(Note from Linda S: In my opening remarks I was led to say: "God has work for us to do. Let's find out what it is." Then we began to pray in tongues and received the following:)
Theresa – My arms kept going up, lifting up, saw bubbles going up like a soda can, thoughts would come up and would just lift them to the Lord. They would come down like balloons, but then would lift it up and they would stay up. Model of lifting up. Certain individual things came up and prayed for those.
Barbara – Prayed “Lord, activate our prayers.” His answer was “Our love is to the ninth power.” Then I opened my eyes and counted and there were nine of us together tonight. Love to the ninth power makes it very powerful. All the angels in heaven are praying with us. All the prayers that we are lifting up are being heard in heaven.
Rod – Heard, “Put your hand to the plow because it is getting close to being nighttime. Be rich in kindness. " Much about building the kingdom. Doing it in love, in hiddenness, behind the scenes. Don’t ever stop serving. You can always be doing something, praying, interceding. We’re coming to Pentecost, makes the building of the kingdom so important. Eph 2:8-10.
Linda S - Separate light from darkness. Clear your thinking. Weed your garden. Sensed the Lord was speaking to individuals here and there who were reading this: One was an admonition to rest, another to say no to certain activities. And then to another, “Rise up to be the person I have created you to be, and fill the position I’ve given you.”
Bob – Jesus lives in us. Be open and accept the new life he gives us each day.
Adrienne – Saw all this water and sunshine sparkling on the water. We are to prepare our hearts and to prepare all the children because he is going to pour his water out on the parched land on the hearts of his people. Wind blew and water came and it flooded. Some people slurped it up; in other areas the water pooled, wouldn’t go down. For those areas we need to pray specifically for openness. He wants to transform, change hearts.
Mike – “Stay with what I taught you.” Holy Spirit is going to manifest himself through us. Be patient, be aware, have faith, hope. We are needed. He is with us, he will never forget us. We all have a mission.
Linda M – Lord saying to focus in on him, he loves us so much. He wants us to focus on him so he can pour his love into us and through us into others. Heard, “Do you know what I’m going to ask you today? To learn to speak of the good in others.”
Shelly –Prayed that we each would know our calling and that God would reveal the hidden treasures within each of us, like cleaning the attic and finding hidden treasure in the boxes. Also, prayed that we each would know the calling for this time of life, for this place in life. Was looking at a picture with a quiet river, trees, and mountains behind. The trees would not survive if they tried to live in the rocky mountain, they need to be by the river. Prayed that we would each know our calling for where we are at this time in life.
Power Tongues Partners
Mallory - Mankato MN - This was an intense prayer session for me. As I prayed I felt the following: Pray for Priests. Pray for your enemies. Pray for the sick. Pray for the souls in purgatory. Pray for peace. Pray for unbelievers.
Gilbert - Modesto CA - Eagles fly in awe, "countless are the galaxies!" They are tiny in comparison to my creation, and beyond your comprehension of infinite. This is how I love you. Praise be to God!
Madeleine - London UK - Whilst praying in tongues for a short while I was interrupted by the words "Rest in me." I knew he was telling me to listen to him and trust him more intently, and not try to be one step ahead which usually turns to worry, but to totally rest in him and let him lead us on a path we cannot fall off. (Thank you Jesus! I Love you Jesus!) Please continue holding me as I rest in you!
Jackie - Garrison, NY - The Lord spoke to me about trusting him, completely trusting him. We need to step out in faith knowing that he is right there with us. His ways are not our ways and we have to trust in his ways.
Pattie - Raleigh, NC - Always: "Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord." Col. 3:16 NKJ "Bind them upon thy fingers, write them upon the table of thine heart." (Prov. 7: 1-3) Let the Word take root in your heart, lest the enemy snatch it way.
Sion - Cerritos CA - "I am delighted to know that you are continuing this prayer and Spirit filled community. Pray earnestly with open hearts and clean minds. Your thoughts are not my thoughts. Families, love with unconditional love and forgiving one another. Husband and wives, keep your marriages intact and your families shall be blessed. Spread the mighty workings of the Holy Spirit. Pray, pray, pray always so that calamities may not cover and hurt the earth and its people. " I then saw the Lord in a white robe anointing people one by one, surrounded by angels who were singing and guarding the Lord.
Maria-Snow Hill, North Carolina - I was led to read Joel
4:9-Announce this to the nations: Proclaim a holy war! Alert the
warriors! Let all the soldiers report and march! I felt
that the Lord said the storm is brewing. The waters are
becoming turbulent. Watch out for a shipwreck. My
thoughts next went to cherries and I could see cherries on the
tree. I then saw that the fruit or some other type fruit
looked like it was rotting. I felt led to Habakkuk
3:17-18-For though the fig tree does not blossom, and no fruit
appears on the vine, though the yield of the olive fails and the
terraces produce no nourishment, though the flocks disappear from the
fold and there is no herd in the stalls, yet I will rejoice in the
Lord and exult in my saving God.
I was wondering what all of this could mean. I found out that a ship is a Christian symbol for the Church. The Church is tossed on the sea until it reaches safe harbor. I believe the Lord is saying we need to prepare for the battle against persecution of Christians and the Church. Just as the crew on a ship has to work together to prevent a shipwreck during a storm at sea, we must stand strong and work together to survive the storm. We must battle for human souls to know Christ and safely reach our destination, eternal life. I believe the passage from Habakkuk is a reminder that no matter the cost, in good times and bad, we should rejoice in God who saves us.
Michelle - Fayetteville NC - I have been given the word 'unity' and have seen it in much of my prayer time and in various conversations and opportunities that have availed itself in my daily walk in life. (I have even had a confirmation from a gentleman I met in a hospital waiting room who said he also has been hearing the same word his church.) The following are words I heard while in prayer: Open up your heart to hear my holy Word. Let my Spirit shine in you and reflect all you have heard. Then know my words are true in faith and must be shared with all. I place my Spirit in your heart, I come to give you peace. I give my word unto your heart so you can be at ease. The words I share, the gifts I give are here for you to share. So use them in a special way and give concern and care. The world that you live in today, is the same as in the past. I send my words with comfort so my peace shall last and last.
Closing prayer:
Thank you Lord for the grace of this time. Help us to maintain open hearts to hear and respond to your word. Let all that was from you take root and produce fruit, and all that was from our limited understanding be washed away, as we continue to grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Next session is July 6.
