The Lord showed me a picture of a vast ocean, 360 degrees of water, as far as the eye could see, to the horizon, just a huge expanse of water, very still and very calm. This ocean, I felt spoke of God’s love, the width, the length and the depth of it. The awesome volume of that water, God’s love. Love being the most significant part of God’s complex character and personality. 1 JOHN 4:16 says God is Love. MATT. 22:37,38 The greatest commandment based on love. To love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul and mind, and the second like it, to love your neighbour as you love yourself. 1PETER 4:8 declares that love has the power to cover a multitude of sins. GAL. 5:22, Love is the first fruit mentioned, and all the other fruits are rooted from this first fruit, and as EPH. 3:17 says, May you be rooted deep in love and founded securely on love. 1 COR. 13 says we can do everything, give everything, but if we have not love, we profit nothing. And of course JOHN 3:16, For God so loved the world that he gave His only Son. God’s love, like the vast ocean, calm and peaceful, yet very powerful, and loaded with treasures in the depths of the unknown. I looked around, and the ocean seemed alone, in solitude, and most of the activity was far from this place. My focus fell on many different activities….. On the ocean, to one side, I saw a few ocean liners. I felt that the people on these were cruising and comfortable, content to enjoy the material and spiritual benefits around, even the kindness and goodwill of other Christians, often feeding off them, but not making much of an effort to seek God, themselves. The ocean was also dotted with sailboats, riding the wind. These people are eager to be where the Spirit is moving, only to satisfy their spiritual highs, just feeding the emotions, but not wanting to deal with anything in their lives. The sailboat riders would sometimes fall out of their boats into the water, but they’d quickly climb back into the boats. This speaks of the times when they would receive a touch from God, but afraid to surrender to the Holy Spirit, quickly shake it off, to remain in control of themselves. My focus moved to the shore, where children were playing and laughing, splashing about in the little waves, lapping about their feet. These people are those seeking manifestations, fooling with the anointing, not prepared to take their spiritual walk seriously, therefore never growing to maturity. The people in the ocean liners, on the sailboats, on the shore, all on or near the ocean, but not in the ocean. The purpose of this word is by no means to condemn anyone, but I feel God wants us to examine ourselves, not through our own eyes, but through His. As we go through this word, we need to ask the Lord to expose anything He wants to cleanse us from. Sometimes we only see our immediate surroundings, it’s good to get a broader perspective. So whatever He shows us, we need to repent, and desire to come up to a higher place in Him. I will go on….. I moved away from the ocean, inland, up the river, and I saw many different activities. All along the river, people were busy doing things, moving to and from the water, a hive of activity. My focus fell on some people washing white clothing. They were working hard, scrubbing away. I felt the Lord say that these people are doing good works in their own strength, because they are trying to earn their salvation and approval from God and man. It is only by the Holy Spirit, are we washed by the Word and the cleansing power of the Blood of Jesus. Only He washes our garments white as snow. The other busy people moving to and fro, from the land to water, speaks of people juggling the cares of the world with church work, too busy to spend the time with God, never getting as far as the water’s edge, so unable to hear God’s voice to know His will. Further up, were people paddling in a canoe, against the current. These are those in rebellion and disobedience. Throw away the paddle and allow the current to turn you around to go the right direction! I saw others learning to swim. They wouldn’t go any deeper in the water until they learnt to swim properly. These are relying on their head knowledge to get closer to God. Reasoning and logic instead of faith and trust. Further inland, away from the ocean, the water became dirty and stagnant. I came to the swamp where people were struggling with their feet tangled in the marshy vegetation. These are bound by the spirit of religion. Trapped by their own judgment and criticism. Nearby, were others stuck in the mud. These are people caught up by the problems and cares of the world, when serving God and going to Church is a drag. Then there were others nowhere near the waters edge, on dry land. They are controlled by the ways of the world. Maybe you are none of these people, maybe you are making your way deeper into the river, and going with the flow of the current, but wherever you are, come in deeper, says the Lord. How? You may be asking. Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Love is like a magnet. Love and relationship go hand in hand. Be still and know He is God! Rest from your own works, and be carried by the current of the river, for where will the river take you? Yes, the river will carry you to the open sea, the ocean of God’s love. As you love, His love will draw you like a magnet to His ocean of love. I came back to the ocean of God’s love, and the Lord set my focus on the horizon. He said, “Yes, you think you see the multitude of My Love, but let Me take you beyond the horizon, for there is the realm of faith. But do not set your sight on the horizon, for then you will focus on as far as the eye can see, and if you attempt to go beyond the horizon in this way, you will never reach there, as it is in the natural, it is impossible.” So, how do I get past the horizon, past what I see, to the realm of faith, the unseen? Go deeper into My ocean of Divine Love, search for the hidden treasure and you will not be disappointed. It is only in the depths of My ocean the horizon will disappear! The time is coming, when God will flood the earth with His Spirit. He will come like a tidal wave. I do not want to be one caught up in the activities, previously mentioned. All still doing so will be swept away, and drowning people cannot help other drowning people. Where will the place of security be? When swimming in the surf, where do you go to avoid being dumped by a wave? Our place of security will be beneath the surface, in the depths of the Almighty! Finally, the Lord showed me another vision of the strong wind of the Holy Spirit whipping up the waters of the Great Ocean of Love. No longer calm and peaceful, but ever so powerful! This was the beginnings of the Tidal wave! Then the revelation hit me. Those dwelling in the depths of the ocean will be part of the Tidal wave! Where will you be when the tidal wave hits?

"For there shall be an earthquake in California," but God said, "It shall be of a magnitude that they shall say, 'It is one of the highest ever,' and they shall say, 'How is it that men were not killed and why is it that so many lives were spared?' It shall be My sign," says the Lord. "For out of the earth and because of this earthquake, there shall come something that shall bring a new energy and it shall start in California, and California shall not be bankrupt. It shall be the nation that shall be filled with prosperity because of what shall come from the earth," says the Lord! God's about to do the most unusual things He's ever done! Kim Clement: "Prepare Yourself For the Outpouring that Has Been Prophesied By the Prophets of the Centuries" Prophesied on May 22, 2009 - San Jose, California: The Spirit of the Lord says, "You have seen a dark cloud, you have seen a dark cloud and you have said, 'alas, why do we have this dark cloud, this foreboding cloud over us?'" But the Spirit of the Lord says, "Do you understand that a dark cloud simply means there will be an outpouring of a rain that shall come?" And some of you have said, "This dark cloud that is over us is hiding the sun." But the Spirit says, "It is just for a season and yet the sun shall shine again, but that dark cloud is carrying an outpouring of rain that you have never experienced." The Spirit of God says, "Look, for you have said, 'Why is this cloud over us?' Stop asking Me." A Prophetic Revival Has Begun For God said, "Prepare yourself for the outpouring that has been prophesied by the prophets of the centuries. You are standing at the right place at the right time, for the right reason at the right season. You're in the perfect place," says the Lord. There's a mantle all over this place; there's a mantle that God is casting. There is a mantle that God is casting just like He did when Elijah came to Elisha. He was plowing with twelve yoke of oxen and he was with the twelfth. You have come to the twelfth yoke of oxen. And the Spirit says, "Would you say these words in the presence of an economic crisis; would you say these words when men are hearing the sounds of socialism? Would you say these words?" God said, "Since when was a church that I am building dictated to by the world? Since when was your economy reckoned by media and the spirit of prognosis? A prophetic revival has begun. A prophetic revival has begun. What does this mean? It means God is going to do absurd things. God is going to do preposterous things. God is going to do things that men have never dreamed He would do. In actuality, God said, "These will be very real because I am about to reveal Myself in a way that I never have in the history of mankind," says the Spirit of the Living God. "Do not laugh at these words and say, 'They are jargon.' Do not laugh at these words and say, 'He is speaking gibberish.'" The Spirit of God said, "On the Day of Pentecost they thought that they were speaking gibberish, but actually the Holy Spirit was upon them." "What I'm Going to Do is Going to Be Called Absurd, Preposterous" We cannot think that this is a man or a personality that has come and stirred the place. I have stirred only the Spirit of God that has said, "I have opened a door that no man can shut and those who have been shaken now shall go through this door. Kingdoms have been shaken throughout the earth. Men are crying out for something more, but can they handle the absurdity of God? Can they handle the absurdity of what God can do?" For God said, "What I'm going to do is going to be called absurd, preposterous. It shall be called ineloquent, and they shall say of this move, 'The absurdity of it causes them to be marked as clinically insane.'" But God said, "Would you understand that it is My desire for you to enter into the realm of creativity? I am creating miracles." Men have said, "Where shall they come from?" Christ took the miracle, spat into the ground, created two eyeballs and shoved them into a blind man." God said, "Men are blind." "...A New Energy and It Shall Start in California" "For there shall be an earthquake in California," but God said, "It shall be of a magnitude that they shall say, 'It is one of the highest ever,' and they shall say, 'How is it that men were not killed and why is it that so many lives were spared?' It shall be My sign," says the Lord. "For out of the earth and because of this earthquake, there shall come something that shall bring a new energy and it shall start in California, and California shall not be bankrupt. It shall be the nation that shall be filled with prosperity because of what shall come from the earth," says the Lord! God's about to do the most unusual things He's ever done! A Door Has Opened I saw a door opening. It was a door that had been sealed for the centuries; a door that Daniel saw, a door that Ezekiel saw. This is a door that they saw and knew that only at a certain point in time could it be opened. Now this presence that is here is for your benefit. I am telling you as a prophet that this is a time in the history of mankind, of the Church, that men shall look back and say, "Do you remember that day in the month of May of 2009?" No, I'm not being over dramatic. I'm telling you that a door has opened. A door has opened and the serpent will try and spew out of his mouth water to create a flood. But God said, "I will give you, My chosen, two wings which shall carry you away to a place of safety and a place of refuge. You shall not be affected by the economy, you shall not be affected by the plagues, you will not be affected by swine or bird flu or whatever flu," God says! "You shall have a divine protection and they shall say to you, 'How is it that you and your house were not affected by this? How is it that you and your business are not affected by it? How is it that you and your church were not affected by this?'" For the Spirit of God said, "A door has opened and no man shall shut it. Therefore get ready, for this that I am going to do they shall call absurd. This that I shall do they shall say is preposterous. They shall say of this that it is not worthy of being called a move of God. They shall say that it is inappropriate, it is illogical, it is widely unreasonable." But God said, "Tonight I poured out a mantle; I threw a mantle on you, not only you in this building, not only the youth in this nation who have strayed, but they shall come back with a vengeance." "There is a Revelation Coming" But God said, "As in the days of Eli, the heavens were closed. But because of the presence of Samuel, a prophetic revival, the windows opened wide. For there is a revelation coming to the Church and people shall walk in revelation knowledge and they will no longer walk in historical knowledge only, but in revelation knowledge. In other words, I the Lord will reveal Myself. I will appear Myself as I appeared to Abraham, as I appeared to Jacob. There will be appearances that shall be tangible in your homes, in your churches." Listen now, God said, "I'm about to reveal Myself and revelation knowledge shall change the status of sin. The revelation of God shall change the status of sin," for God says, "In the presence of revelation, sin does not have the same status as it does in the absence of revelation. When Isaiah saw the Lord high and lifted up and His train filled the temple, God revealed Himself. The first thing that happened was that Isaiah said, 'I am a man of unclean lips,' and repentance took place. "There shall be such a great revelation of God in these next ten years that people shall come to repentance without being urged to, without being preached to, and they shall say, 'We are people of unclean lips,' and they shall come into the Kingdom by the millions," says the Spirit of God! God is about to reveal Himself in strange ways, they shall call it absurd, but His revelation, His appearances, Him revealing Himself shall change the status of sin in the Church. As God reveals Himself, sin shall have no power, and shall have no reign in marriages, in families, in churches. Unity shall be the order of the day. Kim Clement Prophetic Image Expressions

Thank you for sending this message out to the masses. I have not followed your ministry or Bob Jones over the past several years. I moved from Pasadena to Kansas City in 1990 right during the time the New Madrid fault event was supposed to take place and was very greatful the timing for that event was delayed. However, we do now have a greater understanding of what the Lord showed Bob Jones about this thing we now call tsunamis and how earth quakes and these tsunamis work hand in hand. A friend of mine sent this message to me and I will in turn forward it to those in my circle. In the mean time, I will join with you and others in the Body of Christ throughout the nations to cry out for mercy for those in Japan, on the west coast, and for people living in the western portion of our country. As an African American woman, I will also continue to pray that doors for this message will open with people such as Kirk Franklin, TD Jakes, Creflo Dollar, Donnie McClurkin, Tony Evens, and many others who seem to have the ear of people of color whether they are in a "charismatic" type fellowship or a mainline denomination. Also people like Joseph Prince and a friend of mine in Fresno, Dan Tovar. But since I now have it....thanks to Jim Riley, I will do what I can. Blessings to you and your ministry for releasing this word, in Jesus Name, Amen. DP

There is talking of a new earthquake in California. In Norway we have prophecies about a great earthquake in the North sea - destroying all sea-coasts around the bassin. Some has said it will come in August this year. Is there more prophecies about this? I would like confirmation before going out with it.

I think that the Lord has given another major piece of the puzzle about these EQ's. The Lord visited a Canadian prophetic man named Charlie Robinson back in the early 2000's, I think about 2003-4. What He said was,Charlie, how would you like to know what the Seven Thunders said in Revelation chapter 10?" You will recall that there was a gigantic angel who stood with his right foot on the sea and his left foot on the land, he cried out with a loud voice as when a lion roars. When the angel roared then the 7 Thunders spoke in reply to the angel. John was forbidden to reveal what the thunders said. The Lord told Charlie Robinson what they said! Here goes, He,Jesus said the Father God is judging the principalities and powers over the 7 continents and the 7 seas. He is ending their rulership and bringing them down. Jesus said very strongly that Father is NOT,NOT,NOT judging mankind, that comes later. But what is happening is just like when Jesus cast the demon out of the boy after they came down from the mount of transfiguration the demon 'shook' the boy violently and everyone thought he was dead. The Lord told Charlie the first one that Father was judging was the South East Asia region. If you'll recall, the earthquake and subsequent tsunami killed more than 300,000 people! The Lord opened the door for Charlie to go to many churches in S.E. Asia before the event in order to warn them of the danger coming their way. So, we see the Lord's mercy in the midst of these devastations. One more interesting thing about the regions that the demonic rulers are removed from is that there becomes an open Heaven in that area, and as each of the 7 continents and 7 seas are set free from their demonic strongholds the whole earth will be under an open Heaven. Because He First Loved us. Walt Spencor.

Back in 1987 I had felt an urgency to move our family from Florrida to Georgia. I had felt strongly in my spirit that an economic meltdown and food shortage was coming and that we needed to move our family in order to prepare. The neigborhood we lived in was not selling. The homes on the market had been for sale for several months to over a year,. The one across the street was a much nicer home and had been for sale for a year. WE preayed and asked the Lord if we were supposed to move that He would provide. We placed a hand written sign in the yard and we had a buyer either that night or the next day, I don't remember exactly. We were given what we were asking for it. My spirit is burnimg within me to urge everyone who can to plant a garden, even a small square foot garden. You can grow a lot of food that way. Try to get heirloom seeds so that you can save them. Learn to can. Prepare small pens and raise a few hens, rabbits, etc. It is not difficult to do. Googling will provide excellent information. Get the "Sqaure Foot Gardening Book". Plant edible landscaping in your lawns, thronless blackberries produce well, grape vines, strawberrys. Pray over your gardens for the health of the soil. Plant semi-dwarf fruti trees. Learn what weeds are edible and healthful. Freeze your grains, beans, flours and such for a few days before sealing them up to kill weevils. Simplicity. I say again, pray over your soil and water. Pray for the health of your gardens. Use your flowerpots for vegetables, hanging baskets. It is not hard. Joseph planned for the lean years. We can do a lot with a little. I have never once in the last twenty some odd years felt a lessening in what was to come. It is too come. You will even be able to trade seeds and young plants. Buy up canning jars. Pay heed and listen for the sound of hoofbeats is upon the earth. And remember, a wise man prepares for the needs of his childrens children.

Hi - I really enjoy Rick Joyner and his perspectives in God. My concern is that some of the comments posted are/have already moved into 'God is judging all the sinners' territory. It is unfortunate if we think this way. When these natural disasters and events occur (and have been prophesied) it is the 'kindness of God that leads to repentance, Rom2:4 and it states clearly in these scriptures that we show contempt for God himself if we set ourselves up as 'Judges' of others - Romans2:1-4. My role/response is to LOVE people not judge them! I am not saying we should not be wise and look at the times we live in and ponder what is God saying to me individually and to us as a Body of Believers but I do not believe we are to think this is 'God's judgement on all the bad people' . There was a lot of talk before Katrina hit New Orleans that it was God's judgement on the Homosexual community - from what I understand the Homosexual neighbourhood/community was left standing after Katrina had been through......Food for thought, blessings to all!

Dear Rick, Thanks for all the insight, truly devastating for all the people in the world! William Braham prophesied over 40 years ago that there was going to be a devastating earthquake in the future in California I'm sure you know this. And he said some of the land would actually go into the ocean. I have been to MorningStar church and met Bob Jones at Moravian falls. Looking forward to part two and would really like to know when this was prophesied by Bob Jones and where, and if more than once in churches. I think it might give more credibility to people who are a little leery of the prophetic message and let them understand a little bit more about prophesying. May God bless all!

Why is the Japanese earthquake thought to be such a "demarcation"? What about the Asian earthquake where so many more people died, the world was bumped off of it's axis, etc, etc. I looked back in your "special bulletins" and found no comments.

I watched your broadcast today, and I also watched a video interview with Jim Berkland a geologist who predicted the 1989 World Series quake. He is predicting a large quake later this month in Calf. To watch the interview go to http://politicsandfinance.blogspot.com/2011/03/major-california-earthquake-predicted.html

God Bless you Rick Joyner. May the Lord continue to give you revelation on this time/season we are in. Those who have ears hear what the Spirit of the Lord has to say. Speak Lord for your sheep hear your voice.

God bless you. The Lord has called me from my youth as a prophet unto the church. In 2007 as i was about to step outside, i heard " words fall from heaven " saying.."by reason of the watchers concerning San Francisco, cast her down, she shall be thrown down"...In 2010 in a vision. I stood next to a railroad track, a homeless man was sitting on the ground as i stood over him giving him a cup of water and sharing the gospel with him. I heard and saw a train coming down the track almost out of control with it's horn blowing. On the front of the train were two large clocks and the hands were spinning wildly. The Spirit interpreted it....the runaway train is an economic collapse that is coming, the clocks mean the time for this is past due, it will produce many homeless as you saw and the church must be prepared to care for these both materially and spiritually. And finally in the month of December 2010. The Lord revealed to me that when the new year comes (2011) you will enter into part of Psalm 91...thousands will fall all around, but those connected to my grace it will not come near. I foretold at this December gathering how i was shown a 'massive' earthquake under the ocean, moving repidly, so powerful that the earth would almost move on it's axis...........I just wanted to share these few words with you. The Spirit reveals to me that not only will there be global disasters, but there will also be regional shields from such disasters, each region where believers dwell, if they will hear the Spirit they can be not only sheltered , but excel to God's glory. Thank you and God keep and preserve you.

I live on the West Coast in Seattle, WA. I am wondering if there is more Godly info out there on how to prepare for the days ahead? Thank You, Derek

Dear Mr. Joyner, Thank you always for your bulletin which I always love to read and get spiritual inputs about current events. I just wanted to let you know that 5 men working directly at the nuclear plants are members of the Fukushima Baptist church. Further they are planing to put new pipes to get the water flow. To fullfill this project a Mr. Sato Naoyoshi who is a Christian will be in charge of it. Please pray for good success. We are praying and crying out to God for his mercy and help. And I'm sure he hears our prayers! Thank you also for all your prayers and support for Japan! God bless you all. In Love, Erika Marutani

We just got Bob's dream and directive to begin to intercede for Japan and that our destinies are intertwined. I will share this with our congregation tomorrow. Thanks for all you are doing!

Rick, I have been reading your prophetic journals for about 6 years now and have listened to your current updates for as long as you have been doing them. I so appreciate your input and your prophetic voice for America and for the church. My husband and I have a non-profit missions ministry and we are wondering exactly how we can prepare for the times coming. We have sought the Lord and are doing all we know to do. I feel like many times you bring such an accurate analysis but we would like more application and direction. I am not being critical at this point. I simply want to know what to do. I feel as if you have every intention to tell us however, perhaps you feel hesitant to do so. I pray for you. And your family. You are a blessing to the body of Christ. We just want more precise input as to how exactly we can prepare and what practable steps can be taken. Sincerely, Joy
