"A Vision of the Champagne of God" by Janet Chambers, Christchurch, NZ

I heard God saying: "I've poured out new wine, and you have experienced the new wine, but what I'm about to pour out is champagne." In a vision, I saw the Lord with a huge bottle of spiritual champagne, and He's shaking and shaking it and any minute now that cork is going to pop!

I knew He was speaking about "spiritual champagne" so I began to study the different characteristics between wine and champagne. I was stunned as I began to uncover some facts about champagne. We have been getting words about pressing and about shaking, and we've also had words about strengthening.

There are a lot of interesting things about champagne that have spiritual significance. There are international laws concerning the making of champagne which I'm going to share with you here.

1. The Grapes Have to be Hand-Picked
Prophetic word: You are hand-picked. The tender of the vineyard is going through, and He has hand-picked you.

Those grapes are picked from very specific areas. Here in New Zealand and also in Australia, words keeps coming out about epicenters. God is forming epicenters all over the world, where His glory is about to be poured out in a new way. I believe there is a parallel with specific areas where the champagne grapes are grown and moves of God are coming from specific epicenters.


2. The Grapes Are Pressed Twice
There's a pressing twice with Champagne grapes because there's a fineness to this drink. There has been a strong sense of the pressing of the Lord in 2017 through circumstances. Many of us feel like, "God, I've had enough pressing and I've had enough shaking! There's been so much going on in my life; I felt like everything had come into alignment and then the pressure comes on again." But it's actually love. He is doing it because of what He knows is about to happen and what is about to be poured out.

3. It's Pressed in a Covered Environment
Champagne grapes can't be pressed just anywhere; they're pressed in a covered environment. All around the world, I am seeing a new sense of appreciation of covering. I'm seeing prophets coming together in companies of prophets. And there's protocols to the prophetic being written. I'm seeing evangelists gathering together and wanting to band together. There's covering, there's protection and there's appreciation for governance.

4. It Can Be Vintage or Non-Vintage
God is speaking about a move that will be multi-generational—vintage or non-vintage. It doesn't matter the age of the people concerned, spiritual champagne is going to be poured out and it's going to stick!

5. It's High in Polyphenols
Champagne is very high in polyphenols. Polyphenols help prevent heart disease and they help prevent stroke. What God is about to pour out through us and on us, is going to help heal the heart disease in our nations. It's going to deal with depression in our nations. It's hard to be depressed when you're drinking spiritual champagne!

6. It's Good for the Brain
In laboratory tests recently, they've found out that champagne—not wine, not other forms of alcohol, but champagne—appears to help and increase the cognitive function and memory function of the brain!

God is about to pour out something that will touch our brains; that will touch our minds. He's going to download blueprints and strategies. If you're in business or ministry, God is about to pour out something that will touch your brain and help release strategies. It's going to release strategies and increase for us!

7. It's Doubly Fermented
Fermented means: "To set in motion, to be excited into motion". So with champagne, they ferment it once and then it's bottled, and then they ferment it again. It's a double stirring; a double setting into motion.

God is shaking us into motion—to not just be in the church with our gifts, but to get out into the marketplace. God is stirring us. He's shaking us into motion.

There's a greater pressure and a greater fizz with champagne than there is with wine, so the bottles have to be strengthened. I believe God has been strengthening us. In the 1990s we saw an outpouring of new wine.

Can I suggest that between then and now there's been a strengthening going on? There's been a shoring up? I believe we've been getting our foundations sure and God has been strengthening us up because He is going to pour out and pour in spiritual champagne.


8. Large Bottles of Champagne are Named After Biblical Kings and Biblical Figures
The largest bottle is the Melchizedek bottle; it holds 30 liters, or 40 bottles of champagne. Now when you look into the meaning of 40, we see in the Bible:
• 40 days and 40 nights with Noah and the flood.
• The spies went into the land for 40 days.
• There are people having fasted for 40 days.
• 40 means a change of era, a change of season, a change of time. God is declaring: "It is a change of season. It is a change of era. It is a change of time."

The number 30, because it holds 30 liters:
• 30 can mean the beginning of ministry, the beginning of a ministry age or a ruling age.
• Jesus came into his ministry at 30 years of age.
• David became king at 30 years of age.
• Joseph became prime minister at 30 years of age.
• It means stepping up into what you were born for. And God is saying, "I'm releasing champagne. 

I'm shaking up the Melchizedek bottle. It's a change of era. It's a change of season and you are stepping up, Church, into what you were born for."

There are fine, fine bubbles in champagne. This causes it to be absorbed quickly into the system. We know that we are in a season of acceleration where God is going to pour out immensely! Many multitudes of people are going to receive the Gospel and it's going to impact them quickly. They're going to absorb it quickly. They're going to up and run.

What's Champagne Used For?
Champagne is sprayed over the champions of games or competitions. When they do this, it sprays over the crowd as well as the champions, and it sticks and can't be just rubbed off! You are a champion—you are winning! God is wanting to spray out a new thing.

It's used to launch large vessels, which prophetically means ministries. God is going to release new, large ministries in this season that are going to impact the earth.

Champagne is used in special family occasions, when the family gets together. I'm hearing reports coming from all over the Church of different denominations getting together. Hungry people are crying out! It doesn't matter whether they're Catholic, Anglican, Presbyterian or Pentecostal. There's a cry of, "I'm hungry God! Pour it out! I'm hungry God!" That's the season we're in—a special occasion in the family of God

It's also used in special times of romance—particularly during courtship. I believe we are in a season of courtship between the Bride and the Lord.

9. Champagne Sprays Because of High Pressure and It Can't Be Recorked Easily
The devil is not going to be able to recork this thing. He's not going to be able to stop it up. And the more it's shaken, the further it will spray.

There have been some prophetic words which came out in Australia declaring:
1. We're going to a wedding! We're getting ready for a wedding.
2. There's a theme of family coming together. There's a sound of expectancy, but not emergency. It used to be S.O.S coming from the Church, but now it's a new S.O.S: Song of Songs. It's the song of lovers coming out.
3. "I'm recalibrating My people with the heart of champions."
4. We will see a happy and industrious people being released in this next move of God.
These four different words all came out and all line up with what God is beginning to do with the pouring out of champagne.


 Another thing we've been hearing a lot of concerns the 7 mountains of influence of society. When I looked at Joel and Amos, I was fascinated with these two Scriptures: Joel 3:18 and Amos 9:13. Both talk about mountains dripping with wine.

Champagne was traditionally drunk by the rich and the educated. In the next move of God, we are going to see all of society dripping with wine. We need our hospital systems dripping with wine. We need our legal systems dripping with wine. We need our education systems dripping with what God is pouring out. We need the people leading our nations saturated with the presence of God—that's what God is about to do.

God is about to pour out in a way that is more explosive than before; more intoxicating (spiritually) than before. It'll touch the mountains of influence so powerfully that they will drip with the abundance of it. There's a fresh sense of being champions, of being victorious, and of Heaven celebrating us. It will usher in a deeper relationship of unashamed intimacy with the King. It will spray all over society. It'll stick and the devil can't recork it. Amen!

Scripture:
Romans 13:11‭-‬14
To live like this is all the more urgent, for time is running out and you know it is a strategic hour in human history. It is time for us to wake up! For our full salvation is nearer now than when we first believed. Night’s darkness is dissolving away as a new day of destiny dawns. So we must once and for all strip away what is done in the shadows of darkness, removing it like filthy clothes . And once and for all we clothe ourselves with the radiance of light as our weapon. We must live honorably, surrounded by the light of this new day, not in the darkness of drunkenness and debauchery, not in promiscuity and sensuality, not being argumentative or jealous of others. Instead fully immerse yourselves into the Lord Jesus, the Anointed One, and don’t waste even a moment’s thought on your former identity to awaken its selfish desires.
