Embrace it as a gift! by Kathy Mote
Today's word on 6/30/2016,
Embrace it as a gift that you have been deprived of the things of this life. Embrace it with giddy excitement. For what you have been deprived of, said the Lord, is where He will be your gift, instead. The love of friends, husband, wife, parents, and even self will all be replaced by Him. He will now be your staff, the One you lean on, and He will fulfill. You have not been deprived of any good thing, you have been given a precious opportunity and a gift. To live in His presence, to supp with Him, to be fulfilled beyond your wildest imagining. Embrace your gift with a grateful heart, turn to Him instead of feeling bereft. You have been given a lovely and precious gift, for which many before you have waited. Do not let your heart be troubled, for He calls you to Himself. You have been led to where you are for reasons beyond this world. He does in you a wonderful living work, and you will be changed in His presence.

"Let Go! It Is A Season For Wings!"
I kept seeing a vision of an eagle soaring over water this morning with the tips of his wings touching the water ever so gently. He soared with no restrictions and so carefree. I could feel the presence of the Lord come upon me so strongly. The Lord is saying that the season of wings has begun. We will be enabled to go higher into realms of the Spirit. If we are to know God more completely, then we must go higher. (Isaiah 55:9) "For as the heavens are higher than the earth, So are My ways higher than your ways, And My thoughts than your thoughts.”
We are meant to operate like the eagles and soar above the voices of this world. I hear the Lord say, "Let go!" Peter knew what it was like to let go and step out into unfamiliar territory. He saw that Jesus was not controlled by natural realm circumstances and Peter wanted that experience too. When he first got the idea of walking on water, it sounded great. As long as he kept his eyes on Jesus, everything was fine. However the waves started calling out, “Look at us,” and the winds were calling out, “Listen to us,” and poor old Peter got rattled with those two factors competing for his attention. The problem is that when the wind starts blowing, it carries with it other people’s opinions. Sometimes those opinions seem louder than the one you first heard.
The familiar territory may seem safer while the God things are so unknown, but He is calling you to come higher. He wants to take you to ground that is yet untrodden. To go there you must be willing to let go of what you know. When you have got the vision in front of you and His Word in your ears calling your name, let go of what you know in the natural realm, as well as all the voices and opinions, and fly out in the Spirit. Don’t strive to perform or prove that you can fly! God has created you to soar! Don't struggle, just spread those wings and catch the wind currents that is going to thrust you higher in Him! I keep hearing the Lord say over and over, "Let Go! Let Go!" There are some right now that you need to let go. Let God have his way in your life for there is much that awaits you on your spiritual horizon.
HERE COME THE TRAVAILING PROPHETS by Behold the Man Ministries
God is releasing a new breed of travailing prophets in the earth right now who have been convinced that their greatest privilege in life is to make intercession to the Lord of Hosts. These burning ones are being forged in the context of night and day prayer. They are more devoted to the secret place than the public place.
These travailing prophets are more familiar with a prayer room than a playroom called a stage. These men and women would rather minister to an audience of One than an audience of hundreds or even thousands. They crave the attention of the throne room more than the praise afforded to them on a platform and is the very generation Jeremiah spoke of in Jeremiah 27:18 when he said, “But if they are true prophets and if the word of the Lord is really spoken by them, let them now make intercession to the LORD of hosts…”
There are prophetic voices that carry the word of the Lord, and then there are prophetic voices that carry “the burden” of the word of the Lord. These travailing prophets are actually going to live in a place inside the Father's heart called, "the birthing room".
Travail will be their bread and water during the day and the groans of the Father’s heart will be what keeps them up at night. They will enter into cities and regions carrying aspects of God’s character and nature that are simply not available to others that have not made the secret place a priority.
Travailing prophets understand that cities and regions can be won in travail and intercession down on their knees before they even arrive and prophesy on their feet! Intense seasons of prayer and fasting will precede the arrival of these messengers. They will carry the fresh fire and word of the Lord wherever they go because they have spent time gazing upon the throne room and receiving the Father’s desires in intercession. They will not prophesy from mere impressions, but from being impregnated with the very mind and heart of God.
Perhaps the greatest reward of these travailing prophetic voices of intercession will be an accurate assessment of the Father’s heart that they will gain through wrestling with Him through prayer and fasting. These messengers understand that it is not enough to deliver the word of the Lord, but rather delivering the word with the Father’s heart is what is most needed in this hour.

Now I am moving on your behalf … Do not go by what your natural eyes see ... Go Only By What Your Spiritual Eyes See

In South Africa … I am exposing a system of lies as you have cried out to me to do and replacing it with a foundation of truth.
In Israel I am repairing the breaches that have been made by the enemy … Strengthening the hearts of the people
In Greece I Am moving swiftly to open the eyes of all those who are willing ... To show them a better way of doing things that shall cause wealth to come into dry and barren places
In Australia I am causing a hope to come to the hopeless … A refreshing is upon you … A newness and an increased time of Divine Invitations are being delivered to those who will lead the Divine Transformation that is soon coming upon you.

In Africa I am springing forth new wells … Healing wells … Signs and wonders will occur in many places and pastors will began to see the harvest of souls they have cried out for.
The Netherlands will be known as a place where God dwells for My presence will be constantly upon them in a visible way.
Iceland as well as Finland shall be known as a place of peace and negotiation for many shall flock to those I set apart with Divine Wisdom to impart to heads of Nations ... I am granting them the increase they have asked for.
His servant, Donna Cox
RESTORATION by RENE PICOTA
The Lord told me today that He was getting ready to restore everything you have lost! He showed me the heartache. He showed me the tears that you have shed. He showed me the people who betrayed you and took advantage of you. He showed me those who stole from you and lied about you.
He showed me the individual satan had sent to derail you from your purpose. But the Lord told me to tell you that He was restoring everything! This is a month of abundance! It is a month of double harvest! It is time for you to get double for your trouble! I believe within the next 3 days there will be a resurrection in your relationships, your finances, and your spiritual life.
The Spirit of the Lord is moving behind the scenes for you right now. You may not see it but things look so much different from Heaven's perspective!
I know you feel that blessing anointing as you read this. The Lord is about to do a miracle for you right now! This is your season to come out of lack. It is your season to come out of sickness. It is your season to experience your breakthrough! I feel the anointing so strong as I type this.
Prophetic Declaration
Heaven must receive him until the time comes for God to restore everything, as he promised long ago through his holy prophets. -Acts 3:21
A Word by Brian Simmon on 6/23/2016
I hear His whisper...
"I am giving to you a renewed mind. I will restore your inner being and begin to pour light into your understanding as never before. Your mind and your thoughts will be filled with My glory. New ways of looking at what disturbs you will give you insights into My plans. A renewed mind is a mind made new. Change your thinking by My Word and I will change your life. My thoughts are contained in My Word. Eat My Word as living Bread and as timeless truth.
"I call you to look anew at your relationships, your disappointments, and your challenges. When My thoughts enter your heart you will speak and pray as a child of the Most High God, the Mighty One. When doubt fills your heart everything seems impossible and difficult; but faith sees the impossible it becomes an opportunity for glory to be revealed.
"To have no water in the wilderness was not a problem for Me. To have no food in the desert was no problem to Me. I opened the skies and poured out the bread of angels, and I opened the Rock and poured out the water of life. My holy servants will be changed beginning in their thoughts. I am about to give to My faith-filled warriors the ability to see the works of God even before I release them. Faith sees what others are blind to. Faith releases what others say will never happen.
"I say to you, whatever you ask of Me if prayer believing I will give to you as ask in the glory of My Name. You will see prayers answered on a scale never seen before. I will shake the earth to demonstrate My power as My people pray. I will fill the cloudless sky with rain as My holy ones seek My face and ask of Me. I will open up a way in the middle of your impossibility! Let your mind become the resting place of faith. Let your thoughts move into a higher realm where there are no barriers to your advance.
"My servant Caleb asked for a mountain and he received a mountain when others refused to ask and hid behind their unbelief. Many are asking for such small things when I am a King surrounded in glory that has no limitation. Joshua prayed and I stopped the sun in response. I lengthened a day into two, because My servant saw no impossibility. Ask and you will receive, seek and more will be possessed, knock and the heavenly gates will respond to your plea.
"The thoughts in your mind today will be the reality of who you are tomorrow. Fill your mind with My words and My truth. Be set free with a mind that soars in faith to view your limitations as I see them, for they are merely opportunities to enter into miracles and to possess your inheritance. I will have a people who walk in the Spirit of faith and laugh at man's impossibilities! A conquering son or daughter will not run from the day of battle. Know that I am with you and I will release to you the Spirit of Revelation and the Spirit of Wisdom that will cause you to excel and overcome.
"Let me teach you My ways and My thoughts. Enter into the chamber room of My heart and I will unfold the mysteries of My ways to you. Others will not value the lessons I have taught you in secret, but your true life is not before others, but who you are before Me. Enter in and learn of Me and you will find the euphoria of knowing My fullness and walking in My faith."
Hebrews 11:1-3
Now faith brings our hopes into reality and becomes the foundation needed to acquire the things we long for. It is all the evidence required to prove what is still unseen. ²This testimony of faith is what previous generations were commended for. ³Faith empowers us to see that the universe was created and beautifully coordinated by the power of God’s Words! He spoke in faith and the invisible realm gave birth to all that is seen!
Prophetic word for July by Rene Picotta
July is a season of supernatural rest. Now is the time to soak up the Son. It is time to position yourself and let the Lord re-charge your batteries. In this season the Lord is giving you creative ways to release your stress. In this season the Lord is strengthening marriages. It is a time to get away from your current environment and enjoy yourselves in the Lord. I will do in days of rest what would have taken months. It is time to stop striving. Let the Lord fight for you. Let the Lord handle it. His Spirit is going before you. His Spirit is blowing a fresh breeze upon you. Enjoy the presence of the Lord. Enjoy your family. Let the Lord quiet your soul.
Doors in Your Life-You have the Keys to The Kingdom by Amy Friend
There are different types of doors in your life that if you recognize them, you can unlock them. God has governed you the Keys to the Kingdom!
Prophetic word by Marsha Burns on 6/22/16
You are embarking on a new journey that will seem strange and unfamiliar. You will need my wisdom in navigating the uncharted waters of your life and circumstances. Unbridled faith and trust in Me will be required at this time as you leave the past behind and launch out into newness of life, says the Lord. Draw near to Me.
Psalms 73:28 But it is good for me to draw near to God; I have put my trust in the Lord GOD, that I may declare all Your works.
A word by Axel Sippach on 6/22/2016
A word by Axel Sippach
DON'T BECOME WHAT YOU DESPISED WHEN YOU WERE A YOUNGER EMERGING MINISTER
I see an unfortunate tendency at times with some younger leaders who once were rejected and under authoritarian controlling leadership of older leaders, that when they get a little older, and start experiencing some success in ministry, becoming just like what they despised, and following similiar patterns with those under them.
Instead, I want to encourage young leaders to become the servant-leader
you really wanted in your life at that time. Don't fall into the same
patterns of those whom you felt had you on a plantation only for their
own selfish purposes. Rise above those carnal patterns and follow in the
leadership example of Jesus.

Encouraging update on 6/21/2016 by Eunice Low
Today I just want to share with you all what happened to me.
Yesterday morning when I woke up from my sleep I felt really down. It is because before I woke up I had a bad dream. In my dream, I dreamed of someone at work spoke very negatively to me. She told me no one likes me and everyone cannot understand me. She even accused me for many things and one of the things she accused me was I did not socialise with other colleague. I tried to explain to her my situation in the dream. Somehow I felt very depressed and down in my dream.
So when I woke up, I felt the heaviness in my heart as I felt that the whole night I wasn’t able to sleep well. Of course that wasn't just because of the dream and even before the dream as I was half awake half slept the whole night.
To stop the negative feeling, I spoke to myself when I woke up that I didn't care what other people say about me, I declared I am the daughter of the King.
After I declared that, I went on to check my email. Somehow I received this message from Sheri Rose Shepherd in my mailbox. God has used the message to encourage me and comfort me. He is so so good to me. I just thought I will share it here to encourage you today.
Be blessed!
Famous atheist and liberal, telling the truth about the Muslim religion and what Christians believe contrary to Muslims.
Shannon Shuttles: "The gentleman in the video below is an outspoken, famous atheist and liberal, telling the truth about the Muslim religion and their "belief" systems. He even has a great grasp on how Christians believe contrary to Muslims. He goes against most liberals beliefs on this particular subject."
THOUSANDS OF MUSLIMS SEE JESUS IN DREAMS AND VISIONS
Puritan pictures,
Published on Dec 9, 2015
It has become a common occurrence over the years for Muslims in the Middle East who have converted to Christianity to claim to have been compelled to do so after dreaming of a person who they believe is Jesus Christ. Now, one militant belonging to the brutal Islamic State that has massacred Christians has converted to his victims' religion after dreaming of "a man in white" with a startling message, according to one missionary's account.

"One of our YWAM workers in the Middle East was contacted by a friend earlier this year and they met up and he was introduced to an ISIS fighter who had killed many Christians already. I mean that's a horrible situation, and admittedly, he was probably on guard," Gina Fadely, director of Youth With A Mission Frontier Missions, Inc. (YWAM), said during a recent appearance on The Voice of the Martyrs Radio Network.
YWAM, a nonprofit missionary organization active since 1960, describes itself as "a global movement of Christians from many cultures, age groups, and Christian traditions, dedicated to serving Jesus throughout the world." The Voice of the Martyrs (VOM) is another nonprofit that draws attention to Christians facing persecution around the world.
Fadely, who appeared on the VOM radio program along with Kevin Sutter, another YWAM leader, went on to share that this Islamic State jihadi confessed not only to killing Christians but "that he had actually enjoyed doing so."
"He told this YWAM leader that he had begun having dreams of this man in white who came to him and said, 'You are killing my people.' And he started to feel really sick and uneasy about what he was doing," Fadely continued. "The fighter said just before he killed one Christian, the man said, 'I know you will kill me, but I give to you my Bible.' The Christian was killed and this ISIS fighter actually took the Bible and began to read it. In another dream, Jesus asked him to follow him and he was now asking to become a follower of Christ and to be discipled."
"So who knows. Perhaps this man will be like Saul in the Bible that persecuted Christians and he turned from that persecution of the early church to become the Apostle Paul who led it," Fadely added. "God can turn it around."

The Valiant Ones by Sherry Edwards Mackey, Prophetic word on 6/18/2016
There is a transitioning in MY Kingdom world wide, and Satan tells his demons, “to do whatever it takes to stop them from coming.” He is frantic and vicious. He wants to stop the flow of God through each other.
The enemy is trying to gain our focus by problems. If the enemy can get us focusing on our problems, we won’t be able to pray and take authority over the attacks he is sending to disperse us. We are strong together, and we must war together. Do not fear what you see in front of you, I AM with you and promise to strengthen you, I will help you and uphold you.
Those who are angry with you shall have no grounds of effect in your life. They stare and glare at you trying to intimidate you with their looks. But I AM with you and you shall be vindicated and declared right even in the public arena. Those who contended with you and war against you will be nothing. I AM with you and I will hold you!
For many of you do not know the degree of onslaught against you. You have felt like the very air you breathe escapes you, struggling like a swimmer threading water but feeling weak to the point where you despair for life itself.
Your not alone. The enemy is trying to get us off focus by our problems. If the enemy can get us focusing on our problems, we won’t be able to pray and take authority over the attacks he is sending to disperse us.
Those who are angry with you shall have no grounds of effect in your life. They stare and glare at you trying to intimidate you with their looks, but I AM with you and you shall be vindicated and declared right even in the public arena. They will be ashamed and confounded, who sought to hinder you.
They who strive against you, shall be as nothing. You will seek them and not find them. Those who contended with you and war against you, will be nothing. I AM with you and I will hold you!
I have equipped you for this hour and the fire is shining up that glorious armor, bringing out the true purity which is by Me, says your GOD!
There are more with you than you know, both angels and praying saints. The effects of the swarm of adversity brought relentless rage, because you hit his nest.
Now destroy his works! They are like a nation without a home, they wander through dry places seeking rest. They are keen at terrorist threats. For who can curse what I have blessed?
But they swarm, they claim land inch by inch. Hear the Word of the LORD, they are not content with one inch, they want all. They want destruction, for it is the spirit of Babylon at work.
Every place that your foot shall tread on, has been given to you to possess. Possess Spiritual ground! Maintain the Spiritual ground that has been gained! Occupy till I come!
This is the occupation of MY army. You shall occupy and you shall build, you shall spread forth like an army without number. I have all things under control concerning your lives, says your GOD.
I will reveal POW’s, prisoners of war, MIA’s, missing in action that got captured and hindered from previous campaigns. Find them and release them says the LORD. There are also some who are AWOL, absent without leave and it is time to get back in line with MY Agenda. says the LORD.
Those who are angry with you shall have no grounds of effect in your life. They stare and glare at you trying to intimidate you with their looks, but I AM with you and you shall be vindicated and declared right even in the public arena.
These will be ashamed and confounded that sought to hinder you. They who strive against you shall be as nothing. Those who contended with you and war against you, will be nothing. I AM with you and I will hold you!
Fear not beloved! Don’t consider the former old things, because I AM doing a brand new thing.
I AM making a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert. Even the beast of the field and the birds of the air know the signs of the times, but MY people don’t. My people shall learn the lessons as I give waters in the wilderness and rivers in the desert, to provide for MY people MY chosen.
This people whom I have taken from among the chosen will be radical beyond any traditions. This people whom I have formed for myself, they will bring great glory to MY name.
They will come with MY word and nothing shall defer them. Every obstacle will be overtaken, every door that shuts they shall move on in unison. If they must camp, they will camp because they heard MY voice.
I shall meet them in the desert and those who tried to hinder these and curse these shall fall by that same curse of their own lips. Even the serpent and scorpion shall bow before these MY beloved, for how beautiful are your tents MY people!
There is no limit in Me for what I say, that I do. Don’t look at your inadequacy, but look to My sufficiency. Take your eyes completely off yourselves and others, place them on Me.
Look to the Author of The Book who shall finish the last chapter gloriously. The battles for territory are to gain the new lands by force.
The relentless personal attacks that have come against you have been the result of the ground that has been gained, Spiritually.
Every time the enemy tries to blow you out like a candle you shall come back stronger. Continue to reclaim the land, tear down the high places through warfare. Prepare the way for the coming of the LORD. Cleanse the land of defilement by destroying the powers of the idols. Occupy till I come.
The appearance of the Army that is emerging is like a raging fire, nothing escapes them. Like the noise of chariots and the noise of raging fire, they devour the enemies works.
They are like a very strong people set in battle array. The enemies are greatly distressed at the emerging valiant ones. The warriors of valor shall run like the mighty men. They shall be skillful in tactics and chiseled through trial.
These warriors will stay with the agenda and not venture in someone else expertise. Even if they fall upon a sword and get wounded, they shall be healed and rise up with greater strength. For with more afflictions and more wounds they shall rise with greater fervency and determination.
No area will be hidden from these valiant ones, says the LORD.
In HIS Grace and Mercy,
~ Sherry Edwards Mackey
Prophecy on 6/18/2016 Quiet Whispers.....and prophetic resistance by Annie Cox
As prophets of God we will face many adversarial issues. This scripture reference in 1 Kings 19, always gives me personal edification, but also reminds me that because of our covenant love, God does not tolerate those who persecute His prophets. He always leaves us a remnant, a leader who will back us up, and indeed the much needed help of "Elisha." Always give your Elisha their double portion beloved. Always. <3
1 Kings 19 New International Version (NIV)
Elijah Flees to Horeb
19 Now Ahab told Jezebel everything Elijah had done and how he had killed all the prophets with the sword. 2 So Jezebel sent a messenger to Elijah to say, “May the gods deal with me, be it ever so severely, if by this time tomorrow I do not make your life like that of one of them.”
3 Elijah was afraid[a] and ran for his life. When he came to Beersheba in Judah, he left his servant there, 4 while he himself went a day’s journey into the wilderness. He came to a broom bush, sat down under it and prayed that he might die. “I have had enough, Lord,” he said. “Take my life; I am no better than my ancestors.” 5 Then he lay down under the bush and fell asleep.
All at once an angel touched him and said, “Get up and eat.” 6 He looked around, and there by his head was some bread baked over hot coals, and a jar of water. He ate and drank and then lay down again.
7 The angel of the Lord came back a second time and touched him and said, “Get up and eat, for the journey is too much for you.” 8 So he got up and ate and drank. Strengthened by that food, he traveled forty days and forty nights until he reached Horeb, the mountain of God. 9 There he went into a cave and spent the night.
The Lord Appears to Elijah
And the word of the Lord came to him: “What are you doing here, Elijah?”
10 He replied, “I have been very zealous for the Lord God Almighty. The Israelites have rejected your covenant, torn down your altars, and put your prophets to death with the sword. I am the only one left, and now they are trying to kill me too.”
11 The Lord said, “Go out and stand on the mountain in the presence of the Lord, for the Lord is about to pass by.”
Then a great and powerful wind tore the mountains apart and shattered the rocks before the Lord, but the Lord was not in the wind. After the wind there was an earthquake, but the Lord was not in the earthquake. 12 After the earthquake came a fire, but the Lord was not in the fire. And after the fire came a gentle whisper. 13 When Elijah heard it, he pulled his cloak over his face and went out and stood at the mouth of the cave.
Then a voice said to him, “What are you doing here, Elijah?”
14 He replied, “I have been very zealous for the Lord God Almighty. The Israelites have rejected your covenant, torn down your altars, and put your prophets to death with the sword. I am the only one left, and now they are trying to kill me too.”
15 The Lord said to him, “Go back the way you came, and go to the Desert of Damascus. When you get there, anoint Hazael king over Aram. 16 Also, anoint Jehu son of Nimshi king over Israel, and anoint Elisha son of Shaphat from Abel Meholah to succeed you as prophet. 17 Jehu will put to death any who escape the sword of Hazael, and Elisha will put to death any who escape the sword of Jehu. 18 Yet I reserve seven thousand in Israel—all whose knees have not bowed down to Baal and whose mouths have not kissed him.”
The Call of Elisha
19 So Elijah went from there and found Elisha son of Shaphat. He was plowing with twelve yoke of oxen, and he himself was driving the twelfth pair. Elijah went up to him and threw his cloak around him. 20 Elisha then left his oxen and ran after Elijah. “Let me kiss my father and mother goodbye,” he said, “and then I will come with you.”
“Go back,” Elijah replied. “What have I done to you?”
21 So Elisha left him and went back. He took his yoke of oxen and slaughtered them. He burned the plowing equipment to cook the meat and gave it to the people, and they ate. Then he set out to follow Elijah and became his servant.
Fear not only Believe by Mark Hankins
Fear not only Believe.
As soon as Jesus heard the word that was spoken, he saith unto the ruler of the synagogue, Be not afraid, only believe. - Mark 5:36
I choose to fear not, only believe. Believing is a choice.
Mark Hankins
The Bible says that in the last days, people’s hearts will fail them because of fear (Luke 21:26). According to II Timothy 1:7, God did not give us a spirit of fear. If God did not give us a spirit of fear, where did it come from?
Fear comes from the devil. God is a faith God. When you have a spirit of faith, you do not have a spirit of fear.
Fear has several relatives and companions: doubt, anxiety, stress, and worry. These all stem from the same fear. It is impossible to have a spirit of faith and a spirit of fear at the same time.
In Mark 5, Jairus could have believed the bad report, gotten in fear, and given up on his miracle. But Jesus said, “Fear not, only believe!” There will be a fight to keep your faith strong in the worst of your circumstances. When you choose to believe God, all things are possible!
Confession: I choose to believe God. I am not anxious or worried because the peace of God guards my heart and mind through Christ Jesus! - Philippians 4:6-7

An encounter from the RGV region of south Texas by Leeza Lynn ABOUT 3 MONTHS AGO I was sound asleep in my room shook so hard and there was a bright light all over my room, I heard the name of JAEL spoken and I felt a knowing in my spirit that God had changed my name to Jael and told me that I was given that name. I woke up the very morning and sat down by my bed and I said here I am, ok, I received that name Lord!! He gave me this name and instantly I was taken into a heavy sleep and I went right back to sleep!!
Jael in the Bible was the wife of a man named Heber, who was a Kenite. The Kenites were related to the Midianites. Jael features in the book of Judges as a heroic woman who killed Sisera, the leader of King Jabin’s Canaanite army. Jabin was trying to conquer Israel, which was at that time under the leadership of Deborah, a prophetess and the only female to judge the nation of Israel. I give God the glory of this encounter, I praise the lord for the history of the miracles that happen in my walk with God.
When Sisera and his army came against Israel, Deborah sent word to Barak of the tribe of Naphtali that he was to fight the Canaanites and deliver Israel from Jabin’s hand. Barak was unwilling to go into battle without Deborah by his side. Deborah agreed to go with him but told him that, because of his reticence, a woman would get the honor of killing Sisera, the captain of Jabin’s army (Judges 4:4–7).
As the Israelites were winning the battle, as prophesied by Deborah, Sisera left his decimated army at the Kishon River and fled on foot (Judges 4:16–17). He came to Heber’s property and sought refuge there, knowing that Heber was in alliance with King Jabin. Heber’s wife, Jael, welcomed Sisera with the words “Come, my lord, come right in. Don’t be afraid” (Judges 4:18). She brought Sisera into her tent, covered him with a blanket, and gave him some milk to drink (verses 18–19). Jael was kind and hospitable, but she had an ulterior motive. After Sisera had eaten well and was asleep, Jael took a tent peg and a mallet and sneaked up on Sisera. She placed the tent peg’s point on his temple and hit the peg with the mallet, driving it through his temple with such force that it stuck in the ground on the other side of his head. Thus Sisera died (Judges 4:21).
Deborah’s prophecy was fulfilled: the honor of killing the captain of Jabin’s army went to a woman. That woman was Jael. As Barak pursued Sisera, he came to Heber’s settlement. Jael went to meet him and brought him into the tent to show him what she had done—Sisera’s body was lying there with a tent peg in his temple (Judges 4:22). Later, Barak and Deborah sang a song of the battle, and in the song they honored Jael by name:
“Most blessed of women be Jael,
the wife of Heber the Kenite,
most blessed of tent-dwelling women.
He asked for water, and she gave him milk;
in a bowl fit for nobles she brought him curdled milk.
Her hand reached for the tent peg,
her right hand for the workman’s hammer.
She struck Sisera, she crushed his head,
she shattered and pierced his temple.
At her feet he sank,
he fell; there he lay.
At her feet he sank, he fell;
where he sank, there he fell—dead” (Judges 5:24–27).

I have been working on creating a website for the longest time. So I started envisioning about writing the most personal things the lord has showed. I think God is taking our present generation to the next level. There is a feeling in the air that we are crossing over the red sea. I think having we have our part in our own journey with God and so therefore I believe God has stirred my heart to publish daily updates of this awesome journey with God.
Where God is taking us is where flesh cannot go
