I HEARD THE LORD SAY ‘RECLAIM YOUR SPACE!’
This morning I heard the Lord thundering over many, ‘RECLAIM YOUR SPACE.’
As I heard the Lord speaking these words, I heard the Lord say:
‘You must REMAIN and RECLAIM. You will NOT be chased out of your land.’
As the Lord spoke these words, I felt such a strong sense from the Lord’s heart again of the word ‘ADVANCE.’ This IS the time where the Lord is speaking and declaring ‘ADVANCEMENT’ over His people.
I could feel so much pressure against so many right now to RUN. I have been hearing the Lord speaking over and over and over in this season, encouraging many not to run from what God has called them to. This morning the Lord said to me that the pressure to run which has come against many right now is attempting to cause many to feel like there is something wrong with them, that they are not as strong in the Lord as they thought they were. I could see many surprised by the level of intensity of the pull to ‘run away’ that they were feeling and many were feeling a temptation to begin to come into deep condemnation and discouragement that they were not standing as strong in the Lord as they once were.
As I saw this I began to see these whirlwinds surrounding them and they were so fierce. And I heard the Lord say, ‘There are words, SO MANY WORDS. Tear down the WORDS.’ Then suddenly Isaiah 54:17 surrounded me:
‘But no weapon that is formed against you shall prosper, and every tongue that shall rise against you in judgment you shall show to be in the wrong. This [peace, righteousness, security, triumph over opposition] is the heritage of the servants of the Lord [those in whom the ideal Servant of the Lord is reproduced]; this is the righteousness or the vindication which they obtain from Me [this is that which I impart to them as their justification], says the Lord.’
Isaiah 54:17 (AMPC)
I continued to lean into the Lord and listen and I heard:
‘No weapon formed against you shall prosper, My people. Every tongue that rises against you in judgement, you shall condemn. Arise, My people, and take authority over that which is being spoken against you. Arise and tear down the words of accusation and death that the enemy is speaking over you. Align not your expectations with words and narratives of death that are contrary to My Word. Align your expectation with what MY WORD SAYS! DO NOT MOVE FROM MY WORD!!! Arise and bring down every witchcraft word that is being spoken against you. For I say unto you, of the barrage that many of you are facing from many directions – barrage of words being spoken, barrage of discouragement, barrage of intimidation – STAND AGAINST IT.
‘For I say unto, you do not listen to the voice of the accuser that is attempting to derail you with lies and accusations that you have not heard My voice and that you are moving in the wrong direction or that you have moved out of step with Me. YOU KNOW what I have spoken to you, for I have confirmed My Word to you. The enemy is attempting to derail you, but I say unto you, that as you continue to remain standing up My Word and what I have spoken to you, continue to move in the ways that I have been leading you, you will SEE an advancement like you have not seen before.
‘I say unto you, that within the pressure of the intimation and opposition which you have been facing, I say unto you, that I am bringing forth a birthing that you have not yet seen. I am bringing forth an expansion of My plans and purposes for My Kingdom through you that is far beyond what you have imagined. Despite what your emotions and your heart tell you at times, I AM strengthening you as you seek Me. I AM fortifying you in faith as you seek Me. I am building you in perseverance and endurance in deeper ways as you seek Me. I say unto you, that what many of you are walking right now will not be for nothing, for I am the Lord that turns ALL THINGS for your good. (Romans 8:28)
‘I say unto you, SPEAK to the mountains to be moved. I say unto you, SPEAK what I have spoken to the giants that are attempting to intimidate you. And as you speak My Word and what I have spoken to that which is attempting to hinder you and oppose you, you shall see the POWER of My Word and My Spirit bring down that which is attempting to hinder you. You shall see that much of what many of you have been facing is but smoke and mirrors. It is after your authority in Me and where I am leading you. The enemy wants you to remain in discouragement, hopelessness, lack, despair and weariness, but I say unto you, that I have armed you in Me with ALL that you need to overcome. I have armed you with My Spirit, My Word and My strategy.
‘Put your stake in the ground again. Keep your eyes on Me and remind the enemy again that THIS is the land that I have given you. THIS is the land that I have promised you. THIS is the promise that I have given you and that you will see My goodness in the land of the living.
‘“[What, what would have become of me] had I not believed that I would see the Lord’s goodness in the land of the living! Wait and hope for and expect the Lord; be brave and of good courage and let your heart be stout and enduring. Yes, wait for and hope for and expect the Lord.”
Psalm 27: 13-14 (AMPC)
‘You WILL see My goodness. I am strengthening you in ways that you do not know or yet see. The fortification of your faith being established in Me through the intensity, the fire, the pressure and the opposition is taking place as you continue to look to Me and continue to remain in My Word.
‘The enemy is attempting to evict you from the places that I have given to you, but I say unto you, that as you remain in faith and reclaim your space, following Me and My leading, you SHALL SEE VICTORY. I am turning what the enemy is planning on its head and you shall see great recompense. Ask Me. Ask Me for recompense. Ask Me for double for the trouble that you have been walking (Is 61:7). You are more than a conqueror in Me and I am further awakening the warrior within you. I am further awakening My fire within you, the fire of faith and the power of My Word to conquer and to apprehend.
‘“And from the days of John the Baptist until the present time, the kingdom of heaven has endured violent assault, and violent men seize it by force [as a precious prize—a share in the heavenly kingdom is sought with most ardent zeal and intense exertion].”
Matthew 11:12 (AMPC)
‘I am speaking this is the time to ADVANCE AND APPREHEND! This is the time to ADVANCE AND APPREHEND. Where the enemy is speaking foreboding and the death and end of things I have promised you, I say unto you, the truth is, there is a coming forth of the NEW THINGS and NEW BEGINNINGS that I have for you. Do not align with words of death. Remain in My Words, the Words of life. I am roaring a great restore. I am roaring vindication. I am arising on your behalf and your enemies shall be scattered. Take back by faith and the declaration of your mouth that which the enemy is attempting to take from you. I am not only causing a great repositioning in your life by My Spirit, but I am bringing forth an expansion and an advancing.
‘Your vision will no longer be limited. I am causing you to come up higher in your divine insight and discernment. I am causing you to see even more deeply by My Spirit what I am bringing you into. What has been veiled will no longer be veiled. There will be great understanding. As you continue to fellowship with Me and linger with Me, oh, the courage and boldness that I am causing to come forth from within you. It’s a new wave of My boldness and courage that is BREAKING OFF TIMIDITY! I say unto you, TIMIDITY will NO LONGER be part of your story. I say unto you, that I am raising you up as an UNAPOLOGETIC SON AND DAUGHTER OF MINE.
‘I am causing you to ARISE with My fire in your mouth and you shall SPEAK without apology that which I am calling you to speak. You shall SPEAK My truth and you shall see the darkness dispelled. Much of this opposition against you is not only coming against what I am doing IN you and where I am leading you, but it is coming against your MOUTH and My authority upon MY Words that I have put in your mouth to TEAR DOWN the works darkness. The enemy has come so ferociously against you to keep you muzzled, but I say unto you, the MUZZLES are being broken and you shall declare by faith, that which I am calling you to speak and you shall see GREAT DELIVERANCE and a TEARING DOWN in the spirit of the works of darkness.
‘I say unto you, that I have been training you deeply in discernment and warfare. I have brought you to a new level of understanding of the plans and schemes of the enemy. Not a focus upon the enemy, not giving the enemy agreement or any authority but not being ignorant of his schemes. (2 Cor 2:11)
‘You have been walking intense training by My Spirit and in My Word to KNOW and RECOGNISE the wiles of the enemy. And I have and am leading you into a greater understanding of your authority and the strategies in prayer, intercession and obedience to My ways in walking by faith to OVERCOME in ways that you have not before. As you continue to lean into My process and the work of My Spirit, as I teach you and train you in My Word – walking in a renewed mind and by My voice – you shall go forth with a sharpened discernment in these ways like never before. I am truly moving you from living on the defense to the offense. Don’t align with the narrative of the enemy. I am moving you into greater victory.
‘Arise from your weariness and slumber. Arise and RECLAIM your space that I have given unto you and refuse to move through your prayer, intercession, declaration and obedience. What you are actually standing IN is one of the greatest shifts that you have experienced. I am not only repaying you for all that has been lost, I am stretching you for expansion and advancement. This isn’t the end, it’s a NEW BEGINNING!’
