Over the past few days I have been thinking about an annual conference I plan to host in the future dealing with resurrection, abundant life, and immortality in Jesus Christ.  I began to ponder the idea of finding a brand of wine with the name “Immortal” in the title to take communion with. Having discussed it with some friends on Sunday, I decided yesterday (Tuesday) to actually search online to see what I could find.  Keep in mind as you read that I am not a wine enthusiast and do not have any idea what is going on in the wine world—the only way I could come across this under such circumstances is by the Spirit of God.  What I discovered surprised me greatly, and I realized through this encounter that the Lord was releasing a word to the Body of Christ. The word is this: God is releasing the Wine of Immortality in 2018.

The Wine Industry Advisor published an article yesterday (October 31, 2017), less than two hours before I did my online search for immortal wine.  The title is “Immortal Estate to Launch First Wines in 2018,” and as you can imagine, it caught my eye.  The article states, “The vineyard is an organic evolution of Hidden Ridge Vineyard, a winery that has produced wines that have earned a rare 100-point rating from internationally influential wine critic Robert Parker.”

The first thing that caught my attention was the name, Immortal estate, wine immortality abundantlife immortalestate holyspiritjesusfathergod heavenmiraclessignswondersbut what drew me in further is when I read that the vineyard is transitioning from Hidden Ridge to Immortal Estate.  Here’s what that says to me:  What was once hidden in the high places, found in the heavens, God is releasing to us as our inheritance—our estate—the revelation of immortality in Jesus Christ.  Furthermore, the article says this is an evolution, a natural progression from one thing to another.  For those who believe in healing, the natural progression is to begin to believe God for raising the dead for those who were sick and were not healed.  Then, as we get a revelation of God’s desire for resurrection, we get opened to the understanding that God gives us power to raise the dead because it is not His will for us to die, and God brings us into the revelation of immortality.  There is a natural evolutionary process that God takes us through as we increase in revelation in Him.

If you recall back to the story of the wedding feast at Cana, Jesus turned water into wine, but there is a prophetic picture found in that story that relates to what God is saying today.  John 2:1-10 says:

“On the third day a wedding took place at Cana in Galilee. Jesus’ mother was there, and Jesus and his disciples had also been invited to the wedding.  When the wine was gone, Jesus’ mother said to him, “They have no more wine.”
“Woman, why do you involve me?” Jesus replied. “My hour has not yet come.”
His mother said to the servants, “Do whatever he tells you.”
Nearby stood six stone water jars, the kind used by the Jews for ceremonial washing, each holding from twenty to thirty gallons.
Jesus said to the servants, “Fill the jars with water”; so they filled them to the brim.
Then he told them, “Now draw some out and take it to the master of the banquet.”
They did so, and the master of the banquet tasted the water that had been turned into wine. He did not realize where it had come from, though the servants who had drawn the water knew. Then he called the bridegroom aside and said, “Everyone brings out the choice wine first and then the cheaper wine after the guests have had too much to drink; but you have saved the best till now.”

The Immortal Estate vineyard is a prophetic picture not just of the transition from the current state in the Body of Christ toward the revelation of immortality becoming better known in the coming year, but also speaks of the quality of this revelation God is releasing.  This revelation has a 100-point rating.  This rating is rarely seen in the wine world because 100 is as high as the scale goes!!  God has saved the best until now!

The bridegroom of the wedding provided wine, but the bridegroom Jesus provided even better wine as time went on.  The Bible speaks of God releasing new wine in a number of places in scripture, which speak prophetically to God releasing new realms of His virtue to His people in the days to come.  Even as God has given us the Azusa Awakening and the renewal of the Body’s use of spiritual gifts, the Latter Rain movement and others wherein God restored a revelation about the function of prophets and apostles, and other movements both prior and post where God has restored various revelation to His body, now God is evolving His church, releasing new wine.  This wine of His spirit is the revelation of abundant, immortal life, that we who live and believe in Jesus will never die.

While pondering this word, the Lord dropped another piece of the puzzle into my spirit.  October 31st 2017, the day this article was published, is the 500-year anniversary of the Protestant Reformation when Martin Luther nailed his theses to the door of a church in Wittenburg.  5 is the number of grace.  100 speaks to the 100-point rating of the Immortal Estate wine, but there is more!  According to this article on Innertech.com, 5 and 100 are defined as:

5 – HE (ARMS): {h,e,ah} The principle or concept of universal life. The female principle behind creation. The arms hold or bind, as in a covenant or as in love.

100 – QOPH (HORIZON): {q} The exalted state of Aleph. The end of death and the negative. Ancient Hebrew letter pictures a sun splitting the horizon line. The sun sets on death and rises on Life.

The timing of this word in conjunction with the 500-year anniversary of the Reformation is significant, and it isn’t coincidence. It speaks to the release of grace to end death, and to bind, and hold to us in covenant to this revelation of life and immortality in Jesus Christ, ushering in a new era.

In 2018 we will see a greater release of the revelation of life and immortality that 2 Timothy 2:10-11 speaks about.  We will begin to see even more teachers and speakers releasing this revelation of immortal life.  New books are getting ready to be published that will spread this message like wildfire.  New organizations and ministries will be birthed in 2018 and some will be revealed in 2018 that have been hidden—all of which have the mandate to release the abundant life of Jesus Christ to the nations.  God is releasing a mystery that has been hidden for ages, and is bringing His sons and daughters into a greater level of our inheritance.  Immortality in Christ Jesus is our birthright, our estate, and God is sparing no expense on His part to release the best things to us in this time.

To read more of this prophetic word and what God has planned for our future, grab a copy of my book “The Gospel of Life and Immortality,” available on both Kindle and in Print on Amazon.

    For we that are in this tabernacle do groan, being burdened: not for that we would be unclothed, but clothed upon, that mortality might be swallowed up of life. 2 Corinthians 5:4.
    For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.
    Paul had much to say about immortality. Nothing new under the sun, said the preacher of Ecclesiastes.
    So often what is deemed “new” is actually old. Especially if it comes out Scripture. Many generations have read and studied this Word of God. Many accounts of revelation of God and what He said. True then and true now .Everything we think we know comes from the Word we have loved and read, and studied. God breathed Word. Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever. Hebrews 13:8 pretty much sums it up.

      You are right—Paul did speak about it a lot. Many people don’t realize that though, because we have been taught it means heaven-when-we-die.

  2. K Duncan

    YES!!!!!!! My spirit says, yes!

  3. Deborah

    Very cool, Michael! I love when a bunch of revelation falls into place all at once.

  4. Lynn

    I just sat here speechless for awhile. What a stunning “coincidence”. There’s glory all over this Immortal Estate.

  5. Grace

    YES!! I see many begin the practise of raising the dead in 2018.

  6. Ron Trammell

    Awesome!!! I’m one of those authors.

    • Michael King

      Great!! What are you aiming to write about? As in, what is your goal or focus?

      • Ron Trammell

        Sorry, my brother. I just today became aware of your response.
        The name of the book is ‘LIVE FOREVER!’
        I think the intro kind of nails it down for you.
        INTRODUCTION

        God has predestined and preordained for you to be on this earth for such a time as this. There are specific works and specific pathways that your heavenly Father has designed for you to take. It’s all written in your book of life. God is 100% victory and in God there is no defeat. I love the way Eph. 2:10 amplified states it:

        For we are His workmanship [His own master work, a work of art], created in Christ Jesus [reborn from above—spiritually transformed, renewed, ready to be used] for good works, which God prepared [for us] beforehand [taking paths which He set], so that we would walk in them [living the good life which He prearranged and made ready for us].

        You can live forever, right now, without bowing your knee to God’s enemy: death. We are that generation. We are those people who will rise and shine and move into the fullness of the gospel.

        No matter what your going through today, God is calling you out and has led you to read this book for a reason. He’s giving you an open invitation to continue to live and not die!

        God is telling you to stretch your vision and stretch your faith and
        believe Him for His very best.

        Do you want it? Are there still things you want to accomplish on this earth? Then read on and let’s learn how.

        • Michael King

          I love it! Do you have a website or something so I can follow along and/or see when the book comes out?

          • Ron Trammell

            My website has been down for awhile. I need to get it back up.
            Shoot me an email at yourmiraclenow@gmail.com and I will be
            glad to keep you updated. Thanks for caring.
