在這個季節給先鋒和作夢者的一些真理。

幾週前，我一直聽到主說 "打鐵趁熱"。我覺得這是個指示，但也揭示了我們所處的季節。

對於那些懷有夢想和目標的人來說--這不是一個坐在那裡等待並希望你所懷有的東西會顯現出來的時候--這是一個管理它們並關注它們的時候。

這不是一個只求生存的時間，而是一個昌盛的時刻。

你所看到的未知不是你的監獄--是你的機會。

這是你建立、創造和啟動的時刻，而不是關閉、放棄和隱藏的時刻。

這不是一個關注什麼是結束和什麼不再有效的時刻，而是關注什麼是開始和什麼有新風的時刻。

你積壓的未實現的夢想和冒險並不是貧瘠的記號，而是你將有一個倍增的收割。

你並不像你所想的那樣創意受阻，也沒有失去你的恩膏，你只是不能用過去的燃料運行。

你所感到的不滿和不滿足只是告訴你，你正在開闢新天地。

爭戰和抵抗只是仇敵害怕你在生活中從未接近過靶心。

對你的夜晚、睡眠和夢想的攻擊是一個重要的信號，表明你正處於接收下載的季節。你會找回你的夜晚，你會拿起上帝想要給你的東西。

大流行病沒有打敗你，暴風雨也沒有把你趕走，現在你要彌補失去的時刻，啟動看起來不可能的事。

你不必等待鴨子排成一排。你不需要把一切都想好了。聖靈是這次冒險中的平等夥伴。

這是一個看到一直坐著收集灰塵的東西最終迎風而上並顯現的時候。

是時候讓每小時的筆記本和日記的頁數遇到陽光，寫給世界看。

是時候把你一直看到的東西記錄下來，不要再坐以待斃。

現在是時候突破所有限制，拒絕在你可以與神一起創造的時候再做一個季節的綑綁。

這是你的任務，這是你所處的緊張狀態--你沒有被呼召根據你週圍的氣候來做夢和出生，而是根據你裡面的王國來。

新事是你的強項，從未見過的事物是你的寶貝，而那些瘋狂的表達、話題、主題和語言是你被賦予向世界廣播的東西。

因此，拿起你的筆，拿起錘子，讓我們出發吧！

SOME TRUTH FOR PIONEERS & DREAMERS IN THIS SEASON..

A few weeks ago I kept hearing the Lord say “Strike while the iron is hot!” And I felt this was an instruction but also revealed the season we are in.

For those carrying dreams and purpose -it’s not a time to sit waiting and hoping somehow what you are carrying will reveal themselves - it’s a time to steward them and pay them attention.

This isn’t a time to survive but to thrive.

The unknown you are seeing isn’t your prison - it’s your opportunity..

This is your time to build, create, and launch, not shut down, give up, and hide.

It’s not a time to focus on what is ending and what isn’t working anymore but what is beginning and what has a fresh wind on it.

Your backlog of unfulfilled dreams and ventures that haven’t been launched aren’t a sign of barrenness but that you are about to have a multiplied harvest.

You aren’t creatively blocked like you think nor have you lost your anointing, you just can’t run on the fuel you used to.

The discontent and dissatisfaction you are feeling is only telling you that you are breaking new ground.

The warfare and resistance is just the enemy scared that you have never been closer to the bullseye in your life.

The attack on your nights, your sleep, and your dreams are a major sign that you are in a RECEIVING DOWNLOADS season. You will get your nights back and you will pick up what God is trying to get to you.

The pandemic didn’t defeat you and the storm didn’t take you out and now you are going to make up for lost time and launch into what has looked impossible.

You don’t have to wait til your ducks are in a row.. You don’t have to have it all figured out. Holy Spirit is equal partner in this adventure.

It’s a time to see what has been sitting and collecting dust finally catch the wind and manifest.

It’s time for pages of hour notebooks and journals to meet the light of day and be written for the world to see.

It’s time to BUILD what you have been seeing and not sit on it another day.

It’s time to break past all limitations and refuse to do another season in bondage when you could be creating with God.

This is your assignment and this is the tension you are living in - you weren’t called to dream and birth according to the climate around you but according to the kingdom inside you.

The new thing is your forte, the never before seen thing is your baby, and those crazy expressions, topics, themes, and language is what you have been given to broadcast to the world.

So pick up your pen, pick up hour hammer and let’s go!!
