God is releasing a fresh “begin again” anointing on those who are ready to build or rebuild God’s way – whether it is an area in your spiritual life, a relationship, a ministry, a small group, business or network. God provided an outline based on Ezra 3-6, as a blueprint for releasing strength over every area God is calling us to build or rebuild in this season.
1. Begin with Worship and Intimacy (Ezra 3)
When Israel returned to rebuild the temple (Ezra 3:11), they started with worship. This season calls us to "level up" in worship and intimacy with God. Worship aligns us with God’s plans and vision. When we draw near to the Lord in praise and worship, beholding the Lord, God gives us clarity and strength for the path ahead.
2. Examine Your Alliances (Ezra 4)
As they rebuilt, Israel faced opposition. Who we partner with in the season ahead, will have a direct impact on our breakthroughs, our assignments and callings in the Lord (read Ezra 4:2-5). Take time to evaluate relationships and alliances, ensuring they lead to victory, not delays. As Proverbs 13:20 says, “Walk with the wise and become wise.”
Align yourself with those who pursue God’s purposes, preventing delays, detours or discouragement in your building season.
3. Speak Life (Ezra 5)
In building God’s way, our words matter. Ezra 5 shows the power of declaring God’s promises, even in the face of opposition (Ezra 5:11).
Are you speaking life or discouragement? “Death and life are in the power of the tongue” (Proverbs 18:21). Declare God’s blessings, God’s promises and watch breakthroughs happen as you speak into the building and rebuilding process.
4. Believe for God’s Provision and Favor (Ezra 6)
The people who were aligned with God’s strategy of building and rebuilding, received great favour and supernatural provision from the Lord (read Ezra 6:7-10).
The resources to build your ministry, business, or home will be provided supernaturally, as you submit yourself to the Lord, as you “get out of the way” to follow God’s blueprint.
If you feel stuck or stagnant, receive this word: God is renewing your strength as you build God’s way. The toiling season is ending; the brick wall is lifting. Let go of control, trust God’s plan, and watch the Lord breathe life into every effort you commit to the Lord.
