5 Types of Opposition You May Be Facing
1. Opposition to the deeper reset/rest:
This is where the enemy wars against you entering the secret place, bombarding you with busyness, striving, pressure to get things done, and sudden, overwhelming distractions. The healing and heart clearing is so important right now, and for some of you, God is doing a complete makeover, cutting hidden ties, and removing wounds and trauma you didn't even know you were carrying.
2. Opposition of clarity to receive revelation/blueprints:
This is where the enemy sends chatter and words against you, where the atmosphere feels foggy and confusion tries to set in, and while God is always speaking, it feels like the pieces don't connect or they seem unclear. For many people, this is manifested in the battle of the mind coming against them right now, and the temptation to fall back into old mindsets, fears, and panic, but it has mainly been coming through people's words of mockery and judgment. The war against you to RECEIVE is happening because the delivery is vital right now.
3. Opposition on your voice:
In a time where the pure and clear prophetic has never been needed more, there has been an obvious assignment to shut down voices rising up. Often disguised as wisdom, safe-guarding, and protecting purity (which are all necessary), this impostor spirit wants to shut down the prophetic by causing division and fault-finding. It's a critical spirit which, instead of broadcasting hope, is broadcasting opinions and agendas. This causes true voices of hope to shut down and hide.
4. Opposition on what God is building in you:
This is where the enemy directly hits you in the very area God is really adding favor, anointing, conviction, and vision. He wants to sabotage it by making you second guess yourself, bringing in controlling people and measures to taint it, or causing delays and setbacks/closed doors in the places God has promised.

5. Opposition to your mantle and new mission/appointment:
This is very much the same as the opposition against what God is building in you but, specifically, this opposition comes as a direct result of the noticeable increase you have stepped into, and the office/appointment you have before you. The enemy sees the new mantle, and your sudden fire and rising authority, and has been warring against the appointment with weariness and disappointment. This is where you need wisdom and discernment to know that you aren't taking on yokes, the wrong armor, or other people's stuff, but only taking on what God anoints and mantles you with.
Why Am I Dealing with Opposition Right Now?
1. God is taking you from GLORY TO GLORY. Your story is changing. Your track history is changing.
2. God is LIFTING you out of a whole way of living that you've become way too used to. He is administering... (continue reading)
