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.

A glorious Easter / Resurrection Day to you today filled with the fruits of the resurrection power in Jesus abounding in your lives.

Today on the earth we celebrate resurrection Sunday as we celebrate the rising of Jesus from the dead. In actual truth He’s rising up from the grave/tomb. Most people will eat very well and talk about what Jesus did for us and not appropriate the resurrection power concerning their individual lives.

However the Holy Spirit pointed out to me that more than just reminiscing on the day. We should utilize what the resurrection power of Jesus does for us, to raise us out of every dead thing in our lives and make us live again. Romans.4:23-25.

The Holy Spirit reminded me of Lazarus who died, was buried and then came out of the tomb and had a new life in the resurrection power of God. John.11:17-44.Just allow your heart to think of his witness and what people thought of it.

Just imagine the numerous questions of people who saw him living again having come out of the tomb. As everyone was asking him about the process of death? What was it like being dead? What was your experience of leaving your body then hearing the voice of Jesus and instantly coming back into your body and living again because of His voice?

We must therefore now in like manner see resurrection as coming out from a grave where we lay impotent, incapable and lifeless. Now at this point where we come out alive with a vibrant new step in the power of the life of Jesus now exuding through us by the power of the Holy Spirit.

The Holy Spirit continued reminding me of the scripture in Acts:4:33 {look at it today and meditate on it} where it pointed out that the Apostles gave witness to the resurrection of Jesus and what extraordinary results exuded as resurrection power manifested through phenomenal miraculous results. Signs and wonders they had never seen before.

We should expect to experience these same results as we give witness to the resurrection of Jesus from the dead.

So today my precious brethren and sistren I beseech you to reflect purposefully on what Jesus did on this day 2000 years ago. Then boldly declare that you will walk daily in the power of His resurrection with the corresponding results of His miraculous power working through you.

Then watch as your life lifts and raises lost souls out from the dead, then gives the resurrection life of Jesus to them.1 Corinthians.2:2-5.

Be assured that the Resurrection Power of Jesus is real and can only be demonstrated through us on the earth. So choose to agree with God and let your life be witness that the resurrection power of Jesus is real. 2 Corinthians.5:20.

Have a glorious day filled with resurrection life and the great power it exudes as you witness a manifestation of the miraculous for Jesus. Amen.

May this be the greatest Easter day you have experienced in Jesus Name. Amen.

Today being Black Saturday when all seems dark is a wonderful opportunity for us to reflect and look forward with confidence to a mighty resurrection that awaits on Easter day which is certainly to happen because Jesus was raised by the hand of the Lord and now lives eternally.

The Holy Spirit wants you to know today that some needless things in life you are suffering are only present because you did not commit them to Him in prayer. 1 Peter.5:7. They are responsible for the much heartache, regret and shame you are enduring in your lives presently.

Much of the time many of the things we believe we can handle are the very things the enemy uses to trap us and make a mockery of our Covenant relationship with God. Psalm.37:5.

For reference the Holy Spirit reminded me of a tragic situation that happened when we as a family went on vacation to Florida. We committed all our plans to Him and prayed on all the things we would do.

However, the only area we did not commit and pray about were the services we would attend as we knew the ministry we would attend as we knew the Pastor and the messages he preached.

We presumed that because it was Christian/ brotherly event it would be fine. Well guess what! That turned out to be the only hitch we had on our trip and on the Sunday as we went to attend the service we kept having so many hitches on the way.

We considered turning back because the traffic was horrific, and as we were in the process of making this decision. When suddenly the way seemed to open up making us believe God was on our side.

This was an error of judgement because once we finally arrived at the Church all sorts of things started going wrong. Unfortunately in the end after the service which was a big disappointment we had an accident which nearly ruined our whole trip.

However the Lord was gracious to us as we repented as the accident occurred and we were granted a solution from the Holy Spirit who spoke up for us to take immediate action which meant we could enjoy the rest of our trip.

You know that once satan gets a foothold he doesn’t quit but keeps pushing the envelope. So the problem of the accident followed us home to London dragging on and on. It was only resolved much later when the Lord spoke to me to let the matter go and drop my rights.

The Holy Spirit reminded me that because I had not committed that portion of the trip to Him we had fallen into the snare of the devil resulting in so much trouble because the enemy had room to do things we couldn’t have imagined.

The Holy Spirit was reminding me again today to bring every small thing to Him and not presume I can handle it. He reminded me to commit all my ways to Him and not exclude what I think I have covered.

We must allow Him to cover every area of our lives and talk to Him on the small details which seem insignificant but can become a huge mountain before us.

So today bring to the Holy Spirit all the small things you are sure you can handle and watch how you will avoid potential major obstacles and problems which have been your failures in the past.

Please take note of these words as you reflect on your journey with the Lord and get free from the presumption that has harmed you in the past in Jesus Name. Amen. Psalm.19:13.

It is Good Friday!

What a day of remembrance for us the lovers, followers and disciples of Jesus because on this wonderful day our sins were taken away from our lives by Jesus on the cross.

This meant that we became free to serve the Lord without fear in holiness and righteousness all the days of our lives. Luke.1:74 & 75.

Now this reality has positioned us to be bold and courageous to be more than conquerors through Christ Jesus who loved us. Romans.8:37.

These facts and events of the cross means we are now in position to do what the Holy Spirit spoke to me this morning with all boldness, nothing wavering to keep us in the path of life Jesus ordained for us to walk in. Ephesians.2:10.

The Holy Spirit says today stop using your mouth to darken His way for you and hinder your path. Job.38:1 & 2.

Put a permanent stop to the negative thoughts and words you speak when alone, because these are the times that both God and your enemy sees you that others are not aware of. Be assured that these are the words that define your life consequences.

The positive words you speak in Church in the presence of others don’t define you as they are spoken for the benefit of others. However the Lord wants you to speak His words when you’re by yourself and feel helpless for that is when His words will be your strength and give you grace to overcome.

Refrain from giving your enemy ammunition to shoot you down with, but rather give God your words of agreement that you will succeed and fulfil His will for your life.

So today on this day of celebration of your freedom repent for continually giving voice to the enemy. Then receive and embrace the grace to yield your heart to the voice of the Holy Spirit who will bring you out triumphantly.

You will not fail if you just make the turn and give Jesus your words of agreement and support now and going forward. Proverbs.18:20 & 21.

Actually you will experience things progress speedily on your behalf as you will have resolution and restoration of things in your life as you agree with God’s word for you.

Then watch out as you will have a great time of celebration in the goodness of the Lord.

So step in boldly by using God’s words and watch the remarkable changes that will occur in your life in Jesus Name. Amen.

Have an astounding Day in the Holy Spirit enjoying the reality of what Good Friday provided for you. Blessings.

This morning the Holy Spirit ministered to me this morning about the person who feels like good has been eluding you?  It looks like the answers of peace which you expect to be happening for you don’t seem to be working on your behalf?

What seems to be occurring is that the evil situation seems to be continuous without relenting and there seems to be no way out regardless of what you do. 2 Corinthians.4:8-12.

Well Jesus says to you this morning no matter who has not helped you? Whoever has not supported your cause? 2 Timothy.4:16-18.

Would you be made whole again? If you believe this then put aside the reasons for failure because Jesus is now present. Can you receive from His hand reaching out to you now?  

Don’t let the excuses that have hindered you and plagued your soul speak more loudly as Jesus has a mission for you today.  That purpose is for you to get up and out of that lie resulting in condemnation from the devil just as the man in John:5:6-8 got up and was totally healed. 

So today as you hear this word and get up, and whatever has held you bound or kept you in that position for these years will leave you and you will walk free today.

You will experience a changed life free from that scene of disaster you have lived in. 

So receive the grace flowing towards you in this word today. Then experience the transformation from years of pain vanish as your freedom is restored. Then march forward with this God’s ability  to live again in Jesus Name.

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

Are you conscious that the Holy Spirit always asks us questions? Mark.9:23.He does this to help us locate where our faith is. John.6:5 & 6.

Well the Holy Spirit asks you today which voice you will choose to hear and respond to; the voice of sins guilt that continues to remind you that you are nothing and that your sin disqualifies you from God’s provision and best for you? Revelation.12:10b.

Or the voice of the blood of Jesus that made atonement for your sins and speaks the better things that accompany salvation? Hebrews.12:24.

 Today the Holy Spirit says choose to let the blood of Jesus be the voice that overwhelmingly speaks in your heart and propels you to experience the better things. 1 Peter.1:18 & 19.

Yes, all the things that pertain to your life and Godliness. 2 Peter.1:3 & 4. Certainly not the things that bring shame and disgrace which sins guilt draws towards you. Isaiah.25:8.

It will astound you what will happen once you let  the voice of the blood of Jesus speak so loudly in your heart that it obliterates shame and disgrace. 

Then as you continue to allow its provision to work on your behalf you will experience the beautiful melody of God’s plan for you to ring out celebrations of miracles, signs and wonders of Jesus magnitude to saturate your life today and going forward.

May you receive every grace today that the Holy Spirit offers you to walk in this reality in Jesus Name. Amen.

The Holy Spirit spoke these words to me today and I was astounded as to why though I knew them before. However this fresh unveiling of them to me now is staggering because it only requires my praise. 

When God turned the captivity of zion we were like they that dreamt. Psalm.126:1.

The Holy Spirit firstly pointed out to me the state we are in when we dream: fully asleep and literally helpless which means no human exertion or will power of strength is involved when we dream. 

This realization is so important because it means that as God works to turn around our situation we don’t need to be working, thinking or planning what to do but resting in His ability. 

We are to watch as His Hand turns around years of disappointment, frustration, loss and  oppression as He creates beauty out of ashes. Bringing fullness of joy out of sorrow, lemonade out of lemons, triumph out of tragedy.

 This is the position the Holy Spirit whispered to me we should take in life situations that come to threaten us and take us out. We must be still and watch the Lord in action show Himself strong. Psalm.46:10.

 As the Lord told Jehoshaphat in 2 chronicles:20 the battle is the Lord’s so you won’t have to do anything but praise Me and collect the spoils of victory which they needed four days to complete. 

May this working of the Holy Spirit be your story today as you receive this word. Then watch as God rolls back years of issues that have not been resolved where you have done everything yet it failed. 

Stand still now as miraculously you gain so much blessing and profit out the pain of it in Jesus Name as if you are dreaming and then awakened with everything brand new in Jesus Name. Amen.
