Overwhelming Joy is upon you!

Last year in August of 2019 I asked the Lord for a word from him and he brought me to Isaiah 35, specifically in the passion translation. When I read it for the first time I knew this was for me and I’ve been meditating on it ever since. As I sat in this chapter of one of my favorite books of the Bible, I realized that this word was not just for me, it was also for many of you in the body of Christ. It’s always exciting to me when God gives me a word that I know has more than one direction: my heart and then to other’s hearts. I’m still growing in the prophetic and learning how to steward the words that God gives me appropriately, so it took me quite a while to finish this word. I would write some of it and then I would come back to it because I wanted to make sure that I understood as much as possible what the Holy Spirit was showing me personally. But most of you know that God’s word is multifaceted, and there is so much revelation to be received and so much to learn and it’s glorious!

Isaiah 35 says this: 

“The wilderness and dry land will be joyously glad! The desert will blossom like a rose and rejoice! Every dry and barren place will burst forth with abundant blossoms, dancing and spinning with delight. Lebanon’s lush splendor covers it, the magnificent beauty of Carmel and Sharon. My people will see the awesome glory of Yahweh, the beautiful grandeur of our God.  Strengthen those who are discouraged! Energize those who feel defeated. Say to the anxious and fearful: be strong and never afraid! Look! Here comes your God! He is breaking through to give you victory! He comes to avenge your enemies. With divine retribution he comes to save you! Then blind eyes will open and deaf ears will hear. Then the lame will leap like playful deer and the tongue tied will sing songs of triumph. Gushing water will spring up in the wilderness and streams will flow in the desert. The burning sand will become a refreshing oasis, the parched ground bubbling springs, and the Dragon’s Lair a meadow with grass, reeds and papyrus. There will be a highway of holiness called the sacred way. The impure will not be permitted on this road but it will be accessible to God’s people and not even fools will lose their way. The lion will not be found there; no wild beast will travel on it, they will not be found there. But the redeemed will find a pathway on it. Yahweh’s ransomed ones will return with glee to Zion. They will enter with a song of rejoicing and be crowned with everlasting joy. Ecstatic joy will overwhelm them; weariness and grief will disappear.”

My friends, now read and receive what I believe our Father wants to speak to you: 

"Beloved,
Every dry place, every dormant dream, the places you’ve laid down for whatever reason are coming alive and will be fruitful again!
In this fruitful place, you My sons and daughters, will see with your own eyes My glory and magnificence, My awesomeness as I fulfill hopes, dreams, longings and promises.
My children, as you are strengthened and energized by My hand, as you are set free from anxiousness and fear, Now declare this freedom over others with the authority of Jesus! At this present time your God, the living God, is breaking through for you bringing you victory in every area of your life so you can run in all I have called you to. I Am most certainly right now avenging the enemy on your behalf so that everything that was stolen from you will be paid back in full and double!
I Am opening up eyes to see and ears to hear what My spirit is saying-Just Ask Me for it!  Those who have felt weighed down, troubled and distressed are about to leap for joy as those things break off in Jesus’ name! Those who have felt like they lost their voice are about to find it again! You will speak My words without fear and with great authority never to be silenced again by the enemy! No on the contrary, the enemy is forever silenced, never to taunt to YOU again! 
The areas in your life that have been difficult or the things that have been difficult will now become easy and refreshing for you. And again, the dry, barren places in your life will come alive and flourish!
As you step into this new season, this new land that I have opened up and have given you, the enemy cannot follow, he cannot enter into this new land and season. Just like pharaoh and the Egyptians were not permitted to cross the Red Sea following the Israelites, the enemy is not permitted to cross over. Those who dared to, were swallowed up by the sea never to be heard from again. In reality the stepping into a new season is actually returning to your rightful place or coming full circle. You are stepping Into the land promised to you, the lane you should run in, the place and places you were destined to transform through the power of the Holy Spirit! This entering is actually a returning. The wandering wilderness is over! The days of frustration, weariness and grief are over. You shall be overwhelmed with joy in this new place and everything that caused weariness and grief will disappear into thin air. It will feel as if it never happened. Not only will weariness and grief disappear but the effects of weariness and grief. You will feel like a new person." Amen 





What wonderful news! Hallelujah! God is GOOD!
I hope this encouraged you today!

Love, Kristin
