Tom Panich is a graduate of Norvel Haye's New Life Bible College (based in Cleveland, TN) and has also
completed a prophetic school affiliated with one of Bill Hamon’s protégé’s. Tom’s walk with the Lord was
birthed through a thrust into solo street evangelism when his partner didn’t show up to hand out tracks
with him at a local mall entrance. Shortly after returning to the Lord, he began playing drums for various
worship teams in a variety of churches.
In 2007 at the Albany, OR Vineyard Christian Fellowship, during “The Fusion Experience,” Dr. Mark Chironna said, “Is there a drummer in the house? If someone is anointed to play the drums, get up here right now!” Knowing he was being called once again, Tom got up and played drums for God’s prophet. Many of Tom’s worship times have been in support of various prophets. The bible says in Romans 1:11, “For I long to see you, that I may impart some spiritual gift to you, for the establishing of you.” In 2003, Tom received a strong prophetic word from a Pastor that had edited books for Brother Hagin, Sr. The prophetic word given by the Spirit of the Lord was, “Show Tom his life's work - something he can put his name on. Only the work of the Lord, only the work of the Lord, only the work of the Lord!" the prophetess cried. Shortly after receiving this prophetic word, the Lord began speaking to Tom about making anointing oil. (Exodus 37:29) He had been blending fragrances for several years when one day while he was in the shower, what seemed like a lightning bolt from God's Glory came down upon him and the voice of the Holy Spirit began to speak to him about what to call His oil. Tom was caught up in a stream of God's manifest Glory. He began to tremble vigorously under the power of the Lord. After the shaking stopped, excitedly, he ran into the kitchen to tell his wife that the Spirit of the Lord had given him the name of His anointing oil - "Third Heaven Vision." Tom is a survivor of the rock and roll, sex and drugs scene of the 70’s thru the mid 90’s. He was a drummer for nearly 30 years before Jesus rescued him after an extreme overdose on drugs. While in an asylum, recovering from the drugs, he began to read about the devil being kicked out of heaven. A prophet once said, "God will often redeem that thing which you did for the spirit of the world and anoint it for His work. As a result, the Lord has called, anointed and positioned him as a songwriter and a prophetic, warring drummer for God's Glory in His Kingdom. In October 2004, Tom produced his first solo drum CD entitled “War Drums.” The CD has an international flavor and is embraced by prophetic intercessors for celebration, drum training and war unto the Lord’s work. Tom released his own first worship CD in December 2008 titled "Songs From God." His second worship CD was produced in August 2009 and is titled "Unto God." There will be another intercessory drum CD released in the near future called “More Drums.” Production of a DVD which displays a new but old model of worship is in the wings. Tom has taught on this type of worship in a prophetic school, at spiritual warfare conferences, and at a Feast of Tabernacles in Portland, OR. He is available in the ministry of music through drums, prophetic song or to preach/teach at your request. The Bible speaks of being instant in and out of season. Forerunners inhabit the nature of God that stirs the body, so your out-of-season reality may be someone else’s in-time-revelation in God. Be stirred. “For which cause I remind you to fan the flame of the gift of God, which is in you through the laying on of my hands.” 2 Timothy 1:6 |

Articles and Prophetic Words by Tom Panich
We’ve all been robbed, but we can stop it from happening again!
by Tom Panich
Within the body of Christ, we’ve had enough of abuse, backbiting, dishonoring, and, yes, even literal robbery of each other. Without being aware of it, many have actually been tricked into robbing our brothers and sisters in Christ. Opposition has used this deceptive plot against us, causing us to believe we haven’t been robbing one another. Our adversary, the devil, attempts to tear us down and even destroy us and our relationships with other Christian brothers and sisters.
Our enemy has had a real field day through our agreement with him. It’s time to take back what the enemy has stolen. At the same time we’ve even robbed our Father through our failing to truly forgive and love one another as God so first loved us. We’ve robbed God of His ability to release the fullness of His blessing upon us. We can stop it from happening again!
The Spirit of God says, “As you have done this unto one of these little ones, so have you done it unto Me.”
Luke 17:2 It would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck, and he were thrown into the sea, rather than that he should cause one of these little ones to stumble.
The truth of the matter is that while many have been busy robbing one another, simultaneously, we’ve also been robbing ourselves. Many have literally gotten in God’s way and robbed themselves of the very blessings that God has for them in Christ Jesus. This ungodly spiritual robbery has shut down many ministries, destroyed friendships. Some of God’s precious ministers have even prematurely been taken out before their time.
In Christ, we’re to be loving, peaceful, longsuffering, gentle, good, faithful, meek and self-controlled. We’re to honor the people of God we may think to be less honorable. God’s manner in which He views a person is not the same way we view them. When we allow ourselves to think less of our brothers and sisters, we actually place ourselves into a very precarious position and give Jesus immediate permission to judge us and our works unto God. God wants us to examine our own heart before we think of others as less valuable than us. God cares for everything He’s created.
Surely He cares for His people that believe in His holy name.
1 Corinthians 12:23 And those members of the body, which we think to be less honorable, upon these we bestow more abundant honor; and our uncomely parts have more abundant comeliness.
Jesus’ Passion
As Christians, before we think of ourselves, we’re first called to uphold those who may be in need. When we fail to embrace this simple truth, the love of God is not in us. When we give our brothers and sisters this world’s goods and don’t also have compassion for them, perhaps we’re merely trying to get them to disappear quietly.
For whatever reason trials may come upon people, we’re to walk with those that have been afflicted or oppressed, even if our encouragement is sometimes tough love. These challenging times we’re in call for spiritually aggressive actions. We’re to be God’s fiery ignited ones that are to forcefully advance God’s Kingdom, with God’s love, compassion and kindness.
Instead of cursing people, imagine how powerfully God would bless us if we chose to release God’s love, especially when it isn’t deserved. God’s perfect love is the highest blessing available to release upon people. The life and love of Christ in us freely came and is to then flow through us.
It is only God’s grace poured out through us into people’s hearts that truly blesses people, especially when we don’t feel like blessing someone.
If the people of faith in Christ would simply begin to bless others with the love of God, the world would become a much more pleasant place to live in. In this season, God is seeking those that don’t consider themselves as being a blessing to their families, friends or surroundings. They are the hidden treasures God truly wants to use and bless mightily in this hour.
The Spirit of God says, “Many think they are far away from God. The Great I AM is never far from them. Even Jesus’ other sheep that don’t yet call on Him by His name, The Great I AM is near to them as well.”
1 John 3:17 But whoever has the world's goods, and sees his brother in need, and closes his heart of compassion against him, how does the love of God remain in him?
What’s your preference?
Preferring others and not thinking of ourselves more highly than we should brings us into the position of loving God’s more unfortunate sheep and those who don’t know God. As believers in Christ, we’re not to look away or walk by when a brother or sister has fallen onto hard times or into a ditch. The Bible mentions a priest and a Levite walked right by this beaten, naked, robbed and half-dead man but the Good Samaritan knew precisely what to do.
When life brings challenges to our brothers and sisters, we’re to lift them up just as the Good Samaritan did. The kind-hearted Good Samaritan knew exactly what to do and he followed through. If Christ hadn’t followed through on the cross of Calvary, we’d be in a world full of a lot more trouble than what we’re currently experiencing. The Good Samaritan not only doctored up this man’s wounds, but he anointed him with oil and wine.
God wants to stir us up and anoint us with His oil and wine, the oil of His Holy Spirit’s presence and with His joy. God, with His heart of compassion and passion wants to stir our hearts that have grown cold for the lost.
One of God’s major desires is for us to help people get motivated and restored, especially when they don’t have the strength to do so. That’s when we’re truly releasing God’s love into and over our neighborhoods as we should. The Good Samaritan even donated money and promised to pay whatever the hurt man needed to recover. He did all he could to see that the robbed man was abundantly blessed.
Luke 10:30-34 Jesus answered by telling a story. "There was once a man traveling from Jerusalem to Jericho. On the way he was attacked by robbers. They took his clothes, beat him up, and went off leaving him half-dead. A Samaritan traveling the road came on him. When he saw the man's condition, his heart went out to him. And went to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring in oil and wine, and set him on his own beast, and brought him to an inn, and took care of him.”
We’re to speak words of edification found in God’s word to unbelievers as well as to the lost and troubled believers, but God wants us to go farther than that. He wants our arms of love, kindness and compassion to continue to embrace others into a place of truly trusting God. God is looking for His people who will not only edify others through the teaching of His word, but to also encourage those in Him to not grow weary through their encouraging of others. God wants to encourage us to continue to tarry with the lost (even the lost in His Church that may not think they are lost).
God also wants us to begin to honor one another more through the increasing and releasing of encouragement to the people of God within His Church.
Romans 12:10 Be devoted to each other with mutual affection.
Excel in showing respect for each other.
Perfect love offends
If we were to get real honest with ourselves, many of us don’t like confrontation when people observe possible ungodly behavior in us. It’s the “arrived” mentality or thinking we can never make mistakes that has the potential to set us all up for personal offenses. As God’s people, we’re to enjoy ourselves and have some fun; but let’s face it, we live in a less-than-perfect world. When offenses do come, and they will, fear not!
For God, through the cross of Christ has overcome any and all fears the spirit of this world would like to place upon us through offenses. Our perfect offence for offenses is to not get offended! That’s His perfect love perfected!
Many have allowed the enemy to bring separation between their brothers and sisters in Christ. To temporarily separate from the people of God because of continued ungodly behavior or disobedience is one thing, but to be out of fellowship with God’s people because we think they’re not safe or spiritual enough is not Christ’s heart of love for His church. I strongly believe many fail to have good, sound Christian relationships based upon their own internal anxieties, fears and the lack of God’s love, patience and learned skills to cope with various confrontations.
Years ago I spoke these simple words to a mentor friend while he preached, “Perfect love offends!” That doesn’t mean we’re to be purposefully offensive . . . for the radical work of Christ’s cross alone is enough to offend the very worst of our enemies and the best of our family and friends.
1 John 4:18 There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear has punishment. He who fears is not made perfect in love.
Jesus never told us His perfect love wouldn’t offend us, but He did plainly say, “Be encouraged, I have overcome the world.”
The kinds of fear that the spirit of this world tries to place upon us is at the opposite side of the spectrum from Christ’s perfected love. Our dear heavenly Father simply doesn’t give us ungodly fears. When we don’t fear what the spirit of this world can do to us, the love of God can be poured out into and through us.
Christ’s perfect, perfected love knows no earthly fears except for the reverent awe - the Godly fear - that leads us to our Father’s mighty wisdom.
John 16:33 I have told you these things, that in me you may have shalom. In the world you have oppression; but cheer up! I have overcome the world.
Be known for Christ’s holy love
Jesus told us, “You shall be known for your love one for another.”
When people abuse, falsely accuse, judge, totally misunderstand or even painfully persecute us, how we’re responding is what God is really observing in us. When people do harmful, offensive things to us, are we
even making efforts to reconcile with them by letting them know they’ve potentially sinned against us?
When something offensive has been done to us, often times the first reaction we have is one of offense. When offenses do come, the first thing we might want to consider is to immediately seek guidance from God’s Spirit as to how to peacefully proceed. It’s also an excellent time to bow out and remove ourselves from the proximity of the situation and carefullyprepare our responses.
Some of God’s people never forgive and remain unforgiving their entire lives. This is not only an extremely dangerous position to be in, but an unhealthy place as well. When people won’t come to the table of forgiveness for restoration, the best thing we can do is to remit the sin or wrong-doing we believe they’ve done, or are continuing to do, and then release them to the Holy Spirit.
When we choose not to forgive people, we seriously run the risk of possibility missing out on many God-given, ordained opportunities laid out for our lives. Through our free will, God has given us the option to rob ourselves through an unforgiving heart. Starting this day, may we all choose to forgive and love one another unconditionally as Christ, on the cross, asked the Father to do. “Father, forgive them for they know NOT what they do.”
The Spirit of God says, “Even if you believe they know what they’ve done is wrong, and won’t be reconciled to you, forgive them still.”
John 13:35 By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.
Many ministries unto God haven’t advanced forward because our enemy has had many offended with one another. To get us to be offended with each other is the devil’s greatest work! Many saints are even afraid to approach one another because our adversary has caused them to believe that they’ll be exposed for bringing false accusations while they’re simply attempting to be reconciled. The anti-Christ spirit has worked mightily through this great deception. In the Spirit of God, may we walk fearlessly toward our brothers and sisters and be reconciled one to another in love.
The Spirit of God says, “The word of God states, the beginning of wisdom is truly found through having a reverent awe, a fear of God. Not by what man can do to you by trying to destroy your reputation. In God, you have absolutely no reputation, just as Jesus had none. For you, God’s beloved, releasing God’s Kingdom into the universe is all the Father requires.
Therefore, be God’s holy and pure ambassadors of grace, love and mercy. Be reconciled one to another, for that’s truly a ministry God has given to you His people.”
2 Corinthians 5:18,19 But all things are of God, who reconciled us to Himself through Yeshua the Messiah, and gave to us the ministry of reconciliation; namely, that God was in Messiah reconciling the world to Himself, not reckoning to them their trespasses, and having committed to us the word of reconciliation.
We’ve all been robbed by religious traditions
In many ways, today’s religious systems resemble the Pharisee’s practices. This system has had much of the Church of Jesus Christ bound to religious traditions for over 2000 years. Religious deception has run rampant in the Church for far too long and elitism follows real close behind. This pharisaical deception has come to disqualified many of God’s precious saints. It can bring about varying condescending expressions. It seems to proudly and secretly imply, “You’re not good enough for us to promote you into the ministry.”
Many have been greatly deceived by this marginalization of God’s people.
While many in the Church still struggle, needing workers for the great harvest field coming, the spirit of anti-Christ still carries its subtle implication that says, “There is no need of you.”
In Christ, we’re to visualize one another as Christ sees us, seated in heavenly places with Him. That’s God’s vision of unity for His Church. As Christians, when we choose unity, the enemy quickly looses his foothold and has great difficulty attacking or attaching anything to us. The enemy’s traps are only triggered by our agreement with what he says to us. So when we make the decision to love and support one another, the plots of the enemy can be broken. When we choose to not associate with other believers, we also may just be judging them from within our own hurting hearts. It can also send out a spiritual signal of rejection and implies some just aren’t accepted as God’s beloved, which is completely contradictory to what God’s word says. God clearly calls us His beloved.
Mark 7:13 “You are destroying the word of God through your tradition that you have handed down. And you do many other things like that.”
May we not continue to be against each other but be found in love for one another, together in unity, for God’s heavenly principles and purposes to be released in all the earth. When we begin to choose to partner together in Christ's like-mindedness, God will not only totally bless our ministries unto Him, but He will also begin to overtake every opposing force that comes against us.
I decree total reconciliation and restoration come to the entire body of Christ, In Yeshua’s mighty name.
Tom Panich
