THE DECADE OF THE DETERMINED
By Randy DeMain
As we exit from the womb of the past decade, many will experience different levels and periods of birthing pains as we come forth into the transitional labor of the 10 centimeters mark for birthing. All that has been growing during the last decade has come into it's full term month in 2009. It's important to have good midwives (intercessors) to bring forth your vision and purpose for 2010.
As we look into the new decade, we will have to deal with the mess and demands of new birth. Diligence and commitment will bring maturity to the vision and purpose in our hearts. Don't over dress and pamper the new baby. It's nature is more of the "man child" (Revelation 12:5) than an ordinary infant. This child must learn to overcome and survive at an early age. For great will his stature and influence be in this decade.
The church is in transition. The awakening many of us have been speaking of the past several years is now gaining an audience in a wider arena of numbers and influence. Years of faithfulness of those like Zacharias and Elizabeth (Luke 1) is going to be suddenly rewarded. We will begin to move from barrenness to fruitfulness by supernatural revelation from our altars of incense. That which is being birthed will give a body and voice to lead the way in this time of transition. The body and voice is none other that the spirit and power of Elijah. The message is clear "The Kingdom of heaven is at hand, prepare the way of the Lord".
John the Baptist came the first time, in the spirit and power of Elijah as a forerunner of the first coming of Christ, with a message of repentance. This time he is coming with the fire power to confront and overthrow the idolatry and works of darkness with signs, wonders and miracles. In the past we have confronted without much victory. This will be a different season. Our confrontations will result in sweeping victories!
This decade will be marked by dramatic power encounters, city transformations, and the restoration of the true prophetic voice. Ahab and Jezebel will be put on the run. The worship of Baal will be removed from the true church.
Other things I have seen for this decade in a positive sense include the following;
A revival of inner healing (3 John 2)
Inner healing had a difficult beginning years ago. Few saw it as a legitimate ministry. As with new types of ministry, there is a wide range of trial and error, qualified and unqualified people involved. As qualified people have emerged with a consistent language and terminology, now great advances can be made in SHORT PERIODS OF TIME. The grace and presence of the Holy Spirit will allow healing and restoration to come more quickly than traditional or secular methods. Many people will
finally receive their physical healing held back by emotional issues of the past. Truly Jesus carried an anointing to "heal the broken hearted" (Luke 4:19) even so, Christ like healers will arise and heal many releasing prosperity in every area.
Soaking to surging (Ps. 149:6-9).
The present moves of soaking and worship will begin to transition into high praise to advance the kingdom of God. While these wonderful places had their purpose to re-acquaint the body with their lover and Lord, it's now time to arise from soaking to surging, from worship to warring. It's time to execute the written judgment. Soaking and worship will remain effective on a personal basis.
The trumpets are being formed and priest being prepared to sound them.
(Numbers 10). From a dramatic encounter recently in South Africa, the Lord said "The cloud is moving, prepare to move out". The order in which we shall move is; first Judah, then Issachar, then Zebulun. Each of these forerunner tribes will come forth in this order beginning in 2010 to 2012. The virtues of their names will be the essence of what God is doing over the next 3 years.
It's time to go through Samaria again ( John 4:4-10).
Many trapped in false doctrine and religion will be drawn out and saved as we are led by the Holy Spirit into divine encounters. It is the "living water" the world is thirsty for. We have what it takes to draw out this water and share it with the thirsty.
Launch out into the deep (Luke 5;4).
Many believers feel like Simeon Peter "Master we have toiled all night and caught nothing". Traditional methods of evangelism are having minimal effect at reaching this generation. It's time to go off the deep end and use power evangelism by the gifts of the Holy Spirit. As equipping ministries continue to arise, power evangelism will become more main stream. Just when the equipping schools thought they had taught everyone, the other streams will notice their catch and come along side. The key to success at this type of evangelism is "nevertheless, at Your word I will let down the net". Use of spiritual gifts and equipping by presumption and zeal is not what God is looking for. He is looking for partners who will hear and obey
His voice..
On a negative side, here is some of what we can stand against in prayer, be proactive in responses and exercise our right to vote;
Signs in the sky-signs in the earth (Gen 1-14;6:1-4). 2012 to 2016 will awaken a generation to the voice of the Lord in the
cosmos. God will begin speaking to us again, from the heavens, confirming biblical events through stellar displays in the sky. There will be an unmasking of evil in our generation like that in the days of Noah. We will have a period of disrupted services. More conventional means of communication and transportation will be utlilized.
France will offer to dance (Prov 11:10).
This decade will see France give favor to Judism in their midst, even blessing Israel. With the demise of the wicked there is a song.
The united independent states of America.
I saw in a vision, wicked spirits stirring up America to divide her through governmental oppresion and socialist agendas. In this vision, many states had withdrawn from the union, they were still connected as Americans, but sovereign over their laws, policies and states. They had become unable and unwilling to support more government. Only the 13 original colonies remained intact to hold together the sovereignty of the United States. As the government shifted back to a government by the people and for the people, a woman rose out of the midst of the ashes to lead the country again as one Nation under God (An unexpected result for the enemy) most states rejoined, some remained independent, yet connected. Martial law and police states emerged during this time due to earthquakes and volcanoes erupting from the Cascade mountain range, across the Pacific rim even to Africa. This was clearly not God's plan, but a plan of the wicked one, through the prince of Persia to weaken America rending her powerless by division.
Economic news:
In the previous years, I have released many things regarding finances. This year, the Lord is having me remain mostly silent in this arena. However, on a global level, this decade will see several countries re-value their currency. New looking money will appear, all working toward a single currency world wide. The new currency will be based in value from the country of origin and it's ability to pay. New sources of gold will be found, even in Australia. New ways of mining will also come forth. Terrorism will strike America and Arab oil supply lines in an effort to weaken financial strength of nations or governments opposing Islamic agenda's. "Scratch terrorism" will keep many out of crowded public places as terrorist will "scratch" people with toxins infecting them unto death.
The bride will continue to arise and shine and sons of righteousness will arise with healing in their wings. (Is. 60; Mal. 4)
Global warming will be undeniably proven false. Nevertheless proponents will continue to carry forth it's tenets as a means to shift wealth from developed nations to lesser ones as a means to control resources.
The first human clone will be revealed in this decade. It will primarily have a military purpose. Life on other planets will be announced, as the beginning of a new wave of deception comes forth. The discovery of non human species will be reported.
An "accidental" nuclear device will be exploded, escalating tension and exchanges with Israel and Iran. Turkey will be in the news. The alliance of North Korea, Russia and other eastern and Arabic alliances will become more evident as we move toward the Ezekiel 38 war.
Righteousness, peace and joy (Rom.14:17)
Believers who are firmly established in the Kingdom of God will continue to advance. Supernatural provision and protection will keep us moving. The joy of the Lord will be our strength. Pockets of "Goshen" like communities will be discovered in the midst of great darkness. It's time to arise and shine, redeem the time and be a restorer of the streets to dwell in.(Is 58). Position yourself to be a transfer station for the wealth coming to the saints. Unprecedented wealth will suddenly over take many from investments, inheritances and the kings who come to the brightness of your rising! There are many other things the Lord is speaking, but suffice are these words for this time. Love one another and keep yourself from idols.
