15/7/19 People of Power
You, yes you, are a person of power. You have been shifted from a small limited mind-set, to one that is open and free. You are no longer held and limited by the view of the world which you have been taught, or even the view that your parents held or that others now hold.
I have given you a new mind. That mind is the mind of Christ! When you don’t know what to do or say. Then stop and ask. I will give you wisdom and revelation and show you what and how to speak. You are not your own any longer, nor are you, on your own. You are a new creation, the old has gone and the new is come.
Do not answer your accusers harshly, but rather extend My grace and mercy, through the words you speak. Reveal My heart in the face of harshness. Show another way, choose love, for you are a people of power!
(NIV) 1 Corinthians 2: 13-16
This is what we speak, not in words taught us by human wisdom but in words taught by the Spirit, explaining spiritual realities with Spirit-taught words. The person without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God but considers them foolishness, and cannot understand them because they are discerned only through the Spirit. The person with the Spirit makes judgments about all things, but such a person is not subject to merely human judgments, for,
“Who has known the mind of the Lord
so as to instruct him?”
But we have the mind of Christ.
(NIV) 2 Corinthians 5: 16-17
So from now on we regard no one from a worldly point of view. Though we once regarded Christ in this way, we do so no longer. Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!
(NIV) Psalm 68: 35
You, God, are awesome in your sanctuary;
the God of Israel gives power and strength to his people.
Praise be to God!
16/7/19 Extravagant Love
I have lavished upon you My extravagant love. There is nothing that can keep Me from you. Nothing can separate you from Me. For My love will overcome all wounds, hurts and distress. I love you with an everlasting love. My love in and through you will overcome the world.
Love is not a weak thing, but instead has the power to break strongholds and anything else that sets itself up. Love conquers all.
That unfailing, all conquering love, is the love I have set upon you. I have sealed you as Mine. I am so wildly in love with you. I sing, I dance, I twirl over you with such delight, knowing that I am in love with you.
David danced with all his might as the ark of My presence returned to Jerusalem. He was madly in love with My presence. Others despised him but I did not, it made My heart sing, knowing there was nothing that he would withhold from Me.
My extravagant love is for you.
(TPT) 2 Peter 1: 3
Everything we could ever need for life and complete devotion to God has already been deposited in us by his divine power. For all this was lavished upon us through the rich experience of knowing him who has called us by name and invited us to come to him through a glorious manifestation of his goodness.
(TPT) Ephesians 3: 18-19
Then you will be empowered to discover what every holy one experiences—the great magnitude of the astonishing love of Christ in all its dimensions. How deeply intimate and far-reaching is his love! How enduring and inclusive it is! Endless love beyond measurement that transcends our understanding—this extravagant love pours into you until you are filled to overflowing with the fullness of God!
17/7/19 Roots of the Gospel
My family, I remind you today, that the roots of your salvation are alive and growing in and through me. You seek and hunger after more, and as you give Holy Spirit complete freedom in your life, the supernatural transformation will continue, to be a daily upgrading in every area of your life and walk.
Your roots seek out every drop of living water they can find, and keep moving deeper and deeper into all that I have for you.
Your heart leaps at my every word and my simple gospel is revealed in the core of your being. You do not seek for your own recognition, but leave all hungering after the more of me.
You delight yourself in ME.
My good and faithful, servant.
(NIV) Romans 11: 17-19
If some of the branches have been broken off, and you, though a wild olive shoot, have been grafted in among the others and now share in the nourishing sap from the olive root, do not consider yourself to be superior to those other branches. If you do, consider this: You do not support the root, but the root supports you. You will say then, “Branches were broken off so that I could be grafted in.”
(NIV) Romans 1: 16-17
For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes: first to the Jew, then to the Gentile. For in the gospel the righteousness of God is revealed—a righteousness that is by faith from first to last, just as it is written: “The righteous will live by faith.”
(NIV) Matthew 25: 21
“His master replied, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master’s happiness!’
18/7/19 Mouldable
Today, I would ask you if you are mouldable in My hand? Are you willing to be pressed, crushed and formed into My likeness? Are you willing to surrender your life into My hands and trust Me with the outcome? Are you willing to let go of the need to understand everything?
If the answer is “Yes” then place yourself fully into My hands, and let the adventure begin.
I will direct your steps; each turn of your life. I do not promise you a safe, easy or even comfortable life. I promise you one with many twists and turns, ups and downs, with numerous nail biting moments. One thing it won’t be, is dull and predictable.
You will have countless stories to tell of My protection and care. The more you trust, the greater the stories.
Are you ready?
Then let’s go!
(NIV) Matthew 10: 18-20
On my account you will be brought before governors and kings as witnesses to them and to the Gentiles. But when they arrest you, do not worry about what to say or how to say it. At that time you will be given what to say, for it will not be you speaking, but the Spirit of your Father speaking through you.
(NIV) Mark 16: 15-20
He said to them, ‘Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation. Whoever believes and is baptised will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned. And these signs will accompany those who believe: in my name they will drive out demons; they will speak in new tongues; they will pick up snakes with their hands; and when they drink deadly poison, it will not hurt them at all; they will place their hands on people who are ill, and they will get well.’
After the Lord Jesus had spoken to them, he was taken up into heaven and he sat at the right hand of God. Then the disciples went out and preached everywhere, and the Lord worked with them and confirmed his word by the signs that accompanied it.
19/7/19 Biblical Voice
Do not be deceived or side-tracked. My word still stands. This world will try to tell you that the Bible has no place in your life today, that you are modern men and women who should not let your lives be influenced by a religious book.
But I would remind you that the Bible is not merely a religious book, full of words and ideas. I would remind you that the Word (Jesus) became flesh and made His dwelling with us. The word is as alive today as it has always been. It carries truth and life. It brings freedom to the prisoners. It has the power to transform and bring reformation.
However, it needs your voice to speak it out. Not to be whispered behind closed doors but to be shouted from the mountain tops. Many voices will arise calling, “Prepare the way of the Lord”.
Be a Biblical Voice today!
(NIV) Matthew 24: 35
Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away.
(NIV) Psalm 119: 14-16
I rejoice in following your statutes
as one rejoices in great riches.
I meditate on your precepts
and consider your ways.
I delight in your decrees;
I will not neglect your word.
(NIV) 2 Timothy 2: 15
Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth.
22/7/19 I Am Calling Your Name
Do you hear my gentle whisper in the night hours, as I call your name? Do you sense my closeness, as our heart beats gel into one? The rhythm of your life and mine becomes a new tune, a new song as we dance and laugh together in the secret place. Do you my beloved bride sense the vibration of the new sound rising between us, that will become a shaking this world has never witnessed before?
I Am Calling you out from the midst of them, that they will witness all my glory manifest through you. They will watch in awe the manifestation of true righteousness and repentance before the throne of the one true living God.
Your days of silence with your head bowed through the shame of lies and deceit are at an end. Your voice will once again stand in the gap for the disenfranchised. You will speak and kings and queens and nations will tremble, as the truth of the revelations that I will release through you, will become the truth in and over these nations and people.
My witnesses are being sent forth in My Name.
Selah
(NIV) 2 Peter 1: 3-4
His divine power has given us everything we need for a godly life through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness. Through these he has given us his very great and precious promises, so that through them you may participate in the divine nature, having escaped the corruption in the world caused by evil desires.
(NIV) 2 Corinthians 6: 17-18
Therefore,
“Come out from them
and be separate,
says the Lord.
Touch no unclean thing,
and I will receive you.”
And,
“I will be a Father to you,
and you will be my sons and daughters,
says the Lord Almighty.”
(NIV) Matthew 10: 18-19
On my account you will be brought before governors and kings as witnesses to them and to the Gentiles. But when they arrest you, do not worry about what to say or how to say it. At that time you will be given what to say.
23/7/19 Babbling Brook
Do you remember Elijah? At My word, He prophesied that it would not rain for a few years. After he had prophesied, I hid him for a time in the Kerith Ravine, he drank from the brook and the ravens fed him, morning and evening, on bread and meat. He was obedient to the things I asked of him.
My true prophets will be tested again and again, as they speak out the words that I will release to them. They will be words of truth that will be unacceptable to many, even in the known church. They will issue a challenge that will stand the test of time. Do not be afraid!
Can I not hide you from your enemies? That I have a babbling brook that you can drink of and I will feed you? No man can lay his hand upon you until the set time. So do not fear the faces of men. Be bold and stand strong in the Kingdom.
(NIV) 1 Kings 17: 2-6
Then the word of the Lord came to Elijah: “Leave here, turn eastward and hide in the Kerith Ravine, east of the Jordan. You will drink from the brook, and I have directed the ravens to supply you with food there.”
So he did what the Lord had told him. He went to the Kerith Ravine, east of the Jordan, and stayed there. The ravens brought him bread and meat in the morning and bread and meat in the evening, and he drank from the brook.
(NIV) Ephesians 6: 3
Therefore put on the full armour of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand.
24/7/19 Whose Testimony?
Beloved, you spend so much of your time running here and there, looking to be accepted. Wanting and longing to have the praise of man. For man to give you the recognition that you do indeed carry My anointing.
Whose testimony will you believe? The one that comes from man, or the one that comes from Me? Do you not know that only My testimony about you stands true, for I know what is in your heart, the motives that move you forward? You make decisions based on how far you can climb in the here and now.
I say to you that My ways are not your ways, nor are My thoughts, your thoughts! I do not judge by words alone. The word of God judges the very thoughts and attitudes of your heart. Nothing in all creation is hidden from My sight.
Beloved, put your trust in My testimony alone.
(NIV) John 2: 23-25
Now while he was in Jerusalem at the Passover Festival, many people saw the signs he was performing and believed in his name. But Jesus would not entrust himself to them, for he knew all people. He did not need any testimony about mankind, for he knew what was in each person.
(NIV) John 12: 42-43
Yet at the same time many even among the leaders believed in him. But because of the Pharisees they would not openly acknowledge their faith for fear they would be put out of the synagogue; for they loved human praise more than praise from God.
(NIV) Hebrews 4: 12-13
For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart. Nothing in all creation is hidden from God’s sight. Everything is uncovered and laid bare before the eyes of him to whom we must give account.
25/7/19 Beautiful Sunrise
As the shadows are chased away, another night has come and gone.
The early light of dawn spreads across the horizon, as my beautiful sunrise pours itself across the skies. All over the world people awaken to a new day filled with the freshness of new beginnings.
The colours shape and transform the land that only a few short minutes ago, were wrapped in the gloom of shadow are now being transformed into the masterpiece that only the hand of God can produce.
The delicate touch of his brush upon his creation sets the sky afire with orange and red. The gentle hint of the morning breeze, as it kisses across the fields of wild flowers, releases his breath of transformation upon each of our lives as we yawn and stretch into the new day.
Wake up! Your day has come.
(NIV) Psalm 65: 8-9
The whole earth is filled with awe at your wonders;
where morning dawns, where evening fades,
you call forth songs of joy.
You care for the land and water it;
you enrich it abundantly.
The streams of God are filled with water
to provide the people with grain,
for so you have ordained it.
(NIV) Ephesians 2: 10
For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.
(NIV) 1 Thessalonians 5: 5-6
You are all children of the light and children of the day. We do not belong to the night or to the darkness. So then, let us not be like others, who are asleep, but let us be awake and sober.
26/7/19 Drive thru’
Beloved, many of you have got used to Drive thru’ fast food. You drive up to the window, put your order in for your favourite food, no hassle, no work, you have exactly what you want. When you want more you can go and get it, time after time.
Being part of My family, requires patience. Not everything you want is good for you, nor does it all come to you, wrapped up in a little brown bag. It takes work, commitment and obedience. Yes, everything that you need to live a Godly life has been given to you.
However, what I give to you, causes you to mature and learn from Me, becoming more like Me in nature and character.
Grow and feast on the fruit of My Spirit, love, joy, peace, patience, goodness, kindness, faithfulness and self-control. There is no end to these fruits. They may not be quick, but they will produce a harvest of righteousness.
(NIV) 2 Peter 1: 3-4
His divine power has given us everything we need for a godly life through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness. Through these he has given us his very great and precious promises, so that through them you may participate in the divine nature, having escaped the corruption in the world caused by evil desires.
(NIV) Galatians 5: 22-26
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law. Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit. Let us not become conceited, provoking and envying each other.
29/7/19 Restored Through “REST”
My beloved, you have been on the front line for many months, and have fought battle after battle, even hand to hand combat, as you thwart the enemy at every turn.
I speak into your heart and the very core of your being, hear my voice. Take off your battle armour, lay aside your sword and place your helmet beside them. Undress and prepare yourself to rest.
Exhaustion fills your vision, and tiredness creeps through every thought and action. Rest and relax in me. Lay your head upon my chest and allow everything to flow away into eternity.
Well done my good and faithful servant, you are my Warrior, trained to fight on the battlefield of Faith. You are a leader of many, and a teacher in the art of Spiritual Warfare.
But without divine “REST” you will burn out.
(NIV) Isaiah 40: 31
But those who hope in the Lord
will renew their strength.
They will soar on wings like eagles;
they will run and not grow weary,
they will walk and not be faint.
(NIV) Isaiah 50: 4
The Sovereign Lord has given me a well-instructed tongue,
to know the word that sustains the weary.
He wakens me morning by morning,
wakens my ear to listen like one being instructed.
(NIV) Hebrews 4: 9-10
There remains, then, a Sabbath-rest for the people of God; for anyone who enters God’s rest also rests from their works, just as God did from his.
30/7/19 Still Here
My Friend, you have been in the midst of the tempest. The storms have battered your life and family, the winds have torn at your flesh and tried to whip away your thoughts into confusion, but you are, “Still Here”.
War has ravaged your strength and even your reserve has been drained. The enemy has camped outside your tent and there has been no let up in the skirmishes of warfare. And yet you are “Still Here”.
Those you trusted turned their backs and walked away, leaving behind their lies and gossip and your reputation in tatters as your honour teetered upon the edge of the abyss. Again though, you are “Still Here”.
You, My Friend, cannot lie down and die, for you have been called in My Name, and commissioned by My Hand, to do the works that can only be done by you.
This is why you are “Still Here”.
(NIV) Ephesians 6: 10-12
Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armour of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.
(NIV) 1 Corinthians 15: 54-55
When the perishable has been clothed with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality, then the saying that is written will come true: “Death has been swallowed up in victory.”
“Where, O death, is your victory?
Where, O death, is your sting?”
(NIV) 1 Peter 4: 11-13
If anyone speaks, they should do so as one who speaks the very words of God. If anyone serves, they should do so with the strength God provides, so that in all things God may be praised through Jesus Christ. To him be the glory and the power forever and ever. Amen.
Dear friends, do not be surprised at the fiery ordeal that has come on you to test you, as though something strange were happening to you. But rejoice in as much as you participate in the sufferings of Christ, so that you may be overjoyed when his glory is revealed.
31/7/19 Unboundable
There have been many attempts to bind you hand and foot and to tether you to that which is not of the Living God. They have brought their chains of sin and rattled them in front of your face, to try and get you to accept their watered down gospel. You have stood strong and upright.
As a righteous servant, of the Kingdom of God, you are My Witness of the moral standards that are set forth in My Living Word.
My word is written upon your heart. I call you to loose your voice and take your eyes off of men, and then watch all fear fall from you, as I will fill your mouth with words of Kingdom Wisdom in every situation you find yourself in.
As My Voice of Authority you will set the captives free and break the yoke of slavery to sin from their lives. Broken chains pilled high will be your witness to this world.
(NIV) 1 Corinthians 15: 57-58
But thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
Therefore, my dear brothers and sisters, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labour in the Lord is not in vain.
(NIV) Galatians 5: 1
It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery.
(NIV) Jeremiah 1: 8-9
Do not be afraid of them, for I am with you and will rescue you,” declares the Lord.
Then the Lord reached out his hand and touched my mouth and said to me, “I have put my words in your mouth.
