Lift Up A Roar!

When you begin to speak WHAT the Word says ABOUT YOU, and WHO YOU ARE, and the power and authority YOU HAVE as a child of God - not from the place of your MIND (from your head, just giving those truths mental agreement), but fully from your HEART, your inner-most being, YOUR SPIRIT - THAT is when it will WORK and MANIFEST for you! Don't just be a mental-assent Christian, but a Holy Spirit power-filled Christian! That’s what the Word says! God has given us His Holy Spirit and His mighty power, His love, and His revelation light! To be power-filled is simply to acknowledge and SPEAK FROM YOUR SPIRIT what is already true! Then, when you bind and loose, permit and forbid, command and apply the Word, by faith, IT WILL BE DONE!  Contending For Revival & Awakening! Helen Utegaard

It’s time to start FIRES - FIRES OF THE PRESENCE AND POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT!  I keep hearing this in my spirit: It's time to start fires, fires of the Holy Ghost!  When God‘s people come together and pray and praise, and PRAY, and PRAY, and PRAY, they will stir up the fire of the Holy Ghost in them, individually and corporately! It will soon come over them and all around them! They will start a fire right there - a fire of the presence, power, and glory of God! This is how revivals and awakenings began throughout history. Whether it’s two or three praying together, a group praying, a Bible-study group praying, or a Church or ministry praying, it's time to start fires - fires of the Holy Ghost - all over this nation and the world! After receiving the baptism of the Holy Spirit, I was told by a traveling minister to gather a few hungry believers, and meet together in my home and begin to praise and worship, pray in the Spirit, and sing in the Spirit UNTIL SOMETHING HAPPENS! AN...

We, the Church, were created and called to be living organisms of the kingdom of God, of His presence, and of His power! His kingdom is to be in expansion mode! There is not to be anything stationary about the Ekklesia, because there is nothing stationary concerning our Father and His kingdom. If expansion and increase are not happening in a church, ministry, or a believer, then they will begin to shrivel up. They're either in forward movement or backward movement, especially in these days that we are in!  Acceleration is here! The kingdom is expanding at a mighty pace! It is all of the Spirit. Acceleration is in and of the Spirit of the living God, and that is where we must be found - in His Spirit, His Presence, and His power - working WITH HIM, moving WITH HIM, revealing WITH HIM, expanding WITH HIM! The Ekklesia is called to be a glorious manifestation of Christ and His kingdom!  As we yield to and press in the Spirit, pressing against the forces of darkness that woul...

Psalm 122 (AMPC, emphasis added) I was glad when they said to me, Let us go to the house of the Lord! Our feet are standing within your gates, O Jerusalem! -- Jerusalem, which is built as a city that is compacted together -- To which the tribes go up, even the tribes of the Lord, as was decreed and as a testimony for Israel, to give thanks to the name of the Lord. For there the thrones of judgment were set, the thrones of the house of David.  PRAY FOR THE PEACE OF JERUSALEM! MAY THEY PROSPER WHO LOVE YOU [THE HOLY CITY]! May peace be within your walls and prosperity within your palaces! For my brethren and companions' sake, I will now say, Peace be within you! FOR THE SAKE OF THE HOUSE OF THE LORD OUR GOD, I WILL SEEK, INQUIRE FOR, AND REQUIRE YOUR GOOD.

"Pray without ceasing." (1 Thess. 5:17) #PWōC ASSIGNMENT: PRAYER STORM 2026! Uproot! Pull down! Destroy! Overthrow! BY THE POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT - THE FIREPOWER OF PRAYER!  Not by might, not by power, but by my Spirit!   (Zech. 4:6) Contending For Revival & Awakening! Helen Utegaard

Prophetic Word given to me for 2026. I will be sharing new insights and revelations concerning this word throughout this year - as it is AN ASSIGNMENT! Contending For Revival & Awakening! Helen Utegaard “From the west to the lands of the rising sun, the glory and the name of Yahweh will be held in highest reverence, for he will break in as a flooding, rushing river driven on by the breath of Yahweh!”  (Is. ‭59‬:‭19‬ ‭TPT‬‬) I heard the Spirit of the Lord say, AGAIN, to me concerning this year:  "I am releasing a Prayer Storm - a storm of My presence and power and glory! I have come, not only to expose, but to uproot, destroy, and overthrow the works of darkness, injustice, and unrighteousness in this nation! My people have been crying out! Prayer, prayer, prayer, will be the fuel that My Spirit will work its power through! "My storm is a storm of My wind, My breath, My Words spoken, and My power released!  The anointing and fire of My Spirit, when released, will burn ...

KENTUCKY On our prayer drive in November of 2025, my team and I drove around and stood on the grounds of the State Capital Of Kentucky. We prayed Spirit-filled, Spirit-led prayers and authoritative decrees, declaring  that,  "Jesus is Lord over Kentucky, and Kentucky belongs to Jesus!" "THE AUTHORITY OF THE NAME OF JESUS causes every knee to bow in reverence! ...and every tongue will proclaim in every language: "Jesus Christ is Lord..." (Phil. 2:10-11 TPT, emphasis added) Let's contend together in prayer for Revival and Awakening! Helen Utegaard & LMI Team

If we remain abiding in God's Word, and allow His Word to abide in us and let HIS SPIRIT live big in us and flow continually, then you and I will always be able to spot the counterfeit! I heard many years ago that diamond jewelers are taught to study the genuine, and only the genuine, in order to spot counterfeit diamonds. So it is with God and His kingdom!  We are to stay and abide in the light, continually, and darkness will not prevail against us! Selah. Contending For Revival & Awakening! Helen Utegaard

MINNESOTA During our PRAYER DRIVE, praying across the nation from FLORIDA TO MINNESOTA in November, 2025, we also prayed at the state capital - anointing, decreeing, and declaring that,  "Jesus is Lord over Minnesota, and Minnesota belongs to Jesus!" "THE AUTHORITY OF THE NAME OF JESUS causes every knee to bow in reverence! ...and every tongue will proclaim in every language: "Jesus Christ is Lord..." (Phil. 2:10-11 TPT, emphasis added) Let's contend together in prayer for Revival and Awakening! Helen Utegaard & LMI Team

The Holy Spirit spoke to me in 2015 to pray for President Trump‘s campaign and presidency after God revealed that His hand was upon him. Then the Holy Spirit spoke to me during Trump's inauguration on January 20, 2017. He said, "I am assigning you to stay close to him in and through prayer, to cover him with My Spirit, to pray and release My protection over him and his family, continually. I want you to enforce the anointing that is upon him, continually...stay close to him in the Spirit!" HE GAVE THIS AS A MANDATE, AN ASSIGNMENT, THAT WE WERE TO FOLLOW, OBEY, AND DO, AS A MINISTRY! We ENFORCE the anointing upon President Trump’s call and assignment through the words of our mouths - agreeing with God and speaking forth decrees - and also by our Spirit-filled prayers that must go forth, continuously - prayers without ceasing! Praying in tongues, prayer without ceasing, is the victorious work of the Holy Spirit. We are to direct those prayers, and as we do they will prevail...

Jesus turned over the money tables and took out His whip and drove them out, declaring, "My house shall be a house of prayer!" Prayer, in its purest form, releases the kingdom of Heaven, and the kingdom of Heaven drives out devils and demons. The kingdom of Heaven does not tolerate the devil, demons, or the kingdom of darkness. Other things were going on in the temple replacing prayer, the worship of God, and God meeting the needs of the people.   Could it be that there was impurity and it was affecting the prayers? Those who were in there were tolerating the evil that was in the very temple of God, and even if they were praying and worshiping, they were still  tolerating . There may have been some who were grieved and were praying from a sincere and pure heart, but much of the priesthood was obviously  tolerating . Jesus knows that the power of prayer in its true, pure form - its true essence - is demon removing, kingdom of darkness demolishing, and authority of Hea...

As I sit this morning in prayer, I keep seeing Jesus turning over the tables of the money changers.  (Mark 11:15-17) This is THAT HOUR for the Ekklesia of Jesus Christ in the earth. When the Church cries out for awakening and glory - for the manifested presence and power of Jesus - HE arises and confronts all that offends Him, offends the Father, offends the Holy Spirit, and offends the kingdom of Heaven! He cleans out the temple! He turns over the money tables! He takes out His whip and goes after them, AGGRESSIVELY driving them out! JESUS IS AGGRESSIVE TOWARD THE DEVIL! HE DOES NOT TOLERATE THE WORKS OF THE DEVIL, AND HE TELLS YOU AND I TO DO THE SAME!  “Jesus approached and, breaking the silence, said to them, All authority (all power of rule) in heaven and on earth has been given to Me. Go then and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them into the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, Teaching them to observe everything that I have commanded yo...
