“And
the LORD brought us forth out of Egypt with a mighty hand, and with an
outstretched arm, and with great terribleness, and with signs, and with wonders:
and he hath brought us into this place, and hath given us this land, even a
land that flows with milk and honey.” Deuteronomy 26:8-9
In
2005, when I first moved into APGI, I heard the Lord say, “Prepare My people
for what’s coming.” Back then, I never sought Him on what was coming. I
received that word from where I was and that was business, so I started
teaching workshops. As time went on, I always knew I was being prepared and
groomed for something that was NOT here. The book of Joshua and how they
possessed that land, has always been in the background of all my messages.
Sometime around 2020 when the earth shifted, I heard God say, “I’m doing it
again.” The Bible says we prophesy in part, and we know in part, so over these
last 27 years, I have heard a lot from God that are various pieces that fit the
same puzzle.
Within
the last couple of months, God began to paint this picture of His divine
release that is coming to the earth.
“And
he said unto Abram, Know of a surety that thy seed shall be a stranger in a
land that is not theirs, and shall serve them; and they shall afflict them four
hundred years; and also that nation, whom they shall serve, will I judge: and
afterward shall they come out with great substance.” Genesis 15:13-14
When
God does anything, it is never from a place of reacting, but from His Kairos
times that have been set before the foundation of the world. The above
scripture reveals that before Abraham had one child, it was foretold that his
seed would be in bondage for 400 years. The word says, God is long suffering.
He loves His creation mankind, but He judges sin. At the set time of the Lord,
God began to bring Israel out of bondage by raising up Moses to do His bidding.
Pharaoh
saw Moses, but it was God that came in and started troubling Pharaoh and the
land of Egypt. God’s ways go past our comprehension, but He is always
purposeful in His movements. As God was troubling the land of Egypt, He was
also preparing to bring Israel out in a way that made a name for Himself. God
said, “I’m doing it again,” and I’m restoring My name in the earth (Eze 36).
As
it was in the days of Israel, so it is today. There are many modern-day
Pharaohs and Egyptians that God is troubling right now. Not just our earth
system, but also the old gatekeepers of our soul that has held us hostage long
enough. It is the pain that was left from old traumatic experiences (small or
big) that became numb that sits in the backend of our soul. What we can’t see
was calling the shots on who we are today. The real us, we haven’t met yet.
The “day of the Lord” is the judgment of sin in the earth, but it is also the awakening of His remnant army. It’s the changing of Heavens guards and He is bringing His divine release to those things that held us captives, like the release of Israel across the Red Sea. This hour we are living in has been preordained and you have been earmarked for this hour by way of covenant. Like Israel was the recipients of the covenant God made with Abraham. We are the recipients of the covenant God has with Jesus that the blessing of Abraham might come upon the Gentiles (Gal. 3:14).
