She was a beautiful Hindu girl, typically very thin with big dark eyes and a
beautiful smile. Maybe the smile was because she became a Christian only
three weeks ago.
It was the first time for her to visit our fellowship. We were having a
two day retreat and she came along with a friend (the very friend who had
led her to Christ.) We sang a while, then started praying. She was at the
other end of the sofa, but I felt her put her hand gently on my shoulder.
About 30 minutes later, she again touched my shoulder, but this time with
more boldness. It was my "hurt" shoulder, what is referred to as a
"frozen" shoulder and had been paining me since November, seven months.
I had not been able to lift my hand above my head but she had no way of
knowing this.
Later we were again singing and praising when I lifted my hands in worship. To my surprise, both hands went all the way up. I also had not been able to clap my hands without a painful vibration traveling up my arm. I immediately started clapping, louder and harder and crying out to God. When I testified to the group what had happened, Rosie just bounced up and down and flashed that huge smile.
Rosie is filled with the Holy Spirit, speaks in tongues and has the gift of healing. Rosie thinks this is normal and delights in her gift. We delight in Rosie!

America Parallels Ancient Israel
America was one of only two countries in history founded under God. Israel was the other. Ancient Israel turned away from God, so God sent Assyria to attack and awaken Israel. They attacked Israel and Israel's response was, "The bricks have fallen down, but we will rebuild with dressed stone; the fig (Sycamore in KJV) trees have been felled, but we will replace them with cedars." Isaiah 9:10. This was not God's intent. God was looking forIsrael to repent and return to God... they didn't. Later, God sent the Phillistines and Israel was crushed.
America is reliving this with 9/11. Gov. Potaki, shortly after 9/11/01 quoted this very Scripture (Isaiah 9:10) indicating that we would rebuild. What is so amazing about this is that in 1789, New York City was the first capital of America after the constitution. George Washington was sworn in as our first president there at the federal building. From there George Washington and the leaders walked to a small chapel for a two-hour service where America's first leaders dedicated America to God. What's even more amazing is that this Cahpel sits on Ground Zero... St. Paul's Chapel. As with Israel, the very place where each country was dedicated to God, God allowed destruction to come for the purpose of awakening us.
After the bricks had fallen on 9/11, in a ceremony NY officials lowered a 20-ton quarried stone (dressed stone) into the foundation with the intent of building "Freedom Tower." Of course, the stone was later removed due to the outcry of those who lost loved ones in the Twin Towers. But ourintent was there.
Even more... As 9/11 unfolded a beam from the north tower came down and was headed toward the chapel, but a Sycamore (Fig) Tree stood in the way and was felled by the beam and the chapel spared. The Sycamore's root system was made into a bronze statue (bronze is a metal of judgement) and placed on Wall Street. The NYSE was founded beneath a Sycamore Tree. To top it all off, a Cedar Tree was planted to replace the fallen Sycamore Tree.
America is reliving Sripture. As with Ancient Israel, we have not turned back to God as America. For more details which are all verifiable in newsprint and even St. Paul Chapel's website, please see the following website.

This is absolutely stunning information that needs to be heard. Rabbi Jonathan Cahn (who is a Christian) was my first source for this info and is quoted extensively on the website. Cahn can also be found sharing this info on Youtube in a radio broadcast he did with Sid Roth.
Also, here's more on the Sycamore-Fig Tree...

So It Will Be At The Coming Of The Son Of Man
"As it was in the days of Noah, so it will be at the coming of the Son of Man... Two men will be in the field; one will be taken and the other left. Two women will be grinding with a hand mill; one will be taken and the other left." In the Days of Noah, who was left behind and who was taken? "So it will be at the coming of the Son of Man." Matthew 24:37, 40
"Immediately after the distress of those days the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light; the stars will fall from the sky, and the heavenly bodies will be shaken. At that time the sign of the Son of Man will appear in the sky, and all the nations of the earth will mourn. They will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of the sky, with power and great glory. And he will send his angels with a loud trumpet call, and they will gather his elect from the four winds, from one end of the heavens to the other." Matthew 24:29-31 Jesus will appear in the sky to gather His elect "immediately after the distress of those days."
God is raising up Cities of Refuge around the world to protect His own during the challenging times that are coming. He is, even now, having His people prepare farms, houses, and underground places in which "The LORD their God will care for them"
"Seek the LORD, all you humble of the land, you who do what he commands. Seek righteousness, seek humility; perhaps you will be sheltered on the day of the LORD's anger." Zephaniah 2:3
"Go, my people, enter your rooms and shut the doors behind you; hide yourselves for a little while until his wrath has passed by." Isaiah 26:20
"The land by the sea, where the Kerethites dwell, will be a place for shepherds and sheep pens. It will belong to the remnant of the house of Judah; there they will find pasture. In the evening they will lie down in the houses of Ashkelon. The LORD their God will care for them; he will restore their fortunes." Zephaniah 2:7

Because Of Her Hypocrisy
An extremely dedicated Believer and friend of mine had a dream on December 24, 1987. She's now 62 years old. I went down to visit her and her husband last month in the Terlingua, Texas area. Godly, Godly people. Lots and lots of good fruit. Her dream was this:
She was in an old wooden cabin with her two blood sisters. The old fashioned screen door was closed and the old fashioned heavy wooden door was open. All of a sudden a large bear standing on its hind legs appeared on her porch. It was hostile and she was scared. She immedately ran and slammed closed the wooden door and began to lock three latches on her door. As she was latching them a voice from above her said, "These are arms treaties." With this knowledge and the door closed and locked, she felt safe and relaxed. Suddenly the bear's claws ripped through the door and the bear destroyed the door and stood before her and had the face of a man. The voice above her then said, "Russia invades America." Her sisters were terrified and ran out the back door leaving her to fend for herself with the bear. The voice above her said, "Her allies flee from her." Then she woke up. The dream was so powerful, she was physically ill for three days as she pondered it.
She asked the Lord, "Why would You let Russia invade America?" God replied to her, "Because of her hypocrisy. She has sent out missionaries and evangelists around the world with the Gospel message, yet she has not partaken of it herself."

Sue Delivers A Baby In India
She was lying on the floor on a burlap sack, curled up and fully clothed, her wrap around skirt pulled over her knees. The hut was so dark, I stumbled over a small stool as I made my way around to her face. I brushed her hair back gently and spoke to her. Using my anointing oil, I massaged her swollen belly. The contractions were still far apart and not severe so I thought it might be a while yet. But she had been like this for two days and her family was worried and wanted to get her into town. I started up the hill to find a vehicle. The water truck had just passed and would return shortly. Could we load her into that? Then I saw my friend, an older tribal woman who had 5 children of her own. I walked up to her and tried to pantomime "pregnant" or "baby" as I pointed back at the hut by the cattle shed. She did not understand. I finally grabbed her hand, pulled her to her feet and led her back down the path. We ran into the pastor's son who explained to her what was happening. The young Hindu woman from Assam was having her baby."She's giving birth! It's too late", he said.
We entered the dark hut again and I heard a faint cry. I eased around the young woman who was now in a squatting position and gently lifted her skirt. The baby's head was out, but the mother was practically sitting on it in her exhaustion. The cord was around his neck. I knew she needed to raise up and push. I told my friend, "Up!" Together we lifted the young woman about a foot off the floor and out came the baby. I yelled, " I see a foot. He is out" . Then I gently removed the cord from his neck. I reached under her with both arms and cradling the baby pulled him forward, out from under his mother. "It's a boy", I cried. Later, I realized no one in the room spoke English and all my yelling was for nothing, but my friend understood "boy" and turned to tell the father as I lifted him up to show the mother.
When they brought the razor blade to cut the cord, I stepped out of the hut into the sunlight. I had blood up to both elbows, but WOW, what an experience. I thanked God once again for sending me to this small village in northeast India.
I love my job!

A Time Is Coming...
In December 2007 I was in Trujillo, Honduras in Central America. I was in prayer when all of a sudden God showed me that right now people from this part of the world want to go to the United States of America, but there is a time coming when the people in the United States of America will want to come here.
At that time, I didn't understand why this would happen, but since then God has shown me more and more about what is to come for the USA. Please listen to the message entitled, "Challenging Times Ahead" at my website www.theLORDwillprovide.org.
God tells us these things now so we may prepare. He is a merciful and loving God. May we heed His warnings.

Many Are Receiving Dreams and Visions - Challenging Times Ahead
I continue to hear from people (even young people) who are receiving dreams and visions about the challenging times that are coming.
This is not a statement born from merely looking at the events and circumstances in the world today. This is not even a statement debating how God communicates to His Body through dreams and visions (which He clearly says He will do and does as stated in the last days in Acts 2 and Joel 2). It is the message that God is communicating over and over to His Body that's important here. He is warning us and asking, even pleading with us, to prepare. These people I am hearing from aren't seeking out these dreams and visions. God is surprising them with these communications... even kids... even me. (Please listen to "Challenging Times Ahead" at www.theLORDwillprovide.org)
There is no need for God's own to fear. This is God's mercy at work... He warns us because He loves us and wants us to prepare so we can endure. Matthew 24:37-41. begins, "As in the Days of Noah, so it will be at the coming of the Son of Man..." Noah and his family were left behind and had to endure the flood... it was the wicked who were taken away. And just like Noah, we will have to endure the challenging times ahead. This time instead of an ark, God is preparing Cities of Refuge in the US and around the world. Places of refuge, provision and protection.

Encouraging Word
Love beckons me. Love covers a multitude of sins. Love conquers all. Be not dismayed. You cannot do anything to destroy the plan I have for you. My plan is not based on your abilities. It is based on My Grace. Stop doubting yourself. Stop looking back and regretting your mistakes. Am I not powerful enough to overcome your ablilty? Am I not strong enough to correct your errors? And Am I not wise enough to re-direct you? Nothing you can do can defeat My plan for you. Do not despair. Do you not know that My Goodness is greater than your best effort? If you think it is too late or too hard or your mistakes are too many, then you are saying that your weakness is more powerful than My Strength!
Nothing is impossible for Me! When you get to the point of your inability, that is when you are ready to tap into My ability. Let go of thinking how you can make things happen and watch Me proceed on your behalf. I will wash away your past in the Light of a new beginning. Do not give up because failure is the start of true victory. Never was there true victory without many failures preceeding.
Trust in Me. I created you. I Love you! And I want your success more than you want it for yourself. My deepest desire is that we do it together. You were not created to exist without Me. Let Me be your frontline guide and your rear shield. I will cover you, protect you and surround you with My Grace. Listen to Me, Follow Me, obey Me. I will be responsible for you My child. I Am Faithful and Worthy of your trust. I have the ability to carry your through any adversity and bring you out in victory. There is no enemy I cannot destroy. No mountain too high, no valley too low, no river too wide. I created all. I know all. I know every cave to hide you in . I know every foe to protect your from. The enemy cannot surprise Me with any schemes of destruction. I know them all and have seen them before they were set in motion. I have the inside track on everything. I wil guide you up, around and through every detail of your life.
All I ask of you is to get in My boat. The storms will come. The waves will rise, but you, My beloved will not be harmed. I will protect you like I did in your mother's womb. When the raging sea settles and the enemy is defeated, you will see the rising Son and join us in the clouds. That is when you will see the Glory of your King. We will trample the enemy of Love together. Nothing can defeat My beloved who rests in My care.
The King has annointed you for such a time as this. If you did not have what it takes, you would have been planted at a different time in history. Do not question the Wisdom of your God.
Rejoice and Reign for the appointed time is at hand to claim your victory!

Season of Grace
It was spring 2008 and I felt God was wanting me to travel to Minnesota to visit a couple I had heard about from a friend here in Texas. I felt God wanted me to go there to encourage them, but I was waiting for a confirmation from Giod. Within a few weeks I received a call from a prophetic friend of mine who lives in Virginia. His name is Brian. "Steve, is God talking to you about Minnesota?" "Yes!" I exclaimed. "Me, too!" Brian said, "We need to go!" God then gave us clear timing for the trip which turned out to be August 2008.
We arrived at the airport in Minneapolis/St. Paul and met our new Minnesotan friends, Denny and JoAnna. God had sent us there to encourage them and accomplish two other assignments including anointing the headwaters of the Mississippi River with salt and oil. The next day Denny took us to Lake Itasca which is where the Mississippi River is born. We were about to pray as we stood near the headwaters of the Mississippi when Denny began to share some things that God had been showing him.
"God has been telling me that we are coming into a 'Season of Grace'. A time when we will see things improve. For example, gas right now is over $4.00 a gallon. It will come down to around $2.00 a gallon. We will also see the financial crisis that we are going through right now, settle down and some people will think we're going to get through this like we always have." Shaking his head and with seriousness in his voice Denny continued, "God is telling me, 'No.' He is showing me that this Season of Grace will last for 30 months. When the Season of Grace ends, the things we are now seeing will come back worse than they are now." Brian and I nodded our heads and we began to pray.
After we prayed, Brian anointed the headwaters of the Mississippi. From there we headed o the parking lot to begin our drive to back to Denny's home. At that time (August 2008) Brian had an 8-month old baby at home and as we were walking back to the car, Brian noticed a woman with a tiny baby in her arms. "Oh, what a pretty baby!" Brian exclaimed. "Is your baby a boy or a girl?" The mother responded, "A girl." "She's beautiful! How old is she?" Brain asked. "8 weeks old." replied the mother. "I have an 8-month old at home." Brian said with a big smile." Brian asked, "What's her name?" The mother responded, "Her name is... Season Grace." Brian's jaw hit the ground. "What's her name?" An utterly shocked Brian asked again to confrim what he just heard. Again the mother said, "Season Grace."
God had just signed His name to the information we had just heard.

His Servants The Prophets
I am an ordinary man who listens to the Holy Spirit of God and obeys. When He asks me to turn left, I turn left. When He asks me to turn right, I turn right. When He says go straight ahead, I go straight ahead. The more I obey, the more I hear and the more I hear, the more I obey. This is how I got into ministry in the first place. Guatemala is not written in the Bible, yet I knew I was to go to Guatemala. India is not written in the Bible, yet I knew was to travel to India. God speaks through the Bible, through others, through circumstances and through His Holy Spirit. God has shown me and many others what is coming to the world through revelation, not because we asked to see it, but because God decided we should see it. I don't know why.
I have never been a "End Times" person. Never studied it, never had a passion for it. But one day God decided he wanted me to know some of it. The amazing thing is that since then (April 2008) He has confirmed what He showed me through many, many others and through His Word. This is not a distraction, this is what God is showing us is coming. "Surely the Sovereign LORD does nothing without revealing his plan to his servants the prophets." Amos 3:7. People thought Noah and most of God's prophets were crazy until they saw it happen. Please listen to "Challenging Times Ahead" at www.theLORDwillprovide.org and then pray, asking God what He wants you to do.

Dream - Spring 2007
I was given a dream in the Spring 2007. In the dream I was working with a few others on a green hillside when there was a nearby explosion. The few of us that were working immediately ran away. The next thing I saw, I was on a roof top looking back at the hill that I had just left. As I looked back I saw a row of houses (I just see the roofs) between me and the green hill. Suddenly from the left I saw a huge airplane with the words "United States" written on it (the way Air Force One has United States of America written on it) falling out of the sky. I noticed that there were many people (one on each roof top), including me just watching this happen... not doing anything about it. The plane then crashed into the green hill and exploded into a huge ball of fire. The entire hill was engulfed in flames. Suddenly from deep inside of me my voice welled up and I yelled out in my loudest voice for all to hear, "We're under attack!"
I woke up.
I woke up.

Look At The Signs
Stephen Burke Prophetic Word - July, 2008
Devastation is coming. Will be an unleashing - written in Scripture.
Clouds, clouds, clouds, clouds
We will be devastated, overwhelmed
We are going to be devastated
There is an unleashing coming. A bowl will be poured out. The devastation is coming.
I've been trying to tell everyone. Nobody is doing anything.
Devastation is coming. Hear me! Hear me!
It's coming. Warn my children.
It's coming. Warn my children.
It's coming. Warn my children.
My dear children. Warn my children. Somebody hear me.
Warn them. Tell them, tell them, tell them, tell them. It's time. It's time.
God is angry. He has been telling everybody and nobody's doing anything.
It's like we don't believe Him.
End times. Don't be surprised.
End times. Don't be surprised.
End times. Don't be surprised. It's coming.
End times. The Lion of judah.
End times. Look for the signs.
End times. Look for the signs.
End times. Look for the signs.
End times. Clouds, clouds, clouds, clouds. (Rev. 14:14)
I will pour out my Spirit.
I will pour out my Spirit.
I AM. I AM. I AM.
He's been warning everybody because He loves us.
Look at the big picture.
Look at the big picture.
I'm looking for those who will hear me speak.
I AM. I AM.
Time is short. Time is short. Time is short. Time is short.
Too much delay. Too much delay. Too much delay. Too much delay.
I ask people to do things -- they're putting it off.
I am your priority -- time is short.
No more playing around.
Tims is short -- the signs are there. Look at the signs.
Wake up! Wake up!
Ezekiel 33
His children are going to cry out and He will hear them.
The whole system we have put our faith into is going to collapse. It's a false secuurity.
There is going to be a shift. We have to adjust, if we are to survive.

They Are Abused And Give Blessing. They Are Insulted And Give Honor.
In the early church the lost world was deeply impacted by the lives of Christians, as evidenced by this letter written by Piagnetus, an early historian, in the year AD 180. Describing believers, he states:
"They are not distinguished from the rest of mankind by country, by speech, nor by customs. But although they live in both Greek and foreign cities and follow the local customs both in clothing and food and the rest of life, they exhibit the wonderful and strange nature of their own citizenshp--but as sojourners. They live in their own homelands. They share all things as citizens and suffer all things as aliens. Every foreign country is a homeland, and every homeland is a foreign country. They marry as all do. They bear children, but they do not discard their children as some do. They offer a common table, but not a common bed. They find themselves in the flesh, but they do not live according to the flesh. They pass their time upon the Earth, but are citizens of Heaven. They obey the established laws and supposit the laws in their own lives. They love all and are persecuted by all. They are put to death--and are made alive. They are poor--but make many rich. They lack all things, yet abound in all things. They are abused and give blessing. They are insulted and give honor. When they do good they are punished as evildoers. When they are punished, they rejoice as those receiving life."

The Power Of God Over Death
I just returned from a blessed trip to Guatemala. I want to share one incredible story of God's power over death:
One evening I was invited to eat dinner with two of the leaders of our churches in Guatemala and El Salvador. The married couple was excited to tell me of the latest miracle God had done.
A woman who attends the church had become gravely ill and her four grown children had come to be by her side as their mother lay dying. The illness had come so fast and had quickly brought the woman to death's door. Over the course of the illness, people from the church had come, laying hands on her and praying for healing, but there was no improvement. She continued to get worse.
One evening the couple was called by one of the children, "Come quickly, mother has died!" By the time the two had arrived the woman had been dead for twenty minutes. The two checked for a pulse and confirmed that she had passed, but this was not the end. As the children huddled together in the corner of the room sobbing and comforting each other, the two began to pray. They lifted up the woman before God, asking Him to bring her back. They cried out to the One who had raised Jesus from the dead... to the One who had raised Lazarus from the grave. They pressed in.
After a time the woman's eyes began to flutter. There was life! They pressed in even harder and God continued to work. Soon she was speaking. The children could not believe their eyes. They rejoiced. The couple immediately saw an opportunity to tell the children about Jesus. And one by one, each one of this mother's four grown children gave their hearts to Jesus.
Praise God from whom ALL blessings flow!

An Eternity Spent With God
I was in Central America staying in the home of one of our local leaders in Villa Nueva, Guatemala. They are an awesome couple who are very involved in what the Lord is doing in that area. One morning the Lord put one of their friends on their hearts and asked if we could visit her later in the morning. I agreed.
We arrived at the home of their friend who was obviously upset. Her mother, who looked to be in her late sixties, was in the front room of the house and was very sick. Her face was ashen. Her eyes were open, but she didn't seem to be there. The family informed us that their beloved Christian mother and grandmother had throat cancer.
We immediately began to pray asking the Lord for healing. After a time, each one of us had prayed. The air was filled with the Lord's amazing peace. It was then the Lord asked me to anoint her with oil. Anointing her forehead with oil in the sign of the cross, I blessed her. Then I felt the Lord wanted me to repeat this act, but this time He wanted me to directly apply the oil to her throat. I dipped my finger in the oil and prayed peace over her, making the sign of the cross directly on her throat. The very second I made the last stroke, completing the cross, the woman's chest heaved upward. Then as her chest collapsed, her spirit left her.
Suddenly, I realized this was not a death, but this was a birth. God had been waiting for us. We had the privilege to attend to one His very own as she left this earth on her way to an eternity spent with Him through our Lord Jesus Christ.
"Since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ." Romans 5:1
