Fruit, The New Year Essential
Fruit, The New Year Essential (by Kathy Gabler)
Fruit is healthy for the physical body, but we don’t benefit from it being beautifully displayed in the fruit bowl. It has to be eaten and ingested to become a part of us. Likewise we read about the fruits of the Spirit, but until they are evidenced in our lives we have an ideal rather than an impact. The fruits of the Spirit are not an optional dessert on the buffet of the Christian life. 
Neither are the fruits of the Spirit a spiritual nature that we struggle to display. The fruit of the Spirit is His nature and when we submit to and follow the Holy Spirit (in daily choices) we manifest His nature. Believer or non-believer, who doesn’t benefit from God bringing “gifts into our lives, much the same way that fruit appears in an orchard–things like affection for others, exuberance about life, serenity. We develop a willingness to stick with things, a sense of compassion in the heart, and a conviction that a basic holiness permeates things and people. We find ourselves involved in loyal commitments, not needing to force our way in life, able to marshal and direct our energies wisely.” (Galatians 5 The Message)

He Is Still Captain
He Is Still Captain
This encouraging word was given at Grace International yesterday: His name is Jeshua. His name is Joshua, His name is Captain. His name is Jehovah-Sabaoth, Lord of Hosts. Jehovah, Joshua, Lord of Hosts says unto His people today, “Come and join me in triumphal procession.
I am leading you in triumphal procession because I have defeated all of your enemies. I defeated certain of your enemies before they were even born. I defeated some of your enemies before there was even an institution or an entity for them to move within and for them to exist within. I have defeated entire entities. I have defeated entire nations, says the Lord. Come and join me in triumphal procession. Do not be like Gehazi who focused on the troops around the mountain. But be like the one the prophet called for, for their eyes to be opened and know that there are more with you than there are against you. I have defeated all of your enemies. If you take all of them and pile them up in one big pile, I have still defeated them no matter how big or how numerous. My name is Jeshua. My name is Joshua. I am still Captain of the Hosts of Israel. And I have defeated your enemies. So join me in triumphal procession with a shout of victory.
And Elisha prayed, and said, “Lord, I pray, open his eyes that he may see.” Then the Lord opened the eyes of the young man, and he saw. And behold, the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha. (2K.6:17, NKJV)
You may listen to the audio of the service yesterday at www.graceic.org. Just click on the little yellow TV on the right side of the page. When you get to the streaming page, on the right, you will see a pic of Pastor Joe. It will say in red “off air.” But go ahead and click on the little mic. The recording begins with Melissa leading worship. The prophecy is at 29.5 min.)
The Name Of The Lord Is
The name of the Lord is…
The name of the Lord is a Strong Tower.
In that name we defy all hostile assault. In that name we set up a blockade against all that is not life and all that is not blessing.
God has named Himself and has given us His names so that we may know how to depend upon Him in any situation. Those names help remind us that He is our Eternal Constant. (“I change not.”) Just the saying of those names is a praise unto Jahve. Blessed be the name of the Lord!
“The name of the Lord is a strong tower; the [consistently] righteous man [upright and in right standing with God] runs into it and is safe, high [above evil] and strong.” (Prov.18:10)
Previous Restrictions Are Being Removed
Previous Restrictions Are Being Removed
Previous restrictions are being removed and our awareness of possibilities and solutions for our family, nation and future will increase. Our awareness will increase so that we may participate and lead in the resolve of issues.
3-“For you will spread abroad to the right and to the left.
And your descendants will possess nations And will resettle the desolate cities.
4-“Fear not, for you will not be put to shame; And do not feel humiliated, for you will not be disgraced; But you will forget the shame of your youth, And the reproach of your widowhood you will remember no more. (Isa.54:3-4, NASB)
“YOUTH”: when things were attempted but nothing was accomplished; this doesn’t necessarily refer to biological age but to the early attempts we made at what we thought was purpose.
Also refers to untimely words, foolish actions and decisions.
“WIDOWHOOD”: unproductive, unfruitful time; a widow did not bare children or increase family, but was known for suffering loss.
We will not be disgraced for we will not remember the shame and reproach and will therefore look for progress and victories through God’s grace.
DECLARE: “My awareness of possibilities and solutions is increasing and I will break out on the right and on the left and will not fear because I will no longer remember any shame.”
We Live In This Time In History Because
We Live In This Time In History Because
We live in this time in history because God ordained it so and He also ordained the days to come for His Name’s sake (Ps23:3;106:8;1Jn2:12;3Jn:1:7)
It is not our purpose in living to simply observe “the tide” of circumstances but to turn the tide. We do not live so we might observe history taking place but so we might make history.
Typically after someone shares about how they were powerfully used of God, someone will walk up afterwards and say something like, “Yes, but you are a full-time minister, pastor, evangelist, prophet etc., etc.” Title, T-shirt or cap doesn’t matter. The anointing and empowering One, the Holy Spirit is the same in every believer at any time in history.
The reason we do not speak with a British accent and send our taxes to London each April is because 1000’s of nameless people participated in the American Revolution and turned the tide for the nation. It could not have been done by the dozen or so people whose names made it into the history books.
Jahweh is no less faithful in this moment of history than He was in 2Co 4:9: “we know that God knows what to do; we’ve been spiritually terrorized, but God hasn’t left our side.”
“So teach us to number our days, that we may get us a heart of wisdom.” (Ps.90:12)
DECLARE: “I do not live so I might observe history taking place but so I might make history. I was born at the right time and will effectively impact the sphere of influence God has given me in my generation.”
DREAMS AND VISIONS ARE PART OF OUR DESTINY
DREAMS AND VISIONS ARE PART OF OUR DESTINY AS DECLARED BY GOD (Kathy Gabler)
“And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, [4395(Strong’s) propheteuo- to prophesy, to be a prophet, to speak forth by divine inspirations, to predict: 1) to prophesy, 
2) with the idea of foretelling future events pertaining especially to the kingdom of God, 3) to utter forth, to declare, a thing which can only be known by divine revelation, 4) to break forth under sudden impulse in lofty discourse or praise of the divine counsels; under like prompting, to teach, refute, reprove, admonish, comfort others, 5) to act as a prophet, to discharge the prophetic office.]
And your young [junior ranks] men shall see visions, [an appearance divinely granted] and your old [senior in rank] men shall dream dreams: [dream or vision seen in sleep].” Acts 2:17
So expect God’s impartation of prophecy, dreams and visions upon all flesh. His sovereign appointments will not regard the natural barriers of logic, age or gender. Also, it is of utmost importance that we expect our understanding to be opened so that we can heed the prophecies, dreams and visions that we receive from the Spirit’s outpouring!

Prophetic Gift Calls Us To Perseverance
Prophetic Gift Calls Us To Perseverance
When God gives a promise He gives a witness of the Holy Spirit in our hearts. He… put his Spirit in our hearts as a deposit, guaranteeing what is to come (2Co 1:22). We allow pressures and delay to smother the witness, of the Holy Spirit, to promise. When we are on our way to the fulfillment of promise and the wind is not at our backs, the tendency is to turn around and go back so that we are not 
opposed by the wind. Rowing with the wind is much easier than rowing against the wind. But winds of opposition will come from the enemy because he does not want the promise of God to be fulfilled in us. If it is fulfilled in us it will not only revolutionize our lives but it will also bless those around us. It will advance the Kingdom of God.
We need the prophetic gift around regularly strengthening, encouraging and comforting (1Co 14:3) because the receiving of promise from God does not prevent waves from coming over the side of the boat. But the boat was already a considerable distance from land, buffeted by the waves because the wind was against it (Mt 14:24). The fact that we have received a prophecy does not guarantee that the wind will be at our backs. The waves coming over the side do not have to sink us. The wind does not have to destroy us. Believe it or not, those things do not even have to discourage us. They should actually build into us determination. They should make us more determined to focus on the goal. Those who strengthen and encourage the people of God out of a prophetic gift keep us grounded in the Word and looking toward the goal.

Dreams Can Deal With Your Concerns
Dreams Can Deal With Your Concerns
My dad often dreamed the solution to mechanical problems that his awake mind could not solve. Possibly the answer came in dreams because his awake mind was distracted by pressures and 
frustrations. Possibly his awake mind’s library of known facts had incomplete or wrong conclusions. Conclusions establish a boundary that says: “NO MORE THINKING BEYOND THIS LINE.” This mental fence around an issue tells “awake logic” to explore no further, but dreams are not limited to “awake logic.” Sometimes his dreams were gifts from the Lord, a Word of Knowledge or Word of Wisdom.

Dreams As Telegrams
Dreams can be rehearsals or telegrams. There is always a reason for dreaming, but not all dreams are to be researched or acted upon. Some dreams are mixed messages and only parts are of particular significance; but some are significant rehearsals or timely telegrams. Dreams are usually significant if they are: recurring or unforgettable or intensely detailed. 
(This excerpt is from Kathy’s article “Dreams–He That Hath An Ear, Let Him Hear” taken from SEEC Magazine.)
Hearing In Dreams
Hearing In Dreams
Dreams are a vivid example of how we communicate in sounds and pictures and senses. Just like reading words on a page, seeing the look on someone’s face or having a conversation, dreams can speak to
us. Most people dream, just like most people have ears and the ability to hear sounds. But sometimes we do not pay attention to our dreams, just like we do not really hear the meaning of words that pass through our ears. For example, it is possible to have several people in the same room with a television on. Even though they have ears to hear, there is no guarantee that everyone will hear what is said. If they pay attention and understand the meaning of the words and the images on the screen, then they are hearing. So it is with dreams. I believe that in dreams we have an ear to hear; and if we will hear, God can and will speak to us. If we expect to hear from God in dreams, our faith ushers Him in.
(This excerpt is from Kathy’s article “Dreams–He That Hath An Ear, Let Him Hear” taken from SEEC Magazine.)
The Search Builds Relationship
The Search Builds Relationship
God often communicates with man in symbols and parallels. As Jesus spoke in parables, on one level, the natural mind could simply remember an interesting story; but the spirit of man could discern real-life truths within the story and act on them. Being stirred in spirit enough to search out and lay hold of the truth builds relationship with Truth, just as His disciples built relationship
with Him as they sought Him out wanting to understand the truth. God still speaks through symbols and parallels whether in dreams or visions or parables, to lead to understanding – the intimate understanding and conversation of friends. Godly dreams display strategies, confirm plans and direction, and reveal overcoming truths. As we realize this, we realize how intricate and awesome our God is, and our understanding and love for Him grow in the search.
“It is the glory of God to conceal and keep close a word, a matter, advice, counsel, a thought; but it is the honor, glory, abundant riches, and splendor of kings to search out his word, his counsel and his thoughts,” (Prov 25:2-paraphrase).
(This excerpt is from Kathy’s article “Dreams–He That Hath An Ear, Let Him Hear” taken from SEEC Magazine.)
Momentum Of God
We are getting caught up into the momentum of God’s workings. It’s not that momentum is increasing, it is that we are getting caught up into the momentum that God has for His Kingdom purposes.
Isa.40:28-31 “Have you not known? Have you not heard? The everlasting God, the Lord, the Creator of the ends of the earth, does not faint or grow weary; there is no searching of His understanding.
29 He gives power to the faint and weary, and to him who has no might He increases strength [causing it to multiply and making it to abound].
30 Even youths shall faint and be weary, and [selected] young men shall feebly stumble and fall exhausted;
31 But those who wait for the Lord [who expect, look for, and hope in Him] shall change and renew their strength and power; they shall lift their wings and mount up [close to God] as eagles [mount up to the sun]; they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint or become tired.”
If there is no wind, if there is no momentum, why would the eagle spread his wings Jehovah’s momentum never slows and certainly never ceases.
DECLARE: “The wind of God is blowing, the momentum of God is advancing His cause and I will lift my wings and mount up close to God and run and not be weary in His purposes.”

Corruption Will Not Prevent
I declare that corruption will not prevent successes for the people of God.
Corruption is not unique to _______, and corruption does not PREVENT profits from being made or successes occurring for the people of God walking in His Kingdom purposes. (You fill in the blank in the area you have noticed and that has you concerned, e.g., person, entity, nation)
Prov.29:16 “When the wicked are in authority, transgression increases, but the [uncompromisingly] righteous shall see the fall of the wicked.”
Declare: “Corruption will not prevent the people of God from moving forward in success for His Kingdom purposes. Corruption will not prevent God-ordained, key people from being raised up in government or in the justice system. Corruption will not prevent proper, beneficial entities from being raised up and supported in this nation. We will see corruption fall in 2013.”
Loved Ones Responding
I declare that loved ones and those we were in relationship with in the past, will respond to the Holy Spirit’s dealings and will come into the Kingdom as we pray and make declarations over them and as we speak to them words God has given us.
27 From the four corners of the earth people are coming to their senses, are running back to God 28 Long-lost families are falling on their faces before him. God has taken charge; from now on he has the last word. 29 All the power-mongers are before him —worshiping! All the poor and powerless, too—worshiping! Along with those who never got it together—worshiping! 30 Our children and their children will get in on this As the word is passed along from parent to child. 31 Babies not yet conceived will hear the good news—that God does what he says. (Ps.22, Msg)
Declare: “Family members and past relationships that have been lost will respond to the Holy Spirit and will come into the Kingdom for such a time as this.”
Creative Solutions
Creative Solutions
I declare that Creator-God will creatively bring about solutions for our families, our nation and Israel in 2013.
Blessed is He who is so creative, our Lord God. If He can create such beautiful wonders that our eyes can barely believe what they are seeing, can’t He creatively bring about solutions and resolve concerning us and our nation and Israel? I think the answer is: “Well, He’s done it before!”
DECLARE: “He has done it before and He will do it again”
“Don’t you know anything? Haven’t you been listening? God doesn’t come and go. God lasts. He’s Creator of all you can see or imagine. He doesn’t get tired out, doesn’t pause to catch His breath. And He knows everything, inside and out.” (Isa40:28, Msg)
“For I know the thoughts and plans that I have for you, says the Lord, thoughts and plans for welfare and peace and not for evil, to give you hope in your final outcome.” (Jer.29:11, Amp)
“thoughts”: a device, a plan, a purpose, an invention (Thayer)
If need be, He can invent an event or a thing to bring solution in my life.
