Prophetic Insight

It is vital that we continue in prayer for this nation. However, in order to see the needed changes occur in our culture that will bring lasting reformation, it’s time to consider additional actions that will demonstrate Kingdom authority in our individual spheres of influence. We can learn much from one intercessor in the Bible who affected an entire nation through his intercessory activism. Though many are familiar with Esther’s role in delivering a nation from destruction, it was Mordecai who paved the way for this national breakthrough through his prayers and engagement in the public square. His persistence in the midst of uncertainties and threats show a man with a mandate and assignment from the Lord. Mordecai’s story reveals TEN strategic keys for effective prayer and engagement as we confront and displace wickedness in high places, not only on the national level, but within our own communities: 1-LOVING GOD AND OTHERS: Mordecai was a father figure to Esther. In raising her, he helped establish her faith, as well as her love for God and the Jewish people (Esther 2:7). This bond rightly directed their hearts, their prayers, and their responses throughout their journey. This kind of foundation is essential to effective prayer. Meaningful relationships and mutual concern for others helps to establish the proper motivation in prayer. 2-GOING “ON-SITE FOR INSIGHT”: When Esther was taken to the palace, Scripture states, “Every day he (Mordecai) walked back and forth near the courtyard of the harem to find out how Esther...

Dunamis Rising! A Word by Daniel Pontious This morning I saw two things on the Rise in the Body of Christ. The First one was a Wave of Supernatural Intimacy with Jesus which was leading individuals into areas of Promotion in the Spirit followed closely by a Wave of Supernatural Power. "And these attesting SIGNS WILL ACCOMPANY THOSE WHO BELIEVE: in My name they will drive out demons; they will speak in new languages; They will pick up serpents; and if they drink anything deadly, it will not hurt them; they will lay their hands on the sick, and they will get well." Mark 16:17-18 The key in this set of verses isn't the signs or the wonders or the ability of those individuals, but it is the "Believe" factor. The Word "Believe" used here denotes a commitment of Trust which goes way beyond just a surface declaration. In fact I would go so far as to say that this kind of thing only emerges from a place of deep personal experiential relationship with God. With the first wave of Intimacy that is coming will emerge a transformation and a level of personal Holiness that many have never experienced before. The Holy Spirit inside of you is forcing things which are in disagreement with this Holiness to the surface of your life, just like dross floats to the surface as Gold is melted down and refined. So many are wondering why when they are going to the place of prayer...

You are Slipping Through! By Karen C. Jones Heaven is releasing a special grace for the people of God that will defy the odds. I hear the Lord say, “Just as I slipped through the crowds when they wanted to kill Me before My time, I’m giving My people that grace to pass through every evil intent, to slip through the fingers of situations that think it can contain and stop you.” I tell you the Lord is going to cause you to slip through what was supposed to destroy you. You will find yourself on the other side doing exactly what you’re supposed to be doing because once again no weapon formed against you prospered. I keep hearing “It’s a slipping through grace! It’s a slipping through grace!” Things will come together so quickly as the Lord will have commanded His angels to escort you to your place of promise. This “slipping through grace” is that place where the promise and His Presence merge to cause you to walk right pass every naysayer and every negative tongue-wagger!  Just as Jesus slipped through the crowds, I feel that so strongly, that what may look like a bad situation at one moment, the grace of God will cause you to slip right through! You’re going to be amazed at how God took you through it. All your pleading to God to deliver will be a done deal. Before the tears have dried from off of your face, God will have orchestrated...

"NO EXCUSES! MY STRENGTH IS MADE PERFECT IN YOUR WEAKNESS!" A Word by Jo Ellen Stevens Several years ago God said to me..." Your job is to let people see that I can still use the foolish things of this world to confound the wise :) That way they know that they don't have to be all that for me to use them! They are all that to me, and that is all that matters! Tell them.." In their weakness my strength is made perfect! So relax trying to be something or someone you are not! You are unique and you are my child! That is really all you have to be, otherwise let Me be Me in and through your uniqueness! IT'S NOT BY MIGHT NOR POWER BUT BY MY SPIRIT! God will never give you something to do that you can accomplish in your own power, wisdom, or might! He always gives you something to do that it takes His strength and our dependence upon Him to do it! We all have been given gifts and talents as a part of our earth suit package to accomplish what He has called us to do, but even those things all come from God. So we have no reason to boast in our own abilities nor should we hide in our cave because we feel that we are not capable. God has given us all things that pertain to this life to get done what we are still here to...

"I Will Carry You" By Karen C. Jones You don’t have that much further to go until this season gives way to the next. I feel there are some who feel like they’re going backwards instead of forwards. But can’t you feel the gentle breeze of the Father’s breath upon your face? He saw your weariness and is blowing it away. You’re scooped up in His arms and He’s wiping your tears away. Nothing can remove you from His all encompassing love. You are being strengthened now by the One who died for us all. Hold on, my friend. Your struggles have an end. Keep the faith, beloved. The King in you knows you will win.  “I will carry you,” I hear Him say. “You’re safe and secured in Me. I’m taking you where you need to be and I’ll see your joy restored. Release and forgive the ones who have made life hard for you. For this is a new day and no man can stop My plans for you. You are a child of Promise. Heaven’s joy and delight. Look in the mirror and put the enemy to flight! For looking back at you is not a mere human! You are Blood washed by the Lamb and you carry His Name! Take heart, dear one. There are those who can testify that God did just what He promised. Soon your testimony will join theirs for you refused to quit! For now, enjoy, as our Lord carries you to...

Permission Granted To Imagine by Bill Yount  A gavel strikes, shaking the courts of heaven, shattering major mindsets on earth, as a long overdue verdict is rendered: "Permission Granted to Imagine!" Corks blew, as new wine gushed, hitting heaven's ceiling, emptying a billion bottles and bursting old wineskins. God's Spirit of imagination began flooding the nations. This scripture becomes rhema, activating a host of angels. "Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or 'imagine', according to his power that is at work within us." Ephesians 3:20 NIV The song, 'I Can Only Imagine', was embraced by the world as its contagious message stirred hope into the hearts and minds everywhere. Only a movie could help relate the message that I believe God wanted to convey throughout time: "If YOU could only imagine." Our imagination wants to kick in more than we know to run with the possibilities of God. It can make a person appear peculiar. With that said, I believe the Lord is saying, "Please, let your imagination run wild when it comes to what I can do through you in this new era. You will never offend Me in this, I promise. I dare you to imagine." Made in His Image to Imagine By Christine Vales The Lord created the heaven and the earth. (Gen 1:1) He pictured heaven and earth and all that is in it, including us, the crown jewel of His creation. His imagination, expressed through words, painted...

Step Into A New Place! A Word by Sylvia Neusch It's time to draw a line in the sand, step over it and not look back. It's a time to fully step into the new things that God is orchestrating for your life. It's time to fully step into obedience. Do the little things He is telling you to do. Do the BIG things He is telling you to do. Trust His leadership and timing in your life. He is preparing you to be the size and shape to house the vision. Then, you will run freely with a strength that has been built through the Holy Spirit's "resistance training". Resistance training increases the strength of your muscles as they contract against an external force. The forces that have come against you have only served to increase your strength. You will find that you are stronger than before as God has used what the enemy meant for evil to now propel you forward. It's a time to step in to all that God has prepared for you. The Lord promised Joshua in Joshua 1:3 , that He would give him every place where he set his foot. Joshua's steps were important and your steps are important too. You are taking NEW TERRITORY and He will direct where your feet are to go. Your step is your act of faith. Your step is your physical act of obedience and it will bring breakthrough. Do not despise the small steps. Make the...

A New Era With A Tsunami Wave Of Revival From Sea To Shining Sea A Word by Holly Watson As we posture ourselves at the doorway of the Hebrew New Year of 5780, the numerical attributes of the Åyin (70) and the Pey (80) sandwiched between the year 5780 positions the number 78 in the most prophetic sort of way. Our eye (Ayin) and our mouth (Pey) gives us a glimpse of the future as we leap into a new era of Voice and Vision (5780/2020)! When Jehoshaphat proclaimed his confidence in the Prophets of God in 2 Chron. 20:20, he first began by lifting his eyes towards God, then proceeded by raising his voice in praise, before shifting the atmosphere from one of battle to that of defeating his enemies in victory. Jehoshaphat and the people of Judah and Jerusalem used their sight and sound to collect the spoils of war upon hearing the Word of the Lord through the Prophetic utterance of Jahaziel (2 Chron. 20:14-17). The link between Jehoshaphat's gaze and the verbal declaration of his prophetic prayer and praise brought about an abundance of blessing in the wilderness of Tekoa. Not only did God establish a prophetic culture to usher Jehoshaphat into the manifestation of His promised breakthrough. But the Spirit of God became manifest in a land without pasture, as the prophetic Word poured out blessings uncontainable to those who believed what God had promised! In verse thirty of 2 Chronicles 20 scripture says, 'The...

Yesterday, I felt a shaking in the spirit world. Warfare is taking place. Foundations are shaking. It’s been tough! You may feel like you’re losing things – even good things! Listen, God is doing some pruning. He’s cutting off what needs to be removed so that you can produce double the harvest. In John 15:2, Jesus said, “Every branch in Me that does not bear fruit, He takes away; and every branch that bears fruit, He prunes it so that it may bear more fruit.” This process can be painful, but it is necessary. It may be hard to see in the midst of your pain that God’s pruning is leading to a better harvest for you. Just like a vinedresser goes through and prunes his vines, God is pruning your life. The vine feels the pain, and so will you, but the pain is always worth the gain when it comes at the hands of the Vinedresser. He is setting you up produce an abundance of fruit. I believe the fruit will begin to show at sundown on Sept 29th as we enter into Rosh Hashanah. God is preparing to give us double as we enter into the Hebrew New Year, 5780. This month, God is saying, “You aren’t going to take that in with you. Nope! I’m going to cut that back.” He may even be cutting back some good things. Don’t worry, don’t fear: focus on the Lord and prepare yourself for all He has for you....

THE DREAM LANGUAGE IN A NEW ERA //SURRENDERING THE OLD FOR THE NEW A Word by Nate Johnston Throughout the year I have had consecutive dreams about exchanging the old for the new and surrendering our old modus operandi for the fresh orders from heaven. I believe dreams are the often overlooked or devalued language of heaven that carry and imparts the very assignments, ideas, strategies, and breakthrough many have been praying for! Dreams throughout the bible were used to give insight and direction before or during a new season and those who understood them were able to navigate these seasons well. So with that in mind I felt it would be helpful to briefly share what some of the key dream themes of this season are and what they mean for us. NEW GLASSES If you have dreamt of glasses God is giving you eyes to see differently where you have become used to viewing your life, circumstances, and calling in a limited way. God is giving you eyes to see “beyond” where you did before. Insight and foresight that results in radical vision and running your race in this season with a clear goal and mark. God is also opening your eyes to see the areas you have been robbed in during the last season so you don’t make the same mistakes. According to the Hebraic year of 5779 we are still in the “seeing” years where God is equipping the seers to guide the church in greater...
