Prophetic Words the Lord has Spoken to and Through Pastor James
The following is a prophecy given from the Lord to Pastor James Brandt on September 17, 2005 at 5:00AM for RCC and the Big Rapids area...
Prepare yourself and the people, for there shall be a visitation of my Spirit that you or your people have not seen thus far. For mighty miracles, signs, and wonders shall take place in the midst of the congregation as they lift up and exalt My Son Jesus, My Holy Written Word, and seek My Face. Many shall come from afar and taste and see that the Lord is good and that He dwells among and within His people.
Prepare your vessels for this move of My Spirit. It shall take place suddenly and last as long as I am feared in your midst and in your personal life. Harden not your hearts; prepare the way, for this move of My Spirit shall exceed even your desire and expectations. My Word shall be confirmed with power in this place. My Glory dwells in you, in earthen vessels, but shall also be manifested tangibly by all who will come to this place. Just as the Cloud led the children of Israel by day and fire by night, My tangible presence shall do exploits in your midst saith the Lord. Many shall come and be blessed and say, “we have seen strange things in this place.” (Luke 5:24-26) My Word shall be confirmed with power in this visitation.
The following is part of a prophecy that was given to Pastor James & Elizabeth Brandt by Dr. Rodney Howard-Browne on April 11, 2007 at the Great Awakening Conference in Jacksonville, Florida...
"The Lord says that you have been crying out to God for Him to show you His glory and to manifest His power. The Lord says that He has sent you to the Big Rapids area to do something different that has never been done there before. Get ready! Get ready! For what you have been crying out to God for shall come to pass within the next 12 months. The power of God shall do unusual things in your midst. Mighty Rapids! Mighty Rapids!" Dr. Rodney Howard-Browne then laid hands on Pastor James and Elizabeth Brandt and said, "Fire on you, now take it back to Big Rapids!"
Below is the account of a wonderful outpouring of the Holy Spirit that took place at RCC on May 3, 2007...this is only the beginning of what God is about to do in this area...
Pastor
James called RCC to a time of prayer every night at 7:00PM from April 22-May 6.
On May 3, 2007 at 12:45AM, a glorious outpouring of the Holy Spirit took place
at RCC! There were six members of RCC gathered together that night when suddenly
the large stage-like curtain in the back of our church sanctuary began to move
very strongly in a wave type movement. As we walked toward the back of the
sanctuary, the presence of God became stronger and stronger until we couldn't
stand up. There was a beautiful breeze flowing through the sanctuary that was no
doubt a manifestation of the Holy Spirit's presence. As we placed ourselves in
that breeze, it would move us in the direction it was flowing as if you were
placing yourself in a wave in the ocean.
As all six of us gathered in the back of the sanctuary, a sparkling gold
dust-like substance began to fall on us as we worshipped the Lord. The presence
of the Lord was so overwhelming, powerful, glorious, and beautiful all at the
same time. There were flashes like lightning that would appear near the ceiling
and in the seats--like flames of fire. As we walked into the lobby of the
church, we heard angels singing in harmony with the most beautiful voices.
As we walked into every room, it felt as if God was pouring and saturating the
oil of His presence into every room. We stayed and enjoyed the glorious outpouring
and manifest presence of God until 3:00AM that morning. We thank and praise God for what He has begun
and the wonderful things that will be taking place in the Big Rapids area for
His glory!
The following is a prophecy given from the Lord to Pastor James Brandt on Saturday, March 8, 2008 for the Body of Christ...
The Spirit of God says that this is a season of incredible spiritual breakthrough for you My people. Dreams, visions, supernatural guidance and wisdom shall be increased to give you an advantage over your enemies. My favor shall shine upon your face like the noonday sun. That which has seemed impossible is within reach; that which seems impossible shall be made manifest in the natural. The enemy has been trying to sift, and to keep you from entering into the fullness of MY joy. The traps that Satan has set for you to stumble and fall shall be brought to nothing.
I have given My angels charge over you so that you will not even dash your foot against a stone. I am sending forth My mighty angels and ministering spirits that shall usher in and bring these things to pass. I AM your God, I AM your deliverer, I AM the God of your salvation saith the Lord.
The Spirit of God says that the enemy cannot and will not stop this mighty move; this outpouring shall surely come to pass. A river of joy is going to flood this place, a river of joy is going to flood your hearts, and the love of the Father shall be made manifest in your midst.
Get ready, it is even at the door; it is even at the door of your heart. Open up the door of your heart saith the Lord, and a flood of My Spirit shall come in; rivers of living water shall gush forth and with it shall come healing and deliverance that you have not seen thus far in your life.
