In the third month they began to lay the founda-tion of the heaps, and finished[them] in theseventh month.And whenHezekiah and the princ- es came and saw the heaps, they blessed the LORD, and his people Israel. 2 Chronicles 31:7-8 We have now entered the biblical month of Cheshvan ( ‫ ֶח ְׁש ַון‬in Hebrew), which is the eighth month of the biblical calendar, in the year of Ayin Dalet. This month is a vital point in the year that repre- sents a time of new beginnings, a time to forget the travail of the past and a time to receive anointing that activates you as an heir to the throne this year. We are in such an amazing time in history as God is in the pro- cess of restoring His glory in the earth. The month of Cheshvan is the second month of the peri- od of autumn, which comprises the three months of Tishrei,Cheshvan and Kislev. The three tribes corresponding to the months of au-tumn are Ephraim, Manasseh and Benjamin; who in the desert encampmentaround the tabernacle were situated to the west. Their joint camp wasknown as the camp of Ephraim, who’s name means “I shall be doubly fruit-ful”. Every year we have access to a double portion as we align with theLord during the autumn season. The month of Cheshvan is linked with He-brew letter Nun, which relates to Jesus as the heir to the throne, making 4

Michael & Latasha Ruegamer Ministers of the Gospel and Founders Our Mission Our mission is to help you achieve the fullness of your God given destiny. It is our desire to pursue the presence of God in order to see His visitation of revival and reformation in our city and our nation. We desire to see the glory of God manifested through signs, wonders and miracles as a result of His Kingdom com- ing into our midst. (Acts 3:19-21, Psalm 85:9-13) We acknowledge that we as Gentile be- lievers have received our heritage from God’s chosen people Israel.

We desire to help those who are oppressed achieve victory in Christ and empower them to walk in bless- ing. 8

When seeking the Lord about what 2015 wasgoing to hold, the phrasethat continued to runthrough my mind and heartwas … \"2015 —the year to see …be free … and live deeper ... on your knees.\" “I sensed 2015 would be a year of greater intercession for the people of God, living even deeper on their knees. The people of God will see the revelatory power that comes from intercession, and this will explode in greater ways and go hand in hand with \"sight\" being in- creased in the Body of Christ. “ 10

The Year to SeeI sensed that 2015 was going to be a year of seeing with greaterclarity, revelation, andwisdom. I also sensed thatthe people of God were go-ing to rise up with greatersight – sight of Him andthe mysteries and treasures of His Word, which was go-ing to bring great healing and breakthrough into notonly their lives but also into the lives of those aroundthem, and birth Kingdom keys for the world to unlockareas of society and culture, and to also advance theKingdom of God and see Him begin to take furtherground in the seven mountains of influence in society.I sensed the people of God were not only going to begin to be awakened to a greater revelation of Himand their identity and authority in Him, but also to beginto \"see\" with wisdom the \"answers for the world\", andespecially for world leaders.The stories of Joseph and Daniel were on my heart as they were positioned before kings and world (Continued on page 18) 11

Signs of the Times There are various doctrines regard- ing tribulation, rap- ture, and its relation to the church. No mat- ter your views in this matter, we know that we are seeing biblical prophecies fulfilled in this day and age. As welook at what is happening within the world, wecan see that the times are perilous indeed. Wesee plagues, famines, wars, and rumors of wars,nation against nation, and the Bride of Christseemingly sleeping or turning a blind eye to thesituations. It is as if the Body of Christ at largehas magnified certain issues, while others arebeing swept to the side. Abba has spoken manytimes to me ... “I know all, and I see all.” It was re-assuring to hear this when my heart has beenheavy with grief, because of all of the pain andsuffering that is going on in the lives of thoseboth near and far. 14

DEATH CAN BE BEAUTIFUL . . . I had a strong urge to- day to write. Usually, I wait until the warfare has run its course, but I know it was important toget this out. It was like when I woke up, I couldhear the ALL points bulletin going off. The titlestartled me a little bit. I began to think, —but it’snot. Then, I heard this part. “Without DEATHthere can be no resurrection.”Jesus CHRIST of Nazareth is the ONLY one whohas ever died and been resurrected. Even whensomeone else is resurrected, it is GOD who doesit. Ultimately JESUS in them is what is resurrect-ed. Let’s explain it this way. The word of GODsays, “We must be crucified in Christ.”Galatians 2:20(AMP)“I have been crucified with Christ [in Him I have sharedHis crucifixion]; it is no longer I who live, but Christ(the Messiah) lives in me; and the life I now live in thebody I live by faith in (by adherence to and reliance onand complete trust in) the Son of God, Who loved meand gave Himself up for me.” 20

The word of GOD is our lifeline as COGS. This means it should be present in ALL ways and areas of our lives. Someone called me a bible scholar recently. I thought. Huh? Because it is Je- sus in me Who is. THAT'S it for sure, that HE not only knows the Word but IS the Word. This means that as WE secure our- selves in HIM, and delve more in- to HIS food, the WORD, that WE will become the Word as well.The transformation that happens The world we live in now glamoriz-is, JESUS in us, can do what JESUS es evil. It even glamorizes death,walking the earth did before. In the which is NOT the purpose of thisword it states “As a child, I post. The purpose of THIS post isthought like a child.” He then said, to point out, that DEATH is beauti-“But then, I became a man and put ful in God’s eyes, because it is aaway childish ways.” step to resurrection.

M y name is Matthew. I have ap- proached many caskets in my life. Some I glanced at and some I walked by for respect of a friend. Some I stood by and cried. The one that has remained in my mind and heart is the one I found myself kneeling beside my mom holding her hand looking upon the lifeless body of my father. That was a day I will never forget. The screams that came from my mother echoed throughout my life. They haunted me to the point of frustration.I have also been to a funeral with a closed casket service. The nature ofhis death didn't allow us to see him face to face for the last time.One I remembered walking up to seeing his face covered with bullet holes. I haveheard many different cries. Some vibrating through my soul and some passed by.One day I will be lying in that casket. One day many will look upon my lifeless coldbody. One day the cries of my loved ones will be heard by many.What I have learned about the casket is that it is mainly for the living. They will bethe ones to deal with the burial and everything that comes with that process. Theywill be the ones that will look upon the lifeless cold body that is in there. They willbe the ones that will cry due to our departure. They will be the ones who will mournfor days, years and some for a lifetime.What I have also learned from my experience with caskets is how the one who diedleft. Whether it was a blessing or a curse. That my friend is totally up to them. Butmost importantly I learned that it's not the end of one'slife but the beginning of a life in eternal hell or Heaven.I my friend choose heaven.-Armando Aguinaga 25

(Continued from page 29) for visions to come to pass. I had to be cruci-fied to my old life. It was not easy. It was painful, butit was well worth it! There is beauty in the cocoonthat I could not see until God revealed it to me. Mywhole time in the cocoon, a transformation was tak-ing place. God was molding me and shaping me to bebeautiful like the butterfly. He was shedding my oldskin in order to apply new life found in Christ. Hehad to grow me, but He also had to protect me. Hedid this through keeping me in the cocoon. He re-stricted me from being released too premature. In-side this stage, God was transforming me fully. Godwould soon release me. Emergence of a butterfly isan awesome experience. They do this through break-ing the cocoon. The cocoon is a hard surface, so itwould take the butterfly to become strong....This is a perfect example of us. We spend manyyears in the cocoon. We are ready to bust it when itis time to emerge. This is because we are now maturein Christ. We are ready to soar high into the thingsGod has promised us. We bust the shell of the oldlife. We soar into the new life. Many of us right noware on the break of emergence. We are getting readyto split our cocoons and embrace our new life inChrist. God is getting ready to release many of us inthe unknown. We would not have been ready if re-leased prematurely. We would have fallen insteadof soaring. God loved us enough He kept us re-stricted in the cocoon. He molded and prepared usfor such a time a this. Get ready to soar like the but-terfly! God is releasing many of us from our co-coon. It is time for emergence into the new lifefound in Christ.Writing with Purpose for His Service,Broken and Restored,Ruby! (Continued on page 35) 34
