A voice is calling, "Clear the way for the LORD in the wilderness; Make smooth in the desert a highway for our God. "Let every valley be lifted up, And every mountain and hill be made low; And let the rough ground become a plain, And the rugged terrain a broad valley; Then the GLORY OF THE LORD will be revealed, And all flesh will see it together; For the mouth of the LORD has spoken." ~Isaiah 40:3-5 NASBS Dear Friends, As I prepared to teach a seminar this week on the Sound of Glory, the Lord opened my prayer time quoting Isaiah 40:6-7, saying: “All flesh is as grass. The grass withers; the flower fades, but the WORD of the Lord STANDS forever.” The Lord then provided His own commentary on these verses, saying: “I want to make YOU [My people] the Living Word! I want YOU to STAND in the holy places of My Presence to see and decree what you hear. I want YOU to be a SWORD OF SOUND! (Isaiah 49:2) "I want the sound of My voice to resonate so sharply within you so that it slices through demonic atmospheres and sets people free. Peter cut off the ear, but I would restore the hearing of My people so that they can again perceive the value of what I am saying and doing. "No one can truly perceive anything without the power of the Spirit as an “overlay.”* Think of the Holy Spirit as My unique amplification device: your spiritual “hearing aid,” for isn’t that His very role? He is sent to help (aid) you in hearing Me. He instructs you in the way you should go. And He compels you to follow the LORD OF GLORY (1 Cor. 2:8). "My Spirit is now unfolding the mystery of the ages for My corporate Body, who will arise in unison to decree what they hear. I have been fine tuning ALL who come to Me so that they - their voices joined together - will match the perfect sound of My anointed Words. "ANOINTINGS COMBINED CREATE GLORIOUS OUTPOURINGS! Gatherings of power will now begin to take place around the world as believers wake up to the reality of the power of the SOUND OF GLORY. For yes! There is a unique and powerful SOUND to what I say; do not miss My sounds in this hour! I say to you that there will be even CORPORATE BIRTHING AND GROANING SESSIONS where devoted intercessors will weep and groan like Ezra’s Jews in the time of the exile, weeping and uttering sounds of repentance that have the power to change a nation (Ezra 9-10). "Others will gather and create praise-filled hubs of glorious worship: the sound of PRAISE TO MY NAME. This praise will shatter strongholds in the regions where these worshipers meet; and those anointed to make decrees as spiritual legislators will then come in to re-establish godly foundations in those same regions. "Still others will anoint YOUTH and FUTURE GENERATIONS with the unique sound of BLESSINGS which unlock destinies and create pathways of power. For the youth need the sounds of the aged to propel and empower them in the things of God! "DO NOT WITHHOLD YOUR VOICES, for I have MADE you My sword; I have MADE you My sound in this critical hour and you MUST continue to speak, sing, bless, groan, and decree all that I’ve put in your hearts! "No one but My godly ones can emit a PURE sound. The enemy has raised up an ARMY OF SOUND-CARRIERS, releasing SOUND BITES to DEVOUR My children. THIS SHALL NOT STAND! It shall not be so as My holy ones arise and stand in the might of My Spirit and remain within the sound of My voice! "Obedience will release the blessings; wisdom acquired will propel you into all the right places where I will then use YOUR VOICE to release the SOUND OF GLORY across the earth. This cumulative sound arising from My pure and holy ones will cover the earth as the waters cover the sea. "Do not look yet for the glorious appearing of My Son; but look for the appearing of My Son IN YOU and the overcoming victories which must first take place for My Body! For I would give YOU the victories; I would see YOU come into the fullness of mature sons and daughters who not only LOOK but also SOUND just like Me,” says the Lord of Glory!

THE GLORIOUS MESSAGE OF WISDOM We declare God’s wisdom, a mystery that has been hidden and that God destined for our GLORY before time began. None of the rulers understood it, for if they had, they would not have crucified the LORD OF GLORY. …These are the things God has revealed to us by His Spirit. What we speak is not in words taught us by human wisdom but in words taught by the Spirit, explaining spiritual realities with Spirit-taught words. The person without the Spirit …cannot understand them because they are discerned only through the Spirit. …But we have the mind of Christ. (1 Corinthians 2:6-16) As I sought the Lord last week about this Fall season, the Father opened up a set of blueprints on a round table in the Spirit. The Holy Spirit spoke the words from Amos 3:7: “Surely the Sovereign LORD does nothing without revealing his plan to his servants the prophets.” As the Holy Spirit spoke, a depression-era, cathedral-style wooden radio appeared in the Spirit above the blueprints. I heard the Father say the word: “BROADCASTS!” As He had said two years ago, the Lord confirmed that He intends to broadcast believer’s voices into many homes around the world to bring direction and reassurance in uncertain times. Believers are being raised up as prophetic evangelists, teachers, and creatives to BROADCAST a message of hope in Jesus through radio, television, and various other mediums. Despite censorship and broad-scale attempts of the enemy to MOCK or SILENCE God’s people, I hear the Lord encouraging His children to BOLDLY PROCLAIM the Word of God in this season. There is an open door in the Spirit to BROADCAST - to scatter abroad - His message by every available means! Some of you have a call to write books, create audio books, or start podcasts. Some have a call to broadcast truth through the arts or media. Others have a burning desire to write plays, musicals, or poetry that highlight God’s glory. NOW IS THE TIME to publish and proclaim what God has given you! There is a CREATIVE ANOINTING being released to birth these new expressions of His Word. As you sow your seeds, the Lord will activate them in their new destinations. Those who are “in tune” with the frequencies of the Holy Spirit will be set in place and “switched on” like that radio, releasing God’s heart to every generation. Dear Friends, In an unusual encounter during prayer this week, the Father took me into the kitchen of a house in the Spirit. He wanted to show me two insidious attacks the enemy was using to defile the Body of Christ. While I most often interpret ‘kitchens’ as places of prophetic preparation for ministry, in this case Father said the kitchen represented the “nerve center” of the home: the hearts and minds of believers. As the Father led me into the kitchen, I was horrified to see rats running about on the floors! 
Who may ascend into the hill of the LORD? And who may stand in His holy place? He who has clean hands and a pure heart, who has not lifted up his soul to falsehood and has not sworn deceitfully. He shall receive a blessing from the LORD And righteousness from the God of his salvation. This is the generation of those who seek Him, Who seek Your face - even Jacob. Selah. ~Psalm 24:3-6 NASBS Psalm 24 is a powerful psalm of David for the year 2024. It teaches us how to ascend above the chaos and collisions to enter into promised encounters with the Lord. Spiritual encounters happen more easily as we consecrate ourselves to lives of purity, rejecting rampant deception. Hebrews 12:22 also confirms that spiritual ascension is not a new-age concept but a biblical, mystical reality. God longs for you to live in the Spirit, experiencing heavenly places with Him! To help you ascend spiritually, the Lord asked me to take a prophetic word from 2021 and expand it into a book. The new 40 page book: CALLED TO ASCEND: A Prophetic Mandate to Soar in the Spirit, is now available on Amazon as a paperback and an e-book. I invite you to purchase a copy of the book to use in your personal quiet time or small group study. Each chapter contains study questions to help you apply the prophetic words to your life. The Lord urged me to send this particular book far and wide; please help me share the message with friends and churches who are seeking deeper encounters with the Lord. You can also leave a book review on Amazon, which helps boost its reach. Click on the image above or the button below to purchase. Thank you! 90-DAY NATIONAL CALL TO PRAYEROn 8/8/24, the day before Lou Engle and Christy Johnston called for 90 days of prayer prior to the elections (below), I was out on a prayer walk. Along the way, I found an abandoned "99 Restaurant" gift card that someone had dropped and abandoned in the streets. The card had exactly $1.49 remaining in its balance. The Lord said to pay attention: the dollar amount was significant and connected to one of my favorite Scriptures: Psalm 149. This is a Psalm of victory for the saints of God! It is a promise of justice and vindication being released as believers in Yeshua lift up high praises to their King. One day later, I received Lou's Briefing containing Christy's dream to pray for the 90 days prior to our national elections. Not coincidentally, Lou highlighted the very same scripture, Psalm 149, as a "key" to praying for our nation and for Israel right now. The timing of this prophetic "gift" dropped into the streets is no accident; it is a time-sensitive CALL TO PRAYER! I believe the Spirit of Might is now working through worshiping intercessors who are using the sword of God's Word to decree the righteous judgments of God in America, their families, and the nations. As I continued to ponder this sign, the Lord brought me to Luke 1:49, which records an amazingly similar song of victory - Mary's magnificat: "My soul exalts the Lord, and my spirit has rejoiced in God my Savior. For He has had regard for the humble state of His bondslave; for behold, from this time on all generations will count me blessed. For the Mighty One has done great things for me; and holy is His name. And His mercy is upon generation after generation to those who fear Him. He has done mighty deeds with His arm; He has scattered those who were proud in the thoughts of their heart. He has brought down rulers (lit. "mighty ones;" from the same Greek root used for "Mighty" above) from their thrones and has exalted those who were humble. He has filled the hungry with good things; and sent away the rich empty-handed. He has given help to Israel His servant, in remembrance of His mercy, as He spoke to our fathers, To Abraham and his descendants forever." (Luke 1:46-55; NASB; emphasis mine.) We are living in a remarkable, powerful time where kingdoms collide openly before our eyes and the enemy brazenly broadcasts his hand. Empowered by our prayers, God is pulling down ancient supernatural strongholds and so-called "mighty" rulers that have hindered believers from advancing by infiltrating every level of our government, media, and culture. How we pray right now is essential for restoring covenantal, godly legacy in the land! NEW COVENANT PROMISESWhile the Psalm 149 confirmation was amazing, there was more to the gift card that God wanted to reveal. The card contained another number: "99." In Matthew 18 Jesus speaks about the shepherd who leaves the 99 to go after the lost, straying sheep; a beautiful picture of His merciful love for a straying nation. Jesus has not abandoned America; He is leading us back to a place of joyful revival! The Lord then brought me back to Genesis 17, where Abram was 99 years old. At 99 Abram has a life-changing encounter with El Shaddai, or "God ALMIGHTY." Here God initiates the Covenant of Circumcision with Abram, renaming him Abraham. He promises that Abraham and Sarah will be a "father and mother of many nations" through their promised son, Isaac. God "deeds" the entire land of Canaan to Abraham as an everlasting possession, pledging Himself to Abraham's descendants as their God. As a sign of this new covenant, Abraham is to circumcise every male in his household at 8 days old. This points to yet another confirmation: my "99" gift card was found on 8/8/24, a day of new beginnings! Through simple signs like Christy's dream, Lou's scripture, and a highly symbolic "gift" in the streets, God is urging us to pay attention to our COVENANT realities and promises. His abiding desire is to restore lost peoples and nations to His heart. He is still willing to leave the 99 for the one that will bring rejoicing in heaven, just as Isaac brought laughter to his parents. Our covenant with Israel has never been more important to uphold. As Lou mentions, peace will not come by political means but only through the Spirit. Our prayers and high praises are the spiritual keys that unlock nations as well as hearts and have the power to restore even covenant relationships that have been broken. I urge you to read or listen to Lou and Christy's short Briefing below, then join with me for the next 90 days of prayer and communion which culminate in our national elections! Gratefully, Deborah
During a time of prayer last week, I felt a grieving in the Lord’s heart over the deep brokenness in the Body of Christ that has come from man’s abuses of authority.
Whether through past traumas or recent trials, many mighty warriors are processing wounds inflicted on them by misguided parents, pastors, or other leaders. These deceived authority figures are people who should have shown the way to the Father, but instead threw away the key to intimacy. Demanding undue honor themselves, they failed to honor the Lord and His precious Body. I also saw that some of the most fervent believers who were praying for the fullness of God’s glory and power to come to earth, found themselves surprised by opposition within their own hearts when that same power actually began to manifest! This opposition stemmed from wounds buried deeper than they realized. I heard the Lord say that the enemy’s strategy here is to use these old, hidden wounds around authority issues to reconnect you to the fear of trauma and even to resist the power of God as it begins to increase in your life! The Lord is longing to restore those who are hungry for His manifest Presence on the earth. He wants to rebuild the trust and intimacy that was lost, removing all barriers to seeing Him as He is: a mighty, all-powerful, and GOOD God.
Dear Friends,
God is so many wonderful things to the believer: Father, Deliverer, Friend, Protector, Refuge, and Savior. Through the gifts of Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit, God loves and guides us as we walk through the "wilderness" of this world on our way to the Promised Land of heaven! As I mediated on Psalm 68 and Numbers 10 this week, the Lord highlighted three particular attributes of Himself that He wanted me to share with you. He is a Cherished Husband, a Prophetic Guide, and a source of Rest and Refreshment at Rephidim. Listen to this audio teaching from our Leaders' Bible Study to discover beautiful prophetic parallels between Israel's encounters in the wilderness and the Body of Christ's journey today. Blessings, Deborah 
Dear Friends, Over the past few weeks I have been deeply moved by the heart of God for restoration and for the emergence of what is best described as a ‘Judges 4 Company’ of anointed Deborahs and Baraks. These believers are characterized by unusual partnerships with each other and with the supernatural. Before reading the rest of this word, I encourage you to stop and reread Judges 4 & 5 to familiarize yourself with the scriptures concerning this time period in Israel’s history, which closely parallels our own!

Blessings, Deborah 
Dear Friends, For several weeks now as I’ve listened to the Lord, I have felt such a fiery passion in His heart for intimacy with His Bride! There is a loud cry and a standing invitation in the Spirit for the Body of Christ to “come up higher” and abide in an ascended place of intimacy with our risen Lord. I had a vision of the enemy trying to advance ahead of the Bride, digging ditches and depressions along the path and desiring to trip her. But her intimacy with the Lord and her ability to walk in the Spirit kept her high above such traps. Even as Satan is trying to disturb and deconstruct heaven’s influence on earth, God is shaking demonic foundations and bringing heaven to earth! Specifically, I’ve been drawn to Christ’s words to the church of Philadelphia in Revelation. I’ve heard the Lord say that in order for His Bride to be a present-day overcomer, there are two doors she must access. Two doors must always remain open. The first door is the door to the Kingdom of Heaven. 
For nothing is hidden that will not be made manifest, nor is anything secret that will not be known and come to light. ~ Luke 8:17 
To you, O Lord, I lift up my soul. O my God, in You I have unwavering trust and I rely on You with steadfast confidence. ~Psalm 25:1-2; AMP Dear Friends, During an early-morning prayer time last week, I was pouring out my heart to the Lord. Prayers for those I love; thoughts about ministry and the world we’re living in; challenges I face on a daily basis; all these came flooding out of my soul until suddenly I realized I was doing more talking than listening. It is a deep desire of mine to hear the Lord’s heart, not just to pour out my own. I quickly stopped to ask forgiveness, inviting the Lord to share HIS heart with me instead. With such tenderness, He said: “THIS IS what’s on My heart. THIS CONVERSATION is what I died for!” Immediately I was filled with such an awareness of the Lord’s unlimited love for His children. We are quick to “censor” ourselves based on what we feel is right or acceptable as Christians, even in prayer. Yet God is quick to remind us that it will always be the relationship, not the protocol, that is most important to Him. We develop deep trust in the Lord by honestly pouring out our souls. David writes in Psalm 25:1: “To YOU, O Lord, I lift up my soul!” The shift from emotional dependency on others to a leaning, childlike dependency of our souls on the Lord is the very thing God hopes for most in His children. It is the end of idolatry and the beginning of a powerful partnership when your closest confidante is the Lord. God longs to listen to your heart! He longs to show you a graciousness that exceeds the human capacity to listen; to love; to understand; and to encourage. In fact, your heart IS a prayer; so much so that the Lord says the Father knows what you need before you ask! The well of Living Water is deep. The Holy Spirit is given without limit; without ration. Yet we are so used to rationed love and limited listening that we sometimes miss the beauty of the Lord! There is no shame in lifting up your soul to the Lord with all its troubles and trials, joys and victories. The Lord delights in hearing them! He paid the ultimate price to rend the veil of separation so that you could know and trust Him this way. Your hope of intimate communication with God will not disappoint. He is not too busy; He has no other agendas. God lives to strengthen, heal, and empower your heart. What benefit is there to God? He knows that out of His gentle lovingkindness, you will find the courage to serve and obey Him in return. You will help bring many sons to glory. What a beautiful relationship! Such a joy and a wonder that the God of all things would consider our hearts worthy of His attention! David knew this and wrote: “ALL the paths of the Lord are lovingkindness and goodness, truth and faithfulness to those who keep His covenant and His testimonies.” (Psalm 25:10, AMP) Keeping covenant with God is as simple as loving Him honestly from your heart. Everything flows from this place of deep openness, trust, and understanding. When I know that my heart has been heard; when I sense that my soul is satisfied in His Presence, I can move mountains. I can conquer armies. I can stand against all the challenges that assault, day in and day out (Psalm 18). This is the victory Christ died for: your ability to overcome all things through your heart’s trusting relationship with Him! David continues these heartfelt thoughts in Psalm 26:6, saying he refuses the company of deceitful, wicked men. The "man after God's own heart" resolves that his life will revolve around God’s altar: “Oh Lord, I love the habitation of Your house and the place where Your glory dwells! I will go about Your altar, O Lord, that I may proclaim with the voice of thanksgiving and declare all Your wonders.” These are the words of a man smitten by the beauty of God’s love for him! These are the words of someone who was not afraid to pour out his soul to the Lord. David knew that every prayer time would enrich him with greater trust and fresh confidence: “O My God, in You I have unwavering trust and I rely on You with steadfast confidence!” (Psalm 25:2, AMP; emphasis mine.) I believe that in this particular season, the Lord’s heart is to develop a deeper level of trust with His Bride than ever before. There is fire and passion on the altar of a consecrated life. Intimacy with you is what Christ died for. May He win you back as surely as He has won me. Deborah REGISTRATION NOW OPEN FOR PROPHETIC MENTORING COURSE!

Dear Friends,
Many times, people feel frustrated that they don’t hear clearly from God, yet they never take specific steps to cultivate a listening ear.
Since we have biblical promises that believers can hear from the Lord (John 10:27), it’s up to us to listen, lest we drift from God's good plan for our future!
Dear Friends,
Praise God for the Light of Life, which no darkness will ever extinguish!
Our family celebrates the birth of Jesus into the world this weekend and the birth of His love into our hearts forevermore.
There is no greater comfort; there is no better gift! We feel very blessed to share fellowship with you through God's wonderful Holy Spirit.
Please know that we're praying for you and are so grateful for your love and partnership with His Inscriptions this year. Thank you.
From our family to yours, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
Kevan & Deborah Perkins
Dear Friends,
This week, I heard the Lord saying:
"A STRONG anointing will be upon My Word from this point on. Where you once found My Word dry and meaningless, you will now see Bible verses come alive to you as I shepherd you through your daily readings.
"In this season, I am breathing FIRE onto My Words that will ignite encounters you have never known before. You will find Me as a good Father who is actively at work to win you back from the lies and deceptions of the enemy."
Dear Friends,
Two years ago while ministering in Tennessee, I had a middle-of the-night encounter with the Lord.
In a vision, the Lord seated me at a student's desk and showed me a workbook soon to be published for believers in the "School of the Holy Spirit."
The book's topic was spiritual leadership. I sensed it would be foundational to those wanting to grow in Spirit-led ministry.
In this vision, the Lord asked me to turn the book over and read the back cover.
When I did, I discovered that the author's name was my own.
The vision closed.
Today I am happy to announce that this very book - PROPHETIC LEADERSHIP - has just been published!
BOOK COVER
Dear Friends,
Throughout this week I have felt such encouragement from the Lord concerning the present course many in the Body of Christ are on.
I believe the Lord wants you to know that the steps of obedience you have taken to walk in new, unfamiliar, even uncomfortable things this season are a blessing to His heart! God is carefully ordering your steps; watching over every detail of your life so that you arrive at your destination whole, complete, and empowered by His Spirit.
The direction you are taking and the timing of the fullness of the new things that He's calling you into is so perfectly ordered and orchestrated. No matter what things look like around you, the Holy Spirit within is paying close attention to the details. He’s causing all things to work together for you, not against you!
Wisdom has built her house, She has hewn out her seven pillars; She has prepared her food, She has mixed her wine; She has also set her table; She has sent out her maidens, She calls from the tops of the heights of the city: "Whoever is naive, let him turn in here!" To him who lacks understanding She says, "Come, eat of my food and drink of the wine I have mixed. "Forsake your folly and live, and proceed in the way of understanding."
~ Proverbs 9:1-6 NASBS
Dear Friends,
In a series of encounters since Rosh Hashanah, the Lord has been speaking to me about what to expect in 2024 (Hebrew year 5784).
Above all, I believe the Body of Christ will see significant EMPOWERMENT this year as we embrace our beautiful friendship and partnership with the Holy Spirit.
Dear Friends,
I had a wonderful opportunity to pray along California's coastline last week with a few members of our prayer team, inviting the Lord to protect the West Coast of America. With 840 miles of shoreline in the state, there's a lot to cover!
I know that many of you are praying and anointing the regions where you live right now, too. I believe today's post will inspire you!
Our little team (including participants from both San Diego and San Francisco) prayer-walked, worshiped, and shared communion throughout San Francisco; at the Golden Gate Bridge; at the beach in Pacifica (meaning "Peace"); at the Presidio in Monterey, in Santa Cruz, and along the coast at Half Moon Bay.
When I returned to New England, I felt strongly that the Lord wanted me to share some decrees and scriptural proclamations you can make as you pray for your own regions and coastlines. I believe these will be a blessing to you.
ANTICIPATING GREATER GLORY
The week before our team's journey, I was also led to pray inland, in the Central Valley / Shasta area of Northern California.
For a full day, the Lord took me on an unexpected prayer journey to a mountain waterfall and reservoir next to a hydroelectric power plant.
I discovered it was one of several that President John F. Kennedy had visited in 1963 on his 11-state "Conservation Tour."
In fact, JFK visited this location just 55 days before his assassination.
In partnership with the "Bureau of Reclamation" (Now the Department of the Interior), Kennedy assisted the National Park Service in reclaiming Western state water supplies for energy, irrigation, and recreation.
As I worshiped at this waterfall, I felt so strongly that the Lord wanted me to see and touch this picture and promise of revival up close.
Deep calls unto deep at the sound of His waterfalls! (Psalm 42:7.)
God is calling believers into even deeper places of the intimate knowledge of His Presence and power. His glory will soon be poured out like torrents of living water.
God wants to "reclaim" His people and empower end-time believers to carry His glory like never before!
That is not all, though. I had no idea what the Lord was about to reveal to me!
When I returned to the prayer room, the Lord told me to map out Kennedy's tour of the western states. I discovered that 60 years ago, JFK had visited the very place where I stood. September 28, 2023 marks the anniversary of his visit. November 22 marks the day of his death - 55 days later.
Not coincidentally, the Lord added that JFK also visited Klamath Falls, Oregon on the same 1963 tour.
Next; almost miraculously, God led me to a prophetic vision He'd given to renowned Bible teacher Fuschia Pickett.
In 1963, the same year the Lord had already highlighted to me, Dr. Pickett had a significant encounter with the Lord concerning the end-time church and how revival would come.
As Pickett stood in the sanctuary of a church in Klamath Falls, Oregon, the Lord opened to her a vision of what His end-time glorious church would look like.
Not surprisingly, it looked like hydroelectric power, with living water filling up deeply-excavated reservoirs until they overflowed. Layers of underground pipes were to be laid first as God "networked" remnant believers and revival-minded churches together. Then with the flip of a switch, the power of God would ignite an unprecedented flow of the Holy Spirit!
Dr. Pickett wrote:
"The Holy Spirit used the analogy of a hydroelectric power plant to explain to me what He was going to do. (I knew nothing about electricity; I couldn’t have fixed a light switch if my life depended upon it.) Hour after hour He carried me into the revelation of this vision, showing me heaven’s dunamis power.
"The Greek word for the power of the Holy Spirit is dunamis, from which we derive our word dynamo. The analogy of a hydroelectric power plant was a dramatic word picture to reveal the dunamis work of the Holy Spirit. It would not have surprised me that the Holy Spirit would describe His working in the heavenlies using such an analogy."
(Read her entire vision here.)
Pickett's vision was so remarkable at the time that a scientist - who knew Fuschia could not have understood the workings of hydroelectric power except by the Spirit of God - told her she had described with perfect accuracy how such a plant should work!
Friends, it is not an accident that God sovereignly brought me to that waterfall, opened up time and history with a map, and then connected us with such a poignant prophetic word concerning end-time revival!
I am more convinced than ever that we are close to a significant "kairos" moment in Kingdom history which has been anticipated and desired for many years! Fuschia Pickett has gone home to be with the Lord, but the legacy of her vision and encounter with the Lord remains.
I hear the Lord saying: "Let your longing match My desire."
God is reclaiming both people and lands for His Kingdom and preparing us for His glory!
Press in with everything you have for a great outpouring in this hour.
Do not say that things are continuing as they always have; recognize that for many years God has been supernaturally networking believers, digging deep wells and reservoirs that can contain His outpouring. He is still patiently longing for repentance and restoration!
Much of the deep refining the Body of Christ has experienced in recent years points to God's preparatory work of "excavation." My unexpected journey and the connection to Pickett's 1963 vision are important markers of God's present-day intentions to FILL HIS HOUSE with glory!
You can go as deep as you want to in God. The choice is yours.
I encourage you to read Dr Pickett's wonderful encounter concerning hydroelectric power here. Her vision is for an appointed time, and we are now closer than ever!
May your faith be stirred and your spirit supercharged to pray in Holy Spirit-designated cities and coastlines all over your nation. God's heavenly "Bureau of Reclamation" is at work right now, and you are part of that department!
There is NO LIMIT to what God will do through the prayers of believing saints. Let your longing now match His desire to redeem, restore, and reclaim!
In Him,
Deborah
Dear Friends,
There are so many wonderful prophetic words concerning the amazing glory and vindication the Body of Christ is beginning to experience. My heart is stirred with faith and expectancy to see God continue to empower His Body in greater ways and with the fullness of His Spirit!
At the same time, there is even greater resistance from the enemy, who continues to do everything in his power to stop the advance of God’s army.
Today, I want to share with you a powerful vision the Lord gave me to show us how to overcome this resistance!
Dear Friends,
In a series of encounters over the past few months, Father God has taken me repeatedly into His heart, speaking of His desire for wholeness and healing in the Body of Christ. There has been a sustained emphasis on healing and restoration. For many this process is ongoing.
This morning as I encountered the Father’s heart again, I saw His intense desire for union and communion with His children.
Dear Friends,
This week, I felt such a burden in the Lord’s heart for those facing weariness and discouragement as you wait for certain promises to come to pass.
Knowing that God is “there,” aware, or omnipresent isn’t enough when you’re weary or facing severe trials. You must have a personal, authentic faith-connection with God in order to keep drawing His strength into your life!
As I talked with the Lord about the disappointment and delays I know many are facing, He took me back to the story of Caleb, revealing fresh insight about what it means to be faithful to God for prolonged periods of time.
Supersonic to Hypersonic: Another Anointing for Increase and Mobility in the Body of Christ!

Dear Friends,
Happy National Day of Prayer!
On this special day, I’d like to share with you a dream I had concerning imminent mobilization in the Body of Christ.
