A few weeks ago, the Father answered a question I had before Him by allowing me to “randomly” stumble upon an encounter He gave me during Jumpstart 2023. Of course, we know that nothing is by chance and that He carefully orders our steps in ways we cannot fully comprehend. The encounter was this…
I saw an arrow hitting a bullseye. Holy Spirit showed me that, as we dove into the Face of the Deep (the black hole of His Heart, the holy of holies) we were creating a momentum that would pull the sons of God from 30-fold and 60-fold into 100-fold. This momentum would pull the body of Christ into sonship, and it would pull the unsaved into His arms. This momentum did not pull the bullseye into itself but rather caused it to expand. It expanded into the billion soul harvest that we have all heard about, into stadiums filled with people worshipping in total abandon, into signs, wonders and miracles, into the restoration of all creation. But that expansion was only possible because of His sons plunging deeper and ABIDING in the Secret Place.
The phrase “face of the deep” stood out to me, so I began looking up all the words in Genesis 1:2 in Strong’s Concordance:
Formless and void = tohu wa-bohu
Darkness = choshek (darkness, obscurity, secret place)
Face = literally face or faces
I dove into the fiery pool of His beautiful faces. They were flickering Lion, Ox, Eagle, Man… Then mine began to flicker, too.
As in water face reflects face, So the heart of man reflects man.
-Proverbs 27:19, AMP
So the Lord spoke to Moses face to face, as a man speaks to his friend…
-Exodus 33:11, NKJV
Resting in the complete annihilation and nothingness of the Secret Place brings us faces to faces with the One in whom everything exists. There, He calls us His friends. And on the solid foundation of this friendship is build the expansion that brings all things under His / our governance and into His heart… the restoration of all things.
Jumpstart 2026
If you regularly have these kinds of encounters and desire to share them with a group of like-hearted people, or if you long for them, Jumpstart is for you! Over the years, we have had countless people’s gifts and gates unlocked. Others were encountering the Spirit realm all along but just didn’t recognize those gentle whispers until others confirmed them. Every year, we all grow in our intimacy with God, our love for each other, and our cultivation of the spiritual disciplines.
From January 1 – January 31, you are invited to join me at 6:00 am EST Monday – Friday and 7:00 am EST on Saturday and Sunday. We will pray in the Spirit for 15 minutes. Then we will silently and individually encounter the heavenly realm together for 15 minutes (have a journal handy). Then, for the next few moments, we will share the revelation we have received. Every year, I am amazed at the way Holy Spirit weaves us together as His multi-colored, multi-faceted, living tapestry.
If joining us, please honor these guidelines:
1. Feel free to invite people you know, but do not post the Zoom link on social media.
