Given 12/19/99, Springs Harvest Fellowship
I saw a vision and the vision was of a field. It seems as though I could see some of you looking back at the year 1999 and you are saying, "I didn't think my field would look like this at the end of 1999. I thought it would have a lot more fruit produced. I thought that I was going to see abundance."
I began to feel the heart of God for some of you that you almost feel
like you have failed, that you have almost failed God. The Holy Spirit
began to speak to me, "No, no, no, it is not so." Then He said, "Now
look at this field like I look at this field." I began to see a field
and the Lord said, "What do you notice?"
I said, "I don't see too much. I just see ground." He said, "Yes, but
do you see weeds?" And I said, "No, I don't see weeds." And He said,
"You don't see weeds because my people this year allowed me to go into
their
lives and begin to deal with their character and begin to pull up those
weeds,
those things that didn't please me."
Can you feel the Holy Spirit on this? And I said well, Lord. And He said, "What else do you see? Do you see snakes?" And I said, "No, I don't see any snakes." He said, "Because my people allowed me to cast out demons from their lives and my people allowed me to put them in the fire." I knew the Lord was pleased with you; that even though it has been a hard, hard year, that you have a field that is prepared for harvest.
I began to take a closer look at that field and I could see there were just furrows in that field and the Lord said, "Cindy, what else do you see? Do you see that my people allowed me to break up the fallow ground, their hard hearts, that in the midst of trials and temptation and satanic opposition, that when I cut that plow into their hearts and lives, they said Yes, Lord? That they said, 'I am not going to murmur, I'm not going to complain, I am just going to say be it unto me according to your word, oh God!'"
So I began to see a field prepared for harvest and he said, "Cindy, what else do you see?" And the Lord said there are seeds in these furrows. Many of you think your life is dormant. The Lord began to show me visions that were dormant, things that you thought you would accomplish and dreams you had even ten, fifteen years ago, five years ago. And they just didn't happen and you think they are dead and the Lord says, "All those seeds are not dead, my children. I want you to take another look, for in that seed is life, and I'm going to call that life forth." And I saw the Holy Spirit cause it to rain. The power of God began to cause a mighty outpouring of the Spirit of God, the latter and the former rain began to fall on that seed.
The Lord said to me, "Look Cindy, I want you to see something else." I saw transplant. I saw Him putting this crop here and that crop there and moving plants around, protecting and nurturing this and that little plant. I saw him putting this crop here and that crop there and moving plants around, protecting and nurturing this and that little plant. Then I saw a miraculous thing. I saw acorns that were planted in the ground and they just sprang up like that. It was so suddenly and the Lord says in the year 2000 it is going to be a time of suddenlies. That if you will believe that I am going to send the rain, if you believe that I am a good God, if you will believe that those seeds aren't dead, if you will believe that the Spirit of God is for you and not against you, you are going to begin to see everything you have dreamed spring up. The Lord says I am sending the rain. I am sending what you need. I am sending provision. I am going to protect you.
I began to see warriors that stood and beat off the fowls of the air. Those birds that would come and pluck up the seed and the Lord says, "I am going to protect you in this year. I'm going to put my hand upon you. You are coming to a new day and a new place that you have never dreamed. So the Lord says you must see your field like I see your field. You must see your life like I see your life. You must understand that I am for you and not against you. Don't look at those things that yet need to change. I want you to see your field in your life like I see you. I say to you well done, children, well done!"
