The Lord's Anointed Children
Three weeks ago in our Sunday morning worship service the Lord did some very unusual things.
While I was dancing with the children in a large circle in the front of the church the Lord instructed
me to tell the children to go and get an adult to come up front and dance, I was skeptical that the children would be willing
to do that but in obedience to the Lord I drew them all close to me and instructed them to go and get the adults. All
but one child said, "Yeah!!!!" and off they went in search of willing participants. A few people came to the front and
danced with the children. After a few moments the Lord said, "Send them again" and so I did. This time a few more dancers
joined the children. It was so joyous and the presence of the Lord was very strong.
The Lord spoke to me and said, "I love them all but there are
some things that give me much pleasure and that is to see children and men dance, the women are always willing to dance
before me and I love that but I am calling them all to come and dance and celebrate with me but the adults were not hearing
my invitation so I sent the children to bring them into the celebration."
Isa. 11:6...and a little child will lead them.
As we continued to dance and celebrate before the Lord the children went
and got flags and banners and worshiped the Lord with all their hearts. A ten year old girl came up to me and said that we
were suppose to sing the song "Stir the Water" so I sent her to tell the worship leader and the worship team began to sing
this song. The children went and got matah's (a rod) and began to march around the river banner. The weighty glory of
the Lord came in and people began to march with the children. The Lord spoke to me again and told me that He would use
the children to speak to the congregation.
Matt.21:12-16 Then Jesus went into the temple...overturned the tables of the money
changers...healed the blind and the lame...upset the chief priests because they saw the wonderful things Jesus did and they
heard the children crying out in the temple, "Hosanna to the Son of David" the chief priests ask
Jesus, "Do you hear what these are saying?" Jesus said to them, "Yes, have you never read, Out of the mouth of babes and nursing
infants You have perfected praise?"
The same little girl came to me and said, "I have something
to say to the congregation." I told her, yes, I know and in just a moment you can do that. The weight of the Lord was growing
heavier and heavier and more adults were now following the children as they marched around the church, many were having trouble
walking because of the weighty glory but they kept following the children. People came forward for prayer and were healed
and one young woman gave her life to Jesus for the first time! The little girl was tugging on my arm, she said,"I
have to say something." So I had everyone stop and listen to her and she told them, "I saw big chains on peoples
ankles and then I saw them fall off when they were worshiping and that is when God told me to tell them
to sing "Stir the Water" She was very excited that God had spoken to her.
The worship music picked up again and the children got banners and began
to wave them up and down and several adults at the same time sat down on the floor under the banners, the children were not
tall enough to hold the banners high enough for the adults to stand under so people just sat or laid on the floor under
those banners. The children kept waving the banners up and down and with every billow came waves and waves
of the Holy Spirit filling the room, almost everyone was on the floor under the banners even the one and two year olds laying
there perfectly still. It was one of the longest services we have ever had even though no one preached. The children
just kept waving the banners and no one could get up off the floor nor did they even want to.
Mark 10:13-16 Then they brought little children unto Him, that He
might touch them; but the disciples rebuked those who brought them. But when Jesus saw it, He was greatly displeased and said
to them, "Let the little children come to Me, and do not forbid them; for of such is the kingdom of God. Assuredly, I say
to you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God as a little child will by no means enter it." And He took them up in His
arms, laid His hands on them, and bless them.
Matt. 11:25 I praise You, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because You
have hidden these things from the wise and learned, and revealed them to little children. Yes, Father, for this was Your good
pleasure.
Acts 2:17 In the last days...your sons and daughters will prophesy
There is coming a stronger anointing on the children than we have seen
in the past and the children will be preaching and prophesying and laying hands on the sick.The children will begin to direct
the flow of the service. They have a willingness to obey the directions of the Holy Spirit with boldness. Children
will be praying over the prayer requests in simple heart felt faith. The glory of the Lord will come upon the children and
they will have visions and give very accurate prophesies. Now is the time to step up to the plate and begin to train
them and disciple them as you would any adult.
Make room for the children!!!!
