The Double Portion of New Wine: A Prophetic Outpouring from August 4 to August 19, 2025
This is a prophetic word for those with ears to hear. Through dreams, visions, number patterns, and alignment with Scripture, the Holy Spirit has revealed a season of divine outpouring. From August 4 to August 19, 2025, a “double portion” of new wine will be poured out to prepare the 288,000 firstfruits Bride—both Jew and Gentile—for the tribulation witness to come. This is a time of preparation, separation, and commission.
On July 16, 2025, the Holy Spirit released a blazing revelation—a season of new wine outpouring from August 4 to August 19. This is not symbolic only—it is timed and targeted. A week of completion (7 days) extends into a double portion (16 days: 8 × 2). It prepares the 288,000 firstfruits Bride—double the 144,000: 144,000 Jews and 144,000 Gentiles (1 Chronicles 25:7)—to carry their witness from now until the appointed time.
This 7/16 timing isn’t random. It links Tisha B’Av’s mourning (August 2–3; Zechariah 8:19) to Tu B’Av’s bridal betrothal (August 8–9; Mishnah Ta’anit 4:8). It also aligns with the heliacal rising of Sirius (August 8–11)—a sign of spiritual renewal (Deuteronomy 4:19). My wedding anniversary on August 19 (8/19)—like Zechariah 8:19—seals it: a covenant milestone and closing marker.
Rooted in the pattern of 4 and 8—dalet for door (August 4), and 8 for new beginnings—this window comes after a 40-day preparation (June 25–August 4). It carries a double dose of Spirit-filled new wine, equipping the Bride for what’s ahead, especially the Second Passover rapture in the middle of Daniel’s 70th week. The timing, signs, and Spirit alignment confirm: the call is now.
It began June 25, sparked by a dream I received while resting at 4,000 feet in the mountains. The Spirit confirmed: a 40-day preparation was unfolding, just as Moses spent 40 days on Mount Sinai receiving covenant instruction (Exodus 24:18; Exodus 19:3–6). Now, in our generation, this leads to a new wine outpouring.
Following Tisha B’Av (August 2–3), the day of mourning, August 4 becomes a filling station of Holy Spirit joy (Isaiah 61:3) and hidden manna (Revelation 2:17).
Tu B’Av (August 8–9) arrives as a surprising moment of hidden joy and bridal preparation. While the world remains unaware, something is being whispered in the Spirit. This is not a date to mark lightly—it carries with it a deep prophetic signature of union, testing, and readiness.
In Jewish tradition, Tu B’Av is considered one of the most joyful days of the year, often associated with weddings, matchmaking, and reconciliation. But to the discerning Bride, it speaks of a deeper mystery: a time of being seen, chosen, and spiritually refined before the final countdown begins.
This season doesn’t stop at 7 days—it stretches to 16. From August 4 to my own 8/19 wedding anniversary, we see a full double portion. Sixteen (8 × 2) amplifies the power of the 8th day—symbolic of circumcision (Genesis 17:12), Shemini Atzeret (Leviticus 23:36), and total renewal.
Tu B’Av (8/8) and the rising of Sirius (August 8–11) form a transition point. August 11—or 8 × 11 = 88—is a mirror of double new beginnings. By August 19, the 16th day, the vineyards are full (Judges 9:27), the Bride is betrothed, and the cup of covenant is overflowing.
It’s no accident that my friend’s son, Israel, turns two on 8/8—another layer. The signs are personal, national, and cosmic.
This is not just about numbers—it’s about prophetic design.
The 288,000—double 144,000—reflect Isaiah 61:7: “Instead of your shame you will have a double portion.” The date of revelation, 7/16, even mirrors that promise in Hebrew order (61/7). The number 288 shows up again in the structure of New Jerusalem: 12² + 12² = 288.
A flood of new wine (Isaiah 61:3; Ephesians 5:18) is being poured into the BA flood of new wine (Isaiah 61:3; Ephesians 5:18) is being poured into the Bride, preparing her for the celebration described in Revelation 19:7–8—the wedding feast of the Lamb. Even Job, after great loss, received a double portion of restoration (Job 42:10). This is a promise of full restoration, joy, and honor for the faithful.
The numbers align. The 484-day span from the April 8, 2024 solar eclipse to August 4, 2025, locks in the timeline. Dalet and chet—4 and 8—door and new beginning.
This season is also a prophetic warning to awaken, prepare, and stand.
Like Elijah, the Bride is being called to Horeb (1 Kings 19:8). The 288,000 will walk in the order of Melchizedek (Hebrews 7:17; Psalm 110:4)—a priesthood that is eternal. Melchizedek brought out bread and wine (Genesis 14:18)—now, the new wine and hidden manna are for those who overcome (Revelation 2:17).
These firstfruits are a royal priesthood (1 Peter 2:9), called to intercede as incense before God (Revelation 8:3–4). The Spirit is separating, filling, and commissioning the Bride before the shaking to come. Revival will break out as the 288,000 begin to shine like a foretaste of New Jerusalem (Revelation 21:2).
From August 4 to August 19, 2025, the new wine is being poured. The firstfruits will be filled with joy, strength, and boldness for the season ahead.
Tisha B’Av’s mourning will turn to joy, just as Zechariah 8:19 declares:
“Thus says the LORD of hosts: The fast of the fourth month, the fast of the fifth, the fast of the seventh, and the fast of the tenth will become joyful and glad occasions and cheerful seasons for the house of Judah. Therefore, love truth and peace.” (Zechariah 8:19)
This Scripture promises transformation—fasting and mourning replaced with gladness and celebration. It is the Lord’s prophetic declaration that the Bride’s season of preparation will overflow into a season of joy and victory.
Tu B’Av’s vineyard dance (August 8–9) marks the joyful betrothal. Sirius’s heliacal rising (August 8–11), like the Nile flood in Egypt, signals life coming to the thirsty (Isaiah 44:3).
Then comes 8/19, my wedding covenant anniversary—the 16th day. The seal is complete.
This is the double portion. This is the wine before the wilderness. This is the oil for the lamps.
Bride of Christ—arise, be filled, and shine.
Hallelujah.
