Jodie Hughes

This is a profound and powerful word and dream from our friend Jodie. What stands out to me is the shifting of the battle, the urgency of our decrees and the significant window of time that we are currently standing in. I encourage you to take the time to read this dream, if you haven't yet, and align your heart with what God is speaking over this pivotal moment in time. Also, notice the original release date of this word reflects John 10:10.

NOW is a “due time” to not give up in the battle surrounding abortion, but instead advance in confidence.decreeing life.

“The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.” John 10:10

“Let us not lose heart in doing good, for in due time we will reap if we do not grow weary.” Gal 6:9

I recently had a heart-piercing prophetic dream in which I heard the cry for urgent, persistent prayer for life. In this season it is crucially important to not stop praying and to not back down. The courts of Earth WILL hear the cry for justice from the courts from Heaven. There is a specific grace being released that is key for prayer and advancing forward in this season. This grace will bring influence and new attention from the media, attract many that have previously not openly stood for life, raise up a new breed of prayer warriors and movements, spark fresh grace over fostering and adoption and alternatives to abortion, open the ears of the courts of earth and impact law, and transform the face of activism. As we ensure that our words, actions and prayers are bathed in this grace and love, and not from anger, previously deafened ears will hear the cry for life. Now is a time to keep standing, keep believing and keep praying as there’s a grace and momentum for major breakthroughs and reform. As we rightly celebrate wins, we must keep striking the ground in prayer until we see complete victory. Justice is being decreed from the courts of heaven. Charge ahead in boldness and confidence, not backing down.

I was acutely aware in this dream that all that I saw take place, was because of those who sacrificially and faithfully have gone before us. Every person who has stood for life is to be honoured.

“If I have seen farther than others, it is because I was standing on the shoulder of giants” Isaac Newton

THE DREAM

In the dream I saw entire families, men, women and children marching around a court. Each person was worshipping, praying and decreeing as they walked together. I could hear the crying of children very clearly and loudly. The cry was continual, intense and demanded urgent attention. The crying out was getting louder in my dream and was impossible to ignore. There was a multitude of crying and the sound was unbearable to any compassionate heart.

The cry I heard was specifically from the unwanted children on earth. I was acutely aware this was a cry for justice of the multitudes of children now in heaven who had been aborted. This cry was heart piercing.

As in any dream, there is prophetic symbolism and I knew that I was observing a children’s home which represented heaven, and was full of love, peace and protection. These children were completely loved and completely secure in that love. They were now living in eternity and experienced no pain, no regret, no bitterness and no discomfort. They were completely fulfilled and completely at peace in the joy and security of God’s love for them. It stood out to me and is exceptionally important to note, there was no malice, bitterness or hatred toward their parents on earth. Only love. Only grace. Only tenderness. These aborted children LOVED their parents and desired for them to know that as they emulated their Heavenly Father. They, in fact, joined the Father in desiring the fullness of their parent's destiny. The unwanted on earth were not unwanted in heaven. They were very much embraced and lived in the magnificence of eternities family, where they neither missed out or felt without in any way which profoundly affected me.

However, they each knew that their voice still had power. Their cry of pure love and grace still resounded from heaven calling for life on the earth. As part of the great crowd of witnesses, their voice still echoed today. Their short lives released a powerful cry for justice that the Father had heard.

The cry in my dream I heard did not come from pain. The cry was birthed from a collective call for an army to arise on earth in one voice decreeing LIFE. The cry I was hearing came from the courts of heaven trumpeting in a groundswell of warriors in the nations. Their cry announced the beginning of the end to a season where the stronghold of abortion had the upper hand and they announced the day where abortion lost its grip. Their cry could no longer be ignored on the earth, and it demanded ears to be opened and hearts be moved.

The cry of the unwanted was incredibly marked by grace. It demanded urgent attention and yet it equally carried a tangible grace which profoundly affected me. This grace was a mantle of due justice being released that propelled the life movement into accelerated favour. The longer I listened, the more their cry escalated in intensity.

Once again I was drawn to those marching around the court. Their worship and prayer was anointed with breakthrough and powerful. It was specifically directed toward releasing Heavens’ decree of justice for those aborted, but also those still to be born.

The crying was unrelenting, intense, and loud, and it could not be easily ignored yet I noticed in the dream, that many had drowned it out and had incredulously become deaf to the cry. There were many reasons for this, but regardless of the reason, I saw grace opening previously deaf ears. Their cry WOULD BE HEARD.

DUE TIME FOR JUSTICE

Those who marched around the court could hear the intensity and urgency and their response was to worship, pray and keep decreeing. Their ears were attuned to the cry for LIFE and they couldn’t ignore what they heard. There was a knowing “this is the appointed time.” To not give up but instead advance in confidence. There was much noise trying to drown out the cry for justice but these ones knew it was only the noise breaking through resistance and refused to be distracted. I understood that the cry I heard was an urgent call to prayer urging the body to decree life, and announcing a due time for justice.

BREAKTHROUGH PROPHETIC WORSHIP IS KEY

Breakthrough prophetic worship was key to seeing these walls come down in the courts of the earth. As I observed those marching, their worship specifically carried joy and confidence. I wondered how they could decree with such grace and joy until again I heard the unrelenting cry of the unwanted on earth and my ears were acutely aware of the sound of grace that didn’t just accompany their voice, but was intrinsically a part of their cry. Their cry comes from another realm where God’s will is always carried out perfectly and in perfect love. They have no fear. They have no doubt. Earth will hear their call for life. Father God was raising up a multitude upon multitude of warriors marked by the cry for life.

WE MUST PICK UP THE CALL FOR LIFE

I watched an entire family march together, singing, praying, holding hands whilst decreeing life. It was profoundly beautiful and compelling. Their faces were fierce but not angry. Their eyes carried grace and a holy fire! They were marked by unrelenting courage and determination. As they marched and prayed, they picked up unwanted children and placed them on their shoulders. I understood that this was an invitation from Heaven to those who have stood back, to boldly pick up the cause of the cry for life. I saw even children picking up this call for life and powerfully shifting the atmosphere. The cry for life was a mountain that MUST be levelled now. Future lives depend upon it. This cry must not be ignored but picked up and carried until we see the mountain levelled.

AND THE GOVERNMENT SHALL BE UPON HIS SHOULDER

I am reminded of Isaiah 9:6, “And the Government shall be upon His shoulder.”

I watched as crying children were picked up by many and placed on their shoulders which I understood was God decreeing justice in the courts of heaven that WILL impact the courts of the earth as we pick up and carry the call to decree justice and life. We are the head and not the tail and our decree carries the full authority of the King. Governments and high offices of influence will hear the cry for justice AS WE DECREE, WORSHIP and boldly ignore the taunts of Goliath.

I was aware of the truth that in the natural, the government truly shall be upon HIS shoulder. There is no office on earth that is higher than His office as King. The Government of Heaven and the decrees of the King supersede the government of Earth every time. I was aware of the urgency of the hour to partner with God’s roar and decree life.

BREAKTHROUGH IS IN THE COURAGEOUS ADVANCING

This is key in this critical hour of marching around strongholds to see the grip of lies broken and life enthroned. I was aware that this was a KEY BATTLE FOR THE BODY. This battle MUST be won. This fight for life was a PIVOTAL BATTLE that dethroned and dismantled significant strongholds. The enemy is determined to not lose this ground. Much of the fear, distractions and demonic attack coming at the body fiercely right now, is designed to blind and keep us from confidently standing in truth and seeing this Goliath destroyed. I was aware that the BREAKTHROUGH WAS IN THE COURAGEOUS ADVANCING FORWARD WITH GRACE.

GRACE WAS KEY AS WITHOUT GRACE MANY OF THE EARS WOULD REMAIN DEAF TO CRY FOR JUSTICE, AND MANY OF THE MOST EFFECTUAL WARRIORS WOULD REMAIN ON THE SIDELINES BECAUSE OF SHAME. GRACE IS THE GAME CHANGER. GRACE IS THE SECRET WEAPON.

GRACE IS A GAME CHANGER

GRACE was the game changer that is being released from heaven. The war against life is one of the greatest battles of our time. THIS BATTLE IS BIGGER THAN ABORTION as the ramifications will affect generations to come. It’s a showdown between light and dark, life and death and every mountain of influence will be affected by the outcome. Future looming giants that will have an impact on the unprecedented last days' harvest will be slain by these giant slayers arising now. The cry from heaven is to recognise the window open NOW for advancing forward in unity must be acted upon.

GOD IS RAISING UP WOMAN CHAMPIONS OF JUSTICE

Back to the dream, my attention was now drawn to a beautiful, worshipping Mother. This warrior picked up a crying, five-year-old girl and put her horizontally across her shoulders. As the girl was five, she was not small and even in the dream, this looked really awkward. I thought there must be an easier way to carry her. This Mum and Warrior then continued to march around the court, decreeing and worshipping all whilst carrying this crying child. I knew she was a mother of many, a mother of a new breed of warrior. God is raising up many powerful women warriors, many of whom from the hidden place, who will boldly champion justice.

I was transfixed by this warrior, and yet still aware of the sound of the unrelenting crying. I watched as she kept worshipping even as she carried the girl and marched, and the beauty, hope and power of this sound were compelling. The sound of hope not only released breakthrough, but was infectious and transferable, and was calling in others.

THERE'S A FRESH GRACE THAT WILL ENABLE WHAT SEEMS DIFFICULT TO BE CARRIED WITH EASE

What this woman was doing initially looked hard and awkward as she carried the girl horizontally on her shoulders. It was costing her something to pick this up, but I saw the determination in her eyes that this was not only worth it, but it MUST BE DONE. The girl looked too big and too heavy to be carried this way. But as I observed her carrying this weight, this woman made it look effortless, fun and beautiful. She made picking up the cry for life look attractive, compelling and desirable. The ease with which she carried the cause released a grace for others to follow. She carried contagiousness that even in my dream made me think, “why isn’t everyone doing this? It’s not that hard! It’s not as difficult as people think! Is victory not before us?” As she prayed, decreed and gracefully carried the cry of the unwanted MANY, yes MANY listened to her voice.

I saw many men, women and children join in marching. The sound of her voice and the sight of her marching with family attracted the attention of the media. The media was captivated by the grace and boldness of her voice. She carried the cause with ease. Joy, hope and grace were heard in the streets and turned the heads of those watching. This sound of the collective hearts cry for justice attracted a fresh look from the media. Her voice was compelling and influential as it carried grace. I knew grace was changing the landscape and would unlock the hearts of those who sat in the courts of earth and offices of influence.

CARRY GRACE

It was then, as only possible in a dream, I realised the 5-year-old girl on her shoulders represented the many aborted. I was suddenly aware HER NAME WAS GRACE.

Grace had a beauty that was beyond this world, and I knew her name was incredibly significant. Her beauty was eternal, powerful and strong. She signified a fresh wave of grace for this battle.

I now understood why carrying Grace is essential to see the laws of the land shift. Grace was crucial. Grace opened the door and compelled ears of the court to hear her voice for justice, as her voice was easily received and disarmed hardened hearts. I took note that Grace was not timid or ineffectual, but compelling and fierce despite being only a child. The love she exuded demolished dark strongholds. The cry for life from heaven only continued to get louder even as I looked at her, and I noticed that many who had previously been deafened to her cry were now hearing it.

Grace rested on the cry for life and every voice who stood for life. Fearless courage and pure heaven-sent fire were being released from heaven. I watched heaven decree a new day of grace for justice where justice has seemed delayed.

Again, I was intently aware there was an urgency in the dream. I understood despite the dark shadows, there is grace to contend for life right NOW. This ripe for justice moment must be exploited.

HEAVENS GRACE RESTS ON THE WARRIORS WHO WILL STAND, SPEAK AND CONTEND

The hour is pregnant with justice. It was a “for such a time as this” moment. Heaven's grace rests on the warriors who will stand, speak and contend. There’s a call to prayer from heaven that is crying out for the future unborn generations SO THAT THEY MAY LIVE.

I could hear the cry’s from heaven of the precious voices of the aborted children joining the cloud of witnesses as they decreed grace on those alive now who will carry their legacy to see abortion’s grip demolished. The cry was intense. The cry marked me and I knew it was marking a generation in numbers not previously seen. Had it not been for the heavenly grace in their cry I could not bear to listen any more. The cry of those lost to abortion had built and intensified over time. It seemed to me in the dream that all heaven anticipated the rising of this generation that would not turn back, and not give up in fighting to complete what others had begun. Life would triumph over death.

KEEP GOING. THE WINDOW OF OPPORTUNITY IS OPEN

It was then I understood, there is grace on the battle for life right now to see the laws change. This grace is releasing a fresh strength and vigour to keep going. This is why there is an urgency for now. Grace is available to those who will hear the cry and pick up the cause in prayer. Now is an urgent window of time to boldly advance. As I listened, the sound of the cry was sounding more like a heartbeat, to march to; a battle cry. It was the heartbeat of Heaven. Something was changing. This battle cry was the call to prayer. This call to prayer was penetrating the wider church and the atmosphere was charged for reformation at a governmental level.

ACCEPTED THINKING OF THE DAY WILL SHIFT

Suddenly in the dream, my eye was drawn to an older man sitting on the steps of the court who I knew represented “the accepted thinking of the day.” His countenance was disinterested, tired and hardened. Even though he sat on the steps of the court his ears were deafened to the constant cry for life going on in front of him. His ears had become deaf to the sound of their cry. I was completely astounded and deeply saddened that the court had not heard the cry for justice as in the dream my ears were unable to ignore the cry. I knew however, this would change.

THE CAUSE OF LIFE WILL CARRY A NEW SOUND

Then I noticed something different arising. A new sound was softening the hardest of hearts and transforming the face of activism and justice movements. (I must add this new face to activism in no way discredits or dishonours voices who have gone before. It’s a new wineskin I saw arising for a new season that owes its harvest to seeds already sown. It’s a new mantle of grace that will add favour to those already championing the cause of life)

HEARTS WILL HEAR THE CRY FOR LIFE

The man sitting on the stairs was visibly being undone by the grace and love these movements were exhibiting in their call for life. His own heart was encountering love which was healing offence and pain of the past. He was encountering grace that disarmed him and opened his ears to hear a new sound. Hope filled me as I realised the man sitting on the steps of the court had begun to hear the cry for life.

At first, it was faint and yet the more he saw that “Grace was on the shoulders” of those who carried the cause, the more he heard. His ears were hearing the cry of the unborn and were moved to see a new era ushered in.

As I looked back at him, I was overcome with grace for him. I became aware that he represented MULTITUDES whose ears had grown deaf for varying reasons but were encountering God’s grace in this season.

GRACE DEFEATS SHAME AND OPENS DOORS

I was again keenly aware GRACE WAS KEY IN THIS SEASON, AS WITHOUT GRACE MANY OF THE EARS IN HIGH PLACES WOULD REMAIN DEAF TO CRY FOR JUSTICE, AND MANY OF THE MOST EFFECTUAL WARRIORS WOULD REMAIN ON THE SIDELINES BECAUSE OF SHAME. GRACE IS THE GAME CHANGER. GRACE IS THE SECRET WEAPON.

A fresh wave of GRACE and weighty glory was the game changer that is being released from heaven. Grace was healing hearts and strengthening voices as much as it was opening ears. A weighty glory was coming to heal brokenness especially surrounding abortion. Advocating life would partner with advocating grace.

LIFE INITIATIVES WILL BE BIRTHED

I looked ahead and saw grace over many initiatives birthed to support life. Adoption, fostering and new initiatives I had no name for arose to support babies being born, and mothers to thrive. A new wave of grace healed the hearts of those who have been through an abortion and destroyed shame. This prompted many to arise as warriors for life, whose voice had previously been stifled by shame and pain. I saw babies, babies, babies and I saw DESTINIES born that re-shaped our nations.

DON’T BE DISCOURAGED BY WHAT LOOKS LIKE CLOSED EARS RIGHT NOW

It was important to not become discouraged by what looked like closed ears right now, as God was lavishing grace on their hearts even now and opening the ears of those who sat in high places. Decree the deaf ears open. Pray for their hearts. Pray the ears of those who sit in the courts of the earth will hear heavens call for life.

SOME OF THE LOUDEST DISTRACTORS WILL BECOME THE LOUDEST ADVOCATES

Some of the loudest voices for abortion will become the greatest of advocates for life. They are but one encounter away from personal transformation.

I see many having dreams, visions and encounters of their aborted children in heaven. This will impact their hearts with such deep grace that will arise as fierce advocates of justice. They will encounter the God of grace and love.

GOD IS SHINING THE SPOTLIGHT ON HEALTHY FAMILY

The spotlight was coming on families who worshipped and prayed together. In the dream, I saw families praying for life together and the spotlight coming on them. Media attention would highlight powerful women who walked in grace and divine authority. The media will show a different face of activism than they’ve shown before, a breed that battles in great wisdom and relevance for this generation. This strength and grace will disarm many hardened hearts and cause a re-thinking of values. The call to persistent worship, intercession and prophetic declaration was opening the ears of those who carried the power to shift laws and community attitudes. I saw a new sound and new prayer movement that transformed activism and attracted a new wave of powerful, grace-filled warriors that were marked by the fire of Elijah to break the stronghold of abortion.

JESUS IS CARRYING THE CRY OF THE UNBORN AND DECREEING JUSTICE

In the dream, I was aware I was in the days to come, and I took another look at those who faithfully carried the call for justice and as I looked I saw Jesus. Jesus looked at his faithful warriors with love and thankfulness. How dearly Jesus loved His faithful warriors for life… not a single effort had gone unnoticed and unrewarded by Him. I could still hear the crying and I was aware so did Jesus… the cry for justice was still ringing out.

I watched Jesus reach down and he picked up one of the crying children and put them on his shoulders. I then realised he was carrying the girl I knew in the dream as Grace on his shoulders. His heart carried them all. I knew Grace represented all those who had been aborted, and I knew Jesus put the cry of unwanted children on His Shoulders right in front of the court. Jesus stood in front of the court and carried the cry for life right in front of the court.

IMMEDIATELY THE CRYING STOPPED IN THE DREAM!!!

The silence only magnified the enormity of the victory. As I watched I wept as I looked at the fierce strength and grace of Jesus.

I began to hear a different sound of laughter and joy. The air felt clear, clean and crisp.

Just as the Government is upon His shoulders, Jesus is carrying this cry for life and decreeing a governmental shift.

GOD IS DECREEING SWIFT AND SUDDEN JUSTICE

I suddenly awoke, but as I was waking I was saying…..“AND THE CRYING STOPPED”

I saw a day of justice swiftly coming upon us. I awoke with a knowing that heaven was calling us to pray for life as the courts of heaven were decreeing a due season of justice.

PRAY PRAY PRAY AND THEN, PRAY
I knew we must keep praying….
The courts will hear the cry for justice that is coming from the courts of heaven

DECREE:

Psalm 8:2
You have built a stronghold by the songs of babies.
Strength rises up with the chorus of singing children.
This kind of praise has the power to shut Satan’s mouth.
Childlike worship will silence the madness of those who oppose you.

Proverbs 21:22
A warrior filled with wisdom ascends into the high place and releases regional breakthrough, bringing down the strongholds of the mighty.

OUR CALL TO PRAYER:
There’s a call to prayer and it carries grace for both the intercessor and all who are involved, but it equally carries a fierce breaker anointing for justice. Keep praying! The stronghold is breaking and the cry of the unborn will be heard. God is decreeing justice from the courts of heaven in the courts of the earth. Carry grace, and charge the gates.

Be very blessed, and infused with His Grace.

THE RISE OF THE HEALERS

By Nate Johnston • June 13, 2025
I believe we are in a window of time right now where God is turning the institutional church back into a hospital again. Just this sentence alone feels like a deep branding upon my heart because I’ve seen it in dreams increasing over the last year - a wounded and battered church and a bound world, but who will restore them? Recently, the Lord spoke to me through a personal experience. I had to go to the dentist for some intense tooth pain, and after visiting two different places neither would fix the issue. I knew there was something prophetic in it. Then the Lord said to me, “Many of my sick, broken, and demonized have been coming into churches, but they are not being delivered or set free.” Ah...there it was. But right now, God is raising up the healers again In a time when the earth more than ever before needs to see the rise of a healing church, a hospital church. Right now God is flipping the script on many ministries and institutions that have been focused on everything but the basics. We have not been doing what Luke 4:18-19 or Matthew 10:8-10 commands us to do. We have not been cleansing the lepers or healing the sick. We’ve drifted from the core of the great commission. The enemy has led us into side paths that do not transform people’s lives. But God is placing a fresh compassion on the Church and is renewing our love for people that sets people free. “When Jesus landed and saw a large crowd, he had compassion on them and healed their sick” — Matthew 4:14 If the enemy can make us love ministry more than we love people, if he can trap us in the idolatry of ministry we will fall out of love with the very ones we’re called to serve. Ouch! Yes, we will stop loving people, even though we’re still doing ministry technically but we have lost our true love that enables the power of God to come. And I’m not talking about a love that coddles people in their sin, tolerates demons, or keeps people brainwashed and yoked to false ideologies and fractured identities. I’m talking about the kind of love that walks hand in hand with truth, that drives out demons, and that stands at the crossroads and warns, “That’s not the way!” We need the kind of love that speaks straight and delivers people. Jesus walked in that kind of love. It was compassion that moved Him to perform great miracles. That’s what’s been missing in the Church. We’ve lost our compassion for people. We’ve lost our genuine love. We’re doing ministry for stats, KPIs, content, and reputation. Churches are trying to fill seats, recruit members, and collect tithes while people walk into our buildings bound, broken, addicted, demonized, and they are not being set free. But right now that is changing. The boardroom is being converted to an ER again! As we were leaving Pirate’s Cove on Saturday, the most powerful part of the day was still to come. Just after 6 p.m as the tide was in, a girl came up crying. Her friend asked if I could pray for her, and I did. As I prayed, I could tell she was under serious oppression, and for a few minutes, nothing shifted. But I refused to leave her the way she came. I asked the Lord what was happening. Instantly, I saw her life like a book. I saw shame and pain from the situations she’d walked through. Then I felt the intense love of the Father for her, and He said to me, “Tell her she is pure.” As soon as I said those words, she began to cough uncontrollably until the unclean spirit left. Then she asked to be baptized right there at Pirate’s Cove. It was a victory moment for her, but it was also a marking moment for me. I couldn’t understand at first why it impacted me so deeply. I’ve seen situations like this many times before. I never take them for granted, but this one felt profound. I realized later that it was God speaking loudly through this encounter. Right now, something fresh is happening around the earth. God is showing up in power. The Church is shaking off her chains and becoming who she was always meant to be. There’s an uprising - a movement leaving behind Christianity as usual. But it’s something much holier than we’ve seen before, and we’ll miss it if we’re not paying attention. God is after the broken and the lost. He’s leaving the ninety-nine for the one. He’s flipping the enemy’s lies and calling what was tainted, pure again. Lou Engle once asked, “What if California was the adulterous woman Jesus redeemed?” That day, as I prophesied, I heard myself say, “What if California is the woman at the well, waiting for a church to call her clean?” We have cursed our cities, our states, and our nations as though they are too far gone. But they are only one word away from redemption if the Church would only see God’s heart in the middle of the chaos. This is a time where we must walk in powerful truth and real love. Without both, the Church fails. Weak Christianity is afraid of offending people, so it keeps them bound in the name of kindness. Truth alone might drive out demons, but without love, it doesn’t draw the broken into intimacy with God. We are standing on the edge of something monumental, a move of God that is raw, wild, unpolished, and simple. As it says in Luke 4:18 - 19, “The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because he has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and recovery of sight for the blind, to set the oppressed free, to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor.” The days of the hospital church have begun. The days of power are returning. And the days of God’s love driving out darkness are here again. This is our call, to speak what the enemy has called unclean and declare it pure. That is our mandate. Now, let me speak directly to the healers. You know who you are. You know that God has marked you for miracles, signs, and wonders. You’ve known that you’re called to be His healing hands in this moment. But you’ve felt disqualified. You look at your life and feel broken. You’ve fallen. You still need healing. You feel like something inside of you is tainted or poisoned by the last few years of hard battle. You’ve been heavy in your soul, discouraged, and weary. That has been the enemy’s strategy all along, to wear down the healers. To bombard the ones called to bring true deliverance. And because of that, we’ve seen the rise of false deliverance ministries, false healers, counterfeit prophets, and wolves in sheep’s clothing. They’ve stepped into a vacuum because the real healers have been under attack and haven’t yet risen up. But I believe that this moment is a call to the healers to rise again. It’s time to step back into your calling. I had a vision of someone’s legs and I knew this was a prophetic picture of the healers. They were twisted and deformed and decommissioned. And the Lord said to me, “Speak strength to their legs. Speak strength to their backs. Speak strength to their bones.” Suddenly, in the vision, the legs straightened out and they were standing to their feet! I declare the same over you - that every part of your life that has felt out of place, twisted, wounded, or weary, let it be healed and realigned with the hope and truth of God. Healers, rise up. Get your strength back. Get your compassion back. Be healed and take your place. It is time to walk again in the power of God and the compassion of Jesus. So now, in the name of Jesus, I speak to every healer, every deliverer, every voice and vessel who has been marked by God for miracles, but has felt crushed under the weight of shame, warfare, disappointment, or disqualification. I declare over you - this is your resurrection moment. Where the enemy has tainted you, twisted your story, and tried to convince you that you are unclean or unworthy, I now declare by the blood of Jesus that you are being made clean. The stain of the past, the trauma, the compromise, and the confusion is being washed off of you in this moment. I speak a cleansing over your mind, your body, your heart, and your history. The blood still speaks a better word over you. Let every accusation from hell be silenced right now. I call your mantle out of the ashes. I call your voice back from the silence. I declare strength to your bones, fire to your belly, and clarity to your mind. Every dormant gift, every silenced word, every dream buried under discouragement come back to life now in Jesus’ name. Today as you read this you are not just being healed, you are being reinstated. You will no longer walk with a limp from old wounds. What the enemy meant for evil, God is now turning for your good. This is your commissioning moment. So rise, healers! Lay your hands on the sick, cleanse the lepers, deliver the bound, and set the captives free! 

STUCK IN LAST SEASON’S BATTLE BONDAGE? HE WILL NOT LEAVE YOU BEHIND!

By Nate Johnston • June 10, 2025
As I stood on the rocks at Pirates Cove yesterday, watching hundreds of people being baptized, I was overwhelmed by what I was seeing. History yet again was being written. I thanked God for the hunger that was present that day and the day before when we gathered - the countless people encountering the presence and power of God. Clearly, God is moving right now on the earth in a new and fresh way. But as I stood there, these words suddenly rose in my spirit - “He leaves no one behind” It rocked me thinking about the seasons in my life when I felt lonely, abandoned, and lost when people around me were experiencing the opposite. It’s easy in moments of heartache, hope deferred, and deep brokenness to feel like you’re the only one going through it. It’s easy to feel like others are advancing and thriving while you’re still stuck, and still broken. But I believe God wants to encourage those who feel stuck this week, those who feel left behind in the past seasons battle and battle weariness and bondage. Those who feel unable to move forward because of pain from the past and the wounds it inflicted. God is not going to leave you behind! I’m reminded of the man who sat by the Pool of Bethesda because he couldn’t walk. “One who was there had been an invalid for thirty-eight years… Then Jesus said to him, ‘Get up! Pick up your mat and walk.’ At once the man was cured” — John 5:1-9 That pool was surrounded by people who were sick, lame, and broken down, all hoping to be the one who got their fresh start. And right now in the midst of revival fires beginning to burn and something fresh that God is doing, many still feel stuck. David said it well in the psalms; “How long, Lord? Will you forget me forever? How long will you hide your face from me?” — Psalm 13:1 And like David many are saying; God, I don’t feel like I’ve moved anywhere. Nothing has shifted for me. I’m still dealing with the same situations, the same lack, the same health problems, the same relational and family issues. God, have You forgotten me?” But just like the man at the Pool of Bethesda, God did not leave him behind. Jesus went to him directly, healed him, and gave him a new beginning. Think of the woman at the well. “A Samaritan woman came to draw water, and Jesus said to her, ‘Will you give me a drink?’— John 4:4-7 She felt judged, abandoned, and lonely yet Jesus met her in that very place. He leaves no one behind. So I prophesy over you this week - You are going to have encounters with Jesus, where He reveals His heart to you in the very place you feel stuck. You’re going to experience the breakthrough power of God in your life, power that will shift you out of pain, brokenness, and those continual cycles of dysfunction, addiction, and torment. The Spirit of the Sovereign Lord is on me, to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim freedom for the captives and release from darkness for the prisoners.” Isaiah 61:1 And right now many are carrying the spiritual bondage from past seasons and it feels like a massive blockage in the road but they just don’t know how to get rid of it. It’s heavy, it’s like a poison that won’t seem to flush from your system. It’s got its roots in deep but it’s no match for the power of God. In a moment the Holy Spirit can take an axe to those obstacles. Right now as I’m writing this I see them in the spirit like bricks cemented in but the Lord is right now shaking them loose! They must go! Every demonic spirit hanging around you trying to keep you tethered to bondage leave now in Jesus name! Shame go! Unclean spirits leave! As we were leaving the gathering on Saturday (the day before Pentecost Sunday), I met an amazing woman of God. I got to witness her encounter Jesus in a powerful way. We saw God completely set her free from a demonic assignment that had been following her around. Then, I got to take part in her baptism there at the famous Pirates Cove. I could feel it - she had felt a little left behind. I hadn’t prayed for her that day. Yet just as we were walking out, God ordained that moment. It was her time. I felt the loving compassion of God so strongly because I’ve been in those moments. Moments when I felt forgotten. When it felt like no one saw me. But friend He sees you. You are not left behind. I imagine the day when the believers were in the upper room. They came out speaking in tongues. Yes, some mocked them. But imagine if you were one of the 500 originally there and the enemy lied to you, and you left the room too soon. You would have missed it. “God, I’ve faithfully served You… and I missed it?” Ouch… that is it right there. So many people feel like that right now. But the Lord wants you to know - You are seen. You are not forgotten. He will not leave you behind. Right now, He is rescuing you from the grip of that past season and ushering you into a new one even as you read these words. I command every chain, every tie to your past that’s held you back to break NOW in the mighty name of Jesus. And I pray that ALL yokes break off your life, and that the Holy Spirit fills your heart and cup anew in Jesus’ name. Now watch this week as God reveals himself to you in a new way. Through dreams. God kisses. Signs of His goodness. Your old chapter has ended. It’s time to step into the new. 

THE RISE OF THE HEALERS

By Nate Johnston • June 13, 2025
I believe we are in a window of time right now where God is turning the institutional church back into a hospital again. Just this sentence alone feels like a deep branding upon my heart because I’ve seen it in dreams increasing over the last year - a wounded and battered church and a bound world, but who will restore them? Recently, the Lord spoke to me through a personal experience. I had to go to the dentist for some intense tooth pain, and after visiting two different places neither would fix the issue. I knew there was something prophetic in it. Then the Lord said to me, “Many of my sick, broken, and demonized have been coming into churches, but they are not being delivered or set free.” Ah...there it was. But right now, God is raising up the healers again In a time when the earth more than ever before needs to see the rise of a healing church, a hospital church. Right now God is flipping the script on many ministries and institutions that have been focused on everything but the basics. We have not been doing what Luke 4:18-19 or Matthew 10:8-10 commands us to do. We have not been cleansing the lepers or healing the sick. We’ve drifted from the core of the great commission. The enemy has led us into side paths that do not transform people’s lives. But God is placing a fresh compassion on the Church and is renewing our love for people that sets people free. “When Jesus landed and saw a large crowd, he had compassion on them and healed their sick” — Matthew 4:14 If the enemy can make us love ministry more than we love people, if he can trap us in the idolatry of ministry we will fall out of love with the very ones we’re called to serve. Ouch! Yes, we will stop loving people, even though we’re still doing ministry technically but we have lost our true love that enables the power of God to come. And I’m not talking about a love that coddles people in their sin, tolerates demons, or keeps people brainwashed and yoked to false ideologies and fractured identities. I’m talking about the kind of love that walks hand in hand with truth, that drives out demons, and that stands at the crossroads and warns, “That’s not the way!” We need the kind of love that speaks straight and delivers people. Jesus walked in that kind of love. It was compassion that moved Him to perform great miracles. That’s what’s been missing in the Church. We’ve lost our compassion for people. We’ve lost our genuine love. We’re doing ministry for stats, KPIs, content, and reputation. Churches are trying to fill seats, recruit members, and collect tithes while people walk into our buildings bound, broken, addicted, demonized, and they are not being set free. But right now that is changing. The boardroom is being converted to an ER again! As we were leaving Pirate’s Cove on Saturday, the most powerful part of the day was still to come. Just after 6 p.m as the tide was in, a girl came up crying. Her friend asked if I could pray for her, and I did. As I prayed, I could tell she was under serious oppression, and for a few minutes, nothing shifted. But I refused to leave her the way she came. I asked the Lord what was happening. Instantly, I saw her life like a book. I saw shame and pain from the situations she’d walked through. Then I felt the intense love of the Father for her, and He said to me, “Tell her she is pure.” As soon as I said those words, she began to cough uncontrollably until the unclean spirit left. Then she asked to be baptized right there at Pirate’s Cove. It was a victory moment for her, but it was also a marking moment for me. I couldn’t understand at first why it impacted me so deeply. I’ve seen situations like this many times before. I never take them for granted, but this one felt profound. I realized later that it was God speaking loudly through this encounter. Right now, something fresh is happening around the earth. God is showing up in power. The Church is shaking off her chains and becoming who she was always meant to be. There’s an uprising - a movement leaving behind Christianity as usual. But it’s something much holier than we’ve seen before, and we’ll miss it if we’re not paying attention. God is after the broken and the lost. He’s leaving the ninety-nine for the one. He’s flipping the enemy’s lies and calling what was tainted, pure again. Lou Engle once asked, “What if California was the adulterous woman Jesus redeemed?” That day, as I prophesied, I heard myself say, “What if California is the woman at the well, waiting for a church to call her clean?” We have cursed our cities, our states, and our nations as though they are too far gone. But they are only one word away from redemption if the Church would only see God’s heart in the middle of the chaos. This is a time where we must walk in powerful truth and real love. Without both, the Church fails. Weak Christianity is afraid of offending people, so it keeps them bound in the name of kindness. Truth alone might drive out demons, but without love, it doesn’t draw the broken into intimacy with God. We are standing on the edge of something monumental, a move of God that is raw, wild, unpolished, and simple. As it says in Luke 4:18 - 19, “The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because he has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and recovery of sight for the blind, to set the oppressed free, to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor.” The days of the hospital church have begun. The days of power are returning. And the days of God’s love driving out darkness are here again. This is our call, to speak what the enemy has called unclean and declare it pure. That is our mandate. Now, let me speak directly to the healers. You know who you are. You know that God has marked you for miracles, signs, and wonders. You’ve known that you’re called to be His healing hands in this moment. But you’ve felt disqualified. You look at your life and feel broken. You’ve fallen. You still need healing. You feel like something inside of you is tainted or poisoned by the last few years of hard battle. You’ve been heavy in your soul, discouraged, and weary. That has been the enemy’s strategy all along, to wear down the healers. To bombard the ones called to bring true deliverance. And because of that, we’ve seen the rise of false deliverance ministries, false healers, counterfeit prophets, and wolves in sheep’s clothing. They’ve stepped into a vacuum because the real healers have been under attack and haven’t yet risen up. But I believe that this moment is a call to the healers to rise again. It’s time to step back into your calling. I had a vision of someone’s legs and I knew this was a prophetic picture of the healers. They were twisted and deformed and decommissioned. And the Lord said to me, “Speak strength to their legs. Speak strength to their backs. Speak strength to their bones.” Suddenly, in the vision, the legs straightened out and they were standing to their feet! I declare the same over you - that every part of your life that has felt out of place, twisted, wounded, or weary, let it be healed and realigned with the hope and truth of God. Healers, rise up. Get your strength back. Get your compassion back. Be healed and take your place. It is time to walk again in the power of God and the compassion of Jesus. So now, in the name of Jesus, I speak to every healer, every deliverer, every voice and vessel who has been marked by God for miracles, but has felt crushed under the weight of shame, warfare, disappointment, or disqualification. I declare over you - this is your resurrection moment. Where the enemy has tainted you, twisted your story, and tried to convince you that you are unclean or unworthy, I now declare by the blood of Jesus that you are being made clean. The stain of the past, the trauma, the compromise, and the confusion is being washed off of you in this moment. I speak a cleansing over your mind, your body, your heart, and your history. The blood still speaks a better word over you. Let every accusation from hell be silenced right now. I call your mantle out of the ashes. I call your voice back from the silence. I declare strength to your bones, fire to your belly, and clarity to your mind. Every dormant gift, every silenced word, every dream buried under discouragement come back to life now in Jesus’ name. Today as you read this you are not just being healed, you are being reinstated. You will no longer walk with a limp from old wounds. What the enemy meant for evil, God is now turning for your good. This is your commissioning moment. So rise, healers! Lay your hands on the sick, cleanse the lepers, deliver the bound, and set the captives free! 

STUCK IN LAST SEASON’S BATTLE BONDAGE? HE WILL NOT LEAVE YOU BEHIND!

By Nate Johnston • June 10, 2025
As I stood on the rocks at Pirates Cove yesterday, watching hundreds of people being baptized, I was overwhelmed by what I was seeing. History yet again was being written. I thanked God for the hunger that was present that day and the day before when we gathered - the countless people encountering the presence and power of God. Clearly, God is moving right now on the earth in a new and fresh way. But as I stood there, these words suddenly rose in my spirit - “He leaves no one behind” It rocked me thinking about the seasons in my life when I felt lonely, abandoned, and lost when people around me were experiencing the opposite. It’s easy in moments of heartache, hope deferred, and deep brokenness to feel like you’re the only one going through it. It’s easy to feel like others are advancing and thriving while you’re still stuck, and still broken. But I believe God wants to encourage those who feel stuck this week, those who feel left behind in the past seasons battle and battle weariness and bondage. Those who feel unable to move forward because of pain from the past and the wounds it inflicted. God is not going to leave you behind! I’m reminded of the man who sat by the Pool of Bethesda because he couldn’t walk. “One who was there had been an invalid for thirty-eight years… Then Jesus said to him, ‘Get up! Pick up your mat and walk.’ At once the man was cured” — John 5:1-9 That pool was surrounded by people who were sick, lame, and broken down, all hoping to be the one who got their fresh start. And right now in the midst of revival fires beginning to burn and something fresh that God is doing, many still feel stuck. David said it well in the psalms; “How long, Lord? Will you forget me forever? How long will you hide your face from me?” — Psalm 13:1 And like David many are saying; God, I don’t feel like I’ve moved anywhere. Nothing has shifted for me. I’m still dealing with the same situations, the same lack, the same health problems, the same relational and family issues. God, have You forgotten me?” But just like the man at the Pool of Bethesda, God did not leave him behind. Jesus went to him directly, healed him, and gave him a new beginning. Think of the woman at the well. “A Samaritan woman came to draw water, and Jesus said to her, ‘Will you give me a drink?’— John 4:4-7 She felt judged, abandoned, and lonely yet Jesus met her in that very place. He leaves no one behind. So I prophesy over you this week - You are going to have encounters with Jesus, where He reveals His heart to you in the very place you feel stuck. You’re going to experience the breakthrough power of God in your life, power that will shift you out of pain, brokenness, and those continual cycles of dysfunction, addiction, and torment. The Spirit of the Sovereign Lord is on me, to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim freedom for the captives and release from darkness for the prisoners.” Isaiah 61:1 And right now many are carrying the spiritual bondage from past seasons and it feels like a massive blockage in the road but they just don’t know how to get rid of it. It’s heavy, it’s like a poison that won’t seem to flush from your system. It’s got its roots in deep but it’s no match for the power of God. In a moment the Holy Spirit can take an axe to those obstacles. Right now as I’m writing this I see them in the spirit like bricks cemented in but the Lord is right now shaking them loose! They must go! Every demonic spirit hanging around you trying to keep you tethered to bondage leave now in Jesus name! Shame go! Unclean spirits leave! As we were leaving the gathering on Saturday (the day before Pentecost Sunday), I met an amazing woman of God. I got to witness her encounter Jesus in a powerful way. We saw God completely set her free from a demonic assignment that had been following her around. Then, I got to take part in her baptism there at the famous Pirates Cove. I could feel it - she had felt a little left behind. I hadn’t prayed for her that day. Yet just as we were walking out, God ordained that moment. It was her time.

I command every chain, every tie to your past that’s held you back to break NOW in the mighty name of Jesus. And I pray that ALL yokes break off your life, and that the Holy Spirit fills your heart and cup anew in Jesus’ name. Now watch this week as God reveals himself to you in a new way. Through dreams. God kisses. Signs of His goodness. Your old chapter has ended. It’s time to step into the new. 

ARE YOU AT A THRESHOLD OF FAITH?

By Nate Johnston • June 6, 2025
I have some encouragement for the pioneers. Over the last few weeks, I’ve kept hearing this language - that we are at thresholds of faith. What is a threshold? A threshold is defined as: the point of entering or beginning something new. So, what is a threshold of faith? A threshold of faith is a place you come to when you can no longer keep operating or living within the confines of your previous limitations. God is leading you into a significant breakthrough in that area to expand you and prepare you for what’s coming. Thresholds of faith at first feel like pressure. They feel emotionally triggering. They feel like the enemy is warring against your mind. It can feel even feel like a rollercoaster of soul highs and lows as God brings precious things to the surface to free you and lighten you. Why? Because God is pulling you higher, and the enemy is trying to keep you lower. God is calling you to fly like an eagle, while the enemy wants to keep you grounded with the turkeys. In this calling we go from glory to glory with God (2 Corinthians 3:18). So He’s always leading us into greater levels of truth about who we are and about our calling as sons and daughters, as leaders, and as fathers and mothers. There are always deeper dimensions of capacity, anointing, character, and fruit that we are meant to walk in. So we go through thresholds of faith not because something is wrong or because things are falling apart, but because we’ve asked Him for more. This pressure is the very thing we’ve been praying for. But we often forget - before breakthrough comes, God upgrades our internal operating system. If He brings us into breakthrough without transformation, we’ll crash and burn. The issue is that In this consumer-Christian culture we’ve inherited, we want our circumstances to change, but we often resist the internal transformation required. We avoid deliverance. We avoid healing. We avoid conviction. We avoid the refining fire. We want the goods without the fire. We want the promise without the pruning. But it doesn’t work like that. Right now, the Lord is trying to pull us higher, but there’s been a battle. There’s been tension. And there are moments where everything around you feels like it’s in ruins. Promises haven’t come to pass and God didn’t come through. That’s where the fight is because it feels too late, like it’s the eleventh hour and so how can you trust God again when your last promise didn’t come to pass? By faith even Sarah herself received the ability to conceive, even beyond the proper time of life, since she considered Him faithful who had promised.” - Hebrews 11:11 Sarah’s breakthrough looked impossible. She was past the point of fruitfulness. But God was working internally. She had to shift her focus to His ability, not her own. She had to stop striving and simply trust His miracle-working power. That’s how you know you’re at a threshold - you feel barren. You feel like nothing is working. And yet, God is asking you to believe again. To dream again. To step forward into something you don’t even have faith for yet. He’s not asking for perfect faith. He’s asking for a yes. Thresholds often feel like the most broken, most vulnerable, most disqualified place you’ve ever been. And that’s exactly where God chooses to expand you. Not when everything’s in order. Not when you feel strong. It’s when you feel empty, unworthy, and unprepared that He calls you into the new. As I was praying about this, I kept hearing the word “Jordan” and I instantly knew what the Lord was showing me. In the Bible, the Jordan River represents thresholds of calling, identity, and breakthrough. Joshua 3:17 – The Israelites crossed the Jordan into the Promised Land. 2 Kings 2:8 – Elijah struck the Jordan before being taken up. 2 Kings 2:14 – Elisha crossed back with a double portion. Matthew 3:13 – Jesus was baptized in the Jordan, then led into the wilderness. Genesis 32:22 – Jacob crossed the brook Jabbok (connected to the Jordan), leaving behind his old identity and life. I believe we are at the Jordan right now with our foot about to step in. Oh not deeper waters! It’s scary. What if I can’t swim? What if I trip? That’s what we feel in this moment. I’ve felt it in my own life where God is stretching me and I know it’s for my benefit. But in the natural, it looks like warfare, mental attack, depletion and robbery, failure, closed doors, confusion, and feeling out of your depth. Why? Because God is revealing the places you’ve placed your trust, your identity in and is revealing where you leant on your hustle, your gifting, and your own strength. Those things can’t sustain you anymore. And at the same time, the enemy is trying to discourage you, to make you give up right at the point of the threshold. He wants you to break right before your breakthrough. But God is asking you: Will you trust Me in this moment? Will you believe even when it doesn’t look like it’s working? A few months ago, I was in that exact place surrounded by doubt and pressure. And I heard the Lord whisper “The only way to survive this season is to stay at My feet. Stay in My presence.” That’s the key to crossing the threshold. Not knowledge. Not connections. Not hustle. Just surrender. So I prophesy this over you now - Just as Caleb and Joshua lingered in the tent and came out with a different spirit, so will you. You will cross the threshold with new eyes, new ears, and a new heart. Even now, God is breaking off the old operating system. He is breaking off the pain and reproach of your past. “Today I have rolled away the reproach of Egypt from you.” - Joshua 5:9 The shame, the failure, the false labels they are being cut away. You are being recommissioned. This threshold of faith is the breakthrough you’ve been praying for and it’s time to step over in Jesus name! 

WHEN JEZEBEL SENDS YOU INTO ISOLATION

By Nate Johnston • June 3, 2025
One of the greatest epidemics of the church is breaking right now. And as we start this week, I want to pray over you and prophesy into your life especially if you’ve been isolated by the enemy or been in a season of feeling very disconnected from other believers and from people. If you’ve seen attack and warfare on your relationships, marriages, your kids, and those around you… If you’ve gone through season-after-season of wrong alignments, unhealthy coverings, Sauls instead of fathers & mothers, all while being surrounded by wolves... Or if you’ve just been rejected over and over again, and it’s sent you into isolation. I believe the Lord is speaking to us all in this season. I believe we are seeing a spiritual movement both on a micro and a macro level right now to shift this tide. We’re seeing the Lord expose an assignment that has been allowed and tolerated in the body of Christ for too long. That assignment is isolation. It’s a tactic of the Jezebel spirit, one that has hidden easily within the institutional church paradigm and its thrived within the current culture of the church. But the Lord is weeding it out, exposing it, and bringing us back into the revelation of family and belonging. That truth is counteracting and unloosing the bonds of this demonic principality because people are no longer interested in a nice sermon if they have to go home and be alone in the week. This spirit has worked overtime on us. It’s a principality that hasn’t just broken apart the body of Christ into factions and denominations. It’s also stopped the most powerful voices, those carrying truth, and authority from rising into their place. It’s created a cancel culture within the church. An isolation culture. It’s created antisocial behavioral norms within the church, and we’ve accepted it for too long. But I prophesy today - That is all shifting. I prophesy it’s shifting over your life most importantly. As I was praying into this, I asked the Lord why Jezebel seems so invested in creating this kind of division and isolation. And He said that Jezebel recognizes the power and anointing that comes when the church walks in unity. That’s the macro. The Jezebel spirit knows that when believers support one another, when we link arms, there is an anointing that is unleashed. Because if it can isolate - it can assassinate. Let me say that again - If Jezebel can isolate, it can assassinate. Why do you think so many people can attend church on a Sunday and still feel utterly alone? Why is it accepted that we go to events and meetings and conferences, but still lack genuine connection? The church has often wrapped mission in religious activity, while relational connection, the very essence of family has been lost. It’s led us into pain and deep spiritual disconnection. And it’s time for this to shift. As I continued to pray, the Lord reminded me of the seasons in my own life where this spirit came after us again and again. I remembered being in churches where the nature of our calling led to sudden rejection, pushing us out of community. I remembered delivering a warning word to leaders, and immediately being outcast. I remembered being in a toxic work environment, where a Jezebel-influenced boss physically isolated me in a separate building so she could bully me. And I remembered the many times this happened in ministry spaces. It’s happened over and over again and we have all become used to it. We’ve learned to operate alone. And we’ve called it “normal” ministry life. We say the church is a family, but so many have lived as lone rangers even inside a church setting. But this is breaking now! Look at Elijah in 1 Kings 18. Jezebel threatens him. And he runs for his life. He hides in fear. He isolates. And even though God looks after him, there are a few things that take place in that moment that I believe the Lord is highlighting now as a blueprint for us. First, Elijah is fed. I see this in a few lights - one as the fresh manna from heaven and sustenance building him up again. Secondly, in light of the breaking bread of Acts 2 pointing to God leading him out of isolation. And thirdly as the bread of deliverance. Next he’s reminded of the still-small-voice because fear had drowned it out. In isolation and fear, the voice of the Lord pulls us out because we are so bombarded by lies and it’s the enemies lies that keep us there. Right now the lies that sent you there need to be broken. Then what happens? Elijah wraps his mantle around his face and leaves the cave which is prophetically representative of choosing to pick up what we dropped when we went through the pain of slander and accusation that led us to isolation in the first place. It’s picking up our calling again. Oh but it’s also more. It’s choosing to allow your heart to let people in after a season of being wounded. I believe this is the invitation from the Lord right now. To leave the cave. To leave the place of isolation. I know it’s easier said than done. I know many of you are afraid, and rightfully so. You’ve been burned. You’ve been rejected. But there is a grace right now to break this assignment of isolation and assassination that has put your gifting on pause and your purpose on the back burner. This is a season of finding your tribe. Finding the people who will lift your arms. It’s time to step out of religious, controlled environments and into true community. Into spiritual family. There is a remnant rising for this moment and we are linking arms while creating safe spaces. Pastors and leaders from all walks of life are laying their brands in the dust and choosing connection over control. It’s the Acts 2 core calling us back to breaking bread. This is the priority now. We are better together. Healthier together. Even COVID was a prophetic image of the enemy’s plan to isolate. But we’re saying no more. We will not let this spirit mute our voices or steal our destinies. We need each other. So I prophesy over you: This moment right now marks the breaking of isolation. Loneliness is breaking off of you. It’s time to find your people I prophesy this week you will feel something stirring on this front. A stirring. A longing. Your heart beginning to feel again. And bondages will break in the process. You’ll feel the shift inside and see it on the outside as God brings this into being. I prophesy - New environments, new rooms, new tables places you never imagined will open to you. God can do it in a short time. But I also challenge you , you need to step out. Start walking toward the community God has prepared for you. Because isolation is over In Jesus’ name.
