Jodie Hughes

This is a profound and powerful word and dream from our friend Jodie. What stands out to me is the shifting of the battle, the urgency of our decrees and the significant window of time that we are currently standing in. I encourage you to take the time to read this dream, if you haven't yet, and align your heart with what God is speaking over this pivotal moment in time. Also, notice the original release date of this word reflects John 10:10.

NOW is a “due time” to not give up in the battle surrounding abortion, but instead advance in confidence.decreeing life.

“The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.” John 10:10

“Let us not lose heart in doing good, for in due time we will reap if we do not grow weary.” Gal 6:9

I recently had a heart-piercing prophetic dream in which I heard the cry for urgent, persistent prayer for life. In this season it is crucially important to not stop praying and to not back down. The courts of Earth WILL hear the cry for justice from the courts from Heaven. There is a specific grace being released that is key for prayer and advancing forward in this season. This grace will bring influence and new attention from the media, attract many that have previously not openly stood for life, raise up a new breed of prayer warriors and movements, spark fresh grace over fostering and adoption and alternatives to abortion, open the ears of the courts of earth and impact law, and transform the face of activism. As we ensure that our words, actions and prayers are bathed in this grace and love, and not from anger, previously deafened ears will hear the cry for life. Now is a time to keep standing, keep believing and keep praying as there’s a grace and momentum for major breakthroughs and reform. As we rightly celebrate wins, we must keep striking the ground in prayer until we see complete victory. Justice is being decreed from the courts of heaven. Charge ahead in boldness and confidence, not backing down.

I was acutely aware in this dream that all that I saw take place, was because of those who sacrificially and faithfully have gone before us. Every person who has stood for life is to be honoured.

“If I have seen farther than others, it is because I was standing on the shoulder of giants” Isaac Newton

THE DREAM

In the dream I saw entire families, men, women and children marching around a court. Each person was worshipping, praying and decreeing as they walked together. I could hear the crying of children very clearly and loudly. The cry was continual, intense and demanded urgent attention. The crying out was getting louder in my dream and was impossible to ignore. There was a multitude of crying and the sound was unbearable to any compassionate heart.

The cry I heard was specifically from the unwanted children on earth. I was acutely aware this was a cry for justice of the multitudes of children now in heaven who had been aborted. This cry was heart piercing.

As in any dream, there is prophetic symbolism and I knew that I was observing a children’s home which represented heaven, and was full of love, peace and protection. These children were completely loved and completely secure in that love. They were now living in eternity and experienced no pain, no regret, no bitterness and no discomfort. They were completely fulfilled and completely at peace in the joy and security of God’s love for them. It stood out to me and is exceptionally important to note, there was no malice, bitterness or hatred toward their parents on earth. Only love. Only grace. Only tenderness. These aborted children LOVED their parents and desired for them to know that as they emulated their Heavenly Father. They, in fact, joined the Father in desiring the fullness of their parent's destiny. The unwanted on earth were not unwanted in heaven. They were very much embraced and lived in the magnificence of eternities family, where they neither missed out or felt without in any way which profoundly affected me.

However, they each knew that their voice still had power. Their cry of pure love and grace still resounded from heaven calling for life on the earth. As part of the great crowd of witnesses, their voice still echoed today. Their short lives released a powerful cry for justice that the Father had heard.

The cry in my dream I heard did not come from pain. The cry was birthed from a collective call for an army to arise on earth in one voice decreeing LIFE. The cry I was hearing came from the courts of heaven trumpeting in a groundswell of warriors in the nations. Their cry announced the beginning of the end to a season where the stronghold of abortion had the upper hand and they announced the day where abortion lost its grip. Their cry could no longer be ignored on the earth, and it demanded ears to be opened and hearts be moved.

The cry of the unwanted was incredibly marked by grace. It demanded urgent attention and yet it equally carried a tangible grace which profoundly affected me. This grace was a mantle of due justice being released that propelled the life movement into accelerated favour. The longer I listened, the more their cry escalated in intensity.

Once again I was drawn to those marching around the court. Their worship and prayer was anointed with breakthrough and powerful. It was specifically directed toward releasing Heavens’ decree of justice for those aborted, but also those still to be born.

The crying was unrelenting, intense, and loud, and it could not be easily ignored yet I noticed in the dream, that many had drowned it out and had incredulously become deaf to the cry. There were many reasons for this, but regardless of the reason, I saw grace opening previously deaf ears. Their cry WOULD BE HEARD.

DUE TIME FOR JUSTICE

Those who marched around the court could hear the intensity and urgency and their response was to worship, pray and keep decreeing. Their ears were attuned to the cry for LIFE and they couldn’t ignore what they heard. There was a knowing “this is the appointed time.” To not give up but instead advance in confidence. There was much noise trying to drown out the cry for justice but these ones knew it was only the noise breaking through resistance and refused to be distracted. I understood that the cry I heard was an urgent call to prayer urging the body to decree life, and announcing a due time for justice.

BREAKTHROUGH PROPHETIC WORSHIP IS KEY

Breakthrough prophetic worship was key to seeing these walls come down in the courts of the earth. As I observed those marching, their worship specifically carried joy and confidence. I wondered how they could decree with such grace and joy until again I heard the unrelenting cry of the unwanted on earth and my ears were acutely aware of the sound of grace that didn’t just accompany their voice, but was intrinsically a part of their cry. Their cry comes from another realm where God’s will is always carried out perfectly and in perfect love. They have no fear. They have no doubt. Earth will hear their call for life. Father God was raising up a multitude upon multitude of warriors marked by the cry for life.

WE MUST PICK UP THE CALL FOR LIFE

I watched an entire family march together, singing, praying, holding hands whilst decreeing life. It was profoundly beautiful and compelling. Their faces were fierce but not angry. Their eyes carried grace and a holy fire! They were marked by unrelenting courage and determination. As they marched and prayed, they picked up unwanted children and placed them on their shoulders. I understood that this was an invitation from Heaven to those who have stood back, to boldly pick up the cause of the cry for life. I saw even children picking up this call for life and powerfully shifting the atmosphere. The cry for life was a mountain that MUST be levelled now. Future lives depend upon it. This cry must not be ignored but picked up and carried until we see the mountain levelled.

AND THE GOVERNMENT SHALL BE UPON HIS SHOULDER

I am reminded of Isaiah 9:6, “And the Government shall be upon His shoulder.”

I watched as crying children were picked up by many and placed on their shoulders which I understood was God decreeing justice in the courts of heaven that WILL impact the courts of the earth as we pick up and carry the call to decree justice and life. We are the head and not the tail and our decree carries the full authority of the King. Governments and high offices of influence will hear the cry for justice AS WE DECREE, WORSHIP and boldly ignore the taunts of Goliath.

I was aware of the truth that in the natural, the government truly shall be upon HIS shoulder. There is no office on earth that is higher than His office as King. The Government of Heaven and the decrees of the King supersede the government of Earth every time. I was aware of the urgency of the hour to partner with God’s roar and decree life.

BREAKTHROUGH IS IN THE COURAGEOUS ADVANCING

This is key in this critical hour of marching around strongholds to see the grip of lies broken and life enthroned. I was aware that this was a KEY BATTLE FOR THE BODY. This battle MUST be won. This fight for life was a PIVOTAL BATTLE that dethroned and dismantled significant strongholds. The enemy is determined to not lose this ground. Much of the fear, distractions and demonic attack coming at the body fiercely right now, is designed to blind and keep us from confidently standing in truth and seeing this Goliath destroyed. I was aware that the BREAKTHROUGH WAS IN THE COURAGEOUS ADVANCING FORWARD WITH GRACE.

GRACE WAS KEY AS WITHOUT GRACE MANY OF THE EARS WOULD REMAIN DEAF TO CRY FOR JUSTICE, AND MANY OF THE MOST EFFECTUAL WARRIORS WOULD REMAIN ON THE SIDELINES BECAUSE OF SHAME. GRACE IS THE GAME CHANGER. GRACE IS THE SECRET WEAPON.

GRACE IS A GAME CHANGER

GRACE was the game changer that is being released from heaven. The war against life is one of the greatest battles of our time. THIS BATTLE IS BIGGER THAN ABORTION as the ramifications will affect generations to come. It’s a showdown between light and dark, life and death and every mountain of influence will be affected by the outcome. Future looming giants that will have an impact on the unprecedented last days' harvest will be slain by these giant slayers arising now. The cry from heaven is to recognise the window open NOW for advancing forward in unity must be acted upon.

GOD IS RAISING UP WOMAN CHAMPIONS OF JUSTICE

Back to the dream, my attention was now drawn to a beautiful, worshipping Mother. This warrior picked up a crying, five-year-old girl and put her horizontally across her shoulders. As the girl was five, she was not small and even in the dream, this looked really awkward. I thought there must be an easier way to carry her. This Mum and Warrior then continued to march around the court, decreeing and worshipping all whilst carrying this crying child. I knew she was a mother of many, a mother of a new breed of warrior. God is raising up many powerful women warriors, many of whom from the hidden place, who will boldly champion justice.

I was transfixed by this warrior, and yet still aware of the sound of the unrelenting crying. I watched as she kept worshipping even as she carried the girl and marched, and the beauty, hope and power of this sound were compelling. The sound of hope not only released breakthrough, but was infectious and transferable, and was calling in others.

THERE'S A FRESH GRACE THAT WILL ENABLE WHAT SEEMS DIFFICULT TO BE CARRIED WITH EASE

What this woman was doing initially looked hard and awkward as she carried the girl horizontally on her shoulders. It was costing her something to pick this up, but I saw the determination in her eyes that this was not only worth it, but it MUST BE DONE. The girl looked too big and too heavy to be carried this way. But as I observed her carrying this weight, this woman made it look effortless, fun and beautiful. She made picking up the cry for life look attractive, compelling and desirable. The ease with which she carried the cause released a grace for others to follow. She carried contagiousness that even in my dream made me think, “why isn’t everyone doing this? It’s not that hard! It’s not as difficult as people think! Is victory not before us?” As she prayed, decreed and gracefully carried the cry of the unwanted MANY, yes MANY listened to her voice.

I saw many men, women and children join in marching. The sound of her voice and the sight of her marching with family attracted the attention of the media. The media was captivated by the grace and boldness of her voice. She carried the cause with ease. Joy, hope and grace were heard in the streets and turned the heads of those watching. This sound of the collective hearts cry for justice attracted a fresh look from the media. Her voice was compelling and influential as it carried grace. I knew grace was changing the landscape and would unlock the hearts of those who sat in the courts of earth and offices of influence.

CARRY GRACE

It was then, as only possible in a dream, I realised the 5-year-old girl on her shoulders represented the many aborted. I was suddenly aware HER NAME WAS GRACE.

Grace had a beauty that was beyond this world, and I knew her name was incredibly significant. Her beauty was eternal, powerful and strong. She signified a fresh wave of grace for this battle.

I now understood why carrying Grace is essential to see the laws of the land shift. Grace was crucial. Grace opened the door and compelled ears of the court to hear her voice for justice, as her voice was easily received and disarmed hardened hearts. I took note that Grace was not timid or ineffectual, but compelling and fierce despite being only a child. The love she exuded demolished dark strongholds. The cry for life from heaven only continued to get louder even as I looked at her, and I noticed that many who had previously been deafened to her cry were now hearing it.

Grace rested on the cry for life and every voice who stood for life. Fearless courage and pure heaven-sent fire were being released from heaven. I watched heaven decree a new day of grace for justice where justice has seemed delayed.

Again, I was intently aware there was an urgency in the dream. I understood despite the dark shadows, there is grace to contend for life right NOW. This ripe for justice moment must be exploited.

HEAVENS GRACE RESTS ON THE WARRIORS WHO WILL STAND, SPEAK AND CONTEND

The hour is pregnant with justice. It was a “for such a time as this” moment. Heaven's grace rests on the warriors who will stand, speak and contend. There’s a call to prayer from heaven that is crying out for the future unborn generations SO THAT THEY MAY LIVE.

I could hear the cry’s from heaven of the precious voices of the aborted children joining the cloud of witnesses as they decreed grace on those alive now who will carry their legacy to see abortion’s grip demolished. The cry was intense. The cry marked me and I knew it was marking a generation in numbers not previously seen. Had it not been for the heavenly grace in their cry I could not bear to listen any more. The cry of those lost to abortion had built and intensified over time. It seemed to me in the dream that all heaven anticipated the rising of this generation that would not turn back, and not give up in fighting to complete what others had begun. Life would triumph over death.

KEEP GOING. THE WINDOW OF OPPORTUNITY IS OPEN

It was then I understood, there is grace on the battle for life right now to see the laws change. This grace is releasing a fresh strength and vigour to keep going. This is why there is an urgency for now. Grace is available to those who will hear the cry and pick up the cause in prayer. Now is an urgent window of time to boldly advance. As I listened, the sound of the cry was sounding more like a heartbeat, to march to; a battle cry. It was the heartbeat of Heaven. Something was changing. This battle cry was the call to prayer. This call to prayer was penetrating the wider church and the atmosphere was charged for reformation at a governmental level.

ACCEPTED THINKING OF THE DAY WILL SHIFT

Suddenly in the dream, my eye was drawn to an older man sitting on the steps of the court who I knew represented “the accepted thinking of the day.” His countenance was disinterested, tired and hardened. Even though he sat on the steps of the court his ears were deafened to the constant cry for life going on in front of him. His ears had become deaf to the sound of their cry. I was completely astounded and deeply saddened that the court had not heard the cry for justice as in the dream my ears were unable to ignore the cry. I knew however, this would change.

THE CAUSE OF LIFE WILL CARRY A NEW SOUND

Then I noticed something different arising. A new sound was softening the hardest of hearts and transforming the face of activism and justice movements. (I must add this new face to activism in no way discredits or dishonours voices who have gone before. It’s a new wineskin I saw arising for a new season that owes its harvest to seeds already sown. It’s a new mantle of grace that will add favour to those already championing the cause of life)

HEARTS WILL HEAR THE CRY FOR LIFE

The man sitting on the stairs was visibly being undone by the grace and love these movements were exhibiting in their call for life. His own heart was encountering love which was healing offence and pain of the past. He was encountering grace that disarmed him and opened his ears to hear a new sound. Hope filled me as I realised the man sitting on the steps of the court had begun to hear the cry for life.

At first, it was faint and yet the more he saw that “Grace was on the shoulders” of those who carried the cause, the more he heard. His ears were hearing the cry of the unborn and were moved to see a new era ushered in.

As I looked back at him, I was overcome with grace for him. I became aware that he represented MULTITUDES whose ears had grown deaf for varying reasons but were encountering God’s grace in this season.

GRACE DEFEATS SHAME AND OPENS DOORS

I was again keenly aware GRACE WAS KEY IN THIS SEASON, AS WITHOUT GRACE MANY OF THE EARS IN HIGH PLACES WOULD REMAIN DEAF TO CRY FOR JUSTICE, AND MANY OF THE MOST EFFECTUAL WARRIORS WOULD REMAIN ON THE SIDELINES BECAUSE OF SHAME. GRACE IS THE GAME CHANGER. GRACE IS THE SECRET WEAPON.

A fresh wave of GRACE and weighty glory was the game changer that is being released from heaven. Grace was healing hearts and strengthening voices as much as it was opening ears. A weighty glory was coming to heal brokenness especially surrounding abortion. Advocating life would partner with advocating grace.

LIFE INITIATIVES WILL BE BIRTHED

I looked ahead and saw grace over many initiatives birthed to support life. Adoption, fostering and new initiatives I had no name for arose to support babies being born, and mothers to thrive. A new wave of grace healed the hearts of those who have been through an abortion and destroyed shame. This prompted many to arise as warriors for life, whose voice had previously been stifled by shame and pain. I saw babies, babies, babies and I saw DESTINIES born that re-shaped our nations.

DON’T BE DISCOURAGED BY WHAT LOOKS LIKE CLOSED EARS RIGHT NOW

It was important to not become discouraged by what looked like closed ears right now, as God was lavishing grace on their hearts even now and opening the ears of those who sat in high places. Decree the deaf ears open. Pray for their hearts. Pray the ears of those who sit in the courts of the earth will hear heavens call for life.

SOME OF THE LOUDEST DISTRACTORS WILL BECOME THE LOUDEST ADVOCATES

Some of the loudest voices for abortion will become the greatest of advocates for life. They are but one encounter away from personal transformation.

I see many having dreams, visions and encounters of their aborted children in heaven. This will impact their hearts with such deep grace that will arise as fierce advocates of justice. They will encounter the God of grace and love.

GOD IS SHINING THE SPOTLIGHT ON HEALTHY FAMILY

The spotlight was coming on families who worshipped and prayed together. In the dream, I saw families praying for life together and the spotlight coming on them. Media attention would highlight powerful women who walked in grace and divine authority. The media will show a different face of activism than they’ve shown before, a breed that battles in great wisdom and relevance for this generation. This strength and grace will disarm many hardened hearts and cause a re-thinking of values. The call to persistent worship, intercession and prophetic declaration was opening the ears of those who carried the power to shift laws and community attitudes. I saw a new sound and new prayer movement that transformed activism and attracted a new wave of powerful, grace-filled warriors that were marked by the fire of Elijah to break the stronghold of abortion.

JESUS IS CARRYING THE CRY OF THE UNBORN AND DECREEING JUSTICE

In the dream, I was aware I was in the days to come, and I took another look at those who faithfully carried the call for justice and as I looked I saw Jesus. Jesus looked at his faithful warriors with love and thankfulness. How dearly Jesus loved His faithful warriors for life… not a single effort had gone unnoticed and unrewarded by Him. I could still hear the crying and I was aware so did Jesus… the cry for justice was still ringing out.

I watched Jesus reach down and he picked up one of the crying children and put them on his shoulders. I then realised he was carrying the girl I knew in the dream as Grace on his shoulders. His heart carried them all. I knew Grace represented all those who had been aborted, and I knew Jesus put the cry of unwanted children on His Shoulders right in front of the court. Jesus stood in front of the court and carried the cry for life right in front of the court.

IMMEDIATELY THE CRYING STOPPED IN THE DREAM!!!

The silence only magnified the enormity of the victory. As I watched I wept as I looked at the fierce strength and grace of Jesus.

I began to hear a different sound of laughter and joy. The air felt clear, clean and crisp.

Just as the Government is upon His shoulders, Jesus is carrying this cry for life and decreeing a governmental shift.

GOD IS DECREEING SWIFT AND SUDDEN JUSTICE

I suddenly awoke, but as I was waking I was saying…..“AND THE CRYING STOPPED”

I saw a day of justice swiftly coming upon us. I awoke with a knowing that heaven was calling us to pray for life as the courts of heaven were decreeing a due season of justice.

PRAY PRAY PRAY AND THEN, PRAY
I knew we must keep praying….
The courts will hear the cry for justice that is coming from the courts of heaven

DECREE:

Psalm 8:2
You have built a stronghold by the songs of babies.
Strength rises up with the chorus of singing children.
This kind of praise has the power to shut Satan’s mouth.
Childlike worship will silence the madness of those who oppose you.

Proverbs 21:22
A warrior filled with wisdom ascends into the high place and releases regional breakthrough, bringing down the strongholds of the mighty.

OUR CALL TO PRAYER:
There’s a call to prayer and it carries grace for both the intercessor and all who are involved, but it equally carries a fierce breaker anointing for justice. Keep praying! The stronghold is breaking and the cry of the unborn will be heard. God is decreeing justice from the courts of heaven in the courts of the earth. Carry grace, and charge the gates.

Be very blessed, and infused with His Grace.

BEYOND THIS POINT EXPECT DIFFERENT

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 

A TIME OF DIVISION & DECISION

By Nate Johnston • November 19, 2024
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. 

BEYOND THIS POINT EXPECT DIFFERENT

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 

A TIME OF DIVISION & DECISION
