Word of the Lord received on January 2, 2023:
Praise be to God in the highest, and on Earth peace and goodwill toward men. Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty, who was and is and is to come; who rules from a throne of righteousness; who has extended His hand of grace, and to His Kingdom there is no end...
What You Sow, You Shall Reap
The Spirit of the Lord says this day, "Labor pangs have indeed begun, MY children. They have begun to make themselves known – not only in areas of your nation, but in your lives."
The Spirit of the Lord says this day, "What was conceived in the years past, what was planted and tilled last year, shall indeed put forth a crop this year," says the Lord. "What you have sown, you will most definitely reap the harvest in accordance to your deed and actions and obedience to the Lord. For if you have sown deception and greed, you will most certainly reap such being returned unto you," says the Lord.
"If you have sown manipulating and driving out and bringing forth to further your interests, your interests shall sink in 2023. For there shall be no harvest upon dry, parched land, and you shall wander those wilderness areas until you so choose to stop your childish games and ways and GROW UP in ME," says the Lord.
"For those who have tilled and planted and been faithful servants; who have not gone rogue; who have not attempted to piggyback or take someone else's harvest – the blessings meant for them you have slipped in, and attempted to steal. Your seeds shall be taken from you," says the Lord. "Your operation shall buckle in the HEART of its conception," says the Lord.
"For the faithful servants who have tilled; who have allowed Me to go before them and open doors; who have not attempted to push and 'bang down' what is not theirs to enter – what the faithful have tilled in the year just past – you shall see incredible growth in this coming year. Growth and fruit you never expected shall come forth.
"I am the vine; you are the branches," says the Lord. "And the branches shall be able to bear much weight, and shall be fortified to do so," says the Lord.
Their System Does Not Determine Whether I Bless You
The Spirit of the Lord says this day, "Your economies are not a determinant of whether I bless MY children. I am far above the world economic system. I am far above the economic system of the United States. I am far above their trades and their merchants and corporate bodies and markets. I the Lord am not submitted to THEIR system. Therefore, MY children, their system does not determine whether I bless you; for MY ways are higher than your ways, and MY thoughts are higher than your thoughts. You shall see that in the coming year, for I AM FAITHFUL, and I will demonstrate that I will bless; I will provide; I will open doors that were locked for years.
"In the midst of an economic mess, MY children shall be provided for in unusual ways – through avenues they never thought [I] would provide. Do not look at what man has built; look at what I, the Lord, can build in your lives.
Many Are Entering a Very Weeded Area
"There are those who have gone the way of Cain, the way of Sodom, the way of the wilderness, the way of the West (Abraham and Lot). Delusions of grandeur indeed! And that delusion shall indeed bubble over in the coming year. For there are those who are not grounded enough and have been swayed to do such things for growth and notoriety, and I the Lord shall push back and put them in their place. For when you leave the path I have set before you for the wilderness and thorns and briars and weeds, many are entering a VERY WEEDED area, FILLED WITH WEEDS and not enough WHEAT.
The Name Above All Names
"For what is in a name?" says the LORD. "What does it benefit a man to gain the whole world yet lose HIS SOUL? What does it benefit him? The NAME has become more valuable to them than MY NAME," says the Lord. "MY NAME, ABOVE ALL, SHOULD BE AT THE HEAD; yet their names have swelled and filled with nothing more than hot air that is about to enter a decompression. (Photo via Flickr)
Two Kinds of Blooming, a Ticking Time Bomb and a Broken Pulpit
"You shall see two kinds of blooming: a field of wheat [and] a field of tares. And those who have mixed the tares with the wheat – well, their tares shall poison the wheat. The wheat supply shall be poisoned," says the Lord.
"For [there is] a toxic tonic many have drunk of more than once, and they have (in their brokenness) been given positions to lead when they are BROKEN INSIDE – A TICKING TIME BOMB," SAYS THE LORD. "They are broken; they are not set free; and that monster shall rear itself up, yet again, and make itself known.
"Yes, I, the Lord, am speaking to the Church. The pulpit is broken," says the Lord. "It is broken. It is compromised. It is complicit in sin and offerings to the false gods who have sold the Church a very broken monologue that has affected their dialogue to now call the things I, the Lord, call unholy, they now call 'right' and 'righteous.' And I, the Lord, say, 'ENOUGH!' For you do not serve a building; you serve ME, and they have made the building the most important piece. However, DEAD SOULS sit in the pews – none being given life, but something easy on the ears. And they steer away from strife and the boldness that so walked with Elijah and MOSES and Daniel and Deborah and Esther and David and Nathan – BOLDNESS...the shepherd now petrified of the sheep; the shepherd now pandering to the sheep, leading them to a waiting pack of wolves.
In the Valley of Decision
"This year, the Church shall be shaken. IT SHALL! For I, the Lord thy God, have decreed it, and it has gone forth on a scroll – the sifting and shaking of the Church. For its walls are void and empty of the Holy Spirit. The enemy himself has sat in their pews and listened and LAUGHED because there is NO power. For behold, I have given unto you the POWER – unto YOU – and yet you so easily have given it away. This is the year of decision, the valley of decision, for your nation and for your lives."
The Spirit of the Lord says this day, "DO NOT puff up leaders on the brink of catastrophe, for they are skimming the edge of the cliff, on the brink," says the Lord. "I, the Lord, DO NOT give a free pass to behave as you wish and be given such power; the enemy so does, and there is a severe price to pay for such. However, I the Lord do no such thing.
"You will have to carry MY mantle and BE BOLD ENOUGH TO STAND YOUR GROUND WITH MY WORD AND WHAT I, THE LORD, DEEM A UNION; WHAT I, THE LORD, DEEM RIGHTEOUS; WHAT I, THE LORD, DEEM HOLY.
"The ego will not hold and will deflate fast. You cannot ride on a name," says the Lord. "You cannot; for it is sputtering," says the Lord. "It is sputtering.
"Supporting what I, the Lord, call detestable is a mark and a stain on you, O leaders. Behold, I have set before you death and life; blessing and cursing. YOU must choose which path to embark down, for this is the fork in the road," says the Lord. "Choose wisely, for your future and positions depend on it."
A Scandal Running Down the East Coast
The Spirit of the Lord says this day, "A scandal that shall run down the East Coast shall make itself known into this year. It shall run down the East Coast CHECK points," says the Lord. "The heart of the nation shall be shaken and rocked by an event that shall send waves through the center of your nation."
Dueling Dakotas
The Spirit of the Lord says this day: "The Dakotas," says the Lord, "dueling Dakotas...and a resource shall come forth as well, as a leader shall arise with the mantle of wisdom that comes from ME, the Lord.
Scandal with the Iowa Caucus
"Scandal is coming with the Iowa caucus. It shall tie to DC committees," says the Lord.
Silicon Valley Is About to Get Rocked
"Silicon Valley is about to get rocked, literally, by the biggest scandal that has ever come forth. Others will pale in comparison," says the Lord, "as judgment has been issued against the gods of the Valley," says the Lord. "Tech shall sputter. (Photo via Wikimedia Commons)
Allow Me to Be Your Light
"GPS may show you where to go and where to turn; however, it cannot see what I, the Lord, can with what is on the horizon in your lives. Allow Me, the Lord, to be your light, to give you instruction, to show you where to turn and when to go and when to stop. For in MY will, you shall reach the destination set before you. However, trusting in man shall leave you in a maze, and you shall see the dry places, the wilderness, the weeds. There are those leading who are covered in weeds – their souls filled. They will not be suppressed any longer. I the Lord am calling them forth. A spotlight on the weeds shall indeed show."
Prey of a Different Kind
The Spirit of the Lord says this day, "Rabbits are prey animals, seen much in spring. Look for that time – for China to so be prey. As they have preyed on others, they shall find themselves prey of a different kind," says the Lord.
Ireland Shall Come to the Forefront
"Ireland, in this hour, shall come to the forefront."
Built Upon as a Strong Tower
The Spirit of the Lord says this day, "What I, the Lord, have laid the groundwork for – what I have laid, not what you have laid – shall be built upon as a strong tower. The name of the Lord is a strong tower; the righteous run to it and they are safe. A tower – a strong tower – a beacon of light...
"I the Lord shall build upon what I have laid in your life, and you shall come into the fullness of what I, the Lord, have called you to be. For I have called you by name and I am calling you in this season to build – to allow ME, the Lord your God, to build. And NO ONE will take it from you; NO ONE will try to inhabit and grab ahold of what I build in your life. And those that have tried, those [that have] attempted to latch on – to move what I built THE WRONG WAY – their consequence shall be of their own making. For instability cannot steer a ship, and you have put instability at the helm, and the ship is about to run aground and be destroyed; for it was set off course by a faulty compass and those giving directions in the dark. This shall come to the light and be made known.
Vindication
"Those who have been accused and ostracized, all in the name of control, they shall be vindicated this year. That 'plan B' shall fail, and the lies and deception so sewn shall *tare and fray and unravel; for that is their harvest for giving themselves over to the brokenness and desire for what was not theirs to take. That shall be rectified. Vindication," says the Lord. [Editor's note: During the interview, Amanda noted this word was spelled "t-a-r-e" and not "tear."]
"I AM your vindicator. I AM your advocate. And I WILL vindicate and exonerate you from the accusations of Marthas gone astray, and those who listened to such foolishness that was not based in MY Word. This shall be rectified. For this is the year of extreme growth and rectification – even going years back; for I shall make right what was broken years back and influenced events. This shall be made right...the broken places made straight. And I, the Lord, shall shine a spotlight on MY faithful ones who are faithful to Me.
"You do not see what I SEE in private, and I know who is truly faithful and who is faithful to the camera alone," says the Lord of hosts.
A Blooming in the Desert
The Spirit of the Lord this day, "A blooming in the desert... You shall be the oasis for ME. You shall bloom where others don't grow. You shall and will branch off and be as a strong oak. As the cedars, you shall be strongly rooted in your position I have given you for MY GLORY and for MY NAME – the name above all names. Know this. Believe it. For the Judge is bringing rectification and vindication. And you shall exponentially grow for MY GLORY. A great mantle of favor is being placed upon some of you. It shall grow immensely in this year. Thus says the Lord of hosts, in the name of Jesus Christ who sits at MY right hand, amen and amen."

Amanda Grace and her husband Chris are the founders of Ark of Grace Ministries (located in the beautiful Hudson Valley), walking out the commission in Mark 16:15: "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature." They minister to all of God's creation, both people and animals. They prophetically minister and teach, breaking down the Word of God (which is living and active) by examining the Hebrew and Greek roots of the Bible, as well as the times when it was written, to understand the true context of the Scriptures and apply them to life. Another way that Amanda and Chris minister at Ark of Grace is through their animal Sanctuary, where they take in lost, abandoned, disabled animals and show them the love of God. Amanda also takes care of her husband Chris who sustained a traumatic brain injury in January 2019 and miraculously survived. They have both experienced and understand the incredible power of Almighty God and how He redeems! They teach others – through their testimony, biblical teaching, the prophetic, and life lessons of caring for the residents of their animal sanctuary – how the Lord can move in every circumstance of life.
