As I was preparing to leave the USA to come back to Australia, I felt the Lord say the ‘kidneys’ of Australia were failing and shutting down. Instantly, I felt the ‘filtering system’ of Australia was being hindered.
As I flew into Australia, I could hear the sound of the heart of the nation groaning and crying out. I had this burden as I was seeking the Lord on this that there has been a ‘blockage’ that has come into the Australian Church right now that is causing a hindrance into what God is wanting to do in this nation.
Since being back in Australia, I have been hearing the sound of alarms in the spirit, alarms, like an urgency to pray and to cover our nation. The sense has surrounded me since being here that there has been a breach in the Church that the Lord is wanting to close up and fix.
I sought the Lord about this ‘breach’ and instantly I saw a baby in the breech position. I felt the Lord saying that there needs to be a repositioning right now in the Australian Church.
The more I sought the Lord about this the more I felt a highlight on the leaders in the body of Christ and intercessors. The Lord kept showing me the word “COMPROMISE” and there was an invitation from His heart to leaders and intercessors especially to check their hearts and lives in the light of His presence and make sure that there has not been any “COMPROMISE” that has entered into their hearts and lives.
I kept hearing the invitation from the Lord to leaders in the body of Christ to build the highway of holiness in their hearts and lives through the partnership with the Spirit of God in the secret place embracing the pruning, purification process. (Isaiah 35:8)
There is a deep cleansing purifying fire being released into the lives of leaders in the body of Christ right now to position, mature and strengthen them for the promotion coming. The fire on leaders as they say YES is taking their roots deeper into Jesus to develop a deeper maturity, humility and integrity to be able to withstand the blessing, promotion and the shaking coming.
I can feel His love so strongly, yet I can also feel the urgency of the hour right now as a line is being drawn in the sand. I kept hearing the Lord speak into the Church of Australia:
“Rid yourselves of competition. Rid yourselves of compromise. Rid yourselves of insecurity. Come deeper in intimacy with Me. Lay down agendas and know I am leading you into the greatest breakthrough and promotion of your life, but striving must be completely laid down and a deeper level of surrender entered into to see the greatest SHIFT in the body of Christ in Australia and then the nation will BURST FORTH!!!”
I kept hearing this:
3 “Who may ascend the mountain of the Lord? Who may stand in His holy place?
4 The one who has clean hands and a pure heart, who does not trust in an idol or swear by a false god.” (Psalm 24:3-4)
The Lord was speaking to me about the move of His Spirit in Australia right now, the encounters with His fire, and the move of His fire, the fire of His love, the Lord coming as an all consuming fire to purify the Church and purify the nation. A deep purging, cleansing and purifying to see us enter deeper into the greatest move of the Holy Spirit in this nation like we have ever seen.
We must examine our heart motives in this season. We must examine what we are teaching. We must examine what we are believing. We must examine what we are speaking over our nation and into the heart of our nation against the Word of God.
We are on the brink of a mighty explosion of the Holy Spirit across this nation and the enemy is trying to hinder this next wave that’s about to be released into the nation that’s going to bring about the greatest healing, cleansing, revival, restoration and redemption we have ever seen. To see the greatest shift in this nation towards the prophetic declaration over this nation, “The great southland of the Holy Spirit.”
INTERCESSORS IN AUSTRALIA, ARISE!
As I have sought the Lord more and more on this word, I felt the Lord highlighting the issue of compromise and moving forward in repentance and closing those doors, but I also saw many intercessors have come off the wall.
I saw many intercessors who were weary, disappointed, discouraged, burned by the Church, and many prophets in Australia have been withdrawing and going into hiding. I saw many have left their ‘position’ and ‘come off the wall’ and I saw a BREACH in the Spirit.
As I looked at the word BREACH in the dictionary I was blown away by the definition:
“A gap in a wall, barrier or defense” (Source: Google.com)
The Holy Spirit fell on me strongly after I read that definition and I could hear the heart of the Lord crying out…
“Intercessors that have come off the wall, STAND UP!!! TAKE YOUR PLACE AGAIN!!!!”
I then heard the Lord speaking to the intercessors that have continued to stand in the gap, to UP their INTERCESSION to cover our nation. I sensed the need for PROTECTION over our nation right now.
As the intercessors took their place again, as they increased their intercession, as the leaders examined their hearts and lives for compromise, I saw a GREAT UNITY OF PURITY taking place in Australia, and I could hear the sound of DOORS CLOSING in the Spirit in Australia. Doors that have been opened to the enemy SLAMMED SHUT.
I then saw the word over the nation, “BATTALION,” which is defined as “a large body of troops ready for battle; a large organized group of people pursuing a common aim” (Source: Google.com)
The Lord is raising up His Church as a BATTALION and I saw a BATTALION of angels standing with them.
The Lord then showed me the word BATTALION again and I saw the word change to BATTLE LION and instantly I heard the Lord say, “BATTLE WITH THE LION!!! BATTLE WITH THE LION OF JUDAH”.
The Lord is drawing us into a deeper place of intimacy with Jesus and revealing Himself as the Lion of Judah who is about to do WAR in the nation of Australia against all the enemy is doing.
As the intercessors arose and increased their intercession, and the COMPROMISE was being dealt with, I saw the BABY in the nation (what God is birthing and doing in this nation) come back into the right position.
There needs to be a RETURNING to the FIRST LOVE, JESUS CHRIST as the HEAD and LORD!!!! A returning to the FIRST LOVE by humbling ourselves, trusting Him, moving forward without agenda but simply seeking Him. The pure in heart shall see God (Matthew 5:8).
I heard the Lord speaking over Australia “Australia, My PURITY NATION!!!!!!!” The nation that would be known for her PURITY. In this great cleansing and turning, God is wanting to do now, I saw the orphan, competitive, compromising spirit and stronghold over the nation behind melted away by love and the entire nation set on FIRE with the FIRE OF HIS LOVE!!!!!!!!!!!

When I stopped attending our vibrant, wonderful, Holy Spirit filled church 7 months ago the noise ceased (loud music, large crowd, many messages). I was able to hear the still, small voice.
My church in Australia (as well as the one we attended in Seattle) has a ‘catch and hold’ spirit instead of a ‘catch and release’. Instead of equipping the saints to be released, it adopts an attitude of ‘stay within the fold under your mama and papa leaders’…..and we can list all the reasons why and the pro’s and con’s but what is at the root?……… certainly Lana’s message hits home…..
“Rid yourselves of competition. Rid yourselves of compromise. Rid yourselves of insecurity. Come deeper in intimacy with Me. Lay down agendas….”
One reason for Catch and Hold is Pastors becoming the head of the church instead of five fold ministries under Apostles and Prophets.
Thank you Lana for this word. While I was reading it, I ‘saw’ a particular kind of judgment being made by many of the church’s leaders regarding their specific calling and ministry. Many have experienced just a ‘portion’ of the anointing God has available for their particular calling, whether it is as an apostle, prophet, pastor, teacher or evangelist but what He has reserved for the right season, has not been seen in its fullness. The ‘judgment’ is this: “I already know what that ministry anointing consists of…”. In their ‘judgment’, they deem themselves as already ‘familiar’ with the gifts and calling of God in their ministry but the phrase “eye has not seen nor ear heard” doesn’t seem to apply to them as they consider they DO see and DO hear. It is the same failing the religious leaders of Israel faced when Jesus came and revealed that ‘greater revelation’ of the Father none of them have ever witnessed in their lives. There is a ‘greater revelation’ and ‘anointing’ that is coming and no one is this world will have ‘seen nor heard’ nor experienced yet. It is far beyond what any of us ‘know’. God wants to tear down EVERY barrier and EVERY expectation of what men have experienced in order to make room for what He is bringing. The time now is to cast away the “old wineskins” and make room for the “new wineskins” because the old wineskins will not be able to contain this new wine the Spirit of the Lord is about to release on His church. I hear the same call of the Spirit what Jesus instructed His disciples to do to prepare themselves for the, as yet unknown, baptism of the Spirit. He calls them to PREPARE and TARRY. This is not… Read more »
cindy jacobs recently warned of an event in western australia and for the intercessors to come up against it.
That’s interesting because a few days ago I felt the Holy Spirit was leading me into intercession for Perth.
That is amazing….here is Cindy’s alert –
http://www.generals.org/articles/single/prophetic-alert-for-australia/
That’s awesome! I really know very little about Australia geographically or politically but Perth was on my heart as I prayed in the spirit. Last year I had a dream that was posted on Z3 that was primarily about the collapse of the American oilfield and Germany however my Australian doctor was in the dream twice. At the beginning I saw him briefly and spoke to him but he didn’t say a word and at the end when I was shown the collapse of Germany. He was sitting at a desk, hands clasped and staring straight ahead. Again he didn’t say a word which was unusual because he’s a very friendly outgoing person. After this post by Lana and what Cindy said I have to wonder if he doesn’t indeed represent Australia and how they need to respond at Germany’s demise and the ensuing chaos of the EU.
Thank you Lana for this word and your commitment to our Lord Jesus! I pray that all in Australia stand in the gap and fight with the lion of Judah against the enemy and prosper in Jesus name!
Hi Lana,
Thanks for your revelation.
Purity of the Bride comes to mind. Like Terry Bennett mentions lately in his messages. Spot on.
Thanks
