The Pioneers, the forerunners, the trailblazers. They are moving with the leading of the Holy Spirit to create His pathway and breakthrough in new ways. There is a great birthing these Pioneers are now walking into, they are exploring new lands, conquering new places and they are actively running, stewarding and releasing the new move of the Holy Spirit in these terrains that have not been forged and ploughed before.
Warning for the Pioneers, Don’t Rush Ahead
I saw there was a warning and invitation being released from the heart of God to the Pioneers to remain in the place of REST. The place of REST being the place of being led by His Spirit. I saw a tremendous temptation in the spirit in this season of acceleration and increase to “run ahead” of what God is doing, to attempt to build things before His timing, or to implement things before His unction, out of passion and excitement. The Lord loves the passion and excitement of His Pioneers, but He wants it to be coupled with surrender, yieldedness and sensitivity to His timing and leading.
For the impartation, the revelation and manifestation that is being released to the Pioneers in this season is on a greater scale than many have experienced or carried before, and the heart of the Lord is that the Pioneers steward the increase well, with humility, integrity and sensitivity to His leading.
In the encounters I have had with the Lord lately concerning the Pioneers amongst others, I have felt a weightiness in the spirit that I haven’t felt before, that which He is releasing now is so precious, it is so weighty, it is so valuable. The Lord is looking for the Pioneers who will steward it well and release it with integrity. The place of humility and yieldedness to Him and to His timing, His ways and His strategy is the key to “entering into” this deeper place of revelation of His heart and secrets.
The Library of Heaven
I had a powerful encounter with the Lord recently and in this encounter I saw Jesus and He was inviting the Pioneers into the most beautiful room in the library of heaven.
The interesting thing about this room in the library of heaven was the door was VERY SMALL. The door was tiny, so to “enter into this room” and to move into the invitation the Lord was releasing, there was a significant call to “lay down, and go low”. There was a deeper place of surrender, humility and yieldeness to the Lord that had to take place. It is not a place of “striving to be humble” but a recognition that He is Lord, and we are not. He is the One to whom we hand over the reigns, to lead us, guide us, and speak to us. We hand the reigns of timing over to Him. We hand the reigns of “the way” over to Him. We hand the reigns of how things are “built” over to Him.
It was a place of such deeper surrender to Jesus and trusting Him in His way and timing. The beautiful thing is I could feel so strongly in the invitation to continue to ‘lie down’ and ‘go low’, the plans, purposes and manifestation of what He is building is bigger than what is even being dreamt about by the Pioneers.
I watched as those Pioneers who were living in that place of surrender, humility and the secret place were entering in through this tiny door. The room they were invited into in this season was a room that had wall to wall bookshelves, as high as the eye could see. There were huge ladders up to the top shelves and SO many books everywhere.
Jesus stood in the middle of the room at a large golden table and He was smiling. Behind this huge golden table was a red chair and as the Pioneers who had accepted his invitation entered in, one by one, I heard the loudest declaration booming from His heart, so strongly, it could have crumbled a mountain in a moment.
The declaration was:
“Call to Me and I will answer you, and tell you [and even show you] great and mighty things, [things which have been confined and hidden], which you do not know and understand and cannot distinguish.” (Jeremiah 33:3 – Amplified Version)
My heart was so moved by what I heard, so moved by what I was seeing take place. The invitation to the Pioneers in this season, those who have been living not for the praises of man, not to build their own ministry, not to self-promote, not in striving, but in rest and deep intimacy with Him, were being invited into a place of HEARING and SEEING His heart and secrets unlike ANYTHING they had experienced before. This place was precious, it was weighty, it was a place where the Lord was about to reveal things which had been confined and hidden and release greater clarity, wisdom, strategy and revelation of what He is doing, what He is dreaming about, what He is saying and what is to come.
This place was not entered into lightly, it was a place of seeing and hearing the depths of His heart, a most trusted place that the friends of God were accessing.
I saw Jesus pull down a large book from the shelf and engraved in gold on the front of this large brown leather bound book was Jeremiah 33:3. Jesus invited the Pioneers to come and “take their seat”.
Instantly, I felt His presence fall SO heavily, it almost made me tremble and I knew a deep shift was taking place in the spirit over the Pioneers who had entered in. Not just this invitation into the most precious place of all, the deeper place of receiving the revelations and secrets of His heart, but a greater awakening and manifestation of the power of the Pioneers taking their SEAT. There was such a great awakening of Ephesians 2:6:
“He raised us up with Christ, the exalted One, and we ascended with him into the glorious perfection and authority of the heavenly realm, for we are now co-seated as one with Christ!” – (Ephesians 2:6 – The Passion Translation)
Suddenly, the knowing surrounded me. The chair being red, representing the place Jesus purchased for us by His blood, to take our seat with Him in oneness, seated in heavenly places. In this season of encounter with Jesus, the Pioneers were receiving a greater awakening to their authority and their place, seated with Christ.
They took their seat and opened this huge book. The pages were FILLED with writing, which was written on the page, but as I looked at each line, it was as though I could not only see the words on the page, but each line had a depth that I could see down deep into what looked like rivers of pure, flowing, living water. There was such an incredible sense of drinking in the revelation He was releasing, and thirsting no more for anything else but Him. Each word almost shouted, “As you drink this water, you will never thirst again” (John 4:14), the fountain that will never run dry, yet each drink you take, you become thirstier and thirstier for Jesus, to know Him and to know His Word.
I noticed this scripture was engraved on every page:
“But God now unveils these profound realities to us by the Spirit. Yes, He has revealed to us His inmost heart and deepest mysteries through the Holy Spirit who constantly explores all things.” (1 Corinthians 2:10 – The Passion Translation)
There was a great unveiling of revelation taking place, a depth of revelation of the inmost parts of His heart and deepest mysteries, and it was ALL FOUNDED and FLOWING from Him – Jesus Christ and EVERY WORD deeply, rooted, grounded, founded, flowing and released from the Word of God.
Linger in the Library
For the last year or so I have been having profound encounters with the Lord regarding the Lord looking for those who will LINGER with Him. Over a year ago, the Lord came to me powerfully in a dream and for hours upon hours in my dream, He asked, “Where are those who will linger? Where are those who will linger? For those who linger, I will entrust the secrets of My heart”.
This has been a word I impacted me deeply, and I have been carrying ever since. He is looking for those who will linger with Him, His friends! Those who will sit with Him, to be with Him.
In this encounter, I heard the Lord say “LINGER IN THE LIBRARY”.
In this season of encounter in one of the library rooms of heaven, don’t rush to get out. For there is not just one book the Lord is opening, there are MANY. He has MANY things to show you. MANY things to reveal, and in the temptation to “rush” from this place, or be ‘distracted’ or ‘prioritize’ other things above this place of encounter, will hinder the revelation flow of what He wants to release.
So do whatever you have to do in this season to LINGER IN THE LIBRARY!!!!!
The Lord also asked me a question:
“Lana, in libraries in the natural, what is the atmosphere established?”
I replied, “Quietness, reflection, reading, meditation, absorbing.”
He replied, “Then how much more in a library room of heaven.”
The Lord was inviting His Pioneers into a deeper place of lingering, a deeper place of quietness before Him, being with Him, meditating upon what He is saying, delighting in His presence and hearing His heart. It was a place of encounter and conversing with Him, but I felt the focus the Lord was bringing was upon a “heart attitude” before Him, the position of rest and quietness to hear and receive.
The depth of intimacy being entered into in this place was a place that had not been encountered before, such a deep place that the Pioneers were even being left speechless by what He was speaking, releasing and revealing. Such beautiful, heavy, weighty, awe of God encounters.
I then felt Isaiah 30:15 all around me, a greater level of trust and strength was coming to the Pioneers:
“In quietness and trust is your strength.” (Isaiah 30:15)
The Wolves Have Been Prowling, but Stay Under the Canopy of My Word
He then spoke again:
“The enemy has been coming against you to muzzle you, to silence you, to stop you, to contain you and to prevent you in this season. The enemy has come like a wolf, to bring such deep fear, growling with his vicious lies, growling to cloud the atmosphere, growling to interfere with you hearing from Me, to create greater static and twisting of what I am saying, to hinder the fruit I am growing, the strategy I am releasing to you, and the increase of encounter, visitation and revelation that you have been invited into in this place.
This place represents you, My precious Pioneers, stepping into MORE, more than you have ever known or imagined, but it ALL FLOWS from who I am, My heart and My Word.
The shift has begun and the very confusion the enemy has attempted to bring upon you, that very confusion will now be sent upon him as you step deeper into My rivers of revelation. But you must stay under the canopy of My Word. Do not move from My Word. Stay covered, sheltered and immersed in My Word in this place and watch and see how the wolves will be chased away. Deception and lies will flee and you will move into deeper realms of My truth.
These wolves have come and made noise, attempting to hinder this season of revelation and encounter, but they will not be able to keep up with the revelation I will release to you in this library room of heaven, and the increased favor that will flow from these encounters in this room.
FROM this place of deep encounters with Me in this library room of heaven, you will receive such deep revelation of My heart and My Word that what I have asked you to place your hands upon in the natural with Me in this season and build and forge, the new pathways, new ground, new lands, new territories, will see a major increase of your authority and My favor RESOUND UPON YOU LOUDER than ever.
Where the enemy has come with his army like wolves growling, I have been releasing My angelic hosts into your lives with shofars to HERALD loudly accompanied with My decree in this battle, and the atmosphere and airwaves are being CLEARED. They are being CLEARED so you will HEAR clearly and in deeper ways, and move into this season of the greatest awakening of hearing My voice and knowing the power of My voice and the secrets of My heart.”
Pioneers, there has been a great battle over many of you and what you carry and what the Lord has you forging, forerunning, releasing, the new land, the new places, the new assignments, but take heart, for the invitation upon you into the library room of heaven to access the secrets of His heart and revelation He is wanting to release, is profound. It’s a new place. It’s a new pathway of His heart. It’s a place where you will not only come alive in greater ways to what He has called you to do and release, but also release to others.
The encounters you will have with Jesus in this library room of heaven will release greater strength, refreshing and insight to you for this season and beyond. The word of the Lord to you in this place will break the confines that have held you down, and move you into a deeper place of carrying His heart. Take not this invitation lightly. Take not this season lightly. Take not this place of revelation lightly. For you are being invited into a place of receiving a greater increase in the greatest treasure of all, His heart. His heart for you, for people, for places, for cities, for nations. He doesn’t release the secrets of His heart cheaply. He’s looking for Pioneers who will steward His heart with integrity, purity, and not use His heart or the revelations He releases for personal gain or impure motives. He’s looking for His friends to come closer to Him.
What a precious and profound invitation being released to the Pioneers.
May ALL enter in through their surrender and yieldedness to Jesus! Humility is the key!
What awaits you in this room in the library of heaven will leave you forever changed, undone by the privilege of what He is inviting you into. May our prayer be, “Lord, help me to steward your heart well!”

Hello Lana, I want to confirm what is posted here, by sharing a bit of my testimony about this: I was called to “lay down and go low “. Much to my dismay, I have been called a “forerunner” by multiple people, unrelated, at different times. My primary assignment over the last several years has been to warn of what’s ahead, calling people to repent and turn fully to the LORD. As I shared before in a couple of comments, my lost blog post was the LAST post, as directed by the LORD. That was the “lay down” that I was required to do (lay down the posting of anything on my blog). It has also involved keeping my mouth shut when I’m around other people when I want to speak up about things I know, but am not allowed to share at this time. Being quiet when I want to warn so people can be hopefully ready has been the most difficult and that is the “go low”. In the Library is the time spent with the LORD in prayer (which can even be walking down the hall at work, or doing “chores” or driving) and also quietly listening. The following is something I feel I can share that I was given understanding just this week: I know there is a time coming when the blind will see and then deaf will hear. I understood that to me actual blind and deaf individuals. However, I was given the understanding this week it also means the spiritually blind and deaf; this has given me hope, for my grief has been over the lukewarm, lulled and dulled church-goer who truly do not know the LORD. I also found a reference to that truth in the following verses: Isaiah 29: 18-19 ~… Read more »
I so agree Linda
Linda, thank you for both your comment and more especially your testimony. I have the same burden for those whom are just pew sitting and what I see and hear from the Spirit is so overwhelming, and seeing there is such a chaotic time on the horizon, it makes so much sense to be getting our house in order and to go low while the spirit does the work.
The Spirit has been impressing me with the same instructions as you and so many prophecies are saying (while) In the natural (flesh) man I would have begun so many projects by now.
the scripture the Lord is impressing me with at this moment is,
Psa 110:1
[[A Psalm of David.]] The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool.
Mat 22:44
The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, till I make thine enemies thy footstool?
Mar 12:36
For David himself said by the Holy Ghost, The LORD said to my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, till I make thine enemies thy footstool.
Luk 20:43
Till I make thine enemies thy footstool.
Heb 1:13
But to which of the angels said he at any time, Sit on my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool?
Heb 10:13
From henceforth expecting till his enemies be made his footstool.
A resounding AMEN!
Thank you Lana for sharing,these words resonate deeply with my recent times with the Lord. This is truly the word of the Lord at this time!
Glory to God in the highest heavens,his ways are perfect.To know him and to walk in the Holy Spirit is far more precious than gold or diamonds.Hallelujah,we are loved by the Almighty King of Kings.
Amen to this word from God. I will read the bible more and meditate on his word. The library room in heaven sounds so amazing!
What God has shown Lana is what Jesus called the “Hidden Manna” of in Rev. 2:17. The manna was put into the Ark of the Covenant which was in the Holy of Holies where it was hidden in the heart of God. It is God’s plan for each individual. The Lord showed me that as we pray that in tongues in the Holy Spirit that we are going into one Holy of Holies and partaking of the hidden manna.
“He that speaks in an unknown tongue speaks not unto men but unto God for no man understands him, however in the spirit he speaks mysteries, (hidden secrets).”
I Cor. 14:2.
I think the Apostle Paul was given such secrets in the desert, you can tell by his writing. “Things that are not lawful to be uttered” But yet, written about in Scripture. 1st Corinthians Chapter 7 is one example.
Interesting Dream today, Saturday, April 28th. The last couple of days I have been trying to get caught up on information published through Planetxnews.com, author Terral Croft. He has been tracking seismic and volcanic patterns on the earth through magnetic portal connections in relationship to the Black Star, or as others call it Planet X. As his information is based on science, I do pay attention. His conclusion is that there will be a major crustal displacement either May 15th this year, or May 20th, 2019; that could cause a pole shift. He is leaning towards next year because of the geopolitical upheaval he expects from governments to start around 30 days before the event. Anyway, I fell asleep this afternoon and had a peculiar dream. In the dream, I saw a television screen. I am not hooked up to television. But in my dream, I saw information about an asteroid that was to either hit earth, or come close to earth in two days. The information I saw was coming through a Roku system, that I do have, but is now packed away. I had a quick glimpse of two columns of information on the screen. There were about six lines of information on each side. I had just taken noticed of the information on the screen, when it was no longer there.. I remember seeing one number updated from a 1 to 3. Then I saw a line of information just appear, in the lower right side column, about a news broadcast that was going to come out publically with the information, station, date, and time. I was interested in what they had to say, and wanted to watch the broadcast. I was upset when the information was gone quickly from the screen, and I could not note… Read more »
confirmation! it’s happening! praise YAH. Lots to come into for his honor and glory.

Amazing revelation – we need to always be reminded to “be still and know that He is God”. We need to always seek confirmation from the Most High before embarking on any kingdom project to ensure it aligns with His will and timing.
This dream & words of wisdom from Lana witness to my spirit…I just wanted to soak all the words she shared into my spirit…The Library with the red chair..being ( representing the blood of Jesus (Yeshua) etc…the ladder reaching up to the books on the shelves. Where I work @ the moment in a private home..I go into the Library/study to dust & clean…there is a ladder to the top bookshelves in that study…I have been fascinated with the design of those book shelves in the study…& I love the quietness of just looking & pondering…reminds me of when I was studying @ school & going to the library… When Lana mentioned the wolves…I gasped..! I was reminded of a very vivid dream/ open vision really . It was a hot summers night in 1999..the January Feb. as I live in the Southern Hemisphere…of Australia…down under, in the state of Victoria.My youngest son was 2 years old, my eldest son was 13 & had just commenced year 7…there had been a bit happening in the Leadership of the Christian Fellowship we were attending @ the time & a bit of a fall out..? what really happened & the Truth…only The Lord knows but there were quiet a few folk who left the fellowship & resigned ..some had been there longer than we had been; we attended from 1995- to end of 1999…beginning of 2000. It was a trying time..so much happened so quickly…older Christians in the Lord up & left..as they felt they had no other choice I guess.. To cut a long story short @ the beginning of 1999…we had only been living in the house maybe a month or two…I woke up out of a deep sleep.& had a sense that something was in the room…as I opened… Read more »
Lana, this is a powerful message. It speaks to many of my past experiences this year and to exactly where I am now. I feel very much humbled to wait and act only when told. We can frequently get started on projects, eager to please only to be held up by our impatience.
I would ask for prayer for my close focus and freedom from distraction.
When I hear words like, the pioneers or the Generals or those that…… I am turned of by it. I think to the body of believers who want a title, to be a something. Maybe I am wounded and this word comes from that place. Maybe it is my spirit that is repeilled by these types of words. Why do we have to be pioneers or prophets or kingdom builders? I am saved, part of the remnant. I love Jesus and I sense we are in the end times. The rest is burdensome to me.
It is true the whole world is under the influence of the spirit of Babylon, which is all about exalting self to make our own name great, but the kingdom of God is the opposite. The greatest among us are those who humble themselves by accepting the lowly position of serving others. So these titles are not something we claim for ourselves to exalt ourselves, just helpful descriptions given by the Spirit of God prophetically to help illustrate what He is doing in our life. Pioneer is a great description of what many of us are now doing. And General is a great description of a few seasoned leaders. We are part of an army where we have each been given our specific assignments based on our different levels of maturity, training, knowledge, understanding, and authority, so we are not all in the same positions. Some truly are generals in the realm of the spirit, but again it is not something we should claim for ourselves to exalt ourselves, just something God recognizes, reveals, and rewards.
