Hi Tina!

Remember, even Moses didn't get it right and had to have second guessed a few things when he struck the rock with his staff. While he understood what God wanted to say, his past delivery, due to spiritual frustration (in my opinion) was such that it resulted in some obstacles (even a curse) flowing into his life. We must learn to deliver not only words but life as an instrument of love and not from frustration or even anger.

Through the years the Lord has taught me to die to spiritual frustration, and other negative emotions including anger. He has brought deep healing to places within my heart as I believe he is with you, Tina, and there are chain reaction reasons. I am certainly not perfect. In fact just last year I had a very major breakdown in my relationship with God due to carnal rationalization and decision making. It may take years for us to work some of this emotions and mind-sets out. In the interim we need to seek healing for our emotions and go to the Lord and ask him to heal us so that when I cross that bridge again; I do it more successfully. Spiritual maturity is our goal - for it is only with spiritual maturity that natural choices and life changing decisions can be made or exercised with wisdom. There are many “heart attacks” happening in the body of Christ in this hour and the Holy Spirit is the attacker!


Chapter 13 is known as the love chapter in the bible. Paul tells the Corinthians when they operated prophetically to do so from a spirit of love. When you and I look into the heart of a person and see negative images we should respond to that imagery not in a hurtful manner but in love.

1 Corinthians 14:3 says, “But the one who prophesies speaks to people for their strengthening, encouraging and comfort.” When I release a word over someone it should fit within this mold. It should be positive and it should build up. Even when the Lord wants you to rebuke someone he can help you to do it in such a way that the person is left feeling built up after you have done it. In other words, what we sow, we will certainly reap. I must continually ask myself: “what have I prophetically sown in the past?” My present situations will reflect my past sowing just as Moses clearly figured out.

With much love, dk

Hi Tina,

This isn't a 'thus says the Lord" but just want to encourage you. As urgent as the need of direction may be, I would encourage you to put some soaking music on( or not, however you choose to do so) and be still. Lay all your dreams, hopes, desires, cares, needs, etc. on the altar. And allow the Peace of God to fill your heart and mind and lead you. Take hold like a pitbull and lay before Him as long as it takes, til all is surrendered and His peace rules.

There isn't always a quick fix but He sees and knows what you have need of. I think what Danny is sharing( and to be honest I didn't read through the whole of but skimmed) is He is after our hearts.

~He's Faithful and True~

much Love,

The Lord longs to be gracious to you; He rises to show you compassion. For the Lord is a God of justice. Blessed are all who wait for him! Be confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.  Psalm 138:. The LORD will perfect that which concerns you, HIS mercy endures forever, He will not forsake  the works of his own hands or cast you away  when your strength is gone. Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding, in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight.

⁶ But He gives more grace. Therefore He says:

Humility Cures Worldliness

⁷ Therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you. ⁸ Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded. ⁹ Lament and mourn and weep! Let your laughter be turned to mourning and your joy to gloom. ¹⁰ Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and He will lift you up.

Do Not Judge a Brother

¹¹ Do not speak evil of one another, brethren. He who speaks evil of a brother and judges his brother, speaks evil of the law and judges the law. But if you judge the law, you are not a doer of the law but a judge. ¹² There is one Lawgiver, who is able to save and to destroy. Who are you to judge another?

Do Not Boast About Tomorrow

¹³ Come now, you who say, Today or tomorrow we will go to such and such a city, spend a year there, buy and sell, and make a profit; ¹⁴ whereas you do not know what will happen tomorrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapor that appears for a little time and then vanishes away. ¹⁵ Instead you ought to say, If the Lord wills, we shall live and do this or that. ¹⁶ But now you boast in your arrogance. All such boasting is evil.

¹⁷ Therefore, to him who knows to do good and does not do it, to him it is sin.

Tina... there is now NO condemnation to those of us who are IN Christ Jesus... our 'journey' is one with NO MISTAKES ... only LESSONS ... God has written every one of our days in HIS book before one came to pass... the Word says that IN EVERY THING give thanks for this is the will of God concerning you.. not FOR everything...

We need to live in the GRACE and MERCY the death and resurrection of Jesus bought for us... ALL of our sins were forgiven us on that cross... A L L

We were metamorphised not just 'changed' we were re-created into a different person CHRIST .. we died and our life in now hid IN CHRIST.  Jesus lives in us and through us ... and he is going to be exposing fruitless deeds of darkness and allowing what others judge us for, to come back upon themselves... that is why we need to keep our mouths shut and judge our own selves and not others...

I hope this word ministers to you, cause I know it did to me... right now, I am finding that laying down the 'titles, roles, ministries' all the outward stuff and just admitting that we are POWERLESS .. we are NOT God and its time to CAST ALL OUR CARES on Jesus... we are to REST and cease from striving .. to stand still and see the salvation of the Lord...

May I encourage you to lay ALL aside and just 'labor to enter HIS rest'?  You see if things in the natural are shut down its because YOU are required in the Presence of your King ... you are requested to minister to HIM and lay aside outward dealings... it is time to seek the Lord for YOU .. just return to being IN HIM and let go of others you have no power or control over anyway... focus on YOU... take care of YOU... let Him access YOUR soul and open the closet doors and bring light to the darkness within ... there is much healing He desires to do within you... so you can, in His timing, go back out and minister... hurt people, hurt other people... intentionally or not... so allow him to HEAL YOU ... let this word minister hope and a future to you sister!

Praying His kingdom come and His will be done in your life and situation upon this earth AS IT IS IN HEAVEN....

The Sons of Issachar Have Been Re-Activated!

The Bible tells us little about these prophetic "sons of Issachar" (I Chron.12:32) except that they apparently possessed an incredible prophetic sensitivity to discern, to distinguish, and to truly know the spiritual "now" seasons of God as He moved upon the earth. They were especially adept at knowing what God's people should do, that is, how God's people should respond to the particular season of God they were in at the moment.

"And of the children of Issachar, which had understanding of the times to know what God's people should do."

As a prophetic "son of Issachar" I declare by the Spirit of God that a wonderful new seven-year season, a "now" season, a "Jubilee" season is upon you right now. It is time "now" to rejoice, for God has made your enemies His footstool! (Ps.110:1) Just think of that: He has made YOUR enemies, HIS footstool. Frightening isn't it?

Today, Today, Today

Although true prophetic skills must include the ability to know beforehand what God is doing (prophetic foreknowledge), a true son of Issachar will know TODAY what God is doing right here, right now. I have been impressed of the Lord with just such a "now" word for you, a "word in season," a powerful and liberating prophetic word for you TODAY! With this "now" prophetic word there is no waiting required, there will be no delays, and no futuristic application will be necessary. In this case, today means today! Now means now!

Literally, right now, as you read this prophetic declaration God is at work in your life vindicating you. He is busy "behind the scenes" working on your behalf. A new seven-year period of great spiritual release is upon you! Your years of persecution and suffering "for His name's sake" are about to pay off.

The Past Seven Years!

The year 2004 marked the end of a brutal spiritual season for many. At first I did not discern this or the magnitude of this new 2005 supernatural season we are now experiencing. But I now believe it was and is a truly awesome, Church-wide, go-to-the-next-level unprecedented supernatural shift. One supernatural season has ended and a distinctly new and better supernatural season in God has begun!

"One supernatural season has ended and a distinctly new and better supernatural season in God has begun, says the Lord!"

Wounded Soldiers

Unnoticed by most, the Holy Spirit began to move around mid-January, setting off a chain reaction of spiritual events for all who have "endured hardship as a soldier of Jesus Christ." If you've been enduring hardship, if you've been wounded, especially by "friendly fire" this new season is just for you! You're about to be healed.

In a word, this new season is all about vindication. It's not about you exacting vengeance or "getting even." Not at all. Instead, it's about vindication from God for the past seven years as you have endured suffering as His faithful soldier.

Not Guilty!

Yes, you are about to be rewarded. The truth is about to come out, you are about to be freed from alleged charges against you. You are about to be absolved and acquitted. The Lord is about to announce over you, "Not guilty!" Victims are about to rejoice and your accusers are about to be silenced!

You're not being paroled, you're being acquitted!

Back to the Sons of Issachar

This truly invaluable supernatural ability that these prophetic servants possessed to know what God was doing at that precise moment in time in the spirit realm certainly served these "sons" well. This precise prophetic ability is what put them on the prophetic map so to speak. It's what got them noticed, it's what they built their reputation on. They earned the trust of those who listened to them for one simple reason: what they said prophetically was accurate, applicable, beneficial, and most of all very, very timely.

Like a "son of Issachar" I often find myself writing to the church when I discern a new season is upon Her. I believe we have just entered such a season-a very, very exciting season indeed! I also believe I have a very, very timely word of encouragement for the church. And this includes you!

Your Day Is At Hand!

I believe that countless believers just like you have lived through a seven-year period of great personal hardship, especially in the area of damaged or even severed personal and ministry relationships. All this is going to change rapidly. If you've been victimized by sinners or saints, get ready. Your day is at hand!

Specifically, you have been waiting for vindication from past injustices, betrayals, and abandonments and the subsequent disillusionment it has created.

Frankly, the root problem has been about witchcraft in the church. The spirit of witchcraft that has decimated and dissected you is finally being exposed. You paid a great price for your integrity, your character, and your honesty. Yes, it cost you a great deal to be a true follower of Jesus Christ. You may have even appeared to many to be the "bad guy' when in fact you were actually the victim of a spiritual crime. Again, all that is going to change. The Lord would say to you today,

"The days of your morning are over, your Jubilee year is now upon you. I have begun your vindication. It will come swiftly."

Ezekiel said it this way, "None of my words will be prolonged any more, but the word which I the Lord have spoken to you shall be done now." (Eze.12:28)

A Word For Leaders

I declare prophetically that a season of great vindication and long overdue justice for you, especially if you are one of His leaders, is upon you right now. God has already begun the necessary process of vindicating you. You have suffered betrayal, false accusation, broken promises, and abandonment long enough.

As a result you've been disillusioned about the call of God upon your life far too long. Be encouraged: The Lord is delivering you from the results of past problems, situations, and circumstances that delayed, or in some extreme cases, actually robbed you of your destiny in God. I hear the Lord saying to you,

"All will be as it was suppose to be, says the Lord. There will be no part of your destiny delayed, and no part of your destiny denied. Is there anything too hard for me?"

Vindication, Vindication, Vindication

Indeed, vindication is the key word, the "now" word of the Lord. I hear it in my spirit loud and clear for you. To all His wonderful and wounded warriors, to all who have suffered abuse at the hands of others, the Lord would comfort you with these words in season.

"I am vindicating you now. You are being exonerated now, you are about to experience true justice now."

Power, Gifting and Authority

You are now about to experience the promotion in God you have waited patiently for. The seven years of explosive increase of power, gifting, and authority is yours for the taking. Indeed, you are going to the next level. The promises of God in your life are about to be wonderfully and powerfully fulfilled very quickly.

Now here's the hard part of this prophetic promise, the part you will really need "ears to hear." Often a prophecy's impact is only as good as the response to it. Whether or not this prophecy for the church impacts you personally, depends entirely on your proper and biblical response.

A prophecy's impact is only as good as your response to it.

No doubt you will be asked by God to participate in the healing and restoration of formerly broken relationships, especially with Christians. Please do so graciously and humbly, just as Christ would. Say yes to any and all whom are looking to be reconciled with you.

Olive Branches

I predict that people, saved and unsaved, from your past will soon visit you. They will come with olive branches in their hands looking to establish peace with you. I urge you to accept their offering and participate enthusiastically in the peace process.

God's part during this new seven year season will be to vindicate you in incredible ways. Like Joseph you are coming out of your dungeon and are about to experience God's great favor upon your life, a true season of amazing promotion awaits you.

However, your part, and this is critical, is to "not rejoice when your enemies fall." (Pro.24:17)

So, welcome to your seven-year Jubilee season!

Julie, thank you for your encouraging words. The love of Christ is evident in your postings...

Tina, if you can separate yourself from the situation at least temporarily, for your safety and if children are involved...I experienced a similar situation. Its been 3 years and I'm still recovering but I can claim the victory. You are experiencing this for your growth (I know its so hard to understand that) and so you can help others in the future. God takes marriage very seriously but like Julie said, there are no mistakes --He works in everthing for our good.

He is calling us to lay aside "titles" and to see our image in Him only. We are lowly slaves and He desires that we disappear and die to self so that He might shine in our lives. After choosing to deny myself completely and all of my desires and strivings (work) in order to soak and really hear the Lord -- I begged the Lord to show me that He knows me; to truly intimately hear from Jesus. I began to see 1:11 which led me to research. I have been seeing these numbres on occassion for years but I never found this scriptural reference and felt that God really spoke through this sign until 2 days ago (Eph 1:9-12):

⁹ Having made known unto us the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure which he hath purposed in himself:

¹⁰ That in the dispensation of the fulness of times he might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven, and which are on earth; even in him:

¹¹ In whom also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestinated according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his own will:

¹² That we should be to the praise of his glory, who first trusted in Christ.

He KNOWS His own --every circumstance, trial,and period of testing-- and He has a purpose in it all. To bring us to His feet for HIS PURPOSES.

So lean on Him; I know its hard to focus inwardingly when you're being attacked from every side. Victory comes when you make the choice to focus EVERYTHING on Christ.

Blessings,

Cassandra

((Cassandra)),  Holy Spirit bearing witness with our spirit cries out Abba Father. We are sons(not gender specific) of God, having received the Spirit of Adoption. He is our Papa : ) The law says "slave", the Spirit says,"son". Once being born of Spirit, it is a journey of the soul(thought life), out of Eygpt( hard-task master) into the Promised Land( Christ) being conformed to. One thing that takes place within the soul(thought life) as we center on Christ, feeding on Him, partaking of Him, etc. is the accuser of the brethren is cast down. The one who stands in the temple exalting 'himself' against God is cast down and out and the glory of God(Christ Jesus, the First born of many brethren, the First born of many sons) takes residence.  No longer slaves, but heirs of God and joint-heirs with Christ. He is not ashamed to call us brethren but the accuser shames. It is the spirit of anti-christ at work.

We've been washed in the Blood of the Lamb, we only have need now that our feet be washed as we've traveled through this world and taken on/in the thought producing ways of the world system. Whether through circumstance, people( the well intentioned or not well intentioned misinformed), religion, traditions of men, doctrines of men, doctrines of devils, etc. He washes away, removes and makes new( renews) our mind by and through the Living Water of His Word.

We understand a little more then, the battle within the soul life(mind, thoughts, will, emotions, intellect) but thank God the battle is the Lord's and He that began a good work in us, is Faithful to complete it. He never leaves us nor forsakes us, all we need do is surrender, fall into His Everlasting arms( I fully understand that the surrender may sound more easily said than done..as it is death to self). Oh what joy and peace though as the soul is awakened, resurrected into our new identity!

much Love and blessings, healing and wholeness all as we journey onward into the New Jerusalem Life abiding within and know, you're not alone in the journey..

Edit: just found this picture ..love the drawing/wooing that it emits!

Hi Tina!

You have been given a wealth of good advice. I have been in the divorce process for three years now.  This has been an emotional storm like none other that I have experienced.  Thank God you have people praying with you and for you.  It is this intercession that will help you to endure this up hill climb.

Recently, this scripture came to my attention:

"In whom also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestinated according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his own will:"
(Ephesians 1:11)  When I began to meditate on it more and more, I realized that I could trust God to keep HIS promises no matter what my circumstances.  The more I learned to trust HIM, the more I heard. Then the question became one of my obedience. (See Danny's earlier comments).

When the Holy Spirit speaks we must be certain that it is he who is speaking and be obedient in carrying out the direction given.  In my case, the Lord said that I could not leave my husband or file for the divorce. I was miserable, didn't understand this direction, didn't think it was fair, but I was obedient.  In 2009 my husband just came home one day and said that he was leaving without any explanation!  Strangely, I had instant peace with his decision.

When the Holy Spirit is asking us to do something, at times it may seem to us unrealistic, burdensome, unfair, and extremely challenging.  But what I have learned to respect is that God knows the end, we don't!  When we lean on the scripture above and others, we understand that no matter what is happening to us it's what is happening in us that is important.  And what is happening in us is our being transformed into Christ's image.  We are being made stronger, more submissive, humble, wiser, more loving, compassionate and powerful in order to carry out HIS will for us and those around us.

Trust me.  Your hearing will become more acute!  God knows that you are going to make mistakes along the way.  RELAX.  It is all in HIS control.

Abundant Love to You!
