Prophetic Word for Creatives
Creatives in the entertainment industry and in worship ministry:
The Lord is showing me you've been frustrated. I saw a dead end with a high wall. You were looking up and still couldn't see the top. I heard you say, "even if I knew how to climb this wall, I don't know how long it is to get to the top- it might be so high I can't even get over it when I get there . "
You were discouraged. You've experienced the heights before, why can't you now? The Lord wants you to know today the idea of conquering the wall is a deception. It was never about reaching the top. It is about building the foundations.
Then I saw you like a tree. I could see underneath the soil to your roots. And those roots were deeper than the height of the tree itself.
I then heard the Lord speak to you: "it's your job to go deep not high, it's my job to advance and grow you - leave that part to me".
You are looking at the wrong metrics that define success! Be set free from the idea that growth means going higher and higher. True growth that leaves legacy goes deeper and deeper!
The Lord says: "As you concentrate on going deep with me, that growth will happen naturally."
So stop looking at the wall. Start looking at his word, and listening to his voice- it's the fertile ground you need to become the giant oak tree he's called you to be.
I then saw you in the future. You were fully grown. Your roots were so deep that there was no way you could ever be pulled from the ground. And the best part? Your branches were higher than that wall. But guess what, you didn't care anymore. You were not leaving your position. You understood the value of your root system and you no longer saw overcoming that wall as the ultimate
prize.
And as you grew deeper, oh my, your songs, your art, your voice, your words, your dance - it was changing the world
more than you thought it ever could. It was beyond your wildest imaginations! Simply because you stopped looking high and started looking deep.
The answers you are looking for lie in the soil. Keep digging! Please share with anyone as you feel led.
