Seek the Pure Waters!

Waterford!
It's time to seek the pure rivers of living water.
The other rivers have all run dry.
The land without God is barren and empty.


Counterfeits are exposed.
False promises of peace have run dry.
Only the true Spirit of God will give life and satisfy your soul.

Waterford! 
Let God fill your heart.
Allow Him to cleanse you within and wash you without--
To fill your heart and mind with Himself.


Be a place where He loves to dwell.


"Ho! Every one who thirsts,
come to the waters;
And you who have no money
come, buy and eat.
Come, buy wine and milk

without money and without cost."
Isaiah 55:1

Prophetic Word for Waterford Michigan

June 4, 2016
Rose Murdock

There’s been a shift, there’s been a breakthrough in the realm of the prophetic in Waterford. The enemy has been trying to keep the prophetic sensitivity dulled. But there’s been a shift, there’s been a breakthrough. Once this kind of breakthrough happens, then the prophets can prophecy. There will be prophecy that occurs, and the apostolic, along with the rest of the ministry gifts, will be able to function as they need to.

There is a prophetic awakening occurring now in Waterford. The prophetic is coming to life. The prophetic is waking up. Wake up prophets! Oh wake up, oh prophets, and begin to prophesy over Waterford! Wake up worshipers, and begin to worship in Waterford! There is this prophetic awakening going on now, and we will prophesy to the land.

Waterford is called to be a place of refreshing, revival, renewing. “RE” meaning it’s a return, a revival of God’s people. A return of those people, or those things which have fallen away, or been lost, to be restored.

There will be an evangelistic move in Waterford, but first there is a call for God’s own people to return to Him. His people have fallen under this lulling, this sleeping, and it’s time to wake up. There is an awakening that is occurring in Waterford, as the prophets prophecy. It encourages the people to build the wall. Those who have been weary will rise again.

God is proclaiming that He is going to do this. But it doesn’t mean that we sit back and say, ‘O let’s sit back and watch what God does.’ We have to partner with Him, make these proclamations, add our faith. We need to agree with You, we need to agree with the Lord and we will go out with joy and we will be led forth with peace.

What’s happening is affecting Waterford, the breakthrough that has occurred is in Waterford. However, Waterford is the center of Oakland County, and as it busts loose in Waterford, it will ultimately affect Oakland County. Oakland County will also affect the entire state. Water—ford is very strategic in God’s plan. Water-ford it’s the place of crossing over the water. It’s where we cross like they crossed over the Jordan and the Red Sea. We cross over the realm of the Spirit, into the spiritual realm that He has for us.

Some of the lampposts, some of the lights are broken down and in ill repair, dusty and that sort of thing. But God is waking up His people in waves so that there’s those who can minister as each new wave begins to awaken. There are those prepared ahead of time to minister to them. If He woke up the whole body of Christ at once we would all be stumbling around a little bit, looking for what to do, but God is beginning to sound the alarm. Which means “all arms”, all arms come alive, come awake, come alert. And we are coming alive and alert, as each wave wakens up to the things of the Spirit, we are able to help those who are coming into an awakeness and an alertness themselves. So this awakening that’s coming to the body of Christ is doing so one wave at a time, one wave at a time, so that there’s those who have gone before to prepare the way, to help them in their transition.

God is looking for those who will prophesy with faith, boldness, confidence. Those who will prophesy hope. Those who can see into the realm of the Spirit and see what God is doing and use… any of the obstacles or whatever that they see …use intercession to come against whatever obstacles might be in that way. But God is looking for those who can persevere, and those who can see through the clouds of deception that the enemy would try and put up there, and see what God’s doing, what He wants to do. We have to get high up enough so we are above the clouds, and we can see what God is doing and not allow the distractions, the clouds of deceptive strategies of the enemy to interfere with our vision. It takes faith, it takes boldness and it takes single mindedness. This is not a time for double mindedness This is not a time for wavering, this is not a time to say, ‘well maybe God might…, I wish God might..’ This is a time to stand in faith and hear the heart of God and say ‘Yes, He IS doing this. This IS happening now.’ He is the I AM.

He’s calling for those who will go above and beyond. For those who will say I’m not going to do just enough to barely get by as a Christian. But I’m going to go above and beyond, I’m going to persevere I’m going to go the extra mile. I’m going to take up my cross daily. I’m going to give everything, my whole heart to Him in passionate worship.’ Where we get to the place where He is our only option. He is our only option. There’s no turning back. There’s no ‘what if?” There’s no plan B, there’s no contingency plans. But it’s just Him. He is my life. I am pursuing Him.

We’ve got to be willing to lay aside our preconceived thoughts and follow the wooing of the Holy Spirit. Even if it means a new path, even if it means a different way of doing things. And we will get there into His presence quicker than we thought. Surround yourself with those who are like-minded. With other prophetic people, with others who are seeking for this breakthrough and this insight and into the Spirit realm. Surround yourself with those people. Surround yourself with those people, and as you come together and do that, your gifts shall flourish together and become much more powerful. Not just to defeat the strategies of the enemy but to go forward in the power that the Lord has called you to.

It’s like a tree planted by the waters. When you come together and you put your roots down deep, you’re a tree planted by the waters, receiving that continual watering. There’s not a drought there, when you’re planted by the waters, there’s never a drought.


You’ve received your marching orders, now go do it. Go in the power of My love, and go with worship in your hearts. Expect the new. It’s not business as usual anymore. Dream, dream, dream and leave a trail of life behind you. Prime the wells through prayer, through praise, through prophecy.

Real Reviving



A religious spirit is not welcomed or allowed in Waterford. We shall not have a form of godliness without the power of God. The religious spirits that seek to oppress the young of our community, stifling their creativity and spiritual growth, demanding behavioral perfection, leading to a party spirit, rebellion and addiction, shall not prevail in Waterford. We oppose the lawlessness and psychic attraction that this would bring. We oppose the sympathy and compromise towards sin that this would bring.

Father God, pour out a fresh wave of Your Spirit on Waterford--upon the young and the old, the male and female, the rich and the poor, the religious and the righteous. Let freedom and creativity flourish. Let the apostolic ministry arise and create a safe atmosphere that welcomes creativity. Let the borders be strong, and the gardens flourish. We don't want perfection--fake plants that never grow, that are chemically preserved or artificial and plastic. We want creativity and growth, even if we must weed and be pruned. We want life!

Lord, we repent of religion, and come to You for relationship. We repent of rebellion and surrender to You by choice. We rise up courageously, trusting our lives to You. We'll not react to the spiritual oppression that has occurred towards us, towards this community, in a way that is contrary to Your Spirit. But we yield to You, embrace Your ways and cultivate the character of Your Holy Spirit in our lives.

Let the apostolic arise, let the prophetic arise, let the five-fold ministry gifts arise and work together in harmony, equipping and uniting the body of Christ. We turn from hypocrisy, from the form of godliness without the true. We turn from hypnotic influences which would lull us into sleep and dull our senses. We prophesy to the land of Waterford and say, 'your waters shall bring refreshing to many. The weary, the tired, the rejected and despised shall be renewed with new strength. Be free, be creative, be pure and be real.' Send Your refreshing rains upon this land, O Lord--renew, restore, refresh and revive!


2 Timothy 3:5; Acts 2:16-17; Galatians 5:22-23; Ephesians 4:11-15; Ezekiel 36; Psalm 68:8-9

Swells of Peace



"Let peace swell up within Waterford. The whole earth is filled with Your glory. I open my eyes to see it, to see You, and to see Your goodness. I open my ears to hear You and find comfort in the peace of Your voice.

I soften my heart so I may be consistently faithful, maintaining a constant desire for You at the bedrock of my being.

I rest in Your peace, not anxious or troubled, but full of gratitude and worship towards You. I rest in You, look to You, see You, and believe in You.

Raise up Your Shepherds O God, Your innkeepers--Your neighborhood prophets, teachers, evangelists and apostles. Let them be wells of life, wells of joy and peace, wells of hope, and of love.

Let the young people arise in boldness and courage to be uniquely Yours."

Isaiah 6:3, Matthew 13:1, Exodus 33:18-19, John 14:1-3, Romans 15:13

A New Season of Loving You and Our Neighbor



Holy Father, we love You with all of our heart, soul, mind and strength. We put You first above all. We do not love people more than You. We love people because we love You, and because You first loved us. We will not compromise with people if it means compromising You and Your ways.

Let Jesus Christ be revealed in our neighborhoods. Let the light of the glorious Gospel of Christ shine into the hearts of Waterford. Veils be removed, and blinders go from the minds and hearts of the residents. Churches--rise up and speak faith filled declarations of life over your region! Let the woven fabric of Christians in this community be mended and made strong, taking the form of Jesus Christ Himself.

Father God, we honor the positions of parenthood--fatherhood and motherhood. We do not despise these positions. We honor them as the high call that they are. We honor every child that has been conceived. We will raise them up with love and teach them Your ways, helping them in their own relationship with You.

We give diligence as we enter a new season with You, to clean out the old and prepare our hearts to plant the new, so we can be fruitful--honoring You in every area of our lives!

Master Builder and Architect



Father God, like Abraham, we are "looking for the city which has foundations, whose architect and builder is God." (Hebrews 11:10).

Be the Builder and Architect of Waterford! May the plans for this township be godly. Raise up the commercial property and business owners who will honor You in their livelihood. May the ungodly plans crumble, fail and lose financial backing, blowing away like dust.

Lord, expose the mirages and facades--the empty shells, the lifeless structures, even of those who appear religious or helpful, but really only offer false hope. May the true messengers of life and truth arise and speak hope and deliverance to those who need You to rescue them.

May all those in position of any kind of authority, who oppose You and Your ways of life, either turn away from darkness and to the light--Your Light--or be removed from their positions of authority.

Lord, protect our children. Protect them from deception and the indoctrination of those who oppose You. Reveal Yourself to them, even in dreams and visions--pour out Your Spirit upon them, so they can grow up knowing their purpose in this life, become equipped in that purpose and fulfill it!

May every church and every family fulfill their destiny.

A Taste of You!


"Lord, let the people of Waterford be filled with Your Spirit and experience a taste of You, so that nothing else will satisfy their hearts. Reveal the holy, ancient landmarks. (Proverbs 22:28). Your original plan and vision for this community. Recover and restore what was lost in that vision and plan. Show it to us! Reveal it to Your leaders, to the residents and business owners. Let the commercial property owners abide by this plan. Stimulate the roots so we can be fruitful for You.

"Rearrange the leaders and residents of the Township so everyone fulfills their call and position. Arrange us geographically according to Your purposes for us. We remember the people returned to their own city to be counted prior to the coming of the Lord the first time. (Luke 1:3).

"I speak peace over Waterford. Let us make peace with You as a township, country, state and nation. We don't settle for anything less than You. Restore the joy so life is not just something we tolerate. Interrupt us, so we remember You always! (John 14:27, Isaiah 61:4).
