A Special Word From the Lord this Pentecost 2023

“I am among my church still and will always stay. The church is my holy bride and I constantly wash her away from accusations against her. The number one tactic of the devil and this unclean world against my church is to slow her down with accusations. This Pentecost I will release my church into new levels of freedom, a glorious freedom!

“Who is this who looks down like the dawn, beautiful as the moon, bright as the sun, awesome as an army with banners?” Song of Solomon 6:10

Accusations uglify and you are beautiful in me. Be on my side, always release my heart of intercession, and don’t weaken my arm, the church is my holy arm and I want to use you greatly for such a time as this. Please know the nature of the accusation and know that you are not of it. It is the stranger’s voice that you don’t hear. Truth leads, accusation stops your progress and my kingdom’s advancement. There is nothing good in accusation, it is not the exhortation that you want to release, it is totally different.

I love you; I am meeting with you in a special way this Pentecost, it is the church’s birthday that is so precious to my heart. The church carries my precious salvation to the whole world. The enemy couldn’t stop me from redemption but if he could stop the church that carries the message, he would love to and he is working on this night and day! Today you are seeing the many laws the enemy is establishing to restrict your freedom and kill the message, twist it, and label it as craziness, hatred, and religious. But I will rise, the ancient days, and turn things swiftly and suddenly. I love suddenlies, don’t you?

I will do a new thing in your schools, well, it is not new; I am just digging old wells that will refresh the generation. I want you to know my heart this Pentecost, I don’t hate those against me, I love them all to life. You can still love everyone and stand for the truth. Hating others will put you in a vulnerable position, weaken your truth and even contaminate your anointing, you will be rendered ineffective. Don’t swallow that bait!

This Pentecost, I am touching your tongues, and realigning them with LIFE for your organs are a weapon of righteousness.

Repent.

Amen

God bless you

If you feel led to sow into this prophetic ministry this Pentecost it will be a great blessing that will help us advance the word of God.

 

In Christ Everything Is Brand New

“Therefore, if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away, behold all things are become new” (2 Corinthians 5:17)

When you give your life to Jesus Christ or genuinely accept Him as your personal Lord, Savior, Master and Ruler of your soul (being born again), you will pleasantly experience certain changes in your life which makes you a new creature and gives you a brand new beginning. We shall discuss some of these changes that you will experience in this message.

1) You Now Walk In A New Way
“By a new and living way, which He hath consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, His flesh” (Hebrews 10:20)
By the death of Jesus Christ, the veil that hindered access to the Most High Place in the temple was removed. You now have direct access and can walk into God’s presence at any time. You no longer need an intermediary or High Priest or Pastor to intercede on your behalf.

2) You Are Now In A New Covenant With God
“For finding fault with them, He saith, Behold the days come, saith the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah” (Hebrews 8:8).

Have you entered into this covenant? Have you begun walking in a new and better way?

3) You Are Now A New Creature
According to 2 Corinthians 5:17, which is our text for this message, when you are born-again, you become brand new on the inside. The Holy Spirit gives you a new life and you are not the same any more. Please note that you are not re-educated or remodelled or rehabilitated or reformed. You are totally re-created (a new creation), living in vital union with Christ, according to Colossian 2:6-7.
At conversion, we are not merely turning a new leaf, but we are beginning a new life in new hope under a new Master, Jesus.

4) You Have A Brand New Name
“He that hath an ear let him hear what the spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat, of the hidden manner, and will give him white stone, and in the stone, a new name written, which no man knoweth, saving he that recieveth it” (Revelation 2:17).
The name of every believer will be written on each stone as evidence that he/she has truly given their life to Christ and worthy to be declared worthy to receive eternal life. God will give us new names and new hearts. Are you ready to receive yours?

Also Revelation 3:12 says that “Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the Temple of my God, and he shall go no more out, and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the City of my God, which is New Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and I will write upon him my new name”
Revelation 3:12 is telling us that the New Jerusalem is the future dwelling of the people of God. This means that we will have a new citizenship in God’s future kingdom, where everything will be new, pure and secure. Won’t you rather have a new Name in God’s future kingdom where everything is pure, new and safe?

5) You Will Receive A New Commandment
“A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another, as I have loved you, that ye also love one another” (John 13:34).

We are commanded to love one another based on Jesus’ sacrificial love for us. It is only such love that will win souls for Christ and keep us Christians united. We are expected to be living examples of Jesus’ love just as He was the living example of God’s love. Do people know that you are a follower of Jesus by your love for others?

6) You Find New Mercies Every Morning
“It is of the LORD’s mercies that we are not consumed, because His compassions fail not. They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness” (Lamentations 3:22-23).

God’ mercy is always available to His children because His steadfast love and mercy are greater than any sin. God promises us His forgiveness. When you trust in God’s faithfulness day by day, gives you confidence in His great promise for the future.
Are you positioned for God’s mercies which are new every morning?

7) You Will Have A New Heaven For The Whole Eternity
“And I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea” (Revelation 21:1).

God has promised that He would create a new earth which is eternal (Isaiah 65:17, 66:22). What we don’t know is where the new earth would be or what it would look like. However, God and His children (those whose names are written in the Book of Life), the overcomers, will be united to live in the new earth together forever.
I will be one of them………hope to see you there!!

8) You Will Experience A New Birth
“Jesus answered and said unto him, (Nichodemus), Verily, verily, I unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God” (John 3:3).

The Kingdom of God is a personal experience. It is not ethnic or national. The entrance requirements are ONLY found in Jesus. These include Repentance and New Birth (Rebirth). This, you will have when you are born again.
You can only enter the kingdom of God by being spiritually reborn.

9) You Will Receive New Life
“Therefore we are buried with Him by baptism into death; that as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life” (Romans 6:4).
.The water baptism you receive when you give your life to Jesus symbolises the death and burial of the old way of life you had before giving your life to Jesus. Coming out of or being raised from the water symbolises resurrection to New Life with Christ.
With your old sinful life dead and buried, you can resist sin and begin to enjoy your wonderful new life with Christ.

10) You Now Have a New Heart
“And I will give them one heart, and I will put a new spirit within you; and I will take the stony heart out of their flesh, and will give them an heart of flesh” (Ezekiel 11:19).
By “one heart”, it means a singleness of purpose – the One and Only True God, no more other gods. We must turn from our sins and the Holy Spirit will enable our new life. God will then give us new purposes, motives and guidelines as we enjoy our wonderful new heart.
Have you received your new heart yet?

11) You Have A New Spirit
“And I will put my spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes, and ye shall keep my judgements, and do them” (Ezekiel 36:27)
No matter how impure our life is right now, God promises you a new or fresh start. Jesus can wash away your sins and give you a new heart for God to have His Spirit within you.
Why would you want to continue to patch up your old life when you could have a brand new life?

12) You Will Be A Completely New Person
“For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day” (2 Corinthians 4:16).
Apostle Paul did not give up in the face of persecution. Instead, he concentrated in experiencing the inner strength from the Holy Spirit (Eph 3:16, Col 3:10). You also should not allow anything to force you to quit. Rather renew your commitment to serve the Lord. Never allow the intensity of today’s pain force you to forsake your eternal reward. Your very weakness allows the resurrection power of Christ to strengthen you moment by moment.

13) You Will Sing A New Song Joyfully
“And they sung a new song saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof; for thou was slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation” (Revelation 5:9).
Psalm 40:3 also says “And He hath put a new song in my mouth, even praise unto our God: many shall see it, and fear, and shall trust in the LORD”.
It is not easy to wait for God’s help, but when you do, the benefits are usually more than the waiting. For example David received the following benefits for waiting on the LORD:
              a) He was lifted out of his despair
              b) God sets David’s feet on the rock
              c) God gave him a firm place to stand
              d) God put a new song of praise in the mouth of David

More often than not, blessings are not received unless we go through the trial of waiting
We always need to praise God for what He has already done in our lives, what He is currently doing in our lives and praise Him in advance of what He is yet to do for us. In this way, He will do more for us with a joyful song in our mouth.

14) You Will Live In New City
“And I John saw the Holy City, New Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and He will dwell with them; and they shall be His people, and God Himself shall be with them, and He, their God. And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more deaths, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away” (Revelation 21:2-4).

New Jerusalem is the New City where God lives with His people. Where He lives, there is joy, peace, security and love. It is described as a place where God will wipe away tears “from their eyes”. There will be no more deaths, sorrow, crying or pain forever. What a wonderful truth and place to be!
We may not know as much as we would like to, one thing is so sure that eternity with God would be more wonderful than we could ever imagine. Where else would you rather be?

Until you have Jesus Christ in your life (being born again) God’s continued presence can never abide with you. Today, accept Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Saviour. Ask Him to forgive your sins and become the Master and Ruler of your soul henceforth. If you have backslid, retrace your steps back to Him right now and rededicate your life to God. However, if you have a living relationship with God, then tell others about Him – How everything concerning their lives will become new with wonderful lives in Christ. Congratulations if you have just accepted Jesus Christ into your life. Now look for a Bible believing church in your neighborhood to attend and grow in the Word of God.

 

God Bless You

Prophetic Word for the month of Sivan 5783 June 2023

We just stepped into a new biblical Hebraic month, the month of SIVAN – JUNE and it is my birthday month (haha). I was born on June 7th, 1984 and the letter associated with the month of Sivan is Zayin which counts 7 too. I love number 7! I pray you will have a blessed month under the canopy of God's presence, blessings & APPOINTMENTS in Jesus' name.

I was praying for you, those who visit my website, and on my mailing list and this is what I believe the Holy Spirit wants to say to you about this new month.

You can study yourself about the month of Sivan 5783 and even ask the Lord to give you specific words for this month but I am highlighting to you here what I feel the Lord wants to zero on and remember we prophesy in PART! So do your homework.

I feel like titling it the MONTH OF BLESSINGS & UNPRECEDENTED BLESSINGS! Some of you will receive their promotions in SIVAN-JUNE, a long-awaited desire. I feel the Holy Spirit highlighting Joseph in the Old Testament. God wants you to receive the blessings that were on his life, yes you can because in Christ you are grated and the blessings of our forefathers are down passed to us. LORD, I AM CLAIMING THOSE BLESSINGS RIGHT NOW IN JESUS' MIGHTY NAME!

Breakthrough, strength, and power will be the hovering banner over you this time. Power will be released with your spoken words so be careful to speak life and be under the submission of the Holy Spirit. It is going to be a great month in the presence of the Lord Yeshua, Jesus. Amen!

Cessationism versus continuationism

1 Corinthians 13:8 Love never ends. But as for prophecies, they will come to an end; as for tongues, they will cease; as for knowledge, it will come to an end. 9 For we know only in part, and we prophesy only in part; 10 but when the complete comes the partial will come to an end.

Meditating on these verses, it was laid in my heart that truly ‘Love never ends because God is love and God has no ending and we are encouraged to love every one of us because in it lies the anchor of every godliness. But not every one of us is given the gift of prophecy and tongue, each with a diverse gift.

Prophecies, tongues and other spiritual gifts end here on earth and are for the building up and edification of the church but love transcended beyond the scope of the church, to the circular world and to eternity. In Matthew 5:44 ‘But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you,’ your enemies include those outside the household of God.

Arguably! The church cannot operate and function without all the gifts of the Holy Spirit. At every stage and level, the church ought to be continuously equipped and edified; if not the enemy will feed on God's children. When we play down on these gifts and fail to use it or compel people not to use their gifts in our congregations, it reduces the power of the church and limits the ministry of the Holy Spirit which is the driving force of every church resulting in a powerless congregation.

You can say the Word, of course the Word! But can you teach the Word without the gift of teaching or pastoring? Don’t accept one and reject the other, for all the gifts are from one Spirit. In 1 Corinthians 12:4-11 “There are different kinds of spiritual gifts but the same Spirit; there are different forms of service but the same Lord; there are different workings but the same God who produces all of them in everyone. To each individual the manifestation of the Spirit is given for some benefit.

There's no way God will withdraw some of these gifts while we are still on earth “And, behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with power from on high. Luke 24:49. You may want to talk about “context” of the Scripture; this promise was for the apostles and for a time, and purpose and by no means does it extend to us. Jesus prayed in John 17:20-23

20 Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also which shall believe on me through their word; 21 That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me. 22 And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one: 23 “I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one; and that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me.”

Any Church without these gifts, every one of it cannot stand.  That you don't have it doesn't mean it's obsolete and with all due respect, do not argue what you do not understand.

Secondly, do not condemn it totally because some people abuse it, there are still godly people with these gifts bearing witness for Christ: God chooses to when the need arises. It’s clear when you say there’s no Apostle alive, of course the 12 Apostles and Paul have long gone to be with the Lord but has the Apostolic auction ceased? It’s like saying that the ministry of the Holy Spirit has ended.

‘Wherefore, brethren, covet to prophesy, and forbid not to speak with tongues’ 1 Corinthians 14:39.  If they have ceased, then why are we encouraged to strive for it? It's deception! God forbid.

While we are still on earth we are like children, we don't know what will be set before us when He will be revealed to us (when the perfection comes.)

‘Now faith, hope and love abides' these are futuristic they abides forever: Faith in God, hope in Jesus' return and establishment of the new heaven and the new earth for His love for us. These abides even after Jesus is revealed in His glory.

Conclusion: when I discuss with a ‘cessationist,' I advise not to be extreme about it but let us continue as one fold in Christ. Some of these are the devices of the enemy to plant disunity in the body of Christ.

And I also point people to 2 Peter 3:15-17. Let us not be carried away with the error of the lawless and lose our own stability. The Bible is the Word of God. Ask the Holy Spirit to help you. For the LORD giveth wisdom: out of his mouth cometh knowledge and understanding. Proverbs 2:6.

Dream Interpretation 101

God is all about communicating with you. Our value is found in His communication with us! Can you imagine the God of the universe, your creator, and your heavenly Father in Christ lowering Himself to speak to us in languages that bring life to us and more bonding with Him? Wow, this whets my appetite and ignites passion in me to position myself to hear Him daily. This phrase “God spoke to me” will never be familiar and lifeless to me! I will always be excited about my encounters with Him, cherish and steward them, and I pray the same for you!

If you are a Christian and part of this amazing, thrilling spiritual journey and walk with the Lord, you should know by now that God speaks to you in different ways, and dreams are one of His common ways! Why does God speak to us in our dreams? I don't know. It could be because He adores intimacy, quiet time with us when we are not bombarded by life's distractions. I love all of His communicational expressions with me because it is about Him and not the means itself He uses to speak to me through. Years ago, I was awakened to the avenue of dreams and was excited to learn how to unlock His love messages for me that He codes them in my own personal and unique language. So, I read the book, prayed for His visitations in my dreams, and got bunches of them (I am not a daily dreamer though), and they were awesome.

I believe the Lord wants to speak to you in your dreams, and He wants you to know what He is speaking to you about. Prophet Daniel understood this once and for all. It is God who gives the dream, and it is God who gives the interpretation of the dream. Yes, we can use Christian books, and ask others to help interpret for us, but it is HIM who reveals it. I found it sometimes weird when believers run to ask others to interpret their dreams without first praying about it and trying to get the meaning from this intimate God who longs for a relationship with them. God knows you better than anyone else! Honor Him by going to Him first to have Him clarify the meaning of your dreams (of course, not every dream is from Him, and I will tell you more about it).

Many say to me that they try to do this sincerely and wholeheartedly and go to the Lord first, but they don't feel they understand the meaning. Try more, and spend a longer time with Him. Maybe He wants to draw you closer to Him first because it is about Him before anything else. Even though you may feel blank, at least you honored Him, bonded with Him, gave Him a thrill of closeness, and pleased Him with your faith. Many times, I prayed about certain dreams I received myself and felt blank, but it felt so good that I communed with God and thanked Him for His visitations. And when I feel frustrated for not receiving the interpretation, I end my session by saying to the Lord, “I am not aware of the meaning yet, but I receive the meaning by faith.” Then my understanding catches up sooner or later.

I will not share with you the categories of dreams. You can learn more from experts like John Paul Jackson and others, but I will tell you one thing for sure. You may have a healing dream, deliverance dream, prophetic dream, futuristic dream, intercessory dream, etc. I want to focus on the steps of how you interpret your dreams and sometimes others. Are you excited? I learned those steps by myself, and they work for me. You may have a different recipe, and that's okay!

When receiving a dream:

1- Ask the Lord, “Is this dream from you or not?” Discerning the spirits is important, and recognizing the source is a must. Even if your dream was from your soul or the demonic realm, God may have a say about that if you ask him. But usually, I focus on clarifying if a dream is from God or not, as it is not worth spending my time digging deeper otherwise.

2- When God confirms to me that it is a divine dream, I then ask him if this dream is a message for me or those I saw. Most of the time, those dreams will be about you, but some of them are not, and clarifying the audience at this point is important before getting the interpretation. Even when the Lord tells me this dream is about me and for me, I partner with him creatively and tell him, “Awesome, I will get what you are saying to me, BUT Lord, can I also receive a word from this dream to those people you used in my dream?” Sometimes the Lord likes this and responds in my direction. It is a double win because I love serving others.

3- When I know this dream is about me, I tell the Lord my dream. It is a way of remembering it out loud and processing it with him. Dreams can be confusing sometimes, and many get distracted by the accessories around the dream and lose the real message. Why? Because sometimes people focus on getting a meaning for every single thing, and they could have meanings, but sometimes they don't. Do you remember the parable of the man who sold everything he had just to purchase the PEARL in a land filled with dirt, snakes, and scorpions? Focus on the pearl in your dream while being aware of the things around it, no problem! This should be your focus: to find Jesus when you are walking on the water. Having said that, I begin to follow the Holy Spirit to allow him to highlight to me the focus of my dream.

4- After that, I receive the meaning of it most of the time and ask the Lord to clarify how to receive this dream in my understanding because remember, your spirit already hosted it, and now you are catching up with your understanding to be fruitful and aware of invisible things. I may ask the Lord, “Do I pray about it? Or just receive it simply? Maybe ask intercessors to pray for me in this direction?” Don't just get the meaning of your dream; ask the Holy Spirit what to do with it because you want the fullness in your session with him and his visitation to you.

When You Doubt God

I believe doubting God is the highest form of temptation because He is your source of everything as a Christian, and now you are not sure about this good source you relied on many times. When I sin, I can come to the Lord and ask Him to forgive me, deliver me, and heal me. But when I doubt Him, I may struggle to come to Him for help. I have succeeded many times while in doubt to come to the Lord's presence and commune with Him until He restores my faith in His goodness once again, but often when I doubt, I feel disconnected, unable to approach Him! It depends on the level of spiritual warfare at that moment, I believe. Can you relate to this?

We remember together that doubting God's goodness and authority severed our relationship with Him and took us out of the garden of life, blessings, and calling. It was when Satan asked Eve: “Did God really say?”

Doubt is a powerful form of warfare, do not underestimate it. Jesus Christ was tempted by the devil with the “If you are” statements and He conquered them by the power of the Holy Spirit, and you can too. Once again, you may do this and that and still come to the Lord for repentance, correction, and prayer, but what if you are now doubting your source? Can you see it with me? Are you going through tough times of questioning the Lord and His promises? Are you coming into a subtle agreement with the enemy's doubtful statements? God is not angry at you or me, yet He delights when we trust Him fully, but He knows it is a journey and He is with us and for us.

I break the presence of doubt in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, and I curse the root, the landing strip, the foothold, the space, the opening, the question, the experience, the seeds, or whatever it was that made you come under doubting the goodness and the loving-kindness of the Lord for you. Amen!

If you want to doubt the Lord, doubt in His presence, do it with Him, be real, and ask your questions, but don't cut away the source because at the end of the day, it is only God that you have and you don't want to lose that. God is not intimidated by your doubts or questions.

Come before Him and conquer this temptation of doubt in His power because everyone may go through it.

Glory to God

The Book of Revelation

In the past I used to approach the book of Revelation with fear, with that feeling of uneasiness, anguish and gloom; trying to find the exact word to convey my exact state. I approached the book of Revelation in lowness of the spirit.

The book of Revelation I must say is one of the books that always send fear to the spines of many; believers and unbelievers alike due to the widely misconception of the book by people who lacked the knowledge of the mysteries of the kingdom of God or for the sole purpose of misleading the ones who have little or no knowledge of the Scripture.

Going through memory lane, the year 2000 was a very scary year and a lot of people thought the world was going to end in the year 2000 (New Millennium). Many sold their properties and gave the proceedings to the poor while many lost their possessions in fear yet we are here 23 years on. But in the positive shade, it helped many to return to Christ but we must not return to Christ for fear of the end time but for his love for us.

Having for the first time in my life read the book of Revelation with an open mind and with the help of the Holy Spirit, I was able to understand in detail the Revelations of the mysteries in every lines, verses and chapters of the book and I thank the Lord that at last the world will be judged for her wickedness.

Oh! How lovely to be at the marriage supper of the lamb! This is all I long for, to behold the beauty and the splendor of his majesty.

To know that there’s a set time for the enemy to be judged and destroyed is consoling. And to join all the prophets and the saints who were long asleep and those slain for the sake of the same testimony which I bear today is glorious and it’s a blessing to my soul.

No wonder the Apostle Paul wrote in Philippians 1:21 ‘for to me, living is Christ and dying is gain. And in Revelation 14:13 “And I heard a voice from heaven saying, Write this.; Blessed are the dead who from now on die in the Lord, ‘Yes says the Spirit, ‘they will rest from their labors, for their deeds follow them.’

The book of Revelation has blessed my life like every other book of the Bible. Although it’s the last book of the Bible, it’s the beginning of the new life in Christ. It brings an end to this fallen world and ushers hope for the new heaven and the new earth, it is soul refreshing.

It reveals the mysteries of the kingdom of God in its splendor and majesty and exalts God as the righteous judge He is.  And that which was revealed to the Apostle John but instructed not to be written, I am sure is our little surprise package when we see Him face to face.

In the beginning chapters, our Lord Jesus forewarned the Seven Churches in Asia and also encouraged them. He applauded their good works and exposed their sins and urged them to repent, reminding them of the glory that awaits those that conquered.

It’s a wonderful feeling of safety to know that you have been saved from damnation by the blood of the lamb; your name is boldly written in the book of life and there’s nothing in this world that can pluck you from his hand… In John 17: 12 Jesus prayed ‘While I was with them, I protected them in your name that you have given me. I guarded them, and not one of them was lost except the one destined to be lost, so that the scripture might be fulfilled.

If our hope is of this world we are of all men most miserable’ Apostle Paul wrote. We have hope that transcends beyond time and season; our hope is in the Son. I encourage believers to have a clearer view of our inheritance in Christ. It’s awesome to know that there’s nothing on earth to be compared to the glory that awaits us in heaven and this alone encourages us to stand trials and temptations, it ushers the boldness to gladly lay down our necks for the sword; this was the strength of the Prophets and the Apostles those who were slain for the sake of the gospel.

At the face of death you see Christ standing before you to welcome you home into the joy, the peace, the fulfillment that life denied you of: that you’ll long to die.

The book of Revelation is reassuring, soul refreshing, consoling and comforting. No true believer would be scared or afraid of the end time, when God will pour out the cup of His wrath to the nations of the world because we have been redeemed by the blood of the lamb.

Having this understanding, I earnestly pray for God's judgment to be nearer because the blood of the slain saints are eagerly waiting for the holy vengeance of God and God in His mercy and grace have set an appointed time, waiting for more of His children to return home. If you have not, please make that decision now.

Lastly, the book of Revelation ignites the zeal for evangelism, to bring many to the saving knowledge of Christ like never before so that we all will be saved in the perilous time and to draw God’s judgment on the devil and death very near.

The expression of God's throne and the kingdom of heaven is more than minds can imagine and I can’t wait to behold it. I pray for the grace to hold on and to continue in His love till my last breath to sing Hallelujah with the hosts of heaven.

No true believer ought to be terrified by the words of the visions except they are not on the right standing and now is the time to make things right, tomorrow maybe too late.

Jesus said to the Seven Churches, I see and know your works, and I am coming with my reward. In chapter 22:14 ‘Blessed are those who wash their robes, so that they will have the right to the tree of life and may enter the city by gates.

I pray that the light of righteousness will shine upon you now and forever. Amen.

Never Give Up

Someone pronounced death over you and your circumstances.  “Give up, give in, stop trying, stop hoping, you can see that there is no way out for you.”  They told you your desire will never be fulfilled.  That is what they told Jairus.  He had been waiting as patiently as possible, given the circumstances.  Let’s face it.  In dire emergencies like this it is hard to keep your composure.  His daughter was so sick she was literally at death’s door.  He needed Jesus to work one of those miracles.  But, others had needs just as dire as his own.  Jesus agreed to come and help his daughter but the stops to help those others were delaying their journey.  His mind began to race, “What if we do not arrive in time, can Jesus help if she dies?” His thoughts were interrupted by a man calling his name.  As Jairus turned to look he recognized one of his workers.  The man reported that his daughter already died, it was too late.  He felt as if the breath had been knocked out of him.  Just as his world started to spin he heard Jesus say, “do not be afraid, only believe.”

Outside voices were trying to sink Jairus into despair.   To make matters worse, Jesus was interrupted while his daughter’s life was hanging in the balance.  I can only imagine his inner voice screaming anxiously.  Can you relate?  You know God began to work on your behalf but then there was silence.  A moment of apparent inactivity.  It looked like God moved on.  You can see him working in other situations, for other people.  All the while your situation seems like it is getting worse.  But, Jesus wants you to know something.  This is what he said to Jairus: “Don’t be afraid. Just have faith, and she will be healed.” (Luke 8:50).

There is a really important point to be made by Jesus’ reassurance.  He did not say “don’t worry I have the power to raise the dead.”  Jesus did not confirm the report of death because he had already begun working on the situation.  When you thought he stopped moving on your behalf you were tricked by the appearance of things.  God tells us to walk by faith and not by sight.  There is more to you and your life’s journey than you are currently perceiving.  Your circumstances do not have the final say.  He is sovereign over all things.  When you trust his authority and love he can make your experience a billboard for his character and power.

There is no work that God starts but fails to complete.  He said he will finish the work he started in you.  So do not be discouraged.  In the words of David: “Take charge! Take heart! Don’t be anxious or get discouraged. God, my God, is with you in this; he won’t walk off and leave you in the lurch. He’s at your side until every last detail is completed for conducting the worship of God” (1Chronicles 28:20 The Message Bible).  David was talking to his son about a job he had to do.  You have a job to do also.  Renew your mind as many times as it takes. Repeat what Jesus said to Jairus. Keep rehearsing it, “don’t be afraid, just have faith.”  God will fulfill his purpose in your life!  Things are not always what they seem.  Don’t be afraid, only believe.

Prophetic Word for the month of Adar 5783 / March 2023

God is healing many from mild to strong depressions this month, the Lord is setting YOU free and putting you on a new path. I hear in my spirit the word RE-ALIGNED, this is what it will feel like to you. The Lord is reminding me of this beautiful and powerful verse in Psalm 23:3 “He restores my soul; He leads me in the paths of righteousness For His name’s sake.” For some, that verse will be their verse of the year, it will be a time of rehabilitation, it is going to be progress and a process, so be encouraged, do NOT faint because every day the Lord will add more strength, refreshment, and joy to you.

I also sense the INVITE of the Lord for us to reach out to people and believers going through their dark night of the soul and minister to them. Yeshua will be there with you so close to their brokenness and it will be a miracle in motion to them. It will be a different and unique experience for each minister and as Kathryn Kuhlman said once: “God is not looking for silver or gold vessels, but for yielded vessels”. Jesus wants your availability only and he will do the rest. Let's make it simple and not complicate the power of God because it flows in the context of relationships, he is a relational God!

If you've been struggling with depression, sadness, mental health, a soul vexing, hopelessness, or like, I take my authority in Christ and I annihilate those foes and render them as nothing. Receive your freedom and healing!

It is your SPRING time, winter is gone. Amen

Process Before Manifestation

I have observed that a large proportion of people in this generation attempt to manifest results in diverse aspects of life without following due process. This made me realize how much we have neglected the fact that Jehovah is a God of processes. We often assume that as Christians, having God permits us to ignore or neglect key life principles.

Jesus, despite being the Son of God, came into the world and subjected himself to training and preparation before he became the Saviour of the world (Luke 2:46-52). If Jesus had to subject himself to training to become the Messiah, why shouldn’t we follow His example? As Christians, we should not aspire to jump straight into glory, power, and success ill-prepared. Can a baby born today begin to run immediately? Definitely not!

Skipping processes is akin to skipping classes required to equip and prepare you for your life’s purpose. A seed planted in the ground today will not begin to produce fruits immediately; it takes time to grow and mature. It is the will of God for all to manifest; however, it must be done in due season.
