Something has shifted! Did you feel it?
Yesterday, I woke up and had an intense urge to intercede, not only for us and what God is about to do, but for many others who are so very close to their breakthroughs.
I am feeling the spiritual atmosphere, the weight of the battle in the spirit. I have a strong sense that God is about to do some pretty amazing miracles and the enemy is doing all he can to discourage, to solicit fear and to get people to walk away - give up just before breakthrough comes! I am grieving for those who already have walked away. There are some BIG giants up ahead, but God gives us everything we need for Victory! If we look at the giants, we will be like those who didn't get to enter their Promised Land. We must be courageous and keep our eyes fixed on Jesus!
But thanks be to God, who always leads us in triumph in Christ, and manifests through us the sweet aroma of the knowledge of Him in every place. 2 Corinthians 2:14

“You’re Standing at the Edge of Your Jordan Right Now!”
By Lonnie Mackley Apr. 7th, 2018
For many of us who have been in the Wilderness for a long time, we nowsense that we are at the end of it and we are standing right at the edge of entering our promised land ministry life. We are at a place where we are tired, weary, and really not up for anything beyond God's miracles to restore us. I want to encourage you today, that just like Jesus waited for Lazarus to be really dead before the miracle of resurrection came, God has allowed your life to become good and stinking dead before He resurrects you with new life, new strength, new provision, new vision, new power, new hope, and new giftings to help the many people he wants to help.
God knows you are eager to run across your spiritual Jordan River right now and that you feel like you cannot take even one more day of the Wilderness, but He wants you good and dead before He performs His string of miracles to resurrect you. Partly because you need to be stable and purified to stand during His times of blessing; and also because He wants you and others to see that your restoration was a complete miracle and work of His hands, and not of human hands. This is a time to finish whatever needs to be finished and to be listening for His voice to speak new words into your heart. You will soon be given the order to cross over.
ISA 40:29 He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak. 30 Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; 31 but those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.
Today, this gets posted - and confirms what we heard.

WHAT IF Gods desires is to uncover and reveal something even GREATER to you by His apparent “withholding”, your request?!

There is a cost to following Jesus! God tells us in His word, to count the cost! He never said it would be easy. He said pick up your cross and follow Me. Sadly some choose to walk away from the path God has for them. With your prayers and continued support and encouragement, we will walk this out. We know there are lots of obstacles and giants trying to keep us from moving forward, but by God's grace we will. If you are being asked by God to do something and you're hesitant, or maybe you're afraid, instead choose to trust God. Know that the blessings outweigh whatever it is you're giving up. He always has good for those who follow Him wholeheartedly.
