Last November, while I was praying about 2012, God revealed to me that May would be a month of grace. That grace is going to be made manifest in two different ways. As I, and other prophets, have spoken positioning is key to this year. It is very important that we be exactly where God has us during this time. There are some who are not in proper alignment and have by some accounts missed the boat when it comes to the apostolic shift that happened at the beginning of this year.
I say right now that May is a month of grace to those who were not in sync with what the Spirit was doing in the first four months of the year. God is giving another chance to those who are called to this new apostolic move of His government. Those who come into alignment during this month will receive all that they would have received had they been in sync during the first few months. God does not want His chosen apostles and prophets to be left behind in what will be known as an apostolic reformation of the Church. This is the beginning of a mighty stirring and the call is going forth throughout the earth.
There is also a special grace and favor to those who have been receptive to what God is doing. For those who have been aligned with the moves of the Holy Spirit there will be a favor of breakthrough. Things are going to seem easy starting with this week. There will be a favor upon you as things that you have been contending for will suddenly appear. In the natural there will be financial favor and blessings. There will be an ease as the discouragement of the latter part of April is now over. God will catch you up in His Spirit so that you will be above the attacks of the enemy. You will be aware of them but unaffected by them as you abide in His Spirit.
The main attack of the enemy during this season is to keep you out of the Presence of God. Be aware of those things which distract you from communing with God. Abide in His Presence each moment of the day. Do not allow the enemy to keep you from pressing in to the Most Holy Place.
We must also not hold onto the ministries of the past season. God is transitioning us and giving us greater things. There is a temptation to hold onto the ministries of yesterday as a backup plan. This must be avoided. In order to move fully into what God has for us we must give up those ministries that God has moved us from. When a CEO is promoted from the mailroom he doesn't return to the mailroom if things don't go well or the stress is too much. If God is moving you from the mailroom then you must give it up without thought of returning. Today's ministry might not be defined- you might not even know what it is. That is okay. God will guide you into the fullness of your ministry one step at a time. It might seem like a demotion but it is not. Do not allow the enemy to lie and say that your ministry was taken from you. God has removed many of His people from the ministries of yesterday to prepare them for the ministry of tomorrow. If it was God then you need not be concerned. If it was the enemy then you will be repaid ten-fold.
We must have a mindset of grace and favor during this season. We must live our lives as ones who have grace and favor upon us. As we do so we will see more and more of it manifest in our lives. We are going to see an increased acceleration of God's grace during these next two months. God is bringing us into a new place where we won't have to labor or contend for personal breakthrough. We will speak things into existence and they will come to pass. We will speak provision- and it will be there. We will speak healing- and it will be there. Take note that I am speaking about those things that are within God's will. I'm not talking about a name and claim your Cadillac. Though God will be giving cars away to some. I know one pastor who has been gifted three Land Rovers within the past couple of years but this grace and favor is for the Kingdom and not our own prosperity. Our prosperity should be a testimony of the Lord's provision. I happen to know that this pastor is also a huge giver. He knows the meaning of sacrificial giving and practices it.
The scripture records that as Jesus grew in wisdom and stature and in favor with both God and man. This is the call for all of us. As we abide in the Presence of God we receive wisdom that leads to favor. This favor will allow us to abide all the more in His sabbath rest. Allow yourself to receive your inheritance of grace and favor. Do not allow the enemy to steal it with distraction, regret, or bitterness. This is a time of going deep into the pleasures of God. Hallelujah!
