WELCOMING THE NEW YEAR
PROPHETIC GATHERING
BASILEIA INTERNATIONAL MINISTRIES
Norman & Margi Spencer, Senior Leaders
Matt Palant
I
was in Mexico
for three weeks and I had some time to really seek and pray and hear what the
Lord is saying for 2014. We always hear words for the next year and what
prophetic words do is prepare us for what the Lord is going to do, what the
Lord wants to do, and it’s all done through words. While I was there the Lord
showed me a couple of things.
One
of the things He showed me was a group of people standing on the seashore
watching and looking. And there were other people in the water, in a sense,
playing and doing things. He also showed me a field and in the beginning,
everything looked the same, but as time went on some things stood up and some
things dropped down.
One
of the adventures we went on in Mexico
was a cascade of water. And it was like a big pool of water at the bottom of a
waterfall coming down. I jumped in and swam into the waterfall. I am just
prefacing what I saw and some things the Lord showed me before I speak about
them.
What
I hear the Lord saying for 2014 is that there are many people who have been
standing on the seashore and the Lord says, this is your season. You’ve watched
people in ministry. You’ve heard people talk about ministry but this is the year
that you DO ministry. The Lord says it’s time for you to shift. Stop standing
on around. Stop watching and move into the forefront of what I’m doing because
I’ve called you. I’ve called you to participate and to take part in the things
that I’m doing, says the Lord. And it’s this year! The previous years, the
times you’ve been standing by you’ve been observing, and they have been times
of preparation. But the Lord says, this is the year you move forward and you
move into the forefront of what I’m doing. Because I’ve raised up and army and
I’m raising up an army to take forth, to move forward. Yes, the kingdom of
darkness is there but God says this year the Kingdom of Light
is going to push back the darkness that is trying to come. This is the year the
Lord’s people will rise up higher than ever before.
Of
the vision of things standing up and bowing down, the Lord said this, there are
some people who have been on the fence. There are some people who have not
quite made the decision in their heart. They confess some things and they
profess some things but they haven’t made up their minds. Their hearts have not
been right. The Lord says, this is the season when your actions are going to
line up with those things that you say. There are things you have been fighting
and battling, but you have been confessing and fighting with your words. The
Lord says this is the season, this is the year, when your actions will line up
with your words. And you will stand on them. You have stood and you have risen
above your circumstances. You have risen above those things that have held you
back and held you down. This is your year to rise up.
With
the water fall I saw…….when I jumped in and swam, in the beginning it was easy,
it was normal. But as I got closer to the waterfall, the water that was pouring
out was now pushing me back. And I had to put forth effort to move into the
outpouring. And the Lord said, I’m pouring out of My Spirit and there’s going
to be some resistance but if you depend on My grace, if you depend on My
strength you will move into what I have for you. The outpouring of My Spirit,
the infilling of My Spirit, will empower you, that what once seemed hard will
now be easy.
The
other thing I saw is this……..during worship, I saw again the people standing on
the seashore and one of the things holding them back last year was a lack of
strength, a lack of finances, and a lack of power. And the Lord said this. He took me to Exodus, with the Israelites in Egypt. What God
said was this, you have the authority! Moses had the rod. You have My word. God
says when you get to the place
or a place where it seems you cannot go any further, you speak to it. Speak to
it in the authority I have given you because there is nothing that can hold you
back from doing what I called you to do in 2014, when you declare it with My
words. When you come in My name and you speak My word, mountains will move,
seas will part and you will go forth into what I have planned for you. Stop
saying you don’t have the money. Receive it! I’ve given it to you. Stop saying
you don’t have the strength. Receive it! I’ve given it to you in Christ. Stop
saying you don’t have the power. I’ve given it to you. Everything you need has
been given to you in Christ Jesus. This is the year that you stand up and walk
in the authority, walk in the power, and receive the financial blessing, the
financial provision you need to do what I’ve called you to do, says the Lord.
Stop making excuses. Stop complaining. Stand up and move forward in MY name,
says the Lord.

New
Year’s day I got up early in the morning and I was spending time with the Lord.
I asked Him for a specific word for this coming year. I’m not going to be
foolish enough to believe that word is just for me. I believe it is for
everyone in this room and for everyone who is willing to hear what the Lord is
saying and take if for himself or herself.
The
Lord said to me, know that this year is a year of quick arrivals. Those things
you pursued will overtake you even while you sleep. My hand has never been
slow. But to prove my commitment to you – experiences, encounters and sudden
manifestations will be my gift to you to share in your spheres of influence,
says the Lord.
Lucia Marmol Chinea
I believe I
heard the following from the Lord regarding 2014
This is the year of Promises Fulfilled - things I have promised you
in the past which you have been waiting for, will now begin to take shape and
come to pass this year.
This is the year of Overtaking and Overcoming - the things that
have tried to hinder your progress before will now be your stepping stone into
my purposes, but only if you make them your stepping stone! No more victim
mentality, learn to see yourself as who you really are in my Son which is more
than a conqueror!
This is the year of Strategic Repositioning - I will begin move
people and ministries around so that individuals may grow in me and also for
the benefit and strengthening of my church body.
This is the year of Divine Acceleration - of individuals and church
bodies alike to grow, mature, and start to take their places in my overall
kingdom plan.
This is the
year of Divine Alliances - as more and more church
bodies come together under the banner of love and fellowship, you will begin to
see greater levels of my glory being poured out. These alliances will also be
key for the divine acceleration to happen.
This is the
year of Healing of Wounds and Freedom - If you allow
me, then I will begin to expose the hidden roots of deep seated and unresolved
wounds and lies in the souls of my people that have hindered them in the past.
I want to bring healing, and wholeness to their life and have them experience
what the fullness of salvation is really all about. This will prepare them so
that they can walk in their true identity in my Son as well as function
correctly in their role within the church body.

I
know when God Almighty speaks to me. Matt, there were words you said. Lucia,
there were words you said. And I told Norm earlier, the Lord gave me the
prophetic word in pieces. I had a vision. I had a dream. And I was awakened by
the dream. The Lord showed me specific numbers, specific verses to go to. And
as we were praising and worshiping, the Lord took me to a specific scripture. I
want to read this before I give you the prophetic word.
First
let me say this to you…….we always talk about resolutions. People make New
Year’s resolutions all the time. But I want to go to the word out of Ezra then
I will release the word the Lord gave me. Ezra 7:9, “On the first of the first month he started out
from Babylon, and on the first of the fifth month he arrived in Jerusalem, for
upon him was the good hand of his God.” Verse 10
says, “For Ezra had prepared and set his
heart to seek the Law of the Lord [to inquire for it and of it, to require and
yearn for it], and to do and teach in Israel its statutes and its
ordinances.”
What I heard the Spirit of the Lord says
was……….PREPARATION! Preparation!
Preparation, saith the Lord. In the vision I was standing in a field. I was on
one end of the field and I was looking across. And I saw four tornadoes rise
up. And then behind the four tornadoes, I saw another tornado come to the
forefront. I said, Lord, what is this? And I heard the Lord say, I’m going to release
My might, My strength, My power and My glory upon the earth to pull up, to root
out, to pluck up the things in My people that have hindered them from fully
knowing Me and yielding to My plan and My purpose for their lives. The wind of
the Spirit is going to blow, people! And that fifth tornado, the Lord said,
those that prepare their hearts will know that I am God Almighty, and I will
put My fear and My dread upon them. I’ll cause them to know Me, saith the
Spirit of Almighty God, that I am God Almighty and there is none else.
