Hey, family!

This is the day that the Lord has made, and we choose to rejoice and be glad in it. There is so much to be thankful for as we realize how the Lord has positioned us to move into the possession of all He has promised—both individually and as a corporate people.

Regardless of how things may feel or appear, we are not where we were. You are not where you were. Over the past several years, the Lord has taken us through a process—a process of transformation, becoming progressively more like Jesus. That is the ultimate goal of the outworking of the Holy Spirit in the life of a believer: to conform us to the image of the Son.

This process takes many forms in our lives, and we must learn to appreciate it. We must take inventory of what God is doing, ensuring we don’t leave behind what He intended to impart or carry things into our future that He meant to remove. The Lord has been changing our vantage point—elevating our standing—so that our reliance is not on our abilities, eloquence, knowledge, or even spiritual gifts, but on Him.

Abraham’s Journey: A Picture of Trust

In Genesis 22, Abraham journeyed up the mountain, carrying with him the experience of trying to expedite God's process through human means. But as he ascended, he declared in faith that "the Lord will provide." At the summit, he encountered the God he spoke of—Yahweh Jireh, the Lord our Provider. The literal translation states, "In the mountain of the Lord, it will be seen."

This is significant. When the Lord called John up in Revelation 4, He said, "Come up here, and I will show you what must take place." But when John turned, he didn’t see unfolding events—he saw One seated on the throne.

Likewise, we are being called up to a higher vantage point to behold the One on the throne. In this, we recognize that every need is already met, just as Abraham discovered on the mountain. Revelation 5 echoes this truth—John was told, "Do not weep! The Lion of the tribe of Judah has prevailed." But when he turned, he saw not a lion, but a Lamb.

This is a season of single vision, where our eyes and expectation are fixed on the Lord alone.

A Shift in Standing

The past four years have felt like a standstill—or even like moving in reverse. But in reality, the Lord has been repositioning us. He has been calling us to a place where we no longer function from a low, human vantage point, but from His.

Psalm 24:3 asks, "Who may ascend the hill of the Lord? Who may stand in His holy place?" The answer: "He who has clean hands and a pure heart, who has not lifted his soul to an idol nor sworn deceitfully."

God has been removing anything that competes with our dependence on Him. Are we holding on to our own wisdom, abilities, and plans, or are we surrendering to Him completely? This shift in standing is why I can confidently say: we are being elevated for a purpose.

Clarity is Coming

What was once unclear will now be seen. The steps forward are being revealed. We are awakening to the immensity of God’s promises, and our comprehension of His words is being enlightened by the Holy Spirit.

We have thought too small, dreamed too small, and believed too small because we were viewing things from a lower perspective. But God is calling us higher, where provision will be seen, and the Provider will be known.

Get Ready to Move

This will be a season of tremendous ground-taking.

Last Friday, the Holy Spirit spoke to me in Georgia, saying that this year would be a year of grace—a year where we will make up in one year what seemed lost over the past four years. Receive that truth today. The wind that once resisted you is now at your back. This is a year of momentum.

The Lord also spoke to me about this year being a Year of the Harvest Wars. As Israel prepared to enter the Promised Land in Joshua 3, they were instructed to consecrate themselves because "tomorrow the Lord will do wonders among you." They were commanded to follow the Ark of the Covenant because they had not passed that way before.

Likewise, we must keep our eyes on His presence. The Ark represented God's dwelling place, carried upon the shoulders of His priests. As we move forward, we must fix our focus on Him, because the path ahead is one we have not yet traveled.

The Jordan Rolled Back to Adam

When the priests stepped into the Jordan, the waters rolled back to a place called Adam. This is powerful—it signifies a removal of reproach, a washing away of residue from Egypt. If you've carried shame, labels, or a sense of being marked by your past, know this: it is being removed in this season.

And take note: Israel crossed over at the time of harvest. This speaks directly to the Harvest Wars we are entering. Yes, there will be challenges, but nothing standing before you can remain when you are in alignment with the Lord’s purposes.

Boldness and Expectation

This is the season of fulfillment. Proverbs 13:12 says, "Hope deferred makes the heart sick." But I tell you today: there will be no more delay. What you have waited for is coming into fruition. Do not entertain fear, doubt, or the narrative of past disappointments. Those are lies of the enemy meant to steal your momentum.

Ephesians 1:13-14 reminds us that we have been sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise, the earnest of our inheritance. If God did not withhold His own Son, will He not fulfill every promise He has spoken? Out of our innermost being will flow rivers of living water (John 7:38-39).

We Are Moving from Cisterns to Rivers

Psalm 36:8 declares, "You give them drink from the river of Your pleasures"—the word "pleasures" being Eden. From Genesis to Ezekiel to Revelation, we see the same truth: God’s river flows from His presence.

This is the year we shift from containment to flow. The things cultivated in you during this season are about to be released. The gifts and grace upon your life will impact the world beyond the four walls of the church.

Matthew 28:19 commands us to go into all the world. This year, that is exactly what we will do. God has placed within this house the ability to see His Kingdom come into every sphere of culture. Get ready!

It’s Time to Move

Mighty warriors, take your place. Take up the dream of God. Take up the mantle He has called you to in this season. It’s time to arise and build.

I love you all, and I am so grateful to be on this journey with you. The Lord has blessed us and will keep us. The Lord has made His face shine upon us and will be gracious to us. The Lord has lifted up His countenance upon us and given us peace.

In the name of the Sar Shalom, Yeshua HaMashiach, Jesus Christ, the Anointed One, we pray.

Let the redeemed of the Lord say so!

Please pray for me while I am in Canada. I love you all and cannot wait to see you soon!

God bless.
