Nate Johnston recently prophesied… I was up in intercession last night for two to three hours.

It was…

“Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled.” — Matthew 5:6 (NIV) The name Naphtali carries the idea of wrestling, striving and deep contending.

Lana Vawser recently prophesied… Recently I heard the Lord say, ‘I am bringing many full circle, but it shall not be as it was, it shall be with increase.’ When the Lord spoke those words I could feel the Lord’s heart so strongly, that as He is bringing many into ‘full-circle’ places, it would not…

“Let us then approach God’s throne of grace with confidence…” — Hebrews 4:16 (NIV) The book of Hebrews talks about approaching God’s throne confidently. But confidence in what exactly? Surely we are not talking about loud personalities, brash certainty or spiritual exhibitionism, as though only extroverts can encounter God deeply? No. Biblical confidence is not…

“…that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith.” — Ephesians 3:17 (NIV) What an astonishing thought. God’s ultimate temple was never meant to be merely buildings of stone, gold and architecture. His great desire has always been to dwell within people.

Eliane Tavilacci recently prophesied… Oil and the Holy Spirit “Your anointing has made me strong and mighty. You’ve empowered my life for triumph by pouring fresh oil over me.” (Psalm 92:10 TPT) Throughout the Bible, oil is a metaphor for the Holy Spirit.

“Then the fire of the Lord fell and burned up the sacrifice…” — 1 Kings 18:38 (NIV) By 2010, something deep within me began crying out for fresh fire once again.

Lana Vawser recently prophesied… Recently I heard the Lord say, ‘Grab your stake and claim the space’. When the Lord spoke these words, I could see so many in the body of Christ still in battles over places and spaces the Lord has called them to occupy. I could see so many that were still…

“The wind blows wherever it pleases. You hear its sound, but you cannot tell where it comes from or where it is going. So it is with everyone born of the Spirit.” — John 3:8 (NIV) Religiosity is what happens when yesterday’s move of God becomes today’s rigid formula. It takes living encounters and slowly…

“The righteous are as bold as a lion.” — Proverbs 28:1 (NIV) Fear is the sworn enemy of the river of true worship because worship was always meant to involve surrender. And surrender always requires vulnerability. In 2 Timothy 1:6–7 the apostle Paul writes to Timothy: “Fan into flame the gift of God, which is…

Nate Johnston recently prophesied… This word is very specific, but I believe it is for many people right now. In this transition, the Holy Spirit has us deeply focused on healing. After the road we’ve walked, which is one we’ve barely survived, people are in desperate need of it. It has been a season of…

“Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervour, serving the Lord.” — Romans 12:11 (NIV) Have you ever come across the old medieval word accidie? Neither had I until recently.

“He must become greater; I must become less.” — John 3:30 (NIV) True worship ministry has never been about gathering attention around ourselves. It is about disappearing. John the Baptist understood this perfectly: “He must become greater; I must become less.” — John 3:30 (NIV) That is the cry of every genuine worship leader. Not:…

Let me be brutally honest, I have actually done “attractional church” as a model for years. You know what I mean by that? We make it appealing, fun, not too offensive, with good music, good coffee and meetings that don’t lean into the prophetic or the supernatural too much. We use marketing strategies and social…
