The Wind of Change angel is blowing, but it is not a strong wind like in the past. In this season, the Lord is moving in subtle ways beneath the surface. It is the enemy who is trying to get you to think that the storms are real and the Lord has forgotten your situation. The storms are actually a distraction from the subtle voice of the Lord that is being released right now.
I saw many people standing before closed doors waiting in the darkness. These were the ones who had been given strategies and strong prophetic words from the Lord that started but never fully came about. The doors are about to open and the strategies for being set free are coming—and it’s starting this month.
The Lord said, “Look back at what happened four years ago because these are the things that are now coming.”
I looked in my journal and four years ago I had just come from prophet Bob Jones’ funeral where I had received a major healing. I also had some spiritual encounters and prophetic words. Those things seemed to have started something, but then the momentum stopped. At that point things seem to look opposite from what I had heard God say.
I went through another few years of a major affliction. Last year I got a healing breakthrough, but there was still a persistent attack on my immune system that has kept me from traveling. The good news is, after getting this word from the Lord, I got healed!! This is evidence that what God started in 2014 is now coming in all areas of our lives.
Go back to the spring of 2014 and ask the Lord to show you if this applies to you. If you see anything like this, then it is time to press in and ask the Lord for a recovery plan.
The Lord showed me that in 2014 there were also people who were called to do amazing things that never came about. Instead, a very high level deceptive attack came. This was in the form of words that sounded like they were from the Lord but they were not.
When Jesus heard this, he said to him, “You still lack one thing. Sell everything you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.” Luke 18:22
The enemy’s strategy to bring financial ruin to those who had callings was to get them to sell it all too soon. They knew that the Lord would call them someday to sell it all and give their lives to the very purpose the Lord had called them to.
Many of these wonderful people misinterpreted this prophetic word and sold everything physically and went into a time of seclusion and not making money. This resulted in financial ruin for them. The Lord was calling them to sell everything in their hearts and lives while building their finances up so that they could release and fulfill what is now coming four years later.
If this is you, then you might be one of those now standing in front of the closed door hidden in darkness. The Lord has not forgotten you! Ask God to give you a strategy to recover it all and make the money you need to regain your finances and prepare for what is coming.
On February 2, 2018 in the U.S. we celebrated Groundhog Day. This is when Americans watch a groundhog come out of its hole; legend has it that if it sees its shadow and goes back into the hole, then we are in for six more weeks of winter.
There was also a movie produced about this in which a man would repeat a day in his life over and over until he got it right. The Lord is doing something new and it is important that we don’t become afraid and go back in our holes like the groundhog.
This is a time to break away from our fears and anything from previous seasons that is still hindering us. Then we can allow God to release the new season to us. Those who are not embracing the pain from the past may be destined to repeat it. But you can change that right now by asking God to reveal anything that is causing you to have repeated “trip ups”, failures or sicknesses.
The enemy of our soul has launched a perfect storm against us. Satan has overplayed his hand trying to get you discouraged and to take your eyes off what God is releasing in the spirit. Starting in March the Lord is releasing the perfect solution for your perfect storm.
A perfect storm is when spiritual warfare, tragedies, and traumatic events hit our lives from different directions all at the same time. It is important to respond like Jesus did when the storm hit the boat He was in. He slept in the belly of the boat and was kept in perfect peace (Isaiah 26:3). Then He got up, rebuked it and quieted the storm (Mark 4:35–41).
Watch for God to start releasing strategies in your life that will allow you to prosper in the midst of the storm. It’s time to recover it all. The enemy has been hitting you too hard and God is now going to strike back with His plan of blessing, peace and authority.
I heard God say to call a 40-day fast for the revival that is about to start in California. As California awakens, the revival will spread all around the world.
“Call My people to a 40-day fast from negative talk and negative thoughts and have them replace them with joy and love!”
The Lord was clear: this does not need to be a fast like we have fasted before. This is a celebration of what is coming and it will open the heavens over us, our cities and over the revival that is bursting forth in California.
We started on March 1—but it’s not too late to join my friends Lou Engle, Keith Ferrante and me on this 40-Day Fast to open the heavens for revival in California and the world. Find out here more here.
Blessings,

Hi doug: That was me. I sold a lot of my stuff and moved to Morningstar and am writing a book but have lost all my finances. I am walking on faith each month. Have not been able to find a job. Writing the book and going to get it out very soon. It is my charge and I know I am in the right place now but this is me. “Many of these wonderful people misinterpreted this prophetic word and sold everything physically and went into a time of seclusion and not making money. This resulted in financial ruin for them. The Lord was calling them to sell everything in their hearts and lives while building their finances up so that they could release and fulfill what is now coming four years later.”
Finances are coming. Woke up with this prayer: Lord I need strategies to find the treasure of finances that are so abundant!
Agreeing with you for a financial breakthrough Karen. Doug has a great book called Flip Your Finacial Future that might assist you during this time. Bless you Karen!
I looked back in my prayer journal for March 2014 as per the prophetic word. I ran across this that might interest you Doug:
“As I was looking on Doug’s page this morning for today’s daily prophetic, I saw he posted a picture someone had sent him. There was a shelf of name cups, like you can get in a touristy gift shop, and “Doug” “Addison” were right next to each other on the shelf. LOL. So while I was looking at the photo, the Lord gave me a word about it for Doug, very simple. “It’s a gift shop! Get it? God has more in store for you Doug Addison!” And now all I can think of, is “My CUP overflows!”
Continuing to pray for blessings, grace, and favor over you Doug Addison. Thank you for all you do.
Woohoo! That is wonderful! Thank you for sharing that with us Christine! Bless you!
I receivew this propbetic word.Thank you very much.
I am joining the 40-day fast.
Wonderful Rhea! We are delighted to have you join with us. Bless you!
I fully receive and agree with this word you released. I know this was from the Lord. A word in season as it describes in detail what we have been walking through. As always, thank you for your submission and sacrifice to fulfill His call on your life.
Wonderful Sharon. I am so glad this word is fitting for the season you are walking through. Bless you during this time!
I love Doug’s blogs, articles, and videos. This year began with a negativity fast for me, inspired by Doug. Last week’s article on Elijah List got me so excited. However, I’ve been under attack since. I feel as though an all-assault has been launched against me and I’m struggling to press in. Past wounds and issues seem to be stirring and bringing confusion. I feel paralyzed and without vision. Please pray for me to break through.
Hey Rena! You are not alone in this at all! As you may know, often when we press in and contend, we do see others things “pop up.” This is a good thing because you are pressing in and moving forward. Be encouraged, stay humble with the Lord, and keep going! You are doing an amazing job. Proud of you :).
Please pray for me. Over the past eight months I have been hit in my body causing numbness and pain in my hands and into my legs and feet. Causing me to have difficulty walking and using my hands. I know it is a attack of the enemy. I know the Lord has healed me I just haven’t seen it manifest in my body. I’m a born again spirit filled Christian and know nothing is impossible with the Lord. I’ve seen miracles and believe.
Agreeing for complete healing your in body Cris! I love your mindset through all of this. You are so right, nothing is impossible with the Lord. God loves you so much Cris.
You may find Doug’s webinar A Time to Heal greatly beneficial during this time. In this webinar Doug goes into topics such as how to stay healed. Bless you!
My wife and I both agree to fast along with your ministry! We want to rid ourselves 100% of all negativity for Life..We Wholeheartedly Embrace all the Breakthroughs God has for our lives..Body…Soul and Spirit…Financial Favor!! Spiritual Favor!! Relational Favor in every area of our Lives!!
Woohoo! That is amazing! Bless you both Juan!
I am so blessed and encouraged by this Awesome spot on prophetic word. This has lifted my spirit big time. I have just gone through my perfect storm. OMW! I took my son to hospital on Feb, 19 2018, he was going for a major op to reverse , 3 Stoma bags and connect his intestines. After dropping him off, I went home… I am busy finishing& completing my first book. I had a ‘black out, first time ever, fell. I was weariny reading glasses, a metal frame. It damaged my eye so badly, it pushed my eye back into the socket…. Blinded my left eye. My husband rushed me to hospital, emergency, trauma unit. I had an operation. My son had his operation at the same time, he was wheeled out of theatre. Rushed back in, had a heart attack…. We are both doing fine now. Still have stitches in my left you… My son had the Staples removed& back @ work. Praise God!! Doug, you said go back to March 2014, I did.. I checked my journal … I dreamt I had an eye operation on March,6,2014… Wow!! I havedreamt the Op was successful & I could see perfectly, that gave me hope again. I have very little vision in that eye… It’s still hazy! Thank you for sharing. Shalome& Blessings. Denise A. Moosa. Cape Town SA
Wow Denise! I am so glad to hear that your eye is doing better. I am agreeing with you for completely clear vision in your eye. Bless you!
to me Jesus words to the man in Luke 18 means let go of your own old ideas of who God is and follow Him and find out who He really is. I have been reading and investigating the ways of the early church, the desert fathers, and how they experienced God when they had no Bible and the church grew. It was different than I thought and quite amazing and I feel like He wants to bring that back to us all in these times.
Thanks for sharing Paul!
