The Prophetic
Significance of PSALM 91 in This Hour
RYAN LESTRANGE
Like you, I have read Psalms 91
countless times and have always been comforted by its familiar theme but this
morning during my prayer time, the prophetic significance of this passage
affected me in a deep way: He
who dwells in the shelter of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the
Almighty. I will say of the Lord, "He is my refuge and my fortress, my God
in whom I trust." (Psalm 91:1-2 MEV).
The promise of protection is so clear
and yet we as believers spend so much of our time filling our minds and hearts
with fear. Our fascination with calamity and destruction aborts the power of
faith and quenches the flow of exploits in our lives.
At any given time, there are two voices
that are resounding in our minds: the voice of faith which releases and
empowers the kingdom; and the voice of fear which confines, constricts and
derails.
There are plans of great outpouring,
tremendous revival moves and radical awakening for this generation, yet these
intentions are being overridden by a fear mentality that wants to run and take
cover!
Our proximity to our Father is critical
in securing our safety, and our future and present promises. In this powerful
chapter, we are told to abide (remain) close to Him under the cover of His
feathers. It is really difficult to heed the voice of the enemy when you are
snuggled up next to the Father!
As I dove into this passage, the
relevance to this emerging move of God struck me in a new way. This current
move of God is presence-centered, presence-based and presence-fueled!
One of the chief components of the
emerging paradigm of revival hubs and apostolic centers is prayer. These
radical bases are places of prevailing prayer and governmental intercession. No
movement has fueled this fire more than the prayer movement.
The dedicated warriors from the various
branches of the prayer movement have given their lives to the task of
establishing the throne room in communities around the globe.
What is the throne room? It is a place
of habitation! This is the call of the hour—to create ministries that
demonstrate and value God's abiding presence. The presence of God is truly the
marker in this move.
The Lord spoke to me recently and said:
"The main room will become the
prayer room." I saw intercession and worship based prayer taking over
the corporate gatherings of the body of Christ. There is a divine marriage
between worship and intercession.
We have entered into an era where worship
is at the forefront and the presence is the prize. In this generation we have
coined terms like "revival culture" and "mantles of
awakening."
These terms identity concepts of
ministry that reject the methodology of church culture simply focused on filling
seats and building buildings. These terms and paradigms emphasize finding ways
to receive and maintain rich wells of glory.
A generation is tapping the wells of
power in order to press for awakening and unprecedented global transformation.
There is a remnant that is not satisfied with religious duty but desperately
longs for the heart of God and His full manifest presence.
As we move deeper into the place of
surrender and intimacy, we become overwhelmed and surrounded by God's presence.
When we minister to others there is heavenly residue. The residue of His glory
spills over into sickness and releases healing! The residue of His peace
overcomes torment.
We are no longer trying to manifest
signs and wonders, they are just breaking out as a result of the tangible
residue of heaven. We are called to be heaven dwellers and Earth conquerors.
Our DNA is that of the kingdom. The glory is our birthright! Wonders are the
norm. Revival outbreaks are typical.
Divine protection and angelic
assistance are the norm for the sons and daughters of the living God! The
heaven dwellers should absolutely expect divine protection, warnings and spirit
leading. We should live with the full expectation of Daddy's goodness being
manifested in our lives. It is absolutely true that we are living in a time of
crazy and intense demonic battle.
Demon-possessed people are committing
horrendous acts and this is the result of our culture's full embrace of hell's
agenda.
Yet in the midst of these times of
adversity there is an abundant level of security and promise for the people of
God! Our close and intimate relationship with the Father empowers divine
security. I believe that we are seeing and will see an increasing awareness of
angelic activity.
This is an era of the supernatural! Psalm
91:11 (MEV): For
He shall give His angels charge over you to guard you in all your ways.
Let us embrace our identity as sons and
daughters with absolute assurance! Let us reject the lies and the fear-based
religious bondage that the enemy wants to enslave us with. We are called to
live lives of full surrender, glorious manifestation and kingdom exploits.
There is a radical and fresh move of
God unfolding that values the presence of God, and is proximity-based and
prayer-driven. A generation is being invited not just to encounter but to dwell
in the Father's house.

“In the Presence of
Jehovah”

The Martins
lyrics
Chorus
In the presence of Jehovah
God Almighty Prince of Peace
Troubles vanish hearts are mended
In the presence of the King
Verse 1
In and out of situations
That tug-a-war at me
All day long I struggle
For answers that I need
Then I come into His presence
All my questions become clear
And for a sacred moment
No doubt can interfere
Verse 2
Through His love the Lord provided
A place for us to rest
A place to find the answers
In hours of distress
There is never any reason
To give up in despair
Just slip away and breathe His name
He will surely meet you there
In the presence of Jehovah
God Almighty Prince of Peace
Troubles vanish hearts are mended
In the presence of the King
Verse 1
In and out of situations
That tug-a-war at me
All day long I struggle
For answers that I need
Then I come into His presence
All my questions become clear
And for a sacred moment
No doubt can interfere
Verse 2
Through His love the Lord provided
A place for us to rest
A place to find the answers
In hours of distress
There is never any reason
To give up in despair
Just slip away and breathe His name
He will surely meet you there
