Swing Wide the Gates- It's all about the Family!

I see where an army of one is forming. Alliances among family members are increasing. I see individual family members coming together to form one force, they move as one, speak as one all in the name of Jesus. Because of their unity and agreement in Christ, they hold much authority in the heavenly realm, the healing realm and the prophetic realm and they are bringing heaven onto the earth!
I hear the Father say,
"I am raising up the Family, says the Father, where one can put a thousand to flight a family of four will put more than 100,000 to flight. The family will become a force to be reckoned with against the adversary- as you stand as one, pray as one, agree as one, you will move mountains. There have been those who haven't had a family to call there own, but I am establishing them at this hour in a family that will lead them out with singing. Many have been captured and unexpectedly placed either alone or with people they wouldn't normally choose to be near. Locate me in the middle of it all, Beloved and you will see my hand move on your behalf and on their behalf.
In one accord, with one voice infiltrate the enemy threats with the sound of praise! Praise me and Pray, that is the way. Even over the airwaves, especially over the airwaves praise me. Don't let the adversary use intimidation and talk you out of making a sound- sound waves of a single force are pushing back enemy lines and now it will be heard through families. I am releasing unity of sound like a sonic boom among families. On the front porch, in the back yard, at the dinner table- BOOM!
Every single member has a sound, a sight, a song to offer. This is how I build, with many hands, not a single set of hands, says the Father. Open up the opportunity for each family member to express the gift I am awakening within them, practice prophecying at the dinner table, practice giving in the living room, practice painting wherever paint can be poured. Give me an art show within the domain of your home and see if I don't open the heavens and publish your creation there. Beloved, I long for your worship. Angels gather in your home waiting to hear My name, waiting to dance with you, paint with you, color the kingdom with you. Waiting expectantly to see how you will worship Me, says the Father. Let the sound of praise overtake the cells of fear.
You need not be perfect, only praise me. Praise is perfected in the innocent raw worship cries from a baby, how much more when you praise me," says the Father.
I see where worship, the actual cells of sound, overtake the virus cells and the fear and the depression cannot multiply. I see Praise as an audible antidote and that praise of the one true God does not have to only be sound, it can be color, visions, words of praise read out loud. I see that someone will have an online coffee house and will have poetry readings that praise God! I see TikTok having mini praise reports- instead of news reports there will be praise reports! This is a family movement that will generate LIFE! God is taking back everything that the enemy has stolen and giving it back in huge piles of abundance-
"Surprises and favor are yours," says the Father. "When you dote on me, I am going to dote on you! I am going to spoil the plots of the enemy by spoiling my children. For those who call me Papa, will receive an early inheritance manifested in this earth like never before. I love my children. Come now, this is our time! I enjoy you, enjoy each other and dare to laugh in the mess of it all. Leave the dishes in the sink, grab the soup spoons and let's make us some music," says the Father! "Your adversary won't be able to stand it when you praise Me instead of following his lead of quiet fear! Make a joyful NOISE! Celebrate your life- you are alive now! This isn't the time like when the Sadducees and Pharisees came out of the temple to silence the parade that was being held in my honor- they didn't even recognize me. You KNOW ME, says the Father. It is time to break up the fallow groud of somber and fear and celebrate instead- the Greater One is within you NOW! I am not coming in on a donkey like before, I am entering this earth through you- you are the gate now, my precious lambs. So lift your heads in PRAISE!
Psalm 24:7-10 The Passion Translation (TPT)
7 So wake up, you living gateways! Lift up your heads, you ageless doors of destiny! Welcome the King of Glory, for he is about to come through you. 8 You ask, “Who is this Glory-King?” The Lord, armed and ready for battle, the Mighty One, invincible in every way! 9 So wake up, you living gateways, and rejoice![a] Fling wide, you ageless doors of destiny! Here he comes; the King of Glory is ready to come in. 10 You ask, “Who is this King of Glory?” He is the Lord of Victory, armed and ready for battle, the Mighty One, the invincible commander of heaven’s hosts! Yes, he is the King of Glory! Pause in his presence
