No matter what season you may find yourself in at this very moment it is imperative to routinely inspect your life as it relates to success. Just as a farmer in the natural routinely inspect the seeds that you have planted for signs of life within your personal motives, spiritual movements, Kingdom assignment, finances, and family relationships.
Evaluate your season and determine if you have had any new breakthroughs. Are you experiencing recurring setbacks and minimal forward progress? When was the last time you had a harvest? Have you ever had a harvest in its truest form?
Most of the time we don’t think about these questions until we hit rock bottom and nothing is happening. Frustration settles in and becomes the biggest contender for our seasons. You should not accept crop failures or barren seasons as your portion in life. Matter of fact barrenness is not the will of our Heavenly Father. God has prophetically downloaded into our chronos (life) seasons of kairos (appointed breakthrough). It is these breakthroughs that place us in the fields of great harvest. This the harvest that will provide leaves for healing and fruit for restoration as found in Ezekiel 47.
Two simple words that God has given me as prophetic encouragement in this season is STAY UP! I’m reminded when palm trees are planted in early stages they have to have stakes with rope attached to them to keep them upright and rooted. Sometimes I have seen the stakes driven into the ground and plywood nailed to the trunk of the tree. If you know anything about tomato gardening you have to do the same young tomato plants as well.
Therefore, the prophetic encouragement is to STAY UP! This is the NOW to remain upright and rooted.
This prophetic prayer alignment will provide you spiritual leverage to begin to dismantle death cycles in your life, bloodline, and generations to come. I encourage you to be led of the spirit in choosing a time of fasting during these SEVEN days.
7 Day Prophetic Prayer Alignment
Genesis 28:10-22, Genesis 35, John 4:1-25, Judges 7, Ezra 8:21-23
Ask God to provide you with divine revelation. You need God to move you beyond information into revelation. Fresh revelation in regards to your season is available to you. Allow for your perception to be realigned during this time to see the prophetic movement in your life. Prayerfully consider what are the hindrances to your breakthroughs. What’s eating your harvest? What is your devourer’s origin?
Joel 2:25, 2 Samuel 12:14-31, Psalm 30:2, Psalm 107:19-20, 1 Samuel 31:4
This is the place you contend for your healing. Ask God to heal you from wounds that have festered. You need to be healed from wounds that have scabs with wound beds under the surface that are not healing. Decree and declare over your life that disappointment and discouragement will not keep you focused in your past season. The roots of past failures will not choke out the roots of your success.
Nehemiah 4:14, 1 Timothy 1:18, 2 Timothy 2:3-5, Genesis 32:22-31, Ezra 8:21-23
Contend in Merriam-Webster is stated to be the ability to strive or compete with someone or something with a good chance of winning! It’s time to face off…Chase the enemy out of your vineyard. Rebuke blight and mildew from the leaves of your harvest.
Contend for: 1. What belongs to you. 2. What you know you’ve earned. 3. Your kingdom assignment 4. Your family’s direction and inheritance. 5. Your faith
Esther 4:14-16, Judges 19:22-20:5, Psalm 35:13, Luke 4:14, 18, Mark 7:25-30
Dismantle your obstacles. Your obstacle may be in the form of addictions. Obstacles can manifest in the form of negative emotions and habits. Then there are the obstacles to your kingdom assignment: winning souls, provision, influence, and protection to name a few…Opposition from demonic territorial powers that prevent forward progress and cause arrested development are prevalent in the Body of Christ today. But, God has already predetermined our breakthrough! That’s GOOD NEWS! Obstacles are dismantled by prayer, fasting, worship, and persistence.
Jeremiah 29:11, Daniel 1, Genesis 41:37-57
Decree and declare a season of productivity and multiplication. Most Christians have committed Jeremiah 29:11 to memory. What most fail to do is read this scripture in its context. God gave them a strategy as to how to come out of a season of captivity prosperous. Understand a season will always move you towards your prophetic destiny. This same divine concept is heralded throughout the word of God. So, why should it not be the DNA of our testimony?
