IGNORE THE HORNETS NEST BEING STIRRED - GOD IS CLEARING THE WAY!

In a dream the other night I was sitting with the Lord and in front of me I could see the horizon except that there was this thick layer of fog that was in front of me that was stopping me from being able to see ahead.


And the Lord said to me, "It is now time for the scales to be removed from your eyes and from your heart and from your soul. And this is an hour that I am clearing out every bit of debris and every blockage and every hindrance to you seeing clearly the road ahead that I have for you."


He said, "This is an hour that I'm giving you fresh vision. This is an hour that I'm giving you eyes to see the future that I have planned for you.


"The future that the enemy has tried to stop you from seeing, the future that the enemy has wanted you disconnected from so that you would lose hope and that you would crumble on the battlefield that you were in so that you would give up in the middle of what looks like a wilderness, but it's only moments and steps away from fruitfulness and advancing."


"And this is an hour," says the Lord, "I'm giving you back your joy. I'm giving you back your hope and I'm giving you back your ability to connect with My vision again for your life, for the enemy has tried to keep you in a place of limitation.


"He's tried to keep you in a place of continual warfare and contending without seeing any fruit, but I am going to reconnect you again with the very manifestation of My Presence. My power is going to break through every obstacle like a hammer breaks rocks into pieces. I'm going to break through every single hindrance that has been at your feet", says the Lord.


CONFRONTING THE ENEMY IN YOUR LIFE


"And this is an hour," says the Lord, "that I'm going to confront the areas that the enemy has been trying to keep you tangled and imprisoned.


"This is an hour," says the Lord, "that I'm coming after the areas that have been trying to keep your heart encased in hard rock but right now I’m turning hearts of stone into hearts of flesh. Again, this is an hour that I'm removing the casings of disappointment and discouragement, and despondency.


"This is an hour that I'm coming against disbelief that has come and settled. This is an hour that I'm coming to break apathy and complacency, and I'm going to cause your heart to come alive again so that you would be in sync with My vision for your life.


"The very attack that has come against your soul is right now being judged, for I've seen the dark night that you've been in and now the court is in session.


"I've seen that the night has gone on for a very, very long time without any ability to see the new sunrise or the new day dawning. But this is an hour that I am coming to bring life to your soul again. And I'm breaking through the trauma of even many decades that you did not know that you were even living in.


"This is an hour I'm coming against the very things that have kept your feet concreted to disappointment and concreted to the old wineskin, the old mentalities, the old methods, and old ways."


THE NEW DAY IS DAWNING


"And I'm confronting those things for you, for you would say 'My best days were in that old season,' for you would say, 'my best days have already been passed.' But I would say to you, that right now, I'm setting you up for such a glorious chapter that you did not even see coming.


"Right now in the surrender to the new thing, in the discomfort and the pressing into the pain, I'm going to reveal My glory through your life in a way that you won’t be able to comprehend. I'm delivering you from so many areas of your own strength and the places where you've been running and hustling but it has not been producing the fruit that you've been wanting to see.


"It is time for My Spirit to come and to bring life to you. It's time for My Spirit to come and to lead you into your best days and break you out of those limitations and man-made methods."


WATCH AND SEE WHAT I WILL DO


"For the next two months watch and see, as I pour out revelation, as I open up the flood gates of Heaven over your life, and I show you the plans and the future that I have for you," says the Lord.


"Watch in the two next two months, as involuntarily, your life gets taken over by revelation. Where there has been such a drought of revelation, where there's been such a brass heaven, you are now going to feel such a constant rush and a constant flow of language and themes, and the things that I will show you for the future.


"For this is going to be a time where the tap of Heaven is going to be turned on over your life. And I want you to pick up a pen and I want you to write, and I want you to describe the things I give you, and I want you to let them take over your heart again.


"I want the revelation to hit against the areas of your heart that you've been shocked to realize that they have been shut off. And I want these words to come and I want them to embed deep into your soul, and I want you to run with them. And then I want you to build with them."


And then right after this part of the dream, I looked ahead and I could see the horizon was clear. And I looked out and my heart just gasped in absolute awe at what I could see before me—It was like I could see the horizon free and clear and I could feel a fresh joy coming out of my heart.


Then the Lord kept speaking;


NEW WINE REVELATION


"Can they see the new wine being poured out? Can they see that I am doing a new thing? Will they grab hold of it? Or will they stay in old mannah?


"For I long for My Church to lay down their systems and methods in this hour and receive what I am pouring out.


"I see the tiredness and the weariness trying to upkeep something that My Spirit has moved on from but how long will they keep trying?


"If they would only taste and see the new thing and choose to follow Me in this unknown season I would give them the ideas and new wine strategies that will bear fruit.


"But many have been more in love with their structures over My Spirit and they are missing out on what is right now gushing forth.


"I want to hand them a new manual—a new scroll—a new blueprint that will sustain them and lead them where I am going but oh, it will take much surrender and the burning of idols.


"I want to show them where I am heading—will they look to the horizon? Will they lock eyes with Me at all costs?"


THE HORNETS NEST OF DISTRACTION & SWARMING VOICES


But then over towards the east, i saw a swarm of hornet's filling the skies and with it came a suffocating hopelessness and heaviness that were trying to yet again clog up the horizon. 


And the Lord said, "This is what the attack of the enemy looks like in this hour. This is the assignment of the enemy in a time when I am pouring out fresh vision and fresh dreaming.


"This is the attack of the enemy to create a distraction. It’s the swarm of words and slander sent to get them looking at the enemy and his incessant noise instead of what I am doing. It’s sent to scatter and plant strife, slander, and restlessness in homes.


"It’s sent to bring confusion, doubt, and double-mindedness over the vision I am releasing.


"It’s sent to divide marriages, relationships, and people building together.


"It’s sent to brood the spirit of madness and forfeit, over the hearts of those finally getting free of the battle season."


This hornet's nest was an assignment of the enemy to try to sting the people of God, to try to sting the people of God through witchcraft and slander, and a shout out to discredit people that would just be getting back on their feet and stepping into a new day.


This assignment was to come into sting people, so it would shut them down. "But this is an hour," says the Lord, "where you must stand firm, you must stay undistracted from this assignment of the enemy."


And then the Lord said to me, "And this hornet's nest is an assignment of the enemy to get them caught up in all the things of the world, all the news reports and all the different fear and propaganda going on in the world.


"BUT I am countering this swarm with peace and clarity that they will only find by running into My Presence daily! I will protect their minds and keep them free of every entanglement. For right now, your eyes need to be marked—your eyes need to be clearly synced with My eyes.


"I'm giving you Eagle eyes. I'm giving you eyes to see beyond where you have been—you've been in the wilderness, you've been in a dark season of not being able to see but now you will see beyond circumstances and beyond even this season. You will see how I see.


"So do not fall for these Hornet's nests, do not fall for the sudden fires and sudden calamities that show up in the world around you that the enemy is trying to get you caught up in. Do not fall for the fear-mongering of the world, do not fall for those things, but hold the vision that I'm giving you and run with it, and make it plain."


AN HOUR OF DELIVERANCE


"For right now, I'm bringing deliverance to divided minds. I'm bringing deliverance to those who have been in two minds—for those who've been having one foot in the new door that I have for them and one foot in defeat and wanting to give up.


"Right now I'm bringing deliverance to those who have been living in trauma; those who have been living in a place of continual breakdown on the inside, but at the same time, grabbing hold of the new thing I'm doing.


"And I say to you today, grab hold of what I have given you. Grab hold of the rope, grab hold of the lifeline that I've thrown you and do not let go, let it pull you out of the trauma," says the Lord, "for the days coming are days of wholeness, the days coming are days of freedom" says the Lord.


"And right now I’m breaking every trigger and cycle in your life. I'm coming against every area that has been causing you to be pressed, causing you to be triggered and causing you to break down and be unable to run forward. Because the days are coming," says the Lord, "where you will build the very vision that I gave you long ago, you will build the vision—not the vision other people handed you but the vision I gave you—the vision I handed you, the blueprint I handed you.


"I'm right now, I am de-cluttering you from every single hindrance, every single association that would cause you to backpedal and cause you to water down the vision I gave you.


"You're stepping into a new wineskin blueprint for your life, and you will not compromise that vision anymore," says the Lord.


"You are stepping over into power. You're stepping over into Kingdom influence and you're stepping over into such fruit and fulfillment.


"Get ready to begin to sign contracts, get ready to begin to hold in your hands the very vision that you thought was passed over, the very prayers and the promises that you thought that I have forgotten about.


"The dreams that you thought you would never see again...


"Get ready to hold it in your hands for the time is coming," says the Lord, "that I will fulfill every promise that I gave you."

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.

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. 

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.
