LOOK! HERE THEY COME! A Word for the Wild Ones...

As we come to the close of 2022 I have been reminded of this word I shared in my book The Wild Ones and I felt the need to read it again today for myself. Like many of you, I have found myself asking God "What was the point of this year? It feels like more delay, more disappointment. Are we ever going to move into the new thing that You have for us?" I know many of us are feeling lost right now...


But today I feel to remind you, just as the Lord reminded me, of who you are and where we are going. This word will remind you of exactly that! As we head into a new year it feels like the Father is wanting to realign us and make sure we are focused on the main things—To point and lead people to Him and to reveal Him in the earth—that is our whole purpose and the one thing we live for!


PROPHETIC WORD FOR THE WILD ONES - LOOK HERE THEY COME!


“For if you remain completely silent at this time, relief and deliverance will arise for the Jews from another place, but you and your father’s house will perish. Yet who knows whether you have come to the kingdom for such a time as this?” (Esther 4:14)


I was up early one morning when God began speaking to me “Here they come Nate, here are My wild ones!”

GET READY FOR A RUDE AWAKENING
“I have opened the gates and I have decreed that the time is over for those who have been in waiting for this moment. The moment I have prepared them for is here, and now the earth is in for a rude awakening because My front-liners are stepping into the light. They are My movers and shakers and demonic stronghold breakers and here they are to usher in a season of revealing of My Glory through My Bride."


THEY ARE THE UNDIGNIFIED, CLOTHED IN GLORY, COMING FROM THE WILDERNESS
“Right now, I am bringing them out of exile. I am gathering them from all over the earth where they have been hidden and in waiting for a long season. They have wondered if I had abandoned them or if they would ever be used in the Kingdom because they were never fully accepted as a part of it, but right now they are emerging in the world’s greatest moment of pain, and the Church's hour of desperation.

“They are my undignified Davids that care more for My presence, My will, and My plans than the wise plans of man. They aren’t politically correct or motivated by reputation, but they have only one thing in their sights—and that is worshiping Me and giving Me glory. Can you see them coming? Will you have eyes to see them? Will My Church accept them? Will they keep turning them away?

“They haven’t been given a red-carpet welcome, but they will be clothed in so much Glory it will be hard to deny them anymore. The fire of My presence is all around them and they aren’t here to play games but to carry the torch of revival and establish My Kingdom on the earth”


THEY AREN’T REBELS, THEY ARE THE RESCUE TEAM!
“Remove the barricades and the gate-checks, for they aren’t the rebels they have been seen as but they are in fact the rescue team! They didn’t quite fit the mold and they didn’t measure up to the standards of the institution, but they are sons and daughters who know My heart and know My house well. They have been in hiddenness for this very moment to bring HOPE to where many are prophesying hopelessness. They are the ones who have My eyes and see how I see. They know what is to come next. They aren’t swayed by temporary storms, but they are the ones that will point the way to where I am moving and what I am doing.

“Look now, they are peeling back the veil and lifting up the curtain. They are speaking about what is to come and they live from that reality. If you want to hope again, watch where they are going! They are setting the stage for the new production and unraveling the new blueprints and plans I have given them.”


THEY WILL USHER IN A MOVE OF HOLINESS & BREAK TIES WITH MIXTURE
“I am using them to raise a new standard for My people. Where there have been foxes that have stolen from My people and their faith for generations, I am restoring faith. Where foxes have come and stolen the revelation of My abiding Glory, My signs and wonders, and My healing virtue, they will restore it. They will point the Church back to the true north and clear the overheads. They will come with their hammers and chip off the pieces of rock that have been stumbling blocks and not building blocks, hindrances, and not stepping stones. They are coming as a sign of the new wine and the beginning of a new era of My Church. I am not shutting down the Church as we have known it, but at the same time, the Church will never be the same way it was ever again. What had to be shaken was shaken. What had to fall and die, fell and died, and what didn’t have My Spirit upon it is right now breathing it's last. For I am jealous for My Bride to be the PURE Bride!

“What they thought was rejection from the mainstream culture was in fact My protection for an upcoming season. And that season is here now! They have been set apart so they could usher in a move of My Holiness and power. A Holiness so mighty that it will reveal the thoughts and intentions of men and reveal who is for Me and who is about building their own kingdom. This is a move of purity that is exposing the double-mindedness, duality, and mixture that has subtly crept into the hearts of believers and disconnected them from My heart.”


THEY WILL BE THE BRIDGE BUILDERS & RESTORERS
“Their hammers will be mighty, and they will seem ferocious, but it isn’t out of rage but out of righteous conviction to set the record straight and RESCUE & LEAD the Church forward. In fact, I am right now baptizing them afresh with a love for the Church in all of Her expressions and parts so that they won’t be the demolition team but the bridge-builders. Like Nehemiah, they will grieve that parts of the city are in rubble and they will build and restore what has been broken down.

“They will raise up other builders and teach them to build the new while still honoring what has been built before them. They will seamlessly connect the seasons and the moves of My Spirit and reveal the pathway forward for My pioneers to run in. Many have said 'They are against what I have built!' but I have not raised them to tear down what I have given you to build, but to tear down the enemy's work and add and increase what you have been building. I have given them an anointing to see the cracks in the foundations and to fix and address them.”

THEY WILL BREATHE LIFE INTO DRY BONES, BROKEN SYSTEMS, & BURNT OUT MOVEMENTS
“And as they build, they will breathe life into the dry bones of the dead and burnt-out movements that religion tired out and caused to expire before its time. They will be revivers of revival fire and they will cause fresh fire to enter those who have been barely flickering—they will get a second wind to finish the purposes I gave them to accomplish. Broken systems will be reinvented and reinvigorated, and My Spirit is going to cause wheels to turn where there has been no oil.

“They will especially revive the dead movements and dreams of those who were shipwrecked. They will cause hearts to start beating again in tune with mine and begin to burn with love-sick desire where they have grown cold and deeply discouraged. In moments they will take the weariest, oppressed, and wounded of soul and cause their furnace to be ignited again.

“They will find the hurting and derailed fathers and mothers of previous movements and restore honor to them, purpose to them, and give them a reason to believe in the impossible again. They will unearth the gold in people. But to get to gold you need the hammer, not just water. The hammer and the shaking, but soon the gold emerges.”


THEY WILL CONFRONT THE GIANTS NO ONE ELSE WILL
“I have asked the Church, 'Will you stand up and be a voice? Will you confront the opposition and advance the Kingdom, or will you cave in and either maintain or retreat?' The intimidation and assaults have been relentless, but I have raised up a remnant who will not stand aside when evil is at their doorstep. This remnant will confront the giants that no one else will. They will be the Davids that will choose to fearlessly face the principalities in the land and call it for what it is. They will not water down the gospel or sell out to win the favor of man, but they will bravely move in offense against the assignments of the enemy that has defied the Church.

“Innocent blood has been shed for far too long in the nations and there has been but a few that have stood in the face of true evil and given their lives to see it overturned. But my wild ones will not be those who back down, no, they will be like Esther who chooses to give her life to see every injustice overturned.”


THEY WILL BE A VOICE WHERE OTHERS CAVED INTO FEAR & SPEARHEAD CAMPAIGNS OF MY JUSTICE
“As they march into battle in places that none have dared to tread before they will break open the way for the Church to gain back ground and advance where we have been slowly shrinking back. These wild ones will be like battering rams that break open the way and will be the spearheads of justice that enter into new territory that we have not had influence in before. If you think you have seen the positioning of My people in high places you wait until you see where I take them next. I am sending My reformers into the lion’s den and the leopard’s lair for the sake of the outpouring that is going to take place on the enemy’s own campground.

“These wild ones will speak when I tell them to speak and they will not have a religious filter that edits or politically corrects and adjusts what I ask them to say. They have not been tainted by the fear of man and they will simply SPEAK, and the Word will go forth. As they speak it will set in motion a domino effect of courage in those who have been afraid to speak.”


THEY WILL LAUNCH WILDFIRE MOVEMENTS IN THE MOST UNLIKELY WAYS & PLACES WITH THE MOST UNLIKELY PEOPLE
“They will leave all behind this season to launch wildfire movements that have less concern for the tangible structure or program, but they will be focused on the people. They will have an apostolic anointing to build quickly and easily gain momentum and I have given them the favor to do it. It will look messy and foolish at the beginning but soon fire will spread effortlessly.

“And I will move upon those who man would not choose. I will choose who I choose, and I will move on who I move upon—and I am going to pour out My Spirit upon the most unlikely people in the most unlikely ways. So, get ready to see undeniable fruit from places that would offend the pious and self-righteous because I have come for all, not for a few, and I will pour out My Spirit upon ALL.”


THEY WILL CLEAR THE AIR & MAKE JESUS THE MAIN THING!
“I have given them an anointing that will be like a clear clarion call to the Bride calling Her back to Her first love and it will clear the air from all noise pollution and chasing vain desires, and it will bring the hearts of My people back to Me again. Above all, My wild ones will offend the Church out of Her idolatry of Her own brands and reputation and cause Her heart to return to Me. My wild ones will usher in a move of repentance that will cause those who have veered off course to correct their path, the lukewarm to run to Me, and those who have been chasing buildings and empires will forfeit them like crowns at My feet. They live for one thing and this is to point and lead people to Me... to reveal Me in the earth.”


THEY WILL OPEN UP A NEW REALM OF ACCEPTANCE & PERMISSION FOR THE CHURCH & RE-ACTIVE LOST ENCOUNTERS
“Their keys were stolen and it’s time they got them back! And I am using this remnant to remind the Church of what She has settled for in this season. Religion has caused My Church to forget how loved and accepted She is and the permission upon them to do what they have inside of them. But they will usher in a new season of permission to those who were squashed and crushed under religious red tape and protocol.

“The gates of My affection will suddenly fling wide open for them and they will see Me not as a hard taskmaster, CEO, or head bishop but as Father and friend and suddenly every seed and idea inside of them that has been lying dormant will begin to germinate. Suddenly innovation and creativity will spring forth and hope-deferred will lift.

“When was the last time they boldly came to the throne? Religion has created a minefield of impossible hurdles to get to Me, but I am not like that. It has created a mindset of unworthiness that has stopped people from encountering Me and even longing for Me to make them feel known. To replace encounters religion has instead made an intellectual idol out of Me and I am removing it from the Church in this season, and my wild ones will overturn the tables and restore My presence again!”


THEY WILL DISTRIBUTE HAMMERS OF REFORMATION TO THOSE WHO HAD THIERS STOLEN & RESTORE THE VOICE OF THE BRIDE
“They will be the brokers of Heaven's storehouse for this hour. They will be the ones who lead the Church back into My domain and open up the forgotten storehouses of access and authority they have forgotten existed. They will take the empty-handed and hopeless into My house and put back hammers in the hands of reformers who had theirs stolen, songs back into the mouths of worshippers who were shut down, books and pens into the hands of the scribes, and restore the voice of the Church where She has been silenced and voiceless. At first, it is going to feel foreign as they hear the sound of their voices rising again and see the powerful impact of their mantles upon darkness and injustice, but this is the awakening of My Church in the revelation of who they are in Me!”


THE CONVERGENCE SEASON & THE LEGACY OF LAID-DOWN LOVERS
“They need to know that I am so proud of them. I know it hasn’t been an easy road to walk and at times it has felt like I have abandoned them or dealt them an unfair hand but NOW it will all make sense why I made them the way they are. THIS is the moment that every season converges together, and they finally see the purpose in the pain and the pressing that has turned into power and anointing to break the yokes of bondage and set captives free.


“Watch them now running out of the wilderness, out of the hiding, out behind the facade of other roles that were limiting them and keeping them at bay. Watch now as My wild ones begin to emerge from all walks of life and all streams. I can see the look in their eyes as they are right now standing to their feet. This is worship to them, not a task. This is the life of laid-down lovers not the objectives of a servant. These are My friends and My Spirit is in them upon them for this magnificent hour of the unveiling of the Bride, the great TURNING of hearts, the harvest at hand.”


  • “And to present her to himself as a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless” (Ephesians 5:27)
  • “The entire universe is standing on tiptoe, yearning to see the unveiling of God’s glorious sons and daughters!” (Romans 8:19)
  • “But I will restore you to health and heal your wounds, declares the Lord ‘because you are called an outcast, Zion for whom no one cares.’ (Jeremiah 30:17)
  • “Who is this coming up from the wilderness leaning on her beloved?” (Song of songs 8:5)
  • “You will be known as Repairers of the Cities and Restorers of Communities” (Isaiah 58:12)

THREE ASSIGNMENTS TRYING TO DRAIN YOU RIGHT NOW

By Nate Johnston • July 9, 2025
There are three key assignments at work trying to drain your strength in this season. Recognize them and resist them. The first is a shift in anointing and assignment. We’ve entered a new season where the grace, oil, and unction on your life have moved. What worked before no longer carries the same power, and trying to operate in past mantles or rushing into things prematurely will leave you feeling frustrated, depleted, and under unnecessary warfare. When God’s anointing isn’t on something, it drains you instead of refreshing you. Constant frustration, irritation, and exhaustion are signs that you’re out of alignment. Instead of rushing into action, take time to sit with God and discern what He’s doing now. There is a new mantle, a new message, and a new assignment resting on you. Pour your energy into discovering it in His presence. When you wait on His clarity, you’ll stop operating in trial and error and begin to walk with precision. This is not the time for hurried decisions. The enemy is manufacturing false urgency to pressure you into creating something from the flesh, not the Spirit. But God is never in a rush. If peace isn’t present, neither is His hand. Don’t move until there is clarity. Don’t be seduced into birthing an Ishmael. Wait on the Lord. The second assignment is the attack of familiar voices. As you step into something new, the enemy often uses familiar people and old soul ties to try to gain access. These voices may come under the guise of concern or reconnection, but in reality, they are distractions. They pull at your time, energy, and focus, trying to insert themselves into what God is building in your life. This is the same spirit that came after Nehemiah through Sanballat. Sanballat didn’t want to reconnect; he wanted to tear down what was being built. Nehemiah responded with, “I am doing a great work and I cannot come down.” That must be your posture. The enemy is sending familiar spirits to break your focus and bait you into battles that aren’t yours. Not every voice from the past deserves a response. If you entertain the wrong conversations, you’ll lose momentum in your assignment. Guard your access points. Recognize the manipulation in disguise and don’t mistake surveillance for support. The third assignment is overload. The enemy wants to drain you by keeping you busy, overcommitted, and scattered. This includes saying yes to things outside your grace, getting caught in unnecessary drama, and pursuing good ideas instead of God’s instruction. We live in a world of nonstop information, social media, texts, videos, podcasts, and endless voices. Even spiritual content can become noise when consumed without discernment. This overexposure leads to confusion, decision fatigue, and spiritual numbness. If you don’t slow down and guard yourself, you’ll move out of intimacy with God. The enemy sends wild goose chases, gossip, and spiritual distractions to keep you exhausted and off-track. Guard your mental space right now. Protect your mind and what you feed on. Ask yourself, “What am I consuming that’s clouding my discernment?” If you’re feeling constantly tired, irritated, or foggy, it’s time to unplug and get still. The enemy knows that if he can slowly rob your peace, you’ll make a mistake. So, how do you avoid being drained by these assignments? Stay grounded in the secret place. Make time with God a daily priority. Wait for clarity before you move, and don’t let pressure push you. Discern God’s voice above the noise and set boundaries without apology. Protect your energy from old soul ties and manipulative conversations. Unplug. Stay focused on your assignment and don’t abandon your post for unnecessary battles. Learn to rest without guilt. Test every connection and make sure it brings peace, not confusion. If something pulls you away from clarity, it’s not from Him. And know you’re not crazy. Your job is to pause, discern, protect your oil, and stay aligned. He will take care of the rest.

GOD IS RECLAIMING & RESTARTING YOUR PROPHETIC TIMELINE!

By Nate Johnston • July 7, 2025
Ok, this is a word for those who have been dealing with years of narcissistic robbery.. One of the most pervasive demonic assignments I’ve ever witnessed in my own life and in the lives of many believers is the Jezebelic assignment. It’s been normalized across the body of Christ and in the world, often labeled as narcissism or seen only as a psychological disorder, rather than a spiritually rooted one. Because of this, people don’t know how to discern it, confront it, or evict it. It has become more than a spiritual stronghold. It’s become a culture. A way of living, responding, and relating that is deeply destructive. I grew up in this environment, and I would say 90% of the body of Christ has, too. Culture enforces it. Our world, in many ways, is systemically narcissistic. It has caused deep bondage and emotional wounds, even manifesting as mental and physical illness over time. Last week, as I was sharing prophetic words, going live, and praying over people, we saw many healings break out, especially last Thursday night on our Vision Live. I’m still in awe of what God did. But as I was praying and asking the Lord how He wanted me to address the Jezebelic element, I had a dream. In the dream, I saw a garden that looked completely dead. Roses that had once bloomed were now black, shriveled, and decayed. The whole garden was poisoned. In the middle of it was a deep pit, and out of that pit grew a short, ugly tree. Its roots spread underneath the entire garden. It reminded me of The Secret Garden, a movie I loved as a child. I knew immediately that the dream was from the Lord. He was showing me how the Jezebelic spirit has poisoned the gardens of many believers. It’s been at the center of our spiritual lives, hidden beneath the surface. We’ve tried to tend the garden around it, but we’ve never dealt with the root. Last week, I spoke about catching the foxes from Song of Songs. We manage our pain around this spirit, but now God is saying: Enough is enough. I’m pulling it out. As I continued to pray, the Lord brought me to the story of Naboth’s vineyard in 1 Kings 21. In this passage, Jezebel conspired to steal Naboth’s inheritance so she could give it to Ahab. But Naboth refused to sell. His name in Hebrew means “fruits” or “produce” and is closely tied to the idea of prophetic fruitfulness, legacy, and inheritance. In one translation, it represents “prophecies and words” Naboth’s vineyard is symbolic of the prophetic call, the anointing, the promises, and the inheritance God has placed on your life. But the Jezebel spirit is a thief. It will lie, manipulate, gaslight, and even kill to rob you of that vineyard. Just like in my dream, it seeks to plant toxic roots in the very soil that was meant to bear fruit. It poisons what was meant to be pure. This is exactly what has happened to so many believers. You’ve been fighting invisible warfare against something that’s been spiritual all along. And every time you try to confront it, in churches, in relationships, in ministries, you get gaslit. You’re made to feel like the problem, when in fact, the spirit that’s been tolerated is the real issue. But the Lord is saying now: I am taking the root out. I am exposing it, and I am evicting it. That’s why it’s uncomfortable. That’s why everything feels like it’s coming to the surface. That’s why your mind has been under siege. Because a false foundation is being torn out, so a holy one can be laid. Then I heard the Lord say something that hit me deeply, and I believe it will hit your spirit too: “As I uproot this spirit from your life, you will not only be healed in your mind. You will be made whole in your body, your finances, your marriage, your family, and your destiny. I’m not just healing you, I’m reordering your life from beginning to end. I am restarting your prophetic timeline.” Let me say that again: God is restarting your prophetic timeline. Imagine that dead garden in your life, the one you thought was beyond recovery. Now imagine the root being pulled out, light returning, and life beginning to flourish again. That garden represents your prophetic call, your purpose, your destiny, and the words spoken over you. The things that felt delayed, blocked, or stuck will begin to move. Where there’s been no favor, favor will flow. Where doors were shut, doors will now open. You will reclaim your vineyard. God says, “I am reclaiming you. This is a Jubilee moment in your life. I am demanding repayment of the robbery of the Jezebel spirit. Everything stolen must be returned. Your inheritance, your health, your time, your voice, your clarity, your legacy, it’s all being reclaimed. I am giving you back the vineyard that was stolen.” Now let me pray: In the mighty name of Jesus, I command every Jezebelic assignment, every generational stronghold that has taken root in your life, to be uprooted now. Be broken from your heart, your calling, your destiny, and your mind. Be uprooted in Jesus’ name. I decree Jubilee over you. The Jezebel spirit is being overthrown. The vineyard is being reclaimed. Your prophetic garden is coming alive again. The delay is over. Cycles are breaking, and the play button has been hit. Your prophetic timeline starts again today. And finally, I release this charge to you. This moment will require courage. It will require boundaries. You will be called to confront some relationships, environments, and mentalities that have tolerated the spirit God is removing. It’s time to say, “As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord, “ and walk in it. No more compromise. No more confusion. No more being stuck and your destiny on hold. Your vineyard is yours again in Jesus' name!

Be broken from your heart, your calling, your destiny, and your mind. Be uprooted in Jesus’ name. I decree Jubilee over you. The Jezebel spirit is being overthrown. The vineyard is being reclaimed. Your prophetic garden is coming alive again. The delay is over. Cycles are breaking, and the play button has been hit. Your prophetic timeline starts again today. And finally, I release this charge to you. This moment will require courage. It will require boundaries. You will be called to confront some relationships, environments, and mentalities that have tolerated the spirit God is removing. It’s time to say, “As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord, “ and walk in it. No more compromise. No more confusion. No more being stuck and your destiny on hold. Your vineyard is yours again in Jesus' name!

YOU ARE TAKING BACK GROUND!

This July 4th, I want to prophesy a word of freedom over you, a word that rattles and shakes every demonic assignment trying to oppress you and cling to you, especially in a time where God is calling you to come fully alive again. “Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.” 2 Corinthians 3:17 It’s time to be free. Fully free. Not half free. Not three-quarters free. But completely, radically, FREE! It’s no coincidence I’m sharing this on Independence Day, the day that commemorates the passage of the Declaration of Independence by Congress in 1776, announcing separation from Britain, because today, I have an announcement of my own. I declare and prophesy that from this moment forth, the real church will rise up and become independent from the spirit of religion and the kingdom of darkness that’s tried to keep her in bondage and the dark ages, when we are called to be a light in Jesus’ name! Now let me prophesy over you… I believe the enemy is losing ground right now. Those are the exact words I heard the Lord say earlier this year, and again just last week. “The enemy is losing ground!” And while for many it may not look this way, it’s already happening in your life, your family, your city, and even your nation. Most, if not all, of the warfare you’ve been facing isn’t some random occurrence. It’s been targeted. Why? Because God is bringing you into a delivery season. The war you’ve been experiencing is the effect of what God is doing to reclaim you, to set you up, to prepare you for what’s ahead while the enemy’s been doing everything he can to keep you caged. The enemy can see it. That’s why he’s been trying to decrease your borders, push you in from every side, and cause you to slowly retreat over time. But I believe we’re in a season where God is chasing out every single snake in your life not just from last year, or the last five years, but from many years past. He’s been dealing with every area of compromise, poison, sin, addiction, sabotaging mindsets, and the patterns that have robbed you over and over again. Many of us have cried out, “God, I don’t understand what is happening. I don’t understand why so much is coming against me. I don’t understand this warfare.” But it’s simple: The enemy doesn’t want you to step into fullness and wholeness. But God has sent a clear message to the enemy’s camp “He is mine. She is mine. BACK OFF!” Yes, God is reclaiming you and pushing back the darkness. But He’s also going one step further just like He did with Jabez. He is extending your borders. “Jabez cried out to the God of Israel, ‘Oh, that you would bless me and enlarge my territory! Let your hand be with me, and keep me from harm so that I will be free from pain.’ And God granted his request.” 1 Chronicles 4:10 Do you see what happened? Healing from pain and expansion! Bondage decreases you but freedom? It enlarges you. Yes, God is chasing out the snakes from your life right now. He’s dealing with the foxes. I believe the enemy is losing ground in physical spaces, emotional spaces, and spiritual spaces. He’s losing ground in your heart and mind, places where you didn’t know how to let go… where secret pain, wounds, trauma, depression, and bondage have long lingered. We are called to be the whole Church. But too many of us have been faking it just to make it. And now God is saying, How can you bring wholeness to the world if you don’t feel whole yourself? No more trying in your own strength. No more quick fixes that don’t deal with the roots. It’s time for REAL no hype freedom! So let me prophesy over you again - It’s time to take back ground. It’s time to chase out the foxes from the vineyard of your heart and life. (Song of Songs 2:15) It’s time to confront the things that have tormented and stalked you, because they are ending in this season. God is bringing you out of a chapter marked by struggle and survival. You are TAKING BACK GROUND in Jesus’ name!

THE BANDAID IS COMING OFF! WE ARE AT A GENERATIONAL DELIVERANCE THRESHOLD

By Nate Johnston • July 1, 2025
I have a few prophetic words that I need to release over the next few days that are all different parts of the same prophetic word that is burning in my spirit right now. Now, if you have spent your life waging war against dysfunction and spiritual mess from your upbringing and family, yet still feel like there are blockages and wounded areas in your life, this word is going to really hit home. I want to start with a very personal encounter I had once with God. I was in a season where I was experiencing mental bombardment and some unresolved torment in my mind, and I began really seeking the Lord and asking Him what the root of this issue was in my life. The Lord had been speaking to me for weeks before this encounter, telling me I was about to cross a threshold, another level of freedom and healing. Not just for my own peace and freedom, but because of something I was stepping into in the kingdom that required me to have a greater capacity of freedom and to be whole, not hindered by the things that I was dealing with. And I believe that’s where many of us are right now. Things are coming to the surface. Pain. Mindsets. Your soul in anguish. These are all the signs of this.. So at the height of the torment, I cried out to the Lord, begging Him to set me free. I went to sleep then woke up a few hours later hearing the Lord say, “The Band-Aid’s coming off.” There in the dark of my room, the presence of God swept in like I hadn’t felt in a long time. It enveloped me. I knew instantly the Lord was about to do something, so I said, “Lord, speak to me. What are you doing?” He said, “I want to show you something that’s been hanging over you your whole life, but you’ve not known. And you’ve actually been fighting this particular area of freedom.” “Ouch. What is it, Lord?” The Lord began to speak to me about my childhood and my upbringing. He said, “You’ve dealt with your mother’s side and the healing there, but you’ve never dealt with your father’s side.” You see, my dad left when I was four. He committed adultery, had another family in another city, and he chose them over me. It’s true, I had walked through a lot of healing and freedom from the things connected to my mother’s side, but I never really paid attention to what my father had done and how it had affected me. Exodus 20:5 says “For I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children to the third and fourth generations” So what I was experiencing was because I hadn’t dealt with this? The fruit/effects of my father’s sin - pain, adultery, and divorce had been hanging over me my whole life. I had never walked in the same weaknesses as my dad, but yet it was still there as a wound and a stumbling block of sorts in the background. But that doesn’t make sense, right? Aren’t we new creations in Christ? “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!” 2 Corinthians 5:17 Yes, we are. But there was pain and unforgiveness and things there that were tethering me to this dysfunction, tethering me to the fruit of that disobedience. Instantly, I heard the Lord say, “The breaking of covenant brings a curse.” “Wow.” He took me to Genesis. The breaking of covenant in the garden brought a curse: “To Adam he said, ‘Because you listened to your wife and ate fruit from the tree about which I commanded you, “You must not eat from it,” cursed is the ground because of you; through painful toil you will eat food from it all the days of your life” Genesis 3:17 But then He led me to Hebrews 12:24; “To Jesus the mediator of a new covenant, and to the sprinkled blood that speaks a better word than the blood of Abel.” He said, “I need you to forgive, renounce, and submit this under the blood.” So I sat there in the dark that night, and I renounced anything that had been trying to carry over into my life: the spirit of rejection, the orphan spirit, the spirit of poverty and lack, and anything perverse that had also come from it. I gave it to the Lord. I covered it in the blood. And I stepped into a level of freedom that has so deeply impacted my life ever since. What am I trying to say? I’m trying to say that right now, we’re in moments, not just one, but major moments where God is bringing massive trajectory changes and shifts, as we lean into these opportunities for deliverance and healing. I’ll be really real and please don’t be offended but let me say this - most of the Church is in bondage. Most of the Church needs deliverance. Most of the Church is struggling with torment and mental illness and yet FEW are saying it and doing anything about it! Hence why I am sharing this with you today. This is one of the epidemics we face in the Body. We know how to walk in the gifts. We know how to do all the things, but we’ve shoved down our soul health, our spiritual health, for the sake of looking good on a Sunday. Marriages are falling apart. Lives are falling apart. What if, right now, God is getting us free and whole so we can be a stable and firm Church, a pure Bride so that we can actually be the healers in this next season? What if this is we the recession of the waves before the tsunami of Gods glory hits and ushers in the harvest? What would happen if we stepped out to be labourers for the harvest, but our foundations were faulty? We would crumble and fall. Do you see the importance of the hour that’s in front of us and why it’s here? A THRESHOLD MOMENT After this encounter, the Lord led me to the passage about Jacob. He was about to cross over the brook Jabbok and wrestle with the angel of the Lord and become Israel, but something else happened first. His brother Esau who he had deceived years earlier, was coming to meet him. Jacob had carried the burden and the pain of that situation his whole life and then, in a moment, God brought it to head before he crossed over. What if we’re in a moment right now where God is bringing generational deliverance to you and me? What if He’s clearing our names and putting the axe to the roots of things we didn’t even realize were trying to hang over us? These things shouldn’t be hanging over us. The blood of Jesus speaks a better word. But we’ve been resisting it. We want to be free but we also want to keep our pain. We want to be whole but we also want to keep our vendettas and our victimhood. We want to be free but we just don’t know how to step out of the habits and dysfunctions we grew up in. But those days are over. God is saying over you today that He wants to bring lasting and full wholeness and freedom to you. If this word resonated with you, I want you to ask the Lord to come and heal you. Ask Him to bring deliverance to those areas of your life, even as you’re reading this. Ask Him to show you the root. In fact, if you are feeling the Holy Spirit working right now, put on a worship track and sit in this for a moment and ask Him, “Show me what I need to uncovenant from.” Right now, God is exposing the roots and showing us what’s been wrong so we can get it fixed. Body of Christ, it’s time to step out of that mixture of covenants and be covenanted to Jesus for the days to come. Pray with me, “Jesus, you are the Lord and Saviour of my life, and right now I un-covenant with anything unholy. I un-covenant with the sins of my father and mother and generations before me. I uncovenant with pain, with victimhood, with witchcraft, divination, and anything in my past. And I covenant with you today. I step into a fresh relationship with you for the sake of me, my wife, my husband, my kids, and my family. I give you permission to guide and lead my life. I step out of the driver’s seat. Come and do what you want to do. Make me whole, in body, in mind, in spirit. In Jesus’ name! Now let me prophesy over you, it’s time to exit generational bondage and enter generational INHERITANCE in Jesus' name! Instead of bondage, you are entering freedom and being yoked only to Jesus. Instead of mental instability, you will have the mind of Christ! Instead of poverty and lack, you will walk in abundance and be a resource to build the Kingdom! Instead of failure and breakdown, you will flourish in everything you do and build healthily! Instead of spending your days battling demons oppressing your mind, you will set others free! The threshold is here!  Get ready for part 2 coming in the next few days.
