Prophetic Words and Phrases for Right Now

By Nathan Shaw

We live in exciting times. The following are some words and phrases that God has highlighted to me for right now.

“Revelation Fuels Revolution”

Revelation is never static—it always goes somewhere. An increase in revelation leads to an increase in transformation. There are three strategic areas of revelation: the knowledge of God; apostolic vision; and, personal identity.

1. The Knowledge of God
   
   Every lasting victory has it’s foundation in the knowledge of God. There is no greater revelation. The knowledge of God shifts perceptions and mindsets, removes structures and strongholds, and establishes birthright and belonging. Sonship does not exist without the knowledge of God.
   
   
2. Apostolic Vision
   
   The New Testament reveals true apostolic vision. Apostolic vision raises humanity to new levels of glory. The cross ushered in a new era. The world is not going back. Redemption and transformation are the order of the day.
   
   
3. Personal Identity
   
   At conception we were God-breathed (Genesis 2:7). In that moment we encountered God as our Creator. When we moved away from God we lost touch with our true identity and became slaves to lesser gods. When we were “born again” we were re-created. In the moment of re-creation we encountered God not only as our Creator but also as our Redeemer. The Greek for “born again” also means “born from above.” “Born again” connects us with a person. That person is our Creator, Re-creator and Redeemer. “Born from above” connects us with a location. That location is heaven. We are radically different because our origin is God and our citizenship is heaven. We look different, sound different, think different and act different. We are commissioned to shine for all to see. Humanity and creation will respond.

“Heavenly Mandate, Earthly Mission”

In Ephesians 2:6 Paul pictures the believer seated with Christ in heavenly places. In Ephesians 6:15 he pictures the believer with feet firmly on the earth and advancing with the shoes of the gospel of peace. A profound authority is realized when heavenly mandate meets earthly mission. Suddenly our feet are stronger, our voices more confident, and everything establishes in new ways.

New ways of evangelism are coming forth. Where old ways have failed to penetrate hearts and minds, new ways will not only penetrate, but also disarm, stir, awaken, convict, heal and restore. In the battle for a generation words are weapons. In Psalm 18:34 David declared that God trained his hands for battle. God is training His warriors to use words in a new way.

When we grow in the knowledge of God our words reveal God. This means that when we speak people discover the kindness of God, the graciousness of God, the generosity of God and the truth of God. When we know God, truth works. Truth is not a weapon to belt people with, it is a weapon that disarms and awakens. It is time for new ways of speaking, new ways of evangelism and new dimensions of supernatural witness.

“Decrees, Intercession, Prayer and Prayers”

Priests have authority in the intersection and interchange between heaven and earth. The impartation of decrees, intercession, prayer and prayers will increase and affirm our priestly authority. Decrees, intercession, prayer and prayers are four unique but related impartations. Each is also multilayered. Inside prayers, for example, is language. Inside language is agreement with heaven. Inside agreement with heaven is destiny.

Phrases and single words will come forth and we will know that we are speaking totally in sync with God’s heart and God’s will. We will speak these phrases and words, not as requests, but with the authority of decree. His provision and our prayers will be in agreement!

The Power of “Yes!!!”

When Paul said “Yes and Amen” he knew what he was talking about: “For every one of God’s promises is “Yes” in Him. Therefore, through Him we also say “Amen” to the glory of God” (2 Corinthians 1:20 CSB). “Yes” is a word that carries great authority. God is right now imparting the authority of His “Yes” to many of His wounded and weary warriors. “Yes” is not just a word that we say, it is a word that we become. God’s “Yes” reverberates with a vibrant frequency and a joyful, wholehearted intensity. The more we speak it, the more we reverberate with the same frequency and the same wholehearted intensity.

God’s strategies are both simple and powerful. Here’s one that anyone can implement right now: Start by saying “Yes!” As you continue, yield to the “Yes!” The more you yield, the more you discover the authority in the word, until you are shouting it and decreeing it in ways you never believed you would. That’s when things start breaking over your life—all through the power of one word. The authority of God’s “Yes!” is much greater than the authority of our “No!” It’s time to really believe it.

God increase the “Yes” in our spirits!

“Call Forth A New Breed of Political Leader!!!”

God spoke this imperative to me about my nation, Aotearoa, New Zealand, but I have no doubt that it applies to many other nations. 2026 is a critical election year for New Zealand.

Most of our elected leaders do not see what they need to see. The best of them see dimly. Call forth a new breed of political leader. Don’t look to the seen, the known, or the familiar. Look rather to the unseen, the unknown, and the unfamiliar. Stop striving with what you see and instead call forth a new breed.

Here’s what God showed me about these new political leaders:

• They will be men and women, Māori and Pakeha.
• They will work together.
• Many of them will be young, but they will have wisdom beyond their years.
• There will be some “fathers” and “mothers,” but they will support and inspire, rather than lead and dominate.
• They will be focused.
• They will see where the nation is, where she is suppose to be, and how to get there.
• They will ignore many questions that people are asking and ask many questions that people are not asking.
• They will change the dialogue, change the atmosphere and change the questions.
• The nation will listen to them because My hand will be upon them.
• They will help wake the nation from her slumber.

The imperative from the Lord is: Call them forth!!!

Endorsement from Linda Valen (Master Potter Ministries):

There are many prophetic voices in America who are trumpeting the heart of God in this hour, but Nathan Shaw is from New Zealand! God has given him His heart for America to sound the trumpet too!

This is not a book you can read quickly! Time is needed to ponder the prophecies and let them marinate in your spirit. Their significance, along with the scriptures, teachings, revelation and insight accompanying the prophecies makes this a very important book to read.

Some of the prophecies were given four years ago and attest to the accuracy of the words since they are evident presently!! There are also many “now” words given in 2020 for America as well as other nations.

I highly recommend Nathan’s book.
