The Word Of The Lord For The 31/07/2024. From Emile Luke.

The Holy Spirit this morning in my communion time with Him said we are in the preliminary stages of seeing and knowing the realm of what the Father of glory wants us to know and walk in at present.

Although the things we are receiving are mighty and beyond what we have experienced before, we need to be humble and realize there is far more than these things we are receiving. For this reason we need to guard against pride in what we now have. We must of necessity press into what is to come because that is far greater.

The Holy Spirit reminded me that a man’s heart is tested when he is given a measure of influence or notoriety and what he then goes on to do will determine the progress he will make. God tested the heart of Abraham. Genesis.22:1-19. This is not the time to bask in the high level of revelation you are walking in great as it is, but in seeking out more how to steward our relationship with the Holy Spirit.

Then walk in humility with what the Lord wants to reveal further to His Own lovers. This is a prerequisite for the greater unfolding of the fullness of His glory to be manifested at this Auspicious time in the kingdom of God’s glory being made real in the earth for men to see and behold together.

In this season both sinner and saint/ believer and disciple will see the glory of the Lord revealed. Each in direct proportion to their way and pattern of life will be rewarded commensurate with what they have done towards the Lord.

The universal law of the Lord of seedtime and harvest will not cease as long as the earth remains and, will be made real and now harvest time for years of sowing will be brought into manifestation for both the righteous and evil doer, so it is incumbent on us His lovers to keep in humility and close union with the Holy Spirit to ensure we are not robbed of our inheritance that we have labored for over many years.Genesis.8:22.

There is no time to grow weary in well doing but to press more into sowing into righteousness so that the harvests will be overlapping, overflowing and overtaking our lives with the radiance of God’s glory as we walk in full knowledge, insight and understanding of what is happening.

This permitting us to interpret the times accurately by the Spirit of the Lord and be called upon to say what the Lord is speaking over nations and determining the state of affairs according to His will and not the desires of men which bring death and destruction.

Beloved it is time for you to hunker down in the deeper knowledge of the Holy Spirit and keep a close keen ear for where He is leading and being willing to move in the now of the Spirit as Philip was moved in the book of Acts.8:26-40 from an outpouring in Samaria, a mass movement of the Spirit that took a city to a desert to introduce the Kingdom to a eunuch who would carry the kingdom message to Africa.

Then to be prepared again to be transported to another region in the Spirit to manifest the reality of the Kingdom.

This level of yieldedness is what the Lord is seeking for us to be willing to walk in and then press in for more. We are never to rest in what happened and bask in past success but to move into the coming glory. We need to present ourselves ready to flow with the Holy Spirit’ agenda to manifest the Kingdom in all its glory for men to see.

I pray that as you hear these words the Spirit of contrition will overtake your desire and move you to respond with Yes Lord. I am willing to follow your path and move with the Holy Spirit to manifest the full cycle of harvest for the Kingdom.

I choose to be a willing participant and partaker of the divine nature of the Lord in this move of God. Walking in the mountain life that has come to stay. Living out Heaven on earth. Knowing God’s ways and walking in His paths.

Rise up and ascend into this place the Lord has prepared for you and throw off any weight and incumbrance that hindered you moving forward. Move rapidly in the new grace being supplied for this work of the Holy Spirit to be manifested in Jesus’ name. Amen.

The Word Of The Lord For The 30/07/2024. From Emile Luke.

The Holy Spirit this morning emphasized to me why we need to look to Him for insight and understanding in life and not rely on our own understanding which is limited. Proverbs.3:5 & 6 says Trust in the Lord with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding; 6 In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths.

The key phrase in this passage is lean not or trust not your own version of the event, but acknowledge that the Lord has a broader view of things that you are unable to see into which shows a completely different viewpoint from your limited scope.

Well today the Holy Spirit wants you to see from the revealed word the viewpoint of the Lord as revealed from the book of Revelation of how God sees and looks at things versus our limitation in sight. You will understand clearly the advantage of God’s sight once you see the truth from this scripture in the book of Revelation.

Jesus always said let him that has eyes to see let him see and he that has ears to hear let him hear what the Spirit is saying which always goes beyond our natural eyes and ears because we all have them to view things in the natural realm.

In Revelation.4:6 it reads Before the throne there was a sea of glass, like crystal. And in the midst of the throne, and around the throne, were four living creatures full of eyes in front and in back. Now look at the living creatures and their characteristics: full of eyes plural in front and behind.

They see ahead to lead and guide the way forward but also see behind to cover every possible incident or attack that could be launched from behind while moving forward, all at the same time. We on the other hand can only visualize what we focus on whether ahead or behind at a given point.

We are unable to cover both angles. A very limited scope of view and that is why we cannot lean on our own viewpoint. We desperately need the advantage of the Holy Spirit helping us.

However there is still more to the scope the Lord sees from which I am going to share now. In Revelation.4:8a it says The four living creatures, each having six wings, were full of eyes around and within. Again the four living creatures were full of eyes this time around and within pointing out they are seeing into everything with multiple eyes all around every situation and within the situation, so no part of anything is missing from their sight.

They have absolutely no blind side which is what we as humans have which hinders and hampers us because we could not see into that area but have to make presumptions on what lay in there. The Lord makes no presumption on facts. He knows the full picture and that’s why we need His input on all things no matter how promising they look from the natural to make the right choice.

When the Holy Spirit first introduced these scriptures to me from Revelation my ability to see things expanded to such a degree that I was seeing things happening in Nations so much so that I was privy to the conversations going on in the President’s house. I had answers to the issues they were facing and the Lord had me pray out the solutions in both Sierra Leone and Botswana.

That is why God says in Jeremiah.29:10 I know the thoughts I think towards you, thoughts of good not evil to give you a hope, a future and an expected end. There is a way that looks/seems right to man or in our sight but the end is destruction. The difference is vast so we need to trust the Holy Spirit all the more.

We do not see the full picture and can therefore be easily deceived and that is why we cannot lean on our own understanding but should trust and rely on the insight of the Holy Spirit.

I remember clearly the day the Holy Spirit revealed this truth to me from the book of Revelation and said this same man John receiving this truth used to lean on the bosom of Jesus. Just imagine he himself is stunned to the point of falling to the ground as a dead man seeing his resurrected Master in His glory. John needed His Master Jesus to pick him up to understand this new realm of glory.

From that day I knew that anything I needed to know in the Spirit, I would receive as I sought the Lord to have the insight of the Holy Spirit. This meant I stopped coming short because of my lack of full insight and I made up my mind to trust the Holy Spirit and His analysis of every situation rather than what it looked like to me.

The Holy Spirit has never been wrong because He sees the complete picture and I choose to believe Him more than my study and knowledge which are limited.

Now the book of Revelation is an unveiling of Jesus and who He is from where He now is seated in glory. Not of who Jesus was on earth in His limitation of a human body. Even John who had experienced Jesus in the earthly realm, when he gets to see Jesus in His brand new revealed state and His position of glory.

John has to adapt and change from his limited perspective of the Jesus he knew and has to embrace the reality of who Jesus glorified is. As he is given permission to see Jesus in His present glorified status. John is startled at who Jesus is in heaven and the Might, splendor, majesty and glory that exudes in Him compared to his experience of Jesus on earth.

I have learnt from experience that each time I spend in the book of Revelation my spiritual eyes open up to new facets of who Jesus is and the greater scope of His authority which makes me more capable to overcome and win more triumphs in situations. This is because I received greater truth revealed to me which Jesus pointed out the Holy Spirit would lead us into: so that we might be free and walk in the power and authority of Jesus.

Today having received these words may the grace to see further and deeper from the Lord’s perspective become your portion and may you become clearer in understanding the will of the Lord for your life and walking in the path He set for you rather than paths you think or have imagined which only bring failure.

I pray today that the inner parts of your heart will open up to insight from the Lord that gives you the whole picture of things rather than little snippets that encourage pride of knowledge which then rob you of God results because you are living on presumption rather than real faith and truth which bring freedom.

Have a wonderful day of exploration and discovery of why you have missed out on so much because you did not see the full picture and watch how the Holy Spirit brings you out and leads you on now forward in victory with full clarity in Jesus’ name. Amen.

The Word Of The Lord For The 28/07/2024. From Emile Luke.

The Holy Spirit wants me to share with you a truth about what Jesus said we as His followers have as the advantage in life over those in the world. He wants us to destroy the notion that we as believers are aliens in this world and should be looking to depart from this wicked world and go to heaven.

Jesus wants us to know that we have the advantage on earth, therefore we should live victorious and triumphant over evil. We are the custodians of the earth, not the escapists. We as followers of Jesus are the ones with the authority to determine what happens on the earth. We are not the receivers of the garbage satan wants us in fear to receive and be in oppression to. John.10:10.

Let’s look at what Jesus spoke in Mark.4:11 And He said to them, “To you it has been given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God; but to those who are outside, all things come in parables, 12 so that‘, Seeing they may see and not perceive, And hearing they may hear and not understand ;Lest they should turn, And their sins be forgiven them.’

” First of all it is the will of Jesus for you to know the things of the Kingdom because He has given us the ability to know. You ask so why don’t we know? If you look further on in verse 14 Jesus asks how it is that you do not understand this parable?

In other words what makes us so dull that we miss what is being said. We need as an absolute necessity to apply ourselves to know and gain the necessary knowledge by asking the Lord to explain to us His workings. Then know them in reality and walk in His ways.

The power to know and knowing are two different things altogether. Having the ability to do something and doing or applying the ability to that thing are very different. An expert is not qualified until he possesses the skill and ability to do so by reason of experience and not theory.

We must put action into getting to know the mystery of the Kingdom. It is no use saying I know or have the ability to know. Then do nothing with it.

We need to give attention to getting to know the Kingdom by studying all that the King Jesus says and understanding what He wants. Then applying the wisdom of how things operate from His viewpoint.Ephesians.1:17-23.

A clear example of this would be. What if Peter had not noticed that Jesus answered the fig tree in Mark.11. Would Peter then have gone on to notice and observe the uprooting of the tree by the next day. It was Peter’s observation of what Jesus said that enabled him to ask the right question.

This action on Peter’s part stirred up Jesus to give this comprehensive lesson on the power of faith in the heart of the followers of Jesus to command mountains to move and they have to obey our voice.

If Peter just let that experience pass by and did not engage to know the truth. It is clear Jesus was not going to volunteer that explanation. We have to ask the questions of the Lord to receive answers.Luke.11:10.

Peter agreed to follow Jesus and it was now his responsibility to ask the relevant questions on things that happened so he could understand and walk in them just as Jesus did.

The disciples also noticed from experience of Jesus’s daily pattern that Jesus prayed often. Jesus made it a priority to find deserted places to go and pray. Thus in view of the fact that Jesus had remarkable answers after he came from prayer they concluded that there is a direct correlation between his prayer and the miracles Jesus performed. So based on that reality they observed they asked the right question of Jesus, which is to teach us how to pray?

Rather than how to heal men or cast out demons from people because it appeared that prayer covered all things. By working through this observation of reality in the life of Jesus they came to the conclusion that once you have spoken and communicated with the Lord in prayer great things would happen. Which was always the case. Then since Jesus made it His practice then we of necessity must follow suit to have identical results. See Acts.6:2 & 4.

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. But we will give ourselves continually to prayer and to the ministry of the word.”

Not we will give ourselves to understanding demons and their operations but to talking with God continually. The result being that we will always have success just as our master Jesus had. That is exactly what happened: they applied their ability to know the things of the Kingdom by seeking the King Jesus and obeying what He spoke through the Holy Spirit to them and triumphed in every situation.

This is exactly what the Holy Spirit wants you to experience. So go ahead and apply yourself by seeking in prayer what Jesus has made ready for you to do, by hearing it, understanding it. Then take the necessary action the Holy Spirit says and have the conclusion through the manifestation of the miracle by the power of the Holy Spirit which brings glory to the name and Kingdom of Jesus.

Remember it is your God given right to know the things of the Kingdom. You have no right to be ignorant of the devices of the enemy to rob you of the knowledge of God. This is why satan comes with deception to steal, kill and destroy your knowledge of God.

Remember it is the Lord that said the knowledge of the glory of the Lord shall cover the earth as the waters cover the sea. Habakkuk.2:14. You should be so loaded with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord in manifestation that all we see is the glory of the Lord not our weakness, failures and compromise.

I pray today that these words would ignite in you a new passion and overwhelming desire for more of the Holy Spirit. Let the grace supplied abound towards you to go in pursuit to know more concerning the operations of the Holy Spirit. Then let the result be that the Kingdom of Jesus will be seen more and more through your life as you walk in more understanding and knowledge of the work of the Lord which is your mission on earth.

To serve the purpose of Jesus on earth and glorify His Name. Have a triumphant day in the fullness of the Holy Spirit in Jesus’ name. Amen.

The Word Of The Lord For The 26/07/2024. From Emile Luke.

The Holy Spirit wants you to know today just how valuable you are to the Father of lights in whom there is no variation and shadow of turning. You must awaken to who God wants you to be and has created you to be for His glory.

“You are no longer a sinner saved by grace but you are the son/daughter of your Father of glory. You were created for glory not shame or disgrace. You were created to reflect who God is to nations of people and demonstrate His power for all to see and know who God is. The father of glory.”

“This is your true position in God seated with Christ in heavenly places filled and blessed with every spiritual blessing (empowerment to prosper in all things.)” Ephesians.1:3.

“Let this reality flood your whole being today and clean out all lies and debris that you have allowed to poison your belief system of your position in God.”

You have wondered why so many attacks and assaults have been launched against you as you are not very relevant or important in the scope of things on earth. Well wake up to reality no one launches nuclear weapons against a small insignificant village they want to destroy.

If heavy duty equipment is being launched against you, then know for certain that the enemy knows that what is with you is far greater than you see and know. He is so convinced about God’s plan for you and is taking no chances on you winning by employing his strongest weapons to intimidate you to surrender and cave in under immense pressure so that what God intended and purposed for you will not become your reality.

You therefore must arise and shine for your light has come and the glory of the Lord is risen upon your life. Isaiah.60:1. Walk in the reality of who God has created you to be and destroy the works of the devil. Let him be the one to flee, not you.

You cannot afford to sit there saying I am nothing when you need to be arising, saying and doing what the Lord ordained for you to do in this time which is to reflect Jesus’s glory on the earth.

The Holy Spirit emphasizes to you that you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a peculiar person, called to proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light, who once were not a people but are now the people of God, who had not obtained mercy but now have obtained mercy. 1 Peter.2:9 & 10. This is who you are regardless of what you think, feel or presume or believe.

You must change your mind and line up with the truth of who God says that you are because that is your identity.

“What the Father says you are is your true identity. Never forget that reality.”Luke.3:22.

When the Lord approached Gideon in the book of Judges.6:12 And the Angel of the Lord appeared to him, and said to him, “The Lord is with you, you mighty man of valor!” Now the reality was that Gideon was in fear threshing wheat in a wine press but the Lord does not address that Gideon, infused with lies, but the one He has chosen and appointed to bring down Midian.

Mighty man of valor Gideon thought! What have I done or am I doing that qualifies me to be called that, the Lord is not with me and we are nothing but slaves under tyrants. If God was really here with us there would be proof of that. We need to see miracles as proof of God being all around us.

God spoke into Gideon who he was from the Lord’s perspective and not the failures of the past, because from that day onwards the name Gideon was associated with victory after victory and triumph galore. Gideon did go on to bring down Midian as one man and became a great ambassador for the kingdom of God. Gideon became a mighty force to be reckoned with in Israel through miraculous acts God did through his hands.

Well in like manner this morning the Lord is awakening you to who you are in Him and the plan He has to use you to establish for Him on earth and as Gideon you need to change and accept who God says you are.

Drop and throw down the lies of failure and nothingness of person, then shine out what God has intended and purposed for you to do and get busy doing so. Then watch lives change and come into the radiance of who God really is and manifest His glory on earth for men to see and be transformed into vessels of glory.

Throw off the shackles of defeat and clothes of shame just as blind Bartimaeus did to approach Jesus with a fresh view of who He says you are. Not the opinions of men and what circumstances or situations say you are a failure.

You are a chosen one and you will reflect and demonstrate the praises of Him who has called you out from darkness into marvelous light that shines ever brighter unto the perfect day.

Let these words infuse you with the grace embedded in them to get up and start walking in this reality and bring glory to your Father in heaven through and by the power of the Holy Spirit in Jesus’ name. Amen.

The Word Of The Lord For The 25/07/2024. From Emile Luke.

This morning in my communion time with the Holy Spirit He spoke to me concerning how we are using the gifts and inheritance that has been provided for us by the Holy Spirit. As this will determine our success and failure in most life situations. He pointed out to me that as an example when Jude speaks at the end of his letter of us building ourselves up upon our most holy faith by praying in the Spirit.

Are we doing exactly that or are we just thankful for being able to pray in the spirit but not doing the building up? Our ability to pray in the Spirit is one thing but our building ourselves up is a completely different exercise.

The Holy Spirit pointed out that we can have all the gym equipment at our disposal but it is the using of the equipment that will build our muscles up and give us a well trimmed body. In like manner the Holy Spirit emphasized to me that our effective daily use of praying in the Holy Spirit is what will build our spirits up on our most holy faith.

In John.7:37 & 38 we read these words spoken by Jesus. On the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried out, saying, “If anyone thirsts, let him come to Me and drink. 38 He who believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, out of his heart will flow rivers of living water.” The Holy Spirit said to me how much are we allowing the rivers of living water to flow out of our hearts to reach others and provide the necessary water to quench their thirst.

Are we living full of the Spirit with the banks of our rivers overflowing with water or are there shortages of water in our hearts? Are we thirsty enough to come daily to the rivers of water ourselves to drink more water of the Spirit so our rivers are overflowing with the water of the Holy Spirit in our lives to be made available for others to partake of.

I have found from experience with the Holy Spirit for over 34 years that the things Jesus speaks are always true and can be validated all through scripture. The clear revelation of the truth and its actuality being revealed and confirmed to us is so we can be confident in what we trust and believe in.

This is why the Apostle Paul could boldly say in 2 Timothy.1:12 2 For this reason I also suffer these things; nevertheless I am not ashamed, for I know whom I have believed and am persuaded that He is able to keep what I have committed to Him until that Day. The things of the Spirit are true and real, not fables and fancy theories that have no basis. They work as we work them in accordance with the prescribed pattern the Holy Spirit ordained.

Now let me expatiate more on praying in the Holy Spirit. Remember Jesus spoke of this in John.7:37.

Let me point out to you what the Lord then revealed to John in the book of Revelation of where that water flows from that we are to drink from. The source of the water Jesus spoke of in John.7:37. In Revelation.1:15 His feet were like fine brass, as if refined in a furnace, and His voice as the sound of many waters; and Revelation.4:6 6 Before the throne there was a sea of glass, like crystal. And in the midst of the throne, and around the throne, were four living creatures full of eyes in front and in back.

Revelation.7:17 for the Lamb who is in the midst of the throne will shepherd them and lead them to living fountains of waters. And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes.” Revelation.14:2 And I heard a voice from heaven, like the voice of many waters, and like the voice of loud thunder. And I heard the sound of harpists playing their harps. Revelation.22:1 And he showed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding from the throne of God and of the Lamb.

You will notice that every time a voice is heard from heaven it is as the sound of many waters which proceeds from the throne of God and the Lamb Jesus. So when Jesus speaks to us His followers that out of our hearts should flow rivers of living water we are also to be speaking from those same rivers that bring life to every situation from the heavenly realm to the earth.

This is why Jude concluded his letter by saying we should be building ourselves up on our most holy faith by praying in the Spirit. We are responsible for building ourselves up by doing the praying. God provides the water but we need to drink it and then be filled with it by us doing the praying. The Lord will not pray for us. We need to do that by using what He has given us effectively and that will produce us the results.

I recall when I had been praying in the spirit over an extended period of time daily the Holy Spirit gave me a vision of my water from a singular river flow till it came into an oasis of so much water flowing and cascading over and over from so many directions that astounded me and from that time on I went on to have so many deliverances happen in people’s life that I ministered to and an avalanche of the miraculous happen over that season of time.

We need to be ready to use what the Lord has given us, not just watch it and wonder why we have it. We must utilize the equipment to ensure we are built up in the Holy Spirit and can be found available for every good work the Lord wants to do on earth. We need to remain prepared and be ready for service at any time the Master needs us.

My prayer for you today is that as you hear these words your hearts will be stirred up back to action and let your first love when you first started praying in the Spirit return. Then go on to have a rekindling awakening of that experience as you find grace supplied in these words to come into a deeper level and intensity in your using this equipment the Holy Spirit provides you to achieve and accomplish the will of the Lord for your life.

Let your spirit be built up once again, remain and continue in that state of being built up daily so the Holy Spirit is able to work with you to achieve the miraculous through your life and bring you into rich fulfilment in Jesus name. Amen.

The Word Of The Lord For The 24/07/2024. From Emile Luke.

This morning in my communion time with the Holy Spirit He pointed out to me that we need to stop walking at cross purposes with Him in matters of the Spirit. We always have a tendency to move situations to the future rather than deal with them in the now because that does not demand anything from us. We need to stop fleeing from taking the necessary uncomfortable step now which leads to the miracle.

The Holy Spirit however wants us to place a demand on the God of the now rather later which never seems to come once we choose to wait for later. In the scripture the Holy Spirit brought to my heart this morning to meditate on and expect to walk in today I will share some of the things the Holy Spirit revealed to me that should free you from putting off for later what God wants to do in the now of your life. The Lord really wants to meet our needs now and solve issues now if only we will let Him.

In John.11:21-26 we read this discourse between Jesus and Martha. Take note of how Martha answers Jesus 1 Now Martha said to Jesus, “Lord, if You had been here, my brother would not have died. 22 But even now I know that whatever You ask of God, God will give You.”2Jesus said to her, “Your brother will rise again.”24 Martha said to Him, “I know that he will 3 rise again in the resurrection at the last day.”25 Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me, though he may die, he shall live. 26 And whoever lives and believes in Me shall never die. Do you believe this?”

Martha firstly uses the excuse of Jesus not arriving on time to have stopped the unfortunate incident of Lazarus dying and blames Jesus for not caring. She offers Jesus no sacrifice of praise with her lips but complains with her lips and does not contemplate what miracle would happen if she just submitted to Jesus’s plan for today.

Even though from experience with Jesus previously she knows better than this, she still blots out her mouth her annoyance at Jesus arriving late . But even now I know that whatever You ask of God, God will give You. ”She has the church trained voice to speak words of faith as a cover up for doubt. If you believe that fact Martha then why do you stagger at what Jesus wants to do to prove that fact in your life?

This needs to be a question we all need to ask ourselves when we are faced with a challenge that requires an act of God on our behalf that demands our action and participation in the now. This is because what we choose to believe and do at that moment will determine what happens. I am so happy that Jesus only takes the words of faith we speak and ignores our failures.

He is the High Priest over the confession of our mouths when they line up with His will. Jesus takes the words of faith and goes on to tell her His plan for today which is that your brother will rise again.

Martha again brings the future up by telling Jesus she knows her bible and what future events hold by saying I already know that in the last day we will all be raised up. Well Jesus was not dealing with the last day but with today so why was Martha not cooperating?

She had no faith for today and was about to fall prey to the word of caution to every follower of God: “today when you hear His voice do not harden your heart” as in the day of rebellion when your fathers tempted God. If you harden your heart God can do nothing for you so it is important that we open our hearts to what the Holy Spirit is saying for today and change to line up with Him so we can experience what God wants to do.

Jesus wants to nail her to today and change her expectancy for the now and goes on to tell her these words: “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me, though he may die, he shall live. 26 And whoever lives and believes in Me shall never die. Do you believe this?”

You would have thought that after hearing these words Martha would just believe. Why did she not believe Jesus was the resurrection and the life? She was refusing to engage with the now moment of faith though Jesus kept pushing her to take a stand. I am resurrection now so expect to see resurrection manifested today.

Just look at her answer in verse 27 She said to Him, “Yes, Lord, I believe that You are the Christ, the Son of God, who is to come into the world.” Jesus was not talking about coming into the world because He was already in the world. Jesus only wanted to prove the reality to her that day that He is the resurrection and the life. However she just kept using her knowledge of future scripture to rob her of the present moment of faith to receive in the now.

I want you to think and ponder on this matter with Martha. Then take a good look at your life and ask yourself how many times have you done exactly what she did here. Evaluate how much you lost out on what God had planned for the day by excusing with scripture, based on future thoughts about what you could have experienced in the now.

Martha fortunately goes on to see the miracle happen because her sister Mary has a different approach to Jesus and Jesus can work with that and accomplish His will though she still butts in again when Jesus orders for the tomb of Lazarus to be opened. Again she opens her mouth and talks about the smell of a dead body. Jesus again has to rebuke her for her to remain in union with Him. Not a good place to be.

Well today the Holy Spirit wants you to look at what happened here with Martha and take care of those patterns in your life that rob you of God obeying in the now. You don’t have a sister who can cover for your faults and make up the hedge for you. So unlike Martha you have missed the opportunities and have gone on to blame the Lord for failing you.

When in fact it was you who stumbled during the process just as Martha did and could not submit to the Holy Spirit’s leading.

Today however is a new day and the Lord through these words wants to give you a fresh start again as you listen to them repent, turn and take fresh action of believing God to work in the now of life as grace is ministered to you to go beyond your doubts and fears to believing and receiving in the now.

May today mark the beginning of a new walk with the Holy Spirit of experiencing God working in the now of your life. Throw out all the excuses you have made to cover your doubts and embrace the faith for now. Your life will dramatically change as you surrender to thus saith the Holy Spirit in Jesus name. Amen.

The Word Of The Lord For The 23/07/2024. From Emile Luke.

This morning in my communion time the Holy Spirit directed me to declare Psalms 144-150 in worship to the Lord. I have come to realize as a pattern that this happens with me on occasions when I have time with the Holy Spirit. I have found from experience that after the declaration of the Psalms, I always experience a new sphere of glory from the Lord resulting in a new and greater impact in my life of the Presence of the Holy Spirit. The word does say that God inhabits the praises of His people. Psalm.22.3.

I recall the time when I was shepherding a group of professionals on a weekly programme and the Holy Spirit directed me to instruct them to declare the psalms daily for a month. It was such a rewarding experience hallmarked with numerous wonderful testimonies that happened in each of their lives after obeying those instructions.

There were several financial breakthroughs and work promotions and rising up in work position status as a result of that daily confession of the Psalms.

This morning was no different as I went to the Psalms from 144-150 the Holy Spirit brought me to a pause as I declared Psalm.145:10-12 from the Passion translation of the bible which reads these words: Everything you have made will praise you, fulfilling its purpose. And all your godly ones will be found bowing before you.11 They will tell the world of the lavish splendor of your kingdom and preach about your limitless power.12 They will demonstrate for all to see your miracles of might and reveal the glorious majesty of your kingdom.

Now let me share with you some of what the Holy Spirit went on to share with me as I declared these words of life. Everything God made has the responsibility to praise the Lord as it fulfills the purpose God intended it to do on the earth.

Remember with the Lord there is always a cause and purpose for everything and the Holy Spirit always announces the purpose before it happens. Jesus spoke of the stones rising up to praise Him as He marched triumphantly into Jerusalem when He was questioned by the Jewish leaders about why He accepted the praises of the people in Matthew.19:40 But He answered and said to them, “I tell you that if these should keep silent, the stones would immediately cry out.”

Now we should never fail in our responsibility to offer the Lord our sacrifice of praise which is the fruit of our lips continually as we don’t want stones to replace us and gain our due reward. Hebrews.13:15.

Next we as God’s people and followers should be found in a position of bowing to our Master in surrender just as we see happen continually in heaven as John recorded in the book of Revelation of the heavenly elders before the Throne of God.

They cast their crowns before Him in submission and total adulation of His superior position, not flaunt them before Him in pride. Salient lesson for us all to heed. This is our position of surrender the Holy Spirit pointed out to me in reverence to the Awesomeness of the nature and Person of the Lord.

Now the next response after bowing in humility before the Lord is the exalted position that is bestowed upon the recipient who bows in surrender to the Lord for service is that we are then given a responsibility to carry out on the earth.

This responsibility is to be witnesses of the lavish splendor of the kingdom of Jesus to the world by demonstration and preaching about the limitless power of the Lord. Mark.16:17-20.

The Holy Spirit harped on this reality that we need to preach on how great God is and not our weakness or failures to obey Him. This enables men to decide for themselves as they witness the incomparable power of the Lord at work rather than the weakness of man. We must share just how great God is and what He is able to accomplish in the affairs of men.

Certainly not our failures in the process of serving Him. The failure of man is constantly evident in everyday life and what we need to witness is the faithful love and loyalty of an Omnipotent and all powerful God who can accomplish marvels on our behalf.

Just look at verse.12 We are to demonstrate for all to see the miracles of God’s might and thus reveal the glorious majesty of Jesus’s Kingdom here on earth.

As I have been prophesying by the Holy Spirit in my posts we are in the season where we will see the faith of Jesus at work in the life of His followers and lovers by unprecedented miracles, signs and wonders that will startle men at the greatness of who Jesus actually is and the reign of His Kingdom on earth for men to see and turn to Him for refuge and deliverance in life.

We need to be living in a place of total surrender and humility before the Lord so the Holy Spirit can grace us with everything necessary to walk in the place of triumph the Lord has ordained and purposed for us to walk in the now of life.

As I declared these words before the Lord you can now see why I say my sphere of glory arose and became more expansive because this plan had been declared by king David about what the Lord would do with His followers in these latter days that would far outweigh what He had done in the past through His chosen servants.

The Holy Spirit is pointing out that this is not a new plan of the Lord’s but the season of the fulfilling of an ancient plan God always had ready to manifest for the deliverance and saving of men’s souls which He would impart on His lovers and followers to do to demonstrate the knowledge of His glory on the earth as the waters cover the sea.

“The Lord wants men to be overcome, overrun and overshadowed by the might of the Holy Spirit’s power on earth.”

I pray today that as you hear these words your spirits will be quickened to the time and season you are in and take swift action through the grace supplied through these words to reposition yourselves back in full alignment to bowing in humility and seeking with your whole hearts the Lord to be ready to partake of this move of the Holy Spirit.

Repent of every way in which you are coming short and do not fear to confess your weakness to the Lord because He already knows it. It is us that need to acknowledge our shortcomings so the Holy Spirit can free us.

This allows for grace to empower us to be fit and able because it is the power of the Lord at work in us both to will and to do for His good pleasure. May you seek with all your being the Lord and find all the might He has available for you so that your life will be a true representation of His glory on earth for men to see and turn to Him in Jesus name. The result will be an expanding His kingdom on earth of which there is no end in Jesus’ name. Amen.

The Word Of The Lord For The 13/07/2024. From Emile Luke.

This morning in my communion time with the Holy Spirit He continued a conversation with me on the word consider which He reminded me of yesterday. When the Holy Spirit brings up a word and asks a question about the use of that word it is time to listen and pay attention because one is about to learn a life changing truth that takes you from wondering and contemplating what may happen to assurance and confirmation of things changing and becoming a reality in your life.

Let me now share what the Holy Spirit was bringing to my attention concerning the word consider.

In Luke.12:24 we read these words Jesus says to His disciples: Consider the ravens, for they neither sow nor reap, which have neither storehouse nor barn; and God feeds them. Of how much more value are you than the birds? Jesus does not engage in idle conversation so when He speaks we need to pay close attention because we will receive life if we heed what He says. To consider means to think of especially with regard to taking some action, or to give serious and careful thought to.

Why would Jesus want us to pay close attention to the ravens? Probably because Jesus wants us to recognize that a raven on this earth even though it does not have the capability to sow and therefore reap anything. Though it has no ability to store its harvests safely in a storehouse or barn, the Lord feeds them regardless of their inability to use the law of seedtime and harvest which the Lord said will remain as long as the earth remains. Genesis.8:22. Let this truth overtake your old thoughts on seedtime and harvest.

Jesus also wanted us to know the value of our lives to Him in respect to our mission on the earth. The human soul has tremendous value to the Lord because it is through us that the Lord gets to rule in the affairs of men and establish His Kingdom on earth. A raven can’t preach the good news of Jesus to a lost generation.

The Lord created us humans to rule the earth in union with Him so why would He withhold what we need to survive and live with on the earth. Romans.5:17. Rather than doubt the ability of God to provide, just consider the ravens and make up your mind that you are of more value to God than them and allow the Lord to make a way for you regardless of how it looks to be provided for.

Elijah in 1 Kings.17:4 & 6 And it will be that you shall drink from the brook, and I have commanded the ravens to feed you there.” The ravens brought him bread and meat in the morning, and bread and meat in the evening; and he drank from the brook.

Ravens are takers by nature but when the Lord steps in they become givers. Let that truth wash over you completely and receive the miraculous working on your behalf in Jesus name.

I experienced the Lord making financial provision for me in Botswana and Sierra Leone in a way that was startling. They are not givers by nature but the provision they made towards me as I preached the gospel was a true testament to the Lord’s ability to release unusual kindness through the most unlikely vessels to show how great His ability to provide for us actually is.

This even though I never preached a single message on finances because at the time I was aware the countries were suffering financially but the Lord knew the needs of the people and wanted to show how He could make a financial difference in their lives as He caused them to sow financial seeds and reap harvests immediately to bring much financial recovery and restoration.

Did you ever wonder where the ravens got the bread and meat from as there was a famine in the land and men were dying. The Holy Spirit wants us to see the Lord from His perspective of abundance, not our limitations and concerns about supply and availability. The Lord uses ravens to provide for Elijah and Jesus uses ravens to remind us about His willingness to provide what we need in any and every situation. What a powerful God we serve.

Let’s go further with the Holy Spirit to discover what He is looking to get across to us going forward on what we choose to consider. Further in Luke.12:27 & 28 Jesus speaks again on what we should consider: Consider the lilies, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin; and yet I say to you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. 28 If then God so clothes the grass, which today is in the field and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, how much more will He clothe you, O you of little faith?

He also goes ahead to give the conclusion to this matter of provision we struggle with. Will God not feed and clothe us? Jesus brings it down to reality!

We are the ones who lack the faith necessary to receive what God has available for us in the now and the Holy Spirit wants to help us develop great faith so we are not left out on the outskirts of His provision for us. Jesus wants us to experience our inheritance of supply from Him and live in the place of all sufficiency in all things. As the Divine Power of God has given to us all things that pertain to our lives and godliness according to His power we allow to work in us through faith.2 Peter.1:3 & 4.

The Holy Spirit took me one step further in this conversation on what I need to consider in Romans.4:19-22 which speaks of Abraham: And not being weak in faith, he did not consider his own body, already dead (since he was about a hundred years old), and the deadness of Sarah’s womb. 20 He did not waver at the promise of God through unbelief, but was strengthened in faith, giving glory to God, 21 and being fully convinced that what He had promised He was also able to perform. 22 And therefore “it was accounted to him for righteousness.” Just look at the stance of consideration Abraham made here.

He refused to consider the present human reality his body was facing, death and natural inability, but focused his consideration on what the power of God could do for Him and Sarah’s womb in order to fulfill His promise to them.

He set his mind on God’s ability to perform what He promised and excluded any other thought in his mind of it not happening and his result was that he had what God said he would have and Sarah conceived and bore him Issac at 100 years old she being 90 years old. The same Lord remains today still capable to do what He did back then and more because of the sacrifice Jesus made for us to inherit life and that in its fullest measure.

The Holy Spirit said to me only consider what I promised you I would do in your life and throw out all other considerations that rise up to question what thus saith the Lord. Refuse to consider any doubt or unbelief and remain steadfast in your confession of what the Lord has said because His faithfulness will be standing over the grave of doubt and unbelief with a triumphant manifestation of the promise God spoke.

You are not the first to doubt and you will not be the last. However, choose to repent for doubting and get rid of that thought and focus on God’s ability to perform what He said. Go ahead and absolutely refuse to move from that stance no matter if the earth is removed from under you. God will still do and perform what He said. Psalm.46:1-3

Let the grace to focus only on what God promised and consider that alone flow towards you today as you hear and receive these words and go right on believing right through to the manifestation of the promise of God for your life as the Holy Spirit performs signs, wonders and astonishing miracles on your behalf and you become a manifestation of the glory of God on the earth for men to see and turn to Jesus. Amen.

The Word Of The Lord For The 12/07/2024. From Emile Luke.

This morning as I began my communion time with the Holy Spirit He spoke these words to me: How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and Power who went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed of the devil for God was with Him.Acts.10:38.

He then asked me, has that fact changed today? I answered no because that was the starting point of the Kingdom of Jesus and Isaiah.9:7 points out that of the increase of His government and peace there shall be no end. Has the kingdom of Jesus then ended? Certainly not, so God still anoints the followers and lovers of Jesus with the same Holy Spirit and Power to go about doing good and healing all who are oppressed of the devil.

This truly stirred me up this morning because it reminded me of the importance of us as the disciples of Jesus to reflect Him and His anointing to men on the earth as the solution to all the oppression we see in the world that the devil keeps creating. It is the responsibility of the followers of Jesus to make known His Kingdom for men to experience by being anointed with the Holy Spirit and power.

So I went on to allow the Holy Spirit to continue this conversation with me so I would understand what He is requiring me to do about the words He had spoken to me. Whenever the Lord speaks words to you, get ready because they will require you to make a dramatic change to line up with the new direction the Lord has prepared to take you on.

This conversation began to expand out as I yielded to the promptings of the Holy Spirit and confirmations from scripture backing up the words the Holy Spirit began revealing to me. Be certain of this fact that the Holy Spirit will never speak things to you contrary to the words God spoke in the Bible.

He will always guide you into truth, not deception and lies and this is so that you are established on truth which brings freedom rather than lies which bring bondage. The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of liberty and freedom from oppression so only brings words that will free and deliver you from satanic oppression and give you life and that more abundantly.John.16:13.

Now in Acts.10:36 & 37 from where the word the Holy Spirit spoke to me came from sets the context for what the Holy Spirit wanted me to know and go from in terms of the action I will need to take about this word. Acts.10:36 & 37 say these words: 6 The word which God sent to the children of Israel, preaching peace through Jesus Christ—He is Lord of all— 37 that word you know, which was proclaimed throughout all Judea, and began from Galilee after the baptism which John preached:

You will notice first of all that the deliverance offered to the children of Israel came through a word God sent to them by Jesus who preached good news that offered peace and Jesus went about declaring that word and as many as believed and received that word were delivered and freed from the oppression of the devil.

Look at John.1:6-13 There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. 7 This man came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all through him might believe. 8 He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light. 9 That] was the true Light which gives light to every man coming into the world. 10 He was in the world, and the world was made through Him, and the world did not know Him. 11 He came to His own, and His own did not receive Him. 12 But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name: 13 who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.

God sent a man with a message of deliverance for His people and only those who believed the message and received the word were granted access to the rights of the Kingdom. The message we are sent to preach by the Holy Spirit contains the deliverance needed for man to free them. However if you refuse the message you are unable to benefit from promises given in the word sent.

An example of this is in Luke.5:17-20 Now it happened on a certain day, as He was teaching, that there were Pharisees and teachers of the law sitting by, who had come out of every town of Galilee, Judea, and Jerusalem. And the power of the Lord was present to heal them. 18 Then behold, men brought on a bed a man who was paralyzed, whom they sought to bring in and lay before Him. 19 And when they could not find how they might bring him in, because of the crowd, they went up on the housetop and let him down with his bed through the tiling into the midst before Jesus. 20 When He saw their faith, He said to him, “Man, your sins are forgiven you.”

This is powerful because what we see here is people all around Jesus supposedly listening to His words as a Prophet they respect and honour and power is available to heal all present and they receive nothing. Then we see those unable to attend the meeting because the place is full, who were not privileged to have a seat to listen to Jesus find a way to get the man they are carrying before Jesus by breaking through the roof and dropping the man in front of Jesus.

Jesus is ecstatic and offers the Man forgiveness of sins. Jesus then proceeds to heal him because he saw faith in the man’s friends to bring him to Jesus regardless of the obstacles of so many people blocking access and that power that was present that day to heal got someone healed. Look at what happened after that by those attending the meeting and make sure that you never respond to God’s deliverance of others in that way and potentially lose your ability to benefit from the word God sends you.

The Holy Spirit then pointed out that He fills us with the Holy Spirit and power and gives us a word for His people and those who receive that word would go on to receive everything God said they will have through that word because they believe and accept by faith that God has spoken to them and have the blessings.

Some however will reject that word and gain nothing and go on to say God never spoke that word. The difference is startling but it is real. God can only get to us through the words He sends to us through His servants full of the Holy Spirit but our receiving of those words is what makes them real in our lives.

The Holy Spirit makes the power available through the Servant of the Lord speaking the word of deliverance and the recipient must respond in faith to connect to that word and obtain grace to see the manifestation of whatever God intended that word to bring to reality or create.Hebrews.2:1-4.

When the Holy Spirit began revealing to me that I would minister His word in the Nations I chose to believe it and accept that God would bring it to pass and surely He has done as He said He would and continues to make it happen. Those to whom I have brought the word of deliverance who accepted it have also experienced all manner of miracles God said they would receive and gone on to testify of God’s faithfulness in accomplishing what He said.

My prayer for you today is that you find the grace of repentance for every time you have negated the word of the Lord sent you as a result of an offense with a Servant of God. Then open your heart again to receive this word of the Lord to you and begin to experience again the manifestation of thus saith the Lord in your life and become a fruit bearer of all the miracles, signs and wonders God has ready for you to partake of daily. Thus you will walk continually free of every oppression of the devil and manifest the goodness of God on the earth for men to see and know that the Jesus you serve is real in Jesus name. Amen.

The Word Of The Lord For The 11/07/2024. From Emile Luke

The Holy Spirit in my communion time with Him this morning reminded me that He is seeking to help us tighten up our walk and curb the small things that cause us to drift. This is to enable us to override all the usual events satan has used previously to rob us of triumph by offense at the last moment that gives him the right to take our prize, because we have left our position and run off. Hebrews.2:1-4.

However the Holy Spirit wants you armed with grace to be steadfast and immovable and refusing to give ground through these words so you go on to walk in and partake of your divine inheritance and glorify the name of the Lord in your life. Allow the Spirit of wisdom to navigate and direct you and be found in Him not your natural and fleshly wisdom so triumph will be your outcome in Jesus name.Ephesians.1:17.

The Holy Spirit spoke to me today about understanding wisdom more comprehensively and its importance in our daily lives. We must understand that the Spirit of Wisdom is a Person. Whereas the word of Wisdom is a single word from the Person/Spirit of Wisdom for an individual situation. This is the reason why the Apostle Paul spent so much time praying that we be filled with the Spirit of Wisdom and the knowledge of God’s will in everything.

Single words of Wisdom are not enough for our lives, because they only deal with the wisdom required in an individual event. We need the immersion into the Spirit of Wisdom to fulfill the purpose of God.We need more than a single word of wisdom to navigate all the situations that will come up in life and this is why it is imperative for us to seek the Lord for the Spirit of Wisdom to provide the necessary wisdom for each situation that arises in life.

In our time today the Holy Spirit showed me from Proverbs:27.11 My son, when you walk in wisdom, My heart is filled with gladness, for the way you live is proof that I’ve not taught you in vain. That we need to walk in Wisdom is vital to living. Wisdom in Himself is an entity we must walk in, which alludes to the fact that we will need to lose who we are, as we walk in Him and it is His nature and characteristics that begin to permeate our lives and not ours.1 Corinthians.1:30.

Wisdom’s nature is Pure, Peaceable, full of understanding, loving, kind, gentle which points to the fact that if we are walking in Him these should be the fruit we exhibit. We always have checks we can do to test ourselves in how we are walking with God and make it a habit to assess ourselves so we keep short time accounts with God. There is no pride in Wisdom even though He knows all things and can do all things and has answers to all things. James.3:17.

The Holy Spirit went on to tell me that He the Lord is filled with gladness when we walk in Wisdom as that is when His Nature and Character are exhibited through our lives as our fruit shows clearly in action that our deeds are done through His power and hand rather than ours. He reminded me which He always does that Jesus only reflected the will of the Father not His Own even though He was the word of God manifested in flesh.

A beautiful lesson that He pointed out to me is that we should live by the voice of the Lord versus the law of God. My sheep Jesus says know my voice and the voice of a stranger they will not follow. As I hear My Father’s voice I judge and my judgment is right because I seek not my desire but the desire of the One who sent Me. John.10:4-6

The Spirit of truth guides us into all truth, the full comprehensive reality of the whole truth. Satan He reminded me also spoke to Jesus the “word” in his temptations to move Jesus to sin, but Jesus answered back with the truth He heard from His Father which the Holy Spirit spoke to Him. Thou art My beloved Son in whom I am well pleased that is what you should walk in not the question if you are the son of God.

Jesus knew the voice of His Father and was not going to let questions on the integrity of the voice of His Father shift Him from position. This is why the Holy Spirit pointed out the importance of walking in Wisdom so we are lost in the Nature of God and can’t be seen. This is so that God is the Person revealed through us and that pleases Him as it did with Jesus. The Spirit of Wisdom is the answer which no one can thwart.

When walking in Wisdom we don’t have to pretend to be, but we just are, as our weakness is swallowed up in His Strength and that’s where we should always want to be and walk in.

In this posture of walking in the Spirit of wisdom it proves we have not been taught in vain but we reflect who God is to our world. In other words our light so shines that men see our good works and glorify our Father in Heaven and we bear Him much fruit which remains.Matthew.5:16.

May your story be today that you walk in the Spirit of Wisdom and let every grace you need be supplied to you through these words. Then let the Holy Spirit broaden your scope so that you will reflect the nature and character of Jesus in all your doings going forward in Jesus Name. Amen.
