Birthing Forth the Treasures of the Father's Heart


Book Description

Crystals are the vital missing link to the full armor of God. Crystals are the Father's gift healing, health, energy, wholeness, fruitfulness, grace, and protection. Jesus is restoring his name as the Rock and why he is "the Rock." The Lord wants to restore the truth about crystals and their original intent to bring forth healing, physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. There are so many truths and hidden treasure in the Word of God that people have overlooked in the Church, because they have not read the word for themselves, or just innocently forgot some of the things written in the bible, and just have been told stay away from crystals because it is witchcraft. Crystals are the vital missing link to the armor of God. We must remember that whenever Jesus or the Father compares themselves to something, it is better to research it. Do not just stay at the mindset that they are higher than these things. Recognize they are saying even what they do, or their benefits cannot compare unto them. There is much treasure to be revealed and hidden truths in the bible. The Lord gave me and my husband a prophecy that he was going to call us out of the Church to birth something new if we would let him, little did I know he was going to download to me the hidden treasures about crystals hidden in the bible and the revelation on how they fight for us and keeps us protected. Over the years, I kept asking the Lord, "Something is missing, why aren't my gifts flowing as they should, why are people getting delivered and then having to get delivered again." I remember I was going through a tough time, I was going through frustration, anger issues, bills were due, I was frustrated at myself and others while sitting down at Church, I recognized the anger and frustration I had and I was tired of it. I had a vision right before they called people to the altar. I had seen all these pretty gemstones and crystals on an ice cream cone. I said, "Father, I want to birth forth the treasures of your heart, but what I was saying was, "Father, I want to have the beauty of your gemstones and crystals." They were beautiful, and I recognized, me being angry and frustrated, made me look and feel ugly and dark on the inside. When I went to the altar for the altar call, the pastor said, "I see a rainbow of colors surrounding you and squeezing you like a mummy." I knew it represented the seven spirits of God, but little did I know he was birthing forth the different colors of the treasures (Crystals and gemstones) of his heart. I didn't realize the crystals help fight off negative energy (demons), I didn't think they help you physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually, and at the same time protect you depending on their function. When he told me to leave the Church I was at, during that time, he downloaded revelation in the scriptures about crystals and their benefits in the bible that has been in the word of God, that we overlooked. The bible talks about them even protecting us, you might ask, "Where are these scriptures at in the bible?" I'm glad you asked, it's within this book. In this book, you will see and know what the Lord was prophesying to the people in the word of God using the crystals in different scriptures. People are reminded of the rainbow is not only the promise that the Father won't flood the earth again, but also the rainbow releases the promises of God through covenant with the Father. People look up at the rainbow and question why their blessings and promises have not become manifested yet. In this book, you will find out why most people don't receive their full inheritances, covenant blessings, that the Lord releases through the rainbow. It will be shown and explained how to unlock and receive your full, inheritance, and blessings, and prayers through the rainbow with the use of crystals. I go over a few of my experiences with crystals through the Father through Christ the Living Rock. One thing for sure Jesus Rocks!
