There is a heavy sense of fear and panic happening in the world, even among many in the body of Christ. 2 Timothy 1:7 says, “For God did not give us a spirit of fear, but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.” Many prophetic words are being released in this time to prepare hearts for what the Lord is doing. He is calling His Bride, the Church, to be ready and come forth. “Let us rejoice and give Him glory, for the marriage of the Lamb has come, and His bride has made herself ready.” (Rev 19:7)
Lana Vaswer is a prophetic voice from Australia. The Lord has been giving her many prophetic dreams and visions to release to the body concerning the times that are upon us. Throughout scripture, the Lord has always used His prophets to declare the message to the people. Amos 3:7 says, “Surely the Lord GOD does nothing, unless He reveals His secret to His servants the prophets.” These prophets are to be preparing the body of Christ, the bride, to be ready to meet the bridegroom. If there are no Apostles and Prophets in the Church, how will we know how to get ready?
The prophetic word released from Lana Vawser reveals that the Lord is calling for a renewed fear of Him, repentance in the Church, as well as exposing all that is not of Him. The Lord is shaking the Church to bring them out of a place that has been consumed with everything but seeking God. Idols in the Church are being destroyed. The Church is going to be purged of all of its worldly passion. “He will sit as a refiner and purifier of silver, and he will purify the sons of Levi and refine them like gold and silver, and they will bring offerings in righteousness to the LORD.” (Malachi 3:3) Pride, arrogance and man’s wisdom will be removed and the Lord is bringing the Church to repentance to seek His ways and His wisdom. They will seek to walk in holiness and righteousness again.
Vawser says the Lord told her to tell the Church, “Do not walk like an Egyptian”. Egypt isn’t just a physical location but symbolically speaks of “limiting God”. The Hebrew word is Mitsrayim (H4714) which means double straights. It’s derived from the Hebrew word Matsor (H4692) meaning, in the sense of a limit. [1] So the Church has been limiting God for years, and because of this, the body is still living in bondage.
The coronavirus has gripped and consumed the world. It has affected the lives of millions. While the enemy is using it for destruction, the Lord in His mercy is using it to bring His people back into alignment. Just as God sent the plagues in Egypt as His mercy to get the people to repent. “I am the LORD, and I will bring you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians, and I will rid you of their bondage, and I will redeem you with a stretched out arm, and with great judgments.” (Exo 6:6) The Israelites were slaves under Pharaoh. The Hebrew word Pharaoh is (H6547) Paroh, which means “great double house”. [2] It is speaking of those who are double-minded. They don’t have the mind of Christ, because they have lost the truth. Many in the Church have lost the ability to see the deeper, spiritual meaning or revelation of the scriptures. They have mixed in false doctrines and polluted the Word. God is done with the double minded man. The Word says, he is unstable in all his ways. (Jam 1:8) God is done with the limitations placed on Him..
This is not a time for destruction but restoration. “Come, and let us return unto the Lord: for He has torn, and He will heal us; He has smitten, and He will bind us up.” (Hos 6:1) There is healing, restoration and forgiveness happening in families. This time has been given to be used to bring connection back where it was once lost. It is to be used for preparation.
We must be sure we are in position for what is about to take place. To make sure hearts have surrendered in humility and we are seeking God and the return of His glory.
Nothing is going to return as normal. “For behold, I create new heavens and a new earth. And the former things shall not be remembered or come into mind.” (Isa 65:17) God isn’t creating a new planet earth. The earth speaks of us, as Adam was created of the dust of the ground (Gen 2:7). Heaven isn’t a place somewhere in the sky. It is where God dwells. [3] God wants to dwell in us, heaven and earth becoming one. We are about to see a move of God as never experienced before. “But as it is written: “Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, nor have entered into the heart of man the things which God has prepared for those who love Him.” (1C0 2:9)
The Lord is coming in all His Glory! He has been waiting for His people to get ready and the time has come. It is a serious time. Vawser said it was time for Isaiah 6. Isaiah said he was a man of unclean lips when he saw the Lord. This is speaking of those who realize they don’t have the truth. They don’t understand the mysteries of the kingdom and need their speech to be purified. It will require eyes to see and ears to hear in order to be prepared for what the Spirit of God is doing. It will require a circumcision of the heart to remove the fat, or flesh. Removing the carnal ways of man and returning to the truth of the Word.
“Blessed [happy and to be envied] are those who cleanse their garments, that they may have the authority and right to [approach] the tree of life and to enter through the gates into the city.” Rev 22:14 (AMP)
