Stirring the Water Revelation
NOCO Prayer. 2/5/24
During a time of deep worship at NOCO Prayer, I heard the Lord say:
“I’m Stirring the Waters, again.”
I was led to the story out of John 5 (see Amplified text below)
The following points were highlighted to me:
The Festival was Purim: March 23-24 this year! It’s late this year because it’s Hebrew Calendar Leap Year which adds an additional month 7 years out of the 19 year cycle. It’s also a Gregorian Leap Year, as well, which adds a day.
There were 5 porches or DOORs. 5 is Grace. “Open Doors in 2024” . The Hebrew year 5779 has a door symbol..
Lots of people are waiting for healing, deliverance, and breakthrough! Amen!
An Angel of the Lord comes down in appointed -Kairos-seasons and Stirs the Water!
In Jesus—ALL can be healed! His Anointing is Coming—at long last!
The Holy Spirit will move through Christ’s Servants to Heal & Deliver!
Strength will be restored vs 11. Strength to run our race, serve our purpose!
Because of this incident, Jesus was persecuted and they wanted him killed! Ponder this…
While I was teaching last weekend, I shared from Jim’s Signal post about “cellular memory”. I strongly felt we were to be asking that our “original purpose” (see Genesis 1:2, Psalm 139:11-17 and Romans 8:29, et al) would be Stirred Up so our True Identity is manifested!
Don mentioned as I shared on the KSN Zoom — “Stir up the Gifts” out of Second Timothy 1:6. This scripture interestingly ends with “He has not given you a spirit of fear, but of Power, of Love and of a Sound Mind!”…
John 5. Amplified
1Later on there was a Jewish festival (feast) for which Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
2 Now there is in Jerusalem a pool near the Sheep Gate. This pool in the Hebrew is called Bethesda, having five porches (alcoves, colonnades, doorways).
3 In these lay a great number of sick folk—some blind, some crippled, and some paralyzed (shriveled up)—[a]waiting for the bubbling up of the water.
4 For an angel of the Lord went down at appointed seasons into the pool and moved and stirred up the water; whoever then first, after the stirring up of the water, stepped in was cured of whatever disease with which he was afflicted.
5 There was a certain man there who had suffered with a deep-seated and lingering disorder for thirty-eight years.
6 When Jesus noticed him lying there [helpless], knowing that he had already been a long time in that condition, He said to him, Do you want to become well? [Are you really in earnest about getting well?]
7 The invalid answered, Sir, I have nobody when the water is moving to put me into the pool; but while I am trying to come [into it] myself, somebody else steps down ahead of me.
8 Jesus said to him, Get up! Pick up your bed (sleeping pad) and walk!
9 Instantly the man became well and recovered his strength and picked up his bed and walked. But that happened on the Sabbath.
10 So the Jews kept saying to the man who had been healed, It is the Sabbath, and you have no right to pick up your bed [it is not lawful].
11 He answered them, The [b]Man Who healed me and gave me back my strength, He Himself said to me, Pick up your bed and walk!
12 They asked him, Who is the Man Who told you, Pick up your bed and walk?
13 Now the invalid who had been healed did not know who it was, for Jesus had quietly gone away [had passed on unnoticed], since there was a crowd in the place.
14 Afterward, when Jesus found him in the temple, He said to him, See, you are well! Stop sinning or something worse may happen to you.
15 The man went away and told the Jews that it was Jesus Who had made him well.
16 For this reason the Jews began to persecute (annoy, torment) Jesus [c]and sought to kill Him, because He was doing these things on the Sabbath.
17 But Jesus answered them, My Father has worked [even] until now, [He has never ceased working; He is still working] and I, too, must be at [divine] work
Stir us up Lord and use us to bring healing to those around us. Amen.
