PIONEERS, YOU ARE IN THE TRANSITION OF "VISION RESET"

PIONEERS, YOU ARE IN THE TRANSITION OF "VISION RESET"

PIONEERS, YOU ARE IN THE TRANSITION OF "VISION RESET"

I have a word for you this week. The Lord says;


“You are in a vision reset right now. That's why I'm beginning to highlight the areas in your life that have been crowding out my voice. I've been highlighting the things in your life that have been contaminants, flies in the ointment, stopping you from seeing clearly the path, the plan, and the purpose that I have for you”


“For the last 4 years, you've been through much. You've weathered many storms. You've been through many difficult situations and dark nights of the soul. You've had many people in your ear that have brought DI-VISION and have thwarted my vision for your life. Right now, I am exposing all areas that have taken you off the path and off the trajectory of your purpose”


“That is why, right now, you suddenly feel a discontent for the things you've been doing, even for some in the locations they've been doing them. That's why you've felt sudden discernment and red flags become stronger regarding certain people, alignments, and even mission. I know it's unsettling. I know it makes you feel lost. I know it makes you feel like you've detoured, but right now, I'm correcting your path”


“Yes, in many ways, you'll have to look and realize there have been some Ishmaels, and there have been some places you've walked that I never called you to, and even people I never called you to. But do not fear and do not fret, and remove the condemnation, because I’m leading you back on track, says the Lord”


“I'm bringing you back in alignment with the pure vision that I placed upon your life. This is a full circle moment where I bring you back to the place of your original purpose, back to the original dream, back to the original vision, back to the place where you come alive again”


“Have you wondered why in the last 4 years it has felt like you lost your fire? You wondered why it feels like you've been toiling in vain, seeing no results and seeing no fruit for the plan that I have for you? It is because your vision has been tainted. Your vision has been contaminated. This has been the subtle plan of the enemy to get you off track and to burn you out”


“Yes, weary pioneers. I'm speaking to you right now. This is the reason you've been weary, because you've been spreading yourself thin in areas that you've had no grace or anointing to operate in. There are even many that are in roles that I've not authorized them for. There's no grace and anointing for the things that I've not authorized you for, and you've burnt yourself out”


“It has led many to a place of wanting to give up and run. But right now, I'm delivering you from the weariness and the burnout by leading you back to the purity of your vision. Leading you back to the purity of the original dream that I gave you, that makes you come alive again. It's going to feel like there are doors closing. It's going to feel like suddenly I uproot your heart from places that you have wanted to be secured in”


“It's going to feel like suddenly I give you an unction to leave some of the circles and the rooms that you've been a part of. But it is not to rob you, but to free you, to bring you back to the place where you come alive and where you and I co-labor again with the pure vision that I've given you”


“After the cross, Peter was lost and he went back to fishing because he was looking to find me. It was the place of his original encounter that his heart was longing for. And many right now are looking at going back as defeat. They're looking at it as a robbery, but it is going to be what ignites your original vision. It's going to be what brings you back to the place of experiencing my presence and my glory in a way that you've not known these last 4 years”


“For you've only known depletion and burnout, and you've forgotten what it feels like to linger in my presence. You've forgotten what it feels like to burn with delight as my glory rests upon you, and you feel your womb shaking and trembling under the weight of my presence and my glory. But now you're coming back to that place, says the Lord. For I've not called you to be an intellectual Christian. I've not called you to be a Christian that operates by their emotions and their feelings”


“I've called you to be a revivalist to the nations. And in this hour, I'm reigniting the original call and plan I had upon your life where I marked you in the secret place. I'm going to brand you afresh, says the Lord. I'm going to remind you of the words, the promises I gave you in that original encounter. I'm bringing you back to the place to reset your vision, reset your life back on track, to free you of burnout, and deliver you of every thumbprint and every bit of ownership that's been trying to rob you of your destiny or purpose”


“I'm removing you from under the ceilings that you've been under, and I'm bringing you back into the wide-open space of my glory again, where you will see my kingdom. You will see what I'm doing in the earth that is untainted by the religion of man. I'm bringing you out from under the yokes of religion and the empires that have been trying to lord it over you for a long time. Yes, I'm bringing you back into a place of vision and dreaming with me again”


“So get ready, pioneers, for I've already begun this work. I've already begun to lift the load, but the things that are coming to the surface of your soul are only to free you. I'm going to cause things to align in your life that don't make sense at first, but you'll see that it is I who is restoring you back to the purity and simplicity of relationship with me and the burning call for the nations”

SOMEONE NEEDS TO HEAR THIS TODAY—TURN THE PAGE!

By Nate Johnston • May 27, 2025
Let go. Don’t get stuck because you can’t move on without the closure of answers to why things landed the way they did. Why things fell apart and why you were left holding the broken fragments of a dream you felt God led you to. Why you were attacked so relentlessly and lost so much. Why you were shipwrecked, slandered, and feel like you have only gone backwards not forwards. I know it’s cost you everything and you don’t see what it produced yet, but unless you turn the page it won’t allow God to connect the dots and reshuffle the pages that right now feel out of order. For isn’t he the orchestrator of your life? He knows what those dark nights produced even when you didn’t. He knows what those seasons were for even though right now all you see when you look behind is dead ends and wild goose chases. But unless you turn the page you’ll never get to see the rest of the story and see Him connect all the seasons like poetry. Yes, even the hard and most painful moments He has a way of turning around if you’ll let Him. So how do you do that today? Give up. It’s where you choose to close the chapter by giving Him the pieces and questions. It’s a faith thing and the deepest surrender when it feels unjust and you don’t understand. And I know many reading this feel bottled up with grief, but today refuse to keep rehearsing or trying to do this in your own strength. The floor is the only way forward and there’s a brand new chapter waiting to unfold. It’s a call to trust. To believe that even what you can’t understand has been seen, measured, and held by a God who doesn’t waste pain. But you have been living in a chapter that ended a long time ago. The ink dried, the door closed, but your heart stayed behind trying to rewrite what already happened. Let that go. The new is already here waiting for you to choose it over the tired tape of the past you have been watching. It’s here to show you that there’s so much more ahead for you than you knew. It’s waiting to breathe life into your lungs and bring clarity and vision after the fog. So turn the page, not because you understand but because you are choosing to trust the one who’s writing it. And watch what He does with the blank space. 

DON'T MISS YOUR BURNING BUSH SEASON

By Nate Johnston • May 27, 2025
As we start this week, I have a word for many out there: Don’t miss your burning bush season. Or maybe I should say, don’t overlook your burning bush season. Don’t miss it. We often look at seasons where things don’t add up or make sense and diagnose them as seasons of waiting, seasons we’re just trying to survive until we get to the next destination, the next stop. We don’t always see the richness of what God is depositing in each season. In the last few days, I keep hearing this: Don’t miss your burning bush season. Remember the story of Moses? He was tending his father-in-law’s sheep in the wilderness when he saw the burning bush. He was simply doing his job, satisfied in it when suddenly, there was an encounter with God. And God pulled him out out of the wilderness, out of that environment, out of that situation, out of the guilt and shame of his past. God pulled him out and gave him an assignment. Now Moses was tending the flock of Jethro his father-in-law… and the angel of the Lord appeared to him in flames of fire from within a bush. Moses saw that though the bush was on fire it did not burn up.” - Exodus 3:1–2 “God called to him from within the bush, ‘Moses! Moses!’ And Moses said, ‘Here I am.’” - Exodus 3:4 He was simply doing his job, when suddenly, there was an encounter with God. And God pulled him out of the wilderness, out of that environment, out of that situation, out of the guilt and shame of his past. God pulled him out and gave him an assignment. “So now, go. I am sending you to Pharaoh to bring my people the Israelites out of Egypt.” - Exodus 3:10 And I believe we are in a moment right now that, to many, feels like a standstill. It feels like a hiatus after a long season of pioneering for the Lord, one that has strangely led to this place of wilderness. As I’ve been sharing for a while, we’ve been in a Hosea 2 season, where the Lord has been leading the Church back into the wilderness. That wilderness has been necessary for you. You’ve needed respite. You’ve needed refreshing. You’ve needed to break away from the hustle so God could reset you and bring you back to encounter, which is the ultimate reset. That’s what truly resets you. You’ve taken on so many mantles and jackets—Saul’s armor—for years. You don’t know which way is up anymore, or what your assignment is, who you’re called to, or who you’re not called to. You don’t know where your alignments are meant to be. You’ve had your hands in too many pies, your feet muddy from too many places. You’ve been slimed, slandered. You’ve walked through heartache, difficulty, betrayal. Yet, you’ve felt the compulsion to step into anything just to feel like you’re not lost. But no, the wilderness has been necessary to set you free. Here’s what you need to know: the wilderness can shift quickly because the wilderness leads to encounter, and encounter launches you into your new assignment. I say this over you and prophesy: you are in a very small window of time where the Lord is doing a massive work. The time isn’t long but the work is deep. Let me say that again: the time isn’t long, but the work is deep. God is going deep generationally. This isn’t a short cleanup process. God is going deep into your life, and He wants to set your feet on a new foundation. That’s right this season you’re in right now is a season of a brand-new slab being laid in your life. A new foundation. What is foundation? It’s where God gets you ready, gears you up for the new thing He’s going to build in your life, around you, and through you. Last year, we went to Australia, and the Lord gave me a dream: two towers crumbling to the ground. He said, “You’re at ground zero.” That’s what this is—a ground zero. A new slab has been laid in your life. God is going low and slow right now. He’s getting you ready because many of us have built for years without a foundation—without solid structure or deep roots. So God’s been setting that right for the new season, and for the Church. But we often misdiagnose seasons of fresh foundation as stagnancy, when they’re anything but. When the Lord sets your heart right, He aligns you to a rhythm and a synergy you didn’t know in the past season. He sharpens your discernment your ability to see and know what’s true. He leads you to the right people, right places, and right environments. I believe one key part of this new foundation is that God is leading many out of loneliness and isolation. He’s not just setting your feet upon the rock of salvation He’s breaking off orphan mentalities, the hustle, the striving and leading you into an Acts 2 infrastructure: community, family, people who hold your arms up so you can thrive. This foundation includes restoration God restoring the years the locusts have eaten. And He’s doing that right now. Now for the weighty part of this word: That moment with Moses at the burning bush was more significant than we often realize. It was like Elisha being mantled by Elijah a sudden shift into his true calling. In that moment, God told Moses: “ Go. Set my people free.” And Moses responded, “But God, I don’t know how to speak.” God replied, “When you go, I will give you the words. I will give you signs. I will give you the power.” “Moses said to the Lord, ‘Pardon your servant, Lord. I have never been eloquent…’ And the Lord said to him, ‘Who gave human beings their mouths?… Now go; I will help you speak and will teach you what to say.’” - Exodus 4:10–12 He didn’t just send Moses on an impossible mission. He backed him with the power of heaven. And I feel the word of the Lord right now for many who have been in this season of waiting: You have been fashioned and formed to be a voice for the Lord in this next season. To set the Church free. To set the bound free. God is raising up unconventional, unusual, untrained voices who carry His heart. And I prophesy, in the mighty name of Jesus: this is your burning bush season. You are stepping out of the wilderness and into the bold voice God has called you to be. Let me go one step further: This week look. Look for the signs in your life of breakout. Look for the moments. The encounters. Because that’s where God is waiting for you. You’re looking for external change, for doors to open. But you’re missing the door that’s already swung wide open: the door of encounter. The door to the secret place. The door that leads into the tent of meeting. That’s what I’m calling you to. That’s what God is commissioning you into - a season of intimacy and encounter. So let me prophesy over your - this week, your wilderness shifts. It shifts from waiting to encounter, from wandering aimlessly to walking in clarity. The fog lifts. The silence breaks. Heaven is speaking. Dreams come now! Insight floods your spirit like a rushing river. May the full healing of the wilderness come—so the rest, the restoration, the commissioning can follow. Lord, raise up your wild voices. Those untrained by man but marked by fire. Those who have met You in hidden places. Let them rise now, rooted, ready, and roaring in Jesus’ name. Amen.

It’s primed for awakening. So with the mandate of California at the epicenter, and the nations as our inheritance, this is about God’s heart for His people EVERYWHERE. But in order to fulfill this assignment, we cannot do this alone. We’re writing to ask you to join us—not just as a spectator, but as a builder. The harvest is ready, but the laborers and resources are few. We need: — Intercessors to cover this move of God in prayer. — Financial partners to sow into this Kingdom mandate. — Servant-hearted builders to help establish the foundation. This Global Apostolic Hub will be a place where lives are transformed, leaders are raised, and revival spreads regionally and globally. But we need your help to build it.
