I HEARD THE LORD SPEAKING TO MANY DAUGHTERS OF GOD ‘AS YOU STEP UP AND OUT, YOU WILL FLY’
I heard the Lord speaking to many daughters of God, ‘As you step up and out, you will fly.’ As the Lord spoke these words I felt this word was being released from the heart of God to the daughters of God who have heard the Lord speak to them to step up, step out and to follow His leading in new assignments, new directives and many different areas that He is asking them to step out. But fear and intimidation has been coming hard against them and the taunts from the enemy of foreboding if they arise and step out. As I leaned into the Lord’s heart and listened,…

I HEARD THE LORD SAY ‘DO NOT FIND YOURSELF CAUGHT IN DELAY BY LIVING IN COMPARISON OF OTHERS’ SEASONS’
Recently I heard the Lord say, ‘Do not find yourself caught in delay by living in comparison of others’ seasons.’ As the Lord spoke these words I continued to lean into His heart and listen: ‘My precious people, there is major transition taking place in many ways right now. I am calling you up higher in guarding your hearts and your focus as I am moving in your midst in greater ways than you can see. ‘I say unto you, that there are many living in places of comparison by placing their eyes upon the seasons that others are walking in and longing to walk in the footsteps of others.…

I HEARD THE LORD SAY ‘A WORD TO THE WEARY – I WILL REPAY’
Recently, I heard the Lord say, ‘A word to the weary – I will repay.’ When the Lord spoke these words I felt the continued weight of weariness that many were carrying and walking in, and I felt the strong emphasis of the Lord on the word ‘WILL.’As I leaned into the Lord’s heart, I could feel His faithfulness resounding loudly and resting so heavily upon that word ‘WILL.’ I could feel the Father’s heart so strongly that He was wanting to encourage those who are weary and feeling like they are going from ‘weariness to weariness’ rather than from ‘strength to strength.’ (Ps 84:7) And that He is going…

Hope and Faith
I was listening to an old sermon the other day, during which a conversation was recounted that made me think. A grieving man was talking to his pastor; he had prayed for a long time for God to intervene in a dire situation, praying for a miracle that would have saved someone’s life. The miracle didn’t happen, despite his believing he was standing in faith for the victory. While I sympathised with the man in the story, it became a challenge to my heart to better understand the dynamic of faith, especially if we are to take the words of Jesus seriously. “Because of your unbelief; for assuredly, I say…

I HEARD THE LORD SAY ‘I AM BRINGING MANY FULL CIRCLE, BUT IT SHALL NOT BE AS IT WAS, IT SHALL BE WITH INCREASE’
Recently I heard the Lord say, ‘I am bringing many full circle, but it shall not be as it was, it shall be with increase.’ When the Lord spoke those words I could feel the Lord’s heart so strongly, that as He is bringing many into ‘full-circle’ places, it would not be as it was. There are new strategies of the Lord as He brings them full circle. There is healing as He brings them full circle. There is great restoration as He brings them full circle. As I leaned into the Lord and listened, I heard the Lord say:‘There is great FREEDOM and JOY in the full-circle fullness. My…

Faithfulness and Faith
As I have been looking through the fruit of the Spirit of late, my focus has been turned to the seventh fruit listed, faithfulness. Faithfulness, to me, speaks of dependability, fidelity and reliability. It is an essential quality in marriage, and a powerful foundation in friendship. It is the relationship between Jonathan and his armour-bearer, or, in Tolkien, Sam to Frodo. With faithful companionship, terrible circumstances are traversed with a sense of peace because of the mutual support and confidence they share. We know faithfulness is a trait of God. God’s love and faithfulness could be seen as his most hope-inspiring qualities. Yea, though I walk through the valley…
