God has a way of hiding glory in places we least expect. He sends His word through people fragile, imperfect, human vessels. And in that divine choice, He exposes the posture of our hearts.
Jesus said, “Whoever receives a prophet in the name of a prophet will receive a prophet’s reward; and whoever receives a righteous man in the name of a righteous man will receive a righteous man’s reward” (Matthew 10:41).
At first glance, this sounds like an exchange…honor the prophet, and you’ll get what they carry. But underneath lies something much deeper: receiving is an act of honor, and honor is an act of the heart.
Honor is more than polite words or formal gestures. It is the recognition of value. Respect acknowledges the position a person holds; honor esteems the presence of God upon them. When you receive a man or woman of God, you are not just receiving flesh and bone you are opening your heart to the treasure God has hidden within them.
This is where the heart issue emerges. It takes humility to honor what looks ordinary. It takes spiritual eyes to respect what the world dismisses. And it takes faith to believe that God chose to send something eternal wrapped in something human.
Honor says…I see God’s fingerprint on you, and I will treat you accordingly.
Respect says…Even if I don’t fully understand you, I will value the calling you carry.
Receiving says…I make room in my heart, in my home, and in my life for what God has entrusted to you.
These three are not separate they are woven together. Respect is the soil, honor is the seed, and receiving is the harvest. When you practice them, heaven responds. You begin to share in the blessing that rests on the one you’ve welcomed.
But here is the danger…dishonor closes doors. The moment we treat God’s vessel lightly, the flow of grace is hindered. This is why Jesus was without honor in His hometown the people saw only the carpenter’s son, not the Christ. They respected His history, but they did not honor His calling. And because they did not receive Him, they could not receive what He carried.
I know this truth personally, because I’ve been in that place. There were times God sent someone to speak into my life, and I didn’t receive them. Maybe I doubted the vessel, maybe I let pride creep in, maybe I assumed I knew better. But how could I receive wisdom if I never honored the one He chose to deliver it? In ignoring them, I wasn’t just dishonoring the person I was dishonoring God. And the consequences were real. I missed out on timely wisdom and found myself learning lessons the hard way. God is faithful, but He often sends His answers through people, and to reject them is to reject Him.
This is why we must be vigilant. We cannot afford to let pride masquerade as discernment, or independence disguise itself as strength. Honor is not weakness it is power. It positions us to receive what heaven is releasing, often through ordinary hands.
In our modern world, we are conditioned to critique before we honor, to measure worth by charisma or status, to give respect only when it is earned. But Kingdom culture is different. The Kingdom says: Honor opens heaven. Respect attracts blessing. Receiving unlocks the flow of God.
So today, pause and look around you. Who in your life carries God’s presence in ways you have taken for granted? A pastor, a mentor, a friend, perhaps even a family member. Could it be that the answer to your prayer is already near, waiting to be unlocked by honor?
The truth is, when you honor a prophet, you don’t just hear their words you share in their reward. When you respect a righteous person, you don’t just admire their life you partake in their blessing. And when you receive the man or woman of God, you are in reality receiving God Himself.
The heart posture makes all the difference. To honor is to see. To respect is to value. To receive is to welcome.
It’s been pressing on me lately how Moses struck the rock instead of speaking to it. You know the story Numbers 20…God told him, “Speak to the rock.” But Moses, fed up and frustrated with the people, took his staff and hit it. The water still poured out, but it cost him something huge. It cost him entrance into the promise.
And I feel like this is exactly where a lot of us are right now.
Just the other day I was in my apartment trying to have time with the Lord. My neighbors downstairs had been outside blasting music all night, drinking, carrying on. I let it go then, but the next morning it started again loud, obnoxious, doors open, bottles out. At first, I ignored it. Then I asked nicely if they could turn it down. They did for five minutes. Then they cranked it even louder.
Something started to boil... I just wanted peace. I just wanted time with God. I stepped outside and there he was, drunk, giving me dirty looks. He got in my face, talking about how he had the right to be loud, and everything in me wanted to strike. Because that’s the fleshy instinct to fight back, to defend yourself, to match the disrespect with disrespect. And as I walked away with him still following me, my flesh was screaming for a reaction.
But the Lord wouldn’t let me shake this: “Don’t strike the rock…Speak to it!!”
See, striking the rock doesn’t always mean throwing fists. Sometimes it’s the way we snap back, the words we release, the way we let frustration lead. Scripture says our tongue carries the power of life and death. One word out of the flesh can cut deep. One reaction outside of the Spirit can cost us dearly. And Jesus told us straight…pray for your enemies. It doesn’t make sense to the flesh, but that’s the power of the Spirit.
Moses shows us what happens when we let impatience lead. Instead of waiting on God, instead of obeying His instruction, he tried to handle it his way. And just like Abraham birthing Ishmael when he couldn’t wait for Isaac, fleshly shortcuts always come with consequences.
Right now, God is refining us. There’s stretching, pruning, fire burning away what doesn’t belong. And in that process, we’re being tested…will we strike, or will we speak?
Because every one of us has something in front of us that makes us want to swing. Maybe it’s the failed relationship. Maybe it’s the financial weight, the disrespect, the opposition, the constant pressure. Striking it might feel right in the moment, but it won’t move it. Jesus said, “If you say to this mountain, ‘Be moved,’ and believe in your heart, it will be done.” The answer is not in striking, it’s in speaking. Speaking in faith, Speaking in prayer, Speaking what heaven says instead of what the flesh feels.
This is not the time to swing in frustration. This is not the time to let anger rob you of promise. It’s the time to war in the Spirit. It’s the time to open your mouth and declare what God says.
SO I PROPHECY AND DECLARE!!We will not strike the rock. We will be led by the Spirit. We cast down every imagination and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God. We declare we will enter the promised land God has personally prepared for us. I speak in Jesus name there will be less of us and more of Him. We will be quick to listen, slow to speak, slow to anger. We will walk by the Spirit, not by the flesh. And when the pressure comes, living water will flow not from our frustration, but from our obedience.
I DECLARE… this is a season of breakthrough. The mountains in front of us will move. The opposition will bow. And the promises of God will come to pass not by might, not by power, but by His Spirit. In Jesus name.
Identity and Authority Walking in Agreement with God
Picture this for a moment…You were locked in a prison cell. The walls were cold, the chains were heavy, and the door was sealed tight. But then Christ came. He didn’t just slip you the keys He swung those doors wide open. The chains hit the floor. Freedom was handed to you. The way forward was cleared.
But here’s the crazy part…too many of us, after being set free, walk right back into the cell. Not because the chains are still there but because we pick them back up. We start wearing old labels, rehearsing old lies, and repeating old habits. We live like the door is still shut when the truth is it’s been open this whole time!!
Why? Because we’re still in agreement with the wrong voice.
Amos 3:3 says, ‘Can two walk together unless they are agreed?’ Agreement determines direction. Agreement determines alignment. If I agree with the voice of my past, I’m walking with my past. If I agree with the lies of the enemy that say ‘You’ll never change. You’re not loved. You’re not enough’ then I’m basically walking hand-in-hand with the father of lies. Come on now!!…..why would we keep letting the enemy narrate our story? But when I agree with what God says about me I am chosen, I am forgiven, I am powerful, I am free, I am a child of the Most High then I’m walking in step with Him!!!
And here’s the beauty….agreement with God doesn’t just give you identity, it restores your authority.
From the beginning, in Genesis 1:26–28, God said…‘Let us make man in our image… and let them have dominion.’ Dominion was our design. Authority was our inheritance. We were created to carry His image and exercise His rule not in pride, but in partnership. But when sin entered, that dominion was forfeited. Our identity got hacked, Authority was lost.
But Jesus didn’t just come to bail us out of sin He came to restore us back into authority. Colossians 2:10 says, ‘In Him you are complete’ nothing missing, nothing broken. And Luke 10:19 says, ‘Behold, I give you authority (exousia) to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy.’
That word exousia doesn’t just mean raw power it’s the delegated right to act in His name. Think of it like heaven’s badge of authority. You’re not some spiritual bystander. You’re not barely hanging on. You’ve been deputized by Christ Himself.
But here’s the tension….how can we walk in dominion if we’re still agreeing with the old man? How can we walk in authority if we’re still bowing to the labels of our past? You can’t reign if you’re still rehearsing who you used to be.
Romans 6:4 declares, ‘Just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, we too should walk in newness of life.’ That means we don’t just survive we walk. We don’t crawl back into old cells. We don’t keep putting on grave clothes. Nah, they’re trippin if they think we’re still bound we walk in newness.
Let me make it plain…
•When you agree with fear, you surrender your authority.
•When you agree with shame, you silence your identity.
•When you agree with lies, you forfeit your dominion.
But when you agree with God? Everything changes. Agreement with heaven realigns you to walk in your true nature Adam’s nature before the fall dominion, purity, authority, sonship.
So I ask you today…What voice are you agreeing with? The past or the promise? The old man or the new creation?
The doors are open. The chains are gone. Don’t walk back into a prison Jesus already broke you out of. Walk in authority. Walk in dominion. Walk as a son, as a daughter, restored to reign in life through Christ.
I know this shouldn’t be nothing new to any of us, but it’s a good reminder. Sometimes we need that little nudge to remind us who we are in Christ, what we’re called to do and it’s time to take dominion in Jesus name!!!
FAKE IT to make it? Nah we FAITH IT to make it. To FAKE IT is to build a fragile image, a house of cards that collapses under the first winds of trial. But to FAITH IT is to build on rock, immovable and eternal. FAKE IT is a shadow, FAITH IT is substance. FAKE IT hides cracks behind a smile, but FAITH IT lays the broken pieces before God and trusts Him to restore. Sight is shallow, bound to the surface of what seems real; faith is deep, rooted in what is eternally true. That is why we walk by faith and not by sight because sight is fleeting, but faith is forever. And when FAITH IT carries us, we discover that making it is not about pretending to be strong, but about trusting the One who is. In Jesus name!!
2 Corinthians 5:7 “For we walk by faith, not by sight.”
Jeremiah 3:13 “Only acknowledge your iniquity, that you have transgressed against the Lord your God, and have scattered your charms to alien deities under every green tree, and you have not obeyed My voice,” says the Lord.
There’s something about the way the Lord speaks in this chapter. He’s not raging. He’s not pushing you away. He’s not saying, “You better get it all together before you come back.” It’s almost quiet but firm. He says, “Only acknowledge.” That word only hits. It’s simple, but it cuts. He’s not asking for your resume. He’s not asking for a list of promises. He’s just asking for honesty. That kind of truth that breaks the silence and brings you back into alignment.
And truthfully, I feel this for myself too. This isn’t just a word for somebody else. This has been speaking to me. There are areas I’ve had to get real about times where I’ve caught myself numbing out, scrolling on my phone not because I’m interested, but because I don’t want to sit still. I’ve had to face moments where I was idolizing a relationship, making it a place of comfort when I should’ve been running to God. Even covering things I don’t have trying to look like I’m good when my heart was heavy. It’s easy to drift into those spaces without even realizing you’re under a green tree.
That phrase “under every green tree” it sounds poetic, but it’s loaded. In Scripture, that green tree is the place of mixture. A place where people gave worship to other gods but tried to keep the appearance of righteousness. It looked fruitful. It looked peaceful. But it was a cover for compromise. And that’s what God was calling out. Not to shame them but to wake them up. He’s saying, “You’ve scattered what was sacred.” You gave your charm, your essence, your energy to things that didn’t deserve it. And maybe we’ve done the same.
I think we need to be honest about how serious the times are. We’re not living in casual days anymore. There’s an urgency in the Spirit right now. And we’ve got to take the time to examine ourselves. What are we under? What are we giving ourselves to? What voices have replaced His voice? Because He says, “You have not obeyed My voice,” and that’s the real issue it’s not that we’re incapable of obedience, it’s that sometimes we’ve been tuned in to everything but Him.
And yet there’s still this invitation. Only acknowledge. That’s the doorway. That’s where things shift. He’s not throwing you out. He’s not starting over without you. He’s still at the altar. And that’s what Jeremiah 3 as a whole is really echoing it mirrors the story of Hosea. A faithful Husband standing at the altar, waiting for His bride to come home. Not with shame. Not with punishment. But with longing. That imagery is powerful God, standing in covenant, ready to restore what was lost, if we’d just return.
So maybe this is one of those moments. A moment to stop covering. A moment to stop scrolling. A moment to come out from under the green tree, and into the light of truth again. Not because we’ve figured it all out, but because we’re finally ready to be honest. That’s what He wants. Not a show. Not a promise. Just your heart. Just your yes.
And I’m saying this with you, not just at you. He’s been dealing with me, too. I’ve felt that nudge to look at the places where I’ve let my heart wander even if it wasn’t loud or obvious. But the beautiful thing is, He’s still calling. He’s still waiting. And when we acknowledge, He doesn’t meet us with judgment He meets us with restoration. I I truly and wholly pray this minister to you, speaks to your heart in Jesus name!
Blessings Family Here is a Prophetic Encouragement for many!!
The LORD is raising up a REMNANT not made righteous by PERFORMANCE, but by PROMISE. A people not covered in TITLES, but clothed in TRUTH. You might feel HIDDEN, SMALL, maybe even OVERLOOKED like a seed buried in silence… But make no mistake you are the PLANTING OF THE LORD, and HE’S NOT DONE WITH YOU.
You are the CRAFTED WORK OF HIS HANDS shaped in the SECRET PLACE, pruned in PAIN, and now positioned for PUBLIC FRUITFULNESS. The SHAME that tried to name you? It’s being OVERWRITTEN by the RIGHTEOUSNESS He placed on you. You’re NOT WHO YOU WERE you’re becoming WHO HE ALWAYS SAW. 👀✨
👂🏽 LISTEN UP…
The LAND you lost… The INHERITANCE you thought was gone… The TIME you thought was wasted… HE’S RESTORING IT not for your own recognition, but for HIS GLORY. 🕊️👑
Though you started SMALL… Though your name was only whispered in INTERCESSION… Though your reach was LIMITED and your strength barely held together… YOU WILL BECOME A THOUSAND. YOU WILL BECOME A NATION. 🌍🔥
TODAY… The LITTLE becomes MIGHTY. The LEAST becomes LEGACY. The REMNANT becomes REVELATION.
And GOD says
“I, THE LORD, WILL MAKE IT HAPPEN. I WILL HASTEN IT IN ITS TIME.” (Isaiah 60:21–22)
There’s a SUDDENLY for those who STAYED FAITHFUL. There’s a SEASON SHIFT for the ones who DIDN’T QUIT. You’re not just walking into a BLESSING you’re stepping into a DIVINE BIRTHING. 💥⏳
This isn’t the fruit of your striving… It’s the result of HIS PLANTING. And when HE PLANTS IT, no man, no system, no demon can UPROOT it. 🙌🏽🌱
So STAND FIRM, righteous one. You’re not barely HOLDING ON you’re being MULTIPLIED. And what He’s about to do THROUGH YOU is going to GLORIFY HIM in ways your name never could.
🌱 YOU ARE THE BRANCH OF HIS PLANTING. 🛠 YOU ARE THE WORK OF HIS HANDS. 🔥 AND HE WILL MAKE IT HAPPEN.

The Posture of Receiving
God has a way of hiding glory in places we least expect. He sends His word through people fragile, imperfect, human vessels. And in that divine choice, He exposes the posture of our hearts.
Jesus said, “Whoever receives a prophet in the name of a prophet will receive a prophet’s reward; and whoever receives a righteous man in the name of a righteous man will receive a righteous man’s reward” (Matthew 10:41).
At first glance, this sounds like an exchange…honor the prophet, and you’ll get what they carry. But underneath lies something much deeper: receiving is an act of honor, and honor is an act of the heart.
Honor is more than polite words or formal gestures. It is the recognition of value. Respect acknowledges the position a person holds; honor esteems the presence of God upon them. When you receive a man or woman of God, you are not just receiving flesh and bone you are opening your heart to the treasure God has hidden within them.
This is where the heart issue emerges. It takes humility to honor what looks ordinary. It takes spiritual eyes to respect what the world dismisses. And it takes faith to believe that God chose to send something eternal wrapped in something human.
Honor says…I see God’s fingerprint on you, and I will treat you accordingly.
Respect says…Even if I don’t fully understand you, I will value the calling you carry.
Receiving says…I make room in my heart, in my home, and in my life for what God has entrusted to you.
These three are not separate they are woven together. Respect is the soil, honor is the seed, and receiving is the harvest. When you practice them, heaven responds. You begin to share in the blessing that rests on the one you’ve welcomed.
But here is the danger…dishonor closes doors. The moment we treat God’s vessel lightly, the flow of grace is hindered. This is why Jesus was without honor in His hometown the people saw only the carpenter’s son, not the Christ. They respected His history, but they did not honor His calling. And because they did not receive Him, they could not receive what He carried.
I know this truth personally, because I’ve been in that place. There were times God sent someone to speak into my life, and I didn’t receive them. Maybe I doubted the vessel, maybe I let pride creep in, maybe I assumed I knew better. But how could I receive wisdom if I never honored the one He chose to deliver it? In ignoring them, I wasn’t just dishonoring the person I was dishonoring God. And the consequences were real. I missed out on timely wisdom and found myself learning lessons the hard way. God is faithful, but He often sends His answers through people, and to reject them is to reject Him.
This is why we must be vigilant. We cannot afford to let pride masquerade as discernment, or independence disguise itself as strength. Honor is not weakness it is power. It positions us to receive what heaven is releasing, often through ordinary hands.
In our modern world, we are conditioned to critique before we honor, to measure worth by charisma or status, to give respect only when it is earned. But Kingdom culture is different. The Kingdom says: Honor opens heaven. Respect attracts blessing. Receiving unlocks the flow of God.
So today, pause and look around you. Who in your life carries God’s presence in ways you have taken for granted? A pastor, a mentor, a friend, perhaps even a family member. Could it be that the answer to your prayer is already near, waiting to be unlocked by honor?
The truth is, when you honor a prophet, you don’t just hear their words you share in their reward. When you respect a righteous person, you don’t just admire their life you partake in their blessing. And when you receive the man or woman of God, you are in reality receiving God Himself.
The heart posture makes all the difference.
To honor is to see.
To respect is to value.
To receive is to welcome.
And in that welcoming, heaven meets earth.

Identity and Authority

‘Come Out From Under the Green Tree’
Jeremiah 3:13
“Only acknowledge your iniquity, that you have transgressed against the Lord your God, and have scattered your charms to alien deities under every green tree, and you have not obeyed My voice,” says the Lord.
There’s something about the way the Lord speaks in this chapter. He’s not raging. He’s not pushing you away. He’s not saying, “You better get it all together before you come back.” It’s almost quiet but firm. He says, “Only acknowledge.” That word only hits. It’s simple, but it cuts. He’s not asking for your resume. He’s not asking for a list of promises. He’s just asking for honesty. That kind of truth that breaks the silence and brings you back into alignment.
And truthfully, I feel this for myself too. This isn’t just a word for somebody else. This has been speaking to me. There are areas I’ve had to get real about times where I’ve caught myself numbing out, scrolling on my phone not because I’m interested, but because I don’t want to sit still. I’ve had to face moments where I was idolizing a relationship, making it a place of comfort when I should’ve been running to God. Even covering things I don’t have trying to look like I’m good when my heart was heavy. It’s easy to drift into those spaces without even realizing you’re under a green tree.
That phrase “under every green tree” it sounds poetic, but it’s loaded. In Scripture, that green tree is the place of mixture. A place where people gave worship to other gods but tried to keep the appearance of righteousness. It looked fruitful. It looked peaceful. But it was a cover for compromise. And that’s what God was calling out. Not to shame them but to wake them up. He’s saying, “You’ve scattered what was sacred.” You gave your charm, your essence, your energy to things that didn’t deserve it. And maybe we’ve done the same.
I think we need to be honest about how serious the times are. We’re not living in casual days anymore. There’s an urgency in the Spirit right now. And we’ve got to take the time to examine ourselves. What are we under? What are we giving ourselves to? What voices have replaced His voice? Because He says, “You have not obeyed My voice,” and that’s the real issue it’s not that we’re incapable of obedience, it’s that sometimes we’ve been tuned in to everything but Him.
And yet there’s still this invitation. Only acknowledge. That’s the doorway. That’s where things shift. He’s not throwing you out. He’s not starting over without you. He’s still at the altar. And that’s what Jeremiah 3 as a whole is really echoing it mirrors the story of Hosea. A faithful Husband standing at the altar, waiting for His bride to come home. Not with shame. Not with punishment. But with longing. That imagery is powerful God, standing in covenant, ready to restore what was lost, if we’d just return.
So maybe this is one of those moments. A moment to stop covering. A moment to stop scrolling. A moment to come out from under the green tree, and into the light of truth again. Not because we’ve figured it all out, but because we’re finally ready to be honest. That’s what He wants. Not a show. Not a promise. Just your heart. Just your yes.
And I’m saying this with you, not just at you. He’s been dealing with me, too. I’ve felt that nudge to look at the places where I’ve let my heart wander even if it wasn’t loud or obvious. But the beautiful thing is, He’s still calling. He’s still waiting. And when we acknowledge, He doesn’t meet us with judgment He meets us with restoration. I I truly and wholly pray this minister to you, speaks to your heart in Jesus name!

🔥“I WILL MAKE IT HAPPEN” 🔥
Blessings Family Here is a Prophetic Encouragement for many!!
The LORD is raising up a REMNANT not made righteous by PERFORMANCE, but by PROMISE.
A people not covered in TITLES, but clothed in TRUTH.
You might feel HIDDEN, SMALL, maybe even OVERLOOKED like a seed buried in silence…
But make no mistake you are the PLANTING OF THE LORD, and HE’S NOT DONE WITH YOU.
You are the CRAFTED WORK OF HIS HANDS
shaped in the SECRET PLACE, pruned in PAIN, and now positioned for PUBLIC FRUITFULNESS.
The SHAME that tried to name you?
It’s being OVERWRITTEN by the RIGHTEOUSNESS He placed on you.
You’re NOT WHO YOU WERE you’re becoming WHO HE ALWAYS SAW. 👀✨
👂🏽 LISTEN UP…
The LAND you lost…
The INHERITANCE you thought was gone…
The TIME you thought was wasted…
HE’S RESTORING IT not for your own recognition, but for HIS GLORY. 🕊️👑
Though you started SMALL…
Though your name was only whispered in INTERCESSION…
Though your reach was LIMITED and your strength barely held together…
YOU WILL BECOME A THOUSAND.
YOU WILL BECOME A NATION. 🌍🔥
TODAY…
The LITTLE becomes MIGHTY.
The LEAST becomes LEGACY.
The REMNANT becomes REVELATION.
And GOD says
“I, THE LORD, WILL MAKE IT HAPPEN. I WILL HASTEN IT IN ITS TIME.” (Isaiah 60:21–22)
There’s a SUDDENLY for those who STAYED FAITHFUL.
There’s a SEASON SHIFT for the ones who DIDN’T QUIT.
You’re not just walking into a BLESSING you’re stepping into a DIVINE BIRTHING. 💥⏳
This isn’t the fruit of your striving…
It’s the result of HIS PLANTING.
And when HE PLANTS IT, no man, no system, no demon can UPROOT it. 🙌🏽🌱
So STAND FIRM, righteous one.
You’re not barely HOLDING ON you’re being MULTIPLIED.
And what He’s about to do THROUGH YOU is going to GLORIFY HIM in ways your name never could.
🌱 YOU ARE THE BRANCH OF HIS PLANTING.
🛠 YOU ARE THE WORK OF HIS HANDS.
🔥 AND HE WILL MAKE IT HAPPEN.
