"A
NEW SEASON OF VINDICATION BEGINS NOW"
THE SONS OF ISSACHAR HAVE BEEN RE-ACTIVATED!

The Bible tells us little about these prophetic "sons of Issachar" (I
Chronicles 12:32) except that they apparently possessed an incredible prophetic
sensitivity to discern, to distinguish, and to truly know the spiritual
"now" seasons of God as He moved upon the earth. They were especially
adept at knowing what God's people should do, that is, how God's people should
respond to the particular season of God they were in at the moment.
"And of the children of Issachar, which had understanding of the times to
know what God's people should do . . . " (Emphasis mine)
As a prophetic "son of Issachar," I declare by the Spirit of God that
a wonderful new seven-year season, a "now" season, a
"Jubilee" season is upon you right now. It is time "now" to
rejoice, for God has made your enemies His footstool! (Psalm 110:1) Just think
of that: He has made YOUR enemies, HIS footstool. Frightening, isn't it?
TODAY, TODAY, TODAY . . .
Although true prophetic skills must include the ability to know beforehand what
God is doing (prophetic foreknowledge), a true son of Issachar will know TODAY
what God is doing right here, right now. I have been impressed of the Lord with
just such a "now" word for you, a "word in season," a
powerful and liberating prophetic word for you TODAY! With this "now"
prophetic word, there is no waiting required, there will be no delays, and no
futuristic application will be necessary. In this case, today means today! Now
means now!
Literally, right now, as you read this prophetic declaration, God is at work in
your life vindicating you. He is busy "behind the scenes" working on
your behalf. A new seven-year period of great spiritual release is upon you!
Your years of persecution and suffering "for His name's sake" are
about to pay off.
THE PAST SEVEN YEARS!
(ANN BANDINI COMMENTS...MAY I INTERJECT HERE THAT THIS IS A TRUE WORD FROM THE
LORD A 7 YEAR PERIOD HAS ENDED FOR MANY!)
The year 2004 marked the end of a brutal spiritual season for many. At first I
did not discern this or the magnitude of this new 2005 supernatural season we
are now experiencing. But I now believe it was and is a truly awesome,
Church-wide, go-to-the-next-level, unprecedented supernatural shift. One
supernatural season has ended and a distinctly new and better supernatural
season in God has begun!
"One supernatural season has ended and a distinctly new and better
supernatural season in God has begun, says the Lord!"
WOUNDED SOLDIERS
Unnoticed by most, the Holy Spirit began to move around mid-January, setting off
a chain reaction of spiritual events for all who have "endured hardship as
a soldier of Jesus Christ." If you've been enduring hardship, if you've
been wounded, especially by "friendly fire," this new season is just
for you! You're about to be healed.
In a word, this new season is all about vindication. It's not about you exacting
vengeance or "getting even." Not at all. Instead, it's about
vindication from God for the past seven years as you have endured suffering as
His faithful soldier.
NOT GUILTY!
Yes, you are about to be rewarded. The truth is about to come out, you are about
to be freed from alleged charges against you. You are about to be absolved and
acquitted. The Lord is about to announce over you, "Not guilty!"
Victims are about to rejoice and your accusers are about to be silenced! You're
not being paroled, you're being acquitted!
BACK TO THE SONS OF ISSACHAR
This truly invaluable supernatural ability that these prophetic servants
possessed to know what God was doing at that precise moment in time in the
spirit realm certainly served these "sons" well. This precise
prophetic ability is what put them on the prophetic map, so to speak. It's what
got them noticed, it's what they built their reputation on. They earned the
trust of those who listened to them for one simple reason: what they said
prophetically was accurate, applicable, beneficial, and most of all, very, very
timely.
Like a "son of Issachar" I often find myself writing to the Church
when I discern a new season is upon Her. I believe we have just entered such a
season -- a very, very exciting season indeed! I also believe I have a very,
very timely word of encouragement for the Church. And this includes you!
YOUR DAY IS AT HAND!
I believe that countless believers just like you have lived through a seven-year
period of great personal hardship, especially in the area of damaged or even
severed personal and ministry relationships. All this is going to change
rapidly. If you've been victimized by sinners or saints, get ready. Your day is
at hand! Specifically, you have been waiting for vindication from past
injustices, betrayals, and abandonments and the subsequent disillusionment it
has created.
THE SPIRIT OF WITCHCRAFT IS BEING EXPOSED
Frankly, the root problem has been about witchcraft in the Church. The spirit of
witchcraft that has decimated and dissected you is finally being exposed. You
paid a great price for your integrity, your character, and your honesty. Yes, it
cost you a great deal to be a true follower of Jesus Christ. You may have even
appeared to many to be the "bad guy" when, in fact, you were actually
the victim of a spiritual crime. Again, all that is going to change. The Lord
would say to you today, "The days of your mourning are over, your Jubilee
year is now upon you. I have begun your vindication. It will come swiftly."
Ezekiel said it this way, "None of my words will be prolonged any more, but
the word which I the Lord have spoken to you shall be done now." Ezekiel
12:28 (Emphasis mine)
A WORD FOR LEADERS
I declare prophetically that a season of great vindication and long overdue
justice for you, especially if you are one of His leaders, is upon you right
now. God has already begun the necessary process of vindicating you. You have
suffered betrayal, false accusation, broken promises, and abandonment long
enough.
As a result, you've been disillusioned about the call of God upon your life far
too long. Be encouraged: The Lord is delivering you from the results of past
problems, situations, and circumstances that delayed or, in some extreme cases,
actually robbed you of your destiny in God. I hear the Lord saying to you,
"All will be as it was supposed to be, says the Lord. There will be no part
of your destiny delayed, and no part of your destiny denied. Is there anything
too hard for Me?"
VINDICATION, VINDICATION, VINDICATION
Indeed, vindication is the key word, the "now" word of the Lord. I
hear it in my spirit loud and clear for you. To all His wonderful and wounded
warriors, to all who have suffered abuse at the hands of others, the Lord would
comfort you with these words in season.
"I am vindicating you now. You are being exonerated now, you are about to
experience true justice now."
POWER, GIFTING, AND AUTHORITY
You are now about to experience the promotion in God you have waited patiently
for. The seven years of explosive increase of power, gifting, and authority is
yours for the taking. Indeed, you are going to the next level. The promises of
God in your life are about to be wonderfully and powerfully fulfilled very
quickly.
Now here's the hard part of this prophetic promise, the part you will really
need "ears to hear." Often a prophecy's impact is only as good as the
response to it. Whether or not this prophecy for the Church impacts you
personally, depends entirely on your proper and biblical response.
A prophecy's impact is only as good as your response to it.
No doubt you will be asked by God to participate in the healing and restoration
of formerly broken relationships, especially with Christians. Please do so
graciously and humbly, just as Christ would. Say yes to any and all whom are
looking to be reconciled with you.
OLIVE BRANCHES
I predict that people, saved and unsaved, from your past will soon visit you.
They will come with olive branches in their hands looking to establish peace
with you. I urge you to accept their offering and participate enthusiastically
in the peace process.
God's part during this new seven year season will be to vindicate you in
incredible ways. Like Joseph you are coming out of your dungeon and are about to
experience God's great favor upon your life; a true season of amazing promotion
awaits you.
However, your part, and this is critical, is to " . . . not rejoice when
your enemies fall." (Proverbs 24:17)
So, welcome to your seven-year Jubilee season! Blessings,
