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:

By Nate Johnston April 1, 2025
We need the wild voices to rise up right now because we need to see a new covenant paradigm of the prophetic unleashed on the earth. We need voices that don’t just tear down strongholds and overturn tables, but know how to build what is pure and true. We need those with no selfish motives, voices that step onto the scene not to draw people to themselves but to lead them to Jesus. We need the wild voices because they are a reflection of the Father’s heart and release His intentions into the earth. Just as David, the OG wild voice left the wilderness, and his first call was to take down a giant. Wild voices decimate principalities as a byproduct of their obedience. That moment set off a domino effect that led the kingdom back into alignment with God’s purposes. -The wild voices restore worship. -They restore the priesthood. -They restore the knowledge of God’s voice. THE WILD VOICES DESTROY CELEBRITY CULTURE We are seeing a culture where the messenger has become the focus instead of the King of Kings. 1 Corinthians 14 clearly calls the church to prophesy and hear God’s voice. But instead, there has been an overemphasis on hearing from others while many believers have lost confidence in hearing God for themselves. The wild voices break that cycle. They lead people back into relationship with God. They tear down thrones, altars, and idols built to other things. They call the church back to the fiery altar of consecration and sacrifice. WILD VOICES ARE DELIVERERS As wild voices speak, everything impure begins to run. Nothing can hide as the anointing of the wild voice is released. All counterfeits are exposed. All false gospels and false versions of Jesus are revealed for what they truly are. WILD VOICES BUILD, REDEEM & SEE THROUGH DARKNESS Wild voices don’t just tear down, they build. They redeem. They see God’s handiwork, even in the midst of chaos. They don’t just point out what’s crumbling, they announce what God is establishing. They are constant broadcasters of God’s goodness and His hand upon us, even through trials. Wild voices speak with authority and truth. They don’t tickle ears. They say exactly what needs to be said while also releasing the love and affection of God. IT’S TIME TO BREAK THE STATUS QUO We have disempowered ourselves by believing that only a select few are called to be wild voices. But that’s a lie. We are ALL called to be the wild, undignified voices of God. Like wild stallions and brumbies, we don’t bow to the spirit of religion or the Jezebel spirit that loves to create a façade of spiritual authority. We don’t exist to broadcast what’s falling down. Even in the kingdom, there’s been a massive overemphasis on what is crumbling. While there is truth in that, the wild ones are rising to speak the new narrative and write the next chapter. The wild ones will prophesy what God is doing. They will announce what He is building. They will carry the blueprints for the new era. And they will hand the baton to those ready to run with it. ARE YOU READY TO BE A WILD VOICE? Have you been disempowered by the status quo in the church? Have you been afraid to step into your voice because you don’t want to fall into the same errors you’ve seen in the past? Are you still healing from past rejection and doubt, unsure if your voice even matters anymore? If this word convicted you, then you are called to be a wild voice. -Find your wild pack. -Begin your destiny again. -Pick up the keys and RUN. It’s time.

The reason why the attacks against your family, your livelihood, your marriage, your health, and your children have reached an all-time high in this season is because you are at a threshold. In late 2022 , I suddenly developed back pain that I couldn’t understand. I went to a chiropractor, who looked at me puzzled and said, “Your hip is out.” Confused, I asked, “How?” and he responded, “I have no idea, but your hip is out.” I went home, and instantly, the story of Jacob wrestling with the angel of the Lord (Genesis 32:22-32) leaped in my spirit because it was in that battle that his hip was dislocated. Jacob was at a threshold, not just for himself but for his family. He was crossing the brook Jabbok into his promised land. But more than that, he was standing at a threshold of legacy, his very name would be changed from Jacob (supplanter, deceiver) to Israel (one who wrestles with God and prevails). This was not just about his personal transformation; it was a shift for the generations that would come after him. Jacob’s struggle in the night was a defining moment, a battle that left him wounded but also marked for destiny. This is where many have found themselves in this season wrestling, battling, and fighting for something bigger than just personal breakthrough. THE FINAL STRETCH OF THE WAR I believe we’ve been in many decades of a shift, but we’ve now reached a crescendo moment, a threshold where the battle has intensified like never before. The last few years have been especially heavy, and many are at the point of saying: “God, I don’t know how much more I can handle. I don’t know how much more warfare I can endure. I don’t know how many more unexpected attacks I can face.” You need to know this is a threshold battle. This is the final stretch before crossing over. Many have been: ⁃Fighting and pioneering for legacy. ⁃Warring for the promise over their family, ministry, and destiny. ⁃Contending for the shifting out of an old wineskin and stepping into something new. But because it has gone on for so long, many are growing weary. Some feel stuck, tired of fighting, yet unable to see the breakthrough they have been pressing toward. This season is about moving from breaking ground to being established. It’s for those called to lead their families and the Body of Christ into a place of true health, true wholeness, and true transformation, a place we have longed for but not yet fully seen. THE CROSSING OVER IS HERE I feel strongly that this threshold is about to be crossed. I believe we are stepping out of constant contention, constant warfare, and constant survival mode into a place where: ⁃Freedom will be the norm. ⁃Health will be the norm. ⁃Peace in marriages and families will be the norm. ⁃Being above constant warfare will be the norm. ⁃Thriving financially will be the norm. ⁃Living free from jezebel and narcissism will be the norm. I know this battle has been intense. I know it has been draining, financially, emotionally, spiritually. I know many feel depleted in their strength, joy, and hope. But hear the Lord today: “Tell them: Don’t give up!” Some of you have been battling intensely in your marriage. Others have been warring for your children, your household, and your future. It has reached a breaking point where you feel like your strength is gone, and hope is slipping away. But today, the Lord is saying: “By faith, step over that brook!” Just as Jacob stepped over the Jabbok and left his old identity behind, you are stepping over the place of separation between the old and the new. “You are about to see My power! You are about to see My ability! You are about to see Me shift you out of the dysfunctions of generations past and lead you into health and wholeness!” The Lord says today: I will bring your prodigals home. I will awaken the sleeping. I will restore your everything that the locusts have devoured in these past years. I will renew your strength and joy. And I will FINISH WHAT I PROMISED YOU YEARS AGO! As I’m writing this I feel like the Lord is saying that it’s time for those issues and battles against family to be finalised. -Family court issues. -Prodigal issues -Drug addiction -Marriage and infidelity issues -Financial issues -Lost or red taped inheritances -Generational health issues -Generational mental health issues. TO THE PIONEERS OF FAMILY And lastly, It’s been on my heart today to simply say Thankyou for your yes in the last 1-15 years. In a world chasing success and notoriety, money, and things. You chose to pursue health. To pursue Jesus. Even in the Christian world often deeply influenced by culture and tainted by those same vain and worthless ventures, you chose a different road. Again, you chose the less popular thing, you chose health. You chose Jesus. You chose legacy over appearance and reputation, because let’s be honest, it’s been costly to go this way. It’s been a road of unravelling and pulling back the layers of dysfunctions of many generations. It’s been a road of living on the altar and constant refinery and heart pruning to come out the orphan spirit and starting your sonship story. It’s been a road of warfare and battling to leave the pit of trauma, triggers, and narcissistic norms for the sake of your family and your children. It’s been a road of choosing the long game over bandaiding pain and putting a Christian sticker on it. You chose legacy. You chose to stand up and give your life for what God had in mind for your own family even though you knew it would be a minefield and difficult threshold to cross. Yet you said yes. And while maybe you are still mid way and yet to see the fruit of this calling. You are further than you realise. And the Father is so proud of you. And I feel like today the Lord wants to say over you; “In the next few years you will shift from battle focus to REAPING what you have sown!” “You will shift from warfare and drama to being the Joshua’s and way-makers of this new era!” The blueprints are in your hands. Blood stained. Crumpled. They may not feel valuable but it’s a roadmap out of the wilderness for so many. So on behalf of who is yet to leave, I say Thankyou.. The threshold is here and you are stepping over it in Jesus name!

They see God’s handiwork, even in the midst of chaos. They don’t just point out what’s crumbling, they announce what God is establishing. They are constant broadcasters of God’s goodness and His hand upon us, even through trials. Wild voices speak with authority and truth. They don’t tickle ears. They say exactly what needs to be said while also releasing the love and affection of God. IT’S TIME TO BREAK THE STATUS QUO We have disempowered ourselves by believing that only a select few are called to be wild voices. But that’s a lie. We are ALL called to be the wild, undignified voices of God. Like wild stallions and brumbies, we don’t bow to the spirit of religion or the Jezebel spirit that loves to create a façade of spiritual authority. We don’t exist to broadcast what’s falling down. Even in the kingdom, there’s been a massive overemphasis on what is crumbling. While there is truth in that, the wild ones are rising to speak the new narrative and write the next chapter. The wild ones will prophesy what God is doing. They will announce what He is building. They will carry the blueprints for the new era. And they will hand the baton to those ready to run with it. ARE YOU READY TO BE A WILD VOICE? Have you been disempowered by the status quo in the church? Have you been afraid to step into your voice because you don’t want to fall into the same errors you’ve seen in the past? Are you still healing from past rejection and doubt, unsure if your voice even matters anymore? If this word convicted you, then you are called to be a wild voice. -Find your wild pack. -Begin your destiny again. -Pick up the keys and RUN. It’s time.

The reason why the attacks against your family, your livelihood, your marriage, your health, and your children have reached an all-time high in this season is because you are at a threshold. In late 2022 , I suddenly developed back pain that I couldn’t understand. I went to a chiropractor, who looked at me puzzled and said, “Your hip is out.” Confused, I asked, “How?” and he responded, “I have no idea, but your hip is out.” I went home, and instantly, the story of Jacob wrestling with the angel of the Lord (Genesis 32:22-32) leaped in my spirit because it was in that battle that his hip was dislocated. Jacob was at a threshold, not just for himself but for his family. He was crossing the brook Jabbok into his promised land. But more than that, he was standing at a threshold of legacy, his very name would be changed from Jacob (supplanter, deceiver) to Israel (one who wrestles with God and prevails). This was not just about his personal transformation; it was a shift for the generations that would come after him. Jacob’s struggle in the night was a defining moment, a battle that left him wounded but also marked for destiny. This is where many have found themselves in this season wrestling, battling, and fighting for something bigger than just personal breakthrough. THE FINAL STRETCH OF THE WAR I believe we’ve been in many decades of a shift, but we’ve now reached a crescendo moment, a threshold where the battle has intensified like never before. The last few years have been especially heavy, and many are at the point of saying: “God, I don’t know how much more I can handle. I don’t know how much more warfare I can endure. I don’t know how many more unexpected attacks I can face.” You need to know this is a threshold battle. This is the final stretch before crossing over. Many have been: ⁃Fighting and pioneering for legacy. ⁃Warring for the promise over their family, ministry, and destiny. ⁃Contending for the shifting out of an old wineskin and stepping into something new. But because it has gone on for so long, many are growing weary. Some feel stuck, tired of fighting, yet unable to see the breakthrough they have been pressing toward. This season is about moving from breaking ground to being established. It’s for those called to lead their families and the Body of Christ into a place of true health, true wholeness, and true transformation, a place we have longed for but not yet fully seen. THE CROSSING OVER IS HERE I feel strongly that this threshold is about to be crossed. I believe we are stepping out of constant contention, constant warfare, and constant survival mode into a place where: ⁃Freedom will be the norm. ⁃Health will be the norm. ⁃Peace in marriages and families will be the norm. ⁃Being above constant warfare will be the norm. ⁃Thriving financially will be the norm. ⁃Living free from jezebel and narcissism will be the norm. I know this battle has been intense. I know it has been draining, financially, emotionally, spiritually. I know many feel depleted in their strength, joy, and hope. But hear the Lord today: “Tell them: Don’t give up!” Some of you have been battling intensely in your marriage. Others have been warring for your children, your household, and your future. It has reached a breaking point where you feel like your strength is gone, and hope is slipping away. But today, the Lord is saying: “By faith, step over that brook!” Just as Jacob stepped over the Jabbok and left his old identity behind, you are stepping over the place of separation between the old and the new. “You are about to see My power! You are about to see My ability! You are about to see Me shift you out of the dysfunctions of generations past and lead you into health and wholeness!” The Lord says today: I will bring your prodigals home. I will awaken the sleeping. I will restore your everything that the locusts have devoured in these past years. I will renew your strength and joy. And I will FINISH WHAT I PROMISED YOU YEARS AGO! As I’m writing this I feel like the Lord is saying that it’s time for those issues and battles against family to be finalised. -Family court issues. -Prodigal issues -Drug addiction -Marriage and infidelity issues -Financial issues -Lost or red taped inheritances -Generational health issues -Generational mental health issues. TO THE PIONEERS OF FAMILY And lastly, It’s been on my heart today to simply say Thankyou for your yes in the last 1-15 years. In a world chasing success and notoriety, money, and things. You chose to pursue health. To pursue Jesus. Even in the Christian world often deeply influenced by culture and tainted by those same vain and worthless ventures, you chose a different road. Again, you chose the less popular thing, you chose health. You chose Jesus. You chose legacy over appearance and reputation, because let’s be honest, it’s been costly to go this way. It’s been a road of unravelling and pulling back the layers of dysfunctions of many generations. It’s been a road of living on the altar and constant refinery and heart pruning to come out the orphan spirit and starting your sonship story. It’s been a road of warfare and battling to leave the pit of trauma, triggers, and narcissistic norms for the sake of your family and your children. It’s been a road of choosing the long game over bandaiding pain and putting a Christian sticker on it. You chose legacy. You chose to stand up and give your life for what God had in mind for your own family even though you knew it would be a minefield and difficult threshold to cross. Yet you said yes. And while maybe you are still mid way and yet to see the fruit of this calling. You are further than you realise. And the Father is so proud of you. And I feel like today the Lord wants to say over you; “In the next few years you will shift from battle focus to REAPING what you have sown!” “You will shift from warfare and drama to being the Joshua’s and way-makers of this new era!” The blueprints are in your hands. Blood stained. Crumpled. They may not feel valuable but it’s a roadmap out of the wilderness for so many. So on behalf of who is yet to leave, I say Thankyou.. The threshold is here and you are stepping over it in Jesus name!

Right now, many are going through what I call transition opposition, when God transitions you into a new assignment, a new role, or moves you to a new location, and suddenly, warfare, attacks, and opposition arise. It’s the constant barrage of nonstop drama, issues, and distractions, simply because the enemy is trying to discourage you, make you second-guess, and even regret following the call of God to transition where He was leading you. It’s the same playbook every time. As a family that God has led and moved around the United States and Australia many, many times, having now done two international moves, navigated visas, and all the complexities of moving with kids to follow the call of God, I can tell you: transition opposition is real, and the enemy’s tactics do not change. It happens before the move, during the move, and after the transition. The pre-transition phase is when the enemy sends discouragers from all angles, even speaking “thus saith the Lord” to try to convince you that what you’re doing is either an Ishmael, out of step, out of timing, or to make you feel like you missed God entirely. In pre-transition it can also come with confusing situations and mixed insight and revelation, or drama to take your eyes off the course before you. But the greatest opposition often comes when you actually step into that new place, role, or location. Suddenly, you’re not only dealing with the principality of the region you’ve entered, facing new giants in the land, just like Joshua and the Israelites, but you are dealing with constant and subtle attacks. It’s when you’re hit with incessant little irritations from all sides, all designed to make you question: Did I miss it? Am I speaking to you right now? I know many of you reading this have recently taken steps of faith. You’re doing your best to hear the voice of the Lord, but when issues arise, when your finances are drained, when sickness hits your household, when strife enters your family or marriage, it’s easy to wonder: God, are we alone in this? There are so many elements to beginning again, and the heart process of transition can be overwhelming. It’s easy to feel like you made the wrong decision. And let’s be honest, witchcraft often increases in these seasons. There’s slander, opposition, and people speaking against you. It can feel like you’re constantly under fire, like time-wasting distractions are popping up everywhere, draining your energy when you’re already exhausted from the move. But this morning, I was reminded of Paul’s story in Acts 28. He was shipwrecked, stranded, and probably questioning how he ended up there. And honestly, in many seasons of transition, Christy and I have felt the same way - shipwrecked. Have you? I’ve felt like I led my family down the wrong path. I’ve cried out, God, did I really hear You? Why are we shipwrecked? But in that story, Paul lands on the island of Malta which interestingly means “place of honey” And on his first night there, in front of everyone, he is bitten by a snake. “Paul gathered a bundle of brushwood and, as he put it on the fire, a viper, driven out by the heat, fastened itself on his hand. When the islanders saw the snake hanging from his hand, they said to each other, ‘This man must be a murderer; for though he escaped from the sea, the goddess Justice has not allowed him to live.’ But Paul shook the snake off into the fire and suffered no ill effects.” Acts 28:3-5 And Paul does something simple yet profound: he shakes the snake off into the fire. The locals were watching, expecting him to die. But when he didn’t, they declared that he must be a god. This story gives us deep insight into transition opposition. Paul was stepping into a new land he had never been before, and that snake represented not only attacks and irritations but the principality of the region itself. And what did he do? He shook it off into the fire. So what does that mean for you and me? It means that in transition, we cannot be discouraged or distracted. We must shake off the witchcraft, shake off the slander, shake off the distractions, and throw them into the fire. We have to remember what the word of God says; Greater is He that is in you than he that is in the world.” 1 John 4:4 I have given you authority to trample on snakes and scorpions and to overcome all the power of the enemy; nothing will harm you.”Luke 10:19 The wicked flee though no one pursues, but the righteous are as bold as a lion.” Proverbs 28:1 Yes, transition is unsettling. Yes, stepping into a new place takes time. But we have authority. We have dominion. We have the power of the Holy Spirit. And we cannot let distractions and discouragement deter us. And here is something I do know and have seen every time - God is a God of recompense! I believe right now the Lord is saying: Where you have walked through robbery, I will restore. Where you have endured pain and drama, I will restore. Your responsibility? Do not be distracted. Shake the snake off into the fire. The “place of honey” is yours! Occupy it! Doug be bullied! But I want to end with this warning: We need extra discernment right now. I’ve seen it too many times where undiscerning Christians embrace the snake instead of shaking it off. Some even kiss the snake, aligning with that which is demonic, tainted, and defiled in a new season. The enemy effectively poisons their well before they even begin their journey. So I’m praying right now for discernment over you. “The Spirit clearly says that in later times some will abandon the faith and follow deceiving spirits and things taught by demons.” 1 Timothy 4:1 That’s the trap set for those who don’t discern well. Stepping into a new season but allowing defilement in. So discern well friends! So in this season of transition; Be very careful who you allow around you and what doors you open. Be cautious about what information you share and with whom. Be mindful of where you cast your pearls. Be intentional about what phone conversations you have and what messages you entertain. It might seem excessive, but it’s not. The snakes are coming from every angle, but they cannot harm you, unless you give them access. Transition opposition can actually be your greatest season of multiplication and increase. So consecrate this season to the Lord. Treat it as holy. Treat it as sacred. And watch as God settles you, establishes you, and launches you into the new anointing and mantle He has given you. Now, shake the snake off into the fire!

I have a word for those who feel like their brook has dried up. Those who feel as though their financial wells have run dry. There has been an assignment against the people of God in this season, an attempt to deplete your resources right when you need an abundance to build what God has called you to build. But here’s what happens when the well dries up: there is no movement. When the well runs dry, when the river ceases to flow, when financial resources dwindle, there is stagnation. The enemy knows that if he can dry up your wells, your resources and provision, he can keep you stuck. In 1 Kings 17:7-16, Elijah encountered a similar season of drought when the brook had dried up. The Lord directed him to Zarephath, where he prayed over the oil, and as long as they continued putting out jars, the oil kept flowing, filling every empty vessel. This is not just about personal provision, this is about Kingdom building for the greatest harvest of souls the earth has ever seen. We are standing at the threshold of a massive influx of people coming into the Kingdom, and God is looking for those who will build storehouses, training centers, apostolic hubs, and places of discipleship to contain the harvest. Movements must be established, and foundations must be laid. Yes, this is a season where the infrastructure for harvest must be established, and God is searching for builders and pioneers to accomplish it. The Lord has been highlighting that we must be ready to receive the flood of souls that is about to pour in. Many of you have been given blueprints, visions for revival centers, houses of prayer, missions bases, and creative hubs to disciple and equip people. But it feels like the resources have not come. Many have been asking, “God, I don’t understand what’s happening. I’ve been sowing faithfully. I’ve been giving and tithing, yet my wells seem to be drying up.” There has been a targeted attack against finances, small foxes have been stealing from the vine (Song of Solomon 2:15). These are some areas where I saw people being robbed: -Small, hidden financial losses accumulating over time -Unexpected emergencies and circumstances draining resources -Bad investments, contracts, partnerships, and business deals -Governmental and systemic financial oppression -Religious systems and misalignments -Delayed inheritances and financial breakthroughs The enemy has tried to rob, delay, dry up, and block the flow of provision, but the Lord is declaring: “Where the well has dried up, I am now releasing a flood of provision and breaking the assignment of lack. I am releasing the gold needed to build. I am releasing the provision to establish My plans in the earth. Where the enemy has stolen, I will restore. Where the wells have dried up, I will cause a fresh outpouring. I am funding My movements. I am resourcing My builders. I am providing for My pioneers. Do not fear, for I am unlocking what has been withheld!” Also, I want to highlight that there is a direct connection between financial drought and the Jezebel spirit. Think of what took place when Jezebel and Ahab ruled the land - a drought came! Jezebel’s witchcraftdisrupts financial flow. If you’ve noticed financial struggles during seasons of heavy spiritual warfare, this is part of the enemy’s strategy. But right now, God is canceling that assignment! He is warring against the attacks on finances, and we are stepping into a season of great stewardship and Kingdom wealth. I want to pray over you right now: For your wells to be full again and for brooks to flow once more. For dried-up jobs, finances, and provision to be restored. For debts to be paid off. For those whom God instructed to sow into you to be reminded and moved to obey. For unexpected sources of provision—divine connections, supernatural opportunities, and people moved by the Spirit to bless you. For the financial outpouring needed to build the places for harvest, disciple the flood of souls, and establish the movements God has placed in your heart. The provision you need to step into your destiny and calling, to build what God has told you to build, is coming now in the mighty name of Jesus! Lastly, I pray for those who have been attacked in legal battles over finances. The Lord is going to restore what the enemy has stolen, your time, your money, your health, all of it! These attacks have robbed you of the capacity to do what is in your heart to do. But now, by faith, step into what God has told you to do! The key in the story of Zarephath is this: “Put out the jars.” What does this mean practically? Move by faith. Get things in order. Start preparing as if the provision is already here. Take steps forward as if the finances have already arrived. And the oil will come, in Jesus name!
