5/6/17 Spiritual Corners
Be aware of the enemy’s plans to try and lead you around spiritual corners. He has placed into your path, tangents that will, if taken, lead you into rabbit trails of confusion and even unsound doctrine.
Awaken the deep spiritual gifts that you carry. My friend, you have the supernatural eyes of discernment to see into the plans and purposes of the enemy and his generals. Over the years we have walked together, you have and still do, carry the deep love of my heart.
Step once again onto the one true path that leads to my throne room. Fix your eyes upon me, and allow me to straighten the crown upon your head, for it was by my hands that it was placed there.
Be bold and speak up! This is the way the truth and the life no one comes to the father but by me.
(NIV) 1 Timothy 4: 1-5
The Spirit clearly says that in later times some will abandon the faith and follow deceiving spirits and things taught by demons. Such teachings come through hypocritical liars, whose consciences have been seared as with a hot iron. They forbid people to marry and order them to abstain from certain foods, which God created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and who know the truth. For everything God created is good, and nothing is to be rejected if it is received with thanksgiving, because it is consecrated by the word of God and prayer.
(NIV) Proverbs 28: 2
When a country is rebellious, it has many rulers,
but a ruler with discernment and knowledge maintains order.
(NIV) John 14: 5-7
Thomas said to him, “Lord, we don’t know where you are going, so how can we know the way?”
Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. If you really know me, you will know my Father as well. From now on, you do know him and have seen him.”
6/6/17 Counted
Every hair upon your head I have counted as carefully as every grain of sand that lies upon every beach. I know your name and your new name and have done from the beginning of all time even as I named every star in every constellation. I knew the day and second of your birth. I watched you come kicking and screaming as your lungs filled with my first breath.
I know everything you will say and do. Everyplace you will go; the schools and friends that you will make; the college and university of your choice, the degrees and masters; even the choice of job or ministry you will serve or lead. The nations that you will touch and change in my name are all known to me.
I know who will break your heart and who will be your first love, who you will marry or not as you choose.
Every day of your life is counted, down to the last second, for you are precious to me and I will love you with an everlasting love for you are eternally mine.
(NIV) Revelations 2: 17
Whoever has ears, let them hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To the one who is victorious, I will give some of the hidden manna. I will also give that person a white stone with a new name written on it, known only to the one who receives it.
(NIV) Acts 2: 25-28
David said about him:
“‘I saw the Lord always before me.
Because he is at my right hand,
I will not be shaken.
Therefore my heart is glad and my tongue rejoices;
my body also will rest in hope,
because you will not abandon me to the realm of the dead,
you will not let your holy one see decay.
You have made known to me the paths of life;
you will fill me with joy in your presence.’
(NIV) John 15: 15-17
I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master’s business. Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that I learned from my Father I have made known to you. You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you so that you might go and bear fruit—fruit that will last—and so that whatever you ask in my name the Father will give you. This is my command: Love each other.
7/6/17 The Gates are Ajar
I am rending the gates that have been your spiritual blockage. No more will they be a barrier to your full supernatural potential being revealed and released to bring glory to my name.
The way before you is open!
Stride out with authority, each step taking new ground. Release the prisoners from captivity and break the chains of tyranny. Be the voice of the voiceless and stand in the gap for the oppressed.
Teach and train as the Holy Spirit leads and set the kindling ablaze all across this nation and watch the fires of revival burn hotter and hotter.
My breath will be loosed upon this land and I will fan the flame of salvation as thousands will be gathered from the harvest fields.
(NIV) Ephesians 2: 13-15
But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far away have been brought near by the blood of Christ.
For he himself is our peace, who has made the two groups one and has destroyed the barrier, the dividing wall of hostility, by setting aside in his flesh the law with its commands and regulations. His purpose was to create in himself one new humanity out of the two, thus making peace.
(NIV) 1 Peter 2: 4-6
As you come to him, the living Stone—rejected by humans but chosen by God and precious to him— you also, like living stones, are being built into a spiritual house to be a holy priesthood, offering spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ. For in Scripture it says:
“See, I lay a stone in Zion,
a chosen and precious cornerstone,
and the one who trusts in him
will never be put to shame.”
(NIV) Ezekiel 37: 8-10
I looked, and tendons and flesh appeared on them and skin covered them, but there was no breath in them.
Then he said to me, “Prophesy to the breath; prophesy, son of man, and say to it, ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: Come, breath, from the four winds and breathe into these slain, that they may live.’” So I prophesied as he commanded me, and breath entered them; they came to life and stood up on their feet—a vast army.
(NIV) 2 Timothy 3: 16-17
All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.
8/6/17 Storm Clouds
The storm clouds are rising upon the horizon of many of your lives. Look up and see the coming of my storm. It will be filled with power that will shake the very foundations, of every religious concept and idea, created by the mind of man.
Sense the electricity in the supernatural air surrounding you. Hear the crackle of the expectancy, of the revelation, that my church is being called forth to be the beacon that it was always meant to be.
The rumble before the lightening will be like the hooves of the war horses, and my light will tear through the heavens, making night as day. All will be revealed by my glory.
My rain will bring cleansing and refreshing. It will wash away the stench of decay and ruin, and leave behind the white washed walls of righteousness. And the aroma of my love will rise for I AM the cornerstone.
My House will be a place of prayer.
(NIV) Revelation 3: 1-3
“To the angel of the church in Sardis write:
These are the words of him who holds the seven spirits of God and the seven stars. I know your deeds; you have a reputation of being alive, but you are dead. Wake up! Strengthen what remains and is about to die, for I have found your deeds unfinished in the sight of my God. Remember, therefore, what you have received and heard; hold it fast, and repent. But if you do not wake up, I will come like a thief, and you will not know at what time I will come to you.
(NIV) Zechariah 9: 14
Then the Lord will appear over them;
his arrow will flash like lightning.
The Sovereign Lord will sound the trumpet;
he will march in the storms of the south.
(NIV) 1 Corinthians 14: 8
Again, if the trumpet does not sound a clear call, who will get ready for battle?
(NIV) Ephesians 2: 19-21
Consequently, you are no longer foreigners and strangers, but fellow citizens with God’s people and also members of his household, built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Christ Jesus himself as the chief cornerstone. In him the whole building is joined together and rises to become a holy temple in the Lord.
9/6/17 Run with Me
It is time to feel the wind in your hair, as you run hand in hand with me. Let us run through the fields, and the meadows, as the sunlight shimmers through the trees, and dances across the floor of the lush green grass, strewn with wild flowers of every colour and fragrance.
Hold my hand tightly and never let go, for you are my love. Listen to the laughter and shouts of glee, as our hearts beat, entwined as one. Fix your eyes upon me, my beloved, and as our eyes meet, the very core of your soul, will sense the warmth of my love and devotion to my Bride.
(NIV) Song of Songs 2: 12-13
Flowers appear on the earth;
the season of singing has come,
the cooing of doves
is heard in our land.
The fig tree forms its early fruit;
the blossoming vines spread their fragrance.
Arise, come, my darling;
my beautiful one, come with me.”
(NIV) Psalm 139: 9-10
If I rise on the wings of the dawn,
if I settle on the far side of the sea,
even there your hand will guide me,
your right hand will hold me fast.
(NIV) Song of Songs 4: 9-10
You have stolen my heart, my sister, my bride;
you have stolen my heart
with one glance of your eyes,
with one jewel of your necklace.
How delightful is your love, my sister, my bride!
How much more pleasing is your love than wine,
and the fragrance of your perfume
more than any spice!
12/6/17 Weighed Down
Do you sense a heaviness weighing you down? Are your arms heavy from carrying the weight of the world with you, wherever you go?
My friend, as I watch your journey, you are carrying two suitcases with you every step of the way. When you meet someone and they speak into your life, you stop and open one or other of your suitcases. You put what has been said or done to you into the case, making it even heavier for you to struggle along, as each step becomes more and more laboured. You keep putting the cases down for a rest and stopping to catch your breath.
It is time to leave the weight of your past and present hurts behind. I will take care of them for you, allow me to take those cases from your tired hands and you, my friend, will be able to stand tall and your strength will return, as you rely upon me, to lift your burden.
My yoke is light and you are free this day to be you!
(NIV) Luke 21: 34-36
“Be careful, or your hearts will be weighed down with carousing, drunkenness and the anxieties of life, and that day will close on you suddenly like a trap. For it will come on all those who live on the face of the whole earth. Be always on the watch, and pray that you may be able to escape all that is about to happen, and that you may be able to stand before the Son of Man.”
(NIV) 1 Peter 5: 7-11
Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.
Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. Resist him, standing firm in the faith, because you know that the family of believers throughout the world is undergoing the same kind of sufferings.
And the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory in Christ, after you have suffered a little while, will himself restore you and make you strong, firm and steadfast. To him be the power for ever and ever. Amen.
(NIV) Matthew 11: 28-30
“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”
13/6/17 Whispers
My family, be aware of the voices of your past trying to slip silently back into your thoughts. They come to try to remind you, of the places, where these whispers had control over your mind and also manipulated your emotions, even to the point where you sense within you that you are being shut down.
They will come sneakily in the night hours when you are vulnerable. They will bring their drip, drip of poison into your mind, and if you allow them space, you will begin to see them manifest in your daily walk. You will sense a distance between us, and you will believe that you cannot hear me. You will eventually withdraw from everything, and everybody around you, because no one understands you, or what you are going through.
This is a LIE!
It’s perpetuated by the whispers, of the past dissenting voices, that are mere wisps’ of past conversations. I have already dealt with these through my blood, as you take captive every thought.
Wake Up, and know that I will, not now or ever allow you to remain in this state. As I have called you and ordained you as my own. The enemy is more afraid of you, and as the revelation of your true potential through me, is awakened in the core of your supernatural being, satan will flee from you, my mighty one.
You are Unique and you are mine.
(NIV) Psalm 139: 1-3
You have searched me, Lord,
and you know me.
You know when I sit and when I rise;
you perceive my thoughts from afar.
You discern my going out and my lying down;
you are familiar with all my ways.
(NIV) Isaiah 55: 8-12
“For my thoughts are not your thoughts,
neither are your ways my ways,”
declares the Lord.
“As the heavens are higher than the earth,
so are my ways higher than your ways
and my thoughts than your thoughts.
As the rain and the snow
come down from heaven,
and do not return to it
without watering the earth
and making it bud and flourish,
so that it yields seed for the sower and bread for the eater,
so is my word that goes out from my mouth:
It will not return to me empty,
but will accomplish what I desire
and achieve the purpose for which I sent it.
You will go out in joy
and be led forth in peace;
the mountains and hills
will burst into song before you,
and all the trees of the field
will clap their hands.
(NIV) 2 Corinthians 10: 4-5
The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds. We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.
14/6/17 Hidden Flames
I am releasing my hidden flames. They have been prepared in my secret place. They have become trained in close quarter combat and know the spiritual weapons of warfare. They march together as one, keeping momentum at my pace. My timing is being announced with the blowing of my trumpets.
My flames will bring reformation, as the spirit of religion is faced head on. No quarter will be given, for this battle will be won, and I the victor, will collect MY people and lead them out of the place of shadow, and into my true light of salvation.
Chose this day whom will you serve. I have sent the blueprints of this battle to the prophets and intercessors. They have faithfully cried out and prophesied, even when they have been cruelly abused by the spirit of religion and its followers.
My flames can be seen as they move through this nation. They are coming from every village, town and city. You will see the flame of my fire as it descends from the hills, glens and mountain tops. My army is gathering.
It is time for you to put on your armour.
(NIV) Hebrews 11: 1-3
Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see. This is what the ancients were commended for.
By faith we understand that the universe was formed at God’s command, so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible.
(NIV) Hebrews 11: 32-40
And what more shall I say? I do not have time to tell about Gideon, Barak, Samson and Jephthah, about David and Samuel and the prophets, who through faith conquered kingdoms, administered justice, and gained what was promised; who shut the mouths of lions, quenched the fury of the flames, and escaped the edge of the sword; whose weakness was turned to strength; and who became powerful in battle and routed foreign armies. Women received back their dead, raised to life again. There were others who were tortured, refusing to be released so that they might gain an even better resurrection. Some faced jeers and flogging, and even chains and imprisonment. They were put to death by stoning; they were sawed in two; they were killed by the sword. They went about in sheepskins and goatskins, destitute, persecuted and mistreated— the world was not worthy of them. They wandered in deserts and mountains, living in caves and in holes in the ground.
These were all commended for their faith, yet none of them received what had been promised, since God had planned something better for us so that only together with us would they be made perfect.
(NIV) Joshua 24:15
But if serving the Lord seems undesirable to you, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your ancestors served beyond the Euphrates, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you are living. But as for me and my household, we will serve the Lord.”
(NIV) Hebrews 1: 7
In speaking of the angels he says,
“He makes his angels spirits,
and his servants flames of fire.
(NIV) Romans 13: 11-12
And do this, understanding the present time: The hour has already come for you to wake up from your slumber, because our salvation is nearer now than when we first believed. The night is nearly over; the day is almost here. So let us put aside the deeds of darkness and put on the armour of light.
15/6/17 Drink from my Cup
I hear your prayers, your lips are dry, your throat is like sand in the heat of the desert sun, and you have come into a place where all seems arid, dry and hopeless.
I lift to your lips a cup of cool, clear, refreshing water. My beloved you sip slowly to begin with but as the coolness flows past your lips and into your mouth it awakens in you a hunger for more, you swallow and all that was dry is transformed, as the clear, refreshing, waters of life, fills every part of you.
The very core of your being shakes free of the dust of restriction. Refreshed you pick up a cup for those who are thirsty.
(NIV) Psalm 116: 13
I will lift up the cup of salvation
and call on the name of the Lord.
(NIV) John 4: 14
But whoever drinks the water I give them will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give them will become in them a spring of water welling up to eternal life.”
(NIV) Psalm 23: 1-6
The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing.
He makes me lie down in green pastures,
he leads me beside quiet waters,
he refreshes my soul.
He guides me along the right paths
for his name’s sake.
Even though I walk
through the darkest valley,
I will fear no evil,
for you are with me;
your rod and your staff,
they comfort me.
You prepare a table before me
in the presence of my enemies.
You anoint my head with oil;
my cup overflows.
Surely your goodness and love will follow me
all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the house of the Lord
forever.
16/6/17 Purity
For many of my sons and daughters, young and old, from birth to even the final seconds of this mortal life, you have been robbed of your innocence and your peace of mind has been taken from you, stolen by the hands of the enemy. The terror of the night is still very real to you, for something was lost, stolen and even taken from the innocence of the child or the defencelessness of an adult.
I release Healing upon your minds, upon your thoughts, upon the pain of the memories of what was done to you and even now I am removing the scars of the past that have been left upon your hearts.
I am restoring to you your purity, your innocence, as all sins become as white as snow. I am calling your purity to be fully restored.
(NIV) 1Timothy 4: 11-12
Command and teach these things. Don’t let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith and in purity.
(NIV) Isaiah 1: 17-19
Learn to do right; seek justice.
Defend the oppressed.
Take up the cause of the fatherless;
plead the case of the widow.
“Come now, let us settle the matter,”
says the Lord.
“Though your sins are like scarlet,
they shall be as white as snow;
though they are red as crimson,
they shall be like wool.
If you are willing and obedient,
you will eat the good things of the land.
(NIV) Philippians 4: 6-8
Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.
19/6/17 Itchy Feet
There is an agitation surrounding you, my friend. It is like a shaking and a rumbling in the very core of your being. The hunger for adventure is becoming overpowering, and you have already packed your spiritual suitcase, as you become more and more aware of my call upon your life.
You sense the move that is coming, as the harvest fields ripen, and you hear my still small voice calling out your name.
The time has come for the exodus of my people, to leave what have become their places of comfort, and to once again move into my journey of discovery, as Holy Spirit leads you to your new destinations. I am shifting many internationally, as well as locally. So be prepared to have your passport ready.
(NIV) Isaiah 6:8
Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send? And who will go for us?”
And I said, “Here am I. Send me!”
(NIV) Hebrews 11: 8-9
By faith Abraham, when called to go to a place he would later receive as his inheritance, obeyed and went, even though he did not know where he was going. By faith he made his home in the promised land like a stranger in a foreign country; he lived in tents, as did Isaac and Jacob, who were heirs with him of the same promise.
(NIV) Romans 8:28-30
And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose. For those God foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brothers and sisters. And those he predestined, he also called; those he called, he also justified; those he justified, he also glorified.
20/6/17 Demonic Distractions
My family, there is an onslaught of demonic activity being released around this world. Satan is attempting to bring your view to bear upon his demonic distractions. His plan is to bring a spirit of deep confusion upon the church, as he slowly lowers a demonic blindfold over the eyes of the spiritually unaware.
You, my sons and daughters, have been set free and anointed to carry Holy Spirits’ deep revelation, to see supernaturally into the signs and times of what is transpiring throughout this nation and world. You are my voice and you each carry my authority to bring the plans of the enemy, to a complete halt, by releasing my name over his demonic plans.
As my intercessors, you carry the boldness to approach my throne of grace and cry out for the needs of your nation and the world beyond. I hear your prayers for you carry the depth of my compassion and love to the lost and dying who are still entrapped by the satanic lies of distraction.
You are my ministers of reconciliation. My living word flows like a river from the core of your being, everywhere it touches, lives are freed and washed clean.
(NIV) 1 Peter 5: 8-9
Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. Resist him, standing firm in the faith, because you know that the family of believers throughout the world is undergoing the same kind of sufferings.
(NIV) 2 Corinthians 4: 3-5
And even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing. The god of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the light of the gospel that displays the glory of Christ, who is the image of God. For what we preach is not ourselves, but Jesus Christ as Lord, and ourselves as your servants for Jesus’ sake.
(NIV) Proverbs 29: 18
Where there is no revelation, people cast off restraint;
but blessed is the one who heeds wisdom’s instruction.
(NIV) 2 Corinthians 5: 17-19
Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here! All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation: that God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ, not counting people’s sins against them. And he has committed to us the message of reconciliation.
21/6/17 Time is Ticking
All time is in my hands. From the second of your conception to the very last breath you take, I have ordained the time you have upon this earth. Even eternity is held in my hands, and you and I will be together forever.
My timing is perfect.
The frustration you sense within yourself is a reminder of your hunger and need to be forever moving forward and doing, rather than being. I call you to rest in me and seek my heart. Sing a new song and sing it with gusto. Write me a poem and read it to me, as we sit under the shade of the trees, beside the gurgling stream in our secret place. Reach out to me as I wrap my loving arms around you and allow yourself to relax, sense all the tension and stress flow away from you.
Now you my beloved are truly in my timing, wait patiently, for my guiding hand will lead you upon the paths I have set before you.
(NIV) Isaiah 46: 9-10
Remember the former things, those of long ago;
I am God, and there is no other;
I am God, and there is none like me.
I make known the end from the beginning,
from ancient times, what is still to come.
I say, ‘My purpose will stand,
and I will do all that I please.’
(NIV) Acts 17: 25-27
And he is not served by human hands, as if he needed anything. Rather, he himself gives everyone life and breath and everything else. From one man he made all the nations, that they should inhabit the whole earth; and he marked out their appointed times in history and the boundaries of their lands. God did this so that they would seek him and perhaps reach out for him and find him, though he is not far from any one of us.
(NIV) Psalm 91: 9-16
If you say, “The Lord is my refuge,”
and you make the Most High your dwelling,
no harm will overtake you,
no disaster will come near your tent.
For he will command his angels concerning you
to guard you in all your ways;
they will lift you up in their hands,
so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.
You will tread on the lion and the cobra;
you will trample the great lion and the serpent.
“Because he loves me,” says the Lord, “I will rescue him;
I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name.
He will call on me, and I will answer him;
I will be with him in trouble,
I will deliver him and honour him.
With long life I will satisfy him
and show him my salvation.”
22/6/17 Compare Yourself to Me
My divine nature lives within you. Peace like a river flows from your heart and the fragrance of the wild mountain roses emanate from your spirit. You walk in pathways that have been ordained for your life and you are following in my footprints.
You are balanced and surefooted, even when the way before you becomes rugged and dangerous; you step out with supernatural boldness, for you know where your help comes from. You hear the angelic voices as they sing and worship in my throne room.
I AM the measure of you.
(NIV) 2 Corinthians 10: 12-13
We do not dare to classify or compare ourselves with some who commend themselves. When they measure themselves by themselves and compare themselves with themselves, they are not wise. We, however, will not boast beyond proper limits, but will confine our boasting to the sphere of service God himself has assigned to us, a sphere that also includes you.
(NIV) Ephesians 4: 11-15
So Christ himself gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the pastors and teachers, to equip his people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ.
Then we will no longer be infants, tossed back and forth by the waves, and blown here and there by every wind of teaching and by the cunning and craftiness of people in their deceitful scheming. Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will grow to become in every respect the mature body of him who is the head, that is, Christ.
(NIV) 2 Peter 1: 3-11
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.
For this very reason, make every effort to add to your faith goodness; and to goodness, knowledge; and to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control, perseverance; and to perseverance, godliness; and to godliness, mutual affection; and to mutual affection, love. For if you possess these qualities in increasing measure, they will keep you from being ineffective and unproductive in your knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. But whoever does not have them is nearsighted and blind, forgetting that they have been cleansed from their past sins.
Therefore, my brothers and sisters, make every effort to confirm your calling and election. For if you do these things, you will never stumble, and you will receive a rich welcome into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
23/6/17 Indecision
I challenge you this day, choose whom you will serve. There is no place, nor, is it the time to be found sitting on the fence. There is only one Lord, one faith, one baptism, one God and Father of all. So again I say CHOOSE!
Those who are found sitting on the fence, will be drawn away by the enemy, as he seeks those whom he may devour. Draw close to Me and I will draw close to you. Charge your hearts to stand firm in the face of adversity and difficulties.
I AM the one who is holding your hands high. I AM directing your heart where it needs to go. Do not allow the momentary things to divert you from the course I have chosen for you. Even when man closes the doors, I will re-direct you and give you favour in places that you could only imagine. I, even I, am He who formed you in your mother’s womb. I set My hand upon you and called you to be mine before the very foundation of the world.
(NIV) Ephesians 4: 4-6
There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called to one hope when you were called; one Lord, one faith, one baptism; one God and Father of all, who is over all and through all and in all.
(NIV) 1 Peter 5: 8
Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour.
(NIV) Jeremiah 1: 5
Before I formed you in the womb I knew you,
before you were born I set you apart
(NIV) 1 Kings 18: 21
Elijah went before the people and said, ‘How long will you waver between two opinions? If the Lord is God, follow him; but if Baal is God, follow him.
(NIV) Joshua 24: 15
But if serving the Lord seems undesirable to you, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your ancestors served beyond the Euphrates, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you are living. But as for me and my household, we will serve the Lord.
26/6/17 Judgement
My people why do you constantly choose to judge one another for sin? Was My Son, Jesus, not punished enough? Did I not judge Him a hundred percent for your sin? He became so abhorrent to Me that I had to turn away from Him for a moment.
I did not send My Son into the world to judge, nor to condemn the world. I sent Him to save the world, to bring reconciliation and love, to a dying and helpless world. The only judgement that He carried out was on satan, He came to judge him. To take back from him the authority that he stole from man in the garden.
Why then do you go around judging each other for sin? My heart is one of mercy and grace. Won’t you be like Me and overlook the offences and wounds of others, and place yourself back into the flow of My Holy Spirit? Forgive as I have forgiven you. My judgements are reserved for the last day.
(NIV) Matthew 7: 1-5
Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way as you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.
‘Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother’s eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? How can you say to your brother, “Let me take the speck out of your eye,” when all the time there is a plank in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye.
(NIV) John 3: 17
For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.
(NIV) John 12: 47 &31
If anyone hears my words but does not keep them, I do not judge that person. For I did not come to judge the world, but to save the world.
Now is the time for judgment on this world; now the prince of this world will be driven out.
(NIV) John 8:15-16
You judge by human standards; I pass judgment on no one. But if I do judge, my decisions are true, because I am not alone. I stand with the Father, who sent me.
(NIV) Acts 17:31
For he has set a day when he will judge the world with justice by the man he has appointed. He has given proof of this to everyone by raising him from the dead.
27/6/17 Taking out the Trash
My family, there are many times in your lives that you allow the trash to build up around you, even to the point, when it begins to block your vision and you begin to see me less and less.
Today is the day to take out the trash and throw into the bin, everything that robs you of your clear vision of who you are in me and anywhere this trash has dimmed my revelation of your supernatural gifts and calling. Fill the trash bags, for some of you they will be heavy to lift, but now is the time, to be set free from the lies of satan.
As you throw these bags of trash out of your life, you will have a clear vision of my plan and purpose over your life. The freedom of my vision, will engulf all of your spiritual desire, and you will again know the lightness of my touch and my heart for you.
My Kingdom aroma will fill your nostrils as the stench of decay is blown away on the wind of Holy Spirit and you will begin to lift off from the ground and fly. The thermals are your friends, they will lift you higher and higher, until you have a clear vision of all that surrounds you.
(NIV) 2 Corinthians 3: 13-15
We are not like Moses, who would put a veil over his face to prevent the Israelites from seeing the end of what was passing away. But their minds were made dull, for to this day the same veil remains when the old covenant is read. It has not been removed, because only in Christ is it taken away. Even to this day when Moses is read, a veil covers their hearts.
(NIV) Acts 2: 17-18
“‘In the last days, God says,
I will pour out my Spirit on all people.
Your sons and daughters will prophesy,
your young men will see visions,
your old men will dream dreams.
Even on my servants, both men and women,
I will pour out my Spirit in those days,
and they will prophesy.
(NIV) Isaiah 40: 28-31
Do you not know?
Have you not heard?
The Lord is the everlasting God,
the Creator of the ends of the earth.
He will not grow tired or weary,
and his understanding no one can fathom.
He gives strength to the weary
and increases the power of the weak.
Even youths grow tired and weary,
and young men stumble and fall;
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) Romans 8: 18-22
I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us. For the creation waits in eager expectation for the children of God to be revealed. For the creation was subjected to frustration, not by its own choice, but by the will of the one who subjected it, in hope that the creation itself will be liberated from its bondage to decay and brought into the freedom and glory of the children of God.
We know that the whole creation has been groaning as in the pains of childbirth right up to the present time.
28/6/17 Messages
I looked to the skies and above me were thousands and thousands of balloons. Each one was highly coloured and they filled all of my view. They were being carried by the wind and travelled vast distances in the high stratosphere until, they began to come down to earth and land in many different lands, where they were picked up by those who found them. On each balloon there was a message written especially for the finder.
I have sent out across the nations my family, and they each carry my message to a dying world. The message they carry is for the ears of the hungry, as they seek for the truth. These searchers are tired of being force fed the propaganda, of the false news machine that tries to blindfold the nations to the truth of my Heavenly Kingdom and Salvation.
You will know them for they are the artists, poets, singers, song writers, apostles, Prophets, seers, preachers, teachers, intercessors and tea ladies. All are filled with colour and passion for my name, and they carry such a depth of love for the seekers of this world. I have written my message to you upon their hearts, come and seek me and you will find your truth in ME!
(NIV) Romans 10: 16-18
But not all the Israelites accepted the good news. For Isaiah says, “Lord, who has believed our message?” Consequently, faith comes from hearing the message, and the message is heard through the word about Christ. But I ask: Did they not hear? Of course they did:
“Their voice has gone out into all the earth,
their words to the ends of the world.”
(NIV) 2 Corinthians 5: 18-20
All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation: that God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ, not counting people’s sins against them. And he has committed to us the message of reconciliation. We are therefore Christ’s ambassadors, as though God were making his appeal through us. We implore you on Christ’s behalf: Be reconciled to God.
(NIV) Ephesians 1: 12-14
In order that we, who were the first to put our hope in Christ, might be for the praise of his glory. And you also were included in Christ when you heard the message of truth, the gospel of your salvation. When you believed, you were marked in him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit, who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God’s possession—to the praise of his glory.
29/6/17 Summer Time
Summer is the time for your garden to come into full bloom. You have spent hour upon hour digging and preparing the ground. Then you painstakingly planted your seed beds and covered them over. You fed them and watched as the rain watered them. You watched as the first shoot pushed its way out of the soil after germination. It is now summer and every flower has opened up to the morning sun and the splendour of all your hard work is evident for all to see.
You are my garden my sons and daughters. I have tended the very earth that you walk on and cared for every need that you have. I have watched you grow from your mothers’ womb to who you have now become. Everyone can now see your full splendour as one of my Children.
You reflect my glory upon this earth as you carry my beauty and you bring summer into the lives around you. Let the fragrance of your spiritual garden flow out upon the wind of my Spirit and watch as it attracts the many to come who will seek out your beauty.
(NIV) John 15: 1-3
“I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener. He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit, while every branch that does bear fruit he prunes so that it will be even more fruitful. You are already clean because of the word I have spoken to you.
(NIV) Song of Songs 4: 16
Awake, north wind,
and come, south wind!
Blow on my garden,
that its fragrance may spread everywhere.
Let my beloved come into his garden
and taste its choice fruits.
(NIV) Isaiah 61: 3b-4
To bestow on them a crown of beauty
instead of ashes,
the oil of joy
instead of mourning,
and a garment of praise
instead of a spirit of despair.
They will be called oaks of righteousness,
a planting of the Lord
for the display of his splendour.
They will rebuild the ancient ruins
and restore the places long devastated;
they will renew the ruined cities
that have been devastated for generations.
30/6/17 Shepherding
I am the Good Shepherd and I have laid down My life for My sheep. I call you to draw near and to know Me intimately. I am shepherding together those who are truly of My pasture and My flock. You are learning to come together in unity, not conformity. I am drawing you out of those places of captivity and bondage into freedom. You will not think alike, but you will all look like Me and carry My heart attitude towards each other. Honouring each other above yourself.
Even from the midst of you I am raising up those who will support and guide you to know Me in a deeper more intimate way. They will direct you to Me and will carry My heart of love for those around them. You will have no other before you for I have put my laws in your minds and written them on your hearts and I am your God and you are My people. You know me
(NIV) John10: 1-15
‘Very truly I tell you Pharisees, anyone who does not enter the sheepfold by the gate, but climbs in by some other way, is a thief and a robber. The one who enters by the gate is the shepherd of the sheep. The gatekeeper opens the gate for him, and the sheep listen to his voice. He calls his own sheep by name and leads them out. When he has brought out all his own, he goes on ahead of them, and his sheep follow him because they know his voice. But they will never follow a stranger; in fact, they will run away from him because they do not recognise a stranger’s voice.’ Jesus used this figure of speech, but the Pharisees did not understand what he was telling them.
Therefore Jesus said again, ‘Very truly I tell you, I am the gate for the sheep. All who have come before me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep have not listened to them. I am the gate; whoever enters through me will be saved. They will come in and go out, and find pasture. The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.
‘I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep. The hired hand is not the shepherd and does not own the sheep. So when he sees the wolf coming, he abandons the sheep and runs away. Then the wolf attacks the flock and scatters it. The man runs away because he is a hired hand and cares nothing for the sheep.
‘I am the good shepherd; I know my sheep and my sheep know me – just as the Father knows me and I know the Father – and I lay down my life for the sheep. I have other sheep that are not of this sheepfold. I must bring them also. They too will listen to my voice, and there shall be one flock and one shepherd. The reason my Father loves me is that I lay down my life – only to take it up again. No one takes it from me, but I lay it down of my own accord. I have authority to lay it down and authority to take it up again. This command I received from my Father.’
(NIV) Hebrews 8: 10-11
I will put my laws in their minds
and write them on their hearts.
I will be their God,
and they will be my people.
No longer will they teach their neighbours,
or say to one another, “Know the Lord,”
because they will all know me,
from the least of them to the greatest.
