Month: April 2025 (Page 1 of 3)

In my communion time with the Holy Spirit this morning which is my life connection to the heart of God. It is what enables me to know what the Lord has to say about things concerning my life and Godliness. John.5:30. 

The Holy Spirit spoke to me about asking Him to empty out of my heart everything that is false, every lie and every crooked thing that is an obstacle to me reaching my full potential in Him and walking in the paths He ordained for me to achieve and fulfill for Him on earth. 

The reason behind this request the Holy Spirit asked me to make of Him is to empower me to have maximum results in my life free from the encumbrances in my heart that limit my victories. 

This word is recorded in Proverbs:30.8 which is a prayer I now pray daily. The Holy Spirit went on to show me further confirmation in Isaiah:40:3-5 as a necessary requirement for us disciples to make our daily practice in life if we are to see His glory manifested in a constant way for us. 

The Holy Spirit emphasized the importance of emptying out every false thing from our hearts and the lies that we have believed, received and walked in that have ended us up in tricky difficult stagnant places.

 The Holy Spirit has had to navigate us out of unnecessary situations and then reposition us safely into green pastures which can be time consuming that could be avoided if only we did this daily. 

The Holy Spirit always points out the truth by sharing the reasons why we should adopt this strategy concerning our hearts in order to stop us suffering undue sorrow and pain in our life’s which Jesus carried for us. Hebrews.4:14-16.

 Jesus wants us to enjoy and experience more of the good life which is why He paid the due price for us to have life and that more abundantly without added sorrow. John.10:10. 

The Holy Spirit pointed out to me that He takes no pleasure in us suffering and missing the mark but in us bearing much fruit which remains. John.15:13-16.

 Jesus died to make sure we could succeed, and not to remain in failure. The Holy Spirit reminded me that we don’t need Him to help us fail as we are masters at failure because of Adam’s transgression. The Holy Spirit pointed out that Jesus is fully aware of our shortcomings. 

The reason we need  union with Jesus is to enable us to start succeeding and making greater progress in life. John.15:5-8. 

Every lie or falsehood we choose to bow to or allow in our hearts impedes the truth we know in our hearts and keeps us bound as slaves to that narrative of continuous grinding with no way out. Genesis.3:17-19. 

 We must, the Holy Spirit insisted, permit only truth in the heart which makes us free. Then repent quickly of any lies and deceptions we receive which seek to offer us an easy way out of seemingly difficult quandaries. Hebrews.12:1 & 2.

He pointed out that we need to ask Him for help because He is our Helper to daily remove falsehoods and lies from our lives as our human heart always first responds to deception because that’s what it loves. Jeremiah.17:9.

 It is important to know that only the new God’s heart can respond to truth which we consciously have to agree to and then do in order to succeed. 2 Corinthians.5:17-19.

 So my dear Brethren ask the Holy Spirit to help you empty your heart daily of the trash the world offers: that is the lies and falsehood. Then embrace the grace supplied to you to enable you to accept and allow truth to flow through your hearts so that God can be seen and manifested through you.

 This reality is what Jesus pointed out in Matthew.5:16 when He said let your light so shine before men that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven. 

This the Holy Spirit pointed out to me is the Fathers greatest desire for us so, we need to pursue it with all our heart, mind, emotions, will, intellect and body daily as we face daily battles and struggles which we must overcome. 1 John.5:4 & 5. 

Rise up in the grace these words make available to you and have a triumphant day by being a refreshing spring of life to someone today who is needing to be lifted from a pit of sorrow. 

Let this be your reality because you choose to yield to the Holy Spirit’s voice in you to become His voice to them that gives them that freedom in Jesus Name. Amen.

Do you feel like you are always being corrected and rebuked for every little thing you do? Are you annoyed as to why the Holy Spirit is always judging your motives and conduct rather than heaping praise on you? Psalm.73:13-17.

Well today the Holy Spirit gave me an encouraging word for you. Be assured that you are being corrected first because God loves you and doesn’t want you to fail. Just think about that reality. Hebrews.12:6-8.

The Lord has committed Himself to you triumphing in life and for that reason will not leave you to your own devices which will bring you failure. The Holy Spirit reminded me that the people He God leaves to their own devices are those that fall into perdition.

This is because they have received a hardened heart and are unable to repent and find deliverance. This is why we need to rejoice and be glad that the Lord is on our back always correcting our conduct. Hebrews.12:7 & 8.

The Holy Spirit went on further to explain that corrections also deal with us being empowered to navigate things more accurately from a wider spectrum of truth beyond our mindsets. This impetus from the Lord reflects in us seeing things from God’s viewpoint versus our limitations on matters which have much more far reaching consequences. Revelation.4:6 & 8.

It is only through Godly correction and rebuke that we can experience the operation of wisdom working for our benefit which enables us to make the right decisions which are vital for achieving Godly outcomes in our life’s.

The Holy Spirit then reminded me of those He never corrected in the bible and what their end was? I certainly don’t want to think about those peoples’ end because it is too painful. Judas is a clear example. Jesus said it would have been better for him never to have been born than to end up as he did. Acts.1:16-20.

This is the reality about those the Lord allowed to have their own way free of correction and of course the result of their ways which is untimely death.

We need the Holy Spirit pointed out to me to value most highly the correction and rebuke of the Lord because it ensures we remain in His ways and means we will walk in His paths of pleasantness and peace at all times.

Jesus He pointed out commanded us to follow Him not dictate to Him. Matthew.4:19. His record of leading people to success and victory is immutable so we can confidently follow His voice being fully assured that we will reach the side of victory and triumph. 1 Peter.5:10 & 11.

So today begin to develop a love and passion for the correction and rebuke of the Lord. Cherish it and just watch and see how you will be navigated out of paths of death, places of continual hassle and shame to paths of success, victory and great rejoicing.

Lay hold of the fact that His love for you transcends your love and care for yourself. Romans.8:37. Always remember that His love will keep you connected with His plan, purpose, design and intent for your life which will never change.

Rise up in the grace these words provide you and go out and have a conquering, victorious day in Jesus Name. Amen.

The Holy Spirit says to you today will you be drenched with life’s blessings? Then choose to be honest with yourself by recognising your weakness and inability to be good. Then purposefully surrender all your cares to Him for He cares for you. 1 Peter.5:7.

Recognise that only His grace is able to make you fruitful and productive.Ephesians.2:8 & 9. Give the Holy Spirit respectable time to speak to you then embrace the Holy Spirit’s instruction by being faithful to do as He says regardless of your fears, particular bent or concerns. 

Don’t worry about how that will make you look in peoples eyes but be drenched with life’s benefits which the Holy Spirit pointed out to me are as natural as the rain and snow falling to the Earth. Isaiah.55:10 & 11. They have been programmed by God to provide all that is necessary to cause plants to grow and produce fruit continually season after season.

 The Holy Spirit reminded me that He has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus. Ephesians.1:3.  All we need to do is have them rain down on us daily on earth. 

We desperately need that flow of heavenly ability and strength to make us valuable and productive on earth which is where they are needed for our benefit. 

Jesus He reminded me came, died and was raised so that we could partake of all the heavenly blessings and experience life and that in its fullest measure in the now on earth. John.10:10.

The Holy Spirit reassured me that Jesus wants us above all to experience His blessings more than we know or want them in our life’s. John.17:24. He knows our needs and provided for them abundantly as a loving Father and we only need to position ourselves to receive them. 2 Peter.1:3 & 4. 

So today I beseech you to take this opportunity to drink in these words of life and receive the grace to partake of every spiritual blessing needed for your wellbeing today. Then watch how they will lift and raise you to the position of glory the Lord has apportioned for you to walk in. A glory that will magnify His mighty Name. John.15:8. 

Receive these blessings today in Jesus Name. Amen.

In my communion time with the Holy Spirit today He pointed out to me the importance of looking at whose interests I was serving? In real terms whether I am serving the Master Jesus, family or business to my Boss.

I know it sounds very controlling from the perspective of the Holy Spirit? However we are told in James.4:5 these words: Or do you think that the Scripture says in vain, “The Spirit who dwells in us yearns jealously”?

He went on to say that most times we are just doing Christian things we have been taught by rote and are unconscious of the fact that we are no longer serving Jesus’s purpose.

He pointed out that we have just been drifting along in life hoping for the best unsure of our true spiritual bearings. The worst part is that we have been believing wrongly, convinced in ourselves that we are serving God’s purpose.

The Holy Spirit then instructed me to look at what are Jesus’ interests from a Kingdom perspective. John.2:16 & 17. Then ask myself the question: how do I match up with those goals in what I do daily.

In other words He was asking me to take stock of my actions. Isaiah.55:6-9. What are my priorities for each day? Does Work, family, school runs, which we need to do take priority over our service to and for Him.

Do we ask what He wants to achieve each day through our lives as opposed to requesting Him to help us achieve our plan for the day. Just meditate for a while on what the Apostle Peter says in 1 Peter.2:4 & 5.

Well if we want the Honour that comes from Him that is sweet and everlasting we are going to have to serve His purpose not ours because the flesh profits nothing. He spoke from Proverbs:27.18. Which reads: Whoever keeps the fig tree will eat its fruit; So he who waits on his master will be honored.

The Holy Spirit reminded me that it is the Spirit that gives life as recorded in John:6.63. Just a little drifting from serving the Lord causes life to become bitter and difficult easily He pointed out. Then once this happens we are quick to complain that things are not working but slow to admit we are not serving His interests.

This is why He is pointing out to me why to prioritize time with Him in the morning earlier to know His heart for the day. This is much more effective because through discernment we are able to avoid negative things and the places where not to go that we had planned that would be dangerous and cause us harm.

The interests of Jesus always give life because they never fail. John.10:10.

So my brethren take note of these words of caution and make all the necessary adjustments required to ensure you are daily serving Jesus’ interests and not yours.

Be open and sensitive to the Holy Spirit to be an answer for someone who needs lifting and needs to know God’s love today. Stop being in a rush for yourself and your needs. Be open to helping someone the Lord wants you to help and bless.

Stop making excuses and denying this reality to yourself, because the Lord knows your heart and the avoidance you are using as an excuse.

Be strong and take God’s action today and let the sweetness of Jesus be restored back to your life and relationship with Him.

May the grace in these words empower you to take action and watch how sweet your day will flow as the Holy Spirit is given His rightful place to reign in your life.

Have a glorious, fruitful and productive day in Jesus Name. Amen.

In my communion time with the Holy Spirit [which I implore you should make a practice] this morning He spoke to me about not allowing the negative words of people or even family to determine who we believe we are. Lamentations.3:37.

Go ahead today and throw those lying words off as rags as you flatly refuse them to sit on you. The Holy Spirit reminded me that our identity is determined by what God has said we are and no other voice can change that. 1 Peter.1:2.

The Holy Spirit reminded me that when He made a Covenant with Abraham in Genesis.12:2 & 3, He pointed out that He would bless those who bless Abraham and would curse those who curse Abraham.

In other words the Lord was aware that people would speak contrary to what God spoke about Abraham and the Lord made it clear that He would deal with them. It also indicated that God knew that people would not agree with God’s perspective of Abraham and would voice it with the intention of stopping the promises of God happening.

The Holy Spirit reminded me that no one can speak and it comes to pass when He the Lord had not ordained it. Lamentations.3:37. It is our duty He said to only speak what the Lord says about us and reject what is not His will for us. Isaiah.54:17

This He pointed out to me is what we need to make a habit. Our priority is not to allow the accusing voice of the enemy to determine our course. We must reject the voice of the enemy speaking through people.

The Holy Spirit reminded me of how satan spoke through Peter in Matthew.16:21-23 to stop Jesus from going to the cross and how Jesus responded to it. By rebuking the devil seeking to use Peter’s voice. He cautioned me to be aware of the fact that though we must resist the voice of satan we are not to vilify the human vessel.

The Holy Spirit further reminded me how Jesus responded to Judas in Luke.22:47-51.after he kissed Him sealing his betrayal of Him. Jesus was decent and cordial. Truly loving. It was satan that had entered Judas and he was now performing satan’s will which is to steal, kill and destroy.

So today take hold of this truth and allow the grace contained in these words to give you the strength to resist the persuasion coming through negative words.

Then be empowered by the Holy Spirit to focus on God’s words over your life which give you a future, a hope and an expected end of glory in your service for Him in Jesus Name. Amen. Jeremiah.29:11.

The Holy Spirit pointed out to me in my communion time with Him this morning that we as humans always think that if something is being swallowed up by another it is evil. 

It is unfortunate that we have come to believe that because of the python which has that power to swallow up its victims. It is evidence that evil always ends up overtaking good and bringing forth negative results.

The Holy Spirit led me to Isaiah:25:7-8 and pointed out to me that it is He the Lord who swallows up the oppression that weighs us down. He is the One with the power to remove negative things and replace them with His goodness. 

He is the One who calls things that don’t exist as though they did. He is the One that gives life to the dead. Romans.4:17.He is the One that swallows up death forever and gives life and that in its fullest measure.John.10:10. 

The Holy Spirit also reminded me of the time in Revelation 12:16 when the earth swallowed up the flood satan spewed out and saved God’s servant. He pointed out to me that we should be more focused on Him swallowing up every evil work from our lives rather than satan swallowing up our lives and God’s promises over our lives.

 Our consciousness must be centred on His ability to swallow up anything satan throws at us rather than fear and cower at satan’s feeble attempts to threaten and intimidate us with sneak attacks planned to surprise us and then take us hostage on the basis of our fears. 

We have the Holy Spirit advantage and like Jesus did in the storm that suddenly arose, rebuke the storm, swallow it up with all its ferocity. Then restore peace from the inner strength within by the Holy Spirit even though we were asleep when it commenced. Mark.4:39-41.

So today dear fellow heirs of the inheritance in God quickly change your perspective and line up with the Lord’s perspective as you see all the satanic narratives you have experienced swallowed up. Romans.8:17.

They will be replaced with the miraculous Hand of God creating beauty out of ashes [the havoc it has wrecked in your lives] and producing a new song of victory and triumph beyond measure in your life. Isaiah.61:3.

May this song of deliverance be your portion today as you engage in aligning to the word of His grace in Jesus Name. Amen.

The Holy Spirit asks you today do you want to become a mighty warrior? As things appear presently it seems a tall order!  However with the wisdom the Holy Spirit daily provides you, you can be enlisted into that position and gain that triumphant title.

 The Holy Spirit asked me how long did it take for Gideon to be recognised as a mighty man of valor? Judges.6:14 & 16. How about Joshua or even Moses? Joshua.1:9. 

It only took them hearing the voice of the Lord and obeying the instructions of the Holy Spirit which brought phenomenal results that elevated them to that ranking. 

Take note that It was not their high level physical attainments or education, but the operation of the Holy Spirit and adherence to His instruction that made them great. 

The Holy Spirit reminded me of what the Lord said to Joshua in Joshua.3:7: Today I will begin to lift you up before the people. What elevated Joshua? It was an instruction He received from the Lord that happened exactly as instructed which immediately changed His identity completely.

 It propelled him to a higher rank of high class achievement that only God can bestow upon an individual in an instance. 

So today the Holy Spirit beckons you to desire earnestly His wisdom and instruction with all your heart. Then promptly obey it and watch how your status will change and your life will begin to blossom and flourish just as the rod of Aaron did overnight in Jesus Name. Numbers.17:8.

 Let this miraculous reality become your story also from this day forward and you will also be known as a mighty warrior in Jesus Name. Amen.

The Holy Spirit says to you today listen to Me 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.2:52.

So we need wisdom each day to grow and it is the cumulative progression of each day of wisdom we receive and imbibe that builds within us that will result in our growth in the Spirit thus increasing the level of God’s favour we will walk in.

 The Holy Spirit pointed out that it is through the wisdom we receive from Him and walk in,which in turn empowers our hearts to be drawn into the understanding of God’s ways. 

This progression in turn empowers us to make the right decisions which means we will have God sized results, laden with miraculous events which keep on becoming greater each day.

 It will astound you as to how you go on to have far more impact on those around you and impact lives for the kingdom of Jesus of which there is no end to its expansion. Isaiah.9:7.

 As Jesus pointed out to the Jews in John.5:20 and ”greater works than these will my Father do that will cause you to marvel.” 

So my beloved you have a fresh opportunity to decide today to listen more attentively by paying closer attention to the direction and leading of the Holy Spirit. Then quickly obey by doing whatever He says to do daily.

It is a privilege to watch and see how your progression in the Spirit rises as your understanding of the Spiritual matters makes you take decisions that lift you up by the removal of shame and disgrace from your life. 

You will become a greater witness who walks in greater glory by the power of the Holy Spirit. John.14:12-14. 

Have a God measured day full of rich fulfilment in Jesus Name. Amen.

The Holy Spirit this morning in my communion time reminded me of Hebrews.12:1 & 2 which reads these words: Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, 2 looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.

We most times forget the level of support and heavenly aid that is available to us. The Holy Spirit went on to emphasize the reality of what surrounds our lives which is a cloud of witnesses who have stories of triumph which God did for their lives that rain down miraculous answers for us concerning any situation that can possibly rise up against us which threaten to rob us of our peace and the divine plan of God for our lives.

However we must recognise that there is always a God given solution for every problem which the Lord has previously covered before that will see us through all impending attacks. This reality is so vital the Holy Spirit pointed out which we need to glean from and hold onto to see us through every possible attack or opposition to the knowledge of God concerning our lives fulfilling the plan of the Lord for us.

So I invite you to investigate with me the reality of this promise with the Holy Spirit to ensure we are receiving the full measure of blessings ordained by the Lord for our glory. Firstly we must realize that the great cloud of witnesses are proof holders/producers and sharers/partakers in what they have experienced of the power of the Lord.

When they were faced with obstacles that almost took them out, but where the Holy Spirit stepped in and brought them out by a miraculous intervention which startled the enemy that had come against them and brought them extensive rewards. Daniel.2:46-49.

They have a story of glory which is evidence which can be used by us in court to decide the outcome of any similar case presented against us. This is because it has become the legal binding precedent to guide judgment for all other cases covering that area in life.

Let this reality saturate your being and take over your thoughts now so you can be in position to lay hold of and receive all the Father has determined for you to have in this season. We are told in scripture that satan is the accuser of the brethren Revelation.12:10 and does this accusation against us day and night.

No wonder Peter warned us in 1 Peter.5:8-11 on how to defeat the onslaught of the devil.

In Revelation.12:11 we are told that we must overcome satan with the blood of Jesus and the word of our testimony and not to allow his continuous accusations to determine the course of our lives.

When it comes to accusations we need to defend ourselves with the blood of Jesus otherwise if they are brought up in Kangaroo courts in the earth realm we can find ourselves being convicted. When we do not oppose those accusations vehemently and give a defence against those charges using the blood of Jesus as our plea.

Now you can see why the cloud of witnesses is such a blessing and of vital importance for us because we have family who won in similar situations as witnesses to the fact that we also will come out triumphant. This is a fact because the same Lord who brought them out triumphantly is here now to do the same for us as they carry the proof of this reality which becomes our defence.

This is because Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today and forever.Hebrews.13:8.Thank God Jesus never changes.

These immutable facts demonstrate why the woman with the issue of blood in Mark.5:25-34 for twelve years could believe that if she touched the Hem of Jesus’ garment she would be healed. Of Course she was healed instantly because she had heard how Jesus had healed all sick people that came to Him.

She had the confidence from the testimonies of what He had already done and knew her situation would be no different if she just touched His garment.

This reality worked perfectly for her so that as she touched Jesus virtue flowed out of Him and she was instantly healed. Amazingly Jesus knew that power had gone from Him which healed someone and wanted to know her process so Jesus could encourage us through her testimony that we could count on the cloud of witnesses testimony to receive what God had already done before on our behalf to make us whole from any obstacle or oppression of the devil.

Let us go deeper with the Holy Spirit and tap into this grace which will bring us remarkable testimonies of triumph. After recognising the reality of the Cloud of witnesses we then need to lay aside or put away from our thoughts, minds, emotions and intellects every weight of bondage or oppression and the temptation it affords us to sin.

These desires to sin that so easily besets us because they offer temporary reprieve and an easy way out where we just need to succumb and yield to the desire and have its benefits.

We are offered a way out through the cloud of witnesses who went past the sin desires and gained the promise. Using the ability of grace to put aside the weight of sin and look to Jesus the Author and Finisher of our faith or trust who proved faithful even in death.

We are therefore able to experience the same triumph through His grace working on our behalf through His endurance working for us to bring us to the finish line resulting in gaining the inheritance.

This is such an honour and privilege to share in the grace Jesus provided for us to be strong enough to overcome every obstacle death throws at us and come out with life and that in its fullest measure with a story of glory. John.10:10.

My prayer for you today is that as you receive these words you will experience the realization of them manifesting in your life today. As you boldly walk in the manifestation of Jesus’ power doing for you exceedingly and abundantly above all you could ask or think according to His power at work in you.

You will then experience the Holy Spirit creating a story of glory in your lives that will speak loud and clear of the Kingdom of Jesus still faithfully working on the Earth for men to see and trust in Him to serve His Lordship on this earth in Jesus name. Amen.

Have a Fruitful and productive day in Jesus name. Amen.

The Holy Spirit wants to open your eyes to see things that you have previously just passed over as non consequential. Things you have brushed aside as not worthy of your time or energy which have resulted in much loss and financial ruin. Isaiah.40:13-15. 

He pointed out that the way we humans value things is completely different from how He the Holy Spirit values things. The Holy Spirit reminded me of how Jesus in John:4 gained the people of Samaria by visiting with the sinner lady at the well. Jesus did not seek an audience with the mayor or governor of the state of Samaria or the most influential person in order to change the spiritual climate.

 Jesus knew by the Spirit how she was going to take His message and bring it to the wider audience of people. That’s why He went towards her and waited for her. Jesus knew she would run with the word and deliver it to the people. Who in turn were going to accept the word she spoke then choose to follow Jesus once they heard the message He spoke to them. 

The Holy Spirit reminded me that we spend too much time disqualifying the methods He has for us to achieve things by saying that won’t do much or is insignificant. However what the Holy Spirit leads you to do will have eternal results because it is loaded with Spirit and life. 1 Corinthians.2:1-5. 

So today is a fresh day with another wonderful opportunity to surrender to the leading and direction of the Holy Spirit. Allow His wisdom to navigate you to the position of establishing the Kingdom of Jesus on earth in your sphere of influence. 

Implicitly trust Him as He knows far more and better than your limited ability. Let Him open your eyes to behold wonders that will astound you and cause you to pinch yourself saying how did this come to pass in my life. 

Your only conclusion will be that it is the grace of God that has accomplished this marvel and all I can do is rejoice and be glad in what the Lord has done in Jesus Name. Amen. Isaiah.25:1. 

Have a fruitful and productive day in Jesus Name. Amen.
