More About the Portal
Photo
Paul Keith
Davis has just released an e-newsletter giving some
more incredible background to the photo of
the heavenly portal which Pastor
Shelley took a few weeks ago.
A
week before the Tucson trip, Paul Keith had a revelatory
encounter in which he saw seven white doves fly
through a heavenly portal and a thick dark cloud
following them. He knew that the cloud
represented the Lord's
Presence.
I highly
recommend that you read Paul Keith's testimony of his
experience and His wonderful insight
into the spiritual implications of
these supernatural manifestations. You can read it
from his website by clicking
here.
If you
have already read it, I encourage you to read it
again and meditate on it.
Meditation is the only way we really get something
to go deep into our spirit.
(If
you did not get my last e-mail update about this
experience, you can read it from
our Update from Jerusalem
Archive on the top left side of our
home page.)
My Utmost For His
Highest
During
these past weeks leading up to Pesach
(Passover), many of the Jewish people have been very
busy doing their utmost to clean their
homes and even their garments as thoroughly as
possible to ensure that there is no
leaven lurking there. While they do it,
they search their souls for any sin
that might be lurking there, too.
All of
this is in preparation for the seder
meal this Monday night to remember and thank God for the
miracle of their
supernatural redemption from
Egypt.
Two weeks
ago, as I entered my seventh decade (I turned 60), I
sensed an urgency to prepare my spirit, soul and
body as never before in order to be positioned
to enter into this new Bridal season of divine
encounters with the ability to do all that the Lord
would require.
To prepare my body, I have been
following a very good free online fitness program
(www.sparkpeople.com) that
is gradually getting me trim, healthier and giving me
even more energy and motivation to do my daily
tasks. The Lord has spoken in the past that
the Bride is going to be very busy in
these last days and I want my body to be
ready!
To
prepare my soul and my spirit, I have been
spending at least two hours in the middle of each
night just spending time in the Presence of the Lord
when there is little to distract me. It has
been a precious time of
communing, learning, meditating, praying and
waiting.
Today I
did an hour of fast walking on Mount Scopus, an
extension of the Mount of Olives. I had wonderful
views of the city of Jerusalem and the Temple
Mount and then enjoyed seeing the desert views
extending out toward the Jordan River.
I could
feel the exhilaration of walking steadily
upward with all my might, facing into the
wind, my spiritual eyes gazing upon the Lord and His
destiny for His Bride.
As I was
walking, I was praying about this update. I sensed
the Lord saying to entitle it "My Utmost For His
Highest" because that is what He is
calling His Bride to as we ascend in this season
into greater responsibilities
and higher realms in Him.
(Rom
12:1) I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the
mercies of God, that ye present your
bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable
unto God, which
is your
reasonable service.
(Rom
12:2) And be not conformed to this world: but
be ye transformed by the renewing of your
mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable,
and perfect, will of
God.
New Sermons
Posted
The
following sermons preached by Pastor
Shelley have been posted to his website
(www.revival.org) since
our last update.
They were
inspired by a vision that Bob Jones had
of a great white stallion breaking forth from a
corral. He said it represented a
war horse
anointing that the Lord wanted released
upon His Bride for this hour.
These
anointed messages fit right in with the theme of this
update. Read them and be challenged and
blessed!
Campmeeting in Alabama - July 15-
29
Pastor
Shelley's annual International Summer
Campmeeting will be held at his ministry's
beautiful country facilities in Smiths Station, Alabama
(close to Columbus, GA) July 15 - 29.
The Presence of the Lord is always so special at
these meetings, and there is a great
expectation building already for what the Lord
wants to do.
It is a
great honor to again have Paul Keith Davis as the
special guest speaker
for July 19-21. During those
three days there will be day meetings as well as
the normal night meetings as the Lord
leads.
Pastor Shelley has just recorded
a new video
greeting which is now on his home page
(www.revival.org) in which he shares
more detail about the upcoming
campmeeting.
For
more specific information, call the New Hope
Revival Ministries church office during office

In Closing
We
are praising the Lord for every miracle that He
has done through you to help us
financially! I am awed when I look back and see
how every seemingly impossible financial need
has been met!
So, please keep up the good
work! We need
your continued sowing to help
us with every basic expense that keeps us in
Jerusalem at our post of duty! We also treasure your
prayers!
Pastor Shelley is planning on
being in Jerusalem about May 15-27 and June 3-11
with a trip to Singapore between those two
times. He especially wants to be here
for Shavuot
(Pentecost) and the 40th anniversary of the reunification of
Jerusalem. Many prophetic leaders
believe that this is an extremely important anniversary
on God's calendar!
Ask the Lord what changes He would have
you make in your life in order to give your
utmost for His
highest!
(Rev
19:7) Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honor
to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and
his wife hath made herself
ready.
Blessings
from Jerusalem!
