A sister gave me a book to read yesterday, "Prophetic Destiny of a Nation". When I opened and read what it said about the state of Massachusetts, it spoke of the 'hand clap'.

(from May 25th-clapping, clapping, clapping...we have been clapping for days...same beat, different beat, often together, at times apart. There is something in that clap, there is a sound...as if our clapping was joining into a sound in the spirit. I heard these words: "a rumbling" ...I knew - as when the day is clear, the sky is clear, but you hear the rumbling beyond the clouds...no real thunder or lightning...just the rumbling...but you know it's coming. When the weather is like this - it usually just 'suddenly' breaks and it's a downpour.)

It read..."The hand clap is like a trumpet sound and is the same word used for driving a tent peg. So hand claps are like Jael when she drove the tent peg into Cisera's head. (I realized that I often with clenched fist keep beat to the music moving my hand up and down.) When we praise with the hand clap we are breaking the headship of the enemy over our lives. So much has come out of Massachusetts, but a new sound is coming out of Massachusetts."
