Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – New Method

My beloved one, I hear your heart as I ask you to start something new in the midst of what seems to be a challenging time. You are questioning if you heard Me correctly and if the timing is correct. You say to yourself, “Why would the Lord ask Me to do something now?”

But I, the Lord, say, “You have heard Me well. I am doing this now because I am teaching you how to trust Me even when things are difficult. Even during these times, as I am also asking you to embark on something new, I am doing so to teach you how to trust in Me differently and how to have hope in Me as you walk through this time. Will you hope in Me, or will you hope in flesh and blood?

During this season, I am teaching you new methods to move with Me and better ways to flow with Me. It is very important that you not only do what I am asking you to do, but that you do it exactly the way that I instruct you. Do not deviate from the plan. By doing this, I am working out in you a greater ability to host my glory. Allowing you to move through these trials is part of that, as I am working out in you a greater weight of My glory. Let this have its perfect work, completing in you the very thing that I began.”

Activation:

What new venture, relationship, or opportunity is God currently leading you towards? Even if the timing seems difficult, reflect on how He may be using this, embracing this new step in trust rather than doubt.

Then, pray aloud:

God, I choose to trust that You are intentional and purposeful in what you are asking me to start right now. Give me the courage to step forward boldly in faith rather than questioning, murmuring, or complaining. I yield to your instructions. Not my will Lord, but Your will be done.

Next, with the Holy Spirit’s guidance, break down the new endeavour into small, manageable action steps. Before taking each one, pause to seek God’s guidance through prayer. Ask things like: What is the next wise step here?” or “How do I move forward?” Then listen quietly for the Holy Spirit to direct your thoughts.

So beware if you think it could never happen to you, lest your pride becomes your downfall. We all experience times of testing, which is normal for every human being. But God will be faithful to you. He will screen and filter the severity, nature, and timing of every test or trial you face so that you can bear it. And each test is an opportunity to trust him more, for along with every trial God has provided for you a way of escape that will bring you out of it victoriously.

1 Corinthians 10:13 (TPT)

3 For you know that when your faith is tested, your endurance has a chance to grow.

4 So let it grow, for when your endurance is fully developed, you will be perfect and complete, needing nothing.

5 If you need wisdom, ask our generous God, and He will give it to you. He will not rebuke you for asking.

James 1:3-5 (NLT)

Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – My Perfect Plan

I am the all-knowing, all-powerful and all-loving God. I am perfect in all of My ways and have created a perfect and prosperous plan for you.

You may be tempted by hurt, offence, and rejection to divert from this plan. You may feel the need to create your own plans to feel seen, heard and validated. In this space, jealousy, competition and sabotage become your arrows.

Hear the truth: the Kingdom is big enough for all who seek it, and there is plenty of work to be done. Don’t fall into validation’s trap and work against your Kingdom neighbor. For when you do, you also work against Me. It will leave you stuck, disappointed, isolated and unfulfilled.

Plans rooted in validation eventually lead to self-idolization. Remember Who the greatest gift is – Jesus. He died so you could be redeemed, adopted, freed, and saved! Does He not deserve all the glory, honour and praise?

Precious child, take the time to heal. Remember who you are and whose you are. You are mine, and I determine your self-worth. 

Let go of the pain and all of your agendas so you can be redirected to what is perfect for you. Allow Me to restore your heart. Flow with Me and My perfect timing. 

Recognize the value of those around you, learning to work in harmony with one another, lifting each other up. Then, see how My plans far exceed yours!

Activation:

Are there any areas of hurt and rejection that you are carrying? Identify the root of this hurt, and ask the Lord to heal you. Repent. Lay down your agendas and any need to validate yourself. Then, ask Holy Spirit for fresh revelation on what it means to be a child of God. Spend time praying and reflecting on what is revealed to you.

But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.

Matthew 6:33 (NIV)

Spiritual Blessings

3 All praise to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly realms because we are united with Christ.

4 Even before He made the world, God loved us and chose us in Christ to be holy and without fault in His eyes.

5 God decided in advance to adopt us into His own family by bringing us to Himself through Jesus Christ. This is what He wanted to do, and it gave Him great pleasure.

6 So we praise God for the glorious grace He has poured out on us who belong to His dear Son.[a]

Ephesians 1:3-6 (NLT)

Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – Let’s Prepare

Where is your heart divided, My child? Where is your vision impaired from the fullness I long to lavish on you? Where has despair and hopelessness crept into your life patterns? Where do you long for My movement but fail to see I have moved and am moving?

These have been days of movement. Of hearts and minds being set free but there are some places in your life where you still hold yourself captive to the things of the past. Living in the past does not allow you to move into the future. Hands that are full of things that I’ve asked you to let go of are not able to carry the new things I have for you. I am asking you to let go and step into the fullness of freedom I have for you.

This is a pinnacle point of preparation for what is to come. Please do not dismiss this or believe this is not for you. Listen, look, and lean into the process over the coming weeks. I am asking you to take seriously this time to declutter as an act of obedience and readiness for the next season.

Activation: For the next little while spend time asking Holy Spirit where there are any outstanding areas of action, agreement, healing or deliverance that need to be attended to. Seek His wisdom on these things.

And no one puts new wine into old wineskins. If he does, the wine will burst the skins—and the wine is destroyed, and so are the skins. But new wine is for fresh wineskins.”[a]

Take Up Your Cross and Follow Jesus

24 Then Jesus told His disciples, “If anyone would come after Me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow Me.

25 For whoever would save his life[a] will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake will find it.

26 For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world and forfeits his soul? Or what shall a man give in return for his soul?

27 For the Son of Man is going to come with His angels in the glory of His Father, and then He will repay each person according to what he has done.

28 Truly, I say to you, there are some standing here who will not taste death until they see the Son of Man coming in His Kingdom.”

Matthew 16: 24-28 (ESV)

Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – The Road Ahead

In this season, there are choices set before you. Choose wisely. There are doors set before you and you are asking Me, which door do I choose? Your first step in asking Me is correct. The next step is to weigh the options through My peace and allow My peace to lead you. Trust Me to lead you. Sometimes, the right door doesn’t make sense to the human mind.

My Kingdom works differently for it is upside down. The world will tell you to choose their way and it may even look like a “good life”, but it will not lead to life. My leading could look like “death or lack” but in the end, it is full of blessings. Sit quietly with Me and dream, I will show you which door will bring you blessings and which ones to stay away from. Trust me with the outcome.

5 For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit.

6 For to be [a]carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.

Romans 8:5-6 (NKJV)
Footnotes
[a] Romans 8:6 fleshly

19 I call heaven and earth as witnesses today against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing; therefore choose life, that both you and your descendants may live;

20 that you may love the LORD your God, that you may obey His voice, and that you may cling to Him, for He is your life and the length of your days; and that you may dwell in the land which the Lord swore to your fathers, to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, to give them.”

Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – Get Your House In Order

19 Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God? You are not your own,

20 for you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body.

1 Corinthians 6:19-20 (ESV)

My spirit dwells within you; the spirit of the Lord most high lives within you. The Holy Spirit is your helper, your companion, your nudge to take action, your wakeup call in the middle of the night. Holy Spirit shares secrets with you and prods your heart. You are a home for the Holy Spirit, a dwelling place, a temple. 

Is your temple in disarray or is it a comfortable, cosy, welcoming and safe space? In this season I am asking My people to get their houses in order. Rid yourself of anything that would make you unclean in My sight, rid yourself of false idols and statutes that were never given to you from Me. Do not delay, do not deviate, fix your eyes on Me and be obedient.

Activation: Sit with Holy Spirit and look with your spiritual eyes into the spirit realm while asking this question, Holy Spirit would you show Me what I look like as a dwelling place for you? Look as He reveals what you look like internally as a dwelling place for Him. Ask more questions as this is revealed to you; remember we have all been given eyes to see this way. What does the Holy Spirit say to you about the dwelling place you have made within you. Is He asking you to change things? Were you surprised by what He shared? Take Holy Spirit’s hand and partner with Him in whatever He asks of you. This may be more of something or less of something. This may be a purification process or it may be a place of well-done good and faithful servant.

What agreement has the temple of God with idols? For we are the temple of the living God; as God said,

“I will make My dwelling among them and walk among them,
and I will be their God,
and they shall be My people.

1 Corinthians 6:16 (ESV)

Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – Changes

My child, it’s easy to look at your life and feel like nothing has changed. Let Me tell you that is not the case. I watch over you and I have protected you from devastating and destructive changes that could have a detrimental impact on your life. Nevertheless, changes in your walk with Me, your need for Me and relationship with Me have occurred.

Drawing closer to Me changes your trajectory towards a deeper relationship and understanding of My ways.

The changes I bring are to take you higher, to increase your gifting, and understanding of your authority. I will operate in you to benefit the body and your community. Look, and you will see both the physical and spiritual impact on your life and the lives of those around you. As you move into a new season you will carry these changes with you and they will act as a catalyst for more new changes.

Activation: Ask the Lord to show you what changes have occurred in your life over the past year. Ask the Lord how you can partner with Him with new changes He wants to establish this year. Thank Him for His plans for you.

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)

“Listen carefully, I am about to do a new thing, now it will spring forth; will you not be aware of it?
I will even put a road in the wilderness, rivers in the desert.

Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – My Invitation

I will not leave you empty. I want to reward you and fill you to an overflow, giving life and purpose to your dry bones. My hand is extended. I invite you to take it that we may enter into an exhilarating lifetime of passionate adventure.

Activation:

Take note of which of these were highlighted to you as you read. Acknowledge this as the Holy Spirit showing you where God is inviting you into Him. Take God’s hand, and yield to Him. Receive the reward of being filled in all the ways He desires and all the ways you need. Know this is a never-ending, open invitation. The more you come to Him, the more He will reward you.

Behold, I stand at the door [of the church] and continually knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with him (restore him), and he with Me.

Revelation 3:20 (AMP)

28 Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.

29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”

Matthew 11:28-30 (ESV)

Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – Rhythm of My Heart

My dear child, does your heart beat to the rhythm of your heart or Mine?

Does it tick in harmony with My Kingdom purposes? I came that you would have life, and have it to the full, but this is not possible without alignment with both the desires of My heart for you and the timings of My Kingdom.

My timing brings protection, placing you in the right place at the right time. It spares you the pain of unrealized dreams, meandering pathways, unnecessary obstacles, dead ends and crushing disappointments.

My timing brings connection through intimacy with Me; lifelong relationships; Heaven’s opportunities; Kingdom resources; financial provision; miracles & healing; vision sharers; blessing bringers; prayer warriors and angelic armies!

My timing brings election to Kingdom positions, so that My will can be done on earth as it is in Heaven. It is a key to reaching the lost and to releasing divine blessing, promotion, adventure and fulfilment in your life, for He who honours Me, I will honour. So today, dear one, remember protection, connection, election!

Draw near to Me and I will draw near to you. Step in time to the rhythm of My heart for it beats with the same blood that was shed to set you free! Take My hand, ask for My timing and follow Me!

Prayer: Dear Lord, Thank you for who you are and how much you love me. I am so sorry for the times that I have not lined myself up with your plan for my life. Today I place into your hands those areas that I have held back from you (take a moment to ask Holy Spirit what areas you need to submit to Him and add them here). I ask that you would now move me and all that concerns me into complete alignment with your heart’s desire and timing for my life and I choose to receive all you have for me. Amen

A Time for Everything

For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven:

2 “I will go before you and level the exalted places,[a] I will break in pieces the doors of bronze and cut through the bars of iron,

Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – Divine Understanding

Today, beloved, I want you to know that I am on your side despite your circumstances. I am not fighting against you and I am not changing things despite you. My heart is always to work all things for the good of those who love Me. When you love Me, as you do, with all of your heart, movement happens and changes take place.

Do not mistake My actions as Me being displeased with you or begin self analysing, believing that you got it wrong. Do not mistake My movement for a lack of favour in your life; the movement and change come through favour not because of a lack of it. Embrace how My favour truly presents itself in your life.

Embrace the fullness of My character and who I truly am, for then you will understand some of the process I am taking you through.

If there comes a time where you don’t understand, lean not on your own ways of thinking but in those moments choose to activate your trust and faith in Me.

Activation: Sit with Me today and share with Me the things that trouble you. I want to know your heart’s desires and the things that trouble your mind. Tell Me the things you don’t understand and allow Me to bring you higher to see beyond your circumstances. As you allow us to journey in this together, I will change the way you see things and help bring your heart back into alignment with Me and My rhythms.

3 Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding.

6 In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make straight your paths.

7 Be not wise in your own eyes;
fear the Lord, and turn away from evil.

8 It will be healing to your flesh
and refreshment to your bones.

Proverbs 3:5-8 (ESV)

28 And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good,[a] for those who are called according to his purpose.

Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – All of Me

Each part of Me is wondrously unique, yet, we are one, always together and in sync.

I am the Father, full of parental love for you. With Me, you have identity as My child. I am the Son, the friend who laid down His life to save you. With Me, you have hope, access to the Father and a Kingdom call. I AM the Holy Spirit, your helper always pursuing to fill you. With Me, you have direction, conviction and power. All of Me is wholeness, and together we are a full measure. Evil has deceived many to reject parts of Me, rendering the Body divided and weak. This is My invitation to receive all of Me. 

Prayer: Father, I repent for rejecting any part of You. Help me to see the truth of who You are so I can accept and receive all of You. I also repent for partnering with division. Teach me how to help others see the truth and accept all of You that we may operate together in unity and be that unstoppable force against evil. In Jesus’s name, amen.

4 There is one body [of believers] and one Spirit—just as you were called to one hope when called [to salvation]—

5 one Lord, one faith, one baptism,

6 one God and Father of us all who is [sovereign] over all and [working] through all and [living] in all.

Ephesians 4:4-6 (AMP)

18 And [I pray] that the eyes of your heart [the very center and core of your being] may be enlightened [flooded with light by the Holy Spirit], so that you will know and cherish the [a]hope [the divine guarantee, the confident expectation] to which He has called you, the riches of His glorious inheritance in the [b]saints (God’s people),

19 and [so that you will begin to know] what the immeasurable and unlimited and surpassing greatness of His [active, spiritual] power is in us who believe. These are in accordance with the working of His mighty strength

20 which He [c]produced in Christ when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His own right hand in the heavenly places,

21 far above all rule and authority and power and dominion [whether angelic or human], and [far above] every name that is named [above every title that can be conferred], not only in this age and world but also in the one to come.

22 And He [d]put all things [in every realm] in subjection under Christ’s feet, and [e]appointed Him as [supreme and authoritative] head over all things in the church,

23 which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills and completes all things in all [believers].
