Yesterday in prayer I asked God to help me understand everything that's been going on: the darkness and confusion that so many of His precious people are experiencing: what is His perspective, His purpose? In response I received a single word and an accompanying picture. Both were very clear, so although I don't think they... Continue Reading →
A different flow this morning. I wasn't going to share this in the midst of everything else that's been going on here, but this morning I felt encouragement to do so - that now is not the time to hold back. The enemy would love to use our present circumstances to make us cower in... Continue Reading →
For those who have been battling to hold on to faith for breakthrough, this title (and post) is for you. You know I'm in that same place and I want to share the encouragement God has been giving me. It's for us all. I was recently praying over why I feel so much resistance over... Continue Reading →
Last night, while praying with a dear friend, I received a picture of a large wrecking ball smashing through a great dam that had been holding back many waters. My friend and I had both been sensing that it's time for breakthrough, and this seemed to be a really clear confirmation, especially as the words... Continue Reading →
For several weeks now, I have been hearing God say "stand". I freely admit that I have not fully understood what He was referring to, so I have been praying and seeking clarity. This morning it seems to be coming a bit more into focus, and I felt a prompt to share as much as I can... Continue Reading →

For some of them, physical illness has made them feel... Continue Reading →
In yesterday's post (that I actually wrote in December, but didn't feel released to share until writing this one) the focus was very much on the furnace as a place of immense heat and pressure for the purpose of purification. But yesterday God picked up the furnace theme again. I was expressing to Him that I'd been... Continue Reading →
Recently God has been speaking to me about being in His furnace. It's mostly been a very personal word so I haven't shared much about that specifically here. But today as I was studying His Word I saw something that made me realise some of this is not just for me. So if you identify with being... Continue Reading →
This morning I was talking to God about the struggles of this season. I know that in Christ I am acceptable, loved, pure in His sight. I know He has called me to rest in His love, and I love doing that. And yet still there is part of me that is restless, wanting to know what He... Continue Reading →
the clouds are clearing I was chatting with God this morning - pouring out my heart to Him, and asking him what was on His - and He spoke some words that were very similar to those He spoke the other day. I wasn't sure whether or not to release them here, but felt He... Continue Reading →
