From the desk of Steve Shultz:
The Master is "calling" us in many ways and that includes the great harvest at hand. I sure enjoyed reading this article by Ben Lim, who is a Millennial Pastor from the Los Angeles area. He sure has wisdom beyond his years!
This now prophetic word will really strengthen many of you dealing with brokenness even now:
The Lord is repairing what was broken. The Lord is restoring your relationships. The Lord is healing the wounded areas of broken trust and dishonor and He is restoring the areas of discord and division. The Lord is bringing the Body back together. Where the enemy tried to divide you and divide the Body, there is an intense restoration that is coming. The Lord is mending the nets! He is the repairer of the breach and the restorer of the broken.
Now that's a word! Be encouraged in the restoration at hand! (To Subscribe to the Elijah List subscribe here.)

"The Master's Call: Heed His Voice and Be Restored!"
Ben Lim, Los Angeles, CA
I am sensing an unusual anointing of breakthrough and harvest. What we must do is acknowledge the Master, which means acknowledge and heed His voice and His call. It is intimacy with Him that will bring the harvest, not our hard works and ministerial efforts. We can work all day and night but still be working and toiling in vain.
So much of our lives are filled with vanity! The Lord is wanting to turn around your life and all of your situations, even in one night and one moment. All of life's striving, stresses, and worries will cease from one simple word from our Master. When He speaks, we must listen. When He speaks, we must obey. He is the Master and we are His servants. He is the Potter and we are the clay. We must be conduits of obedience, to bring forth His glory here on the earth.
"It's time for the friends of God to come together, despite the differences and putting the pasts behind." |
You may have been working hard all night. You may have been crying out to the Lord! You may be feeling weary, tired and depleted, but the Word of the Lord will strengthen you and create unusual circumstances and supernatural results! The Holy Spirit is about to strengthen you and build you up!
"When He had finished speaking, He said to Simon, 'Put out into deep water, and let down the nets for a catch.'
Simon answered, 'Master, we've worked hard all night and haven't caught anything. But because You say so, I will let down the nets.' When they had done so, they caught such a large number of fish that their nets began to break. So they signaled their partners in the other boat to come and help them, and they came and filled both boats so full that they began to sink." (Luke 5:4-7 NIV)
The Partners Are Coming
The Bible says that they caught such a large number of fish, that their nets began to break. So they signaled their partners in the other boat to come and help them (Luke 5:6-7). When the harvest breaks out, who gets what will be the least of our concerns. The back-biting, the bitterness, the division, and the past histories will all be vanished. When we truly see the glory of the Lord manifest and multiply in our midst, all such childish things will fade away. The reason why this division, back-biting, gossip, slander, and all such things of the flesh exist is because we've become distracted, disillusioned, or discouraged by the lack of harvest and by the tiredness of the night.
Don't let the night defeat you. Don't let the night destroy you. Don't let the night come in between you and the things that matter most. Don't let the unknown, the mystery, and the areas of darkness come in between you and the move of God. The night is fading! (Photo via Unsplash)
Here in the Waiting
Sometimes the periods of waiting can make us a captive of assumptions, wounding and confusion. These periods of waiting many times are tests that many cannot take. This nighttime period literally drives people crazy, causing them to lose their minds and sanity. This nighttime of darkness tests them with feelings of loneliness and questioning, which many times leave a person... (continue reading)
