The Season of Wide-Open Spaces – Your Journey of Faith
By
Mari Anne Andersen
August 2025
There comes a time in every believer’s journey when the atmosphere shifts, when a wind of change takes place, and when the Spirit begins to blow in a new direction. My friends, I believe there is a Heavenly perspective change in our atmosphere, culture, and in our daily kingdom climate both personally and corporately.
I also believe there is a Kingdom-level of realignment taking shape and form in our midst, and I also believe God is giving us ALL new spiritual lenses to see, behold, and witness IF we choose to do so! He always gives us the dignity of choice IF we choose to put on these new lenses. That choice is ours!
That is the million-dollar question to YOU my friends, because God is inviting ALL to take steps beyond the familiar and into a season marked by faith. This is that season we are in NOW. It’s a time unlike the ones we have had before—a time of expansion, of stretching and of a deep awakening is being released especially since we are fast approaching the Hebraic New Year—5786 in September. More on that later!
Faith in this season is not passive. It will be alive, active, and fierce in the Spirit for it will reach beyond the limitations of our natural eyes and will stretch us into the WIDE-OPEN spaces that God has prepared. These are places where our feet have NOT yet trod or stepped on. It’s territories, regions, and lands that once seemed impossible until NOW. This is the realm of the miraculous where the God of wonders moves mountains and parts seas for those who dare to believe that the veil is lifting, and where your eyes are adjusting to Kingdom clarity—to view His limitless perspective anchored in His truth and in His promises.
Yes, He is breaking the lenses of fear, doubt, and logic and giving YOU a new vision to see what He sees for YOU. Hear me my friends, this is not just a change in view, but a Divine Reorientation and Redirection from mere survival to supernatural vision.
What you once called a barrier or a hindrance, God is now calling it a birthing place for your perspective is being purified and sanctified. You were never meant to live limited by what you can see; the supernatural realm is YOUR divine inheritance and YOUR divine right as sons and daughters of the Most High God.
As we press into this journey, something profound begins to happen. Strength rises not from the flesh but from the Spirit. It’s the kind of strength that sustains you when answers are slow and the wait is long. It’s the strength that quiets the noise and tunes your ear to the whisper and sound of Heaven that pours into our very soul. And in that strength His plan and purpose become clearer and clearer—sharpening the vision to see His glorious path and purpose.
Jesus meets us right here and right now! And friends, it’s not just in theory or concept but in a real encounter that becomes personal and intimate signed, sealed, and secured by His presence, His power, and His reality.
He is inviting YOU to His sacred surrender so that He can usher in His rest, His trust which will lead you to His best. When we let God take the lead a holy exchange happens, and we begin to walk in the best version of who we are in Him.
This is the hour to be activated—no more delays, no more postponements, and no more excuses for this is the hour and the time for Open Wide Spaces to see Your Spiritual Journey breakthrough moment, a revolution in spiritual understanding and a turning point of no return. For your faith is about to leap beyond logic and into the realms of divine outcomes. For the Spirit is stirring in this hour and He is longing for YOU to have divine hunger so that YOU can see His glorious glory cascading upon you and yours. Old ways will not carry you into new dimensions for what’s ahead requires a new rhythm, a new resolve, and a fresh release of His glory.
My friends, this is not a new chapter for you BUT a new era. He is calling you to Widen your stance, to strengthen your footing in His immovable truth of promises. He’s calling you to expand your perception so that YOU can see from God’s vantage point and see past your own natural limitations. For He is preparing YOU for a greater weight of glory; He is enlarging your capacity to carry and steward what’s coming.
This is the hour, the time and the moment for your faith to carry you into the Wide-Open Spaces of His Glory. To experience the freedom of fullness of living in the presence of God without restriction, limitation, or fear. It’s His realm of grace where your soul breathes, expands, and aligns with heaven’s rhythm. This is the place where glory replaces striving, where rest fuels movement, and were intimacy births authority. It truly is breaking out from small thinking, limited belief and self-protected living and stepping into heaven’s vastness here on earth.
Yes, Jesus is calling YOU to come and seek Him to fully, honestly, and humbly return to the places He has prepared for YOU. Recognize where you have grown complacent, where you’ve stood still, slipped backward, or chosen comfort over conviction. It is time to step out of the shadows and back into the light of His presence so that YOU can experience the Wide-Open Spaces of Your Journey of Faith.
Hear What the Father is Saying to YOU
I hear your heartbeats longing for more. I hear the rhythm of change beginning to stir and I see it awakening in you. Do you see it? Can you hear what My Spirit is speaking?
You are crossing into a new level of your walking, but before the increase, there must be a cleansing. There are closets of clutter, hidden sins, and little foxes roaming unchecked, subtle compromises that have shaped your habits and character.
Now is the time to cast My net and take every hidden thing captive, remove it, dismantle it and dislodge every unholy root. I have made the path clear for you to walk in righteousness, not just in appearance, but in truth and power. This is the path of kingdom living. I am sending My whirlwind of victory, My whirlwind of champions, and my whirlwind of glory. It will be a fresh wind that lifts, realigns, and re-establishes My promises personally and corporately.
Just as Joshua and the army encircled Jericho with unity and a shout, I am calling you to take new territory the same way, through corporate praise, prophetic sound and a holy boldness. Stand-up, Shout-up, and Sing-up and watch the hindrances fall, watch the collapse of strong-holds crumble.
This is your new beginning – this is your new era to return to the Throne Room as a son or daughter welcoming you into the heart of the King. Let this Throne Room be a place of daily dwelling and daily communing with your King of kings and Lord of lords. For this is a time for His glory coming upon you not to crush you but to crown you. Let His glory wrap around you like a robe of righteous that is yours. The King is here waiting for you. For I love YOU with an everlasting love forever and always and throughout all eternity.
Your Financial Gifts & Prayers Are Greatly Appreciated
As you know by now, Freedom House is, through faith, launching into new, wide-open spaces this fall, with debuting our own Schools come this September. There is such joy and anticipation as we already have students registering for Freedom House Sanctification & Transformation Training 201. We hope you will consider attending. Watch your email box for how to do that.
Most people take vacations in the summer, so giving to Freedom House naturally drops. However, folks never get vacations from trauma, shame, pre-birth wounds, inner vows, hearts of stone, and orphan mindsets. Therefore, our mission to come along side and minister continues.
Through your generous donation at this time, you can help those in spiritual need and also help me, and our staff, lay the complete groundwork for the new Freedom House School that will start in late September. You have always been such a faithful prayer supporter and financial donor, so thank you again for what you can do now to make a difference.
