Scripture: Genesis 15:1

Genesis 15:1 says, “After these things the word of the LORD came to Abram in a vision, saying, ‘Do not be afraid, Abram. I am your shield, your exceedingly great reward.’” Abram was tempted to be afraid, but God’s Word came to him saying, “I am with you, I will take care of you and I am your shield. There is nothing for you to fear.” Often the Word of the Lord comes at a time when we really need clarifying about what God is about to do. Last year, on December 12 at 4:44 AM, the Lord woke me up saying, “Look up the numbers!” I promptly went up to my library, found E. W. Bullinger’s Numbers in Scripture and discovered that four primarily signifies the creative, while 12, the date that it came, signifies completion or fullness. I began to assess the meaning of 444. It appeared that the message was God’s creative anointing is to be sought for 2012. I hesitate to release prophetic words based on subjective numbers without strong confirmation. The magnitude of a prophetic word requires strong confirmation. When the Lord gives us something in numbers, we should always ask for confirmation.
