Danielle Dixon View Bio danielledixonministries.com.au   I woke up this morning to the words  “leap of faith” I was impressed a leap of faith is needed at this time, the Lord was speaking to us as individuals and corporately. Also I had a knowing we are waiting for God to push us out of our comfort zone and he is waiting for us to take a leap of faith. I saw a green tree frog leaping from one tree to another very high up in the air at first it looked like he just made it clinging on to the branches for life than with each leap although the trees were all the same distance it became effortless. I felt the Lord was saying he is asking us to FINISH BIG in 2019, to go higher and wider with our faith than what is comfortable. All we will have is Him...

Kathi Pelton View Bio inscribeministries.com   For many months now the Lord has been highlighting roosters to me. Whenever something is highlighted continually before me I make sure to not assume why or what He is speaking to me regarding the object or thing highlighted. So...I’ve been waiting, listening and watching for the revelation that aligns with God’s times and seasons. This morning as I woke up I saw what was nothing short of an powerful and yet absurd vision. I saw believers across the United States of America standing or perched on the top of roofs, like roosters, and they were crowing loudly and without ceasing for the awakening of the dawn of the new day. They were not announcing the dawn but rather their sound was causing the dawn to awaken! I somehow understood that the light of the new day was being delayed by a dark force...

Cheryl Jenkins Link To Cheryl's Page On Facebook   A few weeks ago, my husband and I were on a trip with another couple, friends of ours. The wife kept making a strange sound with her mouth that was escaping involuntarily. She couldn’t understand why she kept making the sound, and neither could her husband. It would just come out of her. He said he could always find her in the store and he jokingly referred to it as her “mating call”. Fast forward about 3 weeks later and I noticed after a few days I was making a strange noise too; a different one, but also involuntarily. It just came out of me without my even thinking about it. I thought it strange and didn’t connect it to my friends, until… this last week as I was walking around our local Christian bookstore, I heard a woman begin to...

Lana Vawser View Bio LanaVawser.com   This week I heard the Lord say "Here comes your second wind". SECOND WIND DEFINITION: A second wind is a burst of energy after being tired or out of breath. (vocabulary.com) SYNONYMS: energy burst, refreshment, rejuvenation, renaissance, restored energy, restored strength, second energy burst (thesaurus.com) When the Lord spoke these words I knew He was speaking over those who are weary. Those who feel like they have run out of breath. Those who feel like they are tired in the fighting and contending. Friends, I want to encourage you today that the wind of the Spirit is beginning to blow over you and your second wind is coming. The Spirit of God is going to bring forth such refreshment, rejuvenation, strength and restored energy into your life. Those areas that have wearied you, those circumstances that have left you feeling like you are running...

Angie Stolba View Bio angiestolba.com   “Shall I bring to the point of birth and not give delivery?” says the Lord. “Or shall I who gives delivery shut the womb?” says your God. | Isaiah 66:9 I believe the Lord is saying, “Beloved, do not despise the tension and discomfort that you’re currently feeling. Truly you are in the final stages; you are almost ready to birth your prophetic promises.” As I continued listening to the heart of the Lord, I heard Him say that, “The very tension and discomfort you are feeling is similar to that of a woman about to give birth.” I was then reminded of the laboring process that a mother experiences. Right before a baby is born in the natural, the mother feels like she has nothing left to give; she believes she cannot possibly continue to push due to sheer exhaustion. However, often in that moment, she...

Judy Jacobs View Bio JudyJacobs.com   There is a great song written by anointed writer, Derrick Thomas, that I have sung many times on the TBN Network. The song is entitled, “God said He would Turn it Around.” I love to minister this song because of the message. The lyrics promise that God can change a situation in a person’s life. And today, I want to give you three reasons why God is going to turn the situation around in your life that YOU are going through. The first thing that needs to be established is the “it” that we are talking about. What is the thing–the “it”–that you need God to turn around in your life? Before you can assess the revelation of why God is going to turn it around, you must first identify the “it” that you are up against. Now what you need to know is,...

Joe Joe Dawson View Bio joejoedawson.net   This is your winning season! Often we can talk ourselves out of walking in the favor and blessing that God intends for us to have. A wrong mindset will hold you back from winning in life. I’ve seen different people walk through the same hard situations because they have allowed their mind to keep them in a negative cycle. As a son or daughter of God, you were called to win in every season. In every season, I want to be successful in manifesting everything God calls me to do. I never allow a limiting mindset to hold me back from success! The reason God gives each of us a prophetic destiny is because He needs for us to manifest His Kingdom on earth as it is in Heaven. We can try to avoid completing the process because of fear or insecurity but...

Westley Roderick View Bio westleyroderick.com   The other day the Lord spoke to me and said that it is time to receive unorthodox favor. This will be favor from a different sphere of influence unlike what you are already involved with or familiar with. This will display God’s goodness in your life and it will be revealed as His working in your life. Since this will be outside of your common area of success or influence it will not be done by your efforts or hands but through the Spirit of the Lord. "So he answered and said to me: 'This is the word of the Lord to Zerubbabel: "Not by might nor by power, but by My Spirit," says the Lord of hosts. "Who are you, O great mountain? Before Zerubbabel you shall become a plain! And he shall bring forth the capstone with shouts of Grace, grace to...

Article written by Joel Yount View Bio encouragementfornow.com   I was so frustrated! I couldn't seem to think clearly regarding a solution for a media project I had been working on. Have you ever been in a situation where no matter how many hours and energy you put into something it feels like you aren't making any progress? This is how I felt.   I made the decision to take a day off of work.   I spent most of the day outside walking in a park. There was no deep thoughts, no workload, and no stress. Just pure sunshine, warm air, and the sound of a gentle breeze moving through the leaves on the trees.   As time went on and I continued to get my exercise, new ideas and strategy began to come to me. It was as if out of nowhere solutions came that I could implement...

Lana Vawser View Bio LanaVawser.com   Recently I heard the Lord asking a question to the body of Christ "Who told you that?". When He asked the question it felt piercing, it felt like the Spirit of God was "exposing" lies and expectations that many of God's people were living under that had not been spoken by the Lord. Suddenly I began to see the Spirit of God shining His light upon areas in the lives of God's people where they were living under 'expectation of man', limitations and words spoken over them that did not come from His heart. I heard the Holy Spirit say "Where My people are living under the expectations and pressures of man they find no ease" The sense of "suffocation" surrounded me. The sense of "not being able to breath deeply" and a place void of joy but filled with burden and pressure filled...
