Arise, shine; for your light has come! And the glory of the Lord is risen upon you. For behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and deep darkness the people; but the Lord will arise over you, and His glory will be seen upon you. The Gentiles shall come to your light, and kings to the brightness of your rising.  —Isaiah 60:1-3 The strongholds of darkness are being shaken, and the polluted waters are being stirred up. It's like the winter garden being tilled and turned, making a mess, but it's required for the garden's health and future harvest. The mess is actually a good sign.  We have prayed for years for hidden darkness to be exposed and driven out, and now it's happening,  but it will come at the cost of our status quo and complacency. Difficult circumstances will challenge us. This will be a season of darkness showing its hand, revealing itself, which will cause much turmoil. However, alignment with God and walking in His light will bring much opportunity for Hi...

The winds of change have been blowing this week, coming at you from all directions, causing an unsteadiness — a tossing back and forth. There has been an unsettling of places you thought were completely settled. The dirt has been tilled up, turned over — a few more weeds and roots exposed and removed. But even in the midst of the winds and the blowing, even though you feel shaken, because of the depth of your root structure and root system, you remain in place. The winds are causing you to bow low in humility as you question before the Lord. Bring your heart before Him one more time and allow Him to reveal any hidden areas — any places of adjustment — those places where He wants to call you higher so that you can truly walk blameless in this generation. As you bow your heart low in the storm, your roots go deeper and deeper. The anchoring into the deep places is required for you to rise and ascend into the heights with a strength that will enable you to stand and not be blown over. And...

I hear God saying, “Lean in close. Listen to what I am telling you about moving forward. Do not pull back. Stay settled in where I have placed you—the place of assignment and destiny. Yes, things are changing, but I am giving you the grace to stay steadfast and settled in My peace and joy. Watch how I am working all things for your good. Watch I’ve the next weeks as I show you how good it can get. Watch for My goodness and blessing as we move forward. I am covering you in ways that you cannot imagine. I am setting you up for the extraordinary that I have promised you!” —Margriet Leach, Emerging Prophets Director, California,  www.prophettraining.com Visit the  FTPN home page .

A Season of Shedding In December, while waiting for my husband to come out of a store, right outside the truck window was a tree. The tree's outer layer of bark was splitting open on its entire surface, and I could see the fresh, expanding layer beneath. A lesson from the Lord came as I observed this: a season of shedding is necessary to accommodate the inner expansion and growth. And this doesn't just apply to trees.  While the shedding can be unsightly and messy, the dead layer must go. In nature, several kinds of birds and reptiles go through molting cycles as they grow and mature. Even as children we outgrow our shoes repeatedly through the years, often splitting and bursting the seams of our favorite pairs.  Prophetic significance: Do not be surprised when things get sorted and sifted out of your life. Expect some change, a time of leaving behind, a throwing off of things that no longer fit. The Kingdom within you is expanding, causing some necessary shedding. This is fo...

Last night I kept dreaming about meeting pets and people that had the name Nova or a variety of the name. In praying over the dream, I heard God saying, “November will be about meeting up and interacting with the new! Let this be kindling to continue to help fan the flame that is within you as I am showing you that the new is here. New connections, new opportunities, and more will be indicators of what I am doing within and for you. There will be markers along the way to show you that the shift into the new is here. Do not look to the world, but continue to look at Me because you are called to thrive in the middle of it all. I am calling you to do things a new way. Unconventional. Unprecedented. Unmatched in outcome. You are wired for hope, favor, and glory. Let hope arise. Let faith arise as we enter into this new day together!” —Margriet Leach, Emerging Prophets Director, California,  www.prophettraining.com Visit the  FTPN home page .

In my dream (October 28, 2025), I saw a ferocious bear. It was a younger bear, and in the dream somehow I was with my dog Oliver. I’m not certain, but it felt that this was in a warmer season, and I saw American flags around. I overheard people everywhere telling me to flee for my life and to run from the bear. They felt doom for me and for them. However, I walked over to the bear with Oliver, and the bear yielded and actually became just like my dog in temperament. It was under control—unthreatening and peaceful. I had a deep knowing that this bear could be trusted because it was under control. I knew others would continue to be afraid because they couldn’t see or discern what I knew. I then opened the door for the bear to get into the car, and I peacefully rode with him home. People were almost terrified out of their minds for me… but I rested in the knowing of my spirit that this bear is not a threat contrary to what everyone else believed and saw. T hen, upon bringing the bear int...

It’s time to pivot, warriors. We’re standing at the edge of a global shift. A reset of money, systems, and power. The old world is crumbling while a new one is rising, and God is positioning His people to lead in it. The truth is, you can’t coast on what worked five years ago. You’re going to need to adapt. Learn a trade. Master a new skill. Take your God-given gifts and apply them in ways you’ve never imagined. AI and technology are moving faster than most people can comprehend. The economy is shaking at the same time. That’s not an accident; both are part of the same transition. The growth in AI won’t stop the financial shaking; it’ll expose it. We’re watching a money reset unfold right now, not years from now. Don’t wait for the government to save you. Don’t wait for a job to secure you. That era is over. This is the hour for kingdom innovators. Sons and daughters who hear from Heaven, think differently and build solutions the world can’t. God is looking for creators, builders, and ...
