2023 Prophetic Word
The week after Christmas I was sitting in my backyard praying about 2023. While doing so I had an image appear to me. I saw a serpent and an olive brank, then I say the serpent begin to weave into the olive branch and I heard the Spirit say, “2023 would be a year of great calamity and great prosperity”. Although, I do not know the details of how either will unfold throughout this year there are a few things I believe the Lord has shown me moving forward into this new year.
- Be intentional and deliberate about pursuing what God has placed upon your heart to do for there you will find His favor. Do not wait “the right timing” or signs of confirmation, but instead take steps of faith. Do not wait until you have all the answers to all the questions, or you have all the details before taking your steps. No matter how big or how small you feel it is, be intentional in making moves forward in what God has placed upon your heart to do.
- Be watchful in prayer. Colossians 4:2 says, “Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful. Also, Jesus said in Luke 21:36 “Be always on the watch, and pray that you may be able to escape all that is about to happen, and that you may be able to stand before the Son of Man.”
- God will shift the wealth of the wicked to the righteous. God will reposition wealth into the hands of those He can trust to steward the resource according to His purposes and not their pleasures. God will leverage His Church with the bounty of this world (Egypt) to serve the Kingdom mission in the earth but will only do so with those who’s delight is in the Lord and has proven to be faithful to His will and not given to the idea that money is a means to their comfort or satisfaction. He will posture those with wealth that see it as a resource under their management to meet the needs of others and not for their own gain.
