The year 2016 will be a year of reformation
for the believer. I have never felt such a deep stirring to bring forth a
message concerning a new year! For several days I have felt a deep impression
from the Lord that I deliver a prophetic word for the year 2016. Each day I
have sat on an old church bench that came from New London, CT. This old pew sat
in a church that experienced the Great Awakening in the 1740’s. As I sat in the
pew to pray I would hear over and over the Lord say to me, “Son, I will shout
over my people in 2016!” I have never written a prophetic word concerning a new
year; yet, I have personally been deeply grieved over the last several months.
While I hold onto the vision of the Remnant Awakening I also know that time is
running out. In 2015 we have seen much of the diabolical plan of Satan begin to
reveal itself bolder than ever before. We saw marriage redefined by an over
reaching court, Isis take more ground, the exposure of Planned Parenthoods
selling of baby body parts, and many of the main stream Christian movements
move closer towards the euthanasia of the Holy Spirit movement. But, I am here to announce, “all is not lost!”
Wake-up and prepare yourself for a new day.
As I have already stated, I heard the Lord
say over and over to me, “Son I will shout over my people in 2016!” This
stirred me so deeply, because I once heard a powerful quote by C. S. Lewis, “God whispers to us in our
pleasures, speaks in our consciences, but shouts in our pains. It is his
megaphone to rouse a deaf world.”[1]
I
also began to study the places in the Bible where God shouts. Here is a verse
that declares the Lord’s shout in Psalms
47:5-6, “God went up with a shout, the Lord with
the sound of a trumpet. Sing praises
to God, sing praises; sing praises to our King, sing praises.” (MEV)
I
have personally heard this shout on several occasions. Once, was in the middle
of the night in Kingman, AZ, when God awakened me in my hotel room. It was
March 7, 2011, at 3:30 in the morning, and the Lord informed me to write my
first book called, “Why is God so mad at me.” This interruption changed
everything. I also heard the Lord say to me in July of 2014 the term “Ah
Sovereign, Lord.” This became a message of repentance and also a chapter in my
last book. My wife, Karen, also had this experience with her first book. I also
believe for many of us that God waits till the stillness of the night to awaken
us, because during the day we speak more than we listen. The Bible says in Psalms
78:65, “Then the Lord awoke as
one out of sleep, and like a
mighty man who shouts because of wine.” (MEV)
I asked
the Lord what it meant that He would shout over His people in 2016. He led me
to Psalms 89:14-15, “Righteousness and justice are the foundation
of Your throne; mercy
and truth shall go before Your presence. Blessed
are the people who know the joyful shout. They
walk, O Lord, in the light of Your presence.” (MEV) The
shout of the Lord is “joyful” to
those who know His ways! I then heard Father say, “I have heard the cries of
the righteous and He is declaring respite for His children. My shout will cause
the enemy to coward and take refuge from my glory.” Then He said, deliver a
message to my people.
The
following is what I felt the Lord has told me to deliver to you:
2016 will
be a year of reclamation, restoration, revolution and revival. The righteous
will experience an unprecedented awakening of those whom have grown weary and
tired in the battle. The righteous whom has lost their will to fight will
suddenly be endued with power as never before. They will be given visions and
dreams. They will suddenly find themselves with opportunities that have caused Heaven
to smile at their obedience. Doors will swing wide open that no man can shut.
God is handing out parchment and scrolls in prayer closets to those who know
His heart. The parchments are announcements of what the Lord is about to do in
the land, and these scrolls have hidden in them the keys to the kingdom of God.
The Lord is clothing His righteous ones with humility and boldness. The Lord
has reserved for Himself a Holy Remnant that know His voice. These are those
whom have decided to go deeper and walk out His precepts. Favor will be upon
their heads. They will suddenly find access to places once considered locked,
and they will walk with supernatural influence.
There
will be much civil unrest across America. The civil unrest will be caused by
different political and social movements. It will look like the late 60’s. This
will cause the righteous to stand up and say enough! God will awaken the mom
movement. Mothers will stand up and declare leave our children alone. There
passion will be to tell culture, government and politicians that they will not
stand by and watch their children’s identity be stolen. If they listen to the Lord
they will be more powerful than the suffrage movement. These women will not be
led by celebrities, but by prayer warriors.
God
will visit the churches that have and are declaring His holiness and the pure Gospel.
They will experience supernatural growth. Even churches that many have said
will never grow will suddenly become shining voices in their cities. Waves of
His glory will roll through the services like a fog in the early morning. The
services will be marked with repentance and miracles. There will be a mass
exodus from the churches that do not preach the whole council of God. Prayer
and intercession will once again mark houses of worship. God is causing new
wells to spring up. Children’s ministries services will resound with the sound
of worship, gifts of the Spirit and miraculous moves of God. There will be a
renewed call to evening worship in places that are hungry for more. A new sound
of worship will come forth from psalmists. This will be a sound that is birthed
by Heaven. God will awaken older and retired ministers to realize that their
job is not complete. They will be endued with power to once again proclaim
God’s truth. Youth services will no longer be about the crowd or the party
atmosphere, but rather sacred assemblies where God will ignite a fresh fire.
Righteous
church leaders will suddenly find their physical and spiritual selves renewed
with wings like eagles. They will be cured of disease and find themselves resting
like never before. Mentally leaders will find that depression has lost its grip
on their lives. They will brim with fresh vision. They will also see their
households refreshed. Their marriages will glow with renewed love, intimacy and
spiritual bonding. Their children will become enamored with the joy of the
Lord. Prodigal children will return to the front doors to once again embrace
the awesomeness of God. The Lord will bless their homes with uncanny finances.
Many of these leaders will be reminded of prophesies and promises from the Lord
as He brings them into fruition. These leaders will also write books birthed in
the prayer closet.
Warning:
For the leaders who no longer preach a message of conviction and truth, and
those who declare their pre-packaged humanistic messages, their words will not
go farther than the pulpit. It will be as if the people in the congregation
have earplugs keeping them from hearing. These leaders are on trial in the
court of God’s kingdom, and if not careful they will be found in contempt. Even
now Father is visiting many of these leaders, and they are being given an
opportunity to repent. If they do not repent they will find themselves staring
at empty chairs in their palatial structures. Their places of leadership will
be vacant. God is shouting over them.
God is
visiting homes both Christian and secular. God is restoring broken marriages.
Family altars and times of worship will be released in homes that have grown
stagnate and comfortable. God is breaking off lethargy. There will be a renewed
sense of conviction in homes that have allowed God to be locked outside. Prayer
rooms will take over rooms reserved for guests. For the houses that are willing
to restore God to His rightful place they will feel Him walking through their
home. Healing will be in their water. Fathers and mothers must anoint their
families. Worship will come from the bedrooms of children. Father’s will have
their voices restored as leaders in homes where they were subjugated by
culture. They will rise early and pray. Prodigal fathers and mothers will
return to their place of leadership as the Lord’s grace calls to them.
The
gatherings of the “unknowns” will take place across America. These gatherings
will be planned and impromptu. They will be powerful movements that lead people
to repentance and adoration. They will not be gatherings with well-known
speakers or worship bands, but rather those whom have been awakened by the awe
of the Lord will lead them. I believe that the Remnant Awakening will be a part
of this.
In 2016
there will be a great awakening in parts of Asia, Europe, Africa, South America
and parts of the USA. The enemies of the cross will rise against these
movements and in return they will experience great calamity and disease. Their
evil plans will be exposed in supernatural ways. Israel will once again turn
back the tide of Islam, and its borders will be enhanced. America will
experience several close calls by terrorists and all but one will be thwarted.
This will cause our nation to once again cry out to God. A renewed sense of God’s
sovereignty will over take many communities, and with that people will awaken
to the lies of the secularist. God’s people will suddenly stand in opposition
to the lies of the enemy. They will find themselves marching as if to war.
There
will be many outbreaks of God’s glory on university and college campuses.
Christian universities that no longer stand behind their creed and original
plan will have opportunity to return to the Masters Plan! God will use the
quiet and meek to be a powerful voice of freedom to those whom are blinded by
the enemy.
There
will also be a holy awakening of God’s love and deliverance within the
Homosexual community. There will be those whom have experienced and know God’s
presence that will be driven to their knees. God is fiercely jealous of His
kidnapped children. He is answering the prayers of righteous parents who are
demanding that their seed be returned.
USA
Presidential Election: There will be a major surprise during the USA
presidential election. Christians must pray for God to show them the right
candidate. They must not listen to the hype, but ask for discernment. The
church must pray for the Lord’s will to be done.
Finances:
The global market will grow increasingly unstable. Yet, the Lord is releasing
finances to the righteous. Conviction will fall upon many wealthy to sow into
ministry. This will allow the churches and ministries that the Lord trusts to
experience financial growth for the vision. The camels are coming to the places
where they can drink fresh water. We will see the systematic reduction of large
ministries that have lost their compass.
Lastly,
the Lord declares, “that His shout will not be heard by all, but only by those
whom have made themselves attentive to His ear!” He is close to the broken
hearted and your cries are before Him. The shout coming from Heaven is preparation
for the final shout found in 1
Thessalonians 4:16, “For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven
with a shout, with the voice of the archangel,
and with the trumpet call of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first.” (MEV)
I
challenge every believer to pray and fast! I believe that the Lord is giving us
an opportunity to change our world. We know that in Psalms 103 it says, “The Lord is merciful and gracious, slow to
anger, and abounding in mercy.” (MEV) Yet, we also know that in Psalms 7:11, “God is a righteous judge, and
God has indignation every day.” (MEV)
The
Lord is shouting! Are we listening?
Revelation 2:17, “He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the
churches. To him who overcomes I will give the hidden manna to eat. And I will give him a white stone, and on
the stone a new name written,
which no one knows except he who receives it.” (MEV) We must awaken. It is a new day! The Remnant is rising!
