I want to share something the Lord gave me early on the morning of June 24th — a word I believe He intends for far more people than just me. If you’ve ever wondered whether God still speaks personally to His children, or felt like His voice was something reserved for others, I think this entry is going to challenge that. The core of what He said is this: His people must expect to hear from their Father. Not hope. Not occasionally wonder. Expect.
What struck me as I sat with this word is how clearly He identified the enemy’s playbook. The enemy’s goal isn’t primarily to make you sin — it’s to destroy your time alone with God, because if he can do that, everything else unravels. The Father pointed me back to the contrast in Romans 8: the spirit of slavery that leads to fear versus the spirit of adoption where we cry “Abba, Father.” He wasn’t speaking abstractly. He named specific channels — dreams, visions, messages through other believers, rhema words spoken directly to your spirit — and He told me to write it all down. He wants the same from you. If you want to go deeper on what that looks like practically, I have more on this ministry and how we pursue that kind of communion.
There’s also something He said about the Remnant that I don’t want you to miss. He said He is positioning people into key places of influence across the world right now — and that slipping into a spirit of fear at this exact moment is how a person misses the assignment God has prepared for them. That landed on me hard. This is not a season for timidity. It is a season for staying yoked, staying connected, and making room so He can give detailed instructions as the day unfolds.
I encourage you to read the full word slowly, more than once. Leave a comment in the community thread — I genuinely want to know which line stopped you. Someone else is going to read your response and recognize God was saying the same thing to them.

- What is the main message of this word from the Lord received on June 24, 2026?
- The central message the Father gave Rick in this word is that His sheep must actively expect to hear from Him — not as an occasional spiritual experience, but as a consistent daily reality. The Lord identifies fear as the enemy’s tool, adoption as the believer’s true identity, and closeness to Him throughout the day as the believer’s greatest protection and clearest source of direction for the path God has prepared.
- How does the Lord describe the many ways He communicates with His people in this word?
- In this entry the Father tells Rick that He tailors His communication to each individual because every believer is unique. He lists dreams, visions, messages through other believers, and rhema words as channels He uses alongside His written Word. He instructs His people to expect these forms of communication, to record them when they arrive, and to stay yoked and attentive throughout the day rather than limiting their receptivity to a single scheduled quiet time.
- Why does the Lord warn against the spirit of fear in this particular word?
- The Father explains in this word that fear is precisely where the enemy wants God’s people — entangled in the enemy’s world, disconnected from God’s voice, and unable to fulfill the assignments He has prepared. He states that He is actively positioning His Remnant into key places of influence worldwide right now, which means this is a critical season to walk in the spirit of adoption rather than slavery. Perfect love casts out fear, and that love is cultivated by staying close to the Father through His word and ongoing communication.
