Today’s Reading:
Isaiah 58
Shout it loud and clear! Don’t hold back! Let your voice be like a trumpet blast! Declare to my people their rebellion and to Jacob’s tribes their sin!
Isaiah 58:1 TPT
I heard the Spirit of Active, Moving, Living God say,
New media is here. Old media is out. Media giants are falling. They have invaded homes and trampled on people’s lives, on their personal spaces and on their freedoms mercilessly and like an unruly pack of wild animals. They have held themselves up as the great authoritative source of intimidation and as elites. But the time for them to vacate the scene is here. The time for repairing the entry points to your homes and within your homes and private spaces is here.
Then Yahweh will answer you when you pray. When you cry out for help, he will say, ‘I am here.’ “If you banish every form of oppression, the scornful accusations, and vicious slander, and if you offer yourselves in compassion for the hungry and relieve those in misery, then your dawning light will rise in the darkness and your gloom will turn into noonday splendor! Yahweh will always guide you where to go and what to do. He will fill you with refreshment even when you are in a dry, difficult place. He will continually restore strength to you, so you will flourish like a well-watered garden and like an ever-flowing, trustworthy spring of blessing.
Isaiah 58:9-11 TPT
Yours is a new wine. You have a new taste and a new sound that the old guard cannot comprehend. But for those with open hearts and open minds, for those who are willing to approach with even just a small amount of openness — they will taste and hear the new thing that I Am doing in the space the media once behaved as if they owned. It was never their space. It was always the property of the free man, yet they invaded it. You unwittingly and naively let them in, and they destroyed and trampled on what was yours. They went into places they had no business going once they were given entry. But the time has come for them to exit this space entirely. The mess and destruction they’ve left behind is evident, but it is also able to be repaired. This will be a time like Nehemiah, to rebuild the walls that once served to protect your family and your minds. You must run out the media of old from your spaces. Their time and their right to trample the place of the free man has ended.
Rise up and usher them out. Run them out, and enjoy the peace that is marked with their leaving. Enjoy the free space that is marked by their exit. It’s time to occupy the scene.
Your people will rebuild long-deserted ruins, building anew on foundations laid long before you. You will be known as Repairers of the Cities and Restorers of Communities. “If you stop pursuing your own desires on my holy day, and refrain from disregarding the Sabbath, if you call the Sabbath a delightful pleasure and Yahweh’s holy day honorable, if you honor it properly by not chasing your own desires, serving your own interests, and speaking empty words, then you will find the joyous bliss that comes from serving Yahweh. And I will cause you to prosper and be carried triumphantly over the high places of the land. You will enjoy the heritage of Jacob, your ancestor.” Certainly the mouth of Yahweh has spoken it!
Isaiah 58:12-14 TPT
It is incumbent upon you to occupy the scene, to clean and repair the scene and to offer generously to those who come with openness to the truth — offer them the new wine that carries a new taste and a new sound that pleases them — not because it’s an easy drink, but because it resonates with the spirit of the free man and brings light and truth and an unheard sound to places that were once dark, to places once overrun by confusion, indoctrination and the merciless trampling of all you hold dear. This is the time for the new wine and the new sound of truth to be generously poured out for the ones who come to drink it.
How to Respond
- Pray, Lord, help me to discipline and align my sources of media to Your sound and Your prompting. I don’t want to give entry any longer to voices of elitism, indoctrination, control and lies. Help me to operate in the freedom You have given me, and shut out those voices who do not align with You and do not align with truth. Help me to be one who always boldly speaks the truth as You lead me.
- Declare, if you embrace the truth, it will release true freedom into your lives. — John 8:32 TPT
- Decree, I evict and run out of my home and private spaces the voices of the old guard media that have trampled on the places that I hold dear. Along with them, I evict the demonic spirits that drive their lies and slander. I no longer permit them to invade my home, mind, car or workplace. I am clearing that space, and as I do, the Lord will lead me to the place of the new wine — the new drink of truth that carries a new sound that resonates with His Spirit of freedom within me.
