Warning: Steeper Curves Ahead
December 4, 2024 Veronika West

Prophetic Rambling — “Warning: Steeper Curves Ahead!”
During my Prayer Time concerning the ongoing shaking within the Prophetic Movement, especially in this season, The LORD spoke to me about the importance of Gifts and Character.
While gifts are valuable, it is Christ-like character that serves as the foundation for everything we do in our Christian Walk!
And I heard The Spirit say, ”Warning; Watch — for Steeper Curves are ahead!”

As I continued to pray, suddenly images of Mountain Goats filled my mind.
These remarkable creatures navigate treacherous peaks with ease, and I heard The Spirit say, “Ask Me for Sharp Spiritual Dewclaws to prepare for the challenges ahead!”
Curious about the word “Dewclaws”, I found this…
“Dewclaws are special structures on a goat’s feet — essentially, they resemble a long, two-pronged hoof positioned where their heels would be if they had heels. These Dewclaws enable goats to grip icy rocks and climb steep terrain, allowing them to leap as high as 12 feet [3.5m] even in uneven landscapes!”
Reflecting on this, I began to see a parallel. We are being called to become as new threshing instruments, equipped with sharp teeth to pulverize the mountains that stand before us.
In this Season of Divine Transition and Growth, we must not solely trust in our Spiritual Gifts, but most importantly cultivate the depth of Christ-like Character.
The “Dewclaw” here symbolises an ability to adapt, to hold firm in uncertain terrain, and to ascend to heights that once seemed insurmountable.
Just as the mountain goats rely on their unique anatomy to conquer the steepest cliffs, I hear The LORD encouraging us to Ask — and Seek after Him for the sharp spiritual tools necessary to navigate the challenges ahead.
The LORD then emphasized that it is not enough to have gifts as powerful as they are — but we must focus on building and establishing Christ-like character, which will sustain us under every pressure.
Gifts can open doors, but it is Christ-like character that will keep those doors open!
I think this is especially crucial as we encounter new threshed experiences — situations that will be sent by God refine us, purify us, challenge our resolve, and require us to dig even deeper into Faith.
With each new challenge, we must ask ourselves:
* What are the cracks in my foundation that have impact Christ like character from being established?
* Where do I need to be pruned?
* Where must I yield in greater ways?
* Where do I need more Grace, Patience, or Perseverance?
I am hearing The Spirit of The LORD inviting us into a deeper place of intimacy and relationship with Him in this hour, where our spiritual senses are sharpened and our spiritual muscles can grow through every trials and tribulation.
Each Mountain we face is an supernatural opportunity, a strategic stepping stone to developing greater resilience and to cultivate The Fruit of The Spirit, bringing us into The Likeness of Christ/
A Christ-centered and Transformed Life, is the Goal!
Today, as I prayed further, I felt a strong urging to intercede — not just for ourselves — but for the all in The Body of Christ!
Pray for the Apostolic and Prophetic Movement.
It’s time to engage in greater ways. We must hold one another accountable in Love and Grace, and always encouraging and cheering each other on to pursue both in our spiritual gifts and most importantly to cultivate The Character of Christ — and together as The Ecclesia. we can be like a herd of Mountain Goats, navigating the steepest of peaks of Faith, relying on the Mighty Way-maker to tackle the cliffs ahead!
In the coming days, let’s seek The LORD for those “sharp spiritual Dewclaws” and become as the new threshing instruments to pulverize the mountains blocking our paths — to greater breakthroughs!
It’s absolutely vital in this hour of intense Warfare, that we are intentionally praying for one another, lifting each other up in times of difficulty, and yet also being mindful to celebrate the victories achieved through steadfast Faith and Trust.
As we advance into 2025 — let us not forget, it’s the combination of our gifts, rooted in Christ-like Character that will embolden us and make us fearless Warriors to take leaps of Faith, to scale the heights of the deeper dimensions, and to navigate the steep and rocky trails of both the physical and Spiritual Realm.
The Spirit reminded me this morning that preparation is Key!
Friends, lets be diligent in our Prayers — seeking The Spirit of Wisdom and Understanding as we embrace The Steeper Curve challenges ahead!
 
Blessings to you all.
