Seven RRRRRRR’s
The Release of Apostolic Reparations (ROAR)
February 5, 2010
Seven
The number seven is significant in 2010 as it is also a biblical number of completion, as well as perfection.
Release
1. To set free as from confinement, work, pain, etc. 2. To let go, [to release an arrow]. 3. To permit to be issued, published, etc. Webster’s New World Dictionary (WNWD).
Reparations
1. a) making of amends 2. compensations, as for war damage (WNWD).
In late spring of 2009, I received seven words through a time of prayer that began with the letter R. Many of these have been confirmed in the release of numerous prophetic words since the beginning of 2010.
The primary emphasis from these specific words was on Restoration. Complete Restoration from the Lord will occur this year for those who will complete all issues from the last decade and move forward in the Kingdom.
In January, the Lord began to speak the word Reparations. Of course, in the natural, this word has been emphasized through the media for over a year. However, I believe the seven R’s are Supernatural Reparations (or compensations) that will be released to those who are walking through the processes necessary to complete the old and positioning themselves by the Spirit of God to move forward into the Kingdom of God in 2010.
The Lord has released a special grace for Repositioning to Receive these Reparations. This took place during the first of the year and will continue into 2010 for all those who desire it. In this year of double grace, all that is needed is to receive the repositioning through faith.
In keeping with the definition of Reparations (making of amends and compensation for war damages), I believe this word is specifically targeted to believers who suffered great loss as a result of spiritual battles fought during the last decade. These saints were earnestly seeking first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness. For whatever the reason, many were deeply wounded in battle and some broke rank. Some entered into a season of rest and recovery but were not completely restored. Others lost hope in the waiting process and hearts became sick and then hardened.
The time to rise up in faith is now. As by grace you were saved through faith, so you shall also receive these reparations. As you review the scriptures included with each word, allow the Holy Spirit to speak and reveal what is relevant to you at this time.
