PROPHESYING THE BREAKING OF CHATTER, CLEARING OF THE AIRWAVES, & THE WAVE OF VICTORY

PROPHESYING THE BREAKING OF CHATTER, CLEARING OF THE AIRWAVES, & THE WAVE OF VICTORY

In the last week, I have felt the Lord’s call to His prophetic army to arise and assemble, shake off the dust of the onslaught, and press into what God is doing because many have been lost in the swirl, caught up in the fight, and have lost their focus and purpose. I have been sensing the mental warfare that has slowly begun to take the sword out of the mouths out of the prophets and send them into defeat and deep discouragement. I have sensed that so many of those on the frontlines have been coming up against unfathomable opposition, words, and accusations, and slander that has reaped chaos in homes, marriages, and relationships. In the midst of all of those God gave me two dreams I want to share. If you are needing prayer to break this demonic agenda and take back the airwaves, your ground, get peace and clarity again, and step back into the current of the outpouring of the spirit then this word is for you.

THE DREAM OF THE 2 ND HEAVEN BATTLE

Last week I had a dream where I was witnessing a 2 nd heaven battle that was horrific. It was a battle not of two sides but a battle involving many different armies all colliding in a bloodied battle of ideals, opinions, and beliefs. What shocked me was that I could distinguish that some of these armies were believers that had become caught up in the wrong fight and were battling in the same way that the world was. As I was watching this scene I could sense that this was the fruit of the mainstream media and the demonic principality behind it mass hysteria and onslaught. The battle was causing a flood of witchcraft to permeate the airwaves and release a global cloud of confusion and haziness that was blocking the heavens in sense. When I woke up I felt a deep travail for the church and began to prophesy “THE WITCHCRAFT NEEDS TO STOP NOW IN JESUS NAME!” and then I logged into my social media accounts and started prophesying this over every platform, then over the world news stations.

In the confusion and chatter the enemy has stirred up the righteous to pick up the stones meant to be hurled at the giants of our day, but instead, the church has picked up these stones and started hurling them at each other. We must get our eyes off the diversion right now because it is a trap of the enemy so that we don’t take up our posts and take down the giants that are blocking, defying, and trying to prevent the church from seeing the breakthroughs and move of the spirit that we have been prophesying we will see. We have been the laughing stock because we have forgotten who the real enemy is. We have become so consumed with the political and culture war that we have stepped onto the battlefield and out of the place of effective intercession and prayer.

LOST IN THE CHATTER & SHIPWRECKED ON A FALSE NARRATIVE

As I was prophesying I could see the swirl in the spirit. It was messy and a spiritual conflict just like my dream where the enemy had roused up fear, anger, and hate and caused people and groups to fight against one another on another level. This year there has been so much witchcraft swirling because of this and so many that have been feeling the effects of the chatter and it’s beginning to take its toll. Deep discouragement and defeat, confusion, grief, fear and bombarding mental warfare, headaches, and wanting to give up. People have become so caught up in the enemy's narrative and have forgotten or not known what the script of heaven is for this hour, and become shipwrecked and lost in the swirl and confusion of the storm. But Holy Spirit is going to clear that today. I pray over you, your home, and the nations that the witchcraft stops now in Jesus' name!

“But I promise you, no weapon meant to hurt you will succeed, and you will refute every accusing word spoken against you. This promise is the inheritance of Yahweh’s servants, and their vindication is from me,” says Yahweh” Isaiah 54:17

MEDIA WARFARE, THE SHIFT OF POWER, & THE RISING MEDIA ARMY

As I continued to prophesy I saw that there was coming to a shift to the media mountain.. I saw the eyes of the Lord staring at the media of the world and His eyes burned with a Holy Justice and I knew it was a reckoning day for the media of the world that has lied, twisted, and skewed the truth for far too long. In the absence of the prophetic office taking up their place and influence in governing the airwaves, the counterfeit prophetic has been occupying it. The leviathan, twisting spirit, and jezebel have been lording it over the earth and releasing deception, lies, and demonic propaganda to champion the enemy's causes. It has blinded generations and people groups for far too long but right now God is raising up a prophetic remnant who will take back their birthright.

The phrase that keeps bubbling forth from my spirit all year has been “We must be the new media!” which is timely since we are in the year of the roar, and the decade of the prophetic revolution. There is a Davidic people that are stepping up right now that sound different to what we have been hearing – they are not party prophets but KINGDOM voices. They will be the radical and confronting voice of TRUTH in an age of smoke and mirrors and restore the word of the Lord to the land that has been dry and cracked from the lack of oil and revival rain. They won’t bow down to the cultural kings and gods to appease people for the sake of being alienated or attacked, and they won’t use the arrows of the enemy to fight their fights either. They will be the revolution of clear kingdom voices that EXPOSES deception and points the church and world back to Jesus.

THE 3 rd HEAVEN STRATEGY & THE CLEARING OF THE AIRWAVES

“He raised us up with Christ the exalted One, and we ascended with him into the glorious perfection and authority of the heavenly realm, for we are now co-seated as one with Christ!” Ephesians 2:6

As I continued to prophesy I heard a line from the old 90’s song by Bittersweet Symphony: “But the airwaves are clean and there's nobody singing to me now” and I knew that the Lord was speaking that the airwaves needed to be cleared and cleaned by the SOUND and SONG of the David generation, the worshippers, intercessors, and watchmen who would dare to RISE UP OUT of the 2 nd heaven warfare and into the place of speaking into what God was doing. The media of the world literally operates in the same spiritual realm as the place where angels and demons war -  the second heavens. The word media comes from the word “medium” which means “middle layer” or “middle place” which is the second heavens, but we as the body of Christ cannot operate from the same realm but instead, we must come up higher and release the word of the Lord from our jurisdiction and position “In heavenly places”. That is the place where God is calling us as the church to and WE MUST ASCEND right now if we are going to see the shift we have been wanting to see.

We strategy is simple, we can’t keep wrestling flesh and blood but we must get out of the distraction and counterfeit fight and come up higher and worship, prophesy, and pray in the heart of God into the earth. It is only when we come up higher that we will see what God is doing and not just the chaos the enemy is wreaking on the earth. We must hear and release the solutions of heaven! Let the pure voices arise, clear the air, and reveal the heart of our king in this chaotic time. #wearethenewmedia

“After this, I looked, and there before me was a door standing open in heaven. And the voice I had first heard speaking to me like a trumpet said, “Come up here, and I will show you what must take place after this.” Revelation 4:1

THE WAVE OF RECOVERY & THE HORN-BLAST OF VICTORY

In my second dream, I was in a house that backed onto the ocean that had these massive 20 ft high glass windows that could see out to the sea. As I looked out I could see that there was a torrential storm taking place and the ocean was choppy and waves were crashing up onto the house and the surrounding coastline. Suddenly Lou Engle appears next to me and he and I start looking out towards the sea and he says “Can you see it?” so I look and I can see that beyond the storm at the back near the horizon there is a massive tsunami wave building and about to crest. The wave wasn’t just a wave of revival and outpouring but it was a wave of justice, redemption, recovery, and the secured victory. It was coming as the answer for the blood of the unborn that has been crying out, the reconciliation of racial injustices, trafficking and the hidden evils that have been hiding in plain sight, and for the blood of Jesus to wash our land. It was the wave that has been contended for generations to see America return to its roots and the nations to the feet of Jesus. Both of us then begin to speak and prophesy to this wave for what seemed like hours and we were cheering on what God was doing and soon lost sight of the storm that kept blowing and swirling outside. Then what happened next was very strange yet significant, but I told Lou that I needed to hold up his arms as a prophetic act as they did for Moses in Exodus 17:12. He agreed and I struggled at first because his arms were so heavy, but as I did a fresh anointing and strength cane upon Lou who suddenly began to prophesy and released a sound that sounded like a horn blast.

The significance of this dream are these points:

  • The house represents the 3rd heaven posture and place of prophetic revelation that can see past the storm and the window represents clear revelation that comes by being in that place.
  • The storm and waves represent the 2 nd heaven storm and the counterfeit movements and distraction trying to get our eyes off what God is doing. It is the old wave that we have to let go of to see the new.
  • Lou Engle represents the global prayer and intercession movement but especially right now the prayer movement for America in this hour.
  • The wave is a wave of healing, justice, redemption, and the returning of the nation of America and the nations to the feet of Jesus. It is the prophesied wave of harvest. This wave is also the undoing of the enemy's plans and every foothold he has had in secret hidden places. The wave is coming to unearth and wash away the counterfeit.
  • Lou’s prayer and intercession over the wave speak of the call to pray and contend like midwives for what God is doing and about to do. The show isn’t over, it's about to begin.
  • Holding up Lou’s arms spoke to me of the joining of the rivers and unity needed right now to pray In what God is doing as well as the synergy of the generations  -  sons, and daughters holding up the arms of the generals and their weighty global visions that are shifting the course of the nations as we speak.
  • It was Aaron and Hur who lifted up Moses arms in Exodus 17:12: Aaron means “mountain of strength” or “high place” and Hur means “Liberty” and “burning one”, which speaks of a generation of presence dwellers and freedom carrying burning ones who will shoulder the load of the fathers in this season and see the promised breakthrough come to pass.
  • The enemy Moses was fighting against in Exodus 17:12 were the Amalekites which represented the spiritual principality that “twisted and wrung” just as the principality of the media does.
  • The horn blast represents the blast of victory, the blast of the announcing the wave, but also the blast of the call to war, and right now that is the call of the hour for the church at this time.

WE MUST KEEP OUR EYES ON THE WAVE, STAND FIRM, & FIX OUR EYES ON JESUS!

“Moses answered the people, "Do not be afraid. Stand firm and you will see the deliverance the LORD will bring you today. The Egyptians you see today you will never see again” Exodus 14:13

So let me call you forthright now out of the noise and the distraction, witchcraft, muzzling, chaos, distraction, mind bombardment, and into your position and place on the frontlines as a the new prophetic media army who will STAND FIRM & NOT CHANGE THE SUBJECT or be moved by what we see or hear. I prophesy right now for the peace of God to hit you like a freight train, for every bit of noise, chatter, and confusion of the diversion to be cleared, and for you to see beyond the swirl to the move of the spirit about to crash over the nations. I prophesy you are coming out from under the weight of heaviness and weariness and tapping into the easy yoke and potency of your mantle. You are stepping out of the ring where you have been shadow boxing the enemy with every distraction and argument that comes to your door and stepping into your Davidic anointing to take down the giants and strongholds around you and step into the 3rd heaven current of His glory so you can see the ideas, strategies, and blueprints of heaven and speak them forth in Jesus name!  We must look beyond the storm because the wave is coming!!

ARE YOU AT A THRESHOLD OF FAITH?

By Nate Johnston • June 6, 2025
I have some encouragement for the pioneers. Over the last few weeks, I’ve kept hearing this language - that we are at thresholds of faith. What is a threshold? A threshold is defined as: the point of entering or beginning something new. So, what is a threshold of faith? A threshold of faith is a place you come to when you can no longer keep operating or living within the confines of your previous limitations. God is leading you into a significant breakthrough in that area to expand you and prepare you for what’s coming. Thresholds of faith at first feel like pressure. They feel emotionally triggering. They feel like the enemy is warring against your mind. It can feel even feel like a rollercoaster of soul highs and lows as God brings precious things to the surface to free you and lighten you. Why? Because God is pulling you higher, and the enemy is trying to keep you lower. God is calling you to fly like an eagle, while the enemy wants to keep you grounded with the turkeys. In this calling we go from glory to glory with God (2 Corinthians 3:18). So He’s always leading us into greater levels of truth about who we are and about our calling as sons and daughters, as leaders, and as fathers and mothers. There are always deeper dimensions of capacity, anointing, character, and fruit that we are meant to walk in. So we go through thresholds of faith not because something is wrong or because things are falling apart, but because we’ve asked Him for more. This pressure is the very thing we’ve been praying for. But we often forget - before breakthrough comes, God upgrades our internal operating system. If He brings us into breakthrough without transformation, we’ll crash and burn. The issue is that In this consumer-Christian culture we’ve inherited, we want our circumstances to change, but we often resist the internal transformation required. We avoid deliverance. We avoid healing. We avoid conviction. We avoid the refining fire. We want the goods without the fire. We want the promise without the pruning. But it doesn’t work like that. Right now, the Lord is trying to pull us higher, but there’s been a battle. There’s been tension. And there are moments where everything around you feels like it’s in ruins. Promises haven’t come to pass and God didn’t come through. That’s where the fight is because it feels too late, like it’s the eleventh hour and so how can you trust God again when your last promise didn’t come to pass? By faith even Sarah herself received the ability to conceive, even beyond the proper time of life, since she considered Him faithful who had promised.” - Hebrews 11:11 Sarah’s breakthrough looked impossible. She was past the point of fruitfulness. But God was working internally. She had to shift her focus to His ability, not her own. She had to stop striving and simply trust His miracle-working power. That’s how you know you’re at a threshold - you feel barren. You feel like nothing is working. And yet, God is asking you to believe again. To dream again. To step forward into something you don’t even have faith for yet. He’s not asking for perfect faith. He’s asking for a yes. Thresholds often feel like the most broken, most vulnerable, most disqualified place you’ve ever been. And that’s exactly where God chooses to expand you. Not when everything’s in order. Not when you feel strong. It’s when you feel empty, unworthy, and unprepared that He calls you into the new. As I was praying about this, I kept hearing the word “Jordan” and I instantly knew what the Lord was showing me. In the Bible, the Jordan River represents thresholds of calling, identity, and breakthrough. Joshua 3:17 – The Israelites crossed the Jordan into the Promised Land. 2 Kings 2:8 – Elijah struck the Jordan before being taken up. 2 Kings 2:14 – Elisha crossed back with a double portion. Matthew 3:13 – Jesus was baptized in the Jordan, then led into the wilderness. Genesis 32:22 – Jacob crossed the brook Jabbok (connected to the Jordan), leaving behind his old identity and life. I believe we are at the Jordan right now with our foot about to step in. Oh not deeper waters! It’s scary. What if I can’t swim? What if I trip? That’s what we feel in this moment. I’ve felt it in my own life where God is stretching me and I know it’s for my benefit. But in the natural, it looks like warfare, mental attack, depletion and robbery, failure, closed doors, confusion, and feeling out of your depth. Why? Because God is revealing the places you’ve placed your trust, your identity in and is revealing where you leant on your hustle, your gifting, and your own strength. Those things can’t sustain you anymore. And at the same time, the enemy is trying to discourage you, to make you give up right at the point of the threshold. He wants you to break right before your breakthrough. But God is asking you: Will you trust Me in this moment? Will you believe even when it doesn’t look like it’s working? A few months ago, I was in that exact place surrounded by doubt and pressure. And I heard the Lord whisper “The only way to survive this season is to stay at My feet. Stay in My presence.” That’s the key to crossing the threshold. Not knowledge. Not connections. Not hustle. Just surrender. So I prophesy this over you now - Just as Caleb and Joshua lingered in the tent and came out with a different spirit, so will you. You will cross the threshold with new eyes, new ears, and a new heart. Even now, God is breaking off the old operating system. He is breaking off the pain and reproach of your past. “Today I have rolled away the reproach of Egypt from you.” - Joshua 5:9 The shame, the failure, the false labels they are being cut away. You are being recommissioned. This threshold of faith is the breakthrough you’ve been praying for and it’s time to step over in Jesus name! 

WHEN JEZEBEL SENDS YOU INTO ISOLATION

By Nate Johnston • June 3, 2025
One of the greatest epidemics of the church is breaking right now. And as we start this week, I want to pray over you and prophesy into your life especially if you’ve been isolated by the enemy or been in a season of feeling very disconnected from other believers and from people. If you’ve seen attack and warfare on your relationships, marriages, your kids, and those around you… If you’ve gone through season-after-season of wrong alignments, unhealthy coverings, Sauls instead of fathers & mothers, all while being surrounded by wolves... Or if you’ve just been rejected over and over again, and it’s sent you into isolation. I believe the Lord is speaking to us all in this season. I believe we are seeing a spiritual movement both on a micro and a macro level right now to shift this tide. We’re seeing the Lord expose an assignment that has been allowed and tolerated in the body of Christ for too long. That assignment is isolation. It’s a tactic of the Jezebel spirit, one that has hidden easily within the institutional church paradigm and its thrived within the current culture of the church. But the Lord is weeding it out, exposing it, and bringing us back into the revelation of family and belonging. That truth is counteracting and unloosing the bonds of this demonic principality because people are no longer interested in a nice sermon if they have to go home and be alone in the week. This spirit has worked overtime on us. It’s a principality that hasn’t just broken apart the body of Christ into factions and denominations. It’s also stopped the most powerful voices, those carrying truth, and authority from rising into their place. It’s created a cancel culture within the church. An isolation culture. It’s created antisocial behavioral norms within the church, and we’ve accepted it for too long. But I prophesy today - That is all shifting. I prophesy it’s shifting over your life most importantly. As I was praying into this, I asked the Lord why Jezebel seems so invested in creating this kind of division and isolation. And He said that Jezebel recognizes the power and anointing that comes when the church walks in unity. That’s the macro. The Jezebel spirit knows that when believers support one another, when we link arms, there is an anointing that is unleashed. Because if it can isolate - it can assassinate. Let me say that again - If Jezebel can isolate, it can assassinate. Why do you think so many people can attend church on a Sunday and still feel utterly alone? Why is it accepted that we go to events and meetings and conferences, but still lack genuine connection? The church has often wrapped mission in religious activity, while relational connection, the very essence of family has been lost. It’s led us into pain and deep spiritual disconnection. And it’s time for this to shift. As I continued to pray, the Lord reminded me of the seasons in my own life where this spirit came after us again and again. I remembered being in churches where the nature of our calling led to sudden rejection, pushing us out of community. I remembered delivering a warning word to leaders, and immediately being outcast. I remembered being in a toxic work environment, where a Jezebel-influenced boss physically isolated me in a separate building so she could bully me. And I remembered the many times this happened in ministry spaces. It’s happened over and over again and we have all become used to it. We’ve learned to operate alone. And we’ve called it “normal” ministry life. We say the church is a family, but so many have lived as lone rangers even inside a church setting. But this is breaking now! Look at Elijah in 1 Kings 18. Jezebel threatens him. And he runs for his life. He hides in fear. He isolates. And even though God looks after him, there are a few things that take place in that moment that I believe the Lord is highlighting now as a blueprint for us. First, Elijah is fed. I see this in a few lights - one as the fresh manna from heaven and sustenance building him up again. Secondly, in light of the breaking bread of Acts 2 pointing to God leading him out of isolation. And thirdly as the bread of deliverance. Next he’s reminded of the still-small-voice because fear had drowned it out. In isolation and fear, the voice of the Lord pulls us out because we are so bombarded by lies and it’s the enemies lies that keep us there. Right now the lies that sent you there need to be broken. Then what happens? Elijah wraps his mantle around his face and leaves the cave which is prophetically representative of choosing to pick up what we dropped when we went through the pain of slander and accusation that led us to isolation in the first place. It’s picking up our calling again. Oh but it’s also more. It’s choosing to allow your heart to let people in after a season of being wounded. I believe this is the invitation from the Lord right now. To leave the cave. To leave the place of isolation. I know it’s easier said than done. I know many of you are afraid, and rightfully so. You’ve been burned. You’ve been rejected. But there is a grace right now to break this assignment of isolation and assassination that has put your gifting on pause and your purpose on the back burner. This is a season of finding your tribe. Finding the people who will lift your arms. It’s time to step out of religious, controlled environments and into true community. Into spiritual family. There is a remnant rising for this moment and we are linking arms while creating safe spaces. Pastors and leaders from all walks of life are laying their brands in the dust and choosing connection over control. It’s the Acts 2 core calling us back to breaking bread. This is the priority now. We are better together. Healthier together. Even COVID was a prophetic image of the enemy’s plan to isolate. But we’re saying no more. We will not let this spirit mute our voices or steal our destinies. We need each other. So I prophesy over you: This moment right now marks the breaking of isolation. Loneliness is breaking off of you. It’s time to find your people I prophesy this week you will feel something stirring on this front. A stirring. A longing. Your heart beginning to feel again. And bondages will break in the process. You’ll feel the shift inside and see it on the outside as God brings this into being. I prophesy - New environments, new rooms, new tables places you never imagined will open to you. God can do it in a short time. But I also challenge you , you need to step out. Start walking toward the community God has prepared for you. Because isolation is over In Jesus’ name.

I remembered being in a toxic work environment, where a Jezebel-influenced boss physically isolated me in a separate building so she could bully me. And I remembered the many times this happened in ministry spaces. It’s happened over and over again and we have all become used to it. We’ve learned to operate alone. And we’ve called it “normal” ministry life. We say the church is a family, but so many have lived as lone rangers even inside a church setting. But this is breaking now! Look at Elijah in 1 Kings 18. Jezebel threatens him. And he runs for his life. He hides in fear. He isolates. And even though God looks after him, there are a few things that take place in that moment that I believe the Lord is highlighting now as a blueprint for us. First, Elijah is fed. I see this in a few lights - one as the fresh manna from heaven and sustenance building him up again. Secondly, in light of the breaking bread of Acts 2 pointing to God leading him out of isolation. And thirdly as the bread of deliverance. Next he’s reminded of the still-small-voice because fear had drowned it out. In isolation and fear, the voice of the Lord pulls us out because we are so bombarded by lies and it’s the enemies lies that keep us there. Right now the lies that sent you there need to be broken. Then what happens? Elijah wraps his mantle around his face and leaves the cave which is prophetically representative of choosing to pick up what we dropped when we went through the pain of slander and accusation that led us to isolation in the first place. It’s picking up our calling again. Oh but it’s also more. It’s choosing to allow your heart to let people in after a season of being wounded. I believe this is the invitation from the Lord right now. To leave the cave. To leave the place of isolation. I know it’s easier said than done. I know many of you are afraid, and rightfully so. You’ve been burned. You’ve been rejected. But there is a grace right now to break this assignment of isolation and assassination that has put your gifting on pause and your purpose on the back burner. This is a season of finding your tribe. Finding the people who will lift your arms. It’s time to step out of religious, controlled environments and into true community. Into spiritual family. There is a remnant rising for this moment and we are linking arms while creating safe spaces. Pastors and leaders from all walks of life are laying their brands in the dust and choosing connection over control. It’s the Acts 2 core calling us back to breaking bread. This is the priority now. We are better together. Healthier together. Even COVID was a prophetic image of the enemy’s plan to isolate. But we’re saying no more. We will not let this spirit mute our voices or steal our destinies. We need each other. So I prophesy over you: This moment right now marks the breaking of isolation. Loneliness is breaking off of you. It’s time to find your people I prophesy this week you will feel something stirring on this front. A stirring. A longing. Your heart beginning to feel again. And bondages will break in the process. You’ll feel the shift inside and see it on the outside as God brings this into being. I prophesy - New environments, new rooms, new tables places you never imagined will open to you. God can do it in a short time. But I also challenge you , you need to step out. Start walking toward the community God has prepared for you. Because isolation is over In Jesus’ name. 

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.
