A Time to Watch! |

I so appreciate Anne Tate leading us as we seek the Lord for His revelation. Read her call to the Night Watches that follows and watch with us!
Blessings,
Chuck D. Pierce
Dear Watchers:
One of the greatest helps implemented during our Head of the Year Gathering
were the Night Watchers who prayed and watched through the night every night.
Watching and praying during that time loosed revelation and angelic interaction.
Since that time, I have known that we were to begin watching on Saturday night
prior to our Sunday gatherings. The Lord spoke several things to me
about this. Therefore, at the end of October several of us watched
in the Sanctuary during the time of visitation. We have seen great results
in our morning services.
One morning, I heard the Lord say to me that He was ready to meet us again
in the night watches. He told me we needed to "tend the
portal". I didn't know exactly what the
Lord meant, but after pondering the words, I realized that throughout
the last 10 years we had created a portal where revelation flows rather freely.
The sign of the last Hebraic season was the Samekh.
When you look at the number 60 (corresponding with the years 2000-Sept 2009),
it looks like a completed circle, turned up and out at the end of the season.
As we prayed and then prophesied over the last season, we have connected
Heaven and earth. As we have aligned in time over the last season,
a portal has been created through which we can enter into this new season!
Recently as Chuck was teaching, he released a word out of Isaiah 51: 6, 16 concerning the changing of the heavens. "Lift up your eyes to the heavens, and look upon the earth beneath; for the heavens shall be dissolved and vanish away like smoke, and the earth shall wax old like a garment, and they that dwell therein shall die in like manner [like gnats]. But My salvation shall be forever, and My rightness and justice [and faithfully fulfilled promise] shall not be abolished. [Matt 24:35; Heb 1:11; 2 Peter 3:10]...For I am the Lord your God, Who stirs up the sea so that its waves roar and Who by rebuke restrains it — the Lord of hosts is His name. And I have put My words in your mouth and have covered you with the shadow of My hand, that I may fix the [new] heavens as a tabernacle and lay the foundations of a [new] earth and say to Zion, ‘You are My people.’ [Isa 65:17; 66:22; Rev 21:1.]” (AMP)
He then prophesied, "We are connecting into Lord Sabaoth right now.
When you are very near to Him, new words begin to form in your mouth so you
can seed into the heavens, form, and re-form your future for the next 10 years.
This will allow you to establish the heavens, and then relay the revelation
of heaven and will of the Father into the foundation of this nation.
This will cause a realigned covenant purpose to manifest. This
is not difficult - you just have to keep calling!" We want to seed
into our future and our next 10 years!
Ask the Lord for your watch. There are four watches. If you do not have Reordering
Your Day, this book is a must. Each night watch is explained.
Please be attentive to the atmosphere in your watch and discern what the Lord
is asking to be created for now. Move with Him. We are in our second
month of the night watch. We have created a GLORY FURNACE ROOM. We have
received many testimonies each weekend of the presence that greets us. His
presence is there at the night watch and then fills the Sanctuary on
Sunday Mornings.
Faith creates a tangible presence. Each weekend we are moving from faith
to faith and glory to glory. Exodus 19 tells the story of a corporate
encounter with the presence of God when the freed Israelites participated
in the awe-inspiring experience of God's glorious presence. The Stone
Chumash reports that encounter with a portal in this way: "On the
third day when it was morning, there was thunder and lightning and a heavy
cloud on the mountain, and the sound of the shofar was very powerful, and
the entire people that was in the camp shuddered." Moses brought
the people forth from the camp toward God, and they stood at the bottom of
the mountain. All of Mount Sinai was smoking because Hashem had descended
upon it in the fire; its smoke ascended like the smoke of the furnace, and
the entire mountain shuddered exceedingly. The sound of the shofar grew
continually stronger; Moses would speak and God would respond to him with
a voice.
We have been assured in this season that when we speak into the heavenlies,
God will respond with His words. One morning in prayer, I saw the words
of the Lord wrapping around us and swirling in a force field as we came up
higher to meet with Him. We are going to have great watches this season
and the Lord will meet us as surely as He met Moses and the children of Israel
on Mount Sinai.
Other than using Reordering
Your Day, we have also used the newly revised Possessing
Your Inheritance. This book has prophetic words in each chapter
that you can seed into the heavenly atmosphere. We have decreed all the scriptures
on the Blood. We have decreed all the scriptures on healing. We
also encourage everyone to watch the webcast from Tuesday Morning and Wednesday
at Noon to get the revelatory flow. Since both of those webcasts are
available “on demand” you can watch them anytime during the week.
Our focus this week will be the season of miracles and the Festival of Lights
that will begin at Sundown tonight. The first candle of Chanukah is
to be lit on Saturday Night. I found a site on the web that gives some
understanding of the season and the setting for it because it happened during
the time of the Maccabee's. The site is www.jewfaq.org/holiday7.htm.
We are focusing on the points Chuck sent out in the last Thank You letter:
"We are entering the beginning of Chanukah. Chanukah is an eight
day celebration that commemorates the rededication of the Temple. During
the Feast we celebrate that the oil and light never go out. Kislev is
the month of Benjamin - the most gifted with the art of the bow! He
was the only child born in the land of promise. Watch Israel carefully
during this month. Think of the bow and arrow. This is a month
to develop your warfare strategies and have prophetic revelation for war.
Shoot straight this month and move quickly. In this time to fight we must
enter into a new level of trust and rest. Let your trust, confidence,
and support go to a new level. Be sure you have snipped off all tendrils
from the past season and come full circle so you are now moving with clarity
into this next season. Watch for rainbows this month. They indicate
that peace is coming into your warfare. Record all of your dreams this
month. This is a month of night vision or the ‘month of dreams’ where
your future is being revealed or aligned. In a year of digging new wells,
this is the time for the belly/womb, abdomen/river of God to break into a
new level of fullness. We are asking the Lord to develop new relationships
so we each have the ability to understand our next measure."
At Glory of Zion International we are changing prayer leaders every hour and keeping a prayer journal of what happens in each watch. It has been amazing to see all God is doing. Susie Zeigler of Charlotte, North Carolina led a group from her House of Zion last weekend, and as they watched the webcast Sunday Morning they could see what they had prayed blossom before them. We also have a group from Brazil that is praying the same hours that we are praying, but they are praying on Friday Night instead of Saturday night. We bless you as you participate in the watch and seed the heavens over your territory!
Let us know how the Lord is leading you. You can email me at annet[at]gloryofzion[dot]org. He might be asking you to arise each hour in your home. However, we want to encourage you to find people in your area to watch with. Then join with us from December 31-January 3 for Starting the Year Off Right. For more information on registering for the webcast, go to our website.
Blessings,
Anne Tate
Key Resources to Help You Align with God’s Timing
Reordering Your Day by Chuck D. Pierce
The Lord is about to change the course of His people and make us efficient
and effective in our prayer life and with our time! In Reordering Your
Day, learn about the four night watches: Evening (6:00 - 9:00 PM), Midnight
(9:00 PM – Midnight), Breaking of a Day/Cockcrowing (Midnight - 3:00 AM),
and Morning (3:00 - 6:00 AM). Let the Lord reveal to you why you are being
called at certain times to pray. He is restoring the actual watches
of the night so we can see things we have never seen before. This book
will help you understand how God is reordering our day so we can enter into
His timeframe and experience the power of seeing what He sees! ($8)
Possessing Your Inheritance by Chuck D. Pierce and Rebecca Wagner Sytsema
When Regal Books approached me about developing an update to Possessing
Your Inheritance similar to what they had asked for The Future War
of the Church, I knew this book had to be available by Head of the Year.
So in addition to a brand new introduction, I was also able to add a prophetic
word and scripture study section to each chapter. You will want to update
your library with this new release. If you have friends or family members
who need to embrace God’s destiny for their life, this book will be a tremendous
gift. ($10)
Redeeming
the Time by Chuck D. Pierce
Available
in Spanish! ($12)
This book helps you answer the difficult question of how to get back in sync
with God when you realize you missed a window of opportunity. This is an
amazing principle to understand. When one window closes, the Lord has a divine
plan to reposition another time and another place for you to enter His blessings.
How many times do we wish we could go back in time to undo or redo something?
Although the Lord doesn’t take us back in time, He has the ability to bring
our past “into” our future so that we have a second opportunity to choose
and get back in His perfect timing. Redeeming the Time will help you
recognize God’s timing in your life and determine if you are in step or out
of step with God’s plans and purposes. This book will also help you align
yourself with God’s perfect timing system, and reap rewards of a life spent
in step with our Father. There is also a chapter that will help you understand
the Triumphant Reserve that is emerging from state to state. ($12)
Interpreting
the Times by Chuck D. Pierce
Also available in Spanish
($8) and Portuguese
($12)
This book carries the message of what I represent in the Body of Christ:
the Issachar Anointing. Interpreting the Times will give you an idea
of what it takes to make it through narrow transitions. If ever we needed
to understand GOD in our time and space, it is NOW! This book will move
you to understand the "process of time" that may presently be controlling
you, into seeing your way into a place of future victory! ($12)
Or BOTH for $20!
Glory of Zion International pulled aside in the month of August to hear a
new sound. I heard the Lord say these words, "THINKING AND SEEING
BEYOND!" I knew He was saying we must go into the Throne Room
past anything that has hindered us in the past, and press to hear His word
for the next season.
Never before have I heard blended songs of the three generations coming forward like these that have been captured on this CD. You will hear the release of heaven's spontaneous worship. Then you will hear songs that were developed. The song "Dance, Dance, Dance" will blow you away! You will be swept into a tremendous emotional release as you listen to "Teach Us How To Pray" and "Kingdom Come". From the wild war sound of "Speed the Spoil" to LeAnn Squier's "Heaven’s Wings" which covers you with the peace of heaven, this CD will help you go beyond your last place. Isaac Pierce's song for all of the prodigals who cry I want to be "Clean!" is an amazing sound for an amazing time.
($10)
God has given us this book as a gift in a world of conflict, change and uncertainty!
Pam Pierce’s ability to communicate faith in a simple, clear way is amazing.
The Rewards of Simplicity has the best of both worlds; Pam communicates faith
and Chuck explains the warfare we go through internally in dealing with all
of our issues. This book will give you practical ways to "bottom line"
your life. Every business person should read this book! There are also many
new insights concerning how the enemy uses our anxiety in an attempt to rule
our lives and stop our destiny. The Rewards of Simplicity is one of the key
books to read going into this season! ($10)
