New commissioned painting: The new level

Neue Ebene

© Copyright by JockyArt

I'm very happy to be able to present you a new commissioned painting that I was able to finish recently.
It was the second commission from a friend in the church, each for one of her daughters.

The picture totally challenged me, for a long time I wasn't sure how to approach the whole thing. I started several attempts, even with some digital sketches.

This is what I wrote to the recipient about my impression:

Hello [...],
your mother asked me to pray for you and then to paint my impression as a picture with my colored pencils.
Here's what I received for you when I heard for you. I saw you squeeze through a crack in the ground. You left the level you were on before, climbed through the rift to the new level and are now in a whole new land.

What now lies before you is completely blank and unknown. But it was necessary to leave the familiar, well-known level behind you and dare something new. Somehow that wasn't the usual way to leave something behind either. That can be quite challenging, because you have to find your way in the new environment first.

But it is Jesus who has led you to the new level and He will also be with you in the new phase, accompanying you and helping you. Have courage, God is with you!

Warm regards and God’s bless
Johannes

House of Worship (Original)

Haus der Anbetung

© Copyright 2023 by JockyArt.de

I have put another original painting online for you, which was created spontaneously during a worship time in the house of prayer in Munich. It is inspired by the song "House of Miracles' by Brandon Lake.

This line in particular caught my eye:

“This is a house of worship, this is a place of praise where every demon trembles…”

The star (colored pencil)

I designed this picture as a motif for another Christmas greeting card. The star is one of the most important symbols of Christmas. The star that led the wise men to Jesus in Bethlehem.

"When they saw the star, they were overjoyed."
Matthew 2: 10

Prophetic Art: Each Fruit Takes Its Time (Colored Pencil)

Jede Frucht braucht ihre Zeit

© Copyright 2022 by JockyArt.de

I began to create this spontaneous, prophetic picture on an outreach auf der „Langen Kunst Nacht“ in Landsberg a. Lech begonnen.  Jede Frucht braucht Zeit zum Heranreifen, es dauert uns manchmal viel zu lange. Manche Früchte brauchen sogar Frost, damit sie die notwendige Süße und Reife erhalten. Als Kinder haben wir Pflaumen geerntet als es schon kalt und diesig war.

If something is taking longer in your life, it may be because your fruit has yet to ripen.

But that's not all we're happy about; we also rejoice in the hardships we are going through now.

For we know that adversity teaches us to persevere, and those who have learned to persevere are tried, and being tried breeds hope.

And in our hope we will not be disappointed. For God has given us the Holy Spirit and through him has filled our hearts with the assurance that he loves us.

Romans 5:3-5

Prophetic Art: Let Incense Rise (Colored Pencil)

© Copyright 2022 by JockyArt.de

This spontaneous, prophetic picture was created during a prayer and worship time in the house of prayer Munich. The picture is inspired by the song "Worthy of it all", where in one line it says:

Day and night, night and day, let incense arise (Tag und Nacht, Nacht und Tag, lass Weihrauch aufsteigen)

Here, incense is a picture of our devotion, worship, and praise, rising like incense to God in heaven.

Prophetic Art: The Bleeding Heart (Colored Pencil)

Blutendes Herz

© Copyright 2022 by JockyArt.de

This spontaneous, prophetic picture was created during a worship time in my home group. In our lives we experience hurt and disappointment again and again, so that our heart bleeds and hurts.

But we don't have to hide this bleeding heart, we can hold it out to Jesus because he wants to heal it. He can even restore our hearts so much that new passion and fire pour out of them.

He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.

Psalm 147: 3

Prophetic Art: Wounds transformed into Glory (colored pencil)

Wunden verwandelt in Herrlichkeit (Buntstift)

© Copyright 2022 by JockyArt.de

This spontaneous, prophetic painting was created at a seminar with Katja Vosseler. In our lives we repeatedly experience deep injuries that change our lives forever. We often think we'll never get over it.

But through Jesus these wounds can be healed in such a way that the scars turn into diamonds. We can help others who have been through similar things and show them the way to healing. Our wounds turn into glory!

Prophetic Art: The Dragon and the Woman

Der Drache und die Frau

© Copyright 2022 by JockyArt.de

Heute darf ich euch ein neues Auftragsbild präsentieren. Es war der dritte Auftrag einer Freundin für eine mir unbekannte Empfängerin.

Das Original ist natürlich nicht mehr verfügbar. Aber gerne könnt ihr das Bild in verschiedenen Formaten und Ausführungen bestellen:
prints
canvas

I wrote this to the recipient:

Hello dear unknown recipient of the picture,
I have a prophetic picture for you today after […] asked me to pray for you and ask Jesus what He wants to say to you through me. I should paint what I received as a picture for you.

So when I was praying for you, this picture came up very quickly. I saw a large red dragon curled up to sleep. It was totally dark around him and there was scorched earth everywhere. In the midst of it all, a woman stood paralyzed because she was pinned right behind the dragon's neck. At first the woman was totally overwhelmed and was rigid with fear. She didn't know what had happened to her and how she could get out of the precarious situation.

But the longer she was in the situation, the more she realized that she was already light here. Her immediate surroundings were illuminated by your presence alone (or Jesus within you). There was even green grass growing around her. She recognized more and more the authority she has in Christ and began to take her stand. Eventually she even found joy in conquering this land for Jesus and in triumphing over the circumstances and in even shaping the atmosphere.

I wish that this picture will help you to look away from your challenging circumstances (the dragon and the scorched land) and to see more and more who you are in Christ and the authority you are given through His blood and His name. Take your country! Jesus is in and with you!

"Little children, you are from God and have overcome them, for he who is in you is greater than he who is in the world."
1 John 4:4

Have fun with the picture. I look forward to feedback.”

Johannes Spörl
