Command Me

God's been doing something unexpected. Last week I had 2 occasions to pray for people to be healed on the same day. One was a co-worker, one was a patient. As I felt God's presence show up, I began a dialogue with Him about what He wanted to do. "I want to heal", came His first words. I thought, "cool, let's do it." I asked God what he wanted me to do. He said "Command me."

Uhhh...did you say "command me"? I pretended like I didn't understand what God was saying, but I knew exactly what He meant. I was entering into a new phase of prayer, and I didn't like where it was going. I balked at His suggestion and we had a long discussion about it. The problem was my perception of our relationsip. I thought, "you're God, and I'm not. It's your job to be the boss. My job is to follow your lead and ask for healing. I don't command God to do anything, you are the one who commands me." So went my line of reasoning. The discussion lasted for several hours. God explained to me an important thing I was missing. When His presence (glory) shows up, He wants to do something. I can't assume I know what it is bacause I've been wrong before. It's up to Him to tell me what He wants to do and how it gets done. After He tells me what He wants to do, I ask, "what do you want me to do?" Usually He says "pray with them" or something like it. But God can tell me what ever He wants, He doesn't always heal in the same way. Jesus healed people in many different ways. God dosen't care much for our formulas.

Here was what God told me: "If I tell you I want to heal, trust me, I will do it. If I want you to command healing - just do it. Walk over and put your hand on the injured place and command the injury to be healed. Moses commanded me. Elijah commanded me. I want you to command me." As I heard Him speak, I knew what He was referring to. Moses called down one plague after another upon Egypt until pharaoh had seen enough. But Moses had prior information about what God's will was in freeing the Israelites. He knew what God wanted him to do. So he commanded the Lord with confidence. (See Exodus 7) Elijah had a similar experience. In his showdown at Mt. Carmel against the false prophets of Baal, he called down fire from heaven. He commanded God, because he knew what God wanted to do. (See 1 Kings 18:38)

When God said, "command me." He was simply trying to change my perception of our relationship. I tend to see our relationship as servant and master, and in a sense it is. But its more than that. In John 15:15, Jesus said, "I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master's business. Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that I learned from my Father I have made known to you." In the last year, God has asked me to come closer to him. To spend more and more time meditating on Him and His plans. He's encouraged me to ask the kind of questions I'd always been afraid to ask. He always answers my questions straight forwardly. He wants me (and you) to know the details of His plans for our lives. The key is being close enough to God to "know His business."

Make no mistake, our personal issues must be dealt with first. Moses spent 40 years as God dealt with his attitude. God is working out of me a lot of my issues, too. But as we grow in obedience to God, (as the servant) He treats us not as servants but friends. Let's go one step further. The bible actually describes our relationship with God in terms many of us don't feel worthy of. We are seated in the heavenly kingdom with Jesus and joint-heirs with him of that kingdom. (Romans 8:17 and Ephesians 2:6)

God has called us to rule both in this present age and in the ages to come. How are we to do this? My idea of ruling and enforcing God's will in my sphere is often a lot of whining, whimpering and begging God to do something. Its my Calvinist world-view coming to the surface. When I'm feeling down and defeated and it seems as though I've made a hopeless mess of things, its comforting to reflect on God's sovereignty. When I'm confused about why something happened, I lean of the fact that God does what he wants for his own reasons. The determinism of Calvinism can be comforting. But it leaves us powerless.

God wants us to interact with him as we rule with Him. That's the idea of being a co-heir with Christ. We need to seek the mind of the Lord, find out what He wants to do in a situation and declare what His will is. I'm learning that making declarations that are consistent with God's will is a powerful way to pray. I had a shocking example of this a few days ago.

My daughter asked me to proof read an essay she wrote for school. She's 16 and a decent writer, but she doesn't write at the level of an adult. As I read her essay I was stunned. I couldn't believe she had written the essay she handed me. It seemed like it had been written by someone working on their Master's degree. She strung together one complex idea after another in a very compelling argument. She cited many resources and used terms I'd never even heard of. What happened?

Declarations happened. I've been praying for God to give her wisdom, knowledge, and favor in her studies. Every night at her bedside I make declarations over her. Yes, I do ask for some things, but just as often, I make declarations of what I know God wants to do for her. God has been doing all the things I had asked for and declared - and I wasn't even aware of it until I read her paper. Funny thing - How many of us take these things seriously before God? I think He wants to do a lot more than we realize.

I knew about God's desire for me to command healing before He told me to do it. Kim Clement prophesied about us commanding God in this season. I wondered when the time would come for God to ask me to do it. In October of last year, Kim gave this prophetic word:

"Take this next week and I want you to begin to command Me. You say, how can we command the Lord? God says command Me. Do not pray, do not weep, do not beseech, do not repent. I want you to command. For this storm that you are in must be steered in the right direction. Therefore, I say command Me. And I will blind your enemies, I will blind your adversary, I will bring blindness to your problems. I will bring blindness to your adversary who is approaching you to take you and to shake you. God says, I will enlighten the eyes of this nation, I will bring light. In a twinkling of an eye there shall be a change. As I speak it and this is My word tonight says the Lord."
October 26, 2008 - Humble, TX

I believe its time for us to step up to a higher level. God is calling us to command healing and to declare his will. He has given us authority to represent Him. He is weary of our powerless life. (Aren't we?) If God tells you or I to pray or command healing - He's going to make sure it happens. We need to put fear and unbelief behind us.

I'm learning to deal with my fear and unbelief. I'm leaving a life of skepticism and starting to believe in divine healing. I'm starting over and I don't have that much faith. A few days ago I began reading the thickest book I've ever seen. It's about the life of John G. Lake. Almost 1,000 pages of sermons, testimonies of healing, and his personal diary. He had what was arguably the greatest healing ministry since Jesus. He walked in a closeness with God I can only hope to emulate. He has become my modern day role model. I study the way in which Jesus did ministry, so did Lake. I'm going to try to follow The Lord in the way Lake did. Reading about the miracles others have performed gives my small faith a big boost. I hope one day soon I'll be writing stories of God's love being displayed through healing on a daily basis.

I'm asking you to join me in this pursuit. It's my conviction that any of us can command healing, work in miracles, prophesy, or function in any of the spiritual gifts listed in 1 Cor. 12: 8-11. It's the Holy Spirit who is operating through us, as He wills to do it. If He wants you to prophesy one day, heal the next, and give a word of knowledge next week, why would you want to stand in the way? Cooperating with God allows Him to bless others through us.

A Prophetic Word on Medicine

A short time ago I posted part of Kim Clement's prophecy from Humble, Texas with my own commentary on it. There is much more about medical breakthroughs in that prophecy. In this post, Kim offers his own observations. The purpose of his ministry is to tell us in advance what God is up to and what we can expect in the near future. I saw him in Auburn, Washington last year. His high-energy music and powerful prophetic insight is unmatched. He’s returning to Washington in a few weeks, and I’m sure he’ll bring more encouraging words for the Northwest area. Here’s the info about his visit:

"Now is the Time to Exercise Dominion Over the Earth and Discover Its Secrets"

Prophets. They are the villains of today and the heroes of tomorrow. They do predict the future, but even more importantly, they deal with the present as it pertains to the future, not the future as it pertains to the present. Prophets prophesy. Prophecy is the voice that God has lent to the silent agony, a voice to the plundered poor, to the profane riches of the world. He sustains us not by bread alone but by the words that proceed out of His mouth.

Over the past few years, I have been driven by the Spirit of the Holy God to look into God's "other door," if you wish. I found myself seeing all kinds of miracles, not divine or supernatural, but rather miracles in the Earth, the soil, and the creatures of the sea. I gazed into this treasure-filled room and realized that my prophetic gift was not necessarily to predict the future only, but to save the future. After prophesying a number of times over the past several years about various cures coming from the Earth, fish, dolphins, etc., I found that my discourse was not in vain, and actually quite Scriptural, to my relief.

"And Elisha returned to Gilgal, and there was a famine in the land. Now the sons of the prophets were sitting before him; and he said to his servant, 'Put on the large pot, and boil stew for the sons of the prophets.' So one went out into the field to gather herbs, and found a wild vine, and gathered from it a lapful of wild gourds, and came and sliced them into the pot of stew, though they did not know what they were.

"Then they served it to the men to eat. Now it happened, as they were eating the stew, that they cried out and said, 'Man of God, there is death in the pot!' And they could not eat it. So he said, 'Then bring some flour.' And he put it into the pot, and said, 'Serve it to the people, that they may eat.' And there was nothing harmful in the pot." (2 Kings 4:38-41)

Elisha is with the sons of the prophets and had instructed his servant to "put on the large pot, and boil stew for the sons of the prophets." They gathered herbs and found a wild vine and gathered from it a lapful of wild gourds. (A gourd is a typically large fleshy fruit with a hard skin.) They sliced them into the pot of stew and as they began to eat, they suddenly realized that there was death in the pot. Instead of being nourished, they were eating poison, and instead of Elisha calling 911, he confronted the circumstance with a solution. He never prayed for divine healing, but instead he said, "Bring some flour" and he put it into the pot and there was nothing harmful left in the pot. God showed Elisha where to combat or negate the poison in the pot.

I got excited as I read this and realized that he had created a formula to combat the death and poison, and I believe that this is part and parcel of the prophetic mantle. I believe we have entered into this era again and this aspect of prophetic insight is about to be restored to the world.

Earth. We live on it, feed off it, are nurtured by it and basically, we are alive because of this big round ball, and yet some people have no expectations from it other than disasters and judgment. I speak of a large percentage of Charismatic Christians, or those with extreme religious persuasions. If we show the slightest interest in the preservation, upkeep or nurturing of the Earth, we are labeled as "new age believers," whatever that's supposed to mean. The Earth is home to millions of species, including humans, and is the only place in the universe where life is known to exist.

Since the very moment that life appeared on its surface, Earth's biosphere has significantly altered the atmosphere and other abiotic conditions on the planet, enabling the proliferation of aerobic organisms, as well as the formation of the ozone layer, which together with the Earth's magnetic field, blocks harmful radiation, permitting life on land. Most importantly is the fact that the Earth is the third planet from the Sun and is the largest of the terrestrial planets in the Solar System, in diameter, mass and density.

"Then God blessed them, and God said to them, 'Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it; have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over every living thing that moves on the earth.'" (Genesis 1:28)
I love Earth. I have great expectations from it and according to my Gospel, I am expected to fill the Earth, have dominion over ALL of it, subdue it, have dominion over the fish of the sea, the birds of the air, and every living thing that moves on the Earth. How do you have dominion over fish? To take a net and catch fish or to take a gun and shoot a bird is NOT having dominion over them. If I follow Christ and how He dealt with the Earth and all it's moving parts, I realize that the dominion God was speaking about was for our betterment and to use in combat. Most people can't even imagine that mankind would have this power but it's the truth.

Can a fish bring healing? Apparently, it can. Fish oil is derived from the tissues of oily fish. Fish oil is now recommended for a healthy diet because it contains the omega-3 fatty acids and various acids that reduce inflammation throughout the body. Oddly enough, fish do not actually produce omega-3 acids, but instead they accumulate them by consuming micro-algae that produce these fatty acids. Even these fish, that we obtain this beneficial medicine from, play their part in "subduing" other fish like mackerel, lake trout, flounder and salmon, all in God's original pronouncement of "dominion."

In September 2005, a study from the Louisiana State University found that fish oil assisted in protecting the brain from cognitive problems associated with Alzheimer's disease. A study from the Orygen Research Centre in Melbourne, Australia suggests that omega-3 fatty acids could also help prevent or delay the onset of schizophrenia.

My point is that the living creatures of the Earth have more inside of them than a delicious meal. Over the past 3 years, I have been prophesying about the fact that there would be radical cures for Alzheimer's disease, brain disorders, various forms of cancer, Aids and other crippling diseases. Coupled with these prophetic statements were puzzling things like, "look to the sea, the whales, dolphins, etc." God was sharing with me the fact that I was to reveal the deep secrets of His original plan, which is for us to TAKE dominion and subdue.

Jesus used this power to assist in the payment of taxes. Instead of the fish being a meal, it was now a completely different instrument - a mini bank. Read what happened, dear warriors. Jesus said Peter, "Go to the lake and throw out your line. Take the first fish you catch; open its mouth and you will find a silver coin. Take it to the officials and give it to them for My tax and yours."

I enjoy reading this because you will notice that Peter was the one who threw his line out for the fish and it was Peter's taxes that were taken care of—no one else's. Many of my prophetic words have been about the Earth yielding its produce to us, as opposed to God dropping it from Heaven. Recently in Houston, Texas, God uttered something through my mouth regarding a fascinating healing secret. Because I went ahead and prophesied it, something that has been uncovered will now be discovered.

Healing from Berries

Prophesied on December 14, 2008, in Humble, Texas:

"And they shall say, 'Do not touch this plant, it is poisonous; it contains a deadly poison.'" And God said, "They shall say, 'You cannot eat that; you cannot consume it.' But that which once brought death by consumption will actually bring life and energy," says the Spirit of God. "For a plant - for it shall come from a soil - that a thing that would kill the human being, in a tree," God said, "so it shall bring a cure to many cancers," says the Spirit of God. Why would I tell you this?

"For it is time for the prophets to get above all of these fears and all of these commandments that they give. My prophets must begin to prophesy the cures that will come to the human bodies. My prophets must prophesy the cures that must come," for God said, "did I not tell you to go and cleanse the leper? There is leprosy out there. Alzheimer's disease is leprosy," says the Spirit of God.

"I command you to cleanse the lepers. And therefore the prophets will prophesy that from the earth shall come healings, and it shall begin to manifest. Even though some of those have already happened, the next year I will show you great things, because a revival of healing from the earth shall take place," says the Lord. "A revival of the healing from the earth shall take place!" Now berries, these are berries, berries - poisonous - shall bring healing.

Berries? Yes, berries. Could it be that simple? Think about penicillin. On September 28, 1928, Dr. Fleming was at his laboratory in the basement of St. Mary's Hospital in London, where he noticed a halo of inhibition of bacterial growth around a contaminant blue-green mold and concluded the mold was releasing a substance that was inhibiting bacterial growth. It was the Penicillium mold. Today there is family that came from Penicillin; ampicillin, flucloxacillin, diclosacillin and methicillin. So when various strains of infections emerged, other forms of penicillin were developed.

I am trying to show you that one discovery can do more than simply cure one disease; it can also develop and combat other emerging forces.

The Earth has all We Need for Healing, Energy and Prosperity

Why we find it "strange" that God would be directing me and other prophets in the Kingdom of Heaven—to speak to the Earth and the sky—is incomprehensible. Jesus spoke to the wind and the water and it obeyed. Water is for the purpose of drinking to quench thirst and has many healing agencies in it. Of all things, nobody expected Christ to turn it into wine for another purpose altogether - a wedding celebration!

Today, scientists have not only suggested, but also proven, that red wine has healing agencies. Although excessive alcohol consumption has adverse health effects, epidemiological studies have consistently demonstrated that moderate consumption of wine is statistically associated with a reduced risk of death due to cardiovascular events such as heart failure. Red wine contains polyphenols, and these are particularly protective against cardiovascular disease. A chemical in red wine called resveratrol has been shown to have both cardio-protective and chemo-protective effects. One study concluded that wine made from the Cabernet Sauvignon grape reduces the risk of Alzheimer's disease. Again, excessive consumption has adverse health and mental effects and the reason for my writing this is to make a very valid point.

The Church excessively condemns certain "sins," while blatantly excusing other "sins." Gluttony and obesity are ignored, while healthy consumption of wine is condemned. Jesus knew what He was doing when He turned the water into wine. He would never feed human beings something that was in fact sinful and harmful. The problem is not what the soil produces, but our addictions and lack of control. Is eating bread with mayonnaise wrong? NO. The wrong happens when greed takes over and instead of enjoying one slice with a small portion, you eat five thick slices. I think you understand.

Jesus Christ spoke to the tree, to the wind and water and spoke of signs in the skies. He took a few loaves of bread and multiplied them to feed thousands. My conviction is that the Earth has all that we need for healing, energy and our prosperity, but it is waiting to uncover its treasures. We, as a people, have the power of the Word and His Spirit to guide us to discover these hidden treasures. I am excited about the future of America and the many Nations who are pressing forward and demanding a demonstration of power and dominion from the Believers. Now is the time. It's time for us to exercise dominion over the Earth and discover the secrets He has placed in it from the beginning of creation.

We must begin to offer solutions rather than allowing ourselves to remain a part of the problem. As God's prophets, we must not only see the unseen, but also guide a generation to the hidden cures and solutions He has already provided for us, even within creation. It's great to pray for someone and see God miraculously heal their body, but how much greater is it when He shares a secret that leads to a scientific discovery or a medical breakthrough that completely eliminates an incurable disease so that mankind never has to be effected by it again?

These kinds of Kingdom breakthroughs are of infinite value, fulfilling God's command to take authority and dominion over the Earth, and establishing new standards of quality of life that would have been impossible otherwise. Don't let anyone rob you of these great promises He has given us.

This year we are anticipating many great marvels to come from the sea, the soil, the living creatures and the skies that will impact medical science, energy, and many other areas of the world we live in. Let us together enjoy what the spring season is soon to bring.

I Am Giving You a Key

On September 3, 2008 I had a very unusual dream. In the dream I saw no images. That’s odd for a dream. I was awake for much of this dream and that’s another strange thing. Dreams are supposed to happen while you’re asleep. I might even refer to it as a “vision” – but I didn’t actually see anything. Here’s what happened:

In the dream I heard a voice speaking that delivered 3 messages. During part of the dream I heard a prophet singing. This dream puzzled me until I read the book, Understanding Prophetic People by R. Loren Sandford. The author says that messages delivered by an audible voice are angelic messages. The bible is full of meetings between angels and people. Angels typically deliver a message from God. This is the account of the dream from my journal:

There were no images, there was only a voice speaking: “I will pour out my Spirit says the Lord. I will visit Olympia in 15 months. I, the Lord will raise up Olympia in 15 months.”

I woke up and wrote down the words. My digital clock read 3:21

As I drifted off, the voice returned. There was only sound, no images. Kim Clement was leading worship with a large congregation, he was playing the song “Sacrifice is Beautiful.” He would chant and the congregation echoed his chant. Yeshua! Yeshua! Messiah! Messiah!

These words were spoken by the same voice as the first words: “Do not leave, stay where you are. In 15 months it will come to pass.”

I wrote the words and tried to sleep, but a few minutes later, I heard these words, from the same voice, again no images: “I am giving you a key, do not lose it!

A couple of teaching points should be made here. Dreams can come from different sources. They are usually, but not always symbolic. It’s up to the receiver of the dream to decode the symbolism and to determine who the sender is. The song is like a watermark on a letter that identifies the sender. The sender of the message claimed to be the Lord. Kim Clement was chanting praises to Yeshua and Messiah. The name Yeshua is the Hebrew name Jesus. Messiah means, “anointed one”, the Greek word for Messiah is Christos from which we get the name Jesus Christ. It would be difficult to argue that the message came from anyone else.

In the last part of the dream the voice said I was being given a key. I didn’t receive an actual key that night. The key would therefore be symbolic of something. What does it represent? A key is used to unlock something. I use scripture as my main reference for interpreting dreams. In it, many symbolic things are explained. There are a few generic references to keys in the bible. But a special key (the key of David) is mentioned in Isaiah 22:22, and again in Revelation 3:7. Jesus also refers to the keys of the kingdom in Matt. 16:19. It seems these keys refer to the authority granted to someone to open and shut the doors of the kingdom.

On December 8th, I was watching an interview of Matt Sorger on Extreme Prophetic. In the interview Matt was asked by Patricia King why he thought we didn’t see as many miracles today as there were in years past. Matt reads biographies of people who worked in healing and miracles in the past. He noted that few people today are entering into long times of prayer and fasting, which was common years ago. He suggested this might be the reason.

Later that night I asked God if He wanted me to fast and pray. He said, yes. I asked how long it would be, and closed my eyes. I saw these words: “After 40 days I will release my glory”. I prayed and fasted for a period of time (not the entire 40 days) until God said He had accomplished what He wanted to. On Jan 19th, (42 days later) I had a vision in which I saw the words “I am releasing my Glory”.

On December 14th a well-know prophetic voice, Kim Clement (the same man who was singing and chanting in my dream) prophesied about a new thing God was going to do. Here is a part of the prophecy he gave:

“He has said tonight I speak of keys, the key of David that has been given to a generation. It has already been granted and sent forth. To do what? To unlock the mysteries of the Holy Scriptures, to unlock and unveil the mysteries that Daniel spoke about, that John on the Isle of Patmos spoke about. These mysteries are about to be revealed to bring great treasures into the kingdom of God and into the earth, says the Lord Most High.
Because God said, I'm raising up sons who will manifest my glory. I will bring daughters that will manifest my glory. They will manifest, what do you say manifest? They won't talk about it. They will walk into buildings and the lights will come on. They will walk into meetings where they are discussing the progress or digression of medical science and as they walk in, the light shall come on. These that shall manifest shall not need to speak much. They will walk into hospitals, and the light shall come on…Now this that I am bringing is the revival of the shadow, for there cannot be a shadow without light and the shadow of Peter fell upon those who had no ability to walk.

God said with this light shall there be no need for commanding words. But God said, the very shadow that shall come from those who have light that has been shone upon them shall come in and this shall be the era of the shadow of light, the shadow of light. And God said they will walk in and suddenly the lights will go on, miracles will happen, people will change, conversions will take place. They will just stand and God said the light shall come on. This is an explanation of your next era in the Kingdom, says the Lord of Hosts!

- Kim Clement from Humble, TX - December 14, 2008


I found it fascinating that the same man who was singing in my dream, explained what the key was for 3 months later. The people he spoke of would simply walk into a building without praying and healing and miracles would take place instantly. It sounded pretty incredible, but would God really do such a thing?

A short time ago I went on a call for a person who had a nosebleed for 2 hours. Their doctor increased the dose of a blood-thinning drug they were taking. The patient was ready to go to the hospital to have their nose cauterized to stop the bleeding. This was something they had done before. The fire department said the patient was still bleeding heavily just before we arrived. After we got on scene it took the firefighters about 3 or 4 minutes to tell us the story.

As the Lieutenant spoke, I was watching the patient and noticed that they weren't bleeding much, if at all. The patient kept checking to see if there was any more blood coming from their nose. After we had been on scene for about 5 minutes they were convinced the bleeding had stopped and told us they didn’t want to go to the hospital. The firefighters were surprised at how quickly the bleeding stopped after we arrived. According to them, the patient was bleeding just before we arrived and it seemed to stop the instant we walked in the door. They began to joke about our magic ability to heal people and asked if we would go with them on their calls the rest of the shift so we could heal their patients.

This story is the kind of thing that urban legends are made of. I’m not trying to create more of them. But we should ask the obvious question - was this person healed miraculously? I didn’t pray for them, nor did anyone else to my knowledge. I don’t know if they believed in God or miracles and I’m not sure that really matters. All we have is a series of events that suggests something supernatural may have happened. If God did heal this person, it may happen again. If He used me in this situation, He could use you the same way. I want to be open to whatever God wants to do through me, even if it might seem strange. Are you open to being used by Him?

We are approaching the end of our story. I’m glad you stuck around to hear about it. I’m not certain there was a miracle that day. I’ll let you be the judge. I don’t know if I’m one of the people who will manifest God’s glory in this season. I hope I am and it would be a great honor to do so. If I am I hope people give the credit to the Lord. Many people who have been used by Him have fallen. I'll close with the words of Jesus from John 15, "Without me, you can do nothing."
