Sometimes divine alignment will lead you right into the storm. The Bible tells us in Ezekiel 37:1, “it set me down in the midst of a valley.” In other words, God has a location for you.

See, revival thrives in valleys, not in some palace. Not behind cushy pews or pulpits. Revival thrives in dark places.

In fact, God’s miracles literally bloom in the desert, not in some kind of garden spaces where everything is neatly polished. The greatest miracles are in dirt and dust, in places where there’s disease and demonic infestations.

Light in the Dark

See, you don’t need light where there’s already light. God will call you on into the dark places. He set Ezekiel down in the midst of the valley. Even Jesus descended into the grave so that he could be resurrected.

Do you have to go down in order to reach others?

The greatest miracles you’re going to see are going to the places where no one wants to go.

Valley of Need

You have to leave your comfort zone and go to the valley of need, and that valley of need can be the park that’s right down the street from where you live, that can be the supermarket that you visit every week to get your groceries.

We have to believe God for Him to direct our path, and our prayers should be: Lord today, let there be a valley that I can speak into and cause something to be resurrected. (Charlie Shamp said)

Calling and Faith

Faith is trusting in the character of God and His perfect will to be done. Perseverance and patience are developed as you trust God and lean not on your own understanding. The Word of God goes forth promising to not return void accomplishing His good and perfect will.

This is not a storm of destruction but a wind of divine correction and course adjustment. Do not resist the shifting… for I am moving you into the place of promise. What you thought was a setback was actually a setup for My greater purpose.

Sometimes we are called, You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies (Ps23:5). God is gonna bring you what you need before you know you need it. God might need you positioned in a valley or in the dark. Obedience is to say, “Yes, Lord.” When he says go, we go. Listen to the right Spirit.

John 3:8 (NIV)
The wind blows wherever it pleases. You hear its sound, but you cannot tell where it comes from or where it is going. So it is with everyone born of the Spirit.

1 John 3:24-4:1 (NKJV)
²⁴ Now he who keeps His commandments abides in Him, and He in him. And by this we know that He abides in us, by the Spirit whom He has given us.
¹ Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God; because many false prophets have gone out into the world.

Today, yield to the winds of the Holy Spirit. Let go of old mindsets and misaligned partnerships.

Declare: Lord, I receive the winds of Your divine alignment. Shift me where You need me to be. I trust You are guiding and orchestrating events for good. I trust Your hand in the transition! Your will be done. Amen.
