Watchmen O Watchmen

“An oracle concerning Dumah: Someone calls to me from Seir, "Watchman, what is left of the night? Watchman, what is left of the night?" Isaiah 21:11
Watchmen O watchmen what do you see?
I see the oiled hands of many saints rubbing down the liberty bell and the crack in her side.
Watchmen O watchmen what do you hear?
I hear the Lord say that the prayers of the saints have reached His ears and that He is pouring out His oil through His saints and repairing the breach in the United States and that it would spread quickly through out the nations.
Listen! Your watchmen lift up their voices; together they shout for joy. When the LORD returns to Zion, they will see it with their own eyes. Isaiah 52:8
Watchmen O watchmen what do you see?
I see a very old eagle staring at me. His beak is crusted, his feathers matted and his eyes clouded and gray.
Watchmen O watchmen what do you hear?
I hear the voice of the Lord say the eagle is the United States but so too His church and His prophets speaking in vain. Their words are as crusted as their beaks and their vision and foresight clouded so they can not see, their wings matted with debris for not flying with Me. Therefore I am sending forth a generation of laid down lovers who will speak only the words I tell them to speak and it will be like rich honey butter to the lost, to the beak of the church, to the mouth of her prophets, if they are willing to be humble, if they are willing to receive.
"Son of man, I have made you a watchman for the house of Israel; so hear the word I speak and give them warning from me. Ezekiel 3:17
Watchmen O watchmen what do you see?
I see the same oiled hands that were seen rubbing down the liberty bell are now rubbing down the old eagle. I see what was once old, now new, what was once blind, now can see, what once could not fly is now soaring in the heavens above proclaiming liberty to the captives and setting them free. I see in the beak of the eagle is an ancient key, the key of hope, the key of humility.
“But those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.” Isaiah 40:31
Watchmen O watchmen what do you hear?
I hear the groaning of past generations, their chains breaking free and the sound of the liberty bell ringing, ‘set my people free!’ I hear the sound of galloping horses and their riders singing love songs from the deep.
Watchmen O watchmen what do you see?
I see an army of laid down lovers with supernatural vision to not only see deep inside man what others refuse to see but to also pull forth destiny. I see the saints of God arising in victory and this nation will never ever be the same again!
“Tell My people that I have not come to call the righteous but I have come to save the lost, watch and see what I am going to do within the walls of government through the lost for then they will call on Me!”
While Jesus was having dinner at Levi's
house, many tax collectors and "sinners" were eating with him and his
disciples, for there were many who followed him. When the teachers of the law
who were Pharisees saw him eating with the "sinners" and tax
collectors, they asked his disciples: "Why does he eat with tax collectors
and 'sinners'?"
On hearing this, Jesus said to them, "It is not the healthy who need a
doctor, but the sick. I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners."
Mark 2: 15-17

notes-
September 17, 1787, The United States Constitution is signed in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
The connection between the Liberty Bell and African-American history is revealed at the Liberty Bell Center, which opened in 2003. Exhibitions, videos and interactive displays explain how the Abolitionist Movement adopted the icon of freedom based on the inscribed quote from Leviticus, reading “Proclaim liberty throughout all the land unto all the inhabitants thereof,” as a symbol of its anti-slavery activities. Beginning in the late 1800s, the Liberty Bell traveled around the country to expositions to help heal the divisions of the Civil War. It reminded Americans of their earlier days when they worked together for independence.
A Kyros Moment in Time

A bird doesn't sing because it has an answer, it sings because it has a song.
-- Maya Angelou
Most definitely one of my most treasured quotes that bears great witness to my spirit as well as to my name (Robin) (smiles) So I will sing to you a song that was birthed in my quiet time with the Lord, not because I have the answer but because I have a song.

On April 7th, while in my quiet time with the Lord, He came to me in a mighty rushing wind and flew me through my ceiling and then through a tall ancient ceiling that seemed to go on forever and I heard the Lord say it was the ceiling of the ancient church and he was blowing it open wide! He said the church was in a paralytic, prehistoric, prejudice mind set/state, wow! But He was awakening her to true intimacy in Him.
I was then ushered up and through ancient walls of the church covered in ancient art but I was flying so fast and in the Lord's fury that I was unable to really view the paintings and again the Lord said that He was removing the paintings for they were full of prejudices of man and the church He was merging together would be made of His paintings, His jewels, His work, He was coming to redeem all that was lost and merging together the unsaved with the saved to lead them to Him!
Lift up your heads O you gates; be lifted up, you ancient doors, that the King of glory may come in. Who is this King of glory? The LORD strong and mighty, the LORD mighty in battle. Psalm 24:7, 8
Suddenly I see and hear visions of Martin Luther King Jr. From black and white visions to full colors of restoration of all that was stolen, destinies being released upon his death. I am still being ushered in the wind of the Lord but no longer flying along the ceilings and walls but in another room made out of old wood, again age old as the Lord places me before a double door. I see, feel and hear darkness but the Spirit of the Lord is still so strong upon me, within me, that all I can do is hang on for the ride as the double doors fly open and I am ushered in.
"Return to the stronghold, you prisoners of hope. Even today I declare that I will restore double to you. Zechariah 9:12
He made darkness his secret place; his pavilion round about him were dark waters and thick clouds of the skies. Psalm 18:11 Woo hoo!!
I am now in an old theater but with modern dressed people and they are watching a film on the big screen. I am still being ushered in the wind of the Lord and being ushered along back of the theater and to the right side while at the same time a dark blue, ancient velvet curtain is being opened up revealing a new large screen on the back wall. It comes to my spirit as healing, refreshing, something NEW!
The blueness of a wound cleanseth away evil: so do stripes the inward parts of the belly. Proverbs 20:30
The Lord instructs me to turn off the current movie that is playing and turn on the new one on the back wall. I can hear people shouting and complaining but as the new movie begins and they literally have to turn completely around in their seats to see, there is a hush and playing on the screen is Jesus talking to them.
“I have gathered you together today so that I may show you the things that are shortly to come to pass, things that you would have never dreamed possible I am going to do. In order to truly see, you must let go of all that you have learned and allow Me to blow a new and refreshing wind into your heart, into your souls and renew your mind in Me! I am turning things completely around, I am even turning your thinking around and causing a great and holy wind to blow upon you, messing things up royally so that you see through My eyes, My heart, My ways! I am raising up in this hour a man that will take the White House by storm, an ancient storm that I have brought up, not man, to redeem all that has been stolen, My kingdom come, My will be done on earth as it is in heaven, a son of My right hand! You can not look with the eyes of man but with the eyes of My Spirit and just like I raised King Cyrus up to assist the returning Jewish exiles who were to rebuild the temple in Jerusalem so am I raising up a man who will open doors that no man will shut! I have positioned him to bring My kingdom come but I also have positioned him to receive My heart. Do not look at what you see in the natural but only through My eyes. I am calling forth My people to surround him in not only in the White House, but to surround him in love and prayer, people that I have ordained for such a time as this that will be able to see into the next Presidents heart and literally and spiritually change a nation! That which seems like a brutal wound will come forth My honey!
Suddenly across the screen flashes the word IDIOT and I hear cheers, laughter and spirits being awakened to what the Spirit of the Lord is doing in this hour. And the Lord said: 'Are you willing to be an idiot for Me?!'
The word 'idiot' in the bible is the Greek word 'idiotes.' (in the NT, an unlearned, illiterate, man as opposed to the learned and educated: one who is unskilled in any art.) It is word 'ignorant' below.
“Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were unlearned and ignorant men, they marvelled; and they took knowledge of them, that they had been with Jesus. Mark 4:13
The laughter turned into a holy and hushed unity that one become unlearned, untrained, to let go of what we think we know in order to enter into what Holy Spirit is doing. I heard the word of the Lord in Ezekiel and the word 'then' hit my spirit like a lightning bolt of revelation to receive all that the Lord is saying is this messy but divine hour of God.
"Therefore say: 'This is what the Sovereign LORD says: I will gather you from the nations and bring you back from the countries where you have been scattered, and I will give you back the land of Israel again.' "They will return to it and remove all its vile images and detestable idols. I will give them an undivided heart and put a new spirit in them; I will remove from them their heart of stone and give them a heart of flesh. Then they will follow my decrees and be careful to keep my laws. They will be my people, and I will be their God. But as for those whose hearts are devoted to their vile images and detestable idols, I will bring down on their own heads what they have done, declares the Sovereign LORD." (Ezekiel 36z0
The Spirit of the Lord says that He is raising up a man in this hour with the anointing of Cyrus and from a place of darkness will come forth My jewels, for My light will break open wide the ancient gates and set My people free! Do not despise what appears to be unholy, do not wear the robe of jealousy and stubbornness but choose to wear the robe of humility for such a moment, a kyros moment in time as this!
“Now in the first year of Cyrus king of Persia, in order to fulfill the word of the LORD by the mouth of Jeremiah, the LORD stirred up the spirit of Cyrus king of Persia, so that he sent a proclamation throughout all his kingdom, and also put it in writing, saying: "Thus says Cyrus king of Persia, 'The LORD, the God of heaven, has given me all the kingdoms of the earth and He has appointed me to build Him a house in Jerusalem, which is in Judah. 'Whoever there is among you of all His people, may his God be with him! Let him go up to Jerusalem which is in Judah and rebuild the house of the LORD, the God of Israel; He is the God who is in Jerusalem. 'Every survivor, at whatever place he may live, let the men of that place support him with silver and gold, with goods and cattle, together with a freewill offering for the house of God which is in Jerusalem.' Ezra 1:1-4
"Thus says the Lord to His anointed, to Cyrus, whose right hand I have held--to subdue nations before him and loose the armor of kings, to open before him the double doors, so that the gates will not be shut: 'I will go before you and make the crooked places straight; I will break in pieces the gates of bronze and cut the bars of iron. I will give you the treasures of darkness and hidden riches of secret places, that you may know that I, the Lord, Who call you by your name, Am the God of Israel.'"Isaiah 45:1-3
Cyrus derived via the Greek word 'kyros' ( An appointed time. An opportune time. A kyros moment is a window of opportunity.)
