I heard God in prayer saying the word: CRANE !

I hear God saying that many of you need to be like the crane a bird that is alone, but yet flexible! You see, it is a time and a season for everything! Many times we spend so much time socializing that we can not hear God; so in this season you will need to be flexible like the crane, saith The Lord! The crane is a sociable bird by seasons and he is very territorial and he remains on his territory at all times!

I hear God saying that this is no time to come down off of your territory because, just as the crane looks up to watch, so is the enemy also waiting and watching for you so he can attack!

You see Sanballat, Tobiah, Geshem the Arab, and the rest of our enemies heard that Nehemiah had rebuilt the wall and that there were no more breaks in it — even though he hadn’t yet installed the gates — Sanballat and Geshem sent this message: “Come and meet with us at Kephirim in the valley of Ono.” Nehemiah knew they were scheming to hurt him, so he sent messengers back with this: “I’m doing a great work; I can’t come down. Why should the work come to a standstill just so i can come down to see you?” (Nehemiah 6:1-3)

I hear God saying like the crane, we must stay within our season, territory, and it is no time to come down and the work cease! In this season, we will need to have a Nehemiah anointing upon us! Why? Because the enemy is doing all that he can to stop both the plans and the assignment of God!

This bird likes being in the company of others when in the non-breading season; however the female is less territorial than the male crane! I hear God saying that there is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus, saith The Lord. (Galatians 3:28)

I hear God saying that He wants the work done in this season and there is no time to take down! All because the enemy is trying to divide and to conquer the people of God based upon gender, race, and or status quo in this season! The anointing of God is unbiased, saith The Lord and God will use who ever makes him or herself available in this season!

The crane can eat a wide variety of food when feeding upon the land! They are survivors! The crane is a very vocal creature and has a specialized call when communicating! Just as you will need to have in order to be vocal when well lifting up your voice in this season!

God is requiring that you, as his mouth piece, be like a trumpet showing his people their sins, saith The Lord!

I hear God saying that this specialized vocal call will also need to be used when praising and calling upon the name of The Lord because it will help you to defeat the enemy in this season, saith The Lord!

This special call is a call that only you, the anointed people of God and the lord will recognize in this season, saith The Lord! Why? Because The Lord said, “Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered” (Romans 8:26).

My God, my God! I hear God saying that you will need to be just like the crane in this season, because like apostle Paul, the crane learned to be content in whatever his circumstances were in that particular season. For apostle Paul said that he knows what it is to be in need, and he knows what it is to have plenty. He learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. Apostle Paul said that I can do all this through him who gives me strength (Philippians 4:11-14).

You see, God wants you to use these special calls during (after) the birthing season: just like the crane soon after hatching the crane has a purring call with it’s parents, a food begging call, a chick alarm call, and a flight intention call both of which are maintained at adulthood. The duet call is the most impressive and is used for individual recognition! Why will you need these special calls? Because, I hear God saying that He shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus. (Philippians 4:19) just as he does the crane, so take no thought what you shall eat and drink in this season for the lord shall supply all your needs in this season!

I hear God saying to you that He wants you to be like a crane or a swallow, so did I chatter: I did mourn as a dove: mine eyes fail with looking upward: o Lord, I am oppressed; undertake for me (Isaiah 38:14).

I hear God saying don’t be like Ephraim, a silly dove without heart: they call to Egypt, they go to Assyria. (Hosea 7:11) Follow God in this season and lift up your eyes unto the hills, from which comes your help, saith The Lord (Psalm 121:1).
