Cascade Consultation

Dear Friends,

I want to give you the " heads up " on a meeting coming up Saturday, June 4th. The organization I am currently affiliated with is called International Fellowship of Ministries headed by Joe McIntyre. He and I have worked together on a number of occasions, mostly I have led worship during annual conferences... the most recent last October with Bill Johnson from Bethel Church in Redding CA.

I have also worked with Burdell Austin, the Washington State coordinator for a prayer network headed by Peter Wagner (Chuck Pierce and Dutch Sheets are also affiliated). We have been talking for many weeks regarding the redemptive prophetic gifts of Oregon and Washington (both have distinctive yet uniform qualities) and how leaders must coordinate and communicate with each other.

Burdell is gathering together Intercessors from throughout Washington and the Northwest for a meeting she is calling a Cascade Consultation. Because we've had some contact in working together, would you pray about joining us?

We will present our pieces of the puzzle and listen together regarding what the Lord is doing in our region, in our relationships, and in His strategy for the future.

I am sure you will meet wonderful and humble servants passionate about God's design and promise for the Northwest. I know this will be one of many such gatherings, and it would be wonderful if you could join us.

If you are interested in attending this event, please RSVP to Burdell (her email invitation follows), but please let me know as well.

Bless you,

Darrell

Greetings and many blessings to all of you,
The U.S. Strategic Prayer Network in Washington State www.globalharvestministries.org and Pacific Ministries www.pacificministriesblogspot.com/ in Oregon would like to invite each of you and your spouses to a Cascadia Consolation on June 4, 2005 from 10:00 am to 6:00 pm.
Pastor Joe McIntyre, USSPN WA Apostolic Coordinator, Burdell Austin, USSPN WA Mobilizing Coordinator, and Darrell Dahlman, Pacific Ministries President are hosting this discussion and prayer gathering at Word of His Grace in Bothell.

As you can see, Washington is pregnant with a fresh revelation of Christ Jesus and Oregon is pregnant with the mantle to overthrow the spirit of Jezebel. I know that British Columbia has been in travail over the sins of the land and very near birthing an unprecedented move of God, but I do not know the current prophetic words spoken over the Province. Fathering is a key word. God is speaking Life to us and the kingdom of darkness is vehemently opposing this. Our adversary would like to abort or cause miscarriage to keep these things from coming forth. Or he would like to drain out the life of these things once they begin to function and flourish.

I believe one possible way that this can be accomplished is through an earthquake/tsunami disaster beyond the time and degree that the Lord would measure in His work of judgment upon His adversaries and shaking the Church out of it's complacently. The door that allows the spirit of death to operate in our territory is still open, but many have been bringing it toward closure with repentance and intercession. Washington state was the first state to legislate a degree of abortion by demand and Oregon is the only state with a Physistian Assisted Suicide Law legislated by the people in the United States. These laws that embrace death have SELF WORSHIP at the roots. I have attached an interesting article entitled Jezebel's Affliction by Kriston Couchey.

Todd Bentley's "The Set Time" regarding warning of earthquake as God's judgment upon His adversaries and my article "Clarion Call to Avert West Coast Disaster" posted on www.ElijahList.com are not in conflict by cause us to seek the Lord for the wisdom of His ways and the ability to stand against the wiles of the devil. I believe Jezebel wants to "seal the vineyard" once again.

There is a need for corporate discussion to raise up a corporate strategy and anointing that is from God and not man. Darrell Dahlman has been seeking the Lord regarding the words released in Oregon and has been hearing from Him and has posted reports of the latest direction from the Lord on prayoregon@blogspot.com Complete transcripts of Dec. 2003 meetings are also posted there.

Darrell will be sharing with us on June 4 as well as Joe McIntyre who has extensive history and insight regarding the territorial spirit of Jezebel.

The bases of discussions will be on prophetic words regarding the Northwest (Oregon)Territory or Cascadia, especially focused on the following key words given by Chuck Pierce and Dutch Sheets in December 2003 while on 50 State Tour in WA and OR: Pregnant with fresh revelation of Christ Jesus AND mantle to overthrow Jezebel.
Chuck Pierce began on the evening of Dec. 14 at Sonrise Chapel in Everett after the sound of many shofars were released with this sentence:
"I would say to you there is a great harvest in the midst of this State, and I am about to put an urgency and a passion in my people."
About 3/4 of the way through Chuck's talk he says, "One of the reasons that the West Coast is important, at the beginning of the year (2003), the Lord said, 'I start blowing My revival wind from the west' He said, "so this year, you prepare the way for the wind, and then next year the wind will blow.' I knew at that point the Lord was saying all the way up California, and then I saw something, from N. California, through Oregon, up through Washington, all the way into Vancouver, B.C. I've never shared this before. I saw something, it was like....you couldn't see what was under you. It was like you had one level of foundation, but your foundation wasn't deep enough. And especially from N. California on. And the Lord said, 'There's a new wave coming.' And I said, Lord, what's the wave? And He said, "It will be both a wave of evil, that will try to effect that region, but it's also a wave of my Spirit.' and He said, 'They've not built the foundation in that area to handle the wave.' And then I woke up and I actually saw a wave. I saw water hitting, and you weren't capable of dealing with the wave of the Spirit that God was going to bring in days ahead. So the Lord said, 'You declare that the wind, that will produce the wave will begin, but you pave the way for it. And then you declare that the foundation that needs to be built for what is ahead, be built from N. California through Vancouver, B.C. and it is just really clear, up in that area, up there. There is just such a heart of God for one of the key awakenings and outpourings of the Spirit of God for this region. It will shake this entire continent. NOW HERE ME! What God wants to do from N. California up through Vancouver, B.C. will shake this continent!"

Please RSVP to me as soon as possible. Thank you.

May Update for Pacificministries

Dear Friends of PacificMinistries,

Almost seven years ago, I was meditating on Psalm 46.

God is our refuge and strength,an ever-present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea, though its waters roar and foam and the mountains quake with their surging. There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God, the holy place where the Most High dwells. God is within her, she will not fall; God will help her at break of day. Nations are in uproar, kingdoms fall; he lifts his voice, the earth melts. The LORD Almighty is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress...."Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted in the earth."

The Holy Spirit began to highlight several thematic phrases which eventually became a song: Be Still. The writer of Psalm 46 begins with a declaration of trust and confidence in God, despite trouble, natural disaster, and nations in an uproar. I believe the Lord interrupts with his own quiet voice to remind us to "still" ourselves. Needless to say, I have sung that song often.

There have been many prophetic words spoken from well-respected national personalities concerning both the pain and promise of God's coming judgment and mercy. It is in all our hearts desire to remain confident in God's promise to be our refuge and strength. Our job is to rest. Our calling is to be still; and remind ourselves that he is God and He will be exalted among the nations and in the earth. Our confidence does not rest in our ability to accurately discern the times or seasons. Our confidence and trust remains solely in our ability to rest.

Some years ago, the band Delirious wrote a song entitled: Find Me In The River. Following is a portion of their lyrics:

Find me in the river...Find me on my knees

I've walked against the water Now I'm waiting if you please

We've longed to see the roses...But never felt the thorns

And bought our pretty crowns....But never paid the price

Find me in the river....Find me there

Find me on my knees with my soul laid bare

Even though you're gone and I'm cracked and dry

Find me in the river, I'm waiting here.....

This Sunday evening at 6:00, you'll find a group of people who are hungry and thirsty for an encounter with Jesus. We do not have a full understanding of what God is doing... but we are declaring our dependence and resolve to "Be Still and Know... He is God."

You are invited to join us.

Darrell
