“2024 — A Year of Supernatural Ministry”
“Who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from this present evil world, according to the will of God and our Father.”
— Galatians 1:4 (KJV)
Whatever evil is moving into the land, it will take the supernatural to outrun and outmaneuver it.
The cure is supernatural praying, ministry, and manifestations.
The Time of Thy Visitation
No era will rise above or move beyond the ministers who are in it.
Sheep will not go where the shepherd has not led them.
It’s a design of God that you hook up with people who are more skilled in certain things of the Spirit than you are. As you follow their lead, you will move out into those things.
And when he was come near, he beheld the city, and wept over it, Saying, If thou hadst known, even thou, at least in this thy day, the things which belong unto thy peace! but now they are hid from thine eyes…because thou knewest not the time of thy visitation.
Luke 19:41,44 (KJV)
Ministers are used to distribute or dispense the plan of God in any era.
Visitations from God come through people.
Revivals don’t just drop out of Heaven. He sends a person to be the vehicle.
Your pastor is a visitation—whether you honor him or her as such or not. He or she carries a move of God for you.
Phillip preached to the people of Samaria, but in order for the people to take the leap into a greater dimension of the things of the Spirit (the baptism in the Holy Ghost), God sent Peter and John (see Acts 8:5-17).
Peter and John brought with them a dimension of the Spirit that the people of Samaria would not have experienced had Peter and John not been sent.
Ministers carry the plan of God for an era.
Ministers of an era distribute God’s plan to the people of that era.
Ministers interpret the mind, intentions, and oracles of God for an era.
And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ.
Ephesians 4:11-12 (KJV)
Sometimes we don’t rightfully divide the Word of truth, wrongfully giving more emphasis to certain things over others and failing to embrace the whole council of God’s Word.
He sends apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, and teachers to bring balance to the Body of Christ.
When your pastor is ministering to you by prophesy, exhortation, or impartation, it is God loving and leading you.
The devil would seek to bring all types of offense and strife with the God-sent vehicle of visitation and answers.
It is necessary to be aggressive in your approach to protecting and preserving the relationships God has designed to be a vehicle of answers to you.
If there is a ministry God has connected you to—and you place value on it—make sure you show up.
These ministers and ministries create space for people to receive from God.
There are some things you’ll receive by simply showing up.
Stay in proximity of your answer and don’t allow an insatiable need for attention and special treatment sabotage you.
Learn to honor the visitations that are being sent to you, so you don’t miss your help, answers, and divine assistance.
That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher? And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!
Romans 10:9-15 (KJV)
The preacher must be sent.
In being sent, He must preach.
Because of the preaching, the people will believe.
And in the believing they will be saved.
Pray Ye Therefore
God will cause these ministers to emerge, and they will carry messages, assignments, and oracles from the Lord for that specific era.
And Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease among the people. But when he saw the multitudes, he was moved with compassion on them, because they fainted, and were scattered abroad, as sheep having no shepherd. Then saith he unto his disciples, The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few; Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his harvest.
Matthew 9:35-38 (KJV)
The instruction is to pray.
Jesus saw among the multitude a vacancy of leadership that looked like Him.
Jesus was teaching, preaching, and healing. The leadership at the time was not.
Pray that the Father, the Lord of the harvest, will send forth skilled laborers who will pattern their laboring after Jesus’ laboring—teaching, preaching, and healing.
As a minister, the yardstick by which to measure your ministry is teaching, preaching, and healing.
Prayer is the trigger.
To Ministers:
“It’s time for ministers in this era—that have been sent to this era—to emerge and be heard.…”
“The strength of the ministry that God gave you is not in your clichés or your ability to mimic what someone else is doing. The strength is found in giving the words He gave you. The strength of the ministry God has given you is found in you bringing Heaven’s words to the people He sent you to. And the moment you recommit to that commission—the moment you recommit to the assignment He gave you in the beginning—is the moment He will launch you. But you’ve got to rediscover the assignment….”
You don’t set the pace for ministry—God does.

“2024 — A Year of Supernatural Ministry (2)”
“Who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from this present evil world, according to the will of God and our Father.”
— Galatians 1:4 (KJV)
Whatever evil is moving into the land, it will take the supernatural to outrun and outmaneuver it.
The cure is supernatural praying, ministry, and manifestations.
And Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease among the people. But when he saw the multitudes, he was moved with compassion on them, because they fainted, and were scattered abroad, as sheep having no shepherd. Then saith he unto his disciples, The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few; Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his harvest.
Matthew 9:35-38 (KJV)
This verse gives insight into the standard for ministry—teaching, preaching, and healing.
THE Apostle sent from Heaven laid out the example for all apostolic ministry.
THE Prophet, who is the Word made flesh from Heaven, gave us the example of what prophetic ministry should look like.
THE Good Shepherd, sent among us leading us all into green pastures and by still waters, has made the example of what pastoral ministry should look like.
THE Evangelist, the Great Preacher, declaring the good news, saying “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me to preach the Gospel…” He gave us the example of what an evangelistic ministry should look like.
THE Great Rabbi gave us an example of what teaching ministry should look like.
Where there is no leadership, there will always be a scattering.
When someone is not connected to leadership in a vital way, leadership is not able to speak into his or her life.
Bible-based, Spirit-led leadership is going to demand order.
As we pray, God will call, anoint, and send.
“And it came to pass in process of time, that the king of Egypt died: and the children of Israel sighed by reason of the bondage, and they cried, and their cry came up unto God by reason of the bondage. And God heard their groaning, and God remembered his covenant with Abraham, with Isaac, and with Jacob. And God looked upon the children of Israel, and God had respect unto them.”
Exodus 2:23-25 (KJV)
When the children of Israel cried out, God began to speak to a man concerning them.
The moment you start praying, God starts talking to people about you.
Don’t miss your answer simply because the person He is talking to about you isn’t packaged the way you think he or she should be.
There is help, favor, opportunity, and promotion packaged in the unfamiliar.
God called Moses, and similarly, God is sending deliverers from the holy place into the populous.
God anointed Moses when He gave him a word, a commission, and power, and similarly, God is calling ministers up to the mountain of God.
Word – “Let My people go.”
Commission (assignment) – To take the people out of Egypt and into a land of plenty.
Power – Burden-removing, yoke-destroying power that produced miracles, signs, and wonders as a proof of God’s working among them.
“There is something uncommon and unusual that will come through the ministers sent to this era that will impart supernatural abilities to people who are present in those meetings. Creativity and innovation that we are unfamiliar with.”
“And by a prophet (Moses) the Lord brought Israel up from Egypt, And by a prophet Israel was preserved.
Hosea 12:13 (AMP)
The prophetic anointing, when it is in full manifestation, will move large groups of people into the plan of God.
There are dozens of prophets like this who are emerging with power in their mouth and power in their hands. Some of them will look strange, but if the hand of the Lord is on them, we need to receive them as such.
He calls…
He separates you from the culture in order to answer it.
He anoints…
He equips you with supernatural equipment.
An anointing, that when it comes into manifestation, is very specific, laser sharp, and accurate.
And He sends.
Supernatural finances to accomplish supernatural things.
Heaven’s call requires Heaven’s economy, provision, promotion, and help.
To Preachers:
“There are some “ways” being made for you to do what He told you to do. The thought and the fear of having to do it broke, of having to sacrifice certain things financially to obey God—there are some things already in motion. Divine surprises. Sometimes it takes people a little while to obey God, but make no mistake, He is dealing with them. This is why you have to be just as quick to give as you are to receive…God is talking to people about helping you.”
To Musicians:
“There are portals opening that will bring the sounds, noises, and utterances circling the throne of God in Heaven to men. Worship on a level that humanity has been unfamiliar with. Worship that brings a certain dominion with it that causes everything wrong in you and around you to bow.”

“2024 — A Year of Supernatural Ministry (3)”
“Who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from this present evil world, according to the will of God and our Father.”
— Galatians 1:4 (KJV)
Whatever evil is moving into the land, it will take the supernatural to outrun and outmaneuver it.
The cure is supernatural praying, ministry, and manifestations.
To Musicians:
Music can only take you where it came from.
If it came out of the flesh it can only lead you to the flesh.
There’s a difference between playing under the influence of the spirit and improvised playing.
There’s a difference between having your mouth and fingers connected to your mind versus connected to your spirit.
Something brought out of the flesh will never draw you over into the Spirit.
There’s a difference between bringing forth a song and making a sound.
Bringing forth means to take something from one place and move it to the next. “Before she [Zion] travailed, she brought forth…” (see Isaiah 66:7).
“Making melody in your heart to the Lord…” (see Ephesians 5:19).
The Greek paints the picture of strings like a guitar.
The Spirit of God plays on the strings of your heart before you ever play on that instrument or make the sound with your voice.
When God wants to enlighten you, He does so by way of your spirit (heart), not your mind. The spirit of man is the candle of the Lord (see Proverbs 20:27).
A skillful musician knows how to distribute what they’re hearing in their heart to their fingers without delay, negotiation, or distortion.
It’s the will of God that you be skillful in business as well as presence.
If you’re skillful in business but not presence, you’re not useful to God.
If you’re skillful in presence but not business, the devil will rob you of your influence and increase.
The goal is to distribute an untainted flow of God.
Don’t allow your conditioning (religious or otherwise) to get in the way of what God is doing and saying to the people.
Your intellect, strengths, lived experience, culture, preferences, etc. should be a tool in the hand of God—not an opposition.
And Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease among the people. But when he saw the multitudes, he was moved with compassion on them, because they fainted, and were scattered abroad, as sheep having no shepherd. Then saith he unto his disciples, The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few; Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his harvest.
Matthew 9:35-38 (KJV)
The Word of the Lord
The Latin phrase missio Dei means the sending of God.
Every generation must experience God for themselves.
There is a specific manifestation of His presence that is available to every generation. And it is up to the ministers of that generation to get in the flow of that visitation.
Sometimes following the Spirit can look strange to other people because they didn’t hear what you heard.
You don’t owe people an explanation just because they don’t understand what you’re doing.
Don’t allow your need to be understood to compete with your need to obey God.
August 23, 2023, The Lord began dealing with me about ministers in 2024:
“This will be a year that you as a minister will revisit some things. God is going to bring opportunities back to you. Don’t sabotage this. The last time around, you disqualified yourself with wrong thinking. But there will be a supply of help that comes to assist you in the doing of ministry. Do not find yourself in a corner questioning your abilities and doubting the anointing given to you.”
This is your instruction: don’t sabotage it.
Sometimes God redeems the time by giving you uncommon favor or uncommon wisdom. But sometimes He does so by re-presenting opportunities to you that you messed up the first time.
“With boldness possess your vessel and the mantles that have been given. Stretch out your hand to teach, preach and heal. Greater anointing than what you have seen in this grace before will overwhelm you and propel you further in the work. Beyond ankle deep anointings. Into a greater flow of power for greater fruit. Fruit that will remain.”
Boldness gives the power of God a target.
Take courage, because sometimes courage is not offered to you.
“I will revisit prophecies with revelation and manifestation. And you will more clearly see what I meant when I showed you places where you are to flow. Clear, clear, clear. As things come into focus. You’ll see you are near, near, nearer than you think.”
Sometimes the Spirit of God will begin to move in your spirit, and the enemy and your unrenewed mind will try to talk you out of it and convince you that what you’re sensing on the inside is just mental energy.
“Before the spring, there need to be times of prayer and consecrations. You must learn the rhythms and cadences of the new season upon you. You must come up and out of mediocrity in your praying and in your seeing. Fine tuning your discernment so you’ll see what you’re needing. Placing your heart in His and He will reveal to you your part in this era.
“Learning. Learning that comes from the anointing. Not merely from a man [what someone else is doing]. But from the anointing on Spirit-men. Teaching, guiding, instructing, and providing that which is lacking in your faith.
“And so companies will form. And people will connect, stick, and stay. Because there is nourishment for mantles being passed that will cause you to be established and last. Outlast the accusations, the trouble, and the harassment. Because in this season you will not be embarrassed. He will make it right and restore you in their sight. And you’ll flow in the anointing from a healed place and with clean grace.
“His help comes to you, so get in your row and run with the truth. It is the Lord’s pleasure to use you!”
