I once heard a testimony where the Holy Ghost was falling upon the people during worship. The preacher testified how the piano player got so filled with the Spirit that she fell off of the piano bench and the piano kept right on playing! No other explanation could be found except, “Jesus knows how to play a piano!”
I believe we are entering into a time and place of worship and praise that we will experience some unusual anointings upon musical instruments that will be played at times, with heavenly fingers! Either through His people, and sometimes without them. Heaven will invade even our so-called Spirit-led worship and we will soon discover that the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit just could wait no longer to join us with Heaven shouting….”We’ve come to worship!”
Highly Volatile Worship
I saw a fresh anointing, similar to the anointing that was upon David’s harp, being poured out upon musical instruments. This anointing was highly volatile, able to easily drive demons and strongholds out of whole regions. I sense the Lord speaking to many worship leaders who have become weary in trying to lead others into His presence. “Just worship Me and I will take you and your instruments to a whole new level to descend My throne and to drive out devils!”
Many Wind Instruments Will Sound As Though My Breath Is Blowing Through Them!
It was as though these angels with bowls full of the ‘oil of worship’ were being instructed on which instruments to start pouring upon. This depended upon the players and their intimacy with the Lord. I sensed the Father distinctively describing which instruments would bring the most devastation in the next phase of spiritual warfare...all of them! He was reminding the enemy also of these fatal weapons: “We do drumsticks, keyboards, stringed instruments, shofars and woodwinds. I also use hand clapping, shouting, and feet that dance upon your land mines!"
“These ‘Demon Buster' Musical Instruments Will Not Only Be Found In My House, But In the Streets, Concert Halls and Gutters of the World!"
It was not really in David’s own territory that the anointing of his harp drove away evil, but in the house of Saul! In the place where the Spirit of the Lord had departed, was where the anointing was the most powerful. For as long as David played on his harp, Saul was free from tormenting spirits. That gives hope to any God called musician in any church or place on the earth! You may not have to leave where you are. You may just get to drive the devil out of that place!
I Saw Drumsticks Striking Drums, Releasing Arrows Of Deliverance Into The Atmosphere Above!
Some drummers were weary and had even quit playing drums. But now the Lord was giving a new ‘war’ order to these weary ones. “Strike it one more time. You will no longer just play these drums, but they are now fatal weapons that you need to bring deliverance into your own life, family and region! Step on that bass drum one more time and you will soon find the enemy under your feet….this is a war order!”
Many Worn Out Musicians Were Being Called To Pick Up Their Harps Off The Weeping Willow Trees!
Many musicians were taken captive by the enemy to stop their worship and praise. The Lord was now calling many of these defeated ones to pick up their instruments again and play them in the midst of their defeats. They were discovering deliverance not only for themselves but multitudes were being led out of their captivity.
Let the music begin!

A Word For 2011 - It’s Time To ‘Hang Out Your Shingle!’
To ‘hang out your shingle’ means to begin working as a professional from your own office. A shingle is a small sign board that you put out to the public so that they can see it and know what you are available to do. It’s Time To Allow Yourself And Your Gift To Be Made Known. Matthew 25:26
Concerning the servant who buried his gift or talent in the ground. Matthew 25:26 (Message Bible) “The master was furious. That’s a terrible way to live! It’s criminal to live cautiously like that! The least you could have done would have been to invest the sum with the bankers, where at least I would have gotten a little interest. Take it and give it to the one who risked the most. And get rid of this ‘play-it-safe’ who won’t go out on a limb. Throw him out into utter darkness!”
I sense the Lord saying, “It’s time to allow yourself to be made known and come forth with the gifts and the talents that I have deposited inside of you for such a time as this. I have need of you. Your gifts are not for yourself, they are for others.” Don’t be so humble that you think if you put yourself out there and let yourself be known for what God has put in you that that would be prideful. That is nothing by false humility! Romans 12:13 says, “Do not think of yourself more highly than you ought.” The downside of this verse is that often too many of us think of ourselves too lowly than we ought to think.
Remember we are in Christ and Christ is in us. We are not lifting up ourselves but we are lifting Him up so He can draw all men unto Himself. When we hide our gifts and talents we often hide or bury ourselves with them. 2 Timothy 1:6 “Neglect not the gift that is in you.” I believe Paul was saying to Timothy, “Stir up your gift and make it available to others.”
2011- Many Will Discover Businesses And Entrepreneurships Being Birthed In Their own Homes!
The gift of ‘helps’ is always having the desire and ability to help others. I believe if we have the desire God will see to it that the ability will be there. I believe the gift of ‘helps’ of just wanting to help people will be the womb where creativity and revelation will conceive to birth many businesses and services that have been unheard of until now.
Go Out On A Limb And ‘Hang Your Shingle Out’ There….Out On A Limb Is Where The Fruit Grows!
Many who lost their jobs thinking they couldn’t exist without it will find themselves self employed and working for a King! When Jesus said, “I must be about My father’s business,’ I believe He was referring to meeting the practical needs of people as well as their spiritual needs. All work, whatever we think is secular or spiritual is the same to the Lord. It is all His business.
Go ahead. Hang out your shingle!
Blessings,

Prayers And Priorities Will Change In 2011
Priorities seem to change almost daily in my life the older I get. I think the older we get the more we realize what really is important in the light of eternity. My priorities have now come to a screeching halt. I just can't seem to get my wife, children and grandchildren off of my mind and my love is ever increasing for them. Oh, yes, I love God, but my family is now running in second place behind Him and my ministry is now last. Don't tell God this, but I wish I could retire and just love my family until I meet Jesus face to face. Of course I will still minister with my calling but I have to tell you how my prayers and priorities are changing in my life and how they are changing me. Before you think I am gone a little crazy, I need to tell you that I believe this gut feeling I have is from God Himself for this coming year and maybe for eternity.
Bringing Home The Gold In 2011
I sense the Lord saying, "It's time to call forth some of my most powerful intercessors on earth to release My power in unprecedented ways that have not yet been seen - the prayer power of agreement between a husband and wife. Could it be that when Jesus spoke of His house becoming a house of prayer that He was referring to your house and mine, right where we live. I believe He was speaking to the very core of His church - husbands and wives who were destined to show forth His love and glory to a lost world.
In the Spirit I saw valleys of decisions coming towards our nation, our families, and communities. These decisions that needed to be made soon would affect not only our own lives but the lives of generations to come. I then saw the enemy releasing friction between husbands and wives because of these landmark decisions. He feared and knew that their coming together in agreeing prayer would dethrone the influence of his kingdom from their lives, families and nation.
Family Altars Of Prayer Will Be Erected In 2011
Ezra in the time of trouble seemed to focus on the welfare of the families of Israel that would ultimately be the deliverance for his nation. If God could save a family, the family could save a nation! Ezra built an altar at the river of Ahava.
Ezra 8:21,31 "Then I proclaimed a fast there at the river of Ahava that we might afflict ourselves before our God, to seek of Him a right way for us, and for our little ones and for all our substance. 31. Then we departed from the river of Ahava on the twelfth day of the first month to go onto Jerusalem: and the hand of our God was upon us and he delivered us from the hand of the enemy and of such as lay in wait by the way."
I believe the mounting troubled times are about to drastically turn our hearts toward God and a whole lot more towards our families. Troubled times and economic problems often separate marriages and families but I see that God is going to use them now to bring marriages and families closer together. Families will once again pull together through prayer to get through tough times as we look to the Lord to deliver our families and nation from the hand of the enemy. I will never forget seven years ago when I laid in the emergency room with an attack against my heart. Our family experienced an explosion of love for each other that we had never had before. It will be proven once again that true ministry will come forth out of our family relationships. Not that our relationships are always perfect in our families but because God knows we are esteeming them above our ambitions for ministry outside the home.
Did You Ever Wonder Why Jesus Performed His First Miracle On Earth At A Wedding Feast? Perhaps He Knew That Was Where It Would Be Needed The Most.
Did you know that when God brought you and your spouse together that He knew that you would need a miracle? In fact if you don't need one in your marriage there is possibly something wrong. Couples in the Bible who had the greatest destiny seemed to face the greatest impossibilities in their marriages. Abraham and Sarah couldn't conceive and became unfulfilled. They both through painful experiences learned that they needed more than each other and another third party ( Hagar ) to have their fulfillment in life.
Zachariah and Elizabeth also discovered a barren place in their marriage. Zachariah was serving as a priest in the temple and had the greatest experience of his life. An angel gave him a word about his destiny of having John the Baptist as a son. Then in Luke 1:23 "As soon as the days of his administration ( duties in the temple ) were accomplished, he departed to HIS OWN HOUSE." Then his wife, Elizabeth, who was barren conceived. I believe us men today in the temple or ministry are being called by God to return to our own houses, to our own perhaps 'spiritual' barren wives. Not until we men of God learn and experience spiritual intimacy with our wives, so they can spiritually conceive, can we as couples fulfill God's purposes for marriage and His kingdom in bringing forth a Godly seed that will shake the foundations of the nations!
Your Seed Will Speak With The Enemy In The Gate This Coming Year! Genesis 22:17
Genesis 22:17 ( Message Bible ) “Your descendants will defeat their enemies.”
The enemy is about to hear from our children and grandchildren beginning this coming year. Watch and expect the passion for Christ to run wild like a raging fire inside of them. The Lord has placed them in strategic locations in the earth and even in some unusual places where we might think they shouldn’t be. Even in prisons, homeless on the streets, or wherever they are being held in satan’s grip, they have now been divinely positioned to become a firebrand in God’s hand to ignite and explode like dynamite inside the camp of the enemy! This is why the enemy forever has fought against marriages. He feared concerning the Godly seed that was about to come upon the earth to do him in!
In 2011 - They'll Be Less Of 'Me, Myself And I' In Our Prayers!
I believe this coming year we will see more of Malachi's fulfillment as 'the hearts of the fathers are turning to their children and the hearts of children are turning to their fathers.' I believe we as men of God will find ourselves praying for our families more than anything else. Love will find its way home beginning 2011. A song by Tracey Adkins titled "That's all I ask for anymore" seems prophetic to me for us men of God at this time in history.
"But when I bow my head tonight, there'll be no 'me, myself and I'. Just watch my wife and kids please Lord. That's all I ask for anymore."
"Let them outlive me by a hundred years. Let their laughter dry up all their tears, let them love and be loved back like I have been."
In 2011 - God's Love Will Hit And Explode In The Bulls Eye Of A Nation - Our Families!
I sense a releasing of 'household salvation' angels setting up camp round about our dwelling places to deliver whole families. I believe before Jesus returns that we will experience an unprecedented outpouring of household salvation upon the earth. Get ready to bring home the gold!
Dear Friends,
Your prayers and love have blessed our family in every area. There are times in my ministry travels that I actually feel your prayers. Without you we would never make it through these challenging times. But God has surrounded us with a great cloud of witnesses which you are a part of. Thank you for being family to us. We pray your whole household will experience God’s presence and know His great love that casts out all fear.
We love you all,
Bill and Dagmar Yount & family
