What Heaven is Saying Today
I began my time with the Lord by praying the following scriptures.
Psalm 85:6, “Will You not revive us again, that Your people may rejoice in You?”
Habakkuk 3:2, “O Lord, revive Your work in the midst of the years!”
Galatians 4:19, “My little children, for whom I labor (travail) in birth again until Christ is formed in you,”
Hosea 10:12b, “Break up your fallow ground, for it is time to seek the Lord, till He comes and rains righteousness on you.”
Psalm 29:1-2, “ Give unto the Lord, O you mighty ones, give unto the Lord glory and strength. Give unto the Lord the glory due to His name; worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness.”
As I went facedown before the Lord, I saw, in a vision, a great fish hook being lowered down from Heaven. This is a great day to fish for the lost and bring them back to the Lord. There is a powerful evangelistic anointing being released by the Holy Spirit today. I thought about Matthew 4:18-20, “And Jesus, walking by the Sea of Galilee, saw two brothers, Simon called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea; for they were fishermen. Then He said to them, ‘Follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men.’ They immediately left their nets and followed Him.” Are you ready to go fishing today? My heart is crying out to the Lord to revive us again and to restore the joy of the Lord in our hearts, homes and churches. How about you? Are we ready to put action to our words today? I am crying out for more revival fire and more boldness among the modern day disciples of Yeshua ha Messiach. I am crying out for us to break up the fallow ground in our hearts and in our ministries.
I saw enemy attacks being released almost immediately following this call from the Lord. First, I saw a vehicle coming to an intersection. A decision had to be made about whether to take the right fork in the road or the left. Just after making the decision, I saw the vehicle spinning on the highway. I cried out and heard other intercessor crying out, “Peace! Be Still! Stop spinning!” then the vehicle slowed without a crash. It is important to be very careful driving again today. It is critically important for the intercessors to be at work before the throne of grace today! The enemy wants to take you out. Then I saw a danger of getting into conflict with others which will escalate into a physical fight. We must not take the bait today. Again, the prayer is: “Shalom! Be Still!” Amen? Remember the advice in Proverbs 20:3, “It is to a man’s honor to avoid strife, but every fool is quick to quarrel.”
After this, I was given a vision of walking down a long corridor in a building covered inside and out with gold. You probably know what this building is. I walked though several arched doorways and turned into a room where people were putting on battle armor. I saw some like the ancient Romans and others like the armor of the knights of old. It suddenly struck me that these protective suits would have been impressive by ancient standards, but would provide little protection against modern weaponry. We need something more. We need our spiritual armor and spiritual weapons. The verse coming to my mind over and over was: “So he answered and said to me: ‘This is the word of the Lord to Zerubbabel: ‘Not by might nor by power, but by My Spirit,’ says the Lord of hosts.” (Zachariah 4:6) The most powerful protection is to be surrounded by the presence, power and glory of the Lord. I am praying for that presence today for you and for me. I am reminded of what David said, “The Lord is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer; The God of my strength, in whom I will trust; my shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold and my refuge; my Savior, You save me from violence.” (2 Samuel 22:2-3)
Meditate on these promises today. Remember the words of David in Psalm 18:2-3, “The Lord is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold. I will call upon the Lord, who is worthy to be praised; so shall I be saved from my enemies.” Trust in the Lord! He is your salvation today and every day! May you always walk in the presence, name and power of Yeshua ha Messiach! Amen and Amen!!!
