THE WAR HAS BEEN ON RECLAIMING YOUR ANCIENT WELLS

THE WAR HAS BEEN ON RECLAIMING YOUR ANCIENT WELLS

By Christy Johnston

The Holy Spirit has been impressing ‘Ancient Wells’ upon my heart in recent weeks. This morning I woke up and heard Him say, “I am calling my people to strike ancient wells of revival in this hour.” I saw a vision in the spirit of a fierce battle that has been waging in the second heavens. A battle of ferocity that has been over the reclaiming of these ancient wells. Many have been finding themselves in the thick of this fight, not realising what it was all over, and many thought they have been waging an insignificant war. However, you have indeed been battling for ancient wells, though you may not have known it. If you have found yourself in a fight of confusion, distraction and disillusionment, it is because God has marked you with revival for this very hour. The enemy sees this divine marking upon your life and has unleashed every distraction possible to try and prevent you from crossing over this threshold and reclaiming these wells. Significantly, his tactic has been to prevent you from the revelation of what you were fighting for.

STRIKE, DON’T RETREAT

You might be questioning what I mean by ancient wells. It is the wells of contending prayers of many past generations, the promises of God that are yet to be unearthed, and the wells of revival that our past ancestors cultivated. We see all throughout scripture how God honoured the prayers of His people, long after they were gone. Likewise, I believe that there is a window of opportunity opening to us right now where the Father is calling you and I to strike the ground of ancient wells, ancient prayers and ancient revivals. I believe we are living in a time where we will see with our own eyes, the fulfilment of prayers that were contended for long ago and the fulfilment of revivals that died out before their time. I keep seeing in my spirit a reawakening of revivals like Azusa Street and the Welsh Revival to name a few. I believe the heart of God is not just to reawaken these movements, but to pour out EVEN GREATER than what was seen there and SUSTAIN them through us. His heart isn’t just for us to recapture these wells, but to sustain them.

I hear the Lord saying that you and I will get to walk in the fruits of fulfilment of prayer that was contended for from hundreds, even thousands of years ago.

The opposition you have been facing, the disappointments, the disorientation, it has all been an attempt to deter you from the ancient wells that are within your reach. I believe we are in a time of commissioning right now, where the Lord is assigning new mantles and assignments to His sons and daughters, and it is through these assignments that revival will be commissioned and sustained in us and through us. There is a great repositioning happening within the body of Christ across the earth as the Lord is moving His children into positions of greater authority for His greater purposes. The repositioning is why you have been feeling uncomfortable, but don’t give into the discomfort and run back for creature comforts, surrender to His movements and you will see His glory poured out through you. I saw in my spirit how many are on the edge of their breakthrough, but are feeling the overwhelming desire to retreat.

IT’S TIME TO CHARGE

Through all of this, the Holy Spirit has been reminding me of the battle of Beersheba in 1917, where a small number of Australian and New Zealand military charged on behalf of Israel on long withheld Palestinian fortresses. The commander of this Anzac army recognized the window of opening, no one had been able to take this ground, but his soldiers and horses were not only exhausted but in desperate need of water. On the other side of the garrison was Abrahams well and many other wells that were vital to their survival. He knew it was now or never and chose to seize the moment. He commanded his cavalry to charge across the war field on horseback, straight into enemy gunfire with only their bayonets for weapons. General Grant gave the order personally to the 12th Light Horse Regiment saying, “men you’re fighting for water. There’s no water between this side of Beersheba and Esani. Use your bayonets as swords. I wish you the best of luck”. Both the 4 th and 12 th Light Horse brigades charged on Beersheeba, which sent the enemy forces that were in the trenches into a sheer panic.

No one expected a cavalry-style charge, and it is recorded that the sound of the horses hooves thundering towards them sent them into chaos and confusion. As a result, the enemy soldiers were unable to lower their aiming sights with clarity, therefore minimising the casualties and basically giving the Anzac armies open access to the garrison. The Anzacs were able to launch their horses over the garrison and take control of the town, and it is recorded in history books that: ‘The success of the charge was in the shock value and sheer speed in which they took the town.’ Both their sheer desperation for water and their courage allowed British troops to reclaim land on behalf of Israel, and seize the well of Abraham, satisfying the thirst of entire armies. Beersheba means, ‘Well of the Oath’ or ‘Well of Seven.’ This points to the ancient wells of His Promises – His oath to us for this moment in time. I believe we are in a historical time of history where our thirst for an outpouring is causing us to charge at the thresholds of ancient wells. I hear the Holy Spirit asking our generation, “Are you thirsty for more of me? Are you thirsty for an outpouring? Your desperation will be seen in your charge.”

Nehemiah 9:25 They captured fortified cities and fertile land; they took possession of houses filled with all kinds of good things, wells already dug, vineyards, olive groves and fruit trees in abundance. They ate to the full and were well-nourished; they reveled in your great goodness.

SEIZE THE ANCIENT WELLS.

I believe we are standing at a similar window of opportunity. It is now that we charge in the spirit and reclaim what is rightfully ours. It is now that we strike on the promises that God has given us. I do however, sense the warning of His Spirit that it will however, require a unity of Spirit within the church. This kind of charge will require the laying down of 'self'. How exactly do we respond to all of this? How do we partner with what He is saying and asking of us? Our battle isn’t one of natural means, but one that we fight in the spirit. Beersheba also means ‘Well of Seven.’ When we look at the Hebrew meaning of the number 7, it means rest, wholeness, completeness, being ripe, order, stability and holiness. It also is the number of the Temple, Adonai’s house. We rest (day 7) in the finished work of the Messiah. So how do we charge, while at the same time being in rest? It seems almost contradictory, but it’s not. It is not the kind of ‘rest’ where we lay back and lie on a hammock sipping cocktails and wait on Him to do everything, it is the kind of rest where we are in partnership with what He has promised. The kind of rest where we take hold of His promises and decree them, refusing to move from peace within them. While the world may be waging chaos all around us, with our prophetic eyes we SEE what God has promised – an outpouring of His Spirit, and we REFUSE to MOVE from that place of rest UNTIL we see this promise fulfilled. We decree to the impossibilities and giants in front of us and declare, "THIS DAY, the Lord has given you into OUR hands. This DAY we will SEE the Ancient Wells burst forth with the gushing streams of His Spirit." This kind of rest will cause rivers of His living water to bring stability where there is chaos, completeness where there is brokenness, restore order where there is disorder and holiness where there is unrighteousness running rampant in the Nations.

We are living in a day where we will get to see the bursting forth of these Ancient wells.

DON’T LET GO NOW.

You may be exhausted from holding on to the promise, but this is where you strike and keep on striking, you are on the threshold of your breakthrough, you are about to charge over enemy garrisons and reclaim your well. Don’t stop declaring. Don’t stop partnering with what He has promised, for you will see His deliverance. You are not contending for your ancient wells alone, but for the ancient wells of the Nations. A desperate and thirsty world is crying out for an authentic outpouring of His Spirit. A world lost in chaos and confusion, taken captive by the mindsets and lies of the enemy, they are crying out and thirsting for water… the water of His Spirit. It is up to you and I to lay our lives down and press into the longings of His Spirit, press into His promises and CHARGE on what is rightfully ours. These Ancient Wells are promises stored up in the heavenly realm for you, for your family, for your children and your children’s children. When you strike the ground for them, you are going to see His Spirit pour out over your life and the lives of those around you.

The Nations are waiting to drink from the rivers of His living water THROUGH your life. The time is now.

RELATED prophetic WORDS:

By Nate Johnston November 20, 2024
A few days ago, I shared a few thoughts I had randomly posted on social media about how things were going to look different in the days ahead. They bubbled out of my spirit because it just felt overwhelmingly obvious and apparent that there had been a shift. But I felt I needed to give a little more language to this. Now that we are here, I can see how the last four years have been leading us to this very point. Maybe even the last 7 years too. While this word is not political in nature—and regardless of where you stand—it has to be said - the recent election was a major tectonic shift, not only for the United States but for the world. It was that significant. A marker moment. In the spirit, I could see it—a major eruption in the deep that ignited thousands more around the world. I knew right then and there that things were never going to be the same again. It’s crazy how one event can spark so many others, but that’s exactly what it felt like. The world I knew and the life I knew before that day were going to be different. It’s like when 9/11 happened. The world changed in a moment. And in the same way—except positively—this one event converged with the timing of heaven, where God was unleashing something upon the earth. WELCOME TO THE NEW DAWN I believe we are at the dawn of a new day in the body of Christ. But a change that I believe is going to challenge us all deeply. It’s going to challenge us to abandon the survival mentality we’ve grown used to over the years. Suddenly, a door has opened and we are on the other side of something. Soon we will see that the battles of yesterday will fade away as we discover we are no longer in that valley we have camped in for years. We will no longer wrestle with many of the battles that defined the previous season. We may no longer deal with constant red tape and bureaucracy, delays, hope deferred, constant difficulties, or relentless warfare over simple things. But it’s not that there are no battles anymore—it’s just that the nature of the battle has shifted. When Joshua led the Israelites into the Promised Land, the battle didn’t stop—it changed form. In the wilderness, their struggles were rooted in the harsh environment, discouragement, disappointment, and the mindset of slavery in Egypt. But as soon as they entered the Promised Land, they were surrounded by incredible wealth, resources, and food. They no longer faced the wilderness battles they once did. Instead, they faced new giants in the land. The battle shifted from mental and emotional challenges to an offensive conquest to take territory and evict its inhabitants. After years in the wilderness the Israelites had to learn to wield their sword again and fight with authority. But to effectively wage war in their new season, they had to believe they were powerful and walk in their authority. I believe that’s where we are right now - a season of governmental occupation. The things we’ve been contending for and persisting in may no longer be relevant. We’re shifting into an entirely new playing field of kingdom conquest. And if you are wondering what the next chapter looks like this is what I see. Battles and dead giants. Challenges and great victories. The stakes have gone up but you and I were born for this. It’s going to cause the spiritually dead to come alive and run into their destiny! Beyond this moment, the body of Christ is stepping into something radically different and we need new eyes to see it so we don’t fall back into the death of routine. THE WINESKIN IS CHANGING For years we have known that the old, tattered wineskin we’ve held onto for so long is no longer effective. It cannot sustain the move of God starting to crash on our shores. In fact, when God shows up our current wineskin will seem embarrassing if we are still holding it. Many will see that they haven’t been ready. We’ve been trying to contain God, use God, monopolize God, and brand every revival under our banner. But worse we have believed revival to be one thing based on old seasons when it now looks completely different. There will be no experts beyond this point —only novices at the feet of Jesus. Those sitting on lofty thrones of ambition and milestones will find their structures collapsing. We can no longer build our lives around museums of the past. We must fix our gaze on the future and where God is leading us. A NEW IDENTITY This is a season where God is redefining how we see ourselves in Christ. Over the last four years, God’s people have seen themselves in such a small light. We’ve underestimated who we are in Him, and God is now reinventing us. He’s reminding us of who we are. God is calling us to pull out the stones of remembrance. He’s saying: “Remember where you’ve been. Remember what I’ve brought you through. Now look ahead to where you’re going.” This is the dawn of a new day, a new beginning. We are shifting from survival mentality and wilderness thinking into a place of thriving. We are rediscovering what it means to live with inheritance. We’re returning to sonship and being fathered by God in ways we’ve lost sight of. We’re returning to the BURNING of the original call and fire in our bellies that sent us out. The old map is the new map I hear the lord saying. DELIVERANCE AND RESTORATION This is an hour of deliverance—not just from old methods and traditions but also from the things we’ve normalized. We’ve normalized mental health struggles, depression, and dysphoria. We’ve coddled demons and called it loving or comforting. Now, God is addressing these areas where the church has fallen for other lovers. He’s confronting the lies we’ve believed about ourselves and about Him. As we step into this new day, it will be both confronting and freeing. It’s the tension of saying: “Thank God that season is over!” But also: “Oh no, it’s time to put my big boy pants on.” Yes, this change requires greater maturity and responsibility. THE CICADA STUCK ON THE TREE As I shared that small word I had a glimpse of a childhood memory. Of a favorite tree I used to climb that regularly had hundreds of cicada shells on it. I knew the lord was speaking to me about the church. You see, we have talked for years about the new era, the crossing over, the new wineskin, and the changing of the guard in the church. We have said statements like “The age of empires is over, and the days of family have begun.” But what does that mean and what is the cicada? The cicada is the church and the shell is the church coming out of an old and outdated way. We have been in a season of grace to transition out but now it’s time to leave it in the tree. Let it die. And finally come back to the original plan. Why because Acts 2 is upon us! We are coming back, full circle to Gods first church and shedding off the layers of man. HUMILITY AND AWAKENING Right now many trying to sustain the old regime are growing weary. They’ll soon realize it’s time to lay down their hats and surrender at His feet. Even those who have been worker bees for the old hive are feeling the pull of this awakening. Blindfolds are coming off en masse. There will be a brief coup—a deviant sect claiming to be the new thing but rooted in humanism and man’s wisdom. They will reject the call to humility. For a while, it may seem to divide prophetic voices. But once the fresh move of God crashes upon the earth, even these will repent and surrender. This move will humble the proud, and brokenness will bring deliverance to the rebellious. We will witness thousands running to the altar to exchange their achievements for a glimpse of His face—the very thing they started out pursuing. ALL FOR HIM What we thought was the kingdom is being redefined. What we thought was Jesus is being made clear. All false gospels are being exposed. In this moment, the Father is delivering us from religion and our own ambitions. He is aligning our calling with His purposes. He is becoming our everything. And I don’t know about you, but I can’t do things the same anymore. It’s no longer a time to fear man, rely on common sense, or prioritize rationale. We must move where He is moving—at all costs. DIAGNOSING THE SEASON The change is in the air. You can feel it. It’s as if the spiritual temperature around you has shifted—something is different, and you can’t ignore it. Here are some practical indicators of a season change: You sense an internal shift. Your desires and appetites have changed. What once satisfied you no longer feels relevant, and you find yourself longing for something new, something deeper. You feel like you can’t go back, even if you tried. The door to the old season has been shut, and there’s no way to reopen it. God is making it clear that what was behind you is no longer an option. There’s an urgency or longing that wasn’t there yesterday. Perhaps you feel a fresh sense of expectancy stirring in your spirit—like the ground beneath you is about to move, and you need to be ready to act. You can feel the weight of the shift. Even if you can’t fully articulate it, you know that the path ahead is uncharted, and God is inviting you to trust Him in a new way. Take time to tune into what the Holy Spirit is saying in this moment. Ask yourself, “What is He calling me to leave behind? What is He drawing me toward? What doors are opening, and which ones have closed?” This is not a time to resist the shift—it’s a time to step into it with faith and courage. God is moving, and He’s calling you to move with Him. PIONEERING A NEW PATH And we have entered a season of fresh pioneering. The old ways of advancing the kingdom will no longer work because God is leading us into uncharted territory. We can’t rely on formulas, traditions, or comfort zones. We must embrace the new path God is carving out before us. This requires us to step out in faith, even when we don’t have all the answers. Pioneering isn’t about having everything figured out—it’s about trusting the One who goes before us. Just as the Israelites had to follow the Ark of the Covenant into the unknown, we must keep our eyes fixed on Jesus and move where He leads. Pioneers it’s time again ti create pathways for others to follow. This is your moment to rise. THE CHARGE TO RENEGADES AND THE NEW DAY SCRIBES And just as we need pioneers, we need untamed renegades and new day scribes and prophets to write the introduction to this new chapter and lead us forward. This is not a time for polished perfection or cookie-cutter ministry. This is a time for wild obedience, raw passion, and unrelenting faith. Renegades, the body of Christ needs your courage. You were made to confront the giants in the land and tear down the altars of compromise. Your boldness will inspire others to rise up and take their place in this new era. Scribes and prophets, your words will ignite fires of revival. Pick up your pens. Open your mouths. The Spirit of God is ready to pour out fresh revelation through you. This generation needs your voice to declare the truths of heaven. Write the blueprints. Prophesy the new path. Lead the charge. We need your untamed hearts to step into this season unafraid of man’s opinions. We need your voices to call the church back to purity and intimacy with Jesus. This is your commissioning moment. I feel to say this - the fresh permission of heaven is upon you! Go where no one else will go. Say what no one else will say. Build what no one else will build. The world is waiting. The church is waiting. Heaven is watching. Let’s turn the page together. “Then the Lord said to Moses, ‘Why are you crying out to me? Tell the Israelites to move on.” Exodus 14:15 “Enlarge the place of your tent, stretch your tent curtains wide, do not hold back; lengthen your cords, strengthen your stakes. For you will spread out to the right and to the left; your descendants will dispossess nations and settle in their desolate cities.” Isaiah 54:2-3 
By Nate Johnston November 19, 2024
On Sunday, the 17th of November 2024, I had a vision of a field being harvested by a massive harvester. As I got closer to the field, I could see that over half of it was not full of wheat but full of weeds. And I said, “Lord, what is this? What are we looking at?” Knowing already, I realized I was seeing the tares among the wheat. I began to feel discouraged that there were actually so many weeds. This isn’t the great harvest that I believed I would see in my lifetime. And the Lord said to me, “No, this is the harvest before the harvest. This is the time of division that brings repentance and a decision for the body of Christ, so that the next harvest we step into will be the great harvest that was prophesied.” It was then that I saw the harvesting machine crush down the weeds into the soil. And then I felt like the Lord was saying, “But this will be one of the most fruitful times, because the weeds that have been working against the wheat all this time will now be used as fertilizer for the harvest.” This is not a time to fear as things suddenly feel more divided, because it’s not a time of polarizing or dividing the church but of bringing those who have not been bearing fruit—and who have been listening to the voice of the enemy—into a time of great decision. “Will they choose Me, or will they choose man? Will they follow Jesus, or will they follow another version of Jesus?” I heard Him say. Friends, I believe that right now we can either look at the division around us on the earth as something negative, or we can see it as part of a harvest that is leading and pointing us to the greater harvest that has been prophesied. It’s not a time to get discouraged or to hang up our tools. It’s not a time to stop speaking or to stop forging ahead. It’s actually a time to celebrate and get ready because God is leading us toward the great harvest. We’re going to see an incredible reaping of souls in the days to come. I truly believe this is the time where the Lord is saying, “Get the barn ready. Get the barn ready for what I’m about to pour out!” Don’t look to the critics or the naysayers. Don’t look to those who are prophesying doom and gloom, because God is not done with America, and He’s not done with the nations. For while there will be great tension and clashing of ideals and kingdoms, this will be the shaking that shakes the church awake and the right way up! Acts 2 is already upon us and our best days are ahead.

We need your untamed hearts to step into this season unafraid of man’s opinions. We need your voices to call the church back to purity and intimacy with Jesus. This is your commissioning moment. I feel to say this - the fresh permission of heaven is upon you! Go where no one else will go. Say what no one else will say. Build what no one else will build. The world is waiting. The church is waiting. Heaven is watching. Let’s turn the page together. “Then the Lord said to Moses, ‘Why are you crying out to me? Tell the Israelites to move on.” Exodus 14:15 “Enlarge the place of your tent, stretch your tent curtains wide, do not hold back; lengthen your cords, strengthen your stakes. For you will spread out to the right and to the left; your descendants will dispossess nations and settle in their desolate cities.” Isaiah 54:2-3

On Sunday, the 17th of November 2024, I had a vision of a field being harvested by a massive harvester. As I got closer to the field, I could see that over half of it was not full of wheat but full of weeds. And I said, “Lord, what is this? What are we looking at?” Knowing already, I realized I was seeing the tares among the wheat. I began to feel discouraged that there were actually so many weeds. This isn’t the great harvest that I believed I would see in my lifetime. And the Lord said to me, “No, this is the harvest before the harvest. This is the time of division that brings repentance and a decision for the body of Christ, so that the next harvest we step into will be the great harvest that was prophesied.” It was then that I saw the harvesting machine crush down the weeds into the soil. And then I felt like the Lord was saying, “But this will be one of the most fruitful times, because the weeds that have been working against the wheat all this time will now be used as fertilizer for the harvest.” This is not a time to fear as things suddenly feel more divided, because it’s not a time of polarizing or dividing the church but of bringing those who have not been bearing fruit—and who have been listening to the voice of the enemy—into a time of great decision. “Will they choose Me, or will they choose man? Will they follow Jesus, or will they follow another version of Jesus?” I heard Him say. Friends, I believe that right now we can either look at the division around us on the earth as something negative, or we can see it as part of a harvest that is leading and pointing us to the greater harvest that has been prophesied. It’s not a time to get discouraged or to hang up our tools. It’s not a time to stop speaking or to stop forging ahead. It’s actually a time to celebrate and get ready because God is leading us toward the great harvest. We’re going to see an incredible reaping of souls in the days to come. I truly believe this is the time where the Lord is saying, “Get the barn ready. Get the barn ready for what I’m about to pour out!” Don’t look to the critics or the naysayers. Don’t look to those who are prophesying doom and gloom, because God is not done with America, and He’s not done with the nations. For while there will be great tension and clashing of ideals and kingdoms, this will be the shaking that shakes the church awake and the right way up! Acts 2 is already upon us and our best days are ahead.
