Christian prophecy for the church and for the nations from a servant of God called to speak God's word

Joshua Mills Promises Miracle Money

I found the following two products listed below on Joshua Mills’ New Wine International website here: http://www.newwineinternational.org/productorder.html.

It looks like C Peter Wagner, Chuck Pierce and Steve Shulz of the Elijah List need to buy both these products given their present economic troubles. But then again, these guys also  promise the same kind of thing, and tout conferences/prophecies and products along the very same lines to their unsuspecting public! They just don’t work. 

Joshua Mills is yet another modern day charlatan – and one of the more transparent of them. Long before the recent economic crisis highlighted the fact these guys obviously cannot practise what they preach, Joshua Mills was promising this ‘miracle money’ while still  taking up financial offerings in his meetings. Go figure. It doesn’t make sense, anymore than the amazing diamonds and rubies and gold dust they claim to manifest at their meetings doesn’t make any sense either.  For just one of these jewels – if it was what they really said it was, and of course it is not, it is cheap costume jewellery bought on ebay a dime a dozen – would sell for hundreds of thousands of dollars, enough to keep even greedy them in the habits they are accustomed to, for a long long time.

MIRACLE MONEY – Joshua Mills

“In this new wave of signs and wonders many people around the world are beginning to experience money supernaturally appearing in purses, pockets and bank accounts. The glory of God is being released in this day with a flow of financial blessing! In this CD you’ll discover that God has an end-time transference of wealth available for you as He is releasing miracle money! This is a faith-building CD for finances!”   $12.00

James Goll re: the Recent Presidential Elections

I include this recent prophecy from James Goll [from here] for information purposes, not because I think it is either true and accurate – so beware when reading it! This also seems to me to be a reactive ‘prophecy’ to Barack Obama winning the election - that is prophesying with the benefit of hindsight, looking for meaning after the event and making something one says apparently fit events. [He calls it 'redemptive interpretation', I call it 'hooey'. This is not to say it is wrong to enquire of God about either the past or the present, although I'd do away with the fancy names - my issue is not with that at all, but rather in how  James Goll  prophesies and what  James Goll actually comes out when he prophesies.]

James Goll has decided that because a black man got into office, ‘God’ is healing the wound and rift of the black people and their dignity will be restored. And then James Goll has decided that ‘God’ is saying abortion will cease because of it too.

[I think what he is effectively saying, albeit not in so many words, is that the Christian Right will get what they want eventually [and what really matters, the end of abortion], but in the meantime let’s humor all the African Americans so they get ‘healed’.]

“Sorting Out The Recent National Elections

By James Goll, Nov 18, 2008

I have been asked by many to give my perspective concerning the recent historic elections in which Barack Obama was elected President of the United States for the next four years. The political arena has carried great interest to me for years, so I attempt to be an informed religious leader. I do not just routinely vote along “party lines”. While I have some non-negotiable issues, like many of you, I pray; I research; I listen and I consult with others. Please understand I voted for the team that lost – not for the ticket that won.

It is true, I have grave concerns about the incoming administration due to their apparent liberal stances on issues that could adversely affect our judicial appointments, potential rulings concerning the sanctity of life and marriage and other moral concerns. One of the areas that concerns me the most – in any administration – as it affects the future destiny of our nation – is how we align ourselves concerning Israel, Jerusalem, and the complex issues of the Middle East. Nations have risen and fallen in prominence – judgment and blessing – on this issue alone. So – I have many foreboding concerns, as do many of my colleagues of the faith and in specific those in the global prayer community. 

But I ask for your patience as I briefly attempt to give you a perspective from my chair on the times and days in which we live. Realize, we each only see in part and thus we each only speak in part. That is why we need each other as well as multiple voices weighing in on a particular matter. I know some of what I am about to present is a little different, so bear with me for a moment. Okay? 

I have said for years that I am either a republicrat or a demopublican. I have also been known to say in the past several months, that if I had another life to live – I would start a third viable political party in the United States. I would take the supposed moral values of the right wing and wed them with the social justice issues of the left wing. God’s throne is established on justice and righteousness. After all, it takes both wings stretched out for the eagle to fly! 8 years ago one of our presidential candidates stated that what this nation needed was “compassionate conservatism.” I agreed then, and I agree still to this day. One of the things I learned from my deceased wife, it is time for compassion that takes action. 

Redemptive Interpretation 

So what about the results of the national elections? I often ask the Holy Spirit to give me what I call a “redemptive interpretation” of the times. We cannot change what has happened – we must live in the reality of what is – we cannot not dwell on what could have been – nor should we be kicking ourselves that we did not do enough – that never pays off for any person in any situation. I did a national radio interview this past week and one person was so disturbed with the results of the elections, they stated that they wanted to move to New Zealand. Yes, some are mad, some are sad and some are glad. Thus is a democracy at it’s best! 

But I kept stating the same phrase over and over in my interview. I could not get away from it. What I am about to state is not “the word of the Lord” but it is “a word from the Lord.” Always, remember, the man on the hill is not the man on the throne! Did you hear me? The man on the hill is not the man on the throne! 

I think we should rise above our little mindsets and get back into worship and prayer and seek the full council of God. Think bigger! 

Daniel gave counsel to the evil ruler of his day – Nebuchadnezzar. Joseph was raised up as a consultant to Egypt’s Pharaoh. Young future King David kept his heart pure while Saul was in power. I am not suggesting that president elect Obama is likened unto any of these evil rulers. But it is all the more time for the word of the Lord to come forth for those in authority. It is not time to shy away from crying for mercy on our land! It is time to step up to the plate and seize the moment! Wow, I think I read somewhere that “light shines best in darkness.” So come on now – let’s shine!

 A Vision of Oil Being Poured on a Deep Rift! 

While I was in worship and prayer with a group of leaders in Nashville, TN this past week a clear word from the Lord came to me. In a spiritual vision, I saw something that appeared like the Grand Canyon – it represented a wide and deep rift that historically existed in the nation’s history. As I continued to look, I saw oil being poured upon the deep rift in this land. The oil seeped into the crevice and went deep into the land. [ Very interesting - this WAS Chuck Pierce’s Vision ] 

Then I heard the words, “Some of you think I have forgotten all your prayers and fasting concerning the genocide of children in this generation, but I have not. I see deeper and wider in history than man. I see with a length and breadth that man does not see. I have not forgotten your prayers and tears concerning the end of the genocide of children in this generation.” 

As these words were coming I saw two doors – a door of the past and a door of the future. Then as I continued in worship more words flowed into my being, “Man asks, What is the Lord doing?’ I am pouring oil into the historic rift of this land. I will heal this land. But there must be a closing of the door of genocide of the past before there can be a shutting of the door of the genocide of the present. I am going to the root of genocide in this land and I am pouring my healing oil on this great rift. I will heal the bitter root of the African American people and restore dignity to them. If you will look upon their faces, if you will let their pain touch your heart, you will see that I am pouring oil upon this great rift in this land. One door leads to the other door. You cannot close the door of genocide today without cleansing the wound and shutting the door of genocide of the past. 

Then the audacious God that He is challenged us Caucasian spiritual leaders to praise the Lord as though we were in Ebenezer Baptist Church in Atlanta, Georgia. So we sang and our songs, swayed with the music and praised the Lord! We clapped our hands and we gave the sacrifice of praise to the one who sits on the throne. We declared together that He is pouring oil on the injustices of the past and in faith both doors of genocide will be shut. Now do I understand all of this? Do I know how all of this will happen? No! But our trust is not in men but in the name of the Lord who is mighty to save!

 So What Are You Really Saying?

We ought always to pray and never give up! The man on the hill is not the man on the throne! Light shines best in darkness! God has a higher vision and His ways are not our ways! We must get God’s redemptive interpretation! God is pouring His healing oil on injustices of the past! God has not forgotten our prayers! It is time to seize the moment! It is time as watchmen to praise the Lord! 

So there is a peak of the view from the chair that I sit in. I hope this incomplete perspective will yield light to your path as we search Him in these turbulent times. 

Sincerely,
James W. Goll
President of Encounters Network
International Director of Prayer Storm”

Deliverance From Evil – Hillsong’s Mercy Ministries

Article from here, 26th November 2008

‘There’s no exorcism – that’s not how the program works’: Hillsong’s earlier denial

THE HANDBOOK: Leaked photocopies of the Mercy Ministries guide

“Handbooks allegedly used to perform exorcisms on sick girls at the controversial Mercy Ministries residences in Sydney and on the Sunshine Coast have been leaked to LIVENEWS.com.au.

Mercy Ministries, which is bankrolled by the Pentecostal Hillsong Church, has previously denied performing exorcisms on residents.

The documents, obtained clandestinely by a girl who “escaped” the group’s clutches, shows counsellors how to rid ‘demons’ from girls struggling with anorexia, depression and drug addiction.

Mercy Ministries’ activities hit the headlines in March this year when former residents claimed they were subjected to exorcisms, were cut off from friends and family and had to sign over their Centrelink payments to the group.

Some of the young women say they had little or no access to the promised psychologists and other mental health professionals but were instead counselled by bible studies students whose solution to all problems was prayer.

Earlier this year the then head of Mercy Ministries, Peter Irvine, said exorcisms were not practised at the residences. Mercy Ministries has been forced to shut their Sunshine Coast residence.

“There’s no exorcism, no driving out of spirits it’s not how the program works,” he told Today Tonight’s Marguerite McKinnon earlier this year.

But the handbooks tell a different story and corroborate accounts given to LIVENEWS.com.au by former residents of Mercy Ministries.

In the handbook, under a section entitled ‘Identifying Additional Demons’ those practising the exorcism are advised to ask the demon’s name, but not for any more details.

“They sometimes talk: they may threaten the person or you. They have been know to say, ‘I am going to kill you,’ and other unsavoury phrases. Command them to be quiet in the Name of Jesus,” the book advises.

Later, the book, Restoring The Foundations, published by an American Christian group, warns those exorcising demons to be firm.

“The minister’s attitude is one of commanding,” it reads.

“He needs to be firm and prepared to press in. He does not need to be loud. (Demons are not deaf.) The ministers’ commanding attitude resembles that of a person speaking to a little “yappy” dog commanding him to go home and stop barking.

“We also want the ministry receiver to set his will to resist and then command the particular demon or grouping of demons to leave him, in Jesus’ name. This is repeated until the demons are gone.”

Later in the book, those performing the exorcism are given more complex techniques in a subheading called ‘What to do With Obstinate Demons’.

Later a list of ‘Scriptures that Demons Hate’ is provided.

“But if I with the finger of God cast out devils, no doubt the kingdom of God is come upon you,” is one such passage singled out.

The emergence of the exorcism handbook lends weight to other claims made by girls who went through the Mercy Ministries program.

Megan Smith (not her real name), who spoke to LIVENEWS.com.au earlier this year, said her panic attacks only got worse.

“I was self-harming,” she said.

“I was cutting my arm with anything I could get my hands on – scratching with anything from my nails to paper clips.

“I never really had a problem with self-harm beforehand. When you tell them about self-harming they said I was trying to get attention and I was taking their valuable time away from girls with real problems.”

Finally, she was subjected to an exorcism.

“The counsellor gave me a list of different demons – demon of anger, demon of unforgiveness, demon of pride, there were lots of them and I was told to go away and circle the demons I had in me or around me,” said Smith.

“I was really scared… they cast demons out of me, one by one, and they became quite excited and animated during the process, and spoke in tongues.

“It was the counsellors and myself and they put their hands on me and started praying one by one for each of the demons that were on the list to be cast out of me.

“After each demon was cast out I had to say ‘I confirm the demon of X has been cast out of me in the name of Jesus and is unwelcome to return.’

“The whole time I was there, all I heard was that I’m demonic.

“Even after the exorcism, when I had the next anxiety attack, I was told that they had already cast the demons out, so therefore I was obviously either faking it, or I had chosen to let the demons come back, in which case I was not serious about getting better.

“They kept telling us that the world can’t help us, professionals with all their ‘worldly qualifications’ can’t help us, only Mercy could because only they have God’s power.

“So when I was kicked out for being ‘demonic, unable to be helped, not worth a place at Mercy’ and because I had taken too long to pray to become a Christian… it left me worse than I had ever been before in my life.

“They told me I would never get better now because I had blown my chance. I started cutting my arms and wrists more than ever, with their voices echoing in my mind as I did it.”

Suicidal and self-harming after being removed from the program, which she now thought was her only hope, she went to see a “proper psychologist to prepare me to go back to Mercy to help me fit in better.”

“The psychologist had never heard of them but told me to stay away from them… that person helped me more in the 40 minute session – really listening to me and understanding me.”

LIVENEWS.com.au has contacted Mercy Ministries for comment and is still awaiting a response

Bill Yount: Don’t Speak Recession & When We Open Our Mouth We Are Prophesying!

Here follows a recent prophecy from Bill Yount [aka the Anointed Candy Bar King - see here as to why the name].

Note apart from the scripture twisting, false prophecy and the blatant heretical positive confession/word of faith theology [see articles on Rotten Roots of Word Faith and Positive and Negative Confession] - note also Bill Yount’s completrly crazy ideas about prophecy. 

Bill Yount says that whenever we open our mouth we are prophesying, which is complete and utter rubbish and not logical, least of all biblical. For we can only truly prophesy if  and when  the Spirit of God comes upon us in power and enables us to prophesy. God manifests the gift as and when He wills within the people He wills. And not all are prophets. Those who claim they can prophesy ‘on demand’ any time they like about anything they like are false prophets. For God speaks when He wills to speak, to the person He wills to speak the message to, in the manner He chooses - not when any old person decides to prophesy.

The true prophet listens to God and then conveys His message, whatever it is [the prophet has control over the timing and delivery of the message only after  God speaks. He certainly does not have control of the actual contents of the message that he should deliver, nor when God speaks the message]. It is not the case of the prophet commanding and creating or decreeing the message on his own initiative as and when he wants for anything he  wants. It is all about God!

Though the prophet can certainly seek God on any matter of their choosing and can control prophecy to a certain extent  by their obedience, availability, eagerness, faith, and their seeking and their enquiries - – for all their faithfulness, works, their willingness or lack of it, THEY still CANNOT create or dictate the original message.  THAT IS GOD’S JOB! I can enquire of the Lord, certainly. I cannot guarantee I will get an answer when I want it, or dictate when that answer will come, and I certainly cannot say before time what the answer will be – if I can do that then I prophesy only in the flesh!

Anyway, that all said, Bill Yount’s ideas, I guess, explain in some part how some folks can sincerely blind themselves to think they are not  false prophets by positively confessing their way out of the ever-deepening holes they dig for themselves. Like all false prophets, I have noted the over-focus on money. How does Yount talk his way out of that one, I wonder?

“Don’t Speak Recession, but Speak More than Enough!
by Bill Yount

“MY TESTIMONY IS CHANGING TO BE MORE THANKFUL FOR WHAT MONEY CANNOT BUY….”I’M BREATHING, MY HEART IS BEATING, AND I HAVE A PULSE!…. I’M A RICH MAN!”  1 Thessalonians 5:18

1 Thessalonians 5:18 “In everything give thanks for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.”

It is so important for everyone one of us to be in the will of God this hour. This verse tells us how to get there!  “In everything  give thanks!” Could being thankful possibly cancel your personal ‘recession’, or a possible coming ‘drepression’ that man is telling you about? I believe we need to celebrate ‘Thanksgiving’ every day starting now!

“HAS YOUR MOUTH SPOKEN THE WORD ‘RECESSION’ OR ‘A POSSIBLE COMING DEPRESSION’?  IF SO….REPENT!”  Proverbs 13:2,3    How many times have we said, “I’m broke, I’m sick, I’m catching a cold” and watched it come to pass? Little do we realize that when we open our mouth we are prophesying!  Why not say…”I have all the money I will ever need! I am catching another healing! Colds can’t catch up with me, for goodness and mercy follow me all the days of my life! My two angels, ‘goodness’ and ‘mercy’ take care of me!

Proverbs 13:2,3 ( the book of wisdom )  2.”A man shall eat good by the fruit of his mouth….” 3. He that keepeth his mouth keepeth his life; but he that openeth wide his lips shall eat violence.”

IF A COIN WAS FOUND IN A FISH”S MOUTH, MAYBE THERE IS A CONNECTION BETWEEN OUR MOUTH AND OUR MONEY! Matthew 17:27

Matthew 17:27 “Not withstanding, lest we should offend the government, go to the sea and cast a hook and take up the fish that first comes up. And when you open his mouth you will find a piece of money. Take the money, give to them for Me and you.”   ( paraphrased )

I heard a saying once that even a fish would stay out of trouble if it learned to keep its mouth shut!

In the Spirit I saw words coming out of the mouths of God’s people that appeared to be forming chain like links hooking together. These were negative words and with each comment the chain grew thicker wrapping itself around the object we were complaining about. One of the largest chains I saw was wrapping around finances. Each time someone would say, “I don’t have enough money,” this chain became reinforced with strength, wrapping tighter around that person’s wallet or purse and bank account. As this complaining continued, I saw huge locks coming upon these chains, as a spirit of poverty and depression began to be released from hell to fulfill the words that were being spoken!

“THOU ART SNARED WITH THE WORDS OF YOUR MOUTH, THOU ART TAKEN WITH THE WORDS OF YOUR LIPS.” Proverbs 6:2

I saw enormous chains come over whole ministries and churches. Wherever two or more people were gathered together and began to say, “We don’t have enough money for this or that in our ministry or church,” huge chains began to wrap around whole ministries, congregations, pulpits and altar rails. I saw a muzzle come over the mouths of many pastors when just a few church members spoke in agreement, saying, “We can’t afford to pay him that much!” Chains from hell started growing around that pastor’s whole family as the spirit of poverty continued to increase in churches, like a little leaven leavening the whole lump! I saw churches closing as chains and locks were being installed on their front doors as the spirit of poverty overcame many members, stopping them from giving tithes and offerings.

BREATHING QUALIFIES US TO WORSHIP!  Psalm 150:6

Psalm 150:6 “Let everything that has breath praise the Lord.”

I then saw in the Spirit one person stand up in a church that was about to close its doors. This person began lifting up his wallet toward heaven and began thanking God that he even had a wallet. Though nothing was inside his wallet, he began praising God that he had the breath to praise Him in spite of his lack of finances. As this man began lifting up his wallet with thanksgiving and praise, the chain snapped off of it and the Lord spoke audibly to this church. “Let everything that has breath praise Me. In everything give thanks.” A revelation was breaking forth upon God’s people that just breathing qualifies us to praise and worship Him! “Let everything that has breath, praise the Lord!” Psalm 150:6

“BY YOUR WORDS, YOU SHALL BE JUSTIFIED…..”  Matthew 12:37

“In God We Trust!” became a sermon as someone pulled out his last dollar bill and began to prophesy what was written on our money. Our money was now preaching to us to not to trust in it but trust in our God!  ‘Don’t count your money…read it!’ As ministries, churches and their members rediscovered that God was their source, they were freed as the chains and locks began to melt in the presence of the Lord!

SOME OFFERINGS HAD TO BE STOPPED….”WE HAVE ENOUGH MONEY WITH LEFTOVERS!”

A fresh oil of giving flowed upon God’s people as they became thankful. I saw a key turning in the vault of the bank in heaven and finances from this bank began filling wallets, purses, ministries, and churches with whatever they needed. Money that was not minted by man was at times discovered!  Some offerings given were going over the top and some pastors began declaring, “We have enough money, with leftovers!

Thanksgiving seemed to reverse and chase away the spirit of poverty, recession and every kind of depression known to man. Not only physical, but spiritual, emotional, mental and yes, our needs were still being met according to His riches in glory!”
