THE TRUMPET
by Bill Burns
Hosea 8:1 Set the trumpet to your mouth!
SEPTEMBER 2023
September 24, 2023: Set things in order. Deal with unbelief, failures, disappointment, and discouragement. Receive all that I have promised, says the Lord. I am equipping and preparing you for the new season. Ephesians 6:10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might.
September 17, 2023: The anointing for this season is strength for victory, and will bring the power required for breakthrough and victory. This anointing will bring the joy of the Lord that will enable you to fight the good fight of faith so that victory is assured. Nehemiah 8:10 The joy of the Lord is your strength.
September 10, 2023: Realize that the enemy does not want you to receive the promises of God, and that he will keep you in his whirlwind as long as he can so that you are not ready to enter the new season. Rise up, fight, and win! 1 Corinthians 15:57 But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
September 3, 2023: Distractions will diminish your spiritual connection because you develop world focus instead of kingdom focus. Distractions cause worry rather than faith, and allow a spirit of fear to come in. Stay focused on things that have eternal value. Hebrews 12:1-2 Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
AUGUST 2023
August 27, 2023: Come to Me, and I will lead and guide you into My will. If you live in and by the power of your flesh you will not be able to see and know spiritually that which is taking place. But, if you begin to live by My Spirit, I will guide you into My purposes, says the Lord. Psalm 73:24 You will guide me with Your counsel, and afterward receive me to glory.
August 20, 2023: You are valuable to Me, says the Lord. Access the strength that I am making available to you to take the next step. Do not stop moving. Run and do not give up. Run with endurance, and activate your faith. Be confident, be bold, and fight the good fight of faith. Hebrews 12:1-2 Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
August 13, 2023: The prophetic word in this season will provide life, fresh manna that will guide, enlighten, and empower you. The wind of the Spirit is blowing, and the river of anointing will flow in this season to bring forth the word of truth. Psalm 147:15-18 He sends out His command to the earth; His word runs very swiftly. He gives snow like wool; He scatters the frost like ashes; He casts out His hail like morsels; Who can stand before His cold? He sends out His word and melts them; He causes His wind to blow, and the waters flow.
August 6, 2023: Believe in Me, for I am with you and for you. I will help you and empower you. The enemy will surely come against you, but greater is My Spirit within you, says the Lord. 1 John 4:4 You are of God, little children, and have overcome them, because He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world.
JULY 2023
July 30, 2023: I want you to know who you are in Me and that you are of great value. I want you to understand that you are still in the process of transition and that you are moving into a new season. The wind of My Spirit is removing the fog, the mist of defilement, and the rain is coming to wash you, anoint you, and prepare you to receive all that I have for you, says the Lord. Exodus 15:13 You in Your mercy had led forth the people whom You have redeemed; You have guided them in Your strength to Your holy habitation.
July 23, 2023: From now through the end of the year will be a time of promises fulfilled. You are entering a season of acceleration and new possibilities. I am repaying you now for all the good you have done for others. Luke 6:38 Give, and it will be given to you: good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over will be put into your bosom. For with the same measure that you use, it will be measured back to you.
July 16, 2023: Connect with Me, says the Lord, and I will lead and guide you. I will bring prosperity and healing into your life. Be one with Me so that you can be stronger than you ever have been before. Fight the good fight of faith and defeat the enemy as you go in My power and by the faith that I am energizing within you. Live in My presence and experience the great joy that will manifest in you. Proverbs 3:6 In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths.
July 9, 2023: Come and connect with Me. I will lead and guide you and bring prosperity and healing into your life. Be one with Me, and you can be stronger this year than you have ever been. Fight the good fight of faith, and you will be able to defeat the enemy in a renewed way. Learn to live in My presence, says the Lord. This is a season of opportunity for spiritual growth. Psalm 16:11 You will show me the path of life; in Your presence is fullness of joy; at Your right hand are pleasures forevermore.
July 2, 2023: I have come to set you free, but you must fight the good fight in faith. I will show you the enemy when he comes against you. As you begin to see him and his works, you can defeat him with supernatural power. Ephesians 6:10-12 Finally, My brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.
JUNE 2023
June 25, 2023: There is a river that flows from My throne to you. It is flowing into you now, in this moment, to strengthen you, to heal you, to bring My Presence to you. It comes as a spiritual rain from time to time. It falls upon you to strengthen you. It comes to anoint you. Ask for the rain in the season of the rain. Let the river come to you and refresh you. Let it anoint and heal you. Let it bring you forth into My purposes, and let there be an increase of it in these days, says the Lord God Almighty. Psalm 46:4 There is a river whose streams shall make glad the city of God, the holy place of the tabernacle of the Most High.
June 18, 2023: The higher trail is before you. Come with Me, and I will show you the way forward. Do not allow yourself to become stationary. Move with purpose in this timeframe. If you choose to come and follow Me, you will not be disappointed. My blessings will come to those who take this journey to the high place, says the Lord God Almighty. Psalm 37:5 Commit your way to the Lord, trust also in Him, and He shall bring it to pass.
June 11, 2023: This is a time to stay on the path you were given to follow. Keep yourself in the Holy Spirit so that you can gain the victory in all things. Do not stray or lose your way. Isaiah 58:11 The Lord will guide you continually, and satisfy your soul in drought, and strengthen your bones; you shall be like a watered garden, and like a spring of water, whose waters do not fail.
June 4, 2023: Come and walk with Me. Talk to Me, and I will answer. When darkness overshadows you, I will lead and guide you into My light. Do not become discouraged. You are of great value to Me! Psalm 18:1-3 I will love You, O Lord, my strength. The Lord is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer; My God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold. I will call upon the Lord, who is worthy to be praised; so shall I be saved from my enemies.
MAY 2023
May 28, 2023: If you will learn to live by faith you will be an overcomer! Do not give in to the devil and his lies. I am for you and will be with you. Only believe! As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten. Therefore be zealous and repent. Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with Me. To him who overcomes I will grant to sit with Me on My throne, as I also overcame and sat down with My Father on His throne.
May 21, 2023: The season before you will be filled with joy if you walk with Me. I will lead you into the fullness of My purposes if you stay connected. Come with Me, and I will protect you. Come with Me, and I will speak to you. Come with Me, and the journey of this season will be revealed. Isaiah 62:10 Go through, go through the gates! Prepare the way for the people; build up, build up the highway! Take out the stones, lift up a banner for the people!
May 14, 2023: I am for you and I am with you. Keep yourself in My love, and you will thrive. Walk with Me. Talk to Me, and you shall never be alone. The world will reject you, but I will not. Learn to live in the power of My love. John 15:9 As the Father loved Me, I also have loved you; abide in My love. May 7, 2023: Stay connected to Me as you move from season to season. Do not forget who I am and who you are. Include Me in your process of transition. If you do so, your life will be more productive, and it will define spiritual reality. Colossians 3:1-3 If then you were raised with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ is, sitting at the right hand of God. Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth. For you died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God.
APRIL 2023
April 30, 2023: Be an overcomer. Train yourself to resist temptation. If you maintain your life in the Spirit then the Holy Spirit will empower you to resist Satan and his temptations. 1 Peter 5:8-9 Be sober, be vigilant: because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. Resist him, steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same sufferings are experienced by your brotherhood in the world.
April 23, 2023: Focus on Me. Stay connected so that I might bring you into My purposes for this season. If you stay connected, you will grow in spiritual gifting and understanding. This is a time for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry. Ephesians 4:11-13 And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers, for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ, till we all come to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a perfect man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ.
April 16, 2023: I am for you, and I am with you to remind you of the season you are going through. Stay alert so that I might lead you and guide you along the way. I am the way. Come and follow Me. John 14:6 Jesus said to him: I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.
April 9, 2023: Allow Me to give you resurrection life, Spirit life! If you live in the flesh instead of the Spirit you will not have spiritual vision or understanding. Do not forget that these are the end times, a time in which you need to be led by Me. It is your choice. Choose life!
April 2, 2023: Arouse yourself. Be awakened to the season of opportunity that is before you. Come up higher. Come up to My mountain, says the Lord. It is a habitation in which you can be connected spiritually to the doors that are being opened to you. These are are doors of opportunity that wil make the way for you in the way of vision, the way of knowledge, the way of wisdom, the way of hearing and knowing by the Spirit. Come Up to My mountain!
MARCH 2023
March 26, 2023: You can live in victory, but you must apply yourself. By the word, apply, I mean that you must resist Satan’s attacks of temptation. If you do so, victory will come. Victory produces liberty. James 4:7 Therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you.
March 19, 2023: You belong to Me, and I have equipped you to live in victory. However, you must choose to live in victory. You must choose to fight the good fight of faith. I have designed you to be one who, by your faith, overcomes adversity. For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world, our faith.
March 12, 2023: If you will learn to trust Me in all things, then your faith will remain active. Active faith is required if your desire is to allow Me to work things out to your benefit. Therefore, do not allow discouragement to become a part of your behavior. Trust Me in all things. Romans 8:28 And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.
March 5, 2023: Discouragement will neutralize My word and My promises to you. Look into that which has allowed discouragement, and disagree with that thought process. Problems come to all of My children, but if you continue to depend on Me, victory will come, says the Lord. Psalm 16:11 You will show me the path of life; in Your presence is fullness of joy; at your right hand are pleasures forevermore.
FEBRUARY 2023
February 26, 2023: This will be a glorious time for you if you guard their heart with all diligence. Establish a watch over your life, and fight the good fight. In this time multiple blessings are available, so position yourself to receive them. Extraordinary times are before you. Do not lose heart. Renew your faith and begin again. Psalm 32:8 I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will guide you with My eye.
February 19, 2023: Stand in the truth of who you are in Me, says the Lord. Satan is a liar, and he will lie to you either directly or indirectly by finding someone to do it for him. If you receive these accusations about yourself, you will condemn yourself and be without My power. Romans 8:1 There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.
February 12, 2023: If you are to receive the blessings of this year, you must get over the disappointments of the past. Move past unbelief and establish yourself in a position of faith. I will most certainly reward your efforts. Forget the past and move into this season in and by faith. Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.
February 5, 2023: Rise up now and establish yourself in faith. Do this because the scriptures tell you how to receive from Me. I will most certainly reward your effort to establish yourself in faith. Forget the past and move into this new season in and by faith.
Philippians 3:13-14 Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead, I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.
JANUARY 2023
January 29, 2023: Guard My promises and keep them fresh. Do not allow the liar and thief to take them from you. Stay focused on My word, for it will keep you strong in Me and in the power of My might. Ephesians 6:10-11 Finally, my brethren be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. Put on the whole armor of God that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
January 22, 2023: You must believe My love for you. Learn to live in and be empowered by My love. My love will sustain you in troubled times. My love will strengthen you when Satan comes against you. Learn to live in the power of My love! My love will provide a covering of protection for you. Wear My love and be victorious, says the Lord.
January 15, 2023: Rise up now and establish yourself in faith. Let faith be consistent and constant in your life. Believe My Word, and live according to spiritual truth. Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.
January 8, 2023: If you are to receive the blessings of this year, you must get over the disappointments of the past. Move past unbelief and establish yourself in a position of faith. Philippians 3:13-14 Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead, I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.
January 1, 2023: A new season is being birthed. Put yourself in a position of faith to believe and receive all that I have for you. I will open doors of opportunity for you to come higher spiritually and to prosper in the face of adversity. Establish yourself in divine order so that you can overcome difficulties and hardship. Get ready to move forward in My purposes. John 16:33 These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.
