AGGRESSIVE FAITH SEES THE VICTORY.

We have never seen anything like what is happening today.

God defines our future.  He sets times and seasons.  We were made for such a time as this.  His favor is upon us.  He has poured out His grace enabling us to do the impossible.  Take the limits off, says the Lord.  Be strong and very courageous.  Do not grow weary.  Put your confidence in Me says the Lord.  Stay buoyant in your heart.  Circumstances are temporary.  Set your eyes on things above.  See above the circumstances.  Speak from being seated high above all powers and principalities for you are seated with Christ.

Here are some excerpts from prophetic words to help you understand the times and what God is speaking to us.  Be encouraged.

• I have called you victorious and more than conquerors.  When the wind blows the righteous seed goes where the wind takes it.   The Lord says I have a great heart for the nations.  You are willing ones trained by Me and willing to go.

• The Lord says that with a mighty thrust I am taking the enemy’s sword and causing his destruction.   He is a defeated foe.   Church be strong and courageous in this time.  I am using you as My own sword.  I have put My word in your mouth and that word is My sword.  This is a day of truly overcoming and breaking forth.  You have been created for this.
  

• The Lord says that I am adjusting your vision to see victory.   David saw the victory before he ran after Goliath.  See the mountain that is before you – see the enemy already defeated.   I am adjusting your vision and you will run after your enemy like David.  I am causing you to see the victory.   Do not be passive.  Victory is NOW!  Have aggressive faith that says the enemy is defeated.  Your victory is not coming – it is already here through the cross.  Your victory is NOW, so rise up and run.  Declare what I have already done, for I have given you the victory.  You have overcoming faith.  Rise up now!   I am shaking you out of complacency and stagnancy.   No longer wait and see.   Go and possess the land with aggressive faith.  See your victory and run toward your victory.  Run with the eyes of faith – your victory is in the blood; it is in the cross.   Go and enforce the victory that has already been won.   Go in aggressive faith.  Let faith roar and charge forth in victory.  Receive your victory.   It is yours!
  

• God says, there is an outpouring of abundance.   New doors have been opened.   The land is green.   A new grace has been released.  The blessing is here.  There is an overflow.  Abundant favor.   It is a new level.  The nations will come to you.  They receive answers from your lips.  Move with the speed of the Holy Ghost.  You are favored.
  

• You are being called back into alignment says the Lord.   It won’t be long. I am going to do it at the speed of a freight train.   You will either be on or off.  This is a time of grace to come into a new level.  This is a time of outpouring.   Hear the voice of Holy Spirit and move when He says to move.   You are becoming new wine skins in your consecration.   I am giving you prophetic clarity, opening your eyes of understanding and your heart of faith.
  

This is a prophetic word from Lana Vawser that is very relevant to understanding where we are and what to do:

The Lord says I am training you in faith in greater ways and in your decree so that you can carry what I am going to release.  Too many people are being led by their soul and not their spirit.  It is time for the ferocious focus of faith.  There is a fire coming within you that is going to raise your faith to an incredible level.  I am imparting a gift of faith to many in this new era.  This will change the whole way you do life.  I am awakening by My Spirit and I am shaking things up.  I am coming as the Lion of Judah to ROAR over your life and to awaken you to who you are and to who I am.  And in that place where you encounter me and the ROAR of My authority you will not be the same.  This fire will come up from within you.  Then you will say, I am not satisfied, and I will not live like this anymore.  I am the One who writes your story.  The script is changing.  The enemy has tried to write your story.  But I am writing your story.  I say this is who you are.  Before you were formed in the womb this is what I wrote about you.  I will give you revelation of what is written in the books of heaven over your life.  I will show you what is to come for your life.  Where the enemy has tried to write your story is going to lose its power.  I am releasing an infusion of faith in your heart to run with Me in ways you have not run before.

An exhortation from me:

Aggressive faith is rooted in the fear of the Lord.  It is an attitude of the heart.  It is a lens we see through.  Aggressive faith is filled with dynamic force that pushes against and overwhelms any resistance.  There is supernatural power in faith that can remove mountains.  This kind of faith cannot be stopped.  Circumstances cannot shut this faith down.  Fierce aggressive faith is filled with courage – strength to advance, to withstand pressure, not overpowered by circumstances and brands you as unstoppable.  Miracles flow out of ferocious faith. Ferocious faith defines the future.  Fierce aggressive faith is intense, strong and powerful.  It is confident and focused.  Fierce aggressive faith has the sound of the Lion of Judah.  Fierce comes from the Latin word “ferus” which means strong, proud, dangerous and ready to ROAR.  This faith has a roaring sound that terrorizes the enemy.  Step into this new dimension of aggressive faith that God is releasing in this new era.  It is a dimension beyond what we have experienced and been part of.  Fierce aggressive faith creates an environment where the enemy cannot exist.  The decrees and declarations that come out of this dimension of faith bring God’s kingdom and His will into a place establishing a new order.

There is a freshness that comes at the beginning of a new year.  In the atmosphere of the beginning of a new year there is a desire and sense that new things can be accomplished.  That is why people make new year resolutions.  God has made it so that ALL people (saved and not saved) sense the potential and possibilities that are available at the beginning.

Remember in Genesis chapter 1, "…In the beginning God created…"  As we step into a NEW YEAR God connects us all to the creativity that exists in that new place.  This is the pattern of God.  He is the Giver of NEW BEGINNINGS tying us all to hope.  This whole dynamic is part of the prophetic dimension that God extends to us.  The more we understand what the prophetic is and includes, the more we can benefit from this incredible gift of God!  The prophetic is all about the future.  Scripture says, "For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."  Holy Spirit brings us continual revelation of our future – this is the prophetic.  And in that future is ALWAYS hope because God puts it there.  If you can’t see the hope or hear the hope in your future, ask Holy Spirit to lead and connect you to this hope – IT IS ALWAYS THERE.

Here are some excerpts from our December 29th Sunday service that released prophetic perspective for 2020.

• See to it that you do not refuse Him who is speaking (Hebrews 12.25).  This will be a year of cleansing and purifying of hearts.
• The Lord is going to detox our hearts by going to the very core of our hearts.
• The Lord is desiring truth in our inner most being (Psalm 51).
• The pure in heart will see the Lord (Psalm 24).
• All of the issues of life flow from the heart; hearts needed to be guarded (Proverbs 4).
• The Lord says, "Don’t be focused on all of the tension in the world, be focused on the tension God is stirring in your heart.  As you allow Him to establish you on the firm foundation of Jesus, you will overcome the tension on the outside.  For this is a time you will be either hot or cold, you can’t straddle the fence any longer.  Yes, there is gross darkness in the world but don’t loose focus because of the natural things.  The glory of the Lord is rising in you."
• This year focus your eyes on Jesus, for this year we are going to get rid of all the things that encumber us.

This is a year of solemn assembly.
This will be a year of acceleration.
God is taking His people, separating them out of the world and making us His own.
Love the Lord with all of your soul, all of your might and all of your heart.
Walk in His ways.
Serve Him.
The Lord wants ALL of our hearts.
He is pouring His grace upon on us that we might have whole hearts.
God says, fasten me upon your heart as a seal of fire that will seal you in My love.
Yield everything to the fiery love of God.
God’s love never fails.
The cutting edge of the prophetic is the fiery passionate love of His heart.
Enter and receive God’s love like never before.
In the midst of His love you will find the empowering grace for all that comes in 2020.
Let His love saturate and fill you and let it fill your mouth with His words of life.
The love of God purifies our hearts burning away prejudice, offense and rejection.
The love of God shed abroad in your heart will change your language.

Prophesy spoken to us: "I have called you to newness of life.  I have called you My children and My children hear My voice.  I am doing a new thing and I am revealing it to you.  I have put rivers in your desert.  Old things have passed away and all things have become new.  I have taken many old things and I have brought newness to the old.  So look again – the things that you understood in the past you will see through the lens of the newness of life in this coming year."

In the natural there will be: increased lawlessness, an antichrist spirit will come at a heightened level, war over who controls the air – the air waves and waterways and water supply.  Michigan is strategic to this because we have the Great Lakes.  Lawsuits will be filed trying to get Michigan’s water.  Food shortages in the USA.  Increase in unusual weather.  Earthquakes even where there are no fault lines.  Increased natural disasters.  Increased persecution and attacks on the true church.  Increased division between evil and righteousness.  Middle ground will be taken away.  One small nuclear strike somewhere in the world.

In the supernatural there will be young prophets arising in boldness to speak the word of the Lord.  Prophets will be able to speak into this nation in a new way.  Increasing influence of righteousness in the 7 mountains of culture.  The fear of the Lord will return to the church.  Holiness will return.  God is no longer allowing compromise in His people and church.  Radical salvation of some young people who God will raise up quickly, and they will have great influence in the nation for His kingdom.

As we enter a new year and a new decade the Lord will help us to embrace and align with how He is moving and what He is saying through the prophetic word.  We are entering a year where the emphasis will be upon the mouth and the words spoken.  Through social media there are many portals in our lives for us to hear what is being spoken by many groups with multiple agendas.  2020 will be a time that we will need greater discernment than ever before as deception increases.

What will we be speaking in 2020?  How will we talk?  What arguments will try to persuade us to join their point of view?  There are many talking heads in our culture today.  Jesus said that He only speaks what His Father in heaven speaks.  David says in the Psalms that he put a guard over his mouth, meaning he carefully considered what words he spoke.  Paul tells the Colossian people there are ones that take pleasure in pretending to be experts of something they know nothing about.  Their reasoning is meaningless and comes only from their own opinions.  Jesus tells us in John 16, that the Holy Spirit is given to us to continually lead us into ALL truth.  The prophetic word God speaks to us is to help us know His truth and stay in His truth.

Below is a portion of the prophetic word released in our December 8th service.  Listen to the entire prophetic word on our website www.harvest-christian.org

It is a new hunting season; and I fill your quiver with arrows of scripture that will penetrate cold hearts, hardened hearts.  For it is not enough to ask for divine appointments, for when you have them what are you going to say?  I want to fill your mouths with My words.  You are My archers.  And I would remind you what would it profit a man to only love those who love him?  I am calling you to seek out the unlovely, those who have no intention to come to Christ.  It is with your passion and your zeal with the arrow of the revelatory prophetic word, with the heat of the passion and the love of Christ in your hearts -- that  even the coldest hearts shall be melted and receive Christ.  So I say to you this is your hunting season.  You are My archers.  Go out into the countryside for there are many that are awaiting salvation.  This is the time that I have called you to go out.

Your miracle is HERE.  Now faith is.  Your miracle is manifesting.   It is already here.  The day you prayed and made that request I sent the answer says God.  Keep your switch of faith turned on.  In My presence I am releasing a manifestation and demonstration of My presence and My power.  Receive right now.  Your miracle is exploding from within you with a fresh touch of My presence, a fresh outpouring of My fullness.  For this is a time where I am covering the earth with the sound of My presence and the sound of My glory.  This is a time that you will see the manifestation of the full glory of Jesus filling the earth.  It starts from you – from the inside out.  Freely you have received so freely begin to release it with a fresh compassion for those around you.  Begin to see through My eyes and learn what compassion is all about.  Release My fullness – even to your enemies right now.  Begin to see those that have been against you coming into an encounter with Me, says the Lord.  This is a time you will be a carrier of My presence.  And as you go out you will begin to see manifestations without even saying a word.  I will radiate out of your innermost being -- flow with Me says the Lord.  Press in, press in now.  Now is the time of manifestation.

See the multitudes that are crying out I need a breakthrough.  For I have called you to be a people that are kingdom advancers – to reach out to all nations.  That the people might enter in to the family of God, to the kingdom of God.  They need you, they need you – go forth into the nations.  This is a day that the kingdom of heaven is advancing and many shall enter in at this time.

During service Holy Spirit demonstrated through us corporately the above prophetic words.  It was extraordinary and powerful!!  Apostle Bob started to declare and decree over our nation as the Lord filled his mouth with His words.  We were in agreement as a congregation with the Spirit of God.  Others joined with prayers of declaration.  This is a powerful dynamic where corporately we are bringing heaven into earth to bring change.  This is what the Spirit of God is moving us into for 2020, and through us the Spirit of God will impart into the nations of the earth. Part of this is transcribed below.

We pray a spirit of wisdom and revelation into our president, into our congress and our supreme court.  Our nation stands in the valley of decision right now.  It is not looking for man’s approval but it is looking for whose side will we stand on.  We stand in the gap and we choose and say yes to Your kingdom, Your righteousness.  This day we say let there be exposure of deception and lies.  Father let there be a spirit of truth released on this nation to break the spirit of philosophy and intellectualism.  We see the kingdom of God invading our nation, exploding across our nation.  We pray a spirit of revelation of who God is for our political leaders.  We agree with heaven and declare that righteousness will prevail.  Bring forth truth.  We bind confusion.   We break the spirit of deception that has been released on our nation.  We release rightness, peace and truth.  We release the love of the Father over our nation.  No more division.  We break the power of division over our nation.  We release unity in the name of Jesus.

These prophetic words are from October 13, after Cross Immersion.  At Cross Immersion there was a very strong impartation and encounter with God.  These prophesies reflect that.  They are fresh, strong and for NOW.  Read them slowly and out loud – allowing the words to penetrate into your soul and heart. Let these words form new thinking patterns.

Prophetic Words:

This is a season of great penetration for I am penetrating your very core to work out that that needs to be removed to pour in that which is needed to live as a dominion people, to live as a kingdom people that breaks through the enemies ranks.  For I am stripping away the veils.  I am taking away every veil of religiosity.  I am causing you to enter into a greater intimacy, a greater hearing, a greater seeing.  You will walk in dominion and will be gatekeepers.

• God speaks of dominion several times in this word.  Dominion is power, strength and might.  That dominion comes through Jesus Christ in us, the hope of glory.  It is not strength or might in our own flesh but by the Spirit.
• Colossians 1.11 says to be strengthened with all power, according to His glorious might…
• This is a place to stop and meditate on what God is speaking.  What He is imparting.  Conscientiously receive His provision and thank Him for strengthening you.  He is equipping us for the time we are living in.
• When you come up against challenges in your life, remember this word and God’s promise – He will strengthen us by the power of His might.  The battle belongs to the Lord.  Allow courage and strength to fill you by the Spirit of God.  Walking in dominion is also walking in victory.  The enemy has been defeated by the work of the cross.  Allow God to lead you in victory.
• In the following words you will hear God continuing to speak to you about His power in you.

Yes, I am great and mighty in power.  But I call you great.  I am making you My great ones.  Because I live inside of you – I call you great.  I call you mighty in power.  My power lives in you.  So you are My great ones.  You might not see it or feel it right now.  But I see you as great.  You are created in My image – in My likeness.  You are great!!

Open up the doors and reign.  For I am in you My sons and daughters.  I have called you for such a time as this.  I have placed you in this earth so open up your heart to Me.  Open up your heart to Me and reign.  For I have warred for you.  Declare you reign in Me.  Open up your heart and reign for this is My desire for you.  Healing is upon your lips and prosperity is upon your heart.  So open up your door and reign in Me.  Declare with a loud voice that I am your King!  Declare with a loud voice that you are free!  Open up the door and reign with Me.

He is on the inside of you.  And out of your belly will flow rivers of living water as you acknowledge Him.  He not only fills you but out of your belly flows the life of God.  Christ in you the hope of glory.  He is King right now.  Let the peace of God well up inside of you.  Let Holy Spirit take over and be stabilized on the Rock.  The Rock cannot be shaken.  He is a firm foundation.  Let the familiar cycles of religion be broken off.  Let freedom bubble up inside of you.  A freedom to move into this dimension of the Spirit that is opened up to us.  The Spirit of the Lord is moving – let Him come in.  Your identity is a new creation in Christ.  Receive your new identity.  The Father says that He is good and so you are good.  Receive right now.  Let it go deep.  Believe and receive.  God is breaking the chains of bondage right now.  Every stronghold broken.  Allow the alignment of the Spirit of God come in and bring you into alignment.  It is a supernatural work of the Spirit.  Release the sound of freedom.  The sound of glory and the sound of victory.

Prophetic decrees and words released by those attending Cross Immersion.  They are releasing what they received so everyone can join in.

• Declaring and decreeing right now healing of all digestive issues.  No more delay.  All food intolerance removed.  This is our inheritance in Jesus.
• No matter if your digestive issue is big or small – healing is yours to take hold of it.  The blessing is already there so receive it.  Take hold of it.  Healing is released.
• God is perfecting us as sons and daughters to take giants in the land.  To take back what the enemy has stolen.
• The Lord says that you are the seed of Abraham.  It is through you that God will bring His inheritance.  I have put My power in you and I have put My authority in you.  I will have you speak into nations and into families – you will see turn around and you will see breakthrough.  My kingdom will expand through you.
• Thank you Lord for apprehending us and our families like you apprehended Abraham for Your purposes.
• The Lord says, adorn yourself in My wisdom.  I am releasing wisdom to you.  God says that I want to lavish all that I am on you and I am stripping away the veils of separation.  We no longer sit at the table of mediocre.
• God is not a perfectionist but a perfecter of our faith.
• God says you began by the work of My Spirit and you will continue by the work of My Spirit.  Do not move into reasoning or conceptualization.  Stay in the flow of My Spirit where there is great power.
• Remember the promise of God – He will perform it no matter what comes your way.
• You are good through the power of God.

The prophetic word is given to us by God as an encouragement about our future.  Jeremiah 29.11, says God KNOWS the plans He has for us.  They are plans to prosper us, not to harm us; they are plans God has made to give us a hope and future.  In the prophetic word God reveals His plans for us.  He starts to describe and detail what our future will be through the prophetic.  The prophetic word is like looking through binoculars at the future.  What an advantage the prophetic word gives us as we advance.

If we look at our future through the lens of current events it can bring discouragement and disillusionment.  This view says our future depends on the world, rather than on God.  The prophetic word is seed that sows our future, and it is the plow.  In the prophetic word are the dimensions of God that will bring that word into reality.  When that word is spoken and goes into the fertile soil of our heart, it will produce.  That is an amazing dynamic that we need to understand.  We can take that same word and as we speak it that word becomes a plow or a threshing instrument that breaks any resistance to that word becoming reality!

As you review some of the prophetic words spoken to us over the last month, I encourage you to drink deeply of Holy Spirit.  When we drink deep of the Spirit of God it becomes a gushing fountain springing up and flooding us with life.  Wisdom comes.  Creativity, new ideas and strategy comes.  We become energized to advance into our future that God has for us.  It creates a propulsive force within us and around us.  This is a great advantage.  Seize the prophetic word for yourself and your family.  Let the prophetic word be building blocks of your future.  Let the supply of God fill your heart and thoughts.

Prophetic Words:

These are the days of a fresh prophetic wind.  Fresh apostolic establishment.  There are dimensions yet to be revealed.  There are aspects that you are not aware of.  I am driving My stake into the very heart of your soul.  I want your identities to be secure in Me.  This is a season of saturation in preparation for the release of My glory.

And what is this revelation that you have sought after?  What is this inner peace that you seek?  You know My voice and have cried out for clarity.  You have sought after Me.  Declaring, proposing and seeking My word.  You carry My strength as warriors and worshippers.  I have given you abundance of life and joy and peace.  Step into and grab hold of what I have prepared for you.  Release My word as ones who are filled with My presence.  Release My joy as ones who have overcome.  Release My healing as ones who are whole.  Release My peace as ones who are free.  My word is truth.  You are My chosen ones.  You are My mouthpiece.  You are My chosen generation, My royal priesthood.  You are My sons and daughters and I love you.  Know that your voices are interlinked with mine.  Release My word and see.  I have called you into this place.  Be obedient.

God says, I am stirring up My roar.  I am stirring up My roar deep inside of you.  My authority, release My authority through the roar.  I am stirring up My roar deep inside of you.  Release My roar.  Release My roar.  And chains will fall and lives will change.  And people will run into My kingdom life.  They will see Jesus walking down the street and touch Him.  Release My roar.

For My kingdom is a now kingdom.  As I put My sound inside of you, look at those things that are circumstances and situations.  Look at what is being shaken.  I have put My kingdom inside of you to release My sound.  The dimensions of My kingdom are in My sound.  As you go about your daily business you will see – you will see places My kingdom needs to come.  So release My kingdom into those places.  I have put My kingdom in you so that you would release My kingdom into the earth.  The answer is in My kingdom.  My supply is in My kingdom.  Miracles are in My kingdom.  Do not hold back – today is the day to release My kingdom.  My kingdom is a now kingdom.

I have come to fill you with My Light.  This is not a place that I am passing through.  This is a place of My habitation.  I abide in you.  I am here for you.  Feel My presence right here, right now.  I am here.  I am here.  I am all you need.
