Prophecy
of the Lord given to
Jose
Alvarez on 4/18/2000
I saw a Native American man severely wounded with a deep gashing
spear injury to the right side of his body.
I know from the Lord that right side represents the side of action and
activity. This I would gather could be
a reason why many Native believers still find it difficult to be active in
their faith. I then heard the words “
the devil” and looked up to see a white man.
I realized that to this severely wounded Native man as to probably many
others like him, the white man represented “a devil.”
Then I saw that God had placed in front of this man wide open doors
for him to go through, yet he was unable to go through them. He would get right up to the doors, but
something paralyzed him that simply made him unable to through them. It was the
severity of the wound that made it impossible for him to proceed. As he staggered through the roads of life I
saw him still captive in his mind and soul to the torturous path of the “Trail
of Tears.”
I then saw this Native American regard the white man first through
eyes of deep mistrust, then intimidation, afterwards inferiority, and finally
as a stern rebuker and corrector of what he the Native American was doing. It made no difference to the Native American
man if this white man was a lost sinner or a preacher. The concept was still the same to him. The Word of God was seen in this same light. Even at the appearance of Jesus, through the
stain glass windows of these painful bondages, the Native man beheld Him just
as he did all the others.
As God showed me all of this, I Jose became increasingly agitated
and confused exclaiming, “Lord what is the answer?”
The Lord then said to me, “ The white man, the white Christian
brethren, the one who caused the pain must now come and take the spear out of
his brethren’s side and minister healing to the Native American.
I then saw a white man, whom I believed was a believer come to the
right side of this Native man. However,
he was hardly visible. His motions were
so subtle, his presence was so transparent and almost invisible, that I could
hardly discern, feel him, or see him, in the prophecy. As I waited on the Lord, I almost missed
this white man ministering to the Native man as he suddenly became healed from
the paralyzing wound. The white man finished ministering to the Native man to
then vanish out of sight never to be seen again within the prophecy. Suddenly it was as if this Native man wakes
up, sees who he is and what he can become.
The pain is gone. The prophecy
finishes by him gazing at a white preacher and feeling no pain whatsoever by
his presence.
The presence of an almost invisible white man that comes by the
side of the Native man to minister to him is part of an ongoing message that
God has placed in my heart for more than two years.
When we ministered in Tuba City at the heart of the Dine Nation,
God’s message to the congregation was one of exhortation to become an active
and valuable part of Christ’s body fully operating in the gifting and callings
of Christ.
When God had us begin a Bible study to the Pueblo Nations of New
Mexico, His words to us were “Make this into a Bible study that will raise up
ministers amongst the Pueblo people.”
This prophecy had the same message. “Let the Native man be ministered to so that he may minister unto
Me.”
It is time for all Native believers to come into the fullness of
their callings and ministries.
Vitally important is the function of the Anglo brethren called to
serve the Native believer.
His role is apostolic. He
comes not to preach at the Native man.
He comes not to take the center stage while the Native believer sits
passively by. Those days are over.
The white brother or sister comes by the right side of the Native
believer. This is the role of the paracletes or comforter. He comes along side to help. He comes to be
reconciled to the Native brethren. He
comes to minister to him the healing and ministry that are needed. He must come as a servant; he must come to
lay down his life for the Native man or woman.
The Anglo brethren’s role is almost invisible, almost insignificant in
the eyes of man, though not of God. He
comes so that the Native believer can take the center stage. When his ministry
is over he steps back so that the Native man can shine and be all that he can
for the Lord. His ministry is one so
that that Native believer suddenly wakes whole and free and arises to take his
rightful place in God’s kingdom and destiny.
