The flat wheat field

Sunday afternoon we had a wonderful time with Familiekirken. About sixty people were gathered together to worship God, to listen to his word and to fellowship. John Arve has a gift in making people feel at home and relax in a gathering. Obviously he has a big heart for the people and they feel secure with him. In the same way Gunn Bj�rg is gifted in bringing the people into the presence of God while she is leading them in praise and worship. They need to be very confident in the grace of God upon their lives as they serve God together. They are a unique couple totally sold out to God and committed to serve his purpose in their generation.

During the service God gave me several prophetic visions to share with the church to help them fulfil their calling in God. I will only share one of them here as I have never seen anything like it before:

I saw a large wheat field, but it was not a nice sight. Most of the wheat in the field was flat. Heavy rain and storm had devastated the field. The straws were broken and the heads of wheat were laying flat on the ground in danger of rotting. It was a very sad sight as the whole harvest seemed to be destroyed. However as I looked at the flat wheat field I became aware of something happening. A gentle wind started to blow in the same direction as the straws were laying in the field. It was like the gentle, mild and warm wind was caressing the straws and the heads of wheat drying them after the heavy rain. Then it was like the gentle wind became playful and was blowing on them in circles causing the heads of wheat to carefully rise from the ground. Then the gentle wind was increasing in force and was blowing on the straws in the opposite direction of the straws causing them to stand tall and beautiful with the heads of wheat swaying the gentle but strong wind. I have never heard of any such thing happening in the natural, this was a supernatural intervention of the Lord of the harvest in this area. The Lord showed me that a lot of people had been hardly beaten and broken down by legalistic religiosity in this area and the plentiful harvest was in danger of being destroyed. However the gentle wind of the Spirit is moving among these people and a wonderful work of restoration is taking place. God is going to use his people to bring healing to broken lives and bring the saving power of Jesus Christ to the hurting people of this area.
