Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – Resources of Heaven

As you take hold of the vision I have placed before you, do not be distracted by earthly preparations for I do not prepare you as the world would. I am not filling your bag but emptying it. Why? Because your dependency is on nothing but Me.

I am your provider; do not wait for earthly finances to stack up. Rather, be ready to step out with only what you have in the moment, in full expectation that I will meet your needs.

Do not wait until you’ve achieved a worldly position. It is I that opens doors for you; it is I who releases the favour you need. I have given you more authority than this world has to offer and I will make the way for you.

Do not wait to be impressive in the eyes of man or desire to be clothed in status, for I have already seated you in the heavenly places;  what higher standing could you have?

The powers of darkness fear what I have called you to and they seek to slow you down by gathering the wrong things. The world will weigh you down but I will lighten your load, highlight your path and open the way before you.

Activation:

Sit with Holy Spirit and ask Him how you have been preparing. What is His work and what is a distraction sent to weigh you down. Where are you stockpiling the things of this earth and what does He want you to do instead?

14 But thanks be to God, who always leads us in triumph in Christ, and through us spreads and makes evident everywhere the sweet fragrance of the knowledge of Him.

15 For we are the sweet fragrance of Christ [which ascends] to God, [discernible both] among those who are being saved and among those who are perishing;

2 Corinthians 2:14-15 (AMP)

9 Do not take gold, or silver, or [even] copper money in your money belt,

10 or a provision bag for your journey, or even two tunics, or sandals, or a staff; for the worker deserves his support.

Matthew 10:9-10 (AMP)

Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – Patience in the Waiting

My child, I see you. I see your inner struggle of waiting for Me to move and to answer your prayers. But I am not going to do it like you think. Keep your gaze fixed on Me, because I am using this time to transform you.

I do not move like the world does. My timings are not the same as the world. I am using this time to fine-tune and train you. So, step back and take a deep breath. My desire is to release patience like you’ve never experienced before so you may navigate this season with strength and understanding.

Do not get caught up in hurry for I am using this time to realign and readjust you into My timing. Do you understand that I am never anxious or worried? Trust Me when I say that I am never late!

Activation:

Make a list of things you are waiting for and then lay it before the Lord in surrender to Him. Declare: “Not my will, but Your will be done.” As you do this, allow His peace to wash over you.

But if we hope for what we do not see, we wait eagerly for it with patience and composure.

Romans 8:25 (AMP)

Wait for and confidently expect the LORD;
Be strong and let your heart take courage;
Yes, wait for and confidently expect the LORD.

Psalm 27:14 (AMP)

Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – Stained to Splendor

It’s wedding season, and God is calling you His bride; confident, radiant, and deeply desired. He isn’t ashamed of you. In fact, He takes delight in the way you’ve responded to His invitation to come close. Even the messy, hidden parts of your life – the thoughts, habits, and shame no one else sees – He has gently cleansed.

Just like Esther went through a process of preparation before standing before the king, you’ve been walking through your own season of becoming. You’ve been purified. You’ve been transformed. But maybe you still look in the mirror and see someone unworthy.

The Lord says, “That’s not how I see you. When you speak badly about yourself, I hear it as if you’re criticizing someone I deeply love. I want to show you a different mirror, one that reflects Jesus. This doesn’t erase who you are; it reveals the real you that I made new.

You’re not a clone. You’re not a disappointment. You’re a masterpiece with a new spirit… My Spirit. Put on confidence like a wedding dress. Walk like someone who is fully loved, fully known, and fully accepted. I am waiting for you to believe what I already see.

Application:

Stand in front of a mirror and say out loud, “I am radiant because God cleansed me. I am loved because God demonstrated his love for me. I am new because God put His Spirit in me.” Do this as many times as needed until you can feel yourself accepting this truth.

Moving forward, when the voices of shame rise up, ask God to help you see yourself the way He does. Speak words of life over yourself, especially when your thoughts want to tear you down. Let those truths reshape how you live, walk, and speak.

26 so that He might sanctify the church, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word [of God],

27 so that [in turn] He might present the church to Himself in glorious splendor, without spot or wrinkle or any such thing; but that she would be holy [set apart for God] and blameless.

Ephesians 5:26-27 (AMP)

And we all, with unveiled face, continually seeing as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are progressively being transformed into His image from [one degree of] glory to [even more] glory, which comes from the Lord, [who is] the Spirit.

2 Corinthians 3:18 (AMP)

Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – Conquer New Ground

The Spirit of the Lord says:

Don’t believe the enemy whispering that nothing has changed after all. I am calling you individually and as a community to stand and conquer new ground for the enhancement of My Kingdom. Rise up, My people and steward whatever lands I will call you to.

Come to Me and ask to understand what the enemy is doing. For he is already defeated and My strategies will allow you to preempt any snare. So ask Me for discernment, wisdom and an Issachar anointing to gain territory in My Kairos moment. This is not spiritual warfare as it was in previous seasons; you need cutting-edge skills and refined weapons, which I will provide. That is why constant interaction and cooperation with Me is needed now more than ever.

Moreover, as you come and celebrate the victory after each battle, make sure you find time to rest in Me. Come into My presence to be refreshed and empowered. Then go again, for the harvest is plentiful.

Activation:

Find time to pray in tongues and stay in God’s presence, either individually or as a group. Ask Him what’s on His mind and how you can serve Him for the advancement of the Kingdom. Receive the details of the blueprint and write them down. Then continue to pray for timing and thank the Lord for His victory. Remember that worship can be very powerful spiritual warfare.

The Seventy Sent Out

1 Now after this the Lord appointed [a]seventy others, and sent them out ahead of Him, two by two, into every city and place where He was about to go.

2 He was saying to them, “The harvest is abundant [for there are many who need to hear the good news about salvation], but the workers [those available to proclaim the message of salvation] are few. Therefore, [prayerfully] ask the Lord of the harvest to send out workers into His harvest.

3 Go your way; listen carefully: I am sending you out like lambs among wolves.

Luke 10:1-3 (AMP)

Footnotes

[a] Luke 10:1 One ancient ms reads seventy-two.

The name of the Lord is a strong tower;
The righteous runs to it and is safe and set on high [far above evil].

Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – Colour Outside the Lines

Right now, I am asking My people to push beyond the lines which surround them. When I look at many of My beloved ones, I see them carefully relying upon four or five of the same crayons, carefully keeping within the lines on the page before them. But at this time, I am breaking off limitation and containment as I encourage My people to colour outside the lines!

It is a day to recognize that many of the things which hold you in place and stop you from pushing further are not of Me. It is not My intention to keep My people boxed up and tucked away. But there are false limitations and containment that many of My beloved ones are living under. It is My passion to see these lines of containment pulled away and people pulled afresh into a space of possibility and freedom.

Push beyond the lines that surround you; why settle for 4 crayons when I have a whole box for you to play and create with! Come and play with Me, the one who loves and delights in you. Let Me reawaken your wonder and curiosity as we push beyond what has been and into something new.

Activation:

Ask Holy Spirit to show you where there are lines or boxes of limitation active in your life. Perhaps it’s a label that has been placed on you, how you define your purpose, or a lie that was planted long ago. With the revelation that Holy Spirit reveals to you, spend some time in prayer to break any partnership you have made with these limiting beliefs (both intentionally and unintentionally). Then, envision yourself colouring. Ask Holy Spirit what new colour there is for you to play with. Why that colour? Spend some time in prayer and thanksgiving for God’s care and love for you.

Scene in Heaven

2 At once I was in [special communication with] the Spirit; and behold, a throne stood in heaven, with One seated on the throne.

3 And He who sat there appeared like [the crystalline sparkle of] [a]a jasper stone and [the fiery redness of] a sardius stone, and encircling the throne there was a rainbow that looked like [the color of an] emerald.

Revelation 4:2-3 (AMP)

Footnotes

[a] Revelation 4:3 In antiquity this name was given to various kinds and colors of precious stones, while the sardius was a reddish stone. The gems are indicative of royalty.

Out of my distress I called on the LORD;
The LORD answered me and set me free.

Lion Bites  – Global Prophetic Alliance – Above the Clouds

My people, many of you are rightly filled with expectation to see long awaited answers to prayer and promises fulfilled. Dreams and visions which have been held in the hearts of My sons and daughters for many years are about to be realised in these days.

There is a divine grace to transition as you discover and embrace the alignments and assignments that I have for you. In all of this, I am aware that the days ahead, for some of you, may still be uncertain and uncomfortable as you adapt and stretch to take hold of the new.

Just as a plane takes off for a predetermined destination, often it must first navigate turbulent bumps and poor visibility that come with low lying clouds. In those moments, the pilot is never deterred but understands that as he continues to ascend, the temporary but necessary discomfort will pass, and that visibility will return.

Do not allow the unsettling of transition to cause you to doubt or look back, even for a moment. Take captive every thought which would cause you to second guess or feed fear and anxiety and replace them with Truth. I say to you, there is increased capacity and fresh strength for the new.

Trust wholeheartedly in Me. I know where I am taking you and My plans will unfold.

Determine in your heart to press on in faith and take hold of all that I have for you giving thanks and praise for what is to come.

Activation:

Spend time in the Lord’s presence and remind yourself what you’re believing for in this next season. What answers to prayer or dreams/ prophecy are you expecting to see fulfilled? If you’re stepping into “the new” (workplace, relationships, church, ministry or geographical location) and are experiencing doubts and fear, spend time bringing these to the Lord in prayer and receive His peace. Write out 4 or 5 declarations based on your promises and speak them out daily to help build faith and strength.

11 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.

12 Then you will call on Me and you will come and pray to Me, and I will hear [your voice] and I will listen to you.

13 Then [with a deep longing] you will seek Me and require Me [as a vital necessity] and [you will] find Me when you search for Me with all your heart.

Jeremiah 29:11-13 (AMP)

13 [a]Brothers and sisters, I do not consider that I have made it my own yet; but one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and reaching forward to what lies ahead,

14 I press on toward the goal to win the [heavenly] prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.

Give Me a Sign: How to Recognize God’s Direction for Your Life|Ep.149

Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – Know Who You Are

My Beloved, many of you are emerging from an extended season of testing and preparation. I am proud of the long-suffering and faithfulness you have displayed during this time which has allowed Me to forge in you the character you need to carry your call. Where there have been degrees of hiddenness up to now, be assured that I am about to bring you out of the shadows and divinely endorse your life for the sake of the Kingdom and My glory.

Remember how I chose Aaron and his family to do the work of the priest, miraculously causing his staff, which was nothing but dead wood, to yield buds, blossoms and ripe almonds.  My People, you are entering into days of greater authority and leadership with unprecedented fruitfulness that will be seen by many.  You must continue to remain in the vine and place your confidence and security in who you are in Me. Apart from Me, you can do nothing.

If you remain in Me, not only will there be much fruit for the Kingdom, but it will silence the naysayers who would want to complain and undermine. When opposition comes, remind yourself that you are chosen and appointed to bear fruit. Do not allow the opinions of man to intimidate or define you.

Remember who you belong to. You are Mine.  Declare over your life ‘I am loved, I am chosen, I know who I am, I know what God has spoken’.

Application:

Read through Numbers Chapter 18 (AMP). Ask the Lord if there are any areas of your life that still need pruning to prepare for the days of increased fruitfulness. Specifically, is He bringing new friendships or alignments that will bring fresh grace and strength for the days ahead?  Are there any relationships which now must come to an end?  Ask the Lord for wisdom as to how to be obedient to what He shows you and for the timing.

Dwell in Me, and I will dwell in you. [Live in Me, and I will live in you.] Just as no branch can bear fruit of itself without abiding in (being vitally united to) the vine, neither can you bear fruit unless you abide in Me.

John 15:4 (AMPC)

You have not chosen Me, but I have chosen you and I have appointed you [I have planted you], that you might go and bear fruit and keep on bearing, and that your fruit may be lasting [that it may remain, abide], so that whatever you ask the Father in My Name [as [a]presenting all that I Am], He may give it to you.

John 15:16 (AMPC)
