On Thursday night of our Watchman Intercessor Assembly, we had a powerful, divine encounter with God. Dutch Sheets delivered a tremendous message and then prophesied and encouraged the leadership to come to the platform. The Holy Spirit began to move mightily....
Read MoreIntroduction The International Coalition of Apostles (ICA), founded in 1999, now counts over 500 members. Membership requires nomination by at least two active ICA members, presuming that peer-level apostles are the most qualified to recognize fellow apostles. This statement has been processed with ICA members over a two year period and it is now issued as an official consensus statement. Certain ICA members may hold varying opinions regarding some of the details, but there is agreement on the general thrust and essence of this statement. Definition An apostle is a Christian leader gifted, taught, commissioned, and sent by God with the authority to establish the foundational government of the church within an assigned sphere of ministry by hearing what the Spirit is saying to the churches and by setting things in order accordingly for the extension of the kingdom of God. Gifts and Ministries Apostles, by definition, have been given the spiritual gift of apostle...
Read MoreThe first explanation is "are we in known sin?" This may seem the most simple and obvious. However, sin is likened in the Bible to leaven. Leaven cannot be seen but has an affect of "puffing up" or causing the bread to rise -seemingly on it's own. That is what sin does for us; it puffs us up or causes us to rise in pride. What does pride do to us? It blinds us (like the Apostle Paul on the road to Damascus) and causes destruction; Scripture says that pride comes before a fall, Prov. 16:18. ...
Read MorePublished January 6th, 2010. WISE Ministries International and Tree if Life International Publishing the following word is risky at best. It is the most sobering word I have ever received. I have been praying about the word - even wanting to withhold its release. But I have asked the Lord for some confirmations and they have come. Please pray about the word and ask the Lord to speak to you about it. There seems to be a tendency in the prophetic of-late to not “upset the apple cart” and to be flowery and upbeat. We feel that this is a time to be responsible and to be sober and to call the times (and the fight) like we see it. {{{silver|gold}}} The word focuses on the “Seven Mountains” of culture as referenced in Micah 4 and Isaiah 2. The word is in no special order so please read it...

Read MoreCharles Robinson Dec 1, 2009 Dear Friend of WISE Ministries: In a prophetic picture I saw a man (he looked like the Captain of a ship) being forced to walk the plank to his certain death. Death would come through drowning or being eaten by predators such as sharks. The '"pirates" (the enemy) had taken control of his ship (business). The plank was the overarching policies that he was being required to "walk-out" or on. The plank of the policies such as health care bill and other taxing issues such as "cap and trade" being proposed were going to cause his business to fail at worst or he would lose control at best. Then, as the captain was just at the end of the plank about to fall in the water, the Lord came and supernaturally extended the plank. Each time the captain would walk to the end...
Read MoreGreetings friend of WISE Ministries International, At the beginning of each year, we seek the Lord for the coming year and beyond for His input on the church at large and world events, This is what we have sensed the Lord saying. The first word is from Pastor Liz and then my word (Pastor Charles) follows hers. Enjoy! Prophetic Word for 2009 & Beyond Pastor Liz Robinson January 2nd, 2009 WISE Ministries International Tree of Life International Prayer & Praise Center The sands of time are blowing, for I am uncovering treasures, establishing new cities, new ways of doing ministry, new ways of ministering.

Read MoreMessage at Glory of Zion’s Head of the Year Conference, 5770 by Dr. Robert Heidler
We live in an exciting time! God is preparing to pour out the greatest move of the Spirit of all time. It is the Second Reformation, and in preparation, God is restoring the Church to His original plan! God is re-forming His church to become a New Wineskin!
The sad truth is, for many, church today doesn’t seem to “work.” We have pastors who work long, hard hours. We have saints that love the Lord. But we don’t see the kind of results they saw in the New Testament. The lost are not being reached. Nations are not being changed.
Why is it that “church” today doesn’t work the way it did in the New Testament? The answer, I believe, is that we haven’t followed the directions!
{{{silver|gold}}}
1 Cor. 12:28 establishes an order for the church. “God has appointed FIRST apostles, SECOND prophets, THIRD teachers, THEN come miracles .healing .helps, etc.
God says, for the church to function as He intended, you start with the APOSTLE. The apostle has the anointing to make “church” work! For church to operate the way God intended, you must be correctly related to, or “aligned with,” an apostle! When you align with an apostle, apostolic anointing flows into everything you do!
An apostle is like a faucet! God’s anointing for church flows through the apostle! No matter how hard you try, or how good your methods, if your cup is not under the faucet, church will not work!
But if you align yourself with a true apostle, apostolic anointing begins to flow! The LIFE of God fills His church! The key to a church that functions in New Testament power is apostolic ALIGNMENT!
What do we mean by alignment?
To align with an apostle means you get in a committed relationship with that apostle. It’s not a hierarchy where the apostle is a dictator who orders you around. But it is a committed relationship. It’s a covenant relationship. Chuck Pierce is my apostle. I’m in covenant with him.
Your apostle is one you go to for counsel. He’s the one you trust for direction. You commit yourself to your apostle like David’s mighty men committed to David.

We are not entering a peaceful season. This season is supernatural! God’s people must leave “religion” and their natural way of battle and enter this supernatural season with sharpened weapons. This is a season of breaking new ground. When you look at the symbol for AYIN, you can see the necessary action for breakthrough. You must extend your hand through the darkness and into the heavenlies. At that point, the Lord will give you strength by touching you with His HAND. He will release the Sword of Revelation that will connect with you to do war. This will be the battle of the EYES. You will battle with MAMMON in the next years. You will battle dark watchers and “dark pools”. This will be a season where we battle with occult structures that are attempting to rule the earth.
