Given by the Lord through
Dan Symonds
At
the end of May, on a Sunday morning, I felt a very deep grief for the duration
of the preaching of the word. This happened 2 Sundays in a row. I was given
a vision of a large joint which was way out of alignment. I sensed that God
was saying that He was grieving because His Church was out of joint and needed
to get lined up.
From June 22 - 24 I was very
dizzy. I immediately became aware that this was not natural, nor was it a demonic
attack. After prayer by a trusted intercessor it was discerned that I was prophetically
bearing the imbalance of the Church.
On June 25 I began to feel some pain in my hip. Within 4 days it was almost unbearable. I began to hear God say that I was wrestling. The only problem was, was that I couldn't discern what I was wrestling over. God reminded me of His wrestling with Jacob and how He put the socket of his thigh out of joint.I ended up going to the chiropractor for several visits. My lower back was out of line and this was causing pressure on the nerve which passes over(through?) the left hip. I would get adjusted and feel better, but the back would pop out again in less than a day. Each time my doctor would have me lay on the table and say, "relax and lean into me." Then he would forcefully push up on my hip and things would go back into place.
After
2 weeks, during which I heard God speak very, very little, my back stayed put
and suddenly God began to speak loudly and clearly. He said, "I am about
to adjust My Church. They are to relax and lean into me. I am about to change
many things all at once, and some of these adjustments will be painful. I will
be very specific about what I want to adjust."
I then began to hear the word "fluid." I understood this to be the fluid which surrounds the joints and lubricates them. The Lord impressed upon me that the prophetic word would be this fluid. God is going to give very specific words to His prophets about the adjustments He wants to make. As the body listens to the prophets they will be better able to weather the adjustments. Further, He said, "Hold on tightly to absolutely nothing. Keep a loose grasp on everything as everything is subject to change."

Gen
32:24-25
Then Jacob was left alone, and a man wrestled with him until daybreak. And when he saw that he had not prevailed against him, he touched the socket of his thigh; so the socket of Jacob's thigh was dislocated while he wrestled with him. (NAS)
Eph 4:11-16
And He gave some as apostles, and some as prophets, and some as evangelists, and some as pastors and teachers, for the equipping of the saints for the work of service, to the building up of the body of Christ;until we all attain to the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a mature man, to the measure of the stature which belongs to the fulness of Christ. As a result, we are no longer to be children, tossed here and there by waves, and carried about by every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, by craftiness in deceitful scheming; but speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in all aspects into Him, who is the head, even Christ, from whom the whole body, being fitted and held together by that which every joint supplies, according to the proper working of each individual part, causes the growth of the body for the building up of itself in love. (NAS)
