The Second String of the Apostolic: The Rise of the Matthias—The Gift of God
A 7-Day Apostolic Devotional by Emmanuel Allen
When Judas fell, an apostolic seat did not simply become vacant—a governmental assignment fell back into the hands of heaven. In that moment, the Lord revealed a prophetic mystery: He does not promote the most visible; He raises the most faithful.
Matthias, a man hidden in the shadows of Scripture, becomes heaven’s blueprint for this generation. He was not the first choice. His name wasn’t on the platform. He wasn’t celebrated, endorsed, or positioned by men. Yet he was counted by God.
This devotional is a call to the Matthias Company—those who have walked with Jesus through every season yet remained unseen. Those who have served without applause. Those who have been consistent while others were chaotic. Those who have been loyal while others were loud. Those who heaven has quietly prepared for a seat of government.
Across seven prophetic days, you will discover:
- The apostolic mystery of divine selection
- How God elevates the hidden over the highlighted
- The qualification of faithfulness in a culture of visibility
- Why the “second string” carries a first-class mantle
- How vacancies in the Spirit realm summon prepared vessels
- The rise of replacement apostles and governmental reformers
- Your identity, authority, and appointment in the kingdom order
This is not just a devotional—this is a summons.
A commissioning.
A prophetic awakening for those God has preserved for such a time as this.
If you have ever felt overlooked, underestimated, or delayed—prepare yourself.
Heaven is numbering you.
Your name is being called forward.
The mantle is being placed on your shoulders.
Welcome to the rise of the Matthias.
Welcome to the Second String of the Apostolic.
