Once again the Lord has taken me back to a word He spoke to us in the past. This powerful word came on August 30, 2025. It is a wonderful and needed reminder to us as we prepare to enter 2026–a year full of promise for God’s people, and His Kingdom rising!
—
“My Kingdom Rising. What does this mean? How do you Rise with Me?

“You have a saying – ‘rise to the occasion.’ It is a good saying. A helpful and definitive one for the question I have posed. When you say you ‘rise to the occasion,’ you speak of mustering within yourself the courage, energy, and power needed for some new situation that has come upon you. This phrase means taking on courage to face the new circumstance. The phrase speaks of the exact opposite of complacency. Of refusing to see. Or seeing but turning away in purposeful denial. MY KINGDOM RISES. Who is My Kingdom? My Kingdom is YOU. My People, standing in Glory, performing My Will on earth. Testifying of Me, your Savior and Redeemer, through the way you live and the words you speak. I now call every member of My Kingdom to RISE HIGHER. No matter the battle behind you – and how well you have fought it – I now require MORE of you.

“Is there an end to Me? Have I not spoken to you again and again that I AM BOUNDLESS? You shall never find My end, My boundary. Therefore there is always a Higher Rising ahead of you. You Rise with Me as you grow in understanding of Me and love for Me. You Rise with Me as you continue to say YES to whatever I ask of you – even before that request is fully defined. As every member of My Kingdom rises to carry My Glory and Power as never before – collectively MY KINGDOM RISES.

“Remember My constant exhortations to you, My People. That you lack NOTHING with Me. I have given you ALL Authority over this earth and over your enemy. Your Authority was bought by My Blood. A costly price, wouldn’t you say? Therefore DO NOT SQUANDER IT.

“As My Kingdom Rises, your enemy falls. You will now Rise to this Biblical occasion, prophesied over the millennia, to build My Kingdom on earth. Your enemy is terrified, seeing what is coming. He is terrified to see what YOU have become. And your future of GREATER becoming. Your Faith, your Authority wielded according to My guidance, leaves no room for him to maneuver in success. You trample your enemy. You crush him.

“Continue to pray for those in My Church whose eyes are still not open. I WILL OPEN THEIR EYES. Continue to pray for My Great Harvest – the Harvest that is yours to bring in.

“Is it too much to ask you to Rise with Me? Would you rather turn a blind eye and be trampled in the battle? There shall be no in between. No ‘gray area.’ You will either Rise with Me as needed to fight for My Kingdom Come, or you will fall. I provide you with all you need, My Children. Do you truly still not understand that you lack NOTHING as you stand beside Me? You will indeed not fail to understand for long as you go out to battle with Me. For your experience shall bring your revelation, your understanding. You question what you do not know, what you have never seen before. Questions fall away in the LIGHT of EXPERIENCE. There is a point when a soldier in training must go out to his first battle. In the battle, in the melee, he learns how to fight. And he learns his strength. And he learns the Wisdom of his Commander. Your Commander is ALL WISE. The greatest strategist ever in existence fights beside you. And so again I say, what do you lack? Any lack is on your part, not Mine. Therefore – ask Me to show you where your weaknesses lie, and I will respond. I will strengthen you.

“Your greatest Joys and Victories are ahead of you, My People. Trust Me now as I lead you. Hold nothing back from Me – and I will hold nothing back from you. Amen.”

Notes:

Luke 17:20-21: Being asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God would come, he answered them, “The kingdom of God is not coming in ways that can be observed, nor will they say, ‘Look, here it is!’ or ‘There!’ for behold, the kingdom of God is in the midst of you.”

Matthew 6:10: Your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.

Daniel 2:44: And in the days of those kings the God of heaven will set up a kingdom that shall never be destroyed, nor shall the kingdom be left to another people. It shall break in pieces all these kingdoms and bring them to an end, and it shall stand forever.

I Corinthians 4:20: For the kingdom of God does not consist in words but in power.

Daniel 7:27: And the kingdom and the dominion and the greatness of the kingdoms under the whole heaven shall be given to the people of the saints of the Most High; his kingdom shall be an everlasting kingdom, and all dominions shall serve and obey him.

Psalm 103:19: The Lord has established his throne in the heavens, and his kingdom rules over all.

Matthew 16:19: I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.

Luke 10:19: Behold, I have given you authority to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing will injure you.

Psalm 91:13: You will tread upon the lion and cobra, the young lion and the serpent you will trample down.

Romans 16:20: The God of peace will soon crush Satan under your feet.

Matthew 9:37-38: Then He said to His disciples, “The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few. Therefore beseech the Lord of the harvest to send out workers into His harvest.”

Romans 8:37-39: But in all these things we overwhelmingly conquer through Him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Psalm 108:13: Through God we will do valiantly, and it is He who shall tread down our adversaries.

Deuteronomy 20:4: …for the Lord your God is the one who goes with you, to fight for you against your enemies, to save you.

Isaiah 41:10: Do not fear, for I am with you; Do not anxiously look about you, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, surely I will help you, surely I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.

Today the Lord reminds us of this important word regarding TIME that He spoke on September 29, 2024:

“Do not move. Do not move from where you stand. You stand in ME. Have I given you a promise? Stated what WILL BE? Do you doubt because you have not yet seen it come to pass? Are YOU the author of My plan? Do you tell the Great I AM how things should be? Do you move the hands of TIME? Do you understand what TIME is to Me? Not the hands of a clock, a day, year, month. Time to Me is the balance of Judgment and Mercy. How long did YOU need to change your heart and decide to follow Me? Should I have shortened the Time for you?

“My timing is intricate, with many moving parts. These parts are the hearts of men. My timing requires great patience. Great FAITH. Do you trust in the Creator, or do you not?

“Consider this–an addition to the complexity. Perhaps what you look for in response to a promise of Mine is wrong. So it is not timing that is the problem, but assumption. You need spiritual eyes to see My fulfillment. Your imagination is often too small. My creativity is far above yours. My purposes are far beyond your sights. Spiritual eyes look with FAITH to the FUTURE. Impatient earthly eyes look to the demand of NOW and one’s own command of HOW. Trust Me. Trust the Creator’s creative thinking. I’ll out-think you every time. This is your JOY. Your DELIGHT. For when I come through in ways you never imagined, you will be in AWE. Would you choose a Creator God that you could out-think? Trust Me to AWE you. That is My DELIGHT. Think on this word: ENCHANTMENT.

“‘Hope deferred makes the heart sick.’ What does this mean? What is the deferred? The fulfillment, or hope itself? True HOPE never makes the heart sick. For true HOPE KNOWS I will fulfill the promise and trusts in Me. It is only when you set your hope aside and focus on perceived ill timing that your heart becomes sick. My HOPE is perfect. My HOPE is the ASSURANCE of what is not yet seen. Blessed assurance–this is your GOLD and your REST. HOPE, true HOPE transcends time. AMEN.”

Notes:

In the New Testament, the Greek word for hope is elpis, which means not just a wish, as we might use the word hope today, but an expectation of what is sure/certain.

Romans 8:24-25: For in hope we have been saved, but hope that is seen is not hope; for who hopes for what he already sees? But if we hope for what we do not see, through perseverance we wait eagerly for it.

Proverbs 13:12: Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but desire fulfilled is a tree of life.

Hebrews 11:1. Now faith is the certainty of things hoped for, a proof of things not seen.

This powerful word came at 2:45 a.m., November 24, 2024:

“My will SHALL be done, in America and in all the nations. I came to the Earth the first time for REDEMPTION, to give My life as a sacrifice for all who would believe. My Spirit now invades earth for the establishing of My Kingdom. Holy Spirit will pour Himself out for My GREAT HARVEST. All My People are needed to attend the souls of those who join the Kingdom through this harvest. Many eyes have been opened these past few years to the evil that has gripped the world and tried to overturn America, MY Covenant Nation of witnesses to the world. The eyes of many more shall now be opened as an avalanche of evil is exposed. The lies in America run deep and wide, and much of what the false ‘media’ has told the people has been lies. As those lies are exposed, as evil beyond imagination against the children is exposed, the veil of deceit will fall away from all who have been deceived. The shock will lead people to Me – THE TRUTH. Lost souls will flock to Me – people who have never heeded My word before and those who knew Me but walked away. They will be raw and needy. They will need the feeding of My word, the gentle nourishing and tending of their soul wounds – for they will have many scars. They will need deliverance from evil spirits. They will need LOVE, which is always patient, always kind. I told My disciples on earth to pray for workers for this harvest, as I tell you. These new believers will be RADICAL – radical for Me and My Truth. They will not be dissuaded by false religion and man-made doctrine. They will be full of My JOY and POWER as they accept the infilling of Holy Spirit. Those caught in religious dogma will sneer at them and say they are of the devil – as the Pharisees said to Me. PRAY for the souls of these ‘religious’ ones, for their sin of unbelief is the hardest to break.

“My Spirit comes to earth to AWAKEN. How to awaken those who deeply slumber? By hard SHAKING. Remember this as America is further shaken – it is for the shaking loose of evil from your nation, and the shaking of people for the sake of My Kingdom. The shaking is necessary – and full of My Good Plans for America. For this reason have I raised up many voices to speak My word to all who will listen – and those who will not. I have called and called My People to rise from their complacency and false teachings of the church – and to open themselves up to My Spirit for POWER FROM ON HIGH. This Power shall now flow in the earth as never before seen. This POWER shall not be quenched. All will see My Glory. Al must make a choice to accept MY Glory and be part of My Kingdom on earth – or not. A yes means Life. A no means eternal death. My GREAT HARVEST is of the millions, the billions who will say YES.

“Arise now, My Church, My Ekklesia – My governing body. Prepare yourselves for the Great Outpouring. Allow no unrepented sin to remain on yourself, no offense against others to stain your soul. Forgive all and prepare your hearts to radically serve in My Kingdom. Radicals – My ‘sold out’ ones – those who will not turn back from My Word despite the mocking of those who say No to Me. Come, step into the Kingdom I have always planned for My People – a Kingdom on earth of My Power and Glory, a Kingdom of FREEDOM, JOY, DELIVERANCE, and POWER. THY KINGDOM COME, THY WILL BE DONE ON EARTH AS IT IS IN HEAVEN. Amen and amen.”

Notes:

Titus 2:14: [Christ Jesus] gave Himself for us to redeem us from every lawless deed, and to purify for Himself a people for His own possession, zealous for good deeds.

Matthew 9:36-38: Seeing the people, He felt compassion for them, because they were distressed and dispirited like sheep without a shepherd. Then He *said to His disciples, “The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few. Therefore beseech the Lord of the harvest to send out workers into His harvest.”

John 4:35-36: Do you not say, ‘There are yet four months, and then comes the harvest?’ Behold, I say to you, lift up your eyes and look on the fields, that they are white for harvest. Already he who reaps is receiving wages and is gathering fruit for life eternal; so that he who sows and he who reaps may rejoice together.

Luke 17:20-21: Now having been questioned by the Pharisees as to when the kingdom of God was coming, He answered them and said, “The kingdom of God is not coming with signs to be observed; nor will they say, ‘Look, here it is!’ or, ‘There it is!’ For behold, the kingdom of God is in your midst.”

Hebrews 12:25-29: See to it that you do not refuse Him who is speaking. For if those did not escape when they refused him who warned them on earth, much less will we escape who turn away from Him who warns from heaven. And His voice shook the earth then, but now He has promised, saying, “Yet once more I will shake not only the earth, but also the heaven.” This expression, “Yet once more,” denotes the removing of those things which can be shaken, as of created things, so that those things which cannot be shaken may remain. Therefore, since we receive a kingdom which cannot be shaken, let us show gratitude, by which we may offer to God an acceptable service with reverence and awe; for our God is a consuming fire.

Matthew 6:10: ‘Your kingdom come. Your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.

This word came on August 21, 2025. This is a well-timed day to hear it again:

“Christmas shall be a time of celebration. I say again, Christmas shall be a time of great celebration. For on this day My Son was born. On this day your nation is reborn. Reborn of My Light, My Spirit. THIS is the Day the Lord has made. You shall rejoice and be glad in it. For the days around Christmas – your celebration of My Son’s Birth – shall be filled with Wonder. My Spirit on the move. My Spirit surging. Bringing life. Bringing a turning. A beacon for the world. A beacon of Hope and Glory.

“When all else fails – praise the Lord? NO! Praise the Lord NOW. Praise Him at ALL TIMES. Praise Him for what He has done for you, America, and praise Him for what He shall do for you. For your days ahead are great and glorious. Days of rest and restitution after the Storm. I do not promise you ease now. Ease of days shall come. I promise you My JOY always. Joy transcends ease of circumstance. My Joy transcends All. In the NICK of Time Rises My Joy. What is a Nick of Time? A small cut. An incursion. Time suspended for My sake. And yours, oh America.

“What do we do now? My People ask. Continue on. Continue in the fight for your nation. Continue in My Grace, My Glory. My Glory now, and much more to come. Stay rooted and grounded in Me, moment by moment, for the Storm approaches. Know that I AM in the Storm. A time to arrest evil. A time for righteousness to rise. A time for the Showing of My Hand. A time for relief and rending.

“Pray into this Word, My People. Ask Me for understanding. Ask Me to prepare you, whether you fully understand or not. For the lack of total understanding of a Word from Me leads to TRUST. Requires TRUST in Me. Know that I protect and lead you through all things. Sometimes My Words can be seen in full clarity only after they have displayed themselves. The early giving of My Words then gives rise to great Faith. For My People see the graciousness of My Words beforehand – and the promised fulfilling of all spoken. No matter the display of My Words, My People are to seek shelter in Me. I AM your shelter in the storm. I AM your help in all times of trouble. I AM your STRENGTH.

“Declare these Words to the heavens. I, your Lord God, sit on My Throne in the Court of Heaven, and I hear your declarations. Your declarations of My Words align your soul and spirit with Me. With My plans for your nation. Such declarations of TRUST and FAITH in Me will strengthen and secure you when the Storm comes. Do not think your words mean nothing, My People. Every prayer from the righteous, every declaration and decree of My stated Will, comes to My ears as I sit on My Throne. Every faith-filled prayer is incense in My bowls. Full of fragrance and full of power.

“Spoken by the One True God, your God full of Grace, Mercy, and Love. Your God who NEVER CHANGES. Amen.”

Notes:

Many times our creative Lord speaks in layers. When He says, “In the NICK of time…” I think He’s making a play on words, referring to “St. Nick” of Christmas time. But then He adds another layer, opening up the meaning of the phrase “nick of time.”

When the Lord gives a word like this to His people, it’s an invitation for us to pray into it and declare His will shall be done in the unfolding of events and their timing. It is interesting to hear this word after His recent announcement of “Glory!” on His proclaimed “Day 74.” (December 13 post). I see that as a partial fulfillment of this word. The Lord’s promise that our prayers are heard is key. He is asking for our declarations that this word will take place–for our prayers move things in the spiritual realm. In God’s timing we see the effects in the physical world. (Note as an example Revelation 8:3-5, which show an angel mixing the prayers of the saints with fire from God’s altar, then throwing the mixture back to earth.)

Psalm 118:24: This is the day which the Lord has made; Let us rejoice and be glad in it.

Hebrews 13:15: Through Him then, let us continually offer up a sacrifice of praise to God, that is, the fruit of lips that give thanks to His name.

Psalm 71:23-24: My lips will shout for joy when I sing praises to You; and my soul, which You have redeemed. My tongue also will utter Your righteousness all day long…

Philippians 4:4: Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, rejoice.

Proverbs 10:28: The prospect of the righteous is joy, but the hopes of the wicked come to nothing.

Proverbs 3:5-6: Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.

Isaiah 26:3: You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are steadfast, because they trust in you.

Psalm 46:1: God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.

Proverbs 15:19: The Lord is far from the wicked, but he hears the prayer of the righteous.

Job 22:26-28: For then you will delight in the Almighty and lift up your face to God. You will pray to Him, and He will hear you; And you will pay your vows. You will also decree a thing, and it will be established for you; and light will shine on your ways.

I John 5:14: And this is the confidence that we have toward him, that if we ask anything according to his will he hears us.

Hebrews 4:16: Therefore let us draw near with confidence to the throne of grace, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.

Revelation 5:8: When He had taken the book, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, each one holding a harp and golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints.

Revelation 8:3-5: Another angel came and stood at the altar, holding a golden censer; and much incense was given to him, so that he might add it to the prayers of all the saints on the golden altar which was before the throne. And the smoke of the incense, with the prayers of the saints, went up before God out of the angel’s hand. Then the angel took the censer and filled it with the fire of the altar, and threw it to the earth; and there followed peals of thunder and sounds and flashes of lightning and an earthquake.

Hebrews 13:8: Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.
