Prophetic Word Over Gainesville, Florida

Prophetic Word Over Gainesville, Florida

Now hear the Lord saying, "Watch as the spirit of Joseph comes on your city," decrees the Lord, and the church of your city."  Joseph, his name means to add.  It's also a governmental name and a name for administration.

I hear the Lord saying also, "That the gift of administration has been abused within that city, both in the church government and in civil government.  The Lord says, "I am raising up a Joseph house that's going to bring forth the word of the Lord and it's going to cause the store-houses to be built up in the city of Gainesville," in Jesus name.

So now Lord, I just say that you will release upon the Gainesville people, a Joseph anointing.

I say in Jesus name, that Gainesville will truly gain, in Jesus name, they will truly gain.  "And you watch," says the Lord, "Over the next three years, as the football team begins to increase in strength and in power.  They have gone through the famine just like Joseph did when they were in Egypt."  But now the Lord says, "I am going to cause a turnaround in the football team and you're going to see it as a natural sign that I am turning the church around within that city.  And I will cause the church of that city to gain momentum," declares the Lord.

I even heard before this service tonight, that the Lord is going to establish 24/7 Houses of Prayer in Gainesville.  There are even those right now who are attempting it, those who are thinking about it and those who are praying on it.  There have been some night watches already within the city.

And the Lord says also, "That over the city of Gainesville that the night watch is important to that city.  Because it is in the night when the enemy has been coming into that city and doing the most damage.  So you're going to rise up, you're going to see many ministries rise up in the night hours and begin doing warfare over the city, in Jesus name.

You know something, it's like the church in Gainesville feels like they've been forgotten about.  Not that the Lord has forgotten but it's like all or some of the major ministries have forgotten about Gainesville.  And you've wondered, "I wonder if we could get this person or this person, and it's like, I hear that cry, "I have been forgotten."  But the Lord says, "that your land will no longer be called desolate and barren, but that your land will be called Hephzibah and Beulah," in Jesus name.

For the Lord says, I have made covenant with the city of Gainesville.  I have covenant with this city that literally sits on a hill.  And I have called for it to be a light to all of Florida.
