It is reported: A rare full ‘Honey Moon’ has not fallen on Friday 13th in June since 1919 and it will not appear again until 2098. See: http://www.express.co.uk/news/nature/482025/Honey-Moon-Watch-rare-Friday-13th-celestial-event-NOW
This is where the term honeymoon was derived and it represents a fruitful summer. I tend to shy away from signs unless they are converging on what Our Heavenly Father is saying to me. Signs are only for confirmation of a Word from Above, not initiation of action.
On October 31st, 2007, we were having a small gathering at our house discussing aspects of the salt covenant. My assistant called with the following dream:
Terri’s Dream – early morning hours of 10/31/2007
I was on my way to Bob’s house, but it was not the house he lives in now. It was a very large house with a parking area in the front for five to six cars. I went into the
house were Bob was having his meeting and he sent me to the cabana that was located at the back of the property. The backyard was huge and the landscaping was absolutely beautiful. As I headed to the very back of the property where the cabana was I could see Amber and she was panicking. There was a bobcat that was circling the cabana trying to get to her. I grabbed Amber and started looking for someplace to hide. The cabana had three rooms, as we went inside and closed the doors behind us we could see that there was a gap under the door (almost like swinging doors) that was large enough for the bobcat to get through. We ran to one room and that door also had a large gap, so we went to the next room which was a shower area. The door to this room still had a gap large enough for the bobcat to get under. Then we went to the third room, this door had a small gap so I pushed Amber to the corner of the room and stood in front of her. We heard the bobcat come to the door and he was able to squeeze under the door. Just as the bobcat was fixing to attack us, I was able to get my foot on his neck and hold him down. I told Amber to run to the house. I applied pressure on the bobcat with my foot hoping to hurt him. When I lifted my foot, he seemed hurt and I was able to get out and head to the house. When I got to the house I realized I forgot something in the cabana, but I needed the keys. I got Bob out of his meeting and he handed me a large bunch of keys and pulled out the cabana key. As I was making my way back to the cabana I noticed with each step I was losing keys. When I got to the Cabana I only had one key and it was the one to the Cabana. The bobcat was still inside, but this time I was not afraid of him, he seemed friendly. I went back to the house and told Bob that I lost all the keys except one, he told me I had to go back and find all of them. As I headed back to the yard I started finding the keys underneath bushes, there was a key under each bush. I gathered up all the keys I had lost and went back up to the house and returned them to Bob.
Inquiry of the dream on 11/4/07
The Cabana represents the Temple:
The first room is Outer Court
The second room is the Holy Place
The third room is the Holy of Holies
Bobcat is a predator and lives up to 16 (years) in the wild. It also has a basic hunting area
of 16 square miles. The bobcat represents a worldly illusion of love seeking to destroy
God’s Love (Amber).
The gap allows for easy access (citizens)
Second gap is more difficult to enter (priests)
The shower represented the required cleansing to enter the third room
Third gap is minimal entry (high priest)
When Terri stepped on the neck of the bobcat, it represented the overthrowing or
destroying altars. (Exodus 13:13)
The key to the cabana is the Key of David: Love, the man after God’s own heart.
The other keys of the Kingdom are in reference to:
The Pentecostal Church had some keys but had wrongfully used them.
The Scripture that The FATHER gave the group concerning the dream:
Luke 12:32 Fear not, little flock; for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom. Luke 12:33 Sell that ye have, and give alms; provide yourselves bags which
wax not old, a treasure in the heavens that faileth not, where no thief approacheth, neither moth corrupteth. Luke 12:34 For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also. Luke 12:35 Let your loins be girded about, and [your] lights burning; Luk 12:36 And ye yourselves like unto men that wait for their lord, when he will return from the wedding; that when he cometh and knocketh, they may open unto him immediately.
Coincidentally and having totally forgotten about the dream, Pam and I were led to begin work on a cabana in the backyard last August. I had some simple plans drawn up and began work on the cabana. During the construction, Mike Winchell , who was at the meeting in 2007, recalled the dream and had typed out a copy of it. The actual cabana tracks with the cabana in the dream. The actual cabana has 3 rooms, one being upstairs (an upper room) above the shower. It also has a fire pit in the first room. A brazen altar?
Today is slated for the official opening of the cabana. We are having a laidback celebration this evening with friends. Several delays of various types had delayed the completion until now. I had hoped to have it completed back in May. The Honey Moon of 2014 marks the manifestation of the dream of 2007.
The honeymoon is a manifestation of unity.
What does Father have in store?
The Age of Pentecost is associated with the maturing of the saints. This is the period of growing in faith and walking in Love and truth. We are called to be lawful and become trustworthy. We must not stop along the way and settle for good. We must continue and expect the best in our life. If there is blockage or hindrance in your life, confront it with Love, then move on. We have an inheritance not of this world but it resides in Heaven. We must pursue the deeper mysteries of Our Heavenly Father and bring them forth to minister to the world. Abraham understood this pursuit. We have been chosen to pursue this mandate to bring forth the “continuing” city:
Hebrews 11:8 By faith Abraham obeyed when he was called to go out to the place which he would receive as an inheritance. And he went out, not knowing where he was going. 9 By faith he dwelt in the land of promise as in a foreign country, dwelling in tents with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise; 10 for he waited for the city which has foundations, whose builder and maker is God.
Hebrews 13:13 Therefore let us go forth to Him, outside the camp, bearing His reproach. 14 For here we have no continuing city, but we seek the one to come. 15 Therefore by Him let us continually offer the sacrifice of praise to God, that is, the fruit of our lips, giving thanks to His name. 16 But do not forget to do good and to share, for with such sacrifices God is well pleased.
We must die to the “flesh”, the old man. We must go outside the camp, the camp where the masses place their trust. We must seek the one to come and set our focus on finding that narrow path where the mysteries are revealed. The mysteries reserved for this time in history are given to those would not be denied but are found worthy to be chosen as stewards and serve all of mankind.
I was listening to a tape of William Branham yesterday morning. He mentioned that North America was full of intellectual heathens and that was keeping the Holy Spirit from moving freely among the people. In today’s terms, the ego has been in control rather than the Spirit. Men are seeking alternatives to the Power of GOD and the ministry of the Holy Spirit. The issue includes the fact that people continue to move toward the self-centered, mind-centered walk. They are more concerned about obtaining their entitled status rather than having a servant’s heart for the brother in need.
The United States has effectively endorsed lawlessness through legislation. Little by little, laws have been changed to accommodate the wishes of lawless groups who have banded together demanding their liberty to walk in their lawless state without any repercussion. They fail to consider that Our Heavenly Father will not be moved by their lawlessness. Yes, HE is slow to anger but there will come a day of judgment over the nation. The illusion of blessing will be removed. There will be weeping and gnashing of the teeth unless there is a corporate repentance.
A great many ministries have gone away and the move of the Holy Spirit is now isolated in the country. I believe the Remnant will continue to press in and not be denied the operation of the Holy Spirit in their lives. Their hearts will be firmly set on the Heavenly objective of bringing Heaven to earth. The anointing has been reserved and kept safe among the Remnant. They will continue to seek the pure truth in Love. There will be no ulterior motive for personal gain as has been seen in the past. They are known by their servant’s heart. They hunger and thirst after righteousness and will be rewarded.
The anointing is reserved for those who will truly take it to the highways and the byways. It will be dispersed to those who have the need. The strong will minister to the weak differing from the past where the weak had to support those who were in charge.
I expect that the intellectual heathens will have a reality check before long. Their trust in unrighteous mammon will be exposed for what it is. There will be a light rise out of the darkness to expose the blindness among the people. This is my hope and expectation. Let us be counted among those who will not be denied entrance through that narrow gate. Let not the door be closed before we enter in.
By the way, William Branham’s tape was dated June 8th, 1957. Things have gotten worse since then.
John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that HE gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. KJV
How much power is contained in those 25 words? Why do we ignore the power of Love? Why do we focus on about every other aspect of Scripture? The solution is before our very eyes. Quit ignoring it. Ignoring this Truth is the source of ignorance.
Believers
Un-believers
Make-believers
One of the issues during the Age of Pentecost has been the make-believers. Those are the ones who operate under the subtlety of deception toward the Body of Christ.
Matthew 7:21 “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. 22 Many will say to Me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?’ 23 And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!’
If you purpose to walk in Love and truth, you will cease your lawless acts. You will assume responsibility for your past lawlessness and repent. You will seek forgiveness and clean the slate. We must be careful to separate ourselves from those who would bypass the lawful access to the Spiritual. A false prophet will foretell whereas a true prophet will “forth tell”, that is to say he speaks only what he hears Our Heavenly Father instructs him to speak. “The Word of the LORD came to me saying”.
One of the “gifts” of the Holy Spirit is the “’discerning of spirits” in 1 Corinthians 12:10. This is a necessary gift as we reach the climax of the maturing of the vessels of dishonor. If it were possible, even the Elect would be deceived.
I truly believe that as we seek the fullness of the revelation of Love, we will operate in this gift. Why? We will be found worthy by Our Heavenly Father to properly execute its operation and respond properly when confronted by the make-believer who is walking in lawlessness. Our goal must be to expose the lawlessness with the intent of restoration, not decisive destruction of the person.
1 Corinthians 12:31 But earnestly desire the best (greater) gifts. And yet I show you a more excellent way.
The best gift is the one needed for the situation you are dealing with at the moment. This does not exclude you from operating in the other gifts. The more excellent way is to operate in gifts by operating from a position of Love thus Paul immediately discusses the “more excellent way” in the next chapter. The “gifts” are for use to minister to the ‘horizontal”, the world. You do not need the gifts for you relationship with Our Heavenly Father (the vertical). Attempting to operate in the “Spirituals” without Love places you in the classification of make-believer. The summation of the Law is Love. As you immerse yourself in Love, you become acceptable for a higher operation in the “Spirituals”… in a lawful manner. Beware of those who have signs and wonders but have no Love in their ministry. In the final analysis, they will be told by Jesus ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!’. If you don’t walk in Love, you will ultimately be deceived. There is a great probability it will have to do with the “love of money”.
As of last week, the European Central Bank is now in the midst of implementing negative interest on deposits. Why? To force depositors to seek a return on their money elsewhere… mainly the stock market. This will not end well.
The U.S. stock market is already excessively high by historic standards and into bubble territory. Zero interest rate policies by the central banks forced investors to move their money elsewhere for a return: a move from zero risk to a greater level of risk. They believe they can keep the perception of “wealth effect” going by this latest move. The problem is that the average middle class investor is moving toward safety versus risk. In addition to that position, baby boomers are beginning to cash in their portfolios to position themselves for monthly distributions to live on. Many of them know the risk of the market having seen past meltdowns disintegrate their principal in a matter of hours.
How long can the charade last? Only Our Heavenly Father knows. After all , HE is the One who blinds the eyes so people can’t see the obvious. This allows the maturing process to occur for the vessels of dishonor. Fortunately, the vessels of honor are also moving toward full maturity.
There has been a “dearth” in the land, possibly for the past 21 years. There has been a famine of “power from On High”. What happened to the major ministries where masses of people were healed and restored? There still may be “pockets” of success, but for the most part, there has been a vacuum of the “anointing”. This appears to have been another time of compression, or preparation. Compression occurs before expansion. The maturing process of Jacob lasted 21 years before he finally had a change of character.
I believe our honoring the Feast of Pentecost was a necessary step for the next phase of expanding the Kingdom on earth. It is all about getting our hearts right and in one accord. The Body of Christ needs to be in unity before the next expansion. There will be a Remnant rising to leaven the whole lump:
Luke 13:20 And again He said, “To what shall I liken the kingdom of God? 21 It is like leaven, which a woman took and hid in three measures of meal till it was all leavened.” NKJV
The vessels of dishonor are preparing the way by moving the globe toward financial distress. Their greed (love of money) will be their downfall. The reliance on money rather than Our Heavenly Father will evaporate. Men will turn from the wicked ways when their houses built on sand are demolished under the weight of the coming judgment of all the lawlessness. There will be a gathering and a dividing. The tares will be burned up.
16 Countries were represented (16 is the number of Love)

Thank you so much for your participation!
Appropriately, the following video ties Love and courage together, two primary attributes of the Remnant. Go to Full Screen with sound up to get the maximum effect.
Thanks to Rick for the link.
I want to thank all of those who are contributing to this ministry. We appreciate your support and it is very encouraging to us. I read every letter and see each online contribution made to the ministry. As a practice, we send annual letters rather than each time someone gives. This minimizes expenses.
Servias is in its 8th year of operation and we have managed to operate without any payroll expense. We have dear friends who volunteer in the book distribution. My assistant in my commercial business volunteers in the bookkeeping area.
Our goal is to elevate those who follow the broadcasts, blogs, and read our published books in the area of Love, specifically to minister at the horizontal level toward mankind.
