PIONEERS & NOMADIC FORERUNNERS, YOUR FAITH ODYSSEY IS ABOUT TO MAKE SENSE!

PIONEERS & NOMADIC FORERUNNERS, YOUR FAITH ODYSSEY IS ABOUT TO MAKE SENSE!

I was in worship when I felt the Spirit of God come upon me ferociously like the response of heaven intervening in the middle of what looked like the summit many people’s crisis’ and personal battle. 

Wondering who I was feeling this for I then saw a huge multi-lane highway with many cars traveling upon it. I instantly knew these were the pioneers, the nomads, and forerunners of this season who stepped out of their comfort zone to follow Gods leading. 

A THREE YEAR WINDOW

As I saw the cars I felt like I was peering into a timeline where for these pioneers the call had Intensified and become very real, the steps costly, the risk tangible, and the movement forward into the unknown life-changing. 

I saw a calendar before me and I saw the long journeys many had embarked on but I heard “3 years” and knew this 3 years from 2018 to now was where the call had become very real and the faith steps became more like faith jumps and a series of faith jumps ever since. 

What I sensed was that this three year period of time was like a pressure cooker, full of trial and errors, giants in the land, testing, strength training, and feeling no closer to the finish line than when they started. 

These pioneers had lived a lifestyle of faith jumps for this time without any respite or break from the journey of extreme risk and had laid down everything for the Lord and now in 2021 had come to a place of tension. A place where either they are either broken and dashed or they experience breakthrough. 

Many started out with wonder, an excitement, and adventure but instead of supernatural outcomes and fulfillment had been experiencing delays, loss, hope deferred, and closed doors. 

Then I saw the months of March - July and how in these months there was a boiling point that had been reached in the spirit full of even further increased hardship, stops signs, and the overwhelming pressure to give up. Then I heard the Lord speak;

“I AM GIVING EYES TO SEE!”

“Do you see this season for what it really is? Can you look you the smoke and fog to see what is really unfolding?” 

“Do you see the door of hope or the door of death and finality?”

“Do you see the tension and pain or the birthing that is happening?”

“Right now I am releasing eyes of faith to see this moment the way I see it so that those pursuing the uncommon promise do not lose hope!”

“Brothers and sisters, we do not want you to be uninformed about those who sleep in death, so that you do not grieve like the rest of mankind, who have no hope” 1 Thessalonians 4:13

IN THE BOTTLENECK OF BREAKTHROUGH

The reality is we are in a moment of extreme tension right now between the hopelessness and hope deferred the enemy is wanting you to buy into and the fresh hope God is revealing. 

We are in the tension of the battle that we see raging around us and the promise of God and it’s fulfillment. 

We are in the place of extreme contention where the warfare seems to have increased because delivery is just around the corner! 

This is the bottleneck of breakthrough. It’s where everything you have been standing for and all the pieces of transition seem to converge into one moment of time. We are in that moment. Do you have your eyes fixed on the breakthrough or the pressure? 

THE SEED DYING & THE CLOSURE

The other tension of this moment for pioneers is that we are in the difficult process of “Unless a seed falls to the ground and dies”(John 12:24) where many have been experiencing the pain of the death of what didn’t come and what didn’t work out.

You have been experiencing the grief of what has felt like a death to dreams and promises because they have been delayed and the waiting season has been crushing. 

It’s felt like a season of burying and laying to rest personal promises and things that you never imagined you would have to say goodbye to. 

It’s been a time of your heart having to reconcile areas of closure that you have been trying to hold on to and surrendering deep places of devastation to God that you have been soul-sick over. 

But you have only seen the end but not the new beginning. You have only felt the pain of letting go of the difficult road and the not the glorious revealing about to take place. 

Now watch what begins to come up from the ground, from the place of death, from your place of painful grief and loss. Watch what God brings back to life. Watch what He does through your surrender. 

This is not the end pioneers but a transfer checkpoint in the road where you must lay down the pain, the questions, the grief, trauma, and burdens you have been carrying. They must fall to the ground. 

ITS A FOUR WINDS RESURRECTION MOMENT

Many have said in this season “After everything I have done it still looks lost” but there is something coming that you can’t orchestrate or have anticipated. 

You’ve done what you can do now this is where you watch God do what only He can do. You tried everything to keep that old thing alive and  breathe life into dry bones but to no avail. 

Now watch as the four winds of God blows upon your life, cleansing you, healing you, and resurrects something brand new. 

You will realize that the death to the seed was needed so that the new life could come forth and the burying of the old had to be done so that something new could emerge. 

THE SEED MULTIPLIED & THE GREAT RESTORATION

Then I heard the Lord say “Now it’s time to MULTIPLY!” and I realized that the seed dying was for the purpose of the harvest that had to come. The blessing God wanted to pour out was in the ending to what had limitations upon it. 

This is where you see what you faithfully stewarded suddenly multiply and increase right before you. This is where you see what you surrendered turn into something you couldn’t have imagined and your small mustard seeds of faith to follow Gods leading become sturdy trees in the nations. This is where what looks hopeless and lost and dead suddenly begins to blossom and bloom into something beyond what you could have ever envisioned. 

You may not see it and you may not be able to see how but God is going to use what has come against you to multiply you. The words and accusations, judgements, and slander are being shut down and buried and in their place God is springing forth redemption and favor you couldn’t have imagined. 

“Will I not vindicate the road behind you?” says the Lord. “Will I not restore what the locust ate, what was robbed from you, and deal with  injustice? For right now now I am bringing restoration to your house!”

I hear for some that this is your “do over” season. Where the enemy said you failed and threw shame at you - you are going to be given a blank slate and a pen to write this new day with the Lord, clutter free, shame free, and with hope for the future again. 

It’s an hour of consecration where the battle worn and weary, the ones who have been through hellfire and storms are running to the altar for fresh oil and for resurrection life to revive them from the long road they have walked and the rescue them from the clutches of breakdown and death the enemy prescribed them. No this is not that day. This is not the end. This is your new beginning in Jesus name! 

A HALLMARK OF FAITH MOMENT 

Then I heard the Lord say “This is a hallmark of faith moment” but I didn’t know what that meant. A hallmark is a stamp marking somethings genuine properties of purity and many have been through a season of blind faith and obedience and God is stamping them with His hallmark.

The hallmark is the branding of heaven upon Gods faithful who have been through the refiners fire and through the valley of darkness. It’s the mark of those who have navigated never ending wildernesses, loss, isolation, persecution, and pressed on despite only seeing the opposite of the promise they had believed for. 

This is a moment that I believe all of heaven is celebrating those who have continued to press through for their families even though the journey has been rough and unforgiving and it’s a moment of graduation and transition from believing to seeing and from pursuing to beholding. 

THE FULLNESS OF FAITH - YOU ARE GOING TO SEE IT WITH YOUR OWN EYES! 

Hebrews 11 is known as “The hall of faith” because it speaks of the heroes, the pioneers, and forerunners that have gone before us. They were the ones that moved, migrated, and left all on a word from the Lord and God calls them the heroes of faith. 

"Faith motivated Abraham to obey God’s call and leave the familiar to discover the territory he was destined to inherit from God. So he left with only a promise and without even knowing ahead of time where he was going, Abraham stepped out in faith. He lived by faith as an immigrant in his promised land as though it belonged to someone else. He journeyed through the land living in tents with Isaac and Jacob who were persuaded that they were also co-heirs of the same promise. His eyes of faith were set on the city[h] with unshakable foundations, whose architect and builder is God himself. Sarah’s faith embraced God’s miracle power to conceive even though she was barren and was past the age of childbearing, for the authority of her faith[i] rested in the One who made the promise, and she tapped into his faithfulness" Hebrews 11:8-11

What has been stirred in my spirit for the pioneers in this pinnacle moment is that you are about to SEE the fulfillment with your own eyes! People have called you foolish and stupid for holding on beyond hope but why do you hold on? Because God has deposited a rare quality in you, a stubborn faith that can’t be moved even in times when you wanted it to, and now you will see it established! Read what HeBrews 11:40 says;

“But now God has invited us to live in something better than what they had—faith’s fullness! This is so that they could be brought to finished perfection alongside of us”

MIGRATING PIONEERS, THE WAY IS GOING TO APPEAR

I saw that the rest of the year was going to be a shifting time for the pioneers. 

There are held up outcomes and decisions that will be released in this time and Pivotal decision making revelation and insight that will come that is necessary to know how to move and when to move. 

There will be the final release of delayed legalities and red tape that will be unlocked and there will be loopholes and ways to move forward in areas that have looked shut. 

The convergence of hardship and promise simultaneously is going to produce not just a new beginning and way forward but a breakthrough that is going to be like a sonic boom that clears the air and settles the road behind you. 

These months will be very important shifting months for those who are still living up in the air and haven't known where to settle and to plant. 

Nomads and wanderers buckle up just a little longer because all your transition has not been in vain but this is the time that for all your moving around and back and forth God is going to lead you to the land that you will be able to put down roots. In the next few months give him the frustration of not belonging and the pain of feeling not grounded in this process because you are being led to your Nexus. 

This is the place where everything you have been stewarding will begin to unfold and be built. 

The warfare against you in this convergence moment is to cause you to shut down instead of pursuing the final stages of this grand adventure with God. But resist it! Keep moving forward! 

This is where migration begins to increase because God is moving you into position for this phase of your journey. 

This is where God opens the way where if feels like there has been no way forward and no clarity and direction. 

Even right now as you are reading this i pray for maps to open in the spirit and for you to see what you have been too clouded to see. I pray that you would suddenly receive GPS navigation to this place God has been preparing for you. 

MOVEMENTS MULTIPLYING & NEXT LEVEL VISION PLANS 

In the months to come God is going to stir you in a way you haven’t felt in years. It will feel like a river is beginning to swell and break the banks of your heart and you won’t be able to contain it. 

It will be like a fresh mighty wave building on the inside of you that you cannot hold back or hide. It’s the wave of the spirit of God that He gave you at the beginning of this journey to run with. Once just a tiny swell now through agitation and the process has become a formidable force for the kingdom. 

It’s your movement. Maybe small and insignificant at first but it’s building and something has shifted in the battle. Your movement has multiplied too and soon you will see it impact the earth publicly and globally and go beyond what you could have done with it. 

Your raw faith steps have produced this. Following Jesus has created this. 

You said yes and He poured out the bowls of heaven upon it and now you will see what has looked hidden and foolish to the world become a mighty giant for the kingdom of heaven. 

Your movement is about to MULTIPLY.. 

Even now God us downloading new plans, fresh vision for it, and establishing connections and pathways you couldn’t have orchestrated. Soon it is going to burst the banks and you’ll need to know what to do with it because God knows He can trust you with it. 

Like a puzzle God is using you as a major player and piece for this time of history and for the harvest at hand. Soon you and others will see the full picture and measure of what this looks like. 

You once moved with it obediently but you are about to move with it strategically. You once saw it as an overflow of your worship but soon you will see that your worship has created an apostolic movement that is going to impact nations. 

Get ready for fresh downloads and visions that will confront the outdated methods and starting to expire ways you are operating. God is giving you the building plans to the next 5 years and vision that will require another huge jump of faith to step into it. But it’s already in you and God has already cleared the way. 

Pioneers this is what you were born for. You aren’t alone. Keep trekking forward because your life will be a sign and a wonder of Gods goodness to all who see

A WORD FOR MY EAGLES - WE ARE IN THE TURNING OF THE TIDE

By Nate Johnston • 16 Apr, 2024
(The Lord gave me this word a week before we had our first gathering in Colorado Springs on March 31st 2024) I heard the lord say, “The eagles have been looking for a place to gather and have found none." Alone in their nests. Hidden in crooks and caves they have felt restless and looking for their people. A company who aren’t about building the next empire or setting the next exclusive table of elite celebrity Christians, but a people with no agenda but Jesus. But they have been nomads and vagabonds, looking at their wings molting and feeling like their greatest days were behind them. But the lord says “My eagles, now is the time to gather! For your Lone Ranger days are over. Your days of longing for the new wine and not seeing it are over” In exchange for your hunger and desperation I am giving you what you have been longing for. I am now gathering my eagles in their nests across the globe and they will experience my latter glory says the Lord. For I have marked you as my new breed. A set apart people created for this kairos moment. To lead the charge at the turning of the the tide. Many have said “What is the point? Our nation and nations have decided their fate!” And the lord would say “Josiah generation rise up. Esther generation rise up!” For I am raising up new kings and deposing bad stewards!” (Daniel 2:21-22) You are the kings I am raising up for this hour. My remnant who I have reserved who have not bowed their knee to Baal. You are here at the turning of a tide because I have anointed you to lead the church into the new You have said “We are done with the old manna!” We are done with compromise and mixture and culture telling us what we can and can’t do and can and cannot say. "We are the voice of the one crying in the wilderness. Prepare ye the way of the lord!” You are the ones that won’t bow, won’t relent, and wont hide in caves anymore. You thought your flame had burned out after years of going through valley after valley and battle after battle and dark night after dark night but you have only grown in the dark. You have only increased. In the dirt you died and now the Lord says “In this moment I am now anointing you fresh for this hour of mighty exploits!” “I am mantling you with the double portion of my spirit to rise up as my pure mouthpieces, to confront the compromise and mixture in the current house, and build the new.” You will dethrone kings and evict principalities. You will tear down ideologies and lies cast like a veil of blindness over the nations. And you will see my righteousness exalted over this nation and you will establish my kingdom. So stop running and stop hiding. You are here because you can’t do the old thing anymore. “In fact, this is a moment that you must lay down the last remnants of the old season. It’s time to be emptied so I can fill you, mantle you, and robe you for the days to come” My eagles now is your time. For even now I am breaking the assignments of frustration and chaos that have been sent against you and your family. Fires that have erupted over the years to keep you grounded in a season I have called you to fly, to soar and hear what I am saying. This is a new day and the turning of the tide. “Now!” The Lord says; “Get ready for the new epoch - a season of the diminishing of man’s systems and empires and the era of the remnant. It is now upon you!” We are in the hour of the convocation of eagles and the gathering of those who seek only my face and nothing added. Then I heard the lord say “You have only been in the birth pangs up until now but get ready because the birthing is coming” It is the birthing of my pure and spotless bride that will emerge and set things right. “So my eagles, it’s time to go from flying solo to gathering.” “Where the spirit of the Lord is there is freedom and where my people are in unity together as one voice there is an anointing that looses chains of wickedness and bandage.” For just as there was a purpose to the prophets in Elijah’s day being hidden, there has been a purpose to your season of hiddenness. But that hour is over.” “I am calling you forth and unravelling you from the bonds of the past battles.” “I am breaking off the deeply embedded weariness and trauma that has been sitting like a poison in your soul.” “Like a demonic fatigue it has rested on you and stolen your strength and vision, but NOW you shall rise up on eagles wings again and walk and not faint!” “For how can you fly without strength? And know where to fly without my direction?” “This is why I have responded to your cries and have answered.” This is the turning of the tide that has been against you. This is where I rebuild you. Restore you. Rejuvenate you. Resurrect you. “And set you loose for your next season of flight” Yes the tide has turned. Don’t believe the reports. The tide has turned. “Let it be remembered that at this crossover I strategically had you emerge and soar that the voice of my church would once more crash the chatter of the airwaves and lead my church forward.” Let it be remembered that at the turning of the tide I raised up a remnant of a different dna and cloth that would be the new standard of the new day I am leading them into. And I am right now shaking up the lone nests of the burned out and isolated. Now it’s time to find the eagles and set the table for the convocation. “Yes, once there was only few but now you are many. Once on the fringe now you are coming back to the center again." There has been a great exodus from man made places of bondage but now you have been assigned to be a safe place for those seeking refuge and needing to be rebuilt. “For I am bringing my church back to the book of acts once again and clearing her heart of the idols of her own making.” “So break out of the restraints that have held you, the fears that have shut you down, and the defeat that has choked you, and take fight for the greatest chapter of your life and odyssey with me!” Says the Lord."

IGNORE THE DRAMA & BUILD/BIRTH

By Nate Johnston • 09 Apr, 2024
I hear the Lord saying “Come up higher this week out of the swirl and drama being stirred up, for it is a distraction from what is coming” As He says this I see many whirlwinds swirling in the spirit then I hear; “The propaganda of the enemy has brought confusion and fear over the times but this week I am clearing the air!” “For I am exposing the enemies agenda to bring shipwreck to my people by bombarding them over and over with defeat and hopelessness” “This week the mental warfare against them must come to an end!” “And they will rise up higher and see clearly again” “And they will see what is true and what is false, what is swirl and what is peace, and what is my heart and what is the enemies games” “And I will lead them out of the endless drama and counterfeit missions and back into alignment with my heart again” “For there is a divine convergence moment coming upon the church where REVELATION meets MANIFESTATION” “It’s a moment where your journals of dreams and insight become the navigational manual for the days to come” “And you no longer just speak about where I am leading the church, but you will lead them” “And you will finally build what you have only dreamed about for years” “But can you see? The enemy does not want you to step into this fulfillment moment but wants you to go around the mountain again. “His slight of hand trick is right now distracting many from what is coming. Can you see it?” “The slander coming at you is a trick” “The opposition against your voice and mission is a trick” “The fires to put out and the sudden chaos is a trick. Can you see it?” “Keep your eyes fixed on me! Don’t lose your peace! Don’t be pulled to the right or to the left” “Push and birth this with me! You are in the final stages of a long pioneering journey and I want you to experience the joy of delivery” “It’s a moment of hopeful fulfilled for my church who have been lost in the process and heavy laden pregnancy” “But now it’s a birthing and building season” “So this week, ignore the drama, silence the fear, and build and birth with me” “fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before him he endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God” Hebrews 12:2

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

By Nate Johnston • 02 Apr, 2024
I had an audible dream last night where Father God spoke to me in a heart-to-heart way. I woke up and wrote down what I remembered and I knew this was a letter to all of us, an encouragement for making it through a long season, and a re-focus for the months to come. I pray this speaks directly to your heart and draws you into even deeper dialogue with Him this month. “WELL DONE FOR ENDURING THE PROCESS” Firstly I heard Him say “Well done. Well done for enduring the process I have taken you through even though at times it has felt more than you could handle. Well done for allowing my purifying fire to come into every facet of your life. It was never meant to expose you but to remove every contaminate that would trip you up down the road. Well done, I am so proud of you! I have been on a mission to bring you out of the dark ages of your faith where constant trials were sent to overwhelm you and steal your heart from me, but they didn’t succeed. I saw all the other affections and I’m a jealous God. I saw all the other distractions looking for a way into your world. I saw all the arrows of the enemy wanting to pierce you in the back and steal you from me and I knew I needed to alter the course of your life to finally bring you into the fullness you kept asking me for. Well done for clinging to me even when you doubted my methods. Well done for worshipping me in the waiting” “HAVE YOU FORGOTTEN WHAT HOPE FULFILLED LOOKS LIKE?” “My goodness never left you. It never waned even for a moment. I didn’t leave you or abandon you. But I saw you at times walking around defeated and lost, somehow convinced that hopelessness would always be a part of your life, believing that loss and settling for second best is the best life you can hope for. What happened? Have you forgotten what hope fulfilled looks like? Has it been so long? This month I am going to pull you out of defeat and seat you at the table. I am going to cause every root of hopelessness to be outnumbered by new springs of hope. I am going to remind and restore what you lost in the long road and process to where you are so you quit thinking that I don’t live up to what I promise. I DO NOT LIE, and you are about to be reminded that my promises for you are yes and amen. I’m removing the tiredness from your heart where you felt this was all on you. I am healing your heart from the toll the warfare and opposition had on you. I am taking away the slumber that kept tempting you to sleep away the season, and I am giving you back your strength and you will remember what it is to laugh and be genuinely happy and fulfilled. I will restore you and give you REST, so rest in me and watch what I do for you” “LOOK WHAT WE HAVE BUILT TOGETHER!” Then I heard Him say “Look what we built together! Can you see it! Can you see the beauty through all of the mess you have had surrounding you? It’s time to stop beating yourself up for how you have perceived you have navigated this difficult time and begin to celebrate that you have made it through some of life’s greatest obstacles and defeated the most intimidating giants. You stood well. You fought well. You have continued to hope even despite not seeing immediate change. Even when you only saw delay and discouragement crouched at your door. Now LOOK and see what we have built together. In the next month, you are going to see the fresh buds of life come from the most unexpected places and fruit where you never realized were producing for you. Seeds you have sown that died, DREAMS you once had are NOW going to be resurrected but with interest!” (When I woke up from this dream it was 4:20 am and I knew God was even speaking through that) “But the seed sown on good soil represents those who open their hearts to receive the Word and their lives bear good fruit—some yield a harvest of thirty, sixty, even one hundred times more than was sown!” Mark 4:20 “TAKE A LOOK AROUND, YOU ARE NOT WHERE YOU WERE!” “In the shaking, you have been fully awoken. In the wilderness and greatest battle of your life, you have been anointed with my oil. Yes, that’s right. I know it’s not what you expected. It’s not the destiny-package you were hoping for but you haven’t even seen the pages of your book yet to come. You have been stuck on the moment you are in and haven’t measured this transition next to eternity, but let me tell you, you haven’t just survived, you have been revived! It may not look like it yet but one day soon you will realize that this season of shaking was your set up, your preparation, your making! The enemy intended it to be your undoing but it didn’t work! Instead, it was your consecration, your knighting, your commissioning, and coronation. Now take a look around and see that you are not where you used to be. I have removed you from so many vices that once entangled you. I have loosed you from the places that kept you bound. Apathy and complacency are no longer suffocating the life out of you and you are no longer in a place of limitation. Can you see the wide-open space before you? Prepare your heart for this” “THIS YEAR YOU’LL KNOW ME AS PROVIDER & SUPPLIER!” “Stop asking for the scraps from under the table,” He said. “I want you to know my heart for you in this season regarding your finances and resources. You need to be fully and intimately acquainted with my goodness over your life and know that I not only desire for you to be looked after but I need you to grow in this area so I can grow you into the territory I have given you. You can’t keep having a poverty mindset when I’ve called you to the land of milk and honey. There are nations that need to be discipled and cities that need to be reached but if you keep not expecting me to provide for the vision that I gave you, how will the kingdom be released? This is a month that I am going to stretch you to believe beyond what you have before. I am calling you to ENLARGE and stretch out wider. Your vision has to get much bigger than it has been. I am breaking the survival mentality off the church and healing the wounds of lack of integrity and fear of failure. This will be a year you know me as provider and supplier. So ask me, what do you need? What does the destiny I have placed in you require? Dream with me again. Go back to the drawing board and believe beyond where you have and don’t stop til what you envision looks impossible. I am serving justice upon the assignments that have come to continually rob your bread and seed and caused my people to retreat. No, you will now advance and plant, move out of lack and into more than enough!” “PIONEER AGAIN WITH ME” It is time to finally move on from this place. It has served its purpose, but now the scenery must change just like everything else has. You mustn’t think your whole existence will be in the trenches. You are called to a war but that doesn’t mean you are meant to live in the valley of the shadow of death, no, I have been teaching you how to come up out of that place and live higher. I have been calling you up into new ways of viewing all that opposes you so you aren’t surrendering to the wrong thing. So now you are moving on from this place and we are going on a brand new adventure together. There will be many unknowns and many new roads we forge but you will find your passion again and know I am running with you. It will keep requiring courage and letting go of doing things how you once did, but it will be full of so much joy. Yes, the pages of history are before us and we are going to write them together. Will you join me? “Yet I totally trust you to rescue me one more time, so that I can see once again how good you are while I’m still alive!” Psalms 27:13 “Surely your goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever” Psalm 23:6

THE BLOOD SPEAKS A BETTER WORD!

By Nate Johnston • 31 Mar, 2024
I woke up this morning in intercession over many who have been given a bad report in the last 3 - 6 months. Whether it’s a bad health report, financial situation, issues in your family/marriage, or spiritually you just feel like you are in bondage and the lies and bad reports of the enemy are broadcasting daily of your life. Today I want to come into agreement in faith that whatever assignment the enemy has released over you, the demonic decree or failure and shipwreck, the word of hopelessness and defeat, and the bad and bleak report MUST BOW TO THE BLOOD OF THE LAMB! A few weeks ago we shared that we were going to hold a gathering in Colorado Springs. That same night I shared it I went into a powerful dream. I the dream I'm in a church building and the blood of Jesus is flowing down the altar and people are running desperately to get the blood. As they run to the blood, they begin getting delivered. They're getting set free. They're getting healed, and they're coming up completely new and whole. I knew the Lord was telling me two things; This is what we were going to see that night (and we did! Link in the email) We were in a time when the revelation of the blood of Jesus and the finished work of the cross was going to bring a SHIFT back to the church. You see, you and I have been through some battles the last few years and it’s easy to begin to forget the power of Jesus to turn impossible situations around. We almost begin to tolerate and normalize the enemy’s plans because we get tired. We get so disillusioned and weary that we stop fighting and begin to believe the bad news surrounding us. Right? But…. THE BLOOD SPEAKS A BETTER WORD! At the wedding at Cana when the old wine ran out, Jesus turned water into wine and served the best last! What if we were in the days of seeing the power of the Blood revolutionize the earth and raise Gods people to new life, hope, and power that shifts everything around us? It's the forgotten weapon that the church has forsaken and this Resurrection Sunday I feel strongly the Lord saying” Let my blood turn around what you are facing!” Many of you today are feeling bound. Many of you come feeling shackled. Many of you feel stuck and tormented by the bad report. But today - the bad report must now in Jesus' name! Are you in agreement with me? “To Jesus the mediator of a new covenant, and to the sprinkled blood that speaks a better word than the blood of Abel”Hebrews 12:24 Today we felt to simply pray with you that the blood of Jesus would break the bad report. I feel like it’s a moment where the Lord wants to re-covenant with you and break all other covenants you may be in that is bringing you bondage. The lies you have agreed with. The condemnation screaming at you. Whatever word swirl and storm you are in today must be cleared by the power of the blood! So as you read this take communion and behold Jesus. Do it on your own, or with your family. Lay down everything that you have been in bondage to. Every lie, addiction, and issue. Lay down the bad report.. and come into agreement with the victory of the blood of Jesus and the finished work. And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony, and they loved not their lives unto the death. Rev 12:11 We decree today “IT IS FINISHED” over your life. Every plan of the enemy to take you out and rob you no longer have any power in Jesus' name! Addictions are breaking off your life. Loss and calamity are breaking. Religious holds are breaking Jezebelic muzzles and holds are breaking. Sickness, disease, and death is breaking. The war against your home is breaking. The war against your finances are breaking.. IN JESUS NAME! This resurrection Sunday we pray that you would feel the deepest, richest peace you have felt in years as you step out of the demonic decree that has been hanging over you and enter the fresh hope and amazing future God has for you In Jesus name!
