Prophetic Summit

Wow!  What an incredible night the Prophetic Summit was!  40 days of nightly worship, prayer and fasting definitely opened the heavens over us.  The word of the Lord was strong, powerful, clear and concise.  God is moving mightily in the state of Ohio and has a great future and hope prepared for us, Amen!  

The prophecies are in the process of being transcribed and then more details will be given, but awakening and reformation is beginning now!

While the 40 days of nightly worship and prayer at the Oasis have ended, UR120 continues throughout the state of Ohio for the next 80 days.  We have every night covered and many nights, there are multiple venues of worship taking place.  We will continue to update the is blog on a regular basis, so stay tuned!

The Oasis will continue having worship nights every Wednesday and Friday at 7p.m. for the next twelve weeks.   The next one will be this Wednesday, February 16.  

Continue praying over Ohio and come join us in worship when you can.  We are continuing to pray for God's glory and fire to fall upon us.  So expectant for all God is doing!

Have a blessed week!

Nights 38-40 - Anticipation is building!

Night after night, a sound has gone up from the people of UR120.  The sound has been unlike anything we've heard before.  We have prayed, worshipped, cried out to, praised, exalted, glorified and magnified our great God.  Prophetic words and songs have been declared.  New songs have come forth from God's people.  It has been nothing short of amazing!

Last night we ended by singing & declaring:

"We want to hear You!  We want to see You God! 

Open the heavens!"

A note from Apostle Tim Sheets:

Only 1 more night until the Prophetic Summit!  The 40 days of fasting and prayer, and 40 nights of worship have prepared an atmosphere like nothing else I've ever experienced.  Already the prophetic insight has been incredible.  Anticipation is so high for tomorrow night!

Come expectant... Come in faith... Come fired up.  Bring van loads with you.

We will hear what our Lord is saying to His church!

Night 37 - Altars

As the evening of worship began last night, we began to collectively cry out for God to have His way.  That's really what UR120 has been about.  Creating an atmosphere of worship so that God is able to rule, reign and have His way!  We began to cry out and pray for revival.  We know that revival can be messy, it shifts things, it changes things....and it shifts us and changes us. 

We ended the night by going forward to the altar and rededicating our altars to the Lord.

An Altar is a place that is designed or separated for worship unto God; it's a place of fellowship with God.  It is also a place where praises and prayers are rendered unto God. 

 An Altar symbolizes holiness and represents the presence of God.
It is also a place of refuge and comfort from the troubles of this world.  An Altar could also be a place where intercession is being made for the well being of others inspired by the Holy Spirit.

Our prayer is that the altar would be a familiar place to us and for the harvest.

Only 3 more nights before the Prophetic Summit!  Make plans to join us if you can!

Nights 33-36 - A Shift!

As we have continued nightly worship, the glory is increasing.  There has been a shift in the atmosphere.  We are getting insight, revelation, confirmations and hearing the sound of heaven.

People who walk into this place, can sense that the Oasis is a house of Bethel.  There is an open heaven and this is a place where the angels and descend.  

There have been healings, salvations and breakthroughs.  Prayer has been lifted up for Ohio, for the harvest, for awakening and revival.  Each night has been a powerful time in His presence.  

We are in the final week before the Summit.  We will continue worshipping and creating an upper room atmosphere for His glory each night this week.  Then, this Frinday, national prophets will be coming and speaking over the state of Ohio and this region.  (Barbara Yoder, Dutch Sheets, Chuck Pierce (via video) and Jane Hamon).

After 40 nights of worship, prayer and fasting, we are expecting an awesome night!  Last year was incredible, but we know that we go from glory to glory!  Come join us and hear what God is saying to Ohio!

Night 32 - Unquenchable Worship & A Holy Vision!

^{Habakuk 3:17-18}

Though the cherry trees don't blossom
   and the strawberries don't ripen,
Though the apples are worm-eaten
   and the wheat fields stunted,
Though the sheep pens are sheepless
   and the cattle barns empty,
I'm singing joyful praise to God.
   I'm turning cartwheels of joy to my Savior God.
Counting on God's Rule to prevail,
   I take heart and gain strength.
I run like a deer.
   I feel like I'm king of the mountain! 

These are the verses that got us started last night.  Pastor Carol shared this passage and how it's easy to get caught up in the day and sometimes hard to shake it off and be ready to worship.  What she didn't know was that those were the exact verses the Holy Spirit had prompted me to share, so we knew God was speaking!

We are all faced with a choice when it comes to worship.  We can either fix our eyes on our circumstance, whether good or bad.  Or we can fix our eyes on God.  

We are determined to be unquenchable worshippers.  Those who refuse to be discouraged or distracted in our desire to glorify God.  We sang, we praised and we exalted His Name.

Later in the evening, we were drawn to Exodus 34, which speaks of Moses and his desire to see God's glory.  

2 Corinthians 2:18 tells us that we who with unveiled faces all reflect the Lord's glory are being transformed into His likeness with ever increasing glory which comes from the Lord, who is the spirit.

That's our desire!  Every time we draw near to Him and His glory shines on us, we look more and more like Him.

As we continued worshipping, a vision was given to Apostle Tim Sheets.  He was taken into the throneroom and Jesus stood and said, "Come here, I want to show you the new robes."  In the vision, he saw a large pile of robes that had been discarded.  He then went to a room that had the most beautiful robes he had ever seen.  They were a gorgeous purple color and were trimmed around the collar in a beautiful blue.  There was a line of people as far as he could see of ones waiting to receive their new robe.  The Lord gave the revelation that the purple color represented a new King's anointing and the blue color represented that this new anointing would be under the headship of the Holy Spirit.

We then prayed that we would step into this new anointing.  A prevailing theme throughout UR120 has been that God is doing something new and He's looking for those who will discard the old garments and put on the new.

We're ready God!  You are doing a new thing and we want to be part of it!  All glory and honor be unto You!

Night 31 - A night of prayer

I Corinthians 2:9

No one's ever seen or heard anything like this,
   Never so much as imagined anything quite like it—
   What God has arranged for those who love him.
But you've seen and heard it because God by his Spirit has brought it all out into the open before you. 

 
Even in last nights Ice Storm, people still gathered to continue building an upper room for His glory.  Some came to the Oasis early to pray and seek God.  Countless others prayed at home.  

 

We are believing I Corinthians 2:9 - No eye has seen and no ear has heard the things that God has in store.  Show us Your glory Lord! 

Night 30 - Lover of our soul

We had such a refreshing time in the presence of God last night.  It's so good to be in His presence!

The main focus of last night was declaring that Jesus is the lover of our souls.  He heals the broken-hearted and fills the emptiness of people's souls.  

A great reminder was given last night that it doesn't matter what you have done, His grace is enough.  No one is worthy on our own, but we are all redeemed by His blood.  Thank You,Lord, for Your blood that covers our every sin!

"Jesus, Lover of my soul

Jesus, I will never let You go."

Another great word was given over us last night from Jeremiah:

1:12  Then the LORD said to me, "You have seen well, for ^(A)I am watching over My word to perform it." 

and

29:11 For I know the plans I have for you,” says the Lord. “They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope. 

Thank you God for your faithfulness...

for your love, mercy and grace! 

Night 29 - Trent Cory/ He's the God of the Impossible!

We had another incredible night of worship with Trent and Keisha Cory last night!  Such passionate, exuberant Spirit-led worship leaders!

The evening began to take its focus as we began singing,

"Nothing is impossible for You

Nothing is impossible

Nothing is impossible for You 

You hold my world in Your hands."

He is the God of the impossible.  Luke 11:37 says.

"Nothing is impossible with God!"

We gave God all of our "impossibles" last night.  For some it was sickness & disease, for others financial problems, and for some relationship issues.  But we know that He is the way maker - when it seems there is no way, God makes a way!

Many of the musicians prophecied on their instruments last night.  As people came to the altar area for prayer, the saxaphonist came down and played prophetically over them.  Very powerful.  We're expecting to hear some awesome reports of what God is doing in people's lives!

We prayed over our region...for the fatherless...for the hopeless...for this generation.  Worship leads us to hearing the heart of Almighty God and oh how His heart aches for those who are hurting.  

Break our heart for what breaks Yours God.  Let us not be only hearers, but doers of Your Word.  May we not only worship You by singing and praying, but also by doing!  By being Your hands and feet.  By shining a light in the darkness.

"To worship You I live

To worship You I live

I live to worship You."

 

Night 28 - Heavenly Perspective

Worship gives us a heavenly perspective.  It causes us to look upward to the One who holds our world in His hands.  The very God who created us and wrote our destiny.  

Worship allows us to see God for who he really is.  To exalt His Name and lift Him high.  Worship draws us into His presence and lets us know His heart.

To worship God is to say "I want more of You Lord and less of me..."  It gives us ears to hear His voice and eyes to see His ways.  

So much happens as we worship our King!  It's getting exciting as we go into our 5th week of UR120, join us when you can!

Ephesians 5:19 (The Message)

Sing songs from your heart to Christ. Sing praises over everything, any excuse for a song to God the Father in the name of our Master, Jesus Christ. 

Night 27 - He's a Holy and Mighty God!

We began UR120 yesterday crying out to God for the situation in Egypt.  We prayed for God's will to be done.  We prayed for the peace and protection of the persecuted Christians.  We prayed for a generation that's rising for God in that land.  Lord Have mercy!

We began to sing 

"Your Kingdom Come, Your will be done!  

On earth as it is in heaven!"

Many prayers went up last night for God's will and purpose.  Prayers for the harvest.  We had an awesome time of intercession.

We also declared through song:

"This is the anthem of our generation

Here we are Lord

Shake our nation

All we need is Your love 

You captivate us.

I am royalty, I have destiny

I have been set free

I'm gonna shake history!"

We decreed that He is a Holy and Mighty God.  We pressed into His presence through worship and prayer.

Isaiah 9:6 

And he will be called:
   Wonderful Counselor,^[a] Mighty God,
      Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.

Isaiah 6:3

“Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of Heaven’s Armies!
      The whole earth is filled with his glory!”

We have made the decision to continue pressing into His presence night after night.  He alone is worthy of worship and praise! 

Night 26 - Yes God!

Last night, we declared Yes to our God!  Saying yes to God is deciding to be willing to whatever He wants.  We want to pursue the desires of His heart.

That's really what life is all about.  Purposely Pursuing God.  His heart...His ways...His purpose.  In the process of pursuing Him, He pursues us and reveals our destiny.

"You are all over
You are around
You are inside
This is life, this is life

I come in empty, and I leave filled
Bring my sickness and I leave healed
Broken-hearted, you mend every piece
Come in empty, and I leave free"

This is our prayer God: 

"Deep within my heart I'm crying out for you, 

Wrap your arms around this heart of mine

Your love is higher than a mountain, 

Your grace is deeper than the sea, 

Your mercy never ceases to amaze me, 

Day after day your love for me remains. "

Such a sweet time in His presence.  

Let our life be worship unto You Lord!

Night 25 - Favor!

We had another wonderful time of worship at UR120 last night.  We began the evening declaring our freedom in God.  

 

John 8 

Whom the Son sets free is free indeed!

The Message:   

So if the Son sets you free, 

you are free through and through!

We spent some time dancing and praising our mighty King!

Psalm 149
    Hallelujah! Sing to God a brand-new song,
      praise him in the company of all who love him.
   Let all Israel celebrate their Sovereign Creator,
      Zion's children exult in their King.
   Let them praise his name in dance;
      strike up the band and make great music!
   And why? Because God delights in his people,
      festoons plain folk with salvation garlands!

 ^5-9 Let true lovers break out in praise,
      sing out from wherever they're sitting,
   Shout the high praises of God,
      brandish their swords in the wild sword-dance—

A word was given about the favor of God.  Follow His Word and believe and you will see His favor on your life.  Now, is the time for the favor of the Lord.  NO MORE DELAY!

Proverbs 16:15 In the light of the King's face is life and His favor is like a cloud of the latter rain.

Psalm 102:13 You will arise and have mercy on Zion; for the time to favor her, Yes, the set time, has come.

Duet. 33:23  And of Naphtali he said "O Naphtali, satisfied with favor, and full of the blessing of the Lord, possess the west and the south.

Message Bible "Naphtali brims with blessings, spills over with blessings, as he takes possession of the sea and southland."

Psalm 5:12 For thou, Lord, wilt bless the righteous; with favor wilt thou compass him as with a shield.

We prayed and cried out for the favor of God and declared His blessings over our lives, our church and this region.

God is doing amazing things during this time we've set aside to seek Him.  Through fasting, worship and prayer, we are hearing God's voice and seeing Him move in mighty ways.  Divine connections are being made - the kind where you say, "Only God!"  

It is such an exciting time!

We ended the evening by declaring and singing the Name of Jesus!

"Jesus, the most beautiful name I know

You're the exalted One

Jesus, You have the power alone

You lift the lonely one, Jesus

Be exalted, be exalted, be exalted

Higher and higher!"

 

Night 24 - Stamping Out Injustice!

"Open up the doors and let the music play, 

Let the streets resound with singing

Songs that bring Your hope, 

Songs that bring Your joy, 

Dancers who dance upon Injustice

Fling wide ye heavenly gates, 

Prepare the way of the Risen Lord"

This word was shared last night: 

Isaiah 66:1

Heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool.

Psalm 110:1

The Lord said to my Lord, "Sit in the place of honor at my right hand until I humble your enemies, making them a footstool under your feet.

The Message Bible:

"The word of God to my Lord: Sit along side me here on my throne until I make your enemies a stool for your feet".

Foot (regel) - a foot as used in walking, a step
Stool (hadom) - from an unused root meaning "to stamp upon; a footstool.
Stamp - to bring down the foot forcibly. 

Psalm 85:13

Righteousness goes before him and prepares the way for his steps.

After these verses were given, Pastor Tim shared about "Indian Filing" where Indians used to put the Indian with the biggest foot in front, and then all the other Indians followed in the same footprints, and were able to ambush the enemy with an army! 

We then prayed and stamped out injustice!

We ended the evening by singing,  

"Here We Are - we're available". 

It was a great night - such a sweet spirit...it's so good to be in His presence!

Night 23 & Another Perspective on UR120:)!

(This post was written by Pastor Paul "Woodie" Fultz, who is also one of the worship leaders for UR120)


If you missed Sunday night's UR120 event with Eddie James, you missed a great opportunity to take part in something very special, and to receive personal deliverance and ministry. Although Eddie's music was very powerful, what was more powerful were the testimonies of the more than 50 kids who travel with him, many of whom were just rescued, delivered, and set free from life on the streets. 

My heart was moved as several of the kids shared their stories and prayed for those who were present, and for the state of Ohio. I cried as I thought of the many young adults and teens that have been lost over the last several years. My spirit exploded in a new level of intercession as I called out the names of many of those young people with renewed faith and commitment to the task of generational ministry.

Before the night was over, more than 500 people raised their hands for ministry- almost one third of the audience of mostly young people. If you were not able to be there, I encourage you to make every effort to make it down there this week. 

We are past the halfway point in our forty days, and nearly one quarter of the way through the 120 Upper Room assignment. Things are breaking over our region and all over Ohio. Every night of worship just gets more intense. The cry of God's heart to bring the fire of heaven and the glory of God is becoming more bold through His people and beginning to spread all over the state.

Awakening and Reformation are coming to Ohio. Don't miss your opportunity for personal freedom as God's glory comes down!

As Pastor Fultz stated, every night the worship becomes more intense and last night was no exception.  We declared His glory and greatness and called out His Name!

We began the evening by singing "Let it Rise!"  Anyone who comes to engage in worship is beginning to notice that the atmosphere is changing.  His glory is filling the place and it's filling us!


"Glory to You in the highest place,
Call out His Name - Jesus,
Shout out His Name - Jesus!"

We ended the evening by singing our own song to Jesus.  By making our own melodies and sounds.  It was powerful...Glorious...Sweet. His presence is an awesome thing!

Night 22 - Eddie James/Freedom!

What a night last night was!  Eddie James and his crew were ON FIRE!  The house was full and everyone was pumped, ready to worship and praise our God!  If you've never experienced worship with Eddie, you are missing out on something incredible.  He is full of passion and is an anointed man of God.  He brought his "kids" with him (51!) and their lives have been so radically, completely changed, that passion just exudes from them!

Several of them shared their testimonies and then prayed powerful prayers to break bondage and sin over people's lives.  Many people were set free last night and freedom was loosed! 

"No more shackles, no more chains

No more bondage, I am free

Hallelujah!"

Night 21 - Prophetic word over Ohio

We are definitely going from glory to glory during our UR120 worship nights.  The presence of the Lord is so tangible.  He is up to something big and the anticipation and expectancy in our hearts is building!

Last night this prophetic word was declared:

"It all starts with the heart"... I keep hearing that phrase over and over again. While praying tonight at church during our 40 nights of worship, while specifically praying for revival to take place, I kept hearing the Lord say " It all starts with the heart." At first I understood it to mean my own heart.  Revival must begin in my own heart before it will spread to anyone around me. The embers of my heart must begin to burn passionately with the fire of God before it can set anyone else's heart ablaze.  God again said, "It all starts with the heart." I somehow new my own heart was not entirely what God was referring to.  There was more He wanted me to see and understand.

I then saw Ohio begin to burn like molten lava, a deep red at first with just hints of orange. As worship continued to take place around our state, the fire grew hotter and brighter, turning from red to orange and then to a bright orangish-yellow in color. God said again, "It all starts with the heart." And then I saw the fire now in Ohio begin to spill out onto Indiana, and Kentucky, and Illinois, and Tennessee, and all the other states surrounding Ohio.  The fire continued to spread, moving like hot lava until it covered the entire nation. And God said again, "It all begins with the heart. Ohio is the heart of it all." I then thought of how Ohio's tourism slogan "Ohio, the heart of it all" used to be written on the road signs coming into and leaving our state. And God said again, "It all starts with the heart."

The heart is one of the most vital organs in the body. It never rests. As long as the heart is functioning properly, the rest of the body receives the blood (the source of life) that it needs to function properly. If the heart is damaged and can no longer function efficiently, the rest of the body suffers and cannot function properly as it was intended to. If Ohio, the heart of this nation, does not function as we were created to, then the rest of the body, the nation, will suffer and will not be able to function as God intended it to be.

"It all starts with the heart."
 
Songs came forth out of this word:

"All consuming fire, set our hearts ablaze!"

"Can't contain it, Can't hide it,

Won't fight it

My heart burns for You!"

Jeremiah 20:9
  His word burns in my heart like a fire.

Consume us God!
 

Night 20 - More!

The cry of our hearts last night was "Don't ever let us feel satisfied with what we have in You Lord.  We always desire more!"  More of Him and less of us.  Too much is not enough!

Psalm 42

 ¹ As the deer pants for streams of water,
   so my soul pants for you, my God.
² My soul thirsts for God, for the living God.
   When can I go and meet with God?  

⁷ Deep calls to deep
   in the roar of your waterfalls;
all your waves and breakers
   have swept over me.

 ⁸ By day the LORD directs his love,
   at night his song is with me—
   a prayer to the God of my life. 

Put your hope in God,
   for I will yet praise him,
   my Savior and my God. 

Worship and intercession went forth as we prayed for God to not let us go until He's blessed us, our state and our nation.  We declared that we will stand and not give up!

A refrain that we sang again and again was:

"My strength in life is I am Yours!

My soul delights because I am Yours!"

We are halfway through the first 40 days and our hearts thirst for more and more and more of God!  More love, more power, more glory!  Pour it out God!

Night 19 - A Holy Hush...

What an awesome presence of the Lord last night in our worship!There was a "holy hush" where we just sat in complete silence after singing "How Great Is Our God".   We can be comfortable in the silence of our King.  His love is extravagant and His friendship is intimate.

"How Great is our God,

Sing with me how great is our God,

And all will see how great, how great is our God!

 He's the Name above all Names

And He's worthy of all praise

My heart will sing how great is our God!"

There is truly no one like our God.  He is in fact, awesome:)!

"There is none like You, No one else can love me like you do, 

I could search the whole world and find, 

there is none like You". 

It was a great night in His presence.  Psalm 84:10 says:

"Better is one day in your courts than a thousand elsewhere." 

The UR120 nights of worship refresh us, revive us, renew us and call us to a cause greater than ourselves.  

For His Kingdom!  For His cause!  For His glory!

Night 18 - The Weight of His Glory

It was another beautiful night in His presence.  The prophetic song of the Lord last night was:

"I’m God Almighty, King of Glory

Lift your eyes declare I’m holy

There’s no other way besides me

I Am. I Am.

You’ve asked for eyes to see my face.

You’ve asked for ears to hear my voice.

You’ve cried out for my weight of glory.

I Am. I Am.

Mighty in battle.  Mighty to save.

Reigning in victory.  Call out My Name.

Coming with fire.  Sending my rain.

Winds of my spirit blowing again.

This next great awakening won’t be just one thing.

For in the weight of my glory dwells everything.

It’s fire.  It’s healing.  Revival and raining.

It’s blowing.  It’s moving.  And it’s all consuming."

There was also an awesome word of encouragement and exhortation given:

 Isaiah 61:7

Because you got a double dose of trouble
   and more than your share of contempt,
Your inheritance in the land will be doubled
   and your joy go on forever.  

Yes God, we believe and receive that awesome promise!

Hosea 2:15 

 I will return her vineyards to her
      and transform the Valley of Trouble^[a] into a gateway of hope.  

As believers, we can rest assured that He is making all things new!  He gives us beautiful exchanges for troublesome times.  He turns our times of despair into great hope.  Thank You Jesus!! 

Night 17 - God's Glory Has Our Back!

^{Isaiah 58: 6-9}

⁶ “Is not this the kind of fasting I have chosen:
to loose the chains of injustice
   and untie the cords of the yoke,
to set the oppressed free
   and break every yoke?
⁷ Is it not to share your food with the hungry
   and to provide the poor wanderer with shelter—
when you see the naked, to clothe them,
   and not to turn away from your own flesh and blood?
⁸ Then your light will break forth like the dawn,
   and your healing will quickly appear;
then your righteousness^[a] will go before you,
   and the glory of the LORD will be your rear guard.
⁹ Then you will call, and the LORD will answer;
   you will cry for help, and he will say: Here am I. 

We are headed into our 18th day of fasting and worshipping God.  We're not fasting for our glory, we're fasting for the glory of the Lord.  God says if we join Him in this kind of fast, He will be our rear guard.

God's got our back!  When the Body of Christ, the Church, moves forward, the glory of the Lord follows them to protect them all from the enemy who pursues.

So, get in the glory and let the Lord be your rearguard!

How do we get in the glory?

Psalm 34:3, 7 

O magnify the LORD with me, and let us exalt his name together. ... (then) ... ⁷ God's angel sets up a circle
   of protection around us while we pray.

This is what we are doing through UR120 and this is just one of the benefits of praising His Name!

Night 16 - He's a Holy King!

We enjoyed another powerful time in His presence last night.  We were led by a new group of passionate worship leaders last night.  It is still incredible and amazing to see the body of Christ come together night after night to exalt His Name.  It doesn't matter if we know one another personally or not, we all serve the same God.  The power of unity is an awesome thing!

We spent a good amount of time simply being in His presence (as if there's anything simple about that!).  We sang and declared our love for Him and we lifted our voices with the angels gathered around His throne singing:

Holy, Holy Lord God Almighty!

We also declared that He alone is King of Kings 

and our victory is in Him!

"Hallelujah, You have won the victory

Hallelujah, You have won it all for me"

"Death could not hold You down

You are the risen King

Seated in Majesty

You are the risen King"

Aren't you glad we serve a living King?  One who walks with us, talks with us and calls us His friend. And the One who loves us with His whole being.  

"Your love never fails, never gives up, never runs out on me. Your love remains." 

UR120 continues this week as we gather to build an atmosphere of glory to change us, change Ohio, and ultimately, change a nation.  

 Lord, Your Kingdom Come!  Your will be done!

Night 15 - Salvations & Fire!

We had an intense, exciting, passionate time of worship last night led by Jeremy Burk.  The evening began by declaring the Joy of the Lord!  God exchanges our garments of heaviness for garments of praise.  Praise erupted in the house last night and we spent time dancing and singing in the Joy God has given us.

We have been crying out for the fire of God, as I have written about in previous posts.  Last night as people were driving to UR120, there were pictures taken of what appeared to be fire and smoke over our church.  The pictures were shown in our service last night and then we began to cry out for Holy Fire!

In the midst of our worship time, many young people came to the front to worship.  No altar call was given, but they were drawn to the presence of our King.  There were at least 5 salvations last night - Praise God!

We ended the night by singing that we won't drink watered down wine anymore.  Give us the real thing Jesus!

Night 14 - His Voice

Revelation 4:1-6

 Then I looked, and, oh!—a door open into Heaven. The trumpet-voice, the first voice in my vision, called out, "Ascend and enter. I'll show you what happens next."  I was caught up at once in deep worship and, oh!—a Throne set in Heaven with One Seated on the Throne, suffused in gem hues of amber and flame 

with a nimbus of emerald.

One of the purposes of worship is allowing time for God to speak to us.  Our heart's desire is ascend to Him through worship, to be in His very presence.  We have to make a conscious effort to set aside distractions and yield ourselves completely to Him.  

Oh to hear His voice!

We sang these words last night: 

"I just want to come before Your throne, 

Until it's only You and You alone, 

I just want to sit at Your feet, 

and Listen to You as You speak

Let that be enough, Oh that is enough for me". 

"So many things pulling me, 

So many dreams I want to see, But I just want to sit at Your feet, and listen to You as You speak"....
"let that be enough, Oh that is enough for me".

We want to live for you God!  In everything that we say.  In everything that we do.  We want our lives to glorify You! 

The declaration over God's people was : 

"Shake apathy off of your people. 

Lord we go from glory to glory. Let the Lion King roar!".  

Psalm 29: 1-9

 Honor the Lord, you heavenly beings;
      honor the Lord for his glory and strength.
  Honor the Lord for the glory of his name.
      Worship the Lord in the splendor of his holiness.

  The voice of the Lord echoes above the sea.
      The God of glory thunders.
      The Lord thunders over the mighty sea.
  The voice of the Lord is powerful;
      the voice of the Lord is majestic.
 The voice of the Lord splits the mighty cedars;
      the Lord shatters the cedars of Lebanon.
  He makes Lebanon’s mountains skip like a calf;
      he makes Mount Hermon leap like a young wild ox.
  The voice of the Lord strikes
      with bolts of lightning.
 The voice of the Lord makes the barren wilderness quake;
      the Lord shakes the wilderness of Kadesh.
  The voice of the Lord twists mighty oaks
      and strips the forests bare.
   In his Temple everyone shouts, “Glory!”

We want to hear Your voice God!

Night 13 - Strong Tower!

There have been so many good reports from people who have been coming to UR120.  Many are getting healed, set free and refreshed in His presence.  People are getting saved and others have rededicated their lives to the Lord.   Passionate prayer has gone up for the harvest, for revival, for an outpouring of the Holy Spirit.  And this is only the beginning!

Last night, we gathered and pursued His presence and glory.  We declared Proverbs 18:10

¹⁰The name of the LORD is a strong tower: the righteous run into it, and is safe. 

He is our strong tower!  We get into His presence and draw strength to go out and fight!  Then we come get refreshed again in the Oasis of His presence and strength.  We don't get from God to keep it to ourselves, we want to give it away.  We desire to be salt and light in every place and situation we find ourselves in.  

We ended the night by dancing in the freedom we have in Him!

Psalm 149

Hallelujah! Sing to God a brand-new song,
      praise him in the company of all who love him.
   Let all Israel celebrate their Sovereign Creator,
      Zion's children exult in their King.
   Let them praise his name in dance;
      strike up the band and make great music!

Night 12 - Your Kingdom Come!

A powerful, beautiful song that we sang last night ended with the words:  

"Thy Kingdom Come

Thy Will be Done

In the Name of Jesus!"

Essentially, we were decreeing for God's will and purpose to be accomplished here on earth, as it is in heaven.  We have been praying nightly for revival to come, not only to Ohio, but to our nation.  We desire and cry out for awakening and reformation.

What is awakening and reformation?

Acts 2: 16-21

"In the Last Days," God says,
   "I will pour out my Spirit
      on every kind of people:
   Your sons will prophesy,
      also your daughters;
   Your young men will see visions,
      your old men dream dreams.
   When the time comes,
      I'll pour out my Spirit
   On those who serve me, men and women both,
      and they'll prophesy.
   I'll set wonders in the sky above
      and signs on the earth below,
   Blood and fire and billowing smoke,
      the sun turning black and the moon blood-red,
   Before the Day of the Lord arrives,
      the Day tremendous and marvelous;
   And whoever calls out for help
      to me, God, will be saved."  

This is what we long for!  This is what we cry out for!  This is why we gather to pray and seek His face. Now is the time to press in,  pursue His presence and go to a greater level in Him.

Lord, pour out your spirit on all people!

Night 11 - Oh How He Loves Us!

^{Romans 8:38}

³⁸ And I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from God’s love. Neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons,^[a] neither our fears for today nor our worries about tomorrow—not even the powers of hell can separate us from God’s love. 

Last night during our worship time, the presence of the love of God was so strong.  We basked in His great love for us!  We also lavished our love upon Him.  He is good and His mercy endures forever!  It was a sweet time in His presence.

We also began to sing and decree that He alone is worthy.  Worthy means:  having worth or excellence; deserving, possessing merit, virtuous. That's our King!

Revelation 5:11-12

 ¹¹ Then I looked again, and I heard the voices of thousands and millions of angels around the throne and of the living beings and the elders. ¹² And they sang in a mighty chorus:

   “Worthy is the Lamb who was slain
      to receive power and riches
   and wisdom and strength
      and honor and glory and blessing.”

We ended the night by declaring that no rock is going to take our place, our lips will praise Him!


Each night continues to be an incredible time of worship.  It is awesome how every night we go a little bit higher, a little bit deeper.  Lord, rend the heavens and come down!

Night 10 - Arise, Church Arise!

Last night was an awesome time of worship and intercession!

"Arise, O Church, Arise. Arise and Be the Bride, 

Rule and reign by His side! "

These words became our prayer last night.   We  prayed and cried out for Revival to be poured out.  Revival in our churches, our cities, our state and this nation!

A prophetic song was sung about hearing God's voice and obeying it.  There is much He will do through you.  This is serious, will you obey Me when I ask? Will you obey Me when I call? Will you not only listen but obey? 

^{Romans 2:13}

¹³ For merely listening to the law doesn’t make us right with God. It is obeying the law that makes us right in his sight. 

  Another cry that went up last night:

"God is a consuming fire.

Come be my only passion.

Your Kingdom come.  

Lord hear us from heaven."

Come, Lord Come!  Rule and reign and have Your way as we worship You!

Night 9 - The River

As we head into our second week of nightly worship, it just keeps getting better and better.  There was a sweet, refreshing and holy presence of God in our midst last night.  

A vision was given during worship of a waterfall flowing in our sanctuary, leading to overflowing waters.  Jesus was dancing in the water and calling His beloved to dance with Him.  

"Dance with me O Lover of my soul,

To the song of all songs"

It was a beautiful, intimate time of 

expressing our adoration to King Jesus.

We ended the night by declaring that 

we are not ashamed to worship our Savior!

"Lord, I'm gonna dance for You
Lord, I'm gonna sing for You
Lord, I'm gonna worship You
I'm not afraid, I'm not ashamed

Nothing's gonna hinder me
Nothing's gonna silence me
Shout it out if you believe
I'm not afraid, I'm not ashamed"

If it's this good on Night 9, can you imagine what Night 40 will be like!?  Lord, let Your river flow!
