Following the Lord's Leading
I am hearing strongly that there has been a shift and our faith needs to shift to go with it. It is time for our faith to rise high and expect miracles! We are in the Hebraic month of Elul – the King is in the field and we have His favor! We have entered the Hebraic year of 5779, and nine represents birthing, fullness and fruitfulness! Believe that miracles are waiting to come forth – great healings, deliverances – restoration to original intent! The Kingdom is at hand!
I am speaking from a place of witness. In the last few months, I have experienced some miracles. One was a miraculous God intervention in a situation where the doctors said over a family member, "This is the new baseline; there is no treatment, no cure, no hope." But GOD! He gave me a directive and I was obedient.
"His mother said to the servants, 'Whatever He says to you, do it.'" (John 2:5 NKJV)
I have to tell you, it was a stretch of my faith. I know that with God all things are possible. I have seen countless miracles and healings in my personal life and others' as well, but in this situation there was all the reason in the world to believe the doctors' reports. God told me to speak to my family member in a way that did not seem logical for the situation. Yet in the command itself, hope was generated and I thought, "What do I have to lose?" I asked God to help me in my unbelief (see Mark 9:24)! (Photo via Unsplash)
My family member responded in a way completely unexpected and Holy Spirit nudged me to keep going, to delve deeper. She confessed secret sins and received forgiveness, and gave forgiveness for other situations where that was necessary. She was delivered from fear, guilt and shame. In a manner of a week or two, the miracle happened. Her mind was completely restored to normal. God turned it around. We were all astonished and amazed.
The experience caused a ripple effect upon her son and in the circumstances it seemed the worst was going to happen. Yet God moved AGAIN, and in a matter of a few short weeks, her son grew emotionally by leaps and bounds and has been delivered from the spirit of lawlessness and rebellion. There were other occurrences stemming from the progression and outcome of the miracle that were answers to prayers as well.
GOD IS MOVING EVEN WHEN IT LOOKS IMPOSSIBLE! Believe in His goodness and His desire to see His Kingdom come in your life and others' lives. Declare and decree His goodness, His love, His justice, His mercy, His life and glory in every dark and seemingly destroyed situation.
God is in the Midst of Thee – Cast Your Net on the Other Side
In the middle of the circumstances, it looked worse than it ever had. If you can relate to this, I speak to that spirit of fear, doubt and hopelessness in your life and declare: GOD IS IN THE MIDST! HE IS IN THE CENTER OF THE STORM! Stay where He is and He will show you what He is doing and give you divine strategies. Hold fast to Jesus; He is with you and He has heard every prayer, every declaration, every decree. He has seen your travailing in your situation. A miracle is ready to be birthed; hold fast in faith! I have been hearing for weeks, "Cast your net on the other side."
"And He said unto them, Cast the net on the right side of the ship, and ye shall find. They cast therefore, and now they were not able to draw it for the multitude of fishes." (John 21:6 KJV)
It's time to cast our nets – our way of thinking – outside of the norm and into the realm where the faith of Jesus exists (KJV: Romans 3:22; Galatians 2:16, 20; Ephesians 3:12; Philippians 3:9; Revelation 14:12). He is in us, we have the mind of Christ. So we purposefully cast our cares upon Him and go deep in the waters with Holy Spirit until we perceive the LORD is in our midst and receive His mind and HIS faith about the situation! He wants His Kingdom to come to the earth more than we do!
