Lightning illuminates the sky like the simultaneous flash of ten thousands cameras.
The tent of prayer whips and bucks in the wind causing loose poles fall over with loud clangs.
Gatherer and I stand outside the tent and I run to put the fallen poles back up and tighten the ropes.
While I am tightening the ropes I apologize to the Holy Spirit for my bad stewardship.
Me:
“Forgive me Lord, I should have double checked these ropes before I slept last night.”
Suddenly a voice speaks from behind me inside the tent.
New voice:
“Azrael stands beside him. And still he concerns himself with fallen poles and loosened ropes?”
Gatherer:
“Well met brother, you will like this Courier as I do.
Come son of sorrow, leave the ropes.
Barachiel has come. Let us enter the tent of prayer together.”
I give the last rope a reassuring tug and head inside the tent.
So that you may understand scale, the tent can handle about one hundred chairs or so. It is a great start for our house of prayer but a particularly nice size for me to pray by myself because I like to pace up and down when I pray.
It is a marquee tent with two longer poles in the middle. The new angel stands between the two poles, his face shining with glory. He is the same height as Gatherer, two heads taller than I am, but I see that he wears some kind of armor instead of the loose fitting clothing that I have seen on the others.
I take note that he called Gatherer ‘Azrael’ and that Gatherer called him Barachiel.
He speaks immediately as we enter.
Barachiel:
“Well met Watchman. For the sake of what you record and for accurate, contextual emotional connection you may record my name as ‘Guardian’ and I shall refer to you as ‘Courier’.
Me:
“Understood.”
Gatherer:
“In the heavenly realm, Barachiel is an archangel who commands hundreds of thousands of guardian angels. But these are guardians of a different kind. They are Seraphim as Zephkiel, the one you call ‘Breakthrough’ is.
They guard glory and blessing. In the earthly realm, they are angels of war and very specific strategy. You could probably call them our heavenly special forces. Their task is counter attacks by principalities who devour resources. They are the ones who spring to action when the son rebukes the devourer for you. Barachiel leads them and, when on earth, he reports directly to Michael. As Seraphim, they are empowered by worship. They are the precise instruments that the Holy Spirit uses to break specific yokes of sin. They break chains when you sing praises to God and they destroy yokes when you are drenched in anointing oil.”
Guardian:
“How is it that a Courier has Azrael introducing us”
Gatherer:
“I consider him a friend.”
Guardian:
“I accept your judgement.”
Gatherer:
“Zaphkiel too had his reservations, but this Courier is obedient. He will do as you instruct.”
Guardian:
“Courier: Do you know who vouches for you? Do you know the authority of Azrael? It is only he who is permitted to give and take away outside of all natural law. He is the left hand of judgement and the right hand of mercy. He is of the same rank as Michael. How does this make you feel?”
Me:
“If you are trying to test me or see if any of this has any effect on my ego, you may as well leave now. I have seen angels, miracles, demons and all sorts of other signs and wonders. None of this means anything to me unless we eradicate poverty. As far as I am concerned, until I see real results in the real world, you are all just figments of an overactive imagination. And if this offends you, I give you full permission, of my own free will, to take my life. I’m not here to waste time on stupid tests. Either we get rid of poverty or just let me sleep. I care for nothing but the advance of the kingdom and the growing urgency within me begins to boil into a passion that I struggle to contain.”
Guardian:
“Let us then unleash that passion Courier. Come, worship with me!”
He goes down on bended knee and faces the stage that we have built inside the tent.
Guardian:
“The Holy Spirit is omnipresent. He is everywhere. But know this, He bodily dwells within the places of honor that you choose to assign Him. Let you and I proclaim this tent His place of honor and let us proclaim the stage His platform. When you come to pray, bring your favorite chair and place it upon the stage as His seat of honor. Be specific in how you honor Him, be intentional. Be obsessive in physical acts of honor. He is the key to everything. The Son is the promise of the Father and the Holy Spirit is the promise of the Son. The Son is the manifestation of impossible law and judgement. The Holy Spirit is the manifestation of impossible grace and mercy. To place honor upon the Holy Spirit is to place honor upon all that the Son has done. The words of the Son do not go beyond the eyes of man without the revelation of the Holy Spirit.
The place of authority in this tent is the stage. Let us then turn towards the stage and worship and listen.
You may place Him upon the throne of your heart or belly. But you and I shall give Him the stage so that He may speak corporate instruction and not just personal healing.
Do you know how selfish believers have become? Do you know that they try to keep the glory of God to themselves? Do you know that you are supposed to receive the promise in your upper room and then take it outside so that thousands may be added to your number daily?
This tent shall be our upper room Courier. You and I shall drench the molecules of this floor and tent with such anointing that the tent itself shall break yokes. I shall continue my duties as I am instructed by the Holy Spirit but this tent shall be my home for a time and you shall find me here whenever you are here. I shall guard the glory within this place and we shall make it a special, sacred place you and I. For from here we shall wage war upon the arguments that attempt to dethrone the knowledge of God.
But be very careful who you allow in this tent. Warn them sternly. Ananias and Sapphira were but two of many who you may use as an example. For it is plain to me that Azrael, the one you call Gatherer, shall take up residence here for a time and as I protect glory and blessing, he separates wheat from chaff.”
Me:
“Gatherer, may I ask that none die upon this land?”
Gatherer:
“If any die, it shall not be by my hand. But if any come to taint this work of unity with negative words or curses from their lips, I will cut off their supply and bring them to ruin. For once Barachiel is sent to a place, blessing and glory take up residence. And He and I shall protect that glory and blessing with fierce loyalty. For the kingdom of God must advance and a base of operations is being established here.”
Guardian:
“Word shall spread that I have taken up residence. For it was thus when I accompanied the ark unto the house of Obed Edom. And many shall come here expecting great miracles and blessings.
Now you must listen well Courier:
“People can pray anywhere and the glory of God shall accompany their prayer. This tent is not an exclusive place of glory and blessing. It is our, yours and mine, exclusive place of prayer. I will not walk with you upon the land as the other angels do. I will only meet with you here.
Others will certainly find it very easy to connect to glory and blessing in this tent and they shall come from all over the world to do so because their faith shall be increased by expectation. Be careful to warn them though. I will not tolerate dishonor in this place and nether shall Azrael.
They may lay strips of cloth or handkerchiefs upon the tent for a transfer of anointing and lay it upon the sick. But this is simply a boost of faith for as believers, they can I part the same themselves. But their faith is shaken by the realities of this world and they need any help their faith can get.
Do not advertise the anointing upon this place as if it were exclusive. Simply worship with me and receive the extremely precise instructions you will receive.
Take careful note Courier:
If people want impartation, it takes hours and days. Sometimes weeks, months or years. Sometimes decades! Don’t promise instant miracles. That is the way of charlatans and manipulators. And never take up a single offering in this place lest you defile it with the spirit of mammon.
Those who bring gifts of their own accord will certainly get my attention but do not ask in times of worship.
Use this place to make the vision plain and do fund raising if you need to, but not in the context of worship. Do not defile our meeting place.”
Suddenly Breakthrough speaks from behind us and we all turn to look at him.
Breakthrough:
“Barachiel speaks respectfully and gently son of obedience. But take note of this fact. He is a Seraphim as I am Seraphim but he is a guardian, and angel of war. He blazes a trail through lack and destroys chains of captivity faster than any other angel or archangel. He and Michael are the full and total manifestation of the strategic mind of God. If an instruction comes from his lips, move on it with everything that you have.
I have taught you that I bring breakthrough to those who honor wisdom with sacrifice. Hear this well.
Barachiel has not been in the earthly realm since he removed the chains from Paul and Silas. He has not only come for you or this vision, he has come to speak to tens of thousands of uniters. He will reside in your tent but he will appear to many who outrank you for the next seven years.
So not enter in prayer without a gift. Instruct all who come to follow the same advice. Take a snack, a drink, money that is reserved for fun. Drink and eat with Barachiel as your witness and express your gratitude to the Father for what you have in your hand.
Barachiel multiplies the seed of gratitude so always go before him so that he may witness your gratitude in small things.
Now listen very clearly.
If Barachiel blesses you, I am able to open the floodgates. For he clears the way. Heed his every word!”
Me:
“Guardian, what is your first instruction?”
Guardian:
“Let us worship together Courier. Let us saturate this place with the anointing. To worship God is the calling and assignment of every living thing. There is nothing more powerful than worship. Nothing.”
We worship together for hours and I wake up feeling refreshed and vital.
Strap yourselves in, we are about to unlock the mysteries of abundance in minute detail!
The kingdom is all!
