Chase after your dreams! No more delay!
This piece was something I wrote to myself to encourage myself in the Lord. I pray you are encouraged as well!
Chasing your dreams...
It's time to stop making excuses. I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength. God, You are the author and finisher of my faith. Greater is waiting. I know that you have something for my family. It's all about legacy and being the answer to many people's prayers.
It's time to step out of the shadows and into God's marvelous light.
Faith without works is dead. The just shall live by faith. Without faith, it's impossible to please you, God.
I ask for forgiveness for procrastinating. I ask for strength and courage to be what You have called me to be in this season and beyond.
I have to do what I believe.
It's time out for complacency.
I've been staying in my comfort zone for quite some time. Lord, you've put on my heart so much.
It's time to execute and embrace these God-given ideas and dreams.
Holy Spirit, have Your way in me.
You've brought me this far, and You won't leave nor forsake me.
I'm walking in power and victory.
I do see divine appointments and encounters this month!
It's time.
Amen!
Even though the Lord gave this word to me on quiet time, He's telling me to release it to the one this resonates with and claim this word for yourself!
Let's be great together! Let me know if this was your word in the comments! 😊🙌🏾
Playing the Deadly Game of Comparison
Do you suffer from comparing your life to someone else's?
Do you wish you had been further along in your life and now beat yourself up?
Do you scroll on social media and wish you were that person?
Have you been in a season of being ungrateful to God?
Do I need to ask more?
It's sad to say, but it happens to more people than they are willing to admit.
So, I will start by admitting my faults.
I thought I wasn't worthy enough or didn't have what it takes.
I was trying to figure out how in the world this person can do all of this?
But I got in over my head.
I had to hear from someone being real and saying that they do one thing at a time, and by the time we find out about it seems like they are doing a million things.
It appears that they are winning all the time.
People are so quick to share the highlights of their lives, but no one wants to share what they did to get to that place.
I'm here to share the other side of victory. There will be days when you doubt yourself. You will want to throw in the towel.
There are times when you cry yourself to sleep.
You know you have a purpose, and you ask God to give you strength.
God shakes you in the spirit and provokes you to worship and praise Him.
You fast from things that block you from your purpose.
You fast and pray.
You get confirmation from the Lord that He has called you for such a time as this.
You get that unction from the Holy Spirit.
Once this happens, your focus is back on God, and you prepare yourself to do the work of the Lord.
Your gifts will make room for you.
Blessings and favor are on your life, and it becomes surreal.
God blows your mind in more ways than one.
Be blessed and encouraged!
Much love,
Miss Anyta
Encouragement to Press On!
God is speaking :
I have never given you a spirit of fear, but of power and love, and a sound mind. Take time to rest in Me even in the midst of the chaos that goes on around you. You will have distractions, but be mindful of them. Recognize it, rebuke it, and move back into My presence. It will give you rest. It will feel like heaven. You will experience peace like no other. People will be astounded as to how you are keeping it together. Put your flesh under subjection. Ask the Holy Spirit to lead you back into My presence if you feel your flesh rise. Don’t let anything steal your joy.
A Routine That Changes Your Life!
Wanna know the secret to success in God?
Hey beautiful people!
Here are the ways that can get you closer to God and see results in your life and in your spiritual walk:
First things first, get up and worship God:
Seek His Face. No distractions! Find a place where you can close the door and choose God over everything else.
Pour out your heart to Him. The invisible God is the One who sees you. This is basking in the glory of God. Now I don't know how long you plan on worshipping, but give Him his time. You will sense when He wants you to pick up the Bible or grab your phone Bible apps.
Next: Read Scripture
After true worship, this is where you are led to walk in the Scriptures. I like to call it taking a walk with God. You may receive a verse from the Holy Spirit in your worship, or you may hear a portion of a Scripture that you may or may not be familiar with. It's okay to search for it in your Bible app or Google.
Then: Meditate/Reflect
Once reading a passage in Scripture, what stood out for you this time in your worship session? Remember, you are still communing with God at this time. You are more than welcome to have a sticky note handy or a legal pad to refer to when you're ready to journal later.
Afterwards: Pray strategically from God's word.
Now that we know the verse of the day, let's pray to God and use His word to remind Him of what He said. You will get the unction from the Holy Spirit to pray what's on the heart of God. Just speak and allow God to work in you.
Furthermore: Write!
Whew! So much has transpired from this encounter! Do a brain dump. Jot down everything in your journal or writing tablet. Whatever you heard, more than likely it's the voice of God talking back to you. Take heed to that still, small voice. You'll be able to compare voices at the end of all of this.
Side note: Do not miss this step! It's critical. Try not to become distracted. Spiritual warfare (resistance leading you away from God) takes place when you make a conscious decision to seek God.
Next: Be Still.
Yes, you heard me. Stop doing everything! Wait on Him
Be intentional in listening to God's still small voice.
Write down the revelation and instructions if applicable.
Keep that journal or tablet handy. 🙂 Sometimes, He may continue to speak a word or give you a list of Scriptures to refer to. *Remember this is God, so there's no one-size-fits-all in this process of being successful, just obey, and you'll be amazed at what He does.
Lastly, praise and thank God for revealing Himself to you.
Bask in His presence. Be in awe of Him. He is so good to us. Lay at His feet not expecting much in return.
We are so quick to leave the presence of God once we get our breakthrough.
He still wants to commune with us even more! 🙌🏾☺️ Thank Him and acknowledge Him for pouring into you.
This is where you receive the blessing by waiting on the Lord. You wait like you are a waiter.
What is it that you can do for Him in the waiting?
God will specifically show you what you can do. He may give you a scripture, or you may sense in your spirit to do something for someone. Look out for clues and follow the signs. It's like a scavenger hunt in the spiritual realm for God. Jesus is the treasure!
Very simple, but effective
The good thing about this is that it helps you combat mental illness so that you can walk in good mental health.
No more anxiety during this time. You forget your problems because you sought after God.
You walk in confidence and authority in Christ.
It breaks every stronghold one by one when you are consistent with God by fellowshipping with Him daily.
Please make God your top priority and watch Him fight all your battles.
You will experience an encounter with Him like never before. He can be able to use you in mighty ways!
I tried Him, and I know it to be true.
This is the "secret sauce' so to speak.
Don't be deceived by anything else. You don't need anyone but the Lord. Everyone else is secondary because you will see your Maker by yourself in the end.
You must surrender and worship God to expect a bountiful harvest from on High!
I pray that this was helpful for you!
Be sure to follow and subscribe to receive updates on new content!
There are a lot of new things that I will be unveiling in the months to come!
Talk with you soon with all the details!
Let us all finish strong this year!

Knowing it's Time to Reap Your Harvest
The Harvest is the souls who are hungry and thirsty for God.
They've been hurting and crying out in the form of other things manifesting right before our eyes in the news and on social media.
It is up to the watchmen to take up their post and do what the word of God says.
Pray without ceasing.
We are to be the change we wish to see in the world.
It starts with the saints of God to be world changers.
Let's say:
"I am reaping the harvest God promised me. "
"I am taking back everything the devil stole from me one by one and gathering the spoils."
Glory be to God for the victory that we have through Christ Jesus!
Be blessed and stay encouraged.
Love,
Miss Anyta
No More Silence of the Lambs: Taking off the Muzzle
The Kingdom of God and the Kingdom of Darkness are at war with each other. Satan doesn’t want the saints of God testifying about the goodness of God and preaching the good news.
How can one be silent?
Satan wants to silence God’s people at all costs. It can be a distraction where people don’t do what they are called to do in the Kingdom of God.
It could be in the form of sleepiness and drowsiness. The enemy can make you feel so exhausted that all you want to do is sleep. It can also be in the form of having a poverty mindset.
This means that he can make you think that you are never good enough to be successful and create generational wealth for your legacy and for the generations to come after you.
What does silencing look like?
Silencing looks like you don’t know who you are in Christ Jesus; you are not beneficial in the Kingdom of God.
The enemy doesn’t want us to thrive and become leaders. He wants us to be followers of this world and for us to be led astray.
Who are we in the Kingdom?
We are the righteousness of Christ. However, God wants us to impact the Kingdom of God at all costs, and Satan wants us to be influenced by him and his minions.
There are so many distractions that can be disguised as other things; it is ridiculous. It’s disgusting to know that what we count on as something little can actually be something big to throw you off from reaching your destiny.
Can you still reach your destiny?
Now, don’t get me wrong, you are still heading towards your destiny, it may take longer than expected because of the spiritual warfare happening in your life. You may need gentle reminders about what your calling, assignment, and purpose are so you can get back on track.
What are we called to do?
We are called to disciple others and rescue as many believers as possible to create this massive army of the Lord. The enemy doesn’t want us to come together to be all that God has created us to be.
Silencing brings disunity.
This is where you see strife, bloodshed, and division in the body of Christ. People become murderers with their words and slander others through social media and other forms of communication.
Unfortunately, if we are not careful and do not put on the armor of God daily, we will fall victim to being silenced.
My testimony of being silenced.
For many years, I was silenced by not wanting to tell my testimony and help other believers. I had so much to pour out to others, but I got discouraged and distracted along the way. God’s calling on my life was still the same; I just didn’t hear the call through all the noise in my life.
Other ways in life to become silenced.
We can also be silenced by allowing other individuals to speak for us. We weren’t bold enough in Christ to do what He said to do. We can fall into the comparison trap.
Another one is being passive and allowing others to do what God already told you to do. You take it as a pass not to do the will of God. The enemy banks on you doing this because he feels he got another one to work for him.
Knowing who you are plays a big role.
The sad part is when we don’t know our authority in Christ Jesus, the devil can have legal grounds to influence us as long as he can, until we come to our senses.
God is always fighting for us because in the word of God, it states that Jesus is our intercessor. Don’t allow the cares of this world to stop your worship, praising God, and doing what He requires of you.
Be bold and take action!
Take the muzzle off your mouth in the mighty name of Jesus! We don’t have to be yoked again in the bondage of sin. We don’t have to allow the negative thoughts to overtake us in our minds anymore. We can be set free indefinitely. Who the Son sets free is truly free indeed.
God truly loves us, and He will deliver us out of the snares of the enemy. He wants us to fight for our destiny too! It is a battle to face off in the spiritual realm. There are souls at stake, and the Lord is looking for those warriors who will declare, "For God I live, and for God I die!" It is a bold declaration, but it sets you apart from those who have been on the fence about their calling in life.
Confusion is a factor.
Don’t be confused anymore! That’s another tactic. The spirit of confusion comes when you need to have power, love, and a sound mind. Be sober-minded in this season you’re in to accurately hear the Spirit of the living God. He will give you instructions to do His will. You have to sit down and hear from Him. He will give you Scripture and show you signs, symbols, and wonders.
I am a living witness as to how God will move quickly for His people when we have a made-up mind to serve Him and Him only. It pleases the Father to know that we can come to Him boldly and choose life over death. He rewards His sons and daughters greatly when we choose to impact others by spreading the gospel and not being ashamed about it.
That is where the silence occurs because many of us are ashamed of the gospel because of the fear of what others think about us. We must bind that way of thinking up now in the mighty name of Jesus! This is where you get procrastination, and you’ll eventually become paralyzed in your spiritual walk. That’s not the will of God. He wants us to walk rightly with Him and be on fire for the Lord.
We are to be prisoners of hope for the body of Christ and unbelievers.
For us to effectively help the unbelievers, we have to get our fellow brethren out of the spiritual pit so that they can get to the palace.
It’s a rescue mission for those who have awakened and want others to know their position and rank in the army of the Lord.
There truly is an army rising, and it is time to take down the kingdom of darkness! They are already defeated by the power of the blood of Jesus! However, they still think they have authority over God’s people. In some cases, because of ignorance in the body of believers, they actually do.
Rise, people of God!
It’s up to us to rise and get our people out of that grave and breathe life into them. We walk around in the spirit, seeing from the Lord who we need to lend a helping hand to for the day.
It will be life-changing for both of you when you connect and pray. That divine connection is what ignites the fire. It’s exciting, and it’s the gift that keeps on giving.
Take off the muzzle!
It’s time to take that muzzle off and rise, people of God! We need each other to survive! We are stronger in numbers. We are better together, and we must come together to complete the work God has given us for His kingdom to continue to thrive on earth as it is in heaven.
It is a glorious feeling to know that you can save a life by your obedience to God to look for the sheep or that lamb who went astray. They can’t even cry out because their voice is muffled.
Sometimes we don’t even know we cannot speak until it is too late.
I pray that this word would give you the strength to speak what God tells you this hour.
Be blessed and encouraged! 💪🏾😊🙏🏾
It's Time to Sound the Alarm! An Awakening is Taking Place!
Hey, everybody. I come before you as humbly as possible to release this prophetic insight.
God has been trying to tell us all something since 2020.
Truthfully, it was way before that, but a lot of clarity happened during the pandemic.
COVID-19 was supposed to wake many of us up, but we went back to sleep, I'm sorry to say.
Now, God has been raising mighty men and women who will make that Clarion call to warn His people.
Why did I need to stand up?
As a Prophetess, I don't always know "the who" first. I may see something in the spiritual realm, and the Lord will reveal to me a word, a number, a scripture, or a symbol to get my attention.
I may need to pray in the Spirit to get clarity.
What I do know is that God is not pleased with certain groups of people and individuals who claim they love God, but they are far from Him.
I've been studying certain scriptures to gain more insight, and I allow the Holy Spirit to have His way in me and through me.
It's scary from a fleshly perspective to sound these alarms, but I learned that if I don't, the blood will be on my hands. Ezekiel 33
I have to answer to God about it.
Go to the Word of God to get your keys!
Love you,
Minister Anyta
Living Worthy, Leading Whole
Mounting up with wings like eagles (Isaiah 40:31)
For years, I lived in fragments.
Pieces of me were shaped by survival—by expectations, by silence, by the need to be strong even when I felt anything but. I wore roles like armor: teacher, leader, helper, fixer. But beneath it all, I was asking a question I didn’t know how to voice:
Who am I, really?
The journey to wholeness didn’t begin with answers. It began with grief.
With letting go of identities that were handed to me but never truly mine.
With sitting in the quiet and listening—not to the world, but to the whisper of my own soul.
I had to unlearn the belief that worth was something earned.
I had to confront the stories I’d internalized—about power, about womanhood, about being “too much” or “not enough.”
I had to find the courage to stop performing and start becoming.
Healing wasn’t linear. It was messy, sacred, and deeply personal.
It came through writing, through teaching, through community.
It came through moments of solitude and through the voices of women who reminded me: 'You are not alone.'
And slowly, I began to live worthy.
Not because I had arrived, but because I chose to show up—whole, imperfect, and true.
Living Worthy, Leading Whole is the course I wish I’d had when I was searching for myself.
It’s a space for women who are ready to reclaim their voice, rewrite their story, and lead from a place of emotional truth.
It’s not about perfection—it’s about presence.
It’s not about power—it’s about purpose.
If you’re reading this and something stirs in you, I invite you to join me.
Not just in a class, but in a movement.
A rising.
A return.
You are worthy.
You are whole.
You are ready.
-Miss Anyta

Pondering the Fact that History will be made once again
Why do I sense that Trump will be President for a second term?
I was led back in the summer to do a quick video while I was going on a walk. Mind you, I ain’t thinking about Donald Trump and he ain’t thinking about me. At least I hope not. I digress. So I was thinking it was a joke when I said it. I said, it was a dark and stormy night, Trump got re-elected. I was very sober-minded because I was speaking matter-of-factly.
It will be a toss-up of emotions that will surface because many will be shocked and pissed off in November.
Many thought when Biden won four years ago that they wouldn’t have to deal with Trump anymore. You can’t ignore him. He is on assignment. He will be a man about his business. So if he doesn't win, you'll see him again.
It doesn’t matter who tried to take him out. The weapons that were formed didn’t prosper or succeed. It was a warning shot to Trump to get his act together.
God sees past Trump's faults and personality traits. He sees a very influential man who can sway people’s decisions. He has power, and God wants him to use it for good rather than evil.
Everyone gets gifts that are without repentance. I can’t be mad at Trump. Trump is who he is. God will still use him to bring out what needs to happen on this earth through a sick and twisted individual.
People are praying for him and against him.
Why would I question God’s sovereignty?
He knows exactly what He is doing, and I will be a messenger. In any event, Trump won’t win by a landslide, of course, because the country is divided.
I believe Kamala Harris and Tim Walz will be heartbroken and shocked. I am praying for her because of the power and high level of influence that she carries. She uses it for evil and an agenda that none of us are ready for.
They wanted the wars to happen, whether you believe that statement or not. I don’t care what she says on these propaganda videos and when she is live at rallies. It is not the truth. It is a bait and switch. This is literally what happened when Biden suddenly dropped out of the race.
Everything was strategic.
Don’t get it twisted. This has all been planned since day one. Don’t get deceived this hour. Hear me by the word of the Lord. You will need a strong God who is a Strong Tower that we will run to in a place of safety.
Read the entire 91st Psalm
We must seek God’s face like never before and ask for a strategy. This is why you see many people going to Washington, D.C., and praying in large gatherings. It’s better late than never. We should have been gathering like this years ago and months ago. However, I won’t cry over spilled milk. You can build your altar right where you are.
You don’t need to travel to the White House to ask God to change the hearts of men. You can go to your prayer closet and seek God’s face now. There is no distance in prayer.
Now I'll say this:
If I'm wrong about what was shown to me, then it's even more of a reason to pray because the antichrist is back once again and is showing up in almost every state. But this is what America wants. God will give the majority what they want.
I trust in God, and I will back what He tells me to say and how to pray.
Congrats to the next President of the United States.
I was led to pray for Kamala Harris and her family because she's not exempt from assassination attempts. I pray she's ready to take over a nation divided. Personally, I just have to pray against wickedness and evil in high places. I've made my peace with the outcome.
Many people believe Harris will win.
Okay cool. It doesn't matter what I think happens in the election anyway. What matters is how we respond as a body of Christ. The days to come will be chaotic, to say the least. Someone will be angry with the decision.
Be vigilant this hour for the state of the nation!
If the blood of Jesus covers you he will protect you from calamity. He will protect you from the repercussions of the laws being implemented.
Love you,
Minister Anyta
Are You Prepared for What's Coming to Our Nation and Surrounding Nations?
Word of the Lord:
I heard BRACE, BRACE, BRACE for what is coming to our nation and surrounding nations.
What I saw in Israel in 2023 is nothing compared to the judgment God has for those who are wicked in high places.
I am standing on the word of God and NOT my vain imagination.
This word came to me in October 2023, but at the same time, it is needed for this season.
People will know that you are the Lord Most High.
People will declare the name of the Lord because you are a strong tower. The righteous run in and they are safe (from harm).
Psalm 91 is very much needed at this hour.
1 Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High
will rest in the shadow of the Almighty.
2 I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress,
my God, in whom I trust.”
3 Surely he will save you
from the fowler’s snare
and from the deadly pestilence.
4 He will cover you with his feathers,
and under his wings, you will find refuge;
his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart.
5 You will not fear the terror of night,
nor the arrow that flies by day,
6 nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness,
nor the plague that destroys at midday.
7 A thousand may fall at your side,
ten thousand at your right hand,
but it will not come near you.
8 You will only observe with your eyes
and see the punishment of the wicked.
9 If you say, “The Lord is my refuge,”
and you make the Most High your dwelling,
10 no harm will overtake you,
no disaster will come near your tent.
11 For he will command his angels concerning you
to guard you in all your ways;
12 they will lift you up in their hands,
so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.
13 You will tread on the lion and the cobra;
you will trample the great lion and the serpent.
14 “Because he loves me,” says the Lord, “I will rescue him;
I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name.
15 He will call on me, and I will answer him;
I will be with him in trouble,
I will deliver him and honor him.
16 With long life I will satisfy him
and show him my salvation.”
From my journal:
Lord, I know I can’t keep running.
Because it is what Jeremiah said, your word is like fire shut up in my bones.
I cannot run from my calling and destiny.
This is not the time or the place to do that.
Get in line!
Formation starts with us in the Kingdom of God.
Assemble!
The army of the lord is getting strengthened.
We are mighty in battle because of you.
Thank you, Lord, for awakening your people.
Thank you for bringing the souls in to pray and seek your face.
If we have to bring in ex-gang members, ex-drug dealers, former prostitutes, former killers, former rapists, or whoever was ostracized and pushed to the side for your glory to occur, so be it.
The first will be last, and the last shall be first.
God, I see you flipping the script, so to speak.
You have not fully played your hand yet—your right hand [you have rendered judgment in these heavenly cases]. You are calling out certain individuals to do your work.
These are the ones who have been equipped to do the work of an evangelist, teacher, pastor, apostle, and prophet. The five-fold ministry will collide, and unlikely forces will unite to defeat a common enemy.
God, it’s about to go down with just one touch of your finger. You are about to turn the world upside down! We must send warnings before destruction so that, as the watchmen on the tower, we don't have blood on our hands. We can see from afar the enemy.
We have a vantage point to ring the alarm so people can run to the ark of safety. Thank you Holy Spirit.
You Have Given Your People Superpowers!
There is a new perspective on this verse: The scripture in Matthew 11:5 says, “The blind receive sight, the lame walk, those who have leprosy are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, and the good news is proclaimed to the poor(in spirit)." Jesus speaks of His mission.
This mission hasn’t changed. He paved the way for us to do it and do greater exploits.
Come on, Holy Spirit!
Daniel 11:32 says, “Those who know their God shall be strong, and carry out great exploits.
We are the called-out ones.
We stand out on purpose.
We were the “black sheep” on purpose.
We were never made to blend in.
We go against the grain.
We swim upstream or against the current.
The Scripture in John 14:12 says, “ Truly, truly I say to you, whoever believes in Me will also do the works that I do; and greater works than these will he do because I am going to the Father. [This verse is enlightened]
Acceleration happens this season!
Quantum leaps happen.
It is the changing of the guard—tables are being turned.
Psalm 23 will be fulfilled in its entirety and shown on display.
A psalm of David.
1 The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing.
2 He makes me lie down in green pastures,
He leads me beside quiet waters,
3 he refreshes my soul.
He guides me along the right paths
for his name’s sake.
4 Even though I walk
through the darkest valley,[a]
I will fear no evil,
for you are with me;
your rod and your staff,
they comfort me.
5 You prepare a table before me
in the presence of my enemies.
You anoint my head with oil;
my cup overflows.
6 Surely your goodness and love will follow me
all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.

God’s Glory Departs From the Temple
10 I looked, and I saw the likeness of a throne of lapis lazuli above the vault that was over the heads of the cherubim. 2 The Lord said to the man clothed in linen, “Go in among the wheels beneath the cherubim. Fill your hands with burning coals from among the cherubim and scatter them over the city.” And as I watched, he went in.
3 Now the cherubim were standing on the south side of the temple when the man went in, and a cloud filled the inner court. 4 Then the glory of the Lord rose from above the cherubim and moved to the threshold of the temple. The cloud filled the temple, and the court was full of the radiance of the glory of the Lord. 5 The sound of the wings of the cherubim could be heard as far away as the outer court, like the voice of God Almighty [a] when he speaks.
6 When the Lord commanded the man in linen, “Take fire from among the wheels, from among the cherubim,” the man went in and stood beside a wheel. 7 Then one of the cherubim reached out his hand to the fire that was among them. He took up some of it and put it into the hands of the man in linen, who took it and went out. 8 (Under the wings of the cherubim could be seen what looked like human hands.)
9 I looked, and I saw beside the cherubim four wheels, one beside each of the cherubim; the wheels sparkled like topaz. 10 As for their appearance, the four of them looked alike; each was like a wheel intersecting a wheel. 11 As they moved, they would go in any one of the four directions the cherubim faced; the wheels did not turn about[b] as the cherubim went. The cherubim went in whatever direction the head faced, without turning as they went. 12 Their entire bodies, including their backs, their hands, and their wings, were completely full of eyes, as were their four wheels. 13 I heard the wheels being called “the whirling wheels.” 14 Each of the cherubim had four faces: One face was that of a cherub, the second the face of a human being, the third the face of a lion, and the fourth the face of an eagle. 15 Then the cherubim rose upward. These were the living creatures I had seen by the Kebar River. 16 When the cherubim moved, the wheels beside them moved; and when the cherubim spread their wings to rise from the ground, the wheels did not leave their side. 17 When the cherubim stood still, they also stood still; and when the cherubim rose, they rose with them, because the spirit of the living creatures was in them.
18 Then the glory of the Lord departed from over the threshold of the temple and stopped above the cherubim. 19 While I watched, the cherubim spread their wings and rose from the ground, and as they went, the wheels went with them. They stopped at the entrance of the east gate of the Lord’s house, and the glory of the God of Israel was above them.
20 These were the living creatures I had seen beneath the God of Israel by the Kebar River, and I realized that they were cherubim. 21 Each had four faces and four wings, and under their wings were what looked like human hands. 22 Their faces had the same appearance as those I had seen by the Kebar River. Each one went straight ahead.

Ezekiel 15:8
Jerusalem as a Useless Vine
15 The word of the Lord came to me: 2 “Son of man, how is the wood of a vine different from that of a branch from any of the trees in the forest? 3 Is wood ever taken from it to make anything useful? Do they make pegs from it to hang things on? 4 And after it is thrown on the fire as fuel and the fire burns both ends and chars the middle, is it then useful for anything? 5 If it was not useful for anything when it was whole, how much less can it be made into something useful when the fire has burned it and it is charred? 6 “Therefore this is what the Sovereign Lord says: As I have given the wood of the vine among the trees of the forest as fuel for the fire, so will I treat the people living in Jerusalem. 7 I will set my face against them. Although they have come out of the fire, the fire will yet consume them. And when I set my face against them, you will know that I am the Lord. 8 I will make the land desolate because they have been unfaithful, declares the Sovereign Lord.”

Ezekiel 16:17: You also took the fine jewelry I gave you, the jewelry made of my gold and silver, and you made for yourself male idols and engaged in prostitution with them.
Jerusalem as an Adulterous Wife
16 The word of the Lord came to me: 2 “Son of man, confront Jerusalem with her detestable practices 3 and say, ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says to Jerusalem: Your ancestry and birth were in the land of the Canaanites; your father was an Amorite and your mother a Hittite. 4 On the day you were born your cord was not cut, nor were you washed with water to make you clean, nor were you rubbed with salt or wrapped in cloths. 5 No one looked on you with pity or had compassion enough to do any of these things for you. Rather, you were thrown out into the open field, for on the day you were born you were despised.
6 “‘Then I passed by and saw you kicking about in your blood, and as you lay there in your blood I said to you, “Live!”[a] 7 I made you grow like a plant of the field. You grew and developed and entered puberty. Your breasts had formed and your hair had grown, yet you were stark naked.
8 “‘Later I passed by, and when I looked at you and saw that you were old enough for love, I spread the corner of my garment over you and covered your naked body. I gave you my solemn oath and entered into a covenant with you, declares the Sovereign Lord, and you became mine.
9 “‘I bathed you with water and washed the blood from you and put ointments on you. 10 I clothed you with an embroidered dress and put sandals of fine leather on you. I dressed you in fine linen and covered you with costly garments. 11 I adorned you with jewelry: I put bracelets on your arms and a necklace around your neck, 12 and I put a ring on your nose, earrings on your ears and a beautiful crown on your head. 13 So you were adorned with gold and silver; your clothes were of fine linen and costly fabric and embroidered cloth. Your food was honey, olive oil, and the finest flour. You became very beautiful and rose to be a queen. 14 And your fame spread among the nations on account of your beauty, because the splendor I had given you made your beauty perfect, declares the Sovereign Lord.
15 “‘But you trusted in your beauty and used your fame to become a prostitute. You lavished your favors on anyone who passed by and your beauty became his. 16 You took some of your garments to make gaudy high places, where you carried on your prostitution. You went to him, and he possessed your beauty.[b] 17 You also took the fine jewelry I gave you, the jewelry made of my gold and silver, and you made for yourself male idols and engaged in prostitution with them. 18 And you took your embroidered clothes to put on them, and you offered my oil and incense before them. 19 Also the food I provided for you—the flour, olive oil, and honey I gave you to eat—you offered as fragrant incense before them. That is what happened, declares the Sovereign Lord.
20 “‘And you took your sons and daughters whom you bore to me and sacrificed them as food to the idols. Was your prostitution not enough? 21 You slaughtered my children and sacrificed them to the idols. 22 In all your detestable practices and your prostitution you did not remember the days of your youth, when you were naked and bare, kicking about in your blood.
23 “‘Woe! Woe to you, declares the Sovereign Lord. In addition to all your other wickedness, 24 you built a mound for yourself and made a lofty shrine in every public square. 25 At every street corner you built your lofty shrines and degraded your beauty, spreading your legs with increasing promiscuity to anyone who passed by. 26 You engaged in prostitution with the Egyptians, your neighbors with large genitals, and aroused my anger with your increasing promiscuity. 27 So I stretched out my hand against you and reduced your territory; I gave you over to the greed of your enemies, the daughters of the Philistines, who were shocked by your lewd conduct. 28 You engaged in prostitution with the Assyrians too, because you were insatiable; and even after that, you still were not satisfied. 29 Then you increased your promiscuity to include Babylonia,[c] a land of merchants, but even with this you were not satisfied.
30 “‘I am filled with fury against you,[d] declares the Sovereign Lord, when you do all these things, acting like a brazen prostitute! 31 When you built your mounds at every street corner and made your lofty shrines in every public square, you were unlike a prostitute, because you scorned payment.
32 “‘You adulterous wife! You prefer strangers to your own husband! 33 All prostitutes receive gifts, but you give gifts to all your lovers, bribing them to come to you from everywhere for your illicit favors. 34 So in your prostitution you are the opposite of others; no one runs after you for your favors. You are the very opposite, for you give payment and none is given to you.
35 “‘Therefore, you prostitute, hear the word of the Lord! 36 This is what the Sovereign Lord says: Because you poured out your lust and exposed your naked body in your promiscuity with your lovers, and because of all your detestable idols, and because you gave them your children’s blood, 37 therefore I am going to gather all your lovers, with whom you found pleasure, those you loved as well as those you hated. I will gather them against you from all around and will strip you in front of them, and they will see you stark naked. 38 I will sentence you to the punishment of women who commit adultery and who shed blood; I will bring on you the blood vengeance of my wrath and jealous anger. 39 Then I will deliver you into the hands of your lovers, and they will tear down your mounds and destroy your lofty shrines. They will strip you of your clothes and take your fine jewelry and leave you stark naked. 40 They will bring a mob against you, who will stone you and hack you to pieces with their swords. 41 They will burn down your houses and inflict punishment on you in the sight of many women. I will put a stop to your prostitution, and you will no longer pay your lovers. 42 Then my wrath against you will subside and my jealous anger will turn away from you; I will be calm and no longer angry.
43 “‘Because you did not remember the days of your youth but enraged me with all these things, I will surely bring down on your head what you have done, declares the Sovereign Lord. Did you not add lewdness to all your other detestable practices?
44 “‘Everyone who quotes proverbs will quote this proverb about you: “Like mother, like daughter.” 45 You are a true daughter of your mother, who despised her husband and her children; and you are a true sister of your sisters, who despised their husbands and their children. Your mother was a Hittite and your father an Amorite. 46 Your older sister was Samaria, who lived to the north of you with her daughters; and your younger sister, who lived to the south of you with her daughters, was Sodom. 47 You not only followed their ways and copied their detestable practices, but in all your ways you soon became more depraved than they. 48 As surely as I live, declares the Sovereign Lord, your sister Sodom and her daughters never did what you and your daughters have done.
49 “‘Now this was the sin of your sister Sodom: She and her daughters were arrogant, overfed and unconcerned; they did not help the poor and needy. 50 They were haughty and did detestable things before me. Therefore I did away with them as you have seen. 51 Samaria did not commit half the sins you did. You have done more detestable things than they, and have made your sisters seem righteous by all these things you have done. 52 Bear your disgrace, for you have furnished some justification for your sisters. Because your sins were more vile than theirs, they appear more righteous than you. So then, be ashamed and bear your disgrace, for you have made your sisters appear righteous.
53 “‘However, I will restore the fortunes of Sodom and her daughters and of Samaria and her daughters, and your fortunes along with them, 54 so that you may bear your disgrace and be ashamed of all you have done in giving them comfort. 55 And your sisters, Sodom with her daughters and Samaria with her daughters, will return to what they were before; and you and your daughters will return to what you were before. 56 You would not even mention your sister Sodom in the day of your pride, 57 before your wickedness was uncovered. Even so, you are now scorned by the daughters of Edom[e] and all her neighbors and the daughters of the Philistines—all those around you who despise you. 58 You will bear the consequences of your lewdness and your detestable practices, declares the Lord.
59 “‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: I will deal with you as you deserve, because you have despised my oath by breaking the covenant. 60 Yet I will remember the covenant I made with you in the days of your youth, and I will establish an everlasting covenant with you. 61 Then you will remember your ways and be ashamed when you receive your sisters, both those who are older than you and those who are younger. I will give them to you as daughters, but not on the basis of my covenant with you. 62 So I will establish my covenant with you, and you will know that I am the Lord. 63 Then, when I make atonement for you for all you have done, you will remember and be ashamed and never again open your mouth because of your humiliation, declares the Sovereign Lord.’”

Being Watchful This Hour
Let's get into this exhortation, amen!
Lord, you are always here with your people. You are coming for your sons and daughters one by one. The enemy is doing the same. However, the devil can only go after what You have allowed him to go after. A lot of times, saints of God forget this Lord. Please show us the way.
When God uses us for His glory, it should be considered joy. I know it doesn’t feel right while it is happening, but the result is joy and peace. He will have you crying one moment and laughing the next. My God does work things out in mysterious ways. I stopped questioning His sovereignty. I knew He would do just what His word said. He would go above and beyond it.
That said, be mindful of who God is during this time. Get intimate with God. Allow the Holy Spirit to truly rule and reign in your life like never before. The Lord is speaking to his people. Please pay close attention because it will save your life.
You are covered under the blood of Jesus. However, the enemy is trying to go after your seed. He will try your children if he knows he can’t get to you anymore. He will try your spouse, family members, or whoever is in your intimate circle of trust to throw you off track. You start to focus on their issues and not on how big your God is. We all have fallen victim to it. No judgment, no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.
It will cost you something if you want to go higher in Christ. I know salvation is free, but I’m talking about relationships. People who you thought would be there for you and with you until the end will not. Brace yourself for betrayal and heartache. God will mend your broken heart. He doesn’t want anyone or anything to take His place. So, He will remove them from His way to fulfill His purpose for your life. It sounds crazy, but it is true.
I used to cry to God about when a certain individual left, but He was preparing me for something greater. That person couldn’t go on this journey the Lord had me on. That goes the same for you. Don’t ask God why anymore. Ask, why not me, God? You will start seeing things turn around for the better. Miracles, signs, and wonders will follow you. Goodness and mercy will be there every step of the way. His grace is sufficient for you.
Trust and believe in the one true and living God. He never fails. Watch the tactics and tricks that Satan and his minions may pull this hour. Don’t find any of it strange. Go to God in prayer with the answer. It is found in His word. The Holy Spirit will lead and guide you into all truth.
Praise God!
Be blessed and encouraged!
Love, Minister Anyta
Exploring The Ruth Experience: Lessons in Loyalty, Courage, and Faith
How can the life of Ruth empower us as women of faith today?
The life of Ruth in the Bible is such a life-changing story for me.
I don't know about you, but I can relate to Ruth's persistence to be under the wing of her mother-in-law.
She knew the consequences it would entail.
I appreciated Naomi's honesty as she was grieving. She had a crossroads moment with both her daughters.
We know little about Orpah. She chose to return to what she knew, and her story is not chronicled in the Bible.
That speaks volumes about who wrote the book of Ruth as well. Where one person's story ends, another's begins.
I gathered this from the book of Ruth: New Beginnings. Everything she experienced was new for her and her mother-in-law.
She was determined to stay with Naomi and follow her ways of life, which showed me where Ruth's heart was positioned.
There are so many takeaways from Ruth's story.
We can all agree on how humble she was during the entire process of starting over and not having much.
She humbled me in my own life. I had to repent to God about how I viewed my life. Ruth saw the blessing in a messed-up situation.
She didn't let her life as a widow be in vain. Being a widow at that time automatically put you under financial strain.
From a practical perspective, Naomi's suggestion that the women wait for her to have new sons and marry them later was impossible.
Ruth didn't let that stop her from staying with Naomi through the thick of it. She didn't care what it cost her.
How many of you would take the route Ruth did?
Naomi's effect on Ruth made her okay with giving up her old way of life to seek something new.
She couldn't have known that her decision would change her lineage. But it did.
She was obedient and listened to Naomi's sound advice about Boaz when she was gleaning the fields.
Ruth had favor wherever she went. Her kindness and humility spread like wildfire.
Boaz knew about her and her situation before she was formally introduced. In this case, good news travels fast!
Hallelujah to God for a turnaround!
One brave decision on Ruth's account gave her redemption for her entire family. We all appreciate the ending, right?
What about the process before, though? That's where empowerment occurs.
There was a timeline for Ruth to become Boaz's wife. He made some power moves of his own to become the kinsman redeemer.
The ultimate message of this beautiful story is the love of God throughout this book.
So many sacrifices were made to get from point A to point B.
Listening to and trusting the people in your life is a great lesson, too.
Ruth was smart enough to know that she didn't have all the answers, but she was inclined to gain knowledge through Naomi.
She adapted her ways and took on her belief in God. Deep down, she knew that the life she used to live wasn't giving her life.
She took a chance on love. Way before Boaz shows up. That's amazing how far our love can go for one another when God softens our hearts to lay down our lives for a friend.
Ruth and Naomi became great friends, too, even though they were family through marriage.
Many women don't have that dynamic with their mothers, let alone their mother-in-law.
I appreciated the love and kindness shown by this dynamic duo. Ruth loved her anyway, despite her negativity about the tragic situation with her husband and sons.
One daughter stayed, and the other didn't. The one that didn't was sorrowful, but it wasn't enough to change her mind about returning to what she knew.
Familiarity breeds contempt. I'm glad Ruth chose to stay even when persuaded to go. She knew something better was waiting. She walked by faith in Naomi's God, which tells me that Naomi instilled truths into her daughters and sons.
The book of Ruth contains much to consider, and I pray that the Holy Spirit will reveal some truths that will help you on your journey to unfamiliar places.
Naomi went back home while Ruth tried something new. It's hard returning to a place you thought would be different, but life took so much away.
Only by trusting God can you go back anywhere full when you believe you're empty.
Get filled with the Holy Spirit to lead and guide you. He orders our steps whether we believe it or not.
Prophetic insight for us as believers
God is about to do a new thing and show His glory for all the world to see
No one will deny who He is and His power anymore.
Miracles, signs, and wonders are intensifying in the world throughout all the lands
God will be in your neighborhood, on your street, on your porch, in your home, and even in your bedroom.
Nothing will be hidden from Him this hour.
He is calling His people to take their rightful place in the kingdom of God and rise!
There is an army rising! This is for us to break the chains of bondage and set the captives free! Hallelujah to God!
People will be able to see in the spiritual realm who weren’t able to before.
People will dream dreams and see visions at night and in the day.
The Lord is handling the church first because the bride of Christ is without spot, wrinkle, or blemish.
The bridegroom is ready for His bride.
Since Jesus has already come back, He is coming to us individually.
This is the great awakening!
The Holy Spirit is revealing who He is to the true saints of God.
You will be marked with your stamp; you are sealed with approval that you are one of His.
There will be no denying this in the days to come.
Others will be marked that they are not His. It's already been established before the foundations of this world were formed.
There will be visitations and encounters where God will show His people how much He loves them.
Expect the Unexpected!
You will feel the glory of God this hour!
God also softened the hearts of men who had the spirit of Pharaoh.
We, as messengers, are called to say, "Let my people go!"
This is a clarion call for the "watchmen on the tower" to be on post.
This season, you will know your specific prayer watch for the day or the night.
You will know your shift because God wakes you up at a particular hour.
If it is during the day, you will get an unction from the Holy Spirit to pray at that time block.
Know your assignment this hour.
Stay in your lane to press toward the mark of a higher calling.
There is a distinction between the "sheep" and the "goats".
God will reveal who is who by separating them spiritually.
He will give people time to repent through His lovingkindness.
He will protect you this hour for the things to come, but you will experience spiritual warfare like no other. Do not find it strange.
God needs to chastise those He loves.
However, God will also give people over to their debased minds if they choose death over life after experiencing an encounter with Him.
The time is critical, and since this is a spiritual triage, all hands are on deck!
This is not the time to sit and watch; you are to get your "head in the game."
It is Go time!
No more thinking if God is trying to tell you something. He is, so pay close attention, write it down, and stay vigilant!
God loves us so much that He wants to show unbelievers that there is power in the name of Jesus!
People’s transformed lives will be a testament to their faithfulness to God.
You will be crowned with glory and honor from on High through your obedience!
God loves us, and there is a judgment in our favor for those who have been faithful to Him throughout the years.
However, the first will be last, and the last will be first.
This is the year of the people who were counted out, picked last, the underdogs, the orphans nobody wanted, and people who were pushed aside.
God is picking you up and putting you out there for the world to see that He has anointed you, and you didn’t do it alone.
People who have lived in the back will sit in the front to be honored and celebrated right in the presence of their enemies.
It will be a spectacle to see how the tables turned.
God is the one doing this, not you, so stay humble during this process and have God fight on your behalf.
Do your part and praise Him for the victory that is already won!
May the readers of this be hearers and doers of this word.
Scripture references that back this prophetic word can be found in:
Matthew 21:21; Proverbs 6:9; Ezekiel 1: 8-9, 17; Proverbs 19:11; Ephesians 6:16-19(c.f. verses 6:10-15); Mark 11:9-10; John 18:19-21; Revelation 2:11; Revelation 16:15-16; Jeremiah 11:11; Ezekiel 19:9-14; Isaiah 59:10-11, 14-21; 1 Corinthians 14:17.
Prophetic word: Wake up from your sleep!
Honey, wake up from your sleep!
I heard the Lord telling me to wake up from my slumber.
I was in a spiritual coma and needed to be awakened.
I have so much to be grateful for.
For starters, I was in a pandemic, but by the grace of God, I never succumbed to anything, and neither did my family.
I do not take that lightly.
God has put a hedge of protection around us for us to share our testimony.
Don’t think that I haven’t suffered loss or had any pain.
Last year prepared me for this year.
I had to lean on the unchanging hand of God and follow Him wherever.
He took me to another city and state where I truly had to trust God in the process.
I had to be obedient, and I took the opportunity that was presented to me.
But before that happened, I prayed, worshipped, and praised the Lord God Almighty.
I even battled with some heart issues when it came to giving my time, talent, and treasures.
I had to stop comparing my life with others.
I had to truly be happy for others and pray for them.
Walking with the Lord isn’t always a cakewalk, but I wouldn’t trade it for anything in the world.
It was time for me to arise and not look back.
I just needed to learn where I came from and how God pulled me out.
He woke me up from my physical and spiritual slumber.
It’s easy to fall victim to it.
I went from doing too much to not reaching my potential and doing the bare minimum.
With that being said, I would like to encourage you.
Today is another day of salvation and grace from God.
He has given us this present of today and has called us to new beginnings.
Also, he has called us higher for those who love Him and are called according to His purpose.
If you don’t understand what I mean by being in spiritual slumber, you are probably still asleep.
I pray that the Lord wakes you up as well.
We can get so consumed by the cares of this world that we take our focus from the one who created the world and everything in it.
Take the time to thank God for His grace and His mercy.
I am grateful that He keeps giving me brand new mercies with the rising of the sun and the going down of the same.
