Royal Robes For a Changing Season!

As I sat with the Lord in a quiet moment on my balcony, a butterfly startled me as it  hovered. Immediately, I heard one word: “Monarch.” Because I do not know my butterflies, I looked it up, and it was a monarch. One meaning ascribed to an encounter with one is that it symbolizes new beginnings and can signify stepping into a new phase of life. The Monarch is believed to have received its name because the gold rim looks like a royal crown, it is large and appears to rule a vast domain. As I was pondering this, I opened my journal at random to a prophetic word I had received in the past, a word I believe is for many right now. It said:

“…there is transformation coming. I saw the butterfly being squeezed out of the cocoon, and God said that a day of freedom and a day of being who you were created to be are coming to you. You are going to come into a new level of assertiveness and boldness. The Lord says I am going to raise you to high levels of governmental authority in the Kingdom, an Apostolic call that will open doors for many others, taking people into their destinies.”

 I then sensed from the Lord that in September would be preparation for change—change in the nations and in our lives. He pointed out that the leaves on trees change colour in the fall and become vibrant and said:

I am changing your colours to the vibrancy of the Tapestry I predetermined for you. I am now beautifying my Bride! Those who have served me in obedience will receive a new robe of many colours, like the one I gave to Joseph. Many of you are about to be taken before kings, carrying the Divine blueprints I have invested in you over the years. You are my investments for the future for the world that is crying out to Me. You are my storehouses, within whom I have stored the treasures of Heaven needed for the hour. Get washed, get ready! For you shall shine with the radiance of the One resident within you. You have passed through the valley of Baca and have received great strength to now do exploits that accomplish My Will.

As I said to Jeremiah, “Do not be afraid of their faces.” Do not fear what you think man can do to you; fear Me, the one who holds you in My hands and prepares your place in eternity. You will be given what to say as you choose to stand as an ambassador of the Kingdom. Confidence shall be your garments, as I uphold and constrain you in My Will.

I am God! I go before you and am your shield and fortress. You will hit the target—the bullseye—as My sharpshooters, penetrating deep into ancient strongholds with My Words in your mouth. The weight of the anointing on your gifting and your prophetic voice will now rise to new levels to accomplish My will for this hour.

The sound of your voice will carry prophetic power to pierce the prison walls that are holding My harvest captive. I am about to unlock those prison doors in this hour. Get ready for a great harvest in this season. The harvest has begun: the harvesting of what I have sown in the Earth and the harvest of what man has sown in the Earth.

Gird up your loins to run your race. Be prepared to run the gauntlet with a mindset of triumph and victory, as one who has trained well. Run to receive the promised prize. Put on your armour and march boldly into the battlefields of the world with fearless courage and fierce resolution.

Know that I have qualified you! I have prepared you to do My Will, and have made you well able to complete your assignment—to ride the wave called Destiny with the great skill and determination that I will give you. 

Fear not, my little flock, My faithful ones; it is the Father’s good pleasure to give you the Kingdom (Lk.12:32).
