Shalom from Alabama!
 
Open Heavens Prophetic Conference, Jerusalem
 
Open Heavens Prophetic ConferenceIn December 2007, Sadhu Sundar Selvaraj was sent by the Lord to fast and pray in Jerusalem.  He stayed in Pastor Shelley's apartment, where he had many heavenly visitors giving him details for a prophetic conference the Lord wanted him to host in Jerusalem.

This powerful conference was just held June 6-10 with speakers who minister under an open heaven.  They were Sadhu Sundar Selvaraj, Neville Johnson, Paul Keith Davis, Steven L. Shelley and Steven Brooks.

The Lord told Sadhu that He would be present in the conference as the Lion of Judah and that He would roar from Zion and utter His Voice to the end of the earth as we would intercede on behalf of Israel.
 
Sadhu was told that the princes of darkness are seeking to entrench in the ground of Israel. The enemy proposes to sprout untruth and evil from the Land.  It's not an ordinary fight for land.  The politicians are planning to give up Jerusalem before the end of the year.  The Lord called us to Jerusalem to uproot and purify the Land with intercession and proclamations. 

 

Sadhu was instructed by the Lord that we were all to remove our shoes before entering the tent because it would be holy ground for the Holy One of Israel to visit.  High-ranking angels would come, carrying the Presence of the Holy God.

 

There were more than 400 people from many different nations worshipping the Lord in a tent on the Mount of Olives with songs that were only to and about Him.  It was truly an awesome experience!

 

 

Night Visitation of Three Biblical Priests

Pastor Shelley had a wonderful divine experience in his bedroom on the third night of the conference while his wife was sleeping.  Paul Keith and Wanda Davis stayed in Pastor Shelley's apartment during the conference, although Paul Keith only arrived on this night after speaking in a conference in England.  Pastor Shelley shares about his experience:

 

 

During the first night that Paul Keith was spending the night in our apartment, I was awakened in the night with conversation.  And it sounded like it was coming from Paul Keith and Wanda’s room.

 

I got really awake, and I got really worried.  I thought, “Oh no, their bed’s not comfortable.  Maybe they can’t sleep, or they need water.”

 

I was just about to get up to go see what they needed when all of a sudden this unbelievable Presence of God filled the bedroom where I’ve met with the Lord many times.  And it was so powerful and so beautiful that it changed the whole atmosphere of the room.

 

And I had a physical feeling, like my hair standing up at attention.  Then, in the spirit realm, three handsome Biblical-looking priests walked right into the bedroom and stood at the foot of the bed.  I started tearing up and began to worship the Lord. I knew this was a visitation.

 

They were dressed in priestly garments like from the priesthood of the Old Testament.  It was the first time I’ve ever seen anything like that, except on the Day of Atonement when I saw the High Priest changing garments.  The one in the center seemed to be older than the other two, but all had gray beards and gray hair. 

 

They said to me, “We’ve come to bless you.”

 

And I said, “Wonderful.  I need to be blessed.  Who sent you?”

 

They said, “We have come from the Father of Lights.”

Now the Scripture says that all good and perfect gifts come from the Father of Lights so I recognized for sure that if the Presence of God hadn’t confirmed that these were holy messengers, then their answer certainly was the confirmation.

 

Since I don’t know who they were, I’m not going to say who they represent, but it was very real.

 

And all of a sudden they just simply crossed their hands, stretched them out and pronounced over us the Aaronic blessing.  And the Presence of the Lord became so real that I truly felt like I had received a blessing from heaven.

 

(Num 6:22) And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying,

(Num 6:23) Speak unto Aaron and unto his sons, saying, On this wise ye shall bless the children of Israel, saying unto them, 

(Num 6:24) The LORD bless thee, and keep thee:

(Num 6:25) The LORD make his face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee:

(Num 6:26) The LORD lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace.

 

(Num 6:27) And they shall put my name upon the children of Israel; and I will bless them.

This Aaronic blessing is the invoking of the Name of the Lord over the people of God.

 

And what I didn’t think about at the time was that this was Shavuot (Pentecost).  At sundown on Sunday evening, Shavuot began.

 

So about the time that these three priests appeared in the realm of the spirit, many Jewish people were on their way to the Kotel, the Western Wall, to receive the blessing of the priesthood, the Kohanim.

 

They stay up all night long on Shavuot, studying the Law of God.  And then in the wee hours of the morning, about three o’clock, they all start walking to the Wall.  It’s the time of the year that they wear solid white from top to bottom -both men and women.

 

And about that time is when these priests appeared.  It was so special!

 

The next morning, Paul Keith and Wanda didn’t know what had happened.  But I really believe they received the blessing of the priests before they came to our room. The only difference was that they slept through their blessing and I happened to wake up and get mine.

 

From that point on, the rest of the conference was different for me.  My interaction with the Presence of God was totally different.  I felt completely plugged in to the purposes of God over that conference.

 

And every person that we ministered to from that moment on received a special impartation and gave testimony to it.  Even miraculous healings took place because of the blessing of the Lord.   

 

When God invokes His Name, when the Name of God is invoked over you, everything about you - body, soul, and spirit - is called to attention.  And you are then living under the Name.  It is a blessing to be able to live and minister out from the Name.

 

 

[How interesting and timely that the July 2nd edition of the Jerusalem Post has an article entitled "Third Temple preparations begin with priestly garb."  It relates that Jewish men who are descended from the Levites are being measured for priestly garments to be made for them for use in the Third Temple.  Click here to read the article.]

 

 

 

More To Come . . .

 

In the next update I hope to share some highlights of the preaching from this prophetic conference.

 

One of the major intercessory concerns was that the enemy wanted to bring about events in Israel that would cause the Battle of Armageddon to begin before God's timing so that the Bride's revival and the harvests of harvesters and souls could not take place!

 

It is time for intercession to be intensified!!!!!

In Closing

 

How great is our God!  It is a wonderful miracle that I could be here in Alabama for Bro. Shelley's campmeeting/conference (July 13-20)!  And I can't even remember the last time I was in the USA for July 4th!

 

The Lord is an amazing provider, and He uses your faithfulness and generosity!  Thank you so much for your prayers and financial support!

 

I will arrive back in Jerusalem on July 24th.  Three weeks later we will have to pay our quarterly rent.  Anything that you can do to help us will be such a blessing!

 

 

May the Lord bless you and keep you.

May the Lord make His face to shine upon you and be gracious unto you.

May the Lord lift up His countenance upon you and give you SHALOM!

 

May you be blessed with the awareness of the Lord's Name upon you!

 

 

Blessings, Grace and Shalom from Alabama!
