5785 THE YEAR OF DOUBLE GRACE & OPEN WINDOWS FOR DIVINE EXPANSION AND PROPHETIC FULFILLMENT!
Greeting, As we have stepped into a new Hebrew Year of 5785 as well as 2025 on the Georgian calendar, we are stepping into a window of time and opportunity. What does an opportunity mean? An opportunity is an appointed or favorable time to advance forward. In 5784, the Lord showed me that we were in a Revelation 3:8 NKJV season for the Year of the Open Door for Revelation, Realignment and Renewal for Prophetic Fulfillment! According to Revelation 3:8 NKJV… “I know your works. See, I have set before you an open door, and no one can shut it; for you have a little strength, have kept My word, and have not denied My name.
In some ways we are still in that season as we continue to progress from the door to the window. The Lord has been issuing this clarion call to His Church to come up higher. In this place of ascension, there is a new vantage point and, new levels of revelation. As we’ve come through the door and now look through the windows (opportunities). GOD desires to enlarge our vision and break every limitation so we can see clearer. The Lord longs to show us the things to come so we can be prepared and ready to receive them. The verse the Lord gave me for 5785 is Psalms 18:19 KJV… He brought me forth also into a large place; he delivered me, because he delighted in me. The Theme He gave me for KBCMI is…5785 THE YEAR OF OPEN WINDOWS WITH DOUBLE GRACE FOR DIVINE EXPANSION AND PROPHETIC FULFILLMENT!
In this new Hebrew year 5785, the double fives in this year carry a special emphasis on multiplied grace or the empowerment of GOD. When you put the fives next to each other you get twenty-five, you get the Hebrew word Hen which means to behold. When you think of a window, it’s a prophetic representation of vision. I believe the Lord is increasing our vision, especially in His seers and prophets. As we behold the Lord, He will show us the things to come to declare bold. We must not forget that we are in the decade of the mouth. There is a greater grace and empowerment on the words we speak and declare. This is why since 2020, there often has been a “war of words” concerning many different situations on a personal, national, and international level. It’s important to be mindful and intentional of the words we speak. Not only will we see things to declare but, there will also be situations to behold that will shock us and grip us. There are things coming that we never thought possible. The word unprecedented will become normal to hear it so anchor yourself in the Lord for 5785.
Another insight concerning the five or the Hebrew letter Hei (hey), is that there is an appointed time and season for us to put our hands to the things of GOD, what He has spoken over is. This is not a time to sit back in fear, we must move boldly and confidently. The righteous are as bold as a lion (Proverbs 28:1). It’s time to partner with the word of the Lord, activate it and, see it manifest. This season is one of Double Grace - It Begins with grace and ends with grace.
Right now we’re in a season where the Lord is watching what we do with what we have been given. In Matthew 25, Jesus talks about the parable of the talents. In this parable, a man was leaving away on a trip for some time. He decided to gather his three servants and distribute his money to them while he was gone to tend to it. To one he gave five talents, another man he gave two, and the last servant he gave one talent. The servants with five and two talents went out and invested their talents and were able to multiply and double what they had. The servant who had one talent went and buried it in the ground out of fear.
When the man came back from his trip he accessed what the servants had done with the talents. He was happy to see the servants with five and two multiplied what they had been given. He blessed them and promoted them saying, His lord said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant; you were faithful over a few things, I will make you ruler over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord. Matthew 25:21 NKJV
When the servant with one talent told the man that he had buried for fear of losing it, the man was so furious that he gave his talent to another and banished him away. We’re in a time of promotion and demotion. The Lord is weighing his leaders and his people, to see what they have done with what they’ve been given. He’s measuring and judging our faithfulness and stewardship. We should always be increasing and multiplying because, it’s the nature of GOD. You can’t stay small when you’re connected to GOD Isaiah 60:22 NKJV…A little one shall become a thousand, And a small one a strong nation. I, the Lord, will hasten it in its time.
Lastly, I want to share some insight for Genesis 8. In Matthew 24:37-39 NKJV Jesus makes an interesting reference back to Noah’s time… 37 But as the days of Noah were, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be. 38 For as in the days before the flood, they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, 39 and did not know until the flood came and took them all away, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.
This is the way it will be when the Son of Man returns.” Jesus is saying here, what took place back in Noah’s day will take place as the day approaches of his coming. More and more we’re going to see a clear line and distinction between the righteous and unrighteousness. It will not be hard to tell the difference between the godly and ungodly.
One of the things that enabled Noah to be successful and caused him to get through the flood was, he was a righteous man and he was obedient to the voice of GOD. Can you imagine being the only one who was living right for GOD, when everyone around you was living like heathens. Noah continued to live right in the face of such unrighteousness and wickedness. Even though he looked crazy building a big boat and prophesied a rain was coming like never before, he never gave up on the assignment GOD had given him. He had unshakeable faith in GOD. We must be the same way in this time. May the voice of GOD be the loudest voice we hear and believe in this time.
In Genesis 8:1 NKJV it says, Then God remembered Noah, and every living thing, and all the animals that were with him in the ark. And GOD made a wind to pass over the earth, and the waters subsided. “When you live righteously and stay obedient to GOD, He will never forget you. I want to encourage you today that GOD has not forgotten you or the promise spoken of for you but, that he has remembered you like he did Noah. As he remembered Noah GOD sent a wind to begin to shift and dry up the waters after a great time of testing. In Genesis 8:6 NKJV it says, So it came to pass, at the end of forty days, that Noah opened the window of the ark which he had made. On day 41 it was the dawning of a new day.
In 5785, not only it is a window of opportunity but it’s also a new time and season for you. As Noah sent out the dove (Holy Spirit) a few times waiting for the go ahead, it eventually brought back a fresh olive leaf. As you enter into 5785, there’s new vision and fresh oil, for the new place GOD has brought you into. Just as he did for Noah, GOD is establishing new covenant and reminding you of His promises that has been established in the heavens. As Noah followed the instructions of the Lord, he stayed in obedience, and trusted where GOD would lead him and his family. This is what caused him to overcome and endure.
As the elections have passed in the United States the people have spoken and GOD has honored it. The election was simple and it came down to either voting for light or darkness. Light has prevailed… Glory to GOD so let us now be about our Father’s Kingdom business and take back everything the devil has previously stolen from us.
Blessings,
From the desk of Chief Apostle\Prophet L.R.Gooden Jr.
