Ben-Oni

Today as I was running, I came to the point I always stop to walk and decree. Out of nowhere I had what felt like a tidal wave hit me. I was not able (even though out of habit I wanted to) speak my normal decree. In an almost audible voice I heard in my spirit “Ben-Oni” and I could not help but speak and decree this even though I could not remember what it meant. I liken it to the rocks crying out if we do not praise God. It was so strong I don’t have words to describe it.

I quickly looked this up to see what I had been decreeing. Genesis 35:18 details Rachel giving birth to her twelfth son, Benjamin or Ben-oni. She named him “son of my sorrow” in her grief and pain from dying during childbirth. Jacob cherished his son and renamed him “son of my right hand”.

In a place where I normally decree breakthrough I was changed to decree “Ben-Oni”. I could not decree breakthrough if I tried.

There has been a divine shift and we are entering into a new season. Many of God’s people have been expectant for a breakthrough, ready to give birth. There has been fatigue, grief, loneliness, or sickness BUT Father God is changing the script. In the sorrow and pain leading up to the birthing, or new beginning, your Heavenly Father is giving your situation a new name. The shift is today. It is now.

Despite the delay, His promise will come to pass. The seeming setback, or what we thought had been lost in unfulfilled promises, God is redeeming. The day of redemption is today. God has heard your prayer. Like in Daniel 10, angelic armies were released when you first prayed! Though the vision tarried God has ruled in Your favor. Justice will prevail and you are victorious! You will soon see with your eyes what has been established in the spiritual! Our Heavenly Father cherishes you and has broken the delay. Today it shifted!
