As I sat down to write this art reflection, I remembered that James Nesbit takes prophetic words that have been released to the church by recognized prophetic voices of our day. I was inspired to look at the artwork notes and to my delight it did give information about the prophetic source. The word had been released at an Appeal to Heaven conference by a Tim Sheets, a Pastor in Middletown Ohio who is the older brother of the more well known minister Dutch Sheets. I decided to spent the $1.99 to download Tim’s message to see what inspired this image. Please see the links posted above. 

Acts 2, the very first Pentecost. It is the very first gathering of “the church”. They wait together as Jesus instructed. They wait to receive the power He promised he would send them. This day is the coronation day of Jesus. It is 50 days after passover.  Looking back in history, Moses was given the commandments written on stone fifty days after the first Passover. Now fifty days after the crucifixion, which happened during Passover, Jesus gives the Holy Spirit and the commandments are not written on stone this time but upon our hearts, fulfilling Jeremiah 31:31-34.  

In heaven, He sits down upon the throne and the Father takes a horn of oil and pours it over his head as described in Psalm 133. How precious it is to him when His church walks together in unity. In Acts 2 the Holy Spirit is released as that anointing oil flows from his head on to his body the church at that time with great signs and wonders. He is seated so that oil pools in his lap. In Acts 7 when Stephen is being stoned for boldly proclaiming the truth we see Jesus for the first time as The Standing King. The oil once pooled in his lap splashes down to his people releasing an even greater outpouring of His Spirit to his body the “Church”. Tim believes now is the time of the Standing King.

In this artwork by James Nesbit we see the King is no longer seated but is now standing. On his thigh is written King of Kings and Lord of Lords. He wears the breast plate of the High Priest with the stones representing the twelve tribes of Israel. He holds scepter in one hand and his other arm is strong and mighty. Behind him is the throne and he is surrounded by glory as He releases the Holy Spirit dove along with the angel star host to move in His authority and power. I transcribed the actual prophetic word given by Tim Sheets to share with you. As you look at this art work I pray God will profoundly speak to you both through the image and through this prophetic word. 

“The Lord of Hosts says to the remnant warriors of the triumphant reserve. I said it is finished not I am finished. I am not finished. I finished redemption for sins on the cross but I am not done. I am not done with my church. No, I will now finish building my church. It will be glorious. It will be without spot or wrinkle. It will reign in my name. It will not be intimidated, scared or confused, bewildered, tepid or spineless. I am not done. I am not near done. 

I‘ve got much to finish and I will now finish it. I have saved the best wine for your times. I will now finish the releasing of out pouring, after out pouring, after out pouring, after out pouring of my power and anointing revealed in my manifest presence. The World will now see my power manifest and released on my triumphant reserve. My glory will become demonstrably real in your times. From glory, to glory, to glory to glory. I’m not finished. I am not finished says the Lord. 

I’m not finished healing blind eyes. I’m not finished opening deaf ears. I’m not finished restoring crippled limbs. I’m not done reaping the harvest of the end of the age. I’m not finished saving the lost, setting the oppressed free, or delivering captives. I’m not done with Muslims says the Lord. I’m not done with Hindu’s. I’m not done penetrating the nations with the gospel. I’m not done with alcoholics. I’m not done with drug addicts. I’m not done delivery the bound. I’m not done removing lust and perversion from those who are wounded, broken and lost. I’m not done setting homosexuals free. I’m not done setting lesbians free. Im not done setting adulterers free. I’m not finished with gay marriage. I’m not finished with abortion. I am far from finished! 
I’m not finished says the Lord, with America. Im not finished with the World. I’m not finished with my Kingdom on this earth which means….
You’re… not… finished!
My church is not finished. My Ecclesia will now bind hell. My Ecclesia is not done binding hell. It is not done standing for my Word without compromise. It is not done confronting demon doctrine. It is not done confronting rebel governments. It is not done confronting rebel kings, dictators, presidents and evil dignitaries.  My reigning church is not done prevailing over the gates of Hell. It is not done promoting righteousness. It is not done preaching my Word without compromise. It is not done prevailing over principalities and powers and mights and dominions. It is not done salting the earth. Lighting up darkness. Reversing evil laws and treading on demons. Preaching hope and preaching deliverance to the captives. It is not done reaping my harvest of lost men and women, boys and girls. It’s not done discipling the nations. My church isn’t done when the government says its done. It’s not done with the President says its done. It’s not done when the media says its done. It’s not done when professors say its done. It’s not done when the IRS says its done. It’s not done when hireling shepherds say its done.  It’s not done when the supreme court says its done. Its done when I say its done and I say You’re…not… done!
Occupy till I come. Take care of my business. It is finished but I am not finished!
Focus on what I say and let that settle the issue. “


Edited Version of The Standing King
 This art reflection is an excerpt from my blog post titled The Standing King. If you would like to read the whole thing please see me after the service. 

 James Nesbit takes current prophetic words and creates digital images. I was inspired to look at the artwork notes for information about the prophetic source. The word had been released at a conference by a Tim Sheets, a Pastor in Middletown Ohio

Its fifty days after passover in Acts 2, the disciples are gathered for the first time as “the church”. They wait together as Jesus instructed. They wait for the power He promised he would send them. This day is the coronation day of Jesus. This is the day that Jesus sits down on his heavenly throne as King of kings. Looking back in history, Moses was given the commandments fifty days after the first Passover. Now fifty days after the crucifixion, Jesus gives the Holy Spirit and the commandments are not written on stone this time but upon our hearts, fulfilling Jeremiah 31:31-34.  

In this artwork by James Nesbit we see the King is no longer seated but is now standing. On his thigh is written King of Kings and Lord of Lords. He wears the breast plate of the High Priest with the stones representing the twelve tribes of Israel. He holds Kings scepter in one hand and his other arm is strong and mighty. Behind him is the throne and he is surrounded by glory as He releases the Holy Spirit along with the host of angel stars to move in His authority and power. I transcribed the prophetic word given by Tim Sheets to share with you but I have shortened it for time sake. The full word is in my blog post.  As you look at this art work I pray God will profoundly speak to you both through the image and through this prophetic word. 

“The Lord of Hosts says to the remnant warriors of the triumphant reserve. I said it is finished not I am finished. I am not finished. I finished redemption for sins on the cross but I am not done. I am not done with my church. No, I will now finish building my church. It will be glorious. It will be without spot or wrinkle. It will reign in my name.

I’m not finished healing blind eyes. I’m not finished opening deaf ears. I’m not finished restoring crippled limbs. I’m not done reaping the harvest of the end of the age. I’m not finished saving the lost, setting the oppressed free, or delivering captives….
I’m not finished says the Lord, with America. Im not finished with the World. I’m not finished with my Kingdom on this earth which means….
You’re… not… finished!

My church is not finished… It is not done standing for my Word without compromise. It is not done confronting demon doctrine. It is not done confronting rebel governments. It is not done confronting rebel kings, dictators, presidents and evil dignitaries.  My reigning church is not done prevailing over the gates of Hell. It is not done promoting righteousness. It is not done preaching my Word without compromise. It is not done prevailing over principalities and powers and mights and dominions. It is not done salting the earth.

My church isn’t done when the government says its done. It’s not done with the President says its done. It’s not done when the media says its done….It’s not done when hireling shepherds say its done.  It’s not done when the supreme court says its done. Its done when I say its done and I say You’re…not… done!
