ARE YOU OVER THE SWIRL? GET BACK YOUR AIR SUPERIORITY!

ARE YOU OVER THE SWIRL? GET BACK YOUR AIR SUPERIORITY!

For months now the air has been swirling with interference because we are in a “birthing the new” season. From new and fresh blueprints and ideas, strategies, out of the box revelation, to direction and clarity, creativity, messages, and movements that all need to be BROUGHT FORTH. From dreams and downloads to the church breaking out of old mindsets, wineskins, and tired and “stuck” ways.

The enemy knows how Important this PUSH is and so in this critical moment he has been trying to hit us on all sides to DELAY or STOP the birth.

It’s like when you begin to feel contractions begin but then suddenly you are hit with an unexpected emergency that snaps you out of that rhythm.

The interruptions have been endless and nonstop. If you are birthing then you know what I am talking about.

So many have been experiencing spiritual bullying and assault for months now because the enemy is afraid of what you are stepping into and birthing.

He sees that you haven’t backed down when he tried to take you out and now you are ripe and ready to step into your COMEBACK season so he has doubled down to crash your victory.

His tactic has been simple - to SURROUND you and DISTRACT you with multiple assignments and diversions, and in the last few months and increasingly in the last few weeks this has gone to another level.

SOME SIGNS OF THE SWIRL

These are some of the things we have discerned taking place;

Witchcraft and chatter - The enemy prodding people to talk about you, assume your motives and character, or be jealous of you/competition.
Character assassination - The enemy stirring people to curse you in the spirit which unleashes a firestorm of problems to come your way.
Strife and relational disconnect - This comes at core relationships and intimacy/communication in marriage and wars against you being on the same page.
Fear-bombing - hitting you with foreboding and Irrational worries and outcomes.
Warfare dreams and night disruption - Causing sudden issues with sleep in your house from sleeplessness, anxiety, tormenting thoughts at the same time every night, and warfare dreams.
Repetitive dreaming - God may actually highlight the direction the words are coming from by showing you over and over.
Territorial confrontations - This is when the enemy wants you to step back by enlisting threatened and insecure people to come at you marking their zone and giving you the verbal shove-back into your box.
Narcissistic encounters & gaslighting - When you get hit with encounters with people suddenly belittling you and cutting you down to cause you to give up.
Random people popups- In times like this we notice that people who have been famous for speaking against you will suddenly contact you out of nowhere trying to engage in relationship or conversation.
Information requests - This is where you will suddenly get bombarded with random messages and people who aren’t in your inner circle wanting information about your life, what you are doing, and where you are going. Don’t give it to them! Witchcraft operates on information!
Information overload - This is where you are bombarded by information, news, opinions, bad reports, and unnecessary information that seems to affect your ability to think clearly and spiritually discern and see correctly.
Surveillance spirits - In the same way, that information fuels spiritual chatter the enemy sends spirits to surveil you and often through people scrolling and secretly searching for information about you. Shut them out! Ask God to show you who are the lookers.
Soulish claims made on you - This may sound strange but I have discerned where people believe they own you or have some claim owing by you in some way. This can often be family, parents, or past leaders. This is a demonic contract you need to tear up!
Prayers of harm - This is where people straight-up pray words of harm and sickness coming to you and blindly feel justified in their conviction to do so.
Favor doors shutting - People praying and speaking that God would humble you and close doors but it comes from a place of insecurity, not protection like they believe.
Opportunities and sideshows - Great opportunities appearing out of nowhere that are sent to get your eyes off what you are birthing.
Wrong partnerships - When the enemy uses manipulative people to convince you to partner with them but they are just there to steal your ointment and ride your the blessing you went through hell for.
Jobs friends - When the enemy sends friends that are earthly wise, fickle, and will backstab your when you are away so you feel like you can’t trust anyone. So instead of having the right people in the delivery room you have none and step out lonely.
Pressures and expectations - Unexpected pressure and expectations coming at you from every angle to burn you out and steal your energy.
The silent treatment - Where you can feel a muzzling over your mouth. You have much to say but feel somehow like there is something in the way or preventing you from speaking up.
Creative block and confusion - Where your spirit is brimming and ripe with revelation and creativity but the words and ideas just aren’t connecting. It feels like you are under a cloud of confusion and heaviness and are getting more and more frustrated as time goes on.
Red tape and messes - Where simple processes seem to get held up, tied up, or delayed. It’s where you feel like you have twenty messes around you and other time-consuming tasks to do.
Tech crashes and cyber warfare - Where computer crashes, website crashes, constant tech problems, trolls, bots, and online situations occur that you don’t normally have. This is cyber warfare and is a war against your voice.
Strange health issues - Back, neck, and nerve pain, headaches, vertigo, and nausea out of nowhere.
Financial hold-ups - Where for no reason you have payment, bank, and financial hold-ups.
The dogs are barking around you - The enemy is stirring up strife nearby in multiple places and trying to tempt you to throw a rock in.
The checkout - Where the enemy convinces you that it’s time to pay the check and run. It’s been too hard and too long and you just want to settle and forfeit the call.

Do any of those seem familiar to you? Did you recognize them at the time?

ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!

A few days ago as I was listening to a crisis phone call conversation the Holy Spirit interrupted the interruption and said “Enough is enough! I am issuing a restraining order on the enemy! I am tying his hands!”

“I will save you from the hands of the wicked and deliver you from the grasp of the cruel.” Jeremiah 15:21

A restraining order is a protective order used by a court to protect a person in a situation involving violence, abuse, harassment, stalking, or assault.

As he said these words I felt the justice and judgment of the Lord against the enemy and felt strongly that we were about to see every single area of demonic violence, harassment, bullying, abuse, and assault rectified by the spirit of God personally and globally.

God is going to shut down every single access point and blind every single demon oppressing you so they are unable to again.

Then I sensed that this was not just for this particular battle but justice for those who have been fighting the same warfare for many years even decades. The enemy has been playing this hand for a long time and the Lord is right now moving in His power but He is also equipping us to understand how this operates in the spiritual realm better.

I asked Him for more understanding on how to overcome these attacks and He said three things;

1. BINDING THE STRONG MAN

“Bind the strongman!” Mark 3:27 says;

“But no one can enter a strong man's house and plunder his goods, unless he first binds the strong man. Then indeed he may plunder his house”

The enemy is mad because we are taking back our inheritance and territory so we must bind him, RESTRAIN him as we take back what is ours. The word “bind” here means to tie, fasten, and declare to be prohibited and unlawful. This is speaking for us to CONFRONT the enemy instead and disarm his plans. Also in a legal context, we are to restrain him according to this scripture and many others such as James 4:7 and Mathew 18:18.

2) WE OVERCOME BY THE BLOOD OF THE LAMB

Next i heard “My people need to know the covenant I made with them!” - referring to the blood of the lamb at Calvary. We know that we overcome by the blood of the lamb and the word of our testimony(Revelation 12:11) but we do far less remembering this by taking communion as often as we should before and even through crazy times. Secondly, we need the testimony. We need the prophetic pure decree to break through the air when it feels thick.

3) KEEP YOUR GATES UP!

The next thing He said was “Your gates are down oh Judah!” and I had to look up what he was meaning when I found this;

“Stand at the gate of the LORD’s house and there proclaim this message: “’Hear the word of the LORD, all you people of Judah who come through these gates to worship the LORD” Jeremiah 7:2

Judah which means praise is our worship, and during times of onslaught we tend to praise less but it’s praise that ensures the victory! Also when our gates are down we are susceptible to the enemy moving in our land and homes.

CHANGING OUR STANCE MOVING FORWARD // GETTING THE HIGH GROUND

Lastly, let’s shake this off. These attacks are a violation and should never be endured or tolerated. God is stirring up that justice in us to push it back when we sense it. I feel as though in this hour that God is asking us to take a different stance than we have before. He is arming us to not be as taken out by these attacks. I believe we are entering a time where the church will laugh at these feeble attempts to take us off course. We are coming up higher and understanding our authority more and more.

Also, this just screams one massive huge announcement- you and I are a threat. The church may look messy right now but we are a threat even when we look like a hot mess. The truth is we are only getting started and these are just the signs that we just stepped on new ground and birthing has begun.

Lord, I pray for every person reading this who has been facing these tactics of the enemy. We partner with you now Lord to place a restraining order on the enemy in every area he has been assaulting them and causing them harm. We bind you, strongman, in Jesus' name, and you are bound! We are taking ground and we will not be stopped. Lord we ask for recompense for time lost, finances lost, joy lost, peace lost, and everything else that was had been lost in the crossfires of this time in Jesus' name. Witchcraft and demonic interference we disarm you now, surveilling spirits, familiar spirits, and tormenting spirits we bind you now, blind you, and send you into utter darkness now in the name of Jesus. Attacks on the home must stop and doors to the enemy we close. We forgive those who have partnered with the enemy because we know we don’t wrestle flesh and blood and we keep in mind who the real enemy is. Lord we Thank you that your presence surrounds us and your angels are commissioned about us and that greater are you that is in us than he that is in the world! We cover our families in the blood of Jesus today and we remind the enemy that in the courts of heaven he has no claim on us in Jesus' name!

A KINGDOM HUB IS RISING IN ORANGE COUNTY!

By Nate Johnston • May 13, 2025

What if Orange County became a sending ground for revival? That's what we believe God is building and we want to invite you into it. We're establishing an apostolic hub in Orange County. Not a church service. Not a ministry brand. But a KINGDOM GREENHOUSE designed to train, heal, equip, and send. Think of it like an air traffic control tower: helping people hear clearly from God, align with their assignments, and land on the right runways, churches, cities, ministries, nations. This is for the leaders, intercessors, creatives, and reformers who are asking, “Where do I fit in this new move of God?” We're building on Ephesians 4:11–13 , apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, and teachers working together to equip the saints for ministry and maturity. What's Next? We're preparing to launch the foundation of this hub by: • Rallying the hungry • Equipping the Church • Calling out reformers • And inviting pioneers to build with us But we can't do this alone… WE'RE ASKING FOR TWO THINGS AS WE TAKE THIS BOLD STEP: 1. Prayer – for protection, provision, and clarity. 2. Financial Partnership – one-time or monthly partnerships, every seed helps us build. Would you pray about joining us either in intercession, generosity, or both? Click below to read more and give! Thank you for linking arms with us as we contend for a new wineskin in this hour. With hearts burning, Nate + Christy

A MESSAGE TO THE ROGUE BUILDERS

By Nate Johnston • May 13, 2025

I’ve had this dream more times than I can count where I’m holding a hammer and I hear the Lord say “What will you do with what I’ve given you?” It echoes the parable of the talents. I know the guilt of burying what God gave me out of fear, out of a desire not to rock the boat. But for me right now? I can’t bury it anymore. And I know I’m not alone. I see others - seed carriers with pockets full of heaven’s plans, who can feel the fire of God stirring them to finally come out of hiding and build what He gave them long ago. But it’s been a journey to get here right? Because the enemy saw what you carried long before you even knew it so he tried to discredit you, silence you, shame you and wound you. You were called heretic, rebel, false prophet, and disruptor of the peace. And maybe that last one is true. But here’s the burning message on my heart to you rogue builders... To the ones who’ve been off the grid, outside the system, who have felt misplaced and displaced - you’re not lost, you’ve been on assignment. You have been pregnant waiting for the moment. And l believe for many that moment has finally come but it’s a strange and uncomfortable tension. I feel this tension even in myself. That feeling of not wanting to step on toes, of not wanting to rock the boat. But let’s be honest, you were never meant to go with the flow. God led you into the wilderness because you’re not called to walk the road everyone else walks. The anointing on your life is not activated in comfort. It activates in disruption. You need to swing that hammer to see your calling come to life. But you have been hesitant because of what you have been through. You are called to disturb what is stagnant, to confront systems that stifle, and to release what heaven is building. That’s where your oil flows. Not in compromise, not in trying to appease the structures you were never meant to serve or come under. This doesn’t give you permission to be arrogant or critical. You’re not building against anyone. You’re building for the King. Like David dancing before the ark, undignified, misunderstood, but in a state of deep worship, you carry this call in that same way. Its worship. And yes, some people will misunderstand your motives. That’s the cost of carrying something holy and different. But it’s no longer a time to hesitate or wait. It’s a “strike while the iron is hot” moment. And even as I am writing this I am seeing a scene from Lord of the Rings where the rogue king Aragorn has the sword of his ancestors restored that was broken in pieces from battle. Maybe that represents you and what you have been through or your mission. You have felt the hammer on the inside of you and you have walked through the fire but not God is restoring you to your post in a pivotal hour of history. You see, we are shifting from an institutional model to a harvest age. The Lord is asking, “Who will build it? ” It’s 2 Kings 6 all over again where the sons of prophets realized, “This place is too small.” And they began to build but in the middle of construction, the axe head fell in the Jordan. One of the building prophets yelled out “Oh no, that axe head was borrowed! Then Elisha threw in a stick, and the iron floated to the surface. And there’s a prophetic message in this passage for us right now. The axehead represents the apostolic office and regional authority. The Church has lost its edge, relying on old models, and borrowed tools. There is a rising cry to recover true supernatural authority and power and you are called to bring it back. The Jordan represents massive change and baptism into a new era. Old systems, though not evil, are insufficient for the harvest ahead. The time for murky waters and mixture is over. The building of the bigger house represents movement in expansion but not in the way we expect. We have to build for the harvest but this means looking beyond a building and building into homes, cities, nations. It’s building beyond the current blueprint and limited infrastructure that unleashes the church into full occupation as the ecclesia. We are in a moment where it’s uncomfortable because we are leaving maintenance behind and embracing mission. This isn’t rebellion, it’s return. It’s not pride, it’s prophetic alignment with the original vision. We’re stepping back into the apostolic mission of Acts, where apostles and prophets set the foundation, and the whole body is activated to move, grow, and expand. So let me keep stirring you for a moment. Think of Nehemiah overcome by grief for the ruins, but driven by the call to rebuild. What if he had listened to Sanballat and Tobiah? What if he laid down his hammer out of fear of man? We’re at the same crossroads. This is not us vs. them, it’s us FOR them. We are leaving behind a shepherd-only model and stepping into a fivefold framework. This is where cities are won, regions are reclaimed, and the local church actually thrives because apostolic centers rise and the saints are sent. And this is what I keep seeing in the Spirit, wildfires igniting across a map. Not chaos but commissioning. Not destruction but awakening. Apostolic hubs of true power, Kingdom authority, cultural shift, deep belonging, and the rise of the firebrands. In the next five years, God is recommissioning the decommissioned rogue ones, the factionless, the wanderers and calling them to pick up their hammer and build. To set fire to the beacons. To call in the hungry. To prepare places for the harvest. It’s like Joseph who saw in a dream what was coming and PREPARED for it by building goshen. What if this was a similar moment? What if this alarm we feel is the Lord saying “PREPARE, BUILD, PIVOT!” Not out of fear but out of a strategic zeal to get the church in order, ready for the return of Jesus and our most glorious days seeing the greatest outpouring of the Holy Spirit? Yes we need to build! The reason many feel unrest is because we have a LONGING in us for what the church will be and what she is becoming but we haven’t seen it modelled yet! Until you step into your shoes and swing your hammer. Because we need the messy hospitals where the lost and broken come. We need the places where the glory comes and there is no ceiling on it. And in order for that to happen, we need our ducks out of a row for a season. We need our systems ruined so we need HIM again! But rogue builders, you may be misunderstood. What you’re building may look different, offend traditions, and challenge norms but it’s not yours - it’s Gods. You are just the carrier. So, today I believe He wanted me to write this to you as a way to shake off the dust and intimidation...He is calling you to dream with Him again. It’s time to step into the mantle and office. It’s time to stop hiding, running, and waiting for the conditions to be perfect. Oh and it’s time to stop apologizing. Pick. Up. Your. Hammer. There I said it. Yes, the hammer breaks, but it also builds. It restores, it heals, it forges foundations. That’s your call. That’s your assignment. That’s your mission. You were never rogue, you were set apart. So no more casting your pearls to be trampled. No more forfeiting your mandate. Do you keep reaching the moment of birthing and handing your baby to someone else? Do you silence your vision for fear of being seen as “too much”? Are you shrinking back because what you carry doesn’t look like the norm? You are carrying something sacred. And the enemy has been trying to convince you that it’s a pipe dream. That you’re rogue, uncovered, and a heretic? Because the Father says that you are highly favored, and even now you are breaking hard ground. So stay focused. Keep plowing by faith and don’t be bullied. This is the moment where OBEDIENCE meets DISCERNMENT meets BOLDNESS and PUSHHHH. It’s time to bring it forth In Jesus’ name. “You see the trouble we are in, how Jerusalem lies in ruins with its gates burned. Come, let us build the wall of Jerusalem… And they said, ‘Let us rise up and build.’ So they strengthened their hands for the good work.” — Nehemiah 2:17-18 “Together, we are his house, built on the foundation of the apostles and the prophets. And the cornerstone is Christ Jesus himself.” — Ephesians 2:20 “Alas, my master! It was borrowed.” Then the man of God said, “Where did it fall?” … Then he made the iron float. And he said, “Take it up.” So he reached out his hand and took it.” — 2 Kings 6:5-7

A MESSAGE TO THE ROGUE BUILDERS

WHEN YOU FEEL LIKE YOUR HAIR WAS CUT

By Nate Johnston • May 12, 2025

Ministry betrayal hurts. Church fatigue is real.. I was praying recently when I kept seeing the image of Samson with his head shaved. I know this often represents those who in a previous season who felt like they lost their strength, but what I felt so strongly in my spirit is that this went even deeper - this was about church and ministry fatigue. For those who have been involved in church life or serving in some way, the enemy used what was closest to you to take you out. The things you poured your heart into, the things you were deeply invested in became the very tools used to wound you and wear you down. This is especially true for those who have experienced spiritual abuse. I know this pain is incredibly painful and can feel difficult to come back from. But I also feel this - the enemy has come hard after those whom God wants to use powerfully in this next season. Because if the enemy can disillusion you, if he can cause you to associate ministry and kingdom work with burnout and betrayal, then he can keep you sidelined. He’ll make you hesitant to ever step into that space again and if that happens, the call of God on your life remains unfulfilled. The same goes for those battling ministry fatigue. I know many people right now who feel deep anxiety at even the thought of ministry. The memories of being pulled in every direction, emotionally drained, abused, and left shipwrecked have left a bitter taste. It’s not just that people came against you, they betrayed you, tore you down, and then disappeared when everything fell apart. Or maybe things didn’t turn out how you envisioned, and you were left disillusioned. Some of you have been walking like Samson with your hair cut for so long that you don’t remember what it’s like to move in power, authority, confidence, and anointing anymore. You woke up like Samson, to find your hair gone and your strength vanished. In a moment, he went from powerful and fearless to weakened and humiliated, like a lion whose mane had been shorn. It’s not just strength that leaves it’s the shame and regret that follow close behind. And that’s how you have felt.. But I feel led to pray that life would come back into your bones this week. That a fresh wind would stir in your spirit. For many, revelation has dried up. Vision is gone. Passion gone. Life feels flat because you gave everything, and it cost you deeply in your family, your peace, your health, your marriage, your children. I get it. It’s been deeply painful. But hear me out - there is another chapter beyond this and there is a fresh wind coming! So this week, I want to start by praying for you. For those who’ve come out of a season of ministry burnout, spiritual abuse, or deep disappointment. For those walking in shame, questioning everything: “God, did I not hear You right?” “Did I trust the wrong people?” “Why am I now depleted in health, finances, and confidence?” I believe the Lord wants me to prophesy over you - GET UP AND WALK! DRY BONES COME ALIVE IN JESUS NAME! You may have heard this before, but I want prophesy it again until something breaks in the spirit. GET UP AND WALK! DRY BONES COME ALIVE IN JESUS NAME! GET UP AND WALK! DRY BONES COME ALIVE IN JESUS NAME! GET UP AND WALK! DRY BONES COME ALIVE IN JESUS NAME! Sit and receive that from the Lord. Let his healing balm penetrate your heart right now. I also pray for the muzzle to come off, for fear and anxiety to be removed. For witchcraft and chatter to stop swirling, for confusion to be lifted and for STRENGTH to return in Jesus name. It’s time to step back into the fullness of your calling and RECOVER ALL! I know what it’s like to hide under the covers after ministry hurt. I know what it’s like to feel disillusioned with the church. But just because you went through that season doesn’t mean God can’t use you again and it doesn’t mean he can’t turn it around. So as we begin this week, we are also praying for those who’ve received bad reports, for those who’ve lost hope, for those who are sick in their bodies or tormented in their minds, and for those facing impossible circumstances. Jesus is still the answer. But today, in Jesus’ name, I say it again - GET UP AND WALK! Leave your sickbed behind. Receive your fresh wind. Receive your fresh anointing. And I prophesy - Everything that was stolen or cut off will grow back, in Jesus’ name!

PIONEERS, GOD SHOWED ME THE FRUIT OF YOUR YES

By Nate Johnston • May 8, 2025

I have a word for the pioneers today... Just a few days ago, I was walking around the house praying when I saw a vision of an apple tree. It was being shaken violently. And although it was full of apples, they weren’t falling off. I thought, Hmm, that’s interesting, the fruit isn’t falling. Then, I felt prompted to speak and prophesy: It’s time for the fruit to come. It’s time for the fruit to come. We’ve had enough delay. We’ve had enough confusion. It’s time for the fruit to come. As soon as I said that, I saw the vision again and this time, apples were flying everywhere. They covered the ground until you couldn’t even see the grass. I kept walking around the house, praying into this, and I knew it was the Lord speaking about pioneers, those who had walked through seasons where it felt like they hadn’t seen the fruit of their yes to the Lord. They hadn’t seen the fruition of what they sowed. But I sensed the Lord saying: You haven’t seen the next chapter yet. You haven’t seen what I’m doing next. And I truly believe this is a massive prophetic indicator for this season. Many have even been afraid to step into new assignments from the Lord because it feels like, God, how can I step into something new when I haven’t even seen the fruit of the last season? But the Lord is saying: Stop measuring a season by its fruit. As a pioneer and forerunner, sometimes you don’t see the fruit until later chapters. Your faithfulness to say yes, to do what He told you to do, that was enough. But now, you’ve stepped into a new chapter. You’ve got to release the old season. Surrender it to the Lord so you can step into what He’s pouring out now. Grab it with both hands. I believe this vision is also a powerful sign for this moment in history. There’s shaking all around us, and many are afraid of it. But don’t fear the shaking because it’s revealing the fruit. Then I went into a second vision. I saw large storehouses almost like warehouses lining both sides of a freeway. They were being filled, overflowing. I knew I was seeing the fruit, the fulfillment, the fruition of years of prayer, obedience, and contending. I could see the expressions on people’s faces “I can’t believe it. I never thought I would see this day come.” But it has come. And I believe this is what the Lord is declaring: You are going to see the fruit of it. It reminded me of Zerubbabel - the one God gave the signet ring (Haggai 2:23), the one who led the people out of exile and laid the foundation of the temple and also lived to see the capstone placed (Zechariah 4:9). He didn’t just begin the work. He saw it finished. As pioneers, we often feel like we labor and others walk into the fruit. But I believe the Lord is saying: In this season, you’re going to see it. You will see what you gave your yes to. Now let me speak into the shaking for a moment because I felt it was significant that I saw the tree being shaken violently. The tree was being shaken so the fruit could come. Think about that for a moment. You don’t have to fear the shaking when you know that the glory comes with it. And right now, many people are in fear in this shaking because their focus is on the wrong thing. The shaking isn’t here to ruin you, but to dismantle demonic principalities and systems that have oppressed you for a long time. The shaking is here to shake the earth back into order and alignment with the Kingdom and take back ground. The shaking is here to ready the church for harvest. It’s not punishment for us, it’s actually the sign that FRUIT IS INCOMING! And the shaking is right now producing what you’ve been praying for. The shaking is bringing you into breakthrough because you’ve already been through the breaking. This shift that’s happening right now is not a shift into doom and gloom. It’s a shift into bloom and increase. It’s a shift that’s taking you into the ripening, personally and corporately, because you’ve already been through the pruning. You’ve been through the fire, through the adversity, through the dark night of the soul where you wanted to give up, and where everything was stacked against you. So now it’s time for the glory to be revealed because you held on to Jesus through the battle. And God’s about to reveal His faithfulness because you were faithful. He’s about to reveal His goodness in your life because you chose to believe He was good, even when others walked away. You hit your knees when others turned back to Egypt. So today pioneers, look through the right lens. Get back your faith eyes. Shake off the doubt. Shake off the fear. And choose to see not through the eyes of foreboding, fear, delay, and hope deferred but through the eyes of hope again. “I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us” Romans 8:18 FRUIT IS COMING!
