Bed för Norge!

Bed för vårt brödrafolk i Norge! Bed för alla offers familjer, alla ungdomar som fått vara med om traumatiska händelser, för alla som påverkats negativt av det som hänt. Bed att vår Gud tröstar och stärker. Bed att fruktan inte får ett fäste utan att kärlek och omsorg om medmänniskor får breda ut sig i denna svåra stund. Välsigna våra systrar och bröder och bed att något gott får komma ut ur dessa tragiska händelser. Gud välsigne dig! /Barnabas

Sevenfold Spirit of God

Nedan finns en undervisning om Guds sju andar och här kan du också lyssna till en alldeles utmärkt undervisning om detta: http://www.daystaratlanta.org/resources/sermons.asp leta upp:

"The 7 Spirits of God" Johnny Enlow August 15, 2009

---------------------------------------

Sevenfold Spirit of God

It is easier to recall the gifts of the Spirit, the ten commandments, but what of the Seven Spirits of God? As I re-read Chuck pierce's word from several days ago (see further below on this page) I found myself stumbling to recall the seven spirits. So using the Word we can trace and see these seven spirits as detailed by John in his letter to the churches. Enjoy, -Fletch

(Revelation 1:4-5) "This letter is from John to the seven churches in the province of Asia. Grace and peace from the one who is, who always was, and who is still to come; from the sevenfold Spirit before his throne; and from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness to these things, the first to rise from the dead, and the commander of all the rulers of the world. All praise to him who loves us and has freed us from our sins by shedding his blood for us."

(Revelation 3:1-2) "Write this letter to the angel of the church in Sardis. This is the message from the one who has the sevenfold Spirit of God and the seven stars: "I know all the things you do, and that you have a reputation for being alive-but you are dead. Now wake up! Strengthen what little remains, for even what is left is at the point of death. Your deeds are far from right in the sight of God."

(Revelation 4:4-5) "Twenty-four thrones surrounded him, and twenty-four elders sat on them. They were all clothed in white and had gold crowns on their heads. And from the throne came flashes of lightning and the rumble of thunder. And in front of the throne were seven lampstands with burning flames. They are the seven spirits of God."

(Revelation 5:6) "I looked and I saw a Lamb that had been killed but was now standing between the throne and the four living beings and among the twenty-four elders. He had seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven spirits of God that are sent out into every part of the earth."

WHAT ARE THE SEVEN SPIRITS?

I. SPIRIT OF TRUTH

John 15:26 (NLT)

"But I will send you the Counselor-the Spirit of truth. He will come to you from the Father and will tell you all about me."

John 16:13 (NLT)

"When the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all truth. He will not be presenting his own ideas; he will be telling you what he has heard. He will tell you about the future. "

1 John 4:6 (NLT)

"But we belong to God; that is why those who know God listen to us. If they do not belong to God, they do not listen to us. That is how we know if someone has the Spirit of truth or the spirit of deception."

2. SPIRIT OF POWER

2 Timothy 1:7 (NLT)

"For God has not given us a spirit of fear and timidity, but of power, love, and self-discipline."

3. SPIRIT OF LOVE

2 Timothy 1:7 (NLT)

"For God has not given us a spirit of fear and timidity, but of power, love, and self-discipline."

4. SPIRIT OF SELF-DISCIPLINE

2 Timothy 1:7 (NLT)

"For God has not given us a spirit of fear and timidity, but of power, love, and self-discipline."

5. SPIRIT OF WISDOM

Deuteronomy 34:9 (NLT)

"Now Joshua son of Nun was full of the spirit of wisdom, for Moses had laid his hands on him. So the people of Israel obeyed him and did everything just as the LORD had commanded Moses."

Proverbs 1:23 (NLT)

"Come here and listen to me! I'll pour out the spirit of wisdom upon you and make you wise."

6. SPIRIT OF JUDGMENT

Isaiah 4:4 (NLT)

"The Lord will wash the moral filth from the women of Jerusalem. He will cleanse Jerusalem of its bloodstains by a spirit of judgment that burns like fire."

Isaiah 19:14 (NLT)

"The LORD has sent a spirit of foolishness on them, so all their suggestions are wrong. They cause the land of Egypt to stagger like a sick drunkard."

(This spirit was sent to punish the Egyptians, thus, it is of the Spirit of Judgment.)

Isaiah 29:10 (NLT)

"For the LORD has poured out on you a spirit of deep sleep. He has closed the eyes of your prophets and visionaries."

(This spirit was sent to punish the enemies of Jerusalem, thus, it is the Spirit of Judgment.)

7. SPIRIT OF LIFE

Revelation 11:11 (NLT)

"But after three and a half days, the spirit of life from God entered them, and they stood up! And terror struck all who were staring at them."

Zechariah 12:10 (NLT)

"Then I will pour out a spirit of grace and prayer on the family of David and on all the people of Jerusalem. They will look on me whom they have pierced and mourn for him as for an only son. They will grieve bitterly for him as for a firstborn son who has died."

Nationellt böneupprop

NATIONELLT BÖNEUPPROP för Hösten 2011-2012 - Tillsammans för ett förvandlat land.

www.sverigebonen.se

10 juli 2011

Till alla troende och orter i Sveriges land

Guds frid!

Till församlingarna som deltog i Bön på Nationaldagen 2011: Vi sänder

er varma hälsningar ifrån bönenätverket Sverigebönen och önskar Er en
härlig sommar och välbehövlig vila efter en lång vinter. Än en gång,
underbart att Ni anordnade bön på Er ort 6/6. Det var 104 orter som bad.
Visst ger detta mersmak! Vi har mottagit många segerrapporter från olika
platser i vårt land, från norr till söder. Gud Hör bön!

Drottningen skickade brev om uppmaning till bön, och Kungen sa i sitt
nationaldagstal att det är viktigt att med tacksamhet utbrista i texten
”Land, du välsignade”. - Vårt land blir mer välsignat när sinnena är
öppna och viljan att lära av varandra är gränslös, sa han i sitt tal.

BÖN FÖR DIN ORT (1 Tim 2:1-4)

Hösten 2011-2012

Vårt land och folk har stora behov och utmaningar. Under lång tid och
på många orter beds det för orten regelbundet. I Stockholm och S:ta
Clara kyrka anordnas "Bön för staden" en gång i månaden (uppstart igen
slutet av augusti). Vi vill nu inspirera Er till att Ni också tar
initiativ till "Bön för staden/orten" där Ni bor.

Vi vill att bönens eld skall drabba landet och ett naturligt samarbete
har börjat med 6/6. Låt oss stå tillsammans i för landet!

Förslagsvis kan Ni också börja i slutet av augusti eller när det passar
Er. Vi uppmuntrar till 8-12 samlingar per år i ekumenisk bön. Låt det
gärna vara bön på en plats mitt i ortens hjärta. Flera ber redan i stads
och kommunhus för sin ort.

Vi uppmuntrar bön inom 7 samhällsområden (se powerpoint på vår hemsida)
- Näringsliv/affärsvälden
- Media
- Politik, riksdag och överhet
- Utbildning och skola
- Familjen
- Religion och kyrka
- Kultur och konst

Bön: Vi ber om ett andligt ledarskap som tar ansvar för sin ort. Ge mod
och kraft till ditt folk Herre att be och arbeta för skörden. Vi ber att
korset ska bli synligt och verksamt på varje samhällsområde. I Jesu
Namn. Amen.

Vi hoppas att vi tillsammans kan nå ut med information via olika
nätverk och kanaler beträffande böneinitiativet och uppropet. Hör av er
gärna när ni har startat er ortsbön eller om ni redan ber regelbundet.
Mail: info@sverigebonen.se. Boka redan nu in 6 juni 2012 på din ort. Väl
mött i bön!

För Sverigebönen,
Carl-Erik Sahlberg, Ingemar Helmner, Patrik Sandberg, Torbjörn Erling

Herrens örnar samlas

Detta profetiska tilltal är från 2003, men jag upplever ändå att det är aktuellt idag. De "örnar" som varit separerade håller nu på att samlas på olika sätt. Läs och pröva.

Gathering Of Eagles

"And they answered and said unto him, where Lord? And He said unto them, wheresoever the body is, there will the eagles be gathered together." Luke 17:37

"You have seen what I did to the Egyptians, and how I bore you on eagles' wings and brought you to myself." Ex 19:4

"And it came to pass on the third day, in the morning, that there were thunders and lightnings and the voice of the trumpet exceedingly loud." Ex 19:16

I have said that I am gathering My Eagles. As I delivered the Israelites from Egyptian bondage with lightning and eagles, so once again I am about to deliver My people with lightning and eagles.

Before I bring My judgment and My deliverance, I gather My eagles together and I shall lift them up on eagle's wings. Each eagle has experienced being alone in solitude, their only companionship being their God.

Their wait has been extremely painful at times, waiting for the manifestation of who and what they are - my cupbearers - the bearers of life.

They represent My Word, all the while soaring to the greater heights and victory. I have hidden, raised, trained and nurtured My anointed ones and they are being gathered for the sake of the world. My Eagles, those who will "see" MY vision and have the courage to soar where none have gone before and confident in the strength of the One Who uplifts them, going forth in perfect obedience to their Lord.

And when they soar it will be a GLORIOUS sight to behold! They have learned discipline, the discipline of silence - solitude - and the seemingly endless waiting, waiting, waiting.

Many tears have been shed, hurts, rejections, heartaches, being alone - all in preparation for their gathering.

The wait has seemed endless, and many might have given in, but because of the Spirit of My Son dwelling within their hearts and the knowledge of My High Calling on their lives, they have remained on course.

They know and feel their destiny and have MY strength to mount above the storm. They have seen the storm hit full blast upon them, still their destiny is "fixed" for a purpose AND a time - and it will not be defeated or destroyed - either by the enemy or by man!

Eagles who have been on fire, with a passionate longing for their God - their eyes discerning the brightness of the Son and their ears hearing the deep rolls of thunder.

Though at the moment, they are not visible to the world, My Spirit is even now moving upon My Sons and Daughters of glory and they shall be raised to heights that have never been seen before.

They have waited upon Me and now I shall 'renew' their strength and they shall mount up with wings as eagles, they shall run and not be weary and they shall walk and not be faint.

But, the scoffers also gather. Many will scoff and mock My Eagles, many will reject them, but when they do, they scoff, mock and reject Almighty God.

Nonetheless, be assurred, My eagles, no other birds can contend with you, for you have learned not to waste your time on them. You will soar even higher up, under My protective wings beyond their reach.

I have given you power and strength 'for hope' while waiting for your Lord to give the call.

As in the natural the eagle is the highest flying of all birds - the only creature, man or beast, who can look directly into the sun and it's eyes not be destroyed - so it is with My spiritual eagles.

You can look directly into the light of God, without being destroyed. You have had bouts of weariness, when your physical eyes took over, trying to find your own solutions through your own resources, and not Mine - Perceiving your "circumstances" to be bigger than your God.

But, as I fluttered above your nest and spread My wings, you "saw" that you dared "not" to lean on anything in this world, but to trust Me and ME alone and you learned to fly, "focused on ME."

You have learned to keep "focused" with your keen spiritual eyesight, looking straight ahead, led by My Son and you have yielded to Me, waiting for the wind of My Spirit, before you fly. In My perfect timing, you will soar, up - up -closer to ME, flying to the highest heavenly realm.

My Golden ones - soaring upward with no effort, just spreading your wings. You have said "I come to do Your will, O Lord" and you shall mount up and 'together' we shall soar as never before! And I will cause you to ride on the high places of the earth.

I am taking you from all the nations, all the races, gathering you to Myself. I 'chose' My eagles, separating them unto Me.

You have been purified and given a new heart and now I am gathering My Eagles. You shall mount up on My command, making your nests high upon "THE ROCK." You shall see with new eyes and shall behold My Kingdom AND see the Splendor, Glory and Majesty of your God.

I am giving a call for My eagles to arise and come forth, calling you out of the darkness of the wilderness, and you shall be strong and do great exploits. No longer baby eaglets, but mature eagles.

You have heard My voice in the wilderness, now I am coming for My eagles, calling you together and you shall use the double edged sword in your talons for MY GLORY. Already, you are seeing with eagle's eyes, with "a passion for the possible", and soon you WILL SEE the impossible become possible.

I shall command LIFE for you, and what man can stop it? I am gathering My eagles, to join in union with their Lord, My Son, and the sharing of His anointing.

And you shall be transformed into My Light - My Glory, counted worthy by your God. The saints of all ages and My angels are watching and waiting in glorious anticipation of the Gathering of My Eagles.

"So we should live on eagle's wings - above the sadness, problems, stress. So spread your wings, oh child of God, catch the wind that blows and let Him take you to that joy that only you can know." (The last few lines of poetry that a beloved friend has written) golden eagle

Skillnad på kraft och auktoritet

John Paul Jacksons månadsbrev för juni:

The Heart of Kingdom Authority

June 2011
by John Paul Jackson

Jesus Christ came to Earth fully human, fully man, to redeem humanity and reveal something that most of us don’t notice right away: He revealed the authority we are capable of walking in. Basically, His life says to us, “Watch what I do, because everything I do, you can do. I get everything from the Father, and you can do everything I do if you have the relationship with Him that I have. And by the way, I have come to ensure that such a relationship with Him is possible for you.”

I have been a Christian for about 55 years, and as many of you have probably experienced, day-in, day-out Christian life can feel somewhat stagnant — unless we have something to make it interesting. If you are bored in your Christian walk, something is missing!

Perhaps it is the understanding that it takes more than power to make a Christian life really interesting. It also takes authority.

Why authority?

The major difference between power and authority is that anybody can have power — it is a gift, but authority comes only from intimate, abiding relationship with God and that takes effort. Authority is bestowed upon us through relationship, and therefore it is only as deep as that relationship.

Because it is rooted and wrapped in God’s presence, authority is greater than power. That is why Jesus gave the disciples authority over all the power of the enemy. Power does not necessitate relationship because it is an irrevocable gift. It can be residual or momentary; we may exercise it often, or it could happen only once in our lives. The devil clearly has power and uses it for his own purposes. He does not, however, have authority. He lost that when he fell from Heaven, which is why the disciples said, “Lord, even the demons are subject to us in Your name.”

Power is recognized once it happens, but authority is recognized before it happens. The demons recognized that Jesus had authority before He ever did anything. In other words, they knew Him by His relationship with God, and therein lies the secret. We can have a power encounter and never change, but transformation comes with authority, because it involves time spent in the presence and heartbeat of our Father.

Relationship with God

Relationship is the heart of Kingdom authority. The Bible says to seek first the Kingdom and God’s righteousness, and everything else will be added to us. If we want to walk in spiritual authority, we need to put relationship with our Father first. We need to take on the nature of Christ by spending time with Him: time in His Word, time in prayer, time relating to Him. Then through time and experience with Him, we adopt a heart of obedience, which is the heart of a servant, and we adopt a heart of submission, which is the heart of a friend.

The Kingdom of God is based on authority. It conquers through power, but it rules through authority.

Hunger for God

Many people question why much of the Western Church is powerless. I would say we’re more “authority-less” than powerless. Generally speaking, the Church has forgotten about being transformed into His likeness. Five or 10 years after a revival, we sit back and wonder why we’re not different. Some of us aren’t even as close to God as we were before the revival, let alone after the revival. Again, power doesn’t change us. But authority always will because it involves God’s heart.

In the coming months, I think the Church as a whole is going to be reintroduced to the Father, and a hunger for authority is going to ensue. With that hunger for authority, we will see more spiritual encounters than we have in 20 or 30 years. Signs and wonders occur in the place where God’s power and hunger for authority combine.

If we want to have the kind of authority that disrupts the enemy, we have to have deep relationship with our Father. That relationship is the key to everything. It is the answer to this question of authority and power, and it is the answer to what many Christians fear: an inconsequential, mundane existence.

As we seek Him and His righteousness, we will naturally begin to exercise more of His Kingdom, and we will find what has been missing in our lives. We will find more of His heart.

Reningsverk

Den här texten sätter verkligen ord på det skede som jag tror Sverige befinner sig i just nu och som en hel del förebedjare är engagerade i bön för. Susan O´Marra bor i USA och tilltalet kanske riktas till denna nation, men som sagt, jag upplever dessa ord som mycket aktuella även för Sverige.
Grunden kommer att skakas och sådant som inte är välbehagligt inför Herren kommer att avslöjas. Speciellt sådana synder som förorenar marken, sådant man brukar kalla rotsynder.
Dvs:
- avgudadyrkan (2 Mos 20:3-4 och 34:12-16, Esra 9:11-12, Jer 3:6-10, Jer 16:18),
- sexuell omoral (3 Mos 18:1-30, Hes 16:25-27),
- blodsskulder (4 Mos 35:33, Ps 106:36-39, Hes 9:9), och
- brutna förbund (som kan leda till felaktiga förbund) (Jes 24:5-6, Hebr 10:28-29).

För dessa synder behöver vi förebedjare ställa oss upp i gapet och be om förlåtelse, omvända oss och be Herren bringa läkedom för vårt land. (2 Krön 7:14)
Jag upplever hur Herren lagt en god grund i Sverige, men den har på olika sätt blivit förorenad på dessa områden och de här "ogräsrötterna" behöver dras upp och sprickorna efter dem muras igen så att grunden blir stabil igen så att Herren tillsammans med oss kan fortsätta bygga upp Sverige till det Han har tänkt att det ska vara. /Barnabas


Child, I told you that I was going to go to the very root of the heart of your nation, and that I was going to break forth and set My charges against her pillars and structures and that a great demolition would occur so that I could forth bring My renovation process. You are seeing the very beginnings of that phase. I am forcing to the surface every foul thing that is buried deep within your nation’s heart. Every work of darkness shall come into the light. Every evil intention shall be discovered and uncovered. That which has lain comfortably underneath shall now be pressed till it fully emerges and it shall be utterly undone. What I told you was true. I shall have My way, and I shall bring this nation to it’s knees before Me. It is My Day. It is a Significant Time.

You are not to fear, or to be dismayed at what you will see openly displayed. I told you that I was going to the root. I shall leave no stone uncovered. I am going to thoroughly expose, and to thoroughly deal, so that no man can say that they did not know, and that they were deceived. No! For every heart shall know! I know that which lies deep within. I know the truth, and I know the hidden lies. Every heart will see the depth of it’s own depravity, and when My Light shall come, I shall set free all that want Me to set them free. I have come to bring a great liberty!

You are seeing only the first layers beginning to come to the surface, much more shall come, it shall be a great unveiling. It shall then lead to great national travailing, and when you have birthed forth from within, then My new work shall begin. I have heard your prayers. I am answering every one of them. I shall have a People, which are called by My Name, and they shall walk in My Light unashamed. I have yet to reveal all of My Plans, but you must trust Me and know that I Am! I know what I am doing in your midst. I shall bring forth all that is ordained to be. The rest will be cast off as shameful iniquity. Such a dealing shall I do with you, that other nations shall reel with all that I do and reveal. They shall know that I shall also do it with them. It is time for My Harvest to begin!

You must walk even closer to Me. You must cleave to My Word even more. It is time to watch and pray as never before. For I shall rise and I shall roar, and all that is against Me shall be separated forevermore. I have drawn a line, and no darkness shall cross it. No compromisers shall walk it. No liars shall move it. No mockers shall disprove it. I shall arise and I shall bring forth My Justice swiftly. Men shall know that I am He, for they shall come face to face with Me. I am coming. My angels are ready, the charges are set, the explosions shall commence. No more riders sitting on the fence. My demolition has begun. My Hand has come. I shall show you what needs to be done. Set your faces into My Winds and know that it is you that I will send, for I will set your cities on end. Great displays of My Presence and My Power shall burst forth with every falling tower. You will see My Design and wonder at My Signs. For I shall cause all of Mine to understand, and you shall walk hand in hand.

The Father Loves You!

Jewels from Judy: The Father Loves You!
By Judy Bauman
~
The Father Loves You – an exhortation from my heart to yours:
~
Today as I write you, I rejoice in the Father’s Love. We can know that no matter what turns life may take, the LORD God will be with us. He will never leave nor forsake us. This is His promise! During difficult times, which are sometimes referred to as a “dark night of the soul,” we need to set our face like flint and seek the Father’s will in our situation. Jesus lived this by example. The Father will always provide a way for us when we seek Him. The Bible teaches that the testing of our faith is precious to God. He tested all the patriarchs and their examples are written so that we can learn and be strengthened in our heart, soul, mind, body and spirit. I believe how we go through times of testing; these dark nights of the soul, will speak of our growth in Him and also to those around us. (See Matthew 5:16)
~
Right now, some of you reading this post may feel abandoned by God or that you are in trouble with Him. We have to see with the eyes of our understanding is that ALL our sins are covered by the atoning blood of Jesus! He is our High Priest; and because of this fact, we can go boldly to the Throne of Grace in our time of trouble. (See Ephesians 1:18; Hebrews 4:14-16)
~
We don’t need to beg and plead for mercy or try atoning for our own sin before approaching the Father. At the moment of need is when we are to RUN to Him. All begging, pleading, acts of penance and self-punishment are our own works trying to cover sin. If we could do that, then we wouldn’t need a Savior. However, when we come boldly to receive mercy, we are actually obeying Scripture! This “coming boldly to the Lord” is something that takes some practice, because it comes naturally to us to try to cover ourselves. That is what Adam and Eve did in the garden when they sewed the fig leaves together! They were working to cover themselves and it obviously didn’t work. If we repent and declare the Word of God over our feelings and situation, we will see the Lord’s hand swoop in and cover us. When God covers your sin, it is covered!
~
Now that is the gift of God and our biggest part – is to rejoice in the freedom of it!!! AMEN!
