Garden of Good Times

Leave a reply

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

Leave a reply

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.

Revival in a Day

Leave a reply

I want to take you back to the moment when you first heard that voice – a voice that resonated with divine purpose and set in motion a series of events that would change your life forever.
In the face of challenges, you uttered, “No problem!” and clung to the belief that a higher power was orchestrating divine set-ups and encounters.
The scripture spoke to your situation, promising a fresh baptism of the Spirit and fire of love, an exponential increase that could be felt deep within.

“They were just so good to me,” you recall, echoing the sentiment of gratitude for the unexpected blessings and encounters that have graced your journey.
The promise of doubled inheritances and the restoration of broken hearts and marriages fills the air with hope and anticipation.

As you navigated the intricate workings of motivation, you chose to let others go their way, declaring that it is their road, be it a low or high one.
And in this declaration, you found rescue and fruitfulness, making it indeed a not-so-bad day’s work for all involved.

And here you stand, having followed your heart, and believed in your idea, wielding a position of power where others must play by your rules.
Your “Will” dictates the distribution of blessings.

Reflecting on the last 25 years as Christians, we’ve witnessed and heard about revivals across various locations.

The terminology surrounding these revivals often includes start and finish dates, attempting to measure their duration.

The Lord has revealed that in your comeback, you are destined to emerge stronger in the revelation of His Word.
I declare that a new season awaits you—a season of profound revelation and a deepening understanding of the power inherent in His Word.

Let us draw inspiration from the story of Joseph, who, after the departure of the wise men, received divine guidance through angels in a dream.
These heavenly messengers imparted information that led Joseph towards a new direction, not just for himself but for the future of his family.
In this moment, envision your life as a well-watered garden, flourishing with the wisdom and guidance bestowed upon you by the Almighty.

As Joseph received a message to make his own, so too are you being given a divine message to carry forward.
It is a message filled with the richness of God’s Word.

Consider the story of Peter who, through a spiritual encounter with God, was instructed to change his attitude towards the Gentiles. Amidst this spiritual language and vision, a knock at the door brought an unexpected turn of events—a group of men requesting him to speak at the house of a Gentile.
Embracing this divine invitation, he found himself in a revival the very next day.
In your journey, be open to the unexpected twists and turns orchestrated by the divine, for they may lead to a revival in your own life.

Recently, I encountered someone whose life has taken a turn for the better.
Even during challenges, there is a noticeable difference in the way she carries herself.
It’s as if she has been adorned with a regal destiny—an effect you might liken to a gold medal.
The normal has become abnormal, showcasing the extraordinary work of God’s grace in her life.

As we navigate the complexities of our individual journeys, let us hold fast to the promise that the Lord is releasing an abundance of revelation regarding His Word.
Embrace the unexpected, change your attitude in alignment with His will, and be prepared for the revival that awaits you.

The Lord declares, ‘Dreams are coming to pass SUDDENLY.’

In this divine proclamation, the Lord assures us that He has saved the best until last.
Promotion and favour are cascading upon people who have wholeheartedly said, “YES,” and are walking faithfully in His ways. The revivalists among us are now being called forth.
You have been prepared for such a time as this.
Do not hide, for now is the time to ARISE and SHINE.
As you are called forth, know that you have been equipped with ALL that you need to accomplish ALL that He is asking you to do in your place of influence.

His abundance flows within you, and you carry the richness of His grace and favour.
May you be surrounded by the generosity of others, both spiritually and materially.

The book of Hebrews reminds us that God calls another day “Today.”

Today, you were introduced to the Son of God Himself.
Before this divine encounter, limits held you in check, and opposition stood unified in its attempt to thwart your progress.
But now, a new era has dawned.

In the journey of faith, some may find themselves growing bored with revival.
This boredom often arises when individuals cease to receive a touch from God, or if they do experience a touch from heaven, they consider it sufficient and move on, ceasing to enter His presence continually.

May you embrace this divine call to arise, shine, and enter a season of unprecedented favour and expansion.
May the wells of His presence overflow in your life, and may you walk boldly in the assignments appointed for you.
