FOR THOSE BUILDING THE NEW

FOR THOSE BUILDING THE NEW

FOR THOSE BUILDING THE NEW

I have a word for those who have been hiding on the fringe for a long time.


You’ve been the faction-less, those who haven’t quite fit the current church structure, methodology, and culture simply because you’re carrying something different.


You’ve been in a process where the Lord has been encouraging you to step out and be a voice, but you’ve known there’s a timing to it.


You’ve been tenderly waiting for the Lord to release you and give you the green light.


You’ve been patient, not rushing or pushing down doors.


Over the past four years, the Lord has been adding layer upon layer to the building blueprints inside of you.


You’ve been asking, Lord, when will I get to begin stepping into this?


This year has been marked by war against your confidence.


There’s been questioning, feelings of missing your moment, and a sense that maybe you’ve failed to step in at the right time or that the vision is dead in the water.


But it’s not dead in the water.


You’re about to step into the fruition of what God has placed within you.


You’re moving out of the theoretical and into the practical, actively beginning to build what God has called you to.


Let me say this humbly: it’s not that you’re replacing what God has done; you’re adding an extension to the pure house.


God has been judging and revealing the impurity of the old house, which has come to rubble and ruin.


This is where you step in, for God has called you His remnant, His prophetic remnant that has not bowed or kissed the lips of Baal.


You’ve been set apart for a purpose, a reason, and a season.


Now it’s time to build.


The Lord has been pulling you out of the shadows, challenging you to begin establishing a new company and a new people.


You’ve been looking for people, but the Lord says, Instead of looking, you will build them. You will be the family. You will father and mother a people in need of this new move.


We are leaving the days of the prophetic house as a celebrity house.


The Lord is leading the Church out of the celebrity focus and into a season where the prophetic company is nameless and faceless.


God is calling the whole Church into its prophetic destiny, where the entire Body will hear Him as if for the first time.


The Church is stepping into its ability to engage with the heavenlies and release Heaven into the earth. It won’t be a select few anymore. But a pure bride with a collective voice. 


And I hear the Lord saying to those building the new: it is time to begin focusing on what lies ahead and ignoring the noise of critics slandering you to prevent you from building.


Over the next six months, it will feel as though critics are emerging from everywhere to discourage you from laying the first few bricks of the new thing you’ve been dreaming of and processing with the Lord for the past seven to 14 years.


That’s right, this has been in your spirit for 7 to 14 years.


The last four years, you’ve endured the Nehemiah 4 opposition phase, where it felt like an all-out war to prevent you from birthing what God placed in your heart.


But now there is a grace coming upon you to gather the clay, form the first brick, clear the floor, lay the foundation, and set it down.


This is a moment of grace and favor in what appears to be the wrong time.


Yet the Lord says, This is not the wrong time; it is the opportune time. It is the right time to lay it down.


Just as Zerubbabel was given the authority to lay the cornerstone, the Lord is giving you His signet ring—His authority, favor, and anointing—to lay the foundation for the new move of God, without spot, wrinkle, or compromise.


There will be shouts from the sidelines, storms trying to pull you in, and noise seeking to distract you.


But the Lord says, This is a moment I want you to go low and build. I want you to focus only on My face and nothing else. Push through the noise and begin to establish what I am giving you. This is the mission I’ve placed in your hands, and there is an anointing upon you to press through what looks like an impossible feat.


I will provide the clarity, the provision, and the people you need.


But heed this warning: Know your lane, know what I’ve given you to do, and know your tools. Do not engage in anything outside of what I’ve placed in your hands.


Just as the prophets came to Elisha and said, “This place is too small,” and they began to build, they lost the axe head because it was borrowed.


This is a time of great humility as you build.


It is a time to go down to the Jordan—the place of the flow and refueling.


You must build in the Spirit, not in the flesh, lest you repeat the mistakes of the past.


Step into the new flow of the Spirit, for the waters are rising, and the Lord is looking for those who will prepare the Body of Christ for the great harvest.


In this hour, the Lord is raising up crossover prophets and crossover apostles to lead the Church into the new day, out of the rubble.


The next six months will reveal much rubble, but God is raising up specialists who will know how to fashion it, create with it, and use it for the new thing He is building.


The best days are yet to come.

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

Movements are being birthed all across the nations, ministries that are pure in heart and motive, are about to take flight!

See you there! —NATE

Too many God-breathed messages never make it to the page. Not because they aren’t powerful, but because the writer feels unworthy or fears it will be too much for people to handle. Sound familiar? Fear of rejection. Impostor syndrome. Shrinking your voice to fit the mold. These are the lies that have kept prophetic messengers silent for far too long. But not anymore. On May 5, we begin Masterclass 2: Messages on Fire. We’re going after the root of fear and disqualification, so you can finally write the message you were born to release with fire, clarity, and holy boldness. This isn’t just a class. It’s a permission slip to burn. Your voice matters. Your message carries weight. Let’s unlock it.

If you’ve ever felt like your message is too intense, too prophetic, too outside the box— you’re probably carrying something heaven-breathed. But somewhere along the way, the fear crept in: “What if they misunderstand me?” “What if I’m not qualified to say this?” “Who am I to write like this?” Let’s get something clear: You were never meant to write a safe message. You were meant to write a holy disruption. Join us May 5 for MESSAGES ON FIRE, a 4-week masterclass where we expose fear, confront imposter syndrome, and ignite the message that’s been burning inside you for years. You don’t need more approval. You need permission to go full fire. It’s time to write it. Unfiltered. Un-compromised. Unapologetically you.
