LETTING GO OF THE OLD FOR THE NEW; MOVE COVERTLY

I feel such a stirring in my spirit to share this.

The old way of doing things will not work this time around. For what God is doing is new, do you not perceive it (Isaiah 43:19)? We must be intentional on seeking the face of God on how we are to move forward with the things He has given us. What many are planning to do and are doing in this hour is the old way. It's the traditional way. It's the old wine skin. These things have been done a million times over with little to no effect. Here me, you can not pour new wine into old wineskin (Mark 2:22). There is a new way of doing things, and it will require a new mindset to get it done. The way we intercede, why we intercede, and where we choose to intercede MUST CHANGE IF WE ARE NOT SEEKING GOD FIRST, AND DO NOT HAVE HIS HEART. As I'm typing this, I keep hearing the word COVERT. Covert means not openly acknowledged or displayed. It's means a secret, stealthily, hidden, undercover, private, and underground, according to Oxford Languages. Many of you are out in the open with assignments that should be underground assignments. Not on full display for the world to see. If we truly understood the magnitude of our assignment and the Father's heart for the assignment, we would change how we move. I truly believe there needs to be a circumcision of the hearts in this hour so that our hearts can align with God's (Deuteronomy 30:6). I had a dream last year where I was told that every assignment I go on is like stepping into a graveyard. It's dangerous. I understood coming out of this dream I'm not to take any assignments lightly, and it would be detrimental to me not to seek guidance from the Holy Spirit through the entire mission. (Isaiah 11:2, Psalm 32:8, Proverbs 2:6, Proverbs 12:15) We need to ask the Holy Spirit questions before doing anything. Who goes, Father, and who dont? Is it to be done the same way, and if not, how do I move forward? What's the target? What is the location of the assignment? What's the strategy to get the job done? (Proverbs 15:22) I remember being woke up out of my sleep one night by an angel. The only thing he said was, Gideon. I knew by the Spirit I was to study Gideon. A year or so later, I would find out why. The Lord was preparing me ahead of time for an assignment that seemed impossible to achieve, but to know the Father was sending me help and it would not be many. It doesn't take many to get the job done when the kingdom of heaven is backing you and the Father has chosen those to stand with you. (Judges 6-8) We must stop assuming the Father wants us in the constraints of the four walls of our church buildings, all the while the enemy is wrecking havoc outside the four walls. There are places the Holy Spirit will lead you to in your cities where altars have been built to satan and his demons (Isaiah 30:21). Those altars must be torn down, and the Father's altar must be built for real change (Jeremiah 1:10). Before you see anything take place in the natural, it must first take place in the spirit. You must be lethal to the enemies camp in the spirit. You must be a sniper in the spirit. A sniper is not seeking to be seen, but he is one who positions himself to not miss. I had another dream where, in the end, I heard the word stealth. I can not go into detail about this dream, but from what the Lord revealed to me in the dream, I'm to move in an unseen way. There is protection in obedience. The Lord will not hand you over into the hands of you enemy. Hear and obey. (Psalm 31:8) It's extremely important that we are not doing the work of God to be seen by man and that our hearts and wills align with the Father (Matthew 6:1). He gets the glory. It's not about how well you prophesy and pray to be seen by man. It's about your obedience to well execute an assignment as a sniper sent by God. Can you move in a covert way to hit the target without the enemy seeing you? The Father is calling for intentionality with innovation. Things that have not been done before. The only way to do this is not by looking at what someone else is doing and choosing to automatically assume that's how you are to do things, but it's to hear for innovative ways from heaven to execute the vision the Father has given you. If it's a God vision, then it's bigger than you, and you're going to need strategy and blueprints from heaven to get it done. (Proverbs 3:5-6, James 1:5) Who you bring into this next season with you matters. Be sober alert and seek the face of God (1 Peter 5:8). Everyone cannot go with you. Taking the wrong people can result in mission fail, distractions, and confusion (Hebrews 12:1-2). You must stay focused on what you are building and assigned to.
