I want for you to be unwavering. I need a people who are not willing to compromise Kingdom truth in order to fit with the current times and seasons. I am asking My bold, brave, truth-tellers to arise. I am asking them to stand for truth, justice, righteousness, and purity.

Even now, I am raising up those who will not compromise the truth of the gospel; those who will never compromise despite the pressures to submit to what is in this world. I am increasing your boldness. Bold truth-tellers arise!

Read Daniel 3, take time to allow Holy Spirit to bring deeper revelation to you as you read the scriptures with Him. Think about the cost Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego were willing to pay and the circumstances that they found themselves in. Take time to think about the outcome of their obedience and how God protected them. Allow Holy Spirit to speak to you through the scriptures and share His thoughts with you.

13 Then Nebuchadnezzar in a furious rage gave a command to bring Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego; and these men were brought before the king.

14 Nebuchadnezzar said to them, “Is it true, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, that you do not serve my gods or worship the golden image which I have set up?

15 Now if you are ready, when you hear the sound of the horn, pipe, lyre, trigon, harp, dulcimer, and all kinds of music, to fall down and worship the image which I have made, very good. But if you do not worship, you shall be thrown at once into the midst of a furnace of blazing fire; and what god is there who can rescue you out of my hands?”

Daniel 3:13-15 (AMP)

Dedicated Service

1 [a]Therefore I urge you, [b]brothers and sisters, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies [dedicating all of yourselves, set apart] as a living sacrifice, holy and well-pleasing to God, which is your rational (logical, intelligent) act of worship.

2 And do not be conformed to this world [any longer with its superficial values and customs], but be [c]transformed and progressively changed [as you mature spiritually] by the renewing of your mind [focusing on godly values and ethical attitudes], so that you may prove [for yourselves] what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect [in His plan and purpose for you].

    Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – My Winnowing Fork

    I am doing a sifting work on the earth, says the Lord. I have been gathering a new generation of believers, piece by piece, grain by grain in these last months. This generation will not only be the ones who know My Name or accept My salvation but they will burn with an unquenchable fire. I am raising up burning ones, Holy ones with a reverence for My Name.

    I am calling particularly those in the 15-22 year old bracket. I am calling them to a higher place of leadership. They will carry a unique and necessary spirit of excellence which will stand against all iniquity and neglect of truth. These young and mighty believers are necessary for the Church. I have commissioned them with My winnowing fork to separate the pure from the impure. They will carry a mantle of a raw flame that will be uncomfortable to many, but necessary for all. That flame will burn up impurity and call those around them to a higher level of Holiness and fear of the Lord! Bold truth tellers arise! Burning ones arise!

    Activation:

    If you are currently praying for fresh fire in your Church, pray for your Gen Z church members to lead and step into the call on their lives. Bless them to steward the mantle well.

    If you are currently praying for a young person to come to Christ, take heart! God has given you a fresh prayer to pray. Awaken the flame of desire for you in them, Lord.

    If you are 15-22, this is a partnership word. Ask God: “How do I steward my mantle of sifting through what is pure and impure?” How do I steward that with humility and boldness? Take time to listen, learn and submit. You are ready!

    His [a]winnowing fork is in His hand, and He will thoroughly clear out His threshing floor; and He will gather His wheat (believers) into His barn (kingdom), but He will burn up the chaff (the unrepentant) with unquenchable fire.”

    Matthew 3:12 (AMP)

    Footnotes

    [a] Matthew 3:12 A tool roughly resembling a pitchfork, used to separate grains of wheat from the chaff by throwing the wheat into the air, and allowing the wind to blow away the lighter chaff.

      He is ready to separate the chaff from the wheat with his winnowing fork. Then he will clean up the threshing area, gathering the wheat into his barn but burning the chaff with never-ending fire.”

      Matthew 3:12 (NLT)

      Beth.

      9 How can a young man keep his way pure?
      By keeping watch [on himself] according to Your word [conforming his life to Your precepts].

      10 With all my heart I have sought You, [inquiring of You and longing for You];
      Do not let me wander from Your commandments [neither through ignorance nor by willful disobedience].

      11 Your word I have treasured and stored in my heart,
      That I may not sin against You.

      12 Blessed and reverently praised are You, O LORD;
      Teach me Your statutes.

      Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – Refinement

      The Spirit of the Lord says you are entering a season of refinement. You have experienced stretching in the previous season. Watch now as My Spirit relights the fire that has been dormant within you. For you are entering a season of rediscovery and awakening. In this season you will hear the sound of My hammer on the anvil. Can you hear it even now in the spirit? Lean in and listen.

      Can you feel the angels bringing in new scrolls of destiny? This is your moment! Embrace it and claim all the wonderful possibilities that await you. There’s no time to waste! It is time now to receive the scrolls that I am releasing to you. It is time to lean into the Spirit and receive revelation from My throne room.

      Activation:

      Begin to engage with your spiritual sight and envision the hammer and anvil of the Lord! Lean into the spirit realm and listen. What sounds can you hear? Observe how He commissions angels to deliver scrolls of destiny to meet you where you are! What is written on the scrolls that God is releasing to you afresh today? Write down all of the revelation that the Lord shares with you.

      Prayer:

      “Father, in the name of Jesus Christ, I thank You for the season of divine refinement.Where I was stretched, let me now be strengthened.I receive the fire that forms, not destroys. I receive the scrolls of destiny that You are releasing into my life.Awaken my ears to hear the hammer on the anvil. Let me feel the weight of Your presence and the call to holiness. Remove every distraction, every delay, and every deception.

      I declare:

      • I will move quickly in obedience.
      • I will partner with Heaven’s blueprint.
      • I will partner with You in all You ask.
      • Refine me. Reignite me. Recommission me, for You and You alone.

      In Jesus Christ’s Name, amen.”

      “Indeed, I have refined you, but not as [a]silver;
      I have tested and chosen you in the furnace of affliction.

        Habakkuk 2:2

        How do you plan your goals?

        God Answers the Prophets

        1 I will stand at my guard post
        And station myself on the tower;
        And I will keep watch to see what He will say to me,
        And what answer I will give [as His spokesman] when I am reproved.

        2 Then the LORD answered me and said,
        “Write the vision
        And engrave it plainly on [clay] tablets
        So that the one who reads it will run.

        3 “For the vision is yet for the appointed [future] time
        It hurries toward the goal [of fulfillment]; it will not fail.
        Even though it delays, wait [patiently] for it,
        Because it will certainly come; it will not delay.

        Habakkuk 2:1-3 (AMP)

        On reading today’s Prompt, the verse that immediately came to mind was Habakkuk 2:2. If one has a goal, the best way to start is by writing it down. This makes it plain and gives it structure and timelines. It also makes it possible to think about anything that could change what you plan to do.

        An example of this, is the management of a project. When doing this, thought has to be given to key stages, which are: initiation, planning, execution, monitoring, controlling and closure.

        Most things can be treated as a project. In fact, life itself can be treated as a project. Many like to have a structure to what they plan to do generally, day-to-day, or as a five year (or more) plan. I, myself, have tried to create structure over the years but have done so under my own strength. Plans have, therefore, fallen by the wayside, and resulted to nothing.

        Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keepeth the law, happy is he.

        Proverbs 29:18 (KJV)

        An individual needs to have a vision, purpose or direction. It has always been the cry of man’s heart to know the meaning of life. This is whether it be on an individual basis, just for them to feel the result, or if it is on a wider scale where the change is made for a community, organisation or even the world. When milestones are met, it can be so fulfilling.

        The Holy Bible was written over a span of two millenia. We are able to learn and receive from men and women who lived their lives for God. They were people like you and me. The pages of the 66 books, were the outpouring of prophets, priests, doctors, scholars, fishermen and more. From what we read we learn about God, His Son and the move of the Holy Spirit; what He did then and what He does now. He changeth not! It is from the writings so many years ago, that we are able to know the future; what God’s plans for us are.

        For I know the plans  and  thoughts that I have for you,’ says the Lord, ‘plans for peace  and well-being and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.

        Jeremiah 29:11 (AMP)

        As a Christian, you are nothing without placing God at the forefront of all you do and all you plan to do.

        For me, now is a plan/time for change!

        Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – Throw Off the Grave Clothes

        Beloved, Hear My voice calling. I’m calling you up and out from the place of containment and confinement. Allow My word of life to resonate through your very being. I am reordering and aligning some neuropathways that have become a hindrance to your movement. I am bringing freedom where your decision making capacity has been hindered, held captive by fear and anxiety. Feel the weight of My love shift you into a place of ease and clarity. I am removing what is old and stale. I am lifting the heaviness from you.

        This is the day to allow the things that carry a smell of death and decay to be left behind. The old garments cannot come with you to where I am leading you. Today I release life over you. I have new garments for you to wear that will equip you for the days to come. I am unravelling the garments you have chosen to wear. I am also unravelling the garments that have wrongfully been put on to you that have hindered you for far too long. Allow Me to clothe you again, to cleanse and purify you. Throw off the grave clothes and put on what is rightfully yours.

        Activation:

        Ask Holy Spirit to show you where you are wearing old garments from past seasons. Allow yourself to meet with Holy Spirit in this place as you work together to allow him to unravel the old garments from around you. Ask Him what you were wearing and what He wants to clothe you with in its place? Ask Him why He is clothing you in the new garments for the season ahead.

        43 When He had said this, He shouted with a loud voice, “Lazarus, come out!”

        44 Out came the man who had been dead, his hands and feet tightly wrapped in burial cloths (linen strips), and with a [burial] cloth wrapped around his face. Jesus said to them, “Unwrap him and release him.”

        John 11:43-44 (AMP)

        I will rejoice greatly in the LORD,
        My soul will exult in my God;
        For He has clothed me with garments of salvation,
        He has covered me with a robe of righteousness,
        As a bridegroom puts on a [a]turban,
        And as a bride adorns herself with her jewels.

        Take some time to pray:

        “Father, I receive Your delight in me. I am not overlooked. I am not abandoned. I am not second best. I am chosen, cherished, and celebrated in heaven. I silence every voice that says otherwise. I silence the spirit of shame that has tried to weigh me down with lies. I hear Your words echo over my life: ‘I am so proud of you.’ I repent for every time I’ve doubted Your affection or tried to earn Your approval. Today, I rest in the truth that I am fully accepted, fully wanted, fully Yours. In the Name of Jesus Christ, I receive the truth that You are proud of me. Let my life be rooted in the revelation that I am Your beloved child in whom You delight. In Jesus’ Name, amen.

        “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you [and approved of you as My chosen instrument],
        And before you were born I consecrated you [to Myself as My own];
        I have appointed you as a prophet to the nations.”

        15 My frame was not hidden from You,
        When I was being formed in secret,
        And intricately and skillfully formed [as if embroidered with many colors] in the depths of the earth.

        16 Your eyes have seen my unformed substance;
        And in Your book were all written
        The days that were appointed for me,

        It is time to pick up the things that have been discarded and forgotten. A time to remember the dreams and the words that I have given you. There is a deeper level of fulfilment coming in this season. I am bringing a fresh charge into boldly chasing after Me and My promises.

        I see places where hope deferred has led to disappointment and dullness. I can see that you were once excited by the things of the Kingdom but now they feel dull. Today I am breaking off discouragement and hope deferred. I am releasing you into a freedom to have Zeal for My house and the Kingdom once again. I now call you into the place of pushing forward in faith with excitement refreshed for the things ahead.

        Reach out to Me and touch the hem of My garment in faith. Know that I will never let My Word return void to you. I am refreshing weariness and restoring hope to you today.

        Activation:

        And do not return there without watering the earth,
        Making it bear and sprout,

        11 So will My word be which goes out of My mouth;
        It will not return to Me void (useless, without result),

        And without succeeding in the matter for which I sent it.

        15 And if we know [for a fact, as indeed we do] that He hears and listens to us in whatever we ask, we [also] know [with settled and absolute knowledge] that we have [granted to us] the requests which we have asked from Him.

        Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – I Am Watching Over You

        As a shepherd watches over his flock, I too watch over you. I watch your coming and your goings. I care deeply about the places in which I have positioned you. Don’t you know that I, the Lord Your God, am the one who positions you. I have repositioned many of you and you have known what it looks like to live a life laid down, dying to yourself and living for Me alone.

        I position you with power and authority. I have made no mistake in placing you in the areas and locations that I have. Do not doubt that I am the One who has placed you exactly where I needed you to be to serve My Kingdom purpose and My agenda in the earth realm at this time. Remember that you are in partnership with Me and when you feel out of My timings or out of alignment with Me I want you to come directly to Me.

        I know you deeply, every movement and every moment you encounter but still I want you to come to Me for a heart to heart connection and to allow My Spirit to lead and guide you in all you do. This is a time of togetherness with Me and  deeper connection.  The cost is high in this season and you have been willing to count the cost and pay it dearly.

        I am forever with you. Mark My words I am with you always! Do not stray from the path I have placed you on. Do not move out of My will but continue to walk in the ways I am leading and guiding you in. Do not give up when the positioning becomes painful. I will strengthen you and give you everything you need to stand firm and to not be shaken from the positions I have given you.

        Activation:

        Take a moment to pause and reflect on the assignments that God has asked you to complete in this season. Ask Him whether you are positioned where He wants you to be. If you feel you are not or haven’t been obedient to His leading and guiding, take time to repent and ask Him to release to you the next steps of what He wants from you at this time. If you are positioned where He has asked you to be then take time to stand upright, firmly aware of your feet planted in Him and on Him.

        Reflect on what your current assignment is. What has God asked you to partner with Him in? Where are you positioned and what the purpose is? Allow Holy Spirit to meet with you in this space. He may wish to remind you of the reasons you are where you are. He may wish to encourage you or engage you in conversation. Allow yourself to be led in whatever direction Holy Spirit takes you.

        14 I am the Good Shepherd, and I know [without any doubt those who are] My own and My own know Me [and have a deep, personal relationship with Me]—

        15 even as the Father knows Me and I know the Father—and I lay down My [very own] life [sacrificing it] for the benefit of the sheep.

        John 10:14-15 (AMP)

        Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – The Belt of Truth

        My Warriors, I am securing you in My words in these coming days so that you will not be shaken by the circumstances around you. I want for you to set your face like flint and to be firmly rooted in Me and Me alone. I want nothing of mixture to mislead you.

        I want you to know My voice so deeply and to be able to discern anything of distraction or deception in these days so that nothing is able to lead you astray. I am asking you to wield your weapons and to be fully equipped with every piece of armour I give you. Armour for your protection but also for the protection of those in your care.

        You must ready yourself and steady yourself in Me and Me alone. What does it look like to be fully secure, and secured in Me? What does the belt of Truth securing you at your very core feel like? Does it feel sturdy and safe? The belt of Truth is an anchor point, it is a secure position to hold you firm and to keep you safe.

        I ask you to wrap the truth of My Word around everything that you are and everything that you do. Be secured in My Words and so sure of the truth that it holds you firmly in these days, and you can do the same for those around you. I will keep you safe and secure in these days, Hold fast to the Truth and let nothing of deception lead you astray.

        Activation:

        Meditate on the following Scripture. Take time to think about the significance of the armour God gives us and why it is so important in the coming days to know how to live and breathe in our armour daily. Take time to meditate on the belt of truth, the security of truth around your waist holding you up and holding you in position. Where do you or others in your life or in the world need the belt of truth to hold and secure them, spend time praying into whatever Holy Spirit brings to mind. Remember in God’s truth, You are secured and you are safe.

        11 Put on the full armor of God [for His precepts are like the splendid armor of a heavily-armed soldier], so that you may be able to [successfully] stand up against all the schemes and the strategies and the deceits of the devil.

        12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood [contending only with physical opponents], but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this [present] darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly (supernatural) places.

        13 Therefore, put on the complete armor of God, so that you will be able to [successfully] resist and stand your ground in the evil day [of danger], and having done everything [that the crisis demands], to stand firm [in your place, fully prepared, immovable, victorious].

        14 So stand firm and hold your ground, having [a]tightened the wide band of truth (personal integrity, moral courage) around your waist and having put on the breastplate of righteousness (an upright heart),

        15 and having [b]strapped on your feet the gospel of peace in preparation [to face the enemy with firm-footed stability and the readiness produced by the good news].

        16 Above all, lift up the [protective] [c]shield of faith with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one.

        17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God.

        18 With all prayer and petition pray [with specific requests] at all times [on every occasion and in every season] in the Spirit, and with this in view, stay alert with all perseverance and petition [interceding in prayer] for all [d]God’s people.

        19 And pray for me, that words may be given to me when I open my mouth, to proclaim boldly the mystery of the good news [of salvation],

        20 for which I am an ambassador in chains. And pray that in proclaiming it I may speak boldly and courageously, as I should.

        [a] Ephesians 6:14 Lit girded your loins, a phrase often found in the Bible, is an urgent call to get ready for immediate action or a coming event. The phrase is related to the type of clothing worn in ancient times. Before any vigorous activity the loose ends of clothing (tunics, cloaks, mantles, etc.) had to be gathered up and tucked into the wide band worn around the midsection of the body. The band (usually about six inches wide) also served as a kind of pocket or pouch to carry personal items such as a dagger, money or other necessary things. Gird up your mind or gird up your heart are examples of variants of this phrase and call for mental or spiritual preparation for a coming challenge.

        [b] Ephesians 6:15 A reference to the Roman soldiers’ shoes which were studded with hobnails to give them stability on the battlefield.

        [c] Ephesians 6:16 Here the Greek word refers to the large Roman soldiers’ shield designed to protect the entire body. It had an iron frame and was covered in several layers of leather. When soaked in water before a battle the shield could put out the fiery missiles thrown at them by the enemy.

        [d] Ephesians 6:18 Lit the saints.
