Nathan – Tuesday 20th Oct 2015
During my time of worship yesterday, I had a vision of a ship that was going up a river, it was going wherever the river was leading. I then saw that the ship was coming toward a large opening with a great expanse of waters such as an ocean but the ship was now hardly moving, it was trying to get to this great open expanse of water but was struggling to make progress toward it. I realised that the ship was in fact going up stream and against the tide that was coming in. The ship continued to labor but then, the tide suddenly changed and the ship quickly gained ground effortlessly with such a freedom, into the great expanse of water.
The Lord is saying that the tide is about to change on our circumstances. I see that many of the Body of Christ have been on a journey of contending for many of the promises God has spoken over them but it feels like you are not making much ground and that the tide against you is to strong. Be encouraged that against the tide is where you want to be because even though it may seem so much easier to turn the boat around and go with the current, the current will eventually become stagnant and the waters will eventually dry up. Keep standing and contending against the tide of your current circumstances because the Lord is about to change the tide and you will see a sudden change that will cause your future, that you are contending for, to become reality and physically manifested in your life. Now is the time to keep your eyes fixed on Jesus more than ever and continue to allow the Holy Spirit to drive you by directing your speech, your decrees and declarations. Keep standing on the words & promises the Lord has given you because the tide is about to suddenly change where you will see a sudden acceleration towards the great expanse of waters which is the promises and blessing of God. You will see a sudden ease and freedom in your moving forward towards the things you have been contending for and your future that you have continued to prophesy over yourself, is about to become reality. With this, will also come greater God Devine appointed encounters that will cause you to go to the next level in your relationship with The Lord and the mantle that God has placed on you will be enlarged with a greater authority & influence.
“Behold, I am with you and will keep you wherever you go, and will bring you back to this land; for I will not leave you until I have done what I have spoken to you.” Genesis 28:15 NKJV
“For a day in Your courts is better than a thousand. I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God Than dwell in the tents of wickedness. For the LORD God is a sun and shield; The LORD will give grace and glory; No good thing will He withhold From those who walk uprightly. O LORD of hosts, Blessed is the man who trusts in You!” Psalms 84:10-12 NKJV
