Barry Wunsch: "I Am Restoring My People!"

 

[Editor's note: Below is a prophetic word that Barry Wunsch shared during his recent interview on ElijahStreams. We encourage you to read it and watch the episode here for more!]

Word of the Lord received on January 14, 2026:

True Love

As I was in my quiet time this morning and was reading these verses from 1 John 4:7–21, the Father began to speak to me and deeply stir my spirit. As I read it again and again, it penetrated my soul and spirit.

This is what came as the Father spoke to me:

"Barry, do you think that this kind of love for one another comes without honesty and truth in love, or even confrontation, to bring restoration and healing?

"Barry, you have been very codependent. You have often stepped in the way of My workings in those around you. You have stepped in where I did not ask you to step in. And on the contrary, you have not stepped in and spoken up when I have wanted you to. You have had insecurities within you: there have been times you lived under the fear of man—afraid to speak up and rock the boat. You have even used boundaries to punish instead of protect.

"Barry, there have been times where you were not living like the real you I created, but instead compromising in unhealthy ways and decisions, hoping for love and acceptance from man that was meant to come from Me.

The Healing Only God Can Give

"Barry, you must understand that this healing journey that I have you on is indeed one to get these things out of the way and out of your belief systems that do not have alignment with Me, My love, and destiny for you and those around you. I do not want to see you get hurt, nor do I want to see you hurt others, but I have called you to bring truth and light in love, to bring healing and deliverance, to set captives free.

"Barry, tell My people that I am bringing a depth of healing and deliverance to them that they did not know was possible. But you must be willing.

Breaking the Loop Cycles

"Barry, I am going to places the Church does not yet fully understand, but they will. I am dealing with bloodlines and the very DNA that is within you—and all that is not of Me. I am breaking the loop cycles that have plagued you and your families throughout history, and I am bringing you into the fullness of the My blood shed for you.

"Barry, tell My people that I am restoring families, breaking addictions, healing bodies, souls, spirits. I am healing mental health, bringing hope to the hopeless. I am breaking fear, anxiety, and PTSD. Trauma is not too big for Me to heal! I have overcome it all!

"I will not only heal you, but I will go to the depths of your infliction and infirmity to also renew your mind and give you My mindset so that you do not return to it again! I am bringing My people into the fullness of My love for them, so nothing stands between us. And in the same way, I am going to the places in My people and healing them from shame and guilt, and every other thing that stops them from loving themselves and others. For how can you love your neighbor as yourself if you cannot love yourself with these things in the way?

The Restoration of Christ's Body

"Barry, I am bringing My people back to kitchen tables, living rooms, and front porches to live and function as families, sharing My love with anyone who joins them. It is not about striving. It is about being. It is about living in the moment with Me and what I am doing—for I am in you and with you! It does not have to be complicated! I am calling you to the simplicity of pure worship once again and out of religious mindsets! (Photo via Pexels)

"Rest assured that you will be restored and refreshed by the waves of My grace upon you as we take back the land the enemy has stolen!"

Holy is the word of the Lord.

God's Love

1 John 4:7–21 (TPT):

"Those who are loved by God, let His love continually pour from you to one another, because God is love. Everyone who loves is fathered by God and experiences an intimate knowledge of Him. The one who doesn't love has yet to know God, for God is love.

"The light of God's love shined within us when He sent His matchless Son into the world so that we might live through Him. This is love: He loved us long before we loved Him. It was His love, not ours. He proved it by sending His Son to be the pleasing sacrificial offering to take away our sins.

"Delightfully loved ones, if He loved us with such tremendous love, then 'loving one another' should be our way of life! No one has ever gazed upon the fullness of God's splendor. But if we love one another, God makes His permanent home in us, and we make our permanent home in Him, and His love is brought to its full expression in us. And He has given us His Spirit within us so that we can have the assurance that He lives in us and that we live in Him. (Photo via Piqsels)

"Moreover, we have seen with our own eyes and can testify to the truth that Father God has sent His Son to be the Savior of the world. Those who give thanks that Jesus is the Son of God live in God, and God lives in them. We have come into an intimate experience with God's love, and we trust in the love He has for us.

"God is love! Those who are living in love are living in God, and God lives through them. By living in God, love has been brought to its full expression in us so that we may fearlessly face the day of judgment, because all that Jesus now is, so are we in this world. Love never brings fear, for fear is always related to punishment. But love's perfection drives the fear of punishment far from our hearts. Whoever walks constantly afraid of punishment has not reached love's perfection. Our love for others is our grateful response to the love God first demonstrated to us.

"Anyone can say, 'I love God,' yet have hatred toward another Believer. This makes him a phony, because if you don't love a brother or sister, whom you can see, how can you truly love God, whom you can't see? For He has given us this command: whoever loves God must also demonstrate love to others."
