I had dinner with Brother Wade Taylor recently, and I was stunned by how young he looked. Without using hair color, or any other cosmetic fixes, he looked at least 20 years younger than the last time I saw him. He said that he also felt better than he had in many years. When I asked him what his secret was, he remarked simply that he takes communion every day. He believes that the Lord is a "quickening Spirit" who will "quicken our mortal bodies." I know many who believe, but I think that Brother Taylor is actually touching on something.

We are often blamed for wrong prophecies that other people give, and as usual, this was the case with the Y2K debacle. I shared often over the last year that when I sought the Lord about Y2K He did not say anything to me for months. When I asked why He was not speaking to me about it, He said that He was not speaking because it was not going to be anything. When I called Bob Jones and asked him what the Lord had shown him about it, he said to not get caught up in the hype about Y2K. Few listened, including many prophetic people whom we know.

We are now entering one of the greatest watershed periods in human history. Creation itself is charged with the electricity of these times and is beginning to groan and travail for what is about to come. Never has there been a more exciting time to be alive. The kingdom of God is coming.

A new breed of leadership will soon arise in the Body of Christ. The coming spiritual generation will not be content to wander in circles in the wilderness, and the coming leadership will be like Joshua and Caleb to lead them into the Promised Land.

The following words are from a conversation I had with Bob Jones on February 17, 1998. I tried to write them just as he said them. —Rick Joyner

Our Anger Will Be Turned to Love

Each year on the Day of Atonement, Bob Jones has been given a panoramic vision of coming events. The following is an abbreviated version of what Bob received on October 11, 1997, as written by Keith Davis. My comments are in italics--Rick Joyner

The Coming Rain

I was awakened at 2:22 A.M. to hear the Spirit say, "I am going to rain on the brain of My people."

A vision by Bob Jones:In a prophetic experience, Bob was awakened by an attack of swarming flies. Because they kept him from being able to rest, he went to see where they were coming from. He found an open sewer. Christians had been dumping their garbage at the opening and not covering it up, so the flies were able to breed on it. He was told to seal the sewer with a round clay tile, which he was told was the tongue.

Default version: NAS

The following are strategic revelations that were received by those whose prophetic gifts we have come to trust. Even so, they are shared with the understanding that the Lord is doing different things in different places, and we do not expect these words to apply to everyone. Also, as most of the interpretations and applications are given by me, they may not be the same as what would be given by the one receiving the revelation.--Rick Joyner
