The oil stain
The oil stain Many years ago, on a Saturday afternoon, I was changing the oil in my car in the car park of the apartment block we lived in. I’m generally quite capable of this without spilling oil and making a mess, but this time, something fell and splashed oil everywhere. I cleaned up all I could, but I was worried about a stain on the concrete—something that would attract an angry letter from the apartment block manager. I had no time to attend to it any further, I locked my car and rushed in for dinner. The next day it still weighed heavily on my mind while I drove…

I HEARD THE LORD SAY ‘IT IS TIME TO UNEARTH’
Recently I heard the Lord say, ‘It is time to unearth.’ As the Lord spoke these words, the picture of an archaeologist digging into the ground kept coming before me and the word ‘DISCOVERY’ was so loud in my spirit. As I leaned into the Lord and listened, I heard: ‘My people, I am calling you deeper. I am calling you deeper into the place of intimacy with Me in this hour; as there are discoveries in Me and deep mysteries that I am uncovering and unveiling to you that you have never seen or received. I say unto you, that I am increasing revelation in this hour that is…

I HEARD THE LORD SAY ‘DAUGHTERS OF GOD, GET READY FOR A NEW ASSIGNMENT’
Recently, I heard the Lord say, ‘Daughters of God, get ready for a new assignment.’ As the Lord spoke these words I could see many daughters of God in the ‘wings of waiting’. I could see many of these daughters were feeling the intensity of the throes of transition. For many, the intensity of the transition had at times felt like it was too much. There had been such a long wilderness that many had been in and there was now a ‘coming up out of the wilderness, leaning on their Beloved’ (Song 8:5). I knew by the Spirit of God that in the throws of transition, through the wilderness…

Walking with a Cast On
Walking with a Cast On Hi friends, Lana and I were teaching in our school last week on the importance of being free of a victim mentality. During the session, a picture came to mind that I felt to share as an encouragement and exhortation to you on this list. Imagine, you hear about a friend who had broken their leg, and now had a plaster cast on – as is the process of healing. I have known people to have a cast on for six weeks, sometimes twelve, depending on the break. But if you saw your friend six months later still with a cast, trying to walk on it (as…

RECENTLY I HEARD THE LORD SAY ‘THERE ARE MANY FACING AN INCREASE OF WARFARE AGAINST THEIR MINDS. STAND AGAINST IT. THERE IS AN INVITATION INTO A SIGNIFICANT INCREASE OF DISCERNMENT.’
Recently, I heard the Lord say, ‘There are many facing an increase of warfare against their minds. Stand against it. There is an invitation into a significant increase of discernment.’ As the Lord spoke these words, I saw there were many who are facing a very intense battle of the mind right now. The Lord showed me that there was significant increase of psychological warfare taking place for many right now, and it is IMPERATIVE to stand against it and to be postured in obedience to 2 Corinthians 10:5: ‘We destroy arguments and every lofty opinion raised against the knowledge of God, and take every thought captive to obey Christ.’…

I HEARD THE LORD SAY ‘CRUCIFY COMPLAINING’
Recently, I heard the Lord say, ‘Crucify complaining.’ As the Lord spoke these words, I could feel the Holy Spirit bringing conviction upon complaining in the lives of believers. I then heard Philippians 2:14-15: ‘Do everything without complaining and arguing, so that no one can criticise you. Live clean, innocent lives as children of God, shining like bright lights in a world full of crooked and perverse people.’ (NLT) As I sat and pondered those words ‘crucify complaining’ I asked the Lord why He used the word ‘crucify’ and immediately He spoke to me: ‘I am calling My people to bring complaining to the Cross. To die to complaining at…
