Scripture Focus…
Oh, that You would tear open the heavens and come down, That the mountains might quake at Your presence—(2) As [sure as] fire kindles the brushwood, as fire causes water to boil— To make Your name known to Your adversaries, That the nations may tremble at Your presence! (3) When You did awesome and amazing things which we did not expect, You came down [at Sinai]; the mountains quaked at Your presence. (4) For from days of old no one has heard, nor has ear perceived, Nor has the eye seen a God besides You, Who works and acts in behalf of the one who [gladly] waits for Him. (5) You meet him who rejoices in doing that which is morally right, Who remembers You in Your ways. Indeed, You were angry, for we sinned; We have long continued in our sins [prolonging Your anger]. And shall we be saved [under such circumstances]? (6) For we all have become like one who is [ceremonially] unclean [like a leper], And all our deeds of righteousness are like filthy rags; We all wither and decay like a leaf, And our wickedness [our sin, our injustice, our wrongdoing], like the wind, takes us away [carrying us far from God’s favor, toward destruction]. (7) There is no one who calls on Your name, Who awakens and causes himself to take hold of You; For You have hidden Your face from us And have handed us over to the [consuming and destructive] power of our wickedness [our sin, our injustice, our wrongdoing]. (8) Yet, O Lord, You are our Father; We are the clay, and You our Potter, And we all are the work of Your hand. (9) Do not be angry beyond measure, O Lord, Do not remember our wickedness [our sin, our injustice, our wrongdoing] forever. Now look, consider, for we are all Your people. (10) Your holy cities have become a wilderness, Zion has become a wilderness, Jerusalem a desolation. (11) Our holy and beautiful house [the temple built by Solomon], Where our fathers praised You, Has been burned by fire; And all our precious objects are in ruins. (12) Considering these [tragedies], will You restrain Yourself, O Lord [and not help us]? Will You keep silent and humiliate and oppress us beyond measure?
(Isaiah 64:1–12 AMP)
“Be still and know (recognize, understand) that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations! I will be exalted in the earth.” (11) The Lord of hosts is with us; The God of Jacob is our stronghold [our refuge, our high tower].
(Psalms 46:10–11 AMP)

The following prophecy was shared at Morning Prayer…
Kenneth Hagin prophecy on Restoration (2003)
Yea, saith the Lord of hosts, remember that you’re in My hands. And remember that I know the future better than you know the past—and all is well!
I will alert you concerning that which will affect you. I will show you the way to go, and you’ll walk in it and be blessed. Above all the people of the world, upon the earth, you shall be blessed.
For thou art My people, and My people shall rule and reign. And the blessings of God will fall upon them.
The latter rain shall be poured out. Yea, upon nations that are now barren and void. But the rain will be poured out. The seed will be planted. The harvest will come. The glory of God will shine upon the earth.
And they of the world will walk on in the way in which they’ve walked! And the darkness shall overtake them.
But ye shall walk in the light! The entrance of His Words giveth light! Walk according to the Word. Walk in the Word. Walk in the Spirit.
And the power shall rest upon you. And the glory of God shall be seen upon your face! Many shall turn to the Lord. Great days, great times, great blessings are ahead. So rejoice and be glad.
Many are concerned about things that have happened, the terror that has taken hold of the hearts of many. Many are concerned about war. Many are concerned about the future. Darkness seems to be developing. Dark clouds are on the horizon of time.
But, yea, saith the Lord of hosts, walk not by what you see with the physical eye. But walk according to what My Word says. Walk according to what the Holy Ghost is saying unto you!
For He’s speaking unto many hearts. And they walk on in the natural and pay no attention to their heart. He’s speaking to many spirits! They walk on in the realm of the mental, thinking their own thoughts, planning their own way.
But, yea, saith the Lord of hosts, listen to what the Spirit is saying to your heart, to your spirit. And what He said to you, act upon it! Act upon it! Act like it’s so!
Rejoice and be glad. In the face of adversity. In the face of seemingly natural defeat! Because you have inside information, information inside the Word, information given by the Spirit.
And it shall all come to pass. Amen.
We pride ourselves in being a Word church and Word people. And right and good. For it is true, saith the Lord, you are a Word people.
But do not forget that you’re also a Holy Ghost people—spiritual. Yes, the Word goes forth. But again and again, the Spirit has endeavored to move in your midst and you’ve ignored Him, and you’ve kept quiet.
Some have yielded temporarily to the Spirit. For the Spirit seeketh to manifest Himself. He’ll manifest Himself in revelation, revealing unto you through the word of knowledge, the word of wisdom, the discerning of spirits.
And He’s endeavored to speak! For He does speak unto His people by the Holy Spirit. By tongues and interpretation, by prophecy. And many have held back and would not speak out. And by so doing have quenched the Spirit, and have not only quenched the Spirit, but have grieved the Spirit.
Yea, listen to what the Spirit is saying. For there will be an outpouring of the Holy Ghost in these latter days. The latter rain—the early rain and the latter rain to gather in the fruit of the earth which He is waiting to receive before He comes again. Yea, it’s coming!
And this year, the year of 2003, is a year of preparation. It’s a year of separation! There will be those who will separate themselves from you, and walk in their own way, carry out their own plan, and have no power, and no glory, and no Spirit. But a deadness shall overtake them.
But there shall be those who will respond in fullness and will say, “Yes, Lord. Yes, Lord, I’ve missed it in times past. I’ve even been disobedient. Forgive me.” And remember that He forgives. Remember that there is mercy. Remember that it is stated, “Let us come boldly to the Throne of grace that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in the time of need.”
And so there’s mercy and there’s grace. And so pick up and go forward and learn. Learn the ways of the Spirit. Study! Meditate!
There shall be a restoration! There is a restoration in progress at the moment. A restoration! A restoration, spiritually speaking, when there shall be restored a full manifestation of the Spirit. . . . and He’s endeavored to divide the manifestations unto many who sit here, and you have not responded.
Be not afraid. Yes, man is human and very often man misses it—misinterpreted, missed just [exactly] what He’s saying. But do not let those things deter you, but let them be a learning experience.
Yes! Yes! This is the time of restoration. And there is coming a restoration in the world, in the natural realm. Restoration of marriages. Restoration of those who have been out of fellowship one with another….
Many are out of fellowship! But get into fellowship. Get into fellowship with one another. And get into one accord in praising and worshipping God. And the glory shall come in a way that you’ve never seen it before.
So this year 2003 is a year of preparation. It’s a year of not only preparation, but it’s a year of restoration. And 2003 will be glorious; it’ll build and build one upon another, so to speak.
But it will not all be glorious. Yes, God’s blessings are always glorious. But remember Jesus was led by the Spirit into the wilderness. And that wilderness experience was not all glorious until the end.
And so there will come to some who sit here a time that’ll not seem so glorious. Tears [weeping], oh yeah, tears shall be shed. Grief shall be endured. But joy cometh in the morning.
And so in many ways, 2003 is a year of opportunity—a year of restoration, a year of rebuilding.
But 2004, what about 2004? 2004 will be a year for more. More power, more glory, more manifestation, more saved, more filled with the Spirit, more healed! 2004 will be a year for more.
What about 2005? Will time last or will it cease? 2005—oh my! A year of judgment. Judgment. If we judge ourselves, we’ll not be judged. But when we are judged, we’re turned over to Satan for the destruction of the flesh so that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.
There’ll be judgment in the individual realm. There’ll be judgment in the family realm. There’ll be judgment on the national level. A day of sternness. A day of discipline. A day of correction.
But the end of the year will be glorious. Amends shall be made. Many shall judge themselves. Nations will turn to God. And it’ll end in a glorious manner.
Now what about 2006? There is no way to tell it! Oh Lord, oh my! How do you describe it? And that’s just the beginning. Yeah, when I say “beginning,” I’m talking about what happens just at the beginning of the year!
And it’ll grow in intensity….it will be a glorious year. It will be a year of heaven on earth! But the end will be [even] more glorious than the beginning.
So rejoice and be glad. The enemy is a defeated foe! Jesus has triumphed. Victory belongs to everyone. No one should come up empty-handed, but everyone should walk in full victory, commanding and demanding their rights and privileges in Christ Jesus . . . demanding nothing of the Father—He’s the One who made the provision.
But demanding of the devil, who is endeavoring to thwart the plan of God, who is endeavoring to keep it from coming to pass.
But it will all come to pass. It will all come to pass at last.
And the Holy Spirit has spoken unto a number of ministers here tonight. And He’s spoken to you in times past. He’s told you exactly what to do. You have not done it yet!
And you wonder why He withholds certain things. You wonder why it’s tough, or the way seems rough. Go ahead, listen to what the Holy Ghost is saying.
Make your church not only a Word church, but a Holy Ghost church. Put the Word first always. Move in the Holy Ghost in line with the Word.
And the glory shall be made manifest. The glory shall even be seen by many. And the blessings of the Lord will flow like a mighty river. Thank You, Lord Jesus.
