Pick up your KEYS David.

On the night of July 31st 2023, as I was settling down into to bed ready to head off to sleep, I was organising my instrumental worship music that I love falling asleep to via YouTube, when a video caught my attention. The Lord on occasions, will use video as a way of speaking with me and I am not in the habit of limiting our LIMITLESS God. Immediately I recognised the face on the thumbnail, although I follow on Instagram, I do not follow on YouTube. It was Nate Johnston, an incredible prophetic voice and fellow Australian and the time stamp on the video showed the video to be four years old. As this video was quite a few years old and a direct response to something I had just been speaking to the Lord about at that moment, I knew in my spirit I was meant to watch it which was further confirmed as I was nudged by the holy spirit to do so.

As the video began, which focused on taking your voice back and picking up your mantle, The Lord began to speak. Immediately he brought back to my mind, two visions I had had earlier in the year. In the first vision, I saw a person approach a door with a set of keys. as they were about to put the key in the lock, the keys dropped to the ground. the keys fell onto a small patch of green grass directly in front of the door. The vision ended with the person picking up the keys. As he reminded me of this vision, He spoke to my spirit and said " Pick up your keys, David". This came with further revelation of that vision and connection to a scripture He has been, on a consistent basis , highlighting to me for the most of the year which is Isaiah 22:22 which reads " And I will place on his shoulder the key of the house of David. He shall open and none shall shut: and he shall shut and none shall open." Take your position.

The second vision He brought to my remembrance, was a vision He had given me during Holy week this year . The vision was of a skull that began to grow flesh, then hair and then a medieval type helmet. He was referring to Ezekiel 37; 1-15, which speaks of prophesying to dry bones and The Lords resurrection power.

Nate's word truly blessed me, The lord used this word to truly shift something in me. The Lord is so good, so faithful and He had just demonstrated to me that in His perfect timing, all things are made clear.

Many of us have endured a viciously unrelenting onslaught from the enemy through varying means, including witchcraft. The Lord confirmed this, again via a dream, which I will not detail in this forum just yet, that He is taking care of, as a good father does. He is renewing and strengthening His battle weary children. Some of us so weary, we have dropped the keys He gave us, He created us with. Our voices, temporarily silenced by a screaming enemy, Just as Elijah experienced when Jezebel threatened his life. But the Lord Jesus is saying " PICK UP YOUR KEYS DAVID!!". He is strengthening you, renewing your mind and returning your voice. He is asking you to pick up the keys and walk boldly through the door He has now opened, that no man can shut. The Lord is saying the enemy will impede no longer, and that he is contending with those who have contended with you.

Its time to be unleashed. The flood of His goodness is upon you. With great confidence, pick up your keys and walk ferociously through the door into your destiny, purpose and all He has for you for HIS GLORY. Watch as He resurrects what the enemy thought he had killed or stolen, just like He did on the third day. The devil is an already defeated foe. Jesus won the victory at the cross and resurrection and Jesus has given you Child of God, authority to trample on serpents. Now is the time to come out of hiding, come out of the cave, declare scripture. Declare over yourself, " You are the head and not the tail(Deuteronomy 28:13 ), " You are first and not last". ( Mathew 20:16) '' You are healed by His stripes". ( Isaiah 53) in Jesus name.

It's time to shake off the stench of last season, pick up your keys, and take your position, strengthened by the Lord Jesus, himself and remember God is so breathtakingly in the details, and He loves you so much. Make sure to Look for Him there. x
