May's Spirit of Prophecy Bulletin

Spirit of Prophecy Bulletin
by Bill and Marsha Burns

 02May - THE TRUMPET - I speak 2 u, My people, today, and I encourage u 2 sow the seeds of the Jubilee. For when the Jubilee comes there is a profoundness, a reality that is spiritual, by way of revelation that reveals who I am and reveals My goodness 2 My people. For in the understanding of this, the special Jubilee in this season, u will have the understanding that I choose 2 bless u according 2 your obedience and your faith. I choose 2 bless u with abundance even during these disastrous times that plague this earth. So rise up today w/new hope; walk in the power of this day and in the power of a prophetic culmination of those words which have been spoken. In fact, those words will establish a spiritual atmosphere that u can abide in, that u can be renewed in, that u can be blessed in, says the Most Holy.

02May - Behold, I go b4 u 2 prepare a way 4 u. Stay close 2 Me so that u do not deviate from the path, 4 u live in dangerous times. Your obedience 2 My leading is of vital importance. You must not stray from the way of righteousness in this hour. My word will illuminate the path b4 u so that your feet do not slip, says the Lord. Be steady! 
Psalms 119:105 - Your word is a lamp 2 my feet and a light 2 my path.

03May -  I was reminded of the Israelites in Babylon when they hung their harps on the willows, and I heard the Lord say, "Many of u, My people, have not raised your voices in song or played your instruments bcoz of the oppression of the times u live in. But, I am releasing u from bondage 2 sing a new song that will come forth w/supernatural joy that will transcend your circumstances and afflictions. This is the joy that comes from abiding in the Spirit; the true joy of war and victory," says the Lord.

Psalm 137:1 - By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down, yea, we wept When we remembered Zion. We hung our harps upon the willows in the midst of it. For there those who carried us away captive asked of us a song, and those who plundered us requested mirth, saying, "Sing us one of the songs of Zion!" How shall we sing the LORD'S song In a foreign land? If I forget u, O Jerusalem, let my right hand forget its skill.

04May - Beloved, if u will pay attention and watch, I am going 2 reveal 2 u the thoughts and emotions that are in opposition 2 My word, says the Lord. I am raising up a company of those who will reign with Me, but u cannot rule when u do not abide by the rules, the spiritual laws of My kingdom. Much of what u entertain in the way of thoughts and emotions are habits that must be broken if u are 2 rise up in the power of the Spirit. A word of caution, however, u will be tempted 2 move into the condemnation of the flesh instead of allowing My correction 2 come 2 u as sons.

Hebrews 8:10 - For this is the covenant that I will make w/the house of Israel after those days, says the LORD: I will put My laws in their mind and write them on their hearts; and I will be their God, and they shall be My people.

05May - It is My Word that reveals the thoughts and intentions of your heart. Let the truth separate the flesh from the Spirit and expose your motives. I want 2 motivate u w/purity and righteousness 2 do all that I have set b4 u 2 accomplish. Be aware, however, that the enemy will do his utmost 2 keep u from walking and living in the Spirit. Yield 2 My leading, and I will direct your steps, says the Lord.

Hebrews 4:12 - For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even 2 the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

06May - I saw in the spirit a whirlwind blowing through bringing a sense of chaos and confusion w/it. And, I heard the Lord say: This wind is a test of your endurance. If u give in 2 the force of the wind, chaos and confusion will dominate. But, if u will stand still and refuse 2 react 2 this ill wind, u will find that it will strengthen your inner man. Don't lose your focus; be strong and resolute, says the Lord.

Exodus 14:13a - And Moses said 2 the people, "Do not be afraid. Stand still, and C the salvation of the LORD, which He will accomplish 4 u today."

09May - THE TRUMPET - I say 2 u, My people, have u ears 2 hear? And, if u have heard then u know the season in which u live, and u will know the time of elevation that is at hand. I am calling across the land, and I am searching 2 and fro, and I am bringing forth a people who will C and know the reality of My kingdom. They will show many the path that leads 2 life and the trail that leads 2 Zion. They themselves will lead those that are lost along the way and those that are floundering in the tragedy of a mixed doctrine. For purity and truth shall flow forth. Is it not written that mercy and truth will kiss. Indeed, when truth comes, My mercy abounds in the land. And, it is 4 this reason that I give u this opportunity 2 have eagle vision and have yourselves a greater level of communication in the Spirit than ever u have had b4. So, encourage yourself and rise up and fulfill your destiny. Become a watchman on the wall of this season so that u may C, hear, and know the reality of My soon coming, says the Lord God Almighty. Rise up.
 
09May - Wake up, My beloved, and be renewed. Arise 2 a place of life and energy both spiritually and naturally. I will come 2 u like the rain that refreshes and softens the ground of your heart 2 allow My expression of life and growth. It is indeed time 2 break up the fallow ground of your heart, those places that have become hardened and unproductive as a result of difficult challenges. Allow Me 2 remove the darkness of the past and flood u w/the light of My love and hope, says the Lord.
Hosea 10:12 - Sow 4 yourselves righteousness; reap in mercy; break up your fallow ground, 4 it is time 2 seek the LORD, till He comes and rains righteousness on u. 

10May - I speak to those who feel disconnected either from Me, says the Lord, or those who have been a source of encouragement in the past. You have not set out deliberately 2 pull away, but your focus has shifted and your life has taken a different turn. Now is the time 2 re-evaluate your life's direction and consider the relationships that are important to you and then choose to let some go while reconnecting w/others. Be reminded that u are in a season of restoration, and there are things that need 2b recovered at this time.
Proverbs 25:25 - As cold water 2 a weary soul, so is good news from a far country.

11May - Take the time 2b quiet so that u can be sensitive 2 My wisdom and My leading. When u give into the temptation 2 entertain emotional turmoil, u will no longer hear My voice. Instead, the doors will open 4 the enemy's confusion 2 flood in. Refuse 2 allow the devil 2 have any ground in u whatsoever, quiet your soul, and trust Me 2 direct your steps, says the Lord. I am your help in times of trouble; rely on Me.
Psalm 9:9-10 - The LORD also will be a refuge 4 the oppressed, a refuge in times of trouble. And those who know Your name will put their trust in You; 4 You, LORD, have not forsaken those who seek You.

12May - Haven't I said that I would give u the treasures of darkness and hidden riches in secret places? Stop and ponder. You will find that I have brought the light of revelation in areas of your life that u didn't even expect. Rejoice that u are growing in understanding bcoz this understanding will make u more effective in My kingdom, says the Lord. I have given u a taste and a glimpse of My glory, which will make u desire even more.
Isaiah 45:3 - I will give u the treasures of darkness and hidden riches of secret places, that u may know that I, the LORD, Who call u by your name, Am the God of Israel.
 
13May- I delight in those whose hearts are hungry 4 more, and 2 u I will reveal the secrets of the kingdom. Your pursuit will bring great reward, 4 I will draw near 2 those who come near 2 Me, says the Lord. I will speak 2 u who have ears 2 hear and open hearts 2 receive all that I have. So, I say, pursue; come 2 Me. Seek Me w/all of your heart, and I will be found by u. It is My great pleasure 2 give u the kingdom.
Luke 12:32 -  Do not fear, little flock, 4 it is your Father's good pleasure 2 give u the kingdom.

16May - THE TRUMPET - Arise again, My people. For, is it not written that I will make you again another vessel--a stronger vessel? I, Myself, will bring the touch of My hand upon your shoulder and empower you with greater authority than ever you have walked in. I will bring you to a higher level of faith than ever before. You are the mighty men of this season; the worshiping warriors that go forth to defeat the works of the enemy. Come forth and declare the victory even before you can see the results of the battle. For I say that when you declare the victory beforehand it is a manifestation of faith. That faith releases My power, My goodness, and My strength. It will move you to greater heights. So, rise up and receive that which I am doing, says the Lord.
 
16May - You have fought to make spiritual progress and to overcome the enemy. Now, maintain your victory. Hold your ground. Expect retaliation, but know that he has no authority to remove what I have given to you. Be strong and courageous. Set a watch and refuse to be bamboozled by the devil's lies, says the Lord. 
Luke 19:13b -  Occupy till I come.

17May - I see your heart and your desire 2b righteous, and I honor your vigilance against all that is unholy. But, u must not become obsessed w/introspection, 4 that is a work of the flesh and will bring condemnation. I want u 2 trust Me 2 bring conviction and 2 lead u in the path of righteousness. Just yield 2 the moving of My Spirit upon your heart, and I will bring correction and make it very clear 2 u whenever u step out of the flow of My Spirit, says the Lord. 
Psalms 23:3 -  He restores my soul; He leads me in the paths of righteousness For His name's sake.

18May - I am the light of the world, says the Lord. That light is shining in your heart even now 2 reveal the places of darkness where the enemy can build a stronghold against u and against all that is holy. I want u 2 allow the light of truth 2 illuminate and dispel the darkness and even the shadows that lurk. This is a work of discernment and faith. Discernment comes when u can C clearly and w/precision. This is no time 2 try 2 play guessing games in the realm of the spirit. There will be no more pretending as I separate the true from the false.
Hebrews 5:14 - But solid food belongs 2 those who are of full age, that is, those who by reason of use have their senses exercised 2 discern both good and evil.

19May - Let the revelation of My kingdom flow like a river so that u can come 2 a clear understanding of your purpose in it. I tell u honestly that nothing that manifests in and thru u by My Spirit is wasted. If u have eyes 2 C and ears 2 hear, u will know that as u surrender completely 2 Me I will cause light and life 2b established in u. Maintain your spiritual focus, and keep your faith strong, says the Lord.

Q: How do we 'surrender' 2 You Lord? What does this really mean?
A: 


Psalm 121:1-8 - I will lift up my eyes 2 the hills-From whence comes my help? My help comes from the LORD, Who made heaven and earth. He will not allow your foot 2b moved; He who keeps u will not slumber. Behold, He who keeps Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep. The LORD is your keeper; the LORD is your shade at your right hand. The sun shall not strike u by day, nor the moon by night. The LORD shall preserve u from all evil; He shall preserve your soul. The LORD shall preserve your going out and your coming in from this time forth, and even 4evermore.


20May - You have been called and set aside for My purposes alone. Do not allow the enemy's persuasion to lead you into worldliness and complacency. You are living in the time of the great falling away where apostasy abounds, and that which is ungodly and unholy will be presented as not only acceptable but desirable. Refuse to compromise the truth. My Word is your standard; measure everything by it, says the Lord.
Titus 2:11-14 -  For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared 2 all men, teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly in the present age, looking 4 the blessed hope and glorious appearing of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ, who gave Himself 4 us, that He might redeem us from every lawless deed and purify 4 Himself His own special people, zealous 4 good works.

23May - Mon -THE TRUMPET -I hear the Lord saying, arise from the place where u have been seated. Arise and come into the place that I have 4 u. Come and let us reason together. Come and take a little journey w/Me 4 the journey will be both challenging and satisfying. This journey is going 2b a spiritual experience that u have never walked thru b4. So, come in the power of this day. Come in this anointing. Come w/the presence of My hand upon your shoulder. I will lead u and guide u and take u in 2 this place in the fulfillment of your destiny, says the most Holy One.
 
23May-Mon - I have set aside a modern-day land of Goshen in the realm of the Spirit where My people can thrive regardless of economic uncertainty and perilous conditions in the world. Come into this place of protection and anointing by faith. Come under My covering and favor, says the Lord. I will take care of u.  
1 Peter 2:9-10 - But u are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that u may proclaim the praises of Him who called u out of darkness into His marvelous light; who once were not a people but are now the people of God, who had not obtained mercy but now have obtained mercy.

 
24May - Be encouraged and learn 2 live in the moment, 4 as u learn the art of living in the moment and seeking My face, that moment will become a treasure 2 u rather than a judgment. It will become a blessing 2 u rather than a curse 2 u. I am seeking those who are Mine, and they must be found seeking My kingdom first. If u do not learn 2 live in the moment, the signs that I provide, the instruction that I desire 2 impart 2 u, and the blessing of that moment will all pass u by and the opportunity will be gone. So, become spiritually awake 2 such an extent that u are living in present reality. Make sure in this season that u take advantage of opportunities as they present themselves, says the Lord.

24May - Beloved, establish justice in your own heart and do what is right, 4 I delight in goodness and Am merciful 2 those who show mercy. I value uprightness and will bless those who consider others more highly than themselves. Maintain a standard of honesty and fairness regardless of the corruption that abounds on the earth, says the Lord. Overcome evil with good.  
Amos 5:24 - But let justice run down like water, and righteousness like a mighty stream.

25May- My eyes are looking 2 and fro throughout the whole earth 2 C who will speak 4 Me. I am looking 4 purity of heart and profound precision in hearing My voice. I seek those who will rise above the mundane words of self-proclaimed prophets whose words are part iron and part clay--part Spirit and part flesh. For those words do not carrying the strength of My anointing, nor do they give true direction or change the lives of My people. My voice will be heard in the secret places as a still, small voice, but it also resounds, resonates and creates. Will you hear when I speak, says the Lord? 

Isaiah 6:8 - Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying: "Whom shall I send, and who will go 4 Us?" Then I said, "Here am I! Send me."

26May -  Pride has no credibility and does not represent My kingdom in truth. Prepare 2 receive correction that will place u in a position of strength thru humility. My representatives and ambassadors must be trustworthy and believable b4 they can usher anyone into the eternal kingdom. The call of duty has gone forth, and I am mustering My troops under the banner of the humble heart. Those who hear My call will come forth under that banner, says the Lord of Hosts.
Proverbs 22:4 -  By humility and the fear of the LORD are riches and honor and life.

27May - You are children of My kingdom where light and love rule and where darkness has no place. Arise 2 your position where Satan has nothing in u and u have nothing in him. Be done w/criticism, judgment, hatred, gossip, slander and backbiting, 4 these choices and attitudes allow the devil access 2 your soul. I say again, refuse 2 allow him 2 use u as an instrument of his evil intentions. Let My kingdom be established in u, says the Lord.

Luke 6:41-42 - "And why do u look at the speck in your brother's eye, but do not perceive the plank in your own eye? Or how can u say 2 your brother, 'Brother, let me remove the speck that is in your eye,' when u yourself do not see the plank that is in your own eye? Hypocrite! First remove the plank from your own eye, and then u will C clearly 2 remove the speck that is in your brother's eye."

30May - I say 2 u, My beloved, that My eyes are searching the land 4 those who have hearts after Me. And, I am searching 4 those who are seekers of My presence and of the spiritual understanding of My word. I am seeking after the seers--those who will C in the realm of the Spirit. I am releasing the anointed ones; My holy ones that will become My army that shall arise and go forth in power. There shall never be a generation like them again, 4 they shall be a final generation, a glorious generation, and a generation that will receive their commands from the Lord of Hosts. They shall be sent forth 2 accomplish My purposes. So I say, recognize that this indeed is the end of the age and it is the prelude 2 those things 2 come that will bring devastation upon the earth. There4, position yourself by faith this day and dedicate yourself 2 Me 4 My purposes, says the Lord.
 
30May - The enemy continues 2 look 4 chinks in your armor or places where u are not completely protected so that he can attack. These places of weakness are bcoz the desires of your soul [mind, will and emotions] take preeminence over truth and righteousness. U will have prime opportunities 2 rise above the works of the flesh and overcome the works of darkness. I have given u authority and the ability 2 gain the victory, says the Lord. 
 Ephesians 5:11 - And have no fellowship w/the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather expose them.

31May - In a vision I saw 12 stars in a circle, which represented 2 me divine government, and I was also reminded of the 12 stones of Gilgal that symbolizes renewed covenant. Then, I saw what looked like a comet moving rapidly thru that circle of stars toward the earth. And, I heard the LORD say that a powerful, supernatural, and life-changing anointing 2 receive a fresh revelation from heaven has been released. Those who have a pure heart and have maintained their child-like faith and wonder will be able 2 receive this anointing.
Matthew 5:8 - Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.
