PROPHETIC WORD & INSIGHT 08/17/20 - THE LIFTING OF MENTAL FATIGUE, ANGELIC REINFORCEMENTS, & THE HEAVYWEIGHT REFORMERS

I feel to share some prophetic insight & prayer points for this week from what the Lord has been speaking to me about. Instead of a long extensive written word I am releasing this in bullet-point form to help you run with it, speak and prophesy into it, and run with it this week.

THE CLOUD OF CONFUSION & THE CLOUD OF GLORY

  • Mental fatigue is lifting this week. I saw an assignment of psychological warfare that was being dealt with as we intentionally break away from distractions and run into the secret place. It was to the degree such as a torturer inflicting mental pain and games upon its victims. That torment must break off you right now in Jesus' name!
  • Those who have been clouded and confused for many months now and haven’t been able to shake it are going to step OUT of the cloud of demonic smokescreens and veils and into TRUTH and the Glory cloud once again.
  • The purpose of this psychological warfare was to try to subtly DIVERT people into fighting wars in the flesh instead of defeating principalities and powers in the strength of the Spirit. The assignment to slowly wear down the body into submission to its evil mission/agenda is being exposed. Double-mindedness and conflicted purpose are being re-aligned. People will start to see where they have been fighting illusions and shadow boxing.
  • Irrational fear and foreboding are turning into a fear of the Lord and deep conviction to step into your assignment at all costs.

*Isaiah 40:29

*Isaiah 60:1

EXPIRED ALIGNMENTS CAUSING DELAY, RED TAPE, & LACKLUSTRE

  • God is “clearing the cache” in many of you right now. The hidden overheads of your life that are less seen or noticed where there has been subtle and slow “leaks” causing you lack of energy, motivation, and joy.
  • God is closing the door on very very expired alignments that have been damaging you in the background. Because they haven’t been dealt with they have been keeping you tied to old seasons and stopping doors opening up before you.
  • The word lackluster means “to dim” or to remove the shine and potency of something. These wrong alignments and coverings are smothering the life and anointing out of many right now. For the sake of your mission- set it loose!
  • There are leaders, voices, and people from past seasons that have been like “jobs friends” speaking negativity and judgment over your journey forward in the name of caution but it doesn’t originate from the heart of God. Cut off their words!
  • Subtle alignments and unholy vows are being severed where you have made verbal agreements to people that have created yokes of bondage.
  • These words from people have caused delay and red tape but the delay and legalities are breaking this week in Jesus' name!

*Isaiah 10:27

*Nahum 1:17

BREAKING THE WHITE FLAG & ANGELIC REINFORCEMENTS

  • This week - don’t wave the white flag! The temptation to forfeit has never been greater because opposition is relentless but the reality of the Holy Spirit in you and the God of vindication who is for you is even greater!
  • I saw an angelic army being released from heaven in assignment to lift up people's arms.
  • God is bringing his reinforcements to you internally, strengthening you, and refreshing you, and also externally into the world around you.
  • I saw a vision of President Trump's arms being lifted up and a wall of fire around his home and family. The pressure upon him has never been greater and the enemy has been tempting him to bow out in areas because he is fatigued. Pray for your leader America!
  • Pray for your leaders around the world and coming leaders that they would be people open-hearted to the spirit of God.
  • I saw the president of South Korea Moon Jae-in in a vision and saw the Lord standing over him and decisions that were needing to be made. Lord give him wisdom. There is a healing/resolution about to come to the Eastern Asia region.
  • God is strengthening people on the frontlines who are called to carry the torch for their regions. If this is you I prophesy renewed STRENGTH upon you in Jesus' name!

*Psalm 34:7

*Psalm 34:1

*1 Kings 19:5

DEEP STATE PROPHETS & THE HEAVYWEIGHT ANOINTING

  • I heard the Lord use an interesting phrase “The deep-state prophets are coming to reveal the truth from lies” but before you label me a conspiracy theorist or accuse me of being political I believe God was revealing that He was going to use many prophetic voices in this season who carry governmental mantles to simply reveal the will of God, the heart of God, and the plans of God in the earth. In doing so lies will be revealed in a public way. Veils that have been cast over the nations will be removed and evil that has been able to exist due to the lack of light will be evicted. This week God is stirring up courage in the hearts of those who hear Him in this way but haven’t had the courage to speak up.
  • God is revealing the hearts of men in this hour and where agendas and motives have been able to be hidden or twisted in manipulative ways-  the cracks are beginning to show. I saw a vision of a rising female politician and a dragon came out of her like an apparition. This is a season we will see people for they really are and who is really controlling them/who they are a puppet for.
  • In the next few weeks, there will be another revealing of a secret alliance in high places. This is where we see the fulfillment of the promise that the Lord its in the heavens and laughs. Nothing hidden can prosper.
  • There is currently tension in those who God is calling to wear their deep and weighty reformational mantles because it feels so foreign and unfamiliar. God calls you his “heavyweights” because you will breakthrough places where others have tried for decades. This week step out in faith and see the anointing upon you break yokes and bring corporate breakthrough.

*Psalms 2:1-6

*Psalms 42:7

INTERCESSIONAL GATEWAYS, STRATEGIC HAMMER-BLOWS, & THE RIPE FRUIT TREE

  • God is revealing specific locations across the earth that intercessional assignments need to take place. In a vision, I was taken to a port city in the USA and shown a map where things were spoken and released causing dominion over that area and city.
  • God is giving strategy to be released in spiritual gateways around the world to TURN BACK what has been set in motion.
  • As people step out to pray and worship in these locations it will be like a repeated hammer blow to the residing counterfeit kingdoms that been established and light will invade those places. Watchmen, you are these hammers sent out to take the land!
  • Watch the state of California this week and month as things progress because there is a ripening of many movements where it will hit new levels of publicity but also power as God sparks the body of Christ to stand up and be part of what Holy Spirit is pouring out.
  • I saw a vision of a tree standing in California that had a shadow leaning from west to east. This tree was ripe and fruit was ready to be picked. What people see as barren and hopeless God says is fruitful and ready for harvest. The fruit which starts here will bless the rest of America.

*John 4:35

*Isaiah 45:1-3

By Nate Johnston • May 21, 2025
Something is stirring in the Spirit—a revival is breaking forth in the heart of Orange County, California. But it’s bigger than California, this is just the birthing ground. A stake in the ground of sorts. A place that will send a shock-wave to the nations of the earth. Because ultimately, this is about a global move of God we are preparing for. God has called us to pioneer an Apostolic Hub—a place of fire, prayer, equipping, and sending. This isn’t just a ministry…it’s a movement. We believe Southern California is not lost or without hope. 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.

WE ARE IN A ROOTS MOVEMENT MOMENT

By Nate Johnston • May 21, 2025
I heard the Lord say: This is a roots movement. This is a moment where I have humbled my Church not to punish her, but to heal her. To purify her. To prune her for the coming harvest. My Church had grown accustomed to the bloom, the fruit, the outward beauty and what man sees, celebrates, and calls success. But right now, my glory is resting on what looks ordinary. What looks unpopular. Even what appears ugly or overlooked. Man says it’s about charisma. About the lights and smoke machines. About loud worship and grandeur. But my glory in this hour is resting on the grassroots, the simple, the foolish. On that which looks like a seed, small, buried, and unseen yet saturated by My glory. I’ve looked into the hearts of My people. I’ve seen a deep longing for what is real. For what is authentic. For what draws them back to Me not a performance, but an encounter. Not hype, but holy. For too long, My name was exalted in systems that celebrated man’s wisdom, man’s comforts, and man’s movements. But now, their brokenness is leading them back on unfamiliar paths toward what looks small, humble, and unthreatening. And yet it is pregnant with promise. That place you’ve overlooked is where I’ve hidden the seeds of My next great outpouring. A place people will say, “Surely revival can’t come from there.” But that is exactly where My Spirit is about to be poured out. I’ve chosen a people who have chosen the low road. Those who refuse to chase platforms or prestige. If you choose the low road, My Spirit will get the glory. If you humble yourself in this season if you choose the way few choose you will experience personal revival. You will see the fulfillment of the promises I made over nations. But it starts with the roots. Can you not see? I’ve been cutting back the tree. I’ve been stripping away the opulence because it came, and My glory lifted. The spectacle increased, but signs and wonders diminished. Man became too familiar with My anointing, relying on giftings instead of My Spirit. He who has ears, let him hear: I am doing a new thing in this hour, but it won’t look like what you’re used to. I’m bringing My Church back to its roots. Back to Acts. Back to the place of birth where it was messy, but it was beautiful. And right now, many are feeling the tension. You can feel the pull into something new, but it feels like your branches are being cut back. Some feel like nothing more than a stump, a root in the ground. But from that root will grow something powerful if you let Me water you. If you let Me tend to you. I’m uprooting the weeds and tares from past seasons things that have choked your family, your calling, your mind, your marriage. I’m clearing the soil so that what grows next will be healthy, sustainable, and lasting. I’ve brought My Church low so that what is planted now will remain for generations. This is not the end. This is a rebirthing. You will experience My glory again, says the Lord. So if you feel lost…if the doors are closing…if your resources are drying up…if you’re staring at impossible debt or deep lack… know that I am there. -I am in the midst of your marriage. -I am in the midst of that prodigal child. -I am in the midst of your finances. -I am in the midst of your health. The enemy has lied to you, but I am taking an ax to the root of those lies. Not to destroy your life but to prune it. To cut back what was killing you. To free you from generational cycles and mindsets that have left you worn out and barely holding on. I am bringing you into wholeness. I am bringing you into freedom. Can you not see it? And here is My call to the Church: -If you will prepare a place for Me to dwell… -If you will come low… -If you will humble yourself… I will come. And the people will come. The broken will come. The world that is truly searching for Me will come. Roots movements are beginning to burst forth across the earth. They look like Davids in the field unnoticed, uninvited, seemingly insignificant. Yet they carry My glory. Soon, they will grow. And the world will recognize their fruit and like the pearl in the field many will give away everything to buy the field. The hidden ones will emerge to join the song of the lamb. And they will become dispensaries of My presence where healing, signs, wonders, and the fresh and mighty outpouring of my spirit will flow! 

I'M GOING TO TURN IT AROUND!

By Nate Johnston • May 21, 2025
Are you facing a bleak situation right now? A bad report? I feel an unction from the Holy Spirit to prophesy over those standing in the middle of what looks like impossible right now. It might be health issues, financial breakdown, family chaos, mental exhaustion and more. Let me prophesy….It’s going to turn around. You know those moments in life where you’re under pressure, crushed, confused, out of options? You’ve prayed, fasted, cried… and still, nothing shifts? And then out of nowhere, God speaks. We had one of those moments today. A family member was in surgery and everything began falling apart. It didn’t look good. In fact, it looked hopeless. Panic hit me at first so I cried out, “Lord, I need you. I don’t know what to do.” And suddenly I heard the voice of the Lord thunder in my spirit “It’s going to turn around!” At that exact moment, I glanced at my phone - it was 11:11. The Holy Spirit reminded me of John 11:11: “Our friend Lazarus has fallen asleep, but I am going there to wake him up.” Notice that J esus didn’t call Lazarus “dead” even though everyone else did. He called him asleep because He saw the turnaround before it came. He spoke life into a situation everyone had already given up on. In the natural, Lazarus was gone. But in the spirit, heaven had a different word. And I believe God is saying to many of you; “What looks dead is only sleeping and I’m about to wake it up.” Just like the young girl in Mark 5, when they told Jesus she was dead, and He said, “She is not dead, she is only sleeping.” He spoke a word that contradicted the room. And I feel right now that heaven is interrupting your crisis with a contradictory word: “It’s going to turn around.” Like in Zephaniah 3:19–20 which declares: “In the end I will turn things around for the people… I’ll get rid of all those who’ve made your life miserable. I’ll heal the maimed; I’ll bring home the homeless… On Judgment Day, I’ll bring you back home—a great family gathering!” This is your Psalm 126 moment: “When the Lord turned again the captivity of Zion, we were like them that dream. Then was our mouth filled with laughter…” — Psalm 126:1–2 That moment when sorrow turns to laughter. Tears to testimony. Confusion to clarity. But here’s the truth: I know many of you are weary. You’ve been through years of warfare, setbacks, disappointments. And you have had some unexpected situations rise and you’re wondering, “Do I even have the strength to stand in this one?” You feel like you’re out of fight. You’re tired of pushing. Tired of prophesying with no fruit. Tired of trying to make things move In your own strength. You’ve thought, “Maybe I should just roll over. Maybe I should stop contending. It’s too much.” But I feel the Lord tell me to send this word out to hold up your arms today. This word is not just encouragement. It’s a prophetic act. Like Aaron and Hur holding up Moses’ arms in battle (Exodus 17:12), I’m lifting yours right now in the Spirit and I am declaring over you: The battle is shifting. Remember 2 Kings 6, when Elisha’s servant woke up and saw their city surrounded by enemy armies? Fear took over. But Elisha prayed: “Open his eyes, Lord, so that he may see.” Then the Lord opened the servant’s eyes, and he looked and saw the hills full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha. —2 Kings 6:17 I pray the same for you today: Lord, open their eyes. Let them see what You’ve already released on their behalf. Let them see that heaven is fighting for them. This is a midweek arm-lifting moment. I declare boldness is returning to your voice. Fire is coming back to your bones. And faith is rising again in your heart. Watch it turn around. Not by might, not by power but by My Spirit, says the Lord. —Zechariah 4:6 But God is not just fixing surface-level problems. He is resetting your foundations. Where the enemy has robbed, God is restoring. Where the locusts have eaten, He is repaying. This is Joel 2:25; “I will restore to you the years that the swarming locust has eaten…” So let me say it again - It’s turning around. Even in a short amount of time the suddenly of the Lord is about to visit your situation. That assignment that’s been hovering over you is breaking. That heaviness is lifting. And God will get all the glory In Jesus’ mighty name!
