 "A
CALL TO MARKETPLACE INTERCESSORS TO HELP UNDER GIRD THE JOSEPH COMPANY"
by James W. Goll

1.) The Joseph Company
is Arising
In recent years it has been declared by numerous prophetic voices that a Last
Days Joseph Company of men and women with market place, business anointings
would arise on the scene. They would be powerfully used to release funds to
promote the Gospel of the Kingdom of our Lord Jesus Christ. Some refer to these
as "Market Place Apostles". These resources would specifically be used to help
launch Compassion Ministries to the Poor, Houses of Worship and Prayer, Healing
Centers, Church Planting and Nation's Building.
A creative, prophetic presence will rest on these entrepreneurs as new insights,
inventions, and fresh approaches to business are released from the Lord. These
vessels will have passed through the fire of many trials so that the Lord can
trust them with the wealth of the nations. As the prophetic voice has been being
restored, vision has not been lacking in recent years - but rather the resources
needed to fund the vision seems to have been partially withheld. But in these
days the missing ingredient of the Joseph Company rightly relating to church
apostles and prophets is arising for such a time as this.
2.) A Reoccurring Vision of a Young Joseph
In the past few months I have had a reoccurring vision of a young man named
Joseph around the age of 12 - 13 appearing before me. He has a gleam in his
eye and strength in his body. But as I watch this vision repeatedly unfold before
me, I see a Boa Constrictor snake coming up his legs and wrapping itself around
his midsection attempting to squeeze the life and breath out of him. In the
vision it has appeared to be a life and death matter. I believe that this young
man represents the "Joseph Company" after the spirit and nature of Joseph in
the book of Genesis. It is not a new birth - or something just now conceived
- but rather something that has been declared for a dozen years or so. The young
man is at the time of "coming of age" from boyhood into manhood. Therefore he
is now a real threat to the enemy - where previously he has only been a "dream".
Consecrated market place men and women hold an enormous key for the coming Harvest.
Therefore, this is one of the greatest threats to the enemy's camp of anything
that has been released in decades if not centuries. We desperately need this
partnering to occur in this hour.
(Note: Many prophetic encounters contain representations of people appearing
in a visionary manner. These are typically symbolic in nature and not actual
appearances of departed spirits. Therefore let us use wisdom and discernment
in how these types of experiences are conveyed.)
3.) A Confirming Dream
For some weeks I have been seeking confirmation and understanding of applications
needed concerning this vision. I have been asking the Lord to release His wisdom
on how to respond to the attack against young Joseph's life. I have observed
businesses coming under increased demonic attacks and individuals with market
place callings coming under unusual stress and pressures. Many ministries I
know have been struggling for their very life and breath. In seeking confirmation,
I recently received a dream in which a piece of paper floated down out of the
sky to me. I took hold of it and could read writing on it. In big bold letters
it stated NEEDED MARKET PLACE INTERCESSORS. I am convinced that this is one
of the major missing ingredients in this hour. Market Place Intercessors must
arise! Prayer Shields must be put in place for these businesses. We have prophetically
called forth these new Josephs into being. We must now go proactive with the
global prayer movement to assist our brothers and sisters in their field of
endeavors for our Lord. We must partner together!
4.) Affirming Voices - Greater Clarity - Exercising
Authority
I have shared this vision with several regional and national leaders. Intercessory
leaders, apostolic and prophetic voices have affirmed this vision and the response
it requires. Bill Greenman of Purpose International has been seeking the Lord
with me concerning this matter for some time. I will now relay to you his affirming
message.
"Since late in the autumn of 2002 there began a surge of faith and productivity
in the areas of business for the Christian. This was followed by about 7 months
in 2003 with extraordinary faith for the Lord to move in new businesses and
investments, with many people being blessed during this time. Then, in mid July
or so, everything began to slow down. Problems of increasing magnitude began
to plague the very businesses that were only weeks ago being blessed by the
Lord. By late August, many companies were at a stand still and finances were
bottled up in legal issues or intra-corporate problems.
It was about this time that I contacted my friend James Goll to discuss the
matter. I felt there was a spiritual battle involved and that a time of fasting
prayer must be called, similar to that which he had trumpeted so well in December
of 2002, for the first 90 days of 2003 concerning Homeland Security for the
USA and Israel. Jim then related the vision where a young boy was being suffocated
by the coils of a large boa constrictor snake. This strangle hold is what we've
been experiencing since late summer and it must be broken.
Then, a week or so ago, the Holy Spirit arrested my attention by saying to me,
"I let that snake attack Joseph for a reason. I did it because I wanted the
devil to be forced to pay back 7 times what he stole from the Josephs during
that time. Now I want you to declare that, and demand that 7 fold return from
the thief." I immediately did just that - declaring it into the heavens. But
the Lord quickly let me know that was not what he meant. He wanted a national
declaration."
5. A National and Global Strategic Prayer Plan
Several national leaders have already agreed that a united fasting prayer vigil
should concur. (Application of fasting will be as the Holy Spirit directs each
of you in your personal situations.) This communiqué marks the beginning of
a grass roots level movement that includes the "power of declaration". We want
to corporately declare into the spirit realm that:
1. The Joseph anointing and the Joseph Company of believers are demanding that
the demonic spirits, which have stolen, time and money from us to let us go!
2. We declare that those demonic forces arrayed against the Joseph Company of
believers are being bound by the blood of Jesus Christ and forbidden to hinder
our progress in any manner.
3. We declare that the Joseph Company of believers and the anointing that resides
in us and this present age will prevail in the purposes and plans of our Lord
Jesus Christ.
Additional Applications to Consider:
1. Christian Market Place Leaders adapt a prayer altar in their place of business.
2. Congregations unite for a Prayer Shield around businesses in their cities
and especially those represented amongst their church members.
3. Prayer Leaders begin a new thrust of praying for the Josephs to come forth
and intercede for their health and prospering of their families as well as companies.
4. Expand your vision and look for the GateKeepers of Cities to come together
in every area: Church, Youth, Market Place, Governmental and Intercessory. Build
a united front!
