Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – The Glory of Kings

“Today I call many of you into fresh movement. It’s been a while since we sat together and spoke about your life, work, home, friendships, church, communities and mission,” says the Spirit of the Lord.

“You have been obedient to what I called you to do. Now it is time to dwell with Me again, to listen to Me again. For it is the glory of kings to search out divine revelation.

The season ahead requires you to be where I call you. I need My people to move into the places I am calling you to – new job roles, new homes, even new locations.  Don’t worry, I will give you the desire to move. Come sit with Me and listen once more.” 

Activation:

Today read Genesis 32:22-32 and reflect on how Jacob wrestled with God and gained blessing. Then read Genesis 18:16-33 to see how Abraham negotiated with God. Lay before the Lord every area of your life, then ask Yahweh if He wants anything to change or if He is pleased with where you are. Let God know what you desire and ask Him if it is what He desires. Come to a decision together, for God is inviting you to the negotiating table. Then be obedient, and walk out the commands of the Lord.

It is the glory of God to conceal a matter,
But the glory of kings is to search out a matter.

Proverbs 25:2 (AMP)

Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – No Longer Orphans

“I, the Lord, speak directly to your heart. You are not an orphan, My little one. You have a heavenly Father who loves you deeply, beyond anything you could imagine. I need you to come out of agreement with the enemy, and his countless lies on this matter,” says the Spirit of the Lord.

“I Am that I Am. I went to Sheol to secure your sonship. Adam’s sin brought the separation. That’s why I corrected it. I pulled you from darkness into My marvellous light, and called you Mine.

Use the spiritual weapons I have given you to silence the enemy once and for all. Because when you know who you are, and who your Father is, we will do mighty exploits together.

Never doubt that I love you, and yearn for you. To be in constant communion and tightly entwined in your life. That is why I sent My Son to die for your sins. So I could bring you back to Me as My child. For you are part of My family, My beautiful child.”

Activation:

Find a place to spend time with Father God. It could be outside, or somewhere in your home, where you can pour out any feelings of abandonment and despair. Ask your heavenly Father to bring total healing to your heart. Allow Him to walk you through the process of putting your identity in Him. Let God do the work.

“I will not leave you as orphans [comfortless, bereaved, and helpless]; I will come [back] to you.

John 14:18 (AMP)

Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – Place Your Hand in Mine

My hand is empty so that your hand may be placed in it.

I seek fellowship, but you hesitate.

I seek closeness, but you give only parts of yourselves.

I long to transform you, but you resist change.

See My hand lying open before you, scar-marked for you.

Take My hand now, and I will heal you and lead you.

I am no stranger; you see Me in My Word.

I am the Word, and what I have promised I remain faithful to.

You need to place your hand in Mine and trust Me.

It is time for distance to end and for friendship to begin.

Activation:

Look in the spirit and see Yahweh before you. Notice His mighty hand stretched out, waiting for you. Breath deep, reach out and take hold of God’s hand. Feel the courage flow from Him to you. Ask God how He would like you to be a friend to Him.

“For I the Lord your God keep hold of your right hand; [I am the Lord],
Who says to you, ‘Do not fear, I will help you.’

Isaiah 41:13 (AMP)

1 Peter 5:10 ~ He will Refine You

After you have suffered for a little while, the God of all grace [who imparts His blessing and favor], who called you to His own eternal glory in Christ, will Himself complete, confirm, strengthen, and establish you [making you what you ought to be].

Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – Time to Sow

I saw the Lord gathering people into His arms. As I watched in the spirit, the Lord poured seeds into their cupped hands. As the seeds filled their hands, tears filled their eyes and they started to weep.

I hear the people’s hearts cry, “There’s a famine, Lord! How can we sow in a famine? There is a drought of forgiveness, peace, justice, and equality. How can we sow your seeds at this time?”

“I am gathering you close to My heart,” says the Spirit of the Lord.”

“I Am the Lord, who gives seed to the sower.”

I Am the Lord, who causes a hundredfold harvest in times of famine.”

I Am the Lord, who keeps His promises.”

“I Am the Lord who commands you – Sow where I tell you to plant.”

“I command the time of planting and the time of harvest. Even if you sow in tears, I will lead you to reap with songs of joy. Carry My seeds faithfully. Sow where I show you, build where I tell you to build, and you will return with songs of joy, carrying a harvest with you.”

Activation:

Receive God’s seeds by faith and ask the Lord where He would like you to sow His seed today. It could be a new venture, or simply a kind word.

5 They who sow in tears shall reap with joyful singing.

6 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 126:5-6 (AMP)

2 Corinthians 12:9 – His Power Perfected in Our Weakness

but He has said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you [My lovingkindness and My mercy are more than enough—always available—regardless of the situation]; for [My] power is being perfected [and is completed and shows itself most effectively] in [your] weakness.” Therefore, I will all the more gladly boast in my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ [may completely enfold me and] may dwell in me.

2 Corinthians 12:9 (AMP)

Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – Bloom in Season

“Burst forth and blossom where I have planted you,” says the Spirit of the Lord. In the spirit I saw a field full of flowers – tulips, daffodils, snowdrops, crocuses, seasonal flowers all blooming together. A riot of colours erupting in scent and glorious sight.

While they were all beautiful and crafted by God’s hand, some were out of season. They were out of step with the timing of the Lord.

The Spirit of the Lord says, “Now is not a time to rush ahead and operate in your own strength. There is a time for everything and you need to trust that My timing is perfect. My will will be done.

I am not asking you to bloom on your own.

Blossom with Me.

Build with Me.

Don’t operate from a place of exhaustion.

Do not allow confusion or lies from the enemy to rob you of your time to flower forth.

Stay in step with My spirit.

You are enough.

Your shape, your sound and the way you fragrance the atmosphere is enough.

It is who I have created you to be. Do not rush when others flower early, or try to shrink back if your time comes first.

Stand tall. Stand out. And see how brightly you bloom with Me.”

12 ‘The flowers appear on the earth once again;
The time for singing has come,
And the voice of the turtledove is heard in our land.

13 ‘The fig tree has bedded and  ripens her figs,
And the vines are in blossom and give forth their fragrance.
Arise, my love, my fair one,
And come away [to climb the rocky steps of the hillside].’”

Song of Solomon 2:12-13 (AMP)

Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – Tend to Your Roots

“My child, people have begun to do what is right in their own eyes and focus on their appearance more than on Me. Unknowingly they have uprooted themselves from Me by trying to live on yesterday’s manna and past testimonies. I have a fresh Word and fresh testimony for you today!” says the Spirit of the Lord.

“Oh, My people – return to Me and tend to your roots in Me before outward appearance and desires. Remember I am the source of life and nourishment. I am the One who waters, prunes, and causes fruit to burst forth.

Drink deep of the living waters I have for you. Rest in My word and in My presence. Delight in the fruit I have for you, the testimonies waiting for you.”

Activation:

Ask the Lord where you may have abandoned Him or dug your own wells apart from Him. Then tend to your roots by repenting and planting yourself in His Spirit, and deeply in His Word. Commit to deepening your walk with Him. Ask Yahweh to fill you to overflowing. Thank the Lord for His faithfulness to you.

Book One

The Righteous and the Wicked Contrasted.

1 [a]Blessed [fortunate, prosperous, and favored by God] is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked [following their advice and example],
Nor stand in the path of sinners,
Nor sit [down to rest] in the seat of [b]scoffers (ridiculers).

2 But his delight is in the law of the Lord,
And on His law [His precepts and teachings] he [habitually] meditates day and night.

3 And he will be like a tree firmly planted [and fed] by streams of water,
Which yields its fruit in its season;
Its leaf does not wither;
And in whatever he does, he prospers [and comes to maturity].

Psalm 1:1-3 (AMP)

Footnotes

[a] Psalm 1:1 This has been called “The Preface Psalm” because in some respects it introduces the complete book of Psalms as a godly message. It opens with a benediction, “Blessed,” as does the Sermon on the Mount (Matt 5:3).

[b] Psalm 1:1 i.e. shallow thinkers who are quick to mock or disdain.

Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – As Seasons Change

“My dear child, as the seasons change, you know you need to change the way you dress. Your winter coat is designed to keep you warm as temperatures plummet. But if you wear your winter coat in summer heat, there is a potential danger to your health. If you wear flip-flops in the snow, you could become sick. Not all things are right in every season,” says the Spirit of the Lord.

“I want you to understand that the same applies in spiritual matters. Take a moment and look at what you needed in previous seasons that you have allowed to follow you through the door into this season.

In a time of shaking, much of the old will no longer be useful or helpful to you. Thought patterns, daily rhythms, even work-life balance will need to be reassessed.

Allow Me to show you the new ways of thinking that will hold you in the shaking. Allow Me to clothe you in the right garments that will hold you in this season. Allow Me to reform patterns of rest so that you can remain alert.”

A Time for Everything

1 There is a season (a time appointed) for everything and a time for every delight and event or purpose under heaven—

2 A time to be born and a time to die;
A time to plant and a time to uproot what is planted.

3 A time to kill and a time to heal;
A time to tear down and a time to build up.

4 A time to weep and a time to laugh;
A time to mourn and a time to dance.

Ecclesiastes 3:1-4 (AMP)
