God says: "Today I declare that I will restore double to you."

Gavin Dees22:40

Transcription

So, if you're seeing this, uh, I want to pray. I want to pray. I want to enter in right now to his presence. I've had so much resistance within me, uh, getting this word out, getting this word into this month, into this month. I believe that the spirit of the Lord is upon me. I believe the spirit is coming upon you. Oh, I believe the spirit is upon many of you. And the evidence of that is the weapons that have been formed. What has been formed? And I want to pray.

Heavenly Father, right now, heavenly father, I come to you in the name of Jesus, Yeshua. Yeshua, the Messiah. And so I just come before you, oh Yahweh. I come before you, Aba. Lifting up the sound of my voice, Lord. I pray for your spirit to come forth. Lord, I pray for the rivers of living water to come forth. I pray for your spirit to come upon every person who has clicked in, who has who is uh connected to this ministry, whoever is seeing this right now, whether they've discovered it, whether somebody has sent this to them, Holy Spirit, make this real. Make this living. Break off all bondage. For the anointing breaks the yoke of slavery. It breaks the spirit of fear. I bind all fear from this ministry. I bind all fear from this atmosphere. I bind it in the name of Jesus. And I plead the blood, the blood, the blood of Jesus upon this atmosphere. I stand upon the broken body of our Lord. Of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, our King who is coming. Our King is coming. The King of glory is coming. The King of glory is coming. He's not coming back as a lamb. He's coming back as a lion. When John saw him, thank you, Holy Spirit. When John saw him, it said there was like a sword coming out of his mouth. And I prophesy that the sword which is the spirit, the sword of the Lord is coming out and coming down out of your mouth in this season. Your mouth. Your mouth right now. And so, Holy Spirit, this word that's burning, the revelation that's happening, the lifting that's happening, the resurrection that's happening, the healing that's happening right now, God, we shut the world out right now. We shut the weapons that are being formed. We shut the enemy out. His day is over. His day is over. His day is over. And so I just seal this right now and I release this into the atmosphere upon every person upon every person. May they see you. May they hear your son and not me in Jesus' name. In Jesus name.

But this morning, I heard the Holy Spirit. I was just in the middle of prayer. I was in the middle of prayer and I heard the phrase prisoner of hope. Prisoner of hope. Prisoner of hope. And I immediately knew uh that the Lord I know that that's a scripture. I know that that's a scripture. And so I want to read it to you. It's uh Zechariah 9:12. And it says, "Return to the stronghold, you prisoners of hope. Even today, I declare that I will restore double to you." That's Zechariah 9:12. And I began to sense the Lord inviting us back to him where where he is our covering where he is our covering because and I and as I was studying this as I was studying this the Lord is speaking this in the midst of enemies that have been formed enemies that are that are attacking that feel brave. I've released this. The enemies have felt brave. They feel more brave. But their bravery is not a sign that their day has begun. It's a sign that their day has ended and that your light has come. The glory of the Lord has come upon you and your family. And I want to read this. We need to see Jesus not as the lamb that just walked this earth, but we need to see him as a king. as a king.

Zechariah 9, I encourage you to go read it. Rejoice, oh people of Zion. Shout and triumph. Shout in triumph. Now is not the time, especially even in your prayer life, in your life. May the spirit of boldness, may the spirit of boldness come upon you right now. May the spirit of timidity be broken and bound from your life. May you open your voice to make a sound. May you release it. I'm talking physically. I'm not talking about just spiritually, metaphorically. This is not a parable. This is a time to get loud. This is a time to raise your voice. This is a time to speak up. This is a time to speak and declare and prophesy whatever the Lord has spoken to you. For the King of glory is coming through you. This is what the Lord says. Look, your king is coming. He is righteous and victorious. Yet he is humble, riding on a donkey. I will remove the battle chariots from Israel, the war horses that have been coming against you. I will I will destroy all the weapons used in battle, and your king will bring peace to the nations. His realm will stretch from sea to sea. because the covenant I made with you which is sealed in blood, I will free your prisoners.

And going down to verse 14, the Lord will appear above his people. His arrows will be flying like lightning. Oh, I see the Lord. I see the Lord. I'm telling you, keep your eyes fixed upon him. Keep your eyes fixed upon him. There are arrows flying at your enemies right now. There are arrows from heaven flying, hitting your enemies, hitting and destroying everything that's been attacking you, everything that's been coming against you, everything that's been coming against you. There are arrows, but you must return to the stronghold. And I and I saw this this morning. You must return to the stronghold. I'm following the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit said, "Imagine in the spirit a literal circle around you." And here in my uh in my office in in the place that I record, I have a rug right here and it's a circle. And as I was looking down, the Lord was like, "Imagine a circle around you. The circle represents Christ." And he says, "I want you to locate yourself inside of that circle." So imagine, take the time, don't just listen to this video. Take the time and imagine it right now in the spirit that you are in a circle. You're in a circle. And that circle is Christ. You're in him. You are now locating yourself like a pin drop. Thank you, Holy Spirit. Imagine the pen like when you're using GPS, the pen, the location. Find yourself located inside of that circle. Oh, the Holy Spirit is about to set you free. Everything in that circle is yours. And it is who you are. It is who you are.

And then I began to hear the Holy Spirit highlight this. Come to God with your expectation. Raise your expectations. The Lord says this is what it means to become a prisoner of hope. And the revelation Paul says this, that I've made myself a love slave, a slave to hope. And the Holy Spirit began to highlight this to me that when Jesus said, "Are you weary? Are you tired? Come to me and I will give you rest. I will give you rest, says the Lord. Take upon you my yoke which is easy. My burden is light." And it represents a yoke being laid upon your head where you bend your neck and he lays it upon you. I want you to imagine the Lord right now laying upon you his yoke. This is what it means to be a prisoner of hope. For when you take upon yourself the yoke of the Lord. When you receive the Holy Spirit, you were bound to him. And to be bound, when you're bound to something, it becomes a two-way street. Everything that that whatever you're bound to is, it is connected to you. Imagine this as an umbilical cord. A baby and a mother, a complete union, complete union. Everything that the mother is is being inputed into it. And everything the child is is in the mother. This is life in Christ. This is life in Christ. Abide in me and I will abide in you. I pray you're receiving this.

And the Lord began to highlight instruction to me to break agreements. To break agreements that you've made. Break agreements with false coverings, false identities, self-reliance. Doing everything in your own strength. When you try to do everything in your own strength, you're stepping outside of the circle. You become responsible out there. You become responsible for everything that you've been doing in your own strength. But the Lord has invited us into this circle. And I believe the Lord I believe prophetically the reason this was so hard. I believe that the world is being shaken. I believe that darkness is going to run rampant. I believe things are getting ready to unfold. I believe attacks from the enemy suddenly. I've heard people used like black swan events. If you go look this up, they're sudden unexplainable things that just happen that cause destruction. But the Lord has spoken to me time and time again. When this begins to happen, your day has begun. The prison doors will open. You will begin to fly. believers will begin to rise. Glory will begin to come upon you. The spirit will fall upon you. And you will feel something that you've never felt. You will not even recognize who you are. And so the Lord is saying this now to make yourself a prisoner of hope. Imagine this. And the Holy Spirit gave me this. He gave me this. Where is it? for the Lord. [Music] Yes. That you're chained to hope. This is how you anchor yourself in the spirit. Imagine an anchor. Imagine this as an anchor. An anchor in a boat that no matter what's happening, the boat's not going anywhere. You're not going anywhere in this season. But you have to declare. You have to you have to declare this. prophesy this into your atmosphere. Some of you it's it's a I'm telling you as God is my witness. This idea has been hard because I've been attached to things. I've been addicted before. I've been broken. I've been a slave to so many things. But this is different. This is different. When you do this, some some of you it's even the words itself may may conjure up fe it may just make fear come up. But I'm telling you as God is my witness, chain yourself to hope and you will begin to see faith come. Faith is the substance of things hoped for. And the Lord is saying hope again to raise your expectations again. To raise your expectations, not for what is coming, but for who God is. Raise your expectations.

And the Lord highlighted three things that need to happen. To repent. Repent for the low expectations that you've carried towards God. to renounce the low expectations you've carried towards God. The Bible says to throw off every weight. Low expectations are weights that you no longer need to carry. You no longer need to carry the disappointment from the previous season. You no longer need to carry what they did to you, but to raise your hope again. Raise your hope. Chain yourself to hope and then begin to release it, says the Lord. Release it into the atmosphere that you are a prisoner of hope. Declare it. Decree it. I am a prisoner of hope. I prophesy into this atmosphere. This ministry is a prisoner of hope. Come hell or high water, we will be anchored in hope. We will be anchored in the one that came. We will be anchored in the Holy Spirit who is in us. We will be anchored in the one that is coming. We will be anchored in hope. I'm telling you, there is such excitement in my spirit for what is coming. There is such expectation for the believer. The Holy Spirit highlighted this. But this verse to make yourself a prisoner of hope. This verse is what Jesus was pointing to when he said, "Take my yoke upon you." This is that yoke. It's binding yourself to hope. It's making yourself submitted to hope, to bending the knee to hope, to bowing before hope. For hope is not an idea. Hope is a person. Hope is a person. Hope is found in the father. Hope is found in the Lord Jesus. And hope is found in our precious Holy Spirit. [Music] Yes. Yes. Holy Spirit, release understanding. Release understanding. [Music] Release understanding upon us right now. Release understanding upon us right now. I pray that we would shut the door. That we would kick out. That we would that we would expel darkness from our life. That we would open our mouth and rebuke it to correct it to say this stops. This stops with me. This is stopping. I will no longer be a slave to you. For I have bound myself to hope. I have bound myself to the one who saves. I have made myself a slave to love. I have made myself bound to the only one worthy. The only one worthy.

And heavenly father right now, oh Yahweh, release it now upon your people. Release it upon your people right now. A double portion over your people. Your word says, "I will release a double portion. I will repay two blessings for each of your troubles." Gosh, thank you, Lord. Thank you, Lord, for the Lord. Oh, man. The Lord is about to defeat it all. It's all over. It's all over. I pray that we begin to see in the spirit that we begin to see I saw just a a faint picture of just arrows flying from heaven. Fire falling from heaven, fire getting ready to to consume our enemies. So, if you've moved into this month and it's already things have felt shaky, the world is shaking, you will not be shaken. The Lord it allow it. Thank you, Holy Spirit. Allow it to shake you into the circle. Everyone found in this circle. Everyone found in the circle. Everyone located in Christ, come unto me. The Lord says, "For I have overcome the world. The world, the water cannot come into that boat. The water cannot come into the ark. The water cannot reach you. The destruction shall not come near you. Destruction may happen, but it shall not come near you. But you must live inside of the circle. You must receive Christ not just as your Lord, not just as your savior, but as your identity, as who you are. Allow him to be your mirror. The Bible says that we behold. My prayer has been this. Holy Spirit, help me to behold the glory of the Lord as in a mirror. The Lord Jesus came to redeem us, to redeem our fallen identity, to redeem our fallen nature, to give us back what Adam lost. You are found in Christ. You are whole in Christ. You are healed in Christ. You are free in Christ. You are whole in Christ. You are blessed in Christ. In Christ, he's living in you. He's living in you.

And I, Holy Spirit, make this a living, breathing reality as we head into these coming days. May joy begin to be stirred. May we not be afraid to be joyful again. May we not be afraid to raise our hopes, Lord. May we become a prisoner of hope. May we become like a ball in a chain with hope. We return to the stronghold where we find our strength right now. Now we return to the circle. Only will we be moved by you in this season, God. We repent of anything, anything that has kept us out of this circle. We renounce it. We bind it. I rebuke every spirit that's not the Holy Spirit. I rebuke it in the name of Jesus. Satan, the Lord rebukes you. Your day is over. Your day is over. Your day is over. Your bravery. We will not be moved by your intimidation. We will not be moved by your lies. We will not be moved by your voice. We will be moved by the voice of our father. And it's in the mighty name of Jesus that I pray. And if you agree with this, say amen. Receive this. Receive this. And I want you to declare this in the comments. I am making myself a prisoner of hope. You will be known as a prisoner of hope. Many people will come to you in your lifetime asking you and in the days to come, what is this hope within you? What do you believe? Tell me about the God that you serve. Tell me about the God that you follow because I want to know him. I want to know him. Many will come into the kingdom. Many will come into the kingdom because of you. Many will come. And so I pray you get this in your spirit. I pray that you share this with somebody. This word is important. This word is so important. The Lord and I believe the Lord is saying make a make yourself a prisoner, a ball and chain. Anchor yourself to hope. Why would you want to drop an anchor? I I thank you, Holy Spirit. A captain will begin to tell his crew, "Drop the anchor." Well, captain, we don't see anything yet. I'm telling you, there's a storm coming. I'm telling you, there's a storm coming. The captain would say, "Drop the anchor." Would you just drop it at my word? Would you just drop it at my word? Drop the anchor. Drop the anchor. Be bound to hope. Be bound to hope again. Like a child, children are bound to hope. They're bound to it. So return to the stronghold. Return to the circle. Draw a literal circle. Draw a literal circle around you and sit in it and imagine nothing can come in that circle. I feel his freedom. I feel his peace. I feel his joy. I feel his strength. The king is coming. He's coming. He's coming. Receive it. Receive everything. Stay close to him. Stay close to him. Oh man. In Jesus name.

And I want to thank you guys uh for all the comments, the seeds, just the shares, the everything that's happening in this ministry. Something's happening. Uh something's happening. The Lord uh has given me much uh responsibility. He's given me an identity again. I haven't always been like this. I've lived away from him. And I'm telling you, God is my witness. He's doing something. He's taking this ministry beyond my my my comprehension. So, if you've made it to this part of the video, I encourage you to like the video. Uh to like the video. It helps with this ministry. I encourage you to sew as you feel led. And I always encourage people to if it's not this, wherever the kingdom of God is coming upon you, wherever revelation is breaking forth out of you. Sew into that. Support the work of the Lord. Wherever he is moving in your life, sew into it. Sew into it. Some of it is people around you. A prayer that uh we've been praying is, "Holy Spirit, help me to find Jesus. When I walk into a room, help me to find Jesus." The key is not just seeing that person. Can you see Jesus? Can you see the Lord? And when you see him, love him. Sew into him. And it will never be returned void. It will be returned 100fold back unto you in Jesus' name. In Jesus name. I love you.
