I hear the Lord saying that 2025 is the year to build according to the pattern of the Holy Spirit. This is not the time to rely on your understanding but to wait for the divine blueprint to be revealed. You cannot build correctly without revelation from above. The Lord is releasing upon you the supernatural wisdom, understanding, and stamina that was granted to Nehemiah to rebuild the broken walls of Jerusalem. Just as Nehemiah carried a burden to restore what was ruined, the Lord has placed a burden on you. Although it may feel static or dormant now, I see the Lord breathing life into what seems dead and abandoned. Projects, dreams, and visions that you thought were lost will experience revival again.
In the Hebrew calendar, 2025 corresponds to the year 5785, which symbolizes grace, completion, and new beginnings. It carries a prophetic message of restoration and rebuilding, of finishing what was started and stepping into a new phase of purpose. The Lord is aligning His people for kingdom assignments, calling them to build with divine order and intentionality.
Just like the story of Nehemiah, Nehemiah sought the Lord in prayer and fasting before taking any steps. The Lord gave him a clear strategy, a blueprint, for rebuilding Jerusalem’s walls. Though he faced resistance and opposition from enemies, he remained steadfast, mobilized others to work together, and completed the wall in just 52 days. The Lord is saying that, like Nehemiah, you will face opposition, but He has already empowered you to overcome it. This time, you will build with greater intention and precision, following the leading of the Holy Spirit.
I see the Lord addressing the mental and emotional battles you’ve faced. The constant headaches, anxiety, and confusion were fiery darts from the enemy, but the Lord says, “You have overcome by the blood of the Lamb and the word of your testimony.” The Spirit of the Lord is bringing you liberty, for where His Spirit is, freedom reigns. He is quickening your heart and strengthening your hands for the assignment ahead. The burden you carry is not by accident—it is a divine calling to restore, rebuild, and bring life where there was desolation.
The Lord says, “All your struggles are coming to an end.” This is the season to rise with boldness and confidence. He is empowering you to build again—this time with greater faith, divine insight, and supernatural strength. Just as Nehemiah faced opposition, you must expect resistance, but the Lord is saying “I am with you. I will fight for you. Every plan of the enemy against you will not prosper “
It’s time to step out in faith and begin again. Things are shifting drastically in your favor. What the enemy meant for harm, the Lord is turning around for your good. Get ready to build again, more intentionally, more boldly, and most importantly, according to the pattern of the Holy Spirit. Let 2025 be the year of divine restoration, purpose, and fulfillment. You are an overcomer, your steps will be divinely ordered in 2025.
