There is a new wind blowing upon you for this next season that I am bringing you into. You have kept your heart before me and now you will see the reward of your faith. This is the opening of the door which no man can shut, and as you move toward the end of this year you will have much to celebrate and rejoice over, says the Lord. For, your work and your labor have not been in vain, and I am come to reward you in this time. There is a great work ahead to be done, and I will give you my strength, even the strength that comes from my presence to accomplish it. You shall have the tools needed and you shall receive wisdom, instruction, direction, and insight for the challenges ahead. You have not gone this way before, and you will depend wholly upon me for victory at every phase and at every level. Trust in the Lord and do good, and verily thou shall be fed, and so shall thou dwell in the land. This season is called restoration. It is called renewal and restitution.
For I have taken my pen and have written upon the tablets of heaven, and soon there will be a declaring of that thing which I have recorded in heaven trumpeted throughout the earth. And my name shall be exalted in the midst of my people. And that which has been established before me shall be released and brought to fruition within the boundaries of the time which I have set. So I say unto you, my sons and my daughters enlarge your vision and expand the boundaries of your request, for the tender plant has become a tree and the fledgling bird shall now soar and master the skies.
 
Your weapons shall be the weapons of prayer and worship, faith and obedience. And through your obedience shall my authority be manifested in you. And no man shall stand before you, for I will prepare the way and set in order the path before your feet shall step onto it. For, I am the living bread which comes from heaven, and I am the fresh manna that shall sustain you, by my Spirit. And so as you eat, you shall live; and those who believe shall receive breakthrough in their lives.

Prophetic Insights:
We are approaching some major shifting in this month of November. It is a month of release, a month of acquiring that which was lost or delayed. It is a time when there will be a balancing of the weights of justice in the sight of the Lord. God is about to balance the equation of things within the justice system. Within the justice of this world, God is about to execute His righteous judgments. The opposition to the Lord’s standard will not prevail but will be uncovered, exposed, and the present system will not be able to stand in the midst of the shaking political upheavals that are coming.
 
Proverbs 16:11 A just weight and balance are the Lord’s: all the weights of the bag are his work.
 
Proverbs 20:10 Divers weights are an abomination unto the Lord; and a false balance is not good.
 
The Lord says the Government Systems will be Shaken
I am saying that the governments’ systems and their current state of business have been found wanting, and I will uncover it and deal with it, says the Lord. So, even as you see signs and so-called glimpses of recovery and strength --- there is about to be a greater uncovering and an even greater breaking down in the systems of government. My people have suffered greatly, and the time for accountability has come. During this time, the restoration process shall begin for my people, and you will begin to see a release of the things that have been taken, stolen, and lost. And those who have been tested will know if they passed or failed their testing.
 
For, not only is this a time of assessment, but a time to deal with that which is false and to also strengthen and uphold that which is true. For, the two shall no longer stand together for the chaff will be separated from the wheat and carried away by the wind of my presence. Even that which has stood for evil (riding upon the high places) as exalted idols shall come down. As the statue of Dagon stood in front of the ark of God and fell upon it’s face, so shall the false idols fall. The people that trusted and even marveled at these images shall see and understand that the truth of God is raising a standard in the land for my righteousness sake.
 
The Lord is Purging His People
For I am removing the filthy garments from my people, even as I did with my servant Joshua, for I am causing the iniquity to pass from those who have cried out for change and have carried the shame of past mistakes. I will no longer allow the enemy to accuse and hinder you, for I am covering you with new raiment. You shall no longer feel unable, or incapable, or even inadequate. As you stand in your new raiment, you shall receive my peace, and your new orders, so that the mandate for kingdom advancement will come forth and you will find your true purposes, says the Lord. You shall go forth and gather my sons and daughters and bring them to me, and they shall be whole. For the restored shall restore others, the blessed shall bless others, and the healed shall heal others. Because I am restoring you back to the original place in which I first called you.        
  
The Lord’s Glory Shall Shower Down Upon the People
The glory of my spirit shall shower upon my people like never before, and they shall come into the place in which I am calling them and receive their instructions and obey their God. I will break down the walls and the barriers within the ranks of my people and bring forth a new breath, a new order, a new sound, even a new fresh wind. And my army will come forth and declare great truths, and freedom shall be upon them. The strategies of Kings shall be declared upon the wings of eagles. And a new company of my anointed shall come together to walk out what must be done in the land within these next four months.
 
I am moving and cross-pollinating my leadership with different giftings and callings and even within certain ranks to come together as one---not titles, not positions, but by relationships they shall come, by humbling they shall come, by love they shall come, and in giving of self they shall come. My sons and daughters shall come---there shall come a cry, and then there shall come a joy that will go up into the heavens like a song. In the midst, I shall remove the scars of the past. I shall piece together lives and hearts, so that my house will be a healed house of prayer for all nations.
 
Waves of Terrorism and the Army of God
The wave of terrorism that will sweep over both Europe and the United States will come to set fear in the hearts of those in government, so that the leadership will feel controlled and kept from exerting their authority. But I have prepared those who will cry out to the Heavens, and the army of God shall come forth. So get ready---prepare your hearts, my children---get ready---for the trump is blowing, and the alarm is sounding for the army of the Lord to come forth. The battleground is being prepared and the battle cry shall be echoed across the land, because the revival of the awakening has already begun.
 
I hear the gentle cries of intercession, and I want you to know that your prayers, your travail, is changing, shifting, and shaking the land. It is piercing the darkness and opening the heavens.

Jeremiah 29:13-14: “And ye shall seek me and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart. And I will be found of you, saith the Lord: and I will turn away your captivity, and I will gather you from all the nations, and from all the places whither I have driven you, saith the LORD; and I will bring you again  into the place whence I caused you to be carried away captive. “
 Everyone is familiar with Jeremiah 29:11. All of these words spoken by the prophet Jeremiah delivered God’s promise to restore the people of Israel after they come out of captivity. The Lord speaks from His heart to their heart - His love and commitment to them as well as their restoration.
 
I want to point out the 14th verse and share it with you in a spiritual light. The Lord says He will gather them. Allow me to speak this into your spirit today: The Lord says He’s gathering you. I want to talk to you about being gathered by the Lord. The Lord will collect you from the places where you had bad experiences and good experiences---and because all things work together for the good—these experiences whether they were bad or good are a part of us. We remember, we learn, but the Lord takes away the pain and allows us to look back as a testimony as to how He brought us out. The hows and the whys are revealed to us, so that the unresolved issues can be processed in us, and a “peaceful calm” becomes the balm to cover and heal our wounds.
 
In the Lord’s dealings with us----he helps us collect ourselves from the places that our lives have been scattered. Our struggles, our sacrifices, our levels of consecrations, our mistakes, our areas of weakness and our misunderstandings are gathered. Some were purged and others were purified in the fire of the Holy Spirit.
 
There are places, within those places that we are in now, that the Lord himself has driven us. (Reference the verse above.) These are places of freedom and deliverance, new places of understanding, places of conviction (so that we might reconcile our lives with him), and of course, places of His presence. Places of revelation, discipline, diligence, blessings, favor, and most of all new places in worship and praise, come forth like colors of a rainbow.
 
When we have been gathered, we gather others. Our gatherings become places that carry an atmosphere for healing those who haven’t experienced that kind of restoration before, and many are renewed and set free.
 
So let His promise this week lift you and encourage you to be personally strengthened. Allow Him to gather you and restore you. Allow Him to set in motion the meetings and new connections to others that will lead you into greater fullness and growth. Abide in the new place: the place of His restoration. The place where he catches a hold of you, so that you can get a hold of Him; and there you will find yourself pursuing, pressing, and following after the mark of the prize of the High Calling which is in Christ Jesus.
