Habakkuk 1:4-5 (NKJV)
“Therefore the law is powerless,
And justice never goes forth.
For the wicked surround the righteous;
Therefore perverse judgment proceeds.”
The Lord’s Reply
“Look among the nations and watch—
Be utterly astounded!
For I will work a work in your days
Which you would not believe, though it were told you.”
THE DARKER IT GETS THE BRIGHTER YOU WILL SHINE
I heard the Lord saying ” This will be a new season and I will call it “THE DARKER IT GETS THE BRIGHTER YOU WILL SHINE!” Yes darkness will cover the earth, but something miraculously amazing will begin to happen in and through My people! They will begin to see their need of Me only, and they will begin to see the systems that they have built by their own hands will not sustain them. But oh what dependence upon Me and My power will turn into..It is a day of the supernatural ability of Your God to be on display! It is a day when I will be God to those who will believe! It will be the day of My power!
TRUST ME THROUGH TRIUMPH AND TRAGEDY
I felt the Lord’s excitement as He has waited for this new season and even though He weeps for the darkness that is upon the earth He is very excited to be able to begin a new season of showing himself strong on behalf of His people! I heard Him saying “Only trust in me through all of your tragedies and triumphs in this New Year of 5780 and then you will begin to see my hand in all things! Your faith as a mustard seed has been increased exponentially in the earth and is snowballing! Now the supernatural power of your God will be multiplied in the earth through the hands of My people! This is a New Day and you are going to say “surely His Kingdom has come to earth as it is in heaven!” Watch what I am about to do for I will work a work in your day that you have not seen before!”
Isaiah 60:1-3 (NKJV)
“Arise, shine;
For your light has come!
And the glory of the Lord is risen upon you.
For behold, the darkness shall cover the earth,
And deep darkness the people;
But the Lord will arise over you,
And His glory will be seen upon you.
The Gentiles shall come to your light,
And kings to the brightness of your rising.”
Arise Shine! Jo Ellen Stevens
