In my communion time this morning with the Holy Spirit He spoke to me about the volume of the word that has been deposited within us determines the level of glory that we can expect to see exhibited in our daily lives. Now you know from my posts that whenever the Holy Spirit emphasizes a word to me it is clear that my previous understanding of that word is limited and I am being invited to partake of a fresh insight into how that word can change my life’s consequences and position me for much greater glory.

So I checked the word volume in the dictionary to see what it said. I found that the word speaks of :a considerable quantity b: the amount of a substance occupying a particular volume. : the amount of space occupied. I then brought this knowledge to the table and allowed the Holy Spirit to relate it to my personal life and wellbeing.

So here we go on what the Holy Spirit then revealed to me looking first at the amount of space occupied. He asked me how much of my life has been swallowed up by the life of Christ? Have all the things of the flesh been dissolved to such a degree that only Christ’s life is visible because it has swallowed up all death in my life?

Now I realized years ago that when the Holy Spirit asks a question it is not because He does not know the answer but it is an opportunity for us to learn from Him where we really are in terms of our relationship with the Lord. Well I know that I give time to studying the word and meditating it daily, endeavouring to keep it in my heart and mouth.

Now it is one thing to study the word and meditate on it but the Holy Spirit was speaking about how much of the word that is the word of the Spirit has had the opportunity to swallow up every natural understanding and is residing within me. How much of the Holy Spirit and His vastness has full occupation in the space of my heart.

Now let me give some scriptural context here in John.3:34 we read these words spoken by John the Baptist who spent a lifetime in the wilderness preparing his heart to speak for the Lord : For He whom God has sent speaks the words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure. 35 The Father loves the Son, and has given all things into His hand. 

In this scripture John is pointing out how much volume of the word occupies the full space of Jesus’s heart because that word is manifested with a limitless measure of the Holy Spirit. In other words every word of God in Jesus’s Heart is fully backed by the Holy Spirit hence Jesus said in John.6:63 It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life. 

Now having given the biblical context which the Holy Spirit will always employ because He is the Spirit of Truth. John.16:13. We can move on and partake of this heavenly revelation the Holy Spirit is opening my eyes to its reality which brings life. Let me point out clearly that the Holy Spirit was not saying that my study time and meditation of the word was fruitless and worth nothing. He is pointing to the greater understanding of how Jesus walked in the Spirit that enabled Him to manifest the greater glory of the Lord on the earth.

Now there are various levels of word that fill the space in our hearts depending on the level of the Holy Spirit’s influence we allow when we hear and receive the word He shares. Mark.4:24 & 25. The point He was making to me was how to increase the level of the Spirit on the word in my heart and how to allow every fleshly thought remaining to be dissolved and swallowed up by His resurrection life so only the Holy Spirit is visible when my mouth speaks. Acts.7:55 & 56. 

Now this process started many years ago when I was anointed and would continually pray asking the Lord to kill me and make me more like Jesus rather than ask for material things. I would always ask for more of the Holy Spirit and to be filled with all of His fullness. It always struck a holy chord in my heart whenever I read they were filled or full of the Holy Spirit. There are degrees of glory which we are yet to partake of which Jesus has reserved for us to experience here on earth.

So as I share these wonderful truths with you that surround my communion times with the Holy Spirit it is to awaken you to the non ending bounty of glory the Lord has prepared for us to live out daily on earth to glorify His wonderful name. Remember anyone can say Jesus’s name but not all can manifest the power of His name. When Peter said such as I have I give you in the name of Jesus rise up and walk in Acts.3:6 & 7. Peter made it clear such as I have. Peter had no doubts what he possessed in the Holy Spirit and knew that word would come to pass.

This is the place the Holy Spirit is preparing our hearts to walk in so we can truly exhibit who Jesus really is through signs, wonders and notable miracles to glorify His name.

I will conclude this post now because there’s so much more in what the Holy Spirit spoke but we must leave that till another time. However allow the words you have heard today spark a new flame within you for a greater measure of the outpouring of the Holy Spirit to become a reality in your lives.

Then as Noah in Genesis.6:8 found grace to build the Ark so you will find grace to build the place for the Holy Spirit to have complete control over your heart so that the full expression of Jesus will be manifested through your life.

In my communion time with the Holy Spirit this morning He reminded me to stir up our hearts again to action in how we choose to think about ourselves after facing much assault, enemy tactics and accusations which are requiring you to lay down. Seeking to force you to give up the fight saying this year is no different as things haven’t improved yet. So just settle in and expect the usual result no change so just cave in to the flesh offers of a quick way out.

Well that is a lie from the pit of hell and the Lord wants you to adjust your shoulders back up and tell those lying thoughts where to go. Then boldly lay claim to the inheritance God has determined for you to experience this year starting now in Jesus name.

So get out your God centred thoughts and let these words of grace propel you into action again to lay hold of the promise for real this year so that the name of Jesus will be magnified in your life in this season in Jesus name. Amen.

The Holy Spirit asks you today what are the thoughts you have concerning yourself that motivate you to action? Put them aside and take the Lord’s thoughts for you because the Lord knows the thoughts He thinks towards you’ thoughts of good, peace not of evil, designed to give you a future, a hope and an expected end of glory. Jeremiah.29:11.

Now when the Lord says He knows His thoughts He means that He has considered everything in both the spiritual world and the physical world. Then created a way that will bring you out victorious and triumphant bearing much fruit. So for that reason you can count on it to work out regardless of any opposition and assault on it.Romans.8:28.

Settle this matter once and for all the Holy Spirit wants you to know that your thoughts are based on the present facts before you and the seeming favorable options that look or seem right that will bring you solutions in the now. Remember these thoughts are all superficial and subject to change. They have not considered the spiritual ramifications of such decisions and where those will lead to.Isaiah.55:8 & 9.

Your thoughts have only considered the natural benefits that will be gained from the present offers before you. The fact that they appear to be favorable, and look like the best option presently, however the end of them will be disastrous.

He reminded me of the situation of Israel in Babylon when at the time they should be leaving there after 70 years to go back and build Israel. They are searching vigorously for material to build houses in Persia. Although they were only meeting with blocks and obstacles with much loss of money and energy. Haggai.1.

They continued pursuing this phantom as they watched their resources going down the drain with no favor or help. Then the Lord confronts them through the Prophet Haggai to look at the bad situation and consider carefully which is the best way forward for them, their thoughts or God’s.

Then by using the prophesying of Haggai, Zechariah and Malachi they choose to change thoughts and perspective. They make the choice to go with God’s thoughts and instantly with that change of thoughts their results change.

In fact God even tells them to mark the date of the difference in results that begin to happen to prove the reality that change has happened The result is no more waste of money, time or physical energy. Haggai.2:15-18.

Well today the Holy Spirit wants you to put aside your grand plans and come back to building His plan for your life. Then watch how things shift and begin to take shape as doors of opportunity open up because you chose the path of God’s thoughts for you versus yours.

Then become a partaker of the miraculous process of arriving at a safe destination in the fullness of the Lord’s provision and supply fully saturated with peace and joy. Your life will be free from strife, shame and disgrace with plenty becoming your way of life and your expected end of glory and goodness in the Lord.

Remember that it is only a little adjustment of your thought process from yours to God’s that opens you up to a world of variety and abundance of the realm of the Holy Spirit. That change cannot be stopped or hampered or even be detected by your enemy which will propel you forward in triumph regardless of the odds against you in Jesus name.

I beseech you to lay aside your thoughts and plans. Then trust the Lord’s as you receive these words and the grace flowing through them. Then watch and see the all round difference in your life events and circumstances in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Go ahead and have a God filled and centred day with all the rich benefits in your life in Jesus Name. Amen

The Holy Spirit this morning in our communion time shared with me what I should have the greatest delight in. “The Character of God and pressing into partaking of that part of His Divine Nature.”

“Jesus truly wants us to experience all He has and owns on the earth and we must pursue it with all our hearts.”John.10:10.

In Proverbs:18.10 it says The character of God is a tower of strength, for the lovers of God delight to run into His heart and be exalted on high.

I was encouraged by the Holy Spirit to draw on the tower of strength God is. His Heart rather than mine which enables me to be productive and fruitful. I encourage you to do the same.

Through my past relationship with the Holy Spirit I was already conscious of the fidelity of God’s immutable character and heart. I have drawn upon that strength for my life on many occasions but today I gained further insight on how to walk continually in the tower of strength. The character and heart of God is for us to draw upon daily.

Now the Holy Spirit pointed out that only lovers of Jesus delight to run, not just walk towards Him. They go after Him completely and wholeheartedly which points to giving Him undivided time, constant pursuit and attention to how and where He is leading.

In other words, take specific planned time to spend seeking His face, putting aside all distractions and giving Him priority time as Jesus did in Luke:5.16  However, He made a practice of withdrawing to remote places in order to pray.

Jesus chose remote places so He could not be disturbed as He ran into the Fathers heart which would be His place of safety and tower of strength. This place of undivided concentration meant the only result or outcome would be exaltation which is exactly where Jesus walked daily in the events of His life being the extension of the Hand of God with signs, wonders and notable miracles.

The Holy Spirit said that as we seek Him that way it will no longer be our natural weak human character and heart that will be seen. Through this process His character and heart will be made manifest through our lives each day we run to Him and permit Him to use our bodies, temples for His glory. As Jesus pointed out these signs shall follow them that believe Him and follow His path. Mark.16:17 & 18.

My heart leaped for joy at this new prospect of God’s character heart being manifested in and through me and working from me. May this become your reality also in Jesus name. Amen. I am humbled at the unique honour of being invited to partake of His Divine Nature/Heart and being an expression of it. 2 Peter.1:4. I was also reminded of Jesus’ words to the disciples that except a man denies himself daily and takes up his cross he cannot be My disciple.

This fresh revelation the Holy Spirit pointed out to me is to become a daily happening because our hearts can so easily be distracted by the fame and honour this brings us. Which then causes us to fall into the snare of pride and that evil way which brings death. There is nothing that compares to walking in the character and heart of God who can then shine brightly through us and change the hearts of men.

I know that walking in the gifts of the Spirit are awesome but have experienced how the fullness of the Gift Giver the Holy Spirit working any area of His possession through us is far greater because there are no limitations.

Just look at the Apostle Paul’s prayers in Ephesians.3:19 that we should be filled with all the fullness of God. Then look at the ensuing result that God does exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think according to His Power at work in us.This is because it is Him thinking and doing in us.That is His ability versus ours. I beseech you today to make this word of running after His Character your daily pursuit and find the grace bestowed in these words to be what God wants you to be for His glory.

He is looking for His Kingdom of glory to be manifested through us completely and expanded to cover the whole earth as the waters cover the sea. So gird yourself up and pursue with diligence to walk in the Character and heart of God which is your strong tower and place of rest. Have a triumphant day loaded with the benefits of the Most High in Jesus Name. Amen.

The Holy Spirit in my communion time with Him today reminded me of the importance of us recognizing cycles or patterns in our life experience that seem to happen consistently when we reach a particular point in our journey of faith.

This is clearly evident as we are trusting the Lord to bring us through to a miraculous conclusion. He spoke of how to develop a resistance to the same old responses we are accustomed to employing which cost us our position of triumph.Ephesians.6:12-14.

The Holy Spirit spoke of our need to mature in our responses and rise above these tactics. Then with this new stance give the enemy a blow which cannot be stopped as we march in triumphantly regardless of the stiff opposition.

So I am sharing these words from the Holy Spirit to impart grace to you at this time to go beyond the plain and into the promised inheritance the Lord has available to you today. The Holy Spirit wants you to come out triumphant with shouts of joy and the promise in your hands. So please stop letting this trap rob you of any future blessing ever again in Jesus name. Amen.

The Holy Spirit my best friend, Companion and Helper again shared with me some very good news. He said fear and intimidation are the trap that holds us back. So why do we continue to allow it to make us take contrary action?

I repented instantly and made quick adjustments because I know when the Holy Spirit speaks and reveals my heart stance in a situation it is true no matter what I think at the time. If something is a trap why do we constantly fall for it and allow it to determine the course we take.

Fear always seems very real and formidable from the natural perspective because you can see its natural ability and feel it breathing down your life looking for your cooperation and support. However the Holy Spirit as the ever Present Comforter said if you rebuke it, it will evaporate quickly because its purpose is to scare and intimidate you to make an impulsive decision to react prematurely on the basis that things will not change.

The Holy Spirit then went on to remind me of the scripture in 2 Corinthians:4.18 which reads: while we do not look at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen. For the things which are seen are temporary, but the things which are not seen are eternal. Why the Holy Spirit said, Do we keep looking at what is seen?

Having seen the truth in this scripture that we are not to base anything in life on what our eyes have seen, but on what God has revealed because that is the eternal view point and eternal truth will always change natural facts.

The fact is that each day we are bombarded with new situations that emerge to arouse fear so we need to be vigilant. 1 Peter.5:8 & 9. He pointed out that we should always base things from the eternal perspective not the natural because natural things change quickly because they are temporary and subject to change.

In other words we are never to build on what is unreliable and is subject to failure but on what God says because that is eternal. John.6:63.Regardless of how real fear and intimidation appear, don’t respond to them as He pointed out that’s the heart posture the Apostle Paul arrived at in his walk with the Lord when he said ‘none of these things move me’. I refuse to respond to natural events no matter how they appear and the threat they pose to be to my existence. I will not decide on their basis. Acts.20:24.

That is how the Apostle Paul could be relaxed in a storm where in 14 days of seeing no sun or moon but only darkness and men saying all hope of being saved is lost. So stop trying to give us hope. It’s over! However the Apostle Paul arose in those contrary conditions and said everything will be alright because an angel of the Lord came to me and spoke to me saying that all of us will be saved.

We will end up safely on an Island and only the ship will be lost but no life will be lost. At that very moment the Apostle Paul encouraged us to eat because that food will be needed for us to swim to shore. Then in the midst of that storm and chaos Paul went on to break bread and eat. They all followed suit because of His confidence that imparted grace and it happened just as Paul had said.

The Holy Spirit wanted me to understand and see clearly that the fear in that incident was real and that the storm was true and they truly experienced the ship being tossed up and down on those seas with no light for 14 days. The Holy Spirit said that most times when we read these truths we sometimes don’t look at the severity of that situation and appreciate what it really was like for those in that ship.

We do not fully grasp the level of fear that was aroused in them that moved them to declare we will not come out of this alive as there seems to be no end to this relentless pounding of wind and waves battering us and driving this ship.Acts.27.

The truth is that God had already provided a way out and Paul was already talking with the Lord in that situation and receiving an answer in all that turmoil and trauma that came to pass and changed that pounding and brought back calm and stillness.

Well if that was the case then so today the Holy Spirit who was with Paul then and gave him the way out is here with you today and will help you navigate out of any situation of fear and intimidation that threatens to take you out. Then He will bring you safely to your destined end in God of triumph and victory loaded with the miraculous power of the Holy Spirit.

So today it’s time to change your minds, then believe and receive God’s word of grace to you. Boldly throw out fear and intimidation and look to the eternal word of the Lord to be your sight and vision going forward for it alone is eternal. It will serve to bring you to a place of glory and a miraculous story of triumph in Jesus’ name that will bring an expansion to Jesus’ Kingdom here on earth to glorify His name. Amen.

It is very easy for us to say we are serving God faithfully each day, but the reality of our walk thank God is brought to the test when the Holy Spirit asks a pertinent question that exposes where exactly our hearts are.

Well the Holy Spirit asks you today whose advice truly are you filling your heart with? Your Parents, your Pastor, your Husband, your Boss, your Family, or your opinions? Or is it a consensus of these views that determine the way you live? Well today in my communion time with the Holy Spirit He asked me to take stock of what advice our hearts are filled with because that will determine the path we choose to follow in life.

Whose advice are we taking to make our daily decisions ? How much value are we placing on that advice that compels us to act on it as this is vital to our forward movement. Whose thoughts are you musing on and chewing on daily in your heart that make you do their will. 

Thank you Jesus because the Holy Spirit spoke to me that we are meditating far too much on what happens physically rather than on what God said. So we are ending up being filled with negative thoughts rather than God’s opinion of us. 2 Corinthians.5:7.

In real terms what does it really matter what people say or speak about us? What bearing does that have on us in actuality? If Jesus, the Holy Spirit pointed out, had listened to the voices of People, His family or Jewish leaders He would never have fulfilled the plan of God for His life as their advice was always contrary to God’s and to favour their cause not Gods.

The Holy Spirit pointed out that we need to make more time to fill our hearts with His words to us and through that process starve our hearts of human opinions and thoughts.Isaiah.55:6-11. This reality made it clear I needed to up my confessions of His words to me to override and overtake the negative words and constant negative vibes that are seeking to gain my attention. Looking for my added commentary to cause me more harm if I touch them.

The Holy Spirit said that I need to keep a watch on what things I comment on as that is where we make foolish commitments. Which then ruins our path through idle words that have no basis. Matthew.12:36. He reminded me that Jesus on several occasions refused to answer questions that were seeking to trap Him to respond which would give them the access to hurt Him.

Jesus just flatly refused to bite in with a comment and we need to do the same. Then simply just make sure we are filling our hearts with what He the Father says to us and walk in that light which always brings victory.

We need to on purpose stop relying on others’ opinions and thoughts about us and trust the voice of the Holy Spirit to us as the final word. John.16:12-14. You know I am so very thankful to the Holy Spirit for continuing to bring truth daily which teaches how to walk in the results of freedom and liberty each and every day. My prayer for you is that you will make yourself available to receive this much needed aid from the Lord each day of your life.

This is an absolute necessity you cannot afford to forgo.  So today press in and and take time to confess and fill your mind with Jesus’ words to and for you. Then let your heart be saturated with life through the grace flowing from His words to you. Then watch the stark difference you will experience after doing this and then purpose to make this your daily routine which you cannot afford tomiss in Jesus Name. Amen.

Be ready to step out on the leading of the Holy Spirit to bring deliverance and freedom through signs, wonders and miracles to the needy and oppressed people today as you manifest the power of the Most High in your sphere in Jesus name. Amen.

How has your life panned out recently? Are you feeling tired of trying to build something for your life and family, continually wondering why your efforts are not producing results? Well this morning the Holy Spirit gave me a word for you, that if you follow, it will bring you into a prepared and built place where everything you need for life and Godliness is already there and all you need to do is come and sit at the table and eat. 2 Peter.1:2-4.

The Holy Spirit pointed out the word in  Proverbs:9.1-6 where we are told that wisdom has already built a Palace with everything we could possibly ever need for life. In the palace of wisdom nothing is missing that we could possibly need. The Holy Spirit said I should consider by just looking at the earth itself. Just take note of how everything God created works systematically to give us everything we need as long as we cooperate with its process and we can be sure it will turn out for our benefit.

Well the Holy Spirit reiterated to me that every word in Proverbs:9.1-6 we can experience in the now if we believe and receive it. This is because the reality of its manifestation has already been provided for us and every sacrifice necessary to make it available Jesus has accomplished on our behalf. For this reason it is therefore our responsibility to come to the table prepared for us just as Mephibosheth was invited to David’s table coming from Lodebar where there was lack and insufficiency to a place that had every provision available. 2 Samuel.9:7-13.

His life changed dramatically because David invited him to the table and he was now sitting in a place where everything was available, not because he was great but because he had been invited to the place where everything was.2 Samuel.9:1-13

Well the Holy Spirit wants you to come to the table the Lord prepared for you with all the things that pertain to your life and Godliness readily available to partake of. Rather than you trying to build something from your place of limitation. The Holy Spirit reminded me that God the Father wants us to enter His rest not His work.Hebrews.4:1-13.

Jesus has already completed the works on our behalf, paid the price with His blood and invites us to enter His rest where all things are provided. We need to remember to work and walk in His rest and not labour and be heavy laden but come to Him and find rest.Matthew.11:28 & 29.

Remember Jesus said come unto me all who are weary and heavy laden and I will give you rest, not more labour and toil. Jesus came to free us from doing it on our own and gave us the opportunity to walk with Him in all He has achieved on our behalf. So today stop trying to build and start coming to the table of the Master Builder and experience the life and blessing He has made available to you. John.10:10.

Seek Him and not things and you will have much more than you need. So much more to give to others. It is time to surrender to God’s plan and lay down your plans that keep failing and costing you much pain and sorrow. God’s plan works because He has what He says just as King David had the provision, so Mephibosheth just had to come to the table and enjoy the benefit of what was present and available.

What if Mephibosheth hadn’t come to the table he was invited to, though the food was there and available, Mephibosheth could not have partaken of it. Only because he did not feel worthy to attend the banquet he was invited to and therefore would have remained in the place of lack despite the invitation.

That is what the Holy Spirit says we do when we don’t come to Him and the God Table prepared and ready. Psalm.23:5. We go around wondering why things did not work when all we needed to do was come and sit at the feet of Jesus and partake of the feast available.

Don’t make that mistake you have been invited to the table of the Lord where there is more than enough for everyone with all sufficiency, over and above. Isaiah.25:6-8

May today be the day you resolve in your heart to come and partake fully of all the Lord has prepared for you. Then continually come daily to the table of provision so that your life will be saturated with all God’s abundance in Jesus Name. Amen.

Take some time today and meditate on these scriptures to remind and reactivate your heart to walk in grace supplying the reality of the Lord’s provision available to you.

The Holy Spirit pointed out to me this morning in our communion time that regardless of the gift of God we possess and the calling we have in God. The most important weapon we possess is our ability to cry out to Him. This is the most priceless possession we have. Luke.10:20.

The Holy Spirit went on to expatiate and pointed out to me the biblical reality that though David was gifted with ability, it was his ability to cry out to God that saved him so many times and that was the reason God called him a man after My heart. He always faithfully inquired of the Lord.

Once the Holy Spirit begins opening a revelation it becomes clearly evident that many others have followed in that pattern. So He also mentioned Samson in Judges.15:15-20 who had a gift of strength and might but when the gift failed him after slaying a thousand men with the jaw-bone of an ass he almost died of exhaustion.

However it was his ability to cry out to God at that moment that saved his life as God heard and answered him by creating a crater of water before him to drink that rejuvenated him back to life.

What an astounding miracle the Lord performed to save his life. I am sure you will desire God to meet you like that in your situation of need.

Well as the Holy Spirit pointed out to me, being able to cry out to God in the most desperate times and dangers in life. “Especially when God responds with a miracle to save you is the greatest place to be in life because God is capable of everything but your gift only covers a certain limited area God assigned it for.”

The Holy Spirit further reminded me that even Daniel’s gift mentioned in Daniel.2:10-30 of understanding dreams, visions and enigmas was not enough to help Nebuchardnezzar’s request to tell him what he had dreamt and then interpret it.

To interpret the dream was easy for Daniel as he had the gift from God to do so once he heard the dream, but no one possesses the gift to know what someone else dreamt and then reveal it.

However Daniel had the close daily relationship with the Lord which he developed over time that enabled him to cry out to God in his time of need. Of Course God granted him the answer by revealing the King’s dream to him. This explains why the King fell flat on his face in adoration before Daniel knowing that only God could do that as his men had told him before when he made that request.

Well the Holy Spirit wants us to make sure we are able to cry out to God and get an answer in the now for any present situation. This is why we need to be in daily living contact with the Lord for that to happen.

We need to work on strengthening our daily walk with Him and not rely on our gifting because the ability to cry out to God is our trump card. Then to get a now answer was what made the impossible possible for God’s servants as recorded in the bible.

I could go on and share more with others the Holy Spirit pointed out like Jehoshapath who cried out to God when he was facing death and God answered and delivered him. 2 Chronicles.18:31 & 32.

Hezekiah also cried out to God when Isaiah gave him a prophecy of his pending death and God stepped in and reversed it as he cried out to God by himself.Isaiah.38:2-8.

So today presents you another opportunity to make up your mind to work fervently on making your daily relationship with the Holy Spirit a priority. This practice will ensure you will be heard and answered when you cry out to the Lord as that is your primary purpose. You will then walk in the grace supplied to you through these words and always be in position to follow Him faithfully.

Remember Jesus’ command to His followers in John.10:27-30 My sheep know My Voice and the voice of a stranger they do not follow. Have a refreshing time with the Holy Spirit as you rekindle your communion time with Him today and find back your place of certainty with Him so that as you cry out to Him He will show up and answer you in a miraculous way in Jesus Name. Amen.

The Holy Spirit in my communion time with Him this morning reminded me of how much He is seeking to help us tighten up our walk and put a stop to the small things that cause us to drift. This reality is to enable us to override all the usual sneak events satan has used previously to rob us of triumph by using offenses at the last moment that gives him the right to take our prize, because we have left our position and run off.

However there is good news today because the Holy Spirit wants you armed with the necessary grace to be steadfast, immovable and always refusing to give ground through these words. This is intended so you go on to walk in and partake of your divine inheritance and glorify the name of the Lord in your life in marvels of God.

Today open your heart and allow the Spirit of wisdom to navigate and direct you. So you are found saturated in Him and not your natural, fleshly wisdom so the triumph of the Lord will be your outcome in Jesus name.

The Holy Spirit spoke to me today about understanding wisdom and its importance in our daily lives. The Spirit of Wisdom is a Person as opposed to the Word of Wisdom which is a single word from the Person of Wisdom. This difference is why the Apostle Paul spent so much time praying that we be filled with the Spirit of Wisdom and the knowledge of God’s will in everything. Ephesians.1:17 & 18

The truth is that single words of Wisdom are not enough for our lives, and we are going to need the immersion in the Spirit of Wisdom to fulfill the purpose of God. We need more than a single word of wisdom to navigate all the situations that will come up in life and this is why it is imperative for us to seek the Lord for the Spirit of Wisdom.

In our time the Holy Spirit showed me a word from Proverbs:27.11 which reads: My son, when you walk in wisdom, My heart is filled with gladness, for the way you live is proof that I’ve not taught you in vain. This scripture points to the reality that the Father wants us to walk in Wisdom because it is vital to our living in a way that pleases Him. Wisdom we must recognize in Himself is an entity we must walk in.

This alludes to the fact that we will need to lose who we are, as we embrace Him and walk in His abilities. We must allow His nature and characteristics to begin to permeate our lives and not ours. This is a major mindset shift for us as humans because it means we are not in control.

You must understand that Wisdom’s nature is Pure, Peaceable, full of understanding, loving, kind, gentle which points to the fact that when we are walking in Him these should be the fruit our lives exhibit.

This ensures we always have checks we can take to test ourselves in how we are walking with God and make it a habit to assess ourselves so we keep short time accounts with God.

“Most importantly there is no pride in Wisdom even though He knows all things and can do all things and has the answers to all things.”

The Holy Spirit went on to tell me that He the Lord is filled with gladness when we walk in Wisdom that is: When His Nature and Character are exhibited through our lives as our fruit shows clearly in action that our deeds are done through His power and hand rather than ours. He reminded me which He always does that Jesus only reflected the will of the Father not His Own even though He was the word of God. John.5:30.

A beautiful lesson that the Holy Spirit pointed out to me is that we should live by the voice of the Lord versus the law of God. My sheep Jesus says know my voice and the voice of a stranger they will not follow. John.10:4. Jesus said in John.5:30b As I hear My Father’s voice I judge and my judgment is right because I seek not my desire but the desire of the One who sent Me.

The Spirit of truth always guides us into all truth, the full comprehensive reality of the whole truth. John.16:13. Satan the Holy Spirit reminded me spoke to Jesus using the word in his temptations to move Jesus to sin.

However Jesus answered back with the truth He heard from His Father which the Holy Spirit spoke to Him. Thou art My beloved Son in whom I am well pleased as that is the word you should walk in not the question from an enemy asking if you are the son of God.

Jesus knew the voice of His Father and was not going to let questions on the integrity of the voice of His Father shift Him from position. This is why the Holy Spirit pointed out the importance of walking in Wisdom so we are lost in the Nature of God and can’t be seen.

This is so that God is the Person revealed through us which will please Him as it did with Jesus. The Spirit of Wisdom is the answer which no one can thwart. Acts.6:10.

When walking in Wisdom we don’t have to pretend to be God-like by changing the way we sound. We must just be as we surrender to Him, and watch as our weaknesses are swallowed up in His Strength and that’s the place we should always want to be and walk in.

In this posture of walking in the Spirit of wisdom it proves clearly to all that we have not been taught in vain but we reflect who God is to our world. Acts.4:13.In other words our light so shines that men see our good works and glorify our Father in Heaven and we bear Him much fruit which remains.

May your story be that you walk continuously going forward in the Spirit of Wisdom and let every grace you need be supplied to you through these words. Then let the Holy Spirit broaden your scope so that you will reflect the nature and character of Jesus in all your doings daily going forward in Jesus Name. Amen.

In my communion time this morning the Holy Spirit clearly spoke to me of the reality we have in Him when we feel weak, weary and just out of sorts because of continuous vicious attacks from satan.

It appears like we seem unable to have rest to move forward. Let these words minister greater grace to you today to be propelled into action to move forward in the Lord to see your inheritance manifested this year in Jesus name. Amen.

The Holy Spirit proceeded to share with me a truth for you today that He pointed out to me that keeps you going stronger even after you have been weak and unable to lay hold of a present opportunity and had to pull out.

If you would spend quality time fellowshipping with the Holy Spirit you will find nuggets of truth that can bring you out of the most difficult places and still find a way out that is triumphant in impact and removes shame and disgrace from your life.John.16:14 & 15.

The Holy Spirit reminded me of the word in 2 Corinthians.2:14 which reads But thanks be to God, who in the Messiah constantly leads us in a triumphal procession and through us spreads everywhere the fragrance of what it means to know him!

Now this scripture comes up on the back of a failure on the part of the Apostle Paul to capitalize on an opportunity of an open door which the Lord had given him in Troas. 2 Corinthians.2:12 & 13. Paul from scripture was always looking for doors of opportunity into various regions to share the gospel for which Christ had chosen him.

So it was very strange to note that on this particular occasion, after the door had been opened by the Lord and there were no adversaries, Paul seemed unable to take it and moved away to go find Titus.

So I asked the Holy Spirit why did Paul not take this opportunity? This was because many times before he was willing to fight through difficult circumstances and treacherous terrain just to get in and then be driven out. So why on this occasion now that everything was ready and laid out by the Lord was he unable to carry through this opportunity.

I wondered why Paul did not ask the Holy Spirit about the progress on Titus and get confirmation on what the situation involved. The Holy Spirit is the Comforter so why was Paul not relying on the word the Holy Spirit would give him about Titus and be comforted in that word from the Holy Spirit. I had come to realize from the teachings of Paul the importance of relying on the comfort of the Holy Spirit above anything else.

My reasoning was that at least He could then have spoken words to bring encouragement and edification to people that were ready for his message with open hearts. This was a divine moment which would have given them an opportunity to experience the multifaceted grace in His life which would have had free course because of their willingness .

Remember Paul was the one who had pointed out that we should walk by faith and not by sight so what was up here. 2 Corinthians.5:7. I thought finally an open door without all the hassles that he normally faced and that should have been a dream come true. Free course to share what he had when everything was in place.

I then said to the Lord how can he then go on and say thanks be to God who always leads us out in triumph and through us spreads the fragrance of knowledge of God when it appears there has just been a failure on his part. The Holy Spirit then interjected and said. Was Paul led out in triumph on this occasion? So I said I am not sure?

“So the Holy Spirit said I never fail to lead anyone out in triumph in any given situation, but our action of obedience or disobedience in that situation is what will decide the outcome of whether the fragrance of the knowledge of Him is spread around.”

Paul never spread that fragrance of the knowledge of God on that occasion so no one could benefit from it.

I realized just how important our obedience is to enable the Lord to do anything on the earth and what a refusal to obey can cost the life of others beyond our comforts or concerns.

“The Holy Spirit only needed the body of Paul to be present and do the speaking for there to be a manifestation of God.”

I learnt a very important lesson that day of how important it is for me to always be ready to share what God has given me and not allow any family situation, worry or concern stop me when God opens the opportunity for me to spread His fragrance. Never allow my weakness to hinder and stop the process of the Lord.

This revelation further emphasized the reality of Jesus’s Pep talk to the disciples in Luke.12:35-37 “Let your waist be girded and your lamps burning; 36 and you yourselves be like men who wait for their master, when he will return from the wedding, that when he comes and knocks they may open to him immediately. 37 Blessed are those servants whom the master, when he comes, will find watching. Assuredly, I say to you that he will gird himself and have them sit down to eat, and will come and serve them. “

“I never want to be the reason for the Lord’s will not to be fulfilled because I did something wrong or were not prepared ahead of time.”

I asked the Holy Spirit to help me always be ready to do what He wanted and not miss an opportunity He created because it takes time to recover a missed chance and be back in that place. Jude.24 & 25.

Now the question for us is? Since the Lord will always lead us out in triumph in Christ, will we make ourselves available for the fragrance of the knowledge of God to be manifested everywhere through our lives. We need to be willing to make that commitment to the Lord that our bodies will do what is necessary not to miss any opportunity the Lord creates for us to manifest His glory.

“Jesus makes that choice in John.4 in Samaria for the woman at the well when he remains waiting for her though He is thirsty and tired so that the fragrance of the knowledge of His kingdom could be released in Samaria and the lives of a whole community could be changed eternally.”

I pray that as you receive these words the grace of the Holy Spirit will be released to you to embrace this truth. Be empowered by it and enabled so you are ready to take every opportunity that the Holy Spirit provides you to spread the Fragrance of the knowledge of God in every place you go so that the Kingdom of Jesus is expanded for His glory. Amen.

n my communion time with the Holy Spirit this morning He reminded me to stir up our hearts again to action in how we choose to think about ourselves after facing much assault,  enemy tactics and accusations which are requiring you to lay down. Seeking to force you to give up the fight saying this year is no different as things haven’t improved yet. So just settle in and expect the usual result no change so just cave in to the flesh offers of a quick way out.

Well that is a lie from the pit of hell and the Lord wants you to adjust your shoulders back up and tell those lying thoughts where to go. Then boldly lay claim to the inheritance God has determined for you to experience this year starting now in Jesus name. So get out your God centred thoughts and let these words of grace propel you into action again to lay hold of the promise for real this year so that the name of Jesus will be magnified in your life in this season in Jesus name. Amen.

The Holy Spirit asks you today what are the thoughts you have concerning yourself that motivate you to action? Put them aside and take the Lord’s thoughts for you because the Lord knows the thoughts He thinks towards you’ thoughts of good, peace not of evil, designed to give you a future, a hope and an expected end of glory. Jeremiah.29:11.

Now when the Lord says He knows His thoughts He means that He has considered everything in both the spiritual world and the physical world. Then created a way that will bring you out victorious and triumphant bearing much fruit.So for that reason you can count on it to work out regardless of any opposition and assault on it.Romans.8:28.

Settle this matter once and for all  the Holy Spirit wants you to know that your thoughts are based on the present facts before you and the seeming favorable options that look or seem right that will bring you solutions in the now. Remember these thoughts are all superficial and subject to change. They have not considered the spiritual ramifications of such decisions and where those will lead to.Isaiah.55:8 & 9. 

Your thoughts have only considered the natural benefits that will be gained from the present offers before you. The fact that they appear to be favorable,and  look like the best option presently, however the end of them will be disastrous.

He reminded me of the situation of Israel in Babylon when at the time they should be leaving there after 70 years to go back and build Israel. They are searching vigorously for material to build houses in Persia. Although they were only meeting with blocks and obstacles with much loss of money and energy. Haggai.1.

 They continued pursuing this phantom as they watched their resources going down the drain with no favor or help. Then the Lord confronts them through the Prophet Haggai to look at the bad situation and consider carefully which is the best way forward for them, their thoughts or God’s.

Then by using the prophesying of Haggai, Zechariah and Malachi they choose to change thoughts and perspective. They make the choice to go with God’s thoughts and instantly with that change of thoughts their results change. In fact God even tells them to mark the date of the difference in results that begin to happen to prove the reality that change has happened.The result is no more waste of money, time or physical energy. Haggai.2:15-18.

Well today the Holy Spirit wants you to put aside your grand plans and come back to building His plan for your life. Then watch how things shift and begin to take shape as doors of opportunity open up because you chose the path of God’s thoughts for you versus yours. Then become a partaker of the miraculous process of arriving at a safe destination in the fullness of the Lord’s provision and supply fully saturated with peace and joy. Your life will be free from strife, shame and disgrace with plenty becoming your way of life and your expected end of glory and goodness in the Lord.

Remember that it is only a little adjustment of your thought process from yours to God’s that opens you up to a world of variety and abundance of the realm of the Holy Spirit. That change cannot be stopped or hampered or even be detected by your enemy which will propel you forward in triumph regardless of the odds against you in Jesus name.

I beseech you to lay aside your thoughts and plans. Then trust the Lord’s as you receive these words and the grace flowing through them. Then watch and see the all round difference in your life events and circumstances in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Go ahead and have a God filled and centred day with all the rich benefits in your life in Jesus Name. Amen
