Let them! When they fall, I will catch you!&rdquo;&nbsp;</span></em></span><br><br><span><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">In the Spirit, I saw a vision of a winding line of dominoes that were about to fall, one triggering another until they all came down. I knew that a specific sequence of events had already been set in motion. <em>It was unstoppable; the only response was to let the dominoes fall!</em><br><br>At the same time, I understood that God had been preparing His Body for these very events and would "catch" us spiritually during that time of turmoil. He assured me that He was ready to strengthen and support those whose faith rested in Him alone.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</span></span><br><br><span><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">I sensed that the Lord was releasing yet another gentle warning to His children, that the structures and systems we&rsquo;ve relied on for years are at their tipping point. The shakings we see happening politically, culturally, and economically are not accidental; in many cases, the Lord&rsquo;s hand is behind them.<br><br>The key in this hour is to let God have his way, toppling what needs to fall, and trusting that as we set our faith firmly on Him, we will not be shaken.</span></span><br><br><br><strong><span><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">WISDOM: YOUR SECURE PATH</span></span></strong><br><br><span><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">The Lord reminded me of an earlier encounter I had, where I'd seen a perfectly aligned, heavenly pathway of "stepping stones" in the clouds one clear day.

I want to share two illustrations of how healing comes through prophetic ministry.</font></span></span></div><div><!--BLOG_SUMMARY_END--></div><div class="paragraph"><br><font size="4"><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">PROPHECY RESTORES THE BODY</span></font><br><br><span><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)"><font size="2">I spoke with a woman recently who had once operated in a python spirit, &ldquo;prophesying&rdquo; for many years from a demonic source. Her accurate details of people&rsquo;s lives amazed them. Her story resembled that of the girl with divination in Acts 16. The only difference was that this woman believed she was a Christian at the time.&nbsp;</font></span></span><br><br><span><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)"><font size="2">The woman had been set free from that evil spirit in a local charismatic church. She freely testified to God&rsquo;s delivering power and committed herself fully to Christ. However, her concern about the level of deception possible even for a believer caused her to move away from gift-based ministries into more evangelical streams.</font></span></span><br><br><span><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)"><font size="2">When I met with this woman one day, she could barely speak because of a sudden impediment to her tongue. Her tongue was swollen and very painful. Friends had told her she might need to have surgery for what appeared to be a tongue tie, and she asked me to pray for her.</font></span></span><br><br><span><font size="2"><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">At the time, I knew nothing of her skepticism concerning the prophetic gifts. I prayed in tongues for just a moment before I heard the Lord say,</span> <span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight:700"><em>&ldquo;Tell her that she will not need surgery; I will give her a simple solution.&rdquo;</em></span> <span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">I urged the woman not to schedule the surgery, believing that within a few days, the Lord would show her what to do.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</span></font></span><br><br><span><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)"><font size="2">Just one week later, she contacted me, very excited to share what God had done. Not only had God healed her tongue through a simple solution, as prophesied, but He&rsquo;d also done a work in her heart.&nbsp;</font></span></span><br><br><span><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)"><font size="2">The woman confessed that when I began to pray in tongues the week before, she was extremely skeptical. She worried that she might be deceived by false prophecy again. Yet something in her spirit knew that both the tongues and my prophetic word felt different; they brought hope and peace, not fear.&nbsp;&nbsp;</font></span></span><br><br><span><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)"><font size="2">The next day, a friend of hers stopped by, heard about the situation and the prophecy, and suggested a simple solution no one had considered before. By making a nutritional change, she was able to reduce the swelling, and the pain disappeared.&nbsp;</font></span></span><br><br><span><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)"><font size="2">Ironically, God used the supernatural power of tongues and the prophetic to heal this woman&rsquo;s tongue! Even more importantly, God restored her faith in the validity of prophetic revelation for today.&nbsp;&nbsp;</font></span></span><br><br><br><span><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)"><font size="4">PROPHECY BRINGS INNER HEALING&nbsp;</font></span></span><br><br><span><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)"><font size="2">Around the same time, I spoke with another woman who was bound by a lifetime of complex trauma.

Peace returned, and her mind was set free.</font></span></span><br><br><span><font size="2"><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">My prayer time with this woman concluded with an interesting vision of the Lord handing her a key, saying,</span> <em><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight:700">&ldquo;</span><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight:700">This is the Jesus key.</span><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight:700">&rdquo;</span></em> <span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">Through prophetic insight, Jesus gave her a key to inner healing that she had searched for but could find nowhere else except in Him.&nbsp;</span></font></span><br><br><span><font size="2"><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">The testimony of Jesus IS the Spirit of Prophecy!</span> <span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)"></span><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">Inviting Christ to speak prophetically releases the fresh insight and revelation we need to heal both body and soul.

(NASB)&nbsp;</span></em></strong></font></span><br><br><span><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)"><font size="2">Immediately, I was given a vision of a deep well. The well was ancient, its black stones stacked row upon row around. It contained no water.&nbsp;&nbsp;</font></span></span><br><br><span><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)"><font size="2">Through no fault of his own, a prodigal had fallen into the well and was trying to climb out, like a modern-day Joseph. I did not see how the fall happened. I only knew that the prodigal had reached the point where they knew it was a matter of life or death. I also saw the Father standing at the foundation of the well.</font></span></span><br><br><span><font size="2"><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">At the sound of the prodigal&rsquo;s cry, I heard the Father&rsquo;s voice say,</span> <em><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight:700">&ldquo;Stop trying to climb and come down here!&rdquo;&nbsp;</span></em></font></span><br><br><span><font size="2"><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">Contrary to what the prodigal expected, the way</span> <span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">out</span> <span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">was the way</span> <span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">down!</span> <span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">The Father was standing at the base of the well, waiting for the prodigal to &ldquo;hit bottom.&rdquo; Until that point, there was little hope of rescue.&nbsp;</span></font></span><br><br><span><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)"><font size="2">The prodigal returned to the bottom of the well, abandoning the futile climb, and yielded to the Father&rsquo;s plea. Immediately, the Father took him into His arms.&nbsp;</font></span></span><br><br><span><font size="2"><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">It was a beautiful picture of reunion - yet as I watched in this vision, my natural mind wondered how this would unfold;</span> <span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">now there were two of them 'stuck' in the well!</span></font></span><br><br><span><font size="2"><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">As if in answer to my thought, a rope was thrown down into the well from the top. Still holding onto the prodigal, the Father took hold of the rope, and both were raised to the top. Again, I heard the Spirit say (with an emphasis on the last word),</span> <em><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight:700">&ldquo;When Father and mother forsake me, the Lord will take me</span> <span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight:700">UP</span><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight:700">.&rdquo;&nbsp;</span></em></font></span><br><br><span><font size="2"><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">The single Hebrew word for</span> <em><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">&ldquo;take me up&rdquo;</span></em> <span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">in Psalm 27 speaks of</span> <em><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">gathering up, collecting,</span> <span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">or</span> <span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">removing</span></em><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">.&nbsp;</span></font></span><br><br><span><font size="2"><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">I felt the Lord was highlighting not only the idea of gathering the fatherless and prodigals into His arms, rescuing them (as He did in the vision), but also the picture of</span> <span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">ascension</span><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">: the restoration of the spirit to Christ, in whom is all life, drink, and sustenance. For standing at the top of that well and holding the end of the rope was Jesus!&nbsp;</span></font></span><br><br><em><strong><span><font size="2"><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">(For a related vision, see</span> <a href="https://www.hisinscriptions.com/his-inscriptions-blog-deborah-perkins/america-special-ops-angels-are-being-released-on-a-divine-rescue-mission"><span style="color:rgb(17, 85, 204)">America: Special Ops Angels are Being Released on a Divine Rescue Mission</span></a><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">, a series of visions posted on 1.14.22)&nbsp;&nbsp;</span></font></span></strong></em><br><br><span><font size="2"><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">As I considered these things, the vision continued. I now saw three people standing together by the top of the well - Father, Son, and Prodigal. It was clear that the Son had &ldquo;raised&rdquo; the prodigal back to life, yet I felt compelled to ask,</span> <em><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">&ldquo;What about the water?&rdquo; Why isn&rsquo;t there water in the well?&rdquo;&nbsp;</span></em></font></span><br><br><span><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)"><font size="2">Spiritually, I was used to picturing believers as wells, with eternal life springing up out of them (John 4). I realized, however, that the well in the vision was not that kind of well. This was a well of sin, slavery, deception, and captivity.</font></span></span><br><br><span><font size="2"><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">Looking more closely at Jesus, I saw that His entire body was not made of flesh, but of LIQUID.</span> <span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">He was the water the prodigal needed!</span> <span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">The Father&rsquo;s strong arms had caught the prodigal at his lowest point, yet it was a connection to the life of the Lord that would ultimately sustain that prodigal, keeping him out of the well.&nbsp;&nbsp;</span></font></span><br><br><span><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)"><font size="2">The three left the well and began walking together across a sunlit desert land. The ground seemed as hard and dry as the stones in the well, but at last, there was light and freedom. The prodigal, of course, was never meant to be alone. He was meant to walk with both Father and Son on his journey.</font></span></span><br><br><span><font size="2"><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">Engaging in the Spirit again as I watched in the vision, I asked,</span> <em><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">&ldquo;Where are they going?&rdquo;</span></em></font></span><br><span><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)"><font size="2">&nbsp;</font></span></span><br><span><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)"><font size="2">In response, I heard the sound of another prodigal's cry to their left. My view was expanded, and in front of the three who walked, all around that dry terrain, were more wells.&nbsp;</font></span></span><br><br><span><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)"><font size="2">Somehow, I knew that in each well, another prodigal was trapped down below. Yet I noticed that the Father, Son, and rescued prodigal did not stop at every well to help. They turned only to the wells where a cry could be heard coming up.&nbsp;</font></span></span><br><br><span><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight:700"><font size="2">This was not for lack of compassion, I knew, but for want of desperation.&nbsp;</font></span></span><br><br><span><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)"><font size="2">Both Father and Son knew the location of every prodigal in that land. Yet those prodigals had to reach the point where they were desperate enough to cry for help instead of attempting their own rescues. It was the sound of the cries that activated compassion, initiating each rescue.&nbsp;</font></span></span><br><br><span><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)"><font size="2">As the vision closed, I was reminded that there are wells of sin and deception just as there are wells of truth and living water.&nbsp;</font></span></span><br><br><span><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)"><font size="2">Wells of sin can be literal or spiritual places that trap prodigals, holding them captive and keeping them from moving forward into their callings.&nbsp;</font></span></span><br><span><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)"><font size="2">&#8203;</font></span></span><br><span><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)"><font size="2">Wells of living water are spiritual and mobile, residing within the spirits of rescued believers who walk together in partnership with Father and Son.&nbsp;</font></span></span><br><br><span><font size="2"><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">I believe the Lord showed me this vision to encourage parents, friends, and intercessors that He is still ACTIVELY rescuing prodigals from their wells of sin and despair as they cry out to Him.</span> <span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">Do not give up praying for these redeemed-but-lost ones!

He continued,&nbsp;<strong><em>&ldquo;I AM TAKING OVER THE AIR - WAVES!&rdquo;&nbsp;</em></strong></span><br><br><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">I understood the Lord was referring back to the&nbsp;<strong>WAVE OFFERINGS</strong>&nbsp;of the Old Testament priests in Leviticus. The prince of the power of the air was going to be displaced and defeated by the wave offerings of God&rsquo;s people in this hour as they released God&lsquo;s glory through their testimonies.&nbsp;<em>Mass deception from the Father of Lies will be replaced by an outpouring of truth, and the truth will reap its harvest.&nbsp;&nbsp;</em></span><br><br><br><font size="4" style="color:rgb(42, 42, 42)"><strong><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">GLORY "WAVE OFFERINGS"</span></strong></font><br><br><span style="color:rgb(51, 58, 66)">Biblically, wave offerings were unique in that they were given to God but not burned up. <em>(Lev.23; Numbers 8 describes the Levites themselves as lifted up to God as "wave offerings.")&nbsp;</em><br><br>Whether it was the firstfruits of a barley harvest, meat, or money, the Levites would hold this offering in their hands and wave it in the air to the Lord, unlike the burnt offerings consumed on the altar. They would then partake of this offering since it was a shared gift between the Lord and the community. It could even be the priests&rsquo; food.&nbsp;</span><br><br><span style="color:rgb(51, 58, 66)"><em>What does this mean for us?</em><br><br>Symbolically, hands speak of giftings. Not all gifts or sacrifices are things that we have to give up entirely, or that are burned up on the altar. Some are offered to God, then returned to us for God&rsquo;s purposes.&nbsp;<br><br>&#8203;<br><strong><font size="4">ONLY A SHADOW</font></strong></span><br><br><span style="color:rgb(51, 58, 66); font-weight:700">In a vision, I saw believers who had been brought to the place of total death to self, who thought this dark place was the end of their ministries. Yet here I heard the Spirit speaking of new things, saying this was only a&nbsp;<em>shadow</em>&nbsp;of death they were passing through.<br><br>These believers emerged from the shadows of death and fear, testifying that they had, in fact, been hidden in the<em>&nbsp;SHADOW OF THE MOST HIGH!</em>&nbsp;The shadow of God's hand had brought freedom to them, birthing resurrection life.&nbsp;</span><br><br><span style="color:rgb(51, 58, 66)">I saw that these called-out ones also carried special talents. Whether that talent was teaching or speaking, a musical gift, a prophetic voice, or a creative expression, they offered that talent to God as their &ldquo;wave offering.&rdquo;<br><br>&#8203;As they humbled themselves before the Lord, they were willing to die to any self-promotion or fleshly use of that gift, which was good. Yet there were many to whom God was giving their talent back, asking them to use it in a new way, for His purposes alone.<br><br><strong><em>Friends, I believe God's desire is to AMPLIFY what has been hidden in this hour.

He is looking for those whose hearts are committed to Him in deeper ways than before; who are not willing to settle with what they know of Him already.&nbsp;</span><br><br><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight:700">The revealed Word of God is an open gateway into the Father&rsquo;s heart. Those who accept His invitation to go deeper will receive the greater faith and strength needed to combat&nbsp; increasing storms. Yet it is more than that: the Father desires to use even incredible opposition to ignite FIRES OF REVIVAL.</span><br><br><em><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight:700">There are TIMELY, INSPIRED words God is releasing right now that are meant to STRENGTHEN you.

Those who devote time to studying His Word will find overcoming FIRES OF REVIVAL breaking out in them that cannot be quenched!&nbsp;&nbsp;</span></font><br><br><br><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight:700"><font size="4">JUDGMENT AND REVIVAL</font></span><br><br><font size="2"><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight:700">As I meditated on this vision, the Father reminded me of a word He&rsquo;d spoken about revival two years ago. In this prior word, He said:&nbsp;</span><br><br><em><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight:700">&ldquo;Power will be poured out, &lsquo;religious&rsquo; captives set free, and the mercenaries who have exploited My people will fall.</span> <span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight:700">Judgment and revival will happen simultaneously</span><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight:700">. At times, there will seem to be such &ldquo;chaos&rdquo; that it feels confusing to you.&nbsp;</span><br><br><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight:700">&ldquo;Remember that I am Lord over all, and this - in My sovereignty - is</span> <span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight:700">organized</span> <span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight:700">chaos. Let the chips fall where they may.

To partner with darkness or unbelief is to miss out on the beauty and majesty of what God is about to do!&nbsp;</span><br><br><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight:700">To counter these shakings, the Father is underscoring the importance of FAITH, which comes from the Word and sets the heart on a better course:&nbsp;</span><br><br><em><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight:700">&ldquo;I pray that out of His glorious riches He may strengthen you with POWER through His Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts THROUGH FAITH.&rdquo; (Ephesians 3:16-17, NIV)</span></em><br><br><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight:700">I also heard the Lord saying to be careful: MANY VOICES are vying for attention and MANY CLAIMS are being laid upon the heart.&nbsp;</span><br><br><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight:700">Only ONE claim is valid, and that is the Father&rsquo;s claim. Do not allow the enemy to darken your understanding or separate you from the life of God!&nbsp;</span><br><br><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight:700">Paul&rsquo;s words to the Ephesians reinforce this idea:&nbsp;</span><br><br><em><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight:700">&ldquo;So I tell you this, and insist on it in the Lord, that you must no longer live as the Gentiles do, in the futility of their thinking.

Seeking guidance through the Spirit and the Word will bring light and clarity when the enemy sows chaos and confusion</span> <span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight:700">(Psalm 119:130).</span><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight:700">&nbsp;&nbsp;</span></font><br><br><br><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight:700"><font size="4">DIVINE LOCKDOWNS&nbsp;</font></span><br><br><font size="2"><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight:700">There is a window of time between now and Passover that is key for those desiring to partner with the Holy Spirit.&nbsp;&nbsp;<br><br>For some who choose to seek God deeply and intentionally during this time, I see the Father LOCKING THE DOORS in places where you will meet with Him, shutting out all other voices and distractions so that your gaze can be entirely on Him and His Word.<br><br>For others, it is a time to be hidden away for a while, to allow divine cleansing and purging to take place.</span><br><br><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight:700">As I watched this &ldquo;divine lockdown&rdquo; in the Spirit, I heard the Father say,</span> <em><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight:700">&ldquo;What you hear is precious; many desire to hear Me but do not.&rdquo;</span></em><br><br><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight:700">I saw that the things Father shares privately in these lockdowns will be messages carried publicly in times to come; messages that have immense value to Him and to the Kingdom.

In response, I moved down a few steps to the right to take shelter under a large rocky&nbsp; outcropping.

When they returned home, I gave them a "prophetic promise":</span> <em><span style="color:rgb(19, 79, 92); font-weight:700">There is a treasure hidden away for you. Do you notice anything new in the house?&nbsp;</span></em></font></span><br><br><span><font size="2"><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">The promise captured our children's interest immediately but their searches were short-lived. They noticed the table right away but didn't think much of it; they did not fully inspect it to see what was inside the drawer. It amazed me that the tiny &ldquo;inheritance&rdquo; I had promised them could be so close, hidden in plain sight!</span> <span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">Yet they did not seek long enough to find.&nbsp;</span></font></span><br><br><span><font size="2"><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">A few more days passed and as any eager parent would, I longed for them to find the treasure I&rsquo;d hidden in the drawer.</span> <em><span style="color:rgb(19, 79, 92); font-weight:700">My joy did not want to be contained! What could I do to encourage them to seek further?</span><span style="color:rgb(19, 79, 92); font-weight:700">&nbsp;</span></em></font></span><br><br><span><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)"><font size="2">I asked at dinnertime a few nights later whether anyone had located the hidden treasure in the house. This renewed their interest once again, but sadly, a few obligatory sweeps through the rooms downstairs led only to another failed attempt and they returned to their computers and friends.&nbsp;</font></span></span><br><br><span><font size="2"><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">On Christmas Eve, I woke up realizing that the candy drawer was a parable revealing the heart of God towards His own family.</span> <em><span style="color:rgb(19, 79, 92); font-weight:700">How eager the Father is for His children to receive their full inheritance!</span></em> <span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">He delights to reveal His goodness to each one. Yet He longs for us to search out with perseverance the mystery of what He promises:</span> <em><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">all the beauty of Christ in us, hidden in God.&nbsp;</span></em></font></span><br><br><em><span><span style="color:rgb(19, 79, 92); font-weight:700"><font size="2">How often have I looked directly at Christ, I wondered; touched and worshiped Him even, yet failed to apprehend the secret of His extravagant goodness towards me? How often have I passed over the Lord&rsquo;s promises to me as easily as my children pass by the little table, never opening its tiny drawer?&nbsp;</font></span></span></em><br><br><span><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)"><font size="2">God&rsquo;s promises must be seen, touched, and received by faith in order to be enjoyed. Thankfully, believers are given Divine hints - prophetic words - to help us locate what is rightfully ours!&nbsp;</font></span></span><br><br><span><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)"><font size="2">I&rsquo;ll continue to encourage my children until they find their hidden treasures. Yet my greater prayer is that they will never miss the secret treasure of God&rsquo;s promises, hidden in His Word for all to find.&nbsp;&nbsp;</font></span></span><br><br><br><em><span><span style="color:rgb(19, 79, 92); font-weight:700"><font size="2">That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked at and our hands have touched&mdash;this we proclaim concerning the Word of life. The life appeared; we have seen it and testify to it, and we proclaim to you the eternal life, which was with the Father and has appeared to us. We proclaim to you what we have seen and heard, so that you also may have fellowship with us. And our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ. We write this to make our joy complete. ~ 1 John 1:1-4</font></span></span></em><br><br><br></div><div><div style="height: 20px; overflow: hidden; width: 100%;"></div><hr class="styled-hr" style="width:100%;"><div style="height: 20px; overflow: hidden; width: 100%;"></div></div><div><div class="wsite-image wsite-image-border-none" style="padding-top:10px;padding-bottom:10px;margin-left:0px;margin-right:0px;text-align:center"><a href='https://www.hisinscriptions.com/store.html'><img src="https://www.hisinscriptions.com/uploads/2/6/1/8/26186130/published/10-off-sq.jpg?1735065768" alt="Picture" style="width:auto;max-width:100%"></a><div style="display:block;font-size:90%"></div></div></div><div style="text-align:center;"><div style="height: 30px; overflow: hidden;"></div><a class="wsite-button wsite-button-large wsite-button-highlight" href="https://www.hisinscriptions.com/donate.html"><span class="wsite-button-inner">Enjoy reading Deborah's posts?

There seem to be innumerable &ldquo;hits&rdquo; from the enemy and you&rsquo;re wondering where it&rsquo;s safe to land. You&rsquo;ve asked God how to find that place of rest He has promised you. The pain and grief surfacing in your heart right now feels a bit &ldquo;too close for comfort.&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;</span><br><br><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight:700">I heard the Lord saying that your tears and your honest heart before God are keys to finding your place of rest. As you empty your soul of its sorrows He will refuel and strengthen you. He is &ldquo;the God of all comfort&rdquo; (2 Corinthians 1:3).</span><br><br><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">Your tears are not in vain; they have spiritual &ldquo;substance&rdquo; to them. It&rsquo;s important to allow God to unlock and release the pain from these deeper wounds in order to bring COMPLETE FREEDOM and RESTORED JOY to your soul.&nbsp;</span><br><br><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">Specifically, I heard the Lord emphasize that He desires His Bride to focus on the &ldquo;TIDINGS OF COMFORT and joy&rdquo; He is releasing in this season.&nbsp;&nbsp;</span><br><br><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">The angels&rsquo; message of comfort is not confined to Christmas but represents the very heart of God to bring people back from captivity. Just as Christ&rsquo;s birth brought comfort to Mary and His ministry released the oil of gladness, so the &lsquo;Consolation of Israel&rsquo; is revealing Himself once again as the source of compassion and love for those who are suffering.&nbsp;</span><br><br><em><font color="#3F3F3F"><span style="font-weight:700">&ldquo;As one whom his mother comforts, so I will comfort you; and you will be comforted in Jerusalem.&rdquo;</span> ~Isaiah 66:13</font></em><br><br><br><strong><span><font color="#3F3F3F">&ldquo;COMFORT FOOD&rdquo;</font></span></strong><br><br><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">As I sought the Lord to understand more of His desire to comfort His people, He answered with two illustrations from Psalm 23.&nbsp;</span><br><br><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">First, I saw the Good Shepherd leading His people by quiet waters. He is releasing peace to His people; those who follow Him are seeing deep soul-wounds restored. (Ps. 23:2-3)</span><br><br><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">Second, He showed me the table set before one&rsquo;s enemies, saying: <em>&ldquo;</em></span><em><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight:700">Every time you come to me I fill you COMPLETELY</span><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">.&rdquo;&nbsp;</span></em><br><br><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">There is a standing invitation to feast upon the Lord; His flesh is the living Word that nourishes and sustains us.&nbsp;</span><br><br><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight:700">The table in Psalm 23 is heaven&rsquo;s &lsquo;comfort food.&rsquo;</span> <span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">There is no earthly food or coping mechanism that will comfort as deeply and completely as what the Lord gives to His Bride.</span> <span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)"><em>He satisfies her Himself!&nbsp;</em></span><br><br><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">In particular, the Lord highlighted to me those who are dreading the holidays because of the recent death of a loved one. I knew that He felt the sharp pain of these losses. Yet I saw that those who come to Him when earth&rsquo;s festive tables hold no joy will be embraced, understood, comforted, and made to feel &ldquo;complete&rdquo; again in ways that no spouse, child, or friend can supply.&nbsp;</span><br><br><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight:700">To those who are mourning, the Lord will show you your next steps when you choose that place of deep communion with Him. Overwhelming suffering is to be met with His abundant comfort.&nbsp;&nbsp;</span><br><br><br><strong><font color="#3F3F3F">EVEN THERE, YOU GUIDE ME</font></strong><br><br><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">Finally, I heard the cries of those who feel like there is no hope.&nbsp;</span><br><br><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">For some who are struggling at this time, depression has lasted well past its expiration date. These may have said at some point that they live <em>&ldquo;in hell itself</em>;&rdquo;* they don&rsquo;t have the answers and there seems to be no escape.&nbsp;</span><br><br><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">EVEN THERE, the Lord is revealing Himself as Immanuel, &lsquo;God with us.&rsquo; His Presence is limitless; He is the One who will walk through walls and locked doors to restore His people! (John 20:19-26)</span><br><br><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">If this is you, it is time to shake off the dungeon dust and believe that there is NO PLACE where God&rsquo;s light cannot penetrate darkness.&nbsp;</span><br><br><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">Darkness is as light to the Lord; He is here not just to comfort you in your sorrow but to set you completely free.* As you refocus your eyes on the light of the Word, you will find the strength you need to get up again and go forth in the purposes to which He&rsquo;s called you:&nbsp;</span><br><br><em><span><font color="#3F3F3F"><span style="font-weight:700">&ldquo;Indeed, the LORD will comfort Zion; He will comfort all her waste places. And her wilderness He will make like Eden, And her desert like the garden of the LORD; Joy and gladness will be found in her, Thanksgiving and sound of a melody.&rdquo; ~</span> Isaiah 51:3 NASBS</font></span></em><br><br><br><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">The &ldquo;real you&rdquo; exists not in the realm of the flesh but in the realm of the Spirit, if the Holy Spirit lives in you. As He did in the early days of the Church, the Holy Spirit - our Comforter - is actively comforting and strengthening those who have suffered trials, pulling off rags of despair and depression and replacing them with garments of joy and praise.&nbsp;</span><br><br><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">In this season where we celebrate Christ, your mourning is a blessing in disguise: it is your doorway into the comfort of the Lord.</span><br><br><em><strong><span><font color="#3F3F3F">Deborah&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</font><font color="#000000">&nbsp;</font></span></strong></em><br><br><br><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)"><em><a href="https://www.hisinscriptions.com/">&copy; Deborah Perkins / www.HisInscriptions.com</a><br>*See Psalm 139:8-12; John 20:19-26, &amp; 2 Corinthians 3:17; Luke 2:8-14 &nbsp;</em></span></font><br><br></div><div style="text-align:center;"><div style="height: 20px; overflow: hidden;"></div><a class="wsite-button wsite-button-large wsite-button-highlight" href="https://www.hisinscriptions.com/donate.html"><span class="wsite-button-inner">Enjoy receiving these posts?

He had asked me to focus on the fourth creature: the eagle, which symbolizes the prophetic nature of Christ.&nbsp;&nbsp;</span><br><br><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">While multiple aspects of the eagle are important for believers, the key feature highlighted to me during this encounter was the eagle's eyes.</span><br><br><br><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight:700">THE COMPANY OF EAGLES</span><br><br><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">The Lord emphasized that <strong>long-range vision is critical for His Body right now, especially for prophets and watchmen.</strong> As chaos increases around the world, spiritual &ldquo;eagles&rdquo; must remain with the Lord constantly in a posture of throne-room worship, the only sure place of vision and insight for the days ahead.&nbsp;</span><br><br><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">Eagles&rsquo; eyes are known to lighten as they mature, turning from a dark brown to light yellow. This is a natural illustration of a spiritual principle found in Psalm 119:130: eyes full of light will bring messages of truth and healing to the entire Body. (Mt. 6:22/Is 40/Ps 103)</span><br><br><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">Not only this, but the Lord then took me to the summit of a very high mountain in the Spirit, where it seemed I could see the top of every mountain on earth.</span><br><br><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight:700">From the Lord&rsquo;s perspective, every nation is visible and immediately accessible.</span> <span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">Nothing is hidden.&nbsp;&nbsp;</span><br><br><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">Using a natural analogy once again, the Lord showed me that Israel&rsquo;s highest point, the 9200-foot summit of Mount Hermon, has a military outpost known as the &ldquo;</span><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight:700">eyes of the nation.</span><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">&rdquo; From this perch, Israel&rsquo;s army watches and reports enemy movements on the borders of Syria, Lebanon, and the Golan Heights.</span><br><br><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">Prophetic &ldquo;eagles&rdquo; are able to watch, pray, and decree from the summit of the Mountain of the Lord, which is higher than every other mountain (Isaiah 2:2).&nbsp;</span><br><br><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">I watched in this encounter as eagles of all kinds <em>(prophets to the nations, &ldquo;7 mountains&rdquo; prophets, and prophets in various spheres of influence)</em> flew up, down, and around their mountains, noticing key meetings that took place out in the open as well as those in hidden caves.&nbsp;</span><br><br><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">The eagles&rsquo; ability to soar made them God&rsquo;s &ldquo;early warning system&rdquo; for the Body of Christ. When necessary, their shrill cries warned others of enemies or danger ahead. The eagles&rsquo; sharp eyes discerned wicked schemes that could then be uncovered and broken apart like prey.&nbsp;</span><br><br><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)"><strong>Filled with throne-room visions, eagle prophets are released to serve and impact various spheres of influence on every mountain. They expect their gifts to make room for them among even the leaders of the world</strong> (Proverbs 18:16).&nbsp;</span><br><br><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">Like Daniel, Jeremiah, and Paul, eagle prophets bring trusted, non-partisan counsel that exalts Christ&rsquo;s Kingdom alone. They champion no association but their association with Jesus (see Joshua 5:13-14).&nbsp;</span><br><br><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">They speak the truth in love even to perceived enemies, bringing salvation and powerful change for the better (Acts 9:15; 1 Samuel 16).</span> <span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight:700">They know that without love, their greatest gifts of discernment mean nothing.&nbsp;</span><br><br><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">Yet above all, eagles know that their true &ldquo;sphere of influence&rdquo; is with the Lord Himself. They soar at the Lord&rsquo;s command (Job 39:26). Their ministries are from Him, through Him, and to Him.&nbsp;</span><br><br><br><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight:700">POWER THROUGH HUMILITY</span><br><br><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">The year 2024 has been linked prophetically to Psalm 24, a psalm of ascent. Within the psalm is a caution: to soar or &ldquo;summit&rdquo; in the Spirit will always require that believers submit to purification, humbling themselves and leaving the flesh at &ldquo;base camp.&rdquo;&nbsp;</span><br><br><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">Spiritual flight begins counter-intuitively in places of stillness, rest, and subjection to the will of Christ (Isaiah 40:31). Strength is renewed by waiting in the Lord&rsquo;s Presence. (Psalm 103:5.)&nbsp;</span><br><br><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight:700">Many &ldquo;eagles&rdquo; have been through a time of intense purification which has brought either godly humility or great humiliation. I believe the Lord wants to encourage those who have submitted to this fiery process and allowed God to build humility within.&nbsp;</span><br><br><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">Although it feels like you are being deeply crushed, your humble response causes you, imperceptibly, to ascend to higher ground in the Spirit. As you stretch your wings, you will feel a new level of protection. You will catch the fresh winds of the Spirit and soar once again.&nbsp;</span><br><br><br><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight:700">DAVID AND ITTAI</span><br><br><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">The Lord highlighted a prophetic picture in 2 Samuel 15 which embodies many peoples&rsquo; experiences in this hour. Through this passage, Jesus reiterated the need for vision, faithfulness, and humility in times of accusation, betrayal, or what seems like the death of a dream.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</span><br><br><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">Although David had finally become king of Israel, his son Absalom usurped the kingdom temporarily through treason.&nbsp;</span><br><br><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">David left Jerusalem barefoot, weeping and mourning.
