From the desk of Steve Shultz:
Being in my 60s, I can say this was a word I thoroughly enjoyed reading and receiving for myself.
We've posted words about God re-firing, not re-tiring, the mature and well-seasoned ones in the Body of Christ.
If you think you are in your golden, leisure years of no purpose...you are WRONG! God is not done with you at any age and you have so much to offer to the younger generation. They need to hear about your testimony, your experience and your wisdom you've gained over the years! They need mothers and fathers to sow and pour into them.
As our friend Lana Vawser shares here:
I heard the Holy Spirit say: "Where you have been through intense seasons of fire, it is now time for you to move into a season of awakening, impartation and release of My fire through you. You are now to carry My fire more powerfully than you ever have. Great healing, restoration, increase and freedom was given to you in the fire. Now it is time for you to take your place in greater ways. Get ready for great favor to open up over you. Get ready for the activation of My Spirit upon you to FATHER and MOTHER many in the Body of Christ and in the world – to nurture, to model, to build, to assist and to mentor."
Please do me a favor and send this word out to all your mature friends and family who need to know that they have great destiny and purpose...even much more than in their younger years! (To Subscribe to the Elijah List subscribe here.)

"A Word for Those 55 and Over: Your Best Days Are Ahead, Not Behind You!"
Lana Vawser, Brisbane, Australia
For quite a while now, I have had a strong stirring in my spirit of a fresh new move of the Spirit of God upon those 55 years old and above in this season. As I have carried this word for a few months now, I felt the Lord prompt me to release it now. When the Spirit of God began stirring this message in me for those 55 years old and over, I heard Him whisper to me:
"Many of My children 55 years old and over have felt forgotten. They have felt abandoned. They have felt left to the side – while others have an excitement in their spirits for what is to come and what I am doing, but are awaiting My direction. There have been circumstances, people and the enemy who have spoken words and lies over My precious ones, suggesting their 'best days' are behind them. But I am decreeing the exact OPPOSITE.
Their Best Days are Upon Them
"The best days for these precious ones in Me are upon them. Many of these precious ones are now moving into a season of such great awakening. Awakening to their identity in greater ways, as many have not known their identity deeply. They are awakening to who I am and awakening to their giftings and callings in greater ways.
| "Where you have been through intense seasons of fire it is now time for you to move into a season of awakening, impartation and release of My fire through you." |
"Many have dreams left behind, dreams left on the wayside and many are carrying regret, but I am decreeing: My beautiful children, you are moving into a season of seeing Me move more powerfully IN and THROUGH YOU than you have ever seen before, and you are going to move into a deeper place of 'DREAMS DO COME TRUE!' There is a great season of REFRESHING upon you that is being released in the WONDER of who I am and the work of My hand.
I have been feasting on a Scripture from Psalm 92:12-14:
"Yes! Look how You've made all Your lovers to flourish like palm trees, each one growing in victory, standing with strength! You have transplanted them into Your heavenly courtyard where they are thriving before You. For in Your presence they will still overflow and be anointed. Even in their old age they will stay fresh, bearing luscious fruit and abiding faithfully." (The Passion Translation)
I heard the Lord whisper over His beautiful children 55 and over: "I am decreeing... (continue reading)
