Recently, the Lord has been speaking to me in prayer about a release that He wants for His people. The Lord spoke to me and said, “This is the time for a critical release.” I believe that this is a crucial time in the body of Christ as a whole. I also believe that this is a significant season for individuals to receive this critical release from the Lord in their personal lives and in the geographical locations in which God has planted them.
I feel that this critical release that is coming will release individuals into new realms of their identity. Jeremiah 29:11 says, “For I know the plans that I have for you, says the Lord, plans for peace and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.” God has thoughts about you that He is thinking right now! What is God thinking about you and your situation right now? There is something inside of you that is critical for you to release but first, in this season, God wants to release something critical in you so that He can release it through you.
I feel strongly in my spirit that what God is wanting to do in the earth is accelerating. I see many in the body of Christ shifting into proper position and running with the right people to see the outpouring and awakening like never before. I believe God is wanting to release something critical in the earth, but we must be prepared for it!
Because this is a critical time for the body of Christ, I believe it is crucial for us to allow the Lord to develop character and integrity in a greater measure in us. We must draw closer to the Lord in the season, keeping our personal relationship with Him fresh and current so we are prepared to carry what God is getting ready to release. God is preparing us for the critical release by drawing us closer to Himself. I feel that God may even call certain individuals to a specific time of fasting in order to prepare. This is a critical time for the critical release. {eoa}
