From the desk of Steve Shultz:
It is most certainly a time for dreams to come to pass! We are posting 2 articles today that will push you forward in all God has for you.
If you've dealt with dreams not coming to pass yet..now is the time to push ahead as Anita Alexander of Australia shares this most exhorting word:
As the Jewish exiles who exited the captivity in Babylon came to a moment in time of fulfilled prophesy, they felt like they were in a dream. And so it is in this season; there will be a fulfillment of the word of the Lord to many of God's people that will come to pass in such a way that it will feel like it is a dream. But it will bear such fruit of JOY!
Some things that the Lord has in store for us, we'll be pinching ourselves saying, "Is this really happening? It's too good to be true!" Now that's the God we serve! (To Subscribe to the Elijah List subscribe here.)

"A Time of Dreams Fulfilled - with Great Joy!"
Anita Alexander, Gold Coast, Australia
Within the last couple of months, JOY is the word that kept rolling over in my spirit every time I would look forward and pray into 2019. I was surprised at first, and I suppose this reaction revealed that my heart was expecting to hear something different from the Lord. Maybe a "stronger" word like "BREAKTHROUGH" or "VICTORY" was what I was expecting to hear.
But when I embraced this word as I heard it, my heart began to experience the refreshing rain this word brings. It's a healing rain, restoring rain, and reviving rain. Then, my spirit began to leap. Throughout Scripture, JOY is always linked to His presence, awakening, the fulfillment of promises and the mighty deliverance of God!
"...in Your presence is fullness of joy; at Your right hand are pleasures forevermore!" (Psalm 16:11)
Revival, Awakening and the Intentional Return to the Presence of God
"Will You not REVIVE us again, that YOUR people may REJOICE in YOU?" (Psalm 85:6 emphasis mine)
This coming year there will be an intentional return to the presence of God amongst His people that will result in great JOY; songs of JOY, shouts of JOY as well as JOY and CELEBRATION that borders like a fortification and acts as an impenetrable strength to HIS PEOPLE (Nehemiah 8:10).
A Psalm 126 Year
Moreover what I heard the Lord say was that this year was going to be a PSALM 126 YEAR!
Let's take a look verse by verse in the Amplified Classic version, "When the Lord brought back the captives [who returned] to Zion, we were like those who dream [it seemed so unreal]" (Psalm 126:1). (Photo via Unsplash)
As the Jewish exiles who exited the captivity in Babylon came to a moment in time of fulfilled prophesy, they felt like they were in a dream. And so it is in this season; there will be a fulfillment of the word of the Lord to many of God's people that will come to pass in such a way that it will feel like it is a dream. But it will bear such fruit of JOY!
"Then were our mouths filled with laughter, and our tongues with singing. Then they said among the nations, THE LORD HAS DONE GREAT THINGS FOR THEM!" (Psalm 126:2 emphasis mine)
JOY IS THE FRUIT that will manifest amongst the people of God as they experience the faithfulness of the Lord to His word in their lives. In addition, it will be as such to cause those around that do not serve Him to notice and give attention to it and even proclaim the goodness of God actively displayed in the Lord's people's lives.
"The Lord has done great things for us! WE are GLAD!" (Psalm 126:3 emphasis mine)
This is the declaration of God's people that will... (continue reading)
