SAFE FISH

NOTE: If you remember, in a previous post I shared the story about the fish dropping out of the sky. Within the same season, I heard another fish story where a storm had been so bad, that it swept a school of fish out of the water and dropped them onto dry land. This is a parable of the stormy times and season of when the great harvest occurs. These were also a confirmation to the following vision I’d had years ago.

VISION: I was looking out the dining room window. Suddenly it started raining fish from the sky. They plopped into a huge heaping pile, flopping around. Then I saw them stop moving and appear lifeless. I saw little fish and big fish. I wondered if it was raining fish other places, but there was a pile right in front of the window and it was as though they were sent there. I called Wayne to come see this amazing sight and mentioned we should probably take a picture.

WORD TO PONDER: TROUBLED WATERS WILL RESTORE

Listen to the parable of the fish. For even as your weighted down loved ones have felt like a fish on dry land, flopping until no life remains, I have sent help. I send the wave of My Spirit upon these dry ones who have held on for so long. I will wash them and bring them back from the throngs of death and move them into My flow.

Like the pools of Bethesda where the waters stir and are troubled, so I trouble the waters of those so dry they feel like they have no life left. They will fight the weight of hopelessness and despair and in one last breath, as they call upon Me, they will be washed into My waters and come back to life. For these waters of trouble are really the waters of life. The vapor of My Presence hovers over the bubbling waters and My glory dwells in the midst. I stay very close to those who have suffered for so long.

"When they walk through the Valley of Weeping, it will become a place of refreshing springs, where pools of blessing collect after the rains! They will continue to grow stronger, and each of them will appear before God in Jerusalem." (Ps 84:6-7 NLT)

HEARD: That was so exciting. Where did they all come from? From the sea. Harvest of souls.

CONFIRMATION: A few years later Bobby Conner had a vision of the coming harvest. The Lord had told Bobby to go fishing with Him during a great storm. Bobby found peace from the turbulence as he drew close to the Lord. Jesus gave Bobby a piece of His heart to use as bait and Bobby threw it out into the stormy waters. He caught a beautiful fish and gave it back to the Lord. Jesus was deeply satisfied as He received the fish.

CONFIRMATION: Just as I finished typing the following Word to Ponder, my fish swam through his grass and instead of wiggling through it and out the other side like he always does, he stayed snuggled inside where it appeared he was equally imprisoned on both sides and was content to rest there. It was so amazing to see him do that since I had never seen this before. Then as I started to type this comment, he swam out, as though the Lord told him to do that just for me. :)

WORD TO PONDER: ZIPPED IN THE STORM

The winds may blow fiercely in every direction, but I have carefully held you in safety. It is though I have enclosed you in My bag and zipped you up safe and snug. Wrapped in My warmth, you shall feel nothing but My Presence as you press into Me. You shall become so secure in My love for you, My powerful Sovereignty, that you will one day know you are never without Me and I am intimately acquainted with you.

Psalms 139:7-12 NLT

I can never escape from your spirit! I can never get away from your presence! If I go up to heaven, you are there; if I go down to the place of the dead, you are there. If I ride the wings of the morning, if I dwell by the farthest oceans, even there your hand will guide me, and your strength will support me. I could ask the darkness to hide me and the light around me to become night-- but even in darkness I cannot hide from you. To you the night shines as bright as day. Darkness and light are both alike to you.

HEARD: 11 of them. Celebration. Bolt of lightening. Shield of blue. Completely encircled. Protected. All night long and the next day. Your angels. We’re getting excited. Around you, radius. Our King. Our position. Celebration. Intact, blue. Weathered the storm. We made it.

Job assignment. Blue lightening. You will feel it. Surging. Authority. Make it plain. Do you have any questions? What does it stand for? You may feel it. You may hear it. You may touch it. Blue flame. Encircle. Hot. The anointing.

WORD TO PONDER: TOUCH THEM FOR ME

I have placed you within My shield of blue flame. You are completely encircled day and night. Your angels form a fiery wall around you and they are getting excited. For on the other side of your personal storm, there is a wonderful celebration coming. I am sending you to lay hands on many to be My personal touch. I shall send forth My lightning rod through your hands. You will feel this powerful virtue. It will surge through your veins, arms and hands. You may also hear its flow in your body. Touch My Spirit says the Lord. It’s hot, it’s a blue flame. It’s My anointing.

"And Jesus, immediately knowing in himself that virtue had gone out of him, turned him about in the press, and said, Who touched my clothes?" (Mark 5:30 KJV)

"And the whole multitude sought to touch him: for there went virtue out of him, and healed them all." (Luke 6:19 KJV)

"And believers were increasingly added to the Lord, multitudes of both men and women, so that they brought the sick out into the streets and laid them on beds and couches, that at least the shadow of Peter passing by might fall on some of them. Also a multitude gathered from the surrounding cities to Jerusalem, bringing sick people and those who were tormented by unclean spirits, and they were all healed." (Acts 5:14-16 NKJV)

PRECIOUS CONFIRMATIONS: While I was reading this rhema and typing the Ponder, I could feel His Presence surging through my blood. After I typed this Word to Ponder, I was re-reading it and heard, "It’s coming." At that exact moment I felt a burst of His Presence and my left hand jerked wildly on my desk. I was overcome by His presence and when I got up to go to the bathroom, Big Mouth Billy Bass was in there. I walked past the electric eye, his tail started wiggling, then his mouth opened and he sang, "I want to know, can you help me? Take me to the river. Drop me in the river! Take me to the river. Put me in the water!" Then as I walked out, he sang, "Here’s a little song I wrote. Don’t worry, be happy!"
