I HEARD THE LORD SAY ‘DO NOT STOP BECAUSE OF THE INTIMIDATION BEFORE YOU, I AM CAUSING YOU TO MOVE THROUGH WITH BOLDNESS’

Recently I heard the Lord speaking to many, ‘Do not stop because of the intimidation before you, I am causing you to move through with boldness.’

When the Lord spoke these words, I saw many in the Body of Christ who are moving forward on the assignment and word of the Lord and have suddenly come face to face with intimidation. I could see this spirit of intimidation brooding heavily over these ones that were moving forward into the assignment and word of the Lord for their lives right now.

As I leaned in and listened to the Lord, I heard the Lord say:

‘Lift your eyes to the hills, for where does your help come from? It comes from Me, the Maker of heaven and earth. (Ps 121:1) As you continue to look to Me and behold Me, I will cause you to move through with boldness and ease of My Spirit. I say unto you, that there is a testing at the gate, there is a testing at the gate where the enemy is attempting to cause you to withdraw; and I am causing you to arise by My Spirit to apprehend and occupy that which I am calling you to move into. The testing has come at the gate attempting to cause you to doubt My Word to you – the vision I have given you and the assignment before you – but I say unto you, ARISE IN FAITH and SPEAK to that which is attempting to hinder you. 

‘Behold not the intimidation that stands before you with its roaring accusation, but arise with your mouth full of My Word and declare that which I have spoken. And you will see the intimidation that is before you which is attempting to brood itself over you and present itself powerful and intimidating, you will see it is but smoke and mirrors as you declare My Word and what I am speaking.

‘As you arise and proclaim, I say unto you, that you shall continue to step through and step into that which I am calling you into with greater ease in My presence and the slipstream of My Spirit. For I say unto you, as you continue to follow Me where I am leading, you shall find an increase of empowerment of My Spirit and grace that is greater than you have known. For there is a test in this moment to keep your eyes upon that which I have spoken and look not to that which is attempting to intimidate you. For the enemy is terrified of where we are going and what we are going to do together. 

‘I say unto you, that I have brought you into a new day and a new day of vision and wisdom. I will continue to lead you and guide you into all that I have for you; and you shall perceive and see My leading and My ways as you continue to seek Me and remain surrendered to My way. The enemy is attempting to bring distraction into many of your lives to take your gaze off what I am speaking and where I am leading you; but I say unto you, that as you continue to look to Me and look at Me, I am strengthening you in the Word I have given you. I am causing a greater boldness and fire of My conviction to arise within you as I unveil to you greater mysteries and understanding of that which I am showing you.

‘My people, I say unto you, be not dismayed or discouraged by the battle with intimidation that has come before you and to your door, but know that I am strengthening you by My Spirit in endurance and faith to remain and stand on that which I have spoken to you. Where the enemy has come to attempt to cause you to withdraw, to doubt that which I have spoken and to cause you to move from what I have spoken; I say unto you, watch how I shall turn the enemy and his plans on his head as you remain steadfast in what I have spoken. I am building endurance within you. I am maturing you in My Word and in the stretching, I am making room for you to carry that which I am giving to you and calling you to partner with Me.

‘I say unto you, come up higher, come up higher, look to Me and seek Me. Where intimidation is attempting to roar its accusations upon you and lure you into dread and fear of what is to come; I say unto you, that as you continue to partner with Me and follow Me where I am leading, you shall see GREAT JOY AND MY POWER in your midst as you step in. For you shall know JOY in partnering with Me at a deeper level than you have known before. 

‘Continue to remain steadfast, remain obedient to the vision and leading of My Spirit in your midst and do not compromise upon that which I have spoken to you. And WATCH AND SEE MY FAVOUR that shall come upon you to do that which I am calling you to do. For I say unto you, where intimidation is attempting to roar at you how much is against you, I say unto you, listen to My heart and lift up your eyes and see how I AM FOR FOR YOU and see the angelic hosts of heaven that I have surrounded you with. There are more for you than that which is against you. For in Me, if I AM FOR YOU the WHO can be against you? (Rom 8:31)

‘I am leading you into some of your greatest days in Me, where you shall see My Glory and My provision and a mighty move of My Spirit in your midst as you follow Me. For I say unto you, that I am leading you into a greater realm of faith. I am bringing you deeper into the place of learning to live by faith and not by sight. (2 Cor 5:7) For where intimidation is attempting to cause you to crumble or stumble, I say unto you, that I am ESTABLISHING YOU in this hour – in greater maturity and conviction of the truth of My Word and who I am – that you are arising UNSHAKEABLE. 

‘Where you have lived many past seasons and have come to this season feeling like you have been shaken by what you have endured; I say unto you, that in your intimacy with Me and as you seek Me, I am FORTIFYING YOU in TRUTH, MY truth like never before – as the conviction of My Spirit comes upon you in mighty ways to stand boldly and unapologetically in the revelation of My Word, My Rhema Word and what is yours in Me.

‘It’s time for you to arise and take your place in greater ways. Where intimidation and insecurity have attempted to contain you in many ways, I am bringing you great freedom and bringing you into deeper realms of insight into what I am speaking as you seek Me in humility and purity.

‘There is a great increase of building in your midst as you follow Me. Intimidation is attempting to hinder your vision, keep you hidden and contained; but I say unto you, that the fire of My Spirit is coming upon you and you shall be known as one who is a BOLD CARRIER OF MY TRUTH!

‘Intimidation may be roaring loudly, but watch My roar bring My divine order, justice and empowerment. As you remain surrendered to Me, you shall know in greater ways in this season what it is to be carried on the winds of My Spirit and empowerment and come deeper into Zechariah 4:6,

‘“‘Not by might, nor by power, but by My Spirit,’ says the Lord.”’
