The Church Outside the Box
Recently, I was preaching a sermon about God moving outside the box in homes and on lands in 2024. As I was preaching, a demon manifested in a woman and told me to stop it! The demon continued to speak, saying, "Stop the sermon! Stop it right now! I said stop!" But I continued preaching all the more.
When a devil is trying to get me to be quiet on a subject, should I cater? Should I be ashamed? Should I do what it commands me? If a devil didn't like my message about the Church getting out of the box in 2024, then perhaps you, the reader, can understand how much more we need to disobey the command of that evil spirit and obey God by moving outside the box and the four walls of the church! This message of the Church going outside of the box is clearly a threat to the enemy.
God is wanting us to MOVE OUT OF THE BOX IN 2024. It will be a kairos moment for the Body of Christ to see what the enemy is doing and contradict it.
Recall that God came in between the cherubim in the ark of the covenant (Exodus 25:22). All along, I can imagine that God really wanted His covenant out of the ark and into people like you and me. He abandoned it millenniums ago because He wanted to be put inside you and me, friend! We should let out our love in 2024, and let our own communities become our mission fields.
A Year of Rest and a Time to Pray for Israel and the Church
This next coming year will be a year for the Church to remember. This past year has been a massive year of contention with the enemy of the Church and Israel, but 2024 will be the year of rest, even as we demonstrate the works of God like never before. There shall be a rest in our work in the harvest fields, because we are going to become saturated with the presence of God like never before.
We can clearly see that ancient spirits are attacking the nation of Israel right now. We can also see how much spiritual attack has come against the Church in 2023. Remember, it is the "Root" that supports us (Romans 11:18). What affects Israel in the natural affects us as the Gentiles, since we are grafted into Israel's tree! We need to pray for Israel and pray for the Body of the Messiah!
Broadcast Good
How do we overcome evil? We overcome evil with good! We have seen 2023 be a year of the enemy's display. There have been displays of sin on viral social media videos. There have been displays of shoplifting and of stores being terrorized. There have been displays of the same sex agenda everywhere in the media. The Lord says that it's time for the Church to broadcast GOOD in order to contend with the enemy's displays of bad. Broadcast goodness on planes! Broadcast goodness and kindness in stores! As we go and bless and show the world kindness, gentleness and compassion—and as we share our testimonies with the world—there will be an overcoming of evil.
Recall Jesus' words, "Blessed are the gentle, for they will inherit the earth" (Matthew 5:5). We can actually take dominion here as we display public gentleness and kindness, praying for the sick publicly and worshiping the Lord in the streets with other Believers. Signs and wonders will spread everywhere in 2024 as the meek inherit the earth and release God's glory.
A Year to "Cry Aloud" and "Spare Not"
The devil is working a plan to silence the Church again! We have to speak and be heard. When that demon manifested in the woman and told me to stop the sermon, I pondered how many evil spirits have been trying to quiet the Church over the last few years. Just think about a mask. A mask over your face quiets your voice. I remember ordering food with employees wearing masks, and I could never understand what they were saying if they had quiet voices, causing me ask questions like, "What? What did you say? Can you remove the mask so I can hear you?" (Photo via Flickr)
We have permission to be loud this next year in sharing Jesus outside the four walls of the church. As you can clearly see, the demon who spoke through that woman is showing you and me that we are a threat if we move outside the box. No one needs to give us permission to speak, because we have permission from Jesus in Matthew 10:27: "What I tell you in the dark, speak in the daylight; what is whispered in your ear, proclaim from the roofs." Jesus stated that if His disciples were to be quiet, the very rocks would cry out (Luke 19:40). In fact, I see that if the Church will go preach the message of Jesus in 2024, we can actually TAME THE TECTONIC PLATES and the rocks in the earth, and avoid catastrophic earthquakes this next year as we boldly speak up and pray. Don't let the rocks cry out. We should be like Isaiah 58:1 and "cry aloud" and "spare not." Tell people to come out of sin and into Yeshua the Messiah's glorious light! Hallelujah!
Showing Wild Love in 2024 & Combating the Agenda of Paganism & Witchcraft
One of the reasons why the Church should show wild love in 2024 is because there is an agenda to make paganism and witchcraft the fastest growing religion in America—but it isn't, Christianity is. Many will be deceived by this wave of New Age and paganism, and New Age will increasingly begin to attempt infiltrate the charismatic Church, causing many Believers to practice both New Age and Christianity. We don't need to rub crystals or read tarot cards, Believers! We need the oil of Heaven to rub us! Can I get a Hallelujah? Repent of New Age now, if you have been practicing it, and God's light will deliver you from darkness.
There is also a demonic agenda to make Islam the world religion right now, so we need to run in the rest of God, and the Church needs to go viral.
A Revelation 5:9 Revival Birthed from Intimacy
Starting in January 2024, there will be intercession, prayer and birth pangs that will come upon the Bride, which will literally fill the incense bowls of Heaven, and they will be tipped and poured out in the nations. It's a Revelation 5:9 revival. It's all about the seal being opened and rejoicing over the slain Lamb, and how His Blood purchased the nations. This won't be a season of prayer based off of monotony or duty, but it will be a joyous season of prayer. It will be happy intercession! This new worship and prayer movement will lead to one of the greatest outpourings of the Holy Spirit a generation has ever seen! The years 2024-2025 will see a MOVEMENT, and there will be a massive youth revival. Campuses will be on fire for God.
Remember, the oil could not be given by the foolish virgins in Matthew 25, because you can't get this from a man; it has to come from intimacy with God Himself. This revival is about to begin if men and women will get on their altars that they rebuild for the Lord in their homes. It is time to entertain the Lord and spend less time being entertained. If we do, we will become so saturated with the glory of God that God will literally overshadow our entire communities with glory. The oil of intimacy will cause the flames to burn on us all the brighter, like an oil fire!
Remember, Samuel, who was anointed as a prophet, finally ran to God instead of Eli when he was called (1 Samuel 3). The tendency for much of the Church has been to run to man when we perceive God is speaking to us. How many of us are doing that? We have to run directly to God! Come on, somebody! If He calls you, run to Him and talk to Him!
No Toleration: God Is Cleaning House
The end of this year has been all about confronting the prophets of Baal; cleansing the pulpit from compromise, and cleansing the Church from control and Christian witchcraft; not tolerating Jezebel, and getting more undignified for the Lord, just as David did—even as the Michals shame us for our love for God (2 Samuel 6:22). There shall be new alignments coming, and old alignments that bear no fruit are being broken off.
It's been a year of purging and great pruning in preparation for what is coming in 2024. God is going to continue cleaning His house, as the house of God bridles its tongue and removes slander and gossip from their midst, as well as any false 'Jesus' they have made in their image and worshiped. They will return to the Lord and worship the real Jesus Christ, as the Bride rediscovers the power of the blessing and not the curse.
2023 has been a year where the devils have tried to prepare gallows for Mordecais in the Church, but this next year, God is going to hang Haman on his own gallows that he prepared for us. The Michals will be dealt with in the Church, and the Davids—or, prophetically speaking, "the anointed" in the Body—will enter rest (2 Samuel 7).
The Power of the Blessing and Not the Curse
The enemy knows the power of the tongue. There is much cursing going on right now. Spells, curses, potions and bewitchments are pouring out from covens all over the streets of America, and over their communities and cities. Remember how Balaam was hired to curse Israel? It shows how powerful the tongue is. I believe the Church needs to be praying in tongues, especially in 2024. In fact, I believe praying in tongues is going to be so vital for the coming year that as we do it, the mysteries of God will be declared over the earth.
We as the Body will speak and learn to bless the earth and the food supply, cleansing our food; bless the water we drink, bless our enemies and bless the lost to find Christ. (Photo via Pexels)
As witchcraft (curses, spells, potions, etc.) increases and becomes a household practice in some cities in the US, the Bride will arise, bless and speak life and truth. They will break the powers of witchcraft and bless their cities, bless their leaders, bless the economy, bless their pastors, bless ministries and bless bodies. God wants to empty wheelchairs and sick beds. Healings will come as we bless, BLESS, BLESS! Bless our homes, bless our marriages and bless our children.
God's Hidden Network of Intercession, Prayer and Discipleship
While we were sleeping, satanism was growing. During the last few years, there has been a resurgence of witchcraft and satanism. They have all been meeting in secret—secret societies in homes and lands. God wants to contradict this with prophets meeting in homes and lands, and in secret. God is going to rise on His people, and through this hidden network of intercession, prayer and discipleship, we will strike at once, and curses will lift off of cities! We need to multiply right now!
Home Group Meetings and the Road to "De-Mask-Us"
Many churches are going to begin meeting in homes in 2024, and there will be a massive shift towards community. I see both the building and the Church, but there will be a massive shift towards home meetings.
Over the next few years, we need to pray against the next "disease of the week" as the enemy tries to mask us again. But we will walk down the road to "De-mask-us"! The miracles are going to be so wild in these home meetings, and deliverance will be everywhere. True apostles will rise up and plant these home group meetings everywhere in 2024, causing a faster multiplication of discipleship and salvations. The apostolic is about to be unleashed, led by servant leaders.
I actually saw a vision of the glory coming so strongly in these home meetings, where they will come together and break bread. And there was something about there not being enough food... but the food will actually multiply as a sign that Jesus, the Bread of Life, is more than enough; it's Acts 2:46!
2024 Will Be a Red Year!
Red Victories:
There will be red victories at voting time.
The Red Planet:
People all over the world will begin to hear about Mars, and about Mars exploration becoming more and more possible as we dream about commercial flights to Mars. The planning stages will start to take place in the year 2024, and a crew will be sent to Mars by the end of this decade. There will even be movies in Hollywood and documentaries about Mars.
A Red Stop and a Return:
God wants to bring the color red to our attention. Red, to us in the states, can represent a stop (like a red stop sign or stop light). It's a call to stop, repent and turn to Jesus. 2024 will be a year of "stop and return to the Lord."
"Come, let us return to the Lord. For He has torn us, but He will heal us; He has wounded us, but He will bandage us." (Hosea 6:1)
It's both Hosea 6:1 and it's June 1 (6/1). Yes, June! The summer of 2024 will see a revival unlike anything we have ever witnessed in America, and a time of great rejoicing for the Church.
Red China:
The government of China will continue their demonic agenda to try to infiltrate the US with land purchasing in an attempt to steal our freedoms, but revival shall spread like a contagion in China that cannot be stopped. It will be like an inside job, and even red China and red nations will see revival.
The Red Blood of Jesus:
The Lord is going to cover the United States with His Blood, and America will be blood red, even as the time of the lunar eclipse in March comes, and the moon turns red from the light. April's total eclipse over the US will be a time to stop and return to the Lord.
There will be a massive shift in the Church, where we will begin preaching on the Blood of Jesus again.
How do we overcome? "And they overcame him by the Blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, and they did not love their lives to the death." (Revelation 12:11, emphasis added)
Meetings, Gatherings and Revivals!
By the spring of 2024, there will be a massive resurgence of tent meetings, outdoor meetings and gatherings. The lost are coming home! Revivals in parks will occur, and deliverance in fields will increase. There will be protests in the streets by the Bride against control and witchcraft in the government, both past and present, and they will rejoice and dance in the streets like David danced before the ark of the Lord.
In closing, let me ask you this: Will you be one of the keepers of the oil that will move outside the four walls of the church this year? I hope we can do this together!
