Month: March 2024 (Page 2 of 3)

This morning in my communion time with the Holy Spirit I was so excited because last night before I slept the Holy Spirit dropped a word in my heart that stirred me back to alertness because it was so strong and a compliment to a word He had given me.The reality of asking the Lord for what was inconceivable from man’s perspective. I duly received the word and meditated on it till I slept. This morning the Holy Spirit has broadened my horizon on it and I want to share this word with you.

The Holy Spirit said to me that He is going to fill me with what is uncontainable. The Holy Spirit is so large and His reach so broad that the very earth cannot contain His glory and He wants our lives to be full of His uncontainable power on the earth to show just how great God actually is. In Habakkuk.2:14 which reads these glorious words of promise from the Most High God For the earth will be filled With the knowledge of the glory of the Lord, As the waters cover the sea.

Let the true import of these words wash over your heart and soul and replenish every weariness, tiredness, doubt, unbelief and fear far away from your life and so captivate your heart to such a degree that you burst out with an exuberant stupendous praise to the name of Jesus.

The knowledge of the glory of the Lord covering the earth as the waters cover the sea. It is one thing for the glory of the Lord to cover the earth because that involves only the Lord showing up with His Presence and we see it as Israel saw the pillar of cloud by day and the pillar of fire by night but could not understand it because they did not know His ways, but only experienced His acts.

What the Lord is pointing out here is that the knowledge by revelation which as His people we walk in will cover the earth as the waters cover the sea. We will be walking in such knowledge of the glory of the Lord that it covers, blankets the earth as waters cover the Sea.

The only thing visible will be the knowledge of the glory of the Lord and we swimming in it. Completely saturated by what only the glory of the Lord can do all the time. Extraordinary and unusual miracles, signs and wonders being manifested on a daily basis.

Well this is the uncontainable power of the Lord which the Holy Spirit whispered in my ear last night that He wants us to be full of on the earth at this time.

The miraculous power of the Lord so visible in all nations at the same time that it alone is the talking point in the lives of men who are continually bearing witness to what great things the Holy Spirit has wrought in their lives with infallible proof of its manifestation in their individual circumstances and situations.

Each person knowing how the glory has worked and impacted their lives and can explain what has taken place in their lives to others for them to marvel and be converted to follow Jesus.

The mystery of the knowledge of the glory of the Lord made manifest and humans knowing it and being intimate about it as they testify of its potency that all flesh gets to see in full manifestation. When the Holy Spirit spoke to me yesterday about asking Him for inconceivable things this thought had not crossed my mind.

However this thought given me last night is inconceivable that all people will be able to explain the knowledge of the glory of the Lord as real as the waters that cover the sea. This is not about a river that can be shallow at various points and places but the depth of the waters is such that it alone at every point is the same level of depth and we are covered in it. What a startling thought which we must receive and line up with.

I am still in awe of this reality and meditating on it as I write this post because this is beyond what we as humans can imagine possible and it takes grace to comprehend the full magnitude of these words as the new norm on the earth.

When we look at the state of nations at this point in time it seems so far away, but I have come to see and know that what would take men thousands of years to accomplish the Lord can do in a moment of time so I choose to just believe it , receive it and embrace its reality in my daily life. God said it, I believe it and that settles it.

We need to be as receptive to the Lord as Mary was when Gabriel said to her you will conceive and bear a son though you know not a man. Her response was be it unto me according to your word Lord and from that moment her life dramatically changed as she became highly favored and watched her life transformed to the point where men from the east came bringing gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh and laid at the feet of Jesus which she had never experienced before but that now became the new story of her life once she accepted the plan of the Lord.Luke.1:38

It was so real that it got to the point that Mary could say to the servants at the wedding feast whatever Jesus says to you to do, just obey and do it. It will be as He says because no word He speaks ever fails to achieve what He said it will do and I have absolute confidence in what He speaks. John.2:5

This is the place the Holy Spirit wants us to walk in total submission to every word He speaks to us because they are Spirit and life and will happen exactly as He spoke. If people in Israel had such confidence in the words the prophet Samuel spoke that they said of him that from Dan to Beersheba it was known that no word of the Lord spoken by Samuel ever fell to the ground.

Every word came to pass.

How much more now will every word spoken by the Holy Spirit come to pass as He only declares what Jesus says and wants to happen.

My prayer for you today is that as you hear these words the grace to see them manifest in your lives will be given to you and you will be endued with ability/ power from on High to walk this out and embrace the knowledge of the glory of the Lord overshadowing your life as the waters cover the sea to become visible in your daily walk from this time onwards.

This is not a hit and miss situation but a new reality that will become the pattern of living in your daily experience as a lover and close follower of the Lord by the power of the Holy Spirit in the name of Jesus.

Open your hearts wide and allow the Holy Spirit to pour out the unlimited Knowledge of the glory of the Lord in your lives. Choose to doubt your doubts and believe the truth of these words alone and embrace them with everything in you and refuse to let go of them under any circumstance or human event in the name of Jesus. Amen.

The Holy Spirit this morning spoke to me in my communion time with Him of being married to the Spirit of Triumph in Christ Jesus and through that union always being in the position where we are continuously walking in the place of triumph regardless of the place we started, even if from an ash heap.

My heart was excited at the prospect of that reality because I know that in many situations in my life there have been places of victory I won that have been snatched away from me, because I was unaware of how to correctly navigate after the success and ended up losing ground.

This was a pattern that the apostle Paul went through where He had major success in a Region and then found himself being driven away from that place through the influential people who stirred up trouble against his witness and he was expelled from that region. I always wanted to know why this kept happening to Paul so I could navigate without falling into the same defeat.

Let me now share some of the things the Holy Spirit pointed out to me about marriage to the Spirit of triumph in Christ Jesus. In 2 Corinthians 2:14 we read these words written by the apostle Paul: Now thanks be to God who always leads us in triumph in Christ, and through us diffuses the fragrance of His knowledge in every place.

I recall the first day that revelation became real to me because as I read and meditated on it I noticed that Paul spoke those words after he had missed an open door of opportunity in Troas where everything was perfect and the people were ready and there was no opposition to Paul sharing his message.

The people were eager to hear and receive his word, but Paul was the person not at rest and could not take advantage of this open access the Lord had given him and I was stunned because I knew how many times he had struggled to gain open access and the level of warfare he had to do just to prepare the ground and now everything was open and he capitulated and then goes on to say the Lord always leads us in triumph. So I asked the Holy Spirit how this was a triumph when he leaves not having done anything.

The Holy Spirit pointed out to me that Paul was led out in triumph into Troas, but his behavior/conduct caused him to miss out not the Spirit of triumph. Had Paul ministered to the people there would have been much triumph that was made manifest in the lives of people.

“I learned a lesson there.” “That although the Lord can open the door for us our conduct in every situation can and does determine the final outcome.”

This points to the fact that we must always be ready to take the opportunities the Lord presents. We need to be watchful, alert and girded with truth to make good every opportunity the Lord makes available. A clear portrait of the importance of our responsibility to steward the truth faithfully. The Holy Spirit went on to speak to me today on being married to the Spirit of triumph.

This speaks of being one with the Spirit of triumph and walking in total harmony and choreographed movement with Him as one entity. It also speaks of complete agreement with Triumph and not defeat in any situation no matter how it looks or appears. The end result will always be triumph.

He spoke of close continuous conversation with the Spirit of Triumph and resting on His decisions as the Carer and Responsible One for ensuring that we are not harmed or hurt in any situation. The Holy Spirit spoke of a much greater intimacy and knowing of one another which is only experienced in marriage.

Things of the ways of triumph and how it works being revealed that those outside are not privy to share in.The ultimate end being that you cannot distinguish between the Spirit of Triumph and you as you are completely One entity speaking with One clear voice that cannot be separated. This means an end to any situation or circumstance in life ending up in shame or disgrace or failure.

The fragrance of the knowledge of the glory of the Lord is always present in every place you step and walk in. Also having a share in everything that the Spirit of Triumph owns and possesses on a daily basis and access to it.

Now walking in this place of continued triumph demands attention and dedication to fellowship time, communion time and much continuous conversation with Him to get to know what the Spirit of Triumph possesses and how to make use of it in every situation in life.

Jesus never ever suffered a single defeat in His life and ministry and even when He consented to face the cross and die on our behalf the day they arrested Him as He mentioned I am the One you are looking for In John’s gospel.18 verse 6 Now when He said to them, “I am He,” they drew back and fell to the ground. The men fell under the power of the Spirit. His power was so tremendous it could still heal the servant whose ear Peter cut off even as they arrested Him.

My precious ones as you hear these words this morning embrace the grace that comes to you through them and make the quality decision to go wholly after union and marriage to the Spirit of Triumph in your life.

This will move you from the cycle of victory and defeat and then waiting and coming back to reality only to revisit the same scenario over and over again. Victory and defeat. Agree with the Spirit of Triumph in Christ and let the fragrance of the Knowledge of Him be your continued fragrance of beauty and radiance to a world that is dying as the Lifeline of Jesus to free and release men from bondage and oppression.

Repent fully of every time you have yielded to shame and disgrace and come short of Triumph over any situation in your life and return to the place where Triumph reigns again in your lives and the kingdom of Jesus is prevalent in all your life events. Let the fragrance of the Knowledge of Him exude through you wherever you go in bringing Triumph in all things in Jesus name. Amen.

Today the Holy Spirit in my communion time with Him shared with me the things He wants us to look at and stand against. So today look at these things you need to stand against and never let them again rule or have dominion over you. There are facts of life that Jesus has paid for on your behalf that you have no business allowing them to rob you or threaten you or keep you in bondage one day longer by allowing them the right to master it over you. The Holy Spirit points out that there are things you must not allow to overcome you and suffer which Jesus has paid the price to free you from.

Let us look at 1 John.3:8 Which says these words: He who sins is of the devil, for the devil has sinned from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that He might destroy the works of the devil. Now these words, to us, make us understand without a shadow of doubt the purpose of Jesus for our lives versus the purpose of satan against us.

Sin was initiated in man by satan when Adam submitted to the lie in the garden of eden and ate of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil and since that time sin has been the dominant force against man run by satan to keep us bound and controlled by his wicked twisted heart.

Jesus though, which is what John wants us to know as a fact of life, not a promise we are hoping will come to pass in the future, is that the purpose of Jesus being manifested was to destroy the works of the devil or satan. What are the works of the devil that Jesus went about destroying?

“These are the things the Holy Spirit said we must not allow to rule or have a place in our lives because Jesus has already destroyed them and rendered them impotent against us.”

“Jesus on purpose went after the works of the devil and destroyed them so how can He who destroyed the work of satan then permit it on His beloved ones which we sometimes foolishly believe and accept when satan hits us with sickness, disease or any form of bondage and oppression.”

Just look at what Peter said in Acts.10:38 how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power, who went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with Him. Look at the purpose and intent of Jesus in life He went about doing good not evil and healing all who were oppressed by the devil. “This clearly shows us that oppression is caused and initiated by the devil not God so for that reason I need to refuse to accept any form of oppression in my life no matter how it manifests itself. “

“This is because Jesus went around showing by example that He had the power to destroy all forms of oppression set by the devil and free man from its control and that remains His legacy, policy and immutable counsel which we inherit as His followers.”

I recall the first day when I realized that sickness had no power over me and this truth that I am free from oppression became a reality in my life. I had a headache and the Holy Spirit prompted me to tell it to leave my body as it had no right to oppress me, so I went on to rebuke it in Jesus name and it left me instantly and then tried to resurface again some minutes later as if to play with my mind as to whether it had really left, but again thanks to the Holy Spirit’s help He said speak to it that has no rights to trespass on my body and that settled that matter.

I have walked free of sickness and disease from then to now and rebuke any symptoms that seek to arise and refuse them the right to trespass on my body which is the temple of the Holy Spirit.

The Holy Spirit then took time to teach me how to deal with the contests that would emerge against my trust of God and question His authority over my life. Psalm.2 became the reality in my life to deal with what raged against my relationship with God and because it was a prophecy which Peter alluded to in Acts.4 when they prayed of how people with differences came together to stop and destroy the work of Jesus was fulfilled. I knew that such alliances would come together against me to stop the anointing in my life.

This understanding the Holy Spirit gave me enabled me to deal with all the schemes and strategies satan raised against me and taught me that Jesus wants us strong and of good courage and well able to stand our ground and take territory on His behalf.

The anointing was given to make us always triumph, barrier breakers, world overcomers, burden removers ,yoke destroyers who manifest God and His name on a daily persistent basis that prove that God rules in the affairs of men on earth.

“We are never to allow passivity to have a place in our lives as it is a sign of backsliding.” We are always to be forward moving, pressing into what God has in store ahead for us not behind us. The Lord wants us to be overcomers no matter what the situation is. In the book of Revelation Jesus speaks to seven churches and to each one with their different obstacles He still tells them you must overcome to get to the next level or position of authority.

You would have noticed from all my posts the Holy Spirit always gives me. They always require your cooperation so you will have to do something to get you back active in God . Every instruction of the Holy Spirit is to get you back engaged in action to take more and get into movement that brings greater results.

So today as you have heard these words let the grace that comes with them have the place of victory in you and permeate your whole being to action to disallow any work of the devil from having any place or portion in your life any longer. As it says of Paul and Barnabas they grew bold in Acts.13:46 Then Paul and Barnabas grew bold and said, “It was necessary that the word of God should be spoken to you first; but since you reject it, and judge yourselves unworthy of everlasting life, behold, we turn to the Gentiles.

No more pandering morbidly around complaining at the oppression you are facing or suffering, but boldly saying to it you are leaving now as I will not tolerate you anymore hurting and harming me.

Today say: I rise up in the triumph Jesus has made available to me and resist all forms of oppression from the devil and move into the life free of the law of sin and death. I choose to walk in the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus that sets me free from the Law of sin and death. Oppression of the devil leave my presence now in Jesus name and never come back as I will not allow you place anymore to hurt me in Jesus name.

Watch how that oppression will diminish and become nothing before you as you take your stand in what Jesus did for you to experience and enjoy in life through His suffering on your behalf so you do not have to suffer it anymore.

Receive this word with your whole heart and don’t let it go no matter what tries to challenge it ,but remain steadfast and immovable in its reality as the grace in these words permeates your being. Then you will experience freedom of the highest order that puts you in the glory zone that God purposed for you to walk in in Jesus name. Amen.

This morning the Holy Spirit in my communion time with Him spoke to me about not asking the Lord for anything that is conceivable. He wants us to graduate to the place where we only think and act as Jesus acts and does.

The Holy Spirit reminded me that on the day Jesus fed the five thousand in John.6 He did not plan the meal and how much He would need, that is the cost necessary to accomplish that goal but just allowed the direction from the Holy Spirit to lead Him how to approach the event that arose.

You will notice that Jesus asked Philip the question: where will we buy bread to feed these people to eat bread, though Jesus Himself knew what He would do. Jesus was inviting Philip to walk in a place where he Philip could walk in what is inconceivable and accomplish a marvel though they had not planned in the natural way for the event.

My prayers the Holy Spirit said need to graduate to where I ask for what is not humanly conceivable, but for what will startle men and leave them speechless as the Lord performs His will.The Holy Spirit reminded me that I have been crucified with Christ which points out that I am dead and gone but Christ has taken up residence in me and now wants to express His faith through me to show just how Awesome and stupendous His power is.

This is because His name is greater than any other name and can do anything at any given point in time. Jesus in John.6 did not need money to buy bread, but He needed faith to believe that God could multiply five loaves and two fish to feed five thousand men plus women and children and have enough left over to fill twelve baskets.

Let us look at what was required to make that happen. Jesus we see had not checked the account that morning with Judas to ascertain that there was enough in the account to cover that expense. He just lined up His mind to the Holy Spirit and what and how the Holy Spirit would direct Him to do to make the impossible possible.

Jesus did not spend that morning tossing over and over in His mind how that feeding would take place. He had absolute confidence in what the Holy Spirit would lead Him to do and remained in praise of His Father’s name and only spoke the words His Father directed and fully cooperated with the instructions of the Holy Spirit and went on to perform that marvel that startled men who observed that event and partook of the bread and fish.

To show you clearly that Jesus wants us to be partakers of working such miracles in the now of our lives, the Holy Spirit pointed out to me to listen to what He Jesus said to the disciples in Matthew.16:9-11 Do you not yet understand, or remember the five loaves of the five thousand and how many baskets you took up? 10 Nor the seven loaves of the four thousand and how many large baskets you took up? 11 How is it you do not understand that I did not speak to you concerning bread?

Jesus had expected that the disciples should have understood the process of what happened in each miracle incident of the feeding thousands of people from virtually nothing.

From Jesus’s perspective they should have developed from those two events an unshakeable faith and trust that the Lord could do miracles from nothing without any prior notice being given to them ahead of time. Verse.8 makes it perfectly clear Jesus was not impressed with their comprehension of spiritual matters as yet when He said these words But Jesus, being aware of it, said to them, “O you of little faith, why do you reason among yourselves because you have brought no bread?

Your trust is still way below par because you are struggling concerning provision on such a small matter for your need having experienced far greater provision before on occasions that thousands were fed off the cuff without prior financial preparation.

This is the place the Holy Spirit is pointing out to me this morning that He expects us to be walking in this season where the faith of Jesus will be demonstrated on the earth again for men to see, marvel and be converted to serve Him because He Jesus has the answers for life’s questions.

We should be looking at and expecting to walk in what we as humans cannot conceive or fathom in our hearts, but which the Holy Spirit can birth in the heart that surrenders totally to Him to express Jesus’s will through them. It is clear that dead men don’t do anything but can be carried around anywhere the carrier of the body chooses and be placed there and displayed at the behest of the carrier.

This is why the Apostle Paul pointed out in Galatians.2:20 that we have been crucified with Christ and it is no longer we who live but Christ who lives in us and the life we now live in the flesh, we live by the faith of the Son of God who gave His life for us. What should be manifested through us should be Jesus in action not our weakness which points to the fact we are still alive.

“The Holy Spirit does not need us alive fighting Him but dead totally submitted to Him.”

Jesus in John.21:18 said these words to Peter Most assuredly, I say to you, when you were younger, you girded yourself and walked where you wished; but when you are old, you will stretch out your hands, and another will gird you and carry you where you do not wish.”

Peter, Jesus was pointing out would be so dead that He allowed the Holy Spirit to gird him and take him where Peter would not go on his own initiative. This is what the Holy Spirit is alluding to this morning in His conversation to me that we should be asking Him to do what is inconceivable from our perspective but is the mind of Christ for us to accomplish on behalf of Jesus by the power of the Holy Spirit.

For my part there were two countries I said I would never go to in my life again Sierra Leone and Nigeria but the Holy Spirit changed my heart on both of them and gave me a love for the people that I never believed I could ever have and I have ministered for Jesus to them and had wonderful miraculous results. I recall the season I was praying for both Countries by direction of the Holy Spirit and after that started just coming in contact with Nigerians and Sierra Leonians who needed my spiritual help in London, then Botswana and the USA.

We cannot run away from the Lord’s plan for our lives as it will keep surfacing in our events and we need to just submit to His will and let the Holy Spirit have His way in us. My parents were Sierra Leoneans but when I left Sierra Leone in 1985 and I thought then that things were bad. I had said I would never come back to this Country. I called it wretched but in 1992 the Lord melted my heart and I started praying for it with the love and grace of the Holy Spirit.

The Holy Spirit began to give me visions of me ministering there which went on to manifest when I went there in 1993 and saw the Lord through the Holy Spirit do such marvels in terms of miracles, signs and wonders that I grew to love the people and the country again and have been there often on so many more occasions over the years and seen the hand of the Lord manifested in many ways.

In conclusion this morning I pray that these words will penetrate your hearts and you will find the grace supplied through them to love what you have hated and line up back with the purpose of God for your lives and go on to receive and walk in all Jesus has purposed for you to do for His glory outside your comfort zone in places you never believed you would ever go to and, thus glorify the name of Jesus.

Let your heart also be stirred to walk in the place with the Holy Spirit where you only ask what is naturally inconceivable to you but which is the heart and mind of Christ for you.

I beseech you to surrender your heart, soul that is your (mind, will ,emotions, intellect) and body to go do what the Holy Spirit leads and guides you to do which contravenes natural law but will show forth the might of the hand of the Lord on your behalf in the name of Jesus. Amen.

The Holy Spirit this morning in my communion time with Him shared many things with me to reposition me for what is ahead and asked me to share some realities with you that we miss and thus are robbed at the crucial moments of time, when we should be engaging with the Holy Spirit, by distractions based on desires which we have that suddenly make themselves available for fulfillment and demand our immediate attention or else we miss out on the offer presented.

Well the Holy Spirit wants you to begin rejecting those offers that come to take you away from focussing in and pressing into the promise of God rather than the satisfaction of the desire being fulfilled that pleases the soul but rejects the Master Jesus’ Plan for your life and, you begin a new process of re-running that cycle again.

Only this time with more detours and dilemmas because you are unaware of what happened the first time and believe by faith now that you will surely make it and come through even though you are in deception and need a way out quickly back to union with the Lord.

As the Lord pointed out to Jeremiah, return to Me so I can return to you. Jeremiah was unaware that the Lord was not where he thought but had left and Jeremiah needed to come back to the place of fellowship with the Lord.

The Holy Spirit wants you to know why the Apostle Paul made certain statements or more like commandments about being filled with the Spirit , walking in the Spirit and not letting the flesh have its expression in us. In Galatians.3-6.

If you walk in the Holy Spirit you will not fulfill the lusts and desires of the flesh because the Holy Spirit does not have such desires He needs fulfilled. For that reason He will lead you in a completely different direction and, that is why it is necessary to be in communion with the Holy Spirit to know when, where and how to navigate into what the Lord has prepared for you.

Rather than that which seems right to your emotions or feelings or desires which want fulfillment in the now, despite an uneasy feeling and, check that the Holy Spirit is warning about which you will override unless you are filled with the Holy Spirit and what He dictates.

Jesus pointed out in John.5:30 that I have no other desire than what my Father wants me to do and so I will decide rightly on what I hear because I only want to please Him and not myself.

This is the position the Holy Spirit wants us to adopt daily so we will not miss Him in any situation because we are seeking the Fathers will and not ours.

With our total surrender to the will of the father and the grace it brings we will break the war in us to want our desire and give our full agreement to the Holy Spirit. This agreement with the Holy Spirit will empower us to do the Lord’s will. This will need to be done daily with the Holy Spirit for us to enjoy the continuous benefit of His input.

It is not a one time event that then makes us great and we can continuously flow from that greatness. It is a daily event which we should approach humbly and see our weakness and allow the Lord to transform it with His strength that makes us triumphant in all things which is what the Holy Spirit desires to make of us for the glory of Jesus.

May you today find the grace in these words and transition into this place in the Holy Spirit where the Lord’s will becomes your desire and passion and all your energy goes to being ready and available for His will to be done in your life. Have a favorable day in Jesus’ name. Amen.

The Holy Spirit in my communion time with Him said: today you need to listen to My voice in order that you may grow in wisdom. He reminded me that even Jesus increased in wisdom and stature which resulted in extra favour with God and men. Luke.2:40

So how much more do we need God’s wisdom each day to grow and it is the cumulative progression of each day of the wisdom we receive and imbibe which is building in us that will result in our growth in the Spirit. This will result in a greater level of God’s favour we will be able to walk in.

The Holy Spirit pointed out that it is through the wisdom from God we receive and walk in that our hearts will be drawn into understanding of God’s ways. This reality in turn is what empowers us to make the right decisions which means we will have God sized results.

“

Never minimize the impact of what increased wisdom will do in your lives. It is priceless, so go after it with all your heart”

Our lives are then laden with miraculous results which keep on becoming greater each day and have far greater impact on those around us and impact lives for the kingdom of Jesus of which there is no end to its expansion.

As Jesus pointed out to the Jews who questioned His authenticity in John.5:20 when He said and ”greater works than these will my Father do that will cause you to marvel.” Jesus answered His critics with a demonstration of greater miracles that just absolutely startled them.

So my beloved decide today to listen more attentively and closely to the direction and leading of the Holy Spirit and do whatever He says to do daily and watch your progression in the Spirit rise and your understanding of the Spirit make you take decisions that Lift you up and remove shame and disgrace off you and cause you to walk in greater glory by the power of the Holy Spirit. Isaiah.25:8

Let the grace in these words take a hold of you and propel you into having a God measured day full of rich fulfillment in Jesus Name. Amen.

The Holy Spirit in my communion time this morning reminded me of this conversation with Him about questions we have in our hearts and what we need to do to resolve these niggling issues that potentially become strongholds against us if we do not respond to them correctly and allow them to brew in our hearts, as many of you are in that place now.

So today the questions you have for the Lord that you ask anyway in your subconscious the Lord wants you to voice them to Him so that you remove any uncertainty from your trust and rest your hope fully on what the Lord has said rather than the unanswered question of the heart.

When a question remains unanswered in your heart it is breeding ground for double mindedness which your enemy loves, and you know that being double minded means you will not receive anything from the Lord. James.1:6-8 But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind. 7 For let not that man suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord; 8 he is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.

Your confidence in God and His ability to do for you is vital in your trust walk and in effect guarantees you will not let go even under the severest pressure that comes to steal the word from you.

It is far more important to resolve your query with the Lord than leave it unattended in your heart. Remember the heart is deceitful above all things and loves fantasy stories which the enemy is always willing to supply on demand as long as that will cause you to leave the path of the Lord.

Let the Holy Spirit confirm in your heart whatever questions you have and correct anything amiss and keep you in line with the promise you are headed towards. This keeps you focused on the important things you must give attention to do, rather than just drifting along without purpose.

I have found that letting the Holy Spirit know your weakness and concern means He can supply you with more grace to overcome whatever shows up in opposition against the plan of God.

On several occasions I have told the Holy Spirit that I am struggling to believe that things will turn from impossible to possible when the pressure has been very severe. I have then asked Him to help my unbelief so that at this last moment I do not compromise my result by saying or doing something stupid or rash.

On each of these occasions He has helped me by giving me more tenacity, more strength to pray and cover more ground, sometimes wisdom to take an action that stuns the enemy and many times a greater peace that comes which defies every obstacle and laughs at the face of the challenge.

There is no specific way I can say He always uses, but He gives an answer that brings the solution. Therefore it is best to always ask Him for help and not presume you know His heart.

Jesus described the Holy Spirit in John.14 as a Helper and that is His nature to offer help and the necessary counsel out of every situation. The Holy Spirit knows everything including what your enemy is doing and planning against you and has ways to reduce enemy plans to nothing and give you insight to stay away from the area of attack and even enable you to scale and go through the attack coming out unharmed as He did with Shadrack, Meshach and Abednego in the fiery furnace that was heated seven times hotter because they refused to bow.

He also has the power to change the nature of animals as He did for Elijah causing ravens to bring him burgers each day in a season of famine. Also with Daniel when lions became his friends and provided a comforting pillow for his head while in their den because He refused to bow.

In real terms the Holy Spirit has every possible answer you could ever need in any and every situation to bring you out, but you must request it of Him. Never fear to ask the Holy Spirit what to do and how to do it and wait for His answer.

Never prejudge what you think the Holy Spirit will say but wait for what He says, as most times it will be often far outside what you thought, so do not presume on Him as He will not honor your presumption.

So today ask the Holy Spirit any questions you have and settle your heart with the Lord and have the necessary confidence and assurance you need.

Faith is not presumption, it is knowing Jesus authored what you are expecting and will fulfill it by bringing it to pass in real life and the Holy Spirit is with you to help you inherit everything Jesus wants you to experience and do on earth for His name sake that brings Him glory. Your life will dramatically change as you imbibe this reality and allow this grace to work in your life Jesus’ name. Amen.

The Holy Spirit this morning in my communion time with Him spoke to me that He wants to release and free all those who have been taken captive as hostages, kidnapped and robbed of destiny.

As I was worshiping and meditating on the word He gave me for today He pointed out to me that He wanted to release those who had been kidnapped and taken captive through various situations that occurred in the past where you were led astray by various so called lucrative offers that seemed too good to pass on and these had brought you into a place where there seems to be no return passage out of.

I will now explain further the word the Holy Spirit gave me so you have a truth reality concept upon which you can stand when your deliverance is contested.

As long as we are in this world everything God says or does for us can and will be contested and we need to build a fortress of defense around every deliverance the Lord gives us so that when it is challenged we do not cave into the pressure and go back into prison or bondage.

When I started out following Jesus the Holy Spirit He took me through Psalm.2 as my defense for everything He had taught me. In Psalm.2:1-3 we read these words: Why do the nations rage,And the people plot a vain thing? 2 The kings of the earth set themselves,And the rulers take counsel together, Against the Lord and against His Anointed, saying, 3 “Let us break Their bonds in pieces And cast away Their cords from us.”

The Holy Spirit went on to teach me that so many years before Jesus walked the earth in ministry this plan was set up against Him by satan which He would need to face and defeat and this fact is reiterated by Peter in Acts.4 where they as His disciples come under attack. The same attack for speaking in the name of Jesus and are threatened not to speak in His name.

They flatly refuse to heed the words of men and gain a new boldness to speak by the Holy Spirit and go on to manifest higher levels of God’s glory. Let this be your stance in every opposition to the will of God against your life. “I refuse to bow to anything but the word of Jesus to me.”

This understanding meant I knew from day one that no matter what God said to me men controlled by satan would challenge it. This is because satan is against the plan of God and will stir whoever has natural power or authority to seek to stop your advancement in the Kingdom and threaten you to cease believing and bow to the pressure to quit and come under bondage.

Through this understanding the Holy Spirit gave me truth that meant I built a defense against all assaults satan would send my way to cause me to detour from the plan of Jesus for my life.

Jesus is able to free us in an instant at any time but our ability to keep the deliverance is what is necessary for us to build up and maintain so we don’t slide back into bondage.

The Holy Spirit wants you to be ready to receive your freedom today but wants you armed with fortification not to ever lose again what you have gained from the Lord and become kidnapped and a hostage of satan who is robbed of their destiny.

As I meditated on Proverbs.5:23 in the Passion translation which reads Those who choose wickedness die for lack of self-control, for their foolish ways lead them astray, carrying them away as hostages kidnapped captives robbed of destiny.

The Holy Spirit clearly pointed out to me that many had been kidnapped as captives which means they had no chance of escape because they were somehow ambushed into a place they were caught and could not help it. For this very reason the Holy Spirit is going to release you as He did Peter in Acts.12 from the prison of Herod.

“This time however with the added support built into your heart through the word of the Holy Spirit that means you will not be taken again captive by kidnapping, because you have the word of the Lord to sustain you and empower you to resist all attempts to scare and drive you to submission.”

“You will no longer lose your deliverance but will keep it and become a beacon of light to a dying world and an emblem of praise to the name of Jesus.”

Therefore today take heed to these words and embrace the grace released through them and rise up and out from the prisons, dungeons and sequestered places you have been driven to and come into the glory of the covenant Jesus has prepared for you in His Kingdom and walk in the fullness of life.

May you today be so released that your freedom speaks so loud and clear that others see just how much the Lord has done to rescue you that they confess His Lordship and glorify His name in your lives as you demonstrate His power through signs, wonders and miracles in Jesus name. Amen.

The Holy Spirit this morning in my communion time reminded me to share with you the importance and priority of setting time on purpose to meet with Him to be taught and instructed in righteousness as your daily habit. I know you will say that you give Him time each day, but He wants you to now prioritize the time you take with Him and bring structure to it. Make it as you would plan each day to go to work for your employer.

You will not be lazy in being at work on time because you are looking at the salary your boss will give you each month and for that reason you will even wake up earlier to ensure that you are available early to start your day of work for your employer to demonstrate your commitment to the role.

Well today that is the mindset that the Holy Spirit wants you to apply to your walk with Him as that shows how valuable you think Him to be to you and your commitment is demonstrated in what you are willing to do to please Him.

In Luke.5:16 we read these words about Jesus However, He made a practice of withdrawing to remote places in order to pray. Now you can see from this passage that Jesus made withdrawing from people His practice to find deserted places so that He could pray and spend time with the Holy Spirit to know what He ought to do because that was His priority.

Now we know that Jesus was sent to help people because the Father sent Him to save the souls of men, so you would think that His practice would be to withdraw from God and spend time with the people because that is how He would be able to reach them by being with them and convincing them to change.

However His practice was to withdraw from men and pursue God and then from the overflow of being with God give man what he needed. This practice worked perfectly and enabled Jesus to accomplish the plan of God to the letter and avail us of so great a salvation.

For some reason we seem to believe that giving the Lord prescribed and arranged time is a crime or bondage and we can be slack with that because doing things for people is the priority.

Well Jesus said that we should seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and then all other things will be added unto us. He also said that except we deny ourselves daily, take up our cross and follow Him we cannot become His disciples. Well I have just pointed out what Jesus made His practice and we will need to follow that practice if we are truly following Him because that is what He did and that cannot be denied.

In the book of Acts.6:2-4 we read these words. Then the twelve summoned the multitude of the disciples and said, “It is not desirable that we should leave the word of God and serve tables. 3 Therefore, brethren, seek out from among you seven men of good reputation, full of the Holy Spirit and wisdom, whom we may appoint over this business; 4 but we will give ourselves continually to prayer and to the ministry of the word.

Now the followers of Jesus make the priority not serving people but giving themselves to prayer continually and then ministry of the word to people which is exactly what they observed their Master Jesus do and saw how successful that was and followed suit.

When conflict arose about how they used their time they clearly pointed out that it is undesirable to leave the practice of prayer and seeking God to minister to people’s needs because that is our priority. Just look at their results as they kept the priority of withdrawing to seek God, their practice.

Well today the Holy Spirit wants to remind you and stir you back up to the place of prioritizing your time with Him as your practice again and see how your life will again begin to take the God shape and progress more rapidly and produce much more fruit as your priority shifts back to your original practice to withdraw and be filled with the Holy Spirit and come out loaded with the Presence and power of God that will change lives eternally and expand His reach on the earth.

I pray today that as you hear these words, zeal for the Fathers house will again consume your hearts and minds and, propel you through the grace supplied to you by the Holy Spirit to be about the Father’s business of withdrawing to be empowered by the Holy Spirit and returning to show forth His glory to men and that cycle continuing day by day so that the name of Jesus is glorified and His Kingdom expanded on the earth. Let this be your purpose in Jesus’ name. Amen.

This morning the Holy Spirit ministered to me in my communion time saying; To the person who feels like good has been eluding you and answers of peace don’t seem to be working for you and the evil situation seems to just continue and there seems no way out.

Jesus says to you this morning no matter who has not helped you or supported your cause,but laughs at your plight.

Would you be made whole again?

Put the reasons for failure aside, Jesus is here now with a new beginning.

Can you accept and receive His hand reaching out to you now.

Please don’t let the excuses that have hindered you speak of failure for you any longer.

Jesus has a mission for you today, and that is to get up and out of that lie that your situation will never change.

Today is as the miracle Jesus performed on the man in John.5:8 who got up and was totally healed as Jesus commanded Him and he obeyed.

So today as you hear this word and get up,and whatever had held you bound or kept you in that position for these years will leave you and you will walk free today and experience a changed life free from that scene of defeat and shame you have lived in.

Receive the grace in this word today and experience years of pain vanish and your freedom restored back to you and you being able to live again in Jesus Name.

Rise in the strength of the Lord today in Jesus Name. Amen
