Impress Potential Buyers.

In recent music history, there was an artist, whose South African fans believed him to be dead.
This singer’s popularity in that isolated country went unnoticed, and the royalties from hundreds of thousands of his albums failed to make their way back to the United States.

It is a stark reminder that our sustenance does not come from earthly things like bread, but rather from the spiritual words that flow from the mouth of God.
As we navigate the challenges of life, we find solace in the promise that “whoever believes in me, as Scripture has said, rivers of living water will flow from within them.”

Consider the analogy of selling a house.
When preparing to sell, we go above and beyond, fixing things and addressing neglected issues to impress potential buyers.
Similarly, in our obedience to God’s way and strategy, we are called to walk with Him in the garden, in the cool of the day, experiencing a whole new depth where He imparts deeper revelation-secrets of His promises.

At times, it may seem like everything is going wrong.
Yet, it is in these moments of apparent chaos that our light can shine brightest.
Our obedience and alignment with God’s plan can cause others to see us and themselves in a new light.

A prophetic word emerges, signalling a ferocious eviction of the enemy from territories it has occupied in the lives of believers.
It is a swift deliverance, a decisive shift orchestrated by the divine.
The message is clear:
the enemy is being banished, making way for a renewed sense of purpose and freedom in the lives of God’s people.

The Lord speaks with urgency, encouraging us to recognize the significance of the mountain-moving movements taking place.
These endeavours are grander than we realize, and the voice of the Lord echoes, “It’s so much bigger than you think.”
As we partner with Him, holding what may seem like a mere seed, we are called to build a mighty oak.

Now, more than ever, the pressure is on us to rise up and lead the way into a land of fertile ideas.
The divine call is to speak your mind, to heed the divine promptings and let the power of God’s truth guide your actions.

We continue the journey ahead with open hearts, acknowledging that our sustenance comes from the spiritual words that flow from the mouth of God.
May God lead us to a place of profound revelation and purpose.

A realm where we walk in the fullness of all that God has ordained for us in this hour.

The path ahead may appear narrow, and the challenges may seem daunting, but rest assured, it leads to life.
We are called to burn with a first-love fire, a passion that emanates from the very core of our being.

In this pivotal moment, we can carry His Glory.
It is a time of great deliverance.
The refining fire of the Lord is at work.
The Lord is going deeper still; God is raising us up to life.

We, the beautiful Bride of Christ, are being refined for a purpose.
We must retain our “Mojo,” our vitality in the Spirit.
This is God’s plan for our healing, a transition to birthing and building.

Drawing inspiration from Romans chapter 8 verse 16, we are reminded of our identity as children of God, heirs with Christ.
Our values are rooted in our faith, and in this journey, we encounter the concept of “retro”,
old ideas introduced in new ways, reflecting the timeless truths of our faith in contemporary expressions.

When God thunders “BEGIN AGAIN,”
it signifies the redemption of time, bringing forth supernatural restoration, of His spoken promises.
We are called to climb the highest mountains, saying “Yes” to His call, and in doing so, we open ourselves to deep healing.

In the ‘School of the Mouth,’ we learn the significance of what comes out of our hearts and mouths.
As Matthew 12:34 reminds us, “For out of the heart, the mouth speaks.”
Saying “Yes” to God’s call involves a transformative process, a journey from ignorance to revelation, and a realization of who Jesus truly is.

In our resistance to the devil, we employ the powerful argument of the Cross, rooted in the truth of God’s Word.
As we wait upon God, lingering in His presence, we receive divine instructions.
The heart of God warns us against eagerness to rush, urging us to position ourselves and patiently receive His guidance.

Therefore, let us embrace this divine journey with open hearts, knowing that God is refining us for a purpose.
May we, walk in the fullness of our calling, bringing forth the Glory of the Lord in every step.

Garden of Good Times

The rise of Hillsong and Planetshaker Churches in Australia, a testament to the power of the fire- filled Upper Room experience.  Just as Peter surfaced full of fire, a potent crop of 3000 souls was reaped.
Like the simplicity of seeking help, akin to picking up our mobile phones and ringing the auto handyperson.
Now, let us heed the words of a communication of mending, restoration, and exculpation from our faithful brokers.
” Waterfalls of refreshment” are promised to your hearts and souls. Do not give up, for God has heard your cries, and a significant advance is imminent.
In this season of challenges, let us be reminded of Jesus on the Cross, uttering,” Father, forgive them.”
Consider the profound impact of the wrongdoers’ prayer, the transformative moment when we declare our faith.
May you have a heart filled with gratefulness and adaptability, declaring proudly,” I’m better now!”
In the natural world, we witness the unfolding of natural disasters.
The magnitude of these events serves as a stark memorial of the fragility of life.
Apostle Paul, knew he had fought the good fight.
Someone witnessed that a follow- up visit to the oncologist brought news that the vivisection showed no sign of cancer.
This disclosure marked a turning point, much like the symbolism of the last Adam, Jesus, bringing us back into the tropical,
” Garden of Good Times.”
Life is full of unanticipated” yes” moments, where joy and protestation come suddenly.  occasionally, the answer is right in front of us, to be discovered.
Could it be that Paul’s reference to the” frustrated earth” was a mindfulness that the  noble freedom of the children of God was imminent,  motioning the emancipation of creation from decay into the splendid freedom of God’s children?
Amidst these contemplations, one stands out — the presence of God is real, disbanding fear and breeding a sense of peace that surpasses understanding.
As we navigate through the fog that the adversary has cast to hamper clarity, let us lift in high praise, entering a fresh investment in perceptiveness.
A new generation is rising, thrusting the mountain with clean hands and pure hearts, adorned with heavenly perceptiveness not endured before as in Psalm 24.
With a heart attuned to the weariness we may be feeling amidst the ongoing battles of life.
As I look around, I see souls feeling tired, their spirits fatigued by the grim warfare we encounter.
Some peer upon the foundations we have laid, stewing that the intensity of the battle may be introducing cracks into what God has spoken over our lives.
You may wonder, why is this passing?
It’s an assignation to allow your inner capacity to tap into the wellspring of strength and adaptability that lies within.
Reflecting on the origins of spiritual movements, we find that they frequently began with a small group of devoted individuals,
Bartleman speaks of a humble gathering at Azusa, a bare dozen saints, and  latterly, the Los Angeles Times reports a different crowd, marking the birth of a spiritual movement.
There are moments when the idea of counting solely on our capacities may be tempting, but let me assure you, the calculation is inviting, true metamorphosis cannot be without God.
Our provocation, I believe, is at its peak when we act in service to others rather than for ourselves.
King Jehoshaphat knew this well when he transferred out a chorus to sing praise to God in front of his army.
It was an act to offset the complaints and negativity around them, an important demonstration of the transformative power of praise.
Just as a choir sings in accord, let us rise above complaints, embracing gratefulness and praise.
May we find strength in our weariness.

A Large Jar of Oil

Everyone should share their testimony,

Our lives have been transformed in ways that words can hardly capture.
We can discover the power of speech, realizing that the words we utter carry weight beyond our comprehension.
Every day, we can wake up with gratitude, not knowing what divine wonders God has in store for us.

Our journeys can lead us to a deep exploration of character, and our relationship with the Lord became an unbreakable bond.
The joy that fills our heart is indescribable, for we have witnessed the transformative power of surrendering to the Holy Spirit in the fiery room of prayer.
It is a relational experience that goes beyond words, a communion that strengthens and empowers.

I have come to understand that we are beings operating outside the constraints of time, with eternity placed in our hearts.
As multidimensional beings, we are called to navigate this world with a perspective that transcends the limits of the temporal.

In a moment of spiritual revelation, a prophet saw a vision of a super-sized jug being poured, and from it flowed an abundance of oil.
It became clear to me that with God by our side, victory is inevitable. Even in moments when it seems like life is spinning out of control, we can emerge triumphant.

Yet, too often, we underestimate the omnipresence of God in our lives.
The prophets among us cherish the beauty of His presence, recognizing that His hand is at work even when unseen.

Life, at times, may make us feel different, as if something is amiss.
Yet, these moments are often the prelude to birthing a vision or dream that has been growing within us.
Embrace the discomfort, for it heralds the arrival of something extraordinary.

In our journey, we encounter individuals of influence, from govt officials to security agents, and the realization dawns upon us that God’s hand is not confined by status or titles.
He works through the ordinary and the extraordinary alike.

In moments of adversity, prayer becomes our refuge, demonstrating that with God, we can overcome any obstacle.

Love and blessings abound, as the voice of the divine whispers,
“It’s so much bigger than you think.”
The trials we face are part of a grand design, and as we build with the Lord, the purpose becomes clearer.

We find ourselves in a season of upheaval and change, akin to the bones coming together in Ezekiel 37.
It is time to release the Ruach, the breath of God, into the army that stands before us.

As we encounter Jesus in worship, we position ourselves to catch the wind of the Holy Spirit, receiving His refreshing, healing, and empowerment.
This propels us forward into the destiny that God has ordained for each of us.

In conclusion, our journey takes us from a disinterested observer to a fervent believer.
Church, once a place of snacks and socializing, has become a sanctuary for spiritual nourishment.
My hope is that each of you finds the transformative power of surrender, the joy of divine encounters, and the strength to overcome life’s challenges.

Life has a way of presenting challenges that test the very fabric of our existence.
One such challenge confronted my family when we found ourselves unable to afford the necessary surgery for a beloved member—our cherished pet.
The financial strain weighed heavy on our hearts, and the difficult decision of potentially having him put to sleep loomed over us, breaking our hearts.

His promise to catapult us into greater dimensions, dimensions we couldn’t even fathom, became a source of hope and strength.

One such story that left an indelible mark on our hearts was that of Kayla, enduring unspeakable atrocities under the cruel hands of ISIS. Her resilience and unwavering faith in the face of torture and brutality spoke volumes about the human spirit’s capacity to withstand the darkest of times.

As we navigate the complexities of life, we are reminded of the divine power that resides within us.
It is a power that calls us to take dominion and govern, ushering in an era where we no longer succumb to the tactics of the enemy but stand fortified in the secret place, close to Him and immersed in His Word.

Let us embrace the messiness and wonder that life brings.
Together, let us affirm Soli Deo Gloria – glory to God alone.
As we face an ever-changing world, may we stand firm, knowing that the flame within us cannot be extinguished.
