Vision seen during our July 3^rd Saturday night Worship Service in Independence MO

We had just seen a number of the gifts of the Spirit being exercised by multiple people in our small group to expose something the enemy was trying to do to one of our brothers. A physical healing was gained after he repented. We then began in an attitude of worship and sang a song or two. The Holy Ghost, in great abundance, filled the room and settled upon us like a heavy dew.

I saw, within my mind, a vision of myself and a number of the other people in the room with me. We were together someplace in Independence. It was sometime in the near future. I don’t know when. The Spirit of God was with us. He was prompting us to claim that piece of land we were standing on, for God. It was some place in the Independence area, but I don’t know where. At first, I remember feeling joy at the prospect that many of...

Deliverance of children

feeds@kickapps.com (HopeOfZion) — Mon, 07 Jun 2010 10:56:53 PST

Last night I got to be part of the deliverance of a young boy, about 5 years old.

It was my first personal experience with the deliverance of a small child.

Praise God for the experience, and for this young man's deliverance, who God has called to one day become a mighty warrior.

Previous to this, participated in and was witness to the deliverance of his parents. Thank you God, that your hand is at work among your Saints. In the restoration of things, surely at the top of the list of things to be done for His people is to see them all set free in the name of Jesus!

The Lord was saying to me this morning that if I was His only creation....He would have done the cross for me.

Getting Hit by a Semi Truck

feeds@kickapps.com (HopeOfZion) — Tue, 30 Mar 2010 11:40:14 PST

A few nights after I had my dream of the kingdom and the wicked sorceress, my wife had a vivid dream, which I am inclined to believe is connected to the new book I am about to publish, and the work I am called to.

She said we were in a dangerous gang-ridden neighborhood somewhere. She was with the car, and I was across the street mailing a letter as there was a postal mailbox there. She was watching me. I had dropped the letter and had turned around, smiling at her.

Just then, some gang members did something to distract her, and she looked away from me and when she looked back, I was laid out on the street. A big semi-truck, without the trailer behind it, had struck me. She hurried to cross the street, but some people picked me up and tossed me in the truck, which then took off.

She woke up crying...

In sharing this with a few people, and from my own impression, I feel that this dream is connected somehow with the book I am publishing,...

Dream of the Kingdom under Oppressive Rule

feeds@kickapps.com (HopeOfZion) — Tue, 23 Mar 2010 06:10:46 PST

I had a dream last night

In the dream, I was in some kind of kingdom. In this kingdom, there was a number of ruling parties, or different groups that had authority in the kingdom. The first group was a ruling council of elders, which was comprised only of men who were supposed to govern and guide the people of the kingdom. There was another council comprised of wise women. They also held some degree of power and authority. Their position and authority was not in competition with the elders, but had its own unique...

Parable of Talents and the Endowment of Power

feeds@kickapps.com (HopeOfZion) — Thu, 11 Mar 2010 10:49:32 PST

[Matthew 25:15] And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one; to every man according to his several ability; and straightway went on his journey.
[Matthew 25:16] Then he that had received the five talents, went and traded with the same; and gained other five talents.
[Matthew 25:17] And likewise he who received two talents, he also gained other two.
[Matthew 25:18] But he who had received one, went and digged in the earth and hid his lord's money.
[Matthew 25:19] After a long time the lord of those servants cometh, and reckoneth with them.
[Matthew 25:20] And so he that had received the five talents came, and brought other five talents, saying, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me five talents; behold, I have gained besides them five talents more.
[Matthew 25:21] His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things; enter thou into the...

Cursing a Disease

feeds@kickapps.com (HopeOfZion) — Wed, 24 Feb 2010 11:58:47 PST

Gary,

Have you ever posted the testimony about when God asked you to curse someone's cancer?

If so... do you know where I can find it?
If not... would you consider writing it up and either posting it here, or emailing me.
I believe it needs to go in this book.

The Fall of the Church System

feeds@kickapps.com (HopeOfZion) — Sat, 09 Jan 2010 06:37:45 PST

I received this by email a few weeks ago, and wanted to share it.
In light of the book I am writing, "From the Church to the Kingdom" I found some of the revelation this woman received all the way back in the 60's, quite astonishing.

The Fall of the Church System Elaine Cook
When the Lord spoke to me in the early sixties about the church falling, I objected: "But Lord, You said that the gates of hell should not prevail against Your church! Surely You can't let Your church pass away!"
His answer was very revealing: "I am talking about My true church!" I saw that this is the church that is to pass away, for it has man as its head, and consists of innumerable denominations, each claiming to be the true Bride of Christ. Yet, if you should say that the Spirit talks to you, they would be the first to cast a stone at you, for "the Lord doesn't talk to people today! He...

Moving forward...if not up.

feeds@kickapps.com (HopeOfZion) — Wed, 11 Nov 2009 17:02:10 PST

I have been standing still, more or less, spiritually speaking for a couple of months now.
Waiting on God ... trying to see my way up to the next level, insisting on Him showing me where to go from here on the book about Healing.
I have had some small directions .... the Spirit pressing me to get back into the Word of God on a daily basis.
But a depression sort of settled in on me, and I haven't felt very connected to the Lord, or very motivated lately.
I been feeling kind of dead inside ... like I have nothing to give, by way of ministry, right now.

So... I get a phone call, someone needing deliverance.
I didn't know how to say no, so... I agreed to help. (though I felt reluctant)
As the time got closer, and I still felt very inadequate, I expressed to my wife that I didn't really feel up to doing this ministry. Although deliverance ministry is something I actually know quite a bit about, you don't want to confront demons...

Two Dreams about the Church of Christ, Restored

feeds@kickapps.com (HopeOfZion) — Thu, 20 Aug 2009 16:40:45 PST

I had these dreams near the end of June, and shared them during a sermon.

Two Dreams - June 28, 2009

I saw this beautiful young woman. I discerned that she had gifts and talents that were precious and rare in this world, and very much needed. It seemed to me that what she had to offer was unique, and not found anywhere else - but I perceived there was a problem with her health, some kind of disease, and if it were not healed - it could kill her, and so I had a desire to heal her, because what she had to offer was so needed in this world.

Then I woke up and wondered what kind of strange dream that was. It hadn't even entered my mind that it was a dream from God, but then the Spirit of...

Frustrations... and a Blessing

feeds@kickapps.com (HopeOfZion) — Wed, 19 Aug 2009 14:09:54 PST

So...

I haven't shared this yet, but this week (starting this last weekend) has been a week of frustration for me.

I have felt frustration in many aspects of my spiritual walk ... in not seeing things happen, though I exercised all the faith I could muster. Questioning God about His asking me to write a book on healing, when I can't seem to get healed myself. Frustrated by the constant and building attempts by some folks in a certain denomination to resist the truth, and unknowingly persecute and offend those "little ones" Jesus talks about in the Scriptures, not in the defense of the actual word of God, but in defense of their traditions. And I found myself upset at God, on some level.... almost ready to quit on Him. I found myself struggling with doubts, unlike I have experienced ever in my life. I was having visions of walking away completely... serious. But then felt trapped because it would hurt so many people, and I couldn't do that,...

I don't know if this is what you are looking for, but here's one of my stories for you, Doug.

When I was 8 months pregnant with my first child, I went in for a sonogram to make sure everything was going alright because I was huge! The Doctor was concerned with the amount of amniotic fluid that was measured- there wasn't very much. She set up an appointment for me to see a specialist in San Antonio- 45 mins. away- and told me she was concerned, but I shouldn't worry too much about it.
I got my appointment card- it was for the following Monday(it was now Wenesday). I called and told my parents what was going on and Chris told his parents also. We had a lot of prayers and fasting in our behalf that weekend.
Monday arrived and Chris took me to my appointment. I told the receptionist that I had an appointment that day. She looked me up and said " No, your appointment was supposed to be last Thursday, didn't anyone call you to...

Please post your testimonies of healing!

feeds@kickapps.com (HopeOfZion) — Wed, 05 Aug 2009 12:07:31 PST

I need some good testimonies of healing...especially when the gifts of healing, either faith to heal, or faith to be healed, have been exercised.
Times when you or a loved ones were healed because of the prayers or act of faith of others, not just priesthood or administrations...but regular people exercising faith.

A Testimony of Healing

feeds@kickapps.com (Still Learning) — Tue, 28 Jul 2009 10:09:56 PST

A couple years ago, I developed what I thought was a large pimple or small boil on the lower right side of my stomach. Within 3 days this small boil became the size of an orange. On top of that I was feeling very poorly, almost passing out a couple times at work. The still small voice in me told me that I had to go see the doctor. The next day, a Friday, the doctor examined me. He told me that I needed to go to the hospital immediately to have the abcess on my stomach examined by a surgeon. I checked into the hospital that afternoon. The surgeon saw me at around 5:00p.m. He advised me that I would have to have surgery immediately to remove the abscess. The operation was a success but while I was being operated on the surgeon had blood tests done on me. He discovered that I also had the Mrsa staph infection, a highly contagious and potentially deadly infection. I had to stay in the hospital for 5 days, receiving intravenous antibiotics that were so powerful they could burn my skin if...
