| Stephen and I have started our own ministry, back in September. It is called "free life ministries". We started it because we were full time staff at our church, and then basically some doors were opened by the Lord to start travelling and ministering, and we really felt like the Lord was initiating a season for us of really embracing fulltime ministry in more than just our church. That's still our priority, but the Lord has been opening doors all over the globe, and so after prayer and talking about it, we felt that that was the season the Lord was moving us into. So, first thing we did besides get registered with the government as a non-profit organization is build a website!! HURRAY!!! And wow, what a project that turned out to be! But, our website has a lot of cool stuff on it... pics, videos, downloadable sermons that Stephen has preached, a calendar to book Stephen to come preach, ways to donate, links to our blog spots, etc... so, now we just need people to go check it out and get some traffic! That is where you come in! If you would, take a minute and run by our website and tell us what you think! It is still under cunstruction for some minor details, but the whole of it is pretty much up and working. Pass the word, and let people know about it! For those wondering, we formed the ministry to help fund (and provide write offs for those who were already donating) all our overseas missions, and the various ministry outreaches we are a part of here. The website covers all that. Check it out! www.freelifeministries.net Thanks! Let us know what you think! | | |
| Tonight me and stephen went on a date. :) Haven't been on one since my birthday inJuly. Sheesh... time flies. The boys stayed with one of our youth girls Morgan who is highly capable, adn she took them to our church halloween event. It was an open trunk gig... people decorate their cars and leave their trunks open, filled with candy for kids to come by adn get candy. Judah didn't understand that the point is to collect a small stash of candy to take home, and the first trunk he went to, he delicately pulled out a sucker and refused to put it in his bag because he wanted to eat it right away. He didn't want to pick up any more candy b/c he just wanted to eat his sucker. :) I guess Morgan helped him figure it all out because he came home with a good pound of candy or more. :) He rarely gets to eat candy, so our little candy stash here at the house is steadily growing... we don't really eat candy much so it is accumulating in my cupboards. Hmm... goodie bags or prizes at youth group maybe? Anyways... Stephen and I went to a little Thai restaurant, which was very yummy. Then we went to Target to pick up some small goodies for our Russian orphan boys we sponsor since Stephen is heading there tomorrow, he wanted to take them some presents. I wish I could see them. I need to go write them a letter. Gotta go... hope you enjoyed your Friday night!! | | |
| -Did you know that since the great depression, the economy has been in the position it is right now over 29 times, and each time it came out of it, it came out more prosperous than before! -Did you know that in the Great Depression, unemployment was at 80%. (only 20% of people had jobs). Today, the unemployment is at 6%! (94% have jobs.) That is QUITE a contrast. -Did you know the economy and wallstreet can change completely on a rumor? What drives the economy is how people spend and invest their money, and is driven by rumors and fear. If they are afraid we are in a crisis, they react accordingly, and our economy suffers. One little rumor that is totally untrue can totally detour our economy if it becomes widespread enough to affect how people spend and invest. So, how much stock are you putting in what the media is saying? Ever notice that they seem to just sow fear? Ever think that the media is actually just making the situation worse by how they are portraying and talking about it? Its not as bad as they say. It just isn't. -A major investor on Wallstreet said, "If people are smart, they will let their investments just ride out this economic hiccup, because you watch, after the New year, their investments will quadruple. If they are foolish and driven by fear, they will pull their money out right now while it is low, and suffer the loss." (The man who said this is not even a believer, but recognized the power and suffering that comes when we make our decision by fear.) -God has told numerous Prophets the following things: "FEAR NOT! Trust in Me. all will be well..." "Disengage from the earth's economy, and engage in heaven's economy and you will be safe from financial destruction." (i.e. follow the principles of finance in God's word, and put yourhope in his word, not in the earth's economy, and his word and promises will preserve you if your confidence is in Him and his faithfulness to his promises.) "It is clear that there is an apparent pattern of specific prophetic words that the Spirit has given in regards to the present economic crisis and His promise that it would be "a shaking just for a short moment in time" In December of 2005, God began to speak through me regarding a future economic crisis and showed me when it would be brought to an end. I feel that it is my duty to bring these prophecies to light for the purpose of giving you a "God perspective" of the situation, and so that you may also pray effectively and act accordingly. Before there was any crisis to speak of, the Spirit of God was already speaking of a time to come when the banking systems would fail, but even in the same breath giving us hope that the shaking would be temporary. I want to share my perspective with you using some of these words that God has quickened me to share publicly throughout the Nation and some relevant news articles which are also very specific about this moment that we have now entered together. It is clear that God was warning us ahead of time so that we would not panic and react in fear as these things began to happen, but that we might carry a message of hope and keep our confidence in His promise during the shaking. Despite the current situation and the comments of the prognosticators in the media, the Spirit of God has given us clear words that there will be a great future for all of us and the US economy will shortly be restored to the greatest place it has ever been. " read entire article by Kim Clement. So, I hope with this, you are also encouraged about the economy. Here's the key: we have to be listening to what the SPIRIT is saying, not what the MEDIA is saying. GOD knows what is going on, why it is happening the way it is, and what will happen ultimately. If we engage in His insights and understanding, we will respond appropriately to the situation at hand, but if we give ourselves to the fear, gossip and rumors that swirl around us, we will make foolish decisions based on fear and futile human understanding. Take the higher road adn search out GOd's wisdom. His ways always lead to peace, prosperity and success. Be encouraged!! | | |
| I have been hearing many things from the various Prophets that we are connected with about what the Lord is saying regarding this election adn our next president, so for those who haven't been hearing, I thought i'd share as it will likely encourage you. In the past, Benny Hinn had prophesied over Bush 10 years before he was in office, "one day you (Bush) will govern the American people, but the American people must pray." If you remember that election, it was certainly one of prayer! But, sure enough, bush has been in office 2 terms. **NOTE BEFORE YOU READ: The word of God says not to "treat prophesies with contempt." (I thess 5:20) which in the original text literally means not to take them lightly, or to consider them without your full attention. When the Lord takes time to speak his secrets to us, he wants us to treat them as pearls to be honored, not for us to act as pigs trampling them. So, as you read these prophesies, perhaps remember that encouragment. All the prophets I am quoting are very reputable and bear great fruit. Be encouraged as you read!** Ok, here are some things I've been hearing from Kim Clement, Phil Rich, and many of these things are being echoed by various other prophets. "For the next 3 terms, there will be a Godly man in office." -Kim Clement (not meaning that the 4th term will be wickedness, but that certainly for 3 terms there will be godliness). "No EVIL WILL BE IN THE WHITE HOUSE." (referring to the presidential position). -Spoken by the Lord to Phil Rich. "God says, "There will be a great surprise! You watch this election, for I will do something unusual, and there will be a great surprise! But fear not, for I have ordained who shall rule this nation, and you will have a president who shall rule in righteousness." -Spoken to Phil Rich. "And I will place a Christian believer as your next President, says the Spirit of the Living God." - Spoken by the Lord to Kim Clement "But the Spirit of the Lord said I have taken my prophet and prophets to the mid-term of this next president where sudden death shall cause people to say "has the Lord forsaken us?" But not so, for God said, even as this night you remember these words and you have allowed my prophet to prophesy the deep mysteries of the kingdom, for it shall be a massive and very strange happening, when they shall say "why are the democrats and the republicans suddenly joining forces with certain issues?" This shall be the working of the Lord. This shall be a presentation that shall shock and nullify those who have attempted to say "America will never stand united again." For God said you shall have two very severe enemies suddenly rise up against you and God said, you will not go to another war, for I will prevent it because I will take certain things that shall be manifested and they shall begin to withdraw because of the great authority that shall come because of the unity of this event that shall take place in the United States of America. For God says they shall say "we have no choice but to join hands, we have got to lay aside our differences." And the Spirit of the Lord said it shall be a marvelous thing. It shall confound your enemies. For God said I will cause the next four years to be a rulership under Me and under the Lord God Almighty and under the banner of the Trinity, the Father, Son and the Holy Spirit. Do not say "God has forsaken America." I have just told you through my prophet that there shall be so many changes and America shall be known as great and they shall be proud for they have attempted to help and unite other nations but now God said there is discord amongst this nation. I will cause you to be surprised, for God said you will look and you will say "look things have happened that we never dreamed would happen" therefore let Me rule, let Me reign. For the peace of God is about to rest upon this nation, yeah it shall be My will to speak goodness and goodness shall happen, says the Spirit of God!
For it is a stench unto Me, says the Lord, to hear men speak about the possibilities of an African American president with disdain. I've already told you that there shall be an African American president that shall come to rule but it shall come in My time. It shall come in a time of maturity, it shall come at a time that is perfect for this nation. Therefore God said, do not look back and say "oh we have to go back a few years." God said, you're not going back, for I have already got the inventions ready for you to have the energy that you need and so that you can be self-sufficient. It's going to happen so quickly and God said even now, even at this time, during the Thanksgiving of this year, I shall unfold many many things in this order. Therefore God said, look, prosperity is coming back to you. Do not look and say "Wall Street" and do not say "the stock market" and do not say "this or that." God said, I have looked at you and you are the apple of My eye, and because you are the apple of My eye I will come to you like I came to David and rescue you from the enemy that has tried to pull you down, says the Lord!

To watch a live broadcast of what Kim Clement is prophesying over our nation and this election, go here on Nov. 2nd, at 730 PST. http://www.christian.tv/channels/details/event/21/mediapage So, as you read these prophesies, they are meant to encourage you as they are not the words of men, but the words of the Lord. The media paints such a biased picture. If we listened solely to the media, you would think obama was already in office, and that we were all waiting in lines for a single loaf of bread based on the economy. Truly, the media is painting a fantasised, fearfilled picture of what they predict, but they don't have the insight of the Lord, so who will you listen to? Listen to theLord, as he only speaks truth. He is not man that he should lie. Be encouraged friends, God is the one who appoints leadership, just like the Word says in Romans 13:1. | | |
| A few months ago I was watching the news and they were talking about certain banks that were closing and the panic of the people in response to the thought of losing all their money, and people stood in line for hours to get their money out, and at some point the bank didn't have any more money stores to give the people back their cash. It was not a pretty picture. Chaos, panic, fear, near revolt. Anyways, as I watched, I felt hints of panic creep into my little heart and I said, "Oh, Father! What if that was to happen to us! How scary!" and then I stopped and I said, "Lord, I hear what people, the media, and even ministers are saying about the economy, but what are YOU saying. I want to hear what YOU are saying, so I don’t get all freaked out. What's going to happen with our economy? Would you please share your little secrets with me?" And then he sort of pulled me so I was removed and detached from what I was seeing on the news and I sensed him point to the picture before me and say, "That is the system of the World at work there. Panic. Loss. Fear. Struggle. Resources slipping through fingers. That's the system of the world. But you, my child, have chosen My system. You have learned my principles of finance." "ok, Lord, that makes sense," I said. "But what about if a bank was to close that we had all our money stored in? Would we not suffer loss too?" The Lord said so patiently, "Jenilee, is my character of a Provider altered by the condition of your economy?" "No, Lord." "Is my Ability to provide limited by your faltering economy?" "No Lord, not at all." "Does your earthly economy at all measure MY resources?" "No father. You are much greater than our little economy." "Then so is your provision. Just as I am not bound by your little human economy, neither will your resources be bound by it, so long as you continue to function in finance according to my system and not the world's. Whomever is your provider will be the extent of your resource." "Ok, Father, thank you, that makes me feel better. Now, would you show me what our economy is going to do? Will we be faced with another Great Depression?" Then he showed me our economy. I saw it dip down just a bit more, but not to the depth that it did in the great depression. Definitely not a recession, I did not see a total collapse of our economy, but I did see it dip enough to cause the hands of greed in our higher up areas in government and financial institutions to have to be loosened. I saw the new energy sources that Kim Clement has spoken of, spring up, and with them caused like a great wave of prosperity to come to our country. The wave had been restrained and limited by greedy people, greedy hands trying to keep the wealth for themselves by keeping this prosperity from being loosed through the new energy sources. But, as the economy dipped it was as though the pressure and the need for those new energies became so strong that they had to let go of their deceptive grip of greed and the wave was freed to burst forth. I see that the economic dipping was a strategic allowance of the Lord to expose and root out the wicked, not to destroy our nation. He will not allow it to destroy our nation; that is not the purpose for this season. As the wave of prosperity burst forth and came crashing down, it fell strategically. It wasn't messy. As it fell, it fell specifically into the hands of godly people. God's people were the ones who were chosen to prosper by this great financial increase. Of course, there were some "unsaved" people who obtained wealth by it, but even they seemed to have good intentions with the money. The money was divinely placed into the hands of believers, which brought an atmosphere of security to our country's future. As the finances were dispersed among the godly, our country blossomed, prospered and was blessed far beyond imagination. In fact, so much so that the time of financial drought before it was nearly completely forgotten! And of course, the finances being in the hands of the godly meant that the gospel was funded in an accelerated way. As I saw this picture play out before me I realize so truly what the Word means in application where it says "The wealth of the wicked is stored up for the righteous." The bottom line of what I saw was this: our economy would not go into recession. This financial frustration in our country, though it seems like an uncontrolled turn of events, is in fact a very strategic allowance of the Lord to bring down the greedy and ungodly who have withheld finances, to destroy financial villains, and to bring justice back into the financial circles of our nation, so that we can continue to bless Israel and other nations around the world. This may feel like a chaotic time, or scary time, but do NOT listen to what the media says when they try to manipulate us into being fearful. The media sees only what is right in front of them, we have seen the bigger picture: a loving God who cares about justice, about the poor, and those truly in need; A God who takes from the wicked so that the righteous might flourish; A God who lovingly protects us from the wicked intentions of the enemy. Bottom line is: fear not, be not afraid, for the Lord your God is with you. He will never leave you, nor forsake you. He will uphold you by his righteous right hand. He is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine. He is greater than our economy, and has a strategic plan in mind to set our nation free from its debts. It is time for his people to be debt free! I thanked the Lord for this insight, because it greatly encouraged me.

On his front page there are some headline prophecies about the economy that I found tonight. You can also browse other prophetic words and search for words about the economy on www.elijahlist.com .
