Dear Friends,
As this year draws to a close, I’m amazed at what God has done through His Inscriptions, thanks to your prayers and ongoing support! While "measuring" ministry effectiveness is not easy (how do you put a value on a changed life?), there are many things for which we can praise God. In 2024 we: My husband and I have a secret candy drawer in our home now, a recent addition. I found a little side table on a day trip we took a few months ago; it matched my office furniture perfectly, being from the same maker. Delighted, I refinished the table and set it up in our living room. 
Dear friends, For several days the Lord has urged me to release words of COMFORT for those who are struggling at this time. I believe there is a deep work of healing and restoration taking place in the Body of Christ to counter the brokenness and grief so many are feeling. I hear the Lord saying He wants to bring an end to present trauma and tears. This is a time to receive heaven’s comfort in exchange for your sorrow. 
Dear Friends, As I prepared to mentor a group of prophetic believers last week, I asked the Lord what His greatest desire was for them. In response, He said, “I want them to be WITH ME where I am.” (John 17:24) I sensed a deep longing in the Lord’s heart for His people - especially His prophets - to ABIDE in the hidden place where He lives, which is high above earthly chaos; far above palaces, politics, and powers. 
Dear Friends, As I encountered the Lord in prayer today, I felt great encouragement in the Spirit. I could see the battles raging in the Spirit, yet I heard the Lord say that in these times of turmoil, those who LISTEN will hear His voice LOUDER and MORE CLEARLY than ever before. The enemy's warfare is substantial; even relentless. Yet I saw that believers who responded with INSTANT OBEDIENCE to the words, strategies, or instructions the Lord gave personally would find places of DEEP REST and SUSTAINED STRENGTH that were available no other way. 
Would you like a copy of this poem to use in ministry? We now have 5.5 x 8" Prayer Cards with the prophetic poem above (front) and teaching scriptures on "God's Role in Your Healing Process" (reverse). These are a wonderful tool to use as part of an inner healing ministry. Available in the His Inscriptions Store. 
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 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!
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!

Dear Friends, If you long to experience the depth of God's love for you this Passover season and cross over into the fullness of your appointed destiny in Christ, I invite you to join me Saturday April 20th for a special online event with Gary Beaton!* Gary is the Founder and President of Transformation Glory International. He has traveled extensively around the world preaching the gospel and bringing a life-changing message of the Father's heart, intimacy, and friendship with God. His passion is to prepare the Bride of Christ in purity for her soon-coming Bridegroom and to impact lives by the transforming power of the Holy Spirit. He’s well known for imparting a greater understanding of prophetic intercession, the reverential Fear of the Lord, and hearing the voice of God. After meeting Gary four years ago, I’ve come to know him and discover his beautiful heart for intimacy with God. He carries sharp prophetic discernment balanced by rare integrity of character which is much needed at this time. If you are hungry for more of God's Presence or desire greater intimacy in your relationship with the Father, please make plans to join us online that Saturday afternoon! Gary will speak on "Becoming a Friend of God" and we will make time during the webinar for questions and answers, prayer and impartation. *Note: WEBINAR HAS ENDED BUT REPLAY IS AVAILABLE ON SPOTIFY/APPLE PODCASTS HERE! 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 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
