From the desk of Steve Shultz:
This is an excellent article about this being a time of renewal and offers fresh revelation for this month of February.
Things are starting to steamroll so to speak this year...and we are really in exciting times in the Body of Christ no matter what we see happening on the earth around us.
Here's an excerpt from Holly Watson:
I believe the Father is calling Jeremiah Prophets to the front lines at this hour to awaken the Church to her true identity. A fearless company of Jeremiah prophets is being empowered to help rebuild the structures of a broken down Church and to help establish healthy Church communities/families in this new era.
Where the Word of the Lord is released and received through the mouth of a Jeremiah prophet, houses of worship will experience a move of the Spirit, ushering in healing, times of refreshing and renewal. Many will be confirmed in their office as a remnant of end-time Jeremiah prophets and begin to operate out of the fullness of who God created them to be.

"A Time of Renewal! This Month Everything Changes!"

The Boiling Pot & the Olive Branch
While I was praying with the Lord recently, I drifted off into a twilight sleep and suddenly went into a vision where I saw a boiling pot. The last time I had the type of vision that startled me awake was when the branch of an almond tree hit me in the eye while I was in this same type of prayer posture.
When God first called Jeremiah as a prophet He trained him to see and to hear His voice through visual aids. Jeremiah's first vision was that of an almond tree. The almond tree is one of the first trees to blossom in early spring and indicates the nearness of the fulfillment of God's Word. Because of the events surrounding the blossoming of an almond tree, this tree becomes a symbolic picture of being ready and watching as all other events unfold (Jeremiah 1:11-12).
"When we allow the process to unfold the way God intended it to unfold, we will truly come forth as vessels of pure gold!" |
The second vision Jeremiah had as the Lord was training him for service was that of a boiling pot. The boiling pot represented the calamity that would come upon the people of Judah for forsaking God through disobedience and acts of idolatry. Jeremiah was to deliver the unpopular message of repentance to the people of Judah. However, God promised He would protect Jeremiah through the persecution Jeremiah would endure, because of his obedience to deliver a message of warning and exhortation (Jeremiah 1:8,17-19). The heart of the Father through the prophet Jeremiah was a call of covenant and repentance. The burden of the Lord that Jeremiah carried was for Jerusalem to remember her first love and to turn from her compromised ways.
"Moreover the word of the Lord came to me, saying, 'Jeremiah, what do you see?' And I said, 'I see a branch of an almond tree.' Then the Lord said to me, 'You have seen well, for I am ready to perform My word.' And the word of the Lord came to me the second time, saying, 'What do you see?' And I said, 'I see a boiling pot, and it is facing away from the north.'" (Jeremiah 1:11-13)
"Go and cry in the hearing of Jerusalem, saying, 'Thus says the Lord: "I remember you, the kindness of your youth, the love of your betrothal, when you went after Me in the wilderness, in a land not sown."'" (Jeremiah 2:2)
The Word, Breath & Speech of God
The 17th letter in the Hebrew alphabet, having the numerical value of the number 80 (we see this same number in the Hebrew year 5780/2020), is the letter pey. The letter pey is a pictograph of a mouth and means "word, breath, speech, or vocalization."
When God first anointed Jeremiah as a prophet, He stretched forth His hand and touched Jeremiah's mouth giving him the power to shift kingdoms and nations with his words. Jeremiah was anointed to govern the land by releasing the heart of the Father through his ministry mandate of preaching against sin, overthrowing the strongholds of the enemy, and restoring the Church back to perfect order. Jeremiah's mission was not only to enforce God's Word through the prophetic utterance and obedience, but to release the dynamic and creative Word of the Lord as a builder and planter ushering in hope, restoration and renewal (Jeremiah 1:9).
Jeremiah's voice was a gateway into the heart of the Father for sparking reformation. Jeremiah exercised his shamar (which means "to preserve, protect, save life") anointing to overthrow the thrones of adultery and to stimulate the healing process through releasing the heart of the Father to His people (Jeremiah 1:14; 25:5-7). Jeremiah was not only a prophet at heart, but he carried... (continue reading)
