FOZI Blueprint- A Kingdom Pattern for Building Remnant Communities

The FOZI Blueprint

A Kingdom Pattern for Building Remnant Communities

Fields of Zion is more than a story or a single location. It is a blueprint – a pattern for planting resilient, farm-based communities that serve as places of refuge, discipleship, and practical training for the remnant in the days ahead.

This blueprint did not come from a boardroom or a strategy session. It was forged over years of walking with the Lord through real land, real farms, real storms, and real needs. As each piece emerged – the farm, the storehouse, the training center, the regions of refuge – a pattern began to take shape.

FOZI is a Kingdom pattern for building remnant communities, written down so others can plant the seeds.

Planting Kingdom Communities for the Remnant

Before a community rises from the earth, the blueprint must be laid.

The Fields of Zion blueprint is not a construction plan, a denominational model, or a rigid system. It is a Kingdom pattern — a repeatable framework that produces intentional Christian communities able to weather storms and endure over time.

Its core is rooted in agriculture and land stewardship — a time-tested pattern where God binds His people to:

  • creation (the land),
  • covenant (with one another), and
  • the Creator (YHWH, the Great I AM).

From Eden’s garden to Israel’s inheritance, God has always used land to form His people and their life together (Genesis 2:8–15; Deuteronomy 8:7–10).

Today, He is using tools like the FOZI blueprint to plant Kingdom communities throughout the earth — making His remnant ready for the soon-coming return of the Lord Jesus Christ.

This page introduces the pattern itself: what it is, how it works, and how it multiplies.

What the FOZI Blueprint Is

The FOZI blueprint is not a franchise model. It is a set of patterns, principles, and practical tools that local believers can adapt to their own land, culture, and calling.

It weaves together:

  • Spiritual foundations – identity, core values, Kingdom culture.
  • Physical infrastructure – farms, community centers, and housing.
  • Relational structures – leadership teams, assemblies, and networks.
  • Regional strategy – regions of refuge and corridors of movement.

The goal is simple: to help believers create places where faith, food, fellowship, and formation come together in a sustainable way.

Core Elements of the Blueprint

1. Farm & Community Center (The Engine)

At the heart of every FOZI community is an Interactive Farmstead & Cultural Learning Center (IFCLC) – a working farm combined with a gathering place.

It typically includes:

  • a farmhouse or hall for teaching and fellowship,
  • workshops and barns for skill-building,
  • value-added processing areas (kitchen, dairy, pantry, etc.),
  • small cottages, dorm rooms, or temporary housing,
  • spaces for prayer, counsel, and discipleship.

This is where community life forms and leaders are shaped — a place where believers “continue steadfastly in the apostles’ doctrine and fellowship, in the breaking of bread, and in prayers” (Acts 2:42–47).

The IFCLC revolves around a diversified farmstead, often including:

  • gardens and orchards,
  • greenhouses,
  • livestock and pastures,
  • hands-on agricultural learning,
  • daily rhythms of work, rest, and worship.

People are trained here not only in agriculture, but in community function, teamwork, stewardship, and spiritual maturity. The farm is not a backdrop. It is a living classroom — a daily reminder that God provides, that growth takes time, and that fruit comes through faithfulness.

2. Layers of Community – The Goshen

The FOZI blueprint recognizes that healthy community grows in layers:

  • The Home – households living simply, rooted in prayer, work, and hospitality.
  • The Local Hub – a FOZI farm or community center that gathers and equips.
  • The Region – a network of hubs cooperating across a shared territory.

Every FOZI community sits within a broader ring of influence — a local Goshen. The Goshen is not a walled compound. It is a region of:

  • neighboring homes and homesteads,
  • small businesses and supporting farms,
  • families connected to the mission,
  • a relational network of mutual aid and shared purpose.

Each layer supports the others. Homes feed the hub. The hub strengthens the region. The region becomes a covering for many in times of shaking.

The Goshen is where the remnant gathers, strengthens, and prepares — “a place prepared by God” (Revelation 12:6).

3. FOZI “Boats” – Prototypes & Arks

In the language of the blueprint, each FOZI community center is like a boat or ark — a vessel designed to carry people through a season of shaking and into a new way of life.

These “boats” include:

  • demonstration farms that show what a small, faithful work can become when the Lord breathes on it,
  • training centers where people come for a time, learn, receive, and then are sent to help build elsewhere,
  • community hubs that quietly serve their surrounding towns with food, counsel, and practical help.

No two boats look exactly the same, but they all follow the same core pattern: presence, people, and place working together under the Lord’s leadership, as in the days of Noah and Joseph (Hebrews 11:7; Genesis 41:53–57).

4. Leadership & Assemblies

FOZI communities are not built around a single personality. They are built around teams — spiritual and practical leaders serving together in a simple, biblical framework.

In addition to pastors, teachers, and prophetic voices, the blueprint makes room for:

  • stewards of agriculture and land care,
  • stewards of finance, business, and trade,
  • stewards of hospitality, education, and care,
  • stewards of planning, preparedness, and local governance.

These leaders form assemblies – small teams within the greater body – who work together to discern needs, seek the Lord, and carry out practical plans (Acts 13:1–3).

For more on this aspect, see Leadership & Assemblies.

5. Kingdom Economy & Work

The FOZI blueprint places strong emphasis on a Kingdom-centered local economy. Businesses exist not to chase profit first, but to:

  • meet the basic needs of the community — food, shelter, clothing, honest work,
  • model integrity, generosity, and justice in daily transactions,
  • provide meaningful labor that restores dignity and teaches responsibility.

The products matter, but the way they are produced matters more.

This reflects the heart of passages like Jeremiah 29:5–7 and Isaiah 58:10–12, where God’s people build, plant, and bless even in difficult times.

6. Preparedness Without Fear

FOZI communities prepare for disruption, but not from a spirit of panic. The blueprint encourages practical readiness:

  • local food production and storage,
  • access to clean water,
  • basic energy, heating, and communication backups.

Yet the primary preparation is always spiritual — faith, discernment, and trust in the Lord. FOZI is preparation, not escape.

Regions of Refuge & Corridors of Movement

The blueprint does not end at a single property or farm. Over time, FOZI communities unify into regions — broader territories where the pattern takes hold.

These are not political states. They are spiritual geographies where the remnant can grow, train, and flourish.

In this pattern, certain valleys, hills, and rural corridors become:

  • safe places where remnant believers can be gathered and equipped,
  • training grounds for those called to plant new communities elsewhere,
  • supply lines that can support cities and neighbors during crisis.

Some of these regions are already highlighted — stretches of New England, pockets in other states, and key locations in places like Jamaica — but the pattern is global. Wherever the Lord joins land and people with this call, a new region of refuge can emerge.

Corridors of Movement

Each FOZI site links to others through corridors — geographical and spiritual pathways that form a connected network of refuge.

These corridors are:

  • prophetic — highlighted by the Lord’s leading,
  • relational — built on trust and shared calling,
  • strategic — positioned with wisdom and foresight,
  • practical — usable routes for travel, supply, and support.

They ensure that movement, training, and care flow naturally between communities.

How the FOZI Blueprint Replicates

The blueprint is designed to multiply.

FOZI grows through a simple, reproducible process:

  1. Establish the Farm & Community Center.
  2. Train people through the IFCLC in both spiritual and practical skills.
  3. Send trained leaders to help plant the next site.
  4. Strengthen the Goshen around each community — homes, businesses, supporting farms.
  5. Connect communities through corridors of movement and relationship.
  6. Develop regions of refuge as multiple sites work together.

This is how a single farm becomes a network, and a network becomes a movement.

Why This Blueprint Matters

Preparedness without fear. Community without control. Simplicity with power.

The FOZI blueprint addresses real-world needs the same way God taught through the land:

  • Communities must be locally grounded.
  • Food, water, shelter, and clothing must be accessible.
  • Skills must be shared and passed on.
  • Leadership must be humble and spiritual.
  • People must learn to work, worship, and live together.
  • Provision must be near the source, not far away in fragile systems.
  • Refuge must be practical, not theoretical.

This blueprint merges the spiritual and the practical into one unified whole.
It prepares the remnant to stand — not hide — in the days ahead.

How to Use the FOZI Blueprint

The FOZI blueprint is offered as a gift and a tool to the wider Body of Christ. It is especially for:

  • believers sensing a call to plant or join intentional, land-based communities,
  • pastors and leaders who know their congregation needs a more resilient way of life,
  • business owners and farmers who want their work to serve a larger Kingdom purpose,
  • intercessors and watchmen who see the shaking ahead and long for practical answers.

You are not asked to copy a model, but to seek the Lord for how this pattern applies to your people and your land.

FOZI exists to come alongside — to share lessons learned, mistakes made, and tools developed along the way.

As the work unfolds, more resources will be made available: teaching materials, planning tools, leadership training, and examples from communities already walking this out in real time.

The Blueprint Is an Invitation

This blueprint is not a secret.

It is not exclusive.
It is not proprietary.

It is a pattern the Lord revealed so communities can:

  • build wisely,
  • prepare practically,
  • train effectively,
  • multiply faithfully,
  • strengthen one another,
  • become places of peace, provision, and purpose.

You are not asked to join an organization. You are invited to follow a blueprint.
