As we cry out to God from a place of hunger for Him and His presence, and from a place of desperation for His answers, He in His extravagant mercy, pours out on us everything we need for life and godliness. His grace is sufficient, His kindness is unending, and His love is everlasting. As we pull on heaven, heaven responds. No matter how great the fire is that we are in, He is the 4th man in the fire. He is with us and is pouring out His refreshing grace and hope upon us.
The Lord is calling His people to a deeper place of intimacy with Him and deeper intercession for our lives and for others. He is ready to pour out upon us and this land.
“If my people, who are called by My name, will humble themselves and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.”
Ascending the mountain of the Lord is not always easy. At times it is strenuous and difficult. The anointing of God comes at a price. Just like the process of making oil, there is pressing and crushing. At each level there are new challenges and obstacles. But as you set your foot securely in Him, you will not slip or fall. Trust Him at each point and allow the process that is required. The Father is calling you up higher and higher. Greater dreams, greater encounters, greater mantles. "Not by might, nor by power, but by My Spirit says the Lord of hosts." (Zech 4:11)
Dan 2:22 “He reveals deep and hidden things; he knows what lies in darkness, and light dwells with him.”
The Lord says you are a Daniel. You love to unlock the hidden things and discover the mysteries of the Kingdom. Your love for the prophetic and your hunger for truth guides you (compass and map). You have a deep desire to unlock and discover truth and for others to uncover truth as well. Like Daniel, you are a messenger. You have been faithful with little and with much, and so the Father trusts you with keys that will unlock many things for people including kingdom resources. There is an unlocking of kingdom wealth that the Lord is giving you to steward and even an unlocking of people to help position them for destiny. Your curious nature is a quality that the Father takes great delight in. You are a pioneer and He enjoys going on adventures with you.
1Kings 18 there was a drought in the land. But before the Lord dealt with the drought first He dealt with the idols and false prophets and had Elijah rebuild the altar of the Lord. Then, he had Elijah pray for rain. Before the rain came he heard a sound...
It was a sound of abundance..it was a murmur, tumult, rush, multitude, wealth, ROAR of a heavy shower! He heard the sound before he saw with his natural eyes... Lord is releasing a sound in the Earth right now of abundance of rain... Can you hear it? Can you hear the sound?
Then he saw the cloud it was small... But the Lord says, "Do not despise the days of small beginnings." He's getting ready to pour out His abundance upon you and your circumstance! Your drought is ending! Can you hear it? Can you see it?
The altar Elijah built at 12 Stones and a trench around it... I saw the fire of God like a rainbow because we serve a God of covenant. All the promises of God start at the altar of our heart. Check your altar...What do you have there that the Lord needs to deal with right now? Let they're pure refining fire of God cleanse you... So he can do the outpouring on you.
Waterfall-Holy Spirit flowing, refreshment, higher level anointing.
Rainbow- Promises, Covenant
Psalm 43:7 "Deep calls to deep at the sound if your waterfalls. All your wanted and breakers crash over me."
The Lord is calling us deeper in Him so that we can go higher in the spirit with Him. 2 Samuel 5 David inquires of the Lord for the strategies to defeat the Philistines. The Lord is also downloading strategies to us right now. Each situation is different, and the way He wants to do things is different. We must inquire of the Lord for his instructions and His purposes. He is releasing His glory and the Earth right now through everything we go through. His promises are yes and amen! He's already done it!
(You see the angels?)
Psalm 91 NIV
1 Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High
will rest in the shadow of the Almighty.[a]
2 I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress,
my God, in whom I trust.”
3 Surely he will save you
from the fowler’s snare
and from the deadly pestilence.
4 He will cover you with his feathers,
and under his wings you will find refuge;
his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart.
5 You will not fear the terror of night,
nor the arrow that flies by day,
6 nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness,
nor the plague that destroys at midday.
7 A thousand may fall at your side,
ten thousand at your right hand,
but it will not come near you.
8 You will only observe with your eyes
and see the punishment of the wicked.
9 If you say, “The Lord is my refuge,”
and you make the Most High your dwelling,
10 no harm will overtake you,
no disaster will come near your tent.
11 For he will command his angels concerning you
to guard you in all your ways;
12 they will lift you up in their hands,
so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.
13 You will tread on the lion and the cobra;
you will trample the great lion and the serpent.
14 “Because he[b] loves me,” says the Lord, “I will rescue him;
I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name.
15 He will call on me, and I will answer him;
I will be with him in trouble,
I will deliver him and honor him.
16 With long life I will satisfy him
and show him my salvation.”
The Lord God King of the universe is Jehovah Jireh your provider. He IS the God who sees. He sees you and hears you. He has provided everything you need for life and godliness. He has He has provided the way of escape. He has provided your Victory. He is your Source. He is the Lover of your soul. Your breakthrough is at hand.
I see you both planting a garden with the Father. You begin by searching out for just the right field. You then purchase the field and begin plowing. You are ever so careful and diligent to removing all the rocks and sticks. I see you praying over the field. Both of you are willing to pay the price and are not afraid to get your hands dirty. Then I see you planting seeds in the field. Tending to the seeds, praying, nurturing watering…. Carefully tending to the watching for the needs of each plant and fulfilling it. You both have a servant's heart...And love to love.
Then I see the plants growing to fullness and maturity and you harvesting the fruit of your labors. The Lord wants to encourage you to enjoy every step of the journey. There is a price to pay in order to receive the fullness of your dreams. Some days are really hard and it seems like the plowing will never end, but then there's times when you start to see the little buds springing up and fills you with so much hope and pleasure; and yet that's just the beginning because there's such a long journey ahead before the fruit comes.
You both carry so much creativity. The Father has placed such passion in you to see the Kingdom advance, and the way He has for you to plant and design the field it's all unique just to you. There is no blueprint to follow except the leading of the Holy Spirit. The covenant of marriage is a beautiful picture of how the Lord co-labors with us, His Bride. Each individual carries unique gifts and passions that are anointed separately, but when the Father brings them together there is great power and authority to accomplish so much more. There is synergy and so such joy when we doing it together. Two really are better than one.
I see you soaring like an eagle. As an innovator and a pioneer, you love challenges and trying new things. You are not a settler and have a deep desire go forward and advance the Kingdom in the earth. The Father has given you eyes to see and ears to hear what the Spirit is saying. You desire to know the Lord more and more. Your prayer is to have His heart for the world and for individuals. “In Him you live and move and have your being.” You want to move and flow with the wind of His Spirit. I see the Father taking you higher and higher in the Spirit. Even in your prayer life He wants to show you things from His perspective so you will know how pray. He wants you to see things in the glory realm.
“Do not call to mind the former things, or ponder things of the past. “Behold, I will do something new, now it will spring forth; Will you not be aware of it? I will even make a roadway in the wilderness, rivers in the desert.” Is 43:18-19
I saw you as a gardener. You are so excited about seeing each person bloom and become everything the Father has for them. You take time and special care with each “plant” to be sure it has everything it needs to grow and flourish. You gently take your tools and loosen the soil around the plant to prepare the heart to receive truth. You fertilize with the word of God, you give refreshing water as the Spirit leads, you even help pluck out the weeds that try to encroach upon what the Lord is doing.
I heard “sweet surrender”. Because you have been forgiven much, you love much. Your devotion and surrender to the Lord are a sweet aroma to Him. You are a worshipper. Romans 12:1-2 describes you “Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship. 2 Do not conform to the pattern of this world but, be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.” As a handmaiden of the Lord, you bring Him much joy and pleasure.
I see the Lord expanding your borders and widening your harvest field. You have been a wise steward with your talents and He is making you ruler over much. Increase is coming! The chair is to remind you to rest in the midst of it all.

Lyrics:
"I was never lost to You. I was never lost to You.
You wanted me in my worst. You called me Your conqueror. You gave me strength to fly. Cuz, You know I needed Your strength to fly.
You knew me first, my love. You knew me first, my love. You made a way when there was none. The Great Escape back to where I begun. You taught me the right way to run. Oh You taught me the right way to run.
You have a way of attracting me. Profound love profounding me. Your presence is where I release. Your presence is resurrecting me.
Why would I run from Your love? How could I run from Your love. Anywhere You go let me go too. Down any path You so choose. Better is one day in Your court. Just one hour in Your court. Just one second in Your majesty. Oh to love You for all eternity."
The Lord is extending His hand ready to exchange. He is ready and waiting. We need to be willing to give up what we have to receive what He has.
It's all available to us. Jesus made the ultimate Exchange when He gave us Life by His death.
He exchanges our captivity for Liberty, our prisons for Freedom, our rejection for favor, our depression for Joy, our mourning for comfort, fear for trust, discouragement for hope, sickness for healing, apathy for passion, intimidation for boldness, confusion for clarity, survival for Destiny, defeat for victory.
Isaiah 61 says that when we do this exchange, we will become “Oaks of righteousness”. He plants us so we can display His glory in the earth!
We are to be transformed so that we can transform.
God gets glorified and then we are able to rebuild ruined cities and raise up former devastations… He's wanting us to repair and rebuild si that His glory fills the Earth. Be transformed to transform.
Psalm 34:8 “Taste and see that the Lord is good; blessed is the one who takes refuge in him.”
John 15:5 “I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing.”
You have tasted of the sweetness and goodness of the Lord, and your heart’s cry is for others to know and experience this as well. You have a very sweet relationship with the Lord and you want this for others. Fruit is very important to you. You want to see action and results. You have a determination and drive about you that is contagious to others. You can get people moving and doing things that they may not have done on their own. The Lord is your strength and you want to bring others to the place where they discover Jesus as their source of strength in weakness. You live in a beautiful surrendered place where you allow and even welcome the pruning of the Lord. Because of this, you are a life coach to many by teaching them to grow with Christ in mind, body, and spirit. Abiding, abiding, abiding. Fruit, fruit, fruit. You have been asking for wisdom, and therefore there is an increase coming to your discernment as well as strategies being downloaded to you. This is harvest time for you and your family.
The eagle is the prophetic and the lion is the apostolic. You are a pioneer and a visionary. He has given you keen prophetic sight that of like an eagle. You can see things from far off and you look at circumstances from a higher perspective. You value truth and highly honor the word of the Lord. You are very relational and understand how the Body is jointly fitted together to operate and function as the true Ekklesia in the earth. There is a governmental mantel that you carry to nurture and father the generations. The apostolic/prophetic call upon you is for the unlocking of destinies. The eagle sees the blueprints from the heavenly realms and the lion leads and directs others to carry out the work of the Lord.
I heard “mountain shaker”. The Lord has called you to possess mountains. And everywhere you foot treads, He has given to you. The sound of the Lion of Judah will come forth out of your mouth and cause these mountains to shake at the word of the Lord. The sound of His voice through you will cause a reaction, and those things that are not of the kingdom of God and they will be removed.
Ezekiel 43:2 “and behold, the glory of the God of Israel was coming from the way of the east. And His voice was like the sound of many waters; and the earth shone with His glory.”
You are a faithful servant of the Lord. You are consistent and unwavering. I heard the Lord describe you as a “lily of the valley”. These flowers bend as though bowing in worship and humility. They are white for purity, beauty and grace. The shape of the flowers is like bells. Bells represent releasing the sound of liberty and the call to prayer.
I saw you as a clay pot that is being poured out. A clay pot is a humble and yielded vessel that the Holy Spirit can use to accomplish His purposes through. The pot was tipping and pouring for others to be filled and refreshed. As you pour out your life as a drink offering, so many lives are being touched and enriched by your faithfulness.
The scripture I heard was Isaiah 52:7 “How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of those who bring good news, who proclaim peace, who bring good tidings, who proclaim salvation, who say to Zion, ‘Your God reigns!’”
There are many more adventures ahead for you! Heaven thanks you for your willingness to GO!

This depicts the fivefold ministry Jesus gave to the Church. Jesus was the perfect balance of all five. The keys are necessary to unlock the hidden things of the kingdom.
Apostle (Purple-Lion) authority leadership
Prophet (Blue-Eagle) revelation and heaven
Pastor (Green-Lamb) healing, life, and growth
Teacher (Yellow-Owl) wisdom and understanding
Evangelist (Orange-Dove) fire revival
The keyhole is the throne of God releasing the seven Spirits of God into the earth.
Painted at David's Tent
The Lord is passionately pursuing you. He wants you to reach into the depths of Him as He reaches into the depths of you. "Deep calls out to deep at the sound of your waterfalls, all your breakers and your waves have rolled over me." He's calling you deeper, and it's time to respond. "As a deer pants for the water brooks, oh my soul pants for you oh God. My soul thirsts for God, for the living God. When shall I come and appear before God?" He is making a way for you where there seems to be no way. Hope in Him and Trust Him.
I saw honeycomb dripping with honey. Honeycomb is intimacy with the Lord and the sweetness of His presence. Honey also represents revelation and anointing which comes from the secret place. From that place the Lord gives us revelation and opens the Scrolls of Heaven for us to release his heart into the land. Out of worship and intercession from The Father's heart comes the Word of the Lord to decree into the land. From that beautiful place comes the River of God that heals our Land.
Painted at Let Your Glory Fall conference by Worship City Nashville Tennessee with Jason Hershey from David's Tent DC
The Lord is pouring out His healing on you and on the land. If we who are called by His name humble ourselves, pray, and seek His face, then He will hear from heaven and heal our land. If any among you are sick, call on the elders. He is pouring out His healing anointing on your mind, and soul. Receive His gift to you. New life and growth will spring forth speedily.
The Lion of Judah is an all consuming fire. He is releasing waves of HIS glory.
Mississippi is at a KEY POINT! The foundation is humility and honoring one another. As we do, revelation God's government will come to the earth realm. The Lord is unlocking Mississippi's destiny and releasing a Revival fire that will be carried throughout the United States. The key is love and unity. He is converging rivers and streams to bring His glory. There is a hunger in Mississippi for awakening like never before. There is a coming together of streams like never before. Mississippi will be a prototype to the nation of working AS ONE!
The painting shows you covered in safety with Jesus’ wings.
Night and day you are covered in His protection. You will be safe from terror at night and destruction at noon.
The tower and fortress is also a place of safety and refuge in the Lord even from the young lion.
The bubble around you is a “wall of fire” as in Zech. 2:5
The angel at the top is holding a sword and a shield. He is guarding you from the arrows coming in the darkness.
The angels guard you in all your ways and bear you up in their hands.
Because you have made the Lord your refuge and your dwelling place, no evil will befall you, nor do any plagues come near your home.
The Lord is passionately pursuing you. He wants you to reach into the depths of Him as He reaches into the depths of you. Deep calls out to Deep. He's calling you deeper, and it's time to respond. He is parting the waters for you andHe is making a way for you where there seems to be no way. Trust Him.
I saw the sun rising behind the treasure chest and I heard a "Arise and shine" for His light has come and the glory of the Lord has risen upon you.
The Lord has everything you need. He is ready to pour out His glory to you and through you.
I saw the bowls in heaven containing the prayers of the saints being poured out. We are now living in the greatest time of power evangelism! We need to pray as the body of Christ and as intercessors for the Lord to send forth laborers into the fields.
Painted after Azusa Now in Los Angeles
A dome represents a dwelling or habitation of the Lord. The Lord is strengthening our foundations and our pillars (wisdom). The structure must have integrity. The golden eagle on the top of the dome is the pure prophetic, keen spiritual vision, soaring in the Spirit and waiting on the Lord for direction. The intercession and worship is releasing the Light in the state. As you gather together in worship and prayer, the integrity of the structure is strengthened. The River of God is a move of God, a release and continuous outpouring of the Holy Spirit, and is giving the Church the ability to move freely with the Holy Spirit. There are 12 rain drops for the establishment of God's government.
Your worship and intercession is causing a "iron dome" in the spirit realm and releasing the purifying fire of the Lord.
"So then you are no longer strangers and aliens (Mississippi), but you are fellow citizens with the saints, and are of God's household, having been built on the foundations of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Himself being the cornerstone, in whom the whole building, being fitted together, is growing into a holy temple in the Lord, in whom you (Mississippi) are being built together into a dwelling of God in the Spirit." Eph 2:19-22

The Lord is taking us to a place where we fully trust Him. No matter what the circumstances in life, fully surrender and full trust Him. He is a good Daddy and He is One who can be trusted. He wants us to lean not on our own understanding and step out of the boat and walk upon the water with Him. Don’t look at the waves crashing around you; keep your eyes up towards Him. That is where the glory is. His guiding hand is right there with us. He will not let us sink. He wants it all.

Lead me to that secret place. Take me into Your chamber where You and I can meet face to face. I want to abide in You. I want to burn for You. Consume all of me, Lord.
In that place of intimacy with God is where the anointing comes and we gain the oil for our lamps to burn.
In the face of the storms we can remain in perfect peace hidden in the shadow of His wing. He is our safe place and our strong tower. He is our refuge from the storm. Though can see the enemy and see the waves we are seated at rest in heavenly place IN HIM.

The Throne and Worship of the Creator
5 Out from the throne come flashes of lightning and sounds and peals of thunder. And there were seven lamps of fire burning before the throne, which are the seven Spirits of God; 6 and before the throne there was something like a sea of glass, like crystal; and in the [c]center and around the throne, four living creatures full of eyes in front and behind. 7 The first creature was like a lion, and the second creature like a calf, and the third creature had a face like that of a man, and the fourth creature was like a flying eagle. 8 And the four living creatures, each one of them having six wings, are full of eyes around and within; and day and night [d]they do not cease to say,
“Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God, the Almighty, who was and who is and who [e]is to come.”
9 And when the living creatures give glory and honor and thanks to Him who sits on the throne, to Him who lives forever and ever, 10 the twenty-four elders will fall down before Him who sits on the throne, and will worship Him who lives forever and ever, and will cast their crowns before the throne, saying,
11 “Worthy are You, our Lord and our God, to receive glory and honor and power; for You created all things, and because of Your will they [f]existed, and were created.”
“The voice of the Lord is upon the waters; the God of glory thunders, the Lord is over many waters. The voice of the Lord is powerful. The voice of the Lord is majestic. The voice of the Lord breaks in pieces the cedars of Lebanon. The voice of the Lord shakes the wilderness. The voice of the Lord makes the deer to calve and strips the forests bare; and in His temple everything says, ‘GLORY!’” Ps. 29:3-9
“More than the sound of many waters, than the mighty breakers of the sea, the Lord on high is mighty.” Ps. 93:4
You have been set apart, chosen and devoted to God for His purposes. The Lord kept saying “War Horse”. Immediately, I thought of the movie “War Horse” which is full of courage, bravery, and endurance. The Lord also told me that you have a heart like David. Like you, David was a worshipper and a warrior. At a young age he had to endure many trials and troubles. And yet through each obstacle or wall he faced, he overcame. Every battle that he faced, he was victorious. And after facing each one he gained wisdom and authority. He was a worshipper and loved the Lord’s presence. He was humble and quick to repent because he never wanted anything to come between him and God. The bible says that David was a “friend of God”. That is also what the Lord says about you. Even as a youth, you walk and talk to God like a friend.
In the painting, you are the horse. Horses represent power and authority. The horse is leaping over the wall, just like you will leap gracefully over every obstacle you face. The horse is carrying the harp of David for worship and the slingshot for the giants you will overcome. The colors in the sky are the traits you carry. Yellow is for joy and hope. Orange is the color of perseverance and strength. Red is anointing and conquered land. Purple is for royalty and authority.
You are leaders in the Lord’s army and you are victorious. You are visionaries and can see the big picture. The Lord has even empowered you understand the strategies needed to advance the Church forward. “For he looked for a city which has foundations, whose architect and builder is God.” (Heb. 11:10) You are builders and are bridge makers. “Unless the Lord builds the house, the builders labor in vain.” (Psalm 127:1) You are servant leaders and are yielded to the Holy Spirit and stand on this foundation. I see you breaking hard ground, digging new wells, redigging ancient wells of revival and laying stones that will host the move of the Spirit. The stones represent the apostolic gifting, building, covenant, and laying foundations. The River is the Holy Spirit, cleansing, refreshing, teaching, and the prophetic anointing. There are Rivers of the Spirit and rivers of wealth flowing out of the wells reaching far places and even touching all the mountains of society. Anointed worship will be released where the Father is worshiped in Spirit and Truth and the people will be refreshed with the Living Water. Where the wells are dug, the land will be healed and revived with life.
When Jesus told His disciples, “Let’s go over to the other side of the Lake.” He was telling them His desire and intentions for them. When God tells us to do something, He desires and intends on us completing it. He is already speaking from the place of knowing we can accomplish it. The disciples become fearful when the winds and waves were overwhelming them. The Lord rebuked them for not having faith in what He TOLD them they were to do. They allow the circumstances to bring doubt and fear instead of resting on His words. After the Lord spoke to the wind and the waves and calmed the storm, their fear shifted from fear of the situation to the fear of the Lord (recognizing His authority and power). Jesus wants us to rest WITH Him in the midst of our circumstances. He longs for us to totally surrender and fully trust Him and crawl up and rest beside Him.

Rev. 5:2-5
Rev. 4:8
"There have been many roads that have been made, but I say there is only ONE road. Rebuild the road of holiness in this nation! Strike the ground with the sword (worship, decrees, and declarations). I will release My seven spirits in the earth as rivers that spring forth in the desert. The scroll for this nation has been written! Use the key of David to unlock that which has been held back up until this time! I have been waiting for such a time as this!"

"Beat your plowshares into swords and your pruning hooks into spears. Train even your weaklings to be warriors...Now let the sickle do its work, for the harvest is ripe. Thousands upon thousands are waiting in the valley of decision."
Joel 2:28-30, 3:10-14
I heard the Lord say "winnowing fork"...It is time we repent and cast off those things that are hindering our growth and allow Jesus to separate the wheat from the chaff in our lives so that good fruit can be produced. The Wind of God will blow away the corruptible and non fruit producing things in our lives and His fire will burn those things away...then times of refreshing will come and the rain of His presence will water us to produce more fruit.
Caleb was a courageous warrior who did not give up on the promise. He knew God was with him and God would do what He said He would do.

Is. 40 " Listen! I hear the voice of someone shouting, 'Make a highway for the Lord through the wilderness. Make a straight, smooth path through the desert for our God'...the glory of the Lord will be revealed, and all the people will see it together. Yes, the sovereign Lord is coming in all His glorious power!"
America's 10/40 window (Interstate 10 and Interstate 40) is Isaiah 40:10. "The Presence Belt"
The Lord is making a highway across this nation, a highway of His presence and His glory. A nation on fire for God!
The painting depicts God’s heart for the Great State of Mississippi. In the past, Mississippi has been known for being the “last” in many areas. But God said, “The last shall be first and the first shall be last”.
I see the Mississippi River like a tree. The tree over Mississippi is an oak tree, for Mississippi is an “oak of righteousness”. This tree has many acorns. The acorns are the seeds of multiplication that will be reproducing many forests of “oaks” leaving a legacy for future generations. The leaves are healing that will be produced and released to the nation(s).
The 9 stalks of wheat coming out of Mississippi are the fruitful harvest. The 2 larger stalks off to the side make 11 for the transition and change of our state.
The state is highlighted in white flames for the purifying fire of love God is releasing. Mississippi will be burning with an awakening revival.
He is the “Father of lights”. There are 12 lights for the establishment of God’s government in Mississippi. The lights are in a circle for the unity of the Body of Christ coming together as one. Our lights individually are bright, but together we illuminate the entire state and the darkness will flee. The lights are also in the form of a clock, because it is God’s “time for Mississippi”.
The state is green with life, health, healing, and prosperity coming for Mississippi.
"So there is a great and mighty people; there has never been anything like it, nor will there be again after it to the years of many generations. A fire consumes before them and behind them a flame burns. Their appearance of horses; and like war horses, so they run. With a noise as of chariots they leap on the tops of the mountains, like the crackling of a flame of fire consuming the stubble, like a mighty people arranged for battle. They run like mighty men, they climb the wall like soldiers; and they each march in line, nor do they deviate from their paths. They do not crowd each other, they march everyone in his path; when they burst through the defenses, they do not break ranks..."
(Painted at Hope Fellowship Church Brandon, MS)
It is time! A tipping point has been created! The scales are tipping and rivers are pouring. The scales are in the tree because the scales are in our hands. the sword is in front of the tree for we must contend for the ground we are taking. The leaves released of the tree are the decrees, declarations, and prayers of the saints.
I see the Mississippi River like a tree in the center of the United States. The leaves are being released by the Wind of the Spirit and are being carried out. The Lord wants to release a mighty move of God that will affect the whole nation. There are 12 stars for God's government being established in our nation. I hear the Lord say, "The Eagle WILL soar!" speaking of the United States once again flying high as a banner in the earth.

Don’t get tired of doing what is good. Don’t get discouraged and give up, for you will reap a harvest of blessing at the appropriate time. Gal. 6:9
