THE TRUMPET by Bill Burns — August 24, 2009:
I am the God of goodness, but also the God of severity. So I will test your heart so that it may be purified. I will come to you in this season to perfect those things concerning you that need perfecting. For I have chosen you to walk in a calling that is much higher than you can believe, a calling that is much higher than you can expect, a calling that will cause you to walk in the likeness of Jesus Christ and therefore in the faith and gifting that He walked in so that the scripture might be fulfilled that these works and greater works than these you shall do.
For now is the time of the judgment of My house where before the world itself is judged, My people must come to a place of purity and righteousness to exercise kingdom power and kingdom authority as My kings and priests. So let your heart be glad and lifted up with joy and peace before Me. For, the work that I am doing in you in this season is the greatest work of all. For that work is to call you to be Christ-like and to walk in the divine nature of My beloved Son. So rise up now and receive this opportunity to come to the new plateau, which you have yearned for. But I say, that you cannot come to this spiritual place without first being perfected. And that is the process that has been going on now for these three years, says the Lord.
I will continue to perfect those things that concern you, My people, so that you may gravitate to this high spiritual level that I have provided in this season where the house of the kings has been established. So come and renew yourself in Me today, says the Lord God Almighty.

SMALL STRAWS IN A SOFT WIND by Marsha Burns — August 24, 2009:
In a vision I saw a flock of birds who had settled in a field to eat when they were suddenly startled by a predator and scattered in all different directions both on the ground and in flight. And, I heard the Lord say that in much the same way the enemy has come to scatter the people of God. But, we are to regroup, watch and stand our ground. And, I was reminded of this scripture:
Nahum 2:1-2 He who scatters has come up before your face. Man the fort! Watch the road! Strengthen your flanks! Fortify your power mightily. For the LORD will restore the excellence of Jacob Like the excellence of Israel...
THE TRUMPET by Bill Burns — August 25, 2009:
The manifestation of the work that I’ve been doing will come to a place of perfection in the time of the blowing of the trumpets. Indeed the season for an announcement is coming. For when the heavenly host begin to blare their trumpets in the season of the Feast of Trumpets then you will be elevated to a new place if you will now begin to strive to enter in and come before My throne, says the Lord.
