I’m really excited to bring you the Word of the Lord for 2020. We just finished meeting with a group of the Global Prophetic Movement from 42 nations, and we gleaned so many things – in fact, so much more than I’m going to be able to give in this particular sharing with you. We’re going to do some transcripts [from that gathering] and pull some more of the Word of the Lord out from it. But I’m going to share with you some things here that are life-changing.
2019 was the year for joyful increase. And many people told me they believed for that, and they did see an increase financially or an increase of blessing or a new job or a new house. We know perhaps it wasn’t that way for everyone, but in general, we are still in that season of increase.
The prophetic words continue to say the increase is coming, and it will be wonderful. New Era2020 is significant in that it is literally a new era. One of the words God has given is that we’re going to grow into our own skin. What do I mean by that? We’re going to grow into the purpose of God that He has for us. It’s time to intentionally say: what is my purpose, where am I going in life, and how do I achieve that? And how do I do come into conversion – a place where our full gifts, our full abilities are used? It’s a very exciting season.
Of course, it will be a challenging season as well. Any time you’re going to a new level – we used to say, “New levels, new devils” – there will be some resistance. Think about going into the Promised Land, how there was resistance and there were giants that met them when they went into the Promised Land.
If you’ve heard me speak very much, you know what I say: If you’re going into your Promised Land (your purpose, your destiny, what God has for you), and you’re not having any pushback (there are no giants in the land), then you’re not going in the right direction. There will be Jerichos to take, so there will be battles, but it’s going to be exciting. When you’re going the way the Lord has for you, there is that surety inside of you most of the time that, “Wow, this is what I am made for. I’m just created to do this.” And I believe that for you.
All of you are listening to this, and we want to give you hope for your future. Maybe you’ve gone through terrible times of loss, terrible times when you feel like you’ve had setbacks, but I want to say to you: believe God. Believe God that He does have something wonderful for you, no matter how many things have happened to you, how much loss. I think many of us in the past few years have lost family members; there are things that have happened to us that we didn’t want to happen. Sometimes it can make us feel out of control. But this is a year where we are literally starting, not only a new decade, but a new era.
