Have you been asking for a shift and don't know how to do it?

Over the course of the past few days I saw a couple of pictures I would like to share.

1. I saw a real estate agent coming and helping prepare to shift a person. The person had lots of rubbish to deal with that needed to be put in black rubbish bags and taken out. I kept coming along and checking on the progress. Initially the real estate agent had a suit and tie on but as he put his hand in to help the person get ready for the shift, he took more and more clothes off as he was mucking in and helping doing the work. Eventually all the rubbish had been cleared up and taken out and the real estate agent turned round to the person on the couch and gave him some money.

2. I saw a bunch of people all standing together in the water, but the water wasn't moving, the people weren't moving and like any pool of water if you stand in the pool for a long time without movement you get cold. I saw myself getting out of the pool and moving on because if I stayed there I would go cold and numb.

"Go and make disciples of all nations"
Matt 28:19

My interpretation of the first picture is that I believe there are people who have been asking the Lord how to step into what He has called them to, but they haven't known how to do it, or perhaps its been too overwhelming in where to start, but I believe the Lord is releasing the angelic realm to help take you from one place to another. You won't be alone in it, he will send you the help you need in order to shift you to where you are to be. As the shift takes place you will find provision given to you in ways you didn't expect. It may take some time, but don't be discouraged, he is there with you, alongside helping you to keep going.

The second picture: I believe in the body of Christ we have gathered as a people in the Holy Spirit which has been great and it has grown us, but if you continue to camp around in the meetings and don't move with what you have, you love and your fire will grow cold. It's important to 'go' out with what you have, not stay and stagnate in gatherings, the 'water' needs to be moving and flowing in order for us not to go cold. So I encourage you not to 'camp' around what you have but move out, stir up the gifts within you and go with courage and boldness into the things God has called you to.

When we step in by faith to the things God has called us to, that is where the joy everlasting lies, so I encourage you today, if you haven't known how to step into the next step, just ask the Lord to send his ministering angels to help you. Just one step, and then the next step will follow. We don't need to know all the answers to all the questions we have before we step out. Often the first step is the hardest but as we step out, the next one opens up. Jim and I have many testimonies as we have stepped out in faith, as I am sure you too have, not knowing all the answers but as we have stepped out ,the answers and the provision has come.

2 Timothy 1:6-7 "For this reason I remind you to fan into flame the gift of God, which is in your through the laying on my hands. For the Spirit God gave us does not make us timid, but give us power, love and self-discipline."

And surely I am with you always, to the
very end of the age. Matt 28:20

Obedience and Commitment are big things in Gods Kingdom

Reading in Acts 7 this morning the story through Stephen of Abraham being told by God to " Leave your country and your people and go the the land I will show you" So he left the land of the Chaldeans and settled in Haran. After the death of his father, God sent him to this land where you are now living. He gave him no inheritance here, not even a foot of ground. But God promised him that he and his descendants after him would possess the land, even though at that time Abraham had no child." As I reflected on this and the journey of Abraham stepping out in faith into a land that he received no inheritance in but a promise of what was to come for his descendants of which we live in the fruit of that, I thought of todays generations in which often is only doing things that we want to do or that will benefit us personally as we live for 'today' not worrying about tomorrow. A sense of if it feels good then do it, if it doesn't then we will move on - perhap...

Don't worry, you wont miss the bus.

Last night I had this dream and there were a bunch of people at my house and we all decided to go somewhere by bus. Because we had to lock up the house, Jim and I missed the bus, while the others managed to make it. I found myself getting a little frustrated with Jim as he seemed to be so slow in locking everything up. Jim & I got there just in time to see their bus drive away. We were left standing in the rain. But then the thinking came, its alright, we will just catch the next bus. Some of us may feel at times like we have missed our opportunity. That we have missed what The Lord would have us do, and in that we can get a little frustrated by people around us and even perhaps blame people for where things are at, at least I know I do at times. :) But I believe The Lord wants to encourage people today, including myself, that you don't need to worry, just rest and be at peace and you will soon get another opportunity. Like wa...

A Powerful Testimony of Gods Healing Power

A testimony has just come in that is so exciting that we have been given permission to share and tell. Dawn Tilbury a lady crippled by pain of Fibromylagia & Osteoarthristis in the spine and for the past seven years has been in agony, bedridden for four months this year and the possibility of not being able to walk is testifying after prayer and the power of God being released, to complete healing since then. That was a nearly a month ago that prayer was given and she has been pain free since. She is now cleaning her shower, mopping her floors, doing things she couldn't do. Has complete new perspective on life. So exciting!!! THANKYOU JESUS - ALL GLORY TO YOU!

The baby's been handed over

Several weeks ago the Lord shifted us out of the 'home office' into the 'market place' and in the process a spiritual shift happened - one of letting the 'baby' go, a releasing and handing over the batten, so to speak to others. In this process the nests that WE ALL have been in have been stirred up, shaken about, and pushed out, to fly in ways that perhaps we were too afraid to do previously. The amazing thing with God is that He knows the timing of all of this and where each one of us is at and what we can handle. Yes there has been a fluttering of wings in panic. Yes, we have had a few weeks of challenge as authority and structures get changed and challenged, frustrations coming to the fore, but love helps us overcome, love helps us to forgive, love helps us to see the good and not the dirt, love helps us remember our own failings and yet forgiveness and grace that the Lord has for me, that I can give to others, remembering it's the glory of G...

Regret.....Pass on what you have.

This morning I had a dream of a woman who was a warrior, who was well used to going into battles and one day someone gave her a jewel case with some ancient jewels in it, a huge ruby that was set in an intricate gold setting, and other jewels that were beautiful that were being passed down to her and that had originally come from someone before her. She put them away in a safe place and went out into battle again for it only to be her last battle. In looking back her regret was that she never told anyone where the jewels were before she went out to battle that she was given and so they were going to be lost and no longer being passed on, hidden forever in history, the beauty of what she had been given lost and of no value. I believe there is a word in this dream that I saw this morning. Many of us have fought many battles in the spiritual and natural realm and in that we have received jewels from the Lord through the things we have learnt in those battles and the training ...

Our latest update, next steps and prayer needs

Dear friends, supporters and prayer partners of Glory Release Ministries, & of Jim, Kate & I. Its hard to believe its over a month since our return from Africa. Time flies when you are having fun. Some things are developing that we would appreciate your prayer on. Earlier in the year we had the conference "Step Up & Step In" as we believed the Lord was saying to step out by faith into those things that you believe for so we did, not only for ourselves and what we believe but also hopefully to encourage the body to do the same in their/your own worlds. And then the Lord challenged us again with Africa and stepping up to a whole another level and the things we saw and all that God did, blew us away. It's been a time of growing this past year, from one level into another level. And that leads us to now and what we believe him for now. Some more detail to share within that bigger vision of : Evangelistic Gathering...
