05.01.03 Norman Miller message Jesus sets free, Jesus is Truth
BarbaraMiller – While we were in praise and worship what I was seeing was like a ride at a showground and there were spokes coming out from the centre and then a seat on each of the ends of the spokes. Some of the young ones here will know what that is called, and the seats were spinning round and then the whole thing was spinning round and it reminded me last week toward the end of my message that I saw a roller-coaster ride for our church this year, and this is a fairly similar type of vision.
I believe the Lord has a word for us for the New Year ‘For I would say’, says the Lord,’ Yes I am taking you on a ride this year. It is a ride that will spin you out. It is a ride where you feel at times that you are out of control but says the Lord I will be in control. I will be your safety. Do not fear for I have much for you. At times the enormity of it will spin you out, at times you will feel that you are going so fast that you have to hang on tight. It will be an exhilarating ride’ says the Lord ‘at times it will be a scary ride but do not fear. The Lord says I am directing it. I am the Master of the ride; I am the Master of your journey. I am the Master of the New Year that I bring before you, so do not fear even though there are times you feel that you will have to hang on tight, even though there will be times that you will feel out of control, but I am in control says the Lord, you do not have to be in control, you need to trust Me, but once you get on this ride with Me this year says the Lord you won’t be able to get off until I decide when the ride is finished. So be prepared. Get ready for what I will do for I will demand much of you this year says the Lord. I will require much; I will stretch you to the limit but I will bring you through. I will bring you through and it will be exciting and others will watch you spinning around up there and think “Wow, that looks like a great ride. I wonder if I am game to get on and join” but watch what I will do says the Lord because you will be right in the middle of it.’ Thank you, Lord.
Pam Wordham – While we were worshipping the Lord showed me –From heaven He reached down to lift us up to His presence, but when He reached His hand down nobody was willing to get hold of it, so He put a ladder from the earth to Him, it was a gorgeous gold ladder, and one or two dared to get on it and start, in their own strength, to climb up, but once they released themselves into God’s hand, instantly they were up in Heaven, in heavenly places, and what I saw there was indescribable, the gifts, the goodness it was the gifts and the goodness of God that was waiting for us there, it was iridescent, it was sparkling, it was the most unusual shapes, I can’t describe it because it was just beyond my imagination, but there they are waiting for us.
And as we let go of the ladder to climb up in our own strength, the angels took us straight up, and then I noticed more and more people were coming on the ladder, and as we were going up this ladder I suddenly realized that there were hordes of people at the bottom, it was like a sea of faces, there must have been thousands, even a million people there, watching and getting excited at what they could see because they were then wanting to come up the ladder as well, but they didn’t know how to get onto it because they hadn’t got saved yet, because the first step to getting on to that ladder is salvation, and the second step on that ladder is worship. So what God was showing me, was as we worship Him, and let go of ourselves and let Him do what He wants to do, and go the way He wants us to go we will finish up in glory, in glorious places with His giftings, with His goodness, and with all things provided, things we have not even conceived yet, things we have not even thought about, they are waiting in heaven to be given to us. It is up to us to let go and let God.
KimHubner –As I was worshipping, God said to me the words “paths, My paths” and as I prayed and asked God to show more, He started to show me a winding path and I said but God Your path is not winding, your path is straight and narrow and then I saw the path suddenly touch and go across the straight and narrow path and then it would wind backwards and forwards across it, and as the time went on I saw that the crossing became less and then it started to go along with the straight and narrow path. God wants us, instead of going this winding path, He wants us to come to His straight and narrow path and to follow it, not to cross across it and then to come back and touch on it from time to time, but He wants us to stay on the straight and narrow path and to stay and walk with Him, walk hand in hand with Him, ask Him the way to go, ask Him instead of forgetting about asking Him and going off the path again. He wants us to talk to Him, He wants us to walk with Him on the straight path, not to go on the winding path and touch the straight path every now and again. He wants us on that straight and narrow path walking with Him.
Suzanne Tunstall – While we were in worship what I saw was God beckoning us and saying come, let Me envelope you with My love and as we sat at His feet He said this is what I want, leave the busyness behind and come and sit at My feet for My infilling. As we worshipped more at His feet and we got more and more into prayer and focusing totally on Him, what I could see was unlimited gold flowing out from the Lord into us and flowing out from us like the rays of the sun to all with a need, each need was met by that ray, but we had to be at His feet to be totally at One with Him and to allow Him to flow out to that need that He shows us because it is His leading and we have to be so discerning and ask Him for more and more wisdom and discernment this year because He says surely you will need it but I will direct you if you stay totally focused on Me.
(After message)
Norman Miller – Come My daughter, come My son, My arms are wide open, I am here for you (x 2) Will you make yourself available this year more and more to the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords. Don’t get stuck in a rut, there has to be a pattern of change, God is bringing a pattern that is refreshing changes, the patterns of God and the weavings of God they are different, He creates, He renews, He restores, He gives, He delivers, He sets free.
New heights, new strategies, new directions, a new zeal, new enthusiasm, new understanding, new revelation, new covenant, new day, new things, new things for you, new ministries, open and effective doors opening up for you, a new pattern, new changes, God is weaving, God is threading, new positional changes for you. Thank you, Lord.
Norman Miller (song) There’s a call on this city, there’s a call on the people, speak the Truth, speak about the Truth, the call is today, the work of God’s Spirit is the work of God’s Spirit. Cairns will be known truthfully known as the city, as the city of truth. It will know Truth, it will know Who is the Truth, I am looking forward to the day, every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, Jesus Christ is Lord, every eye will see, every ear will hear, every eye will see, every ear will hear, they will know the truth, for the truth will set you free, the truth will set you free (x 4).
PamWordham – While Pastor Norman was singing and praying and talking, The Lord continued the vision He gave me earlier on, the pictures, and the people were going up the ladder, they started off dressed in white and then the clothing turned into silver as they started throwing – not initially though, sorry – they were going up and there were a lot of us going up, and the people I heard – you know when you see fireworks everyone goes ‘aaaaah’ at the beauty of it, well the multitudes who were at the bottom of the ladder looking were just going ‘Wow look at that, wow I want what I am seeing, Oh wow, how do I get it?’ and they were watching God working in our lives, and then it changed and the people were going up and throwing these beautiful white rose petals out, whoever caught them was getting saved and coming on the ladder, and so Truth is white, pure, white, in God there is white and there is black, black are the lies, and as we were throwing white Truth petals out to the people they were getting saved and coming in and they are so hungry. I got that tremendous sense that the whole area, there were hundreds of thousands, if not a million people watching, it was a huge sea of faces and if you remember in psalms it says – I think it’s psalms or it could be Isaiah – that the seas are converted unto us, and that’s what it looked like, a sea of faces being converted to the Kingdom.
Australia Day Word 26.1.03
Barbara Miller – I really believe the Lord wants to lead us into a deeper level of intimacy with Him. It is also Australia Day and He wants to move this whole nation, not just to a deeper level of intimacy with Him but also even to turn away from its present attitude and turn toward Him.
The Lord showed me a red desert and there was a cart on it but the horses were drawing the cart backwards and I believe that the Lord is saying this nation is going backwards. Now that is a very serious word. We really need to pray that our nation be turned round and go in the right direction, godly direction. I was getting the words “spiritual bankruptcy” and “spiritual poverty” at the heart of the nation and even a rottenness at the heart of our nation, and then the Lord showed me like a forest of trees and the tops of the trees were chopped off and I felt the Lord was saying that whatever raises its head in a lofty way against Him that He will chop that off. So that is quite a serious word for our nation we really need to pray that the Lord would turn it around so that even the trees bow to Him.
Dear Heavenly Father I thank You for that word and Lord I pray that you would have mercy upon our nation. Lord I pray that you would turn us around, turn us from following after evil things O Lord and turn us toward you as a nation we pray. Lord I want to stand in the gap and repent for our nation this morning. I am sure there are others here this morning that want to stand in the gap too Lord and repent for our nation. Lord we ask that our nation return to You. We ask that our nation would bow the knee to You and Lord we pray that we would not raise up other things, Lord, against You and that we would not worship other things, lofty ideas or whatever Lord, but we would worship You.
Lord we pray that if it would be possible, Lord, that you would stay your hand against this nation. We pray Lord that this nation would turn around and turn towards you before it is too late. Lord You said in Isaiah “can a nation be born-again in a day? Lord, we know it can, we have seen on the Transformation Videos where you have turned around far more difficult situations that what we have in this nation of Australia and you have turned them round, Lord, and brought revival to that nation. And Lord we pray that you would do that in this nation of Australia, that you would turn us around. Lord I pray that it would not be too late, Lord, that there would be a spirit of repentance to sweep the nation and turn this nation around back to you Lord before it is too late and You have to execute your judgment against this nation. Lord we pray for mercy for this nation. Lord we pray that tears of your intercessors would be shed more and more for this nation that you would turn this nation around. Thank you, Lord.
For I believe the Lord would say “this day I have set My heart upon this nation even to topple governments, even to topple those things that raise their ugly heads against Me. I have set My heart to bring down these things that oppose Me in this nation, says the Lord. I have set My heart to do it. If there are enough people crying out to Me for this nation then I will hear that cry, but there are not enough cries of My people for this for this nation says the Lord. I am searching for those who would stand in the gap. I am searching, I am searching, says the Lord, for those who would stand in the gap for this nation for it is an abomination to Me. It is an abomination says the Lord. I can hardly bear to look at it so turn around, turn around before it is too late says the Lord, for My hand of judgment will sweep across this nation. Turn to Me as a nation says the Lord. You My people must take the responsibility, take it says the Lord, I have given it to you. My word says it, ‘if My people will humble themselves and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways then I will hear from heaven and I will heal the land’. Turn from your wicked ways My church in this nation of Australia, turn from your wicked ways and the nation will turn around. I will turn this whole nation around if you, My people, will only turn around. I have spoken says the Lord and I will perform it.” Thank you, Lord.
Norman Miller – That voice that called forth Lazarus truly echoes in the Great South Land of the Holy Spirit. Will you respond to that voice and will you walk as the One who spoke, will you walk in the obedience and call of God. Will you demonstrate My signs, My wonders, My miracles? Will you demonstrate that power, that anointing that was on Me? And I have released it to the church, I have released it to My churches in this nation and nations, and I am saying to you this day – Call forth your unsaved sons and daughters into My Kingdom, call forth this city to a Spirit of humility and repentance, call forth My church in this city and this land to pray. Call forth, call forth this nation that it truly will know My ways, because I am truly the Great, I Am, and even as I have called forth ‘Lazarus, I am calling My church to rise again. – “Lazarus, Lazarus Come Forth! Australia, Australia Come Forth into Your redemptive plans and purposes that I have for this nation. Come Forth, Church of Australia – Come forth, come forth –Church of Australia, Come forth (x 21).
16.03.03
Norman Miller – (Song) There’s an opening, there’s an opening of an alabaster jar it’s very costly this fragrance of oil, this sweet fragrance of oil. There’s an opening to the women, the women in this city, an opening to the women in this nation, this fragrance of oil is placed in your hands, receive it, receive it in the name of the lord. This woman she began to pour over His hair as He sat at the table. Australia as a nation, it’s in this gate, the Bethany Gate, The Bethany Gate is the sweet fragrance of God, Oh the anointing, alabaster jar is being released. Pour it upon the Lord, the alabaster jar it’s been opened here in this place, the alabaster jar it’s been opened in this nation. Oh, yes Lord, Yes Lord, Yes Lord. The fragrant oil pour it upon your Master. (All ladies present had bottles of oil to pour on Jesus).
13.04.03
Pam Wordham – While Ps. Norman was singing just now about the fire around Australia, I saw a large map of Australia with flames all around it. I suddenly realised they were so high compared to the size of Australia and I said, Lord how high do they go? And he took me way up above the clouds and there they were up there, and the angels were there as well. And then while I was still up there in space, these planes and missiles and things were coming against Australia, but they didn’t come through the wall of fire. They just vanished. They only came up to the wall, and I was on this side, and they just didn’t come through. And I believe the Lord wants us to continue to enforce that wall of fire around Australia for a good time to come to protect Australia.
3.7.03
Barbara Miller – What I saw during praise and worship this morning was like a star and then not like a star. It had four points to it and they were long and thin and then there was a small center and there was like gold and blue and purple and even a bit of red there, and I was looking at it and I was thinking that it sort of looks like the reflection of a diamond or what is it really, but as I just waited on the Lord with it, it just made me think of the star near Bethlehem when Jesus was born but it was a sign of a coming visitation of the Lord – I just got the impression that the star is over Cairns at the moment & heralding a visitation of the Lord, so I’m excited about that praise the Lord, and the Lord gave me this scripture from Isaiah 60 ‘Arise shine for your light has come & the glory of the Lord rises upon you, see darkness covers the earth and thick darkness is over the peoples but the Lord rises upon you and His glory appears over you, nations will come to your light and Kings to the brightness of your dawn. (vs 1-3).
We have had prophecies in the past from Apostle Leon Walters when he was here about 18 months ago, said that Cairns was going to be written about that people were going to travel from the north, the south, the east and the west to come here and see what God is doing in this place, and even before that when we were praying in Andrejec’s Arcade on a Friday night a couple of years ago, the Lord showed me that Cairns is going to be like that city with a light on its hill and the nations will be drawn to it. I’m excited about what God’s going to do and I believe it’s coming soon that visitation of the Lord, so we need to get ready for it – it’s an awesome thing. Praise the Lord.
11.07.03 (Friday/House-church Meeting)
Cheryl Wieden – As Gordon & Dennis were praying for the nation of Australia, I saw the map of Australia & Jesus was looking over it & was weeping. His teardrops were golden & as they hit the land, the spot that was hit was like a golden explosion. It was like fire, but also like fluid raining down on the land. These were places that His glory was being poured out & people were burning with the fire of God. It was like when it rains the little trickles spread out & then the whole land was covered with it. It had the consistency like mercury, but it was golden. Had a very strong sense of the Father’s heart for this nation & His Son was weeping over it. Sensed also that He is desperate for His people to rise up in intercession to pray & weep those tears for Him, “Rise up My people, the hour is late! Time to weep for the lost ones, will you pay the price? Who will do my will? Who will go & bring them in? Open your mouths & I will fill & pour forth the weeping & wailing. Desperation! Get desperate, lives depend on it. Those called & chosen are also equipped to accomplish the work that has to be done.
20.7.03 Take a Stand and Make a Difference Conference we hosted 17-19 July 2003 Cairns
Linda Roeder USA –We charge this couple in the Holy Ghost and we address you with honour Apostle Norman, Prophetess Barbara, And the Lord says son and daughter surly you have served Me well, and you have stood in a place of faithfulness when many others would have cut and run, but the Lord says I am releasing shackles and I am cutting off the bands that have held you back from your true purpose and your true destiny, for you have been running as hard as you could, you pressed as fast as you could, but the Lord says you have felt like a shackle around the ankle but God says it was My Spirit restraining you, but I am now releasing in this day a new power, a new anointing to a new level, a new depth, and God says even in the area of the church you have pastured my sheep and you have raised them up, but God says I am causing even in this time a shifting to the saints of one responsibility after another, God says this is a season of delegation and delegation and delegation, it’s a season of training and equipping.
And the Lord says I have brought about you a core of faithful people and the training that you offer is bringing in more faithful people and the Lord says even at times as I send you out more and more and more, when this place is without your physical presence they are going to feel the anointing, the covering, the protection; but God says there is going to be five-fold ministry in this house it is even a time to raise up and identify the pastors, even the apostles, even the prophets, even the teachers and the evangelists, and God says have training schools, and bring them forth in great measure with great power and God says as you do the training, you are going to see ones rise to the top that you never expected to be there, so God says do not appoint a position here or a position there, and do not even speak out loud the thing I show you but in the time of training, in the season of preparation, I am going to begin to show you this one and that one, and as due time, with due process, you are going to begin to delegate in full measure, and when you delegate it is going to be a full release of responsibility, and the Lord says begin to share your heart with the people, and even though you won’t stand every day in the role of the Pastor in this physical place, but the Lord says begin to share your heart, so that when you are away, they minister out of the heart I have given you. For God says I release you from some of the daily responsibilities and the tasks that you have been willing to bear, you will bear them for a while yet, for a season yet, but there is going to be a season when you can release much of the daily operation, and it not that you are really leaving this place, your heart is going to be here, you are going to oversee this Ministry into its destiny, but the Lord says I want you free to come and free to go with little warning, so the Lord says it is time to begin even more training, you have trained, but now train to a new measure, and train with the eye to see of the delegation of the responsibility says the Lord.
And even in the marriage God says you have allowed Me to do a deep work, you have allowed Me to do a quick work, and you two have a commitment that is for a lifetime, and the Lord says I have honoured you because of that commitment, but it has taken grace and it has taken mercy, and I have poured out Grace and Mercy in abundance in the last two years especially, and God says you have co-operated with My Grace and now receive My Joy, the Lord says I am uniting the two of you closer than ever, I am bringing a season of Joy upon you, even as you feel the burden lifting, even as you do the training, even as you delegate, God says as you delegate, as you delegate, the Joy will rise up within you, and it is going to be something that is going to be brand new to you, God says a feeling of release, you truly will soar with Me says the Lord.
David Roeder, USA – I hear the Lord saying I have given you the eye of an eagle, and He said you see from a high place, and He said I have given you even the prophetic words over this city and over this nation, and the Lord said you have been a faithful man, you spoke what I have given you, and He said now I am going to release a fresh oil anointing in your spirit, and He said I am stirring deep, the deep is calling unto deep, and He said I am causing you to begin to see things from a new perspective, He said as you do I am going to launch you, I really hear the Lord saying that in the next season He said there is going to be a lot more invitations of travel and you are going to pick and choose, but son you are going to have to know when to go and when to stay,
I really sense that the travel invitations are going to come with the tickets, and the Lord is saying you are going to know that there are times you are going to go and there are times when you are going to say no, and He said it is not going to be a financial thing, He said I am going to send you some places and it is going to be a break-even”, and I am going to send some other places and you are going to say Lord that just does not make sense , and He says I am going to make the sense, and He said I am going to cause to be an influence, and He said I am going to give you prophetic words over the nations where I send you, and He said I am going to cause you to soar above and really begin to see those things from a high, lofty perspective, and He said you are going to speak into the hearts of the nation, you are going to speak into the hearts of the city, and He said you are going to release a prophetic declaration in those places, and He said you will see those things come to pass, you will read about them in the headlines, He said you will read about them in the newspapers, days and weeks later, He said for surely I am working in a season says the Lord.
And daughter I see the Lord saying, as I began to pray for you I saw some recipe cards, and He said you are going to begin to write out recipe cards on how to do things, He says it is not going to be that great long epistle, He said it is going to be that short, brief recipe card, and He said it is going to be foundational, and you are going to develop like a card file or like a record book, and He said here’s how to do these things, and here’s how to handle those things, and here’s ohw to handle the financial issues, and here is how to handle the telephone calls and here’s how to do this. And I really sense that the Lord is saying Daughter I am going to give these things into your spirit, and He says there are things there that people take for granted, but He said no Daughter I placed that in your heart.
And I have called you forth even to be a reproducer saith the Lord, He said you have an ability with administration, He said you have ability to deal with issues, He said Daughter in the days to come He said, I am going to put you in an overload position, He said I am going to cause those thing to come at you day and night, He said begin to write them down, they are just nuggets, He said I am placing them in your spirit, He said it is a vital tool for My people saith the Lord. I really sense that the Lord is going to give you both opportunities to begin to launch out others, and it is going to be a launching from the church, but I really sense that there are other churches who are going to come, they are going to study for a while and then you are going to launch them out, and I really sense that is a season of Apostolic restoration.
And Brother I really sense, Norman, that the Lord is saying that that time of travel is going to come to an end, He said it is going to be a season, and then He said it is going to be a time when I am going to let you come back, He said I am going to let you do some rebuilding, He said I am going to let you do some painting, and He said I am going to let you put some things on canvas. And He said I am going to show you some things in the night hour, He said you are going to come and translate those things during the daytime, and He said I m going to cause a new spirit to rise up, and He said you are going to see those things as you paint, He said it is going to be just like a neon light coming at you, and He said I am going to cause you to change your palate, He said I am going to put some colours in there that you have never seen. And the Lord said I am coming in your spirit right now, release that Lord. Thank You Lord, thank You, Father.
Lord we pray over the marriage, Lord You said we could impart more by the laying on of hands than all the hours in counsel, and so Father right now, Lord, we lay hands on them, we impart such as we have, we thank You for this precious couple, Lord, we thank You for the gift of the body of Christ, Lord, we charge them right now that anointing for marriage, that anointing for family relationships, Lord we release it in their spirit right now, in Jesus’ name.
Prophet Barbara Edwards –And Norman and Barbara I see the Lord is saying and He wants me to relay to you “well done good and faithful servants” for the Lord says I have anointed you, I have appointed you, and I have given you a mandate and I have a mantle for you to wear. And the Lord says I want you to step out of where you are and I want you to step into this mantle, because this mantle is waiting for you to wear because it is going to fit perfectly, and you are to walk out of where you are. And the Lord says I am bringing forth those ones, those supporters of the church, those ones who are going to be able to ably come in and take your place while you are away. And the Lord says I am releasing to you pastors within the church that are going to pastor while you are away.
There is going to be youth pastors, there is going to be a children’s pastors, I sense that there is going to be a strong ladies ministry within this church. I see growth and extension within this place. But the Lord says first of all My Son and My Daughter I want you to step forward in what I have ordained for you to do. And it is like you say well I can’t do it because there is not the support behind me. But the Lord says “yes you can” because as you release I am going to fill the demand because the Lord says I cannot fill the demand, I cannot supply until you let go, and the Lord says as I take you forward I am going to extend you, I am going to expand you. And the Lord says I am even going to increase you says God, I am placing within you that breakthrough spirit. And I sense that as you continue to walk with that breakthrough spirit, that warrior spirit of the Apostle, the Lord says you are even going to see a breakthrough within the finances, not only within your own personal lives, but within your church. And the Lord says I am going to supply every need, there will not be a need. And the Lord said I am even going to supply your wants. Because the Lord says, as you have been faithful to Me surely I will be faithful to you.
25.7.03 Redigging the Wells of Revival and Transformation Conference we hosted in Cairns
BarbaraMiller – I saw a road. I believe the Lord has a word for the conference – Today My people, yes, I have set you firmly on that road to transformation in this nation. I have set you firmly. I have established you on the road to revival in this nation. The foundations have been laid. There have been many that have toiled, that have prayed, that have sought My face in this nation. And you have been on the ground weeping for this nation, repenting for this nation. And the Lord would say I have heard your prayers. I have not been deaf to your prayers but I have heard your prayers. And I am setting you and establishing you even more firmly on that road, on that pathway today towards revival and transformation in this nation.
For I would change this land says the Lord and I would set it upon a pathway to righteousness. I would set it upon a pathway to righteousness. I would set it upon a pathway that would glorify Me. For I have chosen this nation says the Lord to be like a royal diadem in My hand, one that would shine a light for Me among the nations. One that is not going to be pushed away any more but one that will be seen and My hand will be seen to be moving in this nation.
And I will light many fires upon the nation. I will take that dry kindle and I will light fires says the Lord. I will spark fires in this nation that will go so quickly. Once that fire is lit, it will go so quickly for I purpose to do it says the Lord. It is in My hand to do so. And I will choose the time and the place but believe Me says the Lord the time is near. The time is not far off. I’ll set this nation on such a fire that you have only dreamed of, that you’ve only seen in your prayers and your visions but I will do it says the Lord and it is not far off. I have firmly established it and even in this place today, even in this conference. You who are gathered here today will be part of what I purpose to do in this nation. I’m setting it on a pathway to righteousness, a pathway to healing and a road to transformation.
July 2003, Peter Morgan preached about 3weeks after Re-digging of Wells conference
Barbara Miller – I saw an eggshell cracking open and gave a word that God was doing a new thing. As it was not recorded at the time, I don’t have any detail. However, afterwards, God led me to understand that because Norman and I had been speaking prophetically to the city, then we would soon be speaking prophetically into the lives of pastors in the city.
29.7.03
Barbara Miller – While we were praising and worshipping, some of you may remember having seen photos of those old gramophones that had a dog beside it and had His Master’s Voice. And I saw that and I believe the Lord was reminding us to listen to His voice, to guide us in everything we do, and I saw a train and there was this railway line in the sky, high up in the sky, and this train was coming towards us, and I believe the Lord was saying ‘this is My revival train and its almost upon you.’ And I praise the Lord for that.
And as I was waiting on the Lord, I also remembered something that I read last night, and it was about a church that was praying for revival and praying and praying earnestly for revival, and revival did come to their city, but it didn’t start in their church, and they were a little bit upset about it, and they said Lord we were the one who prayed for that revival, how come You visited that dead church over there who hadn’t even been praying for it? But they had to get their attitude right because the Lord was saying to them well look that church over there needed it, and it showed My glory greater moving there first, and your humility then will allow Me to move to the rest of the city. They had to get their attitude right because there was a disappointment at first when the Lord worked that way. We need to remember that too because we have been praying for revival a long time, and that revival fire might break out somewhere else in the city, and that’s OK, because we are all part of God’s church, and God is still answering our prayers even if He answers it somewhere else instead of right here.
I think the reason the Lord made me remember that this morning, was it also made me remember a word of Leon Walters, an Apostle from the USA who was a speaker at a conference we hosted in September 11, 2001. It is about two years now since he gave that prophecy, and part of it was, he said that we have been praying and praying and praying for the city and the churches in the city, and he said we will be saying to ourselves why aren’t we growing and they are. And the Lord said He is answering our prayer. This is what Leon said two years ago; He is answering our prayer by growing other churches in this city. And he said but your day will come, after you have been faithful to do that your day will come and within three years, so we have got just under a year to go, within three years your church will grow to 300. And we looked at that after, and we thought well that’s a Gideon’s number, Gideon’s 300. And he said it is going to get to the point that what is going to happen is you won’t be taking anybody from any other churches, but there are going to be pastors in other churches who are going to say we have got this family in our church, we have taken them as far as we can take them, we believe for them to go to another level we need to send them to your church to become part of your fellowship.
So, we really need to move out of this building in December to where God wants us to go because you can look around and see that we cannot fit 300 people in here, and within a year we are going to have that number, because I believe the word of Apostle Leon. So, if we believe the word of God through Leon, then we need to act on it so, for those who haven’t already been praying where we need to move to on December 15, when our lease runs out, please pray. For anyone who hasn’t been looking around for where we might go to, please look around for where we might go. Apostle Leon also prophesied that we would have 50 or 60 acres of land. And that we would have an apostolic and prophetic base there, and also that we would have an international training school, and that we would have a healing centre there. So, we really need to find that place and really pray in the finance for it. But I really believe God was reminding us of that this morning.

Barbara Miller – The Lord has given me a scripture that I need to read out, I really need to read a fair bit for you to get the full strength of it. It was like I could see Ezekiel looking through a hole in the wall of the temple and seeing idolaters. (This is just before a visit to Canberra where we would be ministering).
What I was seeing was something that reminded me of Ezekiel, it was like seeing someone in a house who was a Christian, and who was doing things that were unacceptable to the Lord. He took me to a scripture in Ezekiel, and I thought O I don’t remember where it is, Ezekiel is so big, how long will it take me to find it? And I opened up straight to that very place. So, to me that was confirmation that the Lord wanted me to read from it. I will put a little bit of context on it first before I read it. It is Ezekiel 8. What it is about is the glory leaving the temple, we know the glory comes in through the East Gate, but there was a time when the glory left the temple, and this is what it talks about. (Reads Ezekiel 8) and the Chapter 9 talks about the glory moving from out of the temple, and Ezekiel actually saw it, I don’t know if anyone else did, but he actually saw the glory progressively move out of the temple. Idolaters were killed. It talks about that in chapters 9 and 10, and then in it there is judgement on Israel’s leaders.
And the glory did come back to the temple later on. I said Lord why have You brought this particular scripture to my attention? And I believe what He is saying is that it is similar to the story about Achan, remember when Joshua won the battle of Jericho, but when they went to Ai they were defeated there because there was sin in the camp. And I think that one of the reasons churches have difficulty today, is that God looks on us as a body, O.K. we have local churches, but God is looking at us, the church in the city, the church in the nation. And there are things that are going on that are detestable to Him. Even the leaders, even the elders, the women and the men, and worshipping other gods and doing various things that make the Lord angry, and cause the Glory of God not to be in the temple. You know when we reach out, we come here on Sundays, and we reach out and we say well God send Your Glory, send Your Glory, but what we have got to realize we are not just on our own in here this Sunday morning as we reach out for God’s Glory. Unfortunately, and I am not saying that we are wonderful and that there is nothing wrong with us, because that is far from the truth, but what I am saying is that we are offended by what is happening in the Body of Christ elsewhere as well.
Barbara prayed a prayer of repentance on behalf of ourselves and on behalf of the whole body.

Pam Wordham – (Tongues and interpretation)
For yea says the Lord, the trumpet has sounded, I have heard. And yea says the Lord, from the north, from the south, from the east, from the west, you shall see (x4), they are coming (x4), yea says the Lord, I heard, I heard, I heard your voice, I heard your heart, I saw your tears, they are coming (x3), do not give up, do not fret, rejoice in your heart, rejoice, rejoice, rejoice for I AM lord, I am Lord, I am the Lord, I AM THE GREAT I AM.
Barbara Miller – I was seeing many, many youth, hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of youth. And they were around Parliament House in Canberra, and they were kneeling, and they were weeping, and they were crying out to God for this nation. And I believe we are going to see that happen soon, and I believe that the Lord is raising up such a generation of youth in this nation, that they will not say no to the call of the Lord, but when He sounds the Trumpet Call they will hear from wherever they are, and they will gather wherever He has called them, even if there is no advertising, they will hear the voice of the Lord that will call them, will search them out, and they will come and they will go to Canberra. I don’t know how they will get there but they will get there, even if they have to hitch a ride, catch a bus, whatever they do, they will get there when the time is ripe and the Lord has called that time and that place. They will be there, and they will be pouring their hearts out to the Lord, and they will be crying out for this generation of youth and they will be crying out for the nation. We will see a huge revival sweep this nation because of it, because the youth are fed up and they say no more, no more, the world has no more attraction for me, but I am sold out for the Lord and when that heart’s cry goes up and reaches the sky, the Lord will pour out such an anointing upon this nation that will sweep everyone in, sweep all before it.
(Amazingly that happened the following year when Lou Engle had The Call at Parliament House Canberra and we coincidentally organised our Ps 24:7 Conference on Opening the Gates to the King of Glory at the same time. So, we asked Lou to be a speaker at our conference. The anointing on Lou and The Call and our conference was incredible. And the youth heard God’s call and were sold out for Him.)
Norman Miller – I believe that has been the heart of God, seeing the generation of Nazarites that will not take backward steps. I have been longing to see youth in this city be so radical and sold out. And it has been my prayer, Lord, God’s going to have to do something with the youth in our city, God’s going to have to bring such a boldness of their lives like never before, where they will not turn and they will not waver between two opinions, they will not serve the false god, they will serve the One Who is the True and Living God. They will be truly sold out for Him. And I believe that this generation that God brings into this church, they are going to be a generation God is going to call them into Afghanistan. And I have been praying this way, and I have been praying that God will send them even to the Moslem nations. And I pray that many of them will go to Afghanistan.
The generation that God brings into this city and that God raises up, they are going to know God’s call upon their life, they are not going to worry about the securities, because they know Who their security is in, the Lord Jesus Christ. They will go wherever God will send them, they will not place any restrictions, boundaries, they will know no limits, because God will make a way. He will make ways in the wilderness. He will make ways in the deserts.
There will be the streams that God will raise up and God will flow and God will connect. And I believe that God needs to raise up a generation of youth that is so sold out, that is weekly on our streets, that is preaching on our streets, that will not matter, youth who will not worry about being martyred, men and women will not even worry about being martyred in these days. They will live for the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords. They know Who their life is in and they will truly surrender, and submit. And I believe that there is a call for each one of us in this place, even a generation that we are living in, I believe that there are some things that you need to sacrifice at the altar of God, that you need to lay aside your agendas, and your ways of thinking, and come into and know the mind of Christ, know what God is saying and doing. And I believe that God wants to do something here this morning. Do you want to surrender all? And if God calls you to a place, will you go? Will you respond to the call? Will you respond to the 24/7 call in this nation? Will you respond to the call in the ministry on your life? He is going to call you into a greater intimacy with Him, He is going to call you to a greater level with Him. Will you take that call seriously for the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords? It is time to mean business with God. Will you say ‘Speak Lord, your son/daughter hears You’.

Barbara Miller – While we were in praise and worship what I was seeing was a shofar, and I believe that the Lord was saying is that He has got a trumpet call that is going right through this nation, and that trumpet is saying “its time, time for completion of all things”, and its also a call to praise and worship. Now we need to be prepared for what God wants to do and one of the ways to be prepared is to be a people of worship. People of worship are also a people of power.
And as I was watching this, I said Lord is there anything else? because it was such a strong impression about this shofar. Then I saw some Indian people in North America, because there was the chief in the big headdress and there was like a peace-pipe with some feathers coming off it. Then later I saw like in Switzerland, I think I have seen them on TV one time, a really, really long pipe kind of thing, it was so incredibly long, like a snowy mountain, and I could see this thing being blown, and I thought well that fits in with the trumpet sound blowing (a glockenspiel). I certainly believe that what the Lord was saying is that it is not just in Australia that the shofar or the trumpet is sounding and saying its time, but its all over the world. God is sounding His trumpet call, His blast, saying its time, be prepared, get ready.
And I believe that there is more that the Lord wants to say. Barbara prays.
The other thing I saw as I was waiting on the Lord, as I went back to North America, was the drums, the native drums. Lord, I thank You that You are sending Your sound out worldwide to say get ready. And I believe the Lord would say Indeed My people get ready for the time is short, the time is now. There is no time for catching up upon those things that you said you wanted to do and you never did. There is so little time to say the “sorry” to people that you need to say “sorry” to. Very soon it is going to be too late to say ‘sorry’. Very soon it is going to be too late to do the things I asked you to do, and you never got round to.
So, My people get ready because I will want an account of you in that day. There are things I have called you to do over the years and you have not even set one foot to the thing that I have called you to do. There are others who have put your hands to the task for such a little time and have fallen away because it seemed too hard. The Lord said I will require an account of you in that day. The time is so short to get your heart right with Me and to do the thing that I have called you to do.
The Lord says I have put ministries upon some of you, I have called some of, you and you have not taken it up. There are things I would have you do before it is too late. I would have you speak to your families before it is too late, I would have you speak to people in your workplaces, even others in this city and in this nation, and even in the nations before it is too late, says the Lord. Hear My call, there will not be many more blasts before the final one is sounded, says the Lord, hear My call, heed this word, attend to the message, don’t let it fall on deaf ears, don’t let it fall to the ground unheeded. Pick it up, run with it says the Lord, run with the call that I have upon your life before it is too late. Say your ‘sorrys’ to those ones you have hurt before it is too late. For I will soon require an account of you, says the Lord. There will be much weeping in that day, there will be much weeping for things that should have been done, that should have been said, and weren’t. Heed the call before it is too late, says the Lord.
Thank You Lord. Amen
