I saw a cloak of courage resting upon your shoulders.

Today marks the second half of 2019, and as I was asking the Holy Spirit what He was saying for the remainder of this year, I saw a cloak of courage coming down from heaven like a cloud and it rested upon the body of Christ. I heard the Father speak to my heart: “In the next six months you will see and feel courage rest upon your shoulders like you have never felt before. I am mantling you with a cloak of courage. It is a cloak of royalty and it is the seal of your Kingly authority. Where many of my children have been intimidated by the enemy, there is a fresh anointing that you will physically feel upon your shoulders, moving you into a courageous determination to seize your promises.”

Many of you have been feeling the contention and war upon your promises this year and rightly so. The fulfilment of your promises are a direct threat to the enemy. Your promises fulfilled will dismantle the enemies strongholds across the earth. I believe for many that the battles have been fierce and I can hear the questions, ‘what about the prophecies for this year? Will I see them fulfilled?’ I hear His voice: “Listen, beloved, I have seen the pressures you have faced, I have walked with you through the fires and I am answering your cries for help. I am releasing this cloak of fresh courage and boldness upon your shoulders that you may charge ahead unafraid and grasp in faith what has been promised you.” I saw this cloak of courage as two fold. It is for the personal promises God has given each of us individually, and it is for the body of Christ as a whole. This cloak of courage will greatly disrupt and bring confusion to the enemy who has been pushing in on every side to silence the body.

I then saw another vision. I saw a picture reel of a woman with a crown upon her head and this royal cloak resting upon her shoulders. She was in a hand to hand combat fighting an onslaught of opposition, surrounded by many opponents. She appeared to be growing weak in strength as she fought, as her enemy was seemingly overcoming her. She then paused for a moment with the chaos still raging all around her, and the vision turned into slow motion as she closed her eyes and took a deep breath. As she closed her eyes, she stepped out of her own strength and the cloak appeared to glow over her shoulders, infusing her with a fresh anointing. It was like out of a superhero movie and it was as though she had accessed her secret source of strength. She then opened her eyes blazing with fire and at that moment a sonic boom burst forth from within her, throwing all of her opponents to the ground without effort. 

A changing of the Guard and a Second Wind.

I believe this is a picture of the Bride of Jesus at this moment. There has been rising persecution against the body of Christ, and increased opposition in the spirit as the children of God advance upon the promises and high places of the earth. However, many have been fighting in their own strength and I feel that there is a changing of the guard as this fresh anointing of His Spirit will release a second wind to you, breathing new life and bringing effortless victory through His strength. I have been seeing a recurring theme of the wind of His Spirit, and I felt Him impress to my heart that this fresh wind of the Spirit was here to breathe a second wind into the hearts of those who have grown weary. The contention on your promises has been a direct assault to abort their fulfilment simply because of what it means for the enemy. Your victories are his defeat. Remember that. I saw that many have been losing strength, losing hope and even losing faith- doubting whether the promises would be fulfilled. 

“The next six months will not be in your strength,” says the Lord, Almighty. “The next six months my people will move into victories by MY strength as MY courage rests upon them. As they receive by faith, my second wind will blow mightily upon their weariness and renew them like the eagle lifting up higher upon the winds. Where persecution has been increasing around the world, where my children have grown weary in their own personal battles, I am causing them to push back the darkness through the power of My authority that rests upon them. My people are arising in boldness, power and courage, as has never been seen since the days that Jesus walked the earth. Even then, they will do even greater- for they will move as ONE with My Spirit. Each one moving with my cloak of courage and might resting upon them."

These are the days of Elijah.

This phrase keeps repeating in my spirit: ‘These are the days of Elijah’. I did some bible research on the word ‘cloak’ and amazingly found this scripture that links to Elijah and the cloak.

1 Kings 19:13

When Elijah heard it, he wrapped his face in his mantle and went out and stood in the entrance of the cave And behold, a voice came to him and said, "What are you doing here, Elijah?"

The word ‘mantle’ and the word ‘cloak’ in the Hebrew are the same word, ‘addereth’ which can also mean ‘glory’, ‘splendor,’ ‘magnificence.’ Elijah was just about to emerge from the cave of intimidation. He had seen marvelous victories, but also faced fierce persecution and fear. As Elijah emerged from the cave, he wrapped his face in his ‘mantle’ or his ‘cloak.’ Another way to see it is, he wrapped his face in Gods ‘glory.’ This cloak I saw in the spirit is also the glory of God. I believe the Holy Spirit is inviting us to ‘wrap’ ourselves in it, behold it, gaze upon Him, be fully immersed in the magnificence of His glory. This is an invitation, just as it was for Elijah, to come out of the caves of hiding and intimidation, come out of the cave of fear and faithlessness, wrap yourself in the cloak of His glory and listen for His voice. He is covering you in new courage to move in the direction He has for you. He is calling you out into the open and into His presence. It is only when you come out, will you hear the still soft whisper that is directional for the next steps. You can't stay in the cave any longer, you must come out in order to receive the coordinates for your next move.

I hear the Fathers voice resounding, over you “No more will my people be backed into a cave. No more will they retreat with intimidation, for they are coming out of the caves as lions and lionesses... roaring fiercely with the sound of heaven reverberating through them. It is time for them to emerge and ROAR! It is time for my people to take their promised lands, for them to take back what the enemy has stolen and ADVANCE upon the high places of the earth. Watch, as mighty strongholds fall swiftly all around you in the next six months. The delay, retaliation, backlash and resistance you have faced will be obliterated in a moment. For I am frustrating the plans and purposes of the enemy and every giant that stands before you will fall. Stand up again, my mighty ones. Get up off the battlefield, wipe yourself clean from the battles past, receive my strength and my courage to move forward again, for you are at the threshold. Now is not the time to back down. My victory is your victory. Receive My cloak of courage today. Be covered in my glory.” 

It's time to MOVE out of the caves and cells of fear.

Finally, in my study, the Holy Spirit led me to Acts 12:7-8 which says: 

Suddenly an angel of the Lord appeared and a light shone in the cell. He tapped Peter on the side and woke him up, saying, “Get up quickly.” And the chains fell off his wrists.And the angel said to him, "Gird yourself and put on your sandals." And he did so. And he said to him, "Wrap your cloak around you and follow me."

Peter had been in prison, with chains around him and here, an angel of the Lord miraculously sets him free, instructing him to ‘get up quickly’ and to gird himself, put on his sandals and wrap his cloak around him and then follow him. There is a prophetic picture here for you and I that connects to the story of Elijah's. I feel to break off intimidation, fear and hopelessness off of you. I heard the words in my spirit, “I don’t want to read another prophecy and get my hopes up again.” Yet, I hear the Spirit of the Lord saying to you this day, “it is your hope and your faith that is the very key to break out of the current cell or cave you have been trapped in.” I believe He is giving you these instructions today: 

  • Get up off the floor of the battlefield! 
  • Arm yourself with His Word! 
  • Put on your strength (shoes represent peace which is His strength.)
  • Wrap yourself in His glory 
  • Follow Him.

It is interesting that it is the same thing that Elijah was required to do. Get up, put on his strength, cover himself in the glory and then emerge from the cave... only then did direction come. The voice of the Lord is not found in the cave, it is found in the emerging. Many have been searching for their next steps, next direction, feeling at a loss and as though your hands are tied for this next season. The Lord is saying, ' Get up by faith and emerge. My direction for you is waiting on the other side of your obedience to get out of the cave." I break off any fear or disappointment you have been trapped in! Like the chains that fell to the ground around Peter, the past has no power to hold you in bondage any longer in Jesus name. You have a calling, a higher purpose and you are needed for this hour. Lift up your eyes, mighty ones, that the King of Glory may come through you. Receive the cloak of His glory filled with courage that He is releasing to you this day. Wrap yourself in it, immerse yourself in His glory. It will be your resolve and strength in the days to come. You will fight off any resilience with ease as you move in His strength. This is your hour to seize your promises and see the prophecies for this year fulfilled. For the promises that are fulfilled this year, will greatly affect the years to come.

I declare the next six months are going to ASTOUND you!!!

WHEN GOD UNMASKS THE NARCISSISTIC SPIRIT

By Nate Johnston • 17 May, 2024
Earlier this week Christy and I were revelating together over how we both feel like the Lord is revealing the head of the snake of narcissistic assignments in relationships and alignments right now. For many years, it's felt like a taboo subject in the church as victims have felt afraid to speak up for fear of looking unloving or critical. Many believers have been deeply entrenched in spiritual prisons to this spirit, whether in marriages, family relationships, friendships, or church environments. It's been the culturally acceptable spirit that has lingered for generations, enslaving and oppressing God's people, especially prophetic people. It seems to be a rite of passage for those called to be a voice in this hour, having to navigate many seasons of constant assault and bully tactics. But something has shifted recently. It feels like the church is beginning to wise up and rise up, realizing they can't keep pretending it's okay to be treated the way they are. They can no longer keep allowing this spirit to suppress them and muzzle them, and in an hour, they are called to step into their God-given assignment. JEZEBEL UNMASKED Right now, this spirit is being unmasked in families, marriages, and relationships, giving many courage to break the recurring cycle of the demonic mess they have been enduring for decades. The silenced are finally beginning to push back in the power of the spirit and resist it while many others are pushing back on those rising up, stuck in a Stockholm syndrome-type bondage to the spirit where they have lived for so long, protecting and covering up for the narcissist. But I believe the jig is up. God is revealing this spirit for what it is. Jezebel is being unmasked. That's right. Narcissism is nothing more than Jezebel in disguise. What we have called a "disorder" for years is nothing more than the fruit of her twisted games. What we have called submission in abusive relationships and environments is nothing more than her control to keep people in check. What we have called modern culture is nothing more than her demonic propaganda being spread to the masses to infect and rob a generation of her purity and kingdom values. It goes deeper than we know, but now she is being unmasked on a personal and corporate scale. She has been in disguise, but now she has nowhere to hide. The church is rising up. THE POISON IS COMING OUT In early April, I had two very detailed dreams. In the first dream, God revealed his plan to unmask this spirit in families, marriages, and relationships. I saw masses of people standing under a waterfall of the spirit and poison was leaving them as they stood there and let the Lord flush it out. Standing under the powerful flow, they began to yell, "I see you, Jezebel, and I no longer tolerate you in my marriage and family!" It felt like a moment of recovery and take-back. God was flipping the script in family dynamics that felt impossible to shift or turn around but I could see He was doing it. It was being exposed and bringing deliverance to those operating in this spirit. And for those asking, "Can people really be delivered?" Yes, I have to believe that nothing is outside of God's ability to heal and transform. That doesn't mean we stay in abusive settings or keep tolerating it, but it does mean giving the people operating in this spirit the opportunity to repent and turn their lives and patterns around. But without repentance, there will be no change. In the dream, I could see how this poison had been affecting people for a long time, but God was dealing with it globally. That's why right now, it's coming to the surface and why victims of hidden and covered-over abuse are coming out of the shadows. Can you feel the poison coming to the surface right now? This leads me to my next dream. DRAINING THE SWAMP The second dream was far more intense and was even detailed in revealing movements and empires God is unmasking Jezebel in right now. This dream was revealing her footprint and influence in ministries and the church. For years, I have been talking about how Jezebel has been given a seat at many tables. Networks and movements have willingly let her have the stage and water down the word, bringing the masses into bondage. But this dream showed something far more sinister. In the dream I was on a massive property owned by this empire when I watched many scenes unfold of deep underground evil being fronted as a ministry. The compromise was painful to see. Jezebel was not only welcomed here, but she was running the show. In the dream, I stood up and began to confront it when Jezebel called for security to take me out. I escaped in a gondola car over a large lake, but the ropes were cut. As we fell into the lake, it began to drain until it was empty, revealing a small film set. I was witnessing the moment she was welcomed in.. in the infancy of the ministry decades earlier. It had then become a global phenomena bringing many other ministries into bondage who ate her food. This dream revealed the narcissistic spirit at work In a global network environment and how it hasn't just affected one or two people but millions in one swoop. But right now, God is draining the swamp. Those who have been under her spell and in bondage for decades to her cult-like demands and false coverings are being freed. Contracts are being torn up. False alignments are being exposed. Yes, God is raising up a Jehu company to throw her down! THE WHISTLEBLOWER ANOINTING So don't be surprised if whistleblowers rise up and when they do remember this; Whistleblowers aren't always operating in a critical spirit. Many of them are called to blow the lid off the festering evil hidden under Jezebel's bed. They lay down their lives to do what prophets on her payroll refuse to. Whistleblowers are not only those called to cast out and evict this spirit, but they carry the purity to build God's heart in the ashes of the demonic aftermath. We are those who have been bullied and muzzled and pushed in the corner for too long, now stepping into an anointing to take off her mask and lead the church into her days of being the spotless and pure bride! CALLING A SPADE A SPADE I feel like I have so much more to say on that topic which we will be diving into in RMNT BOOTCAMPS this year. (WWW.RMNT.CO) but for now, I want to give you a straightforward directive for this hour. Many of you have been in bondage to or affected by this spirit, whether in your family, marriage, or ministry/church environments. Your number one question is, "How do I begin to break free?" The answer to this is simply NO LONGER TOLERATE IT! Revelation 2:20 says, "Nevertheless, I have this against you: You tolerate that woman Jezebel, who calls herself a prophet. By her teaching, she misleads my servants into sexual immorality and the eating of food sacrificed to idols." My answer to you is - no matter what you are facing, let your focus be - I CAN NO LONGER LET HER SILENCE OR SUPPRESS ME! Take authority over that assignment. Repent for tolerating it for so long. Ask for deeper healing from her poison. And draw up strong boundaries to no longer let people operating in it affect you. Then, stand by your convictions. Then take communion daily and overcome by the blood of the lamb which is your greatest muscle in this process. And don't let the religious spirit make you feel wrong for exposing her, but let's normalize EXPOSING IT FOR WHAT IT IS! I know many of you are in burnout after enduring this for so long. I know you are in a swirl of mental bombardment because she senses you breaking free. I know you feel a deep lethargy, wanting to keep you in that bondage. But your future and many others are going to be impacted by your own freedom. This is worth fighting for. Even if they slime you for a season you will see God vindicate you. NOW, LET ME PROPHESY This is your breakout moment. I commend the Jezebellic, narcissistic spirit to be broken off your life now in Jesus' name! You are coming OUT of the twisted games and daily manipulation of this spirit and into the freedom of the HOLY GHOST!!

THE DREAM OF THE THREE COINS

By Nate Johnston • 08 May, 2024
I've had the same dream consecutively for the last three nights in a row, and I believe this dream is the Lord speaking about what He is about to pour out upon the body of Christ in this next season. Before I share the dream, I need to speak about the season that we have been in. It's what I have called a spiritual and natural recession. Since 2020, there has been an assignment or recession constantly trying to make the church back peddle on faith amidst so much shaking. It's the season where finances have felt tighter because the enemy is anticipating this great wealth transfer that he dreads coming to the church. That's why financial systems have been shaken, interest rates have skyrocketed, and people have gone into survival mode. Yes, the enemy has been afraid that the church will not be able to build the infrastructure for the years to come. He has tried to bring back a poverty mindset upon the body of Christ and a hope-deferred spirit to cause us to feel deeply let down by God and doubt His promises. This is why we have seen a great delay in promised provisions, breakthroughs, and plans. It's where many have had an endless assault on their bank accounts and things that used to flourish in past seasons. This is why it has felt that things have been falling to the ground and failing, and many of your plans and ideas have been shipwrecked, and you have not seen them flourish as you used to in years past. But I feel even before I share my dream, I need to say to you - this is all changing. We've been in a season that has felt like recession, and the news is only backing up this fear agenda, but just as we are on the cusp of what the world is saying is going to be another great depression, the Lord says today that you are going to experience my EXPANSION! GO TO THE RIVER! Now, let me share the dream. In the dream, I am simply told that I must go to the mouth of a river and catch a fish. As I catch this fish and bring it in, I open up its mouth, and there are three gold coins inside. On the first coin, it says DEBT. On the second coin, it says SOW. On the third coin, it says BUILD. Do you remember the story of when Jesus owed taxes and what He told Peter to do? "But so that we may not cause offense, go to the lake and throw out your line. Take the first fish you catch; open its mouth, and you will find a four-drachma coin. Take it and give it to them for my tax and yours." - Matthew 17:27 I believe this dream was shown to me three times because three represents restoration and fullness. When Peter denied Jesus three times, Jesus restored him three times by saying, "Feed my sheep!" I believe this dream is speaking into a season of such endless provision in those three areas - debt repayment, Sowing, and Building. We are about to see a season of the repayment of debts that is not just the debts that you owe, or that God wants to wipe clear, but the debts that people owe you. We are coming into a time where the Lord is repaying that which the locust ate in your life. You have lived in such a deficit and been living in a deficit mindset constantly - always under and never above, but the Lord is coming to repay that which has been stolen and robbed from you for many seasons past. And where you've been living stewarding debt, the Lord wants to switch that so that you are beginning to steward the endless resources of the Kingdom. Regarding the second coin, The scripture that came to mind was Ecclesiastes 11:1; "Cast your bread upon the waters, For you will find it after many days." I believe we're entering into a time again when the Lord is restoring the joy of sowing. He's restoring the principle of sowing and the joy of sowing where many have felt like they've been in that survival mode and being unable to give, or even just being afraid of giving because of endless hardship and financial assault. The Lord is demolishing that mindset, and he's releasing joy upon the body of Christ to be the sowers and givers that we are called to be. I believe this is a promise that we're stepping into a time of great sowing where the Lord doesn't want us to be given wealth for the sake of hoarding it up, but for the sake of being a river, a flow-through, whereas He gives into us, we continue to release that finance through us and to those around us. We begin to help others build their dreams, build the things that God has given them, rather than just building what we have been given. We are entering a time where the world will look to us because we will be flourishing like a Goshen in the midst of so much ruin in man's systems on earth. THIRD COIN - BUILD Regarding the third coin, Many have been saying for a long time, "God, how do I build when I don't have the resources to build?" And so, for many years, people have been contending; they've been bringing the plots of land before their eyes. They've been printing out their vision and praying over it. But over the last year, I've noticed that people have begun to grow weary because it's like, "God, you've given us a massive vision, but we don't even have 1% of the finances to be able to build this vision!" It has felt like a deep cloud of discouragement and soul sickness has hit many because the enemy has been delaying these plans for so long now. It's begun to feel like a pie in the sky. It's begun to think like fool's gold. People have begun to get despondent and frustrated. There have been people who have lost their homes and their livelihoods, and in the midst of that, it almost feels like a cruel joke to have to believe in the promises of God for a big vision when you're barely surviving in some of these other areas. But I believe this dream is speaking that the Lord is about to release the resources to build. He's releasing the provision to finally build what He has given us. But today, the Lord says, "Get ready, the body of Christ, because you've been in survival mode for a long time. You've been in a time where you've had to manage and juggle and shuffle. "But I'm leading you out of that limited place into a time of a great reset of finances and provision of mindsets, and in your heart where you've grown hope deferred, you're about to build and see that which I've given you to build, get ready body of Christ, get ready body, get ready!" it's time to go down to the river. It's time to pick out the gold coins from the fish's mouth. And it's time to see a new era of provision come to your house in Jesus' name.

WHEN GOD UNMASKS THE NARCISSISTIC SPIRIT

THE DREAM OF THE THREE COINS

By Nate Johnston • 08 May, 2024
I've had the same dream consecutively for the last three nights in a row, and I believe this dream is the Lord speaking about what He is about to pour out upon the body of Christ in this next season. Before I share the dream, I need to speak about the season that we have been in. It's what I have called a spiritual and natural recession. Since 2020, there has been an assignment or recession constantly trying to make the church back peddle on faith amidst so much shaking. It's the season where finances have felt tighter because the enemy is anticipating this great wealth transfer that he dreads coming to the church.

GO TO THE RIVER! Now, let me share the dream. In the dream, I am simply told that I must go to the mouth of a river and catch a fish. As I catch this fish and bring it in, I open up its mouth, and there are three gold coins inside. On the first coin, it says DEBT. On the second coin, it says SOW. On the third coin, it says BUILD. Do you remember the story of when Jesus owed taxes and what He told Peter to do? "But so that we may not cause offense, go to the lake and throw out your line. Take the first fish you catch; open its mouth, and you will find a four-drachma coin. Take it and give it to them for my tax and yours." - Matthew 17:27 I believe this dream was shown to me three times because three represents restoration and fullness. When Peter denied Jesus three times, Jesus restored him three times by saying, "Feed my sheep!" I believe this dream is speaking into a season of such endless provision in those three areas - debt repayment, Sowing, and Building. We are about to see a season of the repayment of debts that is not just the debts that you owe, or that God wants to wipe clear, but the debts that people owe you. We are coming into a time where the Lord is repaying that which the locust ate in your life. You have lived in such a deficit and been living in a deficit mindset constantly - always under and never above, but the Lord is coming to repay that which has been stolen and robbed from you for many seasons past. And where you've been living stewarding debt, the Lord wants to switch that so that you are beginning to steward the endless resources of the Kingdom. Regarding the second coin, The scripture that came to mind was Ecclesiastes 11:1; "Cast your bread upon the waters, For you will find it after many days." I believe we're entering into a time again when the Lord is restoring the joy of sowing. He's restoring the principle of sowing and the joy of sowing where many have felt like they've been in that survival mode and being unable to give, or even just being afraid of giving because of endless hardship and financial assault. The Lord is demolishing that mindset, and he's releasing joy upon the body of Christ to be the sowers and givers that we are called to be. I believe this is a promise that we're stepping into a time of great sowing where the Lord doesn't want us to be given wealth for the sake of hoarding it up, but for the sake of being a river, a flow-through, whereas He gives into us, we continue to release that finance through us and to those around us. We begin to help others build their dreams, build the things that God has given them, rather than just building what we have been given. We are entering a time where the world will look to us because we will be flourishing like a Goshen in the midst of so much ruin in man's systems on earth. THIRD COIN - BUILD Regarding the third coin, Many have been saying for a long time, "God, how do I build when I don't have the resources to build?" And so, for many years, people have been contending; they've been bringing the plots of land before their eyes. They've been printing out their vision and praying over it. But over the last year, I've noticed that people have begun to grow weary because it's like, "God, you've given us a massive vision, but we don't even have 1% of the finances to be able to build this vision!" It has felt like a deep cloud of discouragement and soul sickness has hit many because the enemy has been delaying these plans for so long now. It's begun to feel like a pie in the sky. It's begun to think like fool's gold. People have begun to get despondent and frustrated. There have been people who have lost their homes and their livelihoods, and in the midst of that, it almost feels like a cruel joke to have to believe in the promises of God for a big vision when you're barely surviving in some of these other areas. But I believe this dream is speaking that the Lord is about to release the resources to build. He's releasing the provision to finally build what He has given us. But today, the Lord says, "Get ready, the body of Christ, because you've been in survival mode for a long time. You've been in a time where you've had to manage and juggle and shuffle. "But I'm leading you out of that limited place into a time of a great reset of finances and provision of mindsets, and in your heart where you've grown hope deferred, you're about to build and see that which I've given you to build, get ready body of Christ, get ready body, get ready!" it's time to go down to the river. It's time to pick out the gold coins from the fish's mouth. And it's time to see a new era of provision come to your house in Jesus' name.

FOR THOSE ASKING "WHERE DO I GO FROM HERE?"

By Nate Johnston • 01 May, 2024
This is burning in my spirit to share for those who have felt stuck or put on hold especially in the last 4 months. It seems like you are back in waiting but aren’t sure what for. You feel like you have been on a wild-goose chase that has suddenly shipwrecked you in “no mans land”. It feels like you have been robbed of your vehicle - your purpose. Like you have been pulled over and forced out. You feel like you have ended up in a situation that looks nothing like what you envisioned, grieving what makes you come alive but is now out of reach. Looking behind you it feels like your best days are over like you hit your peak - but you haven’t even seen your best days yet. I saw the word I NTERRUPTION being crossed out and in bright red the word LEGACY was written over it. None of this is an accident - where you are right now is a setup. THE UNEXPECTED PATH None of this was a mistake. Your unusual path. The detour. The treasure hunt and blind faith journey. It wasn’t a tease. It was designed to go somewhere you couldn’t have found on your own. You wouldn’t have chosen the mess and the unknown, the struggles and wrestles, pressing and crushing - and you also wouldn’t have seen what was waiting for you at the end of this. But now your heart needs to adjust to the new landscape. The new thing that you didn’t expect or envision. It’s not settling - Its surrender. It’s not giving up - it’s finally moving with the new flow and accepting the new script. ADDRESSING THE LIES The lie of failure has shut down your creativity and confidence. It’s made you drop your sword and begin to bargain your way out. The lie of being abandoned has questioned your first call and whether you heard God at all. No, you didn’t miss it. The lie of “this is as good as it’s going to get” has made you begin to settle for second best and make your bed in the valley but you are moving through! THE SEED FALLING TO THE GROUND Many have been in an extreme 4 months of what has felt like a “falling to the ground season” where it has felt like everything they once held has had to be laid down. “Very truly I tell you, unless a kernel of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it remains only a single seed. But if it dies, it produces many seeds” - John 12:24 I heard the Lord say “If my people don’t lay down what they are holding how can they pick up what I am giving them next?” It feels painful to let go of a dream or expectation you built your life around but God isn’t taking it from you to hurt you but to ADD TO IT! God wants to multiply you! Have you been fighting it? The enemy has. He wants you to stay in the same place you have been. He wants you to hold onto the old seeds that have worn around your neck like a necklace, but if you don’t let them go they will become like a lead weight! As quickly as you lean into surrender God will pour out what he wants to give you. This refining and shaking moment is protection and promotion. It’s advancement and the breaking of apathy. It’s the pure ointment clearing away the old husks of an old season. ENTER THE RESURRECTION! I then heard the Lord say “I am resurrecting my people!” and then I saw the 4 winds of the Spirit whirling and could see the purpose behind this process - God has been seeing his people in bondage, trauma, and constant conflict with the enemy and so He sent us through the fire to DELIVER US! What emerges from this furnace now is going to be so potent. New movements, ministries, messages, and voices. New synergy, partnerships, family, and tribe. Watch what and who leaves the tomb in this season. Watch who comes out of complete disablement with a fresh sound and voice for this season. “In the midst of fiery hot trials, persecution, shaking, opposition, and warfare, heavyweight ministries and movements are emerging and birthing. This is far from a “stuck” or “decrease” season for those who have held onto the hem of Jesus garment. This is where we see the cross outwork powerfully in crisis” “He must increase, but I must decrease” - John 3:30 God didn’t cast you off or send you into isolation - He is REFORMING you and readying you for the next chapter of this pioneering adventure! THE NEXT SIX MONTHS The six months from now til September (Rosh Hashanah) are going to be WAY OPENING months. New direction and coordinates are coming where there has been only roadblocks and no options. New blueprints and fresh vision for the days ahead are coming. Old wineskins will keep falling away. Powerless seeker sensitive Christianity will keep losing its grip and fiery red hot believers will emerge to lead the way forward. Veils of religion and fear are going to drop off the ears and eyes of Gods people so we can see this season clearly and embrace and seize it instead of running and hiding. We won’t fall for the lies of false prophet media. Regardless of what we hear on the news or see in some circumstances. God is tapping us into the newsroom of heaven to see beyond the storm. We are going to shake off the death of this past season and begin to live through the glasses of hope and the victory of the finished work of the cross again. Foundations will keep shaking as God reveals the true rock to build upon on. Structures on sand won’t survive this season. We are coming back to what matters and shedding the weight of every thing that has cluttered us and held us in bondage. We are going to resurrected seeds multiplied. We are going to increased anointing on those who have walked through this shaking season and kept their eyes on the Lord. Jesus is taking center place again in the church. We will see the broken merchant tables of the old expired movements begin to make way for the oil lamps of the burning ones. We are entering an extremely high revelatory season - and Jesus will share this heart with his friends. We are stepping out of defeat and into strategic alignment to hear the counsel of the lord and action it. The Josephs will make themselves known with practical insight of how to plan and prepare and build. We are entering a season of visitation that turns the hearts of the cold back to the Lord. Families that have even under fire will begin to see their broken foundations rebuilt and God is bringing joy and recompense to those who have suffered loss and sowed in tears. And Jesus gets all the glory.

TO ALL OF YOU FACING GIANTS THIS WEEK

By Nate Johnston • 01 May, 2024
To all of you facing giants this week: As I was praying I heard the Lord say “This is a moment to REMEMBER a what I have said and what I have done” “This is a moment to remind yourself of the breakthroughs you have seen and the impossibilities I demolished in front of you” “This is a time to find your greatest trials that you saw me move in and anchor yourself to that testimony that I will do once again” “This is a time to dig up the words spoken and prophesied over you and go to war with them, arm yourself with them, and stir up your faith to see them come to pass” “I know it’s hard to get your hopes up right now, and it’s been so long since you have seen opposition budge but you are about to see mountains move!” “Cut off the sources of fear, and stop listening to the giants trying to talk you out of your inheritance because soon they will be gone and you’ll hold the keys to the land” “Reject the lies and the failure, and ask yourself; who is fighting for you? Who wages war with you? Who is by your side? Who will never let you do this alone? That’s right, I am with you” “So this week raise up a shout and press into my presence. Lift up your sword and pierce the thick air with your cry, because your worship is going to disarm the warfare and unlock the gates” “The giants in the land are no match for my power and anointing I have given to you. So shake off the defeat and feeling powerless because you have the same power in you that resurrected Jesus from the grave” Let every obstacle, principality, roadblock, and demonic assignment shake in their boots as you March into this week with your hopes up and your sword raised high... we are going to see VICTORIES for the battle belongs to the Lord! “I will sing of you, the one who gives victory to kings— the one who rescues David, your loving servant, from the fatal sword” - Psalm 144:10 “Do not be afraid or discouraged because of this vast army. For the battle is not yours, but God’s” - 2 Chronicles 20:15
