Worship at the River Watchmen at the River
Newsletter of Pacific Ministries’ monthly meetings March, 2008
at Glenn Otto Community Park, Troutdale, Oregon.
Our God receives our prayer and prophetic proclamation; we are, in Him:
~ strong in the spiritual battle with spiritual generals,
~ sending the spiritual to the nations,
~ bringing nations to prayer,
~ changing the nations!
From humble surroundings in Troutdale, and a humble heart before the God of the Universe,
To the ex-mayor of Seoul, Korea, one who is respected and highly influential,
A voice of righteousness, sharing the love, truth and grace of our God,
A man of God, Darrell, is a man of obedience to the call of God;
we are a people of God and are also obedient to His call,
of deep, profound and powerful prayer.
We follow the Lord and watch expectantly,
for what He is doing among men and women, and children too!
Testimony of Healing
Delight (a beautiful name ever reminding us of our delight in Christ!)
- problem - a car accident that left severe neck problems; even with two pillows sleep has
been difficult and arm movement was impared.
- healing - There was specific prayer for Delight last month; God healed Delight’s neck
so completely that sleeping with pillows was not necessary and arm movement is greatly improved!
Let everything that has breath praise the Lord!
Stretching forth our hearts, hands, arms, voices and banners, in affirmations of faith ~
We want to be a thankful people, Lord. We worship you.
Sing to the Lord a new song; declare His glory.
Let us shout and glorify His Name.
Great is the Lord; you are worthy of all praise.
The Almighty declares, “I’m reigning above all nations.”
Prophetic word:
1. We’re moving into kingdom authority through gratitude.
2. There will be the healing of minds and bodies.
3. There will be greater laughter, unity and freedom to lift His Name high.
4. There will be joy, in the spiritual awakening of our nation.
5. Generations will be blessed ~ children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
6. One generation will declare to another that the Lord has done great things.
7. We are brothers and sisters in Christ; we are robed in righteousness and
perfecting grace of Christ, as His bride.
The Spirit and the Bride say, “Come!”
The banner over all of this is His love, cleansing love.
We are soaking in the Presence.
We receive from the Holy Spirit ~ the ministry of the Spirit,
through the wind of the banner, (which is love!)
The voice of His song ~ the instruments of His grace.
Prophetic word:
1. Take the tests and trials and turn them into joy.
2. All things will be made new.
3. There will be a softening, a whispering of His comfort.
“Come to me, all you who are weary.
Come to me, all you who are burdened.
I will give you rest; you are not mistakes.
You are not orphans anymore; sons and daughters you are.
There is a rest for sons and daughters; you do not have to strive anymore.
Understanding who we are in Christ ~ free sons and daughters,
we can leave the backpacks we carry, those that are filled with the unnecessary.
Jesus, lover of my soul, I will follow You.
The Lord wants to remove the lies and give us new names.
He wants to honor Himself in us and through us.
~ A sign for surrender ~ Our hands at the shoulders, with fingers bent,
move upward and opening, ~ to let everything fall into His hands.
We want to let go and rest in your loving arms.
In your light, we see light; in your arms, we find rest.
We will rest in your arms and be at rest.
Soaking ~ find a quiet place to be alone with the Lord ~ ask Him to be with you.
Listen to the things He shares; take time to soak in His Presence.
“ ‘See, I will send my messenger, who will prepare the way before me. Then suddenly the Lord you are seeking will come to His temple; the messenger of the covenant, whom you desire, will come,’ says the Lord Almighty. But who can endure the day of His coming? Who can stand when He appears? For He will be like a refiner’s fire or a launderer’s soap. He will sit as a refiner and purifier of silver: He will purify the Levites and refine them like gold and silver. Then the Lord will have men who will bring offerings in righteousness, and the offerings of Judah and Jerusalem will be acceptable to the Lord, as in days gone by, as in former years.”
Malachi 3:1-4
A banner of iridescence ~ a fire, refining silver and gold.
in the refining process, we will bring offerings of righteousness.
“ ‘But you who revere my Name, the sun of righteousness will rise with healing in its wings. And you will go out and leap like calves released from the stall. Then you will trample down the wicked they will be ashes under the soles of your feet on the day when I do these things.’ says the Lord Almighty.” Malachi 4:2,3
Releasing our hold on the name we have carried,
we receive the new name God pours over us, rejoicing in the joy of His blessing.
The Lord is blowing the Shofar over us ~
For the Spirit of Intercession.
Pressing into Scripture, releasing healing – (facing separation anxiety)
“For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons,
neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth,
nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us
from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” Romans 8:38,39
Leading by example ~
Lay down the script, the plans prepared,
Trust the Lord for His Word for His people.
Trust Him for prophetic preaching.
Pray for each other as opportunities arise for ministry.
“The Spirit of the Sovereign Lord is on me,
because the Lord has appointed me to preach good news to the poor.
He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim freedom for the captives,
and release from darkness for the prisoners,
to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor and the day of vengeance of our God,
to comfort all who mourn and provide for those who grieve in Zion,
to bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of gladness instead of mourning.
and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair.
They will be called oaks of righteousness, a planting of the Lord for the display of His splendor.
They will rebuild the ancient ruins and restore the places long devastated;
they will renew the ruined cities that have been devastated for generations.”
Isaiah 61:1-4
Prophetic words over Darrell and Carlene:
1. You have divinely inspired influences; in the Spirit you are dancing on iniquity
2. You are magnets of strength together; a new door in a harvest basket of righteousness.
3. Jacob sent gifts ahead to Esau; Christ’s body in South Korea is Jacob and North Korea is Esau; Darrell and Carlene are a part of the Lord’s gift in the harvest basket.
“Jacob looked up and there was Esau, coming with his four hundred men; so he divided the children among Leah, Rachel, and the two maidservants. He put the maidservants and their children in front, Leah and her children next and Rachel and Joseph in the rear. He himself went on ahead and bowed down to the ground seven times as he approached his brother. But Esau ran to meet Jacob and embraced him; he threw his arms around his neck and kissed him. And they wept.” Genesis 33:1-4
