Shepherd's Rod 2018 (Shepherd's Rods)

2018 is a year of great change in both civil and church government. Watch for a change in church leadership as God removes some leaders and replaces others to protect His name and integrity of its stewardship. Through this radical sifting leaders will emerge and return to their first love Jesus Christ. And get ready for the Second Reformation as truths are revealed in the Catholic Church when the Pope is offered true salvation. It’s a turning back to God in truest form of faith and obedience.

This is a year to behold as we experience great change in America’s government and the media because they have both spun out of control. Watch as the Lord pulls the media’s plug to life support and notches the sail in America’s pride so She doesn’t capsize.

It’s a time of great change for all Christians as they receive new marching orders. They have been prepared and awaiting this moment in time. There’s a fresh anointing available for all who are willing to believe. And each believer will receive new shoes, a new walk and fully acknowledge their identity in Christ. It’s a year of understanding that God’s mercy endures forever.

The Day of Atonement (Yom Kippur) is signified in Scripture as one of the most important dates of the Biblical year since the time of Moses. This sacred day continues as a most significant Holy Day even in the present Church age.

For many years Bob Jones received valuable revelations between Rosh HaShanah and Yom Kippur outlining activities of the Holy Spirit for the seasons ahead. These insights have historically proven to be accurate and strategic blueprints for spiritual emphasis and preparation. Prior to Bob’s passing the Lord commissioned me to continue writing the Shepherd’s Rod. Therefore, my son and I continue seeking the Lord’s prophetic insight and revelation during that season.

The term “Shepherd’s Rod” derives its meaning from Ezekiel 20:37 stating: And I shall make you pass under the rod and I shall bring you into the bond of the covenant.

This Scripture symbolically portrays a shepherd extending his rod as his sheep pass under the staff for evaluation. In like manner, we as the Lord’s sheep, pass under His staff during this season for the same purpose. Jeremiah 33:13 and Leviticus 27:32 provide more clarity in this Biblical principle.

The revelations for each year’s Shepherd’s Rod can be thought of as Heavenly ingredients being added to the Lord’s already existing stew. What is released in any specific year does not expire at the close of that year, but instead unfolds in the Lord’s timing and flavors upcoming events for potential decades. Be encouraged to re-read previous editions to re-acquaint yourself with what the Lord already has brewing.
