The Daughters are Coming!

During my morning prayer I heard a proclamation: "The daughters are coming!” 

Then an image of our incredible location for Wild & Free popped into my mind’s eye: CrossMountain Vineyards—even the name preaches! His favor opened this new spacious wedding venue for us for a fraction of the normal cost. Trust me, it had to be his hand! 

 As I was reflecting on that miracle, I heard the verse many of us have been hearing over the last year. Here it is in AMP: “Enlarge the site of your tent [to make room for more children]; Stretch out the curtains of your dwellings, do not spare them; Lengthen your tent ropes And make your pegs (stakes) firm [in the ground].” Isaiah 54:2

⛺️ We have been working to expand the tent pegs of our spiritual home to make room for the daughters. Now I hear that they are coming, and God has provided (by his grace alone) an enlarged space for us to gather! I believe that it’s his will that this space would be filled with daughters and mothers—forty at least!

Why The Daughters Matter So Much

📖 The spirit is highlighting scriptures to me about the next generation. 

WHY??? Well, first because Jesus loves them and wants them to know him— but also did you know that Psalm 68 says it is the FAVORED YOUTH who will lead the way?! Even those who wrestle with God today will lead us tomorrow! 

See for yourself:

"Astonishingly, it’s the favored youth leading the way: 

princes of praise in their royal robes

and exalted princes are among them,

along with princes who have wrestled with God." (Psalm 68:27) 

🌈 What a promise!

On the same day that I was putting this together, God spoke again as I was getting ready for bed, “The daughters will come carrying sheaves with them.”

📖 Psalm 126 immediately came to mind: 

"Those who sow their tears as seeds

will reap a harvest with joyful shouts of glee.

They may weep as they go out carrying their seed to sow,

but they will return with joyful laughter and shouting with gladness

as they bring back armloads of blessing and a harvest overflowing!

I believe that this means that it is the daughters who will bring in a great harvest and that our role is to sow into them. We’re being invited to prepare them to lead in revival! “Thus this saying, 'one sows and another reaps,' is true.” (John 4:37) Revival is a multi-generational work!

Where You Come In

Our upcoming retreat is the ideal way to bring the daughters in! Will you pray about coming alongside us as a mother to prepare for them? Remember, Inspired Women is officially legal nonprofit entity (as an auxiliary of Freedom House Network). That means it is not mine—Inspired Women is OURS! It’s yours as much as you want it to be. It is a household of mothers who will sow into the spiritual daughters. 

Ways To Arise and Build With Us:

• 🌱 Register for Wild & Free: This isn’t just for you anymore! Although we will all receive plenty, I am inviting you to come as leader, minister, and mother. 

• Let us know how you’d like to collaborate and serve with us in order to create this retreat.

• Pray about who to invite and send them a personal invitation.

• Share the event on your social media along with a personal testimonial of what these retreats have meant for you. 

• If that’s not your style then do one even better and personally share your inspired story with those God puts on your heart.

And by the way, it’s literally harvest time!

In closing, I am sending you to be the gatherers of the daughters who will be the harvesters.

🙏🏼 In prayer I recently heard him say, “Send forth the gatherers!" I saw a large golden net that was made up of each of us. We were the net that would draw the daughters in! He will show you who to draw in and how. These are people who won’t hear my call, but they will hear yours and respond because of who you are to them. 

As a cherry on top, this Tuesday right after our Inspired planning call, Ani and I went on a walk and noticed that the moon was especially big and bright. I was tickled to learn that this was known as the “Harvest Moon”. It’s harvest time!

👉🏼Ok so, I poured my heart into this one. Thank you for reading this far 🥰 Would you send me a note, text or Voxer to let me know what God is saying in you about all this? Do you have any confirmations to share? Any concerns? What’s He showing you about our retreat, the daughters, Freedom House, your role in it? Do you have any questions? I’m available— let’s chat!

The daughters are coming! Let’s get the house ready!

🙏🏼It’s time, dear friends, to ask Jesus if he’s calling you to build with him. Ask if he’s calling you to create this retreat experience and/or to bring the daughters to their freedom and identity as wild image bearers. If he affirms this, then I know that you will partner your YES with his, and we will see miracles unfold before our eyes! 💫

👉🏼A note about the registration fee: If you’re able to register at the full amount or donate above that amount, then this will help us to offer more scholarships. AND if you need a scholarship in order to come minister and serve, please reach out! We’ll partner with you and Jesus to make a way. Finances should not keep anyone from attending.
