Recently, I heard the Lord say, “Change your clothes.” When He spoke there was a very strong tone in the Lord’s voice that communicated the sense of urgency, ascension, and a ‘shaking off’.
When I leaned in and listened to the Lord, I heard the Lord say:
“My people, there are many of you who are still wearing the “clothes” of yesterday. You are continuing to wear the clothes of the past season, and I am calling you to shake off these clothes. It’s time to shake off these clothes and to move into the new assignments that I have for you. For I say unto you, that this is the hour where I am calling you to live from your seat, in a way that you have not experienced before. For I say unto you, that there is a violent shaking off of all things that have tried to hinder you and there is a violent shaking off of things that have hindered you.
I say unto you, BE UNTANGLED and BE UNTETHERED from all that has hindered you. It’s time to wear and receive the new clothes that I have for you in this new season, and they are the new mantles that I have for you to wear and walk in, in this hour. For I say unto you, allow My fire to come upon the old clothes that you have been wearing. For I am going deeper in exposing limiting mindsets, lies that have kept you bound, old ways of operating, and carnal and man-made ways of moving with Me and thinking.
I say unto you, PROPHESY! Listen to My voice, My people, raise your voice in this hour, and PROPHESY your way out of the old clothes. PROPHESY your way out of the old grave clothes and step into the NEW GRACE CLOTHES that I have for you in this new season. For I say unto you, that there are new levels of grace that are coming upon you in this season for the new mantles that I am placing upon you. For I say unto you, many of you have settled under the old clothes and remained in the old clothes of the old season.
There has also been a manufacturing – a moving in your own strength and past season strategies and ways – that is taking place as you continue to wear the old clothes and continue to move in ways that I am not moving in any longer. SHAKE IT OFF!
I say unto you, that I am baptizing you in a fresh boldness in this hour and causing you to arise in your governmental authority in Me, in levels and ways that you have never seen before, but you must be resolved to lay aside the clothes of the last season and receive the new clothes and new mantles of the new season. As you resolve to change your clothes in this hour, watch My fire come and DELIVER YOU from the fear of man SUDDENLY and lead you into BOLDNESS.
For I say unto you, that there is a NEW WAY of thinking for many of you. I am bringing you deeper into a level of revelation and ascending into the mind of Christ to receive and perceive the strategies and the assignments that I have for you in this hour, and it is going to require a REFRAMING, a REWORKING, and a REWIRING.
Do not be afraid of the unfamiliar, for as you embrace the unfamiliar and allow My Spirit to reframe, rework, and rewire the way that you have been operating and moving with Me, allow Me to UPGRADE your insight and thinking to being led by Me and My Spirit in moving and walking in these new mantles and assignments.
You will move into the UNFAMILIAR spaces and begin to co-labor with Me in new ways, to see My Spirit move through you in unexpected ways and ways you have not ever thought you would move in, with Me. I say unto you, that for many of you, the very nature of your ministries are about to change as I lead you in new ways. Again I say, BE NOT AFRAID of the NEW!
But I say unto you, this was always part of the plan, MY PLAN. Unfamiliar to you, not unfamiliar to Me. For I say unto you, that you have been called for such a time as this, and I am bringing you into a greater fullness of your calling in this day and in this hour. And for many of you – as you change your clothes and shake off the things that I am highlighting to you in this hour to let go of and embrace My Spirit in teaching you and leading you, upgrading your insight and thinking – you will find yourselves in the trajectory of moving into new terrains with Me.
I say unto you, that for many of you, I am leading you into a completely new era of the realms that I will have you move and operate in: and as you continue to live in deep intimacy and humility before Me, allowing Me to teach you and lead you, you will see My Glory manifest and come in ways you have never seen before.
I say unto you, be sensitive to the leading of My Spirit in this shift of season and this shift of clothing. There is a violent shaking off of clothes of the old season: but in the receiving of the new clothes for this new season – this greater awakening to your authority in Me and receiving your new mantles for new assignments – do not assume you know the movement.
You must remain teachable, dependent, and sensitive to My leading, for how I have led you in times past will not be the way in which I will lead you in this new day: and if you rely upon how I have moved and led you in the past, you will hinder that which I am trying to teach you in this hour. I am calling you to a deep SENSITIVITY to my Spirit so that you will not STIFLE My Spirit.”
I then heard two scriptures surrounding me loudly:
Proverbs 3:5-8:
Trust in the Lord completely, and do not rely on your own opinions. With all your heart rely on him to guide you, and he will lead you in every decision you make. Become intimate with him in whatever you do and he will lead you wherever you go. Don’t think for a moment that you know it all, for wisdom comes when you adore him with undivided devotion and avoid everything that’s wrong. (TPT)
Psalms 32:8-10
I will stay close to you, instructing you and guiding you along the pathway for your life. I will advise you along the way and lead you forth with my eyes as your guide. So don’t make it difficult, don’t be stubborn when I take you where you’ve not been before. Don’t make me tug you and pull you along. Just come with me. (TPT)
“My people, I am calling you into the deeper places of surrender and sensitivity. I am calling you into the deeper depths of leaning into My instruction and leading. Do not be swayed by the unexpected places and ways I am leading you, but embrace wholeheartedly where I am leading you, knowing that in Me you live and move and have your being (Acts 17:28).
I say unto you, that many of you are moving into the BEGINNINGS of walking in what you have been BIRTHING for a very long time. The time has come. The kairos time has arrived for you and it is imperative, in this hour, that you are being led by MY EYES and My insight to not stifle that which I am doing and where I am moving.
It’s time to embrace the unfamiliar. It’s time to shake off the clothes of the old season. And many of you will see a mighty transformation take place as you step into the new anointing upon these new mantles – as you step further into who you are and what I have called you to. The boldness, grace, and insight you will walk in, as you continue to live sensitive to My leading and in deep intimacy, will ASTOUND you as you see the power of My Spirit move through you in the most unexpected ways and places.
The temptation to fear will come when I place you in places, My people, to open your mouths to speak. But I say unto you, as you step into these new and unexpected places I am calling you into – in deep surrender and dependence – upon you are some of the greatest demonstrations of My power to fill your mouth with My words and wisdom, that you have not experienced before.
I will crown you with My wisdom as you follow My leading and walk in sensitivity and adoration of Me. Your mouth is being BRANDED by My fire and My oil to be a vessel of releasing My heavenly wisdom that will leave you in awe and wonder of My insight and knowledge. As you walk in deeper sensitivity to My Spirit and My leading, watch the increase of My solutions and strategies that will be released through many of you in this hour. Do not stop asking for wisdom (James 1:5) and interceding for insight (Proverbs 2).
Arise, My people, in understanding in this hour. Arise, in this hour, in wisdom and insight as you live at My feet in deep humility and the fear of the Lord.”
