2016

Have you heard about the new movie called "2016"? http://2016themovie.com/

If you can possibly go see it--GO! It will give you the information you need to make an informed decision for this crucial upcoming Presidential election!

This movie will take you... on a gripping visual journey into the heart of the world’s most powerful office to reveal the struggle of whether one man's past will redefine America over the next four years. The film examines the question, "If Obama wins a second term, where will we be in 2016?" Across the globe and in America, people in 2008 hungered for a leader who would unite and lift us from economic turmoil and war. True to America’s ideals, they invested their hope in a new kind of president, Barack Obama. What they didn't know is that Obama is a man with a past, and in powerful ways that past defines him--who he is, how he thinks, and where he intends to take America and the world... Emotionally engaging, 2016 Obama’s America will make you confounded and cheer as you discover the mysteries and answers to your greatest aspirations and worst fears.[Excerpt from http://2016themovie.com/]
The second thing I would exhort everyone to do is, of course, PRAY! The youtube video below tells of an exciting worship and prayer event occurring right in front of the White House for 40 days before the election! 


To complete my exhortation, please VOTE on Tuesday, November 6.

--Beloved--GO! PRAY! and VOTE for righteousness!
  

Days of Awe

Open to me the gates of righteousness: I will go into them, [and] I will praise the LORD: - Psalm 118:19 KJV

  At the end of July I heard the Lord speak within my spirit that these are the Days of Awe--that Heaven was open and He heard our prayers!
I have studied the Feasts of the Lord mainly by reading Edward Chumney's book, The Seven Festivals of the Messiah, and I knew that it was not quite time for the actual ten days designated as 'The Days of Awe'~~

A special season known as Teshuvah, which in Hebrew means "to return or repent," begins on the first day of the month of Elul and continues 40 days, ending with Yom Kippur. Thirty days into Teshuvah, on Tishrei 1, comes Rosh HaShanah. This begins a final ten-day period beginning on Rosh HaShanah and ending on Yom Kippur. These are known as the High Holy Days and as the Awesome Days (Yamim Nora'im, the days of awe). [Page 95 excerpt, The Seven Festivals of the Messiah by Edward Chumney http://www.hebroots.com/index.htm]

I had a knowing within myself that my Savior was encouraging me to seek Him all the more earnestly in these coming days leading up to Rosh Hashanah. I believe our Heavenly Father through His beautiful Son is extending His sceptre of gracious favor in these days to hear us. This 'hearing' is more intense now or perhaps the intensity is in getting our attention to SEEK HIM with all our heart, soul, and mind.
Recently, I have been receiving confirmation of my dreams and rhemas from a Sister in the Lord, Susan O'Marra. In her August 16 post, she shares what the Lord spoke to her regarding the days preceding Rosh Hashanah which you can read by clicking below~~

In The Image Of His Glory Ministries: A Time Of Consecration Has Come

The gates of Heaven are opened so the righteous nation may enter! (Isaiah 26:2; Psalm 118:19-20)

Healed!

My life, like so many other people's lives, is filled with the everyday humdrum. Take for example my morning exercise regime of using the treadmill. I crank up the worship music or watch an old classic movie as I tread away. Earlier this week as I climbed aboard, I flipped on the TV and caught the tail end of It's Supernatural, a show hosted by a Messianic believer named Sid Roth.

Sid had been interviewing David Herzog who was commissioned by the Lord to teach on His Glory. I felt a glorious shift in the spiritual atmosphere at one point (before Sid Roth mentioned it) and David began to call out healings along with Sid and exhorting people to jump up and down as an act of faith as they took hold of them. I turned off the treadmill as soon as healings were called out because I believed my Heavenly Father's goodness would overflow onto me.

When healing in the right rotator cuff was spoken, I jumped for joy and rotated my right arm excited for I believed in my heart He would heal scar tissue that had formed there. I continued my treadmill exercises and stretched afterwards noticing that indeed my shoulder felt better.
The next morning, as her manner is, my daughter Rachel massaged my right shoulder before sitting down to eat her breakfast.

"Check to see if there's any scar tissue back there," I asked.
"Hey! I can't find it!" she replied.
My husband Tom came over and he verified it as I told them what had happened to me the day before. We all celebrated God's continued faithfulness!

But without faith [it is] impossible to please [him]: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and [that] he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. - Hebrews 11:6 KJV

Let me encourage you to diligently seek Him IN YOUR HEART, SOUL, AND MIND. I pray that faith will arise in you and in me as well! Although I have seen miracles in my life and even in others who I have ministered to, I still struggle with unbelief at times. I continuously pray that He will help my unbelief as he did the father of the child in Mark--And straightway the father of the child cried out, and said with tears, Lord, I believe; help thou mine unbelief. - Mark 9:24 KJV
   

I encourage anyone who reads this to watch it here on my blog (http://lynmelvin.blogspot.com/) or look for it on youtube.com where it is entitled, "David Herzog on It's Supernatural with Sid Roth--The Glory Zone". Then please post a comment to let me know what happened.

He is faithful!
 
Then touched he their eyes, saying, According to your faith be it unto you. - Matthew 9:29 KJV

The Coming Wave of GLORY

And he said unto the disciples...For as the lightning, that lighteneth out of the one [part] under heaven, shineth unto the other [part] under heaven; so shall also the Son of man be in his day...And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man.
They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all. Luke 17:22-27 in part


It is always a thrill and an honor to hear from Heaven. We should never take for granted what we hear or see in the secret place. I think I am writing this as a reminder to myself more than to any one who might be reading it.

I began to worship Him one morning recently, and a song from a couple of decades ago came up into my spirit so I sang it to Him. “Be glorified in the heavens! Be glorified in the earth! Be glorified in this temple!”

It is the sincere desire of my heart that the Lord of All be lifted up and that my life magnifies Him. As the time drew near that I would have to head down to the kitchen, I asked for a word of encouragement and in His graciousness this is what I believe He said:

The days of this Earth as you have known it will pass away and a great wave of My glory will wash over the world. Just as in the days of Noah, My wave will engulf the world and there will be those who will enter the ark of Jesus Christ and be saved and those who will choose not to enter and will perish.

Are you also anticipating the Wave of Glory?
 

My Bonnie Friend

                               That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life. - John 3:15 KJV

This past Sunday, May 27, marked Pentecost. It also was the day when my dear friend, Bonnie, fell asleep in death. She was a handmaiden of the Lord Jesus Christ who had bravely raised two sons on her own after becoming a widow and who had heroically battled cancer never taking her eyes off of the King of Glory.

Her youngest son called me that same day to inform me of the severe downturn in her health neither of us realizing just how close to the end she was. As we spoke, I remembered a time several years ago when I had linked hands with members of the little country church we fellowshipped with to intercede for a brother who was dying of a brain tumor. "The grass withereth, and the flower thereof falleth away: But the word of the Lord endureth forever," I quoted in part from 1 Peter 1:24-25 KJV. It was the verse that came into my spirit so I spoke it out. "I believe the Spirit of the Lord is saying that although this brother’s time to rest has come, the word of God that he has spoken will not fall to the ground."

This was the first time I had ever prayed in this manner for someone who was sick. I fellowshipped with Holy Spirit-filled people who believed in healing and who never gave up on the possibility of a miracle and I had been of the same mindset. I could sense that the others I was praying with were not in agreement with what I said and continued to pray for our friend’s healing; but I believed, for the first time in my life, that the Spirit of the Lord was saying that this good brother’s fight was over. Sadly, he did go to his eternal rest only days later.

The last time I talked with Bonnie she had been flown to a city in the Midwest where a group of brethren supplied her with housing and food and a peaceful room adjacent to the sanctuary where she could be ministered to and soak in the presence of Almighty Yahweh. “I’m doing what you said, Lyn.” Her voice sounded otherworldly yet joyful and light as she told me where she was and what she was doing. Although back at her hotel room when we spoke, she was still afloat in God’s river of love, but what had I said to her? I couldn’t remember even though I had talked to her only about a week before. “Remember, you spoke to me that the Lord said I should rest—that I had been mother and father and had done enough. Rest, rest, rest, you said.”

As I shared this with her son, he told me that he had said the same thing to her—that she had done enough and that she should simply rest. “I didn’t realize then that the Lord was referring to eternal rest.” I said remembering how I was taught that when the Lord repeats something three times, it is to indicate that something is complete. Even though she was still alive as we spoke, we both believed her time of struggle was coming to an end even though we had both sought the Lord for a miracle. 

Bonnie and I became friends while attending services at the same church for some years. At one point she began to attend a different fellowship. Although she moved in a different circle then, she stood by me through a terrible ordeal. I’ll never forget how she showed up at my doorstep by the leading of the Holy Spirit. She had no natural knowledge of what was going on but knew by the Spirit that I desperately needed her friendship and prayerful support.

"I wish that I had gotten to know her better," I said to my husband because we had moved to another state and Bonnie and I talked less frequently. But then I thought on how as sisters in Christ we were both born of incorruptible seed--the promise of life everlasting--and that we have an eternity to get to know one another better.
Hallelu-Yah!
