This is an excerpt from a recent letter from Jane Hansen Hoyt, Release the Sound.
As the news of the death of Queen Elizabeth II, at 96, reverberated around the world, a great and effectual door opened to a new era. For 70 years she remained faithful to the proclamation spoken at the young age of 21, “I declare before you that my whole life, whether it be long or short, shall be devoted to your service…” She was steadfast and unwavering in her duty to God and those she led.
As we survey world news, we see other signs of change. We welcome the new Prime Minister in Italy, Giorgia Meloni, and we pray for the changes in Great Britain. Ecclesiastes 3:1 says, “To everything there is a season….” Change is a constant. As leaders come and go, our responsibility is to pray for each to have an ear to hear what the Spirit is saying and to obey it.
Dutch Sheets, a speaker at our upcoming gathering in St. Louis, MO, has reminded us often that our greatest days are not behind us; rather they are ahead of us. We see this in the Word of God, too, in the promises He has made to pour out His Spirit upon all flesh, especially our sons and our daughters. His blessings toward us are generational. I believe this and pray His promises over my family, as I know you do over yours.

Heaven NEVER Gets Shook!
This is an excerpt from a recent letter from Jane Hansen Hoyt, "Look Up!"
I love to include hymns in my worship time. One that crosses my lips frequently is ‘On Christ the Solid Rock I Stand.’
‘My hope is built on nothing less than Jesus’ blood and righteousness.
I dare not trust the sweetest frame but wholly lean on Jesus’ Name.
On Christ, the Solid Rock, I stand; all other ground is sinking sand,
all other ground is sinking sand.
In every rough and stormy gale, my anchor holds within the vale.
When all around my soul gives way, He then is all my hope and stay.
On Christ, the Solid Rock, I stand; all other ground is sinking sand,
all other ground is sinking sand.’
What a powerful declaration of Jesus, our Rock!As we watch the news and hear reports of governments failing, droughts, famines, wars, and rumors of wars, we continue to turn our thoughts to the Lord. I want to draw your attention to part of Lance Wallnau’s Friday night session in Orlando, FL, last year. He said, “Heaven NEVER gets shook!” Everything might be shaking, but the Kingdom of God is steadfast. It is immovable!
