PROPHETIC WORD
As summer begins to wind down, we are nearing the beginning of a new season, fresh with possibilities and moving forward towards a great awakening because of the pressing needs that are being confronted because of a godless culture that is collapsing before our very eyes.
We may have remembered past summers where we frolicked with our families and friends and never gave a thought to what our kids would be learning at school.
Now, may be wondering what future awaits our children or grandchildren because of where they live, educational resources, and options you now need to face.
Many of us may be dealing with anxiety in your work environment, home life, or what your church now believes morally and ethically. Underneath all of these lies you may have buried dreams of who you thought you should be at this time of life or what you have always wanted to accomplish but never succeeded in.
Hold on, you may be thinking—this all seems so hopeless—but wait- read on.
In all of these frightening thoughts or cultural realities, God has set up an ecosystem and a time plan for us. As Esther 4:14 states, “who knows but you were born for such a time as this?” If we hear His Voice as John 10 encourages us to do, then we will go towards the Good Shepherd and be led into His abundant pastures.
Maybe it’s not in changing the circumstances that we gain peace and security, but rather how God’s Presence always changes impossible situations in to victories that re-activates our faith and our trust.
It’s time for a miracle. What do you think?
Prophetically, now more than ever, we must hear His Voice and find the community where we can experience relational abundance. If people around you are bringing you down, MOVE until you find one that practices faith, hope, and love in impossible situations and is there when you fall down and need to be picked back up.
I heard the Lord say that He is raising up holy alliances with others like how He aligned CS Lewis and JR Tolkien to write their classics. T
here will be communities where the Spirit will fall on us as in the days of Pentecost where every believer is filled and goes out to share what God has done.
You may say, that seems too good to be true. Well, I see this happen wherever I go and wherever my family goes. My son Chad and I are ministering to Afghan refugees by helping them heal from their trauma through art with God and surfing in the ocean.
We ARE the Light of the world not to be hidden. And to top it all off, my Create Academy students are also experiencing the miraculous power of God, defying the odds.
And there’s more… God is really wanting to expand our vision— that’s right—He’s a BIG God with a BIG GLOBAL dream.
That includes you!
He is changing the playing field. Instead of just planting us in a certain geographical location, He is giving us abundance to touch the nations through many pathways like the internet, social media streams, and Zoom meetings, as well as travel.
He wants to expand our reach, which Isaiah 54:2-13 encourages us to do by expanding our tent pegs, our place of influence
For so many years, I thought this referred to ministry, but now in this hour, I know it has to do with covenant or deep relationships where we are fully known and where we are abiding in the Father’s Presence. Through our intimacy with God and with other key relationships in our lives, He will open up the harvest fields to us and reveal His Wisdom for this day and hour.
For example, in September my online Create Academy is expanding to satellite campuses in the UK, the States, and to the Russian-speaking people. All of this happened because of relationships and mentoring, which I have been doing with my students in Create Academy. My family line is now empowering them to start Create Academy weekly meetings within their own community and region. I never thought this was possible- but God DREAMED it and it has come to pass!
I want to prophesy into your future and relational inheritance now:
I bless you to have abundance in all of your relationships. It’s time to stretch out the tent pegs, risk looking foolish as Moses did when he spoke before Pharoah, slay your giants, and fight for God’s Name and His Kingdom through destroying the works of the enemy.
I bless you to no longer stay relationally silent when our brothers and sisters need us as the movie “The Sound of Freedom” illuminates on the screen.
May relational abundance follow you as you hear His voice and fulfill what He has given you to do.
I bless you to find your catalytic creative community that will support you till the end and that God will give you covenant relationships. I bless your families and your children’s children.
I bless the fruit of your hands and all the people who will eat from the fruit of your intimacy with God.
Remember, you are created to overcome and have abundance in relationships!
Let’s GO!
