Ready to Run!

Today is our last day in Abu Dhabi and we head to Dubai to fly out on Monday. I am reflecting on how to end this portion of this writing to go on to the next phase of this blog........we are ready to run. I say "we" because I feel that it is time, whether we feel like it or not. It is time. Time to run and not look back on all the stuff. Time to run with grace, in humility but in power and authority. Time to run and I,  for one, am ready. I am ready for God to lead the way in all of this and transition us to our next assignment by His Spirit. I am excited about all that there is to write in the coming days - what we have seen and observed and what has been revealed to us over the past 10-20 years of our travels.

Where has the past 10 years or more taken us......I prophesy this out over my life and I pray that you prophesy over yours. Out of the desert and into the nations, the cities, the countries......into your destiny . I will sound like the culmination to the Amazing Race but here goes.......

After 10 years or more and from traveling to these countries where we have lived, visited, prayed, observed, loved, and where we have set our foot on to bring glory to His name..............from the United Arab Emirates, Oman, Bahrain, Egypt, Russia, Finland, Sweden, Estonia, Netherlands, France, Italy, Poland, Ireland, Switzerland, England, Philippines, Japan, China, Kenya, Uganda, Ivory Coast, Canada, Trinidad.........................and now coming full circle back to California to start a work for the Lord. To build up His kingdom in His glory and to take teams to the nations.

What is your calling? What is your destiny? Prophecy it now and call into existence that which is not as though it were by the Spirit of God and walk by faith and not by sight into your future where all is settled by His hand. You need only to follow Him. I am not doing this to hype anything up. It is time.

I have so much in me to speak to regarding these years of travel and exploration. All  that God has put in us regarding His kingdom now and in the coming days. Speaking forth without presumption and without hype, without a need for reputation or honor to our name, we humbly submit to our Savior to carry His truth to a world in chaos and align with His plan and purpose for our lives. How about you?

We end this season with humility and joy, amidst the pain of rejection which has humbled our heart to trust Him. Amidst the pain of grief and loss over the years we look forward to taking off our mourning clothes and put on the joy that has been promised. We look for that city, where the builder and maker is God, serving Him wholeheartedly and with complete abandonment. Having nothing to prove and nothing to lose, we bless and forgive all those who have hurt us purposely and in ignorance, assuming things about us without truly wanting to know our hearts. We in turn ask forgiveness for any thing we ourselves have done and we know that all is under the power of His blood which takes it all and casts it away so that we may walk forward in newness and freshness of purpose and destiny.

I prophecy out to each of you reading this simply to MOVE. MOVE whether it is one step, one inch, one foot, one miles, one nation, one city, one house.......but MOVE and He will indeed walk with you and talk with you. You were not created to exist but to live and move and have your being in Him. Take risks and take the adventure that Christianity has promised as we live in Him. Oh how He is worth it..............how glorious and wonderful He is to call us and choose us for His purpose in the earth today. You were born for such a time as this. Relinquish your throne and allow Him to be Lord over your whole life and see what the future has for you that He holds in His hand.....onward.............to California and to the next season.....come on.......go with me. As a prophet I say..............it is time.  NOW.

  1. Thank you, Debra! :) My heart is bubbling for joy when reading this. The sentence: "We were not created to exist but to live and to MOVE and to have our being in Him!" !" is like highlighted under my eyes and my spirit is just saying YES! Hallelujah!!! It's time to move! Even an inch or small step... whatever... but to move... I take this Word! Amen!!!! /Tarja

  2. Many thanks to you, Debra, for your example of faithfulness in the midst of great opposition which we know is always directed against the manifestation of His Kingdom realities...You will be a vessel to wake up and shake up all that is out of alignment with His living Word and His Spirit. We do know our Pattern, and those that know their God will do exploits in His Name and will be carrying the joy that is set before each one in Him.

    Thank you for the continual sowing of encouragement that will awaken many to say Yes to His truth alone!

    Multiplied blessings and welcome home!!

  3. This is a sweet powerful word, and it resonates strong in me-- move, move, move! Especially this part: [we are ready to run. I say "we" because I feel that it is time, whether we feel like it or not. It is time. Time to run and not look back on all the stuff. Time to run with grace, in humility but in power and authority. Time to run and I, for one, am ready. I am ready for God to lead the way in all of this and transition us to our next assignment by His Spirit] Wow and amen!
