I am revealing the heart I have for My bride in this season. Listen, I am sounding the alarm, saying, “Wake up, sleeper! Rise!” (Ephesians 5:14). I am calling My precious bride forth from her place of complacency and slumber. I am calling her to arise, shine, and to be the victorious bride that I have called her to be.

I am beckoning My beloved to return to her first Love. For too long, My bride has been living below her potential, and she has become battle weary. Yet even in this hour, I am calling her forth. She will arise, she will shine; she will move forward radiant and stronger than ever before, and her countenance shall reflect the glory of her Bridegroom. Yes, My beloved will delight greatly in the Lord; her soul rejoices in God. For I have clothed her with garments of salvation and arrayed her in a robe of his righteousness, as a bridegroom adorns his head like a priest, and as a bride adorns herself with her jewels (Scripture reference: Isaiah 61:10).

I will allow My bride to live victoriously; I will teach her hands to war. She will dance upon injustice, and she will not fear in the days of trouble, for My bride is protected, favored, and honored by Me.

Like a husband who is jealous for his bride, so I am jealous over her—I am jealous over you.

I will lead you out of the wilderness, for My banner over you is love. Your trials have been your teachers, and now I will cause you to rise from the ashes. I will wipe away all of your tears.

You are the head, not the tail; you are above, not beneath (Deuteronomy 28:13). You shall prosper in all of your ways, having no fear in seasons of drought, for your Bridegroom will cause you to flourish!

Like a treasure, you have been hidden away. Now I will cause you to come into full bloom, like a well watered garden. My oil and anointing will drip from you as you come out of hiding and that place of obscurity. You will be on display, reflecting Me, for My glory and fame. My dear bride, you will be radiant. I am causing My justice to manifest in your life. You will rejoice and sing; you will be found coming up out of the wilderness, leaning on your Beloved (Song of Songs 8:5).

Oh, how I love you, My bride! Hear the song of love that I sing over you. “The Lord your God is with you, the Mighty Warrior who saves. He will take great delight in you; in his love he will no longer rebuke you, but will rejoice over you with singing” (Zephaniah 3:17).
