5780 - the year of the roar

"This is the transcript from a live prophetic release on October 2nd 2019"

I feel like this is a word of awakening, this is a word of commissioning. I feel like this is a word that is going to call the lost home. This is a word that is going to commission sons and daughters. I feel like this is a word of consecration; I also feel like this is a word that is going to shift and align. I really feel like there was a real stirring on the Lord’s heart that needed to be decreed. Have you ever had those moments it feels like where the Lord is bubbling something up on the inside of you? It just feels like the Holy Spirit, His breath, His wind is just wanting to be released forth and I feel like this word was exactly that and I asked, “Lord how do you want me to bring forth this word?” 

There is weight in what the Lord is wanting to release in this hour. Allow this word to minister to you. What I mean by that is allow the Holy Spirit to minister to you where this is not just information but where the Holy Spirit will deeply stir you. I’m praying for the branding of the Holy Ghost to be released. I’m praying that there will be a fire that will be released; the winnowing fork, the separating fire, the holiness fire, the Commissioning fire.

THE NEW SOUND COMING FROM THE WILDERNESS

There’s a new sound; there is a bride arising in power, coming out. People will say, “who is this coming out of the wilderness?” You’re coming out of the wilderness. The Bride is rising and coming out of the wilderness. If there’s only one thing that I prophesied that you get it is this; I declare that THIS IS THE SEASON OF THE ROAR OF THE LORD COMING THROUGH YOU! 

It is the season of the roar of the Lord coming to a bride that is awoken to the new sound that is on the inside of them. I’ve been seeking the Lord about the new Jewish year 5780 and I feel like what I’m about to share, I want it to be fresh from the printing press of heaven; I want it to be straight from the throne. I want it to be unadulterated, unedited. I want it to be straight from the lips of the Father, straight from the floor of the throne room so Lord I say have your way and I just ask that every single person will be branded; that they won’t just hear information that they will be such a deep branding and burning that takes place in them God in Jesus mighty name; that there will be a power that will be released and that there is a transformation that is released in Jesus mighty name. Lord I pray that there are moves that are ignited and awakened and that the roar on the inside of them is awakened in Jesus mighty name. You are dormant no more! There’s a sound that is coming forth because it’s time for your voice to arise. Who is this coming out of the wilderness? I prophesy again that you are coming out of the wilderness! Whatever season you have been through, whatever transition you have walked through, whatever it has looked like for you; I decree, I prophesy it that you’re coming out of the wilderness and you’re coming out with a sound and a mighty rushing voice that is going to shift and change things in its wake in Jesus mighty name.

THE DECREE MUST GO OUT! 

There has never been a time in the earth that God’s people are needed to arise. This is a game changing season; this is a change of the guard, the turning of seasons and nations; the shaking of the church that causes us to step up to the plate. See it looks like we’re surrounded in the natural by chaos and darkness but what God has given us is the remedy. Think about Ezekiel, He stood in the valley of dry bones and God said to him, “prophesy Ezekiel to these bones; say to these dry bones, “hear the word of the Lord” and they came to life . This is the season that the decree must go out. Just as God spoke the earth into being, He is right now commissioning those that are created in his likeness and also carry His sound inside; It’s his DNA. When I speak, when you speak, it’s His very sound that is released out of you. His frequency as it is released through you, it smashes obstacles like rocks, it thunders and brings the earth into order. It roars and establishes justice, it resounds and realigns, re-orders and brings forth and produces in your life. It’s the sound of creation inside of you stirring and it’s the sound of creation waiting to burst forth to restore what has been broken down and robbed and stolen. There’s an awakening of that sound even right now being released over you. 

Some may be saying “I don’t even know what my sound is, it has been so long.” I just declare, “awaken, awaken oh sound. The roar inside of you must be awoken. You’re coming out of the wilderness with a new song and a new cry. It’s going to smash every obstacle and tear down walls. Everything that keeps taunting us. Just like David - he came out of the wilderness with the sound of a sling roaring in the air, and he took down w giant. That’s you and you’re coming out of the wilderness. You may have only seen things breaking around you and surrounding you and the warfare, but it has an expiry date. You can’t look at it like it’s going to last forever; it’s temporal. 

You’re coming out of the wilderness. 

A VOICE LIKE THUNDER

The church is coming into a season of power through the rising of a bride with a voice like thunder and lightning because we sound like our Daddy, we sound like the lion of the tribe of Judah. Oh, ride up Judah and get back your sound, get back your voice, get back your mighty decree. It’s time for you to awaken again. It’s a redemption plan. 

Romans 8:19 says “the entire universe is standing on tip toe, yearning to see the unveiling of God’s glorious sons and daughters for against His will, the universe itself has had to endure the empty futility resulting from the consequences of human sin but now with eager expectation all creation longs for freedom from slavery to experience the freedom coming to us as God’s children”

That’s what is happening right now in the earth.

THE ROAR COMING TO THE SURFACE

I asked the Lord about 5780 and the main message of this word that the Lord has been sharing with me is the rising of a mighty bride that is a voice and influence in the earth. This is the year of the roar of God’s people. See, when you think of the roar, you think of God’s roar. You think of the lion of the tribe of Judah but there is something that happens where the roar begins to come through you. It was never meant to be something that was only released from God. It was meant to be a sound that was released through a people, God’s Family, through sons and daughters who know their father’s voice. 

5780, THE PROPHETIC DECREE & THE EXPLOSION OF CREATIVITY

So, I was drawn to the number 80. Now, the number 80 is represented by the number Pey. Now Pey is the shape of a mouth which means to open, to blow, to scatter. It also means edge, like the edge of a sword which is sharp and accurate. This is all representative of action. So Pey is representative of the mouth that speaks and declares. It opens, it blows forth like a trumpet, it scatters enemies, it scatters things that have come against the people of God. It’s sharp, it hits its mark and I believe we’re coming into a time right now where the Church is finding its voice. It’s going to feel like a brand-new day for the church. We’ve known somewhat of what it feels like to have a voice but the world has never taken us seriously and now it’s time that we’ll be known as a voice, a contender and we’ll be a voice that they listen to because they will say, “where is this wisdom coming from? it’s beyond the wisdom that we carry and they’ll see the power that is released through our voices. So, the symbol Pey is actually made with two strokes using the letter Kaph and Yodh. 

UNEARTHING HIDDEN MYSTERIES & NEW BURSTS OF CREATIVITY

Kaph means a container, a symbol of a spoon or container and Yodh means a divine spark. Yodh is the spark of creation, the spirit wind needed to initiate and activate the unseen realm and the accessible mysteries of heaven. Yodh is in every single letter so in every sound you make, creation is released, and heaven’s treasures are revealed.

Yodh represents the active power of God that brings what has been hidden into the earth and what is laying dormant into surface; it’s the commissioning breath of God and Kaph is the container or the spoon. The container is the potential or the space needing to be filled. Psalm 81:10 says;

 “I am the Lord your God who brought you out of Egypt; open wide your mouth and I will fill it”

God is saying to you right now, “open wide your mouth and I will fill it;” that container and the spoon represents what bends and yields and in this season we have had to yield because it looked like we’re going through Egypt and the lord would say, “no it is your time to yield and let go and as you do I will fill you. I’ll give you what you need to speak and declare to open up the way and tear down the doors that seems to be unopened. You’re going forward and you will not go backwards. You’re going from glory to glory. It’s the power of God being released through his people. 

DELIVERANCE POWER RELEASED & THE RISING OF DELIVERERS

Also, we are in a season of great deliverance for the body of Christ and by deliverance, I mean ‘power’. The word deliverance actually means to turn back, to return and turn back. The body of Christ is turning back, it’s in a season of repentance, coming back to an original value or place; out of the culture of the world, out of the things that stole its gaze and its love and its affection. The Hebrew lexicon number 2020 is the word ‘Hatstsalah’ which means - to strip, to plunder, to deliver and to be delivered. I believe that we are in a time where God is bringing us back to an original value, but He’s also raising up the deliverers. He is raising up those who will shout and decree and release a trumpet sound; a new season and a new way and a new path and will declare, “we have been in Egypt for too long and the wilderness is no longer going to sustain us. We are coming into our Canaan!” We’re going to see the body of Christ enter into its Canaan. You are going to come into your Canaan, and it may be 20 or 30 years that you have been waiting or it may have only been 2 but “you are going to come into your season of promise,” says the Lord.

THE PURITY OF THE VOICE RESTORED & THE NEW PROPHETIC REMNANT

God brings us back to our first love, walking in the garden, hearing your voice. God, I want to be more in love, and I want to hear Your voice, your words, the things that come from Your heart God; I want to live, and man doesn’t live by bread alone but by every word that comes from God. Let us feast and let us just sit and linger in Your presence, Your word God. I feel a stirring in the spirit right now. I feel like the Spirit of God is doing something. It’s like a whirlwind beginning to pick up around your life. It’s the breath and wind of the Spirit of God coming upon the dormant and dead places of your life. It’s the breath of the Spirit of God. It’s like back in Ezekiel when He spoke. It’s the wind of God, The Spirit of God is beginning to be released and is bringing things to life; resurrection life being released right now in Jesus mighty name. 

“There’s a new prophetic remnant arising; the pure ones,” says the lord, “the ones that move in power.” See, the church lost its voice, but I heard the Lord say, “it’s time they got it back,” it’s time you got your voice back. They’ve used it for too long against each other and against the things that they don’t understand, but they are getting it back. We can’t be those prophetic people that live in rejection any longer. We are getting our voice back. 

THE HOT COALS OF COMMISSIONING

There are people that would say, “but I can’t speak, what can I do? What can I say? You want to talk about the year 5780? Moses was 80 years old when God spoke at the burning bush. There’s something that happens when you hear the voice of God; it speaks, it activates something on the inside of you. It brings things to the surface, sometimes; it looks like insecurities. The voice of God ,when He speaks it makes you realize, “I’m meant to sound like that.” When you’ve lost your voice and you hear the voice of the Lord you realize, “I’ve been robbed of my voice.” So many people have felt like that, “in this season I’ve allowed rejection, I’ve allowed hurt. I’ve allowed things to weigh me down, I’ve lost my voice God, Restore my voice God!”

Moses said to God, “what if they don’t believe me? What if they don’t listen to me? Many people have been saying that, what if I lift my voice? What if they don’t listen to me? What if they don’t believe me, What if I have no credibility? Who am I to speak? God said to Moses, “Did I not appear to you? Did I not speak to you? Did I not reveal my voice to you? Do you not know what I sound like?” Moses said, “Lord, I’ve never been eloquent, I’ve never been able to speak,” and in this one sentence God activated something that was dead. He released an anointing that enabled Moses to speak and he said, “go and I’ll help you speak and teach you what to say” and I feel like that is the commissioning of the Lord in this season of the church that God is giving his voice back to and He’s saying, “this is the time that you will speak, now go, I’ll help you and I’ll speak and I’ll give you what you need to say. It’s the commissioning of Jeremiah who said, “God I’m just a youth, I’m no one. Why would you speak to me? Why would you use me God” and God would say, “you’re not a youth.” Maybe you feel unlearned, untrained, you feel like, “what have I got to say?” The Lord would say “I will give you what to say.” It is not about you or your wisdom or your revelation so it’s simply about being a yielded vessel to God. It’s the commissioning season of Isaiah. You feel unworthy, you feel like a sinner and God touched his lips with hot coals and He wrote chapters filled with the prophecies of the coming King. 

THE STEWARDING OF A SOUND THAT CAUSES WOMBS TO LEAP

You don’t even know what God is going to give you to speak and to say. In this season you don’t even know the weight and the depth of what’s going to happen as you release a mighty roar and a mighty sound on the inside of you. You might feel stuck and that there are no options around you but as you begin to release your sound, it doesn’t matter if you don’t see anything immediately changing, as you’re obedient to release as you are here just to say, “God let me be a voice;” even if it’s just in your home. It might just be the songs in the night, it might just be the songs you sing to him, releasing into the atmosphere as you’re talking to children at bed and you’re praying over them and you’re prophesying and speak in destiny. It’s not always words that are spoken from the rooftops or in stadiums or on pulpits, it is the stewarding of a sound; it is the stewarding of the intent and purposes of God that are released through pure people. Prophets only see in part. The people of God are rising up as one united sound. There’s something that happens when you speak; things shift around us, people beginning to get ignited. I believe in this season as you decree, people are going to get pregnant around you. Amos 3:4-8 says this, 

“Does the Lion roar in the thicket when it has no prey? Does it growl when it has caught nothing? So, the Lord does nothing without revealing His plans to His servants, the prophets. The Lion has roared who will not fear, the sovereign Lord has spoken who can but prophesy?” 

See when the roar of the Lord goes forth, it awakens the roar on His people and when the roar goes forth, it awakens a generation called to be a mighty sound and a mighty voice in the earth. Awaken your sound!

THE MISSING FREQUENCIES & THE RESTORATION OF THE OUTCASTS

This time last year, I had this encounter with the Lord where I saw a sound spectrum and I said, “Lord what am I looking at?” He said to me that it was the sound of the bride, but the sound would break and there was something that was missing. There was the full spectrum of sound, but I could only hear from one frequency. I felt the grief on His heart. He said, “who will find them? Who will go for them?” I said, “who Lord” and He said, the forgotten ones.” Just recently, I had a dream which explains what God was showing me in this dream. In this dream, I was walking down this dark street in the city. I stopped at this alley way where I saw all these people and I was speaking, and some were singing but they all carried the same feeling; I felt off. I stopped to listen and I instantly in the dream discerned that this was a prophetic people I was hearing that these were prophets who were hurt; they were rejected; they were burned out prophets; they were bitter; they were in pain and they were prophesying through that pain and they were speaking all types of things that were just not from the heart of God. See, the calling and the mantle was real, but their souls were sick; the heart was sick and as I looked closer, I saw that many had limbs missing off their bodies.

When I woke up from the dream, I said “Lord what have I just seen?” He said, “what you have just seen is a bride without limbs. My bride needs its limbs back. It needs to be whole.” He said to me what He had said a year ago; “who will go for them? Who will find them? Who will raise up the outcast, the rejected and the bitter? Who will bring them home?” We’re leaving in a season where the sons and daughters are coming home. God is awakening them again. God is awakening the forgotten sound. He’s awakening the voices. He’s healing hearts. We’re going to see them come home. 

If you’re bitter, burnt out or rejected or abandoned the Lord is saying, “this is a season that you are coming home,” This is a season where God is restoring you and He’s healing you because you have a voice but you’ve been bitter, you’ve been hurt, you’ve been rejected and forgotten but the Lord says, “you’re coming home” He’s awakened everything that was stolen from you. He’s awakening. 

THE REVEALING OF SONS & DAUGHTERS & THE FRESH MANTLING OF MOTHERS & FATHERS

See, this is a season of the convergence of Malachi 4:5-6 and Romans 8:19 - The earth is longing for the sons and daughters to be revealed but we need the fathers and the mothers to turn their hearts towards the sons and the sons towards the fathers. It’s the convergence of a season of the revealing of the body of Christ in power and authority and the restoration and the rescue of the forgotten remnants. Who will be the ones who will go after the one? Who will be a home for them? They’re coming home. So, mothers and fathers come forth in this season. You’re not done; you have to train the younger ones. Use your sound to raise up the voices, train them up and raise them up.

Recently, I was with a general in the faith. As I was with him, I was taken up into a vision where I saw mothers and fathers, - generals, and they were cheering on a generation that was rising and saying “go, go, go!” and with them, in the cloud of witnesses, were past generals of the faith saying the same thing “go, go, go!” As I came out of the vision, I looked around me; in that moment, I was actually sitting with a group o emerging ones that God was raising up in this hour. I looked back over to this general and I saw a Baton in his hand. See, this is a passing of the baton season. It’s the Elijah throwing the mantle upon the Elisha’s. It’s the double portions season, it’s the multiplication. The mantle that was upon one man, upon one individual or a group or company of individuals is being released over a generation. 

THE FRESH YES COMING OUT OF A DIFFICULT TRANSITION

Who will say yes? I remember when I was 13, I was in a youth service and there was a song that said “Here I am, use me and send me.” This is another season where God is asking, “can I use you? Can I send you? Will you lift your voice? Will you stand to be counted?”

It’s difficult sometimes to imagine being used by God when you have been in a difficult transition where all that you were seeing was ruin around you but that’s the interesting thing about transition; you’re either weighed down by the thing that has been against you or it only reveals to you the destiny that is multiplying in front of you.

Release your roar! I prophesy this right now over you. I also declare this now for the church. Church it’s time to release your roar! You’re coming out of the wilderness, Release your roar! In the name of Jesus, the mighty sound that is on the inside of you come forth in Jesus mighty name! Release your roar. There’s a deep crying out to deep right now; the glory of God is beginning to come. King of Glory release the sound of a generation. We will not be silent anymore because Jezebel had tried to take our sound and make Eunuchs instead of Prophets, Orphans instead of Sons and Daughters but that won’t be the case anymore. You’re releasing a sound of war over the nations. These sons and daughters are coming to their post. The sons and daughters are stepping up to their posts and we’re coming to align, we’re coming to decree; we’re coming to declare and set the captives free; oh yes we’re coming. 

THE RISING SYMPHONY & THE UNLOCKING OF DESTINY OVER PEOPLE & NATIONS 

Can you see us coming? It might only look like a small sound but together we’re a symphony ringing out in the earth. Release your roar! God is just doing heart surgery right now He’s touching your life right now so just yield and say, “yes God.” He’s severing things that have just been holding you captive, mindsets and ties to old things and old seasons. It’s the roar of the Lord that is beginning to come through you.

We say yes to this new year God. I see these divine sparks and it’s the sound and voice of God commissioning over people. Some are for cities and nations some are voices that will be sent into areas of creativity that will unlock and bring the body of Christ forward. I just see that there’s a resurgence and a renaissance season that were stepping into in 2020 of the body of Christ coming into a resurgence of creativity and the innocence that was lost God is saying, “I’m bringing you back to the heart of worship, I’m bringing back a simple song in the night, I’m bringing back your simple cry in the wilderness like David were you just play your guitar in the middle of the night and call out My name and it wasn’t for a purpose or to look like something, you were just singing.” God raise up the David’s in this season, raise up the psalmists that are going to come forth in this season that will break up the way for a mighty outpouring. There’ll be songs that will be song like anthems, there’ll be songs that will be songs that will break through in hard ground; even right now the Lord is releasing new sounds, He’s releasing the words and things that need to be released I just see people being given messages that are like arrows of justice that are going into broken down systems of society and God is given voices. I feel like the Lord is releasing a blessing over homes through the roar of Breakthrough.

THE SOUND OF RESTORATION 

Let me share a few things that the roar does. The roar brings unity, the roar brings healing to marriages and families in relationships, the roar also removes wrong relationships and alignments. The roar restores what has been, it uncovers what has been hidden, it unlocks doors that have been out of reach and restores us back to our original value and our design. So what is God doing through you as you release a roar? You are making earth look like heaven; you’re making your home look like heaven. Husbands, wives, God is asking you to make your home look like heaven through your decree; don’t give up on the promises in this season. This is the time where you need to decree it. This is the time where you need to remember what God said and bring it forth and create into the earth. It’s a season of creativity, it’s your season that your sound is going to go forth, it’s going to tear down and scatter the things that have been trying to come and war against your life and the people of God, against His church. He is going to restore and He’s going to align and He’s going to create He’s going to build. He’s going to transport you from glory to glory. Where you had felt delayed and stuck, it’s going to transport you from one place to another. Release your roar!

THE ACTIVATION OF YOUR SOUND, FILLING EMPTY SEATS, & THE WEIGHTIER ANOINTING

If this word has spoken to you, begin to cry out, “Holy Spirit, release my sound, teach me how. I forgot what it sounds like so remind me what it sounds like when I sound like you God; when I release your voice, when I release your sound, it shows me what it sounds like when I make earth like heaven. There’s a commissioning of the mouth pieces of God, emerging ones, emerging ones come forth! I’m just seeing in the Spirit that there are these positions and roles that the Lord is saying, “I need them filled, the empty seats in my house,” there are empty seats; “step into your rightful places,” says the Lord, “stop dancing on the fringes of your destiny and jump headfirst right into it,” says the Lord. There’s a weightier place that he’s calling you and right now I speak to the prophetic voices, there’s a weightier place that he’s calling you. He’s calling you to the deeper places. He’s calling you to the deeper waters. It’s time to step in to your rightful place. It’s time to step into your zone, says the Lord. The Lord says, “there’re new metrons, there are new regions and nations that I’ve giving you; there are new keys that are going to unlock doors of government and nations. 

You carry strategies that will unlock anything.”  He says, “I have fortified and anointed you. You’re going to break through.” God is raising up those, He’s calling the Zerubabels. Who will carry the signet ring of the Lord and bring the people of the Lord out of captivity into their places of promise? They’ll see the places that have been laid waste restored. Deliverers take them from Egypt and the wilderness to the Promised land. Yes, that’s right, the Lord is taking you, but it doesn’t end with that. The Lord says, “then you’ll be a deliverer of nations, a discipler of nations, you will unlock what has been held up, you’ll unlock what has been hidden.” This is the season of the mouth that the voices are being released upon the earth that are going to break forth things that have been hidden. Inheritances are coming forth.

So, I just declare it in the name of Jesus! I prophesy it that this is the season of the mighty roar coming forth of the church in Jesus mighty name. Now declare over yourself that “this is my season that my mighty roar comes forth in Jesus mighty name” and many of you in this season you have been struggling because you have not seen any fruit and power, but “this is the season where you will see fruit and this is the season where you will see power,” says the Lord in Jesus mighty name. There’s creativity being released, songs in the night and dreams of the night; it’s coming like rain, tender kisses from the Father. I encourage you in this season to come back to your first love and come away from distractions and let the Father’s voice become the loudest thing that you hear so that He reveals your roar that’s needed. You need your roar, you need your authority, you need your sound to be released because we need you. Join the symphony; release your voice and release your sound in Jesus mighty name! I bless you and I pray an incredible week for you and an incredible year for you and that this will be a year that you see the fruit and power of your obedience to be a voice for God.

RELATED prophetic WORDS:

By Nate Johnston November 20, 2024
A few days ago, I shared a few thoughts I had randomly posted on social media about how things were going to look different in the days ahead. They bubbled out of my spirit because it just felt overwhelmingly obvious and apparent that there had been a shift. But I felt I needed to give a little more language to this. Now that we are here, I can see how the last four years have been leading us to this very point. Maybe even the last 7 years too. While this word is not political in nature—and regardless of where you stand—it has to be said - the recent election was a major tectonic shift, not only for the United States but for the world. It was that significant. A marker moment. In the spirit, I could see it—a major eruption in the deep that ignited thousands more around the world. I knew right then and there that things were never going to be the same again. It’s crazy how one event can spark so many others, but that’s exactly what it felt like. The world I knew and the life I knew before that day were going to be different. It’s like when 9/11 happened. The world changed in a moment. And in the same way—except positively—this one event converged with the timing of heaven, where God was unleashing something upon the earth. WELCOME TO THE NEW DAWN I believe we are at the dawn of a new day in the body of Christ. But a change that I believe is going to challenge us all deeply. It’s going to challenge us to abandon the survival mentality we’ve grown used to over the years. Suddenly, a door has opened and we are on the other side of something. Soon we will see that the battles of yesterday will fade away as we discover we are no longer in that valley we have camped in for years. We will no longer wrestle with many of the battles that defined the previous season. We may no longer deal with constant red tape and bureaucracy, delays, hope deferred, constant difficulties, or relentless warfare over simple things. But it’s not that there are no battles anymore—it’s just that the nature of the battle has shifted. When Joshua led the Israelites into the Promised Land, the battle didn’t stop—it changed form. In the wilderness, their struggles were rooted in the harsh environment, discouragement, disappointment, and the mindset of slavery in Egypt. But as soon as they entered the Promised Land, they were surrounded by incredible wealth, resources, and food. They no longer faced the wilderness battles they once did. Instead, they faced new giants in the land. The battle shifted from mental and emotional challenges to an offensive conquest to take territory and evict its inhabitants. After years in the wilderness the Israelites had to learn to wield their sword again and fight with authority. But to effectively wage war in their new season, they had to believe they were powerful and walk in their authority. I believe that’s where we are right now - a season of governmental occupation. The things we’ve been contending for and persisting in may no longer be relevant. We’re shifting into an entirely new playing field of kingdom conquest. And if you are wondering what the next chapter looks like this is what I see. Battles and dead giants. Challenges and great victories. The stakes have gone up but you and I were born for this. It’s going to cause the spiritually dead to come alive and run into their destiny! Beyond this moment, the body of Christ is stepping into something radically different and we need new eyes to see it so we don’t fall back into the death of routine. THE WINESKIN IS CHANGING For years we have known that the old, tattered wineskin we’ve held onto for so long is no longer effective. It cannot sustain the move of God starting to crash on our shores. In fact, when God shows up our current wineskin will seem embarrassing if we are still holding it. Many will see that they haven’t been ready. We’ve been trying to contain God, use God, monopolize God, and brand every revival under our banner. But worse we have believed revival to be one thing based on old seasons when it now looks completely different. There will be no experts beyond this point —only novices at the feet of Jesus. Those sitting on lofty thrones of ambition and milestones will find their structures collapsing. We can no longer build our lives around museums of the past. We must fix our gaze on the future and where God is leading us. A NEW IDENTITY This is a season where God is redefining how we see ourselves in Christ. Over the last four years, God’s people have seen themselves in such a small light. We’ve underestimated who we are in Him, and God is now reinventing us. He’s reminding us of who we are. God is calling us to pull out the stones of remembrance. He’s saying: “Remember where you’ve been. Remember what I’ve brought you through. Now look ahead to where you’re going.” This is the dawn of a new day, a new beginning. We are shifting from survival mentality and wilderness thinking into a place of thriving. We are rediscovering what it means to live with inheritance. We’re returning to sonship and being fathered by God in ways we’ve lost sight of. We’re returning to the BURNING of the original call and fire in our bellies that sent us out. The old map is the new map I hear the lord saying. DELIVERANCE AND RESTORATION This is an hour of deliverance—not just from old methods and traditions but also from the things we’ve normalized. We’ve normalized mental health struggles, depression, and dysphoria. We’ve coddled demons and called it loving or comforting. Now, God is addressing these areas where the church has fallen for other lovers. He’s confronting the lies we’ve believed about ourselves and about Him. As we step into this new day, it will be both confronting and freeing. It’s the tension of saying: “Thank God that season is over!” But also: “Oh no, it’s time to put my big boy pants on.” Yes, this change requires greater maturity and responsibility. THE CICADA STUCK ON THE TREE As I shared that small word I had a glimpse of a childhood memory. Of a favorite tree I used to climb that regularly had hundreds of cicada shells on it. I knew the lord was speaking to me about the church. You see, we have talked for years about the new era, the crossing over, the new wineskin, and the changing of the guard in the church. We have said statements like “The age of empires is over, and the days of family have begun.” But what does that mean and what is the cicada? The cicada is the church and the shell is the church coming out of an old and outdated way. We have been in a season of grace to transition out but now it’s time to leave it in the tree. Let it die. And finally come back to the original plan. Why because Acts 2 is upon us! We are coming back, full circle to Gods first church and shedding off the layers of man. HUMILITY AND AWAKENING Right now many trying to sustain the old regime are growing weary. They’ll soon realize it’s time to lay down their hats and surrender at His feet. Even those who have been worker bees for the old hive are feeling the pull of this awakening. Blindfolds are coming off en masse. There will be a brief coup—a deviant sect claiming to be the new thing but rooted in humanism and man’s wisdom. They will reject the call to humility. For a while, it may seem to divide prophetic voices. But once the fresh move of God crashes upon the earth, even these will repent and surrender. This move will humble the proud, and brokenness will bring deliverance to the rebellious. We will witness thousands running to the altar to exchange their achievements for a glimpse of His face—the very thing they started out pursuing. ALL FOR HIM What we thought was the kingdom is being redefined. What we thought was Jesus is being made clear. All false gospels are being exposed. In this moment, the Father is delivering us from religion and our own ambitions. He is aligning our calling with His purposes. He is becoming our everything. And I don’t know about you, but I can’t do things the same anymore. It’s no longer a time to fear man, rely on common sense, or prioritize rationale. We must move where He is moving—at all costs. DIAGNOSING THE SEASON The change is in the air. You can feel it. It’s as if the spiritual temperature around you has shifted—something is different, and you can’t ignore it. Here are some practical indicators of a season change: You sense an internal shift. Your desires and appetites have changed. What once satisfied you no longer feels relevant, and you find yourself longing for something new, something deeper. You feel like you can’t go back, even if you tried. The door to the old season has been shut, and there’s no way to reopen it. God is making it clear that what was behind you is no longer an option. There’s an urgency or longing that wasn’t there yesterday. Perhaps you feel a fresh sense of expectancy stirring in your spirit—like the ground beneath you is about to move, and you need to be ready to act. You can feel the weight of the shift. Even if you can’t fully articulate it, you know that the path ahead is uncharted, and God is inviting you to trust Him in a new way. Take time to tune into what the Holy Spirit is saying in this moment. Ask yourself, “What is He calling me to leave behind? What is He drawing me toward? What doors are opening, and which ones have closed?” This is not a time to resist the shift—it’s a time to step into it with faith and courage. God is moving, and He’s calling you to move with Him. PIONEERING A NEW PATH And we have entered a season of fresh pioneering. The old ways of advancing the kingdom will no longer work because God is leading us into uncharted territory. We can’t rely on formulas, traditions, or comfort zones. We must embrace the new path God is carving out before us. This requires us to step out in faith, even when we don’t have all the answers. Pioneering isn’t about having everything figured out—it’s about trusting the One who goes before us. Just as the Israelites had to follow the Ark of the Covenant into the unknown, we must keep our eyes fixed on Jesus and move where He leads. Pioneers it’s time again ti create pathways for others to follow. This is your moment to rise. THE CHARGE TO RENEGADES AND THE NEW DAY SCRIBES And just as we need pioneers, we need untamed renegades and new day scribes and prophets to write the introduction to this new chapter and lead us forward. This is not a time for polished perfection or cookie-cutter ministry. This is a time for wild obedience, raw passion, and unrelenting faith. Renegades, the body of Christ needs your courage. You were made to confront the giants in the land and tear down the altars of compromise. Your boldness will inspire others to rise up and take their place in this new era. Scribes and prophets, your words will ignite fires of revival. Pick up your pens. Open your mouths. The Spirit of God is ready to pour out fresh revelation through you. This generation needs your voice to declare the truths of heaven. Write the blueprints. Prophesy the new path. Lead the charge. We need your untamed hearts to step into this season unafraid of man’s opinions. We need your voices to call the church back to purity and intimacy with Jesus. This is your commissioning moment. I feel to say this - the fresh permission of heaven is upon you! Go where no one else will go. Say what no one else will say. Build what no one else will build. The world is waiting. The church is waiting. Heaven is watching. Let’s turn the page together. “Then the Lord said to Moses, ‘Why are you crying out to me? Tell the Israelites to move on.” Exodus 14:15 “Enlarge the place of your tent, stretch your tent curtains wide, do not hold back; lengthen your cords, strengthen your stakes. For you will spread out to the right and to the left; your descendants will dispossess nations and settle in their desolate cities.” Isaiah 54:2-3

On Sunday, the 17th of November 2024, I had a vision of a field being harvested by a massive harvester. As I got closer to the field, I could see that over half of it was not full of wheat but full of weeds. And I said, “Lord, what is this? What are we looking at?” Knowing already, I realized I was seeing the tares among the wheat. I began to feel discouraged that there were actually so many weeds. This isn’t the great harvest that I believed I would see in my lifetime. And the Lord said to me, “No, this is the harvest before the harvest. This is the time of division that brings repentance and a decision for the body of Christ, so that the next harvest we step into will be the great harvest that was prophesied.” It was then that I saw the harvesting machine crush down the weeds into the soil. And then I felt like the Lord was saying, “But this will be one of the most fruitful times, because the weeds that have been working against the wheat all this time will now be used as fertilizer for the harvest.” This is not a time to fear as things suddenly feel more divided, because it’s not a time of polarizing or dividing the church but of bringing those who have not been bearing fruit—and who have been listening to the voice of the enemy—into a time of great decision. “Will they choose Me, or will they choose man? Will they follow Jesus, or will they follow another version of Jesus?” I heard Him say. Friends, I believe that right now we can either look at the division around us on the earth as something negative, or we can see it as part of a harvest that is leading and pointing us to the greater harvest that has been prophesied. It’s not a time to get discouraged or to hang up our tools. It’s not a time to stop speaking or to stop forging ahead. It’s actually a time to celebrate and get ready because God is leading us toward the great harvest. We’re going to see an incredible reaping of souls in the days to come. I truly believe this is the time where the Lord is saying, “Get the barn ready. Get the barn ready for what I’m about to pour out!” Don’t look to the critics or the naysayers. Don’t look to those who are prophesying doom and gloom, because God is not done with America, and He’s not done with the nations. For while there will be great tension and clashing of ideals and kingdoms, this will be the shaking that shakes the church awake and the right way up! Acts 2 is already upon us and our best days are ahead.

A few days ago, I shared a few thoughts I had randomly posted on social media about how things were going to look different in the days ahead. They bubbled out of my spirit because it just felt overwhelmingly obvious and apparent that there had been a shift. But I felt I needed to give a little more language to this. Now that we are here, I can see how the last four years have been leading us to this very point. Maybe even the last 7 years too. While this word is not political in nature—and regardless of where you stand—it has to be said - the recent election was a major tectonic shift, not only for the United States but for the world. It was that significant. A marker moment. In the spirit, I could see it—a major eruption in the deep that ignited thousands more around the world. I knew right then and there that things were never going to be the same again. It’s crazy how one event can spark so many others, but that’s exactly what it felt like. The world I knew and the life I knew before that day were going to be different. It’s like when 9/11 happened. The world changed in a moment. And in the same way—except positively—this one event converged with the timing of heaven, where God was unleashing something upon the earth. WELCOME TO THE NEW DAWN I believe we are at the dawn of a new day in the body of Christ. But a change that I believe is going to challenge us all deeply. It’s going to challenge us to abandon the survival mentality we’ve grown used to over the years. Suddenly, a door has opened and we are on the other side of something. Soon we will see that the battles of yesterday will fade away as we discover we are no longer in that valley we have camped in for years. We will no longer wrestle with many of the battles that defined the previous season. We may no longer deal with constant red tape and bureaucracy, delays, hope deferred, constant difficulties, or relentless warfare over simple things. But it’s not that there are no battles anymore—it’s just that the nature of the battle has shifted. When Joshua led the Israelites into the Promised Land, the battle didn’t stop—it changed form. In the wilderness, their struggles were rooted in the harsh environment, discouragement, disappointment, and the mindset of slavery in Egypt. But as soon as they entered the Promised Land, they were surrounded by incredible wealth, resources, and food. They no longer faced the wilderness battles they once did. Instead, they faced new giants in the land. The battle shifted from mental and emotional challenges to an offensive conquest to take territory and evict its inhabitants. After years in the wilderness the Israelites had to learn to wield their sword again and fight with authority. But to effectively wage war in their new season, they had to believe they were powerful and walk in their authority. I believe that’s where we are right now - a season of governmental occupation. The things we’ve been contending for and persisting in may no longer be relevant. We’re shifting into an entirely new playing field of kingdom conquest. And if you are wondering what the next chapter looks like this is what I see. Battles and dead giants. Challenges and great victories. The stakes have gone up but you and I were born for this. It’s going to cause the spiritually dead to come alive and run into their destiny! Beyond this moment, the body of Christ is stepping into something radically different and we need new eyes to see it so we don’t fall back into the death of routine. THE WINESKIN IS CHANGING For years we have known that the old, tattered wineskin we’ve held onto for so long is no longer effective. It cannot sustain the move of God starting to crash on our shores. In fact, when God shows up our current wineskin will seem embarrassing if we are still holding it. Many will see that they haven’t been ready. We’ve been trying to contain God, use God, monopolize God, and brand every revival under our banner. But worse we have believed revival to be one thing based on old seasons when it now looks completely different. There will be no experts beyond this point —only novices at the feet of Jesus. Those sitting on lofty thrones of ambition and milestones will find their structures collapsing. We can no longer build our lives around museums of the past. We must fix our gaze on the future and where God is leading us. A NEW IDENTITY This is a season where God is redefining how we see ourselves in Christ. Over the last four years, God’s people have seen themselves in such a small light. We’ve underestimated who we are in Him, and God is now reinventing us. He’s reminding us of who we are. God is calling us to pull out the stones of remembrance. He’s saying: “Remember where you’ve been. Remember what I’ve brought you through. Now look ahead to where you’re going.” This is the dawn of a new day, a new beginning. We are shifting from survival mentality and wilderness thinking into a place of thriving. We are rediscovering what it means to live with inheritance. We’re returning to sonship and being fathered by God in ways we’ve lost sight of. We’re returning to the BURNING of the original call and fire in our bellies that sent us out. The old map is the new map I hear the lord saying. DELIVERANCE AND RESTORATION This is an hour of deliverance—not just from old methods and traditions but also from the things we’ve normalized. We’ve normalized mental health struggles, depression, and dysphoria. We’ve coddled demons and called it loving or comforting. Now, God is addressing these areas where the church has fallen for other lovers. He’s confronting the lies we’ve believed about ourselves and about Him. As we step into this new day, it will be both confronting and freeing. It’s the tension of saying: “Thank God that season is over!” But also: “Oh no, it’s time to put my big boy pants on.” Yes, this change requires greater maturity and responsibility.
