THE WAR AT THE THRESHOLD OF 5784

THE WAR AT THE THRESHOLD OF 5784

THE WAR AT THE THRESHOLD OF 5784

We are at a threshold of time right now.


We are at the threshold, the doorway, the opening to a new era and the ending of a season of time.


We're about to enter in to a season of unparalleled promise and fulfillment. We're about to enter in to a season of never seen before, recompense, restoration and resurrection of everything that was lost.


We're also entering into a season of building the new plans, ideas and blueprints on God's heart, and seeing a jubilee level of provision come in to be able to accomplish this.


We're about to see a wealth transfer come to the body of Christ that's going to cause us in a moment to shift from the tail to the head.


We're about to enter into a time we're about to see the muzzled church become a powerful voice of influence and authority.


Where been divided and a laughing stock, we’re entering into an era where we're breaking ties with the old and entering into something that is untainted and is pure and we're seeing a Davidic people raise up to lead the church out and into the new thing.


We're in a changing of the guard and the reshuffling and repositioning of God's army, the resurgence of a family and company, and the ending of an institutionalized church that has been powerless, weak and without a voice to change the dire state of our world.


But at this threshold right now - tension is high.


At this threshold right now, many are facing the war of all wars and the battles of all battles.


This is the moment where the heat is on. The enemy is throwing every single fiery dart and arrow at the hearts of God's people to try to discourage them and cause them to go back and give up.


Right now we are at a threshold where for many It feels like all is lost. It doesn’t feel like the crossing over into a new door but into ruin.


The enemy is hitting the body of Christ on all angles to try to cause us to retreat and run and forfeit the call of God.


He does not want us placing our foot across that threshold and entering into our new day.


He does not want us entering into fulfillment.


He does not want to want us entering into promise.


He does not want us to experience the finality of our contending, warring, pioneering, and our faith journey.


Instead, he wants us to feel like it was all for nothing and he wants us to fall into discouragement, misery, further hope, deferred trauma, pain and bitterness.


Yes, the heat is on. The war against God's people has never been more intense.


You could say we're at an 11th hour mark where the future seems uncertain and it feels like our intercession and contending has come to nothing.


But let me prophesy - The tide of your battle is about to turn.


The tide of your battle is about to turn. You're about to see God move on your behalf.


Just as you're seeing recession around you. Just as you're seeing an increase of robbery around you, watch now as that begins to shift. “For I'm doing a work in your day, says the Lord that you would have to see to believe, and for so long you have been believing by faith, but yet you now are entering into a season of seeing the promise that I'm leading you into”


“This is a stretch forth your tent peg season. It is not a season of falling back and retreating. It's a season of going forth, says the Lord. It's a season of building faithfully. But some have said, “how can I build faithfully when I don't have the resources to build? How can I build faithfully when everything is falling into chaos and ruin around me?”


As the Lord said this, I went into a vision and I saw two kings 6 where the sons of prophet said, “this place is too small for us. We must build!”


But then I saw the ax head drop into the water.


This is what many are facing. It's a moment that all looks lost. How can you build without the tools? How can you build without the instruments?


“But now watch says the Lord for untold provision shall come as a marker of entering into this threshold, and a market shall be that I turn this battle for you and that which has looked like void and that which has looked like a war on your provision, shall now turn into an abundance as the Lord for I will do it.


“I'm bringing the provision for you to move into the promise. I'm bringing that provision for you to be able to purchase the land and to build that which I've given you many years ago, says the Lord”


“For this threshold, this new era shifting is not just about spiritual language change. It's not just about a reformational new move and reshuffling and redefinition. This is about a territorial shift that I'm bringing upon the body of Christ where the body of Christ will literally be occupying and taking back the land which has been robbed and stolen from them for many, many years.


“Yes, in this era, I'm not just causing my church to rise up and be a spiritual influence, but they will literally occupy lands and nations where the enemy has sought to buy up the land and to squash out the body of Christ”


“The body of Christ will now rise up and take back the land which has been stolen and occupy it and occupy it and occupy it for the great harvest that is at hand”


“You will build Goshen says the lord and you build the eagles nests, and the ranches of restoration. You will establish the new houses of prayer and the hubs of my glory”


“So do not give up now. Do not retreat now for this is your moment, says the Lord. Stand firm at this threshold. Do not look to the left or to the right”


“Do not allow the enemy to rob you of your focus. Close your eyes, worship me and step through that doorway says the Lord. For this shall be an era of the open doorway”


“This shall be an era of the double door swinging open wide. An invitation into encounter with me. It's an era of revisioning with me. It's an era of dreaming with me. It's an era of stepping into abundance and a season of seeing the recompense from all that was lost and stolen, both personally and corporately”


“So get ready, says the Lord, for I shall do it in this moment at this threshold. Step over”

Right now, many are going through what I call transition opposition, when God transitions you into a new assignment, a new role, or moves you to a new location, and suddenly, warfare, attacks, and opposition arise. It’s the constant barrage of nonstop drama, issues, and distractions, simply because the enemy is trying to discourage you, make you second-guess, and even regret following the call of God to transition where He was leading you. It’s the same playbook every time. As a family that God has led and moved around the United States and Australia many, many times, having now done two international moves, navigated visas, and all the complexities of moving with kids to follow the call of God, I can tell you: transition opposition is real, and the enemy’s tactics do not change. It happens before the move, during the move, and after the transition. The pre-transition phase is when the enemy sends discouragers from all angles, even speaking “thus saith the Lord” to try to convince you that what you’re doing is either an Ishmael, out of step, out of timing, or to make you feel like you missed God entirely. In pre-transition it can also come with confusing situations and mixed insight and revelation, or drama to take your eyes off the course before you. But the greatest opposition often comes when you actually step into that new place, role, or location. Suddenly, you’re not only dealing with the principality of the region you’ve entered, facing new giants in the land, just like Joshua and the Israelites, but you are dealing with constant and subtle attacks. It’s when you’re hit with incessant little irritations from all sides, all designed to make you question: Did I miss it? Am I speaking to you right now? I know many of you reading this have recently taken steps of faith. You’re doing your best to hear the voice of the Lord, but when issues arise, when your finances are drained, when sickness hits your household, when strife enters your family or marriage, it’s easy to wonder: God, are we alone in this? There are so many elements to beginning again, and the heart process of transition can be overwhelming. It’s easy to feel like you made the wrong decision. And let’s be honest, witchcraft often increases in these seasons. There’s slander, opposition, and people speaking against you. It can feel like you’re constantly under fire, like time-wasting distractions are popping up everywhere, draining your energy when you’re already exhausted from the move. But this morning, I was reminded of Paul’s story in Acts 28. He was shipwrecked, stranded, and probably questioning how he ended up there. And honestly, in many seasons of transition, Christy and I have felt the same way - shipwrecked. Have you? I’ve felt like I led my family down the wrong path. I’ve cried out, God, did I really hear You? Why are we shipwrecked? But in that story, Paul lands on the island of Malta which interestingly means “place of honey” And on his first night there, in front of everyone, he is bitten by a snake. “Paul gathered a bundle of brushwood and, as he put it on the fire, a viper, driven out by the heat, fastened itself on his hand. When the islanders saw the snake hanging from his hand, they said to each other, ‘This man must be a murderer; for though he escaped from the sea, the goddess Justice has not allowed him to live.’ But Paul shook the snake off into the fire and suffered no ill effects.” Acts 28:3-5 And Paul does something simple yet profound: he shakes the snake off into the fire. The locals were watching, expecting him to die. But when he didn’t, they declared that he must be a god. This story gives us deep insight into transition opposition. Paul was stepping into a new land he had never been before, and that snake represented not only attacks and irritations but the principality of the region itself. And what did he do? He shook it off into the fire. So what does that mean for you and me? It means that in transition, we cannot be discouraged or distracted. We must shake off the witchcraft, shake off the slander, shake off the distractions, and throw them into the fire. We have to remember what the word of God says; Greater is He that is in you than he that is in the world.” 1 John 4:4 I have given you authority to trample on snakes and scorpions and to overcome all the power of the enemy; nothing will harm you.”Luke 10:19 The wicked flee though no one pursues, but the righteous are as bold as a lion.” Proverbs 28:1 Yes, transition is unsettling. Yes, stepping into a new place takes time. But we have authority. We have dominion. We have the power of the Holy Spirit. And we cannot let distractions and discouragement deter us. And here is something I do know and have seen every time - God is a God of recompense! I believe right now the Lord is saying: Where you have walked through robbery, I will restore. Where you have endured pain and drama, I will restore. Your responsibility? Do not be distracted. Shake the snake off into the fire. The “place of honey” is yours! Occupy it! Doug be bullied! But I want to end with this warning: We need extra discernment right now. I’ve seen it too many times where undiscerning Christians embrace the snake instead of shaking it off. Some even kiss the snake, aligning with that which is demonic, tainted, and defiled in a new season. The enemy effectively poisons their well before they even begin their journey. So I’m praying right now for discernment over you. “The Spirit clearly says that in later times some will abandon the faith and follow deceiving spirits and things taught by demons.” 1 Timothy 4:1 That’s the trap set for those who don’t discern well. Stepping into a new season but allowing defilement in. So discern well friends! So in this season of transition; Be very careful who you allow around you and what doors you open. Be cautious about what information you share and with whom. Be mindful of where you cast your pearls. Be intentional about what phone conversations you have and what messages you entertain. It might seem excessive, but it’s not. The snakes are coming from every angle, but they cannot harm you, unless you give them access. Transition opposition can actually be your greatest season of multiplication and increase. So consecrate this season to the Lord. Treat it as holy. Treat it as sacred. And watch as God settles you, establishes you, and launches you into the new anointing and mantle He has given you. Now, shake the snake off into the fire!

I have a word for those who feel like their brook has dried up. Those who feel as though their financial wells have run dry. There has been an assignment against the people of God in this season, an attempt to deplete your resources right when you need an abundance to build what God has called you to build. But here’s what happens when the well dries up: there is no movement. When the well runs dry, when the river ceases to flow, when financial resources dwindle, there is stagnation. The enemy knows that if he can dry up your wells, your resources and provision, he can keep you stuck. In 1 Kings 17:7-16, Elijah encountered a similar season of drought when the brook had dried up. The Lord directed him to Zarephath, where he prayed over the oil, and as long as they continued putting out jars, the oil kept flowing, filling every empty vessel. This is not just about personal provision, this is about Kingdom building for the greatest harvest of souls the earth has ever seen. We are standing at the threshold of a massive influx of people coming into the Kingdom, and God is looking for those who will build storehouses, training centers, apostolic hubs, and places of discipleship to contain the harvest. Movements must be established, and foundations must be laid. Yes, this is a season where the infrastructure for harvest must be established, and God is searching for builders and pioneers to accomplish it. The Lord has been highlighting that we must be ready to receive the flood of souls that is about to pour in. Many of you have been given blueprints, visions for revival centers, houses of prayer, missions bases, and creative hubs to disciple and equip people. But it feels like the resources have not come. Many have been asking, “God, I don’t understand what’s happening. I’ve been sowing faithfully. I’ve been giving and tithing, yet my wells seem to be drying up.” There has been a targeted attack against finances, small foxes have been stealing from the vine (Song of Solomon 2:15). These are some areas where I saw people being robbed: -Small, hidden financial losses accumulating over time -Unexpected emergencies and circumstances draining resources -Bad investments, contracts, partnerships, and business deals -Governmental and systemic financial oppression -Religious systems and misalignments -Delayed inheritances and financial breakthroughs The enemy has tried to rob, delay, dry up, and block the flow of provision, but the Lord is declaring: “Where the well has dried up, I am now releasing a flood of provision and breaking the assignment of lack. I am releasing the gold needed to build. I am releasing the provision to establish My plans in the earth. Where the enemy has stolen, I will restore. Where the wells have dried up, I will cause a fresh outpouring. I am funding My movements. I am resourcing My builders. I am providing for My pioneers. Do not fear, for I am unlocking what has been withheld!” Also, I want to highlight that there is a direct connection between financial drought and the Jezebel spirit. Think of what took place when Jezebel and Ahab ruled the land - a drought came! Jezebel’s witchcraftdisrupts financial flow. If you’ve noticed financial struggles during seasons of heavy spiritual warfare, this is part of the enemy’s strategy. But right now, God is canceling that assignment! He is warring against the attacks on finances, and we are stepping into a season of great stewardship and Kingdom wealth. I want to pray over you right now: For your wells to be full again and for brooks to flow once more. For dried-up jobs, finances, and provision to be restored. For debts to be paid off. For those whom God instructed to sow into you to be reminded and moved to obey. For unexpected sources of provision—divine connections, supernatural opportunities, and people moved by the Spirit to bless you. For the financial outpouring needed to build the places for harvest, disciple the flood of souls, and establish the movements God has placed in your heart. The provision you need to step into your destiny and calling, to build what God has told you to build, is coming now in the mighty name of Jesus! Lastly, I pray for those who have been attacked in legal battles over finances. The Lord is going to restore what the enemy has stolen, your time, your money, your health, all of it! These attacks have robbed you of the capacity to do what is in your heart to do. But now, by faith, step into what God has told you to do! The key in the story of Zarephath is this: “Put out the jars.” What does this mean practically? Move by faith. Get things in order. Start preparing as if the provision is already here. Take steps forward as if the finances have already arrived. And the oil will come, in Jesus name!

Are you a prophetic voice but feel shut down, muzzled, wounded, or disabled after many years walking through the church system or the charismatic jungle? Or maybe you don’t just feel disabled but you feel afraid of stepping out in a time where the current prophetic culture is being shaken along with the compromised church? In three weeks we are launching our Wild Ones Collective - a year of prophetic training that doesn’t just sharpen your gift but refines your heart and character. Because we are done with fake celebrity prophets giving the prophetic calling a bad name, when the real ones have been dragged through the mud. We are done with counterfeits, show offs, illusionists, and sideshow performers when the church needs the real deal voices to arise. God is raising voices in this hour who are not led by pain, ego, or ambition, but by fire, purity, and love. If your spirit is burning as you read this, you already know, this is for you!
