AN URGENT CALL FOR THE GATEKEEPERS TO AWAKEN.

There is a war on the gates of America right now, and that war is manifesting in the natural because of what is happening in the supernatural. I believe the current political war that we are seeing play out at the border is a mirror of this underlying spiritual war. I have been sensing a strong and undeniable urgency in recent days, like an ongoing alarm from the Spirit of God that the Gatekeepers must awaken. The prophetic intercessors must arise and take their place in this hour. I keep hearing the Holy Spirit’s urgent impression to my heart, “There is a fierce battle waging at the gates of America, and the United States is in urgent need of INCREASED and INTENTIONAL intercession right now.”


I believe the enemy’s war on the gates of America is to gain unrestricted access to influence the world. I saw a vision of a monumental war at the spiritual gateway of America and it looked like the Golden Gate Bridge. Standing on one side of the bridge was an assault of demonic principalities, screaming and beating their chests in an attempt to scare their way into unrestricted access across the gates barricades. On the other side of the bridge was an army of angels, assigned by heaven to stand guard and prevent this assault from crossing.

 

The angels were standing alongside gatekeepers (intercessors) and were awaiting their commands and instruction. However, while there were many of these gatekeepers who were awake, many were also asleep. As the vision progressed, the assault on the other side of the bridge became more violent and agitated, and while the armed guard of angels were able to keep them at bay, I noticed they were not as effective as warring them off as they could have been had their sleeping gatekeepers been on guard and awake. It was as though they were helpless to be completely effective until every gatekeeper was awake. I believe the Lord showed me that vision to issue an urgent call to the church, and specifically to the gatekeepers and those called to intercede for America, that it is time to AWAKEN from slumber and MOVE in the authority given to you against this demonic onslaught.

LIFTING THE FATIGUE

Last month I was asking the Lord to reveal the source of a myriad of witchcraft attacks that we had been enduring all year. I was tired and worn out after constantly finding our daily lives interrupted with swirling confusion, frustration and strange and odd circumstances. The Holy Spirit then led me to this scripture:

 

“For he has strengthened the authority of your gates. He even blesses you with more children. He’s the one who brings peace to your borders, feeding you the most excellent of fare.” Psalm 147:13-14

 

Within a matter of days, the enemies sly and crafty plans behind all of the attacks were revealed and we were able to see a swift end to this relentless warfare. As the dust settled, I was able to clearly see that the confusion that had been surrounding us had caused me to ‘sleep’ in many ways through warfare. It was a demonic strategy to exhaust me into a deep slumber. In fact, even my physical sleep had been affected. I was unable to sleep properly at night, and therefore I was physically tired and weary during the day. I believe that many of those who are called to the frontlines of intercession, those who have been given the keys of a Nation as a gatekeeper, have been enduring this same onslaught of warfare… surrounded by a myriad of confusion, you have found yourself tired, exhausted and asleep on the battlefield. I prophesy an end to these attacks in the name of Jesus. I decree that every sly and crafty assignment that has been sent your way to lull you into a slumber will be swiftly brought to an end. Where God promised me, He is promising you, that He is strengthening the authority of your gates, and out of this onslaught of battles that you have been enduring, you will see an increase in multiplication and fruition in your life. Not only will your life prosper, But He will also cause your intercession to prosper.


I believe I also need to prophesy this scripture over you, and I feel you need to also SHOUT it out loud over yourself, like a clarion awakening call.

 

“For the light makes everything visible. This is why it is said, “Awake, O sleeper, rise up from the dead, and Christ will give you light.”

Ephesians 5:14

 

I decree that the shining light of the Son will shine upon you and every darkness that has tried to surround you will dissipate in His brightness. Even as you read this, I believe you will feel a supernatural strengthening to awaken you and cause you to stand once again with renewed strength and CLARITY. It is time to take up your shield again, and I command an end to the onslaughts you have endured in Jesus name. The enemy is powerless to withstand you, for you are needed on the frontlines.

TAKING BACK THE ENEMY LINES

I kept hearing this phrase, ‘lines of contention’. Intrigued by that statement, I did a search online trying to see if there was any biblical connection to this phrase. Instead, I found a prophetic language for what is happening. The first thing that comes up is in respect to broadband contention ratios. Basically speaking, a ‘contention ratio’ is in reference to how many users are sharing the same broadband capacity on a line. To explain it even more simply, it is the count of how many households are using the same main broadband line. If a line of contention ratio is 20:1, it means twenty households are using the same broadband line.

Immediately I knew what the Holy Spirit was speaking through this. Currently, there is a contention in the spirit for the contention lines. The enemy is attempting to advance in ratio and outweigh what God is doing in America and the Nations, however, God is calling the gatekeepers to be the higher ratio. I believe at this very moment in time, however, there is an imbalance. With many gatekeepers who have been asleep, the enemy’s ratios are threatening to outweigh our own. Yet, as the gatekeepers respond to the clarion call, awakening and arising together using the same ‘lines’ of authority, they will together advance and take back the enemy lines in a swift show of God’s authority and power. It is IMPERATIVE that the gatekeepers ARISE.

On the first day of this year, I heard this statement resound loudly in my spirit: “The Goliath of abortion is losing its footing.” I believe that the long-withstanding strongholds like abortion, political correctness and even racism in the Nation of America are actually losing their footing. These giants who have held the lines of contention over the Nation for many years are losing ground. Make no mistake, the current spiritual war on the gates of America is because the enemy is in a frenzy to take back lost ground. He is losing his footing. The gate-keepers must maintain their authority on the frontlines, and as they do, we will see these strongholds of giants fall, and SWIFTLY.

YOU HOLD THE KEYS.

Take up your position, for God is strengthening the authority of your gates. He is strengthening the gates of America THROUGH you. The gates of hell shall not prevail against the armies of the Lord, and together, we decree and declare that Satan shall not possess your gates, your families gates, your cities gates, the gates of America and your own nation, nor shall he possess the land.

 

I am here to call you back to the frontlines, warrior friends. The enemy fears what you carry, he fears the authority you walk in, but the Lord’s promise to you today as you step back up on the wall as a watchman is to bring peace to your borders, feeding you the most excellent of His fare. Let’s together see this battle won for the glory of God.

 

Blessed is the man who listens to me, watching daily at My GATES, watching at the posts of my door. For whoever finds me finds life, and obtains favor from the Lord – Proverbs 8:34-35

Prayer keys:

1. Pray for the protection of President Trump and Vice President Pence. (Psalm 91, Psalm 144, Isaiah 45:1-3)

2. Pray for the gates of America to be SHUT to the enemy and his plans as God strengthens what His plans for this Nation and the Nations of the world through her. (Matthew 16:18-19)

3. Pray for God’s mercy and justice to prevail over the land. (Psalm 68:1)

 

I’d love to hear, what promises God has given you to pray over the nation of America in this hour? Share it for us to agree with you below.

FOR THOSE WHO HAVE BATTLED & SURVIVED JEZEBEL

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

IT'S TURNING AROUND!

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

But as you shift out of that, It will cause the fruit of your renewed mind to be that you see the kingdom of heaven invade your world, your lifestyle and you’ll see things shift around in a short period of time.” So give me your heart and mind and I’ll turn around the things around you that have tried to do in your strength and failed, and silence the storm” 

WHEN THE OLD WINE RUNS OUT..

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