I HEARD A WAR-CRY COME FROM THE EAGLES

Nate Johnston

I HEARD A WAR-CRY COME FROM THE EAGLES

I HEARD A WAR-CRY COME FROM THE EAGLES

I HEARD A WAR-CRY COME FROM THE EAGLES


In a dream a few nights ago I kept hearing this scripture;


“For the eyes of the Lord roam throughout the earth, so that He may strongly support those whose heart is completely His” 1 Chronicles 16:9


Then I saw the Lord as a large Eagle that was brooding over the earth looking for those with a pure heart. Then it started swooping down over the nations of the earth with its talons extended releasing a war-cry. 


In response, other eagles that were alone and dormant suddenly begin to cry out and joined the skies to unite together with the other eagles. 


I believe this dream is what God is doing right now in this hour in the earth. I believe that the Lord is brooding over the earth and looking for His war eagles that would rise up and take the heights for him and begin to release a cry over the nations. 


It's a prophetic company of people that have been in hiding, that have been alone, and that the Lord is calling out of hiding in this hour and He is joining together for a mighty purpose in the earth. 


The purpose of the eagles is to release the strategy of the Lord, the wisdom of the Lord, the new sound, and the war-cry that awaken Gods people who asleep and would begin to sift out what is pure from impure. 


And the call of the Eagles is to call the body Christ higher in this time. 


Far too many eagles have been in isolation and the brooding is the shaking and the deliverance to call them out of dormancy. It’s time for the eagles to gather again. 


It's time for the eagles to spread their wings. 


It's time for the eagles to release their cry. 


THE WINGS OF PROPHETS RESTORED


Earlier in the year as we were driving from Colorado over in into New Mexico, I had this vision of this incredible golden eagle that had its wings spread, but its bones were brittle, its muscles weak, and every second or third feather was missing. 


I said, ”Lord, what, what am I seeing?”


And He said to me that the eagles had been under attack and had their feathers ripped and torn. 


I know that this speaks of the prophets, the pure prophets in states, in cities, and in nations of the earth that have had their feathers plucked by the enemy.


They have been bullied and under fire by the Jezebel spirit that has been trying to seduce them into compromise and apathy, and by the religious spirit that has been trying to discredit and assassinate this prophetic company.


There’s been an onslaught of territorial spirits and principalities in regions that have been trying to stop these eagles from soaring higher and releasing their cry.


You see, you need all your feathers in your wings to be able to soar to the heights and also the feathers of an eagle are its glory. 


The enemy has been trying to strip the prophets of their glory because a prophet without its glory is just an ichabod that carry’s no authority, power, signs and wonders, or the pure word of the Lord. 


And many eagles have being silent. They've lost their cry and they've lost their sound. But the Lord is restoring the eagles to their post right now, and he's restoring them to their company. 


He's brooding over you. Even right now as you're reading this, I pray that you'd feel a rumbling in your belly. I pray that you feel the spirit of God beginning to move and, and beginning to beginning to tremble the waters of your spirit, and beginning to cause you to come alive. 


EAGLES NESTS ARE FORMING


And I pray right now that the Lord will begin to unite you with your company that God is raising up - the eagle's nests emerging around the earth right now. 


He's raising up pure companies of people that have no motive and no agenda except to release the word of the Lord into the earth. 


I believe there is an a reformation that is coming to the prophetic company. It's like where the sons of prophets came to Elijah and said, “this place is too small for us. We must accommodate what God is doing!”


He is putting an appetite in that that is saying “What we have is too small! We must expand, we must build!”


And the Lord is beginning to migrate them into position for this great move of God. 


And lastly, God is raising up the eagles to release a mighty bone shaking war-cry in the earth where the prophets have been underground, where the prophets have been timid and scared and afraid of releasing the Word of the Lord. And they will stand to their feet once again!


“Suddenly!” says the Lord, “A new cry shall come upon you. You shall feel a bubble up from your spirit. It's a cry of courage. It's a cry of boldness. It's a cry that's going to come against the lukewarm sound that the church is adopted through culture and the war-cry of my eagles shall rise up and they shall release the sound of purity and a raging fire that shall usher the church into a new day and standard and lead the church higher. 


EAGLES SHAKE OFF THE WEARINESS! 


Now Eagles, let me prophesy. It is time for the tiredness and for the weariness to break off you. 


It is time for your wings to be repaired. It is time for you to soar again. It is time for your muzzled and silenced voice to begin to release the war-cry in the name of Jesus. 


I hear the Lord saying Psalms 103:5 that you will renew your youth like the Eagles. 


Even right now, let renewing come. Let revival begin to take place on the inside of you. Even right now that youthfulness come over you and a fresh wind to come upon you that will take you higher. 


I hear the Lord say that you will “mount up on Wings of Eagles today”


Yes mount up on Wings of Eagles and break free from the place all that you've been in that has kept you at a low altitude. 


It is time to come up to the high places and begin to release your war-cry again says Lord. 


This is what you were created for. You were not created to cower you, were not created to stay silent. You were created in this hour to be the eagle of the Lord that releases the voice of the Lord into the earth!

SOMEONE NEEDS TO HEAR THIS TODAY—TURN THE PAGE!

By Nate Johnston • May 27, 2025
Let go. Don’t get stuck because you can’t move on without the closure of answers to why things landed the way they did. Why things fell apart and why you were left holding the broken fragments of a dream you felt God led you to. Why you were attacked so relentlessly and lost so much. Why you were shipwrecked, slandered, and feel like you have only gone backwards not forwards. I know it’s cost you everything and you don’t see what it produced yet, but unless you turn the page it won’t allow God to connect the dots and reshuffle the pages that right now feel out of order. For isn’t he the orchestrator of your life? He knows what those dark nights produced even when you didn’t. He knows what those seasons were for even though right now all you see when you look behind is dead ends and wild goose chases. But unless you turn the page you’ll never get to see the rest of the story and see Him connect all the seasons like poetry. Yes, even the hard and most painful moments He has a way of turning around if you’ll let Him. So how do you do that today? Give up. It’s where you choose to close the chapter by giving Him the pieces and questions. It’s a faith thing and the deepest surrender when it feels unjust and you don’t understand. And I know many reading this feel bottled up with grief, but today refuse to keep rehearsing or trying to do this in your own strength. The floor is the only way forward and there’s a brand new chapter waiting to unfold. It’s a call to trust. To believe that even what you can’t understand has been seen, measured, and held by a God who doesn’t waste pain. But you have been living in a chapter that ended a long time ago. The ink dried, the door closed, but your heart stayed behind trying to rewrite what already happened. Let that go. The new is already here waiting for you to choose it over the tired tape of the past you have been watching. It’s here to show you that there’s so much more ahead for you than you knew. It’s waiting to breathe life into your lungs and bring clarity and vision after the fog. So turn the page, not because you understand but because you are choosing to trust the one who’s writing it. And watch what He does with the blank space. 

DON'T MISS YOUR BURNING BUSH SEASON

By Nate Johnston • May 27, 2025
As we start this week, I have a word for many out there: Don’t miss your burning bush season. Or maybe I should say, don’t overlook your burning bush season. Don’t miss it. We often look at seasons where things don’t add up or make sense and diagnose them as seasons of waiting, seasons we’re just trying to survive until we get to the next destination, the next stop. We don’t always see the richness of what God is depositing in each season. In the last few days, I keep hearing this: Don’t miss your burning bush season. Remember the story of Moses? He was tending his father-in-law’s sheep in the wilderness when he saw the burning bush. He was simply doing his job, satisfied in it when suddenly, there was an encounter with God. And God pulled him out out of the wilderness, out of that environment, out of that situation, out of the guilt and shame of his past. God pulled him out and gave him an assignment. Now Moses was tending the flock of Jethro his father-in-law… and the angel of the Lord appeared to him in flames of fire from within a bush. Moses saw that though the bush was on fire it did not burn up.” - Exodus 3:1–2 “God called to him from within the bush, ‘Moses! Moses!’ And Moses said, ‘Here I am.’” - Exodus 3:4 He was simply doing his job, when suddenly, there was an encounter with God. And God pulled him out of the wilderness, out of that environment, out of that situation, out of the guilt and shame of his past. God pulled him out and gave him an assignment. “So now, go. I am sending you to Pharaoh to bring my people the Israelites out of Egypt.” - Exodus 3:10 And I believe we are in a moment right now that, to many, feels like a standstill. It feels like a hiatus after a long season of pioneering for the Lord, one that has strangely led to this place of wilderness. As I’ve been sharing for a while, we’ve been in a Hosea 2 season, where the Lord has been leading the Church back into the wilderness. That wilderness has been necessary for you. You’ve needed respite. You’ve needed refreshing. You’ve needed to break away from the hustle so God could reset you and bring you back to encounter, which is the ultimate reset. That’s what truly resets you. You’ve taken on so many mantles and jackets—Saul’s armor—for years. You don’t know which way is up anymore, or what your assignment is, who you’re called to, or who you’re not called to. You don’t know where your alignments are meant to be. You’ve had your hands in too many pies, your feet muddy from too many places. You’ve been slimed, slandered. You’ve walked through heartache, difficulty, betrayal. Yet, you’ve felt the compulsion to step into anything just to feel like you’re not lost. But no, the wilderness has been necessary to set you free. Here’s what you need to know: the wilderness can shift quickly because the wilderness leads to encounter, and encounter launches you into your new assignment. I say this over you and prophesy: you are in a very small window of time where the Lord is doing a massive work. The time isn’t long but the work is deep. Let me say that again: the time isn’t long, but the work is deep. God is going deep generationally. This isn’t a short cleanup process. God is going deep into your life, and He wants to set your feet on a new foundation. That’s right this season you’re in right now is a season of a brand-new slab being laid in your life. A new foundation. What is foundation? It’s where God gets you ready, gears you up for the new thing He’s going to build in your life, around you, and through you. Last year, we went to Australia, and the Lord gave me a dream: two towers crumbling to the ground. He said, “You’re at ground zero.” That’s what this is—a ground zero. A new slab has been laid in your life. God is going low and slow right now. He’s getting you ready because many of us have built for years without a foundation—without solid structure or deep roots. So God’s been setting that right for the new season, and for the Church. But we often misdiagnose seasons of fresh foundation as stagnancy, when they’re anything but. When the Lord sets your heart right, He aligns you to a rhythm and a synergy you didn’t know in the past season. He sharpens your discernment your ability to see and know what’s true. He leads you to the right people, right places, and right environments. I believe one key part of this new foundation is that God is leading many out of loneliness and isolation. He’s not just setting your feet upon the rock of salvation He’s breaking off orphan mentalities, the hustle, the striving and leading you into an Acts 2 infrastructure: community, family, people who hold your arms up so you can thrive. This foundation includes restoration God restoring the years the locusts have eaten. And He’s doing that right now. Now for the weighty part of this word: That moment with Moses at the burning bush was more significant than we often realize. It was like Elisha being mantled by Elijah a sudden shift into his true calling. In that moment, God told Moses: “ Go. Set my people free.” And Moses responded, “But God, I don’t know how to speak.” God replied, “When you go, I will give you the words. I will give you signs. I will give you the power.” “Moses said to the Lord, ‘Pardon your servant, Lord. I have never been eloquent…’ And the Lord said to him, ‘Who gave human beings their mouths?… Now go; I will help you speak and will teach you what to say.’” - Exodus 4:10–12 He didn’t just send Moses on an impossible mission. He backed him with the power of heaven. And I feel the word of the Lord right now for many who have been in this season of waiting: You have been fashioned and formed to be a voice for the Lord in this next season. To set the Church free. To set the bound free. God is raising up unconventional, unusual, untrained voices who carry His heart. And I prophesy, in the mighty name of Jesus: this is your burning bush season. You are stepping out of the wilderness and into the bold voice God has called you to be. Let me go one step further: This week look. Look for the signs in your life of breakout. Look for the moments. The encounters. Because that’s where God is waiting for you. You’re looking for external change, for doors to open. But you’re missing the door that’s already swung wide open: the door of encounter. The door to the secret place. The door that leads into the tent of meeting. That’s what I’m calling you to. That’s what God is commissioning you into - a season of intimacy and encounter. So let me prophesy over your - this week, your wilderness shifts. It shifts from waiting to encounter, from wandering aimlessly to walking in clarity. The fog lifts. The silence breaks. Heaven is speaking. Dreams come now! Insight floods your spirit like a rushing river. May the full healing of the wilderness come—so the rest, the restoration, the commissioning can follow. Lord, raise up your wild voices. Those untrained by man but marked by fire. Those who have met You in hidden places. Let them rise now, rooted, ready, and roaring in Jesus’ name. Amen.

But in order to fulfill this assignment, we cannot do this alone. We’re writing to ask you to join us—not just as a spectator, but as a builder. The harvest is ready, but the laborers and resources are few. We need: — Intercessors to cover this move of God in prayer. — Financial partners to sow into this Kingdom mandate. — Servant-hearted builders to help establish the foundation.
