The top five posts of 2012

As 2012 draws to an end I thought I would do a post with the top five most viewed posts from this past year.

Honorable Mention The Danielles are Arising 
This post is from this past month but has gotten a lot of attention over the past two weeks. I truly believe it is a 
Kairos word as God is moving mightily among the women of our generation.

5. From Porn Valley to Purity Valley
A brief word about how God is reforming the San Fernando Valley from the porn capital of the world to the purity capital of the world. I always get a kick out of the search terms that get people onto the post. I usually get a few people each week who are not looking for anything within the prophetic realm but something a lot more worldly.

4. Did God really tell me who I'm supposed to marry?
This was the second part of a three part series about how to wait and discern God's will for your future spouse. It was quite popular and got a lot of dialogue going.

3. Lessons from Isaac & Rebecca
The first part of my series on waiting for God's best.

2. The End of Lack & Hope Deferred
A recent word about how God is ending the draught that has been over many of our lives and realms of influence. A new season is truly upon us.

1. The Anointing of Esther
This post about Esther and her influence today got a lot of traffic towards the beginning of the year during the time of the Esther Call. God is truly raising up His Esthers. A great encouragement for all of us- both men and women.

The Coming Transference of Wealth

When Israel left Egypt they left with great amounts of gold and other forms of wealth. The Egyptians were so relieved to see them leave that they willingly gave their own personal jewelry. It was this wealth that was later used to build the vessels of the tabernacle. We see this again when the Israelites left Babylon- Cyrus gave them great wealth to rebuild the temple. When God's people break free from the pagan structure there is a great transfer of wealth that follows. This wealth is to be used both for the blessing of God's people and the building of God's house.

This year is going to bring a manifestation of the apostolic reformation. The apostles are going to be fighting against the religious spirit for the heart of the Church. For too long God's people have remained under the influence of the Jezebelic structure. Freedom is coming. The apostles will continue to wage war against this religious/Jezebelic structure. The Church must break free from this pagan influence. As we break free we will see a great transference of wealth.

God has called His people to be conduits of wealth. The Jewish people have always understood that wealth comes to the righteous. The Church has labored under the false delusion that wealth is somehow bad. God has called His people to bring all things into Kingdom dominion- this includes the wealth of the world. The most righteous men of the Old Testament were ones of great wealth. Abraham had several hundred fighting men on his payroll along with his great herds. We see examples such as Lydia, Theophilus, and Joseph of Arimathia in the New Testament as Kingdom people who bore wealth and influence.

God desires to raise up those who will not allow wealth, or the lack thereof, to control them. Instead they will control wealth as a Kingdom resource. In this coming age we will see many within the Church become millionaires and millionaires become billionaires. These stewards of wealth are those who pursue the face of God and His Kingdom above all else. The purpose of this wealth is to build God's house. The purpose of this wealth is to prepare a habitation for Him and to make His name great. I believe that much wealth will come to the prayer movement. We are going to see many more houses of prayer and presence arise throughout the earth. We will also see the houses of prayer start to truly administer and implement great programs of societal change. The houses of prayer will become the the epicenters of their cities as they take possesion of the spiritual gates.

But this transference of wealth all begins with the Church breaking free from the control of Jezebel. We have come under her spell and allowed ourselves to live underneath her structure. The Church must come back to the culture of the Kingdom and leave religiousity behind. We have to stop revisiting the false comfort of religious bondage every time we start to break free. We are like the Israelites who cried out for Egypt while they wandered the desert. We have to come into the fulness of our Kingdom identity and come into proper governmental alignment. When we do this we will see a transference of wealth the likes of which has not been seen since Solomon.

End of Year Partnership Needs


Can you believe 2012 is almost over? I can't believe it either... January 2012 seems like such a short time ago, yet so much has happened in this past year. In my last newsletter I gave an overview of everything that I am currently doing as a staff member with Radiance International Ministries. You can click over here to read it if you haven't already.

A few highlights of this past year:

I was able to be a part of the intercession team for TheCry Hollywood in which thousands of Christians from across the world gathered, in the Gibson Amphitheater, at Universal Studios to pray and bless Hollywood. This was a powerful time in which we cried out for Hollywood's true destiny to come forth and to repent, on behalf of the Church, abandoning our call to stand with Hollywood. The community of Hollywood was originally founded by a Christian to be an oasis of purity and the early filmmakers reflected Judeo-Christian values. God is calling Hollywood back to be that star to the nations and reveal His glory throughout the earth.

I was also part of the Saigu Campaign commemorating the 20th Anniversary of the LA riots. This was a great opportunity and I believe that we had some breakthrough as communities came together and attempted reconciliation.

This summer we had our very first training school here at the house of prayer and we had over 30 students gather for an intensive six week internship. We are still hearing testimonies of the breakthrough and equipping that we received during those six weeks.

In September we had our annual student summit for Movement 133. Over ninety students from about twenty different schools all gathered for a time of strategy and vision casting as we sought God's will for this school year. This is truly the year of the campus and we are seeing great things happen. Schools that never had a solid prayer meeting now have over a dozen students gathering weekly to pray and seek spiritual breakthrough on their campus. Other schools are seeing the fruit of years of intercession after not experiencing anything. Students are being delivered from demonic influences, others are coming to Christ for the first time. There is a mighty stirring on the campuses and this is just the beginning of the beginning.

Here in Hollywood we are seeing more and more singers, artists, musicians, and dancers coming into the house of prayer. All of the creative arts are now being expressed and used to bring the Lord worship and honor here in His house. We will be having a worship and creative arts school this January thru February to invest into the creatives within our city. I am blown away by seeing the creatives come into our house and to see their hearts. God is truly raising up a new breed of those who put God first and care nothing about their own glory.

God is doing great things and 2013 will be even better. My ministry is only possible due to the financial partnership with people like you. Would you please prayerfully consider partnering with me with an end of year tax deductible gift? I am also in need of those who can commit to a monthly partnership as well. And most of all, I covet your prayers.

One-time Needs
The end of the year gives many the opportunity to sow one time gifts for tax purposes. I am in need of approximately $3300 to cover end of year expenses as well as some other expenses so that I might start 2013 in the black. I am also trying to raise an additional amount of approximately $1000 to fund several ministry trips that I hope to make during 2013.

Other needs:
-Full-size foam mattress topper
-Gas cards
-Gift cards to Target, Ross, Amazon,
-External USB hard drive (one that doesn't require a power cable)

My mailing address is:
Matthew Prewett
PO Box 3693
Hollywood, CA 90078

If you wish your gift to be tax-deductible then please make your check out to Radiance International and put my name in the memo line. If you wish to give via credit card then you can go to our website and use our paypal link. Please put my name in the special instructions so that it will be directed towards me. If you would prefer for our accountant to contact you to run your card then please forward me your contact info so that I might have our accountant get in contact with you.


Monthly Partnership
As a full-time missionary, monthly partners enable me to focus on my ministry. I currently have a part-time sales job to supplement my income which helps but is challenging at the same time due to the amount of time I spend in ministry. Monthly partnerships enable me to better budget as well as maximize the time I spend in the prayer room, on the campus, and other ministry endeavors. Would you consider making a monthly commitment of $25, $50, $100 or any other amount? Most of my partners choose to have an automatic debit utilizing their credit card or checking account. If you can partner with me in this way then please reply to me and I can reply with logistics to set up monthly giving. All donations are completely tax-deductible.

The Danielles are Arising

God is raising up the spirit of Daniel and releasing it upon a generation of women. They are those who the world has marginalized and the religious church has disqualified. These women have been hidden in obscurity but the Lord has marked them for greatness. Daniel had to go through great horror before being exalted. Taken from his home, his identity as a man and a Jew was taken from him, his position as a noble was removed, but he never forgot who he was. The Danielles are those women who have suffered greatly but never forgot who they were in God. They have refused to let the world define them but have cried out that only God will be their judge.

This is their time! This is the time of the Danielles. God is calling for them to arise in victory and in power. God has heard their cries and He says that enough is enough. The time of victory and vindication is here. The Lord will judge their enemies and those who have come against them as He judged those who threw Daniel into the den of the lions.

Cry out for your moment. Cry out for a time of revealing. Daniel was faithfully hidden until it was his time. The Lord is going to give His Danielles solutions to problems. He will give them answers to riddles. He will pour out His wisdom upon them so that those around them will seek them out. The time of exaltation and the time to rule is here! No longer will the spirit of Danielle be held in captivity and bondage. No longer will the enemy torment the prophetic anointing within. The time of rising up is here!
