PROPHETIC WORDS

ROAR THROUGH 24!

by Jacinda Goodsir

This prophetic word was given at the NZ Council of Prophets gathering and Behold Conference in Christchurch, March 2024.

Just as the 20’s was a decade marked by mindset shifts, new music and the freedom to move, 2024 will be a year of the new. It is time to dream again! There will be new ways of worship, new initiatives, and the increase of new voices who carry a Roar in their spirit to break chains and set captives free.

Increase! Increase! Increase!

It is a year where the body of Christ will shake off any residue of disillusionment, disappointment and delay. It’s D–DAY!

Equip & Mobilise

The great commission is ringing loudly, and many are hearing the call to rise up and mobilise to reach the lost. Therefore this is the time of intentional discipleship and equipping of the body of Christ. New initiatives will be birthed as mature men and women in Christ run with the commission to disciple the next generation.

It’s a season of discipleship to build character, equipping to build confidence. God is asking many of us to raise an army around us who are able to move in love and power. A new generation of five–fold ministers are emerging from within our nation with a heart to serve the body of Christ. They are no frills people who know the power of the cross.

Fresh Consecration

There is a new level of consecration that the Lord is inviting us into in this season, as in the time of Samson, who was a Nazarite consecrated to God. I see a white wave sweeping across the nation of New Zealand, representing purity and holiness. This represents the men and women of God who have chosen to become living sacrifices on a whole new level. They are like modern day Nazarites who immerse themselves in the Father’s business and have disciplined themselves to hunger after righteousness. Like John the Baptist they are removed from the culture of the day, as well as its vices, and are calling the body of Christ to a new standard. They will be unshakeable in their conviction and in their pursuit of God’s presence. These men and women have stood in the fire like Shadrak, Meshak and Abednigo, and rather than kill them it has purified them, and they now carry fire in their spirits that will ignite fresh passion and love in those who receive them. The purity of their heart to pursue God at any cost will bring much wisdom and insight as they are privy to the high places of God.

Psa 24:3-4, “Who may ascend the mountain of the Lord? Who may stand in His holy place? 4He who has clean hands and a pure heart, who does not lift up his soul to an idol or swear deceitfully.”

Rom 12:1, “I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship.”

Harvest

There is an increase in angelic activity in our nation, particularly the awakening harvest angels. The lost are seeking truth and hope, and we are in a window of time where there is a freedom for them to hear and see God. I see the prayers of watchmen literally driving back the forces of darkness, creating a covering over people which is bringing clarity out of chaos. There are angelic visitations and dreams that are causing hearts to humble and hunger after God. Things are going to happen quickly as there are Saul to Paul encounters and transformations. Church get positioned to disciple!

“But to which of the angels has He ever said, “Sit at my right hand until I make Your enemies a footstool for Your feet?” Are they not all ministering spirits, sent out to render service for the sake of those who will inherit salvation?”” (Heb 1:13-14).

Wonder & Worship

I sense the Lord saying; “It is time for wonder and awe to return to My people. For My people desire the glory realm, and it is childlike expectancy that opens up the way for an increase of My glory.” The Lord is wanting to do a whole new thing that will be marked by Davidic Worship and Glory. It is the posture of a childlike faith that will open up the glory realm in a greater way. Right now there is an Asaph anointing resting on a company of worshippers.

As these men and women minister unto the Lord in worship, they will carry an anointing to usher in God’s presence, and ministry models will progress from personal impartation to sovereign corporate atmospheres that are so thick with His presence that anything foreign to the Kingdom of God must flee. Fullness of joy will be found in His presence!

“At that time the disciples came to Jesus, saying, ‘Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?’ And calling to Him a child, he put him in the midst of them and said, ‘Truly, I say to you, unless you turn and become like children, you will never enter the Kingdom of Heaven. Whoever humbles himself like this child is the greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven” (Matt 18:1-4).
