Today I received an e-mail from Doug Addison´s min­istry InLight Con­nec­tion. When I read it I felt that this is really a word for me now and I pray that it will “get” you the same way. Pre­pare your­self. This is good times!

Here it is:

“God spoke to me that this year on the Day of Pen­te­cost there will be a new release of power and cre­ativ­ity from Heaven.

Quite often, peo­ple hear a prophecy like this and they expect the sky to split open and the audi­ble voice of God to reveal their des­tiny to them. I wish it would be like that, but usu­ally when God releases some­thing new, there is a shift that hap­pens and we begin to see it unfold over a few weeks and months. Of course, those who are not watch­ing for new things that God is bring­ing can miss it (Matthew 25).

The actual Day of Pen­te­cost is May 23. I am expect­ing God to do some­thing new in my life and min­istry and you can expect the same. There are new oppor­tu­ni­ties com­ing to many peo­ple in the month of June.

We are being posi­tioned for an increase of God’s power that will cause our evan­ge­lis­tic efforts to become more effec­tive through­out the rest of 2010.

I wrote an arti­cle on this that has more details includ­ing how to not be majorly effected by the eco­nomic cri­sis. You can read about it on my blog by Click­ing Here or vis­it­ing www.dougaddison.com.”

I have posted the entire blog post from Doug´s site so please con­tinue and read and let this enter your spirit man and build up expec­ta­tion in you.

Day of Pen­te­cost: New Release from Heaven
Doug Addison

The night before Jesus was arrested, He cel­e­brated a Passover meal with His dis­ci­ples in the leg­endary “Last Sup­per.” Fifty days later, God ini­ti­ated a major turn­ing point in the story of His peo­ple with the birth of the Chris­t­ian Church that occurred on the Jew­ish fes­ti­val of Pentecost.

God spoke to me that this year will be a sig­nif­i­cant time for the Church on the Day of Pen­te­cost and the weeks to fol­low. It may not have the impact that the orig­i­nal day of Pen­te­cost did in Acts 2, but there is def­i­nitely a sig­nif­i­cant change com­ing and a release of new power and cre­ative anoint­ing from Heaven. He also revealed deeper insight into the power of “Passover” and “Pen­te­cost” that is still avail­able to us today.

The power of a “Spir­i­tual Passover”
Passover is a Jew­ish fes­ti­val that reminds us of God’s great­ness when He gave instruc­tions to the Israelites in Egypt that would cause the spirit of death to “pass over” their houses (Exo­dus 11–12).

The spir­i­tual aspect of “Passover” is still avail­able to us today. When judg­ment or tragedy comes in any form– whether eco­nomic, spir­i­tual, envi­ron­men­tal, or what­ever– God will most often let His peo­ple know how to avoid it or at least how to suf­fer min­i­mal dam­age. In some cases God will even show His peo­ple how to profit dur­ing a down­turn (Gen­e­sis 41). The key is to lis­ten to God’s voice as He speaks to us and fol­low the instruc­tions that He gives.

I proph­e­sied over a busi­ness­man from South Africa that some type of dis­as­ter would come to his area but it would result in God bless­ing his busi­ness four-times. He lis­tened to God and bought a stock­pile of raw mate­r­ial. When the eco­nomic dis­as­ter hit and prices went up, he was able to sell his prod­ucts and make a mil­lion dol­lars in eight months (exactly four times the amount he invested).

My dream of a bad storm
I had a dream ear­lier this year that a fierce storm (maybe the worst ever) was com­ing. It appeared that we were going to suf­fer great losses and maybe even die. Every­one was pan­ick­ing and run­ning to take cover. Faith rose up in me and I felt an anoint­ing from God to stand and watch this storm. I saw a con­sum­ing fire in the storm and, just as it approached my house, it passed over and imme­di­ately it was a bright sunny day with a rain­bow in the sky. I was amazed that there was no dam­age at all to my prop­erty or my loved ones.

I awoke from the dream real­iz­ing that we need to stand in the midst of the storms com­ing against us per­son­ally and as a nation. God will give us instruc­tions on what to do and when to do it. The key is to remain at peace and do not be afraid.

The power of Pen­te­cost
As you may know, the Day of Pen­te­cost marked the release of the Holy Spirit upon believ­ers. It is inter­est­ing that the account in Acts 2:17–18 men­tions that prophecy, dreams, and visions will increase and be avail­able to everyone.

Acts 2:17–18 NIV
In the last days, God says, I will pour out my Spirit on all peo­ple. Your sons and daugh­ters will proph­esy, your young men will see visions, your old men will dream dreams. Even on my ser­vants, both men and women, I will pour out my Spirit in those days, and they will proph­esy.

That out­pour­ing resulted in over 3,000 peo­ple com­ing into God’s King­dom that day (Acts 2:40).

Prophetic word
This year there will be a release of “Pen­te­cost Power” that will result in the most effec­tive evan­ge­lism we have seen in a long time. In March we came out of a 50-month wilder­ness that lasted from Jan­u­ary 1, 2006–March 20, 2010 (the first day of Spring). Ten days later, Passover was observed on March 30th. Fifty days after Passover, May 23, 2010, will be Pentecost.

This year God will release a new, fresh anoint­ing on the day of Pen­te­cost. This will include new vis­i­ta­tions from God in var­i­ous forms, the increase of prophecy, dreams, and visions, and new assign­ments from God.
There are sev­eral new doors open­ing in June that have not been there before. These new oppor­tu­ni­ties will take the mes­sage of Jesus into some places that have not been open to God pre­vi­ously. This is build­ing up to “The Sum­mer of Fun for 2010.”
