Season of Bounty

Season of Bounty issues a visual invitation to step through into the new season of promise God has in store.

Song of Songs 2:13 (TPT) Can you not discern this new day of destiny breaking forth around you? The early signs of my purposes and plans are bursting forth. The budding vines of new life are now blooming everywhere. The fragrance of their flowers whispers, “There is change in the air.” Arise, my love, my beautiful companion, and run with me to the higher place. For now is the time to arise and come away with me.

{vision} A believer’s hand is outstretched. Their hand is symbolically over a new situation in their life. And yet their hand is also Christ’s hand. His resurrection life flows through their hand and new life emerges beneath it. Green grass and flowers spring to forth.

A Prophetic Nugget from Meghan Williams of Dyed4you Ministries is connected to this. It’s called “Embrace the New.”

Song of Songs 2:11-12 (TPT) The season has changed, the bondage of your barren winter has ended, and the season of hiding is over and gone. The rains have soaked the earth and left it bright with blossoming flowers. The season for singing and pruning the vines has arrived. I hear the cooing of doves in our land, filling the air with songs to awaken you and guide you forth.
Beloved, it’s time. You’ve prepared and you’ve waited – longing even for the new season, and now it’s time. Without hesitation step forward in full confidence that I AM leading and you are ready.
So with Me by your side and your hand in Mine, walk with Me into what lies ahead. For though the cost has been high, the wait will be worth it. Rejoice, beloved, and embrace the new.

{hearing} “True strength, true grit.” The Father brought to mind the concept of tempered glass (also known as “toughened” glass), a type of safety glass that is physically and thermally stronger than regular glass. Tempered glass does not break as easily as regular glass nor does it shatter in the same way. In Psalm 34:18 and Psalm 51:17, the imagery for a broken and contrite heart and spirit is akin to glass; in Hebrew, this word “broken” can also mean “violently shattered”. These Scriptures show that God is near to those deemed shattered and that even their broken state is as a sacrifice to Him.

Through this, God is saying that the things that once broke you in the past will not do so again going forward. Although you came to Him as a “shattered” vessel—a living sacrifice—He has made you new. You are a yielded vessel, toughed through circumstances and now strong in Christ because you fully rely upon Him. He has taken the ashes of your past mistakes and given you the beauty of wisdom to walk out this new season that is ahead of you.

As you choose to align with how God sees you, you will realize that your old responses and old thought patterns—the old man—cannot and will not follow you into this land of promise. Choose to embrace the new in faith and joy. Draw upon Christ’s strength and the newness of life that He has filled you with; let His power carry you in the same way that it carried you through the wilderness and winter seasons of your journey in Him.

Another Prophetic Nugget from Meghan Williams of Dyed4you Ministries is connected to this. It’s called “Arise and Bloom.”

Song of Songs 2:13 (TPT) Can you not discern this new day of destiny breaking forth around you? The early signs of my purposes and plans are bursting forth. The budding vines of new life are now blooming everywhere. The fragrance of their flowers whispers, “There is change in the air.” Arise, my love, my beautiful companion, and run with me to the higher place. For now is the time to arise and come away with me.
Beloved, step into your destiny. For I have called you, and you have answered. Burst forth and bloom – show the world all I have cultivated in the garden of your heart over the long season of preparation.
You are beautiful, My love, and all I have seen inside I AM now revealing to the world at large. So shine forth. Blossom and bloom. Arise, and step up into the higher place to which you’ve been called. For I have made you for such a time as this – arise and bloom.

A Word called “New Season, New Life Emerging” from Elisa Eaton of Waiting in the Wings is connected to this.

Song of Solomon 2:10-12 (VOICE) My love responded and said to me, [Him] “Arise, my dearest, my beauty, and come away with me. Don’t you see? The winter is done. The rains and clouds have come and gone. The flowers are unfolding in the fields; the birds are warming up their songs, The cooing of the turtledove is heard throughout the land.”
Behold, you have entered into a new season, beloved. You feel it in your bones and know it in your heart, and yet you are tempted to hesitate because your gaze is fixed on seasons past. Yes, you have known the pain of what it is like to step outside of My timing and My will when you step ahead of Me. You have witnessed that depending upon your own strength and understanding does not bear fruit or profit you. But look at your past with grace and mercy, for from that place of weakness you also discovered true strength and the Source of your life. The winter seasons have passed and they have resulted in a deep abiding joy and a life-giving flow of My Holy Spirit within you. Indeed, I say that you are a tree that is bearing good fruit.
As you step into this new season, remember that you are an extension of Me. I have created you for good works that will glorify the Father in heaven. Be comforted and be encouraged, beloved; refuse to be intimidated into stepping back. For I know you well and would not call you to step forward into this new season unless I deemed it time. Therefore, trust in Me, continue to abide in Me and be lead by My Spirit. You will know that My hand is in this new season and new direction, for what I move you to do by My Spirit and what I set into your hands will surely prosper and flourish. For blessing I will bless you, and multiplying I will multiply these new seeds of purpose and destiny within you.
Ecclesiastes 3:11 (VOICE) and I know God has made everything beautiful for its time. God has also placed in our minds a sense of eternity; we look back on the past and ponder over the future, yet we cannot understand the doings of God.

Another Prophetic Nugget from Meghan Williams of Dyed4you Ministries is connected to this. It’s called “Surrender Your Plans to Me.”

Jeremiah 31:3 (GW) The Lord appeared to me in a faraway place and said, “I love you with an everlasting love. So I will continue to show you my kindness.
Beloved, never has My love for you dimmed or been diminished. No, it burns like the brightest flame, casting light and bringing warmth – a steady assurance and unyielding support. I AM and have been at your side, and ever will I be.
Let My love strengthen and encourage you – bring you comfort when you are in need. But press forward, beloved. Refuse to turn back. The threshold lies before you, and like a bridegroom carries the bride into the chamber, so, My love, will I carry you as you surrender your plans to Me.
