28 Day - See Past Poverty!!: Day 1 - Feb 01, 2010

Dear Friends:   

I just left Ché Ahn's Prophetic Seer Conference in Pasadena.  The meetings were incredible. Chad Foxworth and I took the "red eye" flight out of Los Angeles and have just landed in Dallas. Beginning today is the new Devotional Series, 28 Days to See Your Way into Victory!  Devotions and Prayer Focus to Release you to See Your Future!  We begin this week by entering into and allowing the Lord to open our eyes so we may SEE!  Seeing is a prophetic dimension that allows you to gain the revelation you need to advance into your future. Without prophetic revelation a people perish. This is a season to SEE before we HEAR! Get ready for your eyes to be opened!   

My dear friends in California, Marilyn and Glenn Noorda, just sent this picture (which was taken yesterday) of their Almond Tree.   If you did not hear Robert Heidler's message yesterday, please go to our website and choose The Power of Use Service – on demand replay.  Robert explains how the almond tree is the first tree that blossoms, representing the change in season.  This tree also represents the power of watching. The Lord is watching to perform His Word.  Let us begin this season of AYIN 5770 by seeing the performance of our promises.   

As we enter this season of SEEING, let us be like Jeremiah as the Lord asked him, "What do you see?"  He answered, "I see an almond tree!" Look below ... start this season by seeing the almond tree and watching for the performance of His Word! Below the image of the tree is the first day of devotions. The Lord instructed me to help us "see" better.  In the process of seeing, we see our enemy in a new way. He showed me a three-fold spiritual force set against us! This evil structure consists of poverty, infirmity, and self-pity.  These spirits work together in an attempt to blind and stop us from seeing the Lord's best in our lives. Let’s begin to SEE, and then turn aside to LOOK as the Lord manifests Himself to us in new way. Enter into Day 1!

The Church is in an incredible season of change, and I believe we are all sensing those changes in us and around us. I can hear the Lord saying to us, “What you seed will begin to produce great fruit.” There is a grace for our offerings to multiply - thirty to a hundredfold. This is a season to gain victory through giving in order to break the curse of robbing God. Ayin not only means to see, but the word means to BUD FORTH! I declare that in this year and season ahead, you will see everything you have seeded, and everything you do seed, multiply, blossom and bud forth!

Cry out for an open heaven over your life, family, territory, business, and ministry. Ask the Lord to shine His Light on all darkness so you can see! If the windows of heaven open, every dark spiritual force that has trapped us in the past will flee. When the Heavens open, the Earth comes into a divine realignment.  When heavens open, man worships and God renews covenant with man and the earth. Man’s authority activates God’s power! He then wars on our behalf!  We need a wind of change from an open heaven to blow upon us and produce victory! Victory is the defeat of an enemy or opponent. Victory occurs when we gain success in a struggle against some difficulty or some obstacle that is impeding our path!  Victory is the state of having triumphed.

One cycle that I feel we must break is linked to the spirit of poverty. In a materialistic society, this spirit tends to blind us from seeing the will of God. We must declare victory over the spirit of poverty! This spirit has violated God’s perfect order and produced instability in many individuals. I feel that the Lord is saying that we need to take a violent and passionate stand on behalf of the Body of Christ concerning this spirit—that we must press through difficulties and storms to force an atmospheric change.

I declare that any atmosphere of poverty encircling around you or your sphere of authority will be invaded with the atmosphere of blessing and glory from heaven. See His glory and then see how poverty is speaking to you. The Body of Christ needs to see restoration in our provision! Restoration is always linked with multiplication. Debt and past financial defeats in our lives need to reverse. Any spirit of poverty that has held our generational bloodlines in captivity and kept us from the fullness of the prosperity that God has for us must be broken. The Lord is breaking the power of begging in His people. He is making us a people of faith. He will change the identity of His people from beggars to kings! Ask HIM to reveal POVERTY now. See how poverty works in your life. Tomorrow we will continue.

Read Genesis 6-8…Noah found favor in His EYE. The heavens and earth realign.

Meditate on Genesis 45, especially verse 11—“There I will provide for you, lest you and your household, and all that you have, come to poverty; for there are still five years of famine."' (NKJV) 

Memorize Proverbs 11:24.There is one who scatters, yet increases more; And there is one who withholds more than is right…But it leads to poverty.” (NKJV)
