DMSO Transforms the Treatment of Infectious Diseases

 This article from Mercola.com contributed by A Midwestern Doctor, seems important information to have:

DMSO is a remarkably safe and naturally occurring substance (provided you use it correctly¹) that rapidly improves a variety of conditions medicine struggles with — particularly chronic pain. For reference, those conditions included:

Strokes, paralysis, a wide range of neurological disorders (e.g., Down Syndrome and dementia), and many circulatory disorders (e.g., Raynaud’s, varicose veins, hemorrhoids), which I discussed here.

A wide range of tissue injuries such as sprains, concussions, burns, surgical incisions, and spinal cord injuries (discussed here).

Chronic pain (e.g., from a bad disc, bursitis, arthritis, or complex regional pain syndrome), which I discussed here.

A wide range of autoimmune, protein, and contractile disorders such as scleroderma, amyloidosis, and interstitial cystitis (discussed here).

A variety of head conditions, such as tinnitus, vision loss, dental problems, and sinusitis (discussed here).

A wide range of internal organ diseases such as pancreatitis, infertility, liver cirrhosis, and endometriosis (discussed here).

A wide range of skin conditions such as burns, varicose veins, acne, hair loss, ulcers, skin cancer, and many autoimmune dermatologic diseases (discussed here).

In turn, since I started this series, it struck a cord and I have received over 1400 reports of remarkable responses to DMSO many readers have had (compiled here).

This begs an obvious question — if a substance capable of doing all of that exists, why does almost no one know about it? Simply put, like many other promising therapies, it fell victim to a pernicious campaign by the FDA which kept it away from America despite decades of scientific research, Congressional protest, and thousands of people pleading for the FDA to reconsider its actions. Consider for example, this 60 Minutes program about DMSO that aired on March 23, 1980:

DMSO and Infectious Diseases

DMSO has a variety of unique therapeutic properties. Some of those make it incredibly well-suited to addressing microbial infections. For example:

• While nontoxic, it has an antiseptic effect that is harmful to microorganisms, especially the smallest ones. This property appears to be the most beneficial for herpes, shingles, and complex conditions with a microbiological component.

• It can remove the antibiotic resistance of bacteria. This is particularly helpful in widespread problematic infections that have gradually developed a resistance to many existing antibiotics

(e.g., tuberculosis) and challenging infections that are not responding to antibiotics (e.g., ones that would otherwise require an amputation).

• It can deliver antimicrobial agents to areas that are typically difficult to reach (e.g., deep in a bone) and also directly to regions that would otherwise require a systemic application of the medication.

• It can increase circulation to many parts of the body, something which is often critical for resolving illnesses (as a healthy blood supply allows the immune system to enter and heal diseased areas). Likewise, pretreatment with DMSO has been shown to increase the immune system’s ability to resist a subsequent infection.

• Much in the same way DMSO protects cells from a wide variety of lethal stressors,² it can also protect them from the harmful effects of bacterial toxins and can mitigate the toxicity of antimicrobial agents taken for a prolonged period.

In short, DMSO can transform the management of infectious diseases.

Shingles and Herpes

Since many people struggle with Herpes (HSV-1 or HSV-2) and Shingles (Herpes Zoster), especially the pain which follows shingles (known as post-herpetic neuralgia or PHN), DMSO has been extensively studied for these uses. In turn, DMSO was found to significantly improve those conditions (and canker sores³), particularly when combined with idoxuridine (IDU), an antiviral that has poor penetration into tissues (and hence does not work alone).

• Herpes simplex

◦ A 1965 study⁴ used 1% IDU in 90% DMSO (and 10% distilled water) in 7 patients with severe cutaneous infections and noted significant improvement in all herpes cases, with the only side effect being slight skin irritation from the solution.

◦ A 1966 RCT⁵ (randomized controlled trial) of 21 patients with recurrent herpes found DMSO halved the durations of outbreaks, and when given with 5% idoxuridine, cut it to a third (with similar results also found in a 1967 study⁶).

◦ A 1983 study⁷ found that DMSO effectively brought acyclovir (ACV) into the skin, caused a moderate reduction in herpes lesions, and dramatically reduced them when combined with acyclovir.

◦ A 1990 RCT⁸ gave 80% DMSO mixed with 15% IDU to 301 immunocompetent female patients. The duration of pain was reduced by 2.6 days and the healing time to normal skin by 2.3 days.

◦ A 2002 cell study⁹ found 0.65% DMSO reduced herpes viral replication by 50%.

Note: DMSO also helps herpes fever blisters, and DMSO with IDU has been reported to be effective in treating HSV whitlow (herpes on the fingers).¹⁰

• Shingles and Post Herpetic Neuralgia (PHN)

◦ In 1967, a German investigator reported DMSO yielded generally good results in 10 of 11 shingles and PHN cases¹¹(with similar results being found in another 1967 study¹²).

◦ Two 1970 RCTs showed that IDU in DMSO was at reducing the duration of pain and healing in shingles.¹³ The patients were delighted, for the pain disappeared within a median of two days.

◦ In 1971, Dr. William Campbell Douglass conducted a study of 41 patients with shingles and PHN of whom 73.3% had a good response to DMSO and 13.3% had a fair response.

◦ A 1974 RCT¹⁴ of 118 shingles patients and a 1992 RCT¹⁵ of 171 shingles patients found DMSO and IDU significantly shortened the vesicular phase, healing time, and duration of pain, and it significantly improved post-herpetic neuralgia.

◦ A 1981 trial of 46 shingles patients also confirmed the benefit of DMSO and IDU.¹⁶

DMSO and Bacterial Infections

DMSO has five key properties that make it effective in treating bacterial infections:

1. Increased bacterial membrane permeability — DMSO enhances bacterial membrane permeability,¹⁷ making bacteria more vulnerable to antibiotics, especially those targeting internal structures (e.g., penicillin). This is crucial for treating infections like tuberculosis, which has a tough outer barrier.

2. Direct bacterial breakdown — DMSO can dissolve bacteria, causing their contents to leak out and effectively neutralizing them.

3. Disruption of bacterial function — DMSO interferes with bacterial metabolism by blocking the production of essential membrane proteins, as shown in studies with E. coli.¹⁸

4. Improved circulation — DMSO enhances blood flow,¹⁹ which helps combat chronic infections often caused by impaired circulation.

5. Protection against bacterial toxins — DMSO mitigates the harmful effects of bacterial toxins, protecting cells from stress.

DMSO also enhances the immune response,²⁰ contrary to concerns about immune suppression, and has been shown to increase resistance to infections like typhus.²¹

Common Microbes

DMSO has been extensively tested against common infectious bacteria (e.g., staph, strep, E. coli, pseudomonas), both by itself and in combination with antimicrobial therapies.

After a 1964²² study showed DMSO inhibited the growth of bacteria, a 1967 study tested it against various microorganisms, and found at sufficient concentrations that DMSO caused those organisms to dissolve into a sediment.²³

A 1969 study²⁴ found that 75% DMSO was bactericidal (mainly by causing their internal contents to leak out), while 15% was sufficient to stop bacterial growth.

DMSO and Head Infections

Since DMSO is effective in eliminating many common microbial infections, it has shown great promise in ENT (ears, nose, and throat) medicine, as many of those diseases result from infections with common bacteria and the inflammatory response to them (particularly since it is often challenging to get antibiotics to the site of the infection).

Much of this was demonstrated in the 1967 publication²⁵ by an ENT doctor who observed that DMSO would often significantly calm inflammation from an infection in the head (including severe ones that were difficult to treat with antibiotics). He compiled all of his cases²⁶ here:

• Eye infections — DMSO can treat various eye conditions, including macular degeneration and eyelid inflammation. In a 1976 study,²⁷ it was combined with antibiotics to successfully treat eye infections. Additionally, DMSO can resolve pink eye after just a few applications.²⁸

• Sinusitis — DMSO helps open blocked nostrils quickly by reducing swelling and promoting tissue healing.²⁹ Studies have shown DMSO significantly alleviates sinusitis symptoms, including one 1967 study³⁰ where most patients had excellent results. It also enhances the effectiveness of antibiotics in treating rhinoscleroma,³¹ a rare nasal infection.

• Dentistry — DMSO is used in dentistry as a mouthwash, relieving gum pain³² and preventing bleeding. It can alleviate toothache pain and reduce swelling after dental procedures.³³ Dentists have found it effective for treating infections and saving loose teeth from periodontitis.³⁴ Many studies³⁵ show DMSO helps improve gum health, treat pulpitis,³⁶ and accelerate healing after tooth extractions.³⁷

Tuberculosis

Despite over a century of work, Tuberculosis remains the world's most deadly microbe (e.g., in 2023, it was estimated³⁸to have killed 1.25 million people). This is mainly due to this tiny bacteria’s unique characteristics and high aptitude for developing antibiotic resistance.

Because of this, once the early DMSO researchers realized that DMSO could remove antibiotic resistance, their focus immediately went to tuberculosis. In turn, many lab studies³⁹ have demonstrated DMSO’s utility for this challenging infection which has been corroborated in humans:

• A 1969 study⁴⁰ of 32, 14 showed an absence of tuberculosis secretion and most showed improvement (e.g., reduced endobronchitis, perifocal infiltration and lung tissue destruction).

• A 1980 study⁴¹ used DMSO to treat children with pulmonary tuberculosis.

• A 1991 study⁴² found nebulized DMSO mixed with rifampin over 1 to 2 months was an effective treatment for 148 pulmonary tuberculosis and 18 obstructive bronchitis patients (e.g., it healed the destructive cavities caused by tuberculosis).

Bacterial Toxins

One of the primary reasons bacterial infections sicken and kill is because of the toxins they release. DMSO in turn, has been repeatedly shown to mitigate this. For example:

• DMSO has been shown⁴³ to protect the duodenum from H. pylori induced chronic ulcers.

• In rats, DMSO was shown⁴⁴ to create a dose dependent reduction in the fluid secretion and mucosal permeability triggered by C. difficile’s toxin (with its maximum inhibition occurring at a 1% concentration). Given how common C. difficile colitis is, this application of DMSO has great promise.

• DMSO was shown to protect cells⁴⁵ from the shigella bacteria’s toxin⁴⁶ (which causes severe diarrhea and bloody stools).

• Endotoxaemia occurs in response to bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) entering the bloodstream. A 2008 study of 18 horses⁴⁷ found DMSO reduced the fevers that followed artificially induced endotoxemia, suggesting DMSO’s utility in treating sepsis, particularly since, DMSO can protect cells⁴⁸ from the damage LPS causes.

Note: One of the most important characteristics the early adopters of ultraviolet blood irradiation recognized about it was that UVBI could effectively neutralize toxins in the bloodstream (a property that saved a significant number of lives).

Challenging Infections

DMSO has shown promise for many other challenging infections:

Sepsis — DMSO has proven effective in treating septic complications, especially in heart attack survivors. A 1982 study49 showed its success even against antibiotic-resistant bacteria. In 1984 a Russian study50 confirmed DMSO accelerated recovery in critically ill septic patients, with one case of bladder infection improving after using DMSO. Note: One author cited51 a case of a septic patient with a severe bladder infection who did not respond to antibiotics but recovered once he began taking one teaspoon of DMSO three times a day.

Lung infections — DMSO has treated chronic lung infections, with a 1975 study52 showing rapid recovery in infants with severe respiratory diseases when combined with antibiotics. A 2020 study53 reported that DMSO, combined with ceftriaxone, helped 31 lung abscess patients fully recover without recurrence. Note: DMSO has also been repeatedly shown54 to effectively treat acute respiratory distress syndrome, a challenging lung condition that frequently follows severe infections and often requires ventilation.

Abdominal infections — DMSO, combined with antibiotics, has effectively treated peritonitis55 and abdominal abscesses.56 It helps concentrate antibiotics in the abdomen,57 providing extended treatment duration, especially for peritonitis, a fatal condition.

Meningitis A 1978 study58 found DMSO was an effective treatment for meningococcal infections. A 1987 study59 used DMSO combined with a nuclease to treat meningitis or meningoencephalitis caused by an acute viral respiratory infection.

Osteomyelitis — DMSO has shown significant results in treating bone infections.60 Studies have found that combining DMSO with antibiotics and other therapies like hyperbaric oxygen speeds up recovery and reduces bone damage in both acute and chronic osteomyelitis.61,62,63,64,65,66

Orchitis and epididymitis — In 1986, a Russian physician reported these conditions have an excellent response to DMSO.67

Cancer and autoimmunity — DMSO has been observed to eliminate the unusual bacteria associated with many cancers and autoimmune diseases, which may in part explain its utility for those conditions. Note: A wealth of evidence also supports DMSO’s use in a variety of challenging veterinary infections.68

Surgery

Three of the major issues encountered in surgery are:

• Surgical wounds (or burns) become infected before they seal and heal.
• Infections deep within the body need to be cut open so the infection can be drained or removed (or have antibiotics directly applied to it).
• Infected tissues must be removed (e.g., amputated) because the infection within them can’t be reached or addressed.

Fortunately, DMSO’s is uniquely suited to address each of these. For example, in this article, I discussed how many studies and reader testimonials show DMSO is a remarkable therapy for burns and wound healing, and here I reviewed the wealth of evidence that DMSO is a highly effective therapy for surgical scar healing.

Likewise, DMSO makes reaching a deep infection within the body possible without surgery. Numerous studies, in turn, demonstrate that DMSO can prevent and treat those infections:

A 1969 case report69 highlighted a patient with a chronic fungal infection (that has high resistance to antifungals) who declined amputation in favor of antifungals dissolved in DMSO which saved his foot. Note: There are many other cases of DMSO curing a chronic infection that had required amputation.70

A 1978 surgical study71 used DMSO in combination with antibiotics to treat inflammatory infiltrates.

A 1984 study72 used DMSO to treat surgical wound infections.

A 1985 study73 found that injecting DMSO after severe mechanical trauma reduces the risks of a subsequent infection, while a 1984 study74 found that DMSO plus antibiotics prevent open wounds in the hands from developing purulent infections.

A 1990 study75 of 33 patients with phlegmons (inflamed areas under the skin) throughout the body found that a dressing with DMSO and silver nitrate, when compared to those receiving standard treatments, reduced the time required to begin a surgical repair by 2 to 2.5 times.

In 1998, Russian physicians reported that they routinely apply DMSO to surgical wounds as it accelerates healing and provides general infection control.76

Fungal Infections

A 2013 study⁷⁷ used DMSO and antifungal agents on six different Candida species. It found 0.5% to 1% DMSO had an antifungal effect, but the inhibitory effect (with or without concurrent antifungals) varied significantly.

DMSO can also effectively bring antifungals to many parts of the body. DMSO for instance was shown⁷⁸ to significantly increase the amount of ketoconazole that enters the brain and can transport griseofulvin⁷⁹ through the skin (which in a 1974 study⁸⁰ was used to successfully treat ringworm). Additionally:

• A 1965 study⁸¹ found DMSO was an effective treatment for ringworm and athlete’s foot, especially when combined with an antifungal.
• A 1977 study⁸² found DMSO (in combination with lidase) was a highly effective treatment for actinomycosis of the face and neck.
• A 1997 study⁸³ found DMSO mixed with itraconazole treated fungal infections in horse corneas.

Parasites

There is also some data on how DMSO can treat parasites (e.g., 3% DMSO has been shown to significantly inhibit the growth of Trypanosoma cruzi,⁸⁴ which causes Chagas disease). However, its primary value is bringing an antiparasitic medication to the region of infection (as parasites can often burrow quite deep into the tissues).

For example, two different 1966 studies (this study⁸⁵ and this 25 person RCT⁸⁶) found that DMSO plus an antiparasitic (e.g., 2% topical thiabendazole in 90% DMSO) was an effective treatment for hookworm infections in the skin. DMSO can also be combined with antiparasitic medications to reach challenging parasitic infections deep within the body. For example, a 1984 case report⁸⁷ discussed DMSO treating a complex amoeba infection of the liver.

Conclusion

Many who’ve worked with DMSO believe it should be routinely utilized for severe infections, particularly those not responding to antibiotic therapy. Fortunately, we are in a unique moment where these forgotten sides of medicine finally have a chance to see the light of day.

Thus, I sincerely hope articles like these can begin to shift the medical system towards adopting a more sophisticated approach to infectious diseases that can help patients struggling with challenging infections.

Author's Note: This is an abridged version of a longer article that goes into greater detail on the points discussed here and provides guidance for personal DMSO use (e.g., dosing, therapeutic precautions and where to obtain it) along with other natural approaches we’ve also found help many of those conditions (e.g., herpes and shingles). That article can be read here.

Baking Soda for Colds & Flu

I decided to post this on my blog since there seems to be so much illness around right now--including my husband who won't follow my advice.  😣. 

I have been using baking soda whenever I begin to feel a little under the weather for the past couple of years.  I am impressed and have told many about it, most of whom laugh at me or discount it as an old wives' tale.  I say what can it hurt and what if it helps?  It has kept me from getting really sick every time I thought I was coming down with something so I thought there might be somebody out there who would want to try it. I am amazed at the number of people who will try drugs recommended by doctors that list many side effects, but won't try home remedies!

This formula was published on the back of the Arm & Hammer Baking Soda package in 1925.

Take 1/2 tsp. soda dissolved in a glass of water 6 times the first day,  4 times the second day, 2 times the third day and each morning thereafter until symptoms are gone.  

I've read that one of the reasons we get sick is because our body gets acidic.  Germs grow in an acidic environments so alkalinizing our bodies with baking soda may have the possibility of helping.  I would love to hear if you try this and it helps you.  Maybe if I get enough confirmations others will believe me and at least try it.😀

2025 Is An Acts 2 Year! ~ Nate Johnston ~

 This is such a good word from Nate Johnson for 2025 and I say AMEN to all of it!

December 21, 2024 2025 Is An Acts 2 Year!   ~ Nate Johnston ~ Nate & Christy ✅

Next year is going to be an Acts 2 Year because we’re going back to simplicity. We’re leaving behind the hustle and bustle of institutions and empires for the basics once again. We’re choosing the humble over the proud and lofty. We’re choosing the private over the public stage. We’re choosing connection over club mentality or even shallow community. We’re choosing fellowship over programs. We’re choosing true worship over performance. We’re choosing the nameless and faceless over celebrity Christianity. And we’re choosing the pure over the convoluted and tainted. This is going to be an Acts 2 year because God is rebuilding our definition of the church, and He’s rebuilding us in the process. We’re coming back to the true foundations of the church again. We’re coming back to the simplicity and power of the fivefold, where people are built up into who God has called them to be. We’re going to see the breakdown of man’s hierarchies and systems. We’re coming back to the simple foundation of people gathering not around a man, but around Jesus and the finished work of the cross. We’re coming back to signs, wonders, and miracles again. We’re coming back to daily salvations and the pursuit of souls instead of preaching to the choir.  We’re coming back to baptisms and lives being transformed, rescued from darkness and addiction. We’re coming back to being the hospital church again, instead of a museum or a palace. We’re coming back to what looks small and insignificant but carries immense weight in the spirit. We’re coming back to experiencing His face and His glory once again, instead of simply coming to a service to hear a cool cliché quote to take home. We’re leaving behind the goosebumps of man’s religion and trading them for true encounters and visitations with God. So, this next year, watch as God leads you in a new direction. Watch as your appetites begin to change. Watch as the Lord leads you away from systems and places that look good on the outside but have brought you into bondage. For many, this will mean breaking away from what you’ve been part of for years. It may mean relocation. Shifting. Migrating.  It may mean leaving behind compromises, false coverings, and shallow accountability in communities that resemble but are far from the Acts 2 church God has destined for you. It will mean stepping out of isolation to find the people God has for you. It will mean leaving behind dead works and performance to discover the fire of His Spirit and a fresh baptism that overhauls your life. And it will mean closing the door on Act 1 so that we, as the church, can step into Acts 2—a season of power and baptism in the Holy Spirit that empowers us to walk in the fullness of everything Jesus made available to us at the cross. It’s going to be a year of departing from the flesh and man’s pursuit of building Babel and stepping into a year of building what looks simple but reaps eternal fruit. It’s going to transform your family, marriages, and every area of your life as you realign with God’s purpose and His original blueprint for the church. Watch, friends, as we leave behind decades, even centuries, of dysfunction and as the Lord begins to build His house. This is why you have felt the discontent in the last few years that has grown inside you.  It’s the desire to go back to the original plan.  It’s the longing for true connection with God and His people.  And build something pure and not of man’s hands.  If this is you, pray this dangerous prayer with me “Lord do Acts 2 in my life in 2025 onwards in Jesus' name! And lead me to my Acts 2 people!” “They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer. Everyone was filled with awe at the many wonders and signs performed by the apostles. All the believers were together and had everything in common. They sold property and possessions to give to anyone who had need. Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts, praising God and enjoying the favor of all the people. And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved” Acts 2:42-47 Nate Johnston Nate & Christy

'Listen Closely, I Am Releasing Clarity for 2025' ~Lana Vawser~ Lana Vawser Ministries ✅

 

Such a busy time and so much happening I can't seem to make time for posting.  This was very meaningful and inspiring to me so thought I would share it with you.

November 27, 2024 'Listen Closely, I Am Releasing Clarity for 2025' ~Lana Vawser~ Lana Vawser Ministries ✅

Recently, I heard the Lord say, ‘Listen closely, I am releasing clarity for 2025.’ When the Lord spoke these words, the words, ‘Listen closely…’ were very highlighted to me, and I could feel the invitation from the heart of the Lord to draw deep in this time, in a posture of surrender, and not rush into 2025 because there were new things the Lord is going to bring forth. As I leaned in and listened to His heart, I heard: ‘My people, draw close, come low and move slow. For the following of MY assignments in 2025 will take you into some unexpected pathways. I say unto you, do not rush forward in filling and moving as you have, but I am calling you deeper into the place of making room to hear the direction for 2025. For there is great temptation to “plan as always has been” but I say unto you, can you hear the sound of the NEW springing forth in 2025? There are new things that I am going to bring forth, in and through your lives, in 2025, and I am calling you to come deeper in waiting upon Me for My direction for the coming year. ‘There will be many twists and turns in 2025 as I continue to lead you and guide you in all that I have for you; and I say unto you, come deeper into holding your year with an open hand. For there are many “finishings” that are happening now and there are many “new beginnings” that will come forth in 2025. Come close, lean in and listen to My heart and what I have planned for 2025. I say unto you that 2025, for many, will be a year of seeing assignments that I have been speaking to you about for many years and preparing you for, come to fruition in this year. I say unto you, that I am going to bring you into some full-circle assignments. I am going to bring you into some greater destiny assignments in 2025, that I have spoken to you from years ago, and as you step forward in obedience to where I am leading, it will move you into a whole new realm of moving with Me in realms you have not moved in before. ‘Be not quick to move ahead on the first things that I begin to release to you for 2025. For 2025 will be a year of deeper depths in Me and in many areas of your life, and there is much that I will unpack for you in revelation, clarity and insight for 2025. Do not rush ahead and fill your calendars with what has been familiar: but I am calling you into the place of listening and waiting upon Me for My direction, for there are NEW FRONTIERS that will be opened up to you in 2025.’ ‘I am bringing My people deeper into the place of intercession and governing with Me in 2025, and you must make room and allow Me to teach you, train you and move you where I need you to be in 2025. I say unto you, the RIVER is rising. The river is rising. MY RIVER is rising in 2025; and as you live low and stay low, in the place of surrender, humility and tenderness and sensitivity to My leading—not rushing ahead—you will go where My River flows. For there is great tension, that many will find, to trade the RIVER for RUSHING. I say unto you, in 2025 there will be an even greater need for you, My people, to be sensitive to My leading, to My direction and My divine leading, wherever My river is flowing. My River will refresh and restore souls (Psalm 23) in a deeper way in 2025. ‘As the River rises in 2025, I say unto you, that there will be a greater increase of the offloading. You will see a greater mobilization of My Church and My army in 2025. As you continue to wait on Me and My leading and move where I am moving, in the moving, there will be a greater offloading of things that have been completed; things that have held you down; things that have been from past seasons; and the call to embrace the new places, spaces and frontiers that I am leading you into, in greater ways. ‘My people, do not be afraid of the leadings of My Spirit leading you into 2025 and the stretching that will come with these leadings. For I am bringing you into a deeper place of dependence and trust in who I am and what I have planned for you, and a greater understanding and demonstration of “Not by might, nor by power, but by My Spirit” in 2025. Unfamiliar and uncomfortable does not mean it is not Me. I am the God who continues to call you higher and call you outside the boat, and I have new lands for you to plough, new places for you to stand and new heights for you to occupy. Do not be dismayed by the battle for the high places in 2025 but know that I am leading you deeper into the place of governing with Me in prayer: and as you follow the leading of My Spirit and My strategy in intercession and obedience, you shall occupy in a greater way in 2025. ‘For there will be much shaking that will take place in 2025 and as you stay low before Me in the place of intimacy and humility in 2025, you will find a strength, grace and empowerment in Me in 2025 that you have not known. You will find as you stay close to Me and deep in My Word in 2025, a stability of being grounded and founded in Me to not be shaken, in ways you have not experienced before. There will be unexpected empowerment for the unexpected places in 2025, and a grace to stand and stand in boldness like you have not experienced before in 2025. ‘For I say unto you, that I am raising up the STORM CHASERS. Where storms have come and intimidated many of My people and they have RUN FROM the storm, I am raising up a people in 2025 that will run towards the storm in My authority and in My wisdom and speak “PEACE BE STILL”. And there will be a greater overcoming of storms that comes as My Bride arises in greater unprecedented revelation of their authority in Me. There is a BOLDNESS, that you have not seen before, to take Me at My Word and not move until what My Word says comes to pass in 2025. ‘The spirit of fear has come heavily against many of you in the past few months, because the enemy knows that I am raising up a people of BOLDNESS like never before that will see many storms chased away and overcome IN MY NAME as they stand in a new level of boldness in Me as they continue to see Me and who I am in deeper depths in the secret place. As many showdowns come forth in 2025, slow down and listen to My voice and what I am speaking and My strategies to pray and obey and watch My fire fall.” ‘Watch the Word come to life in a greater way in 2025. Watch the increase of revelation and demonstration of the POWER of My Word in 2025. I am calling you, My people, deeper into My Word in 2025 and to take Me at My Word with a ferocious resolve. Watch how you will be consumed by My truth and the revelation of who I am in a greater way, that will see the GIANT SLAYERS ARISE in greater ways in 2025.’ ‘For I have much to show you and reveal to you for the coming year. Listen closely, for many divine mysteries, clarity, divine intelligence and strategy will be given to you—to arm and posture you for the coming year. For it will be very clear, in 2025, those who are walking in MY WAY and MY WISDOM and those who are living IN THE WORD, and those who are NOT. Come deeper, My people, listen to My heart and My voice, for there are new frontiers and moves of My Spirit ahead.’ Lana Vawser Lana Vawser Ministries

The Time Is Here

I want to share with you a very powerful prophetic word that I've been praying and sitting on for about the last month or so. The Lord showed me that we are in a five-year time frame in which the window of Heaven has completely opened up. This is not a time that is coming. It is a time that is here.

The five-year window has opened. Ever since the Lord spoke to me about this, everything that my wife and I are doing, all of our ministries and businesses, have started to increase. Our clarity and prophetic edge are increasing. Everything that we're doing is increasing by the Spirit of the Lord.

Confusion, Chaos, or Clarity

This five-year word goes along with another word the Lord recently gave me. It was about confusion, chaos, and clarity. This is a season where everyone is going to be experiencing one of these three things: confusion, chaos, or clarity. I believe the Lord is calling His people above the noise and calamity going on in the world and in the natural realm so that they can walk in His clarity and operate from the heavenly realm.

This word is only highlighting the truth of how we are in a five-year time frame in which the windows of Heaven are open, and it's time for us to build what God has called us to establish.

Build According to the Spirit

This is a complete season of separation. The difference and distance between those who are going after God and those who are pursuing their own agendas is growing wider and more distinct. This is a season where we must build according to the Spirit of the Lord. It is critical for each of us to follow the leading of the Holy Spirit, because how we move forward in this season will determine how the many seasons to come will turn out.

In the next five years, you're not going to be able to do things the way you used to do things. You can no longer rely on things from the past that may have worked in the last season, because this is a new, different season. This season will require you to shift into a new level of discernment and faith. It is a fast-paced, accelerated season. (Photo via Pexels)

If you will build according to the Holy Spirit over the next five years, God will help you to create and build a Goshen. When Egypt was going through the ten plagues, there were people that were in Goshen who didn't have to go through what the rest of Egypt was experiencing.

I believe that over the next five years you're going to be able to build a legacy for the people that you care about. You're also going to be able to build things according to the Kingdom of God that have never been built before.

What Is God Saying to You?

This is a very exciting time! It's a time to evaluate and carefully consider what God is saying to you. Many will be prompted by the Lord to move out of dead and dry religious institutions, churches, and ministries.

Realignments in ministry and relationships are coming. It is vitally important for you to be plugged in with the right people. You will need the right friends around who are radically pursuing God alongside of you. Romans 16:17 says, "I appeal to you, brothers, to watch out for those who cause divisions and create obstacles contrary to the doctrine that you have been taught; avoid them."

Over the next five years, you cannot hang out with those types of people. You can't stay connected with people who are negative, make excuses, and are argumentative. It would be a shame at the end of the next five years to look back and see that you had one friend or family member that you allowed to hold you back from all God has for you.

Separate Yourself to God

This is a season of separation where you are going to have to separate yourself from the world, the entertainment of the world, and the things of the world. This is your season to go wholeheartedly after the things of God. Completely throw your life into the things of God like never before and watch what the Lord will do in and through your life!

"Therefore, 'Come out from among them and be separate, says the Lord. Do not touch what is unclean, and I will receive you. I will be a Father to you, and you shall be My sons and daughters, says the Lord Almighty.'" (2 Corinthians 6:17–18)

There are so many of you out there that if you would just radically pursue the things of God and tap into a realm of the Spirit, then things would begin to break through in your life like you could never even imagine. The truth is, the window of Heaven is open right now. You're not waiting on God; God is waiting on you.

Ephesians 5:11 says, "Take no part in the unfruitful works of darkness, but instead expose them." What would happen if you only did things that were lined up with the Word of God and the prophetic words He has spoken over your life?

There was a period of time, about five years ago, when my wife and I had a prophetic word that we were going to accelerate in a few things. We ended up accelerating over a two-year period more than we had previously in all the years of our lives put together.

There was a period of acceleration where we made sure we were aligned with the Lord in every single area and detail of our lives, and we experienced explosive growth. This season is that type of fast-paced, accelerated season. The next five years are critical for the rest of your life. Make sure you are aligning every part of your life with the Lord and His purposes for you.

Philippians 4:6 in The Passion Translation says, "Don't be pulled in different directions or worried about a thing. Be saturated in prayer throughout each day, offering your faith-filled requests before God with overflowing gratitude..."

If you are not already a person of consistent, daily prayer, it is time to become one, my friends! My wife and I both start every day in prayer. We each go to our designated places in our house and we have prayer time with God. This is how you keep the world from pulling you in different directions. When you are in constant communion with the Lord, then you will remain focused on your Kingdom assignment and Kingdom mandate. (Photo via PickPik)

Consider the Cost

Ecclesiastes 3 talks about how there is a season for everything. This is your season to build. This is your season to plant and advance in God's destiny for you.

Luke 14:28 says, "So don't follow Me without considering what it will cost you. For who would construct a house before first sitting down to estimate the cost to complete it?" If you are going to move forward over the next five years, don't do anything half-heartedly. Consider what it will cost you and then go wholeheartedly in with the Lord.

I remember years ago I went before the Lord and just gave my everything to Him. I told God that I would give up anything He asked me to and would do anything He asked me to do. I counted the cost, and I threw my life into the will and the perfect plan of God. Ever since then I have been rolling with the Lord at a very, very fast pace.

This is the type of season that we are in right now. I want to encourage you today to get alone with God. Spend time fasting and in prayer. Seek the Lord and then move forward in obedience. Ask the Lord to speak to you about the next five years. Allow Him to position you for the next five years in order to set you and your family up financially, physically, and spiritually.

You may need to shift many different things in order to align yourself with what God wants for you. Some may need to move geographical locations, churches, walk away from certain relationships, etc. Don't allow anything to keep you from what the Lord is wanting to do and build with you in this crucial time. The window of Heaven has opened, and it's up to you to step into the blessing and build!
