TO THE DISHONORED, REJECTED, & OVERLOOKED - THIS IS WHY THIS IS YOUR TIME!

TO THE DISHONORED, REJECTED, & OVERLOOKED - THIS IS WHY THIS IS YOUR TIME!

I want to prophesy over God’s people today who have been on the sidelines, especially the voices, prophets, preachers, and pioneers, those who carry a message that hasn’t yet been heard. Generally these are simply those born with spiritual keys and blueprints beyond their time and have had to walk through a myriad of uncomfortable and painful experiences to faithfully steward this call. For years now God keeps saying “Look to the wilderness” because what these ones carry is so precious and pure because of the intense refining they have had to endure. If I’m speaking to you already then this word is simply to encourage you and remind that regardless of what you see, this is your time!

DUE SEASON IS UPON YOU!

We so often we have heard the misuse of phrases such as “This is your time!” or “You were born for such a time as this!” to the point that when it actually is “Our time” we don’t believe it or value it like we should. I feel like God wants to really drive something home to you starting today and into the years to come - THIS REALLY IS YOUR TIME! That’s right. More than ever before we are in a time called “DUE SEASON”. Did you really think that all the years behind you would amount to nothing? Did you really think that God would overlook you? This is due season and the fulfilment of time for those who have been in waiting and worship.

THE HOUR OF FULL ACCEPTANCE & THE AUTHENTIC FAMILY OF GOD

As I’ve been writing for the emerging voices collective which launches in the New Year I’ve been having constant revelation bubbling up from my spirit about How God is revealing and about to reveal and emerge sons and daughters - it’s the outpouring of FULL ACCEPTANCE that comes as a response to the earths cries for sons and daughters!(Romans 8:19)

Romans 8:15 says this; “And you did not receive the “spirit of religious duty,” leading you back into the fear of never being good enough. But you have received the “Spirit of full acceptance,” enfolding you into the family of God.

So much of the baggage and bondage we as voices carry such as rejection, dishonor, and control/abuse can be remedied by the full acceptance and love of the Father which is why He is doing that right now in us. Notice this scripture points to be enfolded into a “family” of God not a Christian club or network. It has to be real. It has to be a safe place and authentically relation. And yes I know this scripture is referring to something more deeply intimate with the Lord not people but there is something God is doing in REAL family right now to apply the healing balm of the acceptance of God to those who have been outcasts their whole lives. This is the revival I see coming to the church and the personal revival that God is bringing to you in this hour.

RENAMED & RE-MANED MISFITS LIVING IN FULL PERMISSION

Let’s stop for a moment. Does that register with you in any way shape or form? Have you struggled to fit your unique calling into a local church or group of believers and felt like a square peg in a round hole? Have you been managed, manipulated, controlled, owned, squashed, and silenced? Have you been through the pain of dishonor and betrayal over and over? Have you constantly lived as the misfit Christian cousin of the mainstream church folk and wondered why God made you the way you are? You may not understand it and you may never have all your questions of your past seasons answered but you need to know today that God has nor forgotten you - in fact THIS IS YOUR MOMENT! God is raising up a a radical movement of misfits for the kingdom to go where no one else will go and to SAY what none else will say! This is the season God is giving the remnant of misfits a new name, a new vision, and a fresh new start. When God told me He was giving them a new name I heard “renamed and re-maned”. So many mighty voices have have their manes shaven off through different trials but watch now as it grows back and God restores double honor to you!

IT’S AN ISAIAH 61 SEASON OF HEALING, REVEALING, RE-ALIGNING, & BURSTING OUTSIDE OF THE WALLS OF THE CHURCH

Only a month ago Christy had a dream where she was in Jerusalem and at a synagogue where people were flooding out of into the street and on the top of the building it said “AD-26”. When we looked it up we were amazed to discover that it was in AD26 that Jesus began his ministry . That very year Jesus began he walked into the synagogue and he read from Isaiah 61. This is what happened;

“He unrolled the scroll and read where it is written, “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, and he has anointed me to be hope for the poor, freedom for the brokenhearted, and new eyes for the blind, and to preach to prisoners, ‘You are set free!’ I have come to share the message of Jubilee,for the time of God’s great acceptance has begun.” After he read this he rolled up the scroll, handed it back to the minister, and sat down. Everyone stared at Jesus, wondering what he was about to say. Then he added, “These Scriptures came true today in front of you.” Luke 4:18-20

This line stood out to me “The great acceptance has begun” but what hit me even deeper is Jesus’ boldness to say “this came true before you today” because he initiated a movement of sons coming into right relationship with God and BACK INTO POSITION. That’s right, many have been out of position, diverted from their original call and purpose through the attacks against what they carry BUT NO MORE!

This move of acceptance is not just a message or revelation of sonship, it’s a tangible encounter with the king of righteousness that shows the whole world what they were created for - to know Him and reveal him! The world is craving to know this simple revelation which is why God is using the outcasts to embody this message to the church and beyond in this season so we can truly be an Isaiah 61 generation that leads the lost to Jesus. We can’t keep just preaching to the choir!

RELIGIONS WINESKIN JUST CAN’T CONTAIN YOU

“Because this is an unusual people I have called, protected, and reserved says the lord. “They will not be tainted by religions double minded ways and love of self and humanistic standards but they will be ones who have braved the attacks of the accuser who sought to silence them and poison them against my church but now I am calling them out of the wilderness and into influence because I have put my spirit upon them to say what I want them to say and they will say it without care of reputation and without agenda. They are pure and won’t try to fit the old wineskin or cater to religions red tape, but will be used as breakers to usher in freedom!”

RECOMMISSIONING & REAWAKENING PRAYER

As I’m writing this I feel the fear of the lord all over me because this isn’t meant to be just a feel good word. This is game-time. You are needed. You can’t keep identifying as an orphan, or a victim. What God placed inside of you was before it’s time so it was never intended to “fit” but to “REFORM” so even that revelation is going to start defining for you why you are valuable to the kingdom. What God is doing in you right now is revealing your true identity to you where you haven’t known or truly believed it and so when the church or other believers rejected you, it easily took you out. Acceptance is right now counteracting every lie that has prevented you from moving on from being a victim into being the overcomer you were made to be. Acceptance is right now doing business with every demonic agreement ever made that has kept you in a holding pattern, chained to people, places, old movements, unhealthy relationships, and words/curses spoken that grounded you and shut up your voice. Can you see how this year especially God has been dealing with all these types of things? Painful in the moment but also so freeing. Let it all go. This is your season, this is your time and you are a move of God waiting to happen so let it happen!

Let me pray a prayer of recommissioning and personal revival over you. Put your hand on your heart and say “Lord I let go of all that is behind me. All that was left undone all that I didn’t understand. I let go of all pain, trauma, fear, betrayal, rejection, abuse, control, and dishonor that shut me down, and I forgive every person who was used to inflict those wounds upon me. I make a choice to sever all ties to those situations and even cycles of pain in my lifetime right now and move into the new day you have waiting for me. I am free, I am accepted, I am loved, and I no longer have to see myself as a victim, in fact I renounce calling myself a victim or an outcast because you call me an outcast no longer”

Now put your hand on your belly and say “Holy Spirit the message, the voice, the song, the words, the creativity, the movement you have placed inside I say to
It right now to REAWAKEN in Jesus name. This is my season, this is my hour and NOTHING will rob or sidetrack me from it again in Jesus name!

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.

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

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.
