PROPHETIC WORDS
A GOWN FIT FOR THE KING!
by Lorinda Periera
July 2024
I believe that Aotearoa is continuing to move into a new season where the Order of God’s house will take form and function. Where there was chaotic imbalance of roles and culture the Lord is bringing back revelatory balance to His Kingdom. Where there were missing heads, people groups, and roles, the Lord is gathering the seams of His garment and bringing the five fold together like nothing we have ever seen.
Unity in order is what we, the church, will be known for in this season, after years of trying to force the hand of God with our own agenda. “Together” is where His anointing WILL flow and we will begin to understand this.
We will grow new legs to confidently stand on the predestined spiritual order that was set in our founding covenants of our land. Time is up on the gate keeping of the covenants in the land! The gospel, He whakaputanga and Te Tiriti o Waitangi will serve as covenants, gathering nations instead of enforcing division. The enemy will try, but the Lord will prove over and over that these foundations can, and will, NEVER be broken by man.
We, the church of NZ, will begin to walk and move in a new God ordained order, predestined before the arrival of our ancestors. “It is time, it is time”, says the Lord! The trump cards hidden within our nation’s conception are about to be revealed.
His Throne is on high and the earth down under is His footstool!
Like the seams coming together of a garment, the bride gown of Aotearoa will be fit for a king. It will be a nation known not just for unity, but a nation where every generation is present in the house of order. Children and the elderly will take significant ground in the outworking of His ministry of the Holy spirit.
The Lord declares that Aotearoa, the lone son, will return to the Holy tribe down under. We will start to see Acts 2:17 breakout around New Zealand, as His church mobilizes and goes after a fresh fire that has been reserved for NZ now. Nothing else will satisfy the former sons and the new sons as they are reborn into the unity furnace of agreement for His will in our nation.
Sent ones
It is indeed another season of being sent, but differing from the last. Those being sent will truly be abundantly blessed from the nation’s shores. (I encourage sent ones, if you know you are called to go to nations, step up and step out. The window of grace is over you now.)
NZ will act as a pioneering nation that will pioneer the fullness of the eklesia BEHIND the ones it sends to the nations. The word the Lord gave was, “Pioneering from the back row”, meaning that each one sent will represent our nation with support from the shores.
A New hunger of intercession and bursting open of plumb lines will start to breakout across the land. The order and unity of the body in Aotearoa will soon look to play a powerful role to the nations.
Key words for this year are Unity, Submission, and Pioneering from behind.
In closing…
The Lord has poured out a new and fresh fire for us down under. New Zealand, let’s go after it in Him TOGETHER!
