During the course of the morning, the Holy Spirit spoke to me and said that the colors for the following year are Blue, Red and Orange. As I didn’t have an immediate spiritual interpretation for the colors, I felt led to look up Bob Jones’ interpretation and use of colors in the past and the following is what I found...
Blue
“The blue was given in part to illustrate the release of the Spirit of Revelation in greater measure. The "rhema" revelation of the Word will be the food by which this group is sustained and upon which He will place His seal.
Our commission for this hour is to do "THE WORKS OF GOD," not merely the works of our own desires, thoughts and agendas. There is a prominent distinction. By virtue of the increase of the Spirit of Revelation delegated to us, we will see more clearly the thoughts and ways of the Father and do them likewise.”(Shepherds Rod 2002)

Red
”This is a representation of God’s dual desire for us to apprehend greater understanding of the Lord’s sacrifice and the full redemptive power of His blood. It is also a symbolic portrayal of a present call to spiritual war. The “promise land” must be contended for.
A greater understanding of the divine life provided through the Lord's blood will be deposited in this army. We have scarcely touched the redemptive virtues provided through His sacrifice. The spirit of revelation will be imparted to this company, not only to understand, but also embody spiritual excellence.
They will be the virtues of the overcomers.
And they overcame him because of the blood of the Lamb and because of the word of their testimony, and they did not love their life even when faced with death. — Revelations 12:11
Victory is achieved through the blood of Jesus and the application of it to our spirit, soul, and body.” (Shepherds Rod 2005)

Orange
In Shepherds Rod 1999, Bob says that the color orange in an invitation from God for intimate relationship. He also says that those that engage the Lord in intimate relationship will become… “dread champions that will begin to emerge during the course of this Season of the Spirit. These will be fearless warriors who have been with the Lord and are steadfast in their convictions. From this intimate companionship shall emerge a mighty army of fearless warriors that will begin to lead the church into deliverance and salvation .
The disciple John felt uninhibited to lay his head upon the very breast of God because of intimate fellowship and companionship that he had with the Lord. This is an example of the relationships that some will establish with the Lord during the course of this year.
At the last supper, even Peter recognized that John's relationship was so close to the Lord that he asked John to ask questions of the Lord. Those that attain this intimate companionship with the Lord will be able to inquire of the Lord and He will respond to their inquiry. (John 13:23-26)”

My response to these words at this time is to take a faith and intercessory role and by praying and declaring the following...
- Blue: I pray that God would release the word of revelation that will allow us to increasingly walk out the works of God.
- Red: I pray that we would have revelation concerning the blood of Jesus in such a way that we would understand what was obtained through the sacrifice of Jesus and thus walk out in a victorious overcoming life. I declare that we will increasingly understand that we have already been redeemed and reconciled by Christ's blood to God's original intent and purpose for our lives and we can now live life as children made in the image and likeness of God with access to the Father as though we had never sinned.
- Orange: I pray that we would have such an intimate relationship with God that we would display strength and take action because we know our God and that our intimate relationship with the Lord would be so self evident that those around would be attracted to that type of relationship with God.
Thank you to my friends who prayed for me during this season. I hope to post more experiences in the near future when released!
