Let’s Prepare
Where is your heart divided, my child? Where is your vision impaired from the fullness I long to lavish on you? Where has despair and hopelessness crept into your life patterns? Where do you long for my movement but fail to see I have moved and am moving?
These have been days of movement. Of hearts and minds being set free but there are some places in your life where you still hold yourself captive to the things of the past. Living in the past does not allow you to move into the future. Hands that are full of things that I’ve asked you to let go of are not able to carry the new things I have for you. I am asking you to let go and step into the fullness of freedom I have for you.
This is a pinnacle point of preparation for what is to come. Please do not dismiss this or believe this is not for you. Listen, look, and lean into the process over the coming weeks. I am asking you to take seriously this time to declutter as an act of obedience and readiness for the next season.
Activation: For the next little while spend time asking Holy Spirit where there are any outstanding areas of action, agreement, healing or deliverance that need to be attended to. Seek his wisdom on these things.
Mark 2:22 (ESV)
And no one puts new wine into old wineskins. If he does, the wine will burst the skins—and the wine is destroyed, and so are the skins. But new wine is for fresh wineskins.
Matthew 16:24-28 (ESV)
Then Jesus told his disciples, “If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me. For whoever would save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will find it. For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world and forfeits his soul? Or what shall a man give in return for his soul? For the Son of Man is going to come with his angels in the glory of his Father, and then he will repay each person according to what he has done. Truly, I say to you, there are some standing here who will not taste death until they see the Son of Man coming in his kingdom.”
