Roll Out the Red Carpet! My Daughters Are Coming on the Scene!
For a couple of weeks now, the Lord's voice has been resounding in my spirit, saying:
"Roll out the red carpet! My daughters are coming on the scene!"
As He spoke this to me, He showed me a vision of a beautiful young woman walking down the staircase of a palace. The stairs were covered in a beautiful red velvet carpet that stretched all the way down to the threshold of a majestic ballroom.
She was wearing a gorgeous, intricate white gown, and as she entered the room, she kept her eyes fixed straight ahead. I turned to my right to see where she was looking, and there sat a King on His throne.
He nodded, as if to say, "Come forward." She walked toward Him, and when she came near, she curtsied before the King.
As the vision ended, I realized that the scene reminded me of a debutante ball.
I smiled because I immediately understood what the Lord was referring to. I've always loved English period dramas. If it's anything like Jane Austen or set in that era, and it's appropriate, I'm watching it. I just love the elegance, the history, the traditions, and I love how God speaks to each of us in ways that are familiar to us. He knows what captures our attention because He made us. That's my language, and that's the picture He chose to use.
For those who may not know, a debutante ball was a formal event where a young woman was introduced into society for the first time. It marked her public unveiling.
But what The Lord highlighted to me was not just the unveiling or presentation of the debutant, but the process she had to go through in order to be there.
Everything that happened before it.
A debutante didn't simply put on a beautiful dress and walk down a staircase. Before that moment ever arrived, she went through an intentional season of preparation. She learned how to carry herself, how to conduct herself with grace, dignity, humility, and honor. She was taught etiquette, discipline, patience, and self-control. Every detail mattered because when she was finally presented, she represented the family she belonged to.
One detail about debutante balls particularly stood out to me. Their presentation didn't happen whenever they thought they were ready. It took place during what was known as
"The Season."
They had to wait for the appointed time. There was a process, there were protocols, and there was an order that had to be followed before they could be publicly presented.
The Lord is saying, "This is the Season. The season of your public unveiling."
Then He directed my attention to the gown.
The gown wasn't just beautiful, it was custom-made.
It was designed specifically for her. No one else could wear it because it had been tailored to fit her alone.
That gown represented the unique mantle, calling, and assignment God has prepared for each one of His daughters.
No one can wear your mantle. No one can fulfill your assignment. God has uniquely designed it for you.
But most importantly, He has been preparing you to wear it!
God doesn't just prepare the assignment; He prepares the person who will carry it. He works on our character, our hearts, our motives, our dependence on Him, and our obedience, so that when the time comes, we are able to steward what He entrusts to us.
All throughout Scripture we see what I would call: red carpet moments.
These are the moments when God suddenly brings His chosen ones onto the scene and presents them publicly.
To everyone watching, it often seems like it happened overnight.
But only God and those who've been through it know the truth.
That public moment was the result of a long season of hidden preparation.
It is what I've spoken about before as Kairos and Nexus intersecting. God's appointed time meets the place where everything He has been preparing finally comes together.
What appears sudden is actually the manifestation of years of preparation.
We see this over and over again throughout the Bible.
Mordecai's red carpet moment came when Haman had no choice but to lead him through the city, proclaiming, "This is what is done for the man the king delights to honor." The very man who wanted him destroyed became the one who publicly honored him.
Esther's red carpet moment wasn't when she became queen. It came the moment she embraced her true identity, surrendered to the will of God, and stepped into the purpose for which she had been chosen. When the king extended his golden scepter to her, she left behind the identity of an orphan and fully walked in her calling as a queen. That was the moment she truly came onto the scene.
Joseph's red carpet moment came when, in a single day, he was taken from prison, clothed in fine linen, given Pharaoh's signet ring, seated in the second chariot, and installed as second in command over all of Egypt.
Daniel's red carpet moment came when he walked out of the lions' den unharmed, and the king publicly acknowledged the greatness of his God.
The three Hebrew boys had their red carpet moment when they came out of the fiery furnace without even the smell of smoke on them, and the king honored both them and the God they served.
David's red carpet moment came after years of shepherding sheep, hiding in caves, and running for his life before he was finally crowned king.
Every one of these moments looked sudden, but none of them were.
Each one was preceded by a process of preparation, testing, and refining.
A process of learning to trust God when everything around you seems to say the opposite of what He promised.
And I believe that is exactly what the Lord Is saying in this hour.
"You have been through the process. Now it is time to be unveiled."
It is time to step onto the scene. Time to be publicly recognized, not for your own glory, but for My purposes. Time to use everything I have taught you through the hidden seasons to accomplish the assignments I prepared for you before you were even born.
"For we are God's handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do."
Ephesians 2:10
People will not simply recognize you; they will recognize the hand of God upon your life. They will acknowledge the anointing you carry. They will sense the spiritual atmosphere shift when you enter the room, because of Who goes before you and lives within you.
The phrase "roll out the red carpet" means to give someone a grand welcome, to receive them with honor, dignity, and distinction.
I don't believe the Lord is speaking about worldly fame or recognition, although for some, that may be part of the assignment.
I believe He is announcing that daughters He has been preparing in secret are about to be presented publicly into the assignments He has prepared for them.
Because the season of preparation has produced what was needed for the assignment they have been called to steward.
The unveiling may seem sudden to everyone else, but Heaven knows it has been years in the making.
So daughters, don't lose hope in the waiting. Your wilderness, your training, and your refining were all preparing you for the fitting of your custom-made gown, tailored exclusively for you. Now, put it on. Walk boldly in the anointing God has entrusted to you, accomplish every assignment He prepared in advance for your life, and fulfill the purpose for which you were created. It's time to come onto the scene.
