The word of the Lord for 2023 -

The year of Sowing and Reaping/ a of what was injust will be Just

This is a prophetic year and a pivotal year for us to enter into based in the Jewish calendar 5783

BREAKTHROUGH, SHIFT & DOORS: 5783 - 2023 THE ERA OF THE PATRIARCHS!

The Hebrew word for Breakthrough is pârats meaning to break out, make a breach, break forth, burst out, spread abroad, increase, and open.  Many prophetic voices have spoken over the years about SHIFTING, DOORS, CROSSOVER, AND BREAKTHROUGH. These are words we have heard repeatedly that may need clarification for some. Breakthrough is related to spiritual barriers that God destroys that hinder our progress. Shift describes movement God initiates that we may occupy a new position in the spirit that manifests in the natural. Doors and crossing over represent the opening of new and effective spheres of opportunity providing us with the choice to go through.

TRANSCENDENT EXCELLENCE.

Transcendent means exceeding usual limits: surpassing, extending or lying beyond the limits of ordinary experience. BEING BEYOND THE LIMITS OF ALL POSSIBLE EXPERIENCE AND KNOWLEDGE.

WHAT IS GOD SPEAKING THROUGH 83

83 – Pey (mouth) Gimmel (camel)

Gimmel means “lift up” as a camel lifts up one who rides it. Bears burdens in the desert places.

Root word G’mul dual meaning: the choice between blessing OR curses; justice or judgment

(God’s justice is when all things are made right. The widow has a home, the orphan…)

MOUTH SPEAKING WORDS TO BLESS OR CURSE; TO SET FREE OR TO JUDGE; TO LIFT UP AND BEAR BURDENS OR TO CAST DOWN AND REFUSE TO HELP.

IT IS LITERALLY OUR CHOICE – THIS IS A “VALLEY OF DECISION YEAR.” DO YOU WANT JUSTICE OR JUDGMENT? EACH OF US MUST DECIDE.

MOSES AND AARON TELL PHARAOH TO “LET THE HEBREWS GO” OUT FROM UNDER THE BURDEN OF BONDAGE. PHARAOH IN VALLEY OF DECISION SPEAKS CURSES.

The Hebrew word picture for pey and meaning describes a mouth and symbolizes to speak, and opening or to breathe this mouth is used for the source of a river or the opening of a well

Prob 10:11

The mouth of a righteous man is a well of life,

but violence covers the mouth of the wicked.

Strong’s Greek 83 – adelotes: uncertainty; quality of being unseen or disappearing; indefiniteness

1 Timothy 6:17  – Command those who are rich in this present age not to be haughty, nor to trust in uncertain riches but in the living God, who gives us richly all things to enjoy.

Transition into the word for 2023

The year of Sowing and Reaping

Gal 6:7-8Message translation

Don’t be misled: No one makes a fool of God. What a person plants, he will harvest. The person who plants selfishness, ignoring the needs of others—ignoring God!—harvests a crop of weeds. All he’ll have to show for his life is weeds! But the one who plants in response to God, letting God’s Spirit do the growth work in him, harvests a crop of real life, eternal life. Message translation

This is a spiritual Biblical law

To reap is “to gather a crop” and to sow, “to plant seeds.” Throughout versions of the Bible, sowing is used as a metaphor for one’s actions and reaping for the results of those actions

1. sowing and reaping, and you will reap in the same year that you sow in

insight : just as surely as everything in nature reproduces after its kind, harvests being as sure as the sowings, so every man will reap what he sows and be responsible for his own destiny

A.The proverb "sowing and reaping" suggests that by taking action today, you will reap the rewards of your efforts in the same year. It is a reminder to sow seeds of effort and time into activities you want to grow, and be patient in expecting the harvest.

B .This proverb emphasizes the concept that those who sow will reap in due course. It implies that the rewards for hard work and dedication will come quickly. The underlying message is that with consistent effort, it is possible to enjoy the fruits of one’s labour within a single cycle or year.

you cannot sow seed without expecting the harvest

Every prophetic word that you receive is conditional - so here's the conditional part of this word this evening

2. You cannot get weary or lose hope in this year of sowing and reaping - Gal 6:9 “So let’s not get tired of doing what is good. At just the right time we will reap a harvest of blessing if we don’t give up.”

2 Th 3:13 “As for the rest of you, dear brothers and sisters, never get tired of doing good.”

Eph 3:13 “So please don’t lose heart because of my trials here. I am suffering for you, so you should feel honored.”

A. everything as a due season

God's divine timing is always right, and if we put ourselves in its path, we will be rewarded with the harvest of our labor. Bill Johnson

Each season brings its own unique opportunities, but none can compare to the blessings God has in store for those who position themselves rightly. Sow wisely and you will be sure to reap a generous harvest!

Prophetic word:

The Lord told me that he's going to give some folks witty ideas and concepts that will be rolled out into the marketplace and they were sow what they have labored in and reap a harvest and many people will be blessed because of their witty ideas and concepts that he's releasing to men and women who make themselves available under the open heaven to receive ideas to be sewn into the earth to bring radical transformation in the marketplace.

Prophetic word:

The Lord also told me that he's releasing idea breakers and these ideas and concepts will break barriers that no one else can break but he's releasing this to his righteous people in other words what other said that could not be done God said it can't be done because he is the creator of all things.

Proverbs 8:12 talks about wisdom (which is the Holy Spirit manifesting Himself into everyday situations), and God says:

“I wisdom dwell with prudence, and find out knowledge of witty inventions.”

“Heavenly Father, Your Word says that if I call on You, You will answer me and show me great and mighty things that I do not know. So I’m calling on You. Please answer me and show me the great and mighty things I don’t know.

Surprise me, Lord. I have no idea what to ask for, but I ask You to let me see these awesome things You want to show me. Thank You. In Jesus’ name, amen.”

The Lord tell me I will produce what has been sown in 2023

3. 2023 will be a year of sowing, a lot of love

Scripture the Lord download to me is

1 Peter 4:8 Amplified Bible (AMP)

Above all, have fervent and unfailing love for one another, because love covers a multitude of sins [it overlooks unkindness and unselfishly seeks the best for others].

a. Love is the greatest weapon against violence and division. This love is often referred to as "kingdom love" and can be used to bring unity and peace in any situation.

We must walk in love in order to receive love back

B. The Lord was very clear with me, and he said no love must be your highest goal in 2023

1cor 14:1 “Let love be your highest goal! But you should also desire the special abilities the Spirit gives—especially the ability to prophesy.”

You can’t give love away if you don’t love your self first -God cannot turn off His love for you because He is the source of love.

God is motivated by love and His love causes Him to protect those He loves.

4.83 JUSTICE IN A DAY OF PERSECUTION

1. A PRAYER FOR JUSTICE IN A DAY OF PERSECUTION

Psalm 119:83 – For I have become like a wineskin in smoke, Yet I do not forget Your statutes.

PRAYER FOR JUSTICE DURING OPPRESSION

Psalm 83:1-3  – Do not keep silent, O God! Do not hold Your peace, And do not be still, O God!

2 For behold, Your enemies make a tumult; And those who hate You have lifted up their head.

3 They have taken crafty counsel against Your people, And consulted together against Your sheltered ones.

The Lord’s Justice and peace shall prevail throughout the land in 2023- Prophet Clyde Lewis

a. The Lord says where there has been injustice will be reversed into his justice- Prophet Clyde Lewis

b. The Lord says that you will war with his justice, and not your own justice Eph 6:11-12 “Put on all of God’s armor so that you will be able to stand firm against all strategies of the devil. For we* are not fighting against flesh-and-blood enemies, but against evil rulers and authorities of the unseen world, against mighty powers in this dark world, and against evil spirits in the heavenly places.”

The God of Justice

Justice is rooted in God’s character and creation: • “He is the Rock, his works are perfect, and all his ways are just. A faithful God who does no wrong, upright and just is he” (Deuteronomy 32:4). • “The Lord is righteous, he loves justice” (Psalms 11:7). • “The Maker of heaven and earth … upholds the cause of the oppressed and … loves the righteous” (Psalms 146:6–8). • “The Lord Almighty will be exalted by his justice” (Isaiah 5:16). • God’s character includes a zeal for justice that leads him to love tenderly those who are socially powerless (Psalms 10:14 – 18).

This kingdom year is here, and it looks different from anything we’ve seen before. The Lord has promised a season of righteous justice, when His justice will be made known through the actions of believers on this earth. We must prayerfully use the power of agreement to work together for His righteousness and bring forth breakthrough across the land. It takes courage to stand up for what's right - to believe for answers that go beyond what we can see with our natural eyes. So let us take courage and release favor into this kingdom year ahead in faith, trusting in Him to do what only He can do! Let us roll up our sleeves and start building together!
