To the Most ONE-derful People I Know!

Blessings to each of you on this blessed day 11-11!!!! Many of you know my many 1111 stories and have some of your very own. Therefore, it seemed appropriate to write an update to you today and stay in touch. Since the numbers 111 and 1111 began in the year 2000, I have called it the number of alignment…being in the right place at the right time… extended to being with the right people for the right purposes and doing the right thing. Just seems like a right number. It is the number of oneness, unity, and wholeness. The number 11 is regarded by some as the number of the paradigm shift… not 10 with its measure of fullness and not 12 and its meaning of Divine government. Eleven is a number of transition and some of us feel like we are stuck there in the midst of change. Some we like and some we don’t.

Such change happened last week with the election of Barack Obama. I do not and still do not feel he was the right choice. Like others, I felt the people demanded a king and they have elected one. Race was certainly the big issue and isn’t it interesting that the man who represented race relationships was Martin Luther KING. With respect to my black brothers and sisters in the church, I feel they erred in voting their race and ignored the liberal platform. I doubt Martin Luther King himself would have voted for Obama knowing his stance on abortion and same sex marriage.

I was grieved at the results and still remain saddened that many were so vulnerable and gullible. Too much has been exposed and covered up to enable Obama to charm his way into the oval office. Yet, I do believe God has a plan. The liberal media and press would have been a torment to McCain and Palin. Personally, I believe one of the ways the judgment of God comes is to let us have our way and reap the consequences of it. We’ll see what happens in the days ahead and just know that those who stood and voted for righteousness and the unborn are marked with favor and blessing in the midst of confusion and calamity.

For a long time I have felt the church needs a change in strategy. At times many are unnecessarily confrontational and it only strengthens the resolve and determination of the opposition. I believe we will find better results when we go undercover and underground, and come under the radar. Erosion happens underneath, not on the top fighting with the big boys. Now is the time to pray for the strategies needed and use the surprise power of secrecy and stealth. The church underground has untapped potentiality and does not need to wait for persecution. We can become the persecutors of the persecutors thru prayer and prophetic declarations and love.

Last week during the elections I spent several days near Mt Laurel/ Marlton, NJ with Pastor Jim and Shelly Mandel and their delightful church family. You can find their website at www.glorytothenations.org. We had wonderful meals together, including a night to a famous Brazilian steakhouse in downtown Philadelphia. I think I gained several pounds hanging out with that group.

Today as I write I am in Gettysburg/Chambersburg, PA. I was in the area last month when I spoke and returned this past weekend to participate in meetings with David and Becky Van Koevering. They are being hosted by several groups in the area and I have adjusted my plans to spend the entire week with them learning more about the quantum realm and how it relates to faith and healing. We have been having some awesome meetings and the interest and joy of discovery runs high. You can go to their website at www.elsewhen.com. I highly recommend their teachings and books and know you will be challenged and cheered as we learn about the true force of power behind what we see and say. I first met them two years ago when they spoke at a Quantum Leap conference in Coeur D Alene, ID and last summer was blessed to visit them in their home in Cleveland, TN. I greatly admire David and his knowledge and application to practical Christian living. And I especially admire Becky, his wife, for her courage and devotion to a sometimes “mad” scientist. You will be able to download some of their teachings from Elijah List. David is a quantum physicist and musicologist and has a collection of 200 instruments, old and new. He invented the original synthesizers and keyboards and holds 600 patents. It is rare to see a man of such brilliance also a humble follower of Jesus and lover of those he meets. We will also be talking more about the waters and the memory encoded in matter as I seek the Lord on understanding all that has been accomplished.

Yesterday, I was so excited to drive to Shippensburg, PA only 15 miles away and talk with Destiny Image Publications about writing and publishing my book(s). I will be doing lots of writing in the weeks ahead to meet some deadlines and publish the many stories of travel and His faithfulness. The lady I spoke with was overwhelmed by just a few of the stories I shared in gathering the waters. You are the characters ( no pun intended) in the book!!

Next week I am driving to Myrtle Beach, SC to link up with Alyosha and Jody Ryabinov as they minister at Shiloh Ministries founded by Jack Frost. It will be a delight to see them again and also several ladies I met through divine connections about years ago. You can access the Ryabinov’s site at www.songofisrael.com. They have also spoken on the Sid Roth show as Alyosha has shared his testimony and played his wonderful music. Jody has been in natural health many years and has designed EMF cell phone and computer shields and pendants to block harmful frequencies. I have been selling them and wear my own 24/7. Ask me about them. This stuff works.

I am lingering on the east coast to be able to spend Thanksgiving with my handsome young soldier son, Josh. He is based at Ft Bragg, NC, and it will be a joy to have several days with him before I begin my drive back to Washington. Enroute I’ll stop in Anderson, IN where my daughter and family just moved and in Sioux Falls, SD to see my oldest son and family. My mom now lives in Neligh, NE, so I’ll make a stop there as well and hope to see other family in the area. It’s one of the perks of travel to see family as most of them are not able to travel very far with young children,school obligations, and jobs.

Thank you so much for your prayer cover and your kind words of encouragement and strength. Today, I have been ‘on the road again’ for 8 weeks and am feeling the effects of much travel. I have already come 8,000 miles in 8 weeks. Were it not for my being able to spend Thanksgiving with my son, I would be heading home. It was a month ago today, October 10-11 that I stepped into the waters of the far northeast corner of America at Eastport, ME. I am still in awe of that Divine moment and the wonder of the beauty of the northeast ablaze with color. As I’ve been on the east coast, I’ve enjoyed several weeks of colorful changes and varieties of foliage. You can access some blog newsletters on my website: www.carlareed.com if you want to catch up or refer others.

Your prayers for physical strength, stamina, and healing are still needed. As you can and desire, your financial support keep my boat afloat and will enable me to get home and begin to tell the wonderful stories of His Faithful provision and protection. I want you to be encouraged and challenged as you step into your own destiny and dreams and do what has been deposited in your hearts.

I am still having some mail forwarded, but a better way to contribute to the journey is thru Paypal.com or call me with a credit/debit card number. Funds are available much quicker. Thank you for your sensitivity and generosity. You are the finest!

I am attaching a file of some of my favorite 1111 stories. Some of them you will have already read and for those of you new people added to the email list, I think you will enjoy them. I’m sure one of my books will be on prophetic numbers.

Much love to all of you,
Carla
