A Tapestry of Prayer, Prophecy, and Empowerment with Anna Barnes

When my friend Anna Barnes left her law career for the spiritual & entrepreneurial leap of faith, little did she know it would ignite such a profound shift. Join us as Anna recounts her remarkable testimony, highlighting her spiritual awakening & the birth of her calling to mentor the next generation. Witness how her journey from courtroom to a General is not just a personal transformation, but a beacon for women seeking to harness their faith in everyday life.

Our conversation traverses the landscape of youth empowerment, where we venture into the creation of a boys' spiritual boot camp—a fusion of worship, instruction, & practical life and spiritual navigation. This unique experience, birthed through a blueprint from God, instills purpose & identity in young boys, grounding them in their spiritual journeys for life. We peel back the layers of spiritual warfare education, emphasizing its crucial role in shaping resilient, God-hearing leaders poised to rise above the fray of modern-day challenges.

As we wrap up this soul-stirring episode, the significance of prayer, prophecy, & the prophetic takes center stage. We discuss the transformative potential of connecting deeply with God, creating bridges of glory to inspire & electrify our communities. Anna's vibrant narratives of spiritual encounters & the presence of eagles in our lives remind us of the profound impact of spirit-led living.

I pray this episode is like a holy ivy of hope for your soul. Please help me welcome my friend Anna Barnes to the show and I am just excited to have her here. This, literally, is like a divine setup. Let me just tell you we are meeting here from across the ocean and I I don't know, do you? What do you say when you say across the ocean? How do you say it?

Speaker 2: 1:15

I know somebody from england says across the pond oh really, we'll pretty much say on the other side of the world.

Speaker 1: 1:24

Okay, yes, so she is from Queensland and I am just so excited to have her share with you today. This season is Launching Pioneers, and we actually came to know each other through Instagram. I've gotten to know a lot of people through social media across the world and she's just one of those that we just have a lot of similarities when it comes to things that we see prophetically, things that we like words, numbers, the sky, eagles and when I saw the name of her Instagram account, I was like, oh my gosh, yes, girl, we need to know each other. So would love for you to just share a little bit about yourself and then we'll just kind of get into the reflow in.

Speaker 2: 2:14

Amazing. Well, I am, as you said, a long way away from you, so this is very early in the morning and it's about 6, 30 or something in australia. So I have four kids. I've got twin boys that are 16, a 12 year old boy, and then we did thankfully have a daughter and she's 10. So four kids.

Speaker 2: 2:39

And then I used to be a lawyer, like for a professional job, and then I used to be a lawyer like for a professional job, and then my husband and I he's very kind of entrepreneurial, and probably 20 years ago when we got married, we opened a business together and so that was called Ananova, which is jewellery, and then fashion, and then, pretty much ever since then, we have been wholesaling, and we did actually wholesale in America and in the UK, new Zealand, so we did that mainly, and then 10 years ago, god really pushed us into retail. So we also have about eight stores throughout Queensland where we retail, so we buy some other people's product and we also have our product in it as well. But it's just been a journey of God leading and guiding us, and always at the right time. I think what I've learnt is to pivot quickly if he tells you to move or something isn't working to quickly change. So that's what we've been doing for the last 20 years.

Speaker 2: 3:59

I've been a Christian my whole life but really it wasn't until last year, at Pentecost, that I had been praying a lot before then and fasting once a week and just really asking God, you know, for a deeper relationship with him. And on Pentecost last year I had an experience, an encounter with God, where I went to heaven, like I got supernaturally taken to heaven. I was in my car and like going through all the different layers the best way to explain it's like going through layers of darkness, really through the earth, through layers, and then finally before God and all I could do was just scream all the names of God cover my eyes. What am I doing here? God, you've got the wrong person.

Speaker 2: 4:59

I was definitely a lawyer. I was still arguing with God when I got there, like what is happening? Um, but honestly, that's the day that Anna Barnes died and ever since then I have been a completely different person and it's hard to believe that that's only a year ago. In terms of what happens on a daily basis, yeah, so my whole life changed pretty much nearly a year ago. So it's one more month until Pentecost and yeah, that was last year.

Speaker 1: 5:38

Oh, my gosh. So how long have you had? How long have you had your instagram eagles view collective account?

Speaker 2: 5:47

well, less than that, because it was after that encounter and then the whole next day I couldn't even get out of bed and god was giving me prophetic words and I was trying to record it and, um he, it was a series of dreams and kind of him speaking to me to start this page, and I would say it's only about nine months.

Speaker 1: 6:12

Has it really Only been nine months?

Speaker 2: 6:13

Yeah, I feel like it feels a lot longer, but I don't think it was. It's just everything is just such, on this accelerated timeframe, that you feel like it's been forever. But no, it's not, and it's just been those you know steps of obedience where you're like, okay, do this, do that. And then I actually dreamed the shirts Like I saw the eagle with his ways of heart were higher and I saw the encounter shirt with, like the letters going up the back marked for encounter, the bullet hole target. It was all just God's ideas.

Speaker 2: 6:51

So, like he, after that experience, just kept downloading information and at the time, like a year ago, I had no idea how, like all the little pieces of the puzzles of what he was giving me, like I'm like, what is all this for?

Speaker 2: 7:07

And it wasn't until a few months in that I started, or he started, connecting dots for me about what he wanted me to do. What it is that he was downloading to me was actually like a course for um to train really the, the gen z and the gen like the alpha to the gen z, um on how to hear god's voice. And then that's what we did in january of this year is we held a boot camp here for three days where I and another guy who carries that, joshua, and Caleb spirit, we did a. It was set up in like a 30 minute sort of interval thing 30 minutes physical or a game or something, and then 30 minutes spiritual, and then we just banged that out the whole day with teenage boys. God highlighted certain boys that needed to be there and, yeah, I never thought I'd be doing that. But do what you're told, kristen, or else you don't sleep.

Speaker 1: 8:16

Right, wow, so that just was like a download that came and like, what did that look like for you or the guy that was, you know, partnering with you to release this? Did he have something kind of downloaded on his end at the same time, or how?

Speaker 2: 8:34

this how I even found him right. Everything was just this trust, fall or walk, whatever you want to say, but it was like I not I knew I needed like a boot camp commander, so to say, because the whole thing was like a boot camp, a spiritual leadership boot camp, and I knew I needed a male to be there to help me deliver it. And there were guest speakers that got highlighted, like this person needed to impart this section or, you know, different men needed to come and speak. I was one of the only women. I think there was one other woman. She spoke on how to interpret your dreams. Nicole Zock she's become a friend of mine as well. And then Sarah Cheeseman. She's a prophetic person at the Glory City Church where I ended up doing the prophetic course. But God just brought all these people along. But I actually sent the form out Kristen for the course, for the boot camp, without having the boot camp guide. It was a month before the course date. I remember it was the 17th of December and I sent it out to the parents of the boys that God had highlighted as leaders in this generation and I still didn't have a boot camp guy. And about 20 minutes after sending it out to the parents.

Speaker 2: 10:00

I have somebody who works for me at the Gold Coast store and she's quite prophetic as well and you know we prayed and had a good relationship about what God says to her and me and I just felt God say send her the prayer I told you to declare over this next generation and get her to declare it with you, okay. So I send her that and then the cover poster saying we're going to do this course at my house. You know, can you pray with me for these boys, our next generation of prophets, evangelists, pastors, teachers, apostles that the enemy is trying to attack? And she said, anna, call me right now. And I said, oh, okay. So I called her and she said you need to meet my son straight away.

Speaker 2: 10:54

This is him. He's your bootcamp leader. He carries the Joshua and Caleb spirit. He has just competed in the strongman course and had a body transformation where he's lost like 50 kilos in six months or something and turned his whole life around into like a beast. He's like a huge beast now and he's got that story of transformation and he was a youth pastor in the past.

Speaker 2: 11:27

So it all just was like every God had everything orchestrated. And because it was it was not my idea Kristen at all on any level. And so when he tells you to do something, he has every detail covered. And it was just so easy in that I showed him all the topics God wanted covered, from Father's love to then going into other areas, like, like I said to you before, like the Joshua and Caleb spirit. He spoke on that gold glory, girls, like the pitfalls for leadership and what the enemy tries to attack you in. And then I more did, how to hear God, how to really steward his heart and voice. And then other people. We had an encounter day, on the last day where, oh and then I had business leaders come.

Speaker 2: 12:29

Just, it was just doing what God said his way because, as I said, it wasn't my idea, but God showed me in several visions and dreams that he had marked this generation for an encounter with him.

Speaker 2: 12:46

And they are not my words, they are. What the Spirit of the Lord said to me is that I've marked them for encounter. Anna, these are the Joel 2.28, the Acts 2.17, the people upon whom my spirit is going to be poured out in the last days. And you know, we're seeing our sons and daughters, prophesy. We're seeing our young men have visions and old men dreaming dreams, and God is going to release his fire on this generation. I fully believe it. They need to experience the power of the Holy Spirit for themselves and God. They are the standard. God is raising up against the enemy and he told me he has marked them for signs, wonders and miracles. And I keep declaring it at 2.17 pm often, and you know the devil is on notice that his days are numbered, because God is going to use a perilous, you know, time in the world to raise his courageous generation.

Speaker 1: 14:01

And this is that Joshua and Caleb spirit that I was telling you about and you know, that there's so many keys that you just released right now over the listeners about. You know, first of all, he gives us, you know, a blueprint that I look like I don't have all of the answers, I don't have all of the puzzle pieces and and, but as you first step, he'll bring the person you need. He'll bring the provision.

Speaker 1: 14:29

Like what, like looking back on that, you know the, the men, the boys that came to this, like what, what did that look like for them coming out on the other side of this bootcamp?

Speaker 2: 14:47

of this boot camp. Well, most of the parents sent me so it didn't cost them anything. I felt God say to me there's going to be no cost, you're going to pay for everything, you're going to do exactly what I want, how I want it. And I was so careful not to tell anyone anything because I didn't want their input, kristen, I only, I was just so careful with that baby to guard it and just be super diligent on what are we doing, god? What is it that you want? Done and said, and, like all of the parents, you could see the difference, even physically on the children's faces.

Speaker 2: 15:24

Um, after that last day where we had like a, I had a friend come and do a prep like a service of songs not like a service, but like three songs make room and a different one. And then I had, um, some another man who has an activation gift. Prophetically, he came and took the boys through like a bit of an activation and then we all went around and prayed and imparted so everyone there the gifts that they carried. They imparted it to those boys and we each had prayed over the names and we had prophetic words for every boy there. Then they went away with a sheet, like like a sheet probably like three sheets of all the prophetic words combined in their folder with all the other content that God wanted me to give to them to set them up for the future and everything. Everything they needed was in there, like Psalm 91 and just different key points from everyone's tour, their prophetic words, declarations for them to say.

Speaker 2: 16:38

Whatever God told me to do was in that like because I was getting all worried about oh my goodness, how am I going to do a booklet or whatever in like such a short amount of time. God said, no, they're boys. You were just going to put it in one of those plastic folders. You know how it was just like oh okay, are we? And then it was like I thought I was doing both being male and male. I just because I don't know what I'm doing, kristen, I'm just following the leader.

Speaker 1: 17:07

And then it was like I don't know what I'm doing.

Speaker 2: 17:11

I said, no, you're only doing the male leaders. I said, okay, all right, we're just doing boys, we're doing a boy boot camp. So, honestly, it was just what is birthed in the spirit, kristen is maintained in the spirit and, because this was purely God's idea, what came with that was a holy ease and a, like you just said, provision, protection, all of those things, because if he asks you to do something, he is going to carry you, he is going to strengthen you. Because I can assure you I felt very out of my depth. I had never really delivered prophetic words personally to a big group like that. I mean, I had individually in the past, but it was just God pushing and stretching, but it's just about doing things his ways. I can't say that any more than what is his higher ways.

Speaker 1: 18:20

Yeah, as you were coming into, you know delivering the boot camp, you know birthing this, were there times where you know you kind of questioned or you know enemy was coming at you. I think for me, just as an example, when he gives me something, sometimes it seems like it doesn't have enough, enough, like maybe content or information, and it's like, you know, just for example, this last eight week group coaching that I did, I had he gave me eight keys but he wouldn't give me the fullness, the keys, until each week that I was delivering them yep, you're on a need-to-know basis, kristen, kristen, that's what I find and it keeps you constantly reliant on him because you can't do this without him.

Speaker 2: 19:13

You can't, yeah. So yeah, it's like you only get a little piece, like a breadcrumb trail, and it keeps you constantly in that state of humility and yielded surrender because you really are fully out of your depth. Like I'm not a boy, so I don't think like a boy, but it's like God gave me those tools to keep them engaged and to keep it like so there was. It was all sort of based on leadership, like so, making a stretcher, getting the boy in your team on it, taking him up past the pool and around, and there was a. They did something, but then there was a spiritual lesson in it as well. They did something, but then there was a spiritual lesson in it as well. So, yeah, god just kept revealing, like you just said, one little step, one little step, and at what? I didn't even have the exact flow, just like you said, of exactly how some things were going to work. Right, even the last day, the encounter afternoon, if my husband said to me what's that person coming for or what's happening with that, I said, john, I don't know, but God said they need to be here for a reason. So let's just see so, having the flexibility to just also not have everything figured out.

Speaker 2: 20:47

Because my background is being a lawyer and I'm the first child, I've got all those perfectionist traits and it is very interesting that God asked me to do this when he knows my weakness is probably over preparing um, micromanaging every. You know like the weakness he loves to take weaknesses and show off. Do you know what I mean? Like put you completely out of your depth. So it is purely all the glory to him. You know, like you got nothing, you're just bringing your empty vessel and you're praying that he turns up yeah, and he obviously did yep, he really did.

Speaker 2: 21:40

He completely, I know, changed these boys the trajectory as well, like forever, because they have seeds deposited that will, you know, be watered and planted and grow, and I saw changes like immediately. Most of them were very emotional. We worked on a lot of things and you'll appreciate this through cars number plates. So we worked out through all the prophetic words and then asking god what their life scripture was, kristin. And then, um, I got that scripture like a number plate. So, like my name is Ananova Barnes, so mine is A N B 77. I was born in 77, but the 77 God showed me is Matthew 7, 7. That is my life scripture ask and keep on asking, seek and keep on seeking, knock and the door will be opened. And that is what, um, you know we get little breadcrumb trials or whatever, like we spoke about, but we keep asking him, we keep asking for more revelation, like ephesians 117. It's like the spirit of wisdom, knowledge, revelation. We want his mind in all things, on all matters. So it was like they used their number plate like Caleb, alexander Barnes, cab, and then the last three letters were the scripture reference. So it might be 711 or whatever it is.

Speaker 2: 23:19

The life scripture for them was A lot of. One guy was, you know, 61-1, isaiah 61, the spirit of the Lord is upon me. So at the end of the day they got, we did a knighting ceremony and they got given their key with the engraving like a number plate and we read out some of those prophetic words over them and knighted them and it was beautiful, but I couldn't have come up with that. That was something. And I said to the boys this is like you getting your learner's permit. You're doing all the work and then you'll get keys to be able to drive your spiritual vehicle, to be able to drive your spiritual vehicle. So everything was taught and boys love cars. From that point of view, I love it.

Speaker 1: 24:13

Yeah, I love that. You are like activating. You know you've been able to activate that in them at such a young age because it is you know, you and I I would say I had somebody say to me, like you're a code cracker and, yes, be able to like even today, driving a couple different times back and forth like 777, 777, I, like I twice, and it was just like you know, you're seeing these things that maybe most people wouldn't be able to see, and to that is exactly that, yeah, age, I mean, I've always I feel like I've always noticed more things than most people would, but on a spiritual level now, in the last, I don't know, probably five-ish years, but more so the last few years than ever. But but it's like wonder too, wouldn't you say yeah, it is, it's the awe, it's the wonder, it's the signs, the wonders and the miracles.

Speaker 2: 25:14

It's all tied in and that's what I was imparting to them, because you have to see it yourself to be able to impart it, like I said to you before. So that's how I see as well. It's like I can't go like an hour without God showing me something in nature or something on a sign or a number plate or whatever. And the thing was unlocking their spiritual eyes and ears to be able to see. Because that's the problem is the blindness and the deafness spiritually. And God said to me 15 is the new 30, anna. So for me I treated them even like one was spiritually. He's ready. Do you know what I mean? Because I think we probably think back to when we were that age and think, oh, they're just, you know, they're still a little kid or whatever, and maybe in some ways they are. But God said to me they're 30. They are ready. We can't wait any longer.

Speaker 2: 26:24

The enemy is getting in and attacking this generation because he knows they're marked for encounter and he's going early, very young and very early, and trying to rob children of their destiny. And I felt it, even over these boys, that the enemy had been targeting them intentionally, because he knows who he needs to target. He doesn't have to do a big scattergun approach. He does the sniper attacks.

Speaker 2: 26:58

So there were boys there that I could see had a call of God over their life, there that I could see had a call of God over their life, and at school or wherever it was, they were not getting what they needed, which was spiritual problems, need spiritual solutions, and what they needed was to be set on fire with the power of God and start to see him, hear him and recognize his voice.

Speaker 2: 27:40

So that was the main goal of the course was to start equipping these boys to realize that we are in a spiritual battle, they are going to be leaders in the next generation, and how to steward the heart of God, how to hear him, and so like not to and it was also about strengthening them spiritually like to stand strong like the Joshua and Caleb's, not bow to Baal, not bow to Mammon, not to be swayed by the culture of this world. You know, but we talked about calling forth the David hearts, the next generation of leadership, like your Elijahs, your Calebs, your Joshuas, your Moseses, your Daniels, who you might be in the fire, but God's there with you.

Speaker 1: 28:21

God's there with you, and so that was what God asked was we want to fully get these boys equipped for their future, man girl, so as one of the generals leading this boot camp, what changed in you, oh?

Speaker 2: 28:45

wow, oh gosh, boot camp. What changed in you? Oh, wow, oh gosh, um so much. Honestly, just being able to, to fully yield is a big thing. I think that changed in me.

Speaker 2: 29:08

Like yielded surrender would be the word that I would call it in that not your will. You know what I mean. Like it's I signed up to, whatever it's going to take, and that changes you because, like I said to you, you're never going to be the same and you have to die and you have to say it's no longer I that lives, but it's Christ. And if you're going to lead something, you have to have gone through it all first. You know, and I do believe, that God alone can change people's hearts. So I knew we had to present the Holy Spirit in a just, in a beautiful strength that boys could understand as well. In that there is an element of love and beauty, as well as strength, power, war and having the right balance. And I would say that I'm a woman who does have that similar warrior spirit in that, like JL, I will not back down from a fight. I am going to come and like that little ant and I'm going to come and slit your throat and rip it out. Do you know what I mean? Like I am one of those women who are going to war until we see the victory.

Speaker 2: 31:12

And I think it builds that resilience in you that, no matter what, like, come what may, whatever opposition, whatever happens, come what may, I don't move. Do you know what I mean? Having that solid, solid foundation in your identity, in Christ, obviously from a very humble, take the low road attitude, but also knowing that the same spirit that raised Christ from the dead now flows in and through you. So the resurrection power, all of those things. You know I expect people to be healed, I expect things to shift in the spirit. When I pray, like I expect the power of God to move, I expect to be clothed in power from on high. And so it's having the balance of those two things.

Speaker 2: 32:21

And I think that's what God did. He burnt away the characters and the things that were not of his spirit and replaced them with what he wanted in terms of restoring the things that were out of alignment. I think beforehand in me that needed to happen to be able to deliver something in a pure spirit, because that's the goal. It's. Like David, we want to be someone who is pure in heart, so that whatever is flowing out of us is pure. So for me it was probably a year of just purifying your heart to get to a place where you can deliver it. That would be. What changed in me is not my will, but yours, god.

Speaker 1: 33:24

So this last year has just been I mean your own. In essence, you had boot camp to be able to do that I did.

Speaker 2: 33:32

I had the boot camp myself. I felt like what more can you strip what? There's nothing left. God, you know what I mean. But in going through that military kind of fire, it was like an intentional training that God was, by the power of his Holy Spirit. He was doing this training in me on how to hear him, how to see him, how to accurately represent him, and he made me go to Pilates, like because it was mind over matter. It didn't matter how you felt you do what you're told like, like an army sergeant. It's like I'm in an army and I'm in a spiritual army and I I am somebody who gets instructions from you know, the king, about what I need to be doing. So your will has to take a back seat. And so, yes, it was like a year of refining fire.

Speaker 1: 34:50

Yeah, so during that last year, like, if somebody you know this is a question that I know some people might be asking is like, well, how do you hear God? Like, how can I hear God? Because you know both of us and, at least for me, my, my you know process with hearing from him has shifted and changed over the years because I've had a position, I've had to walk through fires, um, you know different situations that you know this, the surrender, the letting go, like you, those are, those are huge keys. At least for me, they were to be able to hear his voice because, like you, I'm the oldest, um, I actually worked in accounting. Yes, it's like you know numbers, facts, you know, yep, all the things, um, but to get into a place from being more um, analytical to being more spirit led like, could you maybe go into that a little bit more? I feel like there might be some people just wondering, like, what does that look?

Speaker 2: 35:58

like yes, on a practical level for sure, and I look back before that experience in Pentecost and there was in me and I know all those things are God-given, but like a hunger and a thirst to really begin to hear from God clearer, and he puts those desires in us. But the first thing that I think of is I actually asked Kristen, you know, like that scripture I said Matthew 7, 7, ask, and it talks about this in Luke 24,. At the end of that scripture Jesus says to his disciples now they had been with him the whole time, right, but at the end of that scripture he says um, wait in the city and wait till you are clothed with power from on high. And I got a revelation of this recently because God reminded me that before that encounter I had actually had somebody give me a key and I'm going to tell you what it was which is she said to me about a month before, because God reminded me, as he always does, because God reminded me as he always does, there was. She said Anna, you've got like this bowl in front of you and it's empty, and it's a bowl that represents your authority as a child of God. You have the keys to the kingdom. You have the manna, but you need to ask for the power of God to literally come upon your life. The power of God to come upon you in a powerful way. You've got the authority, but it is asking for the Spirit of God, by the power of his Holy Spirit, to clothe you in power from on high, because we can't do what he's asked us to do without it.

Speaker 2: 38:24

And from there I see that was a pivotal point where I asked and I expected and I waited and then I received, like in his timing and I think a lot of the times we don't. It's very simple, but we have to ask. So it's like father god, open my spiritual ears and begin a work in me to reveal what is happening in the spirit realm. Help me not to be governed and dictated by what is happening naturally and then begin to thank God, expect God to speak to you in dreams, to give you visions, to begin to speak to you constantly. And I always imagine like that number eight is we don't disconnect Kristen, we stay on the track, we stay hooked up to the NBN and that way, when you are flowing in and under the glory river and I've put some of these declarations on my page is that I declare that I walk in signs, wonders and miracles. I declare that I live and breathe and flow in the glory river and this is about an expectation that I believe. When I situation, I bring the presence and the power of God to shift atmospheres, for people to be healed.

Speaker 2: 40:24

Recently I put on my page as well a vision I had of this. God's just reminded me of an eagle bridge. So this golden eagle I saw all these eagles going up and unlocking the tops of all these white ladders. Then what they did was drop them down like a bridge. And it is like God said to me after. It is like the prophetic.

Speaker 2: 40:54

You need to be prophetic Everybody does because you need to be asking God for the keys to unlock people's problems and people's issues, and only he has those keys. Sometimes it can just be one word that somebody needs or a certain way that you need to deliver the father's love to somebody. He needs you to ask them to forgive their father. Now I've had to say that to people, but I first asked God what he said about a situation. So it's going up and asking the Father and then bringing down that connection to his glory, and that's what God is asking of his people right now is to be the glory bridge to connect people to the Father's love, and how we do that is staying in constant connection with him and asking him to reveal his heart, to reveal, to be speaking to us constantly, like what you said before. We see a number plate, we see 414, we see, oh, you know, for such a time as this, or if we're seeing 111, we're thinking, oh, there's an alignment here. What is it that God? Or an awakening? What is it that God wants to say right now?

Speaker 2: 42:26

And there are tools of stuff that people have put online and books about how to start to recognize, you know how to decode things, what God's trying to say. Start by reading one of those books. I can give you some information on some of them that I've read. Possibly looking at doing a prophetic course. I did the Glory City prophetic course with Sarah Cheeseman. She is amazing. You can do that online. There is an advanced course that I've done recently and, like with you, kristen, get somebody who is a mentor for you, somebody that you look up to, because these things are often caught.

Speaker 2: 43:11

So it's who you are surrounding yourself with as well. You are surrounding yourself with as well. Those giftings and things can rub off on you just by being around a company of people or like a coach or someone who knows how to bring out these gifts in you. But ultimately it is making sure that you are not disconnecting. It is only us who disconnects, not God. So the more you stay in his word, in his presence and keeping your mind fixed like flint on him, asking for the power, ask for it and expect it and thank him for it, they would be the three um keys that I would highlight right listeners, are you catching what anna's putting out here today?

Speaker 1: 44:15

because, because I want to, we'll share her contact information, of course, but she does a lot of Facebook or not Facebook Instagram lives and just that you can. You can feel the power that comes through her voice and I know that what you've come to this point even has not come with. It's not just been handed to you Like you're not. It hasn't been easy and I don't even know your full story, but I know that the things that we have walked through personally, I know that I've walked through a lot, but he has created you, listener, on the other side, you're still here, you're still breathing, you have a purpose and you have power, just like what Anna is talking about, to bring miracles, signs and wonders and healing to others. And we don't even know sometimes and I like to remember that you know when I'm talking to somebody you may not see like an instant, like deliverance or an instant healing or a miracle, but just know that, like when he calls you, like for me, a lot of times people call me God's DJ, because I get music for people.

Speaker 2: 45:32

I hear lyrics, yes, it can sometimes be one line yes, and that unlocks something for them, yep, yes and or just even, you know, in a coaching session.

Speaker 1: 45:45

You know, a lot of times, um, and I know you'll love this, but he calls me a gold digger because, yeah, you can see like it might be. I often see like a panning for gold right when I'm in these sessions and even when you're talking like you're panning for gold and there's something that he wants to show you that you can't see on your own, and that's why we put him inside of us to help us, just like what you did with your map, like you, put up a mirror to these young men to show them their identity so that they can walk in the fullness and the power that God's created them to walk in.

Speaker 1: 46:25

And we can do the same for others. And don't think that it's just you and us two here today that can do that. I used to think, oh, everybody else is. I don't know if you've ever walked through things like that before, where, like I, I I'm not good enough, I, I can't do that. The comparison that can come in um, especially years ago, um, but he can take anybody and I don't know if you have a favorite. Uh, I was asking one of my clients last night to just kind of pull out. You know, a character person in the Bible that she can really, you know, look to in this time as she's launching something really incredible, that's, I like to call it an impossible with God. Do you have, like, somebody in the Bible that has really helped you to like stay the course. I guess that's the best question um, yeah, oh for sure.

Speaker 2: 47:24

But one thing that just when you were talking, um, I should have said as well, with that eagle bridge that I saw Kristen, I felt as well that it was, uh, it was not one bridge, okay, it was like like bridges, on and on, and on and on and on, because everybody, if you are not bringing down your peace, okay, there's going to be gaps in the bridge and there is someone on the other end waiting for you to become the full restoration of your gifting. Do you? You know what I'm saying? Just like you said, only you can do your piece. I can't do your piece. Nobody can do it for you.

Speaker 2: 48:20

So I just want to encourage everybody listening today that there are people waiting on your miracle. Do you know what I mean? That you're going to bring when you go up and you bring back glory for others and you lead them to God's love? So I would just encourage everybody that no one on the planet can do your piece. That was just something I wanted to just reiterate. None of us can do other people's pieces. We all bring a unique piece of the puzzle that we push down in to complete the picture. That was just the last thing I wanted to mention about the Eagle Bridge is you have to be the lighthouse, you have to do your part. No one else can do it. But, yes, as far as someone in the Bible, for me, when I design clothes I've done a lot of palm trees, I've done a lot of bees, I've done a lot of lions there's always a theme in what I'm doing or making with the jewelry or clothes, and for me, the palm trees signify that place of being in your secret place with God, just like Deborah was, and Deborah was a judge and, I think, being a lawyer as well. You have a similar type of DNA and it is the call I feel she had was to get the men to have a will to war.

Speaker 2: 50:08

So, being that woman warrior and that's what I feel is, it's warring from rest, kristen.

Speaker 2: 50:18

We stay in that place, the secret place with the father.

Speaker 2: 50:24

We stay there, a bit like that Eagle Bridge. We get his insight, we get his kingdom, kristen, and we bring it, we draw it down to earth and we release it. So we find what he is saying over something and we decree and declare it and align ourself and come into agreement with what heaven says, not what words, not what, what, not what we are seeing with our natural eyes, but we are declaring heaven's victory and often it is a song, just like you said before. It could be a certain song God gives me for a season, or something is in my spirit, or it could be a certain like. At the moment there's a youth camp on at the end of this week that a lot of those boys are going to and it is we're declaring. They are marked for encounter. Whatever it is that you are warring with, the key is to be in your secret place, like Deborah, where you are warring from a place of rest because you are, you know, know, placing yourself at his feet to receive and then release.

Speaker 1: 51:51

So I'm going with deborah amen, and right before we came on here there was a bee that ended up showing up amen, yes, amen oh my gosh, so much goodness. So what is? What is an area that you feel, the Lord? Obviously you have really been stretched this last year, but I but is there anything you feel, I just wonder, even more stretching in relation to this boot camp? That it seems like something that, oh my gosh, so many men, young boys around the world could utilize.

Speaker 1: 52:40

I know I am asking god about it, I know.

Speaker 2: 52:45

I know.

Speaker 1: 52:48

I am asking.

Speaker 2: 52:49

God, what do you want to do? Yes, I know.

Speaker 1: 52:51

Yeah.

Speaker 2: 52:55

So I'm just waiting on what he wants done. Does he want a girl version, like a Deborah Esther version? I don't know. I am meeting with one of the pastors who started our church she's about 80 or something and she did a female version not the same sort of thing, but something similar. So I am seeing her on a Tuesday morning starting next term.

Speaker 2: 53:26

So I don't know what God's got planned, kristen, but I'm sure he didn't go to all this effort for it not to be multiplied somehow. So maybe down the track it'll have to be all put into a manual or videoed or something. But I know there are so many keys in there to you know, unlock this next generation to hear from God themselves, because this is what I feel is. There's no gone are the days where we ask somebody else to tell us what God thinks. You have a direct access to heaven, to the throne of God, and it's on us to each have our ears open to receive instructions that are just for us.

Speaker 2: 54:24

And that's what I was trying to get the boys to see is to see God, to hear God and to know that he has specific things that he wants to say to you, very, very detailed instructions that he wants to give you about your life and getting them to realise that the spirit realm is so much more real and so much more important than anything else that's going on around them. Because that generation is just so bombarded with the world and the culture and the doctrines of demons and all of the agendas that are at play, and that's why they need an encounter with the power of the Holy Spirit. They are not a generation who is going to put up with talk, talk about God, talk. No, it needs to be real. They need an encounter with god and that is what, um, I feel god is saying is that they are marked for signs, wonders and miracles. They are the standard he's raising up and, yes, they are marked for encounter yes, you know, I was thinking.

Speaker 1: 55:56

I remember I think I put a word out about marked. I think that was around the same.

Speaker 1: 56:03

I think you did. Yeah, wait a second. I think that was around the same. I think you did, yeah, wait a second. I think that might've been around the same time that we met. And, um, tell me a little bit more about eagles for you, because eagles are just so significant for me. Um, in my walk and I see them almost daily and people are like why do you see them all the time and how do you see them? And I would love to hear just for you, like how did that name come to be Eagles View Collective? How are eagles like significant in your life? Because, like I said, we have so many amazing similarities from across many miles, like we'll see the sky very similarly, even though we're like I'm curious if the sky will be like it is here today.

Speaker 2: 56:49

it's been glorious oh well, it's the eagle's thing. I'm trying to remember back, but I feel like I saw like a bit of an open vision of like the imagine your hands coming together and then crossing over of your thumbs and it makes like a bird wing each side. And then I saw a different thing of a hand coming down, so like five fingers coming down to make a fist and then the fist went on fire, coming down to make a fist and then the fist went on fire. And God just said to me that there is power in multiplication and being in alignment with people who are of the same you know, cut from the same cloth, pretty much so like your fingers, those two wings came down and like into a fist, into strength, and just they, just like the fist, just set alight in front of me. Do you know what I mean? And so that just got me on this thing of eagles, birds, and then I couldn't stop.

Speaker 2: 58:04

We don't really have hardly any eagles here, like we have a sea eagle that's out on the beach maybe, and one other type of wedge tail eagle, but not like you guys like. So for you your eagle is like a more of an American symbol. Not so much for us. But it did get get me thinking about different things, like god gave me a word, like about leaving the nest and there was a lot of theme around um eagles and obviously, looking into them, they have those characteristics about um. They go up with like a crow's, the only one that attacks them and then they go. All they have to do is just keep going up, up, up, and those other birds can't fly at that altitude. Same with the snakes. They take them up and then they're out of their comfort zone. There's so many different. You know, just actual facts about eagles which are amazing that you can learn from.

Speaker 2: 59:07

But recently we have this bird called the sulfur-crested cockatoo, which is a white bird with a yellow crown, and I asked a prophetic artist to draw a picture of it and I've put it on my page. Draw a picture of it and I've put it on my page, but I feel like that is a bit like our version of the eagle and it's when I asked this person to do the prophetic painting, she originally had it with the yellow little crest, sitting back and the mouth shut, but interestingly, the Holy Spirit asked her to redo the painting with the mouth open and with the crest, sort of fully up like a crown and and seated a bit forward. And then she has she I posted it on my page for you to have a look at, but this is just part of that bird theme. But this is what she has said is it's the Aussie prophets? It's a call for the Aussie prophets to don their crown of glory and open their mouths.

Speaker 2: 1:00:18

A cockatoo possesses a powerful screech that is very distinctive and well-known across the land. The Aussie prophets open their mouth. Their powerful words will echo across the mountains, the plains and the valleys. The crown is held high to show my glory and kingship. Their words will be heard across the land as they declare war on the enemy. It is a battle cry from the heights of the spirit that will rattle the enemy's camp, bring revelation to my children and cause those who do not yet believe to look up and know where it has come from. And you can see that cockatoo that she's painted on my page. That cockatoo that she's painted on my page. But that is our version of the eagle and it's purity of white, with this very bright yellow crown, and they have a very distinctive screech. You can Google it, but it is like and they don't stop. They just keep going, and it's interesting that there's so many bird things, but God speaks through nature.

Speaker 1: 1:01:32

Absolutely. Wow, oh my gosh.

Speaker 2: 1:01:36

So I have copied that and given that to some of my prophetic friends, and with that interpretation, because I do feel God is raising up voices in this nation and the main reason I did my page I think it says on there is to unite the prophetic voices so that there is that, you know, sound coming together. It's a collective sound and these birds also usually fly around with about 20 of them. They're never really by themselves, they screech around together. Oh, next time they come and fly over my house, I'll post another picture on my story, or you might have even seen it. There'll be like 20 of these white birds in my front yard.

Speaker 1: 1:02:22

So is that the bird that you're finding the feathers with?

Speaker 2: 1:02:26

Yeah, yeah, there was all these white feathers down the front yard from those birds, yeah, and it's just talking about and I think, because they're white as well, it's just confirming that purity of heart. And then the yellow crown, like the glory, they just really are like a prophetic symbol, probably like your, your eagle, like it's a similar type of thing and I'm I'm just always fascinated with wings.

Speaker 1: 1:02:56

Um, my business name is new wings coaching. I asked him seven years ago okay, lord, what is? And probably for you with your business, like. You ask him like, what am I creating, what am I doing and what is the name of the business? And I heard new wings coaching and I thought that's interesting. Um, and it initially was the butterfly back in 2017. That was really, um, I would say a great um like the transformation.

Speaker 1: 1:03:30

And then it's like he's been showing me. I think it was around. Yeah, it was. 2019 was when I actually saw the first Eagle ever, like wow, I hadn't seen any Eagles outside of the zoo. Um, I was on a walk and I was just really contending for something and I got to the end of the path and there was a building at the top of this, like five story building. There was an eagle on the very edge and I sat on a bench, like literally for an hour. We were just staring at each other and I just it was incredible. And ever since 2019 so it's been about five years every year it's like the, the magnitude of. I used to see single eagles, like once in a while, and now it's like pairs, like four, yes, eight, and he's always many something.

Speaker 2: 1:04:24

It's like what are you trying to say, god? That's why you're always saying I know you're trying to say something. What are you trying to say? And there is power in the the tribe, isn't there being aligned with similar minds, similar hearts? Seeing, you know, seeing things together and it's confirming you know. That that's what's so lovely. I love how God confirms things.

Speaker 1: 1:04:51

Absolutely and to be able to have, you know, a collective. I love that word, it's one of my favorite words when it comes to like community. When you get together with people, yes, we can sit in our own home and we can talk to ourselves, right. But when you have conversations with somebody, you you know, like if you're with fellow, like code crackers, um, people who are also prophetic, like we hear things for each other and it becomes this beautiful again. Going back to the unlocking, to help you know, soar we, we soar together.

Speaker 1: 1:05:29

It's this totally. There's an ease that comes about when you have people in your life that that that get it that was the other thing.

Speaker 2: 1:05:37

Eagles use the storms, kristin, to fly higher. They use they go above that turbulence and it gives them wind power to go higher. They like they get strength from the storms. They're not scared of the storms like most other birds. That was another thing I learned.

Speaker 1: 1:05:56

Yes, have you read um soaring as eagles by life?

Speaker 2: 1:06:00

hetland no, no really good.

Speaker 1: 1:06:04

if anybody out there also loves eagles, I I'd highly recommend that book. Um well, I am so thankful for what you've shared here today. I would love to have you back on again. I'm sure there's more we can talk about there's always more.

Speaker 1: 1:06:20

Um, if you just had you know, I know that you, um, obviously you hear from him and he might have something that he'd want to say to the one I do this podcast for, the one. Um, I always believe that there's one woman who's listening to this that needed to hear what you are sharing here today. Is there anything you would want to impart over her today? And then would you just be open to praying us out?

Speaker 2: 1:06:49

yeah, I was about to say how about I, um, yeah, pray. The one thing, um, probably right now is like preparing for what you're praying for, and I feel like that comes. It's part of that trust walk. Is you expect that what you are praying for, whatever you are going through right now, by faith, you are preparing for it to be answered and it's just part of that trustful position that God wants us in. And I would just encourage you to continue to declare what God's word says for one, but then also just be expectant and thankful that he is about to move suddenly and flip the tables in your favour, because I fully believe that God's children are meant to prosper, to rule and to reign in this world in a counter-cultural, cultural way, and he will provide, he will protect, he will revive, he will restore, he will renew. He is the faithful God to his promises, faithful to do what he said he was going to do. And we get that easier position to just trust like a childlike faith. So that would be something I would just encourage whoever it is that's listening you engage your faith and you decree and declare that his will and his plans for your life are being established. You may not see it right now, but they are being established, aligned and orchestrated all in the background, and that is because you are going to succeed and you are going to give God the glory in it and through it. So that would be what I would leave the listeners with, and then I would just love to pray. Whoever is listening to the sound of my voice right now, holy Spirit, whoever is listening right now, we would just ask that you would just clothe them with this power from on high that I have spoken about today, this supernatural equipping. Lord. We ask that you would begin to unlock spiritual eyes, to unlock deaf ears, lord, that your spirit would just begin to reveal and release your plans, your assignments, your blueprint, prince, father, god, that they would be released over every woman listening, father, god, that you would increase their spiritual awareness, lord, that they would just get a sense of the power and the presence and the glory that is upon their life. Lord, that you would begin to increase their boldness.

Speaker 2: 1:10:33

We just speak boldness. We speak that supernatural infusing of inner strength, lord, that comes from and through you, to speak words that will set the captives free, both spiritual and physical. Lord, we know you are calling forth your Joshua and Caleb's in this hour, lord, to stand against the spirit of this age. And we just say raise them up, father God, age. And we just say raise them up, father God, raise them into your warring remnant. Lord, in the mighty name of Jesus, come and fill your people with power from on high. We just release a spiritual infusing of strength over your warriors.

Speaker 2: 1:11:25

Right now, lord, to stand immovable on the solid rock, father God, and we just give you the glory, we give you the honour and the praise that is due to your magnificent name, father God, and we just say establish your kingdom in the earth. Father, release your spirit. Pour out your spirit in greater measure on your people. Father God, be released, let your glory wave be released throughout this earth. Father, we call it forth, we stand with you and we declare it that this generation is marked for signs, wonders and miracles.

Speaker 2: 1:12:15

And just like it says in Isaiah 40, lord, that there is going to be a preparation to prepare the way of the Lord, and we prepare our hearts, we prepare our minds for what we are doing, lord, in this hour that you are raising up those valleys and you are bringing low those mountains, so that the glory of the Lord will be seen by all the people together at the table of encounter. Lord, we just speak divine interruptions. We speak prodigals to come running. Father God returning, just like that scripture that says the hearts of the fathers will turn to the children and the children of the fathers will turn to the children and the children to the fathers. We just say mark your people, father God, with provision and protection. In the mighty name of Jesus. We thank you that you are moving and you are the King of kings and the Lord of lords In Jesus' name. Amen, king of kings and the lord of lords in jesus name, amen wow, I need to lay down.

Speaker 1: 1:13:40

Wow, thank you, lord. Thank you for anna. Thank you for the ways that you have created her and she is. She is marked, she is a fire carrier and we're thankful for the ways that she is a general in this worldwide army, thank you, thank you for sharing my friend.

Esther everyone right, noah, we're building art great yeah I feel like we could talk forever, but I'll have you back at such a time as this and God is raising his standard. I know he is Amen and, yeah, he is moving. He really is moving. I've seen so many people healed, set free, delivered for his glory. You know so that then they can be the ones doing that. You know, it's like a ripple effect.

Speaker 1: 1:14:49

People Listen, listen to him and go. Like he showed me last year, it not ready, set go. It's set ready, so go, yep it's up and go season.
