a Royal Preist hood
A Royal priest hood - Published Feb. 16 2023
1 Peter 2:9 - “But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s special possession, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light.”
God is calling out those who are chosen for Him, to inhabit praise for Him, to bring Glory to His name, and His name alone. Who wear crowns of victory, crowns of royalty, placed on their heads by their Father. God has called them and appointed them for such a time as this! Man did not appoint them, but God.
While painting this series I could feel the longing of the Fathers Heart to pour out deep revelation on what it means to be called as a son and a daughter who have been adopted and who know their true authority, who are not easily shaken, but stand firm in their identity, and in their Father.
God began to show me monarchs in the Spirit along with these crowns, with this series, monarchs, representing ‘new birth’ — a new birth, for some, a personal awakening, a fresh flame, that had been lost. He is giving NEW BIRTH. I also saw a NEW BIRTH of a generation that seeks Him alone!
Monarchs are also known to travel long distances — these burning ones — a generation that will endure with the strength of the Lord, like David said, “the Joy of the Lord is my Strength” and “I will strengthen myself in the Lord” to ENDURE in longevity for His return . They will strengthen themselves in the Lord. They will have the joy of the Lord as their strength! They will be trained up from their secret place, not from the ‘quick fill on a Sunday morning’ - it will no longer fill the appetite that God is putting in this generations heart.
I then saw MONARCH - in capital letters, meaning a person who reigns over a kingdom or empire: such as. : a sovereign ruler. : king or queen
God has been raising up an ARMY generation that is not impressed with titles, names, programs, events, but will seek His face alone. That will reign as they have been called, that will not hide behind false humility, but reign in confidence. Ones that will sing with undignified joy, like John the Baptist. He is saying to this generation, ‘COME OUT OF HIDDING, IT IS TIME’ I HAVE CALLED YOU BY NAME I HAVE CHOSEN YOU FOR SUCH A TIME AS THIS, to rule and to reign as I have called you, a Royal Priesthood! “

Having my daughters with me, creating and playing with colors has been such a joy, as a Mama. They teach me more about letting go and remaining free as can be. xoxo
Dancing while painting is definitely a huge part of my creative process
