We love to love Him! In this season the Lord is calling us to Himself in the place of intimacy and abiding. There is an anointing oil being poured out for demonstrations of the Spirit's power through you! What a delight and joy to know our Father's face in increasing glory so that all may know Him.

Growing up into Godliness is the joy of the saints as He uses us to outwork His love in the earth. His invitation to us is to behold Him and be transformed into the image of His son (2 Cor. 3:18); to receive from the perpetual river of love that flows from the throne of God, ministering to us and through us.    

This episode will woo you back into His love as we enter further into the desire of God for us, enabling us to ascend into glory. This is the master key of intimacy! Enjoy this teaching from our School of Prayer and Devotion where we journey into the depth and desire of God for us!

Katie Dunstan is a well-spring of life. Truly, living waters flow from her inner-most being. Katie is a First Nations prophet who was radically saved, transformed and delivered by Jesus Christ and is now a minister of His love, power and glory. In this episode she speaks of the importance of community and spiritual alignment as well as bringing insight into God's desire for all nations, tribes and tongues.

This is the third in a series of prophetic words that Lord has given me for 2024.  The Great Southlands are ripe for harvest. God is thrusting forth labourers into the harvest field to reap the harvest of nations as His spirit is being poured out in significant ways in this hour. There is an urgent call to prayer and He is binding hearts together in love to ensure that nothing usurps the fullness of all He desires to release in this great outpouring Australia, New Zealand and the islands of the sea are being brought into.

This is the second in a series of prophetic words the Lord has given me for 2024. "This is your ascension" is a word for the Body of Christ. He is calling us to ascend the hill of the Lord in unity and purity, according to Ps. 24. As we do, glory will be our portion! Please meditate on and pursue the Lord as He leads in regards to this. Share it with others as well.

This is the first in a series of prophetic words the Lord has given me for 2024. Firstly, is His word to you personally. "I will restore all." I hope this encourages you greatly and positions your faith to receive from the Lord as we head into 2024.  You can watch the word as it was released at Glory City Church here: https://youtu.be/jOG5t99cgcc?si=v-rYN0NIq8xwp8XT

I am thrilled to bring this episode to you; it is for everybody! My guest, Miriam Evans, is delightfully authentic and real. You will love her childlikeness and the simplicity in which she unpacks the prophetic, revival and doing kingdom life with family. We had a little Otis guest right when she was prophesying about everyone being included in the Kingdom. A stunning picture of how our Father operates.  Fore more about Miriam go to revivalmandate.org  For more about Sarah go to sarahcheesman.com

This episode is drenched in prophetic wisdom. Everything Ps. Stacey spoke about is, I believe, on the forefront of what the Lord is doing in His body right now. The prophetic ministry and her expression in the local church is maturing and it's beautiful to behold as we come back to the simplicity of love and knowing Jesus. If you oversee the prophetic ministry in a local church, I highly recommend you listening  or watching this.

Jo is one of the happiest prophets (and one of my most favourite people) ever. She moves in extraordinary love and power that sees people come to Jesus, healed and set free. You will enjoy her practical wisdom and everyday tools for walking with Jesus and bringing his prophetic insight to the earth that is instrumental for change! Jo is an amazing equipper of the saints who travels globally and has a heart to see nations won to Jesus! 

If you love intercession, this is the episode for you! If you don't love intercession (yet), this is the episode for you! Filled with testimonies that will awaken hope, prophetic intercessor and friend, Melissa Medina, shares with such joy, clarity and insight, the amazing power of coming into agreement with the will of God for the earth through prayer. She's dynamite. This conversation is glorious. You will love it!

Jesus shares his secrets with his friends! And Jennifer does too! So come on in, friends, for this rich episode dripping with insight and wisdom regarding the ways of the Spirit and how we can effectively partner with the word of the Lord.

It was my honour to be joined for this episode by an amazing prophet, Cindy Donaldson. The Holy Spirit has given her insight on how to position ourselves in these days to reap the harvest! SPOILER ALERT: He wants to use YOU! We've been promised nations as our inheritance and it's the season to arise and shine, and reap the harvest. You're going to love Cindy. She is so childlike in her approach to the Father and an absolute champion in the island nations, as she takes the Gospel to the ends of the earth!

Jesus Christ is the happiest person alive and wants you to experience the fullness of joy daily. He was anointed with the oil of joy beyond all of his companions (Ps. 45:6-7, Heb. 1:9) and we can receive the same anointing. Join Sarah as she teaches how to enter into the happiness that comes from heaven.

The Holy Spirit makes God's fatherhood real to us in order that we may prophesy from His heart of love to others out of the place of identity. In doing so, as ambassadors of the Kingdom, we bestow honour on those He calls us to minister to and call them up higher into He says they are. As sons and daughters of the Most High God, hearing His voice is your birthright and joy!

God did extraordinary things in my time in the Kingdom of Tonga; the land of my dreams. The Lord was very clear in my assignment, according to Gen. 1, to release a word of light and life to the land and to the Bride. I'm used to ministering at conferences and being on the prayer line - things I love - but this trip found my feet on the pavement in prayer and meeting with parliamentarians, dignitaries and businessmen and women. Come hear of my adventures in the land of the new day as He opened up opportunities to speak to the nation in more ways than one!

Episodes like this one is why I love the podcast. Speaking with friends who walk in friendship with the Holy Spirit is a complete delight and joy. The gifts of the Spirit complement and work in tandem with one another and Ps. Tony Thompson's life exemplifies this. He operates in the gift of healing and prophecy, among other gifts, and eloquently breaks down how the Spirit of God flows in prophecy and the word of knowledge to minister healing.You will feel 10 feet tall after listening to the Happy Grandfather who speaks with such kindness, authority and wisdom from the Holy Spirit. Pro Tip: Position yourself to receive from the prophetic word he releases and you will posture yourself for the days ahead and come into agreement with what the Lord is doing in the earth.

The longing of the heart of God is towards us. His voice, like the sound of many rushing waters, is beckoning us to come; deeper still, further still. Yield. Let go of control. Surrender. Make room for Him. In this episode Sarah releases a prophetic exhortation to go into to the deep places of God and discover the glory of His face - your soul's celebration.

Roma Waterman is on the pod this week and it was an absolute dream to have her! If you're hungry to be found in the place of abiding, this is the episode for you. You'll learn how to engage with the Spirit of God through the practices of prayer leading to greater stewardship of His presence in your life. Roma is fun, bold, insightful and passionate about the pursuit of Jesus. I could talk to her all day...

The Lord is beautifully coupling the prophetic and evangelism in this season and wants to re-invigorate our hearts to simply share the Good News of the Gospel with the ones he loves; people everywhere. So put those Gospel shoes on and get moving as the King of Glory comes through you!

The nations belong to the Lord! As his children we have the immense privilege and joy of partnering with him, and one another, to see his kingdom established in the land we live. Prophetic leader, Steven Springer, explains so beautifully how, as ones who have been commanded to steward the earth, we can love the land and release destiny, life and freedom over it with immense glory to follow! Steven is simply wonderful and you're going to love this episode!

This is the word I have received for 2023. I believe the Father is calling His body to die to self. There is a cutting away of the flesh that He's bringing so that He might be glorified in us and through us. There is a call to the bride to go low as we are met by the Spirit of the Fear of the Lord. There is a glorious celebration in letting go of all the things He has never called you to be and come out from them and be set apart to the purposes of God, for He is about to come through you!

Oh that we would love Him as He desires to be loved! The Spirit of the Fear of the Lord is being released to His body in this season to enable us to recognise that He is moving in our midst as Christ the Lord. This episode is a celebration of the year that has been and a call to position ourselves in surrender for the magnificent days ahead.

There's nothing sweeter than His presence. The place of habitation and abiding with the Holy Spirit is your most natural state of being. Learn from Anthony, as he shares the value of the presence of God and aligning our lives unto the purpose of His face.

"You have said, “Seek my face.” My heart says to you, “Your face, LORD, do I seek.”" Ps. 27:8 There is a beckoning from the Spirit inviting us into the pursuit of the One we were created for. Deep longing. Divine design. Eyes locked on Love. He is our exceedingly great reward. If you're hungry, desperate to burn with His consuming love, this episode will spur you on in your pursuit of glory.

Ps. Katherine Ruonala has absolutely taken ahold of the promise of the Father to make all things work together for her good (Rom. 8:28) She shares, from her own experience, how to move out of a victim mentality and exchange your former shame, pain and disgrace for double recompense from the Father. The wisdom she gives isn't just great advice, it's tools for living victoriously and will impact your way of operating if you allow it to do so. 10/10 would recommend!

The place of His presence is what you were created for. We live in the New Covenant where the presence of God not only dwells among us, but gloriously within us! It's this reality that is our greatest honour and deepest delight. Join Sarah as she discusses how to cultivate the dwelling place of the God, in you, the hope of glory!

The promise for every believer is the magnificent gift of the Holy Spirit - the indwelling of God. It's so good it will blow your mind! Join me for this wonderful conversation with Larry Sparks as he explains and ministers this precious promise to us.

“If you are single in vision, your whole body will be full of light.” Matt 6:22. This is a prophetic call to the lovers of Jesus. He is calling us into the gaze of His eyes, and in surrender, leave behind who we once were and embrace unbroken fellowship with Him; the lover of our soul. Allow this invitation from the Holy Spirit to mark you, to change you, like it's changed me.

The Holy Spirit is revealing the beauty of King Jesus to us in this season. Join me to celebrate Jesus and be ministered to as you set your affection on Him! He is beautiful! sarahcheesman.com

The Bible reveals that there are many dimensions to the Holy Spirit's character, personality, and power. “The Spirit of the Lord shall rest upon Him, The Spirit of wisdom and understanding, the Spirit of counsel and might, The Spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the Lord.” - Isaiah 11:2 This episode is a masterclass on the seven-fold Spirit of God. Perhaps you've heard of this but have a limited understanding as to what it means! That was me before the Lord supernaturally lead me to Keith Miller's book which subsequently brought about this conversation. I tell the story in the pod! Join me and special guest Keith Miller as we unpack this wonderful revelation of who the Holy Spirit is and His great desire to move through you and me. “And from the throne proceed lightnings, thunderings, and voices. Seven lamps of fire were burning before the throne, which are the seven Spirits of God.” - Revelation 4:5

God speaks your language! When it comes to teaching on the prophetic, one of the most frequent questions I'm asked is, "What does it mean?" This could be referring to a dream, a sequence of numbers, a colour, sign or symbol. Join me and my friend, Jodie Hughes, as we discuss her new book and unpack Biblical understanding and insight into the prophetic voice of the Father who loves to speak to His kids.

Have you found what you were created for? Recently the Father revealed to me that the desire for one thing (Ps. 27:4), leads us to the discipline of one thing (Luke 10:42) which releases us into our destiny - one thing! (Phil.3:13) And in the most glorious way we find ourselves back at the beginning; simply desiring one thing (Ps. 27:4). This episode will unlock a greater longing in your heart to search out the deep things of God as you discover your purpose, hidden in Christ with God.

You're going to love her fresh insight, understanding of the ways of God and maturity in the things of the Spirit.

"Do not despise prophecies, but test everything; hold fast what is good." 1 Thes. 5:20-21. It is vitally important that as we are activated into hearing the voice of God, we are also activated into biblically weighing the prophetic word spoken. When a word is released to us, we have the precious Holy Spirit, the revealer of mysteries, to guide us and instruct us on how and if we should receive the word. In this episode I break down how to biblically weigh a prophetic word and empower you to receive or reject the word as the Holy Spirit instructs you.

Megan is a prophetic songbird who lives with a heart and ear inclined towards His voice. The secret to her sweet melodies - intimacy and friendship. From a traditional Christian background, Megan was awakened to the things of the Spirit and it radically transformed her life.

Megan is full of wisdom and revelation and the simplicity with which she shares and the power of her testimony will cause you to see and understand the Holy Spirit in ways you haven't before.

God is raising up the Aboriginal, Torres Strait and South Sea Islander voice in this time and it was my utmost joy and honour to host Ps. Ada Boland, an Aboriginal pastor and prophet. We're better together and Ada's passion for the bride of Christ is evident as she is adding her voice to the proclamation of revival in the earth. You will love her humility and childlike joy as she explains the significance of the voices of the land in this hour.

In this hour the earth is desperate for the saints to take up their authority in prayer. We have the answer to every physical, emotional and spiritual need of humanity through the word of God, on our tongue, that is effective to pull down enemy strongholds and establish His kingdom.

It will infuse with courage and hope for the future, especially as she prophesies over you!
