We had a small but very special family dinner at our home this past week. Fortunately our parents and in laws are close friends and celebrate holidays and special occasions together. On this particular evening we had the opportunity to honor my dad on his birthday. We served a special meal including all of his favorite delicacies in our formal dining room on our fine china. We enjoyed our meal using his grandmother’s (my great grandmother’s) silverware and on a lovely 1950’s Asian style dining room table passed down to us by my husband’s grandparents. Our dining room walls are adorned with silk framed pictures purchased by my grandfather as a gift to my grandmother after the Korean War and an oil painting I created while taking art classes with my other grandfather at his home depicting a unique flower found in his back yard. The interior of my home is very eclectic as it holds and displays many treasured pieces from both sides of our families going back generations.
We were surrounded that night by our dearest loved ones, those most precious to us, and served them with all beautiful things passed down to us by their ancestors. The atmosphere carried a feeling of honor toward loved ones and generations past. The next day as I was putting away my serving pieces I was struck with such a sense of gratitude to God for this beautiful memory we created and the wonderful things He’s given us to enjoy and to share with others. The commandments of God tell us “Honor thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee.”—Exodus 20:12, King James Version. We were given the opportunity to honor our parents as well as past generations all in one evening. As I realized this, thankfulness washed over me and this verse of scripture came into my spirit.
“When the Lord brought back his exiles to Jerusalem, it was like a dream! We were filled with laughter, and we sang for joy. And the other nations said, “What amazing things the Lord has done for them.””
Psalms 126:1-2 NLT
“It was like a dream” this was the verse that came into my spirit over and over. This is a prophetic verse for God’s people right now. Many will suddenly shift into places of destiny God has prepared for them to occupy and exist in since the beginning of time. Calls and positions so uniquely tailored to your gifts and interests that being called up to them will cause a refreshing wind of God to blow on your lives in such a way that your physical bodies and even your perception of the world around you will bare witness to the newness of the season you are now walking in. Remember this is not something we strive into, it is something we accept today by faith. Close your eyes and see yourself enter this delightful place of purpose! Promotion comes from the Lord.
This verse explains that other nations will see the move of God and marvel at His goodness. I believe the United States of America will be vindicated and the other nations watching will know it was the hand of God.
Can you imagine how you would praise God if you woke up tomorrow and everything the enemy has done to hurt America has been reversed and our country set back on a Kingdom course?
Why don’t we take a moment imagine that happening and praise God like He’s already done it! Praise Him for the limitless impossibilities contained within His right hand!
“But the Lord says, “The captives of warriors will be released, and the plunder of tyrants will be retrieved. For I will fight those who fight you, and I will save your children.”
Isaiah 49:25 NLT
I woke up the next day hearing this verse “I will fight those who fight you”. This will be your verse to stand on as you enter and begin to stand in the next place of destiny for your lives.
We are about to pray together. As you pray this prayer imagine pulling a giant sharp sword out of its sheath and as you speak the words. Imagine a legion of angels soaring above you going out to fulfill every word of God for your life. Use your imagination to see it happening so that you can please God with your faith!
“The one who breaks open will come up before them; They will break out, Pass through the gate, And go out by it; Their king will pass before them, With the Lord at their head.””
Micah 2:13 NKJV
Pray: I thank you for a time of the fulfillment of the dreams you’ve given us. I command the enemy to release every captive area of our lives and restore all plunder he has taken from us. I command the double return of “what might’ve been” and “what should’ve been” in our lives. I see by faith the Breaker anointing breaking the gates and allowing us to pass through. Now that we’ve passed through the gate I send out my angel army to open this door of destiny and firmly establish me on the other side in Jesus’ mighty name.
There is a phrase we’ve heard over and over for the last year and a half “we are living in unprecedented times” up to this point that phrase carried a negative even fearful connotation but now we will say “we are living in times of unprecedented glory”!
Decree: Lord God today I decree for myself, my family and my church that we are living in unprecedented times of glory, presence and favor!
This is beautiful and timely. In prayer for a group going into DC next month for intercession the phrase “dream team” came to mind. Dreaming with GOD today 🦋
Thank you. I loved walking through the gate into new territory. The Lord had me write down the part, “I will fight those who fight you.”
Hallelujah! Thank you Jesus, our Lord, thank you.
