Notes from Pastor Tim Sheets’ sharing at Oasis Church (June 4, 2023)
There’s a call for us to live with a Kingdom of Christ mindset, that is, being very bold and filled with confidence in Christ.
We must exemplify Christ and live out who we really are as Sons and Daughters of God.
God is now taking many of us through a journey to learn how we live as an heir, and be who God has called us to be - as Sons and Daughters of God.
We have to embrace that Kingdom mindset as we have now moved into a Great Awakening and Reformation era.
The third Great Awakening has now begun. Revival will flow through the land and the world, and nations will be discipled.
The Holy Spirit said, “Don't say it's coming; don't say someday it is going to happen. Say now, now, now”.
He needs the remnant to live in the “Now Faith”.
“I need my remnant, My Ecclesia, to think with “Now Faith”; not just hope that Awakening is going to happen someday. Not just hope that it comes in the future. Declare “now”.
Faith is a “now thing”. Declare faith now to the promise of God, now to the promise of healing.
Bring Awakening and Revival into the “now”.
Hebrews 11:1 (Amplified Bible)
Now faith is the assurance (title deed, confirmation) of things hoped for (divinely guaranteed), and the evidence of things not seen [the conviction of their reality—faith comprehends as fact what cannot be experienced by the physical senses].
We must think as stewards of Awakening and Reformation. We must think and we must act as though we are now in charge and are authorized managers of Awakening and Reformation.
We cannot continue to think the same thoughts we had in the Charismatic Movement era.
For this new era, we must renew our mind according to what the Holy Spirit is now saying to the church.
Isaiah 43:2 (Amplified)
“When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; And through the rivers, they will not overwhelm you. When you walk through fire, you will not be scorched, Nor will the flame burn you.
What is God saying: When you're in rough waters, you will not go down. When you're between a rock and a hard place, it won't be a dead end. Someone has got to go into that wilderness and believe they're not going down.
God doesn't place a call upon us to go down, to lose between a rock and a hard place. He calls those who will receive His power to go in and make their stand; and when they skip to the river, they cross the river. When they come to the fire, they march through it and they are not burned. When the arrow is shot, the shield of faith comes up and stops it. Someone's gotta do it God's way.
Someone's got to believe greater is He that is in me than he that's in the world.
Someone's got to believe if God is before them, who's going to be a success against them - can government, education, media, religion?
The people of God can, through the Might and the Power of the Living God, pioneer new history.
Somebody's gotta believe they are pioneers of history. They're history makers. God is wanting us to pioneer some things so others can follow.
Being pioneers is an identity. It doesn’t mean we're better than anybody.
God wants us to pioneer some things for others to follow.
He wants us to help pioneer the third Great Awakening. We have to think that way now.
Sure, that can at times be difficult.
But God desires revival in the land; and someone's got to run with it.
Prophetic Word:
I'll use you to open new territory.
I'll use you to lead the way for the coming generation now.
I'll use you to change your nation.
I'll use you to build the altars.
I'll use you to build Ecclesia hubs in demon territories.
I'll use you to build bridges.
I'll use you to tear down barriers of walls.
I'll use you to build laws.
I'll use you to build strategies.
I'll use you to build families that have been destroyed.
I'll use you to rebuild walls that have fallen.
I'll use you to establish New Kingdom extensions, New Glory highways.
I will now deal with the oppressors of my people.
I will move swiftly and with jealous aggression with My first responders.
I've heard their cries and will break the hold of the taskmasters’ rule for them.
Though they bow their necks in stubborn resistance, I will lead them with nose rings to their place of destruction like oxen to the slaughter.
I will pull them to stalls of disgrace.
The commanding influence of the oppressor's curse will break from the hearts of my people.
The disheartening crack of the taskmasters’ whip will no longer be heard by my sons and daughters.
They will not carry the burden of their oppressors.
They will not toil for their enemies’ gain. They will not work as slaves of cultural brutality.
They will not glean empty fields because they worship Me. They will own the fields where they glean.
The breaking sound heard by My triumphant remnant will be the cracking sound of their oppressor's authority shattering.
The words of their Pharaoh will be as chaff in the winds as my angels scatter their defiance. Michael and his Chariots of Fire have received their orders. Gabriel has communicated strategies through all Angel Armies. Breakthrough angels are now activated.
Pharaoh will not have the final word. I will have the final word.
Ecclesia, contend in faith as the Lord hardens the heart of our enemies. That's what He did to Pharaoh - He kept hardening his heart. He will harden the hearts of our enemies for devastating defeat.
Set your heart on what the Lord says. Set your minds on “Now Faith”, expecting to live in promised places.
Move forward towards new times and seasons that the Lord has prepared for you.
Move forward into Reformation. Move forward into positions of authority.
Prophecy:
I have ordained for you to move forward into Harvest.
I have ripened it for you to move forward against giant strongholds for I am uprooting, tearing down and planting new just as My prophets have said.
Move forward, pioneers, through dark wilderness. Emblaze the way for families to follow.
Move forward, pioneers, and be pathfinders to milk and honey.
Open trails to new levels of glory. Respond to Me and reset history.
Know, says the Lord, that the next three months will be months of great anointing to bring Reformation rapidly here.
The seeds of faith planted by My people and their decrees of faith will accelerate to fullness, producing the fruit of the seed that was sown and My people will enter new times with lives having been reset.
Prophecy:
Yes, says the Lord, I am resetting lives. I am resetting personal history and regional, national history.
My world changers are now being called to mobilize. My promises are growing to fullness.
Enjoy the times before you in the new era.
Rejoice in the reset I have planned, now unfolding.
Embrace new freedom now. Embrace your new history now. Enjoy the reset of who you really are.
Embrace new history.
He promises the next three months your faith, your decrees, your prayers are going to bring you into a supernatural reset.
Supernaturally, a shift is coming into the mindset of the people of God. A resetting of thinking
to begin to think in ways they have never thought or have drifted from them.
In this new era, things are going to reset for you.
Our reset has already begun. It's coming. It's coming to us spiritually, it's coming to us emotionally, it's coming to our churches.

Excerpts from Apostle George Annadorai’s sharing at the second session of 5782 Golden Gate Gathering
We believe we will be the last generation that will witness the last move of God.
His last great move is to reassemble His Ecclesia before His final return.
Only when his Ecclesia has been reassembled can He bring the nation of Israel to the fullness of her destiny, and restore the nations at large to fulfill their God-given destinies.
This attempt by the Lord to reassemble his Ecclesia in our day and time is taking many forms and shapes in the name of many different movements that are alive today.
There many other movements raised by God, but six movements from different parts of the world are converging. It can also be referred to as six streams coming together, converging together into the river of life.
As in the six days of creation in Genesis 1, there will be six days of recreation of the Ecclesia.
Movement #1: Family. For this purpose, God had raised homecoming from Canada. We are all members of one family (in Christ) and relationships are the key.
Movement #2: Function. For this purpose, God had raised the Apostolic networks from all of Taiwan. The emphasis is that there must be the government of God within the body of Christ.
We need to allow the apostles and the prophets to function within the Body of Christ, just like pastors, teachers and evangelists.
Movement #3: First love. For this purpose God has raised IHOP from the USA to put the emphasis on first love in the heart of every believer where intimacy becomes the primary emphasis.
Movement #4: Faith followership. Many believers simply live out their faith, right where persecution is happening. These are the people who are teaching the rest of us, who belong to the body of Christ, hat real faith is and what real followership is.
Movement #5: Focus. We know that all other things are important but the focus must always be on Israel. Everything must end with Israel, and with Israel to the nations.
Movement #6: First born. Biblically, Israel is the first born. Biologically, Ishmael is the first born.
The Islanders are first-born. In our day and time we are hearing the cry of the first born. The cry of the first born Israel. The cry of the other first-born Ishmael. And they cry on the Islanders.
We are living to witness the convergence of the Isaiah 19 Highway and the Isaiah 62 Highway. This is happening in our day and time. And speaking about the first born, let us not forget the ultimate first born in heaven, Jesus himself. The first born in heaven is hearing the cry of the first born on Earth. And something is about to happen.
The last great move of Jesus is to reassemble his Ecclesia. Ecclesia is not one local church in one country.
It is the body of Christ scattered throughout the earth. They come from every tribe, every tongue, every people, every nation. But together they become the government of God on earth.
Jesus says I will build My Ecclesia. And the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.

Notes from Bishop Bill Hamon's sharing on the Word for 2023
There are three moves of God after the prophetic Apostolic.
The Saints movement, which took place in 2007
The Lord’s movement, which took place in 2016
The Kingdom-establishing movement, which we are entering into now
There seems to be a reset in the human race every 2,000 years.
When Adam and Eve were kicked out of the Garden, the “fall” of the human race began.
That was the race that existed until Abraham was called out to birth the “Hebrew” race. The Hebrew or Israeli race was started through Abraham.
2,000 years later, Jesus came and started the “Church” race.
2,000 years later, He will come to start the “Kingdom” race.
The “Church” race has eternal life in their spirit, but mortality in their body. But when the “Kingdom” race begins, it will be at the RT, and they will not only have eternal life in their Spirit, but they will also have immortalized bodies.
It's really going to happen, saints!!
The church was birthed in 20-30 A.D. If you had 30 A.D. added to 2000 A.D, that would take us to 2030 A.D.
So the time is short. And the time is near.
Believe and be ready for God's best, and be prepared for the world's worst.
This is going to be a year of contrast and conflict. Be ready for the positive power versus the confusion and problems. Demonstrate the glory versus those who deny the glory and are ungodly.
We don't know when the Lord is coming. So be ready at all times.
Parable of the 10 virgins: Be like the 5 wise virgins. Take extra oil because the bridegroom will be delayed.
Past movements
God always prepares a place, a people and a message for what He wants to do next.
God prepared Martin Luther for many years before using him to birth the “Prophetic” and “Protestant” movement.
Then, God used John Wesley to birth the “Holiness” movement.
After that came the “Pentecostal” movement, where God brought more people together to spearhead His next move.
The same thing was in the “Latter Rain” movement and the “Charismatic” renewal.
Then came the prophetic “Apostolic” movement to bring the restoration of the Lord’s prophets and apostles.
Then, we had the Saints movement, and after that the “Army of the Lord” movement in 2016.
Final move
Now, we're getting ready for the final move of God.
As in Isaiah 60, it's going to be a time of great darkness for the world.
But it's going to be light and victory and power in the church, and with those who know how to move with what God's doing.
So it's a contrast: the world is going to get more wicked, but the church is going to get more glorious.
I felt the Lord's urgency to prepare us for both.
The same grace and faith that takes to manifest the glory in Revelation is the same grace and faith to take us through what's coming.
What we had in 2021 is kids’ play compared to what's coming.
In Matthew 24, the disciples asked Jesus three questions: (1) when will these things be; (2) what events will signal Christ's return; and (3) when will the end of the world come.
Jesus gave a long list of things that's going to happen before the end - eg. false messiahs will appear deceiving many, wars and rumours of wars.
Deception will be rampant.
So you better know the truth and be around people with maturity and wisdom that can discern error from truth and truth from error.
The Bible also says in the last days, many will be offended.
I want you to become unoffendable.
Important to: (1) talk in tongues a lot; and (2) know the word of God.
Fullness of time
Three things that must come to fullness of time before Jesus can return.
The coming of the Lord is not a specific day.
The Bible said even Jesus didn't know when He was coming, only the Father knows.
Galatians 4:4 says when the fullness of time came, God set forth his son.
Ephesians 1:10 says it’s God's pleasure that in the dispensation or period of the fullness of the times (plural), God is going to fulfill and finish all things, according to Revelations 10:7.
We're in the fullness of the times of the fulfilling of all things.
Unfinished business
In a vision/dream, the Lord spoke to Bishop Bill Hamon that he was still living here on earth because God had another move that He wanted Bishop Bill Hamon to spearhead.
He already spearheaded the Prophetic/Apostolic and the Saints movement; and then the “Army of the Lord” movement.
The Lord says now He is getting ready for the final climactic, fulfilling and revealing of all mysteries.
We're now in the beginnings of the Final Reformation. This is what is called the “Kingdom-establishment” movement.
God’s greatest desire for us
Be ready: It's about to get worse before it gets better.
The glory of the latter house shall be greater than the former.
We are to go from glory to glory until Christ's likeness.
The church is to grow and increase until she reaches the fullness of Christ in His likeness and demonstration of His kingdom (Ephesians 4:13).
God doesn't look at suffering like we do. God will allow you to suffer if it will conform you to Christ's image and likeness more - whom the Lord loves us, He beats the darkness out of them.
God's number one passion, desire and will for each one of us is to be conformed to the image and likeness of Jesus Christ.
Romans 8:28-29 is a covenant principle we need to know. God promises and makes a covenant that all things work together for good if you're called by God and you love Him.
Don't be conformed to this world but transformed by the renewing of your mind and thinking to be like Christ.
