In my time with the Holy Spirit today He pointed out to me to look at whose interests I was serving whether the Master Jesus or family or business or my Boss. The Holy Spirit pointed out that most times we are just doing things as per rote and are not conscious that we are no longer serving His purpose but just drifting in life hoping for the best and believing convinced in ourselves that we are serving God’s purpose. He pointed out to me to look at what are Jesus’ interests and how do we match those in what we do daily.

Take stock of your actions. What are your priorities for the day? Work, family, school runs, and do we put these things before our service for Him. Do we ask what the Lord wants to achieve today as opposed to help me achieve my plan for today? Well if we want the Honour that comes from Him that is sweet we are going to have to serve His purpose not ours as 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. He reminded me that it is the Spirit that gives life.John:6.63. Life can become bitter easily He pointed out and we are quick to complain that things are not working but slow to admit that we are not serving the Lord’s interests.

The Holy Spirit pointed out to me to prioritize time with Him in the morning earlier in order to know His heart for the day and things to avoid and where not to go that we had planned that would be dangerous and cause us harm. Following the Lord’s interests always gives life because they never fail to produce miraculous results.

So my brethren take note of these words and make all the necessary adjustments to ensure you are daily serving Jesus’ interests and not yours, be open to the Holy Spirit to be an answer for someone who needs lifting and needs to know God’s love today, don’t only be in a rush for yourself and your needs. Be open to minister the life of Christ to someone in need.

Help someone the Lord wants you to and stop denying it to yourself, that the Lord has need for you to be a vessel He can work through. The Lord knows your heart and the avoidance you are using as an excuse to refrain from being an extension of the hand of the Lord to someone in need.

Take the God action today and let sweetness of the Holy Spirit 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 has reign in your life. Have a glorious, fruitful and productive day in Jesus Name. Amen.

This morning in my communion time with the Holy Spirit He reminded me of more things about Himself to me from the Bible. It appears to me that the Holy Spirit wants us so loaded with His nature and character to such a degree that only He the Holy Spirit is visible in our life and that we are completely following and serving the will of Jesus. Lord come more and more till we are totally saturated with your Presence and Power exuding from us as with Jesus.

Let me share some of the nuggets of truth He revealed to me and deeper insight into truths I already knew but got a greater understanding and further application of how to use more effectively to bring more glory to the Lord.

In 1 Corinthians.2:9-12 we read these words But as it is written: “Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, Nor have entered into the heart of man The things which God has prepared for those who love Him.”10 But God has revealed them to us through His Spirit. For the Spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of God. 11 For what man knows the things of a man except the spirit of the man which is in him? Even so no one knows the things of God except the Spirit of God. 12 Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we might know the things that have been freely given to us by God.

The Holy Spirit reminded me of what He shared with me yesterday of seeing beyond the plain and mountain the things God has made available for me to experience in this present season. Well the Holy Spirit is the person through whom we can get to know these deep things of God because He alone can search all things even the deeper things of God.

This is why you always find me stressing the importance of having fellowship time with the Holy Spirit because without Him any knowledge you have of God will be of no use to you because your natural mind will prevent you understanding it because it cannot discern the things of the Spirit and you will fall flat on your face.

Jesus never says anything lightly so when He said it is to your advantage that I go away because if I don’t the Holy Spirit cannot come to you. He knew the importance of us having the Holy Spirit to help us in our weaknesses and empower us to serve the Lord in Spirit and truth for that is what the Father seeks.

We cannot serve God in the flesh with truth because that is a lie ,because the flesh will not serve the Lord in truth. but the Holy Spirit serves only the truth because He is the Spirit of truth.

You will notice that truth needs to be revealed to us, in other words God has to open our spiritual eyes to truth. This is because the heart of man loves lies or deception because it is deceitful not truthful as God pointed out to Jeremiah in Jeremiah.17:9 & 10 “The heart is deceitful above all things, And desperately wicked; Who can know it? 10 I, the Lord, search the heart,I test the mind,Even to give every man according to his ways, According to the fruit of his doings.

Only the Holy Spirit can search the heart of man and test man’s heart so how can you expect you can do anything without His help, guidance and insight that is worth life. This is why we need to walk closely with the Holy Spirit because He alone reveals the truth on any matter and shows us future events.

I recall when my brothers thought I was crazy with this God pursuit and had smart answers for me when I tried to convert them and the Holy Spirit spoke to me to leave them alone and focus on walking with Him. He then started revealing things to me about future events which I told them that happened each time concerning themselves, and they all came to pass.

Let me tell you something, they started wanting me to speak to them about the God thing now because they saw the manifestation of the Holy Spirit each time I spoke rather than my pleas and words using scripture to convince them.

This message of the Kingdom is not words only but the manifestation of the Holy Spirit that makes things happen for men to see and know God is real.

Verse.12 of 1 Corinthians.2 points out the crux of the matter that we have received not the spirit of this world but the Spirit that is from God so that we might know the things that have been freely given us by God. Jesus wants us to know by the Holy Spirit everything He purposed us to have.

He does not want us living in suspense, not sure of our experience with God but in the knowledge of God downloaded to us by the Holy Spirit. We need to surrender more to the Holy Spirit just as Jesus did when living on the earth.

He did everything under the direction of the Holy Spirit and had absolutely perfect results. We need to have the same tenacity Jesus had to seek the counsel of the Holy Spirit and walk in it rather than our natural instincts. We need to reject the spirit of the world and with open arms receive and embrace the Holy Spirit of truth to guide and direct our lives to triumph in the Lord.

My heart prayer for you this morning is that as you hear these words the Holy Spirit will open your eyes to truth and empower you with grace as He did Noah to build the Ark of the Holy Spirit for your life to be saved and rescued and you live on the other side of the floods and turmoil that have plagued your life in the Power of the Holy Spirit of truth triumphant in every area of your life in the name of Jesus.

The Holy Spirit wants you knowing everything you need spiritually to walk triumphantly in this season so you are no longer running hit and miss patterns of life and death, but experiencing the life and that more abundantly that Jesus bought and paid for you to experience. May this be your personal story in this season 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 and recognise your weakness and your inability to be good and surrender your cares to Him for He cares for you. Recognise that only His grace is able to make you fruitful and productive. This is the season of the former and latter rain of God’s blessing on your lives. Joel.2:23 & 24.

Give Him time to speak and embrace the Holy Spirit’s instruction and be faithful to do as He says regardless of your fears or bents or concerns how that will make you look and be drenched with life’s benefits which He pointed out to me are as natural as the rain and snow falling to the Earth and providing all that is necessary to cause plants to grow and produce fruit continually season after season.Isaiah.55:10 & 11.

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

We need that flow of heavenly ability and strength to make us valuable and productive on earth which is where they are required for our benefit. Jesus, He reminded me, came and died and was raised so that we could partake of 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 to experience His blessings more than we know or want them in our lives. He knows our needs and provided for them as a loving Father and we only need to position ourselves to receive them.

So today I beseech you to drink in these words and receive the grace to partake of every spiritual blessing needed for your wellbeing today that will lift and raise you to the position of glory the Lord has apportioned for you to walk in that will glorify His mighty Name. Receive these blessings in Jesus Name. Amen.

In my special time with the Holy Spirit this morning after my commitment time to serving the purpose of the Lord and surrendering my heart and soul to serve Jesus alone. The Holy Spirit took me back to Colossians.3:16 and began explaining in more detail to me what the true reality of the word of Christ dwelling richly in us in all wisdom really means and entails and what the full scope of its application in our life will mean for us.

“The Holy Spirit wants us to know what we are committing to in our service to the Lord so we are not deceived about our pursuit and can follow with absolute confidence knowing full well that God will perform what He has said to us.”

Colossians.3 reads Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord. Most of us will ask which exact word that Christ spoke is being referred to here that we should let dwell in our hearts richly. If I take that one word and work it into my heart does that mean the word of Christ dwells richly in me, now so that I have all wisdom and am able to teach and admonish in everything. Certainly not.

The Holy Spirit said let us look at one word from Jesus as an example to take heed and beware of all kinds of greed for a man’s life does not consist in the abundance of things he possesses Luke.12.You see how we can distort scripture and end up in a ditch because although you can watch out for greed not having place in your life and that is part of the word of Christ. That word alone will not cover for you not responding in love to your neighbor or being kind and gracious in all you do.

The question then remains which word of Christ should we allow to dwell richly in us. Every word of instruction from the mouth of Jesus to His disciple you most hold dearly, receive and imbibe fully because as humans we are to live by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God. That does not mean everything men say God said but what thus saith the Lord. God sent his word to heal us and Jesus is the word made flesh and He certainly went about healing all who were oppressed of the devil because God was with Him.

Well I started out in an Anglican church where they taught that God had committed the ministry of healing to doctors now and the days of healing were now gone.

Thankfully when the Holy Spirit saved me and I began devouring the word of God I realized that the word was true and everything it said I could have and walk in so I simply believed and challenged the preachers each time they said God does not heal today and gave the relevant scriptures to back up my beliefs and they were gracious to me to pursue God more.

Not sure they changed their minds. I could not do that for them. I needed to pursue God myself. I met in that church oddly enough a man whose daughter was almost blind who used to wear very strong glasses and had almost gone blind but the parents had taken her to see Smith Wigglesworth for a healing.

He said to me when we entered his home Smith wigglesworth said to them that they were not serious because the girl was still wearing the glasses and he proceeded to take the glasses from her and smash them on the floor with his feet. The dad said he was offended at that but he watched as Smith prayed,laid hands on his daughter and she began seeing again perfectly in their midst.

That very day the father was relating the story to me. The daughter came into the house and still had perfect vision. I met her. She pointed out to me that she could not come to the Anglican church because she knew she had been healed by God, had the evidence in her sight and could not worship where that truth was rejected or spoken evil against.

I had never heard of Smith wigglesworth at that time because I was in Anglican circles but got to realize later when the very lady I told you in one of my posts I had advised about not divorcing her husband gave me books about Wigglesworth and the healing and deliverance in his ministry which I was embarking on in Botswana at that time which were an encourager and blessing to me at the time and still are.

The Lord was confirming to me that healing was real in the very place where men said no and I saw the proof before me that God heals so that solidified my continued pursuit for the miraculous which God said I should walk in.

You see the word of Christ is very broad and we need to be open to allow room in our hearts for all the wisdom contained in them to expand us to the point where that word dwells in us or takes up residence in our hearts and as Peter says the Morning Star Jesus arises in our hearts in full manifestation of reality of the truth now clearly visible in our lives.

As the Apostle Paul pointed out in Galatians.1:15-17 But when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother’s womb and called me through His grace, 16 to reveal His Son in me, that I might preach Him among the Gentiles, I did not immediately confer with flesh and blood, 17 nor did I go up to Jerusalem to those who were apostles before me; but I went to Arabia, and returned again to Damascus.

Paul had heard Jesus speak to him on the road to damascus but here Paul talks about the process of that word being revealed in him as opposed to him.

Paul tells us that when the word of Christ was revealed in him richly then he could preach it effectively and magnify the name of the Lord which is exactly what the Holy Spirit wants the word of Christ to be in your life with all wisdom and necessary teaching to develop you from baby to maturity where your senses are fully exercised to discern between good and evil and you do what thus saith the Lord.

There is still so much of this truth I will need to share with you, but for today allow your heart to yield to the grace supplied you through these words of truth and make the necessary corrections so that the word of Christ can dwell in you richly and begin to change the course of your thinking and processing truth so Christ can manifest in you more and more and your life becomes more of a living witness of the aliveness of Jesus and, His will still present on this earth to help and aid man to succeed and prosper in life.

The reality of the increase of the Kingdom of Jesus on this earth being manifested through your life which glorifies the name of Jesus. Amen

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 that has that power and always ends up overtaking good and bringing negative results.

He led me to Isaiah:25:7-8 and pointed out to me that He the Lord is the One who swallows up the oppression that weighs us down. He is the One with the power to remove 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.

Jesus is the One that swallows up death forever and gives life and that in its fullest measure. He 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 God’s 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 that surprise us and then take us hostage to our fears.

We have the Holy Spirit advantage and like Jesus did in the storm that suddenly arose, rebuke the storm, swallow it up in all its ferocity and restore peace even though we were asleep when it commenced.

So today dear fellow heirs of the inheritance in God change your perspective and line up with the Lords perspective and see all the satanic narratives you have experienced swallowed up and 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 .

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

This morning the Holy Spirit spoke a word through me from Colossians.3 that came through clearly in my view and captivated my whole being. The Holy Spirit has many ways in which He conveys messages to us to get our attention on what really matters and ensure that we are keeping up with Him and not lagging back.

The Holy Spirit is such a perfect mentor who knows exactly what you need when you need it and has the power available to make what is needed available for you in an instant to manifest it for your benefit.Thank you Jesus for the indescribable gift of the Holy Spirit to be the support, help and aid we need to succeed in life and be productive for the glory of Jesus.

Let us look at the scripture the Holy spirit quickened to me Colossians.3:16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.

You say well I know Christ dwells or lives in me so what is new and special about that? I will explain what the Holy Spirit wanted to further enlarge the truth in me about the word of the Lord. We first of all see that we are the ones who must give permission to the word of Christ to dwell in us.

How we choose to see or interpret the word of the Lord and apply it to our lives will determine how it will impact us. You could say let the word of Christ dwell poorly in you in foolishness, complaining, and negative words just causing you harm and affecting others negatively bringing disrepute to Jesus’ name and we see so much of that in the lives of believers.

It is our choice to let the word of Christ dwell richly in us by our diligence in confessing that word continually and meditating on it over and over again till it actually starts dwelling, living and breathing in and through us.

The Holy Spirit reminder is to awaken us back to increasing our confession and meditation which gives Him more room and scope in us to perform the word of Christ in our lives Romans.10:10. We need to deny ourselves daily, not just weekly or monthly and take up our cross and follow Jesus. You cannot follow Jesus by leading Him and directing the path forward.

“How we respond to the word of Christ in us today will determine how much it will live, work and abide in us for this today.”

“We need to allow the word to richly impact our lives. We need to receive it as rich and more valuable than our daily food and clothing needs and pursue it more faithfully than resources for ourselves.”

Remember that it is Jesus who said take heed how you hear the word, because the measure you use will be measured back to you, meaning that the value you place on it will determine how much it will benefit you. If you don’t allow it to influence your decisions daily it will not change things for you.

“We are the determiners of how much the word of Christ will benefit us.”

So if you are unhappy with your results then change the way you see and value the Word of Christ in your individual life and do what is necessary by your confession and meditation to increase its potency in you.

The Holy Spirit will not force the word of Christ on you, but can guide you, lead you if you will, to the pertinent word. However if you will not follow Him, He will not make it happen for you without your consent, agreement and cooperation and what you want from hearing it.

I am conscious that the Holy Spirit was wanting me to up my confessions and meditation on the Word of Christ to me today because there are things that will need me to be at my strongest spiritually to overcome so I will have maximum benefits of what the Lord wants to accomplish through me today and in this season which require the strength of the word of Christ richly dwelling, residing in me so the Holy Spirit can use them in me to accomplish what He planned and purposed for me to do for the glory of His name.

The phrase God gave Joshua in his commission to only be strong and courageous. Well the Lord had already pointed out to Joshua that meditation day and night on His word would achieve that strength in Joshua which would enable him to observe what to do as the word of Christ took hold within him richly.

“This process of daily allowing or permitting the word of Christ to dwell, reside and abide in you richly will always determine what the Holy Spirit will be able to accomplish through you for Jesus on any occasion in life.”

My prayer for you today is that as you hear these words and take them to heart, grace through them will propel you to richly value the worth of what Christ spoke beyond anything that you knew or understood before and make you a recipient of the non ending Might of the power of the Most High to work out extraordinary signs, wonders and miracles on your behalf to glorify Jesus and His name in your life.

I will deal with the other aspects of this word in future posts so the full benefit of the word of the Lord will be available to you and all of its out workings will be made a reality in your daily lives as richly as the Holy Spirit wants and desires you to experience in Jesus name. Amen.

The Holy Spirit spoke to me about the reasons why we should always do the things to ensure He is not against us. It does not matter who is against us if He the Lord is for us but we never want to find ourselves in a position where the Lord is against us.

You say can that be possible? Well the Holy Spirit says so and He is the Spirit of Truth and in the book of Revelation:2 we see Jesus reveal that He is against His people on various occasions and makes it clear to them that reality. Revelation:2.4 But I have this against you: you have lost the love you had at first.

What you have lost you need to find back, the Holy Spirit says. Revelation:2.14 Nevertheless, I have a few things against you: you have some people who hold to the teaching of Bil‘am, who taught Balak to set a trap for the people of Isra’el, so that they would eat food that had been sacrificed to idols and commit sexual sin.

Well you need to stop eating the food sacrificed to idols that family or friends offer you and stop committing sexual sin being offered you.Revelation:2.20 But I have this against you: you continue to tolerate that Izevel woman, the one who claims to be a prophet, but is teaching and deceiving my servants to commit sexual sin and eat food that has been sacrificed to idols.

You need to stop tolerating sin and the teaching of that person who claims a prophetic gift but permits servants of God to commit sexual sin and eat food sacrificed to idols.

Now Jesus was revealing to John what things He Jesus was against that His people were doing in order to repent of them, correct them and get back in line with Him so the Lord could fight for them and not against them.

Now that got my attention because there are times I have felt the Lord fighting against me when I was trying to reach people who obviously He was not. I tolerated what I should not have in the name of an excuse of carnal Christians and a work in progress when Jesus was saying time is up for the person and judgment will be released on them just as Jesus did to the Church in Thyatira in Revelation:2.20-23.

I encourage you to look at it and meditate on it as you will see an area of Jesus that we don’t want to look at because we don’t believe love can do that. However the reality is love does correct and make wrongs right through justice and remember that the foundations of God’s throne are Righteousness and Justice. Psalm.89:14

I learnt this from the Holy Spirit that righteousness cannot be established unless there is a system of Justice to curb offenders and breakers of the law. As the Holy Spirit continued He said I should always evaluate my daily walk with the Lord to ensure that I am not working against the Lord in what I am doing so the Lord does not fight against me.

I need Him most definitely to fight for me and defeat my enemies that rise against me, not Him resisting me. Remember Joshua when fighting against Ai and they were defeated , God said I am not for you so sort out the issue of your sin with Me when Joshua had cried out to the Lord for help.

Now most occasions this happens is when I am extending stupid love, blind loyalty as the Holy Spirit calls it and ignoring the real facts and seeking a way to absolve the individual of responsibility for their actions, big mistake because as Jesus said it will cost me His protection which I cannot afford to lose.

I need to agree with the Lord as we see in these passages in Revelation and change our perspective and align with His truth to continue enjoying the benefits of His shielding of our lives. The Holy Spirit will always point out these truths to us but we have to choose to agree with Him for them to benefit us.

We cannot refuse to climb the ladder provided for us to climb out with and expect we will be safe in the dungeon with evil surrounding us and say no weapon formed against me shall prosper. The weapon is already prospering. I need to climb out to be free not remain there a minute longer suffering unjustly because I won’t take the way out the Lord provides.

Well today as I have shared these truths from the Holy Spirit with you lay hold of the grace they provide you and come out from every agreement you have made that has caused Jesus to be against you and find the way out this word is opening to you to regain Jesus’ support and protection back in your life and His power working for you to defeat your enemies once again and give you a testimony of triumph over the works of the enemy that have sought to swallow you up and ruin your life.

May the good hand of the Lord be restored to you today and may you see triumph beyond measure overshadowing your life again in Jesus Name. Amen

The Holy Spirit continues to astound me each morning in my communion time with Him by enlightening me on things that enable me to be free and walk in the paths the Lord has set for me and I am humbled and grateful for His intelligence and immutable counsel that makes all things possible. Well today He took me through some things about the heart which is imperative for us to know, as God always deals with our hearts for out of them flow the issues or consequences of life.

In Mark:4:12-19 Jesus talks about the 4 soils of the heart in the parable of the sower and they are all dealing with the heart and how that determines our outcomes in life. Only the good heart in the end actually gets what God intended and keeps it. This is where we should all strive to be to experience God’s best for us. Each of the other soils get something temporary but not the tree of life which ultimately will continue bearing fruit going forward.

Now the Holy Spirit began by showing me the three parts of the heart. 1.The eyes of the heart being enlightened, 2. The ears of the heart hearing, hearing and understanding, and finally 3. The mouth of the heart saying which will produce the results we will get depending on how we worked through that process.

I have been aware of all three parts over the years as the Holy Spirit revealed them to me as I spent time with Him but today all three parts came together so precisely I could see so clearly the relation and coordination between them and how working them together always would bring the God desired result and how in the past my neglect and misunderstanding of the correlation of the three enabled the enemy to rob me of God lasting results in the process because either the lusts of the flesh, the lust of the eyes and the pride of life came in and I fell for them because I was deceived by things and situations that meant I could not complete the process and I came short of lasting victory.

Always remember we don’t know everything and need to remain humble and open to further insight and clarity from the Holy Spirit to experience the fullness of God.

The Holy Spirit said that I came off the process because I did not understand the full process and my lack of knowledge in that small issue enabled satan to deceive me and hence rob me of my harvest even though I had done all the hard work. 2:John.2.8 says Be on your guard so that you do not lose all that we have diligently worked for but receive a full reward, came to mind as the Holy Spirit pointed out the reality of what had happened to me because of the lack of understanding to put all three together mixed in order to have lasting result.

The Holy Spirit pointed out to me that I had managed to do that on various occasions and got results which astonished me but because I did not understand the process could not replicate it over again and was robbed of the eternal rewards not knowing this process could and would have given me and it’s like I had to start the process over not sure where I failed and confused that and could be deceived again because I lacked the understanding of the Revelation Knowledge I had.

Just think of Peter being told by Jesus that flesh and blood has not revealed this to you but My father in heaven and you are rock and on this rock of Revelation knowledge I will build my community and the gates of hell will not prevail against it. Matthew:16.17-18 and Jesus calling Peter get thee behind me satan a few verses later.

This was because although Peter had got the beginning of Revelation he had no clue of its operation and satan could take advantage of him and cause him to lose out because if Jesus never went to the cross Peter could never be saved and that Revelation knowledge Peter had would be worthless.

Peter allowed the pride of life coming in to rob him of the complete Revelation and it brought him shame rather than blessing for a period of time till he repented and turned back to the Lord. That is what the Holy Spirit was showing me that has cost me lasting fruit because I knew only the parts but not the correct combination of the parts working together in unity to bring the eternal result.

You can imagine how elated I feel even now as I pen down these words to you to help aid and empower you to use all the necessary tools, equipment to make you fruitful and successful in your walk with the Lord because I have come through now just as Jesus told Peter when you return to Me with the worked out Revelation Knowledge strengthen the brethren.

I pray today that as you hear these words the grace within them will propel you to action and remove every block in your spiritual path that robs you of eternal results and equip you with all you need to will and do for God’s Own pleasure in your lives so that Jesus can have His reward manifested in you as an Ensign (A Sign and Wonder, A beacon of Light, A Standard of Righteousness) in your generation who radiates with the glory of the Lord.

So from today go forth in the might of this word and shine for the Lord brightly in your sphere of influence in Jesus Name. Amen.

This morning the Holy Spirit wants to minister truth to you that will open your spiritual eyes to see in the Spirit and know the timings of the Lord for you and grace to walk in step and line with Him till the process is completed.

The Holy Spirit wants you to be able to complete assignments and projects He gave you on time and in His prescribed way. He spoke to me that too many of His servants are starting well but are not able to complete the tasks He sets for them because distractions and other things come in and choke out the most important thing they should be consumed with.

He reminded me of Nehemiah when he was being harassed to leave the task of building the walls in Jerusalem and the various tactics employed to get him to stop the work and his response to them which should be ours which God commended. I cannot come down to you as I have a good work to complete which I cannot leave regardless of how important you say it is for us to meet up.

We need to be more focused and refuse all distractions from the will of God, even if it is to meet a President or Prime Minister when we should be seeking and doing the things God requires us to do.

The Holy Spirit pointed out that Jesus was completely focused on finishing the work God had assigned for Him to do, that it said of Him zeal for the Father’s House consumed Him.John.2:17. We need to be entirely consumed with passion and zeal to do what God requires and not give room to distractions.

For our spiritual eyes to be enlightened we need to have a program or discipline set that gives daily time to the Holy Spirit to direct us and change our course of action to save and lead us to the things we need to do rather than things we want to do. Our good intentions do not amount to obedience and God prefers obedience to sacrifice.

Just obey Me the Lord says, I don’t need human sacrifice to get my will done but only obedience to my will.

The Holy Spirit reminded me of Mary at the wedding in Canaan when she said to the servants whatever He says to you to do just do it,don’t analyze it or think is it right or wrong ,or what will people think or say about it just do it. The way to expel darkness is with light and the entrance of His word gives light.

We need to as the Holy Spirit pointed out go after Revelation Knowledge because it is the bedrock on which Jesus can achieve His purpose in your life. As Jesus spoke to Peter to come on the water and Peter did walk on the water, but allowed the storm to distract him from Jesus and begin to sink even though Jesus was there in front of Him.

He did not complete the task himself because Jesus had to pick him up in the middle and Jesus asked him why did you doubt, so Peter could do something to eliminate that doubt but did not and missed that opportunity. Our focus must be entirely on the Lord and absent from the distractions that solicit our attention and resolve.

It is more important to obey the Lord than worry about what people will say. Obedience to God is more productive than opinions of men and whichever you choose will determine your outcome be it God’s which is life or man’s which brings death. Jesus says choose life.

Today you have a choice to make, having heard these words that possess the grace to propel you into the will of God, but you have to choose them and embrace them and allow them to work in your heart for you to have the God outcome. I beseech you to receive them and embrace a new beginning and don’t talk yourself out of them and lose a glorious opportunity.

May you today lay hold on eternal life and move forward in the plan of God for you to be the light God intended you to be by signs, wonders and miracles through the working of the Holy Spirit in Jesus Name. Amen.

The Holy Spirit wants to encourage you today to stop saying things that bring storms into your relationships. You have been wondering why you have just been circling and recycling the same situation with your spouse and children even though you are spending more time with the Lord and seem to be gaining momentum only to have conversation which seems to blow up all the good you gained in the Lord and your back speaking words that activate storms and re-run cycles of pain and disappointment that seem far from the word the Lord spoke to you earlier.

I thought they were to be a help and support to me and not the source of problems.

The Holy Spirit wants you to break that cycle by first refusing to speak negatively no matter what aggravates you and how it comes. Remember satan will use that closest person to you to get you as just he used Peter to get at Jesus.Matthew.16:23.

You need to choose the high road and even if you mistakenly speak out of turn, repent immediately and reverse the words with positive confessions and get back in your new position in God of restraining your tongue to speak only what the Lord says and nothing else.

He pointed out that as Job began speaking negative words about himself in Job:3 about his situation his friends who had been with him in his plight only added their negative comments once he started cursing himself and satan now had what he wanted because they kept the fight going and there was no end to it until someone addressed it and changed the narrative to what the Lord’s perspective was.

This occurred in Job:32 when Elihu confronted them with the truth about God and God then showed up in Job:38 and answered Job who then sees his error of statements, repents and can find his life restored back by God and has double what he had before.

God then uses the attempt of satan to outwit Job to enlighten Job and give him more concrete evidence of why he should not just speak loosely, but watch his words which could darken his path with the Lord and create roadblocks for his own life which in turn means he lives out death rather than life because of his words.

Well today the Holy Spirit wants you to wake up and come out of allowing your speech to rob you of the help and aid God has for you first with your family and start aligning back to what God has said to and for you and how He wants you to respond in difficult situations rather than blotting out the lies of satan which still are the ropes he satan then uses to bind and hinder you from expanding and enjoying days of heaven on earth which is God’s intention for you.

May the grace released to you through these words empower you to stop acting repetitively and speaking out of turn and give you courage and strength to speak emphatically for the Lord and stun your adversary and bring you victory in the place of continued failure bringing glory to the name of the Lord and putting satan’s works to shame.

May the story the Lord has for you speak so loud and clear that you are unrecognizable and it is said of you, you have been with Jesus and we admit we only see His Hand and seal on your life in Jesus Name. Amen.
