As I have leaned into the Lord to seek His heart concerning this, I had an encounter with the Lord where I saw the Lion of Judah positioned over the United States. He was HUGE.

"United States of America - The Lion of Judah is Stepping in and Breaking Delays!"

Lana Vawser, Brisbane, Australia

The Roar of the Lion of Judah

Over the past few days I have been feeling a sense of urgency over the United States, and an excitement in my spirit that the King of Glory is stepping in (as I released in a previous word). As I have leaned into the Lord to seek His heart concerning this, I had an encounter with the Lord where I saw the Lion of Judah positioned over the United States. He was HUGE. With each one of His paws placed on the four corners of the United States, He was covering the entire nation.

As He was positioned over the nation, He opened His mouth and out came a LOUD roar. It was a roar of Joel 3:16: "The Lord will roar from Zion and thunder from Jerusalem; the earth and the heavens will tremble. But the Lord will be a refuge for His people, a stronghold for the people of Israel."

"United States, accelerate further into your new day!"

It was the ROAR of God releasing the FEAR of God across the nation. It was the roar of His authority that decreed: "NOTHING can stand against My power and who I am."

As this roar of the Lion of Judah was released I saw John 3:16 exploding all around declaring, "For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life."

His roar was being released, demonstrating His power and His authority; but the roar of His heart was releasing the sound of the Gospel louder than before. This was happening so that the world would know His great love and His power and a greater unlocking to prepare the nation for a MIGHTY HARVEST of souls.

Swing Wide Ancient Gates!

As I heard the Lord roar loudly, I could also hear the LAUGH of God. It was so loud it shook EVERYTHING. Nothing could stand against the roar and laugh of God. Instantly, I heard the verse declared in the spirit from Psalm 2:4: "He who sits in the heavens laughs..."

As soon as I heard this Scripture the Lord spoke to me:

"Psalm 2:4 and Psalm 24:7-9 are keys right now for the United States. NOTHING will stand against My plans and what I am decreeing and establishing within the United States. I am releasing My laugh of VICTORY over the nation. I am stepping in! I am stepping in! Decree it with Me: The King of Glory is stepping in! I am the One who will have the last laugh, for nothing stands against My plans and purposes! I am Yahweh." (Photo via Wikimedia)

I then heard the Lord roar loudly again, and this time as He roared, I heard the declaration being made in the spirit: "All delays broken! All delays broken, NOW. I decree: ACCELERATE!"

As the Lord roared over the nation, I watched as His power and justice flowed from His mouth. All delays that were attempting to hinder the mighty extension of His Kingdom and plans were suddenly falling. They were suddenly crumbling. They were suddenly coming to nothing.

He spoke again: "Where there has been a battle of delay, in some ways, I now declare: United States, accelerate further into your new day! United States, accelerate further into your new day!"

I could feel it in the atmosphere: the joyful expectation of the power of God being demonstrated in such significant ways across the nation...BREAKING DELAY!

There's a Breaking Open of the Wells – Releasing Fire and Water!

As the Lord was roaring over the nation I could hear the loud sound of intercession from the saints, flowing with His ROAR. I heard Him say:

"His roar was being released, demonstrating His power and His authority; but the roar of His heart was releasing the sound of the Gospel louder than before."

"Many have heard My ROAR. Many have heard the rhythm of My roar and are interceding what My heart is decreeing. It is changing a nation from the inside out. It is changing the nation from the inside out."

I watched as hard ground was suddenly being broken open by His roar. In the "breaking open," hidden things were being exposed in greater ways and the victory and justice of the Lord was being released. There was a mighty move of the Spirit of God breaking chains of the "hidden things" that have been rooted for so long.

These chains in the hidden things had attempted to cause delay in the United States, but were now suddenly breaking, and I watched as wells were opening up. These wells were breaking open; but the thing that struck me was this: out of the wells exploded FIRE and WATER!

The Lord spoke again: "IT'S TIME FOR FIRE AND WATER! It's time for the fire of My presence, My love, My purification, My revival and the waters of My Spirit to cleanse and flood the nation. It's time for the fire and the water! The time has arrived! The United States will be marked by fire and water! There's a new day of divine marking and commissioning upon the United States."

A New Day of Commissioning

The Lord showed me that there is a new day of commissioning upon the United States. There is another threshold that is about to be crossed over, and that is why the Lord is brooding heavily upon His people right now to intercede and to partner with Him to see the birthing of that which He has decreed.

This new day of commissioning upon the United States is about to burst forth and in this new commissioning I saw a MIGHTY decree being stamped upon the nation: "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA! THE NATION THAT CARRIES THE JUSTICE OF THE LORD!"

The Lord then spoke to me again: "There shall be MIGHTY demonstrations of My divine justice upon the nation like never before. The roar of My justice that is being released over the nation, is not only breaking delay but it is releasing divine impartations of My justice into the land by My spoken Word. It is going to be carried in the nation and released into other nations by the decree of My people.

"Many words have been spoken in and over the nation that have decreed injustice. Where words have been used to release injustice, I am now decreeing that the United States of America shall be known as a nation of MY justice as My people continue to rise up, grab hold of what I am saying and decree it. There is a MIGHTY birthing of My justice taking place and it will not be stopped. It will not be hindered. The roar of My justice is being released and the world will hear it! The sound of My justice being released will RESOUND! (Photo via Unsplash)

"As My people seek My heart, hear My voice and align with My roar of justice that is going to be mightily demonstrated, there shall be a tidal wave of My justice that will flow INTO and FROM the nation!"

"As My Roar of Justice is Released There Will Be a Greater Acceleration of Restoration"

As I continued to watch the Lord roaring over the nation I heard the Him say: "There shall be NO MORE delay in greater breakthroughs of restoration! As My roar of justice is released there will be a greater acceleration of restoration.

"I am drawing lines in the sand over the United States and I am decreeing: NO MORE! I am breathing acceleration in the restoration that I have decreed over the United States of America."

As the Lord decree this, I heard the Chris Tomlin song "Our God" in the spirit, being sung all across the nation by the people of God. It was being sung almost as a "song of the season" over the USA. It was a LOUD victory cry. The time for a greater demonstration of the triumph of God has arrived. In greater demonstrations of His power and outstretched arm there shall be a MIGHTY TURNAROUND! I encourage you to listen to the song and read the lyrics to agree with the Father what He is declaring over the USA! (To Subscribe to the Elijah List subscribe here.)

What the enemy has stolen, what he has broken, what he has touched and what he has messed with, is about to be met with the fierce justice and recompense of God.

"Fierce Recompense of the Lord is Coming!"

Lana Vawser, Brisbane, Australia

Last year in August, the Lord gave me a prophetic word about the fierce repayment of the Lord for the ferocious battle that many had been facing, which He has begun releasing. This week, I had a dream where the Lord reminded me of this word. Over and over again throughout the dream, I heard the Lord saying, "FIERCE RECOMPENSE." It was a strong declaration of the justice of God coming to the saints in greater increase.

Recompense

"Things are not only turning around, the justice and recompense of God is about to RESOUND."

"Recompense" is defined as: "To make amends, compensation or reward given for loss or harm suffered or effort made." Its synonyms are: compensate, indemnify, repay, reimburse, pay money to, make reparation to, make restitution to.

"Say to those who have an anxious heart, 'Be strong; fear not! Behold, your God will come with vengeance, with the recompense of God. He will come and save you.'" (Isaiah 35:4 ESV)

The Lord has been building a strong conviction in me as I have sat on this dream for a number of days. This is a prophetic declaration to encourage the saints of God. The Lord has already been restoring and He has already been repaying in this season, but take heart! You are about to see the RECOMPENSE of the Lord get FIERCE.

The justice of God is about to be displayed in a FIERCE way in your life. What the enemy has stolen, what he has broken, what he has touched and what he has messed with, is about to be met with the fierce justice and recompense of God. The recompense of God is going to come in such a stunningly supernatural, miraculous way, that it is going to be a clear and loud testimony of the power of God. (Photo via Unsplash)

By the divine repayment of His hand, you are about to see the INCREASE of God upon the areas the enemy has come against you over and over. In this season of radical increase, I have been prophesying that the areas where the enemy has killed, stolen and destroyed, you will come out with more than before!It may not "look" the same, but the Lord is bringing recompense and increase.

Recompense from Unexpected Places Breaking Forth Rivers of Joy

For many, the recompense of God is flowing and will continue to flow from UNEXPECTED places. These unexpected breakthroughs, releasing the recompense of God, are going to break forth RIVERS OF JOY to you that are going to refresh and strengthen you.

The fierce repayment of God is going to be such a glorious demonstration of power beyond displaying His nature, His goodness and His love. The power of God is bringing recompense and repayment into your life, which is going to FAR OUTWEIGH how the enemy has come against you.

The Roar of God is Releasing His Resurrection Power and Recompense

The Lion of Judah is truly roaring. In my times with the Lord this week, I keep coming across verses on the "vengeance" of God. God is about to demonstrate Himself as your warrior, as the avenger, as the God of justice and retribution in greater ways. The Lion of Judah is roaring His victory over you and the enemy is being reminded again of his defeat.

"Beloved, don't be obsessed with taking revenge, but leave that to God's righteous justice. For the Scriptures say: 'If you do not take justice in your own hands, I will release justice for you,' says the Lord." (Romans 12:19 The Passion Translation)

"It was a strong declaration of the justice of God coming to the saints in greater increase."

"God has a constantly flowing river whose sparkling streams bring joy and delight to His people. His river flows right through the city of God Most High, into His holy dwelling places. God is in the midst of His city, secure and never shaken. At daybreak His help will be seen with the appearing of the dawn. When the nations are in uproar with their tottering kingdoms, God simply raises His voice and the earth begins to disintegrate before Him. Here He comes! The Commander! The mighty Lord of Angel Armies is on our side. The God of Jacob fights for us! Everyone look! Come and see the breathtaking wonders of our God. For He brings both ruin and revival. He's the one who makes conflicts end throughout the earth, breaking and burning every weapon of war. Surrender your anxiety! Be silent and stop your striving and you will see that I am God. I am the God above all the nations, and I will be exalted throughout the whole earth. Here He stands! The Commander! The mighty Lord of Angel Armies is on our side! The God of Jacob fights for us!" (Psalm 46:4-11The Passion Translation)

The Fierce Recompense and Justice of God Will Leave You Face Down in Worship

I prophesy in Jesus' name that you will be left face down in worship. You will experience a whole new level of awe and wonder of our beautiful Jesus, our King of kings and Lord of lords, as you see the mighty demonstration of His fierce recompense and justice exploding upon your life. (Photo via Unsplash)

Things are not only turning around, the justice and recompense of God is about to RESOUND. The landscape is about to completely change to one of great REPAYMENT, RECOMPENSE and RESTORATION!

The repayment, recompense and restoration of God is about to RAIN in increase, demonstrating powerfully that OUR GOD REIGNS!

"Be glad, O children of Zion, and rejoice in the LORD your God, for He has given the early rain for your vindication; He has poured down for you abundant rain, the early and the latter rain, as before." (Joel 2:23 ESV) (To Subscribe to the Elijah List subscribe here.)

Lana Vawser: "The Lion of Judah is Stepping into California" - The Elijah List

Lana Vawser: "The Lion of Judah is Stepping into California"

The Elijah List Apr 26, 2018

From the desk of Steve Shultz:

We've received many words over the years of God's plans over California...but lately more have been coming in. God is on the move and is up to big things over this state!

California is an epicenter for mega mountains including entertainment/arts and media.

We could talk about all the "negative" that comes from California...but it takes knowing the heart of God and seeing His plans, so that we can agree in prayer for revival to hit this God-blessed state.

Lana Vawser had a powerful encounter with the Lord and received these words:

"The Lion of Judah is stepping in and He is about to ROAR and things are going to shake. Things are about to shake. Things are about to be rattled. Things are about to be toppled and rolled. It's time for the ROAR of the Lion of Judah to be heard across the state. It is time for the ROAR of heavenly justice, vindication and preparation to take place. Make way! The King of glory is coming! The whole state will be covered in the glory of God! No longer pockets of His glory, but WAVES of His glory!"

Whether you live there or not...there is much released from this state that impacts the world. Let's be praying for a mighty move of God to take place! (To Subscribe to the Elijah List subscribe here.)

"The Lion of Judah is Stepping into California"

Lana Vawser, Brisbane, Australia

The Lord has been speaking to me about California over the past few weeks and highlighting the need for increased intercession and declaration of the Word of God and His plans and purposes for them. As I sat with the Lord recently, I had a vision and saw the Lion of Judah stepping into California. As He approached the center of the state, He stepped in with a LOUD ROAR.

A prophetic utterance then bubbled up within me:

"It was the shaking of the Glory King stepping in and the fear of God was spreading throughout California – a mighty move of His Spirit to release awe and wonder of who He is."

"California, He is coming! California, He is about to step in like you have never seen before! California, He is coming! Prepare the way of the Lord! For He has heard the sound of intercession. He has heard the sound of the redeemed in the land. He has heard the cries of the watchman on the wall and He is coming!

"The Lion of Judah is stepping in and He is about to ROAR and things are going to shake. Things are about to shake. Things are about to be rattled. Things are about to be toppled and rolled. It's time for the ROAR of the Lion of Judah to be heard across the state. It is time for the ROAR of heavenly justice, vindication and preparation to take place. Make way! The King of glory is coming! The whole state will be covered in the glory of God! No longer pockets of His glory, but WAVES of His glory!

"Thick darkness may surround, deep darkness may fill the place, but it is time for the glory of the Lord to rise. The enemy has attempted to hinder the birthing. The enemy has attempted to miscarry what the Lord is doing, but the triumph of God will be seen in the glory of the Lord being revealed. The Lord is coming to show Himself strong! He is coming to release His roar! He is coming to release a sound that has not been heard in California before. Armies upon armies of angels are being sent to you, California. Where the enemy has been decreeing death in many forms, the Lord is coming to release His life in abundance. Continue to prepare the way, continue to prepare the way for the King of glory to step in."

There's a New Song Bursting Forth from California

I heard the Lord say: "There is a new song bursting forth from California. There is a new song of the Lord bursting forth. It is the sound and song of victory! It is the sound and song of how I will show Myself strong! Lift up your praises and sing My people. Lift up your praises and sing over the state. Sing forth the songs of victory! Sing forth the songs of victory to usher in a great birthing in California. A birthing and manifestation of Isaiah 60:1-3. A birthing of My glory and My power being seen like never before."

"'Arise, shine; for your light has come,
And the glory of the Lord has risen upon you.
For behold, darkness will cover the earth
And deep darkness the peoples;
But the Lord will rise upon you
And His glory will appear upon you.
Nations will come to your light,
And kings to the brightness of your rising.'

"As My people praise, My gavel is coming down! There has been a great delay that has been over California. There has been a significant battle over California like that in Daniel 10, but I decree over California now that as My people praise, as My people continue to sing My decrees and promises over her, there is breakthrough taking place. There is breakthrough beginning to rise and there will be physical manifestations of My power being released as the gavel comes down.

"Watch and see My decree INCREASE. Watch and see the FRUIT of My decrees of INCREASE. For in the shaking, in the rattling, in the toppling and rolling, I am increasing My presence. I am increasing My power. I am increasing My justice, I am increasing My glory. Don't look for the darkness, don't focus on the darkness but know that My light is increasing. Know that the greatest outpouring of My glory and My power is gaining momentum and is going to be revealed in unexpected, glorious, significant ways. (Photo via Unsplash)

"Oh the joy that will fill the hearts of My people as I show up! A refreshing is coming to My people in the breakthrough! Many have contended, many have interceded, many have stood on the wall for so long for the state of California, and I have heard the prayers and cries of the saints. Watchman on the wall, continue to contend, continue to intercede, continue to sing and KNOW that the RAIN is beginning to fall. My rain is beginning to fall. I have stationed My angels in California ready to herald the tipping point."

I then had a vision where I saw angels, so many angels, standing all around the perimeter of California and they were holding HUGE buckets and bowls. They were waiting on the command and decree of the Lord, and then they began to release the bowls. I heard them in unison singing, "Tipping point, tipping point, there is great tipping point being released."

Suddenly, I saw a great outpouring spreading all throughout California. The wave of His Spirit and His presence was spreading all throughout the state. As it was flowing I heard Psalm 24:8-10 from the Passion Translation, "You ask, 'Who is this Glory-King?' The Lord, armed and ready for battle, the Mighty One, invincible in every way! So wake up, you living gateways, and rejoice! Fling wide, you ageless doors of destiny! Here He comes; the King of glory is ready to come in. You ask, 'Who is this King of glory?' He is the Lord of victory, armed and ready for battle, the Mighty One, the invincible commander of Heaven's hosts! Yes, He is the King of glory!"

The Lord has been releasing this Scripture over so many places, cities and nations in this season, because He is about to step in as the King of glory with the breaker anointing – as the Mighty Warrior – to show forth His power and see His Kingdom extended in gloriously significant ways amidst the darkness that surrounds.

"There is a new song of the Lord bursting forth. It is the sound and song of victory!"

As I saw the wave of His Spirit flowing like water across the state, I saw the water turn to blood and I heard the words, "It is the power of My Blood. It's the power of My Blood to overcome! The power of My Blood to see My people overcome!" The sense surrounded me of all the prayer, intercession and standing in the gap in repentance for California that has taken place and continues to take place.

California is Going to Shake with the Fear of God

As Jesus stepped in, in this vision, I saw the state of California beginning to shake. There was no part of the state that was left unshaken. It was the shaking of the glory King stepping in, and the fear of God was spreading throughout California – a mighty move of His Spirit to release awe and wonder of who He is. He is the Mighty Warrior (Exodus 15:3), the King of glory (Psalm 24:8-10), the Lord mighty and strong in battle (Psalm 147:5), the Lion of Judah. As He roared, as He decreed, His kindness spread far and wide. His love spread far and wide. The atmosphere was full of declaration that the Lord does whatever He pleases (Psalm 115:3), and He demonstrated the glorious revelation of His kindness that brings repentance (Romans 2:4).

I then heard Him wanting to encourage His people in California: "There is hope! There is reason to hope! There is reason to sing! There is reason to dream! There is reason to rejoice, for I am moving powerfully and the tidal wave of My glory is about to significantly increase. Look not around you, or be distracted by the darkness, but look to Me and know that the wave of My glory is going to shake California, releasing awe and wonder of who I am. The enemy is speaking death over California, but I am speaking HARVEST! Continue to decree! Don't leave the wall! Continue to prepare for the increase! Prepare for the increase!"

I Am Ringing the Bells Over California. Agree with Me!

I had a dream last year where I heard the sound of bells ringing. I was then taken in the dream to a place where there were HUGE bells and I knew that these were LIBERTY BELLS. The Lord spoke to me in the dream that it was not the end of a season, but the end of an era, and then I woke up. When the presence of God came upon me to write this word for California I heard the words: "I am ringing the bells over California, agree with Me! I am ringing the bells over California."

The same sense from the dream surrounded me, the heralding of the end of an era, and the beginning of a new era.

I heard Him speak again: "The battle is so fierce in California because of the new era upon her! The new era of harvest! The new era of My glory! The new era of My army rising up, awakening like never before. The warriors of light are taking their place in greater ways, walking in the footsteps of those who have gone before and prepared the way, decreeing My Word with a conviction and boldness in their hearts that says to the plans of the enemy, 'Not on my watch!' It is a new era of seeing the power of My Word demonstrated. The power of My voice resound. It is a new era in California of seeing My Word come down LIKE A HAMMER!" (Photo via Unsplash)

"Is not My Word like fire?" declares the LORD, "and like a hammer which shatters a rock?" (Jeremiah 23:29 NASB)

"Get ready to see My Word come down like a hammer and shatter! Get ready to see the power of My Word demonstrated. Get ready to see how My Word does not return void to Me (Isaiah 55:11). Get ready to see a greater unfolding of this new era of the power of My Word demonstrated."

The sense surrounded me so profoundly, for the call from the heart of God to His people – to dig deeper into the Word, to continue to ask for His heart for California and His eyes to see what He is seeing. Let's decree the Word of God that brings a turning, that speaks hope, restoration, and the plans and purposes of God into California. The kindness and love of God will be displayed. There is an increase of insight and vision He is wanting to release from His Word to His people to sow into the ground of California, as the state moves into a new era of harvest and glory revealed, for such a time as this!

Desperation - Now Think On This by Steve Martin

Desperation

Now Think On This

Steve Martin

“When I was desperate, I called out, and God got me out of a tight spot.” (Psalm 34:6, The Message)

The Merriam-Webster dictionary states that desperation is the “loss of hope and surrender to despair.” Loss of hope is a terrible thing. When there is no hope, not much else is left to cling to.

There will certainly come a time when many will reach a point where things get desperate, with no seemingly place to turn, people to call, or even a hopeless prayer to be said. Of course, having no belief in God, with many of these it is happening already.

Those who have no faith, whom have denied the factual proof of the Living God of Israel in their heart, head and history, trusting instead in their deceived mind, may never reach the point of salvation. Instead of giving up the pride that has exalted them to lofty human levels, they continue to lift their fists of anger and hatred to Him Who sits on the throne.

How ironic. They deny Him in every step of their being, and yet demonstrate their despite of the very Creator when something goes terribly wrong in their life, and those around them. Rather than call on the Name of the Lord, Who alone is salvation, they choose to continue down their path of destruction, heading further into the pit of darkness.

This need not be so.

All through Scripture we read where saints of old had to cry out to the Lord, desperate for Him to respond. David on the run from Saul; Job in the middle of his not-so-helpful friends; Paul while being stoned by the religious. Each were to experience those times of desperation, where no human answer was readily available to change the situation they had been brought to.

Yes, we are brought to situations where we have the choice - to call on the Lord and His salvation, or continue to deny His very presence, and reap the consequences that are promised to follow.

The Bible, that book which has remained accurately constant since the days it was put down on stone and paper, is our only hope. For anyone who seeks an answer, needs the truth, and is willing to repent of their own ways, it is THE ANSWER for all who will. For all who will call on the Name of the Lord.

“…that if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved; for with the heart a person believes, resulting in righteousness, and with the mouth he confesses, resulting in salvation.

For the Scripture says, "WHOEVER BELIEVES IN HIM WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED." For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek; for the same Lord is Lord of all, abounding in riches for all who call on Him; for "WHOEVER WILL CALL ON THE NAME OF THE LORD WILL BE SAVED." (Romans 10:9-13, NASU)

If you are reading this, I hope you have already trusted in the Lord Jesus, Yeshua HaMashiach, to deliver you from your sin and haughty ways. You thus know now that He who delivered you in the beginning will continue to deliver you to the end. He is faithful. He never changes.

For those who have yet to come to the realization point, where nothing else can or has changed your life, having tried all else, this is now the time where you need to make that decision, to call upon the name of the Lord Jesus, Savior of the World, and rest in His assurance that no matter what comes your way, He will be there to save you through it. He happened for those saints of old – He will happen for us too.

“Thus says the Lord, the Redeemer of Israel, their Holy One, to Him whom man despises, to Him whom the nation abhors,  to the Servant of rulers: "Kings shall see and arise, Princes also shall worship, because of the Lord who is faithful, the Holy One of Israel; and He has chosen You."

(Isaiah 49:7, NKJV)

The One whom the nations abhor, the Redeemer of Israel and those who come to Him, is the faithful One, the Solid Rock on which to stand.

As we see and hear of many in desperate situations, now is the time to stand on the solid rock of His Word, and see Him once again save His people in their time of need. May we also do our part in being His, the Body of Christ, His arm of hope and salvation, and show Him as the answer to those who need Him even more so now.

For those yet to come to the Messiah, the Lion and the Lamb of God, who has already come once and is soon coming again, my prayer is that you will know firmly in your heart that He will come and save you, for no other god or human can do as He alone can and will do for you.

Jesus, Jesus, Jesus. Yeshua, Yeshua, Yeshua. The only Name that saves.

Shalom and ahava (peace and love in Hebrew).
