Prophetic Words for Encouragement

Updated 16 January 2026

January 1 2026

I heard the Lord say - The masks are coming off and it is the year of the flip.

January 2 2026

This was my real life experience this morning. I sensed the Lord say 'write" as it was unfolding.


I am sitting in a cafe. People are talking, there is music playing. As I look out the window, I see people waiting at a bus stop. There are shops across the street. People are walking along the path. Cars traveling along the road. I hear a phone ring. The cafe assistant brings food to a table. Outside trees are gently moving to the breeze.

I get this surreal feeling like God is watching. Yes, we know he is always watching but I know in my spirit there is something more to this. I try to listen to the Holy Spirit and ask in my mind - what are you saying Lord? His presence is very real and present. I notice that people are just going about their lives, yet it can all be interrupted promptly. I get a sense this is what it is all about. I look out the window to the left - the clouds are looking a bit stormy.

A little boy calls out "Mum, Mum". Laughter is heard from other customers. I hear cafe staff preparing coffee cups, and the sound of the teaspoon being placed on the saucer. I hear the bang as the coffee granules were being bashed out of the portafilter - ready to fill again for the next cup. I ask the Lord again - what are you saying? He was definitely getting my attention. I feel like I am in a movie - it doesn't feel real but yet of course it is.

I sit and wait - I hear more laughter. I see a man with his hand covering half of his face like he was trying to hide from me. I thought it was a bit unusual. More knocks of the coffee thing. Buses come and go. People of all nationalities pass by. It was truly like watching a movie play out. Soft piano music is playing. I sat a while longer. Then it was time to get up and leave. All the time I was still listening to the Holy Spirit.

As I walked out of the coffee shop into a mall, I saw the words 'danger'- and 'merchant'. It was like they were highlighted in my spirit. Danger is self-explanatory - merchant means "a person or company involved in wholesale trade, especially one dealing with foreign countries or supplying goods to a particular trade".

It is hard to shake this as I know there is more to unravel.

God heightened my awareness that he is watching everything; he draws my attention to daily life - and how it can be interrupted abruptly. (Is he preparing us?)

The sky looked grey and a bit stormy. (Uncertainty ahead?)

The fact it was like I was watching this all play out - surreal (like he was giving me inside knowledge)

The little boy calling out Mum, Mum. (This seemed significant somehow - is it to do with children?)

The man holding his hand like he was covering his face - seemed really odd. (Is he afraid to be seen? does this mean exposure?)

People of all nationalities (Is the uncovering worldwide?)

Seeing the words 'danger and merchant' (Is the Lord pointing something out?)


All the while - life is going on as normal. I know the Lord wants this statement in bold letters. I have my thoughts why, but I have no clarity, so will leave it for you to ask the Lord for discernment on this.



Jan 10th

The Lord is not letting this go - he wants me to point out something. I have added a very rough drawing of where I was sitting. He is sitting by the blue line; I am the pink. We were at the end of the cafe, with glass doors/windows around us. There was a wall on the bottom side. No one was sitting at the table in front of me or to the back of me. The man had no reason to hide the right side of his face other than from me. I glanced over at him several times during the 20 mins or so thinking he would take his hand down - but never did. There is something about this. It was spiritual.  I am sure I never knew this man in real life. Perhaps God was just telling me that exposure is coming.

Today is 12 January 2026, in my prayer time I heard  -  'chaos, destruction and mess'. I felt led to repost this word. With what is happening in the world right now - it is a reminder to us that God is in the chaos and destruction. He is setting the world free. The rapids may be rough for a while, but calmness awaits.

Hiding place

  1. a place where something or someone may be safely hidden
  2. a place suitable for hiding something (such as yourself)

My children, it is time to draw into that hiding place like never before. Chaos is near but I am here. I am everywhere. My children stand tall and strong. You are hidden in me. You are set apart and protected. All is well. Hear the sound of my voice.


When you see things falling and crashing in many ways, when you see and hear things that are hard to hear, when things don't make sense -remember that I the Lord prepared you so you could identify and not be alarmed. I am in the chaos and destruction. Feel strong and emboldened and know that you had the heads up. I - your Father - I your redeemer have you all in my hand.

Do not worry and do not lose trust in ME. The rapids may be tough for a while, but calmness awaits.

Today is January 15 2026

The Lord is prompting me to re-share this word again.

TRUST IN ME

Sweet music plays as the walls are crashing, foundations shaking, everything falling.

Making way for My new birth, new growth, new future, new start, new hope, new seeds and new formations.

Do not despair, do not worry. Trust in ME, Hand your lives over to ME. I am in control, I have overcome. I am the Way, Truth and Life. Everything about ME is good. EVERYTHING. I hear your cries; I see your pain. You are not alone. I have you in the palm of my hand. Look ahead. I am fearless, I am strong. I am mighty. I AM GOD.

Proverbs 3:5-6

Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths.

Today is 16 January - in my quiet time this morning I smelt rope and I knew I was to repost this word from 2023


January 13 2023

I see a picture of a dingy in the water - it is not tied. The rope is drifting in the water. there are no oars or outboard motor. No sails. There is someone in the boat and they are motionless. Exhausted, bewildered and past caring.

I believe this is a picture of many who are drifting, being tossed to and fro by the wind with no anchor. The rope signifies a connection to ME says the Lord. How can you expect to feel secure if you don't pick up that rope out of the water? You can do something about it. How do you expect to see me or hear me if you don't listen for me or seek me? Why are you sitting in the boat and letting it drift to nowhere? Why are you letting yourself be at risk? why are you letting the waves slap you around? I need you to pick up the rope and tie your boat to be secure in me. Only you can do that. You have to be willing. You need to know what you are anchored to. Pick up that rope, connect with me. Pick up that rope, connect with me. Whispers - I love you....pick up that rope......connect with me.

How can you know me when you are just drifting and not caring? Seek me. Tie that rope. Come to me with repentance and honest desire a change in your life for the good. I will take care of you and look after you. I will not let you down. Yes, you have been let down. I WILL NOT LET YOU DOWN. It is my promise to you and my promises are true. You will then feel secure. You will feel like a new you. You will see goodness and purity. You will see flowers where they once never bloomed. You will see water where there was once no water. You will see hope where there once was never hope. You will see ME.


Ephesians 4:14 New International Version
Then we will no longer be infants, tossed back and forth by the waves, and blown here and there by every wind of teaching and by the cunning and craftiness of people in their deceitful scheming.
