Deborah Perkins's Blog

​Dear Friends,

One of the reasons why prophetic ministry is so essential to the church today is that only words sourced in the Spirit of God achieve the purposes of God. 

Scripture supports prophecy, and all good prophecy is founded upon Scripture: “This is the word of the LORD to Zerubbabel, saying, ‘Not by might, nor by power, but by My Spirit,’ says the Lord of Hosts.” (Zechariah 4:6) God must have a prophetic people through whom He can work effectively, lest He violate His own Word. For this reason, the Holy Spirit was poured out on all believers at Pentecost. 

Human reasoning is incapable of transformation. The mind of Christ must be accessed through faith, which is spiritual and relational trust, to tear down doctrines of demons and strongholds of deceit. We know the mind of Christ through the wisdom and teaching of the Holy Spirit. 

Revelatory words from God’s throne penetrate darkness and unlock secrets, bringing total transformation. Prophecy, like truth, may pierce the heart at first, but its goal is always to heal and restore relationships. 

In fact, one of the most beautiful applications of the prophetic is to facilitate healing. I want to share two illustrations of how healing comes through prophetic ministry.


PROPHECY RESTORES THE BODY

I spoke with a woman recently who had once operated in a python spirit, “prophesying” for many years from a demonic source. Her accurate details of people’s lives amazed them. Her story resembled that of the girl with divination in Acts 16. The only difference was that this woman believed she was a Christian at the time. 

The woman had been set free from that evil spirit in a local charismatic church. She freely testified to God’s delivering power and committed herself fully to Christ. However, her concern about the level of deception possible even for a believer caused her to move away from gift-based ministries into more evangelical streams.

When I met with this woman one day, she could barely speak because of a sudden impediment to her tongue. Her tongue was swollen and very painful. Friends had told her she might need to have surgery for what appeared to be a tongue tie, and she asked me to pray for her.

At the time, I knew nothing of her skepticism concerning the prophetic gifts. I prayed in tongues for just a moment before I heard the Lord say, “Tell her that she will not need surgery; I will give her a simple solution.” I urged the woman not to schedule the surgery, believing that within a few days, the Lord would show her what to do.    

Just one week later, she contacted me, very excited to share what God had done. Not only had God healed her tongue through a simple solution, as prophesied, but He’d also done a work in her heart. 

The woman confessed that when I began to pray in tongues the week before, she was extremely skeptical. She worried that she might be deceived by false prophecy again. Yet something in her spirit knew that both the tongues and my prophetic word felt different; they brought hope and peace, not fear.  

The next day, a friend of hers stopped by, heard about the situation and the prophecy, and suggested a simple solution no one had considered before. By making a nutritional change, she was able to reduce the swelling, and the pain disappeared. 

Ironically, God used the supernatural power of tongues and the prophetic to heal this woman’s tongue! Even more importantly, God restored her faith in the validity of prophetic revelation for today.  


PROPHECY BRINGS INNER HEALING 

Around the same time, I spoke with another woman who was bound by a lifetime of complex trauma. She had been unable to access a dissociated memory that was causing her soul to live in fear. 

Even as an adult, this forgotten wound from childhood tormented her. Counseling had not helped; inner healing for prenatal wounds had been insufficient. She had reached the limit of her frustration. 

In a time of prayer, the Lord revealed prophetically that the root of her pain was not prenatal. Rather, it occurred immediately after her birth, in the hospital. What she could not remember, the Lord had seen. 

Because the Lord lives outside of time, He can reveal what happened in our past as well as the future. This woman was able to forgive the hospital staff who contributed to her trauma, and she recovered a part of her childhood that had remained hidden. Peace returned, and her mind was set free.

My prayer time with this woman concluded with an interesting vision of the Lord handing her a key, saying, “This is the Jesus key.” Through prophetic insight, Jesus gave her a key to inner healing that she had searched for but could find nowhere else except in Him. 

The testimony of Jesus IS the Spirit of Prophecy! Inviting Christ to speak prophetically releases the fresh insight and revelation we need to heal both body and soul. Even demons believe this - and tremble!


PROPHETIC MINISTRY: AN END-TIME KEY THAT RELEASES GLORY

As end-time deception increases and demonic strongholds are reinforced even in and around believers, it is more important than ever to possess the Kingdom key of prophecy, a special gift for God’s family. Paul’s prayers help us understand why:  

[He prays] “...that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you a spirit of wisdom and of revelation in the knowledge of Him. I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened, so that you will know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints, and what is the surpassing greatness of His power toward us who believe. These are in accordance with the working of the strength of His might.” (Ephesians 1:17-19, NASB)

Prophecies that reveal Christ heal and transform the deceived, the wounded, the sick, the lost, and the hopeless. They are the means by which people of all ages are strengthened and reignited in their faith. 

Just as communion can be a picture of both mental and physical healing (the blood, internally, for the soul; and the broken bread, externally, for the physical body), so the revelatory words of the Lord facilitate the healing of both mind and body.  

To those who have doubted whether your healing and restoration are possible, I hear the Lord saying, “Let your heart hope again!” Put your trust in the sure words of the Lord, whose promises are inscribed on the pages of Scripture and revealed to the heart through present-day, prophetic ministry (Psalm 19:7-11; 1 Corinthians 14:25).

When you choose to welcome and not quench the Holy Spirit, you begin to partner with Christ in prophetic intercession, one of the highest privileges given to you in the family of God. You can ask for and receive your Wonderful Counselor’s solutions for every aspect of life: internal or external, for all times, for all people, and in every dimension. 

I pray that you’ll abide in the place of constant communion with  Christ, close enough to His heart to hear every healing word He speaks. More than this, I pray you’ll pursue the Spirit of prophecy for the greatest gift He can give you: the revelation of Jesus Christ.

Dear Friends, 

The vision you’re about to read is simple on the surface, bringing encouragement to those who are praying for prodigals. 

Yet, like the deep well it describes, this vision is multi-dimensional, containing a deeper call to the prodigal ‘parts’ within each one of our hearts to come home. 

Despite the encouragement of my advisors to publish today’s word, I trembled to do so, because I sensed a fiery urgency within it. There is a strong call for believers to walk in a level of humility and Fear of the Lord that we often avoid when we choose to emphasize God’s grace over His severity. 

May the Holy Spirit continue to reveal to each one of us the areas we keep separate from Him, giving us great grace to return.   

Deborah
   

THE VISION

As I prayed for the prodigals, I heard the Holy Spirit speak the words of Psalm 27:10 into my ears: “For my father and my mother have forsaken me, but the LORD will take me up.” (NASB) 

Immediately, I was given a vision of a deep well. The well was ancient, its black stones stacked row upon row around. It contained no water.  

Through no fault of his own, a prodigal had fallen into the well and was trying to climb out, like a modern-day Joseph. I did not see how the fall happened. I only knew that the prodigal had reached the point where they knew it was a matter of life or death. I also saw the Father standing at the foundation of the well.

At the sound of the prodigal’s cry, I heard the Father’s voice say, “Stop trying to climb and come down here!” 

Contrary to what the prodigal expected, the way out was the way down! The Father was standing at the base of the well, waiting for the prodigal to “hit bottom.” Until that point, there was little hope of rescue. 

The prodigal returned to the bottom of the well, abandoning the futile climb, and yielded to the Father’s plea. Immediately, the Father took him into His arms. 

It was a beautiful picture of reunion - yet as I watched in this vision, my natural mind wondered how this would unfold; now there were two of them 'stuck' in the well!

As if in answer to my thought, a rope was thrown down into the well from the top. Still holding onto the prodigal, the Father took hold of the rope, and both were raised to the top. Again, I heard the Spirit say (with an emphasis on the last word), “When Father and mother forsake me, the Lord will take me UP.” 

The single Hebrew word for “take me up” in Psalm 27 speaks of gathering up, collecting, or removing. 

I felt the Lord was highlighting not only the idea of gathering the fatherless and prodigals into His arms, rescuing them (as He did in the vision), but also the picture of ascension: the restoration of the spirit to Christ, in whom is all life, drink, and sustenance. For standing at the top of that well and holding the end of the rope was Jesus! 

(For a related vision, see America: Special Ops Angels are Being Released on a Divine Rescue Mission, a series of visions posted on 1.14.22)  

As I considered these things, the vision continued. I now saw three people standing together by the top of the well - Father, Son, and Prodigal. It was clear that the Son had “raised” the prodigal back to life, yet I felt compelled to ask, “What about the water?” Why isn’t there water in the well?” 

Spiritually, I was used to picturing believers as wells, with eternal life springing up out of them (John 4). I realized, however, that the well in the vision was not that kind of well. This was a well of sin, slavery, deception, and captivity.

Looking more closely at Jesus, I saw that His entire body was not made of flesh, but of LIQUID. He was the water the prodigal needed! The Father’s strong arms had caught the prodigal at his lowest point, yet it was a connection to the life of the Lord that would ultimately sustain that prodigal, keeping him out of the well.  

The three left the well and began walking together across a sunlit desert land. The ground seemed as hard and dry as the stones in the well, but at last, there was light and freedom. The prodigal, of course, was never meant to be alone. He was meant to walk with both Father and Son on his journey.

Engaging in the Spirit again as I watched in the vision, I asked, “Where are they going?”
 
In response, I heard the sound of another prodigal's cry to their left. My view was expanded, and in front of the three who walked, all around that dry terrain, were more wells. 

Somehow, I knew that in each well, another prodigal was trapped down below. Yet I noticed that the Father, Son, and rescued prodigal did not stop at every well to help. They turned only to the wells where a cry could be heard coming up. 

This was not for lack of compassion, I knew, but for want of desperation. 

Both Father and Son knew the location of every prodigal in that land. Yet those prodigals had to reach the point where they were desperate enough to cry for help instead of attempting their own rescues. It was the sound of the cries that activated compassion, initiating each rescue. 

As the vision closed, I was reminded that there are wells of sin and deception just as there are wells of truth and living water. 

Wells of sin can be literal or spiritual places that trap prodigals, holding them captive and keeping them from moving forward into their callings. 
​
Wells of living water are spiritual and mobile, residing within the spirits of rescued believers who walk together in partnership with Father and Son. 

On the surface, I believe the Lord showed me this vision to encourage parents, friends, and intercessors that He is still ACTIVELY rescuing prodigals from their wells of sin and despair as they cry out to Him. Do not give up praying for these redeemed-but-lost ones! Pray for holy hunger and desperation to bring them to the place where they cry out for help. The Lord hears and will answer. Isaiah writes: 

“The LORD God is waiting to show how kind He is and to have pity on you. The LORD always does right; He blesses those who trust Him. People of Jerusalem, you don't need to cry anymore. The Lord is kind, and as soon as He hears your cries for help, He will come.” (Isaiah 30:19) 

Yet going deeper, I believe the Lord is issuing a fiery reminder for all believers in this hour. 

Both Jeremiah and Paul wrestled with the deceitfulness of their hearts. Jeremiah wrote: “I the Lord search the heart and examine the mind, to reward each person according to their conduct, according to what their deeds deserve.”

The apostle Paul asked to “Consider… the kindness and sternness of God: sternness to those who fell, but kindness to you, provided that you continue in His kindness. Otherwise, you also will be cut off.” ~Romans 11:22, NIV 

The level of our obedience, represented in this vision by the LOWEST level the prodigal could go, is the true measure or “level” of our ascent. The messages are clear: we cannot ascend in the Spirit on our own power, nor can we coerce another prodigal to return! 

For 42 chapters, a righteous man, Job, failed to recognize that salvation came not by his own reasoning or self-righteousness, but by the mercy of God. Until Job saw the despicability of his humanity and cried out in humility and repentance, he remained in captivity to his God-allowed afflictions. (Job 42:11.) 

Difficult as it is to watch sometimes, God’s Kingdom honors and waits for engagement at a heart level. Nothing short of godly sorrow and repentance will make the cut, nor should we want it to! 

We cannot allow the sin nature or the spirit of religion to defile the holiness of the Spirit realm. Ascension, union, and fellowship originate in the perfect timing and will of the Spirit of God as we yield, cry out for help, and conform to His ways.

We must continue to pray for prodigals to come home! Yet more deeply, the mature among us must also choose our own endings: will we keep striving to justify ourselves before God, or will we daily yield to the Father of our Spirits and live? 

I hear the Lord saying once again: “Seek me and live! Do not seek Bethel, do not go to Gilgal, do not journey to Beersheba. For Gilgal will surely go into exile, and Bethel will be reduced to nothing. Seek the Lord and live, or He will sweep through the tribes of Joseph like a fire; it will devour them, and Bethel will have no one to quench it. There are those who turn justice into bitterness and cast righteousness to the ground.” (Amos 5:4-7 NIV)



PRAY WITH ME: 

Father, today we lift up every prodigal heart to You. 

Thank you for the limitless compassion and mercy that causes You to answer each one who calls to You for help! Thank you that Your eyes are searching the earth for those whose hearts are fully committed to you. You deserve nothing less.

May the prodigals become hungry and thirsty enough to cry out for Your goodness and righteousness again. Whether near or far, may they daily long to come “home” to Your heart, finding acceptance, love, and nurture in our faith. 

More so, if we find parts of our own hearts pierced by Your vision, may we be quick to repent! We praise You that no matter how far down we have fallen, You are there to heal and restore (Psalm 139:8). We choose the good ending you have for us as you continue to rescue and sanctify us!
 
The sin barrier preventing return has been removed by Your precious Blood. (Is. 59:1-2, Eph. 2:13, Col. 1:20.) We cover EVERY prodigal heart today with the barrier of the Blood of the Lamb. May Your rescuing love surround each one so that they are untouchable by the enemy. May the scarlet thread of Christ’s blood become their lifeline!  

We prophesy RELEASE to the captives and RETURN for those among us who have strayed. We believe even the captives of the mighty are delivered by Your power (Isaiah 49:24-26). Gather them up into your arms, Father, and let them ascend with You again to their rightful places in Christ. 

Rescue the perishing, Lord, and help us to partner with You as You do so. May our prodigal stories become the testimonies that set others free.

In Jesus’ Name, Amen.

PRAYER & PROPHECY COURSE LINKS

Dear Friends,

During worship this morning, I was overtaken by the Presence of the Lord. As I set my heart to listen, I heard Him whisper over and over, “I AM WITH YOU TO THE END!” 

Areas of doubt and unbelief seemed to vanish as His Presence saturated fearful places in my heart with His peace. Glory to God, there is nothing like the Presence of Jesus! 

Great reassurance surrounded me as Jesus spoke of His faithfulness and ability to guard the ones entrusted to Him, even to the very end. He is not leaving or abandoning His Body in these end times! He is with us now and will be with us to the very end of the age (Matthew 28:20). 

While I know these words are familiar to most believers, I cannot emphasize enough how reassuring and essential these words sounded at the time. As I continued to rest in His Presence, the Lord expanded my vision, revealing His heart for several groups of people in particular. 

These words are not simply meant to comfort the Body concerning the end times. They are meant to impart much-needed life, health, hope, and endurance. I encourage you to read through this word to the end to hear what the Lord might be saying to you! 


As that wonderful phrase “I am with you to the end” continued to resound and echo in my Spirit, I was comforted by Christ’s awareness of the end-time struggles we are facing worldwide. As one of my pastors once put it, “the Creator became a creation and did not exempt Himself from suffering.”* 

Jesus understands it all and is with us in it all.


THE ELDERLY

In this encounter, I first saw the Lord sustaining the elderly, whose bodies felt weary and weak. He was comforting those who wondered whether they could make it to the end of their journeys. 

I saw Jesus speaking and releasing fresh strength to the aged. His words sustained their physical bodies, invigorating them from within and forming an unbreakable shield around them. I felt a tangible reassurance that nothing could happen to them apart from His divine will. 

If this is you today, know that you are both eternally and temporally SECURE in Him, no matter how your body feels.


THE SICK

After this, I saw the sick, especially those who had been fighting long battles with illness. 

I knew beyond a doubt that the power of Christ to heal had not been nullified. Healing was still readily available!

I sensed a great desire in Christ’s heart to PARTNER with those who are sick. Jesus has not given up on the afflicted, but in many cases the enemy has caused them to partner with unbelief through multiple medical diagnoses and delays. 

Yet in this case, the source of healing was not in the medical treatments .  

As the sick turned their hearts to the Lord, choosing to trust in His Word, healing began to manifest from the inside out. Spirits and souls realigned with the power of God’s Word, wisdom was released, and illnesses began to vanish. 

In this encounter, ancient, unchanging truths about healing came alive, not from an external source or outpouring, but from internal emotional restoration, which was the key to the physical manifestations.  


VISIONARIES & KINGDOM-BUILDERS

Next, I saw many believers carrying God-given visions and assignments in their hearts. They had begun to work or build correctly, but progress had stopped. Right in the middle, it seemed that the vision had suddenly dried up; future steps were unclear. 

Here again, I sensed the Lord saying He was with them “to the end.” He was just as near to those stuck in the middle as He was at the beginning! Yet He was looking for visionaries to return their gazes to Him. 

I saw the Lord watching and waiting until visionaries’ eyes were redirected from the blueprints back to the Architect. The goal was not as important as the relationship! These builders were building legitimate, godly designs, but the Master Builder was also still building hearts. 

The Lord wants to hold builders’ hearts as tightly as builders hold to their visions. He will make adjustments as necessary, using “downtimes” as an incentive to return fully to Him.  

I heard the Lord say He will see each vision to completion as these builders continue to partner with Him, prioritizing the relationship over any previously-assigned tasks.


THE “FORGOTTEN” & DISILLUSIONED

Finally, I saw a group of people who had begun their spiritual journeys with great encounters, expectations, power, and deep experiences in God. However, the excitement of early days had diminished, and now they felt they were living in a dry spell. They wondered whether God had forgotten them. 

For some, this spiritual desert had lasted not for months, but for years. Hope was nearly gone and disappointment made these believers wonder whether they would ever experience God like that again. The enemy had used the opportunity to condemn, and it was tempting to give up completely. 

To this group of disillusioned ones, I heard the Lord say. “I AM FAITHFUL!” 

Christ’s faithfulness eclipsed any human failures or temptations. I knew that He was eager to restore and renew relationships to the depth each person would allow.

I saw a beautiful transformation of hearts taking place as believers chose to take hold of their faith again, rejecting rejection and disappointment. They were reawakened to the fullness and vitality of God’s life within.  


HE IS ALPHA AND OMEGA

Above all, in all these scenarios, the Lord highlighted the need for continued TRUST in Him to reach the desired end. 

When the end is not clear; when we feel stuck in the middle of a trial or a process, it’s not reaching the end that is important, but leaning into Jesus step by step, with wholehearted trust that HE is the Alpha and Omega. He will bring it all to pass!


I see an anointing for ENDURANCE being released among believers today, a “finishing” anointing not based on personal grit or human resilience, but on PURE FAITH in the One who will be with us to the very end of our journeys. 

Like us, Jesus has suffered. He has been faithful and has overcome all. He is revealing Himself once again as the Mighty Warrior, Faithful and True, who embraces linen-clothed saints when they worship, then leads them into victorious war (Revelation 19:6-8; 11-14)!    

May the Overcoming One release fresh empowerment to you today to finish well, whether you are finishing your race, completing a vision, weathering a trial, or rebuilding your relationship with the Holy Spirit. 

He is with you to the very end!

Prophetic word received on 5.9.25:

“GIVE ME YOUR VOICE!

For as you do, I will MOVE through the sound and frequency of it to create BLESSING all around you. I will transform cities and nations by the PURE SPEECH that results from your surrendered hearts. 

Don’t allow the enemy to cap your well again, Dear Ones, for he has so often stopped the flow of what I intended, and I say 'NO MORE!' 

Come to Rehoboth! Come to the place of eternal springs welling up on the inside, the anointing within you FULLY RELEASED and free. Why would I hinder your testimony of Me? For I have heard you say in your heart, “My words are worthless. They are meaningless.” 

But I say to you that every word you utter has PROFOUND MEANING, and your words are so powerful that the enemy has sent mercenary after mercenary to TRADE off of you and rob you of your blessing! NO MORE. 

For I am raising up a SOUND, even a CORPORATE SOUND of UNITED BELIEVERS in My Name who will release all that has been quenched in the past. A mighty, rushing SOUND of freedom for the captives and deliverance from the enemy!  Do not hold back, but STAND and prophesy with Me, and you will see turnarounds come immediately at the sound of your voice. 

Consider the nameless “man of God” whom I sent to Bethel (1 Kings 13). At the sound of his voice, mingled with Mine, the altar of the godless SPLIT IN TWO! No weapon was needed but My ANOINTED SOUND. 

Consider Gideon’s army, whose trumpets and shattered pitchers caused such a stir that the enemy fled from their sound. 

Consider Joshua and the Israelites, whose silence only prepared the way for an anointed SHOUT OF VICTORY! 

In every case, I used the SOUND OF MY WORD to shatter barriers, demolish strongholds, deliver from death, and redeem the oppressed. You will find no better weapon than the sword of My Word!

Yield your voice to Me daily and I will overtake and fill it with the sound of My voice, which echoes the beating of My heart. For every pulse of My heart resonates with love, and every beat - like the beat of a drum - is meant to set the captives free. 

This is what I live for, and this is what I designed you to do also. 

Go, therefore, and release sounds of victory in every place I send you, for what you say will be done for you as you align totally and completely with My will.”

…As I placed my hand on the wall of the house, I could feel it pulsing, vibrating. I looked up and saw the Hebrew word “SHEMA” written in an arc above me in the atmosphere. The house and its contents were alive! 

I removed my hand from the wall. I noticed that my hand still shook and vibrated. I could not interact with this House without coming alive myself, without realizing that everything had a resonance and a frequency. The frequencies seemed to increase as I came into the House and decrease when I left. 

I discovered that the very walls of this place echoed the sound of its owner’s voice. Looking through the wall, I could see its framework. Running up and down the studs were WORDS - ancient, living words and living letters that were not stationary at all but MOBILE. 

Suddenly, the wooden studs disappeared, and there were only words. This House was being sustained by the power of the owner’s words! 

I realized that my flesh was still reacting, responding to the frequencies of the owner’s powerful voice. The closer I came, the more my flesh seemed to take on a life of its own, pulsing and expanding with energy until my humanity could sustain no more of the spoken frequencies vibrating within me.

Revelation-knowledge struck me like lightning: I COULD NOT MISS HEARING IN THIS HOUSE! The owner's voice lived WITHIN the walls; that Voice was woven into the fabric of this spiritual dwelling. 

If I did miss something, the sound of the words would bounce off the walls, echoing in my ears until I received them, until their truths penetrated every cell of my being. 

Security enveloped me. Isaiah’s words resonated in my ears, “Your walls are ever before Me!” 

All became clear. In the Spirit, I lived in a “Shema” state. I lived in a "House Made of Sound."


These words represent a real encounter I experienced with the Lord once, as He taught me about healing frequencies, especially the powerful frequencies of His voice.

In that encounter, He showed me that spiritual “pioneers of healing through frequencies” were arising who would not champion frequency machines, but the pure, healing frequencies of God’s voice.  

Science has proven that all matter - even blood - has a frequency. All created things have a voice that God hears. All created things also hear and respond (Greek, “shema”) to the voice of the Lord. 

During the Babylonian exile, even in their broken-down state, Jerusalem’s walls and stones still had a voice. This is why God said through Isaiah that her walls were “ever before Him” (Isaiah 49:16). This is why Jesus said the rocks can cry out.

In the same way, the shattered pieces of our lives cry out to God. He hears, and He heals. How does He heal and rebuild? He speaks.

​
HOW TO BUILD IN THE SPIRIT

It is a wise woman, Proverbs 14:1 says, who builds her house. 

What is wisdom? 

It is the manifestation of God’s Spirit at work in His Bride. 

Where are wise builders found? 

According to Paul, they are found “burdened and groaning in the house,” praying and interceding for the things of the Spirit (2 Cor. 5:2, 4). The builders are the lovers and intercessors who agonize over the lost and broken ones, releasing the sounds and frequencies of God’s words for healing and restoration.  

By contrast, the foolish woman of Proverbs 14 tears the house down with her own hands. In relying on her own strength, the wise Bride becomes a fool. She builds with hay, wood, and straw - things that will deteriorate and not stand the test of time.  

Jesus built the Kingdom right into people’s hearts, speaking living words into human frameworks until they, too, resonated and were transformed by His voice. Just as the Lord showed me visually in the above encounter, His voice still sustains us (Hebrews 1:3).

Paul also built Christ’s church without any physical building campaigns. Biblically, hearts are the houses; spiritual legacies are our inheritances! Our spiritual houses (hearts) are meant to be “houses made of sound,” living stones, arks, and temples that hear the Word of the Lord and respond with faith.

Paul writes: “Don’t you know that you yourselves are God’s temple and that God’s Spirit dwells in your midst?”

And: “By the grace God has given me, I laid a foundation as a wise builder, and someone else is building on it. But each one should build with care. For no one can lay any foundation other than the one already laid, which is Jesus Christ. If anyone builds on this foundation using gold, silver, costly stones, wood, hay or straw, their work will be shown for what it is, because the Day will bring it to light. It will be revealed with fire, and the fire will test the quality of each person’s work. If what has been built survives, the builder will receive a reward. If it is burned up, the builder will suffer loss but yet will be saved—even though only as one escaping through the flames.

“If anyone destroys God’s temple, God will destroy that person; for God’s temple is sacred, and you together are that temple.” (1 Corinthians 10:3-17, NASB)

Believers build a “house not made with hands.”

“For we know that if the earthly tent which is our house is torn down, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. For indeed in this house we groan, longing to be clothed with our dwelling from heaven, inasmuch as we, having put it on, will not be found naked. For indeed while we are in this tent, we groan, being burdened, because we do not want to be unclothed but to be clothed, so that what is mortal will be swallowed up by life. Now He who prepared us for this very purpose is God, who gave to us the Spirit as a pledge. Therefore, being always of good courage, and knowing that while we are at home in the body we are absent from the Lord, we are of good courage, I say, and prefer rather to be absent from the body and to be at home with the Lord. Therefore, we also have as our ambition, whether at home or absent, to be pleasing to Him.”  ~ 2 Corinthians 5:1-6,8-9 NASBS, emphasis mine.

How does God build His house?

PROPHETICALLY! 

Through sound of His words, God "frames," builds, and creates.  

Your true home is a spiritual dwelling place whose front door is prayer.

The “Shema” kind of hearing and obeying Jesus describes is possible for all believers because you are created to resonate to the sound of God’s voice. The real "you" lives in a house not made with hands, but with sound. 

Spiritual sight and hearing is fine-tuned as you spend time in God's house. As God's treasured creation, it is essential to develop your spiritual senses, so that you can become a builder of what you see in God's heart and Spirit, establishing Kingdom realities on earth. To build what lasts, you must abandon human strength and embrace Spirit-empowered wisdom.

In the course of ministry, people often ask me, "How can I hear from God better? Does God really want to speak to me?"

The answer is a resounding "YES!"

To illustrate this, I want to share a brief encounter I had with the Holy Spirit that convinced me once and for all that God speaks to His children without exception. 

One morning, the Holy Spirit awakened me, saying, “I am so much better than you think I am!”

This was an unexpected early-morning conversation starter for someone who was still struggling to open her eyes!

After that initial "teaser," He immediately brought one of my favorite scriptures, Ephesians 3:20-21, to mind:

“Now to Him who is able to do far more abundantly beyond all that we ask or think, according to the power that works within us, to Him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations forever and ever. Amen.” (NASB)

Holy Spirit continued speaking as I pondered those words. He said, “Man reads these words in Ephesians and sees function: ‘I can DO more than you ask or imagine.’ But all that I DO is rooted in all that I AM, and I AM much better than you imagine I am!” 

The words “far more abundantly” (above) are an English translation of just one word in the Greek: perissos. I am not a Greek scholar, but Thayer’s dictionary* gives me a much better idea of what is meant here: 

SuperabundantExceeding some number, measure, rank, or needFar more than is necessaryOver and aboveSuperiorPreeminent Extraordinary or uncommonSuperior, much more than all!
We serve the Man of Glory whose arms, legs, and feet are fire, like burnished bronze in a furnace. (Rev. 1:14-15 & Daniel 10:6) Think: glossy, bright, liquid sunlight! There’s fire all around Him, in His walk and His service. These external descriptors speak to His form and His function. 

This same Man is also described as having eyes like flaming torches and a glow-in-the-dark face that can’t be missed even when the lights go out! Those eyes reflect the fire within, giving us a glimpse into His character, which is equally glorious.       

The Lord wants to SIGNIFICANTLY EXPAND our understanding of His character and nature so that we BELIEVE He will speak to us daily. He desires to give us, each day, our daily bread. 

Not only that, but HE IS our daily bread:

“I am the living bread that came down from heaven. Whoever eats this bread will live forever. This bread is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.” (John 6:51, NIV)

As manna fell daily in the wilderness and each man gathered up his provision for the day, so the Word of God is dropped like dew into believers’ hearts each morning as they meditate on Christ. (See Exodus 16; Numbers 11:8.)

If you can receive it, Jesus became living manna, and the answer to Israel’s question in the wilderness, “What is it?” is that this “bread of angels” is Christ Himself (Psalm 78:23-25). Angels feast on and obey the Word of God. How much more should we do the same?

Jesus taught us to pray, “Give us this day our daily bread.” The bread He asked for was not just physical, but spiritual (See John 4:32). If Jesus expected the Father to give Him spiritual food, then we can expect Him to release revelation to us as well. Why would a good Father give us a stone instead of bread? 

Ultimately, “give us this day” is a prayer for daily encounters with God’s Presence. It's an invitation to communion and fellowship with a God who is so good, He wakes us up in the morning to remind us of His desire to be with us! Can you feel the excitement He has to be with you? To talk with you morning and night, just as He commanded you to do with your beloved children? (Deut. 6:7) 

But what does He want to talk about? How do we encounter this glorious, burning Son of Man? 

Many people are so afraid of the "unknowns" a prayer relationship entails that they hide behind religion instead. Rules, rituals, and regulations often feel safer.

Yet if people knew how SUPERABUNDANTLY GOOD God is; how much better than all the joy they could imagine finding in a human being, they would run from religion, right into the arms of a wonderful, radiant, and joyful God!

No true believer in Jesus’ time avoided Him. Children ran into His arms to receive their blessing. The sick didn’t blame Him, they craved Him! The poor were His best friends. The toughest types left everything to follow Him. And that was before He was glorified! 

HOW MUCH MORE, then, will this glorious Christ, whose blood opened the way into relationship with the Father, reveal His goodness to you? HOW MUCH MORE does He desire to give you peace, joy, fruitfulness, and glory? 

Listen to Jesus’ prayer in John 17:24: 

“Father, I DESIRE that they also, whom You have given Me, may be with Me where I am, to see My glory that You have given Me because You loved Me before the foundation of the world.”  (ESV; emphasis mine)

Hear Him say to you as He did to His first disciples:

“Whoever has My commandments and keeps them, he it is who loves Me. And he who loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I will love him and manifest Myself to him.” John 14:21 ESV

Because God is so good, He desires to have fellowship with His creatures, satisfying our deepest needs with His life-giving Presence. HE IS the daily bread we pray for! 

John assures us that we can be CONFIDENT in God’s desire to speak to us. He writes: 

“These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, so that you may know that you have eternal life. This is the confidence we have before Him, that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us. And if we know that He hears us in whatever we ask, we know that we have the requests which we have asked from Him.” ~ 1 John 5:13-15 NASB

Dear friend, settle once and for all that you are created in God's image and meant to hear from Him! 

That God DOES desire to speak to you. 

And that part of your inheritance as a believer is to ask for and receive manna. Daily bread. Those sweet-as-honey cakes, baked in the hot coals of Christ’s glorious Presence and delivered to you by messenger angels.

God's words are the supernatural substance you MUST have to continue ministering on this earth. You don't need to convince HIM of this. He knows! You need to be convinced yourself.  

Daily bread: eternal, enduring provision, is there for you when all other supply is cut off. There is no fear of lack in the Kingdom. There is so much more than you can ask or imagine! 

You only need to BELIEVE, and to ASK. 

Right now, He's waiting to hear your voice. 

Ask for more !

​

For the past week, the Lord has brought me into several encounters concerning His deep desire to give members of His Bride both a VOICE and a VISION.

Many in the Body of Christ went through severe trials and testing prior to Passover. Many battled the devourer at the gates of destiny and were victorious. Those overcoming ones now stand at the threshold of a new season with new opportunities! 

I believe the Lord wants to establish you and pour out power and anointing you have not experienced before as you begin to advance and conquer more of your promised land. He wants you to have a voice and a vision!

Once again, I felt the Lord’s heart for those who have a prophetic call and commission to be the sound of His voice on the earth and to AMPLIFY the message of His Kingdom. 

From the start, the Lord envisioned a prophetic community of believers who would become His “microphone,” amplifying the sound of His voice to all who will hear. (Read “Glory on the Airwaves” here) 

Yet some are still turning away to other voices because they do not believe in the power of their own intimacy with Christ! 

To these, I hear the Lord saying, “There are things I would like to tell My people, but they are too busy to listen, too focused on other voices and visions!

“These voices and visions have become so consuming to them that they no longer develop the powerful voice of God within - that precious comingling of My voice within their own - in what I see as a “holy matrimony.” 

Jesus’ resounding prayer is: I am in you and the Father is in Me, and We desire unity! (John 17:23) 

Do not miss your union with what is powerful and invisible by seeking only what is seen! Christ promises that when you love and turn to Him, you WILL see Him; your vision will be restored. (John 14:21; Acts 9)  

I saw the Lord patiently waiting in the background for His children to be truly ready to hear again (Hebrew: “shema,” to truly listen and respond or obey). 

Hearing is not primarily physical, but spiritual. Ultimately, all things are spiritually discerned. Without the breath of the Spirit within us, we would see and hear nothing! 

Hearing and seeing flow from the inner man; when you see the power of who God is within you, you do not desire any other voice or any other vision!


COME WITH ME

As I pondered these words in prayer, I asked the Lord for a confirming scripture. In response, He gave me Luke 24:13-35, but with an unusual twist. 

In a vision, I heard the Lord’s voice saying “Come with Me!” 

I encountered the Lord standing on what appeared to be a highway above me in the Spirit. This, He said, represented the “Emmaus Road.” 

Jesus then extended His hand to me as a member of His Bride. 

As I was lifted up onto this highway, I began walking and talking with Christ just as the two disciples had done two thousand years before.

As we walked, I saw the destination: Heaven! Yet there was still a way to go, and I somehow knew His Bride was carrying a very heavy weight with her.  

I sensed the Bride’s desire to be free of this weight, and heard her cry “How long, Lord?” as she wrestled with it. 

Jesus replied to her with the comforting words of Revelation 6:11: “Just a little while longer.”  Then He took the weight in His own arms. 

Spiritual life with Jesus is meant to include both listening and leaning, so that the heaviest weights are borne by Him. “Leaning” on Jesus means He carries the weight so that you can continue walking and talking! 


STAY WITH ME

As we walked, I reviewed the Emmaus story in my mind. Like most believers, I wanted to “constrain” the Lord’s wonderful Presence, so that He felt welcome to stay in my spiritual home! I wondered how best to continue hosting Him.  

In response, the Lord retold the story of Emmaus in a different way. 

Instead of the Bride constraining Him, He said, He was inviting the Bride to HIS house to stay! 

As the vision expanded, I saw the Lord bring the Bride into His heavenly tent, washing her feet and sharing a beautiful meal and fellowship with her. Much of what He shared was essential revelation for her future. 

As the vision closed, the Lord asked, “Do you know what Emmaus means?”

It wasn’t until after the encounter that I learned the word “Emmaus” in Greek means “warm baths.” 

Beyond the spiritual “washing” of salvation available to all, Jesus is issuing an invitation to His beautiful Bride to immerse herself in times of intimate, holy fellowship and communion with Him. To miss His voice at this hour is a grave mistake!   


CONFIDENT, CLOSE, AND COMMITTED

In prayer recently, the Lord emphasized that He desired His people to live “Confident, Close, and Committed” to Him for this new season. Biblically, confidence is found only in the Fear of the Lord (Proverbs 14:26). 

The greatest revelation of these recent encounters is that the Lord desires to bring us into His confidence! Whether you have walked with Him for a day or for forty years, He longs to draw you even closer. 

Just as the two disciples urged Jesus to stay with them at Emmaus, so He is now constraining willing members of His Bride to stay with Him in prayer, so that godly confidence can grow to meet the weighty demands placed upon her.
  

THE VOICE AND THE VISION ARE HIS

I heard a specific caution in the Spirit to learn this saying: “‘ He who has no voice has no vision.’ For without a vision people perish, and without My voice there is no vision!” 

Both the apostle Paul and King David echoed this thought. Paul wrote, “There is no one with true spiritual insight, there is no one who seeks after God alone. All have deliberately wandered from God’s ways. …They never experience the path of peace. They shut their eyes to the awe-inspiring God!” (Romans 3:11-12; 17-18, TPT; see also Psalm 14) 

God distinguished the Jewish nation from all other people by entrusting them with the revelation of His prophetic promises (Romans 3:2, TPT). Yet rules, rituals, and unbelief prevented them from entering into the fullness of those promises. Losing His voice, they lost their vision - and missed the Messiah when He came. 

The Lord is still longing to entrust His promises to those who will listen for His voice and watch for His vision. Are you part of that Bridal Company whose sole focus is her Bridegroom? Your intimacy with the Lord is a powerful and necessary weapon to combat the voices and visions of the deceived! 

As you move across the threshold of this new day, may you heed the Spirit’s call to stay within earshot of the pure Voice of the Lord. Reject all other voices and visions.

Remain close and committed to the Lord, and He will pull you into His confidence. Even unfamiliar terrain will become navigable to you because you hear and obey the Lord who IS your Way! 


May the Lord release His voice and His vision for your future,

Deborah

Hosea 14:7 NASBS
Those who live in His shadow will again raise grain, and they will blossom like the vine. His renown will be like the wine of Lebanon.

In prayer on April 25, 2025, the Lord revealed to me that many believers will be called out of their comfort zones to release glory in a new place. For some of those called, that new place is going to be on the AIRWAVES. 

I see an amplification of massive proportions coming. The Lord is taking over the airwaves and releasing glory through broadcasting in a way no one has ever imagined!  

In a vision, I saw the Lord wielding people’s voices and videos like spiritual "machetes" on the airwaves. Every swing of these machetes broke new ground in the Spirit. I heard Him say, “Don’t be afraid to take over the airwaves, for I am going to AMPLIFY the voices of My people over the airwaves and in the spirit realm!”

What once felt uncomfortable for some of you will become normal to you in the future. Every audio or video you broadcast will become like the swing of God’s machete as it is sent across the Internet! 

We often think of new territory in the natural realm, but God is showing me new ground being taken in the atmosphere. Why? Because God is releasing His glory around the world via the AIRWAVES.

When the Lord spoke the word “AIRWAVES,” I realized that it was a play on words. He continued,  “I AM TAKING OVER THE AIR - WAVES!” 

I understood the Lord was referring back to the WAVE OFFERINGS of the Old Testament priests in Leviticus. The prince of the power of the air was going to be displaced and defeated by the wave offerings of God’s people in this hour as they released God‘s glory through their testimonies. Mass deception from the Father of Lies will be replaced by an outpouring of truth, and the truth will reap its harvest.  


GLORY "WAVE OFFERINGS"

Biblically, wave offerings were unique in that they were given to God but not burned up.

Whether it was the firstfruits of a barley harvest, meat, or money, the Levites would hold this offering in their hands and wave it in the air to the Lord, unlike the burnt offerings consumed on the altar. They would then partake of this offering since it was a shared gift between the Lord and the community. It could even be the priests’ food. 

What does this mean for us?

Symbolically, hands speak of giftings. Not all gifts or sacrifices are things that we have to give up entirely, or that are burned up on the altar. Some are offered to God, then returned to us for God’s purposes. 

​
ONLY A SHADOW

In a vision, I saw believers who had been brought to the place of total death to self, who thought this dark place was the end of their ministries. Yet here I heard the Spirit speaking of new things, saying this was only a shadow of death they were passing through.

These believers emerged from the shadows of death and fear, testifying that they had, in fact, been hidden in the SHADOW OF THE MOST HIGH! The shadow of God's hand had brought freedom to them, birthing resurrection life. 

I saw that these called-out ones also carried special talents. Whether that talent was teaching or speaking, a musical gift, a prophetic voice, or a creative expression, they offered that talent to God as their “wave offering.”

​As they humbled themselves before the Lord, they were willing to die to any self-promotion or fleshly use of that gift, which was good. Yet there were many to whom God was giving their talent back, asking them to use it in a new way, for His purposes alone.

Friends, I believe God's desire is to AMPLIFY what has been hidden in this hour. He  longs to "imprint" the image and glory of Christ in human hearts as He takes over the airwaves! 

​
DEMONIC SACRIFICES

In this vision, I was also taken underground and shown dark crypts and catacombs where death and evil lurked. As the voice of God was amplified, these demonic atmospheres were flooded and flushed out. Contamination was brought to the surface and simply washed away.

I saw glory coming in ways people did not expect! “The people who sit in darkness will see a great light, and upon those who sit in the region and shadow of death a Light will dawn.” (Matt. 4:16, adapted.) 

I heard the Lord saying that Lucifer has twisted the idea of a wave offering by using the airwaves (media and the internet) to inspire demonic sacrificial offerings to himself. He has seduced thousands to sacrifice themselves on the altar whose four corners promise pride, power, prosperity, and personal gratification.

The enemy's promises are nothing but wind, but Christ's very breath is substance!

I believe we will see committed believers release greater and greater glory through their true offerings to the Lord. God is mobilizing an army to break new ground, both online and in the spirit realm.  
​

God is using every available means to reach a world trapped in places of darkness, fear, and despair. Like the life still residing in Elisha's dead bones, crypts can become sanctuaries and catacombs the passageways for the Holy Spirit's transmissions. Jesus still visits sinners in their prisons! 

Pure, godly voices are being amplified and released like the strokes of a punishing rod, sent into the darkest regions of people’s hearts, homes, and lives. Captives are being freed as they see and hear these sacrificial “wave offerings” worldwide. 

If this word resonates with you, know that the shadows you've experienced have not been unto death, but unto life! They were merely evidence that you were hidden in God's hand.

Look up, shake off your fears and see how closely the Lord has inscribed you on the palms of His covering hands.

​Renounce the "small" mindsets that limit what you can do. Reread Isaiah 49 until the fullness of the picture God has for your life comes clear. Like a polished arrow in God's quiver, you will be launched as a light not just to local audiences, but also to the nations! 

We are entering the second Hebrew month of the year, Iyar, which is a month of healing, restoration, and illumination. It's time join your voice to an army of unashamed, empowered believers changing spiritual atmospheres.

​Release your prophetic testimony of Christ’s glory wherever He sends you! 

Deborah
