I
WILL TAKE YOU
ON A JOURNEY THIS NIGHT
CHILD
AND YOU WILL RECORD ALL
THAT YOU SEE AND HEAR
MAKE NO MISTAKE
YOU ARE
ACCOUNTABLE
IF THIS
IS NOT RECORDED
DO YOUR JOB AND LEAVE
THE RESULTS TO ME
I WILL EXPLAIN IT ALL
IN FULL DETAIL
WALK
NOW

I approached
the rooms upstairs
where the youth were having a meeting
I stepped forward to the door
and You told me to remove my shoes
and to walk into the rooms barefoot
I did as You spoke
As I entered I saw the young people
with their hands raised in worship
but as I glanced at the floor it was covered
with a black soft oozing material
which the kids feet sunk into
They had chains upon their feet
and the lock was beneath
the black substance
I walked upon the ground
but to my feet it was hardened
and I did not sink into it
I walked forward not knowing what to do
The senior pastor entered after me
and went one by one
to each young person
and carefully unlocked
the chains upon their feet
He then went to the doorway
and motioned the way out
They looked toward the door
but then sat upon the ground
and put the chains back around their feet
and stuck the locks deep into the substance
They raised their hands once again
and began where they had left off
There was silence . . .
and I called for the spirits to identify themselves
within the room
SUICIDE, DEPRESSION, ANGER, APATHY, AND HOPELESSNESS
called out their names
In the room there was no color
all appeared to be black and white
It was as a dream would appear
where the young people
had lost their identity
and were simply playing a role
that they thought was required of them
I spoke the words
to send the principalities away
to destroy their works
and as the principalities left
one by one
the chains began to come off the children
and then dissolve
The black material remained
but color began to come back
into the room
Without a word of instruction
the children hurried to the door
and walked out this time
with their hands bound in front of them
They appeared to be as prisoners of war
Their heads were down
as they walked the hallway
and down the stairway
The senior pastor held the door open
to the sanctuary and the children
found places around the altar
I prayed over them touching them
on their heads and speaking in tongues
Each in turn would rise up
and find a place in the sanctuary
to lie down before God
Shrieks and yells
began to come from the mouths
of these that had been bound
Some were going through deliverance
and some were already being empowered
A sound came from outside
of the auditorium
and the doors were pushed open abruptly
Elders advanced with weapons
and began to shoot
at the children
laying prostrate on the floor
until all was quiet again
The senior pastor
rushed toward the adults
and ushered them out
confiscating their weapons
The weapons were thrown into a pile
and a match was taken to them
Chains were put on the sanctuary doors
keeping the opposition away
The worship music began to play
The children rose up
as if from a deep, deep sleep
with tears and smiles
and raised their arms into the air
but this time
it was different
for it was truly coming from the heart
You could hear
the beating of their hearts
within their chests
They knew
that they were safe to worship
where they were
They knew that God's Presence
was there to envelop them
deliver them and empower them
Some people came through the doors
they walked right through them
without having to open them
Only the pure could enter
Only those who would join in and embrace
this movement of the youth
Only those came
Street kids
began to come
and their attire was different
and their mannerisms rough
but they were prayed over
and electrified,
these young people became
They ran throughout the sanctuary
in wild abandon
The churched kids watched
not knowing if this was truly of God
but the "wild" ones would simply touch them
or glance their way
and they, too
would be set free to run
The church doors
began to be open every night
for the young people to come
and worship and pray
There was never a set program
There was never a set and ordained leader
There were only kids reaching for all
that God had for them
There were tears and there were yells
and there was
VICTORY
SHEER VICTORY
Adults lined
the outside of the building
at times complaining
that they had lost their building
They complained
of the noise and the lack of respect
for religious order
but they were
never allowed back in
They slowly drifted away
And as for the senior pastor . . .
his heart
was finally "HOME"
He was finally at peace
with this God
who had chased him for so long
to do something so mighty
that the world would be forever changed
This senior pastor
finally knew without a doubt
that all of God's promises for him
would come true

THAT WASN'T
SO HARD, WAS IT?

Parts were

BUT
YOU WROTE
AS I SPOKE
AND IT HAD TO BE WRITTEN
THE ROOMS
FOR WHICH
THE CHILDREN MEET IN
ARE FILLED
WITH THE DEMONIC
AND AS THE DAYS PROGRESS
AND THE NIGHTS BECOME
LONGER
MORE WILL FILL
THIS ROOM
MORE AND MORE AND MORE
THERE IS ONLY ONE WAY
TO MAKE THESE PRINCIPALITIES
 TAKE FLIGHT
AND YOU
HAVE THE POWER
YOU HAVE
THE AUTHORITY
BUT
WHAT GOOD IS IT
TO CLEAN OUT A ROOM
AND LEAVE THE CHILDREN
IN THERE
TO MINISTER ONLY
TO EACH OTHER?
SELFISH
IT MAKES THEM
THEY
SEEK FUN AND EXCITEMENT
AND NOT PURELY ME
I WANT THEM
IN THE AUDITORIUM
IN MY SANCTUARY
TO LEAD
I WANT THEM
TO LEAD THE MASSES
I WANT THEM
TO LEAD THE ADULTS
THAT WILL BECOME
AS CHILDREN
THERE WILL NOT BE
MANY ADULTS
THAT WILL STAY
ONLY THOSE
WITH PURE HEARTS
AND
UNADULTERATED WAYS
I WILL SEND
A PROTECTOR
OVER THE YOUTH
AND YOU KNOW THE MAN
HE WILL GUARD THEIR HEARTS
AND THE DOOR
HE WILL GUARD THEM
AS HE WOULD HIS OWN CHILDREN
HE WILL STAND
AND
PREVENT THE EVIL
FROM RETURNING
HE WILL GUARD
AND
YOU WILL EMPOWER
IT IS
TEAMWORK
IT IS
MY WORK
AND
THEN ONE DAY
THE YOUTH
WILL TAKE OVER
THEY WILL
LEAD THE SERVICE
THEY WILL
CALL THE YOUTH
TO COME CITY WIDE
IT WILL BE
A PLACE OF DESTINY
IT WILL BE
A PLACE OF EMPOWERING
IT WILL BE
A HOLY PLACE
YOU WONDER WHY
I HAD YOU REMOVE
YOUR SHOES
FOR YOU KNOW BIBLICALLY
THAT IT IS ONLY DONE
UPON HOLY GROUND
AND THAT GROUND WAS
ANYTHING
BUT HOLY
THEY
WERE BOUND AND GAGGED
APPEARING TO BE HOLY
BY THEIR
LIFTED HANDS
BUT THEY HAD
NO HEARTS
THEY HAD BEEN TRAINED
AS ROBOTS
AND THAT IS ALL

TO
REMOVE YOUR SHOES
ALSO BRINGS FORTH
A HUMILITY OF WALK
YOU
WILL WASH
THESE CHILDREN'S FEET
YOU
WILL BIND UP THEIR WOUNDS
YOU
WILL DEFEND THEM
FROM THEIR PARENTS
AND THE ELDERS
YOU
WILL HOLD THEIR HEARTS
IN YOURS
YOU
WILL NURTURE THEM
BACK TO LIFE
ONE BY ONE
AND
TO THIS MISSION
I ASSIGN
YOU THIS NIGHT
IT WILL NOT COME
EASILY
IT WILL NOT COME
WITHOUT
MUCH STRUGGLE
ON YOUR PART
FOR YOU ARE TRULY
THE
PRISONER OF WAR
FROM THAT PLACE
ALL
THAT YOU EVER LEFT
IN THAT PLACE
WAS RETURNED
UNTO
YOUR DOORSTEP
THEY
DID NOT EVEN WANT
A BOOK
WITH YOUR NAME ON IT THERE
BUT ALAS
I SENT YOU BACK
WEEKS AGO
AND YOU LEFT YOUR CLOAK
RED IT WAS
FOR THE BLOOD WILL RUN
TO BRING FORTH
MY KINGDOM
HEARTS WILL
BLEED AND BLEED AND BLEED
AND YOURS
WILL LEAD THE WAY
PARKED YOU DID
IN THE
PRIMARY POSITION
YOU
CHOSE TO PARK
BY THE TRASH CANS
YOU
CHOSE TO BE
DESPISED
RATHER THAN HONORED
YOU
COULD HAVE BEEN
HONORED LONG AGO
IF
YOU HAD PLAYED
THE GAME WELL
BUT
YOU LOOKED
AT THEIR FACES
AND THEN MINE
AND FOR ALL
THAT WAS IN YOU
YOU
HAD TO FOLLOW
TRUTH
AND YOU FOLLOWED
ME
OUT THE DOOR
AND WE HAVE NOT YET
RETURNED
YOUR
HEART STILL ACHES
WHEN YOU SEE THE PLACE
YOUR
HEART ACHES
WHEN YOU SEE THE PEOPLE
FROM THAT PLACE
I CANNOT
PROMISE YOU
THAT IT WILL GET EASIER
BUT I PROMISE
YOU
A HARVEST OF YOUTH CITY-WIDE
IF
YOU WILL COME
WHEN I CALL
IF
YOU WILL COME
LAY YOUR HEART DOWN
AGAIN
LAY IT DOWN
AS THE CHILDREN LAY PROSTRATE
ON THE FLOOR
AND WERE SHOT
LAY IT DOWN, TERAH
I SAY
"LAY IT DOWN"
AND UNTO YOU
THIS DAY
A "SAVIOR" IS BORN
AND UNTO YOU
THIS DAY IN ALOHA
ONE WILL RISE
TO BRING FORTH
LEADERS
FOR
A NEW GENERATION
YOU
STRUGGLE
FOR YOU KNOW
THE OPPOSITION
YOU
KNOW HOW MIGHTY
THE EVIL IS
IN THAT PLACE
YOU KNOW THE EVIL
IN HIGH PLACES
BUT THIS
IS NOT A WAR
THAT WILL BE LOST
IT IS
ALREADY WON
WHEN ONE CHILD
RISES UP
FROM
THEIR "DEATH"
IT IS ALREADY WON
I ASK YOU
I COMMAND YOU
TO CLAIM
THE PROMISE
OF THIS VISION
TONIGHT
I ASK YOU
TO LAY YOUR HEART DOWN
ONCE MORE
TO MAKE IT HAPPEN
I ASK YOU
TO PUT ASIDE ALL
WHEN THE CALL COMES
TO RETURN
I ASK YOU
TO BE ALL
THAT I DESIRE TO BE
IN THAT PLACE
I LOVE YOU, CHILD
AND I LOVE
THOSE CHILDREN
WILL YOU
"DIE"
ONCE MORE
FOR THEM?

I will
I will do as You ask
and I will do it with fervor
and I ask that all of the Power of Heaven
would surround me
and when I speak to the evil to be removed
that it would not even take one last breath
but that it would be
GONE
I ask for someone to stand beside me
that knows and discerns Your Power
so that it will
NEVER, EVER
be stopped in that House again

YOU
YELLED
AND WERE CALLED EVIL
YOU
SHOUTED
AND WERE CALLED DEMONIC
THE YOUTH
BROUGHT FORTH YELLS
AND THEY WERE STOPPED
BUT THIS
IS THE DAY
TO
YELL AND SHOUT OUT
THE EVIL
FOR THOSE
WHO CANNOT TAKE
THE NOISE
I BID THEM
"GOODBYE"
FOR I WILL TAKE OVER
THIS PLACE
AND MAKE IT
MY PLACE
WHERE ALL OF HEAVEN
WILL SHOUT
THE VICTORY
KIDS WILL BE EMPOWERED
FROM ON HIGH
DEMONS WILL SCREAM
AND THEN LEAVE
AND NEVER RETURN
IT IS DONE, CHILD
IT IS DONE
REST EASY TONIGHT
ONE TRIP
TO TAKE
ONE TRIP
SO FINE
