A few days ago, during worship, I went into a vision and I saw a person wrapped up in bandages standing in a tomb. I perceived this to be Lazarus because my spirit began to say, "Lazarus, come forth! Lazarus, come forth!"
Then the Spirit of God came upon me, and I began to prophesy: "People of God, it is time to emerge. It's time to leave the place that you have been in. It's time to leave the place of death that you have been dwelling in, for the season of death is over! The season of your seeds falling to the ground and dying is over!
"The season of doors closing and things ending, the season of barrenness, the season where it's felt like there's been no fruitfulness, the season where it felt like every single thing that I placed inside of you came to its bitter end is over! You are exiting that place.
"You are coming out of the place that you've been in, where you've been acquainted with the death of My burial; you've been acquainted with Gethsemane; you've been acquainted with grief and suffering. But now I'm calling you out. I'm calling you from that place. That is not the place that I destined for you to be in.
The Battle Over Your Destiny Is at Its Pinnacle
"I've seen the enemy raging on your every side. I've seen him trying to barter with you for the promise I gave you. I've seen him trying to rob you of the things that I placed upon your life and promised I was leading you into. I've seen the deep grief you have been carrying, where you have felt like you didn't see the fruition of what I promised. I have seen you trying to navigate what looks like ruins and dreams dying before their time. The disappointment has been deep, and having to surrender in the midst of so many questions and unknowns has felt like having to let go of everything you've held dear to your heart.
"For the enemy of your soul has been warring to prevent you from entering into the place of the promise I have prepared for you. He tried to wrap you up in the grave clothes of deep disappointment and send you to an early death, but it did not work!
The Fresh Day Dawning After the Dark Night
"For even now a new day dawns; can you not see it? Can you not see the fresh ray of hope dawning around you, bringing you back to life? For what now feels like you are further unraveling is only Me unraveling you from the grave clothes that have been around you. Where it feels like, right now, you are descending further into disarray, I'm untangling you from the demonic assignments and the warfare that has been on your every side, and I'm leading you out of that place that you have felt stuck in. Even right now, I'm leading you through your dark night of the soul into a new day of hope. (Photo via Unsplash)
"Can you feel My Spirit brooding over you? Do you feel your womb beginning to leap, even in what feels like your greatest season of hopelessness? Can you feel Me leading you out of soul sickness, heart numbness and emotional trauma?
The Second Wind Is Making All Things New
"Right now I'm causing you to come alive in the places of your greatest grief and loss. And in the days to come, you're going feel fresh strength come upon you, and a fresh wind blowing upon the deep caverns of your soul; and you'll feel My Spirit resurrecting the dry bones of your life and family. Yes, I have seen the war against families and the destiny of families, but watch as I lead your family out of the wilderness and into a new day of hope and fulfillment.
"You're going to feel fresh life coming upon you, for I am making all things new. And people will say, 'But didn't they fall into ruin? Didn't God forsake them?' But no, that is not the place I destined for you to live in. For even though you walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I am with you; My rod and My staff comfort you.
"You have not been forsaken, but I have been shepherding you through this time. I've been leading you through the dark night of the soul. I've been leading you through the place of your greatest battle. But now you will emerge with the keys to victory. You will emerge with a fresh anointing and a fresh conviction. And then, in the days to come, you'll see that what looked like a season of death—a season of the tomb—was actually your greatest birthing. For even now, resurrection life is coming upon you. Resurrection life is encompassing you.
"Now, watch what blooms from the desert. Watch as I lead your feet onto a new path. Watch as I begin to connect the dots that you felt could never be connected. Watch as I take a season of chaos and I weave it into a season of your greatest fruitfulness. For in the days to come, you'll look back and you'll see My faithfulness woven even throughout your darkest moments."
"Afflicted city, lashed by storms and not comforted, I will rebuild you with stones of turquoise, your foundations with lapis lazuli. I will make your battlements of rubies, your gates of sparkling jewels, and all your walls of precious stones." (Isaiah 54:11-12)
"Oh, come forth mighty Church! My Bride, come forth! This is a new day. This is a new day. This is a new day. Now shake off the old clothes. Shake it off, shake it off, shake it off, and step into the new day that is dawning upon you!
The Cross Over Months
"Now, My mighty Bride, cross over. For in the months to come, you'll begin to feel the tiredness and weariness that you've been carrying leave. You'll begin to feel the old mantle and raggedy garment begin to leave you. And you'll feel a fresh fire come upon your spirit and cause you to come alive. And you will cross over from death into life. And you will cross over from that which has been decayed into that which is blossoming forth. And you will cross over from an old way of thinking into a new mindset and perspective.
"You'll cross over from a limited way of seeing and perceiving and enter into an eagle-eyed season of knowing what I am doing in the earth. You will cross over into a new day. Your whole family will step into the new door that I have ordained for you, and you'll step out of the old season, the old wine, the old methods, the old thing that has been trying to keep you contained and limited and under a ceiling—a brassed Heaven.

"I'm leading you out of that place, and you will begin to burn with fulfillment as you begin to realize that you've crossed into your Canaan, you've crossed into your promised land, and you've come out of your days of survival; you've come out of your days of weariness; you've come out of your days of constantly having to fight the giants of the past. And you will, for the first time in many years, look forward and see what I have for you. You will hold in your very hands the promise that I have given you from many years ago.
"People of God, get ready, get ready, get ready! Get ready to see the promise. Get ready to step into the land that I have given you. Get ready to sign contracts to own and possess what the enemy has been afraid of you possessing. You're going to begin to see the very fulfillment that I have ordained for you before your very eyes.
"Get ready to cross over. For people who have said, 'The forecast is bleak. The months ahead will be full of turmoil and great battles.' But I have ordained for these months to be a reminder of My goodness in the land of the living, despite what the world is saying.
Provision and Fresh Vision
"Get ready to see the provision. Get ready to dream with Me in greater ways than you have before. For I want you to forfeit your old vision, I want you to forfeit your old limitations on My provision and My faithfulness, and I want you to believe with Me for that which looks impossible. Get ready to see the camels of provision coming. Get ready to see that which I've laid up for you. The treasures, riches stored in secret places, will come to you—the wealth of the wicked laid up for you—so that you can fulfill the promises that I've given you upon your life."
"I will give you the treasures of darkness and the hoards in secret places, that you may know that it is I, the LORD, the God of Israel, who call you by your name." (Isaiah 45:3)
"For just as Moses was fully satiated, you are exiting the season of death and crossing over into a season of being fully satiated in the calling on your life and knowing that your greatest days are yet to come," says the Lord.
