The Year 2017
The year 2017 was a season of awakening, change, stripping off, uprooting, coming to terms, restoration, clarity, and dialing in.
This was accompanied by resistance, rebellion, anger, division, and a lot of pent-up emotions on a personal level up to the highest levels in the country, and the world.
In the year 2017, the Lord has began to stir up the pot. He has started a transition. This took place on a personal level, working its way from the inner to the outer circles: marriage, family, church, community, state, country, and the world.
The year 2017 marked a flooding of prophetic messages, more so for end-time prophecies. This created more awareness for people of God, and has stirred up a hunger to know Him and His plans.
The concept of healing and deliverance as part of salvation has also began to arise, more than ever. More people found themselves in situations where they were awakened to God's healing power. Broken people started coming to Him. Those who have fallen away found their way back and began a process of recovery. Those who were ahead of the process began to have more clarity, and became determined to keep themselves sanctified.
The word sanctification and holiness were reintroduced back to the church. It didn't come without resistance.

I will make America great again!
Just as the Lord has created a stirring up in His church, He has done the same in government and politics that has brought about so much resistance, and even division.
This resistance is necessary for refining; the division is a part of weeding out, and also a part of His bigger plan to establish His people.
The phrase 'I will make America great again' is a phrase that the President has been saying from the time he ran for office until now. Not even him understands the meaning of these words in relation to what God is doing.
The Lord is releasing these words in the atmosphere, using the highest position in the land to verbalize it.
"I will make America great again" is God's way of saying, "America belongs to Me and it has been desecrated. I am taking back what is Mine."
All the increase and favor that God is going to pour out in America is for His people and for His agenda. It is not only for now but for a future generation of rulers in the Millennial Kingdom.

Unity in the Body of Christ
Before Jesus died on the cross, He said his last prayer to His father. And one of these prayers is the unity of His people.
Before Jesus died on the cross, He said his last prayer to His father. And one of these prayers is the unity of His people.
that they may all be one, just as you, Father, are in me, and I in you, that they also may be in us, so that the world may believe that you have sent me. The glory that you have given me I have given to them, that they may be one even as we are one, I in them and you in me, that they may become perfectly one, so that the world may know that you sent me and loved them even as you loved me (John 17:21-23).
Jesus prayed for our unity, and He described it as the same unity that He and His Father have. This unity is what will confound the world. This unity is what will make them believe in Jesus.
We do not see this unity just yet. There have been attempts to accept everyone's belief, but this is not what Jesus wanted. He was specifically referring to our oneness in Him and the Father, not other gods but JESUS CHRIST.
For this unity to begin to take place, there has to be an INTERFACE. It is more than just a collaboration. It is a coming together of distinct gifts and characteristics, maintaining each one’s uniqueness, while forming a common boundary that each one shares. This boundary will serve as the connecting factor, more than the dividing factor. This boundary is the gap that the unique gift will have to fill in.
This unity through interface is what Ephesians 4 is referring to.

There is one body and one Spirit—just as you were called to the one hope that belongs to your call— one Lord, one faith, one baptism, one God and Father of all, who is over all and through all and in all (Ephesians 4:4-6).
There is only one God and His Name is Jesus Christ. This is the main focus of the unity. Any compromise is not going to work.
The focus shifts to "gifts" in the next verses, connecting it to unity, and showing the concept of interface.

But grace was given to each one of us according to the measure of Christ's gift (verse 7).
Jesus gave each one a unique gift, and He gave them the grace (ability to do things that they can't do on their own) to be able to operate fully in these gifts.
Therefore it says, “When he ascended on high he led a host of captives, and he gave gifts to men.” (In saying, “He ascended,” what does it mean but that he had also descended into the lower regions, the earth? He who descended is the one who also ascended far above all the heavens, that he might fill all things.) (verses 8-10)
These verses above are very crucial. This is what the Lord has began to do in the year 2017.
In John 12:24 Jesus said: Truly, truly, I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it bears much fruit.
Jesus descended into the lower regions, ascended on high, and gave gifts to men.
In the year 2017, Jesus brought a lot of His people through a healing and purging process, making sure that their gifts that were corrupted and contaminated by the world were killed.

The Year 2018: Maturity and Perfection of the Saints
The year 2018 is the beginning of these "renewed" and "resurrected" gifts, to be used for the unity of the Body of Christ, and for the interface that is going to take place.
The year 2018 is the beginning of these "renewed" and "resurrected" gifts, to be used for the unity of the Body of Christ, and for the interface that is going to take place.
And he gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the shepherds and teachers ... (Ephesians 4:11)
These resurrected gifts are to be used "to equip the saints for the work of ministry, for building up the body of Christ, until we all attain to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to mature manhood, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ (Ephesians 4:12-13)."
These resurrected gifts will begin amongst those who have truly surrendered themselves to Jesus, and those who have gone through a process of purging. They will be the leaders of this new era. Because of what has transpired in them, they will begin to see the unique gifts of others. They will see the gaps to be filled in, and will know where to position the gift of each one who comes their way. Because their own gifts are not corrupted by the world anymore, they will not take control over other people's uniqueness. They will be able to utilize these gifts without conforming it to their ways or their ministry's ways.
People around them will automatically flow as they lead them to flourish in their unique gifts. They will feel valued and honored, and therefore become effective in their calling. It will cause a ripple effect. Instead of them feeling that they are being changed and molded into a church or ministry culture, they will feel that they are being helped to find their own niche.
There will be one culture, and that culture is the JESUS culture. There will be one definition of a true believer, and that is someone who is "like Jesus".

For in Christ the fullness of the Deity lives in bodily form (Colossians 2:9).
The year 2018 is going to be the beginning of the process of perfection of the saints. This perfection will begin in the individual who is truly serious about Jesus. There will be an interface within him, as he understands more clearly that his DNA has the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. As this interface takes place, he will flow naturally in his gifts, as he shifts from one role to the next. This will extend to everywhere he goes and everywhere the Father sends him, as he is led by the Spirit of God, in the name of Jesus. Each individual will naturally interface with each other, as led by the leaders of this era. It is going to create a smooth flow of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit in the body of Christ.
The year 2018 marks the beginning of a new era, an era of establishing God's chosen people for the coming Millennial Reign.
