I HEARD THE LORD SAY “IT’S GO TIME, THIS IS THE BABY YOU DIDN’T EXPECT!

I HEARD THE LORD SAY “IT’S GO TIME, THIS IS THE BABY YOU DIDN’T EXPECT!

In the last week I’ve been consumed by a reoccurring theme the Lord keeps speaking to me about which is that we are in a moment of time where God is DE-COMMISSIONING and COMMISSIONING the people of God. There has been such an increased angelic activity to both decloak the old, mantle the body of Christ with the new, as well as distributing a fresh UNCTION and OIL, and a fresh FIRE and fuel to run forward.

IT’S A GREEN LIGHT

For days I kept seeing the same vision over and over of a green lighting flashing that then turned solid green and I heard the lord say “TELL THEM IT’S GO TIME!” and I felt such a commissioning presence in His voice and a POWER that was literally LAUNCHING people in this season who are carrying KEY and SIGNIFICANT kingdom expressions, projects, ministries, and creativity that would be catalysts for the rest of the body of Christ.

The word “GO” kept being illuminated in my spirit and the passage where Jesus commissions the disciples in Mark 16:15. 
The word “Go” in Greek is “poreuomai” which means “to transport, move something from one destination to another, to go or depart, and comes from the word “poros” which is a passageway to journey through. God is commissioning us with a GO that is drawing out what we carry so we can distribute it.

This is especially significant for those who have felt almost restrained from putting their foot on the accelerator in the past few months as if the timing wasn’t right to launch and release in certain areas. There has been many shifting and moving parts and components that have needed to align and many in the next few weeks and leading into June will not just feel a PERMISSION to release but also a CLARITY as if suddenly all the pieces connected and made sense. This is where the dots begin to connect and the road is more defined than it has in months passed. God is activating the MOVEMENT that you are carrying and saying that it’s time for you to RUN with it!

THE BABY YOU DIDN’T EXPECT

Many are going to give birth to movements and ministries they didn’t even know they carried at all. “This will be the baby you didn’t expect!” I heard the Holy Spirit say. So many have been walking around like spiritually barren Hannah’s not even knowing they are carrying the prophetic promise to their generation. I prophesy that your barren winter season HAS ENDED and just when you thought your days of dreaming and birthing were done God is going to birth something through you that you didn’t see coming and others won’t be able to comprehend why God would give you such honor and favor.

I also felt this was speaking into the nations right now where things have looked bleak, that God was birthing an UNEXPECTED move of God that wouldn’t come the same way we have seen it come in years past that would AWAKEN, ACTIVATE, and ARM the church into action. God is reviving revival-carriers in the earth and igniting torch bearers that have lost their flame. I sensed such a strong “call-back” to posts long forgotten and those who have fallen along the way restored. Even as the conversation on life in the womb continues to spread and laws and governmental decisions are being made I’m hearing that God is going to do the unexpected. Things are swinging back to life!

Prepare for the unexpected church because God is going to reveal himself more and more to the world in the days to come.

MEDIA ERUPTION/DISRUPTIONS

I kept seeing an “ON AIR” glowing sign like you would see in a tv or radio studio and I sensed that there was a birthing of many new media focussed ministries that weren’t going be more white noise on the airwaves or in social media platforms but were anointed to DISRUPT the noise with an ERUPTION of Gods GLORY. God is commissioning people in this hour to give their lives to being the light in media and restore truth and exalt the name of Jesus. Media apostles are arising that will be innovators to build kingdom platforms and creative outlets for the kingdom to shine its light even brighter. Many reading this right now have been been in a tug of war over this because you know you have truth to release but you are seeing beyond the confines and limitations of current platforms. “BUILD with me, DREAM with me!” Says the lord.

I also felt that the “On Air” sign was indicative of this season of TAKING BACK THE AIR for the kingdom. It was a prophetic sign and public declaration of this season that the enemy may have had the media airwaves for a long time but now the SONS and DAUGHTERS are ON AIR and things are changing!

THE CAROUSEL & THE ROOM OF MIRRORS

I had a dream last week I was at a carnival and the same situation repeated itself. Firstly I was on a carousel that didn’t seem to ever stop and I wanted to get off. It didn’t feel fun or exciting in fact I felt nauseous and frightened because I felt like I was missing out on something else. Suddenly I was in a room of crazy mirrors that were distorting what I looked like and I was lost in this confusing, unsettling maze unable to find the exit. The next morning the Lord said to me that there was an ending and severing of an assignment to trap and delay people from entering their promise. It was an assignment of the enemy to lure and divert, distort, and trap people in a cycle they felt unable to move on from. Such a spirit of confusion has been in people that they haven’t been able to discern truth and even lost their identity in the process. I command that demonic assignment ENDED in Jesus name!

THE STOP ON STOPLIGHT ALIGNMENTS

Many of you are feeling the uncomfortable decommissioning of old assignments and alignments but Holy Spirit has been highlighting a specific de-commissioning happening in the spirit right now.

Many of you have been surrounded by opposing voices that don’t want you to move forward. They are the STOP-LIGHTS in your life that have continually held you back by showing up at every turn to make sure you never rise up higher and never see the fulfilment of dreams. You can’t be surrounded by those voices moving forward because YOUR VOICE, YOUR EXPRESSION is too valuable to be shut down and faded out. God is bringing exposure to the assignments and alignments that keep zapping your strength and taking the wind out of your sails. Instead God wants to surround you with family who are safe to grow with, dream with, and show your pearls to without fear of them being trampled.

Watch as God severs these unequally yoked ties and gives you back your passion and ferocity you felt you lost in the past season living under the weight of people’s words and control. Remember you don’t wrestle flesh and blood but you can’t keep allowing the enemy to steal your voice through these relational avenues. God is JEALOUSLY calling you out of bondage to usurping and disabling agendas that only leave you empty, passionless and your voice silenced. I prophesy YOUR ROAR IS COMING BACK!

DELAY ENDS HERE

I was talking to the Lord yesterday morning when he highlights a scripture to me from Revelation 10:5-7;

“Then the mighty angel whom I saw astride the sea and the land raised his right hand to heaven and swore an oath by him who lives for an eternity of eternities, the Creator of heaven and earth and sea and all that is in them: No more delay! For in the day when the seventh angel is to sound his trumpet, the mystery of God will be fulfilled, just as he announced to his servants the prophets”

As I read this scripture I felt an incredible presence of the Lord in my room as a strong sense that the Lord was dealing with delay on being able to MOVE FORWARD in this season. Many people are pushing hard and trying their best to get ahead and be good stewards of their prophetic words but feel like there is little to no fruit showing for their efforts. Like the cogs seem to be moving slower than expected. BUT I believe God is DE-COMMISSIONING the delay that has been against you and your promises.

I prophesy that this is your GREEN LIGHT, NO DELAY season of UNEXPECTED BIRTHING, RELEASING, FLOWING with the Spirit, and RUNNING forward. The ending of disabling voices and influences, the season of a NEW SONG arising, the AMPLIFICATION of your voice, and the RESTORATION of clarity, purpose, and JOY in Jesus name!

I have a prophetic word for you that I believe is a powerful prophetic key and instruction for those who’ve been dealing with areas of injustice and warfare delaying breakthrough. I believe this word is going to break things open in the spirit, things that have been hanging over you, looming over you, and warring against you from every side for such a long period of time. This whole past weekend I’ve felt an agitation in my spirit that I normally only feel when I am pushed or pressed into a corner in my life but I knew it was intercessory. I knew it was an indicator of sorts that I was picking up on something taking place in the spirit. At first it felt like I was brooding over America, over California, and over the state of the nation and the heart of the church in America. Then it shifted and I found myself praying over Australia and the nations feeling the injustices taking place in so many ways. But no matter how much I prayed this burden lingered so I began to really ask the Lord, “What am I sensing? What am I feeling?” Then suddenly I went into a vision. I saw what I knew to be from 2 Samuel 6 where David danced as the ark was brought back to its rightful place. But what I saw in the vision felt not just dancing as a worship or celebration but more militant. It felt like a fight in the spirit of a taking back of ground. It was fierce and potent and I could feel the anointing coming off of it like it was a divine readjustment and a coming back into alignment with heaven’s order. This shifted the way I saw this historical and prophetic moment. It was worship yes, but it was a spiritual turning point unto national restoration - the return of God’s tangible presence to the heart of the nation after a long absence. It was not some hippy dance of a king that was happy to see a treasured artifact come back to its proper resting place, it was spontaneous, passionate, and unashamed yet It was also politically and spiritually declaring Gods kingship above all. As if David was physically declaring victory over injustice, corruption, and spiritual darkness. Wow! And so I said, “Lord, what am I seeing?” And I heard, “It’s the dancing upon injustice.” Instantly it clicked that this is what is taking place right now. It’s happening in the nation of America and it’s happening in the nations of the Earth. There is a divine shift taking place where God is actually asking the Body of Christ to step into an intercessory place to see a divine reversal of the robbery and injustices that have been occurring. God is bringing things back into order. He’s turning the hearts of nations and He’s turning things around. Then I heard the Lord say “I’m turning back the clock over the nation of America.” I saw a clock begin to tick backward then faster, and faster, and faster. And I knew it was connected to the dance. The dance of intercession reversed the clock. It was the intercession that actually turned back the clock of time, turned back the enemy’s hand that had laid waste and ruin upon the nations. Then I saw it on a micro level where individuals all around the Earth began feeling this agitation as something started shifting, and then I heard it again “It’s time to dance upon injustice!” And right now, so many of us are feeling this agitation. We’re feeling pushback. We’re feeling discontent. We’re feeling frustration in our spirit. But I want to tell you is that this frustration is actually the Lord leading you to dance upon injustices in your nation, in your city, in your region but even now in your own life. You have to understand, we’ve been in a cycle of time where injustices have mounted up. They’ve piled up. And what happens when injustices and robberies and warfare pile up over time? It’s like it blots out the sun and you’re unable to see what God is doing anymore. Hope deferred sets in. Constant robbery makes you weary, because you’ve been putting out fires in your own strength just to keep clearing the way enough to survive. Eventually, you no longer see what God is doing. You no longer remember Him as the Justice-Giver (Isaiah 30:18), as the One who redeems your life from destruction (Psalm 103:4), as the Judge who slams down the gavel in your favor (Psalm 7:11). But let me tell you something - right now, we’re in a moment where the Lord is saying “The key in this moment is to dance upon injustice. And won’t I do it? Won’t I shift all of these things around? Won’t I turn back the clock!even in your own life?” That is what the Lord is saying over you! So right now I’m breaking off the hope deferred, and the weariness of the fight in the mighty name of Jesus! Let the frustration you’ve been feeling this week turn into a dance. Let it turn into intercession. I want to encourage you this week - fight back in the spirit. Fight back not with your head, not with your soul, not with your mind but with your spirit. Begin to dance upon injustice and in the face of the mocking situations in your life you will say what David said: “I will become even more undignified than this” 2 Samuel 6:22 I believe therein lies the key for us as the Church this week - Don’t hold back. Dance upon injustice. Be more undignified Church. PUSH BACK THE DARKNESS! DEFY THE SPIRIT OF THIS AGE! PICK UP YOUR AUTHORITY AGAIN! This is also a governmental decree for us. We must shift. We must come out of our caves. We must come out of timidity. We must stop trying to pander to the culture of this world and to those who don’t understand spiritual things, spiritual realities, and spiritual mechanics. We must call things as they are. The world Is severely blinded. They don’t see what you do. And much of the church are also very influenced by the enemy, blinded, milk fed, and have no discernment. But regardless you must push through. This week, as you dance upon injustice, it’s going to break off the fear of man that’s been keeping you caged and muzzled. It’s going to unleash the prophetic voice that God has given you in this hour that has been silenced. Now watch as God turns back the clock. This week I’m praying that the funds that you’ve been needing to move ahead will come. That the things God has prepared for you to inherit, you will step into. That the doors that need to open will swing wide. That the cases held up in courtrooms spiritually and naturally must be released this week. God is bringing finality to situations in your life that have been in limbo. He’s finalizing and bringing closure to those financial situations, to those relational situations, to those health situations. Suddenly, solutions will come. God is clearing the debris and clearing the overheads of your life. If you believe it, this week begin to dance. Begin to pray. Begin to decree. Begin to prophesy. Break out of that place of timidity, fear, and feeling depleted and defeated because the Lord say “Dance upon injustice and watch Me do the work.”

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!

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!

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.

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!
