Godly Reminders 2

Godly Reminders 2

The Lord loves faithfulness, commitment and righteousness. We must constantly remember that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him. Seeking Him involves pleasing Him always and spending time in prayer. It is simply not enough to say ” I have faith” and be idle and disobedient. We must show our faith by imitating Christ and living the way He lived. Christ demonstrated His faith by complete obedience and prayer. We should too.

You have loved righteousness and hated wickedness; therefore God, your God, has set you above your companions by anointing you with the oil of joy.”

When we imitate Christ and think and act like Jesus, God will also anoint us with power and the oil of joy. The anointing will give life to our faith and break yokes. May God give us the grace to never get distracted and loose focus so that we can arrive at the mountaintop of Christian maturity.

You Allowed It

You Allowed It

Revelations And Messages 7

7: You Allowed It

The Lord once said to me, ‘ A spell was cast upon you and you allowed it.’ That was when I was still very young in the Lord and His ways. The Lord had told me I would go through serious trials, tests and battles. The Lord subsequently taught my fingers to fight and make war until I learnt how to manifest His glory. I know now, how to pray and experience His manifest presence.

When I am filled with His Spirit, I experience certain things in my physical body. For the past 26 years, it’s been the same physical signs that I feel when my Spirit is filled with His presence. It is only the Lord that can train us and teach us effectively, on how to pray and get result. We must be led by His Spirit and receive counsel and direction.

The LORD is a man of war: the LORD is his name. Exodus 15:3 KJV

The LORD is a warrior; the LORD is his name. Exodus 15:3 NIV

Praise be to the LORD my Rock, who trains my hands for war, my fingers for battle. Psalm 144:1

When His glory manifests, I see Him in form of clouds. The cloud usually descends from heaven. He is inside the cloud and sometimes the cloud opens for me to see Him. However, most of the time, I just see the cloud and He talks from inside the cloud. He comes with clouds of white, white and blue, purple, and gold. He has told me the meaning of the different colors of the cloud.

My inner garments instantly change to whatever color of cloud He appears in. My spiritual sandals also take up that same color. Sometimes the color of my spiritual hair also changes to the color of the cloud if the cloud is gold. My inner hair becomes sparkling gold. I had to accept His corrections and apply them like a warrior before knowing Him and His glory.

The Lord is a warrior and fighter and wants His children to become very fierce warriors. He hates docility. How can you be a victorious fighter if you have never been trained in the battle field of life? Life is a battle field and only the tested, brave and persistent emerge victorious.

The Lord was not blaming me, He was just letting me know that we should actively resist evil by engaging in hot fervent prayers. When you have the Lord of Lords and powers as your father, every power is available to you. The devil uses his agents to put spells on us to test our faith. The spell finds a space, lands and grows if our faith and walk with God is not yet up to His standard – mature

Like a fluttering sparrow or a darting swallow, an undeserved curse does not come to rest. Proverbs 26:2

How can I curse those whom God has not cursed? How can I denounce those whom the LORD has not denounced? Numbers 23:8

The king’s heart is in the hand of the LORD, as the rivers of water: he turneth it whithersoever he will. Proverbs 21:1

The fearful and timid know only one thing – defeat. Get rid of childish fears, pick up your golden swords and fight. Fight until you win – that was how the Lord dealt with me and He is dealing with all His children that way. The Lord was not soft on me, He was very tough but I will call that, ‘tough love.’ When I was in my darkest battle, He said to me, ‘I will console you.’ That word and promise kept me going and He has started consoling me.

Do not be afraid of what you are about to suffer. I tell you, the devil will put some of you in prison to test you, and you will suffer persecution for ten days. Be faithful, even to the point of death, and I will give you life as your victor’s crown. Revelations 2:10

There is always light at the end of every tunnel. We must actively fight and participate in every battle that the Lord has called us to. No whimpering, murmuring, blaming or complaining. When called to battle, rise up with your weapons and swords, obediently, and fight even if it means that you pray several hours at night. Just fight. Fight even to the point of death – that is more honorable than not fighting at all.

Who is he who speaks and it comes to pass,

When the Lord has not commanded it? Is it not from the mouth of the Most High

That woe and well-being proceed (Lamentations 3:37 – 3:38 NKJV)

Brethren, what evil are you allowing in your lives today? The victory is within you if you can rise up like a warrior and approach Gods throne for a change. He does not want you to put up with it, He wants to help you. However, ultimately, He wants you to be constantly filled with His Spirit. When you are filled and covered with His hedge or protection, you will be empowered to win every battle.

If you are under fire from the camp of the enemy and adversary, you have a deliverer and saviour – Jesus. He is challenging you today, to rise up in faith, prayer and persistence until you experience victory and deliverance. Have the faith of a Lion and pray like a tiger. Tear the enemy in pieces with the power of the Lord, like a tiger until the enemy dissolves into nothingness.

Don’t look back or pity the enemy, the enemy is not pitying you. Fight to finish and win. The battle line was drawn even before you were born – you did not draw it so don’t run away because even if you run away, the battle will be there, waiting for you, growing wilder and fiercer, till it overpowers you. Battle is an inevitable part of life.

May the Lord give you a Lions heart to fight on your knees and persist until you are victorious. After victory comes the crown of life, righteousness and peace.

The Lord Is Our Weapon And Battle Axe

The Lord Is Our Weapon And Battle Axe

The Lord Is Our Weapon And Battle Axe

The wicked

Proudly glory in their

Powers

They bend their bows

And invoke their demons

On unsuspecting

Innocent victims

But the Lord

is our refuge

And strength

The Lord hates evil

He hates the wicked

And those who love violence

He will judge

And avenge

Because

He loves justice

The righteous will

See His face

And taste His glory

Psalm 11

For the director of music. Of David.

1 In the Lord I take refuge.
    How then can you say to me:
    “Flee like a bird to your mountain.
2 For look, the wicked bend their bows;
    they set their arrows against the strings
to shoot from the shadows
    at the upright in heart.
3 When the foundations are being destroyed,
    what can the righteous do?”

4 The Lord is in his holy temple;
    the Lord is on his heavenly throne.
He observes everyone on earth;
    his eyes examine them.
5 The Lord examines the righteous,
    but the wicked, those who love violence,
    he hates with a passion.
6 On the wicked he will rain
    fiery coals and burning sulfur;
    a scorching wind will be their lot.

7 For the Lord is righteous,
    he loves justice;
    the upright will see his face.

Believing And Praying

Believing And Praying

You must believe and you must also pray. Believing and having faith without spending time in prayer is a great deception. Jesus had super faith, but He also prayed. Paul had super faith but he also prayed. Having faith and a through understanding of your inheritance in Christ does not mean that you should not spent time in prayer.

Seeking God’s face and waiting upon Him for grace, mercy and peace to be yours in full measure is a must. It is the praying that will activate the inheritance. You start with faith, go on to obedience, add prayer and persist or press on with patience. Paul prayed and activated his inheritance.

May mercy, peace, and love be yours in full measure. Jude 1:2

Faith without action is dead. Faith without obedience and prayer is dead. Let the prophets and apostles be your constant example. Paul said, ‘ imitate me as I imitate Christ.’

The whole group was pleased with the apostles’ proposal, so they chose Stephen, a man full of faith and the Holy Spirit, and Philip, Prochorus, Nicanor, Timon, Parmenas, and Nicolaus, a Gentile from Antioch who had earlier been converted to Judaism. Acts 6:5

Faith is stationary while the Holy Spirit moves and performs. You must be filled with faith and the Holy Spirit. If you are filled with faith without being filled with the Holy Spirit, you have not achieved much. The objective, purpose and end result of faith is to be filled with the Holy Spirit.

You must be purpose driven and not loose focus. Faith for the sake of faith without tasting the reality of the Holy Spirit and being filled with love is a fantasy. Let your faith take you to maturity and the mountain top of God’s glory without distractions. Get to the mountain top because that should be the end result of your faith.

It is obedience, prayer, praise, worship and praise that will give life to your faith. Faith does not work alone. It is multidimensional and works with many variables. Do not rely on your faith alone but pray until you experience the manifest presence of God. When you bask in His glory is when you know that your faith has life.

Your faith must be a constant reality. The reality is the manifest presence of God. Any faith that has not brought down God’s glory is not a mature faith. Faith must become tangible and that tangibility is the glory of God.

Your faith combined with obedience is what will take you to heaven and it is also what will make you experience heaven on earth. The reality of the Holy Spirit is heaven on earth. The Kingdom of God is within us, may He make that Kingdom a tangible reality. May we all persist until we taste His glory, daily.

You Will See Those Egyptians No More

You Will See Those Egyptians No More

Moses answered the people, “Do not be afraid. Stand firm and you will see the deliverance the LORD will bring you today. The Egyptians you see today you will never see again. Exodus 14:13

Stand Firm

This Scripture is just so wonderful to our Spirits. We are commanded to stand firm. We must stand firm in the unyielding belief and foundation that the blood of Jesus has set us free. We are free – no contractions. The enemy will only try to bully us into thinking that we are still slaves of sin, death and punishments but we are not. We only need to grow in our redemption, love, hope and faith

We are redeemed, forgiven, free children of the most high God. That is why we will go to heaven when we die. We are already citizens of heaven and those who are filled with His Spirit experience heaven every day. His presence is Heaven and brings heaven to reality. The kingdom of God is within us but we will not experience that reality if we are not constantly filled with His glory.

We are free. If we were not free from our sins or forgiven, we would not look forward to heaven. The fact that we believe that we will go to heaven means that we have acknowledged that we are forgiven and do not have to pay for our sins in hell, purgatory or any other place.

We are healed by the punishment he suffered,

made whole by the blows he received. Isaiah 53:5

Stand firm in your faith and belief. Our sins and punishments were cancelled by the punishments that Jesus suffered on the cross for us. We do not have to pay twice. Do not let the devil rob you by making you think you have to pay again, you do not. Fight till the end and hold on till the end in unwavering conviction, expectation and hope. Cling to the healthy word of God that sets your soul free from lies and deception. Let His life giving words dwell richly in you.

Do not believe that you will pay in purgatory – that means you have rejected the sacrifice of Jesus and the power of His precious blood. When you try to pay for your sins by yourself you end up rejecting grace and embracing death. You can never pay for your sins or achieve salvation by your own efforts, punishments and blood. Embrace the blood of Jesus and believe in His eternal redemption.

Do not be afraid

Do not be afraid. The devil will try to overwhelm you with so many red seas and giants. He will try to make you fear and doubt your redemption but do not be afraid. Hold your peace and believe in God’s saving grace that has set you free and sets you free. Reject doubt and fear and trust in Him who loved you so much and sent His son to die in your place.

You will see the deliverance of the Lord

As you trust in God and cling to His word in faith, persistence, praise and obedience, you will see the deliverance of the Lord. Never give up on God and on your faith. Hold on to God’s word and mercy even with your dying breath. He is the deliverer and will never disappoint those who have faith in Him and cling to Him for help.

You will see the Egyptians no more

The enemies, afflictions, problems and punishments you see, you will see them no more as you worship Him, thank Him, praise Him and rejoice in Him. Do not look at the enemy but at the power of God and the blood of Jesus. Focus on His ability and do not focus on self and the ability of self. The ability of self is a mirage and a delusion. Every good and perfect present comes from God.

Realize the bigness of God and the littleness of your problems. As you grow in faith and dependence on God – humbly praying for the infilling of the Holy Spirit, you will see those Egyptians and giants no more. All you will see will be the glory of God.

The LORD has promised that he himself will be a wall of fire around the city to protect it and that he will live there in all his glory.” Zechariah 2:5

He will dwell in you in all His glory. Amen.

Break The Power Of The Wicked

Great God Jehovah

Deliver the oppressed

Afflicted

Mighty deliverer

Our hope is in you

We look up to you

And Holy Ghost fire

Psalm 10

1 Why, Lord, do you stand far off?
    Why do you hide yourself in times of trouble?

2 In his arrogance the wicked man hunts down the weak,
    who are caught in the schemes he devises.
3 He boasts about the cravings of his heart;
    he blesses the greedy and reviles the Lord.
4 In his pride the wicked man does not seek him;
    in all his thoughts there is no room for God.
5 His ways are always prosperous;
    your laws are rejected by him;
    he sneers at all his enemies.
6 He says to himself, “Nothing will ever shake me.”
    He swears, “No one will ever do me harm.”

7 His mouth is full of lies and threats;
    trouble and evil are under his tongue.
8 He lies in wait near the villages;
    from ambush he murders the innocent.
His eyes watch in secret for his victims;
9     like a lion in cover he lies in wait.
He lies in wait to catch the helpless;
    he catches the helpless and drags them off in his net.
10 His victims are crushed, they collapse;
    they fall under his strength.
11 He says to himself, “God will never notice;
    he covers his face and never sees.”

12 Arise, Lord! Lift up your hand, O God.
    Do not forget the helpless.
13 Why does the wicked man revile God?
    Why does he say to himself,
    “He won’t call me to account”?
14 But you, God, see the trouble of the afflicted;
    you consider their grief and take it in hand.
The victims commit themselves to you;
    you are the helper of the fatherless.
15 Break the arm of the wicked man;
    call the evildoer to account for his wickedness
    that would not otherwise be found out.

16 The Lord is King for ever and ever;
    the nations will perish from his land.
17 You, Lord, hear the desire of the afflicted;
    you encourage them, and you listen to their cry,
18 defending the fatherless and the oppressed,
    so that mere earthly mortals
    will never again strike terror.

Every Knee Must Bow

Every Knee Must Bow

That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth, and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father (Philippians 2:10 – 2:11 NKJV)

When the power of God is present, every knee must bow. Nothing in all of creation can resist or disobey the power of God. Those who have learnt the secret of the manifest presence of God know the reality of all knees and powers bowing at the name of Jesus.

All power belongs to Jesus and He has authority over death and the grave. When you call His name and He appears spiritually, powers tremble, bow, flee and dissolve at His glory. They cannot withstand the fire emanating from Him. They must bow and flee.

He Has Activities

He Has Activities

The Spirit Of The Lord

18: He has activities

How much greater is the glory that belongs to the activity of the Spirit! 2 Corinthians 3:8

The activity of the Holy Spirit is always good. He was the one that was at work with Jesus, Moses, Joseph, Abraham and the Apostles.

The activities of the Holy Spirit are very many but I will mention some of them. He is the one that does creative work. He heals and delivers, performs miracles, and anoints men into ministry.

He purifies and sustains. He produces the fruits of the Holy Spirit and gives wisdom, understanding, revelation, wisdom, life, truth, grace, love, mercy, comfort, endurance, and fear of the Lord. He did all the great works through the prophets of old. He was with Jesus and had to come upon Jesus for Jesus to start, perfect, fulfill and complete His ministry.

Amazingly, the Bible talks about the Spirit of mercy and prayer. He is the Spirit of mercy and prayer. It is the Holy Spirit that silently instructs and enables men to pray and show mercy. He is also the source and transmitter of mercy on earth from the throne of grace. He makes mercy and glory available here on earth. He is the source and channel of glory and honor and makes men vessels of honor. Glory to God!

The Spirit of the LORD will rest on him– the Spirit of wisdom and of understanding, the Spirit of counsel and of might, the Spirit of the knowledge and fear of the LORD. Isiah 11:2

I will fill the descendants of David and the other people of Jerusalem with the spirit of mercy and the spirit of prayer. They will look at the one whom they stabbed to death, and they will mourn for him like those who mourn for an only child. They will mourn bitterly, like those who have lost their first-born son. Zechariah 12:10

He was with the apostles and did great and mighty works in the acts of the apostles. Some people have even argued and suggested that acts of the apostles be renamed acts of the Holy Spirit. He was the one behind the scenes, performing wonders and spreading the gospel like wild fire. He is not wild but His love and mercy are wild and glorious.

He is the head of the Church on earth and is waiting for people who recognize His place, ministry, work, glory and activities to wait upon Him for fresh fire. With constant, daily, fresh, fire and anointing, we can do the mighty works of Jesus. Remember it’s a promise by Jesus.

May we constantly recognize the ministry and activities of the Holy Spirit, our Lord on earth. May we also always invite Him to take His place in our lives, among us and in the Church of Jesus Christ.

Day By Day

Day By Day

Therefore we do not lose heart. Even though our outward man is perishing, yet the inward man is being renewed day by day. (2 Corinthians 4:16 NKJV)

This Scripture tells us that we are being renewed, day by day. We are constantly being renewed in Christ and by Christ. Sometimes it will seem like we are physically perishing and decaying because of the physical challenges and affiliations that we face, however our inner man is being renewed by God.

As long as we are seeking Him and pleasing Him in Spirit and in truth, we must not be discouraged or fear. After renewal comes glory and when glory appears, shadows and difficulties disappear into the night where they belong. When glory appears light rules and reigns and no darkness will survive there. However, we must keep marching forward to the place of glory without giving up.

As we trust God, depend on Him, walk in Him and not give up, God Himself will perfect all that concerns us and our temporary afflictions will give way to power and glory. May we never look back in Jesus name. Amen.

He Lives For Justice

To execute judgement on all, to convict all who are ungodly among them of all their ungodly deeds which they have committed in an ungodly way, and of all the harsh things which ungodly sinners have spoken against Him.” (Jude 1:15 NKJV)

He will execute judgement on all

He lives for justice

And guarantees

Justice for all

 

Let the oppressed rejoice

And be glad

Let the down trodden celebrate

Because

Our God rules

From heaven above

 

The foundation of His throne

Of the cruel

And ungodly

 

He will save the oppressed

And downtrodden

And decorate them

With crowns of mercy

And justice

 

Rejoice brethren

Rejoice

For our God

Is an awesome God

 

He is the avenger

And He avenges blood

Blessed be His Holy name
