A PROPHETIC VISITATION OF THE LORD GOD IS SECURING HIS CHURCH!
Given By Apostle Albert Buford
I’m sharing this encounter with the Lord in order to alert the Body of Christ as to what the Lord is doing in the Church. Amos 3:7 Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets.
On August 21, 2009, which was on a Friday evening. I was tired physically and spiritually but I felt an unction to go to my church building to pray. I do not normally go to the Church on a Friday. Our Corporate prayer is on Saturday at 4:00 p.m. I got to the church around 7 p.m. I turned on the sound system and put a worship tape on and went and laid out on the Pulpit stage. I had prayed for about an hour when I heard the front door out in the vestibule area close. I laid there for a minute or two, expecting to hear or see someone walk toward the sanctuary or go down the hallway toward the office. No one came in so I got up and went out of the sanctuary, and looked down the hallway. I didn’t see or hear anyone so I turned left in the vestibule and went to the main front door (which faces the north) looking to see a car or someone outside. There wasn’t anyone in the parking lot or outside the Church.
I doubled checked the front door to make sure I had locked it when I came in. It was locked. I went back into the sanctuary and laid back on the alter. About two minutes latter, I heard the door handle on the south entrance door opposite the north door rattle. It sounded like the check I do when I lock the door. I rattle the handle to make sure the door is locked. I got up again, walk out of the sanctuary, down the twenty foot hallway and looked right and approached the south entrance which faces the back parking lot. The south doors don’t have any glass panes in them. On each side of the double doors are classrooms with windows. S o, from the classrooms you can see who is outside at the door. For security urposes and not being foolish, I looked out the windows and saw no one. Then I opened the door and looked outside and no one was there. No kids pulling a prank or car in the lot.
I thought that maybe someone was trying to pull a joke. I decided to go back into the sanctuary and turn off the sound system and go home. As I started towards the sanctuary doors, I heard one of the exit doors in the back of the sanctuary slam shut! As I stepped into the sanctuary, the Spirit of the Lord spoke into my spirit. He said, “ I am shutting doors no man can open and opening doors no can open” Rev. 3:8. “I shutting My Church in for the Covenant of Miracles and locking out your enemies. I’m securing the Church.”
When I heard this, my mind went back to 1996, when I had a similar experience while praying at our church that was in a different building. I heard the sound of someone that had come in and out through a locked door. But I didn’t fine anyone in the building. It happen just before there was a Spiritual outpouring in our church. In the 90”s, we got drunk on the Holy Ghost wine, had outbreaks of laughter, healing and deliverance. The saints got drunk in the church but never took it outside to the lost and dying. And, we’ve been dry in the Church ever since. A nyway, I went home and began to study and ask God for more clarity. I preached a prophetic message that Sunday called, “When God Closes the Door”. The following are some of the important things that the Lord is saying.
THE MIRACLE OF PROVISION HAPPENS WHEN GOD SHUTS THE DOOR
II Ki 4:1-37
4 And when thou art come in, thou shalt shut the door upon thee and upon thy sons, and shalt pour out into all those vessels, and thou shalt set aside that which is full.
GOD HAS SHUT THE DOOR ON THE DEVIL AND OPENED IT FOR YOUR BLESSINGS
Rev 3:8-12
7 I know thy works: behold, I have set before thee an open door , and no man can shut it: for thou hast a little strength, and hast kept my word, and hast not denied my name

We have been tested these last seven years. God has tried our patience. Expect provision in the midst of the economic in the
