I believe we are entering the era of the rebirth of the church after being in painful labor for many years and a year of contractions.
Recently, the Lord gave me two dreams that tied together and painted a picture of what He is doing right now.
THE SNAKE IN THE PIPE
In the first dream, I saw a large pipe, almost like a garden hose, and people standing around it saying, “Something is stuck in the pipe.” As I looked closer, I saw the tail of a snake clogging up the pipe.
I knew we had to get the snake out so the water could flow freely...so we gathered around the pipe and shook it violently. For what felt like forever, nothing happened. The snake wouldn’t budge. Then, suddenly, it started to come out, and as it attempted to get away the Lord crushed it and cut it in many pieces.
This dream represents the church and the flow of the Spirit. For the snake to be dislodged, we had to get uncomfortable and not only allow the shaking but PARTNER with it. We had to stop tolerating what had been clogging up the Spirit’s flow and desperately want the flow more than being comfortable or ignoring the problem.
This is what the Lord is doing in the church right now. He’s removing every blockage, every contaminant, and every area of complacency. He’s exposing and dealing with the demonic influences we’ve allowed and getting us uncomfortable and craving freedom so badly we will partner with His delivering work.
The Lord is saying to us that we cannot move forward with a clogged pipe. We cannot extend the borders of His kingdom until every contaminant is removed. Where we’re going, the river of the Lord has to flow freely once again.
The snake represents the serpent in the garden, the one who lied to Adam and Eve and led them away from the Tree of Life. That same serpent has lied to the church, leading us into reliance on our own understanding, our own methods, and even our own version of the gospel. It’s made us weak and powerless as we suffer under the false covering of another gospel and serving a counterfeit saviour.
But the Lord is dealing with the snake again. He’s clearing out every lie, every hindrance, and everything that’s been blocking the flow of His Spirit.
THE WOMAN IN DELIVERY
In the second dream, I saw a woman on a birthing table, giving birth to what I knew in the dream was the church. This was a rebirth.
But here’s the strangest part: under her foot, I saw the head of a snake crushed. It immediately reminded me of the scripture that says;
“I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring and her offspring; he shall bruise your head, and you shall bruise his heel.” Genesis 3:15
The Lord is saying that the church is in a season of refining for rebirth. We are entering a fresh flow of the Spirit, a move of God unlike anything we’ve seen before. But in this rebirth we are being awakened to WHO WE ARE & WHOSE WE ARE. We are in days where we will no longer tolerate the snake but we will crush him underfoot.
This is a season of great victory and authority. We will see the finished work of Jesus come to life in the church, and we’ll rise up in purity, power, and dominion as Gods conduits in a time of history where true disciples are needed more than ever before.
BACK TO SIMPLICITY
We are stepping back into the simplicity of the gospel. The church is returning to the days of Acts, where signs, wonders, and miracles follow those who believe. We’re moving away from man-made methods, celebrity Christianity, and empty religion, and following the Holy Spirit wherever He leads.
We’re about to see the greatest move of God the world has ever known. The harvest is coming, and God is raising up builders who will prepare for it. As the pipe is unclogged, there will be a hunger from the world for what God is pouring out. People will come running from the darkest places just to get a taste of the waters that flow out.
THIS IS ALSO YOUR REBIRTH
But this isn’t just a corporate word, it’s also personal. Where has the enemy been clogging up the flow of the Spirit in your life? Has he been lying to you? Surrounding you with fear, hopelessness, or constant battles that make you feel stuck?
The Lord is exposing the snake in your life, too. He’s pulling it out of every place where it has been coiled around your joy, your freedom, and your peace.
That snake that’s been trying to suffocate you is being removed. The delays, the heartbreak, the hope deferred, that have created strongholds and have made your heart sick are being broken. The Lord is uncoiling every bit of it. He’s unclogging the pipe and removing every remnant of the enemies assignments from your life.
This is your season of rebirth. And today the Lord is saying, “In this rebirth watch as I’m redoing what you thought passed you by. I’m reshaping you, reviving you, and breathing fresh life into you.”
Where you’ve felt stuck, you’re about to move forward. Where you’ve felt powerless, you’re about to rise up in authority. This next season will not only be one of rebirth but also one where you crush the serpent under your heel and begin to take back the ground that has been robbed from you in the last 4 -7 years.
THE BRIDE IS RISING
The body of Christ is stepping into the authority and simplicity of what God always intended. We’re coming back to the Acts 2 days, a place of joy, power, and the purity of the gospel.
The Lord is lifting the weight off your shoulders and leading you into His presence again where there is FULLNESS OF JOY. Let Him free you. Let Him refresh and renew you. Let Him begin the rebirth in your life.
And I see it. I see the waters crashing upon the shores and the church are running towards it. Many who are thirsty are quenching their thirst. Many who have been sick like naaman are running into the waters for healing.
The flow is increasing and the church are running towards it again.
This is our rebirth..
