Prophetic Word released by Jennifer McPherson

There’s a deep stirring in the heart of God right now concerning leadership in His Church. The Lord is inviting His people—especially those entrusted with influence—to step fully into what He’s building and out of what He’s shaking.

As I sat before Him, I felt His heart—not in anger, but in grief and holy longing. Then I heard these words:

“There are those in My house who see the cracks in the system yet continue to drink from its wells. They have one foot in and one foot out—aware that I am shifting, yet unwilling to step away from the comfort that the old order provides.”

When I heard this, the Lord brought me to James 1:8:

“A double-minded man is unstable in all his ways.”

Then I heard Him say again:

“You will never stabilize what I am shaking. You cannot uphold what I am dismantling. The instability you feel is not the enemy—it is the sound of My movement.”

A Call to Step Away from Transactional Religion

“I am calling for a mass exodus,” says the Lord, “not from the earth through escape, but from the systems that feed ambition and reward performance.

You call it church, but I call it transaction. You call it order, but I call it control.

I am breaking the machinery that has turned My presence into performance and My name into merchandise. You have built platforms to be seen rather than altars to behold Me.”

These words came with a weight of love—a Father’s longing for His children to return to the simplicity of devotion to Christ. This is not a word of condemnation but of invitation: a call to purity, humility, and rest.

The Shaking Is a Sign of His Movement

The Lord continued:

“I am shifting beneath your feet. Do not mistake the trembling for warfare—it is not the enemy shaking your foundations, it is Me.

I am moving the ground you’ve tried to secure apart from My instruction. Many have built on soil I did not prepare, and now the foundations quake.

I am tearing down what has been built from fear and striving. I will not allow new wine to flow into old wineskins. I am preparing a people who will serve not for platform, but from Presence.”

Come Out and Be Separate

“Come out from among them,” says the Spirit of God. “Depart from the systems that profit from performance. Lay down your crowns, your platforms, and your self-made structures.

I am raising up leaders who will not bow to the idol of visibility nor bend under the pressure of perception. They will lead from purity, not position—from intimacy, not image—from union, not ambition.”

This is the hour for authenticity. God is after hearts fully His—leaders who have nothing to prove and nothing to protect, who live unshaken because their foundation is Christ alone.

The New Blueprint

“I am building again,” says the Lord, “but not as man builds. I am forming an ekklesia that lives from intimacy, not influence; from unity, not uniformity; from the fire of love, not the fear of losing relevance.

The shaking you feel is not punishment—it is invitation. Step out of what I am ending and into what I am beginning.

For I am laying a new foundation built on communion, humility, and rest. You will no longer labor for Me—you will live from Me.”

Refining, Not Rejecting

This is not rejection—it’s redirection.
It’s not judgment—it’s alignment.

The Lord is calling His leaders to step off unstable ground and return to the unshakable foundation of Christ. He’s not removing you; He’s refining you. He’s not silencing you; He’s sanctifying your sound.

“I am building a Church that no longer seeks to be famous but faithful,” says the Lord. “A people no longer driven by crowds but by covenant.”

If you feel the ground trembling beneath your feet, know this:

It’s not to destroy you—it’s to deliver you.
It’s not to end your calling—it’s to refine it.

The Lord is saying:

“It’s time to move fully into what I’m building.”

Final Reflection

This prophetic word is a holy invitation. The shaking is not a sign of failure but of formation. God is awakening His leaders to build from the inside out—through communion, humility, and love.

He is asking:
Will you step out of the familiar?
Will you leave behind what no longer carries His breath?
Will you plant both feet firmly in what He’s building now?

The time for hesitation has ended. The Lord is moving—and He’s calling His Church to move with Him.
