Today I am sharing Part two of my communion time with the Holy Spirit on us allowing the Word of Christ to dwell richly in us.

I am conscious through this word that the Holy Spirit was specifically wanting me to increase my confession and meditation on the Word of Christ in this season because there are things I need to do that will require me to be at my strongest spiritually in order to overcome them. I know that I need the maximum benefit of the word of Christ influencing me because of what the Lord wants to accomplish through me in this season.

For that to happen, the Word of Christ must dwell richly in me much more strongly, deeply, by continually residing in me so that the Holy Spirit can use that Word within me to accomplish what He has planned and purposed for me to do for the glory of His name.

This brings us to the principle revealed in Joshua’s commission, when the Lord told Joshua to only be strong and courageous. So even though the Lord had already shown Joshua how that strength would be developed which was through meditation on His Word day and night.

Continuous meditation would cause the Word to take hold within the heart of Joshua, by giving him the strength necessary to observe what he was to do. The Word was not longer merely information Joshua possessed, but it was becoming an inward governing reality that enabled him to act according to the Lord’s instructions.

This fact reminds us that the process of meditation is continuous through us daily allowing, permitting, and choosing for the Word of Christ to dwell, reside, and abide richly in us will always be the determining fact about what the Holy Spirit is able to accomplish through us for Jesus on any occasion in life.

The Holy Spirit’s desire is not simply that we hear Scripture occasionally or just knowing biblical statements intellectually. He truly wants the Word of Christ to become rich within us to the point where it lives in us, influences us, governs our responses, shapes our decisions, strengthens our faith, and becomes fully expressed through our lives.

When the Word of Christ dwells richly in us, the Holy Spirit has much greater liberty to work through us and accomplish God’s purposes. This is why our hearts response to the Word matters so much because we must not just merely admire the Word. We must receive it, confess it, meditate upon it, obey it, and allow it to become established within us. The measure of our engagement with the Word will affect the measure of its operation in our lives.

My prayer today is that as you hear these words and take them seriously, the grace supplied through them will work to propel you into a richer appreciation of the worth of what Christ has spoken. May you start valuing His Word beyond anything you previously knew or understood and may you become an increasing recipient of the never-ending might and power of the Most High working in and through your life.

May the Holy Spirit use the richly dwelling Word of Christ in you to produce extraordinary signs, wonders, and miracles on your behalf and through you, thus bringing glory to Jesus and His name. This fact is not merely about you just knowing more Scripture but it is about allowing what Christ has spoken to become so richly established within you that the Holy Spirit can use it to accomplish His purposes through our lives.

Holy Spirit, thank You for being the perfect Mentor who knows exactly what I need and when I need it. Thank You for continually bringing me back to what matters and helping me keep pace with You. Today, I give the Word of Christ permission to dwell in me richly. Please help me to value Your Word more highly, by confessing its reality continually, and meditating upon it diligently, and allowing it to influence every area of your life.

It is time to deny yourself daily, take up your cross, and choose to follow Jesus rather than lead Him. I ask you to give me grace to cooperate fully with You and to respond correctly whenever You bring the pertinent Word to me. Strengthen me through the richly dwelling Word of Christ in me so that I may overcome everything I am called to overcome in this season.

Let the Word of Christ live, work, and abide in me so fully that You can accomplish Your plans and purposes through me for the glory of Jesus. Make me fruitful, productive, and available for extraordinary signs, wonders, and miracles that glorify the name of Jesus.

I declare in the name of Jesus that the Word of Christ dwells richly in me and I give the Word permission to live, reside, abide, and breathe in and through me. I will never allow the Word of Christ to dwell poorly in me through complaining, foolishness, negativity, or unbelief. I choose to value the Word of Christ above every earthly concern.

I receive the grace to confess the Word continually and meditate upon it day and night. I declare that the Word of Christ is becoming more deeply established within me, making me stronger and more courageous, thus enabling me to know and do what the Holy Spirit requires of me.

I declare that I will attempt to lead Jesus, but I will surrender to His will and I will follow Him. I will never resist the Holy Spirit’s guidance but I will cooperate fully with Him. So that as the Word of Christ dwells richly in me, the Holy Spirit is having increasing room and scope to accomplish His purposes through me in Jesus name. Amen.

I declare that I am spiritually strengthened for this season through the word of Christ dwelling richly in me. I will overcome everything I am called to overcome. I declare that all the plans and purposes of the Lord will be accomplished through me, and I will experience the extraordinary working of the power of the Most High in my life.

Signs, wonders, miracles, fruitfulness, and productivity will bring glory to Jesus and His name because the Word of Christ will live in me richly, work through me powerfully, and produce everything the Holy Spirit desires to accomplish through my life, in Jesus’ name. Amen!

Today I am sharing a part of my communion time with the Holy Spirit speaking about us allowing the word of Christ to dwell richly in us.

This morning, the Holy Spirit spoke a word through me from Colossians.3:16 that came through so clearly I my spirit that it captivated my whole being. The Holy Spirit has many ways of communicating with us in order to capture our attention, to return us back to what truly matters, which ensures that we are keeping up with Him in all things rather than lagging behind.

The Holy Spirit is the perfect Mentor who knows exactly what we need, exactly when we need it, and has the power available to make whatever is necessary available to us instantly for our benefit. This is why we should continually thank Jesus for the indescribable gift of the Holy Spirit because of the continuous support, help, and aid He gives us to succeed in life, by us becoming very productive for the kingdom thus bringing glory to Jesus.

The Scripture the Holy Spirit quickened to me was Colossians.3:16 which reads these words:“ 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.” At first, we may think, “I already know that Christ dwells or lives in me, so what is new or special about this?”

The truth is that the Holy Spirit was enlarging my understanding of an important truth that we have the responsibility of allowing the Word of Christ to dwell in us richly. The Scripture says that we should, “Let the word of Christ dwell in us richly.” This means that we are the ones who must give permission to the Word to take up residence in our hearts and determine how deeply it influences our lives more richly.

How we choose to see, interpret, receive, and apply the Word of the Lord will determine the impact it has upon us whether richly or poorly. It is possible for the Word to dwell poorly in us, through our foolishness, complaining, negative words, and attitudes that ultimately cause harm to ourselves and negatively affect others, thus bringing disrepute to the name of Jesus. Unfortunately we see too much of this among believers.

However the Holy Spirit pointed out that we can choose something different which is to allow the word of Christ to completely saturate our being and make us into the image of Christ working richly through our lives. We can also allow the Word of Christ to dwell richly in us through our diligence in confessing the Word continually and meditating upon it repeatedly until it begins to dwell, live, and breathe in and through us.

The Holy Spirit’s reminder today is an awakening of our spirits back to increasing our confession and meditation on the Word of Christ the Anointed One by letting all His anointing ( the burden removing, yoke destroying, world overcoming, barrier breaking, always triumphing, earth shaking power of God to manifest through our lives. As we do this, we give the Holy Spirit greater room and scope within us to perform the Word of Christ in and through our lives.

This process requires our daily surrender. So we must deny ourselves daily, not merely weekly or monthly, by taking up our cross, and following Jesus. We cannot truly follow Jesus while attempting to lead Him, direct Him, or determine the path forward ourselves. So how we respond to the Word of Christ( the anointing) will determine how much that Word lives, works, and abides in us today.

The Word must be allowed to richly impact every area of our lives. We must receive what Christ has spoken over us as more valuable than our daily concerns about food, clothing, resources, and personal provision. We are to pursue His Word faithfully rather than making the pursuit of resources for ourselves our primary concern or goal.

Jesus also warned us in Mark.4:24 to “take heed how you hear” the Word, because the measure we use will be how much will be measured back to us. The value we place upon the Word will determine how much we benefit from it. If we do not allow the Word of Christ to influence our daily decisions, it will not produce the necessary transformation we desire. Therefore: We are the determiners of how much the Word of Christ will benefit us.

So if you are dissatisfied with your results, the Holy Spirit is calling you to examine how you see, value, receive, confess, and meditate upon the Word of Christ in your individual life. Change the way you value the Word by increasing your confession, and increasing your meditation. Give the Word greater access and influence within your heart, and allow its potency to increase, broaden out expand the results in your life.

The Holy Spirit will never force the Word of Christ upon you. He will guide you if you give Him the permission and He will lead you to the pertinent Word you need at the right time. He will direct you to the exact truth necessary for your situation which will bring unusual divine solutions for your life. However you must cooperate with Him.

If you refuse to follow Him, He will not make the Word produce its intended effect in you without your consent, agreement, and cooperation. So be aware that there must be a willing response on your part to hear what He is saying to you. The Holy Spirit is always looking for our participation so that what we receive from Christ can become operational in our lives.

I declare in the name of Jesus that the Word of Christ dwells richly in me and I give the Word permission to live, reside, abide, and breathe in and through me. I will never allow the Word of Christ to dwell poorly in me through complaining, foolishness, negativity, or unbelief. I choose to value the Word of Christ above every earthly concern.

I receive the grace to confess the Word continually and meditate upon it day and night. I declare that the Word of Christ is becoming more deeply established within me, making me stronger and more courageous, thus enabling me to know and do what the Holy Spirit requires of me.

I declare that I will attempt to lead Jesus, but I will surrender to His will and I will follow Him. I will never resist the Holy Spirit’s guidance but I will cooperate fully with Him. So that as the Word of Christ dwells richly in me, the Holy Spirit is having increasing room and scope to accomplish His purposes through me in Jesus name. Amen.

Today I continue the revelation from the Holy Spirit for this season at the head of the year of walking in the place where no good thing is withheld from your life.

We must be open to expand our understanding of what doing good really means to us, so we can benefit from the full scope of the goodness of the Lord that will no longer be withheld from us.

Since everything the Lord created was good and James went on to remind us in James.1:17 of how every good and perfect gift comes from above and comes down from the Father of lights in whom there is no variation and shadow of turning. How can we justify allowing evil things to harass and oppress us without standing against them with all the fullness of God given to us.

The Holy Spirit then started to expound on all the areas where good had been withheld from my life and revealed how I should recover them all back in this year on a daily basis just as Job had double good of all he had lost restored back to him to ensure that his latter end was greater than his beginning. The Holy Spirit spoke of harvests of financial seeds which I have not fully received in the measure the Lord expected me to have.

It is important to remember that though I have been thankful for the limited scope of resources I have received that should not stop me from demanding my hundredfold return which Jesus promised to all who left all things to follow Him. As He made me aware of the fact that satan is the person responsible for withholding the good in this area how I must go after the missing harvests and without fail recover all as David did when his resources were stolen in Ziglag when the enemy attacked him and stole all that he and his men owned.

He spoke of how we must become militant in our response to receiving anything less than what the Lord has apportioned for us to have. We should be walking in the exceedingly, abundantly above all that we ask or think according to His power that works in us. We should be open in heart for the fullness of the power of the Lord to operate within us which would result in greater manifestations of the miraculous happening in our lives.

The Holy Spirit reminded me of Acts.5 where the shadow of Peter was healing and bringing deliverance to people who came from far and wide to just get to his shadow and receive good as their infirmities were instantly healed. In that same instant there was a financial revolution that happened where all those in need were released from whatever limitations the enemy had used to keep them poor even though they had given their lives to serve Jesus.

The Holy Spirit pointed to the place in Acts.19 where the Lord worked unusual miracles through the hands of Paul to the point where handkerchiefs and aprons were brought from his body to the sick, and the diseases left them and evil spirits went out of them.

This is a clear demonstration of how no good thing was being withheld from the Lord’s people as the limitations that had caused evil results were instantly released from the people as they now experienced the good the Lord had always intended them to have. It was a clear demonstration of the fact that the Lord wanted His people to experience only good things happening in their lives.

What of the explosion of joy that was manifested in Samaria in Acts.8 where Philip brought mass deliverance and healing to the people that resulted in an avalanche of good results happening to such a degree that there was joy overtaking the city. Can you imagine how good it must have been to see so much good happening in one day that changed the destiny of that whole region from sorrow and sighing to joy unspeakable and full of glory.

This is place the Holy Spirit wants us to walk in this year where all good that had been withheld from our lives is swallowed up by the Lord’s goodness to such a degree that overwhelming joy is the fruit of our lives. It should be so clear to you from the references from scripture of the fact that the Lord wants us to be free from the evil things that withhold the good He created for us to experience here on earth that we become violent in our opposition to the works of the devil that have been employed to oppress our lives here on earth against the will of the Lord.

This fact was clearly pointed out by Jesus in Matthew.11:12 which reads these words: And from the time of John the Baptist until now the Kingdom of heaven suffers violence, and the violent take it by force. The force of violence we use is faith to recover all the losses we have experienced through evil results, bad breaks, curses and demonic means working on the earth to limit us from experiencing the good the Lord created us to have on the earth.

The Lord made this clear once He created man to rule the earth in Genesis by saying that things were now very good because man would tend to all the good things the Lord had created on earth to mirror heaven’s order. So Jesus came to the earth anointed with the Holy Spirit and power to remove the oppression of the devil and anoints us today to carry out the process of doing good on the earth by freeing those oppressed by the devil because God was with Him.

This understanding of the fact that the Lord is withholding no good thing from us will bring an awakening to the Lord’s purpose for our individual and corporate lives on earth as we see the oppression of the devil eradicated from the lives of the Lord’s people replaced by joy through the Holy Spirit which is our strength overflowing in our daily lives.

May the abundant grace from these words so stir you up to action to see so much good restored to your life that changes your story to be one where you are experiencing every area of your life flooded with the goodness of the Lord.

I declare that in the name of Jesus that I will no longer walk on this earth with any limitation of good imposed by the devil on my life. I am determined to walk free of every oppression the devil has used to limit my progress on earth as a witness to what the Lord Jesus has accomplished to restore man back to his position of Ruler over the earth.

I decree that by the power of the Holy Spirit there will be an operation of unusual miracles, signs and wonders happening through my life as I recover all the years of loss through the withholding of good from my life which the devil used with the intention of keeping me silent from declaring the true message of the Kingdom which is total deliverance from the oppression of the devil.

I declare that my life will become a representation of heavens throne room being manifested here on earth as the goodness of the Lord in all things is clearly manifested through my life for people to witness the reality that the Kingdom of Jesus is truly present on the earth for men to see and experience as it was in the start of the Church through the hands of the Apostles in Jesus name. Amen.

A blessed Rosh Hashanah to you. It is the head of the year and we had a wonderful day of celebration recalling all the wonderful things the Lord has done over the past year.

Our worship was wonderful and truly anointed and the food/ feasting was great. Today is the second day of the celebration and this morning I am taking time to bless my extended family and share with you a part of the word the Lord gave us for this new season.

The Holy Spirit spoke to me from Psalm 84:11b which reads these words: No good thing will He the Lord withhold from those who walk uprightly. I know this verse very well but the Holy Spirit revealed a deeper and clearer understanding of this scripture which opened my eyes to things I had never seen before which is always what He does which is to guide us into all truth.

The Holy Spirit always provides us with much more truth that makes us free and enables us to experience greater manifestations of the exceedingly great and precious promises the Lord has for us. Let me now break down the important substance of this word for you so you can appropriate its benefits into your life from today which is really what the Lord wants to happen for your lives now.

We find that from Genesis 1 that when the Lord created the earth He said that everything He created was good which culminated on the sixth day when he created man and said it was now very good. This makes it perfectly clear that the Lord has never changed His intentions concerning us experiencing good in our lives so He has not suddenly started withholding good from us because everything that flows from Him is good with no exceptions.

When we realise this fact the Holy Spirit pointed out our expectancy will dramatically change and we will live in the place where we expect Him to do exceedingly abundantly above all, that we ask or think according to His power that works in us. Ephesians.3:20. It also makes clear the fact that when good is withheld from our lives it is never sourced from the Lord because He has no evil or bad things flowing from His throne.

Let this fact sink deep into your spirits/ hearts. Meditate this reality till it becomes the only basis on how you think and process your life on earth. Remember James.1:17 reminds us of the fact that every good and perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow of turning. Again we see that only good comes from the Father with no variation of that reality.

Therefore anything evil or bad does not emanate from Him, so we should not receive it into our lives. We are the products of a Good God who does not manufacture deficient goods. This reality in itself should change your whole perspective of your life. The Lord is a far greater manufacturer than Boeing or even Rolls Royce who create the planes we fly in to visit different nations.

We are confident in the safety of those aircrafts not to end us up at the bottom of the sea but to bring us to the desired nation we want to visit. The fact that God is good and never evil should propel us into experiencing only the good things in life and refusing to accept the evil things that try to change that story in our lives.

The Holy Spirit continued explaining this fact by drawing my attention to Acts10:38 which reads these words: How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and power who went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed of the devil because God was with Him. This makes it perfectly clear that oppression in any form is of the devil and when the Lord visited earth through Jesus the good He did was to remove every variation of good from the earth by destroying the works of the devil.

In order to establish this reality in my heart the Holy Spirit pointed out that in Job.1 that satan the author of evil said to the Lord that he was unable to hurt Job because the Lord had protected him on every side and he was upset because only good was flowing in the house of Job and he could do nothing about it and was requesting that the Lord should curse Job so good would cease happening in his life which the Lord rejected.

If the Lord had gone on to curse Job there would have been a variation in His goodness and a deficiency in His faithfulness which can never happen because the Lord changes not. These two scriptures make it unequivocally clear who the author of evil and bad things is: the devil who started that process on the earth when Adam and Eve partook of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil in the garden of Eden in Genesis 3 in disobedience to the commandment of the Lord.

From that time onward we begin to see evil manifesting on the earth through thorns and thistles, sickness, disease and other forms of oppression emanating from the devil seeking to change the narrative of the earth. However when Jesus came, He went about changing that narrative and reintroducing the narrative of the Lord which is to do good by healing all those oppressed of the devil thus restoring good.

Let these words of truth become the bedrock of your relationship with the Lord and change all other negative belief systems you have allowed to corrupt the truth of who authored evil and bad things on this earth happening which culminates in death and a removal of man from the earth he was created to rule.

There is so much more in this revelation the Holy Spirit gave me which I will further break down in future posts so you have a clear picture on how you must run your lives starting from this head of the year which will remain your pattern throughout the year so your end of year will be far greater than when you started because you are now operating in the fullness of the revelation of the Lord.

It is now time to declare how your year will proceed now that you know it is not the Lord’s will for you to have bad things and evil in your life affairs.

In the name of Jesus I declare that all evil events and bad things that have happened in my life are uprooted, torn down, destroyed, and demolished in my life, and that the Kingdom of Jesus which reflects good is built and planted in my life so that there is a restoration of all the years of good I missed out on being restored back into my life in this year.

I declare that where I allowed the enemy room in my life through deception I repent and cast out the spirit of lies and now recover my fruits and harvests of good things happening in my life.

I receive my healing from every oppression of the devil that has sought to afflict my life circumstances and keep me in a place where I am walking short of the covenant I have with the Lord.

I declare that I have been blessed with every spiritual blessings in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus so I will experience every empowerment to prosper and succeed in every project I do so my life reflects the triumph of good in in every area of my life in this new season of life in Jesus name. Amen.

Today I am sharing a condensed summary of my communion time with the Lord to help you use it more easily to deal with the circumstances which you are facing as your equipment for the day.

This morning in my communion time, the Holy Spirit reminded me again of the faithfulness of our Father which is both steadfast and immutable. So why should we entertain any thought other than what the Lord has said concerning us? Does the Lord ever listen to the accusations, opinions, anger, or jealousy of men before deciding whether He will fulfil His Word in our lives? Absolutely not.

The Holy Spirit wants us to understand that what the Lord has spoken is forever settled and nothing can stop Him from doing what He has promised. However, our thoughts can hinder our participation in the manifestation of His word when we start agreeing with fear, doubt, and the voice of the adversary instead of agreeing with what the Lord says.

The Lord says concerning us in Isaiah.66:9 these words: “Will I open the womb and not deliver? I have made this place labour in terrible pain, But do you think I won’t help it give birth? That is what I, the Eternal One have to say.” In other words when the Lord opens a womb, He intends for it to bring forth children/ fruit. He does not create something for one purpose and then abandon it at the point of its fulfilment.

Sarah the wife of Abraham was barren, yet at ninety years old she conceived and gave birth to Isaac. The Lord was able to reactivate her womb which had appeared incapable of producing all her life. The miracle was not dependent upon their human strength or wisdom but upon the faithfulness and ability of the Lord because the Lord created the womb to deliver, and deliver is what the womb will do.

Perhaps you have experienced much pain, struggle, delay, opposition, and storms around something the Lord has spoken over your life. Does this mean that you would conclude that the Lord has suddenly lost His power at the very point of delivery concerning your situation? Just remember Peter when Jesus told him to come to Him on the water, and Peter actually walked on the water.

However when he accepted another thought, he began to sink. Jesus asked him, “why did you doubt.” The problem was not that Jesus had withdrawn His ability it was that Peter had allowed a contrary thought to replace his confidence in Jesus’ word. Therefore, the Holy Spirit is calling us back to unswerving agreement with the word from the Lord.

Never let the voice of the enemy become louder than the voice of the Father to you by allowing fear to make you question whether the Lord is able to complete what He began with you. His nature has not changed and His faithfulness has not changed because His ability has not diminished.

The sun continues to fulfil its assignment for the earth because the Lord put within it what it needs to continue. In the same way, the Lord’s purposes do not depend upon the strength of men because what He has ordained, He has also made provision for. So the Holy Spirit is saying: Agree with Me and Believe Me to the end of fulfilment. It is time to lay hold of the grace to step completely out of doubt and into confidence in the Lord’s immutable counsel.

Laugh in the face of obstacles and ridicule the enemy as you march fully into what the Lord has promised you, knowing that the One who spoke is faithful. Ephesians.3:20 reminds us that the Lord is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us.

Therefore, let us repent of every thought that has questioned the Lord’s ability to help us by returning to the place of complete trust. Let us remain steadfast and immovable concerning what He has spoken. What the Lord has promised will come forth.

Father, I repent for every time I have allowed doubt, fear, circumstances, or the words of others to make me question Your ability to fulfil Your Word. Holy Spirit, help me to agree completely with You and restore my confidence in the Father’s faithfulness. Teach me to believe Your Word to the very end and to remain steadfast when I am standing at the point of manifestation.

I receive the grace to trust You without wavering by refusing every thought that says that the Lord will fail, abandon, or withdraw from what He has promised you. I choose to believe that You are faithful, and I choose to agree with You to walk in rich fulfilment in Jesus’ name. Amen.

I declare that I will believe the Lord to the end and I will not surrender to doubt, fear, opposition, or the voice of the adversary. I declare that what the Lord has spoken concerning me will come forth and the womb of my heart will deliver because the promise will be fulfilled. I receive grace to remain steadfast and immovable until I see the full manifestation of the Lord’s Word. My mind agrees with the Lord and my heart agrees with the Lord.

I declare that my words agree with what the Lord has spoken and my actions agree with the Lord. I will no longer accommodate thoughts that hinder my cooperation with the Lord’s purpose because I remain aligned with His immutable and unswerving counsel concerning me.

I trust implicitly the One who promised me the blessings, because He is faithful and nothing will stop His purpose for my life. I will see the goodness, faithfulness, and power of the Lord manifested in full measure, with nothing missing and nothing broken, in Jesus’ name. Amen!

Here is the conclusion to my communion time with the Holy Spirit on the things we must always stand against in our lives that Jesus has given to us so we remain steadfast and immovable in our walk with the Lord.

The Holy Spirit also taught me how to deal with the contests that would arise against my trust in the Lord and against His authority over my live. So Psalm.2 became a reality to me as the platform of my warfare strategy for dealing against the enemy with what raged against my relationship with the Lord.

This reality of the enemy staging purposeful attacks against the servants of the Lord I could clearly understand in light of the fact that Psalm.2 contains a prophecy concerning opposition against Lord’s purposes on earth, and Peter later alluded to this prophecy in Acts.4, when the believers prayed concerning the people and authorities who had come together in opposition to Jesus and His work.

That prophetic pattern revealed that alliances could arise against the anointing and against the Lord’s work. So the understanding given by the Holy Spirit made it possible for me to recognise and deal with the schemes and strategies that satan raised against me with confidence that my outcome would be triumph no matter the assault. So rather than being surprised by opposition or becoming passive under it, we as Jesus’s followers must learn that Jesus wants us His people strong, courageous, and fully able to stand their ground and take territory on His behalf.

The anointing the Lord gives us is so that we the followers of Jesus would not live passively under the circumstances of life but overcome them all. The anointing was given to make us to become Burden removers, Yoke destroyers, World overcomers, Always triumphers, Barrier breakers and earth shakers who go about healing all who are oppressed by the devil because the Lord is with us. We are called to manifest the Lord and His name on a daily, persistent basis and demonstrate that the Lord rules in the affairs of men on the earth.

This means our lives should continually testify to the Lord’s dominion, power, presence, and victory. We are not to allow the works of the devil to establish permanent territory in our lives. The message gives a strong warning that “We are never to allow passivity to have a place in our lives as it is a sign of backsliding.” The follower of Jesus is called to be forward-moving. We are to press into what the Lord has prepared ahead of us rather than continually looking backward or remaining trapped in what has already happened.

The Lord wants us to be overcomers regardless of the situation we face. This principle is repeatedly demonstrated in the book of Revelation, where Jesus speaks to seven churches. Each church had different circumstances, struggles, obstacles, and challenges, yet the message to each one consistently included the command to overcome. The obstacles were different, but His requirement remained the same: Overcome.

The next spiritual level, the next position, and the next dimension of authority are only reached by continually refusing to surrender to the obstacle and continuing to overcome. There is a recognisable pattern in the instructions the Holy Spirit gives that require us to do something. The purpose is always to bring us back into active engagement with the Lord. The Holy Spirit’s instructions are not designed to leave us sitting passively in our circumstances but they call us back into action, movement, participation, and advancement.

Every instruction from the Holy Spirit is intended to get us engaged again so that we can take more ground and move into greater results for the Kingdom. Therefore, hearing this word today must produce spiritual action in your life. The grace accompanying this word must be allowed to establish victory within us and permeate our entire being until it produces a decisive response. We must actively disallow every work of the devil from having any further place or portion in our lives.

Acts.13:46 gives us a clear example of the level of boldness required to fulfil the will of God: “Then Paul and Barnabas grew bold and said, “It was necessary that the word of God should be spoken to you first; but since you reject it, and judge yourselves unworthy of everlasting life, behold, we turn to the Gentiles.” Paul and Barnabas did not remain endlessly pleading with people who had rejected the Word but they grew bold and acted according to what the Lord had instructed them to do.

This same boldness must characterise our response to the oppression of the devil. There must be no more morbidly lingering around complaining about the oppression we are experiencing or suffering. There must be a decisive declaration against it saying: “You are leaving now because I will not tolerate you hurting and harming me any longer.” This is the posture of someone who has recognised the victory Jesus has already made available for them to exercise here on the earth.

Our response is to rise up in the triumph of Jesus and resist every form of oppression from the devil. We as followers of Jesus must move into a life free from the dominion of the law of sin and death and choose instead to walk in the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus, which sets us free from the law of sin and death.

Our declaration therefore becomes: “Oppression of the devil, leave my presence now in Jesus name and never come back, as I will not allow you place to hurt me any longer in Jesus name.” This is a declaration of resistance, authority, and refusal to give oppression permission to establish itself in our lives. The emphasis of this declaration is not passive observation but active resistance.

As you take your stand in what Jesus accomplished for you, watch what happens to the oppression which you have been experiencing. It will diminish and become nothing before you. The reason for this is that you are no longer agreeing with its right to dominate you by standing in what Jesus suffered and accomplished on your behalf. Jesus paid the price so that you do not have to continue suffering under the very works He came to destroy.

Therefore, receive the reality of Jesus’s finished work for you to walk in His authority. So take your stand by refusing the devil’s works which involve oppression. Making sure you refuse passivity which leads to surrendering territory that Jesus has already purchased for you to experience. The Holy Spirit’s final exhortation is to receive this word with your whole heart.

Do not let it go regardless of what tries to challenge it. So when circumstances attempt to contradict it, remain steadfast. When symptoms attempt to return, remain steadfast. When opposition rises, remain steadfast in your rebuking it. When satan raises schemes and strategies to confuse and accuse you, just remain steadfast. Do not allow any demonic challenge to make you abandon the reality of what Jesus has accomplished for you, but remain steadfast and immovable in the reality of His victory.

As you do, you will experience a freedom of the highest order which represents a freedom that places you in the glory zone that the Lord purposed for you to walk in. The Lord’s intention is not that you merely survive opposition but His purpose is that you rise above it, overcome it, and continually manifest His triumph. Therefore I encourage you, to receive this word with boldness, by acting upon it, to stand your ground, and walk in the liberty Jesus has already made available to you.

Father, in the name of Jesus, I receive the truth of Your Word with my whole heart. Holy Spirit, please give me the grace to recognise every work of the devil that I have tolerated, accepted, feared, or allowed to have a place in my life and awaken me to the reality of what Jesus has already accomplished on my behalf.

I refuse to give oppression, bondage, fear, or the works of the devil permission to rule or have dominion over me. So I choose on purpose to stand in the triumph of Jesus. Holy Spirit please make me strong and courageous by teaching me to stand my ground, by resisting every scheme and strategy of the enemy, and taking territory on behalf of Your Kingdom.

Deliver me from passivity and keep me forward-moving and pressing into everything You have prepared for me. Make me an overcomer, a barrier breaker, a burden remover, a yoke destroyer, and a persistent manifestation of Your power and glory. Holy Spirit, empower me to act upon every instruction You give me. Let the grace accompanying this word permeate my whole being and bring me into decisive action.

I choose on purpose to walk in the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus by refusing the dominion of the law of sin and death. I stand in the freedom Jesus purchased for me. Let every work of the devil diminish before me until it becomes nothing and let my life continually demonstrate that You rule in the affairs of men on the earth. I receive the freedom, victory, authority, and triumph Jesus have purposed for me.

I declare in Jesus name that the works of the devil have no right to rule me, dominate me, control me, or establish a place in my life. I know for a fact that Jesus was manifested in the flesh to destroy the works of the devil, and I stand in the victory He has already accomplished for me.

Therefore I refuse every form of oppression, bondage, and satanic interference. So I will not accept what Jesus came to earth to destroy. I will not give the enemy permission to trespass upon my life as I stand in the authority of Jesus and resist every work of darkness in His name from oppressing me. Amen.

I declare that I am strong and courageous. I am an overcomer, I am a barrier breaker, a world overcomer, a burden remover, and a yoke destroyer. The anointing upon my life causes me to triumph continually, and through my life the name and power of the Lord are manifested persistently. I reject passivity and move forward. I am pressing into what the Lord has prepared ahead of me.

I declare that every obstacle becomes an opportunity for me to overcome. Every opposition is defeated. Every scheme and strategy of satan raised against the Lord’s purpose for my life is rendered powerless. I walk in the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus, and I am free from the law of sin and death. So oppression of the devil, leave my presence now in Jesus name and never return because you have no place, no portion, and no authority to hurt or harm me.

I remain steadfast and immovable in the reality of Jesus’ finished work. I will not surrender my confidence because of circumstances, symptoms, opposition, or contradiction and I stand my ground and take territory for the Kingdom of God. Every work of the devil diminishes before me and becomes nothing because I now walk in the freedom Jesus purchased for me through His suffering on my behalf. I enter and remain in the glory zone the Lord has purposed for me by walking in victory, freedom, authority, and triumph as my life continually proves that Jesus Christ reigns in Jesus’ name. Amen.

As we prepare for Rosh Hashanah this weekend which is the Head of the year I encourage you to reflect on how you have walked throughout this past year and demonstrate your willingness to walk free of all oppression of the devil. I am sharing the first part of my reflections with the Holy Spirit gleaned from my communion time with Him.

Today the Holy Spirit wants you to look carefully at the things you must stand against and never allow to rule, dominate, or have dominion over your life affairs. There are realities of life that Jesus has already paid the price to free you from. So you have no business allowing these things to rob you, threaten you, control you, or keep you in bondage by giving them the right to master you.

The Holy Spirit is emphasising that there are things you must refuse to allow to overcome you because Jesus has already paid the price for your freedom from them. The issue is therefore not merely hoping that freedom will come someday, but walking in that freedom now. There is the finished work of Jesus that establishes the basis for your freedom, and you are being called to stand in what He has accomplished for you.

1John.3:8 gives us the foundation for this fact which reads these words: “He who sins is of the devil, for the devil has sinned from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that He might destroy the works of the devil.” These words make perfectly clear the difference between the purpose of Jesus for our lives and the purpose of satan against us.

Sin unfortunately was initiated into humanity through satan when Adam submitted to his lie in the Garden of Eden and ate from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil with Eve. From that time, sin became the dominant force working against humanity, with satan seeking through it to keep people bound, controlled, and subject to the consequences of his wicked and twisted purposes.

However the Apostle John wants us to understand this reality as a fact of life, and not merely as a promise we are hoping will eventually become a reality that the Son of God, Jesus was manifested on the earth to destroy the works of the devil. Jesus deliberately and purposefully came to deal with the works of satan.

Therefore, we must ask ourselves what are the works of the devil that Jesus went about destroying? The Holy Spirit’s instruction is very clear for us to know that these are the things we must not allow to rule us or have any place in our lives because Jesus has already destroyed them and rendered them impotent against us.

Jesus we know from scripture intentionally went after the works of satan and destroyed them. So how can we accept the idea that the One who destroyed the works of satan would then permit those same works to dominate His beloved ones? Yet unfortunately this is exactly what believers can sometimes foolishly believe and accept when satan attacks them with sickness, disease, bondage, oppression, or other forms of affliction.

The Holy Spirit is calling us to recognise the contradiction and know for a fact that Jesus destroyed the works of the devil, therefore we must not willingly surrender to those works and allow them to become masters over our lives. Peter gives us a clear picture of Jesus’ earthly ministry in action in Acts.10:38 which reads these words: “how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power, who went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with Him.”

It will do you good to look carefully at the purpose and intent of Jesus’ life which was to go about doing good, which resulted in Him healing all who were oppressed by the devil. This fact reveals something important about the source of oppression: because we see clearly that oppression is caused and initiated by the devil, and not the Lord. Therefore, there is a definite reason for us to refuse to accept any form of oppression in our lives, regardless of how it manifests itself.

Jesus demonstrated through His life that He possessed the power to destroy all the various forms of oppression established by the devil and to liberate humanity from their control. This fact remains His legacy, it remains His policy and it remains His immutable counsel which we as His followers, get to inherit here on earth. So we are not called merely to observe Jesus’ victory from a distance, but we are called to stand in the victory He has made available to and for us and to demonstrate His triumph in our own lives.

I was reminded of the day the reality of freedom from oppression became a reality in my personal life as this truth was realised in my life through this word. This was the first day I knew in reality that sickness had no power to dominate my life because when a severe headache occurred against me , the Holy Spirit prompted me to instruct it to leave my body because it had no right to oppress me and as I rebuked it in the name of Jesus it left me instantly. It was a very liberating experience to have severe pain which would last for hours unless I took pain killers leave me instantly when I spoke to it in Jesus name.

A few minutes later, as I was stunned by the new reality when the symptoms attempted to resurface, almost as though testing whether I believed that it had truly lost its place in my life. However the Holy Spirit again gave me another instruction to speak to it and declare that it had no right to trespass upon my body which settled the matter of me walking in divine healing and health.

From that point onward, the understanding became a practical way of me walking by refusing sickness and disease were the right to establish themselves in my body which is the Temple of the Holy Spirit, and all symptoms that have attempted to arise have been rebuked rather than accepted because I know my authority over sickness in the name of Jesus.

I have further come to the knowledge that my body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, and therefore oppression of my body is not passively welcomed or given permission to trespass in my life. The larger principle is that the Holy Spirit teaches us the followers of Jesus how to stand in the freedom Jesus purchased for us rather than simply accepting whatever opposition comes via the devil.

Father, in the name of Jesus, I receive the truth of Your Word with my whole heart. Holy Spirit, please give me the grace to recognise every work of the devil that I have tolerated, accepted, feared, or allowed to have a place in my life and awaken me to the reality of what Jesus has already accomplished on my behalf.

I refuse to give oppression, bondage, fear, or the works of the devil permission to rule or have dominion over me. So I choose on purpose to stand in the triumph of Jesus. Holy Spirit please make me strong and courageous by teaching me to stand my ground, by resisting every scheme and strategy of the enemy, and taking territory on behalf of Your Kingdom.

I declare in Jesus name that the works of the devil have no right to rule me, dominate me, control me, or establish a place in my life. I know for a fact that Jesus was manifested in the flesh to destroy the works of the devil, and I stand in the victory He has already accomplished for me.

Therefore I refuse every form of oppression, bondage, and satanic interference. So I will not accept what Jesus came to earth to destroy. I will not give the enemy permission to trespass upon my life as I stand in the authority of Jesus and resist every work of darkness in His name from oppressing me. Amen.

Today I conclude the revelation from my communion time with the Holy Spirit on our attitude to experiencing the Lord’s provision for our lives.

This is the place the Lord wants us to walk where we completely trust in His ability to do what He has said. There should be no anxiety in us concerning our provision. There should be no consuming worry about how our needs will be met. There should be no double-mindedness in our hearts between trusting the Lord and depending primarily upon human ability. Instead, there must be complete trust and dependence upon the Lord’s ability and His nature to provide for those whom He has chosen.

Jesus makes it clear that the things about which we become anxious are precisely the things the people of the world spend their lives seeking after and working for. Yet our Father already knows that we need these things while we are on the earth. So the key issue is therefore not whether these things are what we should strife for with all our heart because the Lord already knows they are necessary for us to have on the earth. The issue is what will occupy our hearts and determine our priority.

Jesus’ instruction is unmistakable: “But seek the kingdom of God, and all these things shall be added to you.” The Kingdom must become our primary pursuit. Jesus insists that we pursue the Kingdom with all our hearts, trusting that everything we genuinely need will be supplied once we obey His instructions. In fact, Jesus goes even further to say these words: “Do not fear, little flock, for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom.” It pleases the Father to give us the Kingdom.

The Kingdom Mandate contains all the fullness of the Lord’s provision. It has everything we could ever possibly need. Therefore, our priority must not be consumed by chasing the things that the world considers its ultimate security. We are to go diligently after the Kingdom by wholeheartedly pursuing the Lord. We are to trust His nature by depending upon His ability to do what He has spoken. We are to allow the Holy Spirit to lead us into the truth of the Lord’s provision rather than allowing fear, doubt, anxiety, and unbelief to dictate our priorities.

The truths presented here are intended to take charge of our hearts and settle us into the place of peace and rest concerning our provision. We are called to repent for allowing doubt to push us away from truth and into a lie—the lie that the Lord does not care about our provision and that providing for ourselves must become our highest priority. When fear convinces us that everything depends upon our own ability, we can become so occupied with securing our lives that we neglect the Kingdom.

The Holy Spirit is calling us out of that place and the answer is not merely to tell ourselves not to worry because we need the grace of the Holy Spirit to empower us to see as Jesus wants us to see. We need to operate in the grace to recover ourselves from the stupor of anxiety and unbelief. Then we need the grace to consider provision correctly from Jesus’ perspective. We need grace to recognise again what our true priority is and embrace the grace to pursue the Kingdom with all of our hearts.

The Holy Spirit wants us to recover the correct order of our lives. So instead of making provision our master, we must make the Kingdom our pursuit. Rather than allow anxiety to govern our decisions, we must on purpose trust our Father’s reputation. So instead of allowing human expertise to become our ultimate authority, we should make listening to the Holy Spirit, who possesses all wisdom and truth our final authority.

We must stop depending primarily upon what man can do for us, by depending upon the Lord who created you, redeemed you, called you, and knows exactly what you need. As you return to this perspective, we will experience everything that has already been apportioned to you by the Lord. The Holy Spirit wants to guide us into all truth and free us from the lie that has kept us anxious, fearful, double-minded, and overly occupied with earthly provision.

The Lord has ordained a place for His people which is a place of victory and triumph in Jesus’ name. Therefore, the call for us is to trust the Lord completely, by pursuing His Kingdom wholeheartedly, and allow His Spirit to lead us into the fullness of what He has already made available for us.

The central message from this revelation is a call from the Holy Spirit for us to examine the basis of our trust by taking a good look at who we believe, whose counsel we allow to direct our lives, and whose word we permit in our hearts to determine our future. The question is not whether human experts have knowledge or whether their advice can be useful, but whether we have placed their words above the voice of the One who possesses all wisdom and all truth.

The Holy Spirit is asking us why we would readily trust a human expert because he has studied a subject and follow his instructions to the letter, while questioning, scrutinising, or hesitating over the instructions of the Holy Spirit. The Lord wants us to recognise what determines whom we trust, rely upon, and depend upon concerning our lives.

Father, in the name of Jesus, I repent for every place where I have allowed doubt, fear, anxiety, and unbelief to cause me to question Your care for me and Your ability to provide for me. Holy Spirit, please empower me to see as Jesus wants me to see and deliver me from every lie that has made me believe that my provision must become my highest priority. Recover my heart from every form of anxiety and double-mindedness.

Teach me to trust You completely and how to rely upon Your wisdom, Your truth, Your nature, and Your ability. Help me to recognise my value to You so I can live from the confidence that if You care for the ravens, You will certainly care for me. I choose to seek the Kingdom of God with all my heart and flatly refuse to allow worry about food, drink, provision, or tomorrow to control my heart.

I believe that my Father knows what I need, and I trust His good pleasure to give me the Kingdom. Holy Spirit, please guide me into all truth by freeing me from every lie. Then faithfully lead me into the place You have ordained for me, to enable me to experience everything You have already apportioned to me to have on earth in Jesus’ name. Amen.

I declare that I will trust the Lord completely and absolutely and I will not allow anxiety concerning provision to overthrow my confidence in the Lord’s faithfulness. I know that I am valuable to my Father, and I know that He cares for me, watches over me, and provides for me. I refuse to make earthly provision my highest pursuit but I seek the Kingdom of God with all my heart, and I trust that everything I need shall be added to me.

I will not be double-minded, unstable, fearful, or driven by anxiety. My confidence is in the Lord and in His unchanging Word. The Holy Spirit always leads me into all truth and delivers me from every lie. I receive grace to see from Jesus’ perspective, to trust in the Lord’s nature, and to depend upon His ability. I recover my Kingdom priority, by walking in divine provision, and I experience everything that has already been apportioned to me by the Lord.

I declare that I am not abandoned, I am not forgotten and I am not without supply. My Father knows what I need, and it is His good pleasure to give me the Kingdom. Therefore, I walk in trust, I walk in peace, walk in provision, and I walk in total victory and triumph in Jesus’ name. Amen!

I am sharing Part One of my communion time with the Holy Spirit concerning the foundation of our trust.

The Holy Spirit spoke to me in my communion time about examining the foundation of our trust by asking ourselves these questions, Who do you trust? Whose word do you rely upon? Whose counsel is determining the direction of your life and the future you are pursuing? Why do we readily trust the word of a human expert simply because that person has studied a particular subject and claims to know everything about it, so that we obey his instructions carefully and completely, while we question the instructions of the Holy Spirit, who possesses all wisdom and truth?

This is a matter of us recognising the One whose knowledge is perfect and whose counsel is unfailing. So the Holy Spirit wants us to look carefully at what makes us determine whom we will trust, rely upon, and depend upon concerning our lives. He wants us to examine whose counsel we permit to determine our future actions. Jesus taught us to consider certain realities that are constant on the earth and from those realities determine the position we will take concerning our trust in the Lord.

In Luke.12:24 Jesus gives us a powerful lesson on provision with these words: “Consider the ravens, for they neither sow nor reap, which have neither storehouse nor barn; and God feeds them. Of how much more value are you than the birds?” When Jesus says, “Consider the ravens.” He is asking us to stop our thought process, observe, think carefully, and recognise the principle which is at work in the Lord’s relationship with His creation.

Firstly the ravens do not have the privilege of sowing and reaping in the way human beings do. Therefore, they cannot deliberately produce and secure their own food supply. They are also limited because they cannot build storehouses or barns in which they can preserve excess produce from a bumper harvest and draw from those reserves when difficult times come. Yet, despite all these limitations, the Lord feeds them.

The ravens cannot plan ahead in the manner human beings can because they cannot establish systems of provision for tomorrow. They cannot accumulate resources against future uncertainty. Nevertheless, the Lord takes responsibility for sustaining them. Jesus then brings the lesson directly to us with a question we must answer: “Of how much more value are you than the birds?” This raises another important question of: How do you value yourself?

Your understanding of your value before the Lord will influence how much you are able to receive from Him rather than depending upon what human beings can do for you. You are of much greater value in the eyes of the Lord than you understand and appreciate. Jesus we know did not merely speak about human value; He demonstrated it through His sacrifice for us. He gave up His position in glory, came to the earth, and died for our sins and He became our atonement so that we could once again reign in life.

Jesus did not do this for the ravens. However, because He created the ravens and gave them life, He ensures that they are provided for in their lifetime. If the Lord cares enough to provide for creatures that cannot sow, reap, build barns, or plan for tomorrow, how much more will He care for human beings whom He created, redeemed, and has called to fulfil His purposes on the earth? This message emphasises that this fact is not merely a theological idea, but it is a reality that can be observed practically.

In the area where I live I have watched my neighbours come out daily at fixed times to put food out for ravens as a duty, but I know that those same people would not go out every day to provide food for another human being. This reality becomes a living demonstration of the principle Jesus taught that the Lord provides for His creation. So certainly, what is of value to the Lord, human beings He will provide for.

Therefore because the Lord needs human beings on the earth to do His will and execute His plan, He will certainly ensure that those whom He has chosen are adequately provided for and looked after comfortably. We must never allow our need for provision to destroy our trust in the Lords ability to supply all our needs. Jesus repeatedly taught His disciples not to worry about their provision of food. Why you ask? Because He knew what worrying about provision would do to interfere with their trust in Him as their Source and Supply.

Jesus never wanted His disciples to have that conflict of interest in their hearts because anxiety concerning provision could leave them double-minded and unstable in heart, thus making them unable to receive the benefits available to them through their relationship with Him. The Lord always demands our complete and absolute trust in His ability to do what He has said because His Word is forever settled and dependable Psalm.89:34: “My covenant will I not break nor alter the word that comes out of My mouth.”

The Lord is not unreliable, and He does not make promises and then change His mind. His covenant remains His covenant, and His Word remains His Word. Therefore, our confidence cannot ultimately rest in the stability of human systems, human expertise, human resources, or circumstances. Our confidence must rest in the nature and ability of the Lord Himself who can do all things.

Jesus then goes on to give us the conclusion we are supposed to reach after considering the ravens. In Luke.12:29-32 He says these words: “And do not seek what you should eat or what you should drink, nor have an anxious mind. 30 For all these things the nations of the world seek after, and your Father knows that you need these things. 31 But seek the kingdom of God, and all these things shall be added to you. 32 “Do not fear, little flock, for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom.

I declare that I will trust the Lord completely and absolutely and I will not allow anxiety concerning provision to overthrow my confidence in the Lord’s faithfulness. I know that I am valuable to my Father, and I know that He cares for me, watches over me, and provides for me. I refuse to make earthly provision my highest pursuit but I seek the Kingdom of God with all my heart, and I trust that everything I need shall be added to me.

I will not be double-minded, unstable, fearful, or driven by anxiety. My confidence is in the Lord and in His unchanging Word. The Holy Spirit always leads me into all truth and delivers me from every lie. I receive grace to see from Jesus’ perspective, to trust in the Lord’s nature, and to depend upon His ability. I recover my Kingdom priority, by walking in divine provision, and I experience everything that has already been apportioned to me by the Lord in Jesus name. Amen.

During my communion time with the Holy Spirit, the Lord brought a fresh broader understanding concerning the true nature and purpose of revelation knowledge. Over many years of walking with the Holy Spirit, it has become clearly evident to me that revelation is indispensable for one to fulfil the Lord’s plan for our lives.

Success in the Kingdom is not determined by our human intelligence, reasoning, or personal insight, but by us receiving and walking in the thoughts, purposes, and intentions of the Lord revealed by the Holy Spirit. Revelation is what enables us to see life from the Lord’s perspective rather than our own, which gives us the divine advantage in every situation. The Holy Spirit directed my attention to Matthew 16:17–19, where Jesus commended Peter after he had confessed that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of the living God.

Jesus declared that Peter’s understanding had not come through flesh and blood, but through a revelation from the Father in heaven. Because Peter received this divine revelation, Jesus entrusted him with a remarkable understanding of Kingdom authority pointing to the fact that the Church would be built upon this revealed truth, and the gates of Hades would not prevail against it, and Peter would receive the keys of the Kingdom, with the authority to bind and loose on earth according to heaven’s dictates revealed.

This passage demonstrates the fact that revelation knowledge is not just merely information, but it is the gateway into divine authority, triumph, and partnership with the Lord to establish His Kingdom on earth. Receiving the Lord’s revelation elevates us the followers of Jesus into a place where heaven’s purposes can be established on earth in our lives.

I was then led to reflect on a personal experience, when after receiving the first genuine revelation from the Holy Spirit and witnessing its transforming results, there arose an ongoing hunger in me to continually seek and pursue greater revelation. It became clearly evident to me that without revelation, followers of Jesus often struggle, then start falling short of the Lord’s glory, as they experience defeat, and encounter unnecessary shame as their results.

Constant revelation consistently brings us triumph because it always aligns us the followers of Jesus with the Lord’s perfect wisdom for every situation in life. The Holy Spirit then went on to broaden this understanding by revealing that revelation is the discovery by man of what the Lord already knows. It is the communication of heaven’s intelligence into the heart of a follower of Jesus which empowers us to triumph over life’s circumstances.

Since the Lord cannot fail, be defeated, hindered, or caught off guard, operating from His revealed knowledge enables us His followers to walk in His certainty about events and situations rather than viewing things from our human limitation. Revelation provides us access to the Lord’s hear perspective, which allows us Jesus’s followers to walk in divine wisdom rather than natural reasoning.

To enable us to unlock heavenly realities so they are manifested in our lives on earth. Revelation knowledge enables us to exercise Kingdom authority over circumstances to bring earthly situations into alignment with the Lord’s will. We are empowered to stop and overturn all evil operations of the enemy through heavenly insight which causes us to walk in triumph where human reasoning would predict defeat in our lives. The Holy Spirit emphasised that the authority Jesus entrusted to Peter flowed directly from the revelation he received from the Father.

Because Peter discovered what the Father had revealed, he was positioned to exercise Kingdom authority on earth, and the gates of Hades could not prevail against what had been revealed by the Lord to Peter. The Holy Spirit further explained that revelation is a discovery of something unknown. So just as every discovery introduces mankind to realities previously unknown, revelation introduces us the followers of Jesus to truths, solutions, strategies, and dimensions of Jesus’s Kingdom that were hidden until He chose to unveil them to us.

Every revelation opens a completely new sphere of possibility in our lives. It becomes an open door into light, which takes us the followers of Jesus from limitation into divine greatness because it originates with the Lord Himself. Through revelation, we begin experiencing realities that were previously inaccessible to us. This explains why the Apostle Paul continually prayed for us the followers of Jesus to receive the Spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of God (as seen in his prayers for the Ephesians and Colossians).

Paul understood that revelation is foundational for us succeeding in the Lord’s purposes and walking in the fullness of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit encourages us as followers of Jesus to continually open our hearts to fresh discoveries from the Lord because every revelation we receive positions us Jesus’s people for victory, wisdom, supernatural success, and triumph, even in circumstances that appear impossible.

Paul’s own life illustrates this principle in detail because he continually received revelation from the Lord, so he could face severe adversity with unwavering confidence, declaring that no circumstance could move him from what the Lord had revealed to him. He remained convinced that events would ultimately unfold according to the Lord’s revealed purpose and that he would “in nothing be ashamed.”

Time after time, situations aligned with what the Lord had revealed to him rather than what negative circumstances suggested. The Holy Spirit is calling for every follower of Jesus to seek ongoing revelation, by allowing divine discoveries to replace our uncertainty with confidence, our complexities with clarity, our weakness with divine strength, and impossible situations with supernatural triumph.

As we the followers of Jesus receive and walk in what the Lord reveals, we enter the place prepared for us by the Father which encompasses realities beyond human comprehension, fulfilling the promise that “eye has not seen, nor ear heard, nor has it entered into the heart of man the things which God has prepared for those who love Him,” yet these things are revealed by the Holy Spirit for the Lord’s people.

As followers of Jesus we are encouraged to expect continual new discoveries from the Holy Spirit, knowing that as we obey the revealed truth, situations will turn in our favour, divine wisdom will prevail over human reasoning, and we will walk in the victories and triumphs ordained by the Lord for our lives.

In the name of Jesus, I declare that your heart is open to receive fresh revelation from the Holy Spirit. May the Spirit of wisdom and revelation rest upon you in increasing measure, causing you to discover the thoughts, strategies, and purposes of the Father for every area of your life. I declare that every veil of confusion, daily limitation, and human reasoning is removed from your life, and that divine insight becomes your advantage.

May hidden treasures of wisdom be revealed, so that impossible situations yield to heavenly solutions, and every gate of opposition fails to prevail against the revelation the Lord entrusts to you. As you walk in what the Holy Spirit reveals, may you move from uncertainty into confidence, from complexity into clarity, and from defeat into abiding triumph.

May your life become a testimony of the Lord’s wisdom, power, and faithfulness, as you walk in the glorious realities that He has prepared for those who love Him in Jesus’ mighty name, Amen.
