Today’s Reading:
Jeremiah 30-31
…behold, days are coming,’ declares the Lord, ‘when I will restore the [a]fortunes of My people Israel and Judah.’ The Lord says, ‘I will also bring them back to the land that I gave to their forefathers and they shall possess it.’”
Jeremiah 30:3
The Spirit of the Lord says,
The grace of My anointing is pouring in like a river. The oil of My favor is being poured out generously. It’s being poured out generously on My lovers, on those whose hearts are tethered to Mine. The oil of My favor and My anointing grace is marking and anointing My lovers. I will mark them with My own hand for service, for advancement, for promotion and for rapid, powerful acceleration that has not often been seen. Where the world is accustomed to favor going to bullies, thieves, slimeballs and grifters, they will see advancement come instead upon My anointed. The nepotism of old is decaying and dying. I Am causing the strings of nepotistic leadership, nepotistic strongholds, wicked connections and evil favor to disintegrate even as the ones who are holding the strings and the ones held up by the strings are still in place. The puppets will fall and the puppet masters will lose all control of the scene. They will be left holding empty disintegrated strings and the curtain of exposure will rise to expose them and reveal them, to catch them red-handed. Meanwhile, the anointed ones of My favor, of My heart, of My heartbeat will be thrust onto the scene, onto the stage, and they will take the place of the wicked.
8 ‘It shall come about on that day,’ declares the Lord of hosts, ‘that I will break his yoke from off [c]their neck and will tear off [d]their bonds; and strangers will no longer make [e]them their slaves. 9 But they shall serve the Lord their God and David their king, whom I will raise up for them.10 ‘Fear not, O Jacob My servant,’ declares the Lord, And do not be dismayed, O Israel;
Jeremiah 30:8-10
For behold, I will save you from afar
And your [f]offspring from the land of their captivity.
And Jacob will return and will be quiet and at ease,
And no one will make him afraid.
I have set up, positioned, equipped and anointed these lovers of Mine — these ones whose ear stays close to My chest — to fill the space where evil has occupied. It will surprise many of them, as much as it surprises the world that looks on. Some have been part of My plan, have been partnering with My plan and understand big outlines of My plan, because I have shared it with them. They will walk onto the scene with confidence as the enemies of the Living God are cast aside and pushed off of the stage. But many will be shocked, surprised and have their breath taken away by the new position, the new place they suddenly find themselves occupying. Make room in your heart, in your life, in your imagination, in your confidence and in your hope to occupy that which has long been a stronghold of the enemy.
16 Thus says the Lord,
Jeremiah 31;16-17
“Restrain your voice from weeping
And your eyes from tears;
For your work will be rewarded,” declares the Lord,
“And they will return from the land of the enemy.
17 “There is hope for your future,” declares the Lord,
“And your children will return to their own territory.
Your prayers are pushing the wicked strongholders out. Your decrees are severing ties. Your worship has moved my heart and has activated the angelic to fight. Your weapons of spiritual warfare are mighty for the taking down of strongholds; and you will see these strongholders exposed and ejected from the scene. You will see the occupation and the territory of the stronghold be turned over to worthy ones, to righteous ones, to ones who operate in My authority and with My power. You will see it. You will experience it.
18 “Thus says the Lord,
Jeremiah 30:18-20
‘Behold, I will restore the [j]fortunes of the tents of Jacob
And have compassion on his dwelling places;
And the city will be rebuilt on its ruin,
And the palace will stand on its rightful place.
19 ‘From them will proceed thanksgiving
And the voice of those who [k]celebrate;
And I will multiply them and they will not be diminished;
I will also honor them and they will not be insignificant.
20 ‘[l]Their children also will be as formerly,
And [m]their congregation shall be established before Me;
And I will punish all [n]their oppressors.
Prepare yourself — your heart, your mind, your imagination and your life — for catapult-like promotion. It will come in an instant, and you must be prepared to stake your claim, plant your flag and occupy the place that will now be known as the stronghold of My favor, the place that has been delivered into the hands of the saints, the high priests and the warrior-lovers of the Lord God Most High. This is a day of a great transfer. This is a time of flushing out the enemy and leaving no vacuum for his return. This is a time to grasp the opportunity that I present to you and occupy. The occupation is for the nation. Do it to My glory. Do it in My Name. Until then and as you do it, walk with Me.
How to Respond
- Position yourself close to the Lord’s heart.
- Pray, Lord thank You for hearing our prayers, for seeing our struggles and understanding the oppression under which Your people are suffering. Thank You for having a plan and for moving to expose and oust those operating in defiance of You and causing the hardships of the people. Thank You for positioning those who love You and live with their ear to Your chest to occupy these many strongholds that have been long held by the enemy. Help me to be ready for any change, acceleration and promotion that You have positioned me to assume. I want to be ready, and I want to occupy.
- Declare, the Earth is the Lord’s and the fullness therein. He raises leaders up, and He takes leaders down. A great transfer is coming. A great change in occupying forces is coming.
- Decree, I will see the Lord’s hand move in power to expose, disrupt, displace and flush out those who are with the enemy that currently occupy strongholds of influence. I will see and experience the Lord’s hand catapult many faithful lovers of His into positions of power, authority and influence to re-occupy those strongholds for the Kingdom and for the sake of the people in the Name of the Lord God Almighty.
