2013 will be a year of confrontation between the apostolic and the religious/Jezebelic structure. There is a war being fought over the Church as God is jealously pursuing the heart of the Bride. The Lord is calling His Bride back into true communion with Him- unhindered by any distraction. We are going to see war break out as the apostolic wages war against the religious spirit and throws her out of the Church. The Church must decide who she will serve as we are entering into a greater time of decision. Those who decide to break free will step into this new apostolic reformation and will be swept up into the third and final great awakening. Those who remain in the clutches of the religious structure will not be on the cusp of this move. I also believe, that if they don't repent for empty religiosity, then they will be a part of the great falling away that is prophesied to happen in the end-times.
The religious structure brings death and bondage to all of those who come underneath her influence. The Kingdom culture brings life and freedom. This year will be one in which the religious structure will be exposed for who she is and her deeds of death and destruction will be shown for what they are. This will be a year in which the apostolic will gain an authority before both God and man as those who are called to the office of apostle will step into a greater fullness of their authority. This world has seen her prophets but we have not yet seen apostles within our generation exercise the fullness of their office.
At the same time there will be imitators. We must learn to recognize the difference between Kingdom and religion. They are many, operating out of manipulation and self-promotion, who will think that they are still within the will of God. We will see false apostles arise and embrace the name and prestige of the office. But the true apostolic is one more focused on furthering the Kingdom than their own ministry. We must look at the spirit in which people operate as there will be some who will operate out of mixture and bring deceit to many within the Church. We have to look more at the heart of the minister and not judge by mere actions or appearance.

This will be a year of separation. We are going to see gray separated into white and black. No longer will gray remain gray. The time of the compromised middle is over. No longer can God's people waffle between two opinions. It is as in the days of Elijah when he stood upon Mt. Carmel and asked who Israel would serve. We must choose who will be our master and stick to that master. No longer will we be able to claim that God is our Lord and linger at the altars of immorality and worldly compromise. This will also be a year of revealed power as the apostles move in signs and wonders. This is a showdown between religion and the Kingdom of Heaven. We are seeing a revealing of the manifested sons of God.
This is a year of taking ground. We are going to see many salvations take place. It has been prophesied that the Third Great Awakening has already begun. Until now it has been a harvest of harvesters. We are now going to see many more come to Christ. But the structure of the Church is not yet ready for the influx of souls. Perhaps in certain parts of the world it is- but the Western Church is not yet ready for the tens of millions of souls that are going to come into the Kingdom over the next decade. God must reform the container before He can pour the fullness of revival and awakening power into it. This year is one of reforming and testing the container.
We are also going to see many of God's people plucked out of obscurity into places of influence. The Daniels, Esthers, Ezras, Nehemiahs, and Josephs are going to be taken out of the place of hiding and placed into the mountains of culture. The world will not yet see it but there will be a rumbling within the mountains of culture as God's people start to take their place. This is a year of positioning within culture. God has been preparing His people for this time and now that they have obtained freedom from the world they will be placed back into the world so that they might bring transformation from the inside out. This is a time of the sleeper agents being placed into influence so that a great light might break forth in time. I see the mountain of Hollywood (arts, entertainment, and media) being highlighted at this time along with government.
This is a time of power for all of the offices within the Kingdom. Not just for the apostles. As the apostles arise, and take their governmental place, they will pull the other offices into their place as well. We have seen a prophetic revival as the prophets arose but they will step into a new place of greater authority as their co-foundation layers arise. The evangelistic anointing is also going to be revealed mightily as the apostolic prepares the wineskin for this coming move of God. The pastors and teachers are going to receive greater clarity as the prophets and apostles bring alignment to the Church. The apostolic age isn't just for the apostles- it's for the glory of the victorious Church.

I have previously called this the year of the campus. We are going to see the campuses of North America spearhead this movement of power evangelism. We will see the stirrings and beginning of stadium Christianity as it has been prophesied for decades- but it will be birthed out of the college and university campuses. The harvest of souls on the campus will be the fuel for this end time harvest of souls. Many of the endtime harvesters, who are going to go forth to the ends of the earth, will be raised up on the fields of the campuses.
As there is war and shaking in the spirit realm we will see the similar in the natural. This will be a time of turmoil and uncertainty as the earthly structures will be shaken. Just as Elijah shook the political and religious structure of Israel so will the structures of this world be shaken as confrontation comes between light and dark. The world will be shaken as the wheat is separated from the chaff and the pure gold emerges from the piles of gravel in which it has been kept in hiding. The greatest moves of God have emerged from times of great turmoil and uncertainty.
This is a time of decision for America. We are positioned upon a time of second chances and finality. Much of the decisions made politically this year will set into motion the course of our nation for a generation. Abortion has been legalized here for an entire generation- January will mark 40 years. We are stepping into a kairos time for the ending of abortion. God is calling the Hispanic peoples within America to arise with a fire of prophetic evangelism and declare life over this nation. There is a call over the African-American people to take up a kingly and apostolic role and release the anointing within them to break the chains of deception and bondage that is over our nation and expose the culture of death that has fallen upon us. If the American Church truly unites against abortion, across denominational and racial lines, then we will see it end far quicker than anyone thinks possible. The decision for life starts and ends with the Church- we must take a stand.
This is also a year of repayment. The Lord has kept score with what the enemy has taken from you. We will see God restore much of what the locusts have eaten. We will see a restoration and reconciliation of relationships within the Church and within the family unit. Where there was hurt and division there will be healing and understanding. There is also going to be an end of the debt and poverty mindset in regards to finances. Many people are going to see a multiplication of provision. This is a time of creative ideas and entrepreneurship opportunities. The transfer of wealth and a new measure of Kingdom provision has begun as the apostles have taken their place.
This year has seen great violence and 2013 will see even more violence. The sounds of revolution, both spiritual and natural, are echoing across the globe. The spirit of death has received much power over the past forty years within this nation. We are at a kairos time to confront the assignment of death and declare life over our nation, our families, and the Church. God is calling us to come in an opposite spirit to what has been manifest in this world. This is a year of discovery as God's people learn what true Kingdom culture looks like. We are going to see a great light emerge in this coming year just as great darkness is covering the earth. This is the time of our greatest glory if we simply believe and step into it.
