  • “I Want My Children to Know Me.” Do you know Him?

    Recently, I began pulling out old journals that dated back five years to the year 2019. I felt compelled to look back over my journal entries where I dialogue with the Lord. In these journals I take down notes from personal revelation, personal prayers and prophetic words. There really is not a rhyme or reason to my journaling. I’d like to tell you that I’m all neat and organized and have them color coded or numbered and so forth, but I don’t. That would be my daughter though :) I simply go with the flow when I journal. I am a visual person by nature, so I actually remember the seasons of journaling by the cover of the journal that I choose. So in a way, I guess you could say I do have a method to this journaling ‘madness’, My journals all have a different cover, whether it be color, design or words on them. That’s an artist for you. Anyways, I was looking to remind myself of past prayer conversations, prophetic words and seasons of revelation. I do this from time to time to see how the Lord has moved and remind myself of His truth in my life. I guess you could say “I was encouraging myself in the Lord” like King David spoke of. This “looking back” reminds me of His goodness and His faithfulness. It shows me the pattern of His ways. I learn how He talks to me and I get introspection into His heart and mind. In addition to that, I can see how I have grown and transformed in Him over the years, both in my relationship with Him, my revelation, and in my own thinking— ultimately, my spiritual maturity. When I pulled out these journals there were four volumes that stood out to me as I leafed through them. I took the four journals and splayed them open to the content that caught my eye. I laid them in a vertical staggered stack so I would return to read and contemplate on the truths displayed. I was seeing pattern of words and entries over that time beginning in 2019. God was confirming His word to me, encouraging me, as well as confirming prophetic words for the body. This morning I went to grab one of the chosen journals and began to read. The theme for that week was ‘perspective shift.’ Again, God was confirming His words and thoughts towards me. Just this last week in my ‘Jezebel Attack’ recovery book group we began to talk about where we set our mind, renewing the mind, and thinking on the things above according to Colossians chapter three — a perspective shift! I am always amazed at how God is speaking, and how the Holy Spirit is leading our hearts and mind in His ways when we are walking with Him, He truly never ceases to amaze me. But I wouldn’t recognize these things if I didn’t know Him; which leads me to the purpose of this post. I flipped the page on this particular journal I was reading from, it turned to the date of June 2, 2019. I began to read my entry and quickly realized I was reading a recorded prophetic word to His children. I don’t recall if I ever published this word publicly. There is a lot that I record in my journals that never make it to the public eye or ear, but yet it remains in my heart and in my mind as I carry it as a prayer. As I began to read this prophetic word I felt the authority and the fear of God knowing these were His words that I had penned. It was a cry of His heart and He was telling me His heart’s desires! But what’s even more interesting is that even if these were my words, it would be the cry of my heart for my own children. Today I want to share with you this prophetic word that came to me through journaling and my time with the Father on June 2, 2019. I believe this is the cry of the LORD’S heart for His beloved Israel, as well as all of us Gentiles that have been grafted into the family of God. This is a reminder to myself of who He is and just how badly and passionately He wants to have relationship with us so that we know Him. I pray you read this and hear the heart cry of our heavenly Father! Hear the call to AWAKEN to Him and come to know Him! The word was recorded as followed: 6/2/2019 Holy Spirit You are welcome HERE! We love You! Thank You Jesus. I worship You! ( I pause in reflection and worship). My children, Oh how I love them—they are asleep. I wish that none would perish, but many will— many think they know Me, but they do not. I am searching for those who really want to know Me. I have so many good things to pour out upon them — so many things that lead to life. They have been led astray by things that lead to death. I just want My children to KNOW ME. I am their reality TV!! I am their Way Maker, their Physician, their Counselor, their help in times of trouble. I am not only a financial provider because Kingdom finances have been established, but I provide ALL things — ALL things— Love, Joy, Peace, Patience, Goodness, Kindness, Faithfulness, & Gentleness! I provide faithfulness for the one who has experienced unfaithfulness. In Me you find rest and security. You can trust me. I provide joy for the mourning, just as Isaiah spoke (Is. 61). I provide kindness for those who have suffered wrong, I provide love for those who feel unloved, I provide goodness for all those who have been treated unfairly in My eyes. I provide peace for the fearful. I AM YOUR PROVIDER! In Me are ALL things! Healing, forgiveness, wholeness, victory, and life! (end word) The cry of His heart is for all—all his children to truly know Him. Take some time this week to reflect on these words and ask yourself “what area of my life do I not know Him in?” Begin to journal and talk to Him about this. I believe He will begin to answer you and speak to your heart. You will hear that voice within yourself, telling you who He is. If you don’t have a journaling practice, I would encourage you to begin today to exchange your thoughts on paper with your heavenly Father. Allow the Holy Spirit to be your guide in your time of prayer, petition, praise, and prophetic utterance. Maybe you do know Him, but due to certain circumstances and the busyness of life or ministry you have gotten away from journaling and truly spending time with Him. You have become tired and weary, your time of exchanging conversation, exchanging desires, or penning His prophetic words have waned— I encourage you today to return to the secret place, return to the abiding life of walking with the Spirit, communing with the Lord, intentionally sitting with Him. He is a personal and jealous God and He is waiting. He loves you and He has good things for you. He will answer you. That is a promise. Loved by Him, Dionne White Daughter, Prophetess, Pioneer of Hope! 4/22/2024 Jeremiah 33:3 NKJV 'Call to Me, and I will answer you, and show you great and mighty things, which you do not know.' Jeremiah 29:11-13 NKJV For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the LORD, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope. [12] Then you will call upon Me and go and pray to Me, and I will listen to you. [13] And you will seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart. Matthew 7:7-8 NKJV "Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. [8] For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened. Galatians 5:22-23 NKJV But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, [23] gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law. Scripture Reading: Romans 8 Romans 8:5-17 NKJV For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit. [6] For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. [7] Because the carnal mind is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, nor indeed can be. [8] So then, those who are in the flesh cannot please God. [9] But you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God dwells in you. Now if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he is not His. [10] And if Christ is in you, the body is dead because of sin, but the Spirit is life because of righteousness. [11] But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you. [12] Therefore, brethren, we are debtors-not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh. [13] For if you live according to the flesh you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live. [14] For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God. [15] For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, "Abba, Father." [16] The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God, [17] and if children, then heirs-heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer with Him, that we may also be glorified together. #propheticword #pioneerofhope #abbafather #spiritualmaturity #christianblog #propheticblog #scribalentries #journalentries #journaling #practicingprayer #thesecretplace #sonsanddaughtersofGod #dionnewhiteministries All material written, visual or recorded on this website is copyright of Dionne White Ministries.

  • HE ALONE IS OUR REFUGE!

    ““HE ALONE IS OUR REFUGE!” TUNE INTO HEAVEN! Throughout the night as I was dreaming I was continually hearing the hymn “Rock of Ages”. I was clearly hearing the first verse. As I dreamt I saw a close up of an old piano being played and someone had removed a piano key that was critical to the hymns original sound. Whoever did this had ill intent, they tried to change the tune to a minor sound. This made the hymn sound off and more eerie. It was not pleasing to the ears. I was in pursuit of recovering the stolen key and desperately wanted to set the old wooden key back in its place in order to bring the piano and the hymn being played back in tune. In summary of interpretation, I believe the thief has come, and unaware to many has stolen our sound, which has caused many instruments of the body Christ have gotten out of tune with the sound of Heaven. All it took in the dream was to remove one key and that threw the whole instrument out of tune and off key, not being able to play and release the sound as intended. One key alone is critical. One voice alone is critical. It’s time to set all keys in place and retune to the sound and harmony of Heaven. There is an important message not just in this dream but the first verse of this song that I was hearing over and over. God is speaking. God, in His loving kindness, is sending us a message; “HE ALONE IS OUR REFUGE!” It is time to HIDE in Him. And when we do this our “key” placement will be right and in our sound will be in tune with heaven. Upon waking I was reminded of a book by Ray Hughes. “Sound of Heaven; Symphony of Earth”. A book written as endeavor to help bring the body of Christ in formation. We have much work to do in order to be the Sound of Heaven on earth. Let us be prayerfully in pursuit of tuning to Heaven and releasing that harmony on earth! Dionne 1/29/2024 ROCK OF AGES Rock of Ages, cleft for me, Let me hide myself in Thee; Let the water and the blood, From Thy wounded side which flowed, Be of sin the double cure, Save from wrath and make me pure. Not the labor of my hands Can fulfill Thy law’s demands; Could my zeal no respite know, Could my tears forever flow, All for sin could not atone; Thou must save, and Thou alone. Nothing in my hand I bring, Simply to Thy cross I cling; Naked, come to Thee for dress; Helpless, look to Thee for grace; Foul, I to the fountain fly; Wash me, Savior, or I die. While I draw this fleeting breath, When my eyes shall close in death, When I rise to worlds unknown, And behold Thee on Thy throne, Rock of Ages, cleft for me, Let me hide myself in Thee. Author: Reverend Augustus M. Toplady; July 1776 (final publication) Subject of the Hymn : REFUGE Scriptures: Deuteronomy 32:3-4; Isaiah 26:4

  • HOPE DEFERRED IS BREAKING AND AWAKENING IS COMING

    HOPE DEFERRED IS BREAKING AND AWAKENING IS COMING- Prophetic Word and Vision 11/30/2023 This is written from a prophetic flow of word, vision and prayer at Global Awakening during a time of worship on November 30, 2023. Word and Vision is as follows. God is wanting to break off hope deferred. He is desiring to fulfill hopes, dreams, and desires so that it will be like a tree of LIFE. He is resurrecting HOPE in this place. He is resurrecting LIFE from dead dry places. Let HOPE arise! Let HOPE return! HOPE again in the ONE who is our great HOPE—Jesus; the anchor for our soul! Breathe on us again God, breathe fresh HOPE and LIFE in us! I see water traveling to the roots of a dry tree. It is so thirsty. The water is in pursuit of the roots to water it from a deep place. As the tree drinks up the water IT IS AWAKENING. I see green leaves forming and buds sprouting. It is becoming a tree planted by the river of living waters again! Let the river flow. Water your trees, Lord. Awaken them. Cause life to live again. Promises are now springing up! Seeds are being watered and dormancy is coming to an end. Let the tree of life LIVE! Bride LIVE! I say LIVE! The river of life is flowing, breaking off hope deferred and bringing forth desires as a tree of LIFE! Awakening is coming like the branch and blossom of the almond tree. We call forth AWAKENING! Oh, God, we have been so dry— a dry and thirsty land! Water us we say! We welcome the river of God! Scriptures in accordance with this word Psalm 1 Jeremiah 1:11-12 Hebrews 11:1 Psalm 63:1 Isaiah 44:3 Psalm 143:6 Jeremiah 17:8 Hebrews 6:19-20 Revelation 22:2  - Dionne White 11/30/2023

  • ARISE 5 FOLD MINISTERS! BREAK OUT OF DELAY!

    RELIGIOUS SPIRITS EQUAL DELAY A word from Dionne White Are you experiencing delay when it comes to your divinely designed calling and assignment? Well, religious spirits just may be the culprit behind this all too common problem! A religious spirit hates it when you “recognize yourself” as a fivefold minister! It will then accuse you of being a Jezebel “calling herself a prophetess” or a “false prophet”. This is the work of the deceiver and accuser himself. Both Leviathan and Jezebel work together in this. These are religious spirits!! The aim is to DELAY the recognition of this fivefold minister or ministry so that reform and transformation cannot happen. It keeps God’s kingdom at bay and restrains its activity and allows the demonic kingdom of darkness to advance. When any fivefold minister has recognition and local “approval” they are given authority to operate in a certain realm of influence. As opposed to leaders working with other fivefold ministers an “HONOR SYSTEM” is enforced putting people in a place of feeling trapped like they can’t operate because they must honor leadership YET they are responsible to obey God to speak and operate in their graces and mantles. You don't want to disobey God but you also don't want to "dishonor" leaders! You feel trapped! Or worse yet MUZZLED! God is wanting to expose and deal with this in the body of Christ on a whole! He wants to see HIS fivefold ministry established. If we could SEE and UNDERSTAND we would see that the purpose of this demonic strategy is to DELAY governmental establishment in the body of Christ which DELAYS the fulfillment of His purposes in a person or a body on the earth. Which DELAYS local, national and global reformation and transformation! I will give you an example. If the President of the United States is not recognized and put into that office because of the mantle (not title) they carry they do not have power and authority to operate in that house. The mantle is the grace. The title is just the “name” of the grace! If we replaced the word “title” with “mantle” I think many would be challenged in their thinking and see things differently. Or even realize they may have been influenced by or partnered with religious spirits. Don’t partner with the deceiver through religious spirits about this. On multiple occasions voices of leaders and the deceiver was telling me, “You are not a prophet! Quit trying to be a prophet. You are just a volunteer. You are just this and that BLAH BLAH BLAH! LIES!!! ALL LIES!! I remember the day it was identified and commissiomed over me from heaven and then God told me to “OWN IT” and I obeyed! The enemy was exposed by God! I began to walk in that mantle without man’s approval or opinion but the people began to identify, recognize and call it out in me even if leaders didn’t. Eventually Leaders along the way began to recognize it and tell me! For that I am so grateful!! It RELEASED ME with GREATER GRACE! It is critical that Leaders DO recognize it, call it out, and establish it on ground! If you recognize it in someone TELL THEM! Encourage them to cultivate their understanding of that mantle and graces and to walk in it with the help of the HOLY SPIRIT! This releases so much more grace to operate in our offices/mantles —not “title”. WHY? So HIS purposes can be fulfilled and HIS KINGDOM can advance. Jesus Himself said “I GIVE SOME TO BE APOSTLES, PROPHETS, EVANGELISTS, PASTORS, TEACHERS…”. If Jesus said it so can we! Let this FREE YOU TODAY! When God said, “OWN IT! I first had to agree with God then that gave way for the grace to come upon me to operate in my office which has a title. You don’t say to a Dr. …”don’t call yourself a doctor” or to a Lawyer…”Don’t call yourself a Lawyer.” We don’t say to the police officer…,”don’t call yourself a police officer!” NO! THAT IS HOW SATAN HINDERS, DELAYS OR STRIPS US FROM THAT PART OF OUR IDENTITY THAT IS CONNECTED TO OUR MANTLE AND CALLING! IT DECEIVES US AND CAN HINDER OUR OPERATION OF AUTHORITY! WE DON'T NEED MAN’S AFFIRMATION BECAUSE WE HAVE GOD’S BUT UNDERSTAND THIS, IT HAS BEEN DECREED AND COMMISSIONED FROM HEAVEN AND NOW IT MUST BE HEARD AND RECEIVED IN THE EARTH. THIS GIVES PERMISSION FOR GRACE TO COME UPON US IN GREATER WAYS TO ACCOMPLISH OUR CALLING! Many of you have been delayed and not advanced and are not fulfilling what God has put upon your life because spiritual authorities have actually spoken against you, and not identified you in this manner. Spiritual authorities have not identified the gifts and mantle on your life, nor recognized that within a public body. We must see and say what heaven is saying in order for it to be established in the Earth. This includes callings and destinies over people! So I’m telling you today part of your delay and your lack of fulfillment is one either because you have not agreed with what God has said over you first as well as it has not been recognized by spiritual authorities, nor given place to be established within a body. Therefore, you cannot properly operate in your authority, power and grace of gifts. 🗣️If this is you, I want to tell you today start by agreeing with what God has said over you! 🗣️Come out of agreement with the religious spirit and the deceiver who is trying to strip you of this identity and force you into a place of false humility and pride, and be faithful then to show yourself approved submitted to God in your identity and your fivefold calling, and or graces within the body of Christ. 🗣️ Repent of and Renounce the religious spirit now! Do this immediately If you were operating in this way with it either as the one with the mantle or a leader, who is not recognizing the mantles.  🗣️Come out of agreement with Fear. Then Ask for greater Outpouring on your life of the Holy Spirit and Fire to walk in courage and boldness. 🗣️Most importantly, forgive those who have done this to you! REMEMBER WHAT GOD SAYS ABOUT YOU BOTH IN SCRIPTURE AND FROM HIS PROPHETIC VOICE TO YOU! CLING TO THESE TRUTHS! IT IS TIME FOR DELAY TO BREAK OFF OF PEOPLE AND HOUSES! IT IS TIME TO ADVANCE! THE RELIGIOUS SPIRIT HAS BEEN EXPOSED. WE SAY THE BLOOD OF JESUS HAS JUDGED THIS VILE SPIRIT THAT ONLY KILLS AND PRODUCES DEATH! WE SAY HOLY SPIRIT WE AGREE WITH YOU THE GIVER OF LIFE! WE RENOUNCE LAW AND THE LETTER THAT KILLS! WE ALSO ASK FOR JUSTICE IN THIS AREA OF DECEPTION, CONTROL AND THEFT. THE ENEMY MUST PAY. WE SAY PAY BACK US UPON US WITH INTEREST AND I DECLARE INCREASE AND PROMOTION! WE DECREE LIFE AND PURPOSE TO THE PEOPLE OF GOD AND HIS FIVEFOLD MINISTERS! WE SPEAK TO THAT MOUNTAIN OF RELIGIOUS SPIRITS AND WE SAY GRACE! GRACE! MOOOOOVE IN JESUS’ NAME! BY MY MANTLE, POSITION, GRACE AND AUTHORITY I CALL FORTH THE FIVEFOLD MINISTRY AND MINISTERS OF GOD AND FOR IT TO BE ESTABLISHED SO THAT HIS PEOPLE AND HOUSES CAN GOVERN EFFECTIVELY. I DECLARE AND DECREE AN EVICTION OF RELIGIOUS SPIRITS FROM YOUR LIFE THIS DAY, DECEMBER 14th 2023! BE RELEASED IN JESUS NAME! HALLELUJAH! GLORY TO GOD! IN THE MIGHTY NAME OF YESHUA! AMEN!

  • The Benefits of Giving Thanks in Prayer

    The Benefits of Giving Thanks in Prayer Dionne White “In everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.” 1 Thessalonians 5:18 NKJV It’s that time of year again Thanksgiving rolls around in the United States of America. We gather with friends and family at the table giving thanks for God’s bounty and blessings in the season and how He has kept us through the year. We share meals, stories, laughs and maybe even tears. We shift our focus to a “thanksgiving” mindset. This should be the mindset that we practice and keep all year long. Unfortunately, at times the cares of the world overwhelm us, we get busy and distracted forgetting this gift of giving thanks to the Lord. In the New King James Version, the phrase ‘give thanks’ is mentioned 52 times. In addition to this, the phrase ‘thanksgiving’ is mentioned 32 times in the same translation.  God was giving us a pattern to live by in the posture of our hearts and in prayer. He knows that giving thanks is beneficial to our whole being.  It places our focus on the priority which is Him and He knows it will prosper us in all ways. Let’s look first at the benefits of having an attitude of gratitude and living without complaining or disputing. The Apostle Paul directs us in the following passage. Do all things without complaining and disputing, that you may become blameless and harmless, children of God without fault in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you shine as lights in the world,holding fast the word of life, so that I may rejoice in the day of Christ that I have not run in vain or or labored in vain. Philippians 2:14 -16. Blameless, harmless, children of God without fault — that is enough to make me want to operate in thanksgiving always. In addition to this He tells us why we must do this. So that we can be children that shine as lights in the world as we live by the word of life. God always has a good purpose for why He wants us to do or not to do something. He always has our best interest in mind. His word and living a prayer life of gratitude will produce life! This is good news! The Trade of “Giving Thanks” When we pray with thanksgiving, we are making a holy trade building our righteous altar and devotion to the Lord. This practice in prayer allows Him to rest and remain as the King of our hearts. For it says, “But You are holy, enthroned in the praises of Israel. Our fathers trusted in You; They trusted, and You delivered them.” Psalm 22:3,4 NKJV. Our hearts become a place of exchange as we pray, give thanks, and trust Him. The result is that He is enthroned on the altars of our hearts fulfilling ancient promises, continually delivering us.  Our prayers of thanksgiving are an offering and are praises due to Him. When we make the righteous trade of thanksgiving instead of complaining with negativity we are saying, “I will not let the circumstances of life and negative thoughts rule my words. Instead, I choose to give thanks and praise to the Lord.” We choose to always give thanks in all things because of who He is, and He is good. He knows how beneficial giving thanks is. I believe the greatest place we see this trade of giving thanks is found in Luke 22 where Jesus is conducting the model of what we now know as “communion”. He tells us that the bread represents his body, and the wine represents his blood. He instructs the disciples to do this in remembrance of Him. This is a practice of giving thanks and in exchange receiving the divine benefits of this holy covenant. The Benefits of Giving Thanks in Prayer. In addition to the spiritual practice of communion, giving thanks benefits our minds, emotions, and bodies. Romans 12:1 tells us that we are transformed by the renewing of our minds. When we pray the scriptures by faith with a heart of gratitude, giving thanks to God, we are renewing our minds by the power of His word and the Holy Spirit. It has been said that an attitude of gratitude greatly benefits our minds, emotions, and bodies by eliminating anxiety, depression, stress, lowering high blood pressure and even improving our sleep. It recalibrates our thinking even rewiring our brain patterns. Philippians 4:8,9 gives us instruction of how to think and when we meditate on these words and the goodness of God, we can’t help but prosper in all ways through prayer and thanksgiving. Finally, let our aim be that the words our mouth and the meditations of our hearts be pleasing to the Lord. Psalm 19:14 Choose to begin today salting your offerings with thanks and seasoning your words with praise to the Lord. Watch and see how it will bring life and health to your whole being. From Dionne White Ministries we give thanks for our supporters and prayer partners of this ministry. Will and I send abundant blessings to you and your home this Thanksgiving! May you take time to reflect on Him who has been so faithful to us. We are thankful for all our friends near and far! Happy and Blessed Thanksgiving! In Gratitude, Dionne White

  • GOD IS VINDICATING HIS SEERS. I AM RESTORING MY SEERS TO THEIR PLACE!

    GOD IS VINDICATING HIS SEERS. I AM RESTORING MY SEERS TO THEIR PLACE! By Dionne White It is after midnight on 11/2/2023 and I am moved to prayer as the Lord is revealing some things to me that are connecting dots of other "parts" I have received over many years time. It is a moment of clarity that comes and things fall into place and you SEE EVEN MORE CLEARLY. I write from a place of experience, observation, intercession and repentance on behalf of the five fold ministry and from relationship as I have sat in the counsel of the Lord with this topic for some time. This word is very strong on my heart tonight. The Lord has given me permission to release it tonight. I am receiving confirmation and sensing the Lord’s righteous anger regarding abuse. Yet I feel His heart and love in this word as well. He is restoring the place of the Seer in the body of Christ! For years Seers have seen, confronted and been rejected, ridiculed, controlled unrighteously corrected and shamed all because what they may have seen would have exposed a person, ministry, organization, business etc. The Jezebel spirit has worked with the Python spirit to dominate, intimidate, control, manipulate and silence the Seers. I feel the Lord wants to highlight the Seers that have been abused and rejected in the house of God. One thing about Seers is that they can seem mystical which is entirely biblical. Consider Ezekiel, Ezekiel’s personality reflects a mystical strain. The immediacy of his contact with the Spirit, his visions, and the frequency with which the word of the Lord came to him provide a connection between the older ecstatic prophets and the classical writing prophets. His spiritual experiences also anticipated the activity of the Holy Spirit in the New Testament. To him rightly belongs the title “charismatic.” (Ezekiel Ref; New Spirit Filled Life Bible) Hear the Word of the Lord; GOD IS VINDICATING HIS SEERS. I AM RESTORING MY SEERS TO THEIR PLACE! I am hearing the Spirit of the Lord say, “It is time My Seers are vindicated! No more will My Seers be discarded, discredited or rejected. I will make sure they will be honored, respected and heard. I AM RESTORING MY SEERS TO THEIR PLACE! For they are like My black light and help reveal things others cannot see. Many have prayed prayers of witchcraft against them to hinder their sight and cause them to struggle to see because of fear of exposure. Fear has been released in these vessels of Mine by leaders as a tactic to silence. Many have been deeply wounded and disarmed by abusive words of Spiritual authorities in their life and that stops now! I say healing and restoration BEGIN! The plan of Jezebel to dominate, intimidate, manipulate, blind and silence is up! No more! For too long they have been “put out” of the house for what they have seen in seasons and years past because THEY SAW WELL and what was seen would have revealed unholy hidden things no one wanted known. Nothing remains hidden from My sight whether you receive My Seers or not. Nothing. My Light is increasing therefore deep and hidden things will continue to be exposed. I will deal with those who have abused, dishonored, discredited, rejected, run off and silenced my Seers. I AM VINDICATING MY SEERS. If you have abused these vessels of Mine, Run to Me and Repent! I say run and repent now! Come boldly to My throne of Grace and receive mercy in your great time of need. I will forgive. I will restore. I will give more grace upon grace but you must repent and turn from your ways and I say receive My Seers, for their service to Me is a blessing to you. They are a gift to your house and life. It is time for My seers to take their rightful places again in My houses.” Daniel 2:22 NASBS "It is He who reveals the profound and hidden things; He knows what is in the darkness, And the light dwells with Him. Jeremiah 1:11-12 NASBS The word of the LORD came to me saying, "What do you see, Jeremiah?" And I said, "I see a rod of an almond tree." [12] Then the LORD said to me, "You have seen well, for I am watching over My word to perform it." Isaiah 30:10 NKJV Who say to the seers, “Do not see,” And to the prophets, “Do not prophesy to us right things; Speak to us smooth things, prophesy deceits. Ezekiel 2:4-7 NASBS I am sending you to them who are stubborn and obstinate children, and you shall say to them, 'Thus says the Lord GOD.' [5] As for them, whether they listen or not-for they are a rebellious house-they will know that a prophet has been among them. [6] And you, son of man, neither fear them nor fear their words, though thistles and thorns are with you and you sit on scorpions; neither fear their words nor be dismayed at their presence, for they are a rebellious house. [7] But you shall speak My words to them whether they listen or not, for they are rebellious. Let us stand in the gap and repent as Daniel did. We ask, God, have mercy on us. Purify and Refine Your bride. We say we receive every part of the body for Your good works and advancement of the Kingdom of God. Lord, we ask, restore your Seers and put them in their rightful places. Let the mature Bride arise! In Jesus's Name. Amen In Prayer and Repentance, Dionne White 11/2/2023

  • LET GOD REDEEM AND REVIVE THE FAMILY AND THE BRIDE.

    Two part word: REDEEM AND REVIVE THE FAMILY AND THE BRIDE and AN ADMONISHMENT TO PROPHETS. By Dionne White 10/26/2023 Many have served and served in the church or ministry until they were burned out, their marriage and families fell apart, their finances were drained, and their own time of intimacy with God was forsaken. The list could go on. Here me, serving is GOOD and for many it is engrafted in them as a GIFT or GRACE but when the life around you or your household is suffering then there is a problem, not with the serving but the focus and priority of things. God is calling fathers and mothers HOME as much as he is calling prodigals home. If the parents aren’t “home” serving first and focusing first on family then where will the prodigals come “home” too. Yes, we must be about the Father’s business but broken selves, broken relationships, broken homes create broken churches, the very place prodigals and broken people are to come and find The Father. Here me today, everything else can wait…. Even the “church”. God is able! Examine yourself (I am too), examine your family life, examine your secret place life, examine your relationships.. What area needs to be prioritized? It’s ok, God will understand if you need to take a sabbatical or if you have to say “no” to that opportunity or invite to serve. Make God - GOD again in your life and remove any other idols Holy Spirit may highlight to you. He is exposing hearts, motives and priorities in this season. He wants a family - a healed and whole one that can also be His mighty army. We must not idolize ministry or any gift, grace or “office” HE has called us to and enabled us to do. Because at the end of the day what is it we are really searching for? What is it we are really doing it for? What or who are we really serving? Is it not for the next generation and the unity and redemption of His family? ~ Selah Part Two; A word of warning and admonishment to prophets…. Even though we are highly wired to see black and white, Justice, injustice, righteousness and unrighteousness etc …we must put on love, mercy and honor. We must live, breathe and think REDEMPTION, think kingdom FAMILY, think UNITY. This should be our heart posture. Let HIS love and mercy fill the hearts of His people and His prophets so that we may prioritize our lives rightly with Him. Let Holy Spirit do His job with conviction and may we welcome the reconciliation and redeeming power of Christ into our own hearts, families and churches. It’s time to CAST OFF ALL FALSE REFUGES! MAY GOD BECOME OUR ONE AND ONLY REFUGE! MAY GOD REVIVE THE FAMILY OF GOD! MAY GOD REVIVE THE BRIDE! Our order should be God, Family, Livelihood, Church, Society. In Peace and Life, Dionne Pray with me; Heavenly Father, I confess even now if I have operated out of this divine order in any way putting ministry, church, or society above or before God and my family in any way. I confess if my focus or mind has been led astray or hijacked by distractions causing me to take my focus off of God and Your will — and taking the bait of distraction and frustration. I renounce both of those spirits and will not attend to their altars! I recognize the tactics of the enemy and say that I will guard my heart and soul to keep my mind set on things above and commit to keep my priorities in a Godly, kingdom order even when those things try to invade. I will submit to God; resist the devil and he will flee! I trust you Lord, as a faithful friend and I submit and trust Holy Spirit to help me remain in You and stay accountable to this order. May I be healed as I recognize my areas of need and refinement, confess my weaknesses, temptations and shortcomings, and humble myself before you God - I even submit myself one to another for accountability and healing. God, May You get the Glory and Your reward! Thank you for realigning me and reviving me again in You and Your kingdom family. In Jesus's Name! Amen. Scripture Reading and Meditation; Hebrews 12:1-2 NKJV Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, [2] looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. Colossians 3:1-4 NKJV If then you were raised with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ is, sitting at the right hand of God. [2] Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth. [3] For you died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God. [4] When Christ who is our life appears, then you also will appear with Him in glory. Romans 8:6-8 NKJV For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. [7] Because the carnal mind is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, nor indeed can be. [8] So then, those who are in the flesh cannot please God. Romans 12:1-2 NKJV I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service. [2] And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God. Psalm 46:1-3 NKJV God is our refuge and strength, A very present help in trouble. [2] Therefore we will not fear, Even though the earth be removed, And though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea; Though its waters roar and be troubled, Though the mountains shake with its swelling. ~Selah #revivethefamilyofGod #healedandwholehomes #healedandwholehearts #putonloveandmercy #GodisourRefuge #RevivetheBride #DionneWhiteMinistries

  • YOU ARE A HEAVENLY GATE

    YOU ARE A HEAVENLY GATE Psalm 24:7-8 “Lift up your heads, O gates, And be lifted up O ancient doors, that the King of Glory may come in. Who is this King of Glory? The LORD strong and mighty. The LORD mighty in battle. Lift up your heads, O gates!” I believe the LORD, God Almighty, is wanting us to understand that we are a gate, here on earth, for people to encounter Him and for His power to come through. We are Heaven’s Gate. We are to display His glory. A gate always leads to somewhere. So if we are Heavenly Gates then the reward on the other side of that Gate is Jesus and eternity. But more exciting is that we get to partner with and co-labor with Him here and now, carrying heaven with us everyday, everywhere we go. If you are questioning your worth and value in life and to the Kingdom-this right here is all you need to know that you are important and an integral part to growing the Kingdom. You have great value and many purposes, one of those purposes is to represent Christ and be a gate for others to know Him. Hallelujah that is a thought worth shouting about! YOU are a Heavenly Gate. So like I said, a gate always leads to somewhere. So what are you a gate for? What are you representing and what are you leading people to? I release you to embrace all that God has created you and called you to be! Be that gate in whatever community you have influence in, everyone has a circle of influence. Lead them, show them the way, be the gate to The Way! You're life is the best representation of who you think Jesus is. Show them how they too, can become a heavenly gate. Be that Heavenly gate to hope, be that gate to peace, be that gate to eternity! Be that gate to life! Be that Gate to Glory!

  • GOD WILL HAVE THE LAST WORD!

    PREPARE THE WAY OF THE LORD - #2 You may not think that today's blog topic is a way to "prepare the way of the LORD" but I believe it is and we can learn a lot from this biblical account. True, devoted worship to our God gets His attention. Faith is the currency of heaven. It says that without faith, it is impossible to please God. Hebrews 11:6 NKJV But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him. I believe the faith and resolve of the Hebrew boys in Daniel chapter 3 pleased God and prepared the way for the coming of the LORD into their situation. They did not bow to another, they believed and stood at all costs! The Lord faithfully answered. In this account we see where Nebuchadnezzar's own plans turned on him, losing even some of his own men in the fire. Eventually as we read on into Daniel chapter 4 and 5 we see this evil king driven out and he eventually praises God. Yet another evil king follows but he is slain. God warned them and the writing was literally on the wall. Let's read and talk about it here and see how that mirrors our lives on earth these last three years. GOD WILL HAVE THE LAST WORD! Daniel and his Hebrew brothers understood an evil type of control of narcissism and idol worship under the rule of the Babylonian system with Nebuchadnezzar. Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego were thrown into the fiery furnace because they wouldn’t bow. They wouldn’t take a knee. They wouldn’t: “sit down.” They would not bow! Daniel 3:18 NKJV But if not, let it be known to you, O king, that we do not serve your gods, nor will we worship the gold image which you have set up." There was a resolve in these Hebrew young men who were of great excellence, and had the spirit of God with them. They had a resolve to stand, not waiver, not bow. They did not compromise what they believed in. They did not compromise who they worshipped. They did not compromise in any way, and it got them thrown into the fire. Persecuted! The heat was turned up…BUT GOD! We are coming up on three years of when the thief exposed himself and we watched with our own eyes as he hijacked and sabotaged a critical election in our nation. SABOTAGED AND STOLEN! Another critical decision is coming up. Don’t think a year is that far away. Start praying NOW! The heat is already being turned up in our nation and it continues to be turned up on President Trump. We have to know that Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego did not know how the situation with the fiery furnace would end but they had faith, trust and hope. They believed in their God and they would not bow. They stood. They endured. They waited. He answered! Think about that for a second, they did not know the fourth man in the fire was going to show up. They did not know the Lord would come into the fire with them. We don’t even know if they had these types of experiences personally before this. This was a fiery encounter at its finest. But God! Because of their resolve. Because of their devotion. Because of their faith and worship in the one true living God, HE, GOD ALMIGHTY did not fail them. Because of HIS FAITHFULNESS! We have to believe that HE will continue to show up for us in the midst of the fire. Seven is a divinely perfect number! It’s a glorious number. God is in the fire with us! Don’t underestimate the power of God to show up within our fiery furnace! He will encounter us with His glory and His Deliverance. We must continue to stand in Jesus’ name. GOD WILL HAVE THE LAST WORD! Standing!

  • PREPARE THE WAY OF THE LORD - #1

    Hello and welcome to the new website of Dionne White Ministries! I will be releasing blogs and content from time to time with a "now" word of the Lord and what He is speaking to me and to the body of Christ in this season. Over the next few months I am taking a break from personal/public ministry and preparing for the last half of the year. I will be doing a series of blogs on "Preparing the way of the Lord" and covering different topics in the prophetic in regards to this theme. Prepare your heart to receive the word of the Lord today, as you read about our responsibility and role in helping to prepare the way of the Lord, so that the Lord's purposes may be fulfilled. Blessings Dionne PREPARE THE WAY OF THE LORD -GUARD YOUR HEARTS, MINDS AND MOUTHS FROM UNBELIEF- Elizabeth was pregnant with John(the Baptist) at the same time Mary was pregnant with our Lord Jesus. He, John, was born to prepare the way of the Lord but if his father Zacharias would have remained allowed to speak in unbelief the promise of John  would have never come forth — preparing the way for THE PROMISE for all humanity - JESUS. The LORD had to mute Zacharias so he would not abort or forfeit the promise. You see our words of doubt and unbelief compromise our faith and hinders God’s ability to work. When we compromise we forfeit the promise. Both Zacharias and Elizabeth were righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless. But yet they had no children, she was barren. You could say they were doing all the right things, but yet bore no promise. Favor fell upon the priest Zacharias and his prayers were heard and granted but his tongue spoke contrary to the word of the LORD!! Therefore he was struck mute UNTIL THE PROMISE WAS BIRTHED! Then - Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit upon the presence of the entrance of Jesus in the womb. The spirit of prophecy came upon her by the Spirit of God, and she spoke in faith, saying, “blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb! But why is this granted to me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me? For, indeed, as soon as the voice of your greeting sounded in my ears, the Babe leapt in my womb for joy. Blessed is she who believed, for there will be a fulfillment of those things which were told her from the Lord.” 👉🏼It was imperative that Zacharias NOT SPEAK in UNBELIEF. God made him mute. 👉🏼It was imperative that Elizabeth HID HERSELF for a time. 👉🏼It was imperative MARY BELIEVED & AGREED so that the promise could come forth. I urge you now more than ever to GUARD YOUR HEARTS, MINDS AND MOUTHS FROM DOUBT AND UNBELIEF! Do not entertain, meditate upon or speak anything contrary to what GOD is saying. It would be better to be mute than one who is responsible for aborting the promises of God! God just needs one to birth a promise. But all it takes is one to possibly abort it too. We must agree with heaven, believe in God’s word, and believe what the prophets say it’s so important in order to see the fulfillment of these things that are spoken. Let us put a watch over our mouth in these very very important days. Luke 1:37 “For with God, nothing will be impossible.” Related Bible Reading; Luke 1:1-45 Dionne White 6/28/23 #PREPARETHEWAYOFTHELORD #promisesofGod #speaklife #nocompromise #watchyourmouth #promisesfulfilled #dionnewhiteministries

  • When I saw Jesus

    HAPPY GOOD “BEAUTIFUL” FRIDAY 💛When I saw Jesus💛 When I think of Jesus and his image the picture below is the closest I’ve been able to find that matches what I have seen in my Spirit encounters with him. It is a digital rendering of “the shroud” impressions. In my enlightened opinion He is not like most Hollywood movies or even The Chosen portray him to look. In 1996 - just under 1 year after I had my born again conversion I “saw” him - I was alone worshipping in my apartment in North Carolina at the time. He would “show” himself to me in the Spirit while in prayer from time to time over those “single and seeking” years. So during that time I was led to draw Jesus from my minds eye. From what I remember the image I drew then is very much like the image below. Before I even began to have a “history” with him. It was a time in my life that I was going through a lot. I was living in a new state, in an emotionally abusive and neglected marriage - going through a separation and divorce, and I was learning “how” to be a Christian. God faithfully put Christians in my path to help me through those times- I had met them at or through my work. He truly provided for me everything I needed and then some. His grace was so amazing as I was trying to figure out “how to not live like the world”. But yet I tried to find a church that would accept me because I was soon to be a divorced young woman. I was seen probably with the scarlet “A” on my chest. I didn’t care. I was saved and forgiven seeking to know my savior even more. So I moved on to the next until God blessed me with a Spiritual mom and her example of love and freedom in Christ taught me so much and made me so hungry for him. I wanted to share the image below because I believe this is a VERY close rendering to what He looks like. It matches what I saw as a young woman in the empty apartment in 1996 -1998 — and when I say empty - I mean empty. I had next to no furnishings but He eventually provided for me. So I’d spend my nights in worship and prayer in an “empty” apartment. Then on June 2, 2021 I had another profound encounter that only a few know about…until now - I was transported by the spirit some where while I was sleeping and my daughter accompanied me. “We went up” from my bedroom and then arrived outside a building that had huge white columns on a patio. Then I saw Him sitting off at a distance in a field with a group of others at dawn. They were sitting in chairs shaped in an oval and talking in this field. He was sitting “at the head” of the oval. There was no table or anything. Just them in the chairs. I’d say there were 10-12 people. I didn’t want to interrupt but looked out from behind a column. I traced his profile with my eyes and said in the “dream” “THAT’S JESUS” as I gasped for air! And as soon as I said that he turned and looked and saw it was me, locked eyes with me and he immediately got up and ran towards me with his hair, tunic and shaw flapping in the breeze. I stepped out from behind the column into the field and he came to me with arms open and laughing with joy and embraced me. The encounter came to an end after that and I woke up weeping. He was beautiful! He exuded Joy, happiness, fullness of life, peace, laughter, security, and so much more. He exuded the complete definition of BEAUTY. He is BEAUTIFUL. This is how I remember my Savior and King. In Ancient Greek the word GOOD -kalokagathos means beautiful and encompasses meanings equivalent to English "good", "noble", and "handsome". A complete uprightness and virtuous. So today I remember my BEAUTIFUL JESUS ON THIS GOOD “BEAUTIFUL” FRIDAY. Let us see THE BEAUTY he exudes in all ways and behold that. I feel today was the right day to release this truth and my encounter. JESUS IS REAL AND HE IS ALIVE!! I share this to urge you to seek Him. To look for Him. To wait on Him. He will leave the crowd to come for you! Let this spur your heart on towards a journey of longing to see him! Happy Good and Beautiful Friday. Dionne 4/7/2023 ~~~~~~~ The only thing I will say that is different from my encounters and this image is that in his glorified state encounters with me were his eyes were like blue water/glass. So pure and loving! I’m looking for an image of what I drew almost 3 decades ago but have not found it yet. The artwork was framed and I gifted it away back then. Digital Image source from google.

  • Help! Who Should I Learn From?? 5 Questions to Help You in Seeking a Spiritual Mentor.

    Help! Who Should I Learn From?? Supernatural Mentoring with Dionne White Sometimes it can get frustrating, confusing and overwhelming with the “buffet” of opinions and options available to us in the body of Christ for supernatural and spiritual mentoring. It has posed a problem for those seeking mentoring to discern what is real and authentic and what is not, including having to navigate “spiritual mixture.” I have a passion to see purity and integrity return to every stream of God's ministry in the earth. As a prophet, minister and mentor of the Lord it is my heart to help others be free, equipped and to grow in their spiritual gifts and the ways of the Spirit, as well as to help guide them on their journey with wisdom and sound counsel in purity. One of the situations I have faced and observed often in this world of spiritual mentoring and consulting is that people are “eating from so many different spiritual buffets”. When you come to me for mentoring or consulting I am going to teach and mentor you from “my resource vault” and from the gifts that I operate in. I can assure you that it will be grounded in the word and heart of God. In some instances in the past I have had to spend time reeducating people on some things that may not be exactly biblical or 100% in line with the heart of God because they are gleaning and eating from a different source or buffet, so to speak. Sometimes it may not be entirely wrong, but is it for them and is it for today? So, who do we learn from? How do we find wise, mature and trusted spiritual mentors? How do we discern what “spiritual buffet” we should eat from? Let me give you an example of my own journey. Many many years ago I was happy operating as a “hidden one” and primarily serving the body of Christ in prayer and intercession. I did this for at least 2 decades. Then when God was calling me into a greater realm of freedom and stepping into my prophetic gift and office I desired to learn from others in the same realm. But I was not surrounded by anyone that could technically mentor me in this new level of spiritual maturity. The prophetic seemed to have become "tabu" and almost obsolete in most local churches. My hunger grew by the day for a mentor to help develop me. Let’s be honest, there have not been enough Father’s and Mother’s to raise up the current generation of remnant ministers, prophets, evangelists, teachers, pastors, etc. Unless you spend a lot of money and time at a supernatural school, or university. Not everyone can do that. Even then, will you receive what you longed for as a mentee? I was a wife and mother raising two children at this time of preparation so it made it even a little more difficult. I was invited to join a local ladies Bible study with primarily "older sister" and spiritual mother figures. I went to this group for years building relationships and gleaning from the word of God and wisdom around the table. We studied, prayed and loved on each other. I'm a firm believer in those who seek to pray together grow together in the things of God and God takes notice! It says in Malachi 3:16 "Then those who feared the LORD spoke to one another, And the LORD listened and heard them; So a book of remembrance was written before Him For those who fear the LORD And who meditate on His name." Time came and that season with that group was over. I was moving on seeking greater mentoring for a deeper walk as a prophetic person. So, the question arose, “WHO should I learn from?” I wasn’t sure where to begin and in the church and denomination I was a part of there was no one, especially in the realm of the prophetic. Matter of fact when I approached the Pastor we were under at the time to support me and refer me to go back to Bible college seeking an exhorters license he flat out refused. He didn't just refuse, he told me I was not called to full time ministry. We sought to understand his perspectives and beliefs but unfortunately did not see eye to eye on this. He even asked my husband in my presence if he believed I was called to full time ministry. My husband responded with a strong conviction, "Yes!" (And he continues to support me to this day.) At that time in the church we attended the prophetic and many of the charismatic graces besides tongues had pretty much become nonexistent. They were highly policed or shut down all together. Even tongues became more and more less in operation. After ten years of attendance and service we exited that church and denomination. I began to read and educate myself in the word of God in a greater way by the teaching of the Holy Spirit. My hunger to read and study the word grew. Then I began to seek the Holy Spirit and asked Him to lead me to who He wanted me to learn from. He first said that I needed to identify what my personal spiritual gifts were and how I was designed to operate. Then he said to find a person(s) who operated in the same realm and see who I was most drawn to. I knew that my strongest spiritual gifts from all 3 categories were exhortation, leadership, prophet, word of knowledge, discerning of spirits and prophecy. (See Romans 12:6-8, Ephesians 4:11-13, 1 Corinthians 12:4-11 These will explain Gifts from the Father, Gifts from the Son, and Gifts from the Holy Spirit.) In addition to my spiritual gifts, it was important to know exactly how I operated in those gifts. You might be saying, “what do you mean how?” It comes down to how you connect and hear from God. My prophetic (seeing) gift and other supernatural gifts operated primarily through sight, feeling, and knowing — in the spirit and in the natural. Therefore, it confirmed my operation as a Seer and Discerner/Feeler. So next I was to find WHO was gifted the same. The Holy Spirit was faithful to lead me to other “Generals” in the faith that were gifted the same and I proceeded to read their materials and watch teaching videos, including reading the biblical accounts that pertained to my patterns and interests of calling. I got out my bible college books from 1998 and began to dive back in to that material as well. I gave myself to being a student of the Holy Spirit and these “long distance” mentors of whom I had never met and would possibly never meet. I relied on the Holy Spirit to train me up through my application of study, prayer, and experience. I kept seeking and aligning my life and path with those who were gifted and operating the same as me. I follow the leading of the Holy Spirit. It was evident I was on the right track because in that coming of maturity season I began to face demonic resistance with the spirit of Jezebel and the spirit of religion. It was unfortunately right within the church I served, and I would continue to face Jezebel as I grew stronger in my prophetic gifts and calling. That was my sign that I was on the right track and the enemy was present within many houses and ministers I encountered. In this remaining portion of this article I am going to give you some basic questions to ask the Holy Spirit and ask yourself as you seek to grow in your gifts and calling. Our patterns of interests and even natural inherent strengths and skills, coupled with our spiritual gifts point to our purpose and calling in Christ for the Kingdom of God. I feel it is important to ask Holy Spirit and ourselves the following questions. 5 Questions to Help You in Seeking a Spiritual Mentor. 1. In addition to the Holy Spirit, our first Teacher, WHO does He want us to learn from. Then ask yourself, Am I drawn to them? What "stream" or "camp" of the kingdom are they in? Does it align with what you believe and bear witness with you? 2. Who's DNA do we want deposited in us as we continue to learn and grow in our gifts and callings? As new creations we have the spiritual DNA of Christ, but this is in regard to mentors, teachers, or spiritual parents. This can be looked at as sort of a passing of a mantle, or imparting of the anointing for a calling like Elijah and Elisha. 3. Who has the DNA MOST LIKE JESUS in this realm of ministry? It can be several, but they should complement not contradict one another. This is a very important question because it incorporates character and nature as well as gifting. 4. Does that stream fit my personality that God designed and wired me with? Am I able to learn from their materials or mentoring courses easily without having to have a physical personal relationship with them? Last but definitely not least. 5. What kind of fruit and character of Christ Jesus do they display and produce? Do they display the fruit of the Spirit. Do they give you life and encouragement? Or do they "lord" over you, suppressing you, tearing you down or make you feel less than like a "slave" or servant? I think while we are seeking and applying ourselves to the learning we can ask Holy Spirit to bring us a mentor, teacher, or spiritual parent. I was blessed to be connected to a spiritual mentor that has been walking in the same giftings as me for at least 15 years longer and had more ministry experience than I at this point. She is someone I submitted to for accountability and growth in my prophetic and intercession gifts, as well as she became a prayer and intercession partner. I have grown and over the years we have sharpened each other. We now operate even more as partners in ministry at times. I am thankful God brought her into my life exactly when I needed it, but it only came because I followed the leading of the Holy Spirit along the way. I had already put in many years of personal application and study with the Holy Spirit by the time I met her. I feel it is important that we are diligent to apply ourselves to the leadership and teaching of the Holy Spirit UNTIL— until that person comes along! My mentor Kim and I ended up meeting at a prophetic creatives event and had an immediate connection in the spirit. It was like we had known each other forever. It was easy to be with one another and it was always an uplifting and fruitful time together. So pay attention to how He leads you and where he leads you. You may find a spiritual mentor, teacher, or parent when you least expect it. There is a plethora of material and people out there and the resource options are not slowing down. We must use discernment and wisdom. When it comes down to it we can glean from many but who specifically do we want to truly eat from to nourish and grow our gifts to equip ourselves with? There is a "buffet" of options out there, but it is important to identify which ones are MOST LIKE JESUS and WHICH ONE FITS YOUR OWN INDIVIDUAL PERSONALITY and GIFTINGS. Always look at the fruit or track record of the mentor or minister and allow Holy Spirit to lead you. When praying for and seeking a wise and mature mentor or spiritual parent of sorts let's remember these words from James regarding the fruit of one's life and ministry. James 3:17-18 NKJV But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, willing to yield, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality and without hypocrisy. [18] Now the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace. Amen.
