Praying Psalm 43 this morning. When I read this verse, “Oh, send out Your light and Your truth! Let them lead me; Let them bring me to Your holy hil And to Your tabernacle”, the Lord gave me a vision of a lighthouse. As I looked at this lighthouse in the spirit, I sensed the Lord saying, “I am going to turn on lighthouses for people to come to when they are ready to hear the truth that will set them free.”

I got the sense in the spirit that God has sent people out to speak truth but many resisted the truth that could set them free. Now there is a shift that has happened and lighthouses are going to shine in dark places and people who want to know the truth will come to the lighthouse.

There is a hunger in the earth right now for truth, people that want to know the truth are flocking to lighthouses which are dispensers of truth. When the people come to the lighthouse, they are coming because they want to hear the truth that will set them free.

Some people will dwell, linger, at the lighthouse, others will see the light, hear the truth and get set free in order to become a lighthouse for others. I also see ships, large ships coming to the lighthouses filled with people who want to know the truth. The harvest is coming on the seas to see the light that will set them free.

Jesus said in John 9, I am the light of the world! These lighthouses are lifting up the name of Jesus and He being the light is drawing all men to Himself. The lighthouses are shining in dark places and the Lord is using them to set people free. They are getting free because they want to know the truth, about many things, for they have known bondage, but now they want freedom. Lighthouses, lighthouses, lighthouses are shining in dark places.

One of the prophetic pictures the Lord gave me of the fall of Babylon is the game Jenga. In this game called Jenga, there are blocks stacked up and each person takes turns removing a block, hoping the tower of blocks does not fall on their removal of a block. The goal of the game is to not have the tower fall on the removal of your block.

The prophetic picture of Jenga was that the Lord was going to remove block after block until the Tower of Babel, or Babylon fell in our generation. This parable of sorts prophetically was given to me in 2017.

I have been on many prophetic adventures to many location destinations to pray for the fall of Babylon and the redemption of the nation. Salting rivers according to 2 Kings 2, redigging wells according to Genesis 26, releasing the sound of salvation through the shofar according to Joshua 6, and going to Jekyll Island and throwing a large rock in the Atlantic declaring Babylon has fallen according to Revelation 18. One prayer mission at a time, was like removing one block from Babylon at a time.

As I watch the news and hear the rumblings of the IRS being removed, the Gulf Mexico being renamed, the National Guard in DC for the cleaning up and taking back of the city, along with many many other things, I smile. I smile for it is a full circle moment seeing prayers answered as Babylon is falling block by block Jenga style.

Some are weeping at its fall, which Revelation 18 says will happen for many profited off of it, but others are to rejoice when it falls. Heaven is rejoicing, saints, apostles and prophets are supposed to rejoice, because “Her traders robbed the whole earth blind, and by black-magic arts deceived the nations.” God has judged this wicked structure. The call to get out, come out is still ringing in the air, because one block will be removed and the whole thing will come down.

What a time in history to be alive for those who have eyes to see and ears to hear the fall of Babylon in our generation. Rejoice saints, rejoice!!!! Www.apostolicresourcecenter.org

Have you been experiencing full circle moments? Have you been brought back to places you have been already, but you are the not the same person, even though the location, situation or manifestation looks the same? Friends, we are in a brief time of full circle, not to set us back but to show us how far we have come.

“Coming full circle” means returning to the place, condition, or stage where something began — but usually with added experience, growth, or insight gained from the journey. It is like a mile marker on the highway to show you how far you have come, how much you have grown, how deep and wide your life has grown.

Full circle moments are to encourage you, to propel you, to reveal to you who you have become. They are exhortations to propel you into the next season, next journey, next assignment. We are not stagnant, we are becoming more like Christ everyday, we are being healed in ways we did not see, so full circle moments, help you see how far you have traveled, when you felt like you made no movement.

I want to encourage you to keep watch for full circle moments right now, for they are popping up everywhere, revealing to us how far we have come individually, locally, nationally and internationally. We are not where were were even five years ago.

These moments are important, for they give us time to reflect, time to rejoice, time to remember that even when we think God is not working, He is doing things we could not see. We are in a full circle moment right now, because the door to the future is open and we are crossing over, stepping in and there is no turning back. Enjoy the full circle moments, they are for your encouragement that God has been and continues to be for you. Www.apostolicresourcecenter.org

I was with a friend the other day and I told her, I struggle with hope because when I hope and it doesn’t happen it brings about disappointment and I have disappointment fatigue. She smiled at me with her older than me self and said, “That is because you do not have a revelation of hope!”

This statement has been musing in my spirit from the day she spoke it. Since she said I do not have a revelation of hope, my spirit has been crying out for a revelation of hope. Our hearts long to know truth and so we will search for it until we find it, if we are lovers of truth.

My spirit has been searching for this revelation since that day and I have been getting puzzle pieces of it here and there for the past three weeks. One of those puzzle pieces is going from the idea that God can do something to God will do it. This tectonic plate shifted from He can to He will and confidence came.

Then I was with an Indian man from India yesterday and he said to me, “Lisa, growing up we were taught about karma, I can’t escape it. What we sow we reap, but we don’t expect anything from what we sow, because of karma. For we do not know if what we will reap is good or bad, so we have no expectation when we sow.”

When he left, I repented of not expecting anything good from the seeds I sow. Seeds of time, money, love, energy, help, whatever it may be. I realized when he said that, the Jews never doubted they would reap something good when they sowed and the Lord whispered “that is hope.”

Hebrews 11:1 says, “Faith is the confidence that what we hope for will actually happen; it gives us assurance about things we cannot see.”

Hope is CONFIDENT EXPECTATION OF GOOD! My confidence is rising; my expectation of good is increasing; and I am gaining a revelation of hope daily as the Lord speaks truth to me about what He has for me. Hope is not my circumstances or other people’s choices, it is my trust in the words and ways of God. Hope is a game changer, I hope this encourages you, just like my friend challenged me to get a revelation of hope. Www.apostolicresourcecenter.org

I saw a post the other day with Tom Brady having nine Super Bowl rings on his fingers. He was showing off his trophies by wearing them on his fingers. His trophies are his pride and joy for the hard work, the team work and the physical work he did to be one of the greatest quarterbacks in the NFL.

Patrick Mahomes could put a similar picture on his social media, with multiple Super Bowl rings, Lombardi Trophies and Championship t-shirts, hats and banners. Hard work brought them to the level of professional and then more work got them the title of greatest to play the game called football.

The Lord revealed to me this morning while reading 1 Peter 1, His trophy case and I saw the men and women of the Word of God in His trophy case. But they were not there for their physical prowess, their high level of play on a sports field, but because of their faith and how they believed God when circumstances spoke another narrative.

Peter says it this way, “Pure gold put in the fire comes out of it proved pure; genuine faith put through this suffering comes out proved genuine. When Jesus wraps this all up, it’s your faith, not your gold, that God will have on display as evidence of his victory. You never saw him, yet you love him. You still don’t see him, yet you trust him—with laughter and singing. Because you kept on believing, you’ll get what you’re looking forward to: total salvation.”

Rings will tarnish, trophies will collect dust, but our faith will be spoken of for all of eternity. Jesus said, when I return will I find faith on earth? We are the faith filled ones He is watching, protecting, displaying for all of creation to see. We read about them in Hebrews 11, but it is not just them it is us as well. Faith displays the victory of God on earth as it is in heaven. May we be a display of His victory. Www.apostolicresourcecenter.org

The ache in all of humanity is the desire to be loved, the need to know we are loved, the want to be loved. Every behavior is rooted in a desire, a need to be loved. When that need is not met, it creates an ache that cannot be satisfied until the acknowledgment of love is actualized. The challenge is, we are loved, but we resist it.

Malachi 1 states, “GOD said, “I love you.” You replied, “Really? How have you loved us?” Look at history” (this is GOD’s answer).” (MSG). The mystery is always in the history. A mystery is something that is veiled, we cannot see it, so we think it is not true. However, revelation is the unveiling of what has been concealed. God is revealing He has loved us all along, we just haven’t been able to see it, because it was veiled to us.

The veil is being removed from our eyes in a way that is astounding. The knowing we are loved is piercing the darkness and it is penetrating love that is lighting up every area of our lives on the inside and will be visible on the outside. This love is the river of life that is going to be flowing from our bellies. It is a river that will never run dry.

Liquid love is bursting up from the dry ground inside of us. It is the fountain in us that is beginning to bubble up. It is the well that has been sealed, but is now being revealed. Love is deep, it is passionate, it is generous, it is wild, it is free, it is truth, it is power, it is Christ in us the hope of glory. Love is the mystery that has been veiled but is being revealed. The river of love is flowing down from the mountain of God. Www.apostolicresourcecenter.org

I have never met someone that does not like something new. I know I do. The new has a smell to it; a look to it; a sound to it; a feel to it; it is new. I remember when I became a Christian and I was made new. I remember when I was born again again while in revival. I was made new. The sun was brighter, the clouds were whiter, the love was deeper, the joy was louder. I was new.

I love people who are made new, they forgive quickly, they love deeply, they worship passionately, they show up unexpectedly, they give generously. Oh that we would be a people who are made new again again. We need an outpouring of the washing of the water through the word, for people have lost their first love, their quick forgiveness, their deep passion and their kind heart. Oh that we would be made new again again.

God had a new plan for Israel, which is the plan He has for all of us. It is found in Hebrews 8 and it says, “This new plan I’m making with Israel isn’t going to be written on paper, isn’t going to be chiseled in stone; This time I’m writing out the plan in them, carving it on the lining of their hearts. I’ll be their God, they’ll be my people. They won’t go to school to learn about me, or buy a book called God in Five Easy Lessons. They’ll all get to know me firsthand, the little and the big, the small and the great. They’ll get to know me by being kindly forgiven, with the slate of their sins forever wiped clean. By coming up with a new plan, a new covenant between God and his people, God put the old plan on the shelf. And there it stays, gathering dust.” (MSG)

Oh that we would surrender to being made new again again. Our schooling has made us stale; our self-help culture has made us divisive; our record deals have made us performers; our politics have made us suspicious; we have tried it all and it has made us less like Christ not more like Him. Oh how I pray we would be willing to be made new again again. Www.apostolicresourcecenter.org

There is something better!
There is a more excellent way!
There is more!
What is the hold up for you?
What is it that is keeping you back?
What causes you to question if it is real?

We are the hinderance to the more. It is not someone else’s fault. Until we are willing to take personal responsibility we will never come into something greater than we have ever known. There is no where to place blame, there is no reason to live in shame. But without humility there is no access.

Hebrews 8 says, “Now He has obtained a more excellent ministry, by as much as He is also the mediator of a better covenant, which has been enacted on better promises.” A more excellent ministry; a better covenant; better promises. Humility is the access key.

1 Corinthians 12:31 says, “Earnestly desire the greater gifts. And I show you a still more excellent way.” There is a more excellent way than even the gifts. Humility is the access key.

Acts 18:24-27 “Now a Jew named Apollos, an Alexandrian by birth, an eloquent man, came to Ephesus; and he was mighty in the Scriptures. This man had been instructed in the way of the Lord; and being fervent in spirit, he was speaking and teaching accurately the things concerning Jesus, being acquainted only with the baptism of John; and he began to speak out boldly in the synagogue. But when Priscilla and Aquila heard him, they took him aside and explained to him the way of God more accurately.” There is a more accurate way, and humility is the access key.

Friends, there is more, but you must humble yourself in order to access it. You can remain where you are, but others are going beyond where we have ever been before, for the Lord has extended the invitation to more. Don’t let pride halt your process for there is still more. Come on friends, we haven’t seen anything yet.

We have known restriction; we have experienced the cramp, tight places; but now the time has declared we will access abundance. It will demand a learning curve for we can not live as survivors when we have access to abundance. We cannot live small in our thinking, when we have acccess to wide open spaces.

The psalmist says, “You have known my soul in adversities, And have not shut me up into the hand of the enemy; You have set my feet in a wide place.” The process had places of pain, people who confined us and tried to define us, but God has opened wide the windows of heaven and poured out an identity as sons and daughters upon us.

What hurt in the dark will give way to the joy of the light. What was tight in the small is giving way to what is broad in the land we have entered into. The days of fighting over crumbs is over, the days of operating by design is here.

The nations are going through seismic shifts, burning of the old fields, washing with water, for the change is natural and supernatural. What looks like an “oh no” is actually a “here we go!”

It is time to rejoice, celebrate, forgive, forget and face the truth that we have been set free. It is no longer only He can, it is He will. Our God is not a man that He should lie, what He said He would do, He is doing and has done. Welcome to the kingdom of God on earth not in words, but in power.

The narrative of the religious system has been one of fear. This was not by accident, it was by design. Fear is a form of control to keep you from the freedom that God has promised you. Jesus said, You shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free. Paul said, The Lord did not give you a spirit of fear, but of power, love and a sound mind. The coordinated effort to seed the body of Christ with fear was intentional, but God has been and still is a deliverer.

When Israel was in Egypt they were locked into a system of control that used them for Egypt’s benefit, not for the liberation of a people. Moses was raised up in human form as a deliverer of a nation. The Israelites were so locked into the Egyptian system, they could not see Moses as a deliverer. Remember Moses was raised in Pharoh’s house, the very system he was going to be used to deliver God’s people out of.

Due to idolatry, Israel found themselves in another system of control, which used fear to keep them bound, called Babylon. This was their 70 years of exile and Daniel was in the same exile as the other Hebrew people. But God gave Daniel dreams, night visions and authority to speak to the king of whom he served. A king that demanded all people bow to his golden image or be thrown in a furnace or lion’s den. But God in true fashion, again delivered His people from Babylonian exile and control.

There is nothing knew under the sun, Solomon says. What was will be again. We should not be surprised by the religious system that has enslaved generations of people since the days of Constantine (around 300AD). Yes it has been in operation for that long and has touched every nation. But God, yet again is on a rescue mission.

Those in the system are so accustomed to fear and control, the shaking is going to scare them, but what we need to know is that the shaking is what opened Peter’s prison doors in the book of Acts. The shaking is setting us free not putting us in bondage, not killing us. God is Haggai 2:21-22 ing us right now. “I will shake heaven and earth. I will overthrow the throne of kingdoms.” The shaking is overthrowing wicked thrones, demonic systems. The shaking is not punishment it is liberation. The shaking is declaring our deliverance.
