Introduce the night
· Come and See New Years Eve
o We are gathering to hear from God. The night has been designed to position ourselves before God to hear specifically for ourselves, our family, church, and beyond.
o If it is worth gathering to hear from God it is well worth recording so that you have book or remembrance wherein it is written—the voice of God.
· We know God speaks and we know we have been equipped to hear. Three aspect of tonight.
o We have the ministry stations- where you will go as families to receive prophetic ministry
o We have the art station where you, especially the children we be encouraged and have opportunity to hear from God and to also record the things they see by drawing, writing, or coloring the Word of the Lord.
o And we will have the burn station. Two things happen here.
§ One, we write down the thing (s), attitude, etc that we want to be rid of in 2010 and as a prophetic act we will write them down and toss them into the fire of destruction as a proclamation to be done with them in 2010.
§ Secondly, we write down the things that we are committing ourselves to be more passionate about in 2010 and to burn with passion to see them manifest in our lives.
· All of this will take us hearing God to do. The prophetic teams have to hear. The prayer teams have to hear and each of you should be hearing from God throughout the whole process.
· What do I look for when I hear?
o See pictures
o Feel Physical sensations
o Feel emotion
o Hear in your head thoughts of God
· When we finish this portion we will receive the Forerunner Dance Team’s ministry and then I will share some thoughts on 2010.
· All through the night we will be covered by worship. So when you are between stations engage God. Parents help your children to discover God in worship.

Prophetic Insight for 2010 Three parts: the believer/ the church/ the nation.
· The Believer
o Year of intensified faith.
§ One, the times will require it. I do not think it chance that on both Christmas Eve and last Sunday that God had me address the spirit of fear. I believe that call to be both a call to recognize fear already at work and a call to prepare for overcoming fear in our future.
§ Two, intimacy with Christ will become more personal to more believers.
§ Prayer will take on new dimensions for us 2010.
§ 2010 brings with it a new call to simplicity and an investing in the Kingdom of God. I see the church finding pleasure in Kingdom investment—those who give to the poor lend to the Lord, type of thing.
§ Dependence must be upon Him and that takes faith.
o Weariness will increase unless you act now
§ Some of you who have been battling weariness will have to change your focus. What you thought was priority is wearing you out. Other’s have lives that are filled with too much ‘fluff’ and it takes you away from what is important.
§ Intimacy with Christ must be the prize we reach for or burn out will hit many. Mike Bickle said last year while here. “People who are intimate with Jesus do not burn out.”
§ I believe the fast will produce a new desire and discipline for the word of God.
o The testing of our faith produces patience – the ability to know God is at work when nothing seems to be happening, when to much is happening, and when the wrong things are happening.
o The generosity of God will be appreciated with gratitude this year. In spite of trouble, we will see God work in amazing ways.
o Relationships will have great grace on them in 2010—body soul and spirit. God will physically restore relationship, restore the soul of relationship and lead into a place of strong spiritual relationship. Shawn Bolz called them epic friendships last year.
· The Church
o Righteousness will become an increasing revelation and practice in the church. Righteousness will be the award winning message of 2010. Martin Luther received the revelation of the just shall live by faith in the midst of a stronghold of Catholicism—revival began. Year later John Wesley got the revelation that the just shall live by faith—a revival started that saved England. I believe the message of righteousness will be stirred again.
§ The balances will continue to weigh us—individually and corporately.
§ The revelation of righteousness will encourage us in our walk with God.
§ Righteousness will become a pleasure in itself and not a weight.
o Sermon on the Mount—know it, do it, live it.
o Reminder of Bob Jones word—when Oral Roberts passed away with six months the healing revival would begin. That would make the month of June a time to watch and believe for the outpouring.
§ We must protect against being offended at his coming. What do I mean? I mean when God comes we have to be ready for Him to come on His terms not ours. Some people are offended at the manifestations of God and we have to learn to discern and not take offense as God touches people.
o Prophets will step into a new realm of authority. The fear of the Lord will strike pockets of the earth because of the prophetic word. Some prophets will begin to be feared once again. Their authority will be recognized and forced to be reckoned with. Don’t be offended by this.
o Freedom Christian Center
§ FCC will be called to take on more of a forerunner likeness. What does that mean?
· To be real friend of the Bridegroom. Jn 3:27-20
· To live a radical Christian lifestyle
· To assume a fresh corporate stance in the place of prayer.
· To declare the coming of the Lord
· The picture of our call will be made clearer this year.
§ Time to come out of the kitchen—there will be much serving this year as a result of the all the time spent in preparation. The will be lots of connecting and enjoying the fruit of our labors.
§ I see continually picture of God prospering us here at Freedom. I see real rejoicing because we know it to be of God, boasting will be in the Lord. Financially but also real riches in the things that are important in this life.
· The Nation
o 2010 will be a year of increasing intensity regarding difficulty.
§ It will be more intense than 2009.
· I believe we will see terrorist activity on our soil once again in 2010.
· The banks will once again be tested not because of bad home loans but because of defaulting commercial loans. Commercial real estate will take a hit.
· I also feel that the insurance industry will take a major hit this year that will economically challenge financial institutions.
§ I believe that our grip on Israel as an ally will be tested and you will see the US begin to release our resolve to stand by them. We won’t abandon them—but we will see our resolve as an ally challenged.
§ It will be a year of opportunity such as we have not seen before.
§ It will be a year of real joy for those who know Him.
o Transition will be common place
§ I particularly felt for the men to study and be aware of emerging trends. Not that you have to be consumed with this but if you will inquire of the Lord and pay attention to your surroundings you will notice things by the Spirit of God and be positioned accordingly.
§ In the political realm we will see much more upheavals, scandals, and corruptions. This needs to be a serious prayer target because when some of the scandals come more corruption will rush into its place.
§ I also saw many more answering the call to enter the political realm to be a force of Godly influence there. They can’t be bought.
o Generation Revelation will come to our nation. The door will begin to open nationally for a generational message. Zeal for the generations will begin to be seen in the media.
§ A generational movie will be made that will take the box office.
§ The box office will increasingly support moral value movies while at the same time some of the darkest movies ever produced will greatly influence young people.
o Our spiritual roots as a nation will be awakened in 2010 and many will be surprise at the zeal with which young people embrace it.
