The King is coming. Do you know Him?

In 2007, I spoke many times about "a new sound." The Lord constantly echoed those words in my spirit, and I repeated them everywhere. As I began to seek God for a prophetic glimpse into 2008, I heard a new sound. I saw people praising and worshipping as I have never seen before. I saw churches full of worshippers.

As praise and worship entered new levels of the Father's realm, I saw more and more people coming into buildings because of this new sound they were hearing. I saw onlookers that stood in awe of this new sound and were being transformed from "idle spectators" into "worshipping participators" by His manifest presence.

Scripture says: "Out of the mouths of babes and suckling have I perfected praise" Matthew 21:16. I heard someone say about this Scripture, "Praise is not perfected when it leaves our mouth; it's perfected when it enters His ears--because He has perfected it."

As part of the prophetic insight into 2008, I hear a new sound coming forth from the Body of Christ. I see key people that God has set into place to usher in this new sound, unrehearsed, and straight from the Spirit's worship. Musical "talent" is going to change (and already has in many) and alter from the normal to a supernatural and never heard of before--expression of praise and worship. This is a divine exchange of passion and love "to" God and "from" God.

Many that are already in musical positions will rise higher in the Spirit, and many that have a deep call and passion, but haven't had an open door, will begin to see doors open as they worship in Spirit and in truth. Those that God has placed into musical positions will begin to have expressive ideas and a renewing of the mind. Pre-written lyrics will begin to fade as their souls and inner spirits have longed for so much more. A divine exchange of passion will come forth from musicians' lips and instruments and will lead worshippers to the Father's throne as they have never seen yet, but only imagined and waited so long for.

Those that have longed to lead worshippers to the Father and have felt the burn of the call and destiny flickering in their hearts--will see doors open. They will hear sounds they can't get out of their spirits and minds. They will begin to see worshippers of God pulled to them--so that they may lead. These are the people that have a passion to lead others to God through praise and worship, but never knew how or where to start. You have thoughts like, "All the slots seem full already. Where do I begin? How do I get into this?" Those who constantly feel this unsettled passion will begin to rise up and connect with those whom God has already established and placed into key positions to lead His people to Him through perfected praise and worship.

Face Lift to Christian Music

The "Christian music industry" and what we call praise and worship is getting a literal face lift. God lifts His face towards us when we worship in spirit and in truth. He has been turning over rocks and looking and listening in kitchens and showers; looking, seeking, watching and listening for those who will worship Him in truth. His desire to find true worship is not only for Him to relax and listen to; He longs for this atmosphere, so He can have what I call "communion"--a communication that is fresh and special for that very moment.

There's a new sound coming in 2008 that is going to lift God's face toward us. It's a sound that no man can make without Him. A perfect sound that He has perfected when it enters His ears. A sound that will cause the masses to take note. A sound that will draw and pull those that hear it--to come and commune with God.

The lost will say, "What happened to church music? All of a sudden it is beyond awesome!" They won't be able to help it. This true worship will draw them because their spirits have been singing it since they were born. They just haven't found anyone to lead them to the source with a divine exchange...until now!

We often say, "Keep your eyes open." This year I say, "Keep your ears open." He that hath ears let him hear....

Still Worshipping,
