“Oil In Abundance”

The classical parable that Jesus told about the five wise virgins and the five foolish virgins was that the five wise virgins had oil in abundance. This truth is so critical to the path that you and I are on today ~ that it literally means life or death, extreme success or extreme failure.
 
The oil is a clear metaphor about your prayer life and how much time you spend in the Spirit praying in other tongues, which is the oil of the Holy Ghost. Every miraculous action of God requires the oil of the Spirit to let everything move in sync and with out any friction. That is why Jesus prayed so long and so hard at the garden of Gethsemane. Because what He was about to accomplish would affect every man, woman, and child in history ~ the redemption of their souls. This was probably the greatest example of how important it is for prayer intercessors to have their lamps well provided with oil.
 
All of you who are under the covering of “A Place To Meet Jesus” are about to receive the greatest financial and physical miracles ~ and find a significant place in Christian history. The enemy is vigilant in trying to snuff your lamp out and put out your faith.
 
This means you can’t even doubt in the thoughts and intents of your heart. You must be rock solid in believing that God will do everything He promised you. This simply means that you must ignore the stormy activities and confusion around you. Go on your dream vacation and constantly pray and fill your lamp with oil.
 
When Jesus, “the Bridegroom,” comes and brings your miracle it will be too late to run to the sellers of oil and ask them to pray for you. To receive the miracle you must have already prayed and filled your lamp with oil. Then, when Jesus brings the miracles, you can immediately go and receive your miracle. Remember, your miracle is going to come quickly ~ and when you least expect it!
 

“To Have No Opinion – Is To Receive Overwhelming Blessings”

One of my daughters was given a dream from the Lord that was very interesting. In this dream she saw her father encountering many different situations where he was saying, “I have no opinion,” “I have no opinion.” And then I came to her and said, “I have no opinion.” In the next dream sequence she was in a van and was wearing a rather short white dress with beautiful flower embroidery. I said to her, “Honey, share the story behind your dress and tell everyone in the van what is going on with you.”

When I said this she was hurt and replied, “Dad, I thought you were not going to have an opinion and keep everything quiet.” In her dream I repented and said, “I’m sorry. I won’t have an opinion.” The dream then entered into a new sequence and she was swimming in very deep waters with the same dress on, when a cobra came and tried to bite her through the dress. But its fangs could not penetrate the material.

Matter-of-fact, the cobra would not bite my daughter any other place but where the dress was ~ and its teeth could not touch her. She was completely protected by the dress. Then a second cobra came and tried to bite her. Though its fangs were very long, they still they could not harm her because the cobra would only bite where the dress was and its fangs could never touch her.

I knew the dream was from the Lord, for that day I encountered many important people. I was forced by my knowledge of the dream to not respond to what they were saying ~ “I had no opinion.” The amazing thing was, by having no opinion I ended up being promoted ~ not only in the conversation, but in the position and relationships concerning the great people I was with.

I would like for you to look at a great classic story in the Bible, about Mary the mother of Jesus, and see her response to the holy angel ~ who just told her that she was going to be pregnant with a child by the Holy Spirit, even though she was only dating Joseph:

“And the angel answered and said unto her, ‘The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God. And, behold, thy cousin Elisabeth, she hath also conceived a son in her old age: and this is the sixth month with her, who was called barren. For with God nothing shall be impossible.’ And Mary said, ‘Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it unto me according to Thy word.’” Notice the absence of opinion that is in her statement: “Be it unto me according to Thy word.”

When Gershom Sikaala showed me this Scripture about Mary, we both looked at each other and said, “We need to quit having opinions.” Instantly my mind went back to conversation that I’d had with Paul Cain when he asked me to visit him in Santa Maria. He placed his hand on my arm and said, “There is a greater reward for you if you don’t ask God why.”

Once again the offer is being made to me in the Spirit ~ to be like the sheep of His pasture. My resounding answer from the depths of my spirit and from the intellectual resources and knowledge of my mind is, “Yes, I trust you Jesus!” The complexities of relationships in the political environment of our government are too much for me to discern and understand.

That’s why I have chosen to have no opinion ~ and just obey the simple voice of the Lord in my tummy. This simplicity of “trust” reaches to everything ~ from my relationship with the workplace, government, school, church, and family. I simply have no opinion ~ but just pray and obey.

It’s amazing how this position can take you through the most troubling storms that have ever been conjured up. Wow, don’t you love the Lord! He is so classy ~ and so prepared to guide us through the difficult places by simply telling us: “Have no opinion and the greatest blessing you have ever conceived will come to you!”

“Your Family’s Dream Vacation, Is God’s Courtship With You For Your Future Lifestyle”

Jesus said these words that were so important for His disciples to hear and experience: “If I bear witness of Myself, My witness is not true.” He knew that God Himself would have to confirm the words that He had given Jesus to give to His disciples first, so that they would know that the Lord’s words were true. I know, as your pastor, that you must individually, as a family, confirm the words that I am saying to you are true ~ so you know that God is going to elevate your lifestyle and experience.
When the profit Vello Vaim gave the word that our church would get a new roof it seemed impossible. But now we worship in a building with a brand-new roof on it. He also told us in his prophecy that the roof would be a sign of God’s physical covering over all of us and everything we are doing.
I believe God will personally show you and your family how complete His covering is. God is going to do this by giving each of you a dream vacation that is His courtship with you, showing you how the rest of your life your family is going to be blessed!
Last Saturday, while I was in intercession, the Lord spoke to me and said, “Tell the church to give an offering for Richard’s family vacation, and just as I blessed the Gazowsky family last year with their vacation that they secretly went on, so I the Lord will bless your family as you enter into their covering and receive your dream vacation. I the Lord am entering into a covenant which represents a courtship of their future lifestyle.”
Those of you who know me should understand how I struggled with this word immensely. But then the Lord reminded me of what He told the prophet Elijah to do with the widow woman:
“And as she was going to fetch it, he called to her, and said, ‘Bring me, I pray thee, a morsel of bread in thine hand.’ And she said, ‘As the Lord thy God liveth, I have not a cake, but an handful of meal in a barrel, and a little oil in a cruse: and, behold, I am gathering two sticks, that I may go in and dress it for me and my son, that we may eat it, and die.’ And Elijah said unto her, ‘Fear not; go and do as thou hast said: but make me thereof a little cake first, and bring it unto me, and after make for thee and for thy son. For thus saith the Lord God of Israel, the barrel of meal shall not waste, neither shall the cruse of oil fail, until the day that the Lord sendeth rain upon the earth.'”
God has shown me that this great blessing is going to come to you and your family on your dream vacation, if you just obey God and bring the appropriate offering to church this Sunday morning. We will have a special offering to receive it.
[Please remember that I cannot bear witness of myself. Only God can bear witness if this is a true word.]

Simple Talk

I still remember the time, 11 years ago, when I was sitting at the side of my bed and the Lord showed me the vision of a simple chip. It had multiple cameras on that one chip. For the next year I shared that vision with numerous engineers, and most of the time they laughed at my simple vision.
 
But then one company understood the vision and as a result, the “Phantom 65 Camera” was built. In 2012 I was at a show with the owner of the camera company, and I tried to explain to him that the chip was actually designed to do a whole lot more than everyone was using it for.
 
But since the company was making so much money on the camera’s ability to shoot 10,000 frames a second, it wasn’t interested in anything else the camera could do. They could not listen to more simple talk because the blessings from the first simple talk rewarded them so greatly that they did not want to receive any more.
 
God’s words are so simple but so powerful: “The words that I speak unto you, they are Spirit, and they are life.” These words that I quoted from Jesus are so simple, yet extremely loaded with extra goodies. It is like Mary Poppins when she says, “A spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down.” Of course the problem that I’m describing is that many times we get addicted to the sugar and we quit taking the medicine. Now I want to tell you something that shows why “God’s ways are not our ways.”
 
When God speaks a word to you, His word is “simple talk.” By this I mean it is layered with all kinds of help in it. This, however, is found in the spirit of the word that goes beyond the actual definition. It actually goes into the thought and the intent of the word itself. To understand this complicated truth we must look at it like a little child.
 
When a father tells his son, “Jump! Trust me I’ll catch you,” the son does not calculate the falling velocity or the force of impact. Instead, all questions are erased and replaced by his father’s simple words: “Trust me.”
 
So it is with the simple words that God gives you every day. When you follow His simple words, every flavor of truth goes into your life and body, and you become younger, happier, and more joyful every day through your obedience.
 
This truth works on a grand scale. The prophet Paul Cain spoke to George Bush senior and said, “Pull out of Iraq and stop the attack.” The dad listened to these “simple words.” But years later, when the son was preparing to attack Iraq, the same prophet told him, “Don’t do it.”
 
Though the prophetic word was simple, its implications were immense, and in the upcoming months we will see if it entirely removes the Bush family’s influence from the politics of America. I know I said a lot in that last statement, so please pray about it and discern what you see in the Spirit. I believe this exercise will show you personally how far the simple talk of God goes.
 
Now back to the subject of the Phantom 65 camera. As I told you, the chip can go much further. A year ago I filed a patent on its ability to change filming forever. As of yet I haven’t met with someone about this new concept being so simple yet so true.
 
But the concept is hard to see because, as C.S. Lewis says in his book Chronicles of Narnia, “it is a deeper magic.” So is the simple answer to receiving God’s super simple truth, and accepting all the layers of help that He works in you personally through your obedience.

“The Glorious Bride”

 By Richard Gazowsky
 
God did not allow King David, a mighty warrior, to build His temple. This was because God called David a man of war. The same application of truth applies to us today. We are the bride of Christ ~ and she is to be presented before Christ without spot or wrinkle. Therefore, our hands cannot be stained with the blood of battle.
 
Two weeks ago the Lord told me to pray for the angels of God to remove “activists” ~ people who are offensively fighting problems when they should’t be. God’s holy army is ready to remove the tares that have been planted among good wheat. God’s holy angelic army can intricately remove evil spirits that are affecting people. But sometimes people may be so badly infected that eventually the physical person has to be removed. God doesn’t want to damage the good wheat. He wants prayer warriors all over America releasing angelic power! You and I were never supposed to accomplish removing activist tares; the angels of God war on our behalf. This is a clear instruction in the book of Matthew given to us by Jesus: “The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels.”  
 
The apostle Paul explained the reason for our inactivity is so we can remain pure. Paul said, “For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called: But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty; and base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are: that no flesh should glory in His presence.” 
 
If you claim that your organizational skills and influence over people caused some great religious benefit to happen to the church or nation, than you are disqualified from the purity the Lord is looking for in His bride. It all happens through Christ. God has shown me how simple and childlike I must be. I am completely dependent upon His power, His activity, and the angelic armies of God to defend everything that God said He was going to do. It has gotten to the point that the prophet Paul Cain told me, “Richard, there is great reward when you quit trying to ask God why. Just simply obey.”
 
I am learning to shut my reasoning mind down and simply obey Him with childlike faith. At this point the Spirit then warns me, incredibly accurately, when negative attacks are about to happen ~ and how I can avoid them completely. It totally amazes me how God is protective over His children, lest there would even be the chance they might “dash their foot against a stone.” Such love I had never known until recently, and it’s wonderful! It’s Disneyland, and I feel we’re ready to have the dream castle experience of roalty in His reign ~ the glorious bride without spot or wrinkle!

America Will No Longer Be Lukewarm

When I wake up at dawn and watch the beautiful display of the golden sunrise, there’s one thing I can’t stand ~ and that is lukewarm coffee when I start the day. When that coffee or tea is steaming hot, it says to me more than what appears on the surface. When it’s freshly brewed, its smell brings back the fragrant memories of the oolong  tea fields in the hills of Taiwan; or the coffee fields of Costa Rica. Seen scientifically as an adult it means I’m going to see an “event horizon,” but as a giggling child it’s “Christmas every day!”
 
What we all love about God is that He also hates lukewarmness: “I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot. So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.” If you read further in the book of Revelation, you can see that it applies to our country right now: “Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked.”
 
America has spent money like it is rich, and does not see that it is $21 trillion in debt ~ and is blind, poor, and naked. But the amazing thing is, that the answer for America is to “go for the gold” ~ a vision of greatness the changes us ~ and not more lukewarmness.
 
The current leadership is “lukewarm,” because for the last few number of years they have done little to fix America’s problems. This spirit of compromise of inactivity has troubled Americans. But the Lord gave us the solution for this generation when He said, “I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see.”
 
I pray, in the name of Jesus, that “your eyes are opened and you can now see.” Remember, because the Lord likes it hot, He wants you to be a winner, He wants you to have the best! Now is not the time to pray lukewarm prayers or believe God for safe, comfortable, predictable and casually-expected visions. Go for gold! I’m believing God for $60 million just to remodel our church, and $2 billion to begin our movie industry vision, and Treasure Island in the San Francisco Bay to become a major theme park! To the average man all this may look impossible, but with God all things are possible!
 
The Lord told me on January 20, 2017, that the next president of the United States will declare, “America is a Christian nation!” Now that’s a steaming hot cup of coffee in the morning ~ as we watch the greatest “event horizon” unfold!
 

“Angels In Warfare, As Christians Drink Tea Resting”

Over the last three weeks of my prayer and intercession, God led me to the mountaintops around San Francisco, California. The Lord showed me numerous visions of rows and rows of angels in full military armor ready to fight. I could see the strain and intensity upon their faces.
But for some reason, though they were prepared for battle, no engagement was happening! At first, seeing such a massive army, I was just inspired by the incredible and awesome view, and felt humbled that I was even able to see such a force so mightily prepared.
As the weeks of intercession continued, the vision grew into more clarity. I saw that these huge massive forces were not only in our local area, but all over the State of California. As matter of fact, as the vision increased daily, they even covered the mountains of America! I suddenly realized that many Scriptural truths that have never been seen by the Christian church in America were coming to complete fulfillment at once.
Jesus clearly taught us, in the parable concerning the sowers, not try to remove the tares that were sown among the wheat, lest you pull out some good wheat. Instead, we must wait for harvest time, when the angels of God will separate the good wheat from the tares, and thereby we lose no good wheat.
I think you are getting the picture (or maybe I should say the masterpiece) of completion and perfection. The apostle Paul encouraged us to rest from our own labors and trust that God will complete the task that is laid before us. Now that the Scripture is ready to be fulfilled, we are in entering into the Last Day’s harvest time. It’s time for you and I to rest, grab a spot of tea, let the angels pull out their swords and sickles, and begin to do the warfare they have waited thousands and thousands of years to do!
What an incredible time to be alive! I thank the Lord I am at the prime years of my life and that I am about to see the miracles of God occur in every area of government, church, family, and employment. God’s holy army is ready to remove all of the “activists.” I know when some up you hear this word you might not understand, but in actuality this is someone who is active when they shouldn’t be active. Let the angels do the removing, and you rest.
The Lord spoke to me last Friday morning and told me that “activists” is the key word to identify, and they are what must be removed ~ not by us ~ because then we become the problem or the “activist”. This is a job that is so intricate that only God’s holy angelic army can perform this task. We must stand back, rest, and let God do it!
Of course all of this activity, and the removing of the problem, will not happen if there are no intercessors, because the Bible says that the Lord gave dominion over the earth to man ~ and not to angels. So, for the angels to war on our behalf, they must have permission from intercessors to act.  Remember that the Bible says, “When your obedience is fulfilled, then you can revenge the children of disobedience.”
Angels are trained to obey the results of our prayer requests made to Jesus, because He is the door and the way. That is why we never pray directly to angels. Jesus hears our request, checks with the Father to see if it’s His perfect will ~ and if it is, He instantly hands the request to the army of angels to war on your behalf and remove the offending “activists”.
Wow! Look out! For soon you will see prayer warriors all over America releasing angelic power to free this country from the sin that has poisoned and oppressed it for years!

“The Best Day America Has Ever Had!”

I’m sticking out my neck, and putting my reputation on the line, by writing this blog. It is Tuesday, 5:30 PM (San Francisco time) April 19, 2016 ~ and the Lord told me tomorrow is going to be the best day America has ever had! It will be Wednesday the 20th.
Usually people wait to see what happens and then tell everybody they knew something good was going to happen. But for some reason I feel like I must be childlike, innocent, vulnerable, and gullible ~ and the Lord will trust me to do exactly what He says. So I write this blog to all of you to make an announcement that Wednesday is going to be the best day that our country has ever had!
In all honesty, I do not know what this all means, as I cannot predict what is going to happen on this day. But by the time this blog goes through my editing team and the different departments that also need to read it, Wednesday will have already passed and we will all realize what happened on that day.
One thing that I do know, is that God’s ways are not like our ways, and oftentimes what the Lord does is beyond our understanding. I believe in the light of this truth God is telling you, and that Wednesday will be protected by the Lord and it will affect our entire nation. What will happen on this day, and its effect, will make America a great country that will lead the world into righteousness.
A side note to this message: Tonight God called me to intercession to pray that the angels of God remove all of the oppressors that are oppressing our nation with unjust laws, rules, and control. This includes oppressors within the school system, colleges, healthcare, governmental regulations on businesses, and the people who have brought oppressive regulations and taxes on every American business and every American who is successful. Jesus set us free!

“One Small Moment Can Change History Forever”

In 1995 the young basketball player Dell Curry played the last game of the season against the Chicago Bulls basketball team, the greatest team of stars the sport had ever created with the power of financial force. Everyone knew that the Chicago Bulls were unstoppable. Money and stardom were behind every move the Bulls made on the court. The game was tied, and Dell, who played for the Hornets, had one chance to break the tie and the Chicago Bull’s winning streak ~ which was already bound for the history books.
That night Dell launched the basketball and made the one basket that won the final game of the season ~ and by most fans it was forgotten.  For the Bulls had won a record-setting 72 games and lost only 9 in the season. With one shot at the end of the game, Dell Curry stopped the Chicago Bulls from winning number 73. Twenty years later this play placed his son in history that will be remembered as long as they remember basketball.
Dell’s son is Stefan Curry, the Warriors’ star basketball player, a member of the team that won 73 games in a season, thus breaking the historical record of the Chicago Bulls ~ which never could’ve been done if it had not been for his father winning that game by one point twenty years earlier. This is not a story of coincidence, but of divine destiny. And it is a lesson that little winnings can lead to great rewards ~ when it’s accompanied by a fulfillment made by the progeny that follow you.
I am personally going through battles day-by-day to keep my mind pure in its faith that God is going to fulfill every single promise that He gave us ~ as a family, as a church, as a city, and as a nation. Today I was tempted to allow my mind to think about the doubts that forever try to invade my thoughts. But instead of yielding, I pushed it aside and started rehearsing the promises that God has given me from the beginning.
This is a daily battle of cleansing my mind from doubt and putting on the mind of Christ. Today especially, it seemed like such a small thing. Maybe just today I should allow myself to doubt. But then I remembered Dell Curry and how he could have become “lukewarm” and not have pressed in to make that last point to win that very important game against the Chicago Bulls.
Dell’s shot might have been a forgotten moment against such a great and formidable record. But he pressed on and won with that final basket ~ shutting them down with a one-point win. Little did he know, but he insured that his son Steph Curry would be forever remembered in history for helping to break the Chicago Bulls’ seemingly insurmountable record.
I know that the disciplining of my mind seems to be a small thing, “But if you are faithful in the little, He’ll make you ruler over much.” This Scripture comes to my mind, “When you’ve done all, stand.” Therefore, take the shot!

“The Mind Of Christ Reaching High Dimensions”

Last week we explored the mind of Christ to help you reach supernatural fulfillment. This week we want to explore how far the mind of Christ can take you. The mind of Christ can actually link you up with angelic help that is so formidable it can literally move entire nations, and turn the hearts of kings as moving the course of the water brook.

The prophet Elijah was aware of this spiritual connection. “And Elisha prayed, and said, ‘Lord, I pray Thee, open his eyes, that he may see.’ And the Lord opened the eyes of the young man; and he saw: and, behold, the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire round about Elisha.” This experience was not unique only to Elijah, but it is something that you and I can experience and use in our own formidable journey in building the kingdom of God.

Of course what I am talking about is very rare, because first of all you must be pure in your thoughts and your intents. You must also be aligned perfectly with the will and purpose of God. And even weightier, you must be willing to take a chance on losing your reputation, of not being accepted by others, and especially not becoming recognized by your peers.

Look right now in the world news at potential leaders that are chosen by God. There is such confusion and noise that it looks like everyone is a failure. But I believe that God has shown me that by January 20, 2017there will emerge leaders that are truly God’s chosen and that will lead the world into the most successful and prosperous time we have ever experienced ~ a time that I see will be the next “Renaissance.”

God is calling all of you to put on the mind of Christ alone, to allow the scaffolding of faith-filled thinking to erect mental structures that support your prayers of faith ~ and release the heavenly hosts to do the impossible works of God in the earth. For those who do not pray, this will seem impossible and will appear to be overwhelmed by insurmountable odds. But for those of us who pray daily, our eyes are open and we can see that there are “more with us” than there is with them.

The hills roundabout you are filled with massive forces of God’s angelic Green Berets ~ with smart bombs so accurate they can blow the sweat off of a mosquito’s nose; with delivery systems so precise that they can turn back the dials of time; and fulfillment procurement so complete that it will rip off the active chains of death, hell, and the grave!
