I PROPHESY THAT THERE WILL BE NO MORE DELAY TO WHAT YOU ARE BIRTHING!

I PROPHESY THAT THERE WILL BE NO MORE DELAY TO WHAT YOU ARE BIRTHING!

Last week I woke up in the night to hearing the Lord say “Don’t delay, its time to release the movement NOW!” I felt such an urgency on this instruction as if we were at the kairos moment the transition and preparation has led us to birth these ministries, expressions, streams and movements from heaven. I instantly thought of the scripture in Revelation 10:6-7

“No more delay! For in the day when the seventh angel is to sound his trumpet, the mystery of God will be fulfilled, just as he announced to his servants the prophets”

The urgency of the hour is the revelation of heaven being revealed, and who has God chosen to reveal His messages? Us! His messages have been designed uniquely and wrapped intricately within us and our own lives ordained to be released to draw people to Jesus and give Him glory. The instruction of the hour is “Don’t forsake what I have placed inside of you but allow me to bring it to completion!”

NO MORE INTERRUPTIONS

As soon as I woke up I kept hearing two words, “Interruption” and “Assassination” and I felt prompted by Holy Spirit to pray and break off a specific demonic agenda that comes against movements and movement carriers. The assignment of assassination has tried to prevent momentum by interrupting the work of the Holy Spirit bringing overwhelming doubt and confusion, tiring opposition and spiritual harassment, and most obviously choking the voice of these ones carrying these movements. But the justice of the Lord is roaring over His people and every single arrow that has been fired is being returned, every single bind is being undone, and for weariness and discouragement is coming a fresh strength and joy for the vision.

“Listen carefully, I have created the smith who blows on the fire of coals, And who produces a weapon for its purpose, And I have created the destroyer to inflict ruin. No weapon that is formed against you will succeed, And every tongue that rises against you in judgment you will condemn. This peace, righteousness, security, and triumph over opposition is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, And this is their vindication from Me,” says the Lord” Isaiah 54:16-17

David was birthing a movement when Saul sought to assassinate him and interrupt the destiny God had for the nation, but nothing could stop it, and I prophesy that NOTHING will stop the movement you are birthing either! I command these assignments of interruption and assassination to cease right now over those reading this in Jesus' name!

WHOSE APPROVAL ARE YOU AFTER?

There are many tactics the enemy uses to delay what God wants to birth through us but as I was in conversation with the Lord I kept sensing the pursuing love and approval of the Father combating the fear and disapproval many feel in this stage of their spiritual pregnancy. His love right now is breaking the religious shackles of those who have not launched out due to fear of failure, in fear of what people will think, and fear of not having people’s approval and green light.

So many of you are carrying powerful movements but are waiting for someone to call your number and approve you before you jump out, roll out the red carpet, open the door, and give you a platform. I did this for years and all it did was create frustration in me and resentment that no one was seeing what I carried. All the while God was simply asking me to trust HIS approval and begin to step out daily. God is fanning flames in this season that will be wildfires for the nations. Some of the most powerful movements of this season won’t be birthed from the stage and lathered in the approval of the masses, but birthed in obscurity bathed in the fire of the secret place. If God has called you and anointed you and you feel that release then GO!

“ For truly, if you are called to a life-union with the Lord, you are already a free man! And those who were called to follow Jesus when they were free are now the Messiah’s slaves. Since a great price was paid for your redemption, stop having the mindset of a slave. Brothers and sisters, we must remain in close communion with God, no matter what our situation was when we were first called to follow Jesus” 1 Corinthians 22:24

Fear is coming off those who have felt timid about moving forward, every weapon sent to take you out is being stopped and instead you will feel the loving approval of God championing you forward!

THE CUTTING ROOM FLOOR

Movements go through a very messy journey before they become tangible and often in this process carriers are tempted to abort the mission before it even sees the light of day! I recently had a vision of the hand of God grabbing rolls and rolls of memories and seasons of people’s lives and attaching them together to be used for something significant. I knew what I was seeing was a photography cutting room and represented the “process” we all go through, but I kept hearing the phrase “the rejection floor” as if these were the moments people faced severe rejection and opposition to their calling, gifting, and the movements they carried. God was collecting these fragments and bringing healing to hearts by resurrecting what looked dead when people had judged and weighed them. Many movements have been tested in fire over and over and even rejected by man so that you wouldn’t be able to point back to yourself or others when Gods light shone upon it and blessed it. Your seasons of rejection are going to be the fuel for what you are about to release but no you won’t look back in bitterness anymore, you won’t look back and feel the stabbing pain but you will realize that it has only ADDED to the potency of what you are birthing! As the Lord took these rolls suddenly they began to play up on a movie screen, but instead of looking messy and chaotic there was a celebration as if the Glory hidden by God even in those hard memories was revealed!

There are those who felt like they have been in this darkroom for a very long time waiting without any change. I saw these people like cellars of aged fine wine that the Lord was taking out of its season of maturation. These are those who have felt “in the waiting” and to the point where you have released it to the Lord but this has been a season God has been stirring up your womb and causing you to dream again, heal from the disappointment and pick up the baton again. You have been asking God “Why has it taken so long?” but in this season you will see why God has caused the wine to mature and ripen longer because of the impact the movement in you is going to have. Not a drop will be wasted and this will be a season of dreams fulfilled and seeing things you had on paper materialize.

PROTECT THE DELIVERY!

God has been warning me and showing me how we need to prepare and protect in a birthing season of movements more than ever. You may already have the crib set up but now it’s time to think about the delivery. 

I had a dream just before writing this word where I was In my home and i had a brand new car in my living room I was marveling at. But outside were people circling the house trying to distract me and get in. In dreams generally new cars represent new ministries and movements and upgrade. The home represents your heart and life and in this case it represented protecting my borders from an external invasive force. So back to the dream – i went to the door and began quarreling with one of them but as soon as I did it stirred up a thronging of an angry mob who began trying to shake the house. I knew this was demonic because even the demon Jesus casted out of the possessed man was called “mob”. The warning of this dream was not to engage with the enemy but to take authority and command him to leave. Guarding your perimeters is about making sure there are no areas of access to the enemy or anything in common with him. What are you entertaining? Protect the borders of your heart and your home, family, and destiny will be untouchable.

WHO IS IN THE DELIVERY ROOM?

Right after Jesus casted out the “mob” out of the man, he went healing a few others but one in particular was the young girl who was the daughter of a religious leader.

“When they arrived at the home of the synagogue ruler, they encountered a noisy uproar among the people, for they were all weeping and wailing. Upon entering the home, Jesus said to them, “Why all this grief and weeping? Don’t you know the girl is not dead but merely asleep?” Then everyone began to ridicule and make fun of him. But he threw them all outside” Mark 5:38-40

The Holy Spirit was really highlighting this story to me because I believe its key for us in this season. When you are on the brink of your greatest breakthrough and miracle, when you are about to SEE your promise birthed, you have to also cast out any voices of doubt, confusion, or anything that is opposing what God is trying to do through you. Like the quote “When you are birthing, you can’t have everyone in the delivery room with you”

This speaks to me again of this urgent hour to ensure that NOTHING PREVENTS THE BIRTH!

Who is in the delivery room with you right now? Who are you letting into your heart space? Are you casting your pearls before people who don’t believe in where you are going?

PACK YOUR BAGS

As a call to action, I feel like the Lord saying GET READY. I remember weeks before our daughters were born we prepared an overnight bag for the hospital, and I feel that the Lord is saying “PACK YOUR BAGS, GET READY!” Because even if you don’t see it or feel it God is going to UNVEIL what has been inside of you all this time.

How can you pack your bags? Here are some practical keys;

  • Live intentionally OFFENSIVE against the fear and anxiety that tries to cause you to retreat or steal your joy
  • Surround yourself with TRUTH and worship your way into continual peace
  • Speak and prophesy Gods promises so that you aren’t being seduced by the lies
  • Take authority of any witchcraft and spiritual assignment trying to numb you, muzzle you, blind you, veil you, and intimidate you.
  • Take communion often! There is POWER in the blood!
  • Remind yourself of the victories and milestones
  • Celebrate the impending birth and get expectant
  • Cast off the tiredness and weariness, ask for new strength!
  • Put the vision before your eyes, fix your eyes forward not behind you!

I CAN HEAR THE SOUND OF RAIN!

By Nate Johnston • June 27, 2025
I have a short word of hope and encouragement to share with you today.. I woke up earlier this week and I felt something I haven’t felt in years.. Like the fresh smell of rain in the distance. I could actually smell it and my spirit began to burn with excitement yet it didn’t make sense. Like Elijah’s servant seeing the cloud the size of a man’s hand on the horizon. What’s coming? I didn’t feel fear. I felt hope. Change. Courage. A new chapter rolling in. Drought turning into a downpour. Jezebels curse breaking off the land after a showdown on the heights. Whooooooooooosh… the sound of wind rolling in over the desert plains and the four winds rushing around the decommissioned and those in spiritual death. It doesn’t make sense. Wars. Rumors of wars. What is coming Lord? I can hear the sound of rain. Coming to wash the land and usher in revival. I feel the morning dew on my feet of a new day dawning after being in midnight for so long… And I feel like we are coming out of a dark winter. Winters death. And right now I can see the tired old casing that had been spiritually resting on us lifting. The old mantle. The old cocoon. The wandering in the desert. The long and hard battle that has seeped into our skin and worn us down little by little. Burnt out. Used up. Exhausted… dead even. But I could see for the first time a muscle coming to the surface. A fight and a stamina I haven’t felt in years. A ferocity humming under the surface of the deep. Brrrrrrrrrr. Like tremors unsettling the debris, ashes, and rubble that we have collected. Old warriors rising.. The disillusioned rising with new eyes and un-yoked from the past. Yes, winter has passed. Springtime has come. A ripening is here. Hunger is here. Awakening is here in the worst of moments for it to come by natural standards. But that’s when it rolls in and does the most damage against darkness. Like Jesus waking up Lazarus who was 4 days dead, God right now is waking up his church. Chaos surrounds us in the earth but if you’ll ascend the hill of the Lord you’ll see it - the season has changed. You are coming into a new day, out of defeat, apathy, robbery, and putting on strength, hope, and clarity in Jesus name, and God is turning dead bones army back into an army of hope carriers and storm breakers again!

THERE’S BEEN A MIND-BLINDING SPIRIT WARRING!

By Nate Johnston • June 25, 2025
We are right now in the greatest mind war of our time. The Lord spoke to me recently and said, “I’m coming against the mind-blinding spirit that has come over My people.” You see, right now we’re looking at the potential of World War III between Israel and Iran. We’re also facing the possibility of civil war breaking out in multiple areas of the U.S. over controversial issues. But the real World War III has already begun, and that is the world war of the mind. The spirit of this age has crept in deceptively through fear, culture, and media to hit the Body of Christ from so many angles, for so long, that we have become a people being pillaged and plundered in our minds on a daily basis. Recently, the Lord led me to the scripture in John 11:16 when Jesus was going to return to Jerusalem; “Then Thomas said to the rest of the disciples, ‘Let us also go, that we may die with him.’” Thomas, whose name [Didymus] means “twin,” also represents the double-minded. I asked, “Lord, what are you trying to show me?” And He showed me: there is a double-mindedness, a spirit of confusion that has come upon the Church. It’s leading people away from the Gospel, away from the narrow path, and trying to reason the Church out of its calling and destiny, even in the midst of chaos. It’s a mind-blinding spirit that has come against the Church, cloaked in wisdom and common sense, to lead her into deception. It’s leading the Church away from truth under the guise of love, tolerance, and acceptance. It’s a mind-blinding spirit that speaks fear, gloom, and doom over these times when we are called to speak hope and redemption, and lead the Church into her greatest days. It’s a mind-blinding spirit that says, “Your greatest days are over,” simply because we’re in a season of storms and battles. It’s trying to shut down the Church and make her powerless, when this is a time we are called to wield the power of the Holy Spirit. This spirit is trying to lead the Church into a false sense of safety, when we are meant to be called into discomfort to see the greatest move of God hit the earth. This mind-blinding spirit has created a chatter of witchcraft. It has warred against believers, created factions, and caused us to rise up against one another, tearing each other down. It’s created confusion to such a degree that many are coming into agreement with the accuser of the brethren, with the enemy, on many fronts. But this is not the heart of the Lord. The Lord said to me, “I am warring against this spirit right now.” There is a war, and the Lord is actively warring against the mind-blinding spirit. I believe He is saying over us: He’s bringing us back into peace and clarity. He’s bringing us back into oneness, into single-mindedness. It says in Matthew 6:22: “The eye is the lamp of the body. If your eyes are healthy [single], your whole body will be full of light.” This reminds me of when Elisha’s servant was gripped by fear because he could not see what was really happening in the spirit. “Don’t be afraid,” the prophet answered. “Those who are with us are more than those who are with them.” And Elisha prayed, “Open his eyes, Lord, so that he may see.” Then the Lord opened the servant’s eyes, and he looked and saw the hills full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha (2 Kings 6:16–17). This is our prayer today: Lord, open our eyes! We must see what’s happening spiritually and naturally. We must stop interpreting life from the ground level and begin to see from the throne room. The blindfolds are being removed. The fog is lifting. It’s time to come out of earthly thinking. We are seated with Christ in heavenly places. Ephesians 2:6 says, “And God raised us up with Christ and seated us with him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus.” We are not victims of the news; we are the watchmen of the hour, the voices that declare from the heights what God is doing in the valleys. Right now, the Lord is delivering the Church. He’s going to use situations around us to deliver us from our own deception where we have partnered with the enemy, with the accuser, with fear, with compromise, with lukewarmness, and with false wisdom. So even now, if you’ve felt like you’ve come under torment, confusion, or compromise, if you feel the weight of heaviness, and it’s brought conflict or distance between you and the Lord, and the pure call on your life, reject it now. Renounce it. Tear up any vows or agreements you’ve made with it. Lay your hands upon your head and pray: “Lord, as an act of my will, I come out of double-mindedness. I repent for double-mindedness. Deliver me from witchcraft, from chatter, and from this mind-blinding spirit and its assignment. I rebuke it now in the mighty name of Jesus. I declare that my dreams will be restored. My visions will be restored. Revelation will be restored. I come back into sync with Heaven, with hope, and I will see clearly in the days ahead.” Because the real war, the real purpose behind this battle, is that the enemy knows if the Church is blind, we will be unable to see in this critical hour. We will be walking with blindfolds when we are called to see, declare, and prophesy what God is doing in the midst of so much unrest and chaos. We are the news, my friends. We are the beacons of hope, the bell ringers of a new day. No matter what’s going on in the world, we carry hope, strategy, and redemption. Step back into clarity and peace in the name of Jesus. “The god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelievers, to keep them from seeing the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God.” — 2 Corinthians 4:4

JULY IS THE MARKER - WE ARE ENTERING THE GREAT CONTRADICTION

By Nate Johnston • June 23, 2025
Christy and I have this saying: that after a day, a week, or a season of warfare, watch because suddenly the snake’s head is revealed. It’s happened like clockwork over the years, where after intense seasons of warfare, or even just a crazy day of warfare, like clockwork, the next day or in a short period of time, the snake’s head would be revealed. It might be that email that comes in, revealing what’s been spoken about you. It might be that intimidation, that threat. Whatever it may be, it’s the snake’s head revealing itself. And it reveals that the enemy has been warring against you. And why? I say that to get to this point. I believe we’ve been in a window of time of tests, trials, and warfare. When we stepped into January 2025, I felt it: it was going to be a faith test. It was going to be a test of whether I’d stick out my calling, stick to the plan, whether I would stay on mission, the one God gave me. Whether I would remain strong, or crumble and fall. Because you see, there’s been an attack against believers since January that has been on another level. And that attack has been designed to surround you on every single side until you crumble. It’s like when Jesus was led into the wilderness and had to battle in His mind, to combat the enemy’s tactics over and over. We’ve been in a season where the enemy’s been relentlessly trying to give us easy way outs, second options, off-ramps at every turn, trying to get us to back out of the call of God, choose the easy thing, or create Ishmaels along the way. Have you felt this? The warfare has been intense. The shadow has increased. The slander has increased. Robbery has come from every single side. Health issues. Bank accounts depleted. Doors shutting. It has been relentless. Yet at the same time, I believe God wants to see what we would do in this moment because He knows what’s coming. It’s been a Romans 8:18 moment, where we’ve seen a whole new level of pain, but it’s going to be followed by glory. So, what I want to share with you is what I believe God is doing from July onwards. In Luke 4:14, it says, “that after He came out of the wilderness, He returned in the power of the Spirit.” I believe that as we step into July, we’re about to see the glory revealed in the very areas where there’s been robbery. We’re about to see the glory revealed in the very places that were tests. We are coming out of that place. And you might be thinking, “Well, this doesn’t make sense. The world’s in chaos. Things are going crazy.” Yes, those things will continue. But I’m speaking to you as a believer about what God is doing in your life, and in the life of the Church. I believe we are entering a shift. A turning of the tide. I believe that starting in July, we’re turning a spiritual corner. For those who have said, “Okay, God, I’m not going to fight against You. I’m not going to resist this process, because in it, there’s protection. In it, You’ve been breaking me out of comforts, breaking me out of mindsets and mentalities I’ve carried, that only warfare could have confronted.” I believe we’re now beginning to see the glory that He has been wanting to reveal and showcase in our lives this whole time. I believe the next six months will be a strange contradiction. I believe in the next six months things will look wild and chaotic in the natural. We’re going to see things happen and erupt in the financial markets and on the world stage. Things will continue to intensify and look debilitating, even hopeless. Yet the strange contradiction will be this: somehow, you’ll feel like your role has flipped. Whereas before, you felt safer in the natural while everything was falling apart spiritually, now it’s like the reverse. You’ll feel an internal strength and clarity in the Spirit, even while the world’s systems shake around you. God is beginning to reveal Himself on your behalf. I believe we’re in a massive turnaround season for those who will reach out and say, “Yes, okay, God.” There is going to be a massive turnaround financially for the Church. We are entering into days where God is bringing in a billion-soul harvest. Things are ripening. Revival is breaking out in messy ways, but glorious ways. And in these next six months, the Lord is declaring over you: You’re turning a corner. You’re going to see the glory now. Where you’ve seen shaking, where you’ve seen suffering, you will now experience My goodness, My mercy, My favor. It’s the Psalm 23 moment where the Lord seats you at the table in the presence of your enemies and anoints your head with oil. So get ready, Body of Christ, because we are entering into the days of the great contradiction. The shaking will continue, but now it will begin to reveal the glory in your life. These are the days of leaving the wilderness endued with power. And just like I said at the beginning, watch for the snake’s head. Because in this moment, God is not just exposing it, He’s empowering you to crush it. The very thing that’s come after you is about to be under your feet. The warfare has been real, the pressure has been intense, but now comes the revealing. The snake’s head is exposed, and it will not have the final word. You will.
