Shalom,
dear friends in Y'shua!
The Lord's grace and peace be to you from
Jerusalem, the center of the
world!
NHRM 2006 International
Campmeeting
As the
Israeli Defense Forces have broken through into Lebanon
in order to remove hindrances to
their security, so the Lord has declared that His Bride
has now entered into the time of
the "Breakthrough Glory!"
This was given by the Lord to Pastor Shelley as the
emphasis that He wanted for the New Hope Revival
Center's 2006 International Campmeeting
in Smiths Station, AL.
The
campmeeting is in full swing and has
been so wonderful! I have been streaming
every service by computer from Jerusalem and have
been very blessed by God's breakthrough into the
services!
The
Manifest Presence of the Lord has come
many times and touched people's lives and brought
deliverances from bondages and ailments.
One night
Pastor Shelley saw the Pillar
of Fire for a long time as he was praying for
people. It sometimes hovered between them and
sometimes circled around them.
Special
guest, Paul Keith Davis, brought a
powerful word about a breakthrough
release where God is going to do for us what we
can't do for ourselves. He emphasized that this
generation is about sons and daughters of God
becoming Christ's reflection. He
prayed for every person in the building, releasing that
breakthrough anointing and giving confirming
words.
Last week
Pastor Shelley preached great messages on the
pattern for personal breakthrough
and the prophetic power of an anointed
testimony. I have shared more about this
below.
You can
see a slide show from the first half of
the campmeeting on the homepage of www.revival.org. The campmeeting doesn't end until
this Sunday so there is still time for you
to attend or stream the services.
There will be a prayer line Saturday
night and there is a great expectation that God will do
more miracles! One sister has
already been healed from
breast cancer after being prayed for
last Sunday! Her doctor was astounded!
To God be the
glory!
Now Is the Time for the Breakthrough
Glory
Early in
the morning on 2006-07-09, Pastor Shelley felt
the purposes of God rolling over him like
waves from the top of his head to the
soles of his feet. And then he asked the Lord for
more clarification:
But
God has been speaking to people all over the world that
this is the year, or the time, or the hour for
breakthroughs.
And I said, "If this
is really the hour for our breakthroughs, if this is
really the hour that the breakthrough glory is going to
be poured out upon us, then show me how it comes.
Show me how it
comes."
And I saw it like a
river rushing down a mountain. And that river was carrying away
everything in its path.
I saw trees that were
tall, huge, gigantic-looking trees. And I saw the
roots were almost as deep, long, as
the trunks of the trees.
And this water came
from the top of the mountain, came
rushing down like this - not in a straight path,
but came rushing down as though it
was making a bed for itself. And I saw it
moving boulders, huge boulders, out of the way.
But it was
huge trees that were being plucked up.
I heard the suction sound, a
"whoof" kind of sound, coming as the
water was plucking those trees up. And I saw the roots stuck straight up in the
air. And they were being
carried away by the river.
I just said, "Lord, if
this is for us, if this is the hour of breakthrough
glory among us, show me how it will
come."
And that’s how He
showed it to me. It literally moved
everything out of its way.
Hallelujah.
Paul Keith Davis saw
the revelation of angels that gather,
that come and remove every obstacle and every hindrance
and everything that’s in the way - in our way, in God’s
way. He saw it as angels coming to gather it.
Anybody got anything
that you’d like to see pushed out of the way by the
river of God’s Spirit? - Circumstances?
Situations? Hindrances?
Maybe there’s a part
of you . . . Maybe there’s still a part of
you that you’d like to see carried away in the
glory, pushed out of the way.
Hallelujah.
Well, I believe it’s
ordered of God for you. I believe it’s already
ordered. I believe the order is turned in. I
don’t believe it’s going to come back as a backorder.
I believe the delivery date is set.
And God is getting ready to release that
into your life.
The Pattern for Personal
Breakthrough
Taking a text from 1
Kings 17:8-16 about Elijah asking the widow woman to
bake him a cake first, Pastor Shelley
gave the following pattern for personal
breakthrough:
1. First, we
have a Word from God.
2. Next, there is
a test regarding that Word to see how
we will react.
3. It requires the
sowing of a significant seed to receive
the Promise.
4. It is wise for
our seed to be related to our
breakthrough because there is power in
agreement.
The Prophetic Power of an Anointed
Testimony
Near the beginning
of the campmeeting, Pastor Shelley related
something the Lord had told him on the plane returning
from Iceland. "I want you to teach the people the
prophetic power of a testimony." God said,
"One of the ways I'm going to multiply miracles
in these last days is by the prophetic power of a
testimony."
A power is released when
we give an anointed, ordained-of-God testimony. He
emphasized and re-emphasized that there's a power
released when we declare the works of
God.
The Lord also told him that in
the same manner that Israel is dealing with old
business, the Lord was coming into our meetings
to deal with old business. He said that
the glory of God was ready to be released to
deal with old issues that are keeping us from our
destinies. The Lord said to shake off our
heavy bands because He was sending a glory that would
overtake us.
He said it would be like the
bunker-busting bombs that Israel is
using - power that will go beneath the surface down
to the marrow of the bone to deal with all that
"stuff." Then we will know that the
glory of God has given us total freedom and
victory.
More
Sermons Posted
I have posted four more of Pastor
Shelley's recent sermons to his website. Just go
to www.revival.org,
Sermons,
2006 and then go to the bottom
of the list. Here are some quotes from these
messages. Much more understanding can be found by
reading the sermons
themselves.
God Granting Repentance - Part
1 (2006-06-18)
Repentance is God’s gift to
you. He has granted you the blessing of
being able to change your life, to change your will, to
follow Him.
In the
same manner He picked you up and turned you around and
showed you your need of a Savior, granted you
repentance, caused you to become a new creature in Him,
He knows how. He can do the very same
thing for those you love.
You did
it. You surrendered. But you couldn’t have
done it if He hadn’t have let you. You
couldn’t have done it if He hadn’t have called
you. You couldn’t have surrendered if He
hadn’t have let you realize you needed to
surrender.
God Granting Repentance -
Part 2
(2006-06-20)
We have
to remember tonight that God allowing or not allowing
repentance, God granting repentance or not granting
repentance, is based on His foreknowledge of
us. It is not a random choice.
And because we don’t know
who repentance is granted to and who it will not be
granted to, we should be patient in our
instruction and meek, trying to teach . . .
And if we are the
redeemed of the Lord, the elected of the Lord, the
chosen of the Lord, then repentance is granted
to us.
Listen, if there would
have been one chance that any of those
Canaanites would have been able to receive repentance,
if there would have been any chance that one of those
enemies of God would have been able to repent and
receive salvation, they would
not have been destroyed.
And if I understand
this right now, really, I believe, based on these
Scriptures and the Message of the Hour, that if
God saw that you were, of course, going to
choose Him and love Him, I believe He placed a
seed within you - His Word in seed
form.
And if He
saw that you were not, you didn’t come here
with a seed of God in your life . . . And
that is why a person like that could resist,
and resist, and resist, and resist till the last minute
on Planet Earth.
"When you can’t go any more,
I’m going to take you to the top on the
wings of a white eagle."
The Seed of
God (2006-06-24)
So some will come to
the faith of God because it’s passed down to
them in a natural sense by the Law - the Jewish
nation, His first Covenant, His first chosen people.
But there’s
others who have the seed. What seed?
The seed of God. And they
come to faith the same way that Abraham came to faith.
When we have seemingly nothing to rejoice
about, there’s something on the inside of
us, that seed of God, that causes us to want to
rejoice anyway.
Our Labor Is To
Yield (2006-07-09)
And
the only way you can miss it in this
appointed hour, this moment that is pregnant with the
purposes of God . . . the only way you can miss it is
by making the wrong choices and decisions right
now.
I don’t want God to
have to make a second pass to get me in. I
want to be a part of the first
pass.
His Presence is there because all
of the worry and the burden and all of the stress of
trying to please Him has been rolled
off of my shoulder. And He says to me, "If
you yield yourself . . ."
There’s no
power within us to please God. There’s
only one way that we can ever please Him or live for Him
and that is to surrender our will, our
choices, our decisions to Him and let Him come by the
Holy Spirit and get inside of us.
I want to tell you that every
time you make a choice, every time you make a decision,
without consulting God or His Word or letting the Spirit
come in to help you or presenting it to God in prayer,
you run the risk of reaping something that won’t
be
pleasant.
The biggest job that God has called you
to do is nothing. That’s it. I like
it.
If you’re doing it,
it is not yieldedness. But if you’re opening up
and saying, "God, do it," that is
yieldedness.
It’s worth
laboring for. Once you enter into that
rest and you start recognizing that the biggest thing
you have to do is yield, God does the
rest.
You don’t do
anything in your own strength for God because if you’ve
done it in your own strength, God immediately
rejects it.
In
Closing
I know you are praying for us
and for Israel - I can feel it! Thank you
so much! Please don't get weary in well
doing!
We greatly appreciate those who have
given financially to help us! Please remember
that our quarterly rent
payment is due in three weeks and we are
depending on God to use you to help us.
Whatever you can do will be sweet incense
offered up unto the Lord in Jerusalem!
May you
experience breakthrough glory in your own
life!
(1Ch
14:11) So they came up to Baal-perazim; and
David smote them there. Then David said, God
hath broken in upon mine enemies by mine hand
like the breaking forth of waters: therefore they called
the name of that place Baal-perazim.
[The Lord of the
Breakthrough]
