The word I have today is one of the most powerful words I have received in a long time, possibly ever. This word came to me early in the morning while I was seeking the Lord. The Holy Spirit spoke this word very deeply to my spirit, and he was speaking to me about his remnant in 2025.
The word has three parts and the first part is that God is wanting to speak to us, one on one. The second part is, we are going to understand the word at a deeper level as the Lord reveals new revelation to us. The final part is, we have to follow the Holy Spirit in every area of our lives. In this season, our ministries, churches, and lives must be rooted and centered around the guidance of the Holy Spirit.
First and foremost, God is the head of everything, and he always will be. Things are going to be hard for ministries and churches that do not see God as the head of everything. In Luke 11:28 it says, “God will bless all who listen to the word of God and carefully obey everything that they hear.” God is about to abundantly bless those who listen and obey his commands. John 8:47 says, “If you really know God you will listen, receive and respond in faith to his words.”
It’s this simple, it is a mandate from heaven to listen and respond to every word God says. We are in a separation season, if you want to fulfill everything that God has called you to do, you must listen intently and obey quickly every time God speaks.
Romans 10:17 says, “So, faith comes from hearing and hearing through the word of Christ.” Notice how all of these scriptures emphasize the importance of listening. Our ears must be tuned to the Holy Spirit at all times, and our faith must be stronger than ever before. James 1:22 says, “Don’t just listen to the word of truth and not respond to it, deceiving yourself.” The word and the voice of God are our compass in this season.
The second part of the word is the Word. The Bible is our source, our guide, and our weapon to fight against every spirit of darkness in this season. The Lord was highlighting to me the importance of us knowing the word of God. The word of God is what guides and leads us into all truth. The Bible cuts away flesh and changes life by the power of the holy spirit. I believe in this season, the Bible is going to come alive to us in a new way. Recently, in my quiet time, the word has been jumping off the page at me and inspiring me to run my race like never before.
Matthew 4:4 says, “But he answered, it is written, man cannot live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God.” This is a season where you have to pay close attention to every word in the Bible that God speaks. Also, we cannot continue to just “add in” the Bible to our daily routine. The Bible says that we have to pick up our cross and follow him daily, meaning that the word has to become active in every area of our lives.
The final portion of the word was the holy spirit. John 14:26 says, “But when the Father sends the spirit of holiness, the one like me who set you free, he will teach you all things in my name. And he will inspire you to remember every word that I’ve told you.” Every single time we pick up our Bible and read the word of God, it is placed inside of us. When the word is inside of you, the Holy Spirit will bring it back to your remembrance in times of need.
The Holy Spirit is our advocate who instructs, guides, and leads us in the ways of God. We have to follow every impulse that the Holy Spirit gives us, and our churches have to be filled with the power of the Holy Spirit. John 16:13 says, “When the spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all truth and he will not speak of his own authority, but whatever he hears, he will speak” Think about this, Jesus is at the right hand of the Father interceding for us, and the Holy Spirit hears what Jesus is saying and moves on that authority.
This hour, this time, and this season is one of the most crucial we have ever experienced. The word of God must be our lamp, God must be our authority, and the Holy Spirit must be the voice of truth in our lives. If we continue to follow the path of righteousness, there will be great rewards for those who diligently seek God’s heart.
