2021 - THE RISE OF THE COUNTER-CULTURE ARMY, THE BARED-TEETH BRIDE, & THE FIERY HOT REMNANT

"The wicked flee though no one pursues, but the righteous are as bold as a lion" Proverbs 28:1

Where we are headed we need clear words. We need prophetic blueprints for the year that show us the path to stick to so that we aren’t robed, pillaged, and plundered, but walk safely and are effective. For that purpose, I want to deliver this word in a bullet-point format that you can constantly look back to in 2021. There are three themes in my spirit for 2021 and this is one of them. I pray it ignites you and stirs you and provokes you to live all in for Jesus this year.

  THE YEAR THAT THE ARMY OF DRY BONES BECOMES THE ARMY OF AWAKENED WARRIORS

  • I have been absolutely transfixed in the last month as I have been praying for this new year and I have only one thing in my sights - the ecclesia being raised up, roaring, bold, and shining bright in the earth.
  • An ecclesia that like yeast worked into dough will be worked into all areas of society.
  • This year will see the dry bones army - the sleeping church become some of the most radical warriors we have ever seen. The pandemic woke them up.
  • We will see the church throw out the pointless tools and weapons and messages and get back to the simple gospel again.
  • We will see those who were decommissioned get back their fire and those who were stuck in a rut and on the side-lines get back their passion and purpose.
  • We are going to see a soul-winning army arise. An army whose anointing is to go after souls and they will go hand in hand with revivalists who are called to uncap wells in the nations.
  • We are going to see the next level of awakening around the earth and it’s our job to prophesy them awake.

  “So I prophesied as he commanded me, and breath entered them; they came to life and stood up on their feet—a vast army” Ezekiel 37:10

  IN 2021 YOU WILL SEE WHAT GOD WAS FASHIONING THROUGH THE WARFARE YOU FACED IN 2020

  • I saw a vision of the Lord taking all of the conflict, chaos, warfare, accusation, slander, betrayal, pressure, crushing, and demonic assignments that had come against Gods people in 2020 and using it to forge weapons of warfare - mighty hammers that would be used in 2021 for the Kingdom.
  • You will see that every battle was not in vain or for nothing. You will see that the pain was worth it because you will now see the gain.
  • In 2020 you were opposed to the point of breaking point but now YOU are rising up as the breaker in both your personal circumstances and in the nations.
  • You will feel a strange and unusual instinct to oppose the things that have been robbing you, others, and robbing the church from its inheritance.
  • You will finally accept that you are not some weak and powerless Christian but a weapon of war that God is going to move through in the years to come.

“You are my hammer and weapon of war: with you, I break nations in pieces; with you, I destroy kingdoms” Jeremiah 51:20  

“Every warrior's boot used in battle and every garment rolled in blood will be destined for burning, will be fuel for the fire” Isaiah 9:5

THIS IS THE YEAR YOU LEAVE YOUR SICK-BED & FINALLY BEGIN YOUR LEGACY AS A GIANT KILLER

  • This is a year of great healing that always comes after or through seasons of great opposition.
  • 2020 was a year the enemy tried to keep you in your sickbed, in fact, he tried to tie you down to it, but it didn’t work.
  • This year you will experience breakthrough after all the breaking you have been through.
  • You will feel the yoke come off your shoulders and the concrete break off your feet.
  • You will feel like deliverance has come to your house where it used to feel like a place of madness and chaos as the enemy tried to break you down.
  • You will feel the Luke 4:14 moment of leaving your valley of testing empowered by the spirit and you will realize that the fight for your life was in fact the fight for your destiny and you overcame it.
  • This year you will see the anointing that increased upon you through your struggles and opposition.
  • You will easily slay the giants that used to take you out and you will aggressively shut the door on things that used to rob you and over and over.
  • This is the year you stop identifying as an outcast, a victim or rejected. There is an invitation at this moment to move past your long history and stop rehearsing it.
  • Your sickbed isn’t your story - you leaving it is.
  • This is where your legacy and odyssey begins.

“When they are sick, God will restore them, lying upon their bed of suffering. He will raise them up again and restore them back to health” Psalm 41:3

THE YEAR OF REFORMATIONAL POSITIONING, COUNTER- CULTURAL COMMISSIONING, & THE FILLING OF EMPTY VACANCIES    

  • In a vision, I saw a military strategy boardroom where there was a map and people were being moved into new positions and vacancies that were not currently filled. These were strategic counter-culture positions being filled so we would see the shifting of major strongholds in the nations and the takedown of giants that have been dominating and enforcing culture.
  • This year God is raising up a reformational army for both the church and an army sent into the heights of the secular. It already began in 2020 but we will start to see the rudder turning in specific areas in 2021.
  • God has Daniels, Joseph’s, and Esther’s already planted in influential roles with the kings of the earth but watch as this year God gives them a voice.
  • God is raising up a prophetic media army this year - a band of trusted voices that will raise the bar and restore validity to the prophetic and they will be the new sound where the prophets of Baal, worldly media and Ichabod prophets have been missing the mark.
  • This is a year of greater sending and releasing. A year of the greater apostolic building of new wineskin expressions and movements.
  • In October the Lord said to me to not start the year out too FULL because we would need some margin and CAPACITY for the unexpected assignments and blueprints He gives us.
  • God is moving some people geographically who have been feeling purposeless and without a tribe.
  • God is repositioning those who have picked up the new apostolic mantles and mandates for cities and regions.
  • I have been seeing new nameplates in offices and the changing of the guard has happened and many will be surprised at what God places in their laps this year.
  • So follow your peace, follow your favor, and use your mantle!

“Again Jesus said, “Peace be with you! As the Father has sent me, I am sending you.” John 20:21

THIS YEAR WE WILL SEE THE GREATER EXPOSURE OF LIES & HIDDEN AGENDAS, SEE VEILS REMOVED, & TRUTH BROADCASTED

“So the spies questioned him: "Teacher, we know that you speak and teach what is right and that you do not show partiality but teach the way of God in accordance with the truth” Luke 20:21

  • In 2020 we saw the spirit of confusion and chaos hit the church during the pandemic and reveal our need for revelation truth. Not just convenient truth or truth that is uplifting but also sobering truth that hits the places where lies and deceit have been festering like a wound.
  • I had a vision of a leprous man months ago that was trying to avoid looking in the mirror but as He looked at himself and realized how sick in areas he was, he was suddenly healed.
  • We are about to see a rising up of truth carriers who may look at first like they are arrogant or uncompassionate but they will be the healers of afflictions that lies and demonic deceit created.
  • This year we are going to see anointed truth, revelation truth broadcasted that removes veils of bondage cast over the nations and sets captives free.
  • There will be a media shift or a “slide” where there will be networks and stations that lose their ratings and position as truth carriers take back the airwaves.
  • “There’s a whole other layer” the lord keeps saying to me and in 2021 we are going to see the next layer of corruption uncovered around the earth and the unveiling of handshakes around the nations established for the purpose of multi-national control and power.

THE YEAR OF THE BARED TEETH BRIDE, THE HEAVYWEIGHT PROPHETS, & THE ESTABLISHING OF THE COMPANY OF THE TRUE

  • In September of last year, Rosh Hashanah, I had a vision of a Lion that was roaring, and then it opened its mouth even wider to reveal all its teeth. The Lord then spoke to me and said “This will be the year that the church goes from beginning to roar to BARING its teeth!”
  • The 21st letter of the Hebrew alphabet is “shin” which looks like a crown but stands for teeth representing both the church realizing royalty and also its ferocity.
  • This year we are going to see the church rise up as the bold bride she was always called to be not tolerating and passively allowing robbery and being bullied.
  • This year the prophetic movement is going to face a crossroads of either baring their teeth or being silent and inactive. The days of passive prophecy without power are over and God is refining the prophetic, pulling prophets up higher into their weightier calling and extending an invitation to step into the mantle of real prophecy.
  • Sugar-coated words are not going to take us anywhere in 2021, in fact, the conviction of the Holy Spirit is going to fall upon those using prophesy as a marketing ploy and they will either lose the show and shape up, or go back to prophet character school.
  • We are going to be so surprised who God raises up in 2021.. surprised at who God restores and brings back from the brink of hell and who God mantles with prophetic wisdom and insight for the hour.
  • The houses without real prophets are going to be stumbling in the dark constantly thrown back and forth in the dichotomy of culture while those who embrace the pure prophets will stand the tests that come, have deep roots, and be on the cutting edge of what God is doing.
  • God is raising up a prophetic company who will stand true to what He has said no matter what shakes and no matter what comes against the church. They are the ones that against all odds, opposition, and ridicule have not moved from their post and they will continue to point the church to true north in turbulent times. Interestingly the gematria of “shin” is 300, and like Gideon’s army God is raising up his remnant right now who will choose Him when others fall away.

THE YEAR OF NO MORE COMPROMISE, MIXTURE, OR BEING IN UNEQUALLY YOKED RELATIONSHIPS/ALIGNMENTS

  • Recently when praying for the new year I had a dream I was at a Christian carnival and was invited to be with the “in” crowd which included some A list Christian names but I felt strongly to not join them. I then saw a friend who also turned down this group and he said to me “Nate, where we are going we cannot compromise!”. I woke up shaking in the fear of the lord.
  • The word “compromise” means a stance in between two different things, to find or follow a way between extremes, or in other words to sit on the fence, take the easy path, the road of least resistance, and not having to make a stand in one place or conviction.
  • This year we can no longer be lukewarm, or call the middle ground the higher ground like it’s some kind of spiritually enlightened place. Let’s call that for what it is .. being neither hot nor cold, not standing for truth or for the lies, and avoiding confrontation so you are appeasing everyone around you. This doesn’t last long and eventually the sand beneath begins to shake and you have to somewhere.
  • This year we cannot be the kings of mixture holding both the ropes of culture and the ropes of the kingdom. It’s a tug of war we can’t win. We must take a stand for righteousness!
  • This year God is wanting us to be in fruitful relationships and alignments, not convenient ones for the sake of networking or being in the who's who.
  • God is right now jealously leading you out of unequally yoked relationships and connections that are not sustainable. He doesn’t want you opening yourself up to immature people who lack the character to go the distance or the desire to follow the Lord where you are.
  • But watch this year as God brings you people who are lovers of God and not lovers of themselves or some other temporary, fleeting, affection.
  • This year we need to be a people of no compromise.. knowing our convictions.
  • We need to learn to protect the anointing and not let flies in the ointment.
  • We need to learn how to DISCERN better, and not cast our pearls..
  • We need to learn how to establish better boundaries and expectations in relationships and learn how to honor better than we have.
  • This year it may feel like your inner circle gets smaller but your tribe will get bigger..

THE YEAR CHRISTIAN CELEBRITY CULTURE LOSES ITS INFLUENCE & WE BURN THE GOLDEN CALF

  • A standout point of my dream was the fact that many were following Christian Celebrity culture and in doing so had lost their discernment and way.
  • This year God is purging leadership, redefining motives, and removing worldly influence from the high places of the church. We can’t operate with high charisma and little character - the fruit is damage and pain and communities that never experience transformation.
  • I believe this year that celebrity culture in the church will begin to show its cracks and inability to hide its motives and salesmanship.
  • Those in prominent positions given by men who have no true desire to build the kingdom will be uprooted.
  • Celebrity culture doesn’t raise soldiers but cheerleaders who have no clue how to swing a sword and where we are going it will not be green rooms that will be the training ground for the best warriors but the hard knock seasons of wilderness.
  • There is a famous Australian military training camp called “puckapunyal” or “valley of winds” in the indigenous language, which has been known for raising the best soldiers. This year we need the wind of the Spirit upon us and through us, not the wind and hot air of ego and self-righteousness.
  • God is burning the golden calves that have been holding the church back from being effective. Where we have chosen to elevate and worship any else other than King Jesus.
  • Ministry and status have been an idol and it must be thrown in the fire.
  • This year we must have one affection and motivation - to know Jesus and to make Him known on the earth.

“Yet I hold this against you: You have forsaken the love you had at first” Revelation 2:4

THE YEAR OF THE FIRE UPON THE ALTAR, THE WILD PROPHETS, & THE SET APART ONES

“Elijah went before the people and said, “How long will you waver between two opinions? If the Lord is God, follow him; but if Baal is God, follow him.” 1 Kings 18:21

  • We are right now in a prophetic parallel to the story of Elijah and the prophets of baal from 1 Kings. There is a choice to be made but let me make it easy.. choose God or choose the world. People will call this polarising but it’s that simple.
  • In this story there was an altar that was on fire and another that wasn’t - that’s our invitation.
  • This year God is bringing together a prophetic remnant that lives as an altar, ON FIRE, and set apart to Him.
  • They will be in this world but not of it.
  • This year the purifying of the prophetic will only get hotter but it will draw the gold to the top. The radicals, wild ones, who have nothing to prove and no other lover than Jesus.
  • The refining has only begun but you are safe in the fire.

“But you are God’s chosen treasure priests who are kings, a spiritual “nation” set apart as God’s devoted ones. He called you out of darkness to experience his marvelous light, and now he claims you as his very own. He did this so that you would broadcast his glorious wonders throughout the world ” 1 Peter 2:9

THE YEAR OF REVELATION, FRESH PURSUIT, VISITATION, & UNEXPECTED HABITATION

  • Recently in a dream, I was sitting in what I knew to be the library of heaven and I marveled at all the books covering the walls of this huge room and felt like a kid in a candy store waiting to read them. These books were revelation knowledge, strategy, direction, a new language, and the mysteries on the Lord's heart that was crucial for the church in this hour.
  • This year we will have access to the new blueprints of heaven and new language and themes on His heart for this kairos time.
  • As I looked at the books and went to grab one I saw an open door to a corridor and I suddenly felt the overwhelming intoxication of the Lord's presence in there so I left the library and followed. I followed a winding staircase that seemed to go down and never seemed to end. Every step I took I was becoming more love-sick for Him and no longer cared for reading the books in the library. I was in pursuit of Jesus and nothing else.
  • This year the Lord is calling the church back to her first love. I hear Him saying “come with me. Will you leave everything behind for a moment with me?”
  • This year God us tugging on the hearts of those who have lost the encounter they began with and is wooing the church back to her knees, back to the carpet of intimacy again.
  • God wants to share the secrets of His Heart but will we pursue Him or just his revelation? If we pursue Him we will receive so much more than revelation.
  • This year God wants us to experience fresh visitation and be reminded that He is an intimate God and wants to be known and for us to be known.
  • He is going to break off the stale religiosity that has caused so many to be servants and not sons and daughters.
  • Get ready for a fresh wave of sonship and renewed identity come to the forefront.
  • I see meetings having unusual manifestations, healings, and remarkable transformations through the baptism of love where people walk away branded by the Holy Ghost and saying “The King of Glory kissed me!”
  • I feel so strongly that the Lord is wanting to not just visit but dwell.. We are going to see the habitation of heaven in different places and locations that simply give him room.

THE YEAR OF HOME-BIRTHS, RAW REVIVAL FIRES, & MOVEMENTS FOR SOULS & THE HARVEST

  • Jesus said in John 4:35” Don’t you have a saying, ‘It’s still four months until harvest’? I tell you, open your eyes and look at the fields! They are ripe for harvest” and if you are wanting to know what the army has been raised for - it is this. Harvest. The lost. It’s not so the church can look good or we can be on top. No, it’s so we can serve the world and love them and show them, Jesus. It’s so they can be whole and free.
  • Freely we receive and freely we give and this year we will. We will love better than we have and serve better than we have served.
  • We will move with love and compassion like Jesus and lay down our lives for others.
  • It’s speaking up for the unborn and the oppressed and seeing injustices overturned and our lands healed. This is what it is about. Revival..
  • This year we are going to see revival fires break out organically in so many places.
  • For months now I keep hearing “home-births” and I believe it’s the Lord revealing that He is going to pour out His Spirit upon home gatherings this year.
  • “Where two or more are gathered” get ready for His presence to fall powerfully.
  • Out of authentic prayer and worship will arise movements that will be at the forefront of this great harvest.

THIS IS THE YEAR THAT WE SEE THE BEGINNING OF AMERICAS REFORMATION & RETURNING

“I have declared to both Jews and Greeks that they must turn to God in repentance and have faith in our Lord Jesus” Acts 20:21

  • When we were in D.C in October I felt the Lord tell me to walk into an angry protesting crowd at the Supreme Court and to lay my hands on the ground and pray, and as I did I saw a key turning in a lock and the Lord said: “Now begins the TURNING of this great nation back to me as in the days of its youth!”
  • This year we will see the beginning of the return to Godly values. It will come with a fight but it will prevail.
  • Reformation means to restore to its original design and value and this is what God is doing in this nation right now in its greatest moment of conflict.
  • Regardless of what you hear and see, this nation is right now in a tug of war that the enemy cannot win.
  • A move of repentance and TURNING is about to hit this nation and once again we will see people come to the feet of Jesus..

THE TEST DAYS MAKE WAY FOR THE BEST DAYS - OUR GREATEST DAYS ARE UPON US

  • In October I had a vision of a reformer God had raised up in 2020 and I saw the spear of Saul being hurled at him, but as it came at him he grabbed it and held it in his hands in a stance for battle. I asked the Lord what I was seeing and He said that He was using the weapons of the enemy as weapons that will be catalysts for movements around the earth.
  • This year God is harnessing the hate and ridicule against the church and using it to increase the church.
  • The enemy wants the church to shut its voice but it’s only given the church a greater opportunity to be a voice.
  • We as the church are being positioned for the increase and for the harvest at hand and we are truly going from glory to glory.
  • This year we are going to see the church pivot even more, adjust even more, and be purged even more but it’s not just the Lord removing the stumbling blocks - it’s also a sign of growth!
  • We are growing and maturing, and we are going to see the church be the pure and spotless bride!
  • This is our Isaiah 60 season to arise and shine!
  • This year we will see greater shaking but also greater unity.
  • Streams will merge and walls will come down! 

I PROPHESY THAT THIS YEAR YOU WOULD BE BOLD, UNCOMPROMISED, UNDIGNIFIED, & UNAPOLOGETIC OF YOUR PURSUIT OF JESUS, HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS, HIS WILL, & HIS WAYS SO THAT THE LUKEWARM GET HOT, THE FIRELESS GET BACK THEIR FIRE, & THE NATIONS ENCOUNTER HIM!

RELATED prophetic WORDS:

FOR THOSE WHO HAVE BATTLED & SURVIVED JEZEBEL

By Nate Johnston • April 23, 2025
I have a prophetic word for those who have grown up under the demonic agenda of Jezebel, and for those raised in narcissistic environments and battled it their entire lives. Yes, the spirit of Jezebel has always had a target on your back because of who you are... Like Agent Smith from The Matrix, Jezebel keeps showing up, manifesting through different people, personalities, seasons, assignments, and alignments to take you out. It’s been the greatest battle of your life: figuring out how to steward your calling, how to be a voice in the midst of relentless attacks and constant attempts to cancel your calling. This spirit has tried to silence you, shut down your voice, reject you, belittle you, isolate you, and keep you in a cave. She’s tempted you to sugarcoat your words, dilute your message, and shrink your fire so you didn’t keep getting in her cross fire. I know the price many of you have paid for pioneering through this—for choosing health for your families, your marriages, and your future. I know the cost of refusing to tolerate her, season after season, and what you’ve walked through for the sake of not giving up on your calling. But in the hardest moments, you chose legacy again and again, yet it’s been costly. Recently, I was praying into this, especially in my own life, because I’ve battled this spirit for as long as I can remember, I asked the Lord, “Will it always be this way? Will I always have to fight Jezebel?” As I was reading through 1 Kings 19 - 2 Kings 10, the Lord highlighted the story of Jehu, the one who took out Jezebel (2 Kings 9:30–37). And the Lord said: “You are the Jehu. This generation is the Jehu generation, rising to confront and take out this spirit.” But here’s the thing: Jehu overthrew Jezebel, but he didn’t reform the land. “But Jehu was not careful to walk in the law of the Lord… he did not turn from the sins of Jeroboam…” 2 Kings 10:31 He overthrew the person, but not the pattern. He tore down the idol, but didn’t restore the altar. He left a void, and that void became an open door. Right now, the test of our generation isn’t just about calling out what’s wrong. It’s about restoring the priesthood, rebuilding the altar, and leading the Church back into true worship. Because without worship, Jezebel returns. I’ve seen it in dreams repeatedly, Jezebel overthrown, only to be welcomed back through broken, unhealed, and unprotected spaces. Because where there is no priesthood, no purity, and no presence, she comes back to rule. So I asked the Lord, “What is the key?” He said: “Joash.” The name Joash means “The Lord has given.” The Lord said: “The generation of Joash and Jehoiada is now upon you.” Here’s what that means: Jehu may have exposed Jezebel but it was Joash and Jehoiada who removed her legacy. Athaliah, Jezebel’s daughter, rose to power in Judah after Jezebel’s death (2 Kings 11:1–3) . She was a generational extension of her mother’s spirit. But Jehoiada the priest preserved Joash, hiding him in the temple for six years. When the time was right, they overthrew Athaliah in the temple (2 Kings 11:13–16). That was so prophetic because they didn’t just confront the fruit of Jezebel they killed it in the place of worship, as a declaration: “We are taking this place back for the Lord.” They then led a revival of covenant and worship in the land (2 Kings 11:17–18), restoring God’s people to their true identity. And this is the battle we have today. We are not just confronting Jezebel, we are confronting her legacy, her influence, her strongholds in families, marriages, churches, and systems. But we can’t stop at exposure. We must rebuild the altar, restore the presence, and model the priesthood again. But here’s the word for you overcomers - the pioneers, the forerunners, the ones who refused to bow: You are not doomed to fight Jezebel your whole life. God is raising up a Joash generation, sons and daughters the Lord has given who will see and walk in the fruit from your persistence in battle, because you refused to tolerate Jezebel and have prevailed! Now because of you the next generation won’t face what you faced, because you confronted it, took it down, and established healthy! But here’s the key: You must restore your home, your marriage, your inner world into a lifestyle of worship and the right affections. You must refill the void with presence and priesthood. When we do that, we not only evict Jezebel, we close the door for good. And that’s Joash - living in the fruit of victory with no landing pads for the enemy. No more idols. Compromise. Other lovers. Just Jesus again. So the promise over you is this: You’re stepping out of the weariness. You’re stepping out of the endless fight. You’re stepping out of the cave. And you’re stepping into the fruit of obedience. You’re about to see legacy break forth in your children and those around you. You’ve walked through rejection, isolation, intimidation, and endless assassination as this spirit that tried to shut you down at every turn. But you didn’t bow. You didn’t break. And you prevailed. And now the Lord says - You’re stepping out of the fight and into the fruit. Because you chose wholeness over generational dysfunction. Because you confronted what others tolerated. And because you refused to shut down and be walked over. Your children will know peace where you knew warfare. They’ll grow up in safety, freedom, and peace because you tore up the contract you were born into and started a new bloodline. You were the target, but now you have become the testimony.  You’re going to watch a generation walk in peace where you’ve known warfare. Because you chose to fight, they will be free. So in the days to come watch as you begin to see FRUIT where you only encountered the FIGHT because the tide is shifting mighty ones and you have overcome! “You, dear children, are from God and have overcome them, because the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world” —1 John 4:4

IT'S TURNING AROUND!

By Nate Johnston • April 22, 2025
I want to release a word of faith and authority over you as we begin this week. As I was praying over this week, I kept seeing this image in front of me of a person that was stuck in a corner with no way out, and arrows were flying at them from all sides. I instantly discerned that what I was seeing was someone who had been in a season where they felt very much like their calling had somehow made them feel like they’ve just been through constant assailing by the enemy, with constant arrows from all sides. Thats where you have felt exposed. That’s where you have felt bombarded. You felt like you’ve just been attacked from every single angle. Then I began to really feel like it was similar to the scripture that says: “But this is a people plundered and looted, all of them trapped in pits or hidden away in prisons. They have become plunder, with no one to rescue them; they have been made loot, with no one to say, ‘Restore!’” — (Isaiah 42:22, NIV) I began to feel authority rise up in my voice. I began to feel an authority saying, “No! This is injustice. This cannot happen. This must turn around now!” Then I began to prophesy: “Restore in the name of Jesus! Restore in the name of Jesus! Restore in the name of Jesus!” As soon as I said that, Deuteronomy 23:5 came to mind, where it says that every curse turns into a blessing. So I began to prophesy: “Lord, every curse will turn into a blessing. Every curse will turn into a blessing. Every single assignment of the enemy will turn into a blessing. Every area of robbery, every area of financial hardship, every area where the enemy has come after finances, after health - God is going to turn it all around.” And that’s when it hit me - THIS IS UNCTION OF A TURNAROUND! It’s the sensing that things had to shift! I began to prophesy: “Turnaround now in the name of Jesus! Turnaround now in the name of Jesus!” As I began to declare this, I began to see things beginning to shift in the atmosphere. Then suddenly I began to hear all this chatter in the spirit of people who had been worn down mentally to the point where they no longer believed that God could turn these situations around. And I suddenly realized the key: God is wanting to shift and turn around situations right now, but the enemy has worn down your authority and your faith to the point that you no longer believe He can do it. Hope deferred has crept in to such a degree that it’s made it feel impossible that God could move. And so I feel that even right now, God is coming against those mindsets. He’s coming against the fear. He’s coming against the intimidation of the army. He’s coming against the hope deferred that constantly makes you feel like nothing will be able to shift or turn around. He is restoring in you a boldness and authority to begin to speak to the things around you and cause them to be removed and those mountains around you to be cast into the sea. And that’s what God is doing this week. He is hitting up against your mind and the foreboding keeping you captive. You’ve been looking at the obstacles you’re facing right now in your finances, health, marriage, and everything else, and they look like mountains. The Lord says, “Where has your faith gone? Where has your authority gone? Where has your boldness gone? I am your protector. I am your provider. I am looking after you and watching over you. Yes, the war has been constant against you. Yes, the enemy has been trying to wear you down. But He says to you “this week, I want you to do what David did - and strengthen yourself in me!” “I want you to step out of the place of faithlessness and cowering, out of begging for the crumbs under the table” “I want you to shift your mindset, and as you shift your mindset, I’ll shift your circumstances!” “Even right now, begin to break every agreement with fear” “Break every agreement with hopelessness and despair that’s caused you to stop dreaming” “It’s caused you to drop your vision in the dust” “It’s caused you to stop wearing your mantle and slip back into survival mode in a time where I want you to thrive and dream with Me” Then I was reminded of something so special to us. Over the years we’ve experienced this strange but beautiful phenomenon in our lives. Whenever we’re in the thick of spiritual warfare, when we feel like we’re being preached at by our circumstances - that’s when God brings us a sign of His nearness. It happens like clockwork. But it’s so simple that you could miss it if you aren’t childlike. We see ducks in twos and they show up in odd places, at odd times. It’s always just when we’re beginning to feel overwhelmed or discouraged. It’s God’s subtle reminder: “I see you. I’m with you. It’s not over.” But this year, on our anniversary, it was different. Two doves appeared on our back fence and they stayed for a full week. It was as if God was saying: “Watch ME turn this around! Not by night nor by power!” And even though we were still in the middle of the storm the breakthrough hadn’t come yet His goodness showed up as a downpayment. Sometimes, the sign isn’t the full breakthrough, but it’s the reminder that He hasn’t forgotten you, and that the turnaround is closer than you think. There are many right now trying to ask God, “Where are my next steps?” but you’re not thinking with faith, you’re thinking with fear. And the Lord says: “It’s time to break that off. I’m reversing everything that’s come against you, and I’m turning it. And some would say, ‘Could this turn in a day?’ Yes, it can turn in a day. And the Lord says “you will watch in this season, as you partner with Me again not with the accuser, not with fear, not with lack but as you choose to partner again with Me, “You will see every single obstacle and every mountain around you crumble into the sea” But you need to partner with Me again. Will you partner again with My Spirit and reject the patterns and mindsets of this world? It is time to step back into a mind-renewal season that actually brings about the shifting of circumstances. Because the fruit of worry is actually causing that which you fear to come to you. But as you shift out of that, It will cause the fruit of your renewed mind to be that you see the kingdom of heaven invade your world, your lifestyle and you’ll see things shift around in a short period of time.” So give me your heart and mind and I’ll turn around the things around you that have tried to do in your strength and failed, and silence the storm” 

FOR THOSE WHO HAVE BATTLED & SURVIVED JEZEBEL

By Nate Johnston • April 23, 2025
I have a prophetic word for those who have grown up under the demonic agenda of Jezebel, and for those raised in narcissistic environments and battled it their entire lives. Yes, the spirit of Jezebel has always had a target on your back because of who you are... Like Agent Smith from The Matrix, Jezebel keeps showing up, manifesting through different people, personalities, seasons, assignments, and alignments to take you out. It’s been the greatest battle of your life: figuring out how to steward your calling, how to be a voice in the midst of relentless attacks and constant attempts to cancel your calling. This spirit has tried to silence you, shut down your voice, reject you, belittle you, isolate you, and keep you in a cave. She’s tempted you to sugarcoat your words, dilute your message, and shrink your fire so you didn’t keep getting in her cross fire. I know the price many of you have paid for pioneering through this—for choosing health for your families, your marriages, and your future. I know the cost of refusing to tolerate her, season after season, and what you’ve walked through for the sake of not giving up on your calling. But in the hardest moments, you chose legacy again and again, yet it’s been costly. Recently, I was praying into this, especially in my own life, because I’ve battled this spirit for as long as I can remember, I asked the Lord, “Will it always be this way? Will I always have to fight Jezebel?” As I was reading through 1 Kings 19 - 2 Kings 10, the Lord highlighted the story of Jehu, the one who took out Jezebel (2 Kings 9:30–37). And the Lord said: “You are the Jehu. This generation is the Jehu generation, rising to confront and take out this spirit.” But here’s the thing: Jehu overthrew Jezebel, but he didn’t reform the land. “But Jehu was not careful to walk in the law of the Lord… he did not turn from the sins of Jeroboam…” 2 Kings 10:31 He overthrew the person, but not the pattern. He tore down the idol, but didn’t restore the altar. He left a void, and that void became an open door. Right now, the test of our generation isn’t just about calling out what’s wrong. It’s about restoring the priesthood, rebuilding the altar, and leading the Church back into true worship. Because without worship, Jezebel returns. I’ve seen it in dreams repeatedly, Jezebel overthrown, only to be welcomed back through broken, unhealed, and unprotected spaces. Because where there is no priesthood, no purity, and no presence, she comes back to rule. So I asked the Lord, “What is the key?” He said: “Joash.” The name Joash means “The Lord has given.” The Lord said: “The generation of Joash and Jehoiada is now upon you.” Here’s what that means: Jehu may have exposed Jezebel but it was Joash and Jehoiada who removed her legacy. Athaliah, Jezebel’s daughter, rose to power in Judah after Jezebel’s death (2 Kings 11:1–3) . She was a generational extension of her mother’s spirit. But Jehoiada the priest preserved Joash, hiding him in the temple for six years. When the time was right, they overthrew Athaliah in the temple (2 Kings 11:13–16). That was so prophetic because they didn’t just confront the fruit of Jezebel they killed it in the place of worship, as a declaration: “We are taking this place back for the Lord.” They then led a revival of covenant and worship in the land (2 Kings 11:17–18), restoring God’s people to their true identity. And this is the battle we have today. We are not just confronting Jezebel, we are confronting her legacy, her influence, her strongholds in families, marriages, churches, and systems. But we can’t stop at exposure. We must rebuild the altar, restore the presence, and model the priesthood again. But here’s the word for you overcomers - the pioneers, the forerunners, the ones who refused to bow: You are not doomed to fight Jezebel your whole life. God is raising up a Joash generation, sons and daughters the Lord has given who will see and walk in the fruit from your persistence in battle, because you refused to tolerate Jezebel and have prevailed! Now because of you the next generation won’t face what you faced, because you confronted it, took it down, and established healthy! But here’s the key: You must restore your home, your marriage, your inner world into a lifestyle of worship and the right affections. You must refill the void with presence and priesthood. When we do that, we not only evict Jezebel, we close the door for good. And that’s Joash - living in the fruit of victory with no landing pads for the enemy. No more idols. Compromise. Other lovers. Just Jesus again. So the promise over you is this: You’re stepping out of the weariness. You’re stepping out of the endless fight. You’re stepping out of the cave. And you’re stepping into the fruit of obedience. You’re about to see legacy break forth in your children and those around you. You’ve walked through rejection, isolation, intimidation, and endless assassination as this spirit that tried to shut you down at every turn. But you didn’t bow. You didn’t break. And you prevailed. And now the Lord says - You’re stepping out of the fight and into the fruit. Because you chose wholeness over generational dysfunction. Because you confronted what others tolerated. And because you refused to shut down and be walked over. Your children will know peace where you knew warfare. They’ll grow up in safety, freedom, and peace because you tore up the contract you were born into and started a new bloodline. You were the target, but now you have become the testimony.  You’re going to watch a generation walk in peace where you’ve known warfare. Because you chose to fight, they will be free. So in the days to come watch as you begin to see FRUIT where you only encountered the FIGHT because the tide is shifting mighty ones and you have overcome! “You, dear children, are from God and have overcome them, because the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world” —1 John 4:4

IT'S TURNING AROUND!

By Nate Johnston • April 22, 2025
I want to release a word of faith and authority over you as we begin this week. As I was praying over this week, I kept seeing this image in front of me of a person that was stuck in a corner with no way out, and arrows were flying at them from all sides. I instantly discerned that what I was seeing was someone who had been in a season where they felt very much like their calling had somehow made them feel like they’ve just been through constant assailing by the enemy, with constant arrows from all sides. Thats where you have felt exposed. That’s where you have felt bombarded. You felt like you’ve just been attacked from every single angle. Then I began to really feel like it was similar to the scripture that says: “But this is a people plundered and looted, all of them trapped in pits or hidden away in prisons. They have become plunder, with no one to rescue them; they have been made loot, with no one to say, ‘Restore!’” — (Isaiah 42:22, NIV) I began to feel authority rise up in my voice. I began to feel an authority saying, “No! This is injustice. This cannot happen. This must turn around now!” Then I began to prophesy: “Restore in the name of Jesus! Restore in the name of Jesus! Restore in the name of Jesus!” As soon as I said that, Deuteronomy 23:5 came to mind, where it says that every curse turns into a blessing. So I began to prophesy: “Lord, every curse will turn into a blessing. Every curse will turn into a blessing. Every single assignment of the enemy will turn into a blessing. Every area of robbery, every area of financial hardship, every area where the enemy has come after finances, after health - God is going to turn it all around.” And that’s when it hit me - THIS IS UNCTION OF A TURNAROUND! It’s the sensing that things had to shift! I began to prophesy: “Turnaround now in the name of Jesus! Turnaround now in the name of Jesus!” As I began to declare this, I began to see things beginning to shift in the atmosphere. Then suddenly I began to hear all this chatter in the spirit of people who had been worn down mentally to the point where they no longer believed that God could turn these situations around. And I suddenly realized the key: God is wanting to shift and turn around situations right now, but the enemy has worn down your authority and your faith to the point that you no longer believe He can do it. Hope deferred has crept in to such a degree that it’s made it feel impossible that God could move. And so I feel that even right now, God is coming against those mindsets. He’s coming against the fear. He’s coming against the intimidation of the army. He’s coming against the hope deferred that constantly makes you feel like nothing will be able to shift or turn around. He is restoring in you a boldness and authority to begin to speak to the things around you and cause them to be removed and those mountains around you to be cast into the sea. And that’s what God is doing this week. He is hitting up against your mind and the foreboding keeping you captive. You’ve been looking at the obstacles you’re facing right now in your finances, health, marriage, and everything else, and they look like mountains. The Lord says, “Where has your faith gone? Where has your authority gone? Where has your boldness gone? I am your protector. I am your provider. I am looking after you and watching over you. Yes, the war has been constant against you. Yes, the enemy has been trying to wear you down. But He says to you “this week, I want you to do what David did - and strengthen yourself in me!” “I want you to step out of the place of faithlessness and cowering, out of begging for the crumbs under the table” “I want you to shift your mindset, and as you shift your mindset, I’ll shift your circumstances!” “Even right now, begin to break every agreement with fear” “Break every agreement with hopelessness and despair that’s caused you to stop dreaming” “It’s caused you to drop your vision in the dust” “It’s caused you to stop wearing your mantle and slip back into survival mode in a time where I want you to thrive and dream with Me” Then I was reminded of something so special to us. Over the years we’ve experienced this strange but beautiful phenomenon in our lives. Whenever we’re in the thick of spiritual warfare, when we feel like we’re being preached at by our circumstances - that’s when God brings us a sign of His nearness. It happens like clockwork. But it’s so simple that you could miss it if you aren’t childlike. We see ducks in twos and they show up in odd places, at odd times. It’s always just when we’re beginning to feel overwhelmed or discouraged. It’s God’s subtle reminder: “I see you. I’m with you. It’s not over.” But this year, on our anniversary, it was different. Two doves appeared on our back fence and they stayed for a full week. It was as if God was saying: “Watch ME turn this around! Not by night nor by power!” And even though we were still in the middle of the storm the breakthrough hadn’t come yet His goodness showed up as a downpayment. Sometimes, the sign isn’t the full breakthrough, but it’s the reminder that He hasn’t forgotten you, and that the turnaround is closer than you think. There are many right now trying to ask God, “Where are my next steps?” but you’re not thinking with faith, you’re thinking with fear. And the Lord says: “It’s time to break that off. I’m reversing everything that’s come against you, and I’m turning it. And some would say, ‘Could this turn in a day?’ Yes, it can turn in a day. And the Lord says “you will watch in this season, as you partner with Me again not with the accuser, not with fear, not with lack but as you choose to partner again with Me, “You will see every single obstacle and every mountain around you crumble into the sea” But you need to partner with Me again. Will you partner again with My Spirit and reject the patterns and mindsets of this world? It is time to step back into a mind-renewal season that actually brings about the shifting of circumstances. Because the fruit of worry is actually causing that which you fear to come to you. But as you shift out of that, It will cause the fruit of your renewed mind to be that you see the kingdom of heaven invade your world, your lifestyle and you’ll see things shift around in a short period of time.” So give me your heart and mind and I’ll turn around the things around you that have tried to do in your strength and failed, and silence the storm” 

WHEN THE OLD WINE RUNS OUT..

By Nate Johnston • April 19, 2025
I have a word for those who feel like they have come to the end of themselves. The end of direction. The end of their past blueprints and vision. The end of revelation and insight. The end of an old assignment. Maybe even community.. It’s like the wedding at Cana when the wine ran out. The barrels are empty. You feel empty. “God where from here?” “Jesus bring new wine out of me!” But there’s a silence. Almost a sense of being completely alone and even abandoned. It’s the scary place of being in between what was and what is to come. You know the new wine is coming. You know it because you know that’s what God does. But right now, it doesn’t feel like anything is on the horizon and it feels like everything is falling apart. Warfare has increased. Robbery has increased. And with a lack of vision and clarity and direction you feel like you are just “existing” or floating. WAITING for the next step or instruction. Yes, the old wine has ran out. You can’t drive that car anymore. You can’t wear those shoes anymore. You can’t hold onto that tattered jacket anymore. The old won’t sustain you for another day and you can’t bring it with you into tomorrow. Then comes the discontent. “Is this bitterness? “Lord is my heart sick? Am I in rebellion?” “Or is this you leading me somewhere new?” You are looking at the empty wine pots of your life and just feel strangely “used” Burned out. Flat. Exhausted. Old manna rotting on the ground. Trying to reconcile what you gave your life for that has seemingly only led you to this “nothingness” Yes, you ran out with the wine. You died with the last drops. You had to, so He could now do what you couldn’t do. And so he could lead you into a new chapter you would never step into still carrying the old. It’s Jesus in gethsemane crying tears of blood, like they were the last drops of the old way of life. Old mindsets. Old covenants. Dysfunctions. Pain. Trauma. Addictions. Lack. Rejection. Fear. Torment. Knowing He was going to the cross so that the real new wine could be poured out upon the generations to come and break the bondage of the past. Knowing you right now would need a promise and a signpost of Gods goodness when you were experiencing your own “lost” and unknown season. And this resurrection weekend, I know this is a prophetic reminder for those still in a “death” to the old season. SUNDAY IS COMING! I know the second day is painful and confusing. But resurrection is coming. But not the old you. The weighed down you. The new you. The new wine. The new manna. I know you feel like everything has died but on the third day the tomb was found empty! Yes empty is not the sign of death, but of new life coming!!! So today can I invite you with me to give Jesus our last drops of the old? Let’s give him this moment of “in between” Let’s give him our fears, expectations, worries, and mindsets from our last chapter and ask Him for the new wine to start flowing in our lives. The new wine - the blood of Jesus that SPEAKS a better word. That breaks and annuls bad contracts and soul ties and shuts demonic doors. Yes the blood that overrides all! And I prophesy that you will shift from trying to figure this out in your own strength to seeing the new wine break through for you in Jesus name! This weekend Christy and I are taking communion over every one of you and praying for the blood of Jesus over you and your families! Join us! "and to Jesus the Mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaketh better things than that of Abel" Hebrews 12:24
