At the beginning of December 2022, my husband and I decided we were going to go away for a few days after Christmas. I was desiring to get away from work and everyday distractions. My soul and body were longing for some rest and peace before we were launched into the new year. I knew, in order to reset and gain vision for the new year, we had to go away and spend a few days in fellowship together, intentionally getting still before the Lord. I felt the nudge of the Holy Spirit to plan this time off and trusted it would reap great rewards.
Being Served by Clarity
We made reservations at a resort in the countryside, outside of Austin, Texas, and arrived on December 29th. We went with no expectations other than to receive some rest and clarity for the new year. The next morning, we went downstairs to have breakfast in the main dining room. We were quickly seated at a table and then our server greeted us. She was spunky and personable. I looked at her name tag and read the name "CLARITY." It caught my attention, and I mentioned how unique her name was. I told her I had never met a person named "CLARITY."
Still weary from the holidays and a little sleepy, it didn't strike me in its fullness right away. My first thought was focused on her. I always look at people's name tags or ask them their names to see how the Lord might want to minister to them through their names. She began to share with nervousness and excitement about her upcoming marriage and the blending of two families. We listened with our ears and our hearts. She had a lot of questions about their future together. One of the questions was whether or not they would decide to have a baby together. Behind the words of reasoning, it sounded like a desire of her heart, and we felt led to encourage her. I said, "I pray and believe God will give you CLARITY as you move forward in your new life – that you will be led by peace and that things will become clear as you move forward in the new year."
I was actually prophesying to myself, but it didn't dawn on me at the moment. I was so focused on her that it wasn't until she walked away that the light bulb of revelation went off. I felt a shift in the atmosphere and knew that we had been in a supernatural moment. I took note of it, and we finished our breakfast.
After breakfast, we took a stroll around the grounds taking in the sights without any agenda for the day. The Holy Spirit began to bring the situation with our server back to me. My husband and I briefly talked about it and then I began to hear the Holy Spirit speak. He said, "As you come to My table and dine with Me, CLARITY will come and it will serve you!"
The words deposited hope in my heart, and I felt that blessed assurance of confidence in His voice. I felt we were to just keep walking, talking and devoting this time away to rest and relaxation, TRUSTING that clarity would surely come.
Divine Flow
While on the trip, we had come to the agreement, and settled it, that, beginning January 2nd, we would begin a 21-day fast. We didn't have any specific agenda for our fast, but were just being obedient to the leading of the Spirit. We had been preparing for the fast in our minds, so when we started, the grace for it was there.
We enjoyed our three days away and went home expecting God to move and do great things in the new year. The second week of the fast came and went. I was amazed at how the first two weeks had flown by and we were able to fast with such ease. We had been doing this by a divine flow. (Photo via Flickr)
One way you can be sure to tell you are in the midst of His grace and anointing is the concept of His divine flow. I describe it like this: "It is like when time speeds up or you are suspended in a place of time accomplishing incredible things with great productivity all by co-laboring with His Spirit and the angels. You become unaware of the amount of time that has passed as you are either praying, writing, working, or creating in any way."
That would be like writing or painting for me. This is something anyone can tap into when they are aligned with Him and yielding to the co-laboring process with the Holy Spirit. This is us, in our Earth suits, functioning in the spirit realm by engaging from an "on ground" place. I love when I get into a divine flow with the Lord. I get so much accomplished.
We are now in a time when, as we partner with Heaven, things will be done with ease in our lives – no striving, just thriving with ease as we submit to the Lord and the enemy flees. We will enter into places of divine flow quickly as we set our minds and efforts on the things above.
I believe there has been an increase of angels released to help us accomplish our divine assignments and everyday jobs to establish His Kingdom on Earth and for His glory! These tasks will even have an acceleration on them as He pours His Spirit and grace out upon us and we partner with the Holy Spirit and His holy angels. In this space and place of time, CLARITY WILL COME AND SERVE US!
The Widow's Oil
The Lord then gave me the direction to fast from social media, particularly Facebook, until I was released to go back. I felt it would be for the duration of the other fast I had started, possibly for the entire month of January. This would be considered a "soul fast." It is where you cleanse your soul – mind, will and emotions – from external information and any social overload that influences you or clogs up your thinking and dreaming. I have done this many times before and it has SERVED me well!
So, I partnered my food fast and my "soul-cial" media fast together for the month of January, and intentionally shut the door on distractions to seek the Lord and accomplish some assignments I had on my plate. I wanted to cleanse my soul and build up my spirit! I wanted to see and hear Him clearly! I was seeking Him and trusted that clarity would be the result.
The Lord gave me the Scripture passage about the widow's oil in 2 Kings 4. I was choosing to shut the door, give the Lord what I had, surrender myself as the vessel and expect the miracle oil to flow and multiply. I believe that even as I emerged from this place, it was and is still continuing to flow and multiply.
I noticed that as I committed to this fast and "shut myself in," seeking His face and being about His business, clarity definitely began to come and serve me, and is still serving me. The purpose of clarity coming to serve me is so that I can accomplish what He has called me to do and be able to serve others! Not only has it brought revelatory clarity, but even my hearing has been upgraded. I always say, "Seeing is hearing, and hearing is seeing!"
Upgraded Vision
I then had a dream the morning of January 17th, 2023. In the dream, I was searching for something to take back that was mine, but it felt like I was fumbling around in a dark place. I then saw myself with new glasses on. As a matter of fact, in the dream I was wearing the new frames that I had chosen when I went to the eye doctor the week prior, as I was getting an upgrade in my vision. I had not yet received the new glasses in the natural; I was still waiting on them to come in. But I felt the Lord was saying, "Even more clarity is still to come. You and many others are going to receive new lenses – an upgrade in [your] vision – and it will serve [you] well... There will not only be clarity but there will be an alignment that brings sharp focus and great precision, near and far, for heavenly strategies for the future." (Photo via Unsplash)
All of me said, "YES AND AMEN!"
The Enemy Must Repay Sevenfold! Vindication Has Begun!
I want to say, right here, that there have been many things which have been stolen from the people of God over the last few years that have affected the whole person – heart, soul and body. These things that were stolen have been hidden in the possession of the enemy. I believe this has been an act of witchcraft to hinder their sight, even to put them into bondage through offense or hurts. Many weren't able to clearly see the enemy's hand at work and suffered damages.
However, the enemy is being exposed, and the righteous Judge will release a verdict demanding for him to give back sevenfold what he stole! For the wealth of the wicked is stored up for the righteous (see Proverbs 13:22) – those who are vindicated by God. Vindication has begun!
I believe my dream was insight into the things that will be taken back by the people of God and the healing that will come to our hearts, souls, bodies and livelihoods. The Lord has been rebuilding many of us through the years after suffering from these things. The "clearing away" of the webs of witchcraft, the restraining of demonic invasions, and the taking back of territory has begun. Clarity has truly begun and is serving us, and it will continue to serve us to help us see and be wiser as we continue further into 2023!
I declare that as you set your hearts and minds to seek Him and His Kingdom first, CLARITY WILL COME AND SERVE YOU this year. Make a decision to move toward God just as the widow did, trusting the prophet's instructions, and He will move toward you. As you come to His table to dine, the miracle oil will flow and multiply, and clarity will come from your consecrated time in His Word and His presence. He will restore all things and redeem the time lost!
Don't just sit there – quickly move toward Him, shut the door behind you and take a seat at His table. Then watch clarity come and serve you!
