WHAT THE SPIRIT IS SAYING TO THE CHURCH...

2013: Great Fortune or Missed Fortune

Prophecy Given Through Barbara Williams, December 30, 2012

Taken From The Prophecies Page

at

MinistryoftheWatchman.com

The year 2013 the number 13 has a significance biblically. The significance has been exaggerated in the world, and the 13 is always said to be an unlucky number and a number of misfortune. The Lord is saying that, While there is misfortune for some those outside of my covenant, outside of my grace, and outside of my will this will be a year of missed fortune. But those of you who love me and obey me even in the toughest of times, that you stay and you stand fast, this will be a year of great fortune, says the Lord. For there are many fortunate circumstances yet to come upon my people, says the Lord. And the enemy would have you miss them because of missed fortune, because of error in your steps, deception, snares and traps that he lays for all men, says the Spirit of God. But those who are wise will stay with me and will trust me as the Good Shepherd. For this is the year where my leadership in your life will be of the utmost importance as you watch and see the missed fortune of many. Many will fall on your right hand and on your left, but it wont come near you. You will just walk through it as on dry ground, says the Spirit of God. Your feet will not slip. You will not be fearful. You will not even sense danger. And when you look back and you see the destruction that has been in this year in so many areas, you will relish in the fact that you know your God. That will be validation that I am with you, and you will look and you will heed that sigh of relief, and say Thank you, Jesus, because you brought me through a most difficult time that had come upon the earth, says the Spirit of God. For there will be places where robbery and looting will increase, says the Lord. There will be an extension of the war of the rich against the poor, says the Lord. There will be much striving even in households, but yours will be a household of peace. Yours will be a household of great fortune if you will listen to me and you will heed my word and you will cling to me and go forth in my power and in my anointing. There will be great opportunity for ministry for my people, for there will be a word of wisdom that will come forth from you that will help those that are reaching out to me but dont know how to find me, says the Lord. This will be a year of beginning of harvest. Harvesting of those who want me and want me of a truth, says the Lord. Not the religion that theyve been fed for so long, but want ME, says the Lord. I will stand out outside of religion. I will stand out in such a way that they will be able to see me through my glorious church. So stay with me. Dont leave me. My hand is not changing. I have an unchangeable hand, and I hold you with the right hand of My righteousness, and as youre righteous in me, theres no law against you, theres nothing that can stop you. You will plow through every difficulty and every challenge because you put me first in all things, says the Spirit of God.

So there is great fortune coming for those fortunate enough to hold on to the great fortune that Ive promised you, says the Spirit of God. And yes, there is much to come. Much has not been revealed yet, says the Spirit of God, but it will be revealed to those who cling to me and are led by me as my word is declared that if you obey me and serve me, you will spend your years in prosperity and your days in pleasure, says the Spirit of God. This will be a season of great pleasure and great fortune for you, says the Spirit of the Living God. And many of you are sensing it, says the Lord. Many of you are seeing small encouragements here and there, and know that thats the cloud that starts as the size of a mans hand, and as you follow the cloud, it gets bigger and bigger and you get under it, and there is abundance of rain for those who will follow me, says the Spirit of the Living God. So hold on! Hold on for your help is drawing nigh, and Im coming for my bride, says the Spirit of the Living God. The new thing is upon us, says the Lord. And yes, its been difficult, and its been a struggle for many of you, but its worth it. For things that I could not use have been shaken off and removed, that that which is pure and is godly and is holy can remain. And there is no stopping a holy people. There is no stopping a holy people. There is no stopping a holy people, says the Spirit of the Living God.

REJOICE IN THE CITY! The Miracle in Cleveland

ER FOCU Y A S PR

Phenomenal Jesus: He Holds Our Souls in Life!

O bless our God, ye people, and make the voice of his praise to be heard: Which holdeth our soul in life, and suffereth not our feet to be moved. Psalms 66:8, 9 KJV
Have you ever wondered about the miracles of deliverance that occur? They dont just happen! Through unrelenting prayer and steadfast faith, the phenomenal Jesus will hold those souls we pray for in life! In 1990 God gave us a mandate to pray for Crimes against Children. It was inspired by the Adam Walsh abduction and murder and the work of his Father, John on Americas Most Wanted. We have a prayer for this in our Master Prayer Manual. Above that, our Cleveland Pastor, Shirley Camp felt impressed to make a poster with pictures of missing and exploited Children which were clipped from flyers and milk cartons. These are prayed for twice weekly at our meetings. Three girls abducted in Cleveland, Amanda Berry, Gina DeJesus, and Michele Wright, were added to our prayers. Over the years, Many said they were dead, but Jesus holds their souls in life! Just as He did with Lazarus and Jairus daughter, the moment the first prayer was heard, Jesus received these souls and held them in His life. We continued to pray just as we continue to pray for every child on that poster. On May 6, 2013, those three missing (now women) were rescued alive from a home where they had been held for over ten years. Saints dont give up! The mother of one of those girls in desperation consulted a psychic, Sylvia Browne, who told her her daughter was dead and that she would see her on the other side. The mother passed away a few years ago. She was robbed of the joy of being reunited with her precious child. Never give up, saints! We serve a phenomenal Jesus who holds our souls in life! Ministry of the Watchman, Founding Pastor

Rev. Barbara Williams,

NEVER GIVE UP!

As intercessors we never give up! We are appointed by God to do warfare in the spirit realm where evil powers exist. We hear within ourselves the heart of God... And what His concerns are. We observe from our spiritual tower what prayer is needed for certain situations. God loves us and wants all men to live in the kingdom with abundant life. So we take a stand against evil princes, and keep the vision God has given us written on our hearts until that appointed time, according to Habakkuk 2:1. There had been too many abducted children, according to pictures on milk cartons and the snapshots mailed to our homes that said Have you Seen Me. Finally, there was a 20 year old abducted from the near west side of Cleveland.... a year later, another; she was only 15... Then a few months later another girl, only 14. The evil princes were testing our integrity to God... It greatly bothered us. I was shopping in SAMs Club when I notice those same little snapshots of faces posted on the wall. I asked God what do we do to get these kids home, and He told me to cut those faces out and make a poster and pray over it every time we met for prayer... So I did. We did warfare... bombarded heaven on these childrens behalf, and didnt quit. True Watchmen never quit because at the appointed time, the vision will surely come to pass. Who would have thought ten years would go by... then SUDDENLY... God broke the jaw of the evil one, and Michelle, Amanda and Gina were recovered. We serve a God that cannot fail us. Intercessors, take your assignment seriously and walk worthy of the call of God! To God be the glory!

Rejoice CLEVELAND!

We will without fail recover all that the devil has stolen and receive all that Our Lord Jesus Christ has purchased for us. Hes promised us victory, and we will reap if we faint not.

Join us on the first Saturday of the month for a time of intercession for our city.

Rejoice In T he Cit y!

Taken From The Daily Teachings Page at MinistryoftheWatchman.com

My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings. Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart. Proverbs 4:20-21
Instructions from God. Please pay attention. Whenever God gives instructions, we need to take heed to what He is saying and obey Him. If we are willing and obedient we will eat the good of the land. Many may be willing, but God does not honor our will; He honors our obedience. If we dont obey God, we will obey whatever pleases our flesh momentarily. Whatever we sow to the flesh will produce corruption. Disease and sickness are a type of corruption. In order to stop the process of corruption on our flesh, God intervenes and gives us instructions for our prosperity. His instructions to prosper are consistent throughout His word. Isnt it wonderful that God never changes? He honors His word. His word is Him; it contains the very essence of God in all His glory. No wonder the Word must be given our full attention. The Word is God. When we incline our ears to hear the Word, we are hearing God speak to us. When we keep the Word before our eyes we are beholding God; when we hide the Word in the midst of our hearts, we are inviting God inside. It is impossible to separate God from His word. They are one. So if we want to keep God close, keep His word close. The spirit will follow the Word. Focus on the Word, and the Spirit of God will cooperate with the Word. The Spirit of God then performs what the Word of God decrees. Keep the Word close by paying close attention to it.

DAILY TEACHING

For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh. Proverbs 4:22
The Word is life to you if you find it. How do you find the Word? You find it through revelation. When you meditate on Gods word, seek for it, keep it before your eyes, fight to hold it in your heart and not let it go in exchange for some thoughts that appeal to your carnal senses, and then you will find the Word, and God begins to speak to you the deeper meaning of what you just meditated upon. Finding the Word also means finding the right promise that answers whatever need you might have. This is a marvelous thing that occurs when we keep the Word before us and hide it in our hearts. The Word then begins to transform us and this transformation brings us from death and corruption into life. His life. Eternal life. The Word of God has His eternal life in it. When we hide the Word in our hearts, we hide His life in our hearts.

Adults as well as children will find this book fascinating and fun to read. Full Color - 62 pages

and the SECRET OF THE KINGDOM

MINISTER GRUD

There is yet another benefit of finding Gods word and holding on to it in our hearts. It also brings health to all our flesh. This means that no matter what illness attacks your body or how many of them attack you at one time, inclining your ear to, holding on to and meditating upon His word, will bring health to your flesh. Many people can believe the Word heals the soul, but not the flesh. This scripture says that the Word is actually medicine to our flesh. Take the Word like medicine. Take as many doses per day as you like; it is impossible to take too much of the Word. When you are healed, if you continue to take it, you will stay healed and walk in Divine health. You then have an overflow of healing medicine in you. You can pray for others and they will be healed, too. What marvelous power there is in Gods word.
