A Sowing Season

I was praying Psalm 126 this morning and my spirit began to speak thanks to God for the season of weeping, crying, deconstructing, dying to self. It was a hard season, it felt like a long season, over 10 years for me, but today with an honest heart I was thanking the Lord for that season. I realized, based on what the psalmist said, if you have not had this season in your life, then you have not sown those seeds yet. This season was not because of secret sin I could not get over, some huge mistakes I made and I was remorseful, no this was a season designed by God, for He sees the end the from the beginning. It was a season of sowing.

Psalm 126 says, “Those who sow in tears shall reap with joyful shouting. He who goes to and fro weeping, carrying his bag of seed, Shall indeed come again with a shout of joy, bringing his sheaves with him.”

Joy is the harvest of a season of sowing in tears. Shouts come from a heart that has seen the Lord in the darkest nights of the soul. Sheaves are in our arms because we did not quit when we wanted out of that season of sowing. I did not get invited into that season with an announcement that it would be the hardest season of my life, but with an invitation from the Lord to walk with Him, to obey Him into the valley, to continue with Him when I had nothing, literally, when I thought I was going to die, but the living God, the word of God and the people of God who He sent to walk with me, never let me quit. Song of Solomon is about the Shunamite who started out closed off to love, but ended with a heart that was receiving and giving love like she never thought possible. This is what this season was about.

Tears fell as I learned to trust Him. I did not know at that time those tears were seeds. I never did it for anything but Him. Obedience was the motivation, not a harvest, not a ministry, not money, nothing. Once you really meet Him, really know Him, really see Him, nothing else matters. He is truly all I want, all I ever needed. But now the tears are gone and the joy has come, I smile a lot, I feel alive again and I am thankful for the season of sowing in tears.

Redeeming October

Last month people were commenting on how early people are switching into the next holiday. It used to be we would actually celebrate a holiday in the month it was slated for. An example is we celebrate Christmas in December, Thanksgiving in November, Halloween in October, Easter in April, but it seems as though these holidays have crossed their boundaries and are bleeding into other months. Now if it is Christmas, for some it is okay, but when people spread the October holiday into September some were not happy about it. Comments were made about the decorations they were seeing in stores so early and in people’s yards.

I love how the Lord has an answer for every one of our issues. Many times I wished I would have been mature enough to hear His voice like I do now at a much younger age, but maturity has its benefits and one of those benefits is not only hearing the voice of God but knowing His nature. The nature of God declares everyone is redeemable, so when He looks at something He always finds a redemptive way to deal with it. I wonder if this is why He says He works all things together for good for those who love Him and are called according to His purpose? Nonetheless, He has done it again, He has redeemed October for us.

I asked my son to drive by 202 Church Street in Franklin, TN last night, because when I saw this the other day the Lord spoke to me and said, “Prophesy to the dry bones and tell them to live!” I knew this was God’s answer to many of us who do not celebrate this October holiday. Now everytime I drive or walk past dry bones, I prophesy to them and the people who have them near their house, I say what Yahweh told Ezekiel to say, “Prophesy over these bones and say to them, ‘O dry bones, hear the word of the LORD.’ Thus says the Lord GOD to these bones, ‘Behold, I will cause breath to enter you that you may come to life. I will put sinews on you, make flesh grow back on you, cover you with skin and put breath in you that you may come alive; and you will know that I am the LORD.’” So I prophesied as I was commanded” (Ezekiel 37:4-7). Next time you see dry bones, prophesy!

Release The Dove

We are still in the Feast of Tabernacles week, we are invited to dwell in the shelter of the Most High, but my goodness does the news, no matter where you find it, boy does it shake people with fear. The number of messages I have received this morning about this EBS today and shutting off all my devices, shows me whose voice people heed. Wow, wow, wow. But in true God fashion, His voice got to me before any of these other voices. When God speaks every other voice loses authority, power and ability to produce anything in me, for my Father in heaven spoke first, and here is what He said…

I was awakened first thing this morning to an image of a bird flapping its wings, but it was like a butterfly in gentleness, is what I saw, then I heard the words “RELEASE THE DOVE!” Immediately my spirit says, Genesis 8. I get up, grab my bible and start reading Genesis 8, I mean we are in the days of Noah right, these are the end times, end of an era, so yet again God is speaking in now time. I read Genesis 8 and it says: God remembered Noah; God caused a wind to pass over the earth; the water subsided; the flood was over; and then it says in Genesis 8:8 “Then he sent out a dove from him, to see if the water was abated from the face of the land;” In God’s vernacular “RELEASE THE DOVE”.

God told Noah to release the dove, then 7 days later Noah released it again and it came back with an olive leaf in its mouth. If God is saying RELEASE THE DOVE we have nothing to worry about, the flood is over, we are tabernacling with God, the enemy has been swept away and we are about Genesis 9:1 “Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth!” It is the end of the wicked, but it is also the beginning of righteousness building nations. Billion soul harvests being reaped and great exploits being done. God said, “RELEASE THE DOVE” in the week of Tabernacles on the day of the EBS, our God is alive and He speaks in now time, rejoice, the dove has been released.

Rest For The Soul

Look here, no look here, buy this, no buy that, go here, no come here, it is a daily deluge of being pulled in so many directions with so many demands. People turn to yoga so they can get their breath back in the stress of all the storms called life, hoping breathing, stretching, meditating will bring the peace they so desire. Others turn to “spirits” (wine, beer, bourbon, tequila) hoping to relax, hoping to settle down for the stess is too much. Anger is evident on the face of people who are charged politically thinking politics is going to alleviate their stress, so they raise signs, hang banners, twist stories about people, in hopes of getting their candidate in office. The world which is controlled by the devil, his minions and peoples choice to sin really is the perfect storm and it is no wonder people are stressed out.

The Bible tells us we are to be in the world but not of the world. That means we need to be light in the darkness, hope in the midst of much despair and the voice of calm in the midst of raging storms of people’s many opinions. But so many, like Lot, whose righteous soul was tormented by all that was surrounding him in Sodom, are struggling to find fresh air in a polluted world. One of the main tactics of the enemy is to wear down the saints of the Most High. If he can wear you out, he can take you out. That is why Jesus says, come to Me all you who are weary and heavy laden and I will give your souls rest. Breathing techniques, stretching, or other spirits may relax your body, but they cannot give rest to your soul. Only time with Jesus in the secret place can do that. His word is your rest.

Genesis 1:1-2 says, “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. The earth was formless and void, and darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was moving over the surface of the waters.” Fix your eyes not on the formless and void earth, but on the Spirit of God that is moving. He is moving powerfully right now today. Take some time today, everyday and open your Bible, read the word, let it wash you of the filth of the world in which you live and breath life into your weary soul. He is your strong tower, your shelter in the storm, He is your Father in heaven and He is for you, come to HIm and find rest for your soul.

5784 Turning Over Tables

Yesterday I posted a word about 5784 that the Lord spoke to me about the Year of Immeasurably More. Another thing the Lord spoke to me in September about 5784, studying the number 4, was related to a table. One of the words connected with the number 4 in the Hebrew is table, for the fact that it has 4 legs. The Lord spoke to me and said, “I am entering through the “doors” of the temple and I am going to turn over the tables of the money changers again.” I have been sitting on this word, because I say all the time the Lord told me, Babylon, Babylon is falling and this is just another way of saying that, for Babylon is a financial system that has oppressed the nations of the world. But then yesterday a friend of mine, late last night sent me this picture and told me this is not a meme, this is an actual picture on the website USDebtClock.org. (The picture has been removed now) I told her, I haven’t told anyone this, but it is written in my journal the Lord said, “In 5784 I am going to turn over the tables of the money changers in the temple again.” This confirmed for me that I heard clearly.

We have been told a shaking is coming, I have been telling you since 2017 that the Lord said, “Call for the fall of the iron and clay kingdom once and for all (Daniel 2)” and “Babylon, Babylon is falling (Revelation 18)” since 2021. The thing about prophetic words that Johnny + Elizabeth Enlow taught me is “If God tells you the what, He won’t tell you the when, because we are a body and we need each other to see the whole picture.” When Johnny said this on one of his Elijah Streams programs, it set me free from setting a time table on God only to be disappointed because I made one up in my head and then when it didn’t come to pass I was experiencing Hope deffered. Now I just listen and if I get the what, I wait for the when, if I get the when, I watch for the what.

All that to say, when will this happen, all I know is it will happen in 5784, but what is going to happen, how is it going to happen, that I don’t know, but I do know Babylon is falling and when it does it will shake the nations for God is going into the temple of the nations and turning over the tables of the money changers again. I think I hear an echo for 5784.

5784/2024 Year of Immeasurably More

Last month we entered into the Hebrew year 5784 and in a couple of months we will enter into the Gregorian year 2024. Many words have come out about these years being the year of the door, gate, threshold. I agree with all of them and have already experienced doors opening, gates lifting and thresholds being crossed. I would like to add one more word to these words as the Lord said to me, 5784/2024 is the year of Immeasurably More. This language comes from Ephesians 3:20-21 “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, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen.”

I have sat on this word for a couple of weeks now, and the Lord keeps nudging me to put it out there. I am not sure what immeasurably more is going to all entail, but this I do know, it is going to go beyond anything we have ever asked for, imagined or dreamed. We are finite, Yahweh is eternal, so we are about to enter into something we did not see coming. Many have said, we have never gone this way before, and for me that falls into the immeasurably more category.

In order to truly enjoy the year of immeasurably more, we must live with child like wonder. Remember the first time you went to Disneyworld; or your first concert or sporting event. This is going to be beyond all of that. God is glory and HIs glory is awe inspiring. We are going to experience a love of the likes we have never known; we are going to experience a power we have never seen; we are going to experience truth in a way we have never heard. We are going into the immeasurably more and it is going to upgrade our internal operating system in a way that makes us see Him, hear Him and want Him like we never have before. We are in the year of immeasurably more.

Divinity In Humanity

I have some friends who own 500 acres of farm land in Kansas and they call me from time to time to pray for rain. Being a farmer, rain is a commodity they can only depend on God for. Rain is the key to the harvest. My friend’s husband, can plow, plant and prepare the soil, but if God does not send the rain, there is no harvest despite all his hard work.

This morning I was reading Proverbs 30, of which I have read a Proverb a day for decades, but today verses 15-16 jumped off the page and brought to mind my farmer friends in Kansas. “The leech has two daughters, “Give,” “Give.” There are three things that will not be satisfied, Four that will not say, “Enough”: Sheol, and the barren womb, Earth that is never satisfied with water, And fire that never says, “Enough.” This verse illuminated on the page today and the Lord began to speak to me.

The land cries give, give me more water, even though it was watered probably the day before. The land will always need water. As I thought about this, the Lord said to me, “I put ______ (my friend) on that land to give the land water, not water from heaven, but living water from his belly. I put rivers of living water inside of him (John 4) and what the land is really crying out for is his manifestation as a son of God (Romans 8:18-22).”

I had never thought of that before, but it is so true, anything in our life that is crying out or revealing discontentment is there so you, so I can release rivers of living water into that situation and manifest our sonship as sons and daughters of God so creation can be liberated. This goes for land, people, nations, and structures. My friends, we are the distributors of the living water that sets thirsty situations free. Release the river inside of you, manifest the divinity that is inside of you as humanity, you were put there as a solution to a problem. Prophesy!!!!

Tabernacle Time

Today is Day 1 of the Feast of Tabernacles. I have been seeing the booth in the spirit that the Hebrews would create and sit under during these feast days. But then it turned into a palm tree and I saw Deborah sitting under this tree and the Lord called it the feast of tabernacles. I then saw Jonah under the vine that the Lord provided for him, same idea. Finally I saw Nathaniel when Jesus saw him sitting under the fig tree and again the Lord said to me, “Feast of Tabernacles”.

On this first day of this feast, I am reading Psalm 119, what a great psalm to start this feast with, because it has over 100 verses and they all have to do with the psalmists love for the word of God. As I sit in my parabolic booth and read Psalm 119, these words sink deep in my soul “How blessed are those who observe His testimonies, Who seek Him with all their heart. They also do no unrighteousness; They walk in His ways.” (Psalm 119:2-3)

The Lord began to share with me how His words are our boundaries. When we live in the boundaries of HIs words, we are safe, provided for and prosperous in every way, but when we go outside of His word, we are no longer safe. The Lord continued and said, “His words are our boundaries and when we are living inside of them, we know we are loved.” Many believers don’t know they are loved by God and I would wager to guess those same believers are not living daily in the words of God.

The challenge modern day Christians face is they want things they are not willing to alter their life for. The psalmist says, “I will meditate on Your precepts And regard Your ways. I shall delight in Your statutes; I shall not forget Your word.” The word of God is a person and that man Jesus the Christ, God the Father and the Holy Spirit who loves us so much more than we know, but to find this love, to experience this love, to know this love, we must live in the boundaries of His word.

Will you join me for this seven day feast and sit under the fig tree, sit under the palm tree, sit under the vine with me as we bring our lives back into the boundaries of God’s word? I know you will have to say no to other appetites, but once you taste and see that the Lord is good, you will lose your appetite for other things. The Feast of Tabernacles is a great time to recalibrate your heart and come back into alignment with the word of God. It will make you feel better. Welcome to the first day of the Feast of Tabernacles.

Flaming Arrows of God

During worship the other night, at the Josh Baldwin event, the Lord took me into a vision and I saw the Lord standing and facing forward with a confident but peaceful look on His face. Then I saw His arm reach behind His back and He had a quiver of arrows. The arrows were permanently flaming is what I was told. As I watched the Lord grab an arrow from the quiver, He put it in the bow and I looked to see where He was going to shoot it. He was pointing the arrow at a world map that was suspended in mid air in front of Him. He shot the arrow and it hit a nation and immediately I knew He was shooting people to specific locations on that map. The first arrow hit a country on the continent of Africa. As soon as the arrow hit the Lord’s desired location, I heard the song, “We speak to nations!” The arrow was securely burrowed into the nation and all I could keep saying as I looked at perpetually flaming arrow is “We speak to nations, we speak to nations, we speak to nations.” I was mesmerized by this vision and kept saying over and over again, “We speak to nations, we speak to nations, we speak to nations.”

Psalm 104:4 says, “He makes the winds His messengers, Flaming fire His ministers.”

The Lord is going to send people to speak to nations, He will send them to very specific nations, as perpetual flames of fire. Arrows of His choosing, sent out to nations He has marked for that messenger. Once they land in that nation, words of life will come out of their mouths and the nation to which they were sent will respond to the words of the Lord. This is all God’s doing. The Lord chose the arrow, the Lord chose the nation, the Lord will chose what is said to that nation. The honor of being a perpetually flaming arrow of God is enough, these people are not going to take credit for any of this, for they know and the nation will know, this was God’s idea and God’s doing. The nations are about to hear the word of God from fiery messangers.

White Boat or Grey Ship

A little less than a week ago, I realized I had not had a dream in a while, so I asked the Lord if He would give me a dream to tell me something He is doing. I had no expectation of what He would say, I just wanted to hear something about what He is doing and in the early hours of this morning I had a dream. I know it was in response to my request to know what He is doing, here is the dream.

I dreamt I was walking around a marina with a family I am very good friends with. While we were at this marina, there were many boats docked here and their son, was with me as we walked in and out of the various boats. The son who was with me and was 8-9 years old, was getting on and off the backs of the boats. All the boats were white and probably a little bigger than speed boat size. I watched him as he got on the back of this one white boat and all of the sudden a rope went up behind him and gently pulled him onto the boat. The boat slowly began to pull out of the slip where it was tied and gently, slowly began to drive out of the marina area. I ran to another location on the marina dock and I asked a man who standing there, where is the boat going, the man said, the grey cruise ship, I said no, the white boat. I then looked up and the white boat was in front of the big grey cruise ship and I woke up.

Boat means ministry or church, cruise ship means big ministry or big church; white is purity or righteousness and grey means mixture or lukewarm. The name of the boy who got on the back of the white boat means favored of God. The Lord told me, “I am favoring the ministries of purity and righteousness and the cruise ships of compromise are following what I am favoring.” He went on to say, people love the big cruise ship, but it is filled with mixture, I Am putting my favor on the ministries and churches who are pure and operating in righteousness.” My friends, size does not determine favor with God. He is putting favor on the back of ministries of purity and righteousness, that is what God is doing. Get on the white boat for that is where the favor is.
