RESTORation

I was in a dream in the mid hours of the night when I heard the Lord say unto me, “Chase, 2011 will be the year of restoration for all my people who believe.” I took this to the Lord and felt His unction and again He spoke to me saying, “That in this month He is going to take a measure of all the things stolen, robbed, and lost to sin…and He is going to restore it and multiply to it.” Then I felt in my spirit that this will pave the way for a period of refreshing renewal that would result from the presence of the Lord with His people. He wants to restore everything with the power and work of His Holy Spirit and release purity without measure. The sifting will begin this month in order that His unshakable Kingdom may be revealed.

 

Restore- literally means to bring back to a former or original condition. Whenever something is restored in the scriptures (Exodus 22:1), however, it is always increased, multiplied, or improved so that its latter state is significant ally better than its original state. (Joel 2:12) “But even now,” declares the Lord, “return to me with all your heart—with fasting, crying, and mourning.” Tear your hearts, not your clothes. Return to the Lord your God. He is merciful and compassionate, patient, and always ready to forgive and to change his plans about disaster.  Schedule a time to fast. Call for an assembly. Gather the people. Prepare them for a holy meeting. Assemble the leaders. Then the Lord became concerned about his land, and he had pity on his people. The Lord said to his people, “I am going to send grain, new wine, and olive oil to you. You will be satisfied with them. “Then I will repay you for the years that the mature locusts, the adult locusts, the grasshoppers, and the young locusts ate your crops. I am the Lord your God, and there is no other.”   

WORD from GOD: “I want you all to be directly related to Me, hearing Me, responding to Me, and living from My abundant life. So many of you consistently have thought to earn My acceptance by your own performance. I hate this, I want you to be restored from this way of thinking and be directly related to Me, hearing Me, and responding out of love to Me. And everything here that has been built by mans hands, in the energy and wisdom of the flesh will be shaken down. Only the things that cannot be shaken—the things which I built with my eternal power and wisdom will remain.
