This morning the Holy Spirit in our communion time revealed to me more about the unveiling of the Person and character of Jesus in our personal lives so that we are completely lost in who He is and ourselves only reflect who He is. The Holy Spirit reminded me that no matter the level we walked in yesterday there is a new facet of truth for today that compliments and further broadens our scope and working knowledge of Jesus’s authority and how we execute it on the earth to expand out His Kingdom and glory.

I was so full yesterday after my time with the Holy Spirit but have come to realize by reason of experience that after such an awesome time with the Lord there is always a greater place I must press towards which keeps me in check and reminds me of my total utter dependence on the Holy Spirit to guide my actions and keep me rooted in the Spirit in my walk with the Lord.

As I have meditated this morning on the book of Revelation it has been like a brand new experience again with the Lord as my eyes have been opened to things I wonder now how I did not seem to recognize before though I looked carefully at each verse and believed them and received them time and time again.

However when the Holy Spirit highlights truth it is a completely different matter as the perspective He comes from far outweighs my thoughts just as it is written. Eye has not seen, ear has not heard, nor has entered the heart of man the things the Lord has prepared for those who love Him , but He reveals them to us through the Holy Spirit.

It is amazing to behold what John experienced of the Person of Jesus on whose bosom he rested on years and the revealed Jesus he saw as the unveiling of Jesus in His glorified state actually is. John is so awestruck that he falls down as though dead as he sees the resurrected and glorified Jesus from His glorified state in heaven with all authority at His disposal.

This is years after John’s faithful service and witness of who Jesus was to nations and had experienced of His power at work. That reality should always keep us humble because no matter what we have experienced of the Lord it is not the end of who He is in real terms.

Let me now share some of the things the Holy Spirit pointed out to me in this morning’s communion time. As I looked at Revelation.1:5&6 my attention was immediately taken to Romans.5:17 which reads these awesome words of deliverance For if by the one man’s offense death reigned through the one, much more those who receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness will reign in life through the One, Jesus Christ.)

Now I have realized that words describing what God has done are not spoken to impress us with fancy language but, truly even come short many a time of the real import of how great and awesome God actually is and does on our behalf.

It is clear from this statement that what Adam did meant that death has reigned in the human race because of his singular action. This is the reason for iniquity working out in men and our propensity to sin. I was never trained to sin but taught the right things to do by my Parents however I just seemed to be moved to do the wrong thing I was not taught, till Jesus found and saved me and opened my heart to the reality I could live free of sin.

The much more Paul speaks about here is that the sacrifice of Jesus far outweighs the sin of adam and as a result we are able to receive an abundance of grace. This therefore must be our goal much more grace.

That is every grace which is God’s supernatural ability to do and be what God said we could be. Everything necessary for every human being regardless of your background to walk in that which causes us to triumph. This is what Jesus has made available to us so we don’t keep tripping up and missing the mark by stumbling and continually falling short of the will of God.

When you face persecution and hurt for helping others and freeing people from the enemy and you are hurt for no reason but jealousy it can be very trying and distressing but Jesus in this statement makes clear that no matter what transpires in life you will triumph and reign because He gives you the necessary grace and gift of righteousness to make that a reality. You always reign in every situation in life.

I heard Kathryn Kuhlman say that Jesus has done for us so much that we should not suffer a single defeat in any situation in life. I believed that word and have sought live by it so I can experience everything Jesus paid for me to have.

Today again the Holy Spirit is reminding me of its reality and despite my weaknesses and failures as a human, my reliance must be on what Jesus did and provided through Grace to make me able to partake of His righteousness that enables me to reign in life, not my righteousness.

The Apostle Paul goes on to say in 2 Timothy.4:16-18 At my first defense no one stood with me, but all forsook me. May it not be charged against them.17 But the Lord stood with me and strengthened me, so that the message might be preached fully through me, and that all the Gentiles might hear. Also I was delivered out of the mouth of the lion. 18 And the Lord will deliver me from every evil work and preserve me for His heavenly kingdom. To Him be glory forever and ever. Amen!

This is the picture the Holy Spirit was pointing out to me this morning which John experienced of Jesus on the Isle of Patmos: that it was His grace that brought us out triumphant regardless of where we had been trapped and held in captivity.

No wonder Paul could pen down these words in Romans.5 because he experienced personal deliverance and triumph and got to reign in life by the abundant grace of God and His gift of righteousness which Paul knew would work continuously to deliver Paul from every evil work satan could muster to bring Paul down and preserve Paul to complete his service to the Lord on this earth of reaching the Gentile world for the name of Jesus which Paul went on to accomplish.

What the Holy Spirit has planned for us to accomplish for Jesus far transcends our human imaginations but is real and He will grace us with everything necessary to make it come to pass to glorify His Holy Name as we get to reign in life by Jesus the Anointed One.

My prayer for you this morning is that as you hear these words the abundance of grace contained in them will give you all the necessary help, aid and support you need individually to make it through every obstacle and find yourself back in the center of God’s will for your life as a triumpher in all things of evil that seek to harm you and you end up reigning in life by what Jesus did to position you in that place of glory for His name sake.

Let your heart meditate on what Jesus did to save and deliver you and present you to be for His service a true witness of His grace and power for men to see. Break free from the condemnation of the enemy and see yourself walking in the place Jesus ordained for you to be and remember that it is Jesus who asked you to follow Him so He could make you. Not you make yourself as that will fail miserably. Jesus has every equipment and grace available to make you succeed.

So you need to submit and yield to that grace and watch what the Holy Spirit will make out of your life for the glory of Jesus: A banner of light, A gem of glory and standard Bearer of the Omnipotent Power of the Most High God on earth through signs, wonders and unusual miracles and manifestations of the Holy Spirit in Jesus name. Amen.

This morning the Holy Spirit in my communion time with Him spoke to me about not asking the Lord for anything that is conceivable. He wants us to graduate to the place where we only think and act as Jesus acts and does. The Holy Spirit reminded me that on the day Jesus fed the five thousand in John.6 He did not plan the meal and how much He would need, that is the cost necessary to accomplish that goal but just allowed the direction from the Holy Spirit to lead Him how to approach the event that arose.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Yesterday was such a beautiful day because the Holy Spirit prophesied so many things through me about worldly events that will take place in the now, some in the next couple of years. We need to remember that the Holy Spirit has the mission of revealing to us the events of the future so we are prepared to handle different situations and circumstances that arise.

If you look through the Gospels and I invite you to do a specific study on this theme, Jesus was never surprised about anything that happened to and against Him. Jesus was always in the know about future events and He had an exceedingly great and close relationship to the Holy Spirit and pointed out clearly in John.5:19 that He could do nothing except what He saw the Father do. Then Jesus answered and said to them, “Most assuredly, I say to you, the Son can do nothing of Himself, but what He sees the Father do; for whatever He does, the Son also does in like manner. 20 For the Father loves the Son, and shows Him all things that He Himself does; and He will show Him greater works than these, that you may marvel.

This is the place the Father wants us, the followers and lovers of Jesus to walk in. The place where all Jesus wants to do, He reveals to us, and we in turn carry out those instructions on earth and it causes men to marvel. I have found that no matter how dire situations look or appear to be we must not prejudge them, but ask the Holy Spirit what is God’s perspective on it and how does He intend to solve and change the narrative to line up with His will.

I must admit and say that the Holy Spirit’s view on things is far greater and higher than our punny thoughts and imaginations. It is always better not to say what we think but to wait and say only what the Holy Spirit says.

I am reminded this morning as I am writing this post after my communion time with the Holy Spirit of the time in Luke.21:5&6 when the people spoke of the beauty of the temple and the response of Jesus who had a revelation of future events made in response to men’s praise of what is available in the present.

Then, as some spoke of the temple, how it was adorned with beautiful stones and donations, He said, 6 “These things which you see—the days will come in which not one stone shall be left upon another that shall not be thrown down.”

People would say Jesus is speaking words of doom about what is a beautiful place that is a refuge for humans to attend and get blessed. No Jesus was only pointing out the truth that what men revered was going to be torn down.

This is because it did not represent the will of the Father anymore because it was only a nice looking building that had lost its function to help people find God and gain relationship with Him. If those people had any discernment they would have seen that to listen to Jesus and follow what He said would enable them to live in union with the Father and escape the lie which the building had now become and not wait till it was removed to know how to navigate life. To have foreknowledge is greater than hindsight. Remember that reality.

However look at the response of the Disciples of Jesus to what He said in verse 7. So they asked Him, saying, “Teacher, but when will these things be? And what sign will there be when these things are about to take place?” They had recognised from being in relationship with Jesus that He had knowledge of future events because the things He told them had constantly come to pass exactly as He had spoken.

His record on future events prediction was perfect so they knew to ask what was needed to prepare for what He just said.This is exactly how we must be with the Holy Spirit in listening attentively to His prediction of future events then asking Him how we need to prepare correctly the way to respond when those things happen.

The same thing Jesus had we have and that is why Jesus said I will send you another Comforter to be with you forever that is the Spirit of truth who will guide you into all truth and reveal future events to you so you don’t perish, with those who only see from the natural realm and are unable to avoid impending disaster that is headed their way.

They were so sure Jesus knew the exact moment and times of events so they asked what they needed to do. Jesus goes on to tell them to watch out for deception through what men will rise up and start saying to draw them from truth. We also need to make sure we don’t allow new doctrines and fancy things take our attention away from the truth and remain in close communion with the Spirit of truth to get all the latest updates on events pending on the calendar of God the Father and Jesus about to happen on the earth.

What a great privilege we have today to be in relationship with the Holy Spirit who informs us of things that will happen and keeps us protected from harm and danger if we would listen to Him. His help to me has enabled me to navigate so many situations in life successfully and made me ready to face and deal with tricky life threatening situations with grace to triumph no matter what has suddenly sprung up against me.

My prayer for you today is that through these words you will be stirred to take action through the grace supplied to you in them to pursue a greater relationship with the Holy Spirit so you find yourself in a more informed position about the events in life. Your life will dramatically change and become fruitful and productive. Your prayer life will blossom and you will obtain Holy Spirit strategies to obtain answers to your prayers and walk in triumph in every situation in life.

Lay hold with all of your heart of these truths and let the Holy Spirit have a greater influence in the affairs of your life and, just watch and see the difference that will occur in your productivity and fruitfulness.

The end result for you will be that your life will be a sign and wonder for men to see and come to the Knowledge of God for which you were created. Let Jesus light shine out through you so men may see your good works and glorify your Father in Heaven in Jesus Name. Amen.

This morning the Holy Spirit in our fellowship time reminded me of what the Lord has provided for us His followers and the process through which we can lay hold of all the wonderful things we read and wonder about concerning the life of those who walked with God.

We need to remember the Holy Spirit pointed out to me that we have obtained the same precious faith they walked in and for that reason we can also share in all the benefits and true manifestations of what they walked in if we apply and put into action the same things they did.

The Holy Spirit pointed out that we need to stop idolizing what they accomplished and start walking in the same anointings that brought them results so our lives can reflect the glory of the Lord for men to see today.

Let us look at the scripture the Holy Spirit quickened to my heart this morning from 2 Peter.1:1 Simon Peter, a bondservant and apostle of Jesus Christ To those who have obtained like precious faith with us by the righteousness of our God and Savior Jesus Christ: Peter was first of all a bond servant of Jesus which means Peter only repeated what His Master spoke to Him to say and also an Apostle.

Someone sent on an errand with a specific message to deliver from Jesus for a group of people which they are to receive as if Jesus Himself was addressing them with absolute confidence knowing that what was contained in that spoken word would manifest on their behalf if they just received it and embraced it in their lives. As an Ambassador has the authority of the nation he represents to say their decisions on any matter.

This means that what is about to be said should be received, accepted and then applied to your life in the now to change whatever was there before to line up with this new truth. To those who have obtained like precious faith with us by the righteousness of Our God and Savior Jesus Christ. When you are told you have obtained something it means you have possession of it.

You are not hoping you will receive it but you have it in the now. Let me share a story to emphasize this point. As a teenager I remember only telling my friends that I was traveling for holidays when the airline ticket was in my hand and not when we were planning it because anything could happen to stop or cancel it. This was because many classmates would tell us what their parents were discussing about travel and then they never traveled because it was a discussion not a fact and this would mean they were laughed at and derided in class for saying what never happened with words of how was your holiday haha.

On the other hand I would come back with the proof of having traveled with goods that proved it though I had said nothing prior about traveling. I am using this analogy because this is how real having obtained something is, and the Holy Spirit had used it to remind me of my certainty in receiving what God had for me, because it is in your possession and can be used anytime. Peter said we have obtained the same like precious faith that He had which means to me that what Peter did I should also be able to do also.

Let’s look at what Peter’s faith did in Acts.3:6&7 Then Peter said, “Silver and gold I do not have, but what I do have I give you: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and walk.” 7 And he took him by the right hand and lifted him up, and immediately his feet and ankle bones received strength. Peter said such as I have or have obtained the name of Jesus I give you, rise up and walk and the man walked instantly.

Peter was not hoping that someday this would manifest. He knew what he had and released it in the now and it happened exactly as spoken by Peter. The man got up and walked and leaped praising God in the temple.

Peter goes on to explain in Acts.3:12 So when Peter saw it, he responded to the people: “Men of Israel, why do you marvel at this? Or why look so intently at us, as though by our own power or godliness we had made this man walk? Verse.16 And His name, through faith in His name, has made this man strong, whom you see and know. Yes, the faith which comes through Him has given him this perfect soundness in the presence of you all.

The precious faith we received through Jesus Christ has brought about this miracle not Peter’s special relationship with Jesus, but a like precious faith we can also walk in which we have now received. We just need to put it in action as Peter did that day. This is because we received it from Jesus as a gift of His grace not our own ability by the operation of the Holy Spirit.

Years later the same faith works for Peter in Acts.9:33-35 There he found a certain man named Aeneas, who had been bedridden eight years and was paralyzed. 34 And Peter said to him, “Aeneas, Jesus the Christ heals you. Arise and make your bed.” Then he arose immediately. 35 So all who dwelt at Lydda and Sharon saw him and turned to the Lord. Peter again says Aeneas receive healing in Jesus name and it happens immediately and see what results happen on the back of this miracle.

This is the same precious faith Peter tells us that we who have trusted Jesus have also obtained and need to press into using to bring about the miraculous as Peter did so we experience the same results. This only because we have the same access by faith to all the promises Jesus made available to His followers.

My prayer for you today is to believe the words you have heard and receive them as the man at the temple gate and move into the place of manifestation of God’s miraculous power working out signs and wonders on your behalf. May you also find grace in these words to be a demonstrator of this like precious faith by going forth and being an example showing the healing power of Jesus to men as Peter did. Come off the sidelines and be a true witness, participator in the power of the Holy Spirit in demonstration.

Remember Jesus gave it to all who believe in His name in Mark.16:17&18 And these signs will follow those who believe: In My name they will cast out demons; they will speak with new tongues; 18 they will take up serpents; and if they drink anything deadly, it will by no means hurt them; they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover.”

Go ahead and allow the Holy Spirit to make you a faithful servant of Jesus through the word of truth you have received and continue to follow Jesus faithfully and be a standard bearer of the truth of the Kingdom for men to see and come to the knowledge of the truth and become free in Jesus name.

The word of God is real and it works today as it did in Peter’s day. In Cincinnati Ohio when attending a conference, on the day before it, as I met the workers in the church a little boy with his Mum who had a broken ear drum was healed instantly because the Holy Spirit said I should pray for him there and then and not wait for the conference the next day.

The pain he was experiencing was excruciating but he was instantly healed as I prayed for him and he said all the pain had gone and was rejoicing in that moment and we had a healing service as others came forward and were healed as they saw the miracle and he was a testimony in the conference that healing was available to everyone today and we had a glorious time in the Holy Spirit as many were healed and delivered by the power of the Holy Spirit.

May this be the reality of Jesus in your lives by the Power of the Holy Spirit as you have obtained the like precious faith in Jesus name. Amen.

The Holy Spirit this morning in our fellowship time impressed on me to share further on what we need to do after we have boldly come into the holiest place where God dwells. The importance of the posture our hearts must take and be in to fully maximize the benefits we have been granted by God.

We need to remember that everything we gain from the Father God and Jesus depends on the stance our hearts take and how and where our hearts go will determine the progress or failure we experience.The Holy Spirit constantly puts emphasis on where our hearts are in any matter because the heart position will determine the outcome we receive in spite of what God promises.

So let us dig further into Hebrews.10:22 which reads let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water.

We notice firstly that we must draw near to God with a true heart meaning that if we come with a false heart we will not be accepted. The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of truth so in order to embrace His help and support we must desire to know the truth and eradicate lies from our hearts. Our hearts must love truth because only knowing the truth will make us free from deception and its consequences which are death.

So in order to draw near to God our hearts must embrace the truth in full assurance of faith. What is full assurance of faith and how do I walk in that you would ask. Does it mean I need to be perfect and have no faults? Well that is a tall order you will say, and no one can be that and do it. Let us examine that concept of full assurance of faith and see how to use it in our hearts so we can benefit from it to better our experience of God’s best for us in the now.

Full assurance of faith is not dependent on you but on your heart believing what God has already done on your behalf. Your heart must choose to believe what the Lord has accomplished for you and receive it as fact. Your heart must be resolute in believing that what God has said, He will do, and what He has spoken, He will perform or accomplish.

Full assurance of faith is that your heart believes implicitly and confesses what God spoke as if it is so in the now and refuses to believe or accept anything other than that fact. The woman with the issue of blood is a clear example of this fact. She had never met Jesus, never attended any of His meetings, and studied His ministry.

She had only heard witness stories that Jesus heals the sick and on the basis of that fact decided in her heart that if she just touched the hem of His garment she would be healed and kept confessing that fact until the day she was in His vicinity and touched the hem of His garment and experienced what she had said over and over again from her hearts belief that Jesus possessed the power in Him that when she touched Him she would be whole and it happened just as she believed.

Jesus confirmed this truth as He went on to say to her in the presence of everybody present that your faith has made you whole. Not my power but your full assurance in heart of my ability has given you this miracle while those near me have received nothing because they are waiting for Me Jesus to do something rather than approaching Me with an assurance in heart of what I said I came to do in Luke.4:18&19,21 “The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me, Because He has anointed Me To preach the gospel to the poor; He has sent Me [i]to heal the brokenhearted,To proclaim liberty to the captives And recovery of sight to the blind,To set at liberty those who are [j]oppressed; 19 To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord.” 21 And He began to say to them, “Today this Scripture is fulfilled in your hearing.”

From that moment Jesus said this scripture is fulfilled in your hearing any person who drew near in full assurance that what Jesus said and believed it in their hearts could receive by their confession all Jesus said they could have of that promise. This is so not because they are perfect but because they chose to believe what Jesus said they could experience because of Him.

This is how you draw near in full assurance of faith with a true heart and embrace all the Holy Spirit has available for you and receive it because of what Jesus did, not your ability or righteous acts. You have no place to boast about this because you only received it because of what Jesus did to make that possible when you engage your heart.

This assurance of faith then works to sprinkle your conscience from evil works and washes your body with pure water that presents you acceptable to God.

I pray that as you hear this truth the grace flowing from these words will be poured out on you to see it manifested in your life and you walking in the place of full assurance of faith in Jesus’s ability to do everything He promised you can partake of through His sacrifice for you.

Permit your heart only to believe and confess what Jesus said and not the opinions of men and their fears or concerns about God’s ability. Only believe what Jesus declared and live your life resting your heart on what He said and go ahead and experience all the benefits of drawing near to God in full assurance of faith in His ability to do exceedingly abundantly and above all you could ask or think according to His power at work in you in Jesus name . Amen.

The Holy Spirit this morning in our time together reminded me that it is Jesus who determined to show us off as His companions on the earth. Jesus is the person who decided the kind of glory He wanted us to be the revealers of on the earth. The Holy Spirit pointed out to me that we need to have the right perspective on the position God has made us sit in the heavenly places with Him, so that we do not let the lies and deception of satan rob us of what is available for us to walk in and through false humility cost us the very manifestation of the benefits God has made available for us.

Let us look at what God says about us in Ephesians.2:4-7 But God, who is rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, 5 even when we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved), 6 and raised us up together, and made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, 7 that in the ages to come He might show the exceeding riches of His grace in His kindness toward us in Christ Jesus.

Every word spoken here is what the Father purposed that we His children should walk in regardless of the state we were in before. The great love of the Father in releasing Jesus to die on our behalf was not accomplished when we were perfected,but actually when we were dead in trespasses. He chose to make us alive with Christ. He proceeded to raise us up together with Christ, not put us down, which is the intent of the enemy to disqualify us and make us feel small and unqualified to share in what God has freely given us so we reflect shame and disgrace to the name of the Lord.

The operation of grace means we are given the ability by God to have supernatural strength to be and do what only God can do. You would have noted now that each time I write a post in the words given me by the Holy Spirit there is a grace released to the hearer which if you take will enable you to walk and live out what God has promised.

The Apostle Paul who penned down the words we are looking at today from Ephesians was a blasphemer of this very Jesus, who He now says that because of the operation of grace which Paul received, can now walk in a place where the glory of the Lord so overshadows his life that even the close friends of Jesus are startled at that reality.

Paul goes on to manifest Jesus in such a way in Acts.19:11&12 Now God worked unusual miracles by the hands of Paul, 12 so that even handkerchiefs or aprons were brought from his body to the sick, and the diseases left them and the evil spirits went out of them.

Can you imagine demons leaving at the sight of a handkerchief or apron with no one speaking violently to them commanding them to leave from the body of a former blasphemer of Jesus, Paul. The effectiveness of the grace of God which we need to understand more and utilize in our lives through the Holy Spirit, the giver of such grace, will position us to experience the full scope of the promises of God to us. Verse.7 of Ephesians.2 explains the fullness of what the Holy Spirit wants me to convey to you. God wants to show you of by demonstrating a show through your life what is the exceeding riches of His grace in kindness towards you in the ages to come.

A never ending show of Gods exceeding greatness of grace for men to see and marvel at how awesome our God is to do such wonders through our lives. The Lord has no problems doing greater works through our lives. He wants us to share His nature and Jesus always encouraged His followers to have and do greater works than He did. Jesus cursed the fig tree in Mark.11 but invited Peter and whoever heard those words to speak to mountains and command them to move and see them move because of words they spoke.

The Holy Spirit wants you to know without a shadow of doubt that He wants to work miracles, signs and wonders through your life so that the name of Jesus will be seen and made known through vessels of clay so that the excellency of the power may be of God and not men for all to see.

I pray today that as you hear these words and receive them because in John.1:12&13 it reads But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name: 13 who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. Your receiving the words of Jesus will make them become active and alive in your life. The Grace will then flow towards you and you will become a New person.

Everything God wants to show through your life will be made manifest because you believed and received in your heart what the Holy Spirit is saying through this word to you today.

Forget about yesterday because with God it is always about today when you hear His voice and respond a new dawning of life and light begins. May your life take the shape of the show the Father has planned for you and may you reflect His glory on the earth for men to see and glorify His name in Jesus name. Amen.

The precious Holy Spirit, my best friend, my Helper, my confidence, my everything this morning in my communion time with Him shared with me more on the boldness and confidence of heart I need to have continuously to walk in the fullness of all the inheritance the Father has made available to me in the now.

As I meditated on the word which I encourage you to do everyday as the Lord is the One who instructed Joshua in Joshua.1 to meditate on the word day and night and not let the word depart from his mouth, because continually doing so will enable him to observe to do all that is written in it, and thus make his way prosperous and find good success.

Everybody wants good success but not everybody wants to meditate on the word all day long. However doing so does bring exactly what God said would happen that is good success.

As I did the Holy Spirit pointed out to me Hebrews.10:19-23 which reads these life changing words which I encourage you to declare aloud over yourself : Therefore, brethren, having boldness to enter the Holiest by the blood of Jesus, 20 by a new and living way which He consecrated for us, through the veil, that is, His flesh, 21 and having a High Priest over the house of God, 22 let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water. 23 Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful. Let me share how you take this word and declare it over your life.

I am qualified as Jesus’s brethren today, so I have boldness, no more timidity or fear or inferiority complex to enter the Holiest place in the Universe. Not because I have a righteous right I have attained, but through the blood of Jesus that has made atonement for my soul.

My boldness is in what the blood of Jesus has accomplished for me to empower me to enter into the Presence of the Holiest in a new and living way Jesus has made available to me through His flesh on my behalf.

My confidence is in what Jesus’s blood made available to me and for that reason I am as bold as a lion when approaching the Father knowing I will not be denied access because the blood of Jesus speaks the better things for me that accompany deliverance.

Now just let these words permeate your heart and soul and wash all over your being and see what the Holy Spirit will do on your behalf. It is staggering what the reality of what Jesus did for us will do to energize and revive your whole perspective of God, faith when you apply the truth to your life.

When you see yourself from God’s perspective of you, your heart will explode with ultimate gratitude for the achievement that has occurred on your behalf through the blood of Jesus sprinkled for your benefit. Jesus alludes to this reality when in Mark.25-34 the woman with the issue of blood approaches Jesus on the basis of what she had heard of Him and boldly takes her miracle without even speaking to Jesus, but her continuous saying if I touch Him I will be whole, and when she touches the hem of His garment power goes from Him to heal her because she boldly approaches His Presence and gets healed instantly while those around Jesus are wondering what is happening.

Jesus stops because it gets His attention and chooses to use her as a testimony of how we should respond to God and allows her to share what she did regardless of the fact that He, Jesus has been stopped on His way to attend to the daughter of Jairus who was on the verge of death and Jesus needed to arrive before death to save her. It adds to what Jesus achieves in the house of Jairus which is to raise the dead.

This is the level of boldness we need to exude in confidence as we approach the Holiest place in the Universe and receive everything Jesus has bought and paid for us to experience through His blood that speaks on our behalf better things that accompany deliverance.

My prayer for you this morning is that as you hear these words and receive them the grace of boldness will be imparted to you and you will approach the Throne of God Most High and receive what you are needing that seems to have eluded you and come out triumphant as the lady with the issue of blood and have a new story of what the Lord has accomplished on your behalf.

You will become a witness to the might of the Hand of the Holy Spirit working in the now of life for you.

May you also continue in this process and develop your heart and soul to live continually in this place of boldness in the Lord where you continuously approach the Holiest place in the Universe and your life becomes an emblem of Praise and a sign and wonder in your generation who reflects as a Gem the awesomeness of the power and reality of the kingdom of Jesus for men to see and glorify His wonderful name in Jesus name. Amen.
