Beloved, have you been waiting a long time—but you have almost given up hope for blessings? If so, this prophetic word for March is for you.

I asked the Father what He wanted to say about this month of March 2023, and this is what He said:

“I love you with an everlasting love, so do you not think I will do great and mighty things on your behalf? Indeed, I will; and I tell you this month to expect Me to show Myself and My hand with My mighty works.

Expect Mighty Works in March

“Your sense of expectation has been low, for you have been through many tests and trials–so much that you have gotten used to your hours of testing. You feel in many ways like testing is your portion in life.

“But I tell you again today that I am your Shield and your exceeding great reward.

“You have received only small rewards for so long that you have felt that there is nothing else for you. But I am coming on My white horse to make war against those who contend with you.

“It is the time of the blessing of Abraham.

“I will bless you in this month. I will bless those who bless you and I will curse those who curse you. I will contend with those who contend with you,” says the Father of lights, “and all who bless you I will bless. This is the portion of Abraham.

“For too long you have done without, but you have endured this like a valiant warrior. Now I will come swiftly to work on your behalf, and I will be in this month the inheritance of which you have always dreamed.”

“Increase your expectation in March for these things.”

“If you will expect, I will perform. Let it be unto you according to your faith. I love you, child. Never forget the power and strength of My love.

“With My strengthening grace,

“Your loving Abba Father.”

Beloved, I encourage you to print this word off or screenshot it. Pray over this word every day in the month of March.

Do you receive this prophetic word for March for yourself? If so, stop a moment and pray through it right now.

This season, many of you are up against the spirit of rejection and oppression in the spiritual realm. You can feel it. There is doubt, unbelief, fear or self-condemnation. These things are not overcoming thoughts but rather are overwhelming thoughts.

God made you to be an overcomer, and you do this by moving in the opposite spirit. When the enemy whispers lies in your ears, don’t come into agreement with it. Instead, stand on God’s truth! Ask the Holy Spirit to reveal the spirit behind the lie and give you a strategy to battle and move in the opposite spirit.

Why Move in the Opposite Spirit

Moving in the opposite spirit tests and strengthens your faith. James 2:20 says that faith without works is dead. Moving in the opposite spirit takes intentionality. It takes deliberately and diligently creating habits and patterns that work with your faith to produce an abundant harvest over time.

• “Do you see that faith was working together with his works, and by works faith was made perfect?” (James 2:22).

When you feel rejection and oppression but can remember God’s Word about your identity in Yeshua and put those words into action, battling in prayer and decreeing those words in the Court of Heaven, the joy of the Lord strengthens you.

Moving in the opposite spirit brings about God’s purposes and plans. Genesis 50:20 says, “But as for you, you meant evil against me; but God meant it for good, in order to bring it about as it is this day, to save many people alive.” These words spoken by Joseph, Jacob’s son, reveal how moving in the opposite spirit requires trusting God to work all things—even tests and trials—out for the good of those who love Him and are called according to His purposes.

• “And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose” (Rom. 8:28).

When battling rejection and oppression, stand on God’s Word that you are justified, redeemed and fully accepted by the blood of Yeshua. Decree that God untwist the enemy’s lies and use the circumstance to bring Him glory.

Moving in the opposite spirit shuts the mouth of the lion. The Word describes the devil as our adversary. He “walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour” (1 Peter 5:8). This can cause our Adamic nature to fear. Fear moves Satan, but faith moves God. Moving in the spirit of faith and courage when fear presses in shuts the mouth of the lion.

After being thrown into the lions’ den, Daniel could have moved in agreement with fear. Instead, he stood in faith and trusted God to save him.

• “‘My God sent His angel and shut the lions’ mouths, so that they have not hurt me, because I was found innocent before Him…’” (Daniel 6:22).

When rejection and oppression press in, resist fear and stand on God’s promise that He gave you a spirit of sound mind, not fear (2 Tim. 1:7).

Moving in the Opposite Spirit Uses the Opposing Force Against Itself

I’ve said before that operating and moving in the opposite spirit is like marital arts. It takes power coming against you and uses it against the enemy.

• If someone comes at you with hate, then you come at them with love.
• If someone comes at you with doubt, then you come at them with faith.
• If someone comes at you with fear, then you come at them with the truth and love.

3 Steps to Start Moving in the Opposite Spirit

1. Get aligned with God. To be an overcomer in a battle, you must submit to God and resist the enemy (James 4:7). This means staying aligned with God. You stay aligned by seeking His Kingdom and righteousness first, spending time in His Word, meditating on His ways daily, and pausing before reacting.

Getting aligned is like being a train on two tracks: faith and love. You must keep your eyes on Yeshua and walk in faith and love.

Isaiah 30:21 reminds us that God is guiding us with His voice…

• “Your ears shall hear a word behind you, saying, ‘This is the way, walk in it,’ whenever you turn to the right hand or whenever you turn to the left.”

2. Slow down and examine your heart. It can be tempting, when adversity comes, to use carnal weapons (2 Cor. 10:4-6). But God’s Word says that His weapons are not of this world and have the power to pull down strongholds and every high thing.

When adversity comes, you can get angry and speak words you later regret. Rather than speaking right away, examine your heart and do as David did—cry out to God to reveal the habits and patterns that are not of His value system…

• “Search me, O God, and know my heart; try me, and know my anxieties; and see if there is any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting” (Ps. 139:23-24).

3. Walk in forgiveness, faith and love. Whenever adversity comes, the enemy tries to get us to hold bitterness, anger, resentment and doubt in our hearts. The way to move in the opposite spirit is to walk in forgiveness, faith, and love.

• When fear comes, fight with faith.
• When sadness comes, fight with joy.
• When a judging or critical spirit comes, fight with love.
• When offense, bitterness, and resentment come, fight with forgiveness, humility, and honor.

The Bible says that God resists the proud and gives grace to the humble. To create habits and patterns of walking in forgiveness, faith and love, you must operate out of a heart of humility and honor. Honor is the currency of Heaven.

Choosing how you walk—to move in the opposite spirit—determines the level of blessing, authority, favor, and prosperity demonstrated in your life.

With revival breaking out on college campuses and churches across America—and around the world—we need to be careful not to miss the day of our visitation.

Now is not the time to stop praying. Now is the time to pray more. Indeed, every revival in history started with prayer. Prayer births revival. Prayer sustains revival. Prayer is the key.

But it’s not just any kind of prayer. It’s fervent prayer. It’s passionate prayer. It’s prayer completely dependent on the God of revival to pour out His Spirit.

This month, Awakening Prayer Hubs’ theme is Marching into Revival. We’re in a Kairos moment, and we’re believing for more. We’re believing for the Kairos moment to become a Kairos season—and even a great awakening. Will you pray with us?

Pray prayers of repentance: 2 Chronicles 7:14 reads, “If My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land.”

Pray for God’s mercy on the church: Habakkuk 3:2 reads, “O LORD, I have heard Your speech and was afraid; O LORD, revive Your work in the midst of the years! In the midst of the years make it known; In wrath remember mercy.”

Pray that God would stir you up: 2 Timothy 1:6 reads, “Therefore I remind you to stir up the gift of God which is in you through the laying on of my hands.”

Pray that God would make you hungry and thirsty: Jesus said in Matthew 6:33, “But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.”

Golfer Chris Kirk won the Honda Classic Sunday, bringing him his first PGA Tour triumph in nearly eight years. But Kirk said the real victory is his sobriety, the support he’s received, and the “grace of God.”

“I owe everything that I have in my entire life to my sobriety,” Kirk said after his win. “I wouldn’t be doing this for living anymore, I probably wouldn’t have the family that I have currently anymore.”

The pro golfer, who is nearly four years sober, said he was “getting really close to losing everything” he cared about when his alcoholism came to a head.

Kirk, 37, said his ability to move past his struggles can be credited to the Lord and those who helped him along the way.

“For that to have happened and worked out for me, obviously, it was some decisions that I made, but mostly the grace of God,” he said. “And a lot of other people that really helped me along the way.”

In the end, Kirk said winning the Honda Classic is wonderful, but, in light of how far he’s come, it’s a “bonus” to the other blessings he has received.

Kirk, who took home $1,512,000 for securing his Sunday win, walked away from golf in 2019 amid struggles with alcoholism and depression, The Associated Press reported.

Israel Police used stun grenades on Wednesday to disperse a group of protesters who blocked the main Ayalon Highway in Tel Aviv, and then reopened the road to travel.

In a statement, protest organizers criticized the Israeli police for using forceful methods to try scatter to the protesters.

“The commissioner should fire those responsible for the failure today,” the statement read. “Throwing grenades and trampling protesters for democracy with horses is crossing the black line. Shame on the State of Israel.”

Protesters gathered nationwide as Israel’s legislative committee came together to vote on a second phase of judicial reforms, including the so-called override clause that grants a parliamentary majority the ability to overrule judgments by Israel’s High Court of Justice.

Israel’s National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir ordered the opening of all major roads that had been closed.

“The blocking of central roads must not be allowed, and all of the anarchists’ blockades must be opened,” he said. “I am in favor of democratic protest, but we will not allow civil riots and we will not allow anarchists to block major roads.”

Opposition leader Yair Lapid responded by saying, “The only anarchy is that of the most insane government in Israel’s history.”

Across the country, roads were blocked and protesters attempted to disrupt train travel at the Tel Aviv HaHagana Station.

When the Word of God is spoken among the lost, people’s souls recognize the truth held within it as their hearts hear the words of their Creator.

So, when a pastor was invited to a theological debate and began teaching on the uniqueness of Christ and His victory on the cross, salvations shortly followed.

Sources claim that during the debate, Pastor Arthur Asadi Babi, 42, led 37 people to the Lord, many being of Muslim faith in Mbale, Uganda.

Babi was then assaulted for the conversions that led to a neck injury, a broken leg, fractures in his hand and other injuries, according to Bishop Michael Okia of Living Stream Church of Christ.

“We received an invitation letter from the sheikh of Nakaloke mosque, who organized the debate in Nakaloke ward in Mbale city,” Okia said in an interview with Morning Star News. “I decided to send Pastor Babi to debate with the Muslims because of his scholarship skills in the Quran and the Bible.”

As reported by Morning Star News, “Pastor Babi and a team of Christians began participating in the second week of the two-week debate, on Feb. 9, and on the second day he presented a defense of Christianity using the Quran with responses from the Bible on the uniqueness of Christ as the Son of God and the only way to God the Father, the bishop said.”

“On Feb. 10, at the end of his defense, the pastor made an appeal for a response from the audience to believe in Christ,” Okia said. “Surprisingly, 29 adults and eight children gave their lives to Christ Jesus, all Muslims.”

With conversion to another faith being strictly against the teachings of Islam, many within the crowd took exception to what they viewed as heresy and attacked Babi.

Eyewitnesses report that even some of the recent converts joined in on the beating.

“From nowhere, Muslims started throwing stones, and then with sticks and clubs attacked me by beating me, including the new Muslim converts who had embraced the Christian faith,” Pastor Babi recalled. “I was hit on my right hand and left leg while some tried to strangle me. One Muslim kicked me and injured my private parts, which is still in pain to date.”

The beating was so severe that Babi was sent for medical treatment at Grace Medical Center in Mbale.

These assaults have become more common against Christians within Uganda.

Per Morning Star News, “Uganda’s constitution and other laws provide for religious freedom, including the right to propagate one’s faith and convert from one faith to another. Muslims make up no more than 12% of Uganda’s population, with high concentrations in eastern areas of the country.”

As persecution like this continues worldwide, believers can take heart that the temporary suffering here on earth pales in comparison to the glory that will one day await them in heaven. {eoa}

End-times expert Michael Snyder says it’s like “watching a really bad Hollywood disaster movie slowly play out.”

Only this time, he says, billions of people could end up dead.

On his popular website, “The Economic Collapse Blog,” Snyder recently said that, “thanks to the endless bumbling of the Biden administration, Russia and China have been pushed into each other’s arms” and seem determine to confront the western powers together.

And why is that alarming for those of us in the West?

Snyder wants to remind those “who have not been paying attention” that the apocalyptic “Unholy Alliances” that we have been anticipating for years have now been formed, much like we see in Ezekiel 38 and 39.

Snyder says that it’s going to be the U.S. and Europe on one side, and Russia and China—among others—on the other. If you remember last summer, leaders of Russia, Iran and Turkey met together for the first time during a historic summit.

Snyder says that “all of the marbles are at stake, and both side have plenty of nuclear weapons.”

Last week, China’s top diplomat, Wang Yi, after meeting with Russia’s Security Council Secretary Nikolay Patrushev, publicly declared to the Russian News Agency Tass that his country is “ready to join forces with the Russian side.”

The Wall Street Journal recently reported that plans are being made for Chinese leader Xi Jinping to travel to Moscow for a high level summit with Vladimir Putin:

“Chinese leader Xi Jinping is preparing to visit Moscow for a summit with Russia’s president in the coming months, according to people familiar with the plan, as Vladimir Putin wages war in Ukraine and portrays himself as a standard-bearer against a global order.”

Meanwhile, the Chinese have condemned the United States’ involvement in the war in Ukraine and are now calling for the U.N. to investigate the destruction of the Nord Steam pipelines.

They know that we did it, Snyder says, and “Biden Administration officials can lie until they are blue in the face, but the gig is up.”

“U.S. relations with China have been steadily deteriorating for quite some time, but the Biden administration seems absolutely determined to make them even worse,” Snyder says.

One need look no further than how the whole “Chinese spy balloon” incident was handled.

“The Chinese are not going to forgive, and they are definitely not going to forget,” Snyder says.

With Russia and China becoming “best buddies,” that does not bode well for the rest of the world—except those who decide to join those two countries to form an even unholier alliance. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy warned China last week that supporting Russia in its war on Ukraine “would bring a world war.”

Snyder says “there will be a war, and the alliances have already been formed.”

Many of America’s leaders are horrified that Russia and China are getting close. Sen. Lindsay Graham said recently that China would make a “colossal blunder” of it decides to give aid to Russia for its war in Ukraine.

“If you jump on the Putin train, you’re dumber than dirt,” the South Carolina Republican said of China in an interview with Martha Raddatz on ABC’s “This Week.” “It would be like buying a ticket on the Titanic after you saw the movie.”

Meanwhile, former President Donald Trump publicly warned recently that “World War III has never been closer than it is right now.”

“Trump was right on target with that statement,” Snyder says. “In my entire lifetime, the United States has never been closer to an apocalyptic war than it is right now. It appears that we could end up fighting Russia and China at the same time, and that sort of a nightmare scenario will not be good for any of us.”

With one notable exception—believers in Jesus Christ. We know that the Apocalypse is coming, and we know that it’s inevitable.

But guess what? We know who wins in the end, and we need not fear the reality of World War III. If you’re not a believer in Jesus Christ, it might be a good time to re-evaluate that stance. {eoa}

Living a life serving God and His purposes isn’t always sunshine and rainbows. In fact, the more you seek to advance God’s kingdom on earth, the more spiritual warfare you will face in your life. Former Satanist John Ramirez shares what he has learned over the years to defeat Satan in times of warfare.

“You’ll make Jesus Christ proud at the end of your journey if you fight the fight. Instead of lukewarm, pocketbook Christian, why not be God’s best and stand up for the battle,” Ramirez says in our Charisma magazine interview.

In his new book “Fire Prayers: Building Arsenals That Destroy Satanic Kingdoms,” Ramirez talks about the importance of taking the battle to the spirit realm and why being equipped with God’s warfare weapons is one of the most life-changing experiences of all.

God has a special purpose for your life but the enemy will try to use people and troubling situations to derail you. “Why do you live by the opinions of people? God always told me ‘I will always do my part but I won’t do yours,'” he says.

If you are allowing the opinions of others to influence God’s plans for your life pray for a renewed fear of the Lord. David Jeremiah describes the fear of the Lord as not being scared of God, it’s just not wanting to disappoint Him.

“I thought that was the coolest thing when I heard that. I had a hallelujah going this morning in praise and I had to step on my toes and say ‘Lord help me to never disappoint you,'” Ramirez says.

In our interview, Ramirez talks about the wilderness journey between every promise land. You will face hardships, questions, moments that try your faith and seasons that uproot all of the dirt and junk you didn’t know was hidden inside. In this life, you have the opportunity to show God you have faith in His plans and purposes.

Recently Ramirez was in Bakersfield, California praying for a woman walking through a dark wilderness season. She was diagnosed with stage four cancer and was living with a small oxygen tank.

“She came up to the prayer line and I prayed for her. She fell into the seats because the Holy Spirit fell on her so hard. She left without the oxygen tank, she left completely free,” Ramirez says.

He shared another testimony of a Muslim woman he met a few years back. She came to a service he held in Queens, New York. She was serving Allah and had no faith in Jesus, yet during her darkest hour she knew Jesus was the answer. She was riddled with cancer and had six months left to live. Ramirez prayed for her and visited the church one year later. Awaiting him at the doorsteps was a woman filled with joy and a smile from ear to ear. He didn’t remember her at first until she reminded him of the last time she met.

The formerly Muslim woman had given her life to Jesus the day Ramirez prayed for her. Her cancer disappeared and she has been inviting everyone she knows to come to church and encounter the Jesus she had.

“You have to have target arrow precision prayers. It’s like being a spiritual sniper. These kinds of prayers will hit the root of the issue,” Ramirez says.

Tune in to the rest of the video to hear more about prayers for marriage, finances and children. Check out Ramirez’s book “Fire Prayers” to read the manual that will equip you with a spiritual warfare arsenal that will leave Satan and his kingdom trembling. {eoa}

The hit television series “The Chosen,” portrays the moment Jesus was rejected in his hometown in a light that all humans could relate to in our modern world today. Even if 2,000 years have gone by, the hurt and pain of rejection by those you love and trust most is a sting that never changes over time.

Jonathan Roumie, the actor who plays Jesus in the series talks about the scene where Jesus returns to Nazareth.

“There are flashbacks to Jesus while he was a kid,” Roumie says in the video posted on “The Chosen” YouTube.

For thousands of years, the Jews in Nazareth went to the synagogue to listen to the reading of the Torah. The Scriptures came alive in their hearts as they heard about a Messiah, the very Son of God who would be coming.

When Jesus returns to His hometown He goes to the synagogue He likely grew up in and reads the scroll of the prophet Isaiah. He announces the Scripture they’ve been reading for hundreds of years had been fulfilled before their very eyes.

“He’s confronted by His community. The phrase ‘prophet is never excepted in his own town’ stems from what happens in this episode,” Roumie says.

The people He grew up with, and spent his life working with betrayed him at that moment. They rejected Him so badly that they were ready to throw Him off a cliff.

In “The Chosen” episode, the rabbi Jesus grew up learning from was one of those trying to drive Him off the cliff.

“For me, it’s like trying to imagine what it’s like to grow with this teacher all your life and now he’s trying to kill you. In Scripture, it says Jesus passed through them so we interpret that, ‘Jesus says no, this is not going to happen. Not today.’ So He kind of steps up to them looks them in the eye and says ‘not today,'” Roumie says.

The news of Jesus and the miracles following Him was circulating across Nazareth. The people in other areas were welcoming and honoring Him. But when He went to a synagogue, surrounded by the very people He knew the deepest, He was going to them in the role of the Messiah now.

Jesus wasn’t coming before His friends and relatives as a companion but as the Savior of the world. Held within His hands were the promises of God, a hope of eternal life, healing for the sick and deliverance for the bound. But, they didn’t want it.

These were people so desperate for the Messiah, and there He was standing right before them. So how did everything turn around so badly for Jesus?

The Jews in Nazareth wanted proof that He was the Messiah. Jesus, knowing what they were thinking says in Luke 4:23, “You will surely say to Me this proverb, ‘Physician, heal Yourself. Whatever we have heard done in Capernaum, do also here in Your country.”

Jesus continues in verse 24, “Truly, I say to you, no prophet is accepted in his own country.”

Their hearts were hardened and filled with pride toward Jesus. They knew He had performed the miracles in Capernaum which was just a town away. Surely there were plenty of eyewitnesses to testify to the miracles Jesus had been performing. The issue wasn’t believing what was happening it was accepting their own need for a Savior.

Jesus was giving them an opportunity to see they were broken people in need of saving. They didn’t want to lay down their pride. Why would God choose Jesus? A boy who grew up around them, who they ate with, played with and learned with. Why Him?

Rejection is something everyone faces at one point or another. You may have the favor of God on your life and those closest to you are riddled with jealousy and pride. Sin is an evil and dark poison that will infect the deepest places within you if you aren’t careful. You may be blessed financially and ridiculed by those closest to you about how you chose to spend your money even if you have surrendered all you have to God.

Rejection is painful and it hurts, especially when you are rejected by your closest companions and relatives. There is hope. You have a Savior who knows what rejection feels like. He left the throne room to become the seed inside of a woman. He went from a place of great honor to the lowliest most vulnerable place on earth, a fetus forming inside of a human being.

He chose to live a life on earth. Learning to talk, learning to walk, facing loneliness and pain so that you could be saved. Jesus knows the greatest depths of what the pain of rejection feels like. If you are facing rejection today go to Jesus the one who identifies with you in your pain. He can and will heal every wound and fill you with joy unspeakable.
