FOR THOSE IN A GROUND ZERO MOMENT

FOR THOSE IN A GROUND ZERO MOMENT

FOR THOSE IN A GROUND ZERO MOMENT

Recently, the Lord gave me a dream and a word for the nation of Australia, but the more I have shared it since being here, the more I have realized that this word is also a personal word to the body of Christ right now because so many are in this exact process.


The night after we flew into Australia, I had a dream. In the dream, I saw two towers in the middle of the Outback of Australia, towering through the clouds, when suddenly, they came crashing down, one after the other. 


Then, I was taken into another scene. In the place where the towers were, there were people weeping at the site, and then I heard "ground zero." This felt the same as the ground zero site in New York City, and like the physical site, I saw masses gathering around the destruction and weeping and travailing over the fall of these towers.


But then I yelled out, "The days of weeping are over, and the time of mourning has ended!" This is for those who have found themselves in a ground-zero season. A season where it seems as though your life has been leveled to the ground. It is a season where things are falling to the ground around you, and everything you have built has come crashing down. 


Relationships have been ending.


Assignments have come to an end. 


Doors have closed. 


And now you are reeling and not sure how to make sense of what you are experiencing. 


For weeks now, I have felt the depths of pain and anguish and loss many are carrying. I have felt the depths of loss and grief surrounding people. Loss of loved ones. Financial ruin. Bad reports over health. Marriages in crisis. Prodigal children, and death to many destinies and callings.  You are Indeed at a ground zero moment but I feel like I have a booming message in my spirit - you have actually never been more riper than you are now. I have seen that these towers don't represent what you have built being destroyed but the obstacles that have been LOOMING over you! 


This ground zero is not a robbery but your deliverance and a brand new slate! 


THE POISON OF HOPE DEFERRED 


I feel like God is warring against the hope deferred that has had much of the church in a place of soul sickness. We are in a new era, but because of the heartache of unfulfilled promises, we are still living in a holding pattern of unbelief and deep disappointment. It's been a poison, causing us to only see what isn't happening over what GOD IS doing. 


But it's been looming over you long enough. It's being leveled now in Jesus' name, and trees of life - GOOD TURNS are coming to you! Hope deferred has also brought exhaustion and slumber, and God is breaking that right now, too. 


How can you step into a new chapter while you are still depleted from the last?  So let him wake your heart up again and refresh you. 


DON'T FEAR THE BLANK SLATE


As I have been praying over this, I have heard the Lord wanting me to say, "Don't fear the blank slate." I know that is all you are seeing, but it's not the downgrade you are feeling it is. It's not a demotion but a new day where God is doing something new in your life. 


But do you see it? Do you perceive it? (Isaiah 43:19) 


The blank slate is the Lord freeing your hand from the basket, from the pressure, from every bondage and overhead that has been hanging over your head and stealing your joy. The blank slate is your freedom. It's the invitation to step into a new season of dreaming with the Lord, new mantle, and new assignment. The blank slate is your permission to move out of the confines that have been around you and follow the new path of the spirit. 


YOU THOUGHT IT WAS DEATH BUT…


Everywhere I go, I am saying the same thing that is flooding out of my heart from the father - you thought this was death, BUT this is where God reinvents you and brings you back to life!


This is where your seeds that fell to the ground become multiplied. 


This is where God sends the four winds to the dead places of your life and calls you to your feet! 


This is where He moves in your life, where you have been trying for so long to do it with your own strength. 


This is where your fixing days come to an end, and He does what you couldn't. 


This is where your man-made efforts stop, and the true movement God gave you begins. 


It's a booming message - you have had to die so I could move in your life the way you have been longing for me to! So today, I pray for eyes to see and a fresh hope to erupt out of you in Jesus' name!

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! This is a sign, that the WAVE OF AWAKENING is about to crash upon the shores of the nations whose hearts are ready and open! I want to invite you to a prophetic live, where we will cast prophetic vision, do some personal ministry, and pray as a community! Everyone is invited. Join me live on zoom— April 29, at 6pm PST. 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.
