Breadcrumbs

The prophetic journal of a mildly prophetic girl. Come interact with the episodes over on Instagram at “mildlyprophetic.” I want to hear what He’s been saying to you too.

61. ✷The Gift of Intercession✷ {Isaac}

I grew up hearing about "prayer warriors." I pictured them as old women tucked inside a closet, bowed down and rocking back and forth as they prayed. There are definitely powerful old women who do just that, but I now know that prayer warriors are a wide spectrum. Isaac is a unique example of a young man whose faithful prayers bring change.

55. ✷The Gift of Prophet✷ {Sarah}

There are three main lists of gifts that show up in the Bible. Two of the lists name the gift of "prophecy," but one names the gift of "prophet." That's a very important distinction, and my friend Sarah is the right person to talk us through it. Of all the gifts, this one has been most neglected, misunderstood, abused... The Church needs to reengage with what the Bible actually says about the gift of prophet and prophecy, and then create space for the prophets that are hiding all over the place to come home.

54. ✷The Gift of Mercy✷ {Amy}

There are people in the world who walk around with a sheen of tears in their eyes. Chances are, they are the merciful-- those who carry the deep compassion of Jesus around inside them. It's a heavy gift, but a beautiful one.Amy speaks about her gift of mercy. And, yes, she had tears in her eyes many times throughout the interview.

53. ✷The Gift of Exhortation✷ {Jo}

The gift of exhortation is a lot like being a cheerleader with a kick. It's a word gift that inspires and compels and draws the family of God forward, upward, outward. It sooths and agitates all at once. An exhorted is like a commander that rallies the troops for action, bracing them for the hard road ahead, but inspiring them with the promise of the good good road beyond it.

67. The Sifting & Sorting Place

This is the season of the in-between place where we sift and sort ourselves, and our homes so we can move into the next thing with only the things that matter. ✷2 Chronicles 29: The priests and Levites began their work on the first day of the first month. It took them one week to purify the courtyards of the temple and by the eighth day of the month they reached the porch of the LORD. For another week they purified the temple of the LORD itself.✷Isaiah 30: Therefore this iniquity and guilt will be to you like a broken section of a high wall, bulging out and ready to fall, whose crash will come suddenly and swiftly, in an instant.✷Isaiah 26:2 And the king of Assyria sent his military commander to King Hezekiah at Jerusalem with a large army. And he stood by the canal of the Upper Pool on the highway to the Fuller’s Field.✷Ezekial 1:1 ... as I was among the exiles by the Chebar canal, the heavens were opened, and I saw visions of God.

50. Resentment

Journal Notes: As the year crosses over from one to the other, I’m being asked to leave some baggage behind, and the Holy Spirit couldn’t have been more clear with me about what that baggage is: RESENTMENT. ✸ Psalm 51: I recognize my rebellion... The sacrifice you desire is a broken spirit. ✸ Psalm 32: Do not be like a ...mule that needs a bit and bridle to keep it under control. Instagram @mildlyprophetic

49. Royal Robes

Journal Notes: The Lord has been showing me royal robes lately. He is speaking about His royal children who are too uncomfortable to put robes that may make them stand out too much. But it’s time.

48. Beauty will call to them

Journal Notes: I have a vision of two carved masonry stones. The left one blooms with a blue flower. The Lord speaks to me about beauty and how it calls to the hearts of us all. ✸ Ecclesiastes 3:11 He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also planted eternity in the human heart...

47. Beware the Little Foxes {and mice}

Journal Notes: Bears, foxes, mice... The Lord is speaking about cleaning house down to the smallest pesky invaders. He is saying these small things distract from the work of JOINING He wants to do in the House of Ministry. ✸ Song of Songs 2:15 • Let us catch the little foxes that spoil the vineyard and ruin the vine, for our vineyard is in bloom... ✸ Ephesians 4:16 • From Him the whole body [the church, in all its various parts], joined and knitted firmly together by what every JOINT supplies, when each part is working properly, causes the body to grow and mature... ✸ Ephesians 2 • In him the whole building is JOINED together and rises to become a holy temple in the Lord. And in him you too are being built together to become a dwelling in which God lives by his Spirit. Instagram @mildlyprophetic

46. Naked and Unashamed

Journal Notes: An exposing is coming to us all. The Lord has been preparing me for the day the Pharisees come to scrutinize me in court. He’s been getting me all washed and cleaned so that when that time comes, I will stand naked and unashamed. ✸ Ephesians 5:25-27 • Christ loved the church and gave Himself up for her ... having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word,  so that He might present her to Himself in glorious splendor, without spot or wrinkle...that she would be set apart.  ✸ Ephesians 5•13 • But all things become visible when they are exposed by the light, for it is light that makes everything visible.  ✸ Luke 12: 1-3  • Be continually on your guard against the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy. But there is nothing concealed that it will not be revealed, nor so hidden that it will not be made known. ✸ Mark 7: 1-9 • Now the Pharisees and some of the scribes ... gathered around Him,  and they had seen that some of His disciples ate their bread with [ceremonially] impure hands... So the Pharisees and scribes asked Jesus, “Why do Your disciples not live their lives according to the tradition of the elders, but eat their bread with unwashed hands?”  He replied, “Rightly did Isaiah prophesy about you hypocrites... ✸ Job 1 • There was a man in the land of Uz whose name was Job; and that man was blameless and upright, and one who feared God... Then Satan answered the Lord ...Have You not put a hedge [of protection] around him and his house and all that he has, on every side? ...  put forth Your hand now and touch (destroy) all that he has, and he will surely curse You to Your face.” Instagram @mildlyprophetic

45. The Strongman & The Bear

Journal Notes: I'm given a handful of dreams on a theme. They all point to the Lord persistently asking me to hand over the last of my pride. We tend to keep our monsters of sin on a leash because they serve us in some earthly way, but beware. A beast on a leash will eventually lunge and bite. There is only one Strongman strong enough to deal with our monsters. ✸ Mark 5: the man lived in the tombs, and no one could bind him anymore, not even with chains... he tore apart the chains and broke the shackles into pieces, and no one was strong enough to subdue and tame him... Seeing Jesus from a distance, he ran up and bowed down before Him... Jesus, Son of the Most High God... I implore you ... do not torment me!” Instagram @mildlyprophetic

44. Dragon Hunting Season

Journal Notes: It’s dragon hunting season. We all have a dragon that knows how to prey on our deepest fears and insecurities, and it’s stalking us like we’re the last meal it’ll ever have. It’s time to name our dragons and ask the Lord how best to kill it.   ✷ Psalm 141 Set a guard, O Lord, over my mouth; Keep watch over the door of my lips [to keep me from speaking thoughtlessly]. Let the righteous [thoughtfully] strike (correct) me—it is a kindness [done to encourage my spiritual maturity]. It is anointing oil on the head; For my eyes are toward You, O God, the Lord; In You I take refuge; do not pour out my life nor leave me defenseless. Keep me from the jaws of the trap which they have set for me, And from the snares of those who do evil.

43. Spiritual Passport

Journal Notes: I have a vision of my new spiritual passport to travel with into the next thing. It's emblazoned with the word AHAL. This word is about what that means. ✸  Exodus 33: Moses used to take the Tent and set it up outside the camp, some distance away. He called it the Tent of Meeting. Anyone who sought God would go to the Tent of Meeting outside the camp. ✸  Numbers 12: Then the LORD came down in a pillar of cloud; he stood at the entrance to the tent … he said, “Listen to my words: “When there is a prophet among you, I, the LORD, reveal myself to them in visions, I speak to them in dreams. But this is not true of my servant Moses; he is faithful in all my house. With him I speak face to face, clearly and not in riddles; he sees the form of the LORD. Why then were you not afraid to speak against my servant Moses?” ✸Numbers 24: And Balaam raised his eyes and he saw Israel living in their TENTS tribe by tribe; and the Spirit of God came on him…. How fair are your TENTS, O Jacob, And your tabernacles, O Israel! Like valleys that stretch out, Like gardens beside the river, Like ALOES planted by the Lord, Like cedars beside the waters. Water [that is, great blessings] will flow from his buckets, And his offspring will live by many waters… Israel has strength like the wild ox… he lies down as a lion; And as a lioness, who dares to rouse him?

42. The Race & The Ribbon

Journal Notes: I dream of a race I can't compete in using my old strengths. Instead, I learn that the race can be "run" by sitting still and becoming friends with the one who wears the crown and holds the red ribbon.

41. The Cry of the Crow

Journal Notes: The Lord speaks about the Cry of the Crow and calling out from the Crow's Nest. ✸ Ezekiel 33: If I bring a sword on a land, and the people of the land take one man from among them and make him their watchman, and he sees the sword coming on the land, and he blows the trumpet and warns the people, then whoever hears... and does not take warning... his blood will be on his [own] head... But if the watchman sees the sword coming and does not blow the trumpet and the people are not warned, and the sword comes and takes any one of them... I will require his blood from the watchman’s hand.’

40. Crooked Monsters (for a crooked generation)

Journal Notes: So many dreams and visions about a multi-headed dragon, and a moonlit huntress. It's time to talk about Leviathan and Artemis, and their twisted partnership in the earth.

39. Bare Soles

Journal Notes: I dream of climbing the steps of a temple with bare feet. He speaks of the barefoot service of the Zadok priesthood in the upper/inner rooms of the temple. ✸Ezekiel 43 And the glory and brilliance of the Lord entered the temple by way of the gate facing toward the east.... And He [the Lord] said to me, “Son of man, this is the place of My throne and the place of the soles of My feet, where I will dwell in the midst of the sons (descendants) of Israel forever... ✸Exodus 3:5 “Do not come any closer,” God said. “Take off your sandals, for the place where you are standing is holy ground.” ✸Ezekiel 43: 8 When they placed their threshold next to my threshold and their doorposts beside my doorposts, with only a wall between me and them, they defiled my holy name ✸Revelation 3:12 “He who overcomes, I will make him a pillar in the temple of My God, and he will not go out from it anymore ✸Isaiah 61:3 they may be called oaks of righteousness, the planting of the Lord, that he may be glorified.”

38. Year of Ascension

Journal Notes: I dream of a pearl staircase and the Lord speaks of 2024 as the year of Psalm 24-- A year of ASCENSION. ✸Psalm 24: Who will ascend the mountain of the Lord? Those with clean hands and a pure heart. Lift your heads...

37. Birthing (Let's finish well, little one)

Journal Notes: "Let's finish up well, little one," He said. He shows me the top branches of an oak tree and says "BIRTHING." Many of us are in the agony of a crowning season-- the last painful push before the birth. ✸ Psalm 22 {A cry of anguish} O my God, I call out by day, but You do not answer. And by night, but I find no rest. ✸ Psalm 24 (The King of Glory enters Zion} Who may ascend onto the mountain of the Lord? He who has clean hands and a pure heart... Instagram @mildlyprophetic
