"But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing
power is from God and not from us." 2 Corinthians 4:7
"The Lord said, 'What have you done? Listen! Your brother's blood cries out
to me from the ground.'" Genesis 4:10
"They overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their
testimony; they did not love their lives so much as to shrink from death."
Revelation 12:11
Without a doubt, the majority of people, particularly in America, do not feel
listened to or heard. Most of us function as human-doings, instead of
human-beings. Fearful of rejection, abandonment, ridicule, confrontation and
criticism, people neglect that still, small Voice on the inside, in favor of the
external clamor of a demanding and narcissistic world. Most have never heard of
walking in the Spirit and the fullness of Covenant.
Such is the case when relating to the Lord. He has emphatically instructed
His Bride to come boldly to the Throne, for the purpose of obtaining wisdom,
understanding and mercy in times of need. Beyond that, in the same process,
there's a subsequent tasting and realization that the Lord is good. Our
strength, according to the Word, can solely be acquired through quietness and
confidence, by being still before Him, which incorporates listening and recognizing
that He is God. That emphatically speaks to me! A knowing, or revelatory
knowledge, can only come by way of stillness. Expectant listening is a part of
that marvelous process.
How often have you hung up on the Father? Some might be thinking, "Paul, what
on earth are you talking about?" Here's an excellent analogy. Imagine
calling a loved one and holding a one-sided conversation. "Hello Dad, let me tell
you what I need. Have a good day. Amen! Good-bye!"
That may put a smile on your face. It is kind of humorous. Yet, sadly, the
very moment a Child of the Most High concludes a prayer with "Amen," without
listening, that's precisely what he's doing...presenting a formulated
recitation, or a list of requests and needs, then telling the Father to take a hike.
"Amen!" I'm fairly positive that we're not attempting to be purposely rude
with this posture, because many in the Family simply don't know any better.
We've never been taught that Heaven has a discernible Voice. Neither do most
Christians realize that God desires nothing more than to fellowship the Beloved.
Who has taught us to listen? How many churches today, although some do
practice His Presence, say, "Prayer is a dialogue, a reasonable conversation
between man and God, which involves listening in anticipation of hearing? So,
let's talk to Him in our own respective fashion, the way we'd communicate with a
friend, after which there'll be a season of listening. When He's spoken,
journal what's been said in that Secret Place. Then compare notes." Oh, how
edifying and instructional that will be! Evangelical direction would consequently
become abundantly clear, while taking on a new meaning. Always remember,
communication is to relationships what blood is to the body!
True listening rarely occurs. We aren't challenged to do that, since again,
people are fearful of the noise of silence, what might be derived from an open
exchange with the Author of Life and Truth. Regardless, that's so needed in
this day and hour.
By age two or three, those so called "terrible" years from a parent's vantage
point, youngsters are testing their boundaries and environments, in an
effort to determine whether they are safe or not. If shut down by an inattentive
or unavailable mother and/or father, that little one learns to suppress and
repress, as a defensive means of surviving childhood. Such then becomes the
case as years pass. No one listens. So why should an effort be made to hear
others, including self? That little person on the inside, screaming for an
audience, is ignored. A shifting of attention and priorities takes place, where the
wounded embrace an external orientation, controlled by their senses, rather
than being led by means of those inner dreams, visions, desires, nudgings and
promptings.
Pain builds. A medication becomes necessary. For some, it's compulsive, then
addictive behaviors...sex, pornography, drug abuse, unhealthy relationships,
workaholism, perfectionism and food, to name a few. We head in a direction of
a quick fix, an adrenaline rush or dopamine infusion, not to mention the
psychopathology that usually follows. In this dissociative mode, a
desensitization takes place, an experiential loss of the soul, in order to please others
and merely make it from day to day. Relief is sought, via co-dependent
exchanges and interactions, projective, negative transference and transposing,
giving others what we personally want, being let down by an absence of
reciprocity.
Here's a rule of thumb I use in treating patients at the Clinic. "One seeks
in relationships what wasn't provided in childhood." The agony of not being
heard is astounding!
Contemplate your day. Are you unheard and uncomfortable around quietness?
When taking a walk or jog, are blaring earphones usually a part of your routine?
Is the television or radio regularly engaged within the house or automobile,
to block all silence, God's soft Voice, those internal thoughts and
memories? Most of us can answer in the affirmative to those questions.
Have you ever witnessed a deaf person receiving wholeness? It's a moving
moment. I've frequently gently inserted my fingers into the unhearing ears,
while using the Name of Jesus in a prayer of faith. The very second discernment
of sound is restored, invariably there'll be a look of shock on the recipient's
face, a covering of ears, as the very sound of rushing air, which many people
take for granted and rarely appreciate, is too much for the newly restored
internal components of an auditory system. Tears flow. After a few moments,
the receiver of Heaven's blessing is able to remove both hands and repeat
almost indiscernible whispers. For that individual, sound is a blessing.
God yearns for dialogue, more than you know. We were created in His likeness
and image for just that. As the Christian listens, there'll be an exchange of
thoughts, ideas, feelings, emotions and plans.
The Lover of Souls is the Believer's Role Model. He doesn't just use ears in
conversation, but hears with His whole being, heart included. So should we.
The words people speak touch the Father's heart and move Glory's hand. Should
the Body of Christ learn from that encounter with Dad? Yes! What is
experienced can be shared.
This planet is hungry for compassionate ears. People will line up at doors
for service and attention, both of which are certainly deserved. You and I have
been placed here for that purpose. So, let's remove all obstacles preventing
us from hearing. In so doing, the sound of silence will no longer be
oppressive, but invigorating, revelational and rewarding!
The Holy Spirit is whispering to hearts right now. Remove those earplugs, and
hear what He's saying to the Church!
"Listen, Precious Child! Discern that stirring within. The vision's appointed
time is just around the corner. Birthing remains nigh. I've been with you
during those occasions of question and doubt, when no one else would listen or
understand. Know this! Very few comprehend through the Father's ears, since
many are fearful of the very truth that will set them free. For within that
freedom lies deliverance for multitudes. The enemy knows this and would do all
in his lying nature to convince Christians of spiritual impotency. When did
the Sent One appear weakest? When He was on the cross and in that tomb.
Nevertheless, even the rocks had to move aside when He arose and exited death's
door. In your weakness is His strength made perfect, even to the point of
materialization. Come boldly to the Throne, where Goodness and Mercy, Heaven's
Twins, await your arrival. Never will there be condemnation when We get
together. Instead, the Creator of all that is will build up His Bride, via
revelation knowledge, quickened, made-alive words, promises of Covenant, empowerment
to fulfill the Great Commission. Let Me make this point abundantly clear,
since miscomprehension will further keep you from destiny and being transformed
into a Living Epistle, known and read of all men. What are people to discern
in observing your walk? The answer is swift and clear...yoke destroying,
burden removing Power and Dominion, full sufficiency in everything pertaining to
life and godliness. Let's return to the process. As fellowship is ongoing,
there'll be a hearing of Heaven's Voice. Inherent in this revelatory unfolding
resides a mandate, or promise. Remember, no word from your God is void of the
inherent ability to bring itself to pass. So, We'll talk; you'll hear and
obey, after which there'll be a manifestation. Compassion's momentum will
exponentially gain such intensity that the very dead will not be able to resist the
Resurrected Christ. Before His return for the Bride, the Savior must be
revealed, once more, as the Word made flesh, before many and new generations of
hungering and thirsting men, women and children. The most potent darkness and
impossible situations will bend their knees to the King of Kings! Bowels of
compassion can always be trusted, as I Am reestablishing a new way of
listening, one that moves the hearer's heart to perform those greater works. Just as
all of this world's libraries couldn't contain the plentiful works of the
Master, neither will pen and paper be able to keep up with the victories and
miraculous in your walk. Rejoice! You're contagious with the Glory!"

The Holy Spirit spoke to me, years ago, in an Orange County mausoleum, of all
places, prior to that Trinity Broadcasting Network (TBN) Gold Manifestation,
witnessed by millions. This is what He had to say: "Southern California has
been deemed 'Ground Zero' for this Ministry. Your journey will be
far-reaching, to the far corners of the earth. However, focus must remain on this
region...Greater Los Angeles. I have richly anointed and called you to take My
Word and Heaven's miraculous to where Glory's Light is dim and the Father's
Voice is seemingly silent."
Additionally, the Lord has entrusted this work with the hearts of many
precious souls, from prisoners to the extremely well known in the arts. Heaven
possesses unbelievable Supernatural plans for each. We must be faithful to that
call, deliver those messages, and become dutiful servants.
Journey into the Archives Section of this site, and discover a myriad of
prophetic offerings, concerning key people who are to be used by the Father in
these great days of Outpouring. Some are mentioned by name. Others are not.
Within days and hours of those revelatory pronouncements, the unveiled was
literally fulfilled, even in jail cells, in and through the most internationally
gifted and known people.
The Church is living in a Season of Outpouring. She must ready Herself to
move with Glory's shifting Breeze, a stirring, exponentially gaining momentum
and potency from the Mercy Seat. A quick work is being accomplished for the
Kingdom!
Please unite your prayers with ours, in this most recent shift. Together, we
will plunder hell and populate Heaven. Never forget, when your sole purpose
in life is practicing His Presence, all else will be taken care of!
God often grants a destiny dream that natural man immediately rejects. Only
spirit can comprehend Spirit. Nevertheless, in this downloading process, a
gift of faith arises, for the express purpose of underscoring, validating,
gestating and birthing the previously unthinkable and impossible. We are there
now. Let's move into that newness with all vigor!
I want to sincerely and gratefully thank those who have sown precious seed
into this Ministry of the Miraculous. Our outreach is fertile ground. You have
approached the Lord with a gift. Your reward will be equal to mine. In plain
terms, partnership is a committed process of locking arms. Prayers and
financial sacrifices have never gone unnoticed in God's Kingdom. Both allow me to
take the Father's Word, signs and wonders to hurting people, those whose lives
and eternal destinies depend upon this synergy. Without question, scores are
on their way to Heaven, have been healed, thereby avoiding an early grave,
because of Him and you. Thanks for that! Together, in total obedience, let's
conduit Glory's Electricity, a creative presentation of God's love, to the
four corners of this world. No gift is too small or big. He'll anoint every sown
seed. In the meantime, expect Heaven to invade your life with Love Letters
and a rich display of Covenant!
For those called to sow:
