DAYS of CONFRONTATION

In the prophetic words below God confirms that these are days of confrontation.  Even days of intense confrontation!  But the Lord says that He is with us and in us.  DO NOT FEAR!  No weapon formed against us will prosper.  But when the accuser comes to call you names and intimidate you scripture says that you can refute that accusation.  It is our heritage to say "NO" to the devil's accusations.

We are the redeemed and we say so!  We are covered by the blood of Jesus and made righteous by His blood.  There is no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus!

These are not days to cower and hide because they are days of confrontation.  Absolutely NOT!  No, God is saying I have put My word in your heart and in your mouth.  Speak up!  Declare what is right according to God's word.  Pull God's kingdom into the earth.  We do this by the authority we have in the name of Jesus.  Sin does not have a hold on us – we have been crucified with Christ and no longer live by the leading of the flesh but by the leading of Holy Spirit!  These are the days of His power!  Greater is He that is in us than He that is in the world!  That is saying live through the Spirit of God that in you; be Spirit led.  Seek first His kingdom and His righteousness and all else will follow.

Peter tells us that we have been given EVERYTHING we need for life and godliness – it has been deposited in us by His divine power!  We have been given magnificent promises so that through them we might be partakers of His divine nature, escaping the corruption in the world.  We have been made a royal priesthood and a holy nation belonging to God!  We are not captive to the world systems.  But we are to bring God’s kingdom into the world to bring blessing to all.

Psalm 24 continues to be a strong word from our Father in heaven.  He is saying to open the gates and let the King of Glory come in.  Who is this King of Glory?  The Lord mighty in battle!

Proverbs 19.25 says, "…if you correct a wise man, he will grow even wiser."  This is also a time Holy Spirit is correcting our ways of thinking and how we respond.  Receive that correction and become wiser and more discerning than ever before.  Do not let the narratives of media determine your mindset but bring every thought captive and allow your mind to be renewed by Holy Spirit leading you into truth.

I share this exhortation of scripture above to give context to the times we are living in and to these prophetic words below.

Prophetic Words given at Harvest:

For this is a season of intense confrontation – but know that I have given you Holy Spirit in order that you might be a voice to this generation.  You are well fitted at this time.  Not only have I given you a voice, but I have given you an anointing that breaks every yoke.  For there is no longer a middle ground.  As in the days of Elijah when he called and said if God is God then serve Him.  If the Baals are god then serve them. 

You want the release of the supernatural – the supernatural will be released in the midst of confrontation.  This is a day to be strong and confident.  Be courageous and bold.  Let your voice be loosed to declare My glory and My government.  These are the days of His power!  These are the days of His power!!

My sons and daughters, this is the hour!  It is a time of confrontation.  I am confronting everything that has infiltrated My church that is not of Me.  I am confronting everything that you have allowed to come into your midst that is not of Me.  For I am coming back for a church without spot or wrinkle.  As I begin to raise up a new generation of people of confrontation – you who know their God will be strong and do exploits.  And with the confrontation will come uncomfortableness, but boldness and courage will be upon you My sons and daughters.  A fresh level of boldness and courage as you allow My work in you.  Receive boldness and courage right now!  It is a time to be very bold and courageous.  Step out in a fresh and new way.

For there is an intensity that has arisen in you.  It is an unction of My Spirit.  For My Spirit is unto your spirit.  For My glory has arisen this day – so arise and shine and give God the glory for My destiny will be fulfilled in you.  For My glory shines and leads the way – no darkness or shadows, no resistance shall stand.  For I am the Lord your God in the midst of you.  I am mighty.  Know that this unction is Mine and not of this world.  For there is no surety, for I am the surety.  I am the Light.  I am the Standard.  I am the One who stands within the standard.  For you are chosen this day, so arise and shine for My glory has risen upon you. 

Apostle Ellis Smith prophesied over all of the people at Harvest:  You release apostolic grace in this region.  You are a people who are unique in every sense of the word.  Understand the stature God has given you for this hour to carry out the kingdom mandate.  Get back up on top – something has brought you down.  It has you thinking like people in the world.  The kingdom of heaven is at hand.  It is in you.  It speaks to the context of our lives.  The flood of the Spirit will force you to higher ground.  Get ready for the flood!  For out of your belly will flow rivers of living waters.  Get ready for the flood!  The flood of glory.  The flood of power.  The flood of anointing.  The flood of deliverance.  The flood of reconciliation.  The flood of redemption.  Let the waters flow – let the waters flow!  Like a mighty river.

The Lord wants ALL of our heart

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.  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).
  
• This year focus your eyes on Jesus, for this year we are going to get rid of all the things that encumber us.

Above are some excerpts from our December 29 Sunday service that released prophetic perspective for 2020.  Here we are in July.  The prophetic word released on December 29 was accurate.

Lana Vawser prophesied on May 19, "One of the greatest prayers that you can pray right now is 'Lord tenderize my heart.'  The Lord showed me that in this season the body of Christ will either sit in two positions.  The position of embracing the move of the Lord to bring tenderizing in deeper ways to the hearts of His people, or they will stand in the place of stubbornness before the Lord. I heard the Lord say, 'I am going to shock My people into alignment.'"

Tender hearted means:

• Soft toward God
• Pliable in God's hands
• Responsive to Holy Spirit
• Desiring righteousness
• Rightly aligned to the fear of the Lord
• Able to receive
• Able to give
• Able to hear rightly
• Gentle
• Kind
• Able to love
• Able to hope
• Able to be filled with the fullness of God

John 14.1, Jesus tells His disciples and He is telling you and me right now: "Do not let your hearts be troubled; believe in God, believe also in Me."

From Lana Vawser:

I heard the Lord say "I am DEFINING and REDEFINING the season"

The Lord has been speaking for years about Isaiah 43:19 “Behold, I am doing a new thing; now it springs forth, do you not perceive it?  I will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert.”  We are in this place now where God is doing a new thing, we are in a new era.

In the defining and redefining by the Spirit of God taking place right now, it requires a yielding, the yielding of the flesh, the yielding of mindsets, opinions, agendas, but I saw in this defining and redefining taking place there is such a weightiness of His presence, there is such life that will be found in allowing HIM to shape the season.

Don’t fight against the season by attempting to cling to what was, or what is comfortable because of fear or insecurity.  Take the hand of the Lord and trust Him, for those that yield, embrace and obey, there is a glorious new day rising.  The fruitfulness and anointing on this time of defining and redefining when embraced by His yielded people, will truly be like no other we have experienced.

Things are changing and things are changing rapidly and the Lord is calling His people near, close, into that place of humility and surrender to hear what the Spirit is saying in the DEFINING and REDEFINING.

He is shifting things and changing things in a way that is so significant, so deep, and so unexpected in some ways, but those who hear, those who obey, those who embrace the defining and redefining are going to see a move of God that is unprecedented.

The new wineskins are upon us and the new wine is glorious.  It requires the embracing of the unexpected, walking in deep union and obedience to His specifications and watch His glory manifest.

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.
