He is saying, as He said to David, ‘ I took you from the sheepfold, from the pastures, where I’ve trained and equipped you, training your ears to hear My Voice and your hands to make war. For there you’ve had to face the bear, the Goliath and the lion. Opposition, accusation, lack, criticism, judgement, oppression, restriction have all been part of your training for reigning. As I have prepared David, so I have prepared you to step into a place of kingship and authority where you will execute My Justice and Truth, establishing Kingdom Nations within the earth. For I am shaking and shifting even the demographics of society. My Hand is at work and you are in the center of My workings.
My precious ones, I am speaking comfort to you today. I am with you, and as you continue to trust in Me with all of your hearts, rejecting all fear and torment the enemy would try and put on you, being strengthened by My Might, I will build you a house by My Spirit that will cause you to flourish, prosper, and be established by the Lord, Himself. For the house I will build you will be one that will bless and uplift those around you. Your house will be a place of gathering and a place of harvest. It will be a place of fulness and overflowing supplies. For that which you’ve lacked in, in past seasons, you will abound in! That which the enemy used to smear guilt and shame on you, the accusations and roars set against you, will become your testimony of freedom and deliverance, cutting loose those who are oppressed! For I am your Defender and your Vindicator. Every word spoken against you in judgement, I will show to be in the wrong. I am vindicating, restoring, and comforting My People.
Let My Healing Waters flow over you. Come and rest in My Presence and let Me recharge you by My Power and My Fire. Let praise go before you, and remain in the Secret Place of Zion at all times. Receive your battle strategies from Me, be bold and very courageous, and know, that as you confront the enemy, I will give you victory on every side, and will subdue all your enemies.
I will build you a house and the generations of the earth will be blessed through you. For My Apostolic Pioneers are causing a reset and a rebirth within the nations, as they co-labour with My Spirit in the establishment and building of Sheep Nations.’
1 Chronicles 17:7-15
7 Now, therefore, thus shall you say to my servant David, ‘Thus says the LORD of hosts, I took you from the pasture, from following the sheep, to be prince over my people Israel, 8 and I have been with you wherever you have gone and have cut off all your enemies from before you. And I will make for you a name, like the name of the great ones of the earth. 9 And I will appoint a place for my people Israel and will plant them, that they may dwell in their own place and be disturbed no more. And violent men shall waste them no more, as formerly, 10 from the time that I appointed judges over my people Israel. And I will subdue all your enemies. Moreover, I declare to you that the LORD will build you a house. 11 When your days are fulfilled to walk with your fathers, I will raise up your offspring after you, one of your own sons, and I will establish his kingdom. 12 He shall build a house for me, and I will establish his throne forever. 13 I will be to him a father, and he shall be to me a son. I will not take my steadfast love from him, as I took it from him who was before you, 14 but I will confirm him in my house and in my kingdom forever, and his throne shall be established forever.’” 15 In accordance with all these words, and in accordance with all this vision, Nathan spoke to David.
1 Samuel 17:34-37
34 But David said to Saul, “Your servant used to keep sheep for his father. And when there came a lion, or a bear, and took a lamb from the flock, 35 I went after him and struck him and delivered it out of his mouth. And if he arose against me, I caught him by his beard and struck him and killed him. 36 Your servant has struck down both lions and bears, and this uncircumcised Philistine shall be like one of them, for he has defied the armies of the living God.” 37 And David said, “The LORD who delivered me from the paw of the lion and from the paw of the bear will deliver me from the hand of this Philistine.” And Saul said to David, “Go, and the LORD be with you!”
