I HEARD THE LORD SAY “WELL DONE FOR ENDURING THE PROCESS”

I HEARD THE LORD SAY “WELL DONE FOR ENDURING THE PROCESS”

I HEARD THE LORD SAY “WELL DONE FOR ENDURING THE PROCESS”

I had an audible dream last night where Father God spoke to me in a heart-to-heart way. I woke up and wrote down what I remembered and I knew this was a letter to all of us, an encouragement for making it through a long season, and a re-focus for the months to come. I pray this speaks directly to your heart and draws you into even deeper dialogue with Him this month.


“WELL DONE FOR ENDURING THE PROCESS”

Firstly I heard Him say “Well done. Well done for enduring the process I have taken you through even though at times it has felt more than you could handle. Well done for allowing my purifying fire to come into every facet of your life. It was never meant to expose you but to remove every contaminate that would trip you up down the road. Well done, I am so proud of you! I have been on a mission to bring you out of the dark ages of your faith where constant trials were sent to overwhelm you and steal your heart from me, but they didn’t succeed. I saw all the other affections and I’m a jealous God. I saw all the other distractions looking for a way into your world. I saw all the arrows of the enemy wanting to pierce you in the back and steal you from me and I knew I needed to alter the course of your life to finally bring you into the fullness you kept asking me for. Well done for clinging to me even when you doubted my methods. Well done for worshipping me in the waiting”


“HAVE YOU FORGOTTEN WHAT HOPE FULFILLED LOOKS LIKE?”

“My goodness never left you. It never waned even for a moment. I didn’t leave you or abandon you. But I saw you at times walking around defeated and lost, somehow convinced that hopelessness would always be a part of your life, believing that loss and settling for second best is the best life you can hope for. What happened? Have you forgotten what hope fulfilled looks like? Has it been so long? This month I am going to pull you out of defeat and seat you at the table. I am going to cause every root of hopelessness to be outnumbered by new springs of hope. I am going to remind and restore what you lost in the long road and process to where you are so you quit thinking that I don’t live up to what I promise. I DO NOT LIE, and you are about to be reminded that my promises for you are yes and amen. I’m removing the tiredness from your heart where you felt this was all on you. I am healing your heart from the toll the warfare and opposition had on you. I am taking away the slumber that kept tempting you to sleep away the season, and I am giving you back your strength and you will remember what it is to laugh and be genuinely happy and fulfilled. I will restore you and give you REST, so rest in me and watch what I do for you”


“LOOK WHAT WE HAVE BUILT TOGETHER!”

Then I heard Him say “Look what we built together! Can you see it! Can you see the beauty through all of the mess you have had surrounding you? It’s time to stop beating yourself up for how you have perceived you have navigated this difficult time and begin to celebrate that you have made it through some of life’s greatest obstacles and defeated the most intimidating giants. You stood well. You fought well. You have continued to hope even despite not seeing immediate change. Even when you only saw delay and discouragement crouched at your door. Now LOOK and see what we have built together. In the next month, you are going to see the fresh buds of life come from the most unexpected places and fruit where you never realized were producing for you. Seeds you have sown that died, DREAMS you once had are NOW going to be resurrected but with interest!”

(When I woke up from this dream it was 4:20 am and I knew God was even speaking through that)

“But the seed sown on good soil represents those who open their hearts to receive the Word and their lives bear good fruit—some yield a harvest of thirty, sixty, even one hundred times more than was sown!” Mark 4:20


“TAKE A LOOK AROUND, YOU ARE NOT WHERE YOU WERE!”

“In the shaking, you have been fully awoken. In the wilderness and greatest battle of your life, you have been anointed with my oil. Yes, that’s right. I know it’s not what you expected. It’s not the destiny-package you were hoping for but you haven’t even seen the pages of your book yet to come. You have been stuck on the moment you are in and haven’t measured this transition next to eternity, but let me tell you, you haven’t just survived, you have been revived! It may not look like it yet but one day soon you will realize that this season of shaking was your set up, your preparation, your making! The enemy intended it to be your undoing but it didn’t work! Instead, it was your consecration, your knighting, your commissioning, and coronation. Now take a look around and see that you are not where you used to be. I have removed you from so many vices that once entangled you. I have loosed you from the places that kept you bound. Apathy and complacency are no longer suffocating the life out of you and you are no longer in a place of limitation. Can you see the wide-open space before you? Prepare your heart for this”


“THIS YEAR YOU’LL KNOW ME AS PROVIDER & SUPPLIER!”

“Stop asking for the scraps from under the table,” He said. “I want you to know my heart for you in this season regarding your finances and resources. You need to be fully and intimately acquainted with my goodness over your life and know that I not only desire for you to be looked after but I need you to grow in this area so I can grow you into the territory I have given you. You can’t keep having a poverty mindset when I’ve called you to the land of milk and honey. There are nations that need to be discipled and cities that need to be reached but if you keep not expecting me to provide for the vision that I gave you, how will the kingdom be released? This is a month that I am going to stretch you to believe beyond what you have before. I am calling you to ENLARGE and stretch out wider. Your vision has to get much bigger than it has been. I am breaking the survival mentality off the church and healing the wounds of lack of integrity and fear of failure. This will be a year you know me as provider and supplier. So ask me, what do you need? What does the destiny I have placed in you require? Dream with me again. Go back to the drawing board and believe beyond where you have and don’t stop til what you envision looks impossible. I am serving justice upon the assignments that have come to continually rob your bread and seed and caused my people to retreat. No, you will now advance and plant, move out of lack and into more than enough!”


“PIONEER AGAIN WITH ME”

It is time to finally move on from this place. It has served its purpose, but now the scenery must change just like everything else has. You mustn’t think your whole existence will be in the trenches. You are called to a war but that doesn’t mean you are meant to live in the valley of the shadow of death, no, I have been teaching you how to come up out of that place and live higher. I have been calling you up into new ways of viewing all that opposes you so you aren’t surrendering to the wrong thing. So now you are moving on from this place and we are going on a brand new adventure together. There will be many unknowns and many new roads we forge but you will find your passion again and know I am running with you. It will keep requiring courage and letting go of doing things how you once did, but it will be full of so much joy. Yes, the pages of history are before us and we are going to write them together. Will you join me?


“Yet I totally trust you to rescue me one more time, so that I can see once again how good you are while I’m still alive!” Psalms 27:13


“Surely your goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever” Psalm 23:6

God is peeling back another layer of the onion right now... That’s right. Not because He didn’t heal you the first time but because there’s greater levels of freedom to explore. You are still learning what the blood did to set you free because sometimes what you saw and walked through preaches loud and it needs to be kicked out of your head. Especially if you grew up around narcissism and extreme dysfunction and abuse. You have been made clean but your head needs reminding. Triggers can still happen. So the enemy looks for landing pads and entry points of agreement. Did God really set me free? Because you see the fruit that is unexplainable, but in vulnerable moments you feel like a failure. And right now the deeply uncomfortable shaking is not God exposing you but He is addressing truth to cancel the lies hiding in the cracks of thoughts and mindsets. It’s the Father reintroducing Himself to you in places you have avoided and releasing the power of the Spirit to redeem painful moments and memories. Why? Because you are stepping out of frustrating limitations and cycles that will keep robbing you beyond this point. That’s why you are wrestling. What you are feeling is not just a SHIFT moment but a STRETCH! It’s where the Holy Spirit puts pressure on the inside of you to increase your capacity and prepare you for the MORE He called you to be. It’s where He pulls you up higher in a moment and in the natural it looks like you are suddenly missing the mark because you now have room to grow and shoes to fill. It reveals the shortfalls, pitfalls, and blind spots. But it’s only growth. Not failure. It’s the fruit of healing and saying yes. But yes, at first it feels like pressure on all sides and God confronting limiting mindsets and old things trying to sneak into your new chapter. And right now many pioneers are trying to figure out their next steps but at first this is what it looks like. Heart process. Then the waiting suddenly begins to turn into the emerging but with it comes the INNER OVERHAUL and adjustment to the light outside of the cocoon of the past season. But know this - this is not to harm you but to get you ready. The enemy spent so long in the last 5 years squashing your confidence and passion that you keep interpreting this moment as assault when it’s you leaving the wilderness and seclusion and being brought into a wide open space of dreaming again. It’s you letting go of the pauper and becoming a general. It’s you coming out from under the table begging for scraps and sitting at the feast. It’s you breaking past constantly being broke, broken, and attacked. It’s tiring to live that way and it’s draining time meant to be dreaming and slaying giants. And today the Lord needs you to know that this stretch is not to add pressure to you but to CUT YOU LOOSE! This is a balm of gilead moment where God doesn’t want to bandaid you up, He wants the balm to go deep and make you whole for the days ahead. Fortify you. Make you bulletproof against the enemies schemes and constant arrows you have had every single day of your life. He is shifting something generationally and that’s why it feels so deep. It’s a marking moment and it’s designed with only freedom in mind. And I’m here to prophesy not over you, but to you.. Like the prophet Gad said to David when he was in the cave of Addullum feeling beat up and worn down.. “Leave the stronghold!” “Then the prophet Gad said to David, “Do not remain in the stronghold; depart, and go into the land of Judah.” - 1 Samuel 22:5 It’s time for you to GET OUT OF THE CYCLE you have been in! It’s time to leave the going around the mountain! And right now God is leading you out! The things coming to the surface right now is the dysfunction LEAVING! And I prophesy come out from the discouragement and swirl the enemy has sent to you right now to lie to you about where you are at and your circumstances. I prophesy you are not going backwards. You are increasing. You are not falling behind. You are advancing. And this uncovering and nakedness you feel is only the uncovering and exposing of the demonic assignments that have been robbing you your whole life and siphoning off your joy! Now today Lord I am asking you show them a sign of your goodwill and evident favor. Reveal to them the future and a hope you have for them. Because the tide has shifted over your life so don’t let the enemy lie to you for another moment. Now, you prophesy with me: I am coming out of the dysfunction! I'm coming out of the cycles! I’m coming out of victim hood. Out of the swirl. Out of the limited mindsets and generation swamp I was handed, and i am coming into wholeness where attack and triggering no longer affects me or even shows up on my radar. Starting today my family are stepping out of feeling lost, under fire, and broken and starting our legacy as a set apart new bloodline holy priesthood family marked by the Holy Ghost and branded with destiny and to set captives free in Jesus name!!

I have spoken about this topic alot lately, but I feel to encourage you again today... 10 years ago we birthed in a wilderness. I had nonstop calls from old friends saying it was illegitimate. It was uncovered. It was rebellion. I honestly believed them. I had never felt more isolated and alone. We were out of community at the time. Our old church friends would run a mile when they saw us at the mall. Just because we chose to step into our calling.. I wrestled it more nights than I can count. Kept trying to give it back to God and created so many excuses of why I should just let it all go and fall back in line. But as much as my head was telling me I was in error, my spirit was burning and the Father kept saying “Keep going, I have led you this way!” I could feel his delight in the midst of so much internal battle and daily messages and judgement. And I decided that was enough. We kept going. Then fruit started erupting. Yes, it was like streams in the desert. A wasteland season by religious standards was our personal revival. I can’t even tell you how much of a mental battle that season was though. I was unlearning while I was leaning into the voice of the Lord. The pressure was on all sides and the Jezebel spirit kept flaring up around us to make us cave in and shut up but we decided we have tolerated that long enough. And ten years later, it feels Iike another wilderness birthing season. But this time it’s not just us, but many. It’s grassroots. Building from the secret place up. It’s where you look around and see a wilderness but yet you also feel a fresh wind blowing. And while you could go with your head and wait til the weather changes and conditions feel more right and you have all the things in place, God says “NOW…” And as in writing this I keep feeling the grief of some of you reading this who have come to this moment many times before but fear and pressure around you has made you forfeit it over and over. It’s the grief of feeling like you missed it on one hand and also the grief of knowing if you choose it you will be letting go of the familiar. And right now the giants in the land are screaming loudly at you and telling you to sit down and shut up. “Get back to your seat!” They say. That’s the mental torment you have been feeling. It makes you feel double minded. But you know what breaks it? Saying yes even when it doesn’t make sense… John’s voice cried out in the wilderness and a movement was birthed. The battle has been so intense because the enemy knows that if you step into this it will turn not just your wilderness into a garden, but it will bring so many right now who are lost into a super bloom. It doesn’t add up. But it’s just what God does. So if this is you today, stop fighting it and giving God all the reasons you can’t. You weren’t created for the Gucci ministry model, you are called to the messy… And watch God do what you have been trying to do but has failed in your own strength and your own methods. Watch him take the ashes of your striving and trying to fit a honey and locust vision into a white-washed tomb, and use it to confound the wise.  So today I prophesy - no more wandering confused and conflicted. It’s time for you to see the fruit of radical obedience and placing the fear of man on the altar. No more barrenness and feeling like a cursed fig tree. For you will feel a fresh wind and anointing to step into Gods plan for your life and the weighty mantle and call ONLY YOU can wear in Jesus name.

What if Orange County became a sending ground for revival? That's what we believe God is building and we want to invite you into it. We're establishing an apostolic hub in Orange County. Not a church service. Not a ministry brand. But a KINGDOM GREENHOUSE designed to train, heal, equip, and send. Think of it like an air traffic control tower: helping people hear clearly from God, align with their assignments, and land on the right runways, churches, cities, ministries, nations. This is for the leaders, intercessors, creatives, and reformers who are asking, “Where do I fit in this new move of God?” We're building on Ephesians 4:11–13 , apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, and teachers working together to equip the saints for ministry and maturity. What's Next? We're preparing to launch the foundation of this hub by: • Rallying the hungry • Equipping the Church • Calling out reformers • And inviting pioneers to build with us But we can't do this alone… WE'RE ASKING FOR TWO THINGS AS WE TAKE THIS BOLD STEP: 1. Prayer – for protection, provision, and clarity. 2. Financial Partnership – one-time or monthly partnerships, every seed helps us build. Would you pray about joining us either in intercession, generosity, or both? Click below to read more and give! Thank you for linking arms with us as we contend for a new wineskin in this hour. With hearts burning, Nate + Christy

I’ve had this dream more times than I can count where I’m holding a hammer and I hear the Lord say “What will you do with what I’ve given you?” It echoes the parable of the talents. I know the guilt of burying what God gave me out of fear, out of a desire not to rock the boat. But for me right now? I can’t bury it anymore. And I know I’m not alone. I see others - seed carriers with pockets full of heaven’s plans, who can feel the fire of God stirring them to finally come out of hiding and build what He gave them long ago. But it’s been a journey to get here right? Because the enemy saw what you carried long before you even knew it so he tried to discredit you, silence you, shame you and wound you. You were called heretic, rebel, false prophet, and disruptor of the peace. And maybe that last one is true. But here’s the burning message on my heart to you rogue builders... To the ones who’ve been off the grid, outside the system, who have felt misplaced and displaced - you’re not lost, you’ve been on assignment. You have been pregnant waiting for the moment. And l believe for many that moment has finally come but it’s a strange and uncomfortable tension. I feel this tension even in myself. That feeling of not wanting to step on toes, of not wanting to rock the boat. But let’s be honest, you were never meant to go with the flow. God led you into the wilderness because you’re not called to walk the road everyone else walks. The anointing on your life is not activated in comfort. It activates in disruption. You need to swing that hammer to see your calling come to life. But you have been hesitant because of what you have been through. You are called to disturb what is stagnant, to confront systems that stifle, and to release what heaven is building. That’s where your oil flows. Not in compromise, not in trying to appease the structures you were never meant to serve or come under. This doesn’t give you permission to be arrogant or critical. You’re not building against anyone. You’re building for the King. Like David dancing before the ark, undignified, misunderstood, but in a state of deep worship, you carry this call in that same way. Its worship. And yes, some people will misunderstand your motives. That’s the cost of carrying something holy and different. But it’s no longer a time to hesitate or wait. It’s a “strike while the iron is hot” moment. And even as I am writing this I am seeing a scene from Lord of the Rings where the rogue king Aragorn has the sword of his ancestors restored that was broken in pieces from battle. Maybe that represents you and what you have been through or your mission. You have felt the hammer on the inside of you and you have walked through the fire but not God is restoring you to your post in a pivotal hour of history. You see, we are shifting from an institutional model to a harvest age. The Lord is asking, “Who will build it? ” It’s 2 Kings 6 all over again where the sons of prophets realized, “This place is too small.” And they began to build but in the middle of construction, the axe head fell in the Jordan. One of the building prophets yelled out “Oh no, that axe head was borrowed! Then Elisha threw in a stick, and the iron floated to the surface. And there’s a prophetic message in this passage for us right now. The axehead represents the apostolic office and regional authority. The Church has lost its edge, relying on old models, and borrowed tools. There is a rising cry to recover true supernatural authority and power and you are called to bring it back. The Jordan represents massive change and baptism into a new era. Old systems, though not evil, are insufficient for the harvest ahead. The time for murky waters and mixture is over. The building of the bigger house represents movement in expansion but not in the way we expect. We have to build for the harvest but this means looking beyond a building and building into homes, cities, nations. It’s building beyond the current blueprint and limited infrastructure that unleashes the church into full occupation as the ecclesia. We are in a moment where it’s uncomfortable because we are leaving maintenance behind and embracing mission. This isn’t rebellion, it’s return. It’s not pride, it’s prophetic alignment with the original vision. We’re stepping back into the apostolic mission of Acts, where apostles and prophets set the foundation, and the whole body is activated to move, grow, and expand. So let me keep stirring you for a moment. Think of Nehemiah overcome by grief for the ruins, but driven by the call to rebuild. What if he had listened to Sanballat and Tobiah? What if he laid down his hammer out of fear of man? We’re at the same crossroads. This is not us vs. them, it’s us FOR them. We are leaving behind a shepherd-only model and stepping into a fivefold framework. This is where cities are won, regions are reclaimed, and the local church actually thrives because apostolic centers rise and the saints are sent. And this is what I keep seeing in the Spirit, wildfires igniting across a map. Not chaos but commissioning. Not destruction but awakening. Apostolic hubs of true power, Kingdom authority, cultural shift, deep belonging, and the rise of the firebrands. In the next five years, God is recommissioning the decommissioned rogue ones, the factionless, the wanderers and calling them to pick up their hammer and build. To set fire to the beacons. To call in the hungry. To prepare places for the harvest. It’s like Joseph who saw in a dream what was coming and PREPARED for it by building goshen. What if this was a similar moment? What if this alarm we feel is the Lord saying “PREPARE, BUILD, PIVOT!” Not out of fear but out of a strategic zeal to get the church in order, ready for the return of Jesus and our most glorious days seeing the greatest outpouring of the Holy Spirit? Yes we need to build! The reason many feel unrest is because we have a LONGING in us for what the church will be and what she is becoming but we haven’t seen it modelled yet! Until you step into your shoes and swing your hammer. Because we need the messy hospitals where the lost and broken come. We need the places where the glory comes and there is no ceiling on it. And in order for that to happen, we need our ducks out of a row for a season. We need our systems ruined so we need HIM again! But rogue builders, you may be misunderstood. What you’re building may look different, offend traditions, and challenge norms but it’s not yours - it’s Gods. You are just the carrier. So, today I believe He wanted me to write this to you as a way to shake off the dust and intimidation...He is calling you to dream with Him again. It’s time to step into the mantle and office. It’s time to stop hiding, running, and waiting for the conditions to be perfect. Oh and it’s time to stop apologizing. Pick. Up. Your. Hammer. There I said it. Yes, the hammer breaks, but it also builds. It restores, it heals, it forges foundations. That’s your call. That’s your assignment. That’s your mission. You were never rogue, you were set apart. So no more casting your pearls to be trampled. No more forfeiting your mandate. Do you keep reaching the moment of birthing and handing your baby to someone else? Do you silence your vision for fear of being seen as “too much”? Are you shrinking back because what you carry doesn’t look like the norm? You are carrying something sacred. And the enemy has been trying to convince you that it’s a pipe dream. That you’re rogue, uncovered, and a heretic? Because the Father says that you are highly favored, and even now you are breaking hard ground. So stay focused. Keep plowing by faith and don’t be bullied. This is the moment where OBEDIENCE meets DISCERNMENT meets BOLDNESS and PUSHHHH. It’s time to bring it forth In Jesus’ name. “You see the trouble we are in, how Jerusalem lies in ruins with its gates burned. Come, let us build the wall of Jerusalem… And they said, ‘Let us rise up and build.’ So they strengthened their hands for the good work.” — Nehemiah 2:17-18 “Together, we are his house, built on the foundation of the apostles and the prophets. And the cornerstone is Christ Jesus himself.” — Ephesians 2:20 “Alas, my master! It was borrowed.” Then the man of God said, “Where did it fall?” … Then he made the iron float. And he said, “Take it up.” So he reached out his hand and took it.” — 2 Kings 6:5-7
