Sea of trouble parting
Ask the Lord for rain in the springtime; it is the Lord who sends the thunderstorms. He gives showers of rain to all people, and plants of the field to everyone … They will pass through the sea of trouble; the surging sea will be subdued and all the depths of the Nile will dry up … Zechariah 10:1, 11 NIV
The Lord is going to bring spiritual refreshment like that of the spring rains. This is preparation for the coming year, in which God is releasing the long-awaited fulfillment of the promises you have been holding on to.
For many, though, this time of preparation has been too painful and not refreshing. While the rains and storms of life are necessary to prepare and strengthen you, they can sometimes turn into a sea of trouble.
If that is you, I have good news! God is going to allow you to pass through your sea of trouble and the attacks of the enemy are going to start to dry up.
No more delay
I had a powerful encounter with the Lord last month in which He spoke to me a simple message from Revelation 10:6: “… There will be no more delay!” (NIV). This actually happened five times throughout the day; my Bible opened to this same page over and over. I can still hear His voice speaking these words: “There will be no more delay!”
Understanding God’s timing is not always easy. There are times when God speaks, and things happen and are crystal clear. Other seasons of life can seem to drag on and on. I want to encourage you to hold on, as things are already starting to shift and change.
Another thing I keep hearing the Lord say is:
For the revelation awaits an appointed time; it speaks of the end and will not prove false. Though it linger, wait for it; it will certainly come and will not delay. Habakkuk 2:3 NIV
God will use prophetic words, dreams and visions to tell us the end from the beginning. When this happens, He is giving you a picture of things that are coming so that you will contend through your storms and seas of trouble. “Though it linger, wait for it; it will certainly come and will not delay!”
New prophetic power and authority
I had an encounter with the Lord in October where He showed me two new things being released in the spirit. He spoke to me the words from Amos 8:11:
“The days are coming,” declares the Sovereign Lord, “when I will send a famine through the land—not a famine of food or a thirst for water, but a famine of hearing the words of the Lord. (NIV)
The Lord said, “There has been a famine with prophetic words. Yes, my prophets are hearing me and prophesying, but there has been a famine with solutions that will break open the way before you. This is why it appears that the enemy is winning. I am going to bring a change in the prophetic words coming from Heaven!”
God released more revelation on this a few days later. He said, “I am now releasing a new power and anointing on words that will be like a fire and a hammer that will break open the way!”
“Is not my word like fire,” declares the Lord, “and like a hammer that breaks a rock in pieces? Jeremiah 23:29 NIV
I saw silver hammers being given to many people everywhere who have been prepared for it. The Lord said, “You cannot use this new hammer to judge or curse. It is designed to break open the way where the enemy has blocked you.”
In the encounter, I was given a silver hammer and I was able to use it on the avalanche of attacks that have been coming my way. I was able to break through the attacks and things started feeling lighter.
Watch for your sea of trouble to part and your thunderstorms to turn into refreshing rains. The Lord is speaking the words, “No more delay,” so get ready for things to happen suddenly. Watch for a change in getting the real-time solutions from Heaven that you have needed. Also, get ready to step into a new power and anointing in your words and prayers.
Blessings,

About two years ago, i woke up with i assumed some dizziness in my ears. Then as i listened closer, the sound was more like whispering leaves. It continued by changing in a heavy rain. A rain pouring everywhere, soaking everything, with dense drops. It seemed there were no clouds, still it rained. A very refreshing rain and it touched everything ! Nothing was left out. It lasted about 30 seconds.
In August 2018, in the morning about nine o’clock, i had a brief vision of a two edged sword. It sparkled like gold. i didn’t see the whole sword, just a part of the blade and i heard audibly the sharpness of the metal as it came down to strike. Three days later i saw a brief vision of a burning flame. It was orange and red and seemed alive and all knowing. You are a flame, You are breath !
(Breath in and out, so you can move in and out. Use your pen as a military act and mighty weapon of warfare. The word Victory is engraved on the pen of the scribes and their words are likened to a sharpened two-edged sword).
For we have the living Word of God, which is full of energy (Hebr. 4:12). The Passion Translation adds: There is a hint here of the spinning sword of fire, held by the angel guarding the way to the tree of life. To come eat its fruit, you must pass through the mighty sword of fire, through this “fire-sword” on our way into the Holy of Holies. When the veil was split in two, the cherubim, embroidered on the veil parted, as it were, to allow every worshiper to enter into the unveiled presence of God. Our Lord says: come freely and boldly and receive My mercy’s kiss and discover the grace you urgently need to strengthen you in your time of weakness.
Thanks for sharing with us!

First and foremost, thank you for this prophetic word! Its funny today that Habakkuk 2:3 was the exact scripture, early today, that came forth in my spirit as I felt bad that things were not available and I had thought God had forgotten me.
But, I remember distinctly the approximate time which was a little 11:30ish this am. But, when I had read it and as I was reading it, the anxiety dropped off. The fear became joy and I tuned into my music even and began to dance.
Simply put this was the confirmation that All is truly well. God has not forgetten and that I’m doing the right thing.
Awesome Matthew! That is wonderful! Thank you for sharing!

I am agreeing with you now for your dad to be completely healed in Jesus name!
Thank you for that word. It lifts up my spirit. Feel I’ve been on the sidelines lately just waiting and sometimes feel discouraged not getting a prophetic word. There’s unbelief in the church of the prophetic.
God bless you Ana! I love prophesy and getting words. But one of my favorite things to do when I haven’t had a prophetic word is to sit with the Lord and ask Him to speak to me. Doug has a free webinar on hearing God that you can listen to here, https://dougaddison.com/hearing-god-webinar/.
I also am praying for you to having prophetic friends around you.
Bless you Ana!
My son has mental place llness. Y cant I feel Hod presence. No joy just feel pain I’m depress all the time. I’m a Christian. I don’t understand the joy Bless.
Hey Jockline. I am praying now for your son to be completely delivered and set free in Jesus name.
Here is a list of other healing resources and ministries we recommend, https://dougaddison.com/healing-resources/.
No matter what you are believing God for, here are some simple but foundational steps that you can do daily to help build hope and strengthen your faith and trust in the Lord.
Worship: Play worship music. You can stream from Amazon worship or Pandora. I leave mine on so that it plays all day.
Pray: Find Bible verses for the promises you are believing for or the situation that you are in and pray them every day.
Communion: Sit with the Lord and take communion daily if possible.
OHHHHHHHHH!
You have NO idea how GOOD this is for me to read…I’m at the point of shutting down…Thank you and GOD BLESS you and Prosper and empower and Provide for you-all!
Awesome Viv! I am so glad that Doug’s word was encouraging for you. God bless you as you step into everything the Lord has for you!
On June 9th after coming back from a healing school at Bethel in Redding, I was home in bed and at approx. 3am I heard a voice which shot me out of bed. It said “7 HANDS”. One other time I had an audible voice like that from God. I have been praying into perfection of healing hands ever since.
