Dear Saints, in our shared journey toward transformation into the image of Christ, there exist moments when divine lessons and insights illuminate our path. Today, I feel compelled to share recent revelations from the Lord that may offer comfort and guidance to those navigating their own transformative journey.
Presently, we stand at a crucial juncture where God is about to fulfill enduring promises and answer prayers that have lingered for what feels like an eternity. There’s an unmistakable stirring in the spiritual realm hinting at the imminent arrival of open doors of opportunities, breakthroughs, and long-awaited promises.
Yet, in a recent encounter with God, He emphasized the significance of waiting on Him for these forthcoming blessings. He spoke to my heart, highlighting my mishandling of recent life situations—a lesson I believe to be important for all within the Body of Christ.
This divine lesson initially came to me through two vivid prophetic dreams. Within these dreams, I found myself confined within a prison, attempting to break free rather than patiently awaiting God’s intervention for my liberation. This imagery resonated deeply with the financial prison that I’ve been in for what seems like an eternity. Through these dreams, God revealed the self-willed and premature nature of my efforts to get myself out of this financial prison, lacking the patience required to await His breakthrough and provisions in my life. As I’ve shared on here before, God has called me to be a Joseph in these last days and told me that He’s going to abundantly bless my finances far above anything I’ve ever known. But for what seems like forever, I’ve been in my prison of financial lack waiting for God to fulfill His word over my life.
Allow me to offer more insight into my story of growing weary of waiting and failing to trust God for my provisions. Some time ago, in response to prayer, God revealed His calling for me to establish a business aimed at aiding small independent healthcare providers in securing rightful payments from insurance companies. Within the healthcare sector, there’s a pervasive issue of insurance companies wrongfully denying or underpaying healthcare providers for their services. This particularly affects small independent practices striving to financially sustain themselves. Thus, God has called me to assist these practices. However, He has revealed to me that His calling on my life in this arena extends beyond the immediate tasks of the business, emphasizing the larger influence I’ll exert within the healthcare insurance industry, fostering change within individuals and companies, encouraging fairness and righteousness in their practices.
Although, despite doors opening for me to secure two clients in this business, the path to successful claims processing and payment collection has been fraught with challenges. My clients have only presented me with a single insurance claim matter, and to date, I have not succeeded in securing their due payment from the insurance companies. As I receive compensation based on a percentage of the amounts collected for my clients, I am yet to generate any revenue from the business.
However, a recent revelation from the Lord may hold the key to unlocking these owed payments. And upon resolving this issue, my clients have pledged to refer others, potentially heralding a breakthrough for both my business and financial stability.
In the meantime, God has me mainly relying on the generosity and donations of others to support myself. Despite my efforts, God has not allowed me to get regular employment and has redirected my focus towards gaining knowledge in the field I’m meant to serve and in seeking Him. Although, He has allowed me to earn a little money on the side working for a man who has a business providing event staffing, like for concerts, sporting events, etc. The work I get through this man amounts to maybe the same as having a small part-time job that helps cover my monthly expenses since I don’t receive much through donations. Though I am VERY grateful for what I do receive.
However, recent circumstances with this man’s business resulted in a decrease in available work, leading to financial strain. For the first time in a long time, I’m behind on my bills and have already received two disconnect notices for my utilities.
As a result, I started looking for other ways to make money or even start another business that would be easier to start making profits. That is when God graciously gave me the prophetic dreams revealing my reliance on self-efforts to get myself out of this predicament, instead of relying on Him to provide in His timing. These dreams served as a poignant reminder of my impatience in trying to liberate myself from my financial constraints instead of waiting upon God’s providence.
Another time early in the morning while still in bed, I heard a voice resonating within my thoughts, telling me that I rely on my own strength and understanding more than resting in His grace. After repenting and seeking God regarding this, the lesson became apparent: relying on His Spirit is pivotal, especially in the challenging times that lie ahead.
The difficult days ahead will demand an intimate connection with the Spirit of God. Those who walk in faith, guided by His Spirit and relying on His power and providence, will endure, while others, without such reliance, will be overcome. The necessity of learning to rely fully on Him now cannot be overstated, for the storms ahead will require foundations rooted in His wisdom and guidance.
Thankfully, there’s still an opportunity for us to prepare and mature inwardly for what is coming. God is on the brink of a remarkable outpouring of His Spirit, gifting us with His unprecedented grace to overcome areas of the flesh and self-will. However, this preparatory time will be short. So today is the time to prepare. Today is the time to advance in the things of God and what he has called us to pursue and possess.
During this time of His unpresendented grace and outpouring of His Spirit, breakthroughs, once seen as insurmountable, are on the horizon. They’ll still require effort on our part, yet they’ll become achievable with God’s guidance. In this season of spiritual abundance, keep in mind that prompt obedience will bring rapid progress and profound transformations in our lives.
God will do a quick work with those who listen, follow, and obey. This is truly our moment to rise up and shine, for our light has come. Those who heed God’s call in this will witness rapid personal change which will be imperative for the days ahead. A time is coming where our lives will depend on the leading of His Spirit. We can already see this coming to fruition with all the violent protests in the streets. A time is coming where it will be get more violent than we could possibly imagine, and we MUST be led by His Spirit to avoid traps of the enemy.
So, reflecting on the lesson I’ve learned, I urge you: anticipate breakthroughs but let go of reliance on your own strength and understanding. In all your ways, acknowledged Him and He will guide your path. As the waiting period nears its end, maintain your trust in God for these breakthroughs. Effort on our part may be necessary in some instances, but let it be fueled by His grace and wisdom. Cease from striving and rest in His grace. Your astonishment at what God can accomplish when He is allowed to move mightily on your behalf will be not just a revelation but a source of deep fulfillment and joy.
And I greatly thank all of you who have been so gracious to give and help me with my financial burdens during this season of my life. I am believing God for breakthrough very very soon and can’t wait to share my testimony with you all. Take heart that God is moving on all our behalf and very soon we will all experience our breakthrough and release from our prisons of waiting.
And speaking of financial burdens, it’s that time that my rent and other bills are due, so please seek the Lord if He would have you to give a donation of any size to help me with my needs. I love you all, and may the Lord abundantly bless you.
Your Brother in Christ,
Kevin B.
