WE ARE IN A GOTCHA MOMENT - THE ENEMY HAS OVERPLAYED HIS HAND & GOD'S PLAN FOR AMERICA WILL NOT BE OVERTURNED!

(Transcript of a word spoken on Nov 18th 2020)

As I just was in worship yesterday I began to prophesy “Gotcha gotcha gotcha, the enemy has overplayed his hand!” “Gotcha, gotcha, gotcha the enemy has overplayed his hand!”. And as I began to prophesy this, I began to see in the spirit and I saw that just like in a game of cards his hand was suddenly flipped over, like what you see in the movies where there’s someone who’s been cheating at a game of poker, it was like suddenly you saw the cheat card that was in their hands, and that they have been cheating all along, that they have been doing things in hiding, in secret all along. Then the Lord said to me, “The enemy doesn’t have the cards that people think he does”.

And I heard the Lord say “You are about to see the greatest gotcha moments!” We are about to see the greatest gotcha moments revealed in the earth. We are about to see all the areas and the places the enemy has had his hand in the nations. What I saw then in the spirit, I saw tentacles stretching out from the earth, and it was weaving its way through the nations like a root-system, that was weaving itself through the nations, and suddenly every single area that the enemy had been weaving his lies, was suddenly being revealed, and suddenly being shown for what it was. Every tentacle was traced back to this root. A network of evil assignments suddenly uncovering the source. We are about to see this in the nations. We are about to see where the enemy’s hand.

We need to pray Grace and Mercy over the people, who don’t even know they are puppets right now. We need to pray Grace and Mercy over people, who don’t even know they are on strings right now, and they don’t even know it. They are so many areas within society, and I would even say within the church, they are just people being on strings, not even know they are part of a network, that the enemy has been doing to cover up his game in the nations, and we are about to see that overturned.

THE AWAKENING OF THE CHURCH & THE TALL TREE MADE LOW

Why do I believe that God is about to overturn this? It is because we have never seen such awakening of the Body of Christ. I am not speaking this politically, I am talking about how we as the Body of Christ, have stepped into our awakening in 2020 and call to prophesy and pray, and what has our prayer and intercession done? Our prayer and intercession have just begun to reveal and expose the things that have been warring against the very revival and outpouring that God has even wanting to release on the Earth, and God is saying “It is gotcha time for the enemy. It is gotcha time for where there has been evil that has gone on unchecked and unseen”. For too long the body of Christ has let it happen because we have not dug deep enough to look and see that it is in our own back yard. I keep hearing “The bad tree is being cut down at the root system, and the righteous tree is being raised up” I believe that God is saying that in the nation of America right now, the bad tree is being cut down, and the righteous tree is rising up in America!, In Ezekiel 17:24, he says this:

“All the trees of the forest will know that I the Lord, bring down the tall tree, and will make the low tree grow tall. I dry up the green tree and make the dry tree flourish. I the Lord have spoken, and I will do it.”

I am prophesying over the United States of America right now, that the tall tree is being made low, and the low tree is being made tall. That God is raising up the righteous remnant in America, that we are about to see even in the nations, righteousness that is going to reveal itself, and, it’s going to save the Nation of America and the Nations.

It’s time for righteousness to go forth, to be released in the Earth. I feel like this is also personal for some people right now, I believe this is like the season where you are about to see the exposure of the enemy's hand in different places of your life, and God is about to say “Gotcha!” You have been going through all these difficult areas, the warring against your marriage, family, and your finances, and God says “It’s gotcha time!” and you are about to have that gotcha moment where you see clearly, and you say “I am not going to allow that happen ever again!” I feel like God is restoring the years the locust has eaten for so many people as it is revealed. The scripture says;

“Many are the afflictions of the righteous but the Lord will deliver him from every single one of them.”

Don’t stop right now. Don’t think, “Well maybe I have just contended long enough, I have prayed long enough and now it’s my time to stop, I need to put my sword in the shelf,” and God says “No, the weapons of My warfare are mighty!” You are about to see the recompense, you are about to see what your prayers have been bringing. You are about to see the breaking of that assignment, that bondage, and those cycles that have come against you and your family and your children and your health be broken in the mighty name of Jesus. I feel like it’s such a tipping point in the body of Christ, such a tipping point, we don’t even realize what our prayers and intercession have accomplished, we don’t even realize what God is doing.

STRENGTH TO THE TIRED AND BURNT OUT

You have said “I can barely make it another day, I am so tired”. There are people who have been feeling extraordinarily tired and weary this season, I want to pray for you. I feel like God wants to release strength. You are about to feel a fresh passion and fresh fire in your spirit. God right now, I ask just for those being tired and weary, for those who have been feeling just like want to believe this but I am just exhausted. God right now refresh the weary, Father even right now they are feeling they are being cut down low, Father you are going to make them high, you are going to restore them, restore Father their youth and their strength, they are going to rise up on wings of eagles, in Jesus mighty name, Amen.

UPSETTING THE APPLE CART

There is an overturning taking place in media right now, and the phrase I heard in my spirit was “I am upsetting the apple cart”. The idiom means “to spoil carefully laid plans, to reveal things that have been hidden or things that have been not exposed”. When people say, “don’t upset the apple cart”, it means “don’t go against the flow”. I believe this is twofold, I believe this is about right now that God is saying “I am actually disrupting the flow, I am disrupting the normal way of doing things. I am disrupting the plans of the enemy”. It reminds me of Job 5:12;

"He thwarts the plans of the crafty, so that their hands achieve no success"

I believe it’s almost like a psalm 55 kind of recompense, when there have been things that are lurking behind the scenes, God is literally upsetting the apple cart of the enemy right now. Regarding media, I really felt the Lord speaking to me that we are at the beginning of a reckoning day for media. The media have been operating in the second heaven, jezebelic realm for a long time as the prophets of Baal, governing the airwaves, lying to the world, and disrupting the flow of the prophets. This is partly because the prophets haven’t been speaking and did not occupy this space. The prophets of Baal have taken up an office where they are not meant to, it’s a violation of design.

I believe there is about to be some kind of revealing to the network of lies and deception that God is bringing reckoning to. I believe that where there has been deceit, where there has been deception, where there has been the hand of the enemy actually pulling people on strings, is right now, being dealt with, and God is bringing reckoning to those areas. I believe God is going to put “a spanner in the works”, He is going to reveal the enemy's hand in censorship and the plan ti shut down the voice of the church in this critical time.

God is upsetting the apple cart even in your own life, he is upsetting all those areas where it’s Jezebel’s spirit that has actually been manipulating scenarios around you, and they are about to be broken and severed in the name of Jesus.

THE PROPHETIC UPSETTERS ARE EMERGING

The Prophets are emerging. We are again in the days of Elijah, and the real Prophets are coming out of the cave saying “I am done being fed bread and water in the Cave, hiding from my destiny, and now is my time to come out! I am going to confront the areas that the Prophets of Baal, have been prophe-lying, speaking the wrong things, and just spreading the lies of the enemy, calling good evil and evil good”.

And it’s time the prophets rose up and said things plainly and were not afraid to say it. Even right now I break the fear and the intimidation that’s come against you. I break it in the name of Jesus, and I prophesy that you will rise up right now! I prophesy that the Prophets will rise, that the Prophetic company will be rebuilt upon the altar again in Jesus mighty name. I prophesy famine is breaking off your life, it’s breaking off America, and the principalities that have ruled the Land are being evicted. The veil that is being cast over the nation by the media is breaking right now in Jesus' name. The spell that Jezebel has had over the nation, and over you is breaking right now in Jesus' name. The heaviness that has been against your mind, the heaviness that has been against your voice, the accusation that has been against the body of Christ, is breaking in Jesus' name. The war against your family is breaking, and the war against your voice, is coming to an end, and your assignment begins NOW in the mighty name of Jesus!

FRESH FIRE AFTER THE WARFARE & THE COMMISSIONING IN CONFLICT

I feel like there is a fresh baptism of fire for the prophets right now in Jesus name especially those who have been through intense warfare. There is going to be a fresh ignition and voices are going to rise up from this place of CONFLICT in Jesus mighty name. We will look back, and we will say “2020 was the year that the prophets awoke!” I’m talking about the governmental Prophets.  We have had a lot of prophetic people but we have not had a lot of prophets, and now it is time for the Prophets to emerge, it is time for the strong ox apostles to emerge, those that are not afraid to oppose demonic culture in the land. that time of refining and decision for the church where the Lord is saying “Will you keep having a fear of men or will you stand with my council?” The prophets that have spoken what they have spoken - stand with it! It is not about your reputation. Right now this shaking is the re-establishing of the personal and corporate covenant where God is saying “Who will you serve?”

THE SHAKING & THE RE-ESTABLISHING, & THE MESS

When we were in DC just a few weeks ago I kept seeing the foundations shaking and there was something emerging up from the earth and I heard the Lord said: “I am re-establishing the Covenant of the land with the Lord, I am re-establishing my Covenant with the land of America, I am re-establishing my covenant right now with the land of America!”

“these are put into the fire, and I will refine them like silver and test them like gold, and they will call on my name, and I will answer them, and I will say “they are my people”, and they will say “the Lord is our God” (Zechariah 13:9).

“And I will Establish my covenant (Genesis 17:7), as an everlasting covenant between me and you, and descendants after you, for generations to come, to be your God, and God of your descendants after you”

Right now God is re-establishing your covenant with him. He is re-establishing your passion, he is re-establishing your heart with Him. Right now, America is being re-established, and will not cave in to defeat, and even now I prophesy that America is in its greatest turning to God. Proverbs 14:4 says:

“Where no  oxen  are, the trough is  clean ; but increase comes by the strength of an  ox .”

Right now all we can see is mess but God is re-establishing his covenant with America, and we are in the greatest turning of a nation, to God, and not away from God. “The church is arising, the church is arising and shining (Isaiah 60), and we are going to see the most glorious days come,” says the Lord.

IT’S A ZIKLAG MOMENT – PURSUE AND RECOVER!

We are in a Ziklag moment right now where David and his Men, and they came back after battle and everything was stolen from them and his men began to get soul-sick - they began to get heartsick. Right now that has been happening with many in the body of Christ. Many are saying “we have lost the war, we have lost it,” and they are beginning to get soul-sick because they are not seeing the recovery, they are not seeing the full picture, and they need the prophetic ones to arise, they need the watchmen to arise, they need the intercessors to arise and say “this is our moment, we can’t let go right now, in this moment. We must HOLD OUR POST!”

In 1st Samuel 30:8, God gave David an instruction to “pursue and you will certainly overtake and succeed in the rescue,” and I believe that this is an instruction and a strategy for us right now because God is saying, “I want you to pursue!” The word pursue means to “chase” and I hear the lord saying “I am chasing the foxes out of America, I am chasing the demonic out of America, I am revealing and exposing the demonic and I am chasing it out of America. The foxes are leaving already, they are leaving, they are realizing their hands are fallen and they are breaking off and running out of America!”

THE TAKING DOWN OF GENERATIONAL GIANTS

We are going to remove the foxes, remove the evil, we are going to overtake it and remove it and clear it from the land. Can we actually see the assignment that has been warring constantly in cycles against America and against the nations suddenly be overthrown in a moment by a people that chose to strengthen themselves in the Lord, come before Him and then go and have the bravery and courage to pursue the thing that many generations before them didn’t have the courage to pursue? Yes! What if in this season God is calling us to take down the giants that many generations haven’t done? What if everybody that is living right now is called to take down the giant that other centuries of believers have not taken down? Right now, we are in a moment, we are in a Ziklag moment.

PROPHETS, LOOK A BIT CLOSER, THERES A WHEEL WITHIN A WHEEL

In a dream recently I saw cogs and wheels turning and as I kept zooming in and zooming in I saw suddenly what had been there that God wanted me to see - it was a small little key, and this speaks about Ezekiel 1:16:

“And I saw something that looked like a wheel on the ground, beside each of the four-faced creatures, this is what the wheel looked like, they were identical wheels, sparkling like diamonds in the Sun. They looked like they were wheels within wheels like a gyroscope”

A gyroscope is a device; in Greek, it actually means “to look”. It’s a device for measuring or maintaining orientation, positioning or an angular velocity. It’s about positioning. I believe it is God speaking to the prophetic people right now in this season that we have to look deeper than we have looked before, we need to dig a little deep not just to see the wheel but the wheel within the wheel, not just the revelation but the revelation within the revelation, and right now in this season, God is speaking to the prophets and He is commissioning all of us to see beyond the realm of sight. He is calling us to live above the second heavens. We have been living and battling with people over opinions; we need to step out of that place and think differently. You can have an opinion but I am telling you something, you are going to lose your calling quickly just hanging out with the demons and angels in the second heaven trying to do their job. Be seated with Him in heavenly places and step out of that place. We need to stop rehearsing the news and calling it prophecy. You can share things but stop rehearsing it and calling it prophecy.

Prophets are the ones who speak the future, they are the ones who speak strategy, they are the ones who speak forth the wheel in the wheel, not just the wheel itself. Prophecy is speaking forth what is happening in the third heavens. We have to see the future. There is an anointing for clarity to see the enemy’s hand when he hasn’t turned it over. There’s an anointing to see the things that have been going on in secret and hidden places.

So, this is my word to the prophets. This week take a look a little deeper. Look a little bit closer and into divine revelation a little further. Strategies are coming, laser accuracy is available because the secret place is open for business and it is your time to step into that place and to see what God is doing. We need to step up higher, we need to realize we are citizens of heaven and that God is going to help us to pray, prophesy, and to speak from a different vantage point.

So if you are wanting clarity, laser accuracy, you want to see the wheel within the wheel, just right now put your hands up to say, “Dear God right now I ask for the wheel within the wheel anointing. We ask for the revelatory anointing. The ‘eyes to see’ anointing. God, we ask that right now Father you will give us the eyes to see and the ears to hear, that Father in this season that our spiritual senses will be on an even greater level of sensitivity but not to the ways of the enemy, not to all the different things that cause us to go into fear and anxiety and the things that may spiral out of control, make us feel defeated. God our sensitivity will be to you, what’s taking place in the heavenly realms. That God, that we will legislate from the highest heaven that we will prophesy from that place and speak from that place. in Jesus mighty name

SLUMBER BROKEN & THE BEGINNING OF A NEW INTERCESSION MOVEMENT

God is waking up those who have been sleeping. Slumber is no longer an option. Being tame is no longer an acceptable option. God is calling forth those who will roar, God is calling forth a remnant who will rise up, God is speaking to the church right now in this hour, he is calling the watchmen to their posts and the midwives to their place where they will contend and see their nation turned to God; their regions turned to God. God is positioning His watchmen and His midwives to contend over local areas and issues as well and He has positioned them to pray.

I feel like there is going to be a whole new intercession movement that even comes into 2021 and it’s going to be a movement of seeing the wells open up in America and the nations, the wells of revival open up again. We are going to contend for the wells, we are going to contend for the places that have been long forgotten, the deep recesses of words, and the destiny that has been forgotten. The ancient things that have been declared over the nations shall begin to be revealed and we are going to see the greatest harvest in history.

We are going to see every thought and demonic force that overshadowed our nation be destroyed. We are going to see eyes open and families begin to worship and come to God as we have never seen before. Jesus, I ask right now for the protection of every single person here. Father your peace, your shalom is over them in the name of JESUS. Raise up prophetic communities, a prophetic remnant, in this hour in the mighty name of Jesus. I feel like God is putting a fresh roar in you. He is putting a fresh fire and fight in you that you haven’t had in a very long time. He is putting a fresh faith in you and HOPE in you in Jesus mighty name.

YOU ARE INBETWEEN RIGHT NOW

By Nate Johnston • July 11, 2025
Inbetween what you were doing and what you are stepping into. Inbetween alignments you had and the tribe coming. Inbetween the last seasons revelation that sustained and carried you and the fresh oil coming from the crushing and warfare. Inbetween language and a message you knew fluently and a new sound in your belly you don’t yet recognise. Inbetween an old mantle that had to go and the mantle you don’t understand or know how to fully trust yet. Inbetween breaking and the incoming breakthrough.. Inbetween feeling exhausted and spiritually crashed, and the fresh fire and awakening stirring inside you. Inbetween the battlefield of your last season and the new day dawning. Inbetween the old wineskin and the fresh outpouring. Inbetween the funeral song and the full recovery. Inbetween the robbery and the recompense. And this is where the ground under your feet feels shaky. Because it’s the garden of gethsemane and instead of praying and prophesying you just want to sleep through it. You want to be anaesthetised instead of enduring the unknown. But I’m writing to you today to say.. ENGAGE! Wake up mighty church. For you aren’t lost. You are the way makers. The soldiers of the breach! And this is a moment where PRAYER and prophecy will unlock the way. Lift your voice mighty ones!

FOR THOSE BURNING THE PLOW & PUTTING ON A NEW MANTLE

By Nate Johnston • July 11, 2025
At first, stepping into a mantle feels unfamiliar and daunting. It’s like the moment that Elijah threw the mantle around Elisha. It was a moment of decision. It was a moment of knowing something needed to be let go. Something had to be forfeited that felt comfortable, that felt… normal. That felt effortless. And I believe that many right now are in this uncomfortable and awkward place where you’re holding on. This awkward and uncomfortable place where there’s something new on your shoulders, and it’s forcing you to a decision because you can’t hold both. You have this mantle, this activity, this assignment, this calling. You’ve been walking in that. You know how to do it well. You know how it operates. You know what it does. Yet there’s this strange sense you’re meant to burn it to the ground and move into something new that feels unfamiliar, that feels unusual, that even feels not like you. It feels like death to everything you’ve ever known about yourself and what you’re called to do. And it feels like a moment where you’re in this awkward place of deep surrender, heart circumcision, and having to yield and surrender all your plans and expectations to God. It’s a moment where the Lord is saying to you, “There’s something greater I have for you. I know it doesn’t make sense right now. I know this is not what you expected that I would put in your lap. Yet, this is what carries my glory. And today the Lord is saying, Will you choose me? Will you choose my glory? Will you choose to step into a greater mantle that’s going to lead you and your family forward for the days to come? Will you surrender your idea of your calling and your destiny? Will you lay down your dreams even to pick up mine? And as you do, I will cause you to flourish and thrive. I’ll cause you to expand to the left and to the right, where you’ve been living in survival, where you’ve been playing it safe, comfortable. This is your breakout. Place mantle upon your shoulders and watch me move mightily upon your life. It’s time to shift out of the dysfunction that’s been sitting there as you’ve been in autopilot, going through the motions. It’s time to step into that fresh mantle that comes with fresh authority, fresh power, and breakthrough. It’s going to break you out of the prison you don’t even know that you’ve been living in. And for those of you who are asking my advice on how to practically begin to step into this mantle, I would say to begin your day on your face before the Lord, just surrendering everything that’s in your hands and in your heart. If it feels painful, it might be that your identity has been wrapped up in your last season’s activity or in the pain and woundedness of things that happened or didn’t happen in your past season. This is also an opportunity just to lay it at the feet of Jesus. I believe the story of Elisha is so applicable for us now. We want a goodbye ceremony just like Elisha did wanting to say goodbye to his mother and father. We want to spend a season in grief, waving off the past season’s accomplishments and failures. It’s a season that is so seductively trying to keep us bound, when the Lord is actually saying right now, “Will you just shut the door?” Will you just shut the door, and will you step into what you don’t understand as a worship? It’s one of those moments where you just have to close your eyes and say, “Okay, Lord.” I know so many who are going through this right now. I’m going through this right now. I know pastors who are shifting into an apostolic grace. Prophets who are beginning to build things and do things that they never had on their radar. It’s a season where you don’t feel qualified for the thing that God’s calling you into. And you don’t feel anointed. But the ironic thing is you are anointed for it. You just don’t know how to operate in it yet. So my advice to you is: get before the Lord. It’s a threshing floor moment. Bring it before Him. Let Him take the old, and let Him begin to help you step into the new.

THREE ASSIGNMENTS TRYING TO DRAIN YOU RIGHT NOW

By Nate Johnston • July 9, 2025
There are three key assignments at work trying to drain your strength in this season. Recognize them and resist them. The first is a shift in anointing and assignment. We’ve entered a new season where the grace, oil, and unction on your life have moved. What worked before no longer carries the same power, and trying to operate in past mantles or rushing into things prematurely will leave you feeling frustrated, depleted, and under unnecessary warfare. When God’s anointing isn’t on something, it drains you instead of refreshing you. Constant frustration, irritation, and exhaustion are signs that you’re out of alignment. Instead of rushing into action, take time to sit with God and discern what He’s doing now. There is a new mantle, a new message, and a new assignment resting on you. Pour your energy into discovering it in His presence. When you wait on His clarity, you’ll stop operating in trial and error and begin to walk with precision. This is not the time for hurried decisions. The enemy is manufacturing false urgency to pressure you into creating something from the flesh, not the Spirit. But God is never in a rush. If peace isn’t present, neither is His hand. Don’t move until there is clarity. Don’t be seduced into birthing an Ishmael. Wait on the Lord. The second assignment is the attack of familiar voices. As you step into something new, the enemy often uses familiar people and old soul ties to try to gain access. These voices may come under the guise of concern or reconnection, but in reality, they are distractions. They pull at your time, energy, and focus, trying to insert themselves into what God is building in your life. This is the same spirit that came after Nehemiah through Sanballat. Sanballat didn’t want to reconnect; he wanted to tear down what was being built. Nehemiah responded with, “I am doing a great work and I cannot come down.” That must be your posture. The enemy is sending familiar spirits to break your focus and bait you into battles that aren’t yours. Not every voice from the past deserves a response. If you entertain the wrong conversations, you’ll lose momentum in your assignment. Guard your access points. Recognize the manipulation in disguise and don’t mistake surveillance for support. The third assignment is overload. The enemy wants to drain you by keeping you busy, overcommitted, and scattered. This includes saying yes to things outside your grace, getting caught in unnecessary drama, and pursuing good ideas instead of God’s instruction. We live in a world of nonstop information, social media, texts, videos, podcasts, and endless voices. Even spiritual content can become noise when consumed without discernment. This overexposure leads to confusion, decision fatigue, and spiritual numbness. If you don’t slow down and guard yourself, you’ll move out of intimacy with God. The enemy sends wild goose chases, gossip, and spiritual distractions to keep you exhausted and off-track. Guard your mental space right now. Protect your mind and what you feed on. Ask yourself, “What am I consuming that’s clouding my discernment?” If you’re feeling constantly tired, irritated, or foggy, it’s time to unplug and get still. The enemy knows that if he can slowly rob your peace, you’ll make a mistake. So, how do you avoid being drained by these assignments? Stay grounded in the secret place. Make time with God a daily priority. Wait for clarity before you move, and don’t let pressure push you. Discern God’s voice above the noise and set boundaries without apology. Protect your energy from old soul ties and manipulative conversations. Unplug. Stay focused on your assignment and don’t abandon your post for unnecessary battles. Learn to rest without guilt. Test every connection and make sure it brings peace, not confusion. If something pulls you away from clarity, it’s not from Him. And know you’re not crazy. Your job is to pause, discern, protect your oil, and stay aligned. He will take care of the rest.

GOD IS RECLAIMING & RESTARTING YOUR PROPHETIC TIMELINE!

By Nate Johnston • July 7, 2025
Ok, this is a word for those who have been dealing with years of narcissistic robbery.. One of the most pervasive demonic assignments I’ve ever witnessed in my own life and in the lives of many believers is the Jezebelic assignment. It’s been normalized across the body of Christ and in the world, often labeled as narcissism or seen only as a psychological disorder, rather than a spiritually rooted one. Because of this, people don’t know how to discern it, confront it, or evict it. It has become more than a spiritual stronghold. It’s become a culture. A way of living, responding, and relating that is deeply destructive. I grew up in this environment, and I would say 90% of the body of Christ has, too. Culture enforces it. Our world, in many ways, is systemically narcissistic. It has caused deep bondage and emotional wounds, even manifesting as mental and physical illness over time. Last week, as I was sharing prophetic words, going live, and praying over people, we saw many healings break out, especially last Thursday night on our Vision Live. I’m still in awe of what God did. But as I was praying and asking the Lord how He wanted me to address the Jezebelic element, I had a dream. In the dream, I saw a garden that looked completely dead. Roses that had once bloomed were now black, shriveled, and decayed. The whole garden was poisoned. In the middle of it was a deep pit, and out of that pit grew a short, ugly tree. Its roots spread underneath the entire garden. It reminded me of The Secret Garden, a movie I loved as a child. I knew immediately that the dream was from the Lord. He was showing me how the Jezebelic spirit has poisoned the gardens of many believers. It’s been at the center of our spiritual lives, hidden beneath the surface. We’ve tried to tend the garden around it, but we’ve never dealt with the root. Last week, I spoke about catching the foxes from Song of Songs. We manage our pain around this spirit, but now God is saying: Enough is enough. I’m pulling it out. As I continued to pray, the Lord brought me to the story of Naboth’s vineyard in 1 Kings 21. In this passage, Jezebel conspired to steal Naboth’s inheritance so she could give it to Ahab. But Naboth refused to sell. His name in Hebrew means “fruits” or “produce” and is closely tied to the idea of prophetic fruitfulness, legacy, and inheritance. In one translation, it represents “prophecies and words” Naboth’s vineyard is symbolic of the prophetic call, the anointing, the promises, and the inheritance God has placed on your life. But the Jezebel spirit is a thief. It will lie, manipulate, gaslight, and even kill to rob you of that vineyard. Just like in my dream, it seeks to plant toxic roots in the very soil that was meant to bear fruit. It poisons what was meant to be pure. This is exactly what has happened to so many believers. You’ve been fighting invisible warfare against something that’s been spiritual all along. And every time you try to confront it, in churches, in relationships, in ministries, you get gaslit. You’re made to feel like the problem, when in fact, the spirit that’s been tolerated is the real issue. But the Lord is saying now: I am taking the root out. I am exposing it, and I am evicting it. That’s why it’s uncomfortable. That’s why everything feels like it’s coming to the surface. That’s why your mind has been under siege. Because a false foundation is being torn out, so a holy one can be laid. Then I heard the Lord say something that hit me deeply, and I believe it will hit your spirit too: “As I uproot this spirit from your life, you will not only be healed in your mind. You will be made whole in your body, your finances, your marriage, your family, and your destiny. I’m not just healing you, I’m reordering your life from beginning to end. I am restarting your prophetic timeline.” Let me say that again: God is restarting your prophetic timeline. Imagine that dead garden in your life, the one you thought was beyond recovery. Now imagine the root being pulled out, light returning, and life beginning to flourish again. That garden represents your prophetic call, your purpose, your destiny, and the words spoken over you. The things that felt delayed, blocked, or stuck will begin to move. Where there’s been no favor, favor will flow. Where doors were shut, doors will now open. You will reclaim your vineyard. God says, “I am reclaiming you. This is a Jubilee moment in your life. I am demanding repayment of the robbery of the Jezebel spirit. Everything stolen must be returned. Your inheritance, your health, your time, your voice, your clarity, your legacy, it’s all being reclaimed. I am giving you back the vineyard that was stolen.” Now let me pray: In the mighty name of Jesus, I command every Jezebelic assignment, every generational stronghold that has taken root in your life, to be uprooted now. Be broken from your heart, your calling, your destiny, and your mind. Be uprooted in Jesus’ name. I decree Jubilee over you. The Jezebel spirit is being overthrown. The vineyard is being reclaimed. Your prophetic garden is coming alive again. The delay is over. Cycles are breaking, and the play button has been hit. Your prophetic timeline starts again today. And finally, I release this charge to you. This moment will require courage. It will require boundaries. You will be called to confront some relationships, environments, and mentalities that have tolerated the spirit God is removing. It’s time to say, “As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord, “ and walk in it. No more compromise. No more confusion. No more being stuck and your destiny on hold. Your vineyard is yours again in Jesus' name!
