I HEARD THE LORD SAY, “YOU HAVE DRANK FROM THE BITTER CUP OF SUFFERING AND NOW YOU SHALL RECEIVE YOUR REWARD”

There is deep closure happening to the years of loss, pain, grief, and suffering that many have endured. The Lord highlighted specifically the ‘suffering’ that many have endured throughout the many years and some it has felt like all your life that it has been this way. It has been non-stop trials, hardship, set-backs, delays, and great hinderances for years - to where there are moments in your life that you felt like you cannot even remember when things were actually good and, that there was joy abounding all around in your life. It has felt empty and isolated at times, but the Lord has been with you. The Lord showed me that for many, it has been the bitter cup of suffering that you have drank from (Matthew 20:22-23).
​
I heard the Lord say, “You have drank from the cup of suffering and now you shall receive your reward. I will use all things that you have endured for the good, for my mighty hand of restoration is moving swiftly upon you, accelerating the times and shifting the seasons. I am changing the landscape around you from barrenness to fruitfulness. It will no longer remain as it has been, for what I have spoken over you, promised you, and have repeated to you over and over is coming forth by my mighty hand right now. I bringing all things into alignment and into divine order in but a moment. That as fulfillment begins to unfold over and through your life you will know it was only by my hand that this could have been accomplished, by the breath of my word over you causing those things that I have spoken to suddenly come forth. For I hold all the times and seasons in my hand, and I know when it is the perfect timing to bring about what I have spoken to pass over you. I am causing an overhaul of restoration, and return of fortunes of all that was lost and stolen, in such a way that there will be a divine exchange of sorrow for joy in the manifestation of the restoration. You will not know this place of continued loss and pain no more; it will no longer be your story or your future. I am changing the storyline with the fulfillment of my word and promises, that I am right on time and I am about to display my power in unprecedent ways.”

He is the hope of glory (Colossians 1:27), and He is moving and doing only what He can do for His appointed time is upon you, and you are slipping into ‘right place at the right time,’ moments that are happening right now. I have repeatedly heard this verse in (Isaiah 60:22) for the past few weeks, and sensed His perfect timing is imminent!
