For several months, I was waking up in the middle of the night for several hours and having a strong intercession come upon me.
However, lately I’ve been waking up in the middle of the night for about three to four hours straight and, when I do, nothing happens. There doesn’t seem to be an apparent reason. I haven’t had caffeine or chocolate.
There’s no intercession, no apparent words from the Lord, and no understanding as to why I’m awake. Sometimes it’s been very frustrating.
However, during the day a strong writing wave hits me.
I have found out that this awake thing like that has been happening to several other female ministers too. Another woman posted about it recently, and others I’m closer to have been telling me that they are going through the same process as well.
They’ve just been awake and seemingly nothing else. But it is NOT “nothing.” God wants you to know that He is doing things in you during that time that produce fruit in the days ahead. It’s kind of “awake surgery.”
Again. These incidents are NOT “nothing.” God is definitely in this.
Basically He’s giving us a WAKE UP CALL and saying to us women, plain and simple, “IT’S TIME TO WAKE UP!”
Isaiah 60:1-2:
1 “Arise, shine; For your light has come! And the glory of the Lord is risen upon you.
2 For behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, And deep darkness the people; But the Lord will arise over you, And His glory will be seen upon you.”
Interestingly, Helene, the most recent hurricane name, means “light” and “shining.”
The silence part is telling us that it’s time to BE STILL and LISTEN. He’s teaching us to open our eyes and ears and hearts and position ourselves to HEAR what the Holy Spirit is saying.
Psalm 46:10:
“Be still, and know that I am God; I will beexalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth!”
He desires to stop the madness that has been becoming all too prevalent against women.
Don’t put up or shut up and don’t be complacent about it.
We who are older, more mature ones, need to help the younger generations of women coming behind us to come forth without fear of danger.
God has been highlighting the fact that there’s been this apparent onslaught against women and let me know that HE is the one that has been revealing and taking care of in plain sight. In the world with people like Sean Diddy Combs, and also with situations we have been seeing unfold in the church.
It has to be revealed in order to be halted and healed.
Additionally there has been a false move launched by the enemy of women leadership with motives opposing God’s heart and values, presenting itself as a safe and effective answer to support women.
Again, WAKE UP! Do not think that just because you put a woman in public office that it is a good thing. It would be wonderful if it would be a GODLY woman who would produce GODLY results. But for it to be a woman who promotes things opposite of God’s Word would be to put a Jezebel spirit in place. It would be deadly.
I asked the Lord how the church could come through this and to be better for it.
He gave me an open vision type dream and showed and told me this….
It’s time for the church to rise up, acknowledge, respect, celebrate, train, and support their women.
I saw many numbers of women being gathered and given the opportunity to speak, discuss, share, and be heard, healed, and launched.
THE MORDECAI EFFECT
The men who would help to bring this about would be, as happened with Mordecai when he helped Esther, blessed and promoted to their respective ranks and positions, next to the king.
Women are birthers. Once the women/mothers are healed and launched, they, in turn, would help to heal and launch the children and the rest of the church family. This would result in a new generational revival type of movement with endless and enduring influence and God-power.
I sensed the potential for it would be that doing so would rebuke the devourer from the damage that the enemy had inflicted upon any group that might feel this applies to them and who would move forward to heal, protect, and defend their wounded women soldiers and implement God’s plans to bring restoration to them.
It would, in effect, launch what I heard called “THE MORDECAI EFFECT.” Thus restoring and promoting the Mordecai Men to their respective positions in the kingdom.
So let’s be clear. I’m NOT saying to be a part of the “woke” crowd. That agenda has opposing agendas and effects.
It’s time to WAKE UP into a GODLY AWAKENING.
RISE AND SHINE
Isaiah 60:1-2:
1 Arise, shine; For your light has come! And the glory of the Lord is risen upon you.
2 For behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, And deep darkness the people; But the Lord will arise over you,And His glory will be seen upon you
Ephesians 5:8-14:
8 For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light
9 (for the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness, righteousness, and truth),
10 finding out what is acceptable to the Lord.
11 And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather expose them.
12 For it is shameful even to speak of those things which are done by them in secret.
13 But all things that are exposed are made manifest by the light, for whatever makes manifest is light.
14 Therefore He says: “Awake, you who sleep, Arise from the dead, And Christ will give you light.”
Let’s WAKE UP and LISTEN.
PRAYER
Father God,
Thank You for Your wake up call to wake up Your women to hear and do Your will. Thank You for awakening us and causing us to shine for Your honor and glory. We love You.
In Jesus nam
Amen
