Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – Waiting on My Timing

My child I see you, I see your energy, your willingness, your zeal for My cause. I see that you are eager to put into action what is on your heart. However, there is a time for everything. My timing is key! I know when it is good to speak up! I know when it is time to act upon the plans I have given you. I know when it is better to keep waiting and continue talking with Me instead. I need you to be tuned to Me alone and to My timings.

Therefore, stay close to Me and listen well to My voice and to My directions. It is still true that My vision awaits the appointed time and it will surely come to pass even if it seems slow. So wait patiently for My appointed time, and you will see the visions and plans I have put on your heart come through.

Activation:

Sit with God and write down all your plans, activities and intentions. Place them all into God’s hands. Let Him sift through them to show you what is from Himself and what is from you. Let Him direct your steps and guide you in His timing for each activity within the next few days and weeks. Ask Him daily “what do You want me to do with my day today” let Him lead and guide you day by day.

Everything Has Its Time

To everything there is a season,
A time for every purpose under heaven:

Ecclesiastes 3:1 (AMP)

Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – Illuminating Light

I saw an ancient city which was built on top of a hill. The surrounding area was dark, but there was light shining brightly through its windows, and this light illuminated the area surrounding it.

I heard the Lord speak:

Know that I have made you to be a city upon a hill, that I Myself have formed you that you may shine forth My light into this world. I am calling you individually and collectively, to come with lamps that are ready and filled. To come with an expectancy and an eager desire to shine forth My light. This is a time to be ready and a time to be prepared. It is a time to go forth, revealing the fullness of who I am to the people around you. I am calling My people to come to action, to go forth and to share that light.

For I Myself have shone My light upon you and from that place  I desire you to go and share that light with others. For through you My light will shine into the lives of others, bringing forth freedom, bringing forth victory. You will bring forth a renewed safety within Me, knowing that I am the God Almighty, and that I go with you in everything.

Activation:

Spend time with God, asking Him where He has positioned you at this time, so that you may shine His light in that place. Ask for ways in which He desires you to reveal His light to those around you.

“You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden.

Matthew 5:14 (NKJV)

Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – Joy is Coming!

My child, I am renewing your joy. I know that you’re looking around and seeing yourself surrounded by devastation, pain, and shame. But I, the Lord Your God, have a better word. I have a better report. Lift up your eyes, My child, and see the joy I have placed beyond the current circumstances.

For I have not called you to endure with no hope of relief. I have first set My joy before you to motivate you and give you courage to endure till the end. Remember that those who sow in tears will come back with songs of joy bringing in the bountiful harvest.

Now take courage and press forward towards the joy that I have said before you.

Activation:

As a prophetic act, hold your arms out in front of you as if carrying a large box of harvest grains, fruit and vegetables. Thank the Lord for giving you joy that the harvest will come.

He who goes back and forth weeping, carrying his bag of seed [for planting],
Will indeed come again with a shout of joy, bringing his sheaves with him.

Psalm 126:6 (AMP

Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – I Have Heard Your Cries

I have heard your cries of “Here I am, send me!” You have cried out and I have heard, says the Lord. You have been through a season of preparation and the time is now. I am sending you out. You have been sharpened and refined through a season of fire.

Will I not provide for you? I will provide exceedingly beyond measure and I will walk with you, says the Lord! You have not asked amiss. I will provide abundantly for you as you are sent out to do my will. You will experience great joy, says the Lord, and you will see much fruit!

Activation:

Continue to sit in His presence and draw near to Him. Know that He will supply all that you need.

28 Do you not know? Have you not heard?
The Everlasting God, the LORD, the Creator of the ends of the earth
Does not become tired or grow weary;
There is no searching of His understanding.

29 He gives strength to the weary,
And to him who has no might He increases power.

Isaiah 40:28-29 (AMP)

Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – Shine Your Light

My people, in these days of increasing darkness, I exhort you to let your let shine like never before. This is not an optional extra or good idea. My Son, Jesus, came to earth to live as ‘the Light of the world’. Everywhere He went, the darkness was expelled. The powers of darkness cannot remain in the light. Just as Jesus proclaimed He was ‘the Light of the world’, this must be the posture of your heart, the declaration of your mouth and the mindset by which you choose to live.

You have the very light of Christ on the inside of you, but many of you still hide it, even in your family, through uncertainty, intimidation and fear. Instead, you must humble yourself before Me, deal with fear of man and ask for a spirit of the fear of the Lord to overtake you.

To let your light shine is also inextricably linked to loving people well. Be Christ-like as you take every opportunity to demonstrate kindness and good deeds in practical ways, to proclaim truth and push back darkness as you stand up for what is right. The world is in desperate need. You, however, have everything you need within you – the very life and light of Christ – to live a life full of virtue and power such that darkness cannot remain. These are Isaiah 60 days when you must now rise and let your light shine for all to see.

Activation:

Prayerfully ask the Lord to reveal if you have been hiding your light ‘under a basket’? Are there family members who intimidate you and cause you to withhold? Do you need to appropriately make a stand in the workplace? There is no condemnation, but the Lord wants to encourage you to repent of any fear of man and ask Him for fresh boldness and courage. Ask Holy Spirit to give you opportunities this week (even one) to let your light shine in a new way.

14 “You are the light of [Christ to] the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden; 15 nor does anyone light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house. 16 Let your light shine before men in such a way that they may see your good deeds and moral excellence, and [recognize and honor and] glorify your Father who is in heaven.

Matthew 5:14-16 (AMP)

A Glorified Zion

1 “Arise [from spiritual depression to a new life], shine [be radiant with the glory and brilliance of the Lord]; for your light has come,
And the glory and brilliance of the Lord has risen upon you.

2 “For in fact, darkness will cover the earth
And deep darkness will cover the peoples;
But the Lord will rise upon you [Jerusalem]
And His glory and brilliance will be seen on you.

3 “Nations will come to your light,
And kings to the brightness of your rising.

Isaiah 60:1-3 (AMP)

Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – Fierce Fires

I hear your cry, says the Lord, to burn brightly in this world of darkness. Will you allow Me to add fuel to your fire so that you will burn fiercely? In this ‘burning’ I will refine you, getting rid of false assumptions, cultural compromises and your past. All the rubbish and lies which lead you astray along ‘dead ends’ will be destroyed.

Will you let Me do this? I will not burn you but you will be made pure to carry My Word, to speak with clarity and love. Remember the burning bush was not consumed and neither were Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego in the furnace.

You are My beloved one, the apple of My eye and more precious to Me than gold. As others observe you in this process they will be drawn by your obedience, they will draw close to look again and they will find Me. Your obedience will open doors to their hearts and minds.

Activation:

As a daily discipline, ask Holy Spirit to highlight idols in your life which have priority over time with Him. Take time to listen well, and prayerfully consider the revelation. Are you willing to repent, to set this ‘thing’ aside for the joy of His purity in your life. This is a testing time but only such a time produces a testimony to capture the hearts and minds of others. Physically take this ‘idol’ off your body and put it on God’s altar as a sacrifice asking God to send His consuming fire.

So Moses said, “I must turn away [from the flock] and see this great sight—why the bush is not burned up.”

Exodus 3:3 (AMP)

He answered, “Look! I see four men untied, walking around in the midst of the fire, and they are not hurt! And the appearance of the fourth is like a son of the gods!”

Daniel 3:25 (AMP)

“The LORD your God is in your midst,
A Warrior who saves.
He will rejoice over you with joy;
He will be quiet in His love [making no mention of your past sins],
He will rejoice over you with shouts of joy.

Zephaniah 3:17 (AMP)

Lion Bites  – Global Prophetic Alliance – Submit to the Waiting

Many of you find yourselves in the uncomfortable space of waiting, says the Lord. Something has ended but the new has not yet begun. Healing is needed but not yet fulfilled. Finances are at breaking point, and it seems no rescue has come. This is no mistake, for I am in the midst of preparing a people for a season that will require greater strength and stamina than ever before.

Yet many have not inquired of My Spirit. Instead, they have resisted the season and sought escape from the tension. But there is a submission that must happen here. In the waiting, strength is forged. In the heaviness, resilience is formed.

The weight of this place is not random—it is highly strategic and deeply intentional. It is My kindness and mercy that holds you in the waiting, for without it, you would not be equipped for the days ahead. So I invite you once again: submit to the weight in the waiting, that you might arise as My glorious strength upon the earth.

Activation:

Ask the Holy Spirit to reveal where you have resisted the season of waiting. Invite Him to show you how He is building strength, endurance, and faith in this place. Choose to bless the waiting instead of resenting it, declaring that His timing is perfect.

Prayer:

Lord, I repent for the times I have resisted or despised the waiting. I submit afresh to Your timing, trusting that Your ways are perfect. Forgive me for seeking escape instead of leaning into Your Spirit. Build in me the strength, stamina, and resilience I will need for the days ahead. I embrace the weight in the waiting, and I declare that Your mercy is holding me steady. In Jesus’ name, amen.

But those who wait for the LORD [who expect, look for, and hope in Him]
Will gain new strength and renew their power;
They will lift up their wings [and rise up close to God] like eagles [rising toward the sun];
They will run and not become weary,
They will walk and not grow tired.

Isaiah 40:31 (AMP)

2 Consider it nothing but joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you fall into various trials.

3 Be assured that the testing of your faith [through experience] produces endurance [leading to spiritual maturity, and inner peace].

4 And let endurance have its perfect result and do a thorough work, so that you may be perfect and completely developed [in your faith], lacking in nothing.

James 1:2-4 (AMP)
