he is pouring out gift of his Son and wants us to pass it on.

Barbara – Centering in on gratitude. Felt the Lord weeping for lack of gratitude for all the blessings he has poured out on his people. Went through list of gratitude and thanksgiving for all the blessings of the people here. Prayed that people would understand the blessings.

Rod – Sense of urgency. The Lord wants us to do our very best right now. Scripture of two women grinding, one was taken, one was left. We don’t want to be left. Urgency to being prepared, to evangelize, using the tools he’s given us.

Theresa – As the labor pains come on suddenly, so the end will come. Watch to the left and the right. Things are not as they seem.

Kathy – Fragmented. Christmas traditional decorations were broken and wrapped in clear plastic wrap, like the world had pushed them aside and left them in disarray. Lord was asking us to be there and bring world back to him.

Adrienne – Saw painting of Eve in the garden. Just as sin came through her disobedience, a lot of the sin today is coming through women and impurity; freedom used in the wrong ways. This is due to brokenness. Lord wanted prayer for restoration of real femininity, what he created us to be as real women. Saw cords with knots of sin in them. The cords were like a bondage holding them together in sin. When prayed the precious blood of Jesus over the knots to be undone, the Blessed Mother opened her mantle as the representative of true femininity. Then saw leopard, then saw huge beautiful lion, then saw Blessed Mother. Through her yes salvation came. During this time the Lord will do much through the true femininity. Women are made to be guardians of life. Saw lion lick the chords and changed from dark to light and then the leopard left.

Linda Mc – Waters were rising. God is beginning to do a stirring in this region. He is stirring his Spirit, pouring out his Spirit. Praying for people who are in his body but fearful of his gifts. The enemy separates people by fear of the gifts. Prayed that they would walk in the gifts.

Linda M – Prayed for our group. Sensed that Lord is pushing us to a new level, accelerate it. Then he asked, ‘Who loves you unconditionally?’

Mike – Heard assurances. The Lord is provider, and he will take us by the hand. He reminds us that ‘if they are not against us, they are with us. We’re able to talk about Jesus as we are witnessing about relationship with him.

Celine – Many prayer cells around the world. God has little cells all over. After that awareness I saw a jumble of colors and textures, like grey stone in churches in England, then like fabric like a housecoat, then grey, beige, then lot of children’s pastel colors (pink, green, etc) – they kept playing again and again. Message was ‘take care of my children’.

Shelly – Saw a bridge with enemies on each side. It was a bridge of peace. People began crossing over, they brought peace, they experienced the lives of the other. Peace began as they recognized the life of the others was not so different as their own. Bridge became covered in flowers, peace came where there had been war before.

Maria J - North Carolina - I received an image of being in a desert and seeing the patriarchs.  I felt the Lord was reminding me of how they lived their lives while traveling through the desert. Abraham was made a promise that his descendents would be as numerous as the stars yet he and Sarah were barren. The Israelites felt abandoned during their 40 years of exile and wished to be back in Egypt.  They were in a very dry place physically and spiritually. He was saying to me that while we are in the desert we are also in a very dry place.  This is how the soul feels when it is in a dry place spiritually because it does not feel that God is close or is hearing its cry. Yet he reminded me of how he kept his promise to Abraham and how he brought the Israelites into the promised land. When we come out of the desert we are refreshed by greener pastures and water to quench our thirst.  The soul once again feels the presence of our Lord. He is faithful to his promises for our lives.

Liz - Pennsylvania - I saw a large eagle flying above the earth. It came so close that one could feel the softness of its wings. I believe it represented the Lord searching for faithful ones. As it flew around the world, I could see its shadow on the earth. It brought to mind "under the shadow of his wings."I heard: “Listen, my children, to the words of my heart. The world hurries about worldly tasks but few stop to know me. I am the God who loves you not from afar but in your being. Empty your life of the unnecessary noise, and worldly cares.  Do not submit yourself to what is not pure. Abide with me.” Sirach 36: Come to our aid, O God of the universe, and put all the nations in dread of you! Raise up your hand against the heathen, that they may realize your power. As you have used us to show them your holiness, so now use them to show us your glory. Thus they will know, as we know, that there is no God but you.

Pat - Staten Island NY - My way is not so easy as you see. I have shown you the way to go but you are so busy with other things.  Feel my presence, I am right here. Do not be distracted by the things of the world.  Feel free to come to me just where you are. I will be there to see you through every path.  The way needs your trust in me completely.  So many times I have uttered your name and you have turned away.  Stay close and do not move from me without my word guiding you. Do not fall asleep without praying so that even as you sleep I can show you how to bring forth my plan for the children of God.  Promises I made are for you and you will see the signs. Only hear me and wait patiently.  I long for your closeness.  Cling to me and fear nothing.  Love and worship me alone as we come to the end of the journey. Be thou sober and alert. 2 Samuel 23, 2-7: The Spirit of the Lord spoke by me and His word was on my tongue. The God of Israel said the Rock of Israel spoke to me.  He who rules over men must be just.  Ruling in the fear of God. And he shall be like the light of the morning when the sun rises.  A morning without clouds like the tender grass springing out of the earth, by clear shining after rain.  Although my house is not so with God, Yet he has made with me an everlasting covenant. Ordered in all things and secure.  For this is all my salvation and my desire;Will he not make it increase?  But the sons of rebellion shall all be thorns thrust away, because they cannot be taken with hands.  But the man who touches them must be armed with iron and the shaft of a spear, and they shall be utterly burned with fire in their place. 

Jane – Raleigh North Carolina – A reading from the Douay-Rheims Proverbs 29:11 - "A fool uttereth all his mind: a wise man deferreth, and keepeth it till afterwards." from the USCCB (internet): "Fools give vent to all their anger; but the wise, biding their time, control it." I felt impressed upon that this scripture was meant for someone participating in our praying.

Mary M – Anthem AZ - Go forth boldly. I will fit you for the battle. Be calm and steadfast. Nothing will harm you. You have the equipment and protection needed.  Go forth and tell the good news. Salvation is here. Be ready.  Be still and know I am God. Revelation 1:9 and Psalm 51

From the Fresno CA team: We experienced very loving prayer time together. Just when one believes that they have experienced the incredible love of God, he tops it with Sunday evening’s prayer. What an extraordinary God we serve. God Bless you all as we celebrate the birth of our Lord Jesus Christ, this holy season.

Ciria - Fresno – A great pearl before my eyes was shining and spinning like an iridescent luster. It was smoothed from the churning and turning of it. This pearl is a very fine, extremely rare, admirable and priceless. This is a natural pearl that came from a creature. It creates a pearl sac to fend off irritations, parasites and damage done to it. Our earthly pilgrimage is like this creature, filled with trial and offenses. Like the creatures pearl sac, we are also moaning and groaning, and have a pearl sac to fend off offenses, irritation and trauma that happens to us. "But the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered" (Rom. 8:26). It is particularly the help which the blessed Comforter gives the Christian in his prayer life, in the counteracting of his "infirmities," which is now to engage our attention. In Zechariah 12:10 He is emphatically styled "The Spirit of grace and of supplications," for He is the Author of every spiritual desire, every holy aspiration, every outgoing of the heart after God. Prayer has rightly been termed "the breathing of the newborn soul," yet we must carefully bear in mind that its respiration is wholly determined by the stirrings of the Holy Spirit within us. As the Person, work and intercession of Christ, are the foundation of all our confidence in approaching the Father. Every spiritual exercise in prayer is the fruit of the Spirit's operations and intercession.


Bryanna - Fresno - I saw the prophets of Baal trying all they could to get Baal to answer like in 1Kings 18.Then I saw a man trying all he could to get God to answer. I heard the Lord say "I have loved you first. Do not be like a worshiper of Baal (Mathew 6:5-15).Be in my presence the way I am in yours. I already know your forms of expression because I am in your presence. Be in my presence and you will know my forms of expression. I thought of how I can understand my one year old son even though his language has not fully developed. Then the Lord asked "can you see it?" I said "yes".

David – Fresno – (John 10:7-13) When Jesus called himself the Door of the sheep he said that all others are thieves and liars that take upon the name of the Door. There are no men that can stand in his place and do what Christ did for his sheep. Anyone that claims otherwise is a hireling, and will leave the sheep when the wolf comes. All the prophets showed the sheep that Christ is the Door, our true pastor and the true church. Opposite of him are thieves that do not feed the flock and forsake them because their only interest is personal profit and gain. Beware oh sheep that the shepherd you are following is not a hireling.

Twyla – Fresno - I saw a dandelion which was sitting in a desolate field. The ground was covered with snow. I was sitting in the middle of the dandelion. I could see the dark stems reaching up to the white fluffy seeds the wind began to blow and the seeds were caught and began to fall onto the cold snowy ground. I wondered how this seed would survive or grow in a ground that was dead

Maya - Fresno, CA - I was under a thick cement arch. The cool wind blew softly. I zoomed out from my previous view and I figured out that I was standing on the ocean from the last PTI the same vast, salty, faded blue ocean. The arch was a bridge. Further away, there was river of gold light emptying out into the ocean. Giant dark green trees surrounded the river of light. I Peter 1:2 came to mind. Later I looked it up and it said: “Elect accordingly to the foreknowledge of God the Father, though sanctification of the Spirit: Unto obedience and sparkling of the blood of Jesus Christ: Grave unto you, and peace, be multiplied.” (I Peter 1:2, King James Bible). I saw a beautiful water fountain streaming with bright blue water, I wanted to drink but I did nothing, trees surrounded the fountain, they were all orange. Then I thought that “there is no such thing as death.” Life is like tree leaves you are born in the spring, summer is child hood, autumn is adult hood, winter is when you leave the flesh, next year’s spring is the rebirth with our Father. God made a beautiful world for us were we may witness life, rebirth, and we gain knowledge from his creations. Looking at Jesus’ parables he used nature and people and other creations of God to teach valuable lessons in life, and spiritual life. We scrape these lessons from other people, nature and God himself and his word.

Pattie - Raleigh, North Carolina - My tongues turned into two songs after a while, that I sung over and over and over again: Lord, you are more precious than silver.  Lord, you are more costly than gold.  Lord, you are more beautiful than diamonds, and nothing I desire compares to you. Who can weigh the value of knowing you?  Who can judge the worth of who you are?  Who can count the blessings of loving you? Who can say just how great you are? Lord, prepare me to be a sanctuary   Pure and holy, tried and true. With thanksgiving, I'll be a living sanctuary for you!

Closing prayer: Lord, you are more precious than silver, more costly than gold. We return these humble offerings to you. That which was purely from you, let it take root and produce much fruit. Let all else be washed away in your refining love. Thank you, Lord Jesus, for the grace of this time. Amen.

Next session is January 5, 2014.

Power Tongues notes 11/3/2013

PTI Home Group

Linda S – Saw people all huddled up, curled up, saw them with clenched fist with anger. Then saw a whole variety of people in a health club with personal trainers. The trainers seemed to be angels whose expertise was in releasing anger.

Bob M – Heard the word ‘focus’, saying that in the midst of all problems and chaos and all stuff going on, keep focused on Him. He is the way, truth and life.

Barbara – Praying for families, reconciliation prayers for her own family first, then all our families, extended families, then ancestors, all prayer for families. The Lord said, “I’m doing a new thing with reconciliation.” The angels that Linda saw seem connected with that focus.

Rod – Saw the world, then a little beam that goes around and around, touching the whole world. Then looked around the room at everyone and thought how we were each praying for different parts of the world. The word ‘testimony’ came to mind. The Holy Spirit is bringing us into a new level, new release of what he’s given us. We are to go out and testify. Global intercession.

Linda M. – God is smoothing out the trauma each of us has experienced in our lives so it no longer cripples or hurts us.

Mike – Thinking of intercession around the world at same time in union with this group. There is strength in our coming together in prayer; we’re not alone. These groups are all praying at the same time. The whole mantle of Jesus is laying over us. We are family; we spread the corner of each of our mantles over the one next to us. Someone is praying for us around the world 24/7. The united groups all being aware of each other, is important.

Adrienne – First saw a line of monks and priests, very long. Then saw another line that formed a cross, they were all priests and religious. Then saw on one side the sickle and hammer and on other a crescent moon and star. The words came, “The enemies of my church are rising up but through the prayers, sacrifice and suffering I will do much with and through my remnant.” Saw small flames everywhere. There are groups everywhere on fire with Holy Spirit, scattered everywhere, but united in the fire of the Holy Spirit with His purpose in prayer. Kept praying for faith, trust, perseverance, fidelity for priests and religious. Then prayed the book of revelation, the part where the martyrs who persevere to the end will wear the white robes. The cross went from Alaska down into South America and turned into a cross of light.

Mary Ellen – General subject was the idea of letting go of judgment and resentment. It was tied to the need of the world for the true Father, God. Ultimately the judging and resenting is really against Father God. Sensed need for Father God to be acknowledged as a good Father.

Celine – Mainly how God shows us how he loves us. How he protects us from the enemy.

Betty – Praying for long time with no clear message. Then asked, “God what is on your heart to pray for?” Immediately received thought to pray for children, abused children especially. Abused in any way, hearing what they shouldn’t hear, seeing what they shouldn’t see. Minds are being filled with evil. Those who are aborted and never come into the life that God had planned for them. Then he said, “Every one of you was formed to be born in my time. So many are not born, my gifts to the world are not able to be given due to marriages that do not welcome children, birth control, etc.” Asked for reparations, sin offering. Sensed so much reparation is to be done for children that have been hurt.

Shelly – God was flowing mercy from heaven, wonderful, peaceful mercy. Saw light flowing from heaven like a waterfall, pure mercy flowing down to earth, to everyone’s hearts.

We were blessed during prayer and each of us received something from the Lord. May you be blessed and built up as the Body of Christ and a great blessing to others along our journey together.

Ciria – Fresno CA - I looked to the mountainous peaks and saw the glowing of a great fire and the forest was burned where only the stumps of the trees remained. They smoldered and the columns of smoke rose up from the burned fingers (trees). They bowed and leaned forward and worshiped Almighty God because new life was within the burned and charred stubs. (Metaphoric Meanings: The fire and smoke is God’s presence in his temple, the trees are God's people) Isaiah 55:12 “For ye shall go out with joy, and be led forth with peace: the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands.” (Exodus 40:34-38 RSV) "Then the cloud covered the tent of meeting, and the glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle. And Moses was not able to enter the tent of meeting, because the cloud abode upon it, and the glory of The Lord filled the tabernacle. Throughout all their journeys, whenever the cloud was taken up from over the tabernacle, the people of Israel would go onward; but if the cloud was not taken up, then they did not go onward till the day that it was taken up. For throughout all their journeys the cloud of the Lord was upon the tabernacle by day, and fire was in it by night, in the sight of all the house of Israel." The kingdom of God is a mountain which fills the whole earth, in Daniel's prophecies: Daniel 2:35 Then was the iron, the clay, the brass, the silver, and the gold, broken to pieces together, and became like the chaff of the summer threshing floors; and the wind carried them away, that no place was found for them: and the stone that smote the image became a great mountain, and filled the whole earth.

Reading Isaiah 42:13-16 (NIV)The LORD will march out like a mighty man, like a warrior he will stir up his zeal; with a shout he will raise the battle cry and will triumph over his enemies.
For a long time I have kept silent, I have been quiet and held myself back. But now, like a woman in childbirth, I cry out, I gasp and pant. I will lay waste the mountains and hills and dry up all their vegetation; I will turn rivers into islands and dry up the pools.I will lead the blind by ways they have not known, along unfamiliar paths I will guide them; I will turn the darkness into light before them and make the rough places smooth. These are the things I will do; I will not forsake them. Still God places today, just like the Old Testament, judges who are sometimes evil. But still accountable to Him for what they do. 2 Chronicles 19:5-11, and then Acts 2:14-21.

Bryanna – Fresno CA - Read Psalm 105.

Maya – Fresno CA - I prayed for courage and strength that is required in order to only forget but to forgive as well. Once again, I kept thinking of the vast things like the ocean, a large sky scraper, and the same mountain. I saw many compartments like a filing cabinet. I’m not sure what that meant or what it was. Next, I was asking God to use my soul and energy to heal, to heal the mind, soul, and body. I finally understood what it meant to fully let go. I discovered how difficult it is to let go of the possession that we hold onto for so long and bury deep into my mind. I discovered I need to open my mind in order to let God do his works, through me. I compare it to jumping off a cliff into a vast body of water. You need to trust that you will be taken care of, that assurance that you will be okay, you let go completely and fall. I need to practice letting feelings and possessions go. The barricades that keep me from expressing forgiving and trusting others mean I must take that leap. This is still related so forgiveness is the wisest choice. They are a part of you.

Twyla - Fresno CA - I saw a man standing within a big ball of fire. The fire represents the Holy Spirit that surrounds the believer even while we have protection of the fire we still have trials and pain because we have not completely surrendered to the Lord. I saw the man within the fire in turmoil and on his knees. Then the hand of the Lord reaches in and starts to remove black masses like a skilled surgeon at first the man within the fire resists but finally surrenders and allows the Lord to remove the darkness each mass that is removed the man becomes upright and the fire becomes stronger and brighter until the man and the fire become one . It's a radiant power transforming energy of the Holy Spirit. Let us be transformed to the real fullness of the Holy Spirit and become the believers we were meant to be, to allow the comforter to settle in our spirit and bring the peace in our lives. Scriptures to read 1 Corinthians 12:13 and Ephesians 11:3.

Melina - Fresno CA - Forgiveness is such a hard thing to learn, but it keeps the love that we truly have for the other person going. This also keeps our minds thinking rationally. Forgiving the person who has hurt you or enraged you comes with a great reward. I read 1John 2:3-9… that if we claim that we are walking in the light and with Lord and hate the people around us, we are really still in the darkness. The Lord has forgiven and he continues to keep forgiving. So we must forgive as God forgives us. (which is said the Colossians 3:12-14). As said in these 3 verses love is what keeps us together. Somehow love can be expressed in our physical and spiritual being just as much as anger can. I believe that the only difference is that anger takes more energy than love does. Anger also causes pain to others and when it spreads to everyone it feels like it will never end and it is hard to forgive even more because you want to do harm to the person who hurt you. The physical/carnal man will never want to stop getting revenge because you thank things should be more fair. We can't let our human motivations get in the way of learning how to be more like Christ.

David – Fresno CA – Read John 9:22-41.

Nora - San Diego – As I was praying I received a revelation of a tiny light inside of a small room, maybe two to four people inside the room. As I continue praying and asked for discernment, more and more of same tiny lights were added to the same picture; that happened to be families praying inside their rooms. From the beginning I felt the tiny light was a little faith, and as I continue praying and asking the Holy Spirit the meaning of this revelation, I felt moved to pray for a revival in our faith. As I was praying for revival, a line of bright fire was at the top of the mountains surrounding our country. Then I understood that we all need to pray for a new revival to be pour out in our families, churches, communities, cities, states and our country as well around the world. We as an intercessors can pray for the fire of the Holy Spirit to be with every evangelist, teacher, prophet, apostle and psalmist, that The Lord will pour his Spirit any where they go to proclaim the Good News of Jesus as their Hope and Savior, that true repentance and conviction will enter into their hearts; Then his glory will be manifested with signs, miracles and wonders all around the world. (see Matthew 5:16.g In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and Glorify your Father in heaven.

Pat - Staten Island NY - This is what came to me as I prayed: The days are here when my Word will bear fruit. Hold on to what I have given you. I have told you many things, but as I prompt you, you will know what to do. Do not fear, be strong. I know you and will be with you to be sure you will not fall. Hold fast, speak my Word. Let what happens keep you close to me. You will know me and follow. The way will be so clear. Steps will be clearly marked. Bring all I have told you with you. Everyone will come. So when the door opens you will see Me inside and know without doubt where to go. Keep alert and watch and pray. Matt: 25:31. When the Son of Man comes in His glory and all the holy angels with Him then He will sit on the throne of His glory. All the nations will be gathered before Him, and He will separate them one
from another, as a shepherd divides His sheep from His goats. Rev 3:20, “Behold I stand at the door and knock, if anyone hears my voice and opens the door. I will come in to him and dine with him and he with Me.”

Exodus 33:12 - 14: “Then Moses said to the Lord, ‘See You say to me 'Bring up this people',
but You have not let me know whom You will send with me. Yet You have said, ' I know you by name, and you have also found grace in My sight. ' Now therefore, I pray if I have found grace in Your sight, show me Your way, that I may know You and that I may find grace in Your sight. And consider that this nation is Your people". And He said, "My Presence will go with you and I will give you rest."

Pattie - Raleigh NC - Focus was on the gift of the Holy Eucharist, the most amazing and immeasurable Gift of all! Thank You for healings and the deliverance of those in bondage LORD! Amen.

Martina – West Virginia - I saw hands lifted up towards heaven, power tongues participants lifting up their hands in prayer. I saw a globe covered with blood. He shed his blood on the earth. He said, ‘Precious ones, you are mine, delight in Me. I have so much to offer, if you will but seek Me alone. Many blessings in store for you, the remnant few. I rely on you to bring souls to me, pray much for their salvation, they pay no heed to it .Precious ones, I love you, enter into My joy and peace, much blessings ahead for you My faithful ones.

Tina – The Lord says,“I am the King of glory, the Father of all nations. I have gathered you, My people, from all parts of the world to pray in intercession for the lost, the weary, the broken in spirit. Hence, they will come to know Me, Yahwah, through you. Each of you are My chosen remnant to serve Me and serve Me well. It is such a time as this that the world and thereabouts are perishing because of the wiles of the evil one. Broken are those who do not know Me. Bridge the gap, making way for new beginnings. I entrust in each of you My love. Show My love to one another and those with whom you come in contact. I impart My mercy and blessings upon each of you. Graces are being received this very day for the work you do in My name. Serve Me well as there are great rewards in heaven. All praise and glory to the Father who art in heaven for thine is the kingdom, the power and the glory now and forever.”

Mallory – Minnesota - Tonight, I just had a great feeling of peace as I prayed. I entered into a beach scene with very peaceful waters. There was a reflection of the moon on the water. I saw the Christ crucified on the beach. He was facing the peaceful waters, but He was very much in pain. I sang in tongues in the beginning. About twelve minutes into my prayer I felt that I should be silent. I was for about 5-6 minutes. There was just a great feeling of peace. I began my prayer again. I was back at the bay on the beach. There was peace. I also went to a church. It looked like the Catholic church I attend. I saw a priest kneeling there. Then, I was back on the beach. I have no idea of what any of this means or if it has any significance to tonight's power
tongues. I was puzzled by the time of silence.

Liz – Pennsylvania - I saw Jesus looking over Jerusalem. He said, l "My child, what have I done to you; in what way have I offended you that you have turned your back on me? The gates are still open for you to freely enter. My heart is always opened for you. Seek me first and you shall be happy. Jerusalem, Jerusalem, I weep for you because you have disregarded all that I have taught you. Repent and seek me that life eternal may be yours. Listen for my voice. Mine know me. Put aside your differences for my sake. Allow yourself to manifest my love in the world for without the active involvement of your will, love cannot enter the world." Scripture: Acts 2:28 “You have made known to me the path of life; you will fill me with joy in your presence.”

Closing prayer: Lord we lift these words to you. That which is from your heart, let it take root and produce much fruit. That which was simply from us, let it be washed away in your love. Teach us to listen. Thank you Lord. Amen.

Next session December 1. Please pray about participation.

Linda S – First when we started praying, I heard, “Nurture what I’ve given you. Each thing I’ve given you has a purpose, nurture it. “ Then I saw a lot of people turning corners, heard the word “decision” and then sense of great gatherings going on, breaking down of walls and great gathering.

Theresa – Received the word “decision” at very end, crystal clear sight of what needs to be decided.  At beginning saw clear water rushing toward us, thick rope coming down in middle of it. Not sure of meaning of rope. Saw dog with red eyes coming toward us, prayed to stop it.

Barbara – Saw lights, some bright, some weak, saw them all around world. Then prayers were lifted up with incense, like a huge ball toward heaven, and I heard the Lord say “It is well.” It was all the prayers going up. All around the White House, there were little white pots of prayer.

JP – Word and vision – Saw lot of homes near a cliff, landslide, many lost in landslide, saw lights on in homes on the cliff. Opened Bible to Acts 2, coming of Holy Spirit – commentary page says foundation of Holy Spirit, third person of Trinity, longs to bring forth fruit in every believer. Holy Spirit alone turns word of God into sword, makes effective prayer possible. Eph 5:8 – be filled with Holy Spirit.

Linda M – The Lord says, “Beloved I hunger for your thanks for my unending love and mercy and joy in your life.  I am with you always.  Do not forget.  I await your love.  I search for your love, affection and words.  I watch you always with a smile and joy.   I watch you always, please know I am with you and acknowledge your love for me.”

Betty – Saw spiral plow, shining silver, dry land, the land was so hard.  The Lord said “I want you to plow.” “How do I plow, when the ground is so dry?” He responded, “Through prayer, especially the rosary, all prayer.” The Holy Spirit will move the plow. Saw plows end-to-end as far as could see. The Holy Spirit was gathering prayers – saw priests, lay people, Bibles in everyone’s hands. Prayers were going up in streams of light. Saw blood, saw the need for ground tilled for hardened hearts, so seeds can be planted there. Sacrifices little and big, being gathered up into heaven. Acts of mercy and charity – any sacrifice, big or little, going up united with Jesus’ suffering and mercy, going up in little sparkling crosses to Holy Spirit, so can till the soil.

Chuck – Moses was lifting up a staff, saw serpent on it. People were looking at it in worship and evil was coming out of the people. They were looking to God  and were delivered. Then saw Jesse and oil being poured on top of him.   Then saw lit candles – a lot of them. Heard “24x7” – like they are lit 24x7 . Then saw incense coming up to heaven. Then saw Jesus. Scripture from John – “Peace I leave with you,”  and he breathed Holy spirit.  God is going to breathe on us the Holy Spirit in a new and powerful way. God is going to give us an instrument to break evil like he did Moses; give us prayer, break loose prayer. Second image - Saw Paul on boat with rocking seas and speaking peace to the natural storm. God was saying that he is going to give us authority in midst of chaos, and authority to speak peace. God wants peace. Saw child bowed in worship and heard the words, “open hearts.” Saw scales coming off and new baby skin appearing. Saw them coming off eyes and body so people can see right.  Saw rod being broken off. Saw Jeremiah weeping and “tears have been heard.”  .Saw Columbus coming to United States, putting his hands and gathering up soil and the soil was good and saw healthy plants in the soil.  God wants to redeem the world, even the western United States like we haven’t seen before. Saw earthquake, saw earth opening up and people were safe. There was safety. If you are in the Lord, you don’t need to be afraid.

Linda Mc – Received the word “earthquake,” then saw myself going down street where our church is, remembering how many times we have driven up and down the street praying. God said there is sowing to faithfulness. God was reaching for a giant pearl, pearl of great value. – then saw my son’s girlfriend who is Filipino. Then prayed for the Philippines. Then prayed for a dinner we are going to, and seeing people being ministered to and praying with them

Bob – Lord was asking for intercessory prayer for Catholic bishops.

Tru – Saw Jesus and his friends, lot of friendship and lot of love.

Susan – Saw bright light, beautiful light. Saw dark clouds gathered around the light, couldn’t see bright light anymore. Then as I prayed more, I could see light again, then colors changed into beautiful rainbow, then saw gold dust, beautiful color. Enjoying vision – message is when we focus on our relationship with the Lord, there is dark cloud that comes, busy-ness, cares, etc, but when we keep our focus, he can bring so much more  when we seek him – more when we least expect it. Gold dust.

Shelly – saw people dragging sleds full of “stuff.” They were snow sleds but the ground had no snow, so sleds were extremely difficult to pull. It was all the burdens and cares of this world, all the worldly goods that we chase after and can’t let go of.  Prayed for freedom.  Saw the ropes trying to be cut off, but the rope turned to steel cable because people weren’t ready to let go.  They kept struggling to pull all their things with them.  Then continued in prayer and cables were cut for some, as they were willing, and they found true freedom in Christ.  Continued to pray for freedom, for willingness of his people to cut off cares, burdens, encumbrances, so we are all free to serve him where and when he calls.

Celine – Two things. Began by praising God, then listened – then listened as he spoke about the beatitudes. He wants us to examine our lives daily and see what we have done. If we do that, it will change because we will see the action of God in our lives. It will show on our faces and in our lives. Second thing. I heard, “Hear my voice and harden not your heart.” Through technology creating noise, iphone, games, etc. The Lord said, “If you harden your hearts, how can I reach you?” That’s why he wants us to see what he does in our lives each day. He wants us to be simple.

Le – Confirm what Celine said, “Look around you and see what I have done and what I can do in you.” God wants us to look around and see what he has done and what we can do in this world through Him.

Tru – This room is like the Upper Room. Each of us loves Jesus, each of us wants to be his disciple, He is in our midst.  Felt encouragement from God.

Maura – North Carolina - I was thinking of Mary, Joseph, Joachim and Ann, Elizabeth and Zechariah before the Angel Gabriel came. How they followed the faith for .Israel. They praised and honored the One True God and ran their lives according to his precepts. They did not know Jesus yet. Then the Angel Gabriel came and Jesus was conceived. I have had children myself and I was aware that Mary and Joseph went through the nine month waiting period together, seeing the baby's growth in the womb and knowing that they had not had intercourse. What wonder must have filled them! They knew he was going to be totally unique, the Son of God. How could they comprehend the reality of it? They must have wondered what he would be like. Then the child is born. Shepherds came, directed by angels. Kings came and bowed down before him. And at his circumcision in the temple, he is acknowledged. All this made the truth of Jesus' nature as both God and man alive to me in a new way. It change and deepened the faith I already had and made even more awesome the fact of who I was receiving at communion the next morning.

Liz – Pennsylvania – Heard the Lord say, “I tell you, I love you more than the flowers, more than all of creation because you, my children, have placed your trust in me. I am the Way, the Truth and the Life.” Acts 26:16 "I have appeared to you for this purpose, to appoint you as a servant and witness of what you have seen [of me] and what you will be shown."
Song: The Lord inhabits the praise of his people.

Martina – West Virginia - I saw Jesus bless the whole world. He sprinkled holy water and sent an overpowering of graces and blessings to all the participants of Power Tongues International as their prayers soothes his broken heart. He said, “Precious children, I love  seeing your warm, loving hearts in this cold ,frigid world. It gives me much joy. You will be duly blessed for spending this time with me, your Savior. Touch as many lives as possible. Bring them to Me. I have no hands or feet. I need you to gather wayward souls to my kingdom. Precious children, I love you,"

Maya – Fresno CA - I saw a large mountain. At the top of it was a vivid green grass and snow coating the top. The mountain’s cold dark shadow casts itself on the grass below. Then I saw a vast grey light blue ocean. So vast that from my point of view the only way it ended is when the earth started rounding and turning. Without the Lord’s guidance we are in that darkness, like in the cold dark shadow of the great mountain or only like being in the midst of the ocean. Psalms 29:3 “The voice of the Lord is upon the waters: the God of glory thundered; the Lord is upon many waters”.

Ciria - Fresno CA - I saw a plough being pulled along and its blade was sharp and it went deep. The furrows were going up and down the back and shoulders of our suffering Lords body. His flesh opened laid out and separated from the bone.  Pilgrim Song; Psalms 129:1-4, “They’ve kicked me around ever since I was young.”    —this is how Israel tells it—“They’ve kicked me around ever since I was young,  but they never could keep me down. Their plowmen plowed long furrows up and down my back; Then God ripped the harnesses of the evil plowmen to shreds.” The enemies of Christ’s church don’t spare pain but inflict the most injury; They work the deceitful work of the devil and don’t hold back their hands from bloodshed. They smite Christ, and his church as a plough into man. They plough past the quivering flesh, sinews like clods o clay, They plough deep and long with countless furrows, they leave no portion of the church unfurrowed or unassailed. This end time church is an afflicted nation, lashed by Christ’s adversaries so cruelly that each blow leaves its tears up the ground from one end of the field to the other. Many hearts smitten and sore wounded by them who use the scourge of the tongue; so smitten that their whole character has been cut up and scored by verbal assault. The true church in every age had fellowship with her Lord under his cruel flagellations; his sufferings were as prophecy of what the church would be called thereafter Christ, to endure. Those who laid on the scourge did it with a thoroughness which showed how hearty was their hatred. Christ knew as his enemies gnashed upon him and relentlessly upon those like him. The Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan desires to have you, that he may sift you [tear you apart] as wheat: But I have prayed for you, that your faith fail not: and when you are converted, you will strengthen your fellow We must hear The Pilgrims Song.   

Twyla – Fresno - The lord showed me a healthy heart that was all pink and muscular. The heart was beating a strong and calm rhythmic beat. Then I saw a dark mass to begin to consume that healthy heart it took over section by section. The heart beat became labored and weak. And then before I know it the heart was completely hard and black like an onyx stone. The life and the health of the heart ceased. The unwise mind clung to his chest and died with no wisdom and in the sin of his unwise heart.

(I’m asking for forgiveness from my God and loved ones for harm and pain I have brought to them. I have allowed my life to be unwise in front of them and have been a bad example. We read proverbs together as a group. I have discovered that I am not a wise woman. I lack the fruit of wisdom in my life. I have damaged many aspects of my life because of my foolish way I have conducted myself in front of my loved ones, I have been  disrespectful and not teachable nor taken wise counsel from my teachers. I have become difficult and not a calm person.) 

Melina – Fresno CA - Dear Lord, I love the work you have done in me and my family's lives. I have forgotten how much I enjoy praising your name and studying your word. I admit that I get caught up in my academic life and my anger. When I get busy I forget to pray and make time to read a little bit of the bible every day and thank my creator for the people in my life at home and at the college and most of all the chance to even know who you are all together Lord. When I get angry I don't realize when it's time to forgive the people of their mistakes. I don't take the phrase, "Don't sweat the small stuff" under consideration. As for the good that I do, Lord you know.

I have an appetite to build my understanding of you and your word. One of my favorite sayings of the wise is, "Saying 12: Apply your heart to instruction and your ears to words of knowledge." This is one of my strong skills in school and I find that now I can apply this skill to benefit my relationship with you. Now that family has started prayer night together again, it has motivated me to go back and talk to you every day and feel your love again.

To the prayer warriors: As i prayed tonight I am still blown away by how powerful God is. I have taken the habit of picturing a soft light or a perfect circle in my intelligible world (because nothing is perfect in the "real, physical world" we cannot worship objects because they are only a cheap copy of what is really real). In other words, God does not exist in what we call the real world, which is on earth (where we can touch and see). However, God exists in the intelligible or perfect world. This world is what is truly real, the world where our spirit and mind is released to explore the wisdom offered to us. God bless you all!

Ronald - Fresno CA - He that seeketh knowledge and wisdom with a pure heart will find it, but with knowledge and wisdom will come more questions. He that seeketh knowledge from the Lord will have greater understanding.

Bryanna – Fresno CA - Proverbs 22:27: If you lack the means to pay, your very bed will be snatched from under you. In Christ we have unlimited means. His provisions are not limited to worldly goods. There are some things that money can't buy. In him we have the means to give and receive love. This bears fruit. All of his provisions are given according to his will and in his time. When He is our means, we are free from debt and what he has given us cannot be taken away except by him. Knowing this humbles our hearts. But there is another side to this:

Since Christ is our means, without him we have no means. If we accumulate worldly goods in and ourselves, what we have is limited to what is worldly. We do not have the means to give love or to receive it. This does not bear fruit. When Christ is not our means we are in debt and what we have can be taken away from us. Knowing this makes us bitter and puts fear in our hearts. Both Scenarios appear to be the same from the outside, but a closer look reveals that one bears fruit and the other does not. One will pass away and other is eternal. One makes us humble and the other makes us fearful. The Lord is separating the sheep from the goats, the wheat from the tares. I spent some time reflecting on Mathew 7:24-27, Mathew 13:29-30 and Mathew 25:31-46.

Pat – Staten Island NY - As I prayed in tongues I was led to read all of  Ezekiel 7: Judgment on Israel is near:  :Ending with v. 23 to 27:    “Make a chain for the land is filled with crimes of blood, and the city is full of violence.  Therefore I will bring the worst of the gentiles and they will possess their houses. I will cause the pomp of the strong to cease, and their holy places shall be defiled.  Destruction comes;  they will seek peace, but there shall be none.  Disaster will come upon disaster, rumor will be upon rumor.  Then they will seek a vision from a prophet; but the law will perish from the priest and counsel from the elders.  The king will mourn, the prince will be clothed with desolation, and the hands of the common people will tremble.  I will do to them according to their way, and according to what they deserve I will judge them; Then they will know that I am Lord!”Also led to a reading from Luke 21, v 5-36: “Then as some spoke of the temple, how it was adorned with beautiful stones and donations.  He said, these things which you see - the days will come in which not one stone shall be left upon another that shall not be thrown down. So they asked Him saying, "Teacher, but when will these things be?  And what sign will there be when these things are about to take place?  And He said "Take heed that you not be deceived.  For many will come in my name , saying "I am He, and the time has drawn near, therefore do not go after them, but when you hear of wars and commotions, do not be terrified;  for these things must come to pass first, but the end will not come immediately."

Then He said to them, "Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom.  And there will be great earthquakes in various places, and famines and pestilence; and there will be fearful sights and great signs from heaven.  But before all these things , they will lay their hands on you and persecute you, delivering you up to the synagogues and prisons.  You will be brought before kings and rulers for My name's sake.  But it will turn out for you as an occasion for testimony.  Therefore settle it in your hearts not to meditate beforehand on what you will answer, for I will give you a mouth and wisdom which all your adversaries will not be able to contradict or resist.  You will be betrayed even by parents and brothers, relatives, and friends;  and they will put some of you to death.  And you will be hated by all for my name's sake.  But not a hair of your head shall be lost.  By your patience possess your souls. But when you see Jerusalem surrounded by armies, then know that its desolation is near.  Then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains, let those who are in the midst of her depart, and let not those who are in the country enter her.  For these are the days of vengeance, that all thins which are written will be fulfilled.  But woe to those who are pregnant and to those who are nursing babies in those days!  For there will be great distress in the land and wrath upon the people.  And they will fall by the edge of the sword, and be led away captive into all nations.  And Jerusalem will be trampled by Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled.  And there will be signs in the sun, in the moon, and in the stars;  and on the earth distress of nation, with perplexity,  the sea and the waves roaring,  men's hearts failing them from fear and the expectation of those thing which are coming on the earth, for the powers of the heavens will be shaken.  Then they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.  Now when these things begin to happen, look up and lift up your heads,  because your redemption draws near. Then he spoke to them a parable:  Look at the fig tree, and all the trees.  When they are already budding, you see and know for yourselves that summer is now near.  So you also, when you see these things happening, know that the kingdom of God is near.  Assuredly, I say to you, this generation will by no means pass away until  all things take place.  Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will by no means pass away. But take heed to yourselves, lest your hearts be weighed down with carousing, drunkenness, and cares of this life, and that Day come on you unexpectedly.  For it will come like a snare on all those who dwell on the face of the whole earth.  Watch therefore and pray always that you may be counted worthy to escape all these thing that will come to pass, and to stand before the Son of Man"

Mary – Anthem AZ – Paraphrasing Psalm 86:1-5 Our relationship is more valuable than Gold. Refine your life like precious gold.  Be valuable in the Kingdom of God.  Evaluate your life. Evaluate your relationship with me. Consider the time you dedicate to prayer. I want more of you my dear child.  Seek first the Kingdom of God.

Mallory – MN - As I prayed, I realized I was in a boat. I could only see the front of the boat as it sped through the waters. Sometimes there were waves, and I mean, big waves crashing in

on the boat, and other times it was smooth sailing. The rough waters quit after I contacted

someone to whom I needed to apologize for a harsh remark earlier. After that, the sailing seemed to be smooth. I felt there was some intercessory prayer going on, but I don't know for what or whom. Then the sound of "shhhhh," took over. Maybe I need to be still and know God? I don't know. This is all I got out of this prayer session.

Madeleine – London UK - I feel The Lord is stressing on two important words for us to meditate upon and use this month, and they are "peace" and "understanding."

In closing: There are some strong words here and a lot to take to the Lord for reflection.

Pray: Lord we lift these words to you. That which is from you, let it take root and produce much fruit. Bring peace and understanding as we continue to grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Next session is November 3. Please pray about participating.

Power Tongues notes 9/1/2013

Home Team

Linda S – Feeling an exhortation to gather together, the needing of the support. Sense God is reminding us the power of two by two, or more. Don’t stop gathering. Also sense him reminding us to bring him into every communication, every conversation with others. To somehow make prayer a part of it. He is stretching us to do that. Even in the most secular conversation we can make prayer a part of it, simply, because that’s who we are.

Rod – Confirming Linda’s word. Had a vision of an ark. God wants us to use the tools that he has given them, such as justice, truth, integrity. He’s teaching us to grow in these aspects of his nature, so that when we gather the people up into the ark they will be prepared to do this. Titus 2:11-14, about the grace of God. To live temperately, justly, as we await the hope. He is cleansing for himself a people of his own.

Barbara - Heard the Lord say, ‘are you ready’? (She first thought the word was just for herself, then she heard it again and understood it to mean all of us.) He was saying to all of us, that we need more quiet time. In a recent message of Pope Francis, he was telling us to shut out the noise of the world, to prepare us for whatever he wants us to do.

Adrienne - Reminded of a message on ETWN the other day, where Mother Angelica was talking about being ‘in the quiet’, shutting out the noise of the world to hear the Lord. Praying for the persecuted church in Africa, and saw in a vision first Tanzania, then the Congo, then Uganda. Saw huge cracks in the soil in the jungle. Saw the need for healing and reparation. She began to pray reparation prayers. Then she heard “pray that the people in authority would stop abusing their own people.” Saw doves, with gorgeous ribbons with little hearts on them, coming down, and felt that God was healing and freeing the people. At one point saw people who had been turned into dummies because their power was taken from them.

Linda M – Felt a sense of seriousness, calm, a different atmosphere. The Lord was reassuring us about the trouble in the middle east and asking us to pray for peace.

Betty - When I first started praying, saw our Lady of Guadalupe. Focus was on our country. That we are becoming less and less caring for life. All these issues in our country are connected to her, our Lady of

Guadalupe, Our Lady of Refuge, Good Counsel, Immaculate Conception. Our Lady of America. That we need to ask her intercession for our country. And ask the intercession of Saint Padre Pio, because we are going more and more into impurity and he has a special love for our country.

Theresa - Jesus was delivering his mercy. Some places he was sprinkling mercy, some places dropping bricks of mercy. Then in the middle east, it was difficult to get through the chaos to deliver the mercy.

Celine - Jesus will work with the remnant. When the time comes he will put the words into our mouth. He will tell us exactly what to say, not yet, but when the time comes.

Bob - Confirmation. We need to pray for our national leaders, that they would be guided by the Holy Spirit. And we need to pray for our children while they go back to school, that they be protected from all the things they are exposed to.

Shelly (praying while on a long drive home during the session time) - I began praying for young women caught in human trafficking. I saw angels going to the girls telling them they are worthy and wanted in healthy loving ways. I prayed for their deliverance. Then as I was driving through the agricultural areas between Fresno and Los Banos, California, I prayed for the workers who have been trapped, tricked into coming here for a better life but then caught into a system of near-slave labor that they cannot escape. I prayed for their safety, for justice, for safe passage into fair employment and legal residence for those who have not yet obtained it. I felt God's hand on the area, his presence in their lives. The sunset was beautiful and the song "How Great is Our God" came to me and I changed the words in the verses to prayers for the workers and sang the chorus as I watched the beautiful sunset that God provided.

Madeleine –London UK - Keep an open heart my child, and let me grow in you through you and into others with your help and example, I am with you at all times, I will never leave you, I love you my child!

Fresno group - The Fresno group is very busy these days. Yet another funeral this past month and another is dying from cancer. We need your prayers as we press through these trials. We love and appreciate PTI, for without it, our vision would dim. We are encouraging each other to pray, even if simple or silent, just pray. God bless each effort to please our Lord. Prayer can feel dry sometimes, but we must. Pray inwardly, even though you feel no joy in it. For it does good, though you feel nothing, see nothing, yes, even though you think you cannot pray. For when you are dry and empty, sick and weak, your prayers please God, though there be little enough to please you. All believing prayer is precious in his sight. God accepts the good-will and work of his servants, no matter how we feel. Feeling guilt does little good, as we cannot judge ourselves, He alone is our judge and discerns the intent of our hearts. When we pray in tongues it is the Spirit that prays and speaks mysteries unto God....."A man who speaks in a tongue is talking not to men but to God. No one understands him, because he utters mysteries in the Spirit" (1 Cor 14:2). When we speak in tongues, we utter mysteries to God. We communicate at a level which is beyond our human capabilities. Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. Philippians 4:6., Eph 6:18; iti 2:1 Father, fill us with love for You and a desire to praise You. In Jesus' name, stir up the Holy Spirit in us to pray in another language. Remove all obstacles in the way of receiving this gift. May we pray in tongues daily for several minutes. Thank You. Amen.......You have asked and received. Now, thank and praise the Lord in your native language. Then obediently extend your expressions of love by praying in tongues.

Ciria - Fresno - I closed my eyes and ears opened. Immediately I could hear chimes ringing and the wind blew around them until the ringing became a song. I reached out to touch the chimes and noticed that written on each one was the commandments and precepts of the Lord God. As I touched each chime, the writing transferred to my hands like a bracelet. I placed the writing onto my eyelids and on my forehead was stamped his olive branch. I knew that this prayer is fastening my soul to God and making me one with his will, through the work of the Holy Spirit. Deut 6:4-9 Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one a Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength. These commandments that I give you today are to be on your hearts. Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up. Tie them as symbols on your hands and bind them on your foreheads. Write them on the doorframes of your houses and on your gates.

Sion - Cerritos, CA - Saw Jesus in a white long robe teaching in a crowd while surrounded by angels. White smoke covering the background area where he was seated; located next to a water creek flowing in the background. He said “Open your hearts to the Holy Spirit who will guide you accordingly with the Father’s teachings and help you to attain your citizenship in heaven. The road is narrow and there are times when with weakened faith will make you ask ‘Why Lord are things happening to me, or why is this happening to a certain family member’. I hear your needs and aspirations, but we all have to embrace the Father’s will. That is the test of a true and faithful servant, you are ready to carry your cross, the Father punishes and prunes the tree of those that He has chosen.”

“Open your hearts and the will of the Almighty Father shall be revealed to you accordingly. Use your gifts accordingly, I am blessing everyone in this prayer ministry that they may continue spreading the healing touch of the Holy Spirit. There is so much to be done, so much prayers and fasting needed to avert a war in the Middle East.” Pray my children and keep clean and open hearts. The Lord then seemed to be floating above the ground and he gave anointing and blessing to those who were present.

Pattie - Raleigh, NC - "Tell everyone about the Lamb's Supper, the Holy Eucharist, the Mass as Heaven on earth": Revelation 5 & John 6:56. People do not know this. When we touch, when we receive the Holy Eucharist, we are touching Eternity!

Martina -West Virginia – “My peace I give to you. Precious children this day gather all my blessings and mercies and scatter them all over the world. This world needs my love. Precious children, I love you.” I saw Jesus’ heart placed on the earth and he sprinkled holy water and said, “Go in peace to love and serve the Lord.”

Mallory – Minnesota - I prayed for an intense half an hour in tongues. During this time the idea of praying for peace came to my mind, especially in Syria. I also saw the Pope as he consecrated the world to the Mother of God. As I prayed, the words, "Hail Mary, full of grace" formed in tongues as I prayed four times. I sang in tongues part of the time, too. I have no interpretation of the songs. The only thing I can say is that the songs were light and joyful.

Closing Prayer

Thank you Lord for the grace of these words. Let that which is from you take root and produce much fruit. We thank you that we are growing in the grace and knowledge of our
Lord Jesus Christ.



Next session is October 6. Let’s pray for full participation next time!

Power Tongues notes 8/4/2013

PTI Home Team

Linda S – Saw a person planting seeds. Someone came along to show how to dig stake deep to plant seeds very deep. Then he coached other seed planters. It was the planter’s official job. Then saw official waterers. All had badges, then harvesters had their badges. Heard the Lord telling us to enjoy our calling. You might cross over to other areas, but enjoy the primary call he’s given us. He’s gifted us for it. If we enjoy it, it’ll be easy. If you stay in your calling it’ll be easy.

Linda M – “Be joyful as you go about your life – in your joy you shall touch other children, other people. They will know I am God, a God of love. Joy is the big word tonight. Interceding for people who may be Catholic but not in the church anymore, they felt God is a punishing God, but the Lord says, “No, tell them I love them and I will love them into perfection, each child is so precious in my eyes, not one will I reject. Encourage them to come to me and I love them without limit.”

Mike - On the gifts. Lord is telling us to let the Holy Spirit do the work, for us to stay strong in his word and stand on his work, but trust the Holy Spirit to do the work, the power of the Holy Spirit is to work through us, we’re not the one to make it happen. Take the burden off our backs and let it be the Lord. He will give us the gifts of wisdom, knowledge, praising God. Increase our prayer time and let him know that our mind set is to let him do it, not us. On a daily basis. He is waiting for us. There’s a time when the English language isn’t sufficient. Exercise the gift of tongues, let your voice go straight to the heart of God. He knows what we need instead of what we think we need.

Rod – I saw vision of man embracing another man from behind. It was the Lord embracing the man. Then intercession, felt overwhelming reverence. Then saw same embracing of man, but now facing the Lord, whole different feeling now. It was now jubilation, joy, peace. That was the whole vision.

Theresa – Spent whole time knocking down false walls, for each person here, for things we build up, like fears, the things that separate us. Then it came that the Lord was building up his walls around us to secure us. Each person had a different wall coming up. Then expanded intercession to all who are praying with us. Each wall was protecting from something different.

Bob – Felt encouragement from the Lord that during these very challenging times, keep your eyes focused on him.

Adrienne – Began praising on the way over to the gathering. When arrived and as soon as closed eyes, saw painting of Jesus on road to Emmaus. Heard the words, “they recognized him in the breaking in the bread.” Then heard Lord say, there are so many of my people who, outside of the breaking of the bread, don’t believe in me. Pray that they would see me in the Eucharist. Mother Mary will be very helpful in this. He is bringing us so much strength in the communion; we can’t possibly conceive the riches he has for us when we receive him.

Barbara – Interceding for Middle East. Heard Lord say ‘let my people go’. Pray for my people in chains. It was for his people being discouraged. The more we continued saw the chains dropping, his people being freed. So many of his people are in chains. We need more people praying in tongues for his people so the chains will drop, to set his people free.

Shelly – Heard word ‘mercy’ just before beginning. Then had human trafficking on heart; interceded for those trapped in human trafficking, on both sides. For the women, that they will see the gift of who they are, that people will come to tell them the value in the Lord. As it continued, a river appeared and the girls began to be able to cross safely. As the enslavers tried to capture them back, they fell in the river and were washed away. Then the girls started drawing other girls across and the enslavers kept trying to get them back but kept being washed away. Then saw Mother Mary come and put white robes on the girls; then Jesus came and baptized them in the river. It was totally safe for them to enter the river. Only the enslavers were washed away. The girls were safe and were baptized in it.

Betty – Saw two oxen pulling a wagon, going very slow because unevenly yoked. Lord said, “I have a precious load in this wagon and need it to go”. He said, “I have given you each a job to do and you need to be evenly yoked.” Then saw other wagons that were moving fine because they were evenly yoked. The Lord was saying that we need to do what we are called to; confirmed Linda’s word. Then saw weights that were uneven/unbalanced and heard him say that we need to find balance, balance is so important, important to find time with him.

Adrienne – Confirm Shelly’s word. Today’s news said that 105 children were able to be released. Been praying for the children caught in human trafficking and the conversion of the perpetrators.

Celine – Given history of martyrdom. Doesn’t matter when started, but after Jesus, they died because they believed, because they have faith. Still same today. Jesus saying, ‘live your faith, do not be ashamed of your God. Live it openly.”

Martina – West Virginia - I saw a chain around the world, each link was a prayer team member, an angel held the link when a nation was not represented, we were all lifted to the throne room and were gathering blessings send down from heaven, I saw all who were praying carrying wicker baskets and gathering the harvest and the Lord said "The harvest is plentiful but the laborers are few" My precious children, stay close to Me. I will safeguard you from bodily harm, I will protect the religious freedom you seek. I am with you through all the trials the church faces, I will impart knowledge to you. Seek me alone. Precious children, do not fear man, he can do nothing to harm your spiritual beliefs, it is between Jesus and you.” I see a group pull down blessings from heaven like strands of ribbon, we were gathering the blessings for all on earth. "Seek first the Kingdom of heaven and all else will be added on."

July – Venezuela - Jesus Christ showed me his wounds, and his words were: ‘By my wounds you were were healed. You who have your hearts with great pain, who are suffering in different ways, come close to me, and I will heal you. My Holy Spirit will provide you with my peace, that the world cannot give you. Come to me my children.”

Maria - North Carolina - You are no longer lost sheep. Be brave. Do not be afraid because I your God am leading you. You are not sure which way to turn. When in distress call on my holy virgin mother to help you. Amore-love conquers all, destroys the sting of pain and hurt. Depend on her graces in your situations. She will pray for you. I will hear her prayers.

Madeleine – London UK - After praying in tongues this is what I heard The Lord telling me: "Seek ye not justice in this world but know that you will be judged fairly in the next for I am the Lord thy God and I love you with an everlasting love!" I was then lead to Psalm 9:8, "He will judge the world in righteousness. He will govern the peoples with justice."

Caroline - Be doers of the Word. Going deeper and deeper with my Word. Not merely hearers thus deceiving oneself. Take my Word as it is. Do not water it down. It is your shield, your armor , the Sword of the Spirit.

Mallory – Minnesota - As I began to pray, I saw images of priests I know and priests I have known and priests that I did not know, including Cardinal Dolan and Pope Francis. I saw the Christ crucified and the cross alone. These images of the Cross and Jesus on the Cross mixed with the images of the priests. I saw the Cross in a beautiful garden. I thought this was unusual, but there were many lay people there giving glory to God. I saw a light form behind the cross and the words, "This is my beloved Son," formed in my mind. I saw our priests performing their priestly duties. They were counseling people and hearing confessions. I can only assume that this means that we need to pray for our priests daily for they have heavy crosses to bear in order to bring their congregations to God our Father, through Jesus and the Holy Spirit. Again when I prayed in tongues, I kept hearing the words ‘precious, precious, precious’.

Prayer: Lord Jesus, thank you for the precious time with you. We return all of these words to you and ask that whatever is from you, let it bear rich fruit. Those things that just came from our minds, let them be washed away as we continue to grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.

Power Tongues notes 7/7/2013

Home Group

Theresa – Heard the Lord say, “Let me set this straight – your sins will be washed away and you will be whiter than snow.”

Linda – Sensed an encouraging word. He is deepening our gifts. Season of grace, answering prayers left and right, we are leaving deep footprints, he will break through in many levels.

Rod – Call to intensify our prayer, be simple and humble, He will give the words you need, call on him, believe in him, he will put you to work, so prepare yourself for this work, be spiritually fit.

Barbara – Thinking of all the problems, family, world . With each one that came to mind, he would say, “Give it to me” and he would wash it away. Kept hearing that for each problem.  At peace now. Had peaceful wind of the spirit on face, very gentle for all of us.

Mary Ellen – Seems like always asking for things, thought of disciples that they were giving thanks – thought of words from Mass – thank you Lord for hearing our prayer. So began turning tongues into thanksgiving. What we need to know will come when we need it and when we can bear it.

JP – Saw a snake, a serpent – contained by big bowl over it. On one side of the bowl was a crucifix – serpent was completely sealed in jar. Saw children crawling on table near serpent but crucifix was there and children were not harmed; they were safe because crucifix was there. See Psalm 51 – cleanse me with hissop, create in me a clean heart oh Lord.

Theresa – Had burden for kids. Saw our prayers shutting mouths of “yappers” that are telling lies to kids; then they were all quiet. Then came praying in all the good words, prophets, etc speaking good words to the children – intercession for children.

Betty – Saw a colorful top, large top, colors, stripes around it – spinning. So many people involved in themselves and the world that they are spinning in circles but never advance in spiritual life. We can do that by spinning and not being open to the Spirit. They were spinning so much that they were starting to drill themselves into the ground. Then from ground there was a stench coming up, then above there was a dark layer it was causing. But above that was brightness. It was all the graces that people were not asking for.  Then singing in the group started and holy clouds started swirling and the darkness dispersed and the graces began to flow to the people. Prayed that the people receive the graces. Instead of stench began smell of roses, then large fan in rainbow colors, in center was diamonds. Great graces will come from youth day with Holy Father.  Holy Father has been given special talents and gifts for the church. He was at the center of the fan and the gifts are being dispersed to the church, especially youth.

Mike – Don’t be so anxious, don’t worry so much. God has a plan for each one of his children. In his time, all the little things we each do will be big things.  He will tell us eventually why he did what he did and why didn’t do what he didn’t do.  Don’t be intimidated. The Holy Spirit is more powerful than anything we’ve ever encountered and is taking us right where he wants us to go. Let the Holy Spirit speak for us and do for us things we never thought of. The voice you know is the voice of Jesus. He is in our hearts. “Don’t look back, follow me.”

Victoria – As we praise in tongues so much deliverance takes place.  We are praying for others even though we don’t know who we are praying for and deliverance is taking place.

Soosay – Focused prayers on priest coming to the parish.

Steve – First saw light in this room. Then don’t remember, then saw light again, then don’t remember, then light again – three times. He is going to shine his light in the darkness. Don’t worry about it, he is going to make the dark places bright.

Adrienne - It was as if I was flying very fast close to the ground, over very arid ground. With all that is happening in the world I thought at first it had to do with that. The words that came were,"Spiritual aridity,”. I asked if he meant the world in general. The words that came were: " Many of my priests suffer from spiritual aridity from from overwork and lack of personal devotion to me and lack of time for prayer. Pray them back into a deep and solid Eucharistic and Spirit-filled prayer life. Pray for unity with Peter. My daughters too have strayed away from the charism of their orders. I call all to holiness and charity, not social justice. If you love me and my Church the rest will follow." As I continued to pray, the ground started to show green sprouts which grew and multiplied until the soil was covered with strong green trees. Their branches lifted up in praise to their creator. There were forests. Then I was supposed to pray for rectors and teachers in the seminaries. Pray for courage and the protection of the Mother of God.
Last but not least was the thought to pray for Pope Francis and for the youth especially in Brazil who have an inter-generational bondage with occult stuff such as voodoo etc. I saw chains and then as I prayed for them to be open to the Holy Spirit the chains started to fall, they were no longer tight. The presence of the Holy Spirit is so strong in the Holy Father that the Lord will do much. Called to pray for his protection and stamina, health. Readings: Ezekiel 3:17 This is the reading about the watchman. My understanding is that although many are called to be watchmen the priests are called in a very special way to warn the people of the dangers in the culture and to strengthen them spiritually in word and sacrament by speaking the truth. Ezekiel 36:25-29 had to do with the sprinkling of water to cleanse them of their impurities. Ezekiel 47:1-11 but especially  the verse where the fruit trees would be fed by the stream coming from beneath the temple, the stream coming from the sanctuary. The priests and religious as they come deeper and deeper into prayer before the Blessed Sacrament and celebration of the Mass the Lord will bring much healing and restoration to His body. It seemed like there was a lot about water.

Celine – Confirmation of what Linda, Theresa and Rod said. Praying intensely, at end an exhortation to raise hands to let graces flow. Faith, trust and surrender are key.

Shelly – Saw a ring of redwoods; about leadership. Also confirm that prayers having significant effect even when we don’t know what we’re praying for specifically.

Madeleine – London UK - Listen to me, I am shouting out from three mountain peaks, one is Honor, one is Power and the other is Integrity. You all have the power to overcome the enemy, The honor to walk in my footsteps, and the integrity to follow Me.  My children you are mine and I am yours. Where ever you go I am with you, I will never leave you. Listen to my voice and I will lead you! I love you with an everlasting love!

Heart of Jesus Prayer Community Glendale CA

Rolando - Saw Mass in progress, but the priest had no face. Each person who received communion was enveloped in flame as they received.  Some however were not touched by the flames but just received.  People were healed and were rejoicing and praising God. 

Donna - Saw a surface that was silver. Kind of looked like water but not quite.  The image of Christ as the Sacred Heart with hands outstretched shone above. Every once in a while a person would climb up (no faces or features, like a little, black cartoon image of a person) above the silver surface and kneel down and thank and praise God.

Sandy – Saw Mary and Joseph. Great joy. Then John the Baptist.  The light of the Lord shone about. Real bright.  Mary walking with us. It was a birthing of some kind.

Barbie – Saw a narrow bridge with lots of lights. God's love. Fear not.

Raffy – Saw a dove, the Holy Spirit.  Looking in the sky saw the face of Jesus for a split second.

Lita - Saw a street. Saw different people but only in silhouette, standing.  Some were easy to see because there was a lot of light. Some harder to see, because the light was very dim, really dark.

Roberto - Praying in a Church with his wife.  The sun is coming through and can see the ocean outside, very bright.

Fresno Group: God bless our brothers and sisters, What a wonderful prayer time we had. Although it has only been a month, it feels like a year. Our beloved father, godfather and grandfather, passed away on June 12,2013. We rejoice that his eternity has begun and are sad because we will miss him dearly. As a family we went through several trials just to get him buried, and came out as overcomers, yet again through the forgiveness and grace of our Lord Jesus Christ. We are sharing from our hearts with you. Pray for us here in Fresno, California.   Love, Fresno Prayer Group

Ciria - Fresno - I saw a large loop where we were open and vulnerable, like an opening a natural pasture for his people, a clearing has been provided through the brambling bush. These are the ones. The sheep to his right hand. They hear his voice and they turn their white faces toward him and follow him wherever he goes, they follow him. These are not lost sheep, these are the faithful and true. …”These are they overcame Satan and this world, by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto death…Revelation 12:11” They who follow will learn of him, and know him, even as they are known.

Maya – Fresno – As I began to pray, I was thinking about the “Our Father Prayer”. Getting closer to you Lord, taking care of his creation, his mountain. I thought of the two paths, heaven and hell. Heaven’s road is a narrow road that leads to eternal life, and hell has the wider broader path. I heard this once in a bible study too, from my baby days. Grandma always read from the Bible. My mind will wander off from God…worse since summer started. I ask the Almighty to forgive me. For not focusing on him. I felt warmth and acknowledgement. If God is our conscience, then he told me to get myself focused, start reading the bible, take care of my body, his creation care and help others around me. The Our Father Prayer./ I prayed and broke it down: Our Father who art in heaven, all of us have a father, creator and eternal life.. Heaven. Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come; he will share his great gifts. Forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us. Lead us not into temptation. God forgives us, we must do the same to everyone. God will lead us if we accept him into our lives.

Melina – Fresno - The first thing I saw was a piece of rope in a crowd of people below. There were two mountains beside each other and an animal that might be a bull on the right side of the mountain. There was a crowd of people in the ditch area and the ground they were standing on was lowering. The last thing I saw was a bright but a soft flash of light coming from the sky. This was when I thought about the Lords hand reaching out to his people. He asked “What are the people doing”? It looked like some of them were near the edge of the mountain and as they were climbing up and sliding back down. I asked the Lord to show me something. I asked, is there anything you want to tell or show me?  Mathew 7:13 & 14.

Twyla - Fresno - I saw myself on a free standing wood and rope bridge. I look ahead and behind and I could not see a beginning or an end of the bridge. It went on as far as my eyes could see and it disappeared in the distance. I was surrounded by hills and mountains in the distance. I was surrounded by tropical trees, bright colored flowers and exotic fruit.  All around were plush green hills and mountains. But below the plush trees was a fast moving stream of black fiery lava; it was a river of fire. I kept walking down the bridge from time to time, and the bridge would rock and I would become unstable and lose my footing. Read Psalms 1.

David - Fresno – Here is the question: Are you a confused mule? Zechariah 14:9 And the Lord shall be King over all the earth: in that day there shall be one Lord and his name shall be one. I saw a great multitude of people of all kinds from all over the earth. Men and women, young and old, some with children. They were confused as they went about doing what each one lusted after, without concern for the consequences. Overtaken by fear, they were cast off by God and fell over a cliff. I asked, Lord who are they? They are the idolators, that do abominable wickedness in my sight. They have gone back from their first love, following teachers and ministers that are unrepentant and have iniquity in their mouth. I have written my word on their hearts and they foolishly say there is no God. There are none that do good and are altogether corrupt. Do not be like the horse or mule that does not understand and be led with a bridle by the ungodly. Search my word and I will instruct you in the way you shall go, preserve and compass you with joyful deliverance. 2Timothy 3:4,5 Traitors, heady, high-minded, lovers of pleasures more than followers of God. Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.

Bryanna - Fresno: A Dream: He watches every move she makes from his apartment window. She is his whole world. He waits for the day that she will come out of her apartment and down to the street to greet him. She is the love of his life. She on the other hand is distracted by a big movie screen that is always in front of her face. This screen plays moments of her life on it. She can't see anything else. Not even the man that is watching her. At times she is aware of him but for the most part all she see's is the screen. When she takes a shower, it's not just a shower. It's an endless maze of fog that she travels through. Ghostly figures jump out at her as she tries to make her way through the fog. She walks for miles and miles through this maze reliving the past. She is lost and does not know how to get out. At times she may see the street in which she must met her love, but the street disappears quickly. If only she could make it to the street, the man that she knows to be her land lord will meet her and show her the map of her mind. With the map she can find her way out of this maze. To make a long story short, she and the man do eventually meet in the street. He does show her the map. It is filled with people and places. Memories and moments rather then buildings and locations. He tells her “Don't get lost in the details and analysis. Live in the reality of today.”

Ann - THE L.I.F.E. CENTRE, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

Following is what the Holy Spirit revealed to me. Psalm 81-3-4 (NIV) "Sound the ram’s horn at the New Moon, and when the moon is full, on the day of our festival; this is a decree for Israel, an ordinance of the God of Jacob." This verse signifies the Jewish celebration of Rosh Hashanah - a day set aside for repentance.  The Holy Spirit asked me to search what the New Covenant message is for this Old Covenant requirement. This is what He showed me " Rosh Hashanah is also known as the Day of Judgment." Rev 21:6-8 (NIV) " He said to me: “It is done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. To the thirsty I will give water without cost from the spring of the water of life.  Those who are victorious will inherit all this, and I will be their God and they will be my children.  But the cowardly, the unbelieving, the vile, the murderers, the sexually immoral, those who practice magic arts, the idolaters and all liars—they will be consigned to the fiery lake of burning sulfur. This is the second death.”

Liz – Scranton PA - I felt the Lord telling us that we can all be instruments of peace:
Song: Peace is flowing like a River. My peace is flowing like a river, you only need to come and drink. The river flows from my heart; it flows for all mankind; it never stops searching for those who are thristy. Come to the water, drink deeply that you may come to know the love I have for you. Seek me where you are for I will not let you out of my gaze. I love you, my children.

Pattie – Raleigh NC – Strength will rise as we wait upon the Lord; we will wait upon the Lord; we will wait upon the Lord. Strength will rise as we wait upon the Lord, we will wait upon the Lord, we will wait upon the Lord! Amen!

Prayer: Lord we give these words and images to you. Let that which is from you take root and produce fruit. Let that which is from our natural minds only, let it be washed away in your love. Teach us to listen and respond. Thank you Lord. Amen.

Next session is  August 4, 2013
