Getting Out of the Valleys of Discouragement

The Lord is bringing us out of three valleys and into a time of refreshment. Get ready to get a drink from the Lord!

Breakthrough happening right now

I will turn their mourning into gladness; I will give them comfort instead of sorrow.
Jeremiah 31:13 NIV

The Lord has given you everything you need to succeed but you will need to step up and take it. The enemy is trying to keep you from entering this time.

The Lord is releasing a fresh drink of the Holy Spirit and we are being prepared for change in the spiritual atmosphere.

To offset the attacks of Satan, the Lord is releasing visitations and encounters in dreams—also, visions and a deeper connection with the Father’s heart.

The heavens are now open and ripe to encounter the Lord!

Refreshment is here

How enriched are they who find their strength in the Lord; within their hearts are the highways of holiness! They grow stronger and stronger with every step forward, and the God of all gods will appear before them in Zion. Psalm 84:5,7 TPT 

The Lord is releasing spiritual refreshment that will bring you into deeper levels of His intimacy. Keep taking steps forward every day. Don’t look back, slow down or stop!

You are moving out of the wilderness. Trust that the Lord has you covered!

We are coming out of three valleys

The Lord is bringing people out of three valleys—the Valley of Tears, the Valley of the Shadow of Death and the Valley of Dry Bones. Some people are in one valley, others may be walking through more than one at a time.

The Valley of Tears

Even when their paths wind through the dark valley of tears, they dig deep to find a pleasant pool where others find only pain. He gives to them a brook of blessing filled from the rain of an outpouring. Psalm 84:6 TPT

Have you been weeping before the Lord, and it seems like your prayers are going unanswered? This may be because you are stuck in the Valley of Tears.

The Lord is bringing you out of this season and you are about to receive “a brook of blessing filled from the rain of an outpouring.”

The Valley of the Shadow of Death

Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; for You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me. Psalm 23:4 NKJV 

The Valley of the Shadow of Death is a dark season of loneliness, and you may be attacked by fear and depression. The Lord is bringing new authority to overcome.

Watch for the Lord to reveal the source of what got you into this place, as well as the solutions to help get you out.

The Valley of Dry Bones

The hand of the Lord came upon me and brought me out in the Spirit of the Lord, and set me down in the midst of the valley; and it was full of bones. Thus says the Lord God to these bones: “Surely I will cause breath to enter into you, and you shall live.”  Ezekiel 37:1,5 NKJV

Millions of people have been in the Valley of Dry Bones. A symptom of this condition is feeling scattered, hopeless, lifeless or depressed. The Lord is breathing life into you, and He will bring things together.

The love of the Father breaks through for you

And he will go on before the Lord, in the spirit and power of Elijah, to turn the hearts of the parents to their children and the disobedient to the wisdom of the righteous—to make ready a people prepared for the Lord. Luke 1:17 NIV

The Lord is releasing the spirit of Elijah which will turn the hearts of the parents to the children. This will bring spiritual alignment and prepare us for visitations and personal renewal.

Get ready to encounter a greater understanding of the Lord’s love for you. This will bring major healing to your heart, and it will spill over into your relationships as well.

Mourning is coming to an end

Then I looked, and I saw a hand stretched out to me. In it was a scroll, which he unrolled before me. On both sides of it were written words of lament and mourning and woe. Ezekiel 2:9–10 NIV

 The Lord is bringing an end to the long and difficult season of mourning, sorrow and loss. We are coming out of a dry and barren time; and the Lord is moving to set us free starting in February. This is a major turning point spiritually!

The release of sweet revelation

Then he said to me, “Son of man, eat this scroll I am giving you and fill your stomach with it.” So I ate it, and it tasted as sweet as honey in my mouth. Ezekiel 3:3 NIV

This is the start of a new season unlike any we have seen in the past. The Lord is releasing fresh revelation, wisdom and understanding.

 There is a powerful anointing on the “Revelation Song.” I have been getting a lot out of Jenn Johnson’s live version on YouTube. There is a strong release of the mysteries of the Lord over this. 

The sufferings and trials are going to begin to make sense and the Lord is going to redeem it all for His glory!
