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 The problem was not that Jesus had withdrawn His ability it was that Peter had allowed a contrary thought to replace his confidence in Jesus’ word.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.

Today lets pick up the continuation of my communion time with the Holy Spirit on entering His rest and riding with Him on the heights of the earth.

This same principle of entering the rest of the Lord appears in Hebrews 4:9–11 which reads these words: “There remains therefore a rest for the people of God. 10 For he who has entered His rest has himself also ceased from his works as God did from His. Let us therefore be diligent to enter that rest, lest anyone fall according to the same example of disobedience.” Entering the Lord’s rest means us ceasing from our own works in the same way the Lord ceased from His creation work.

This is not referring to passive laziness; paradoxically, because Scripture tells us to be diligent to enter that rest. It is a deliberate spiritual choice to stop attempting to accomplish the Lord’s purposes through self-effort and instead operating from what the Lord has already completed and from the direction of His Holy Spirit leading the way.

This revelation presents this place of rest as the greatest place from which to live because, when we remain there, we are essentially “on a roll” and riding with and by the hand of the Lord. Our confidence is no longer rooted in our own ability to make things happen but in the Lord’s completed work, His direction, and His ability to bring His purposes to pass.

This further points to John in the book of Revelation, who received this profound revelation on the Lord’s Day while he was alone and free from distractions on the Isle of Patmos. His solitude on the Isle allowed him to focus completely upon the Lord, and the results were extraordinary. The lesson is that us finding the place of rest in what the Lord has already done and completed creates an environment in which we can hear and receive from Him with much greater clarity because our hearts are at rest.

So rather than us being consumed with our own activity, we become positioned to receive the Lord’s perspective and His revelation on all things. Thus, Sabbath becomes a prophetic picture of entering a place where we are no longer driven by self-generated activity but on us resting in the Lord’s finished work, by listening to His Holy Spirit, and moving according to the direction He chooses. Ephesians.2:10.

The secret Place of His Presence is the ultimate destination of this journey with the Lord. So as we delight ourselves in Him and enter His rest, we start experiencing His protection and divine covering over our lives. This revelation describes this reality as us being hidden in the secret place of His pavilion from the strife of tongues and in the secret place of His Presence from the plots of men. Psalm.27:5.

This reality of walking in the rest of the Lord is also connected with the life of Jesus, who walked in such a dimension of divine protection and authority that meant that men could not harm or touch Him until the appointed time He chose to surrender His life for our sins. His life demonstrated what it looks like to operate under the Father’s will rather than us being controlled by the pressures and intentions of men.

The Holy Spirit is therefore inviting every follower of Jesus to move from the place merely knowing about His Presence to actually living from His Presence, from us merely receiving occasional guidance to being fully governed by Him, and from experiencing “just enough God” to entering into the overflowing abundance of the Lord’s glory. The central challenge for us is therefore deeply personal as to whether we will remain where we are, or we will choose to ride further with the Holy Spirit into the dimension where He is?

The Holy Spirit is calling us to make greater room for Him by us deliberately delighting in the Lord, by honouring His appointed times, to cease from our own ways, by refusing to be governed by our own pleasures and opinions, and learning to speak words that originate from Him. As we do this, we will find ourselves positioned in the place where we enter the Lord’s rest and experience His perspective, His authority, His protection, and His glory.

The desired outcome is not merely to have just a more peaceful personal life, but the vision is that the Lord’s glory would radiate through His people in such a great measure which produces much fruit that remains, by changing the lives and circumstances of people, thus influencing nations, and bringing full glory to the magnificent name of Jesus.

May the grace of the Holy Spirit be abundantly supplied to you to walk in these truths and may you take the deliberate action to Sabbath and delight yourself in the Lord, by giving Him your undivided attention and entering the rest of His completed work. May you cease from your own ways, your own pleasure, and your own words, and learn to move according to the Holy Spirit’s direction by speaking only the words He gives you.

I declare that you are moving beyond the place of “just enough” into the overflowing bounty of the Lord’s oceans of glory. You will not remain at the lower level when the Holy Spirit is calling you higher and you are entering the Lord’s rest, by riding upon the high places of the earth, and experiencing life from His perspective. You are being overtaken by the Presence of the Holy Spirit, governed by His wisdom, directed by His counsel, and empowered by His anointing.

You are hidden in the secret place of His Presence and protected from the strife of tongues and the plots of men. You will not be driven by your own opinions, pleasures, fears, or ambitions, but you will walk in the divine order of the Holy Spirit and the glory of the Lord will radiate through you.

The anointing upon your life will produce fruit that remains, circumstances will be changed by the power of the Lord working through you, and your life will become a vessel through which the righteousness of the Lord is revealed and desired.

I declare that you are riding with the Lord into higher places in His rest, under His authority, within His divine government, and in the magnificence of His glory. The Holy Spirit is bringing you into alignment with the centre of the Lord’s will for this season, and you will experience the fullness of what He has ordained for you.

Nations will be touched, lives will be transformed, and the name of Jesus will receive glory through what He accomplishes in and through you. You will bear much fruit, and your fruit will remain, in Jesus’ mighty name. Amen.

Today I am sharing a part of my communion time with the Holy Spirit on us riding with Him on the high places in complete rest.

This revelation is a call from the Holy Spirit to move beyond merely receiving His guidance into a deeper dimension of being completely overtaken by His Presence, so that His glory, anointing, and authority can flow through your life in a greater unprecedented measure. The question He presented was: Will you ride with the Holy Spirit further in His vehicle of glory, or remain in the place of “just enough,” rather than entering the overflowing bounty of His oceans of glory?

Although we may already be walking daily under the direction and guidance of the Holy Spirit, He is calling us higher into the place where His Presence so fills and governs us, so that through us an outpouring of His anointing can affect nations, change circumstances, and make righteousness become the desire of people’s hearts.

This picture of going higher with the Lord is drawn from Isaiah 58:13–14, where the Lord promises His people that those who honour His holy day, by turning away from their own pleasure and ways, and delight themselves in Him will be caused to “ride on the high hills of the earth” and be fed with the heritage of Jacob. This positioning in the Spirit represents more than just our ordinary Christian experience. It is a place where the Holy Spirit controls and directs our lives to where we begin to partake of everything the Lord says is available to us and we experience daily the fullness of the Lord.

The Holy Spirit highlighted the importance of the Sabbath or the day of rest as a significant part of entering into this dimension of riding with the Lord. In Genesis 2:1–3, after completing the heavens, the earth, and everything within them, the Lord rested on the seventh day, blessed it, and sanctified it. The striking revelation we miss is that man’s relationship with the Lord begins, in this sense, from the place of the Lord’s rest which He named the sabbath.

From scriptures account man clearly did not participate in the six-day creation work because he only entered into the picture on the seventh-day rest where the Lord’s work of creation had already been completed and everything was functioning according to the Lord’s order. Therefore, from the Holy Spirit’s perspective, Sabbath is not merely about us ceasing ordinary activity. It is a time where we delight ourselves completely in the Lord by giving Him our undivided attention.

The Lord makes His requirements very clear in Isaiah 58:13–14 where we are instructed to stop doing what pleases ourselves on His holy day and instead make the Lord Himself our delight. We are to honour the holy day by refusing to walk in our own ways which means we cease relying on the thoughts, opinions, judgments, and decisions that originate from ourselves which determine the path we follow.

The warning for us is clear that our own way ultimately leads to death, so we must cease from directing ourselves independently of the Lords input and leading. We are also instructed on the Sabbath to stop seeking our own pleasure and to stop speaking our own words. This fact connects directly with Jesus’ words in John 6:63, where He declared that it is the Spirit who gives life and that the flesh profits nothing.

The implication is that human words originating from ourselves do not carry the same life-giving power as words given by the Holy Spirit. From this commandment, the Holy Spirit is calling us to stop speaking merely from ourselves and learn to speak only what “thus says the Lord.” When the Lord’s words are placed in our mouths, they produce life and change circumstances.

So as we delight ourselves genuinely in the Lord, not just merely by calling Him our delight while continuing to live according to our own desires we then enter the place where He is which causes us to ride on the heights. From the vantage position being seated in the heavenly places far above all authority and power.

Our riding on the high places represents us entering a dimension in the Spirit where our lives begin to influence what happens around us, which even extends into us determining the affairs of nations. This is the place where the Holy Spirit’s government and authority become increasingly evident through us.

This revelation describes this process as us learning to ride where the Lord rides in His chariots of fire and under His divine control over situations and affairs. It is portrayed as a place of supreme glory where we the followers of Jesus walk in the reality of all the authority Christ possesses over everything in heaven and on earth.

This fact is not presented as self-exaltation or human influence platform for us, but as the result of us becoming so yielded to the Holy Spirit that the Lord’s purposes can be expressed through our surrendered vessels. The goal is that the anointing flowing through we the Lord’s people would produce results that demonstrate His glory, transform societies, and expand His Kingdom.

I declare that you are moving beyond the place of “just enough” into the overflowing bounty of the Lord’s oceans of glory. You will not remain at the lower level when the Holy Spirit is calling you higher and you are entering the Lord’s rest, by riding upon the high places of the earth, and experiencing life from His perspective. You are being overtaken by the Presence of the Holy Spirit, governed by His wisdom, directed by His counsel, and empowered by His anointing.

You are hidden in the secret place of His Presence and protected from the strife of tongues and the plots of men. You will not be driven by your own opinions, pleasures, fears, or ambitions, but you will walk in the divine order of the Holy Spirit and the glory of the Lord will radiate through you.

The anointing upon your life will produce fruit that remains, circumstances will be changed by the power of the Lord working through you, and your life will become a vessel through which the righteousness of the Lord is revealed and desired in Jesus name. Amen.

Today I share with you the conclusion to my communion time on how speaking with the boldness of the Holy Spirit creates the atmosphere for the miraculous.

The emphasis is therefore not one of manufactured excitement but on Holy Spirit activity which produced Holy Spirit boldness, resulting in a demonstration of extraordinary Kingdom results. The miraculous results of this encounter continued into Acts 4:32–37 where we see the multitude of believers become “of one heart and one soul.” Their unity was extraordinary because they no longer viewed their possessions merely as their own but willingly shared what they possessed for the benefit of the whole community. Selfishness was eradicated which was a great miracle.

Acts 4:33 says: “And with great power the apostles gave witness to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus. And great grace was upon them all.” The apostles demonstrated the tangible power of the resurrection of Jesus as their witness was not merely verbal but it was accompanied by great power and great grace. The grace that manifested had practical consequences. So according to Acts 4:34–35, there was no one among them who lacked because those who owned lands or houses sold them and brought the proceeds to the apostles, who distributed the resources according to the needs of the believers.

Acts 4:36–37 gives the example of Joses, whom the apostles called Barnabas, meaning “Son of Encouragement.” He was a Levite from Cyprus who owned land, sold it, and brought the money to the apostles. The result was remarkable resulting in a corporate deliverance from lack. This word highlights the extraordinary unity of the early Church. Every soul was united in heart and purpose, and believers were willing to relinquish personal ownership of possessions for the common good.

This was more than an impressive spiritual gathering because the resurrection power of Jesus was being tangibly manifested, as great grace was operating among the believers, and material resources were being released to eliminate the burden of poverty and lack among them. The result was that the believers’ circumstances changed dramatically as those who had abundant resources released them so that their brothers and sisters would not remain in need.

There was therefore corporate deliverance rather than an environment where individuals merely celebrated their own prosperity while others remained in need. The revelation expresses a longing to see such a manifestation again in our generation where the Holy Spirit is permitted to work through believers in such extraordinary ways that the declaration of the Lord’s Word is accompanied by the manifest hand of the Lord through miraculous signs.

This revelation is a call to pursue the grace of Holy Spirit Boldness. So the final appeal is for the Holy Spirit to ignite within us a fresh fire, passion, and determination to pursue this grace of boldness. The desired outcome is not boldness for personal recognition or religious performance but it is to have the boldness of the Holy Spirit that causes the Word of God to be spoken with such supernatural authority that the hand of the Lord is manifested, producing healing, signs, wonders, resurrection power, unity, grace, provision, and transformation.

My prayer is that this would grace would produce an awakening to the Lord in our generation with a manifestation of the miraculous so unmistakable that people would have to acknowledge that the Lord has visited His people and that we are living in days of His full manifestation. The Holy Spirit is therefore calling for us to pursue this reality passionately rather than settling for just our natural ability, human eloquence, manufactured excitement, or powerless religious activity of just sermons and Christian fellowships.

Please remember that the ultimate desire is for us to become people through whom the Lord Himself is demonstrated for men to see as His Word is spoken boldly through our mouths, with His power manifested openly, by observing His grace released abundantly, and His Kingdom expanded for the glory of Jesus.

I declare that the Holy Spirit is filling you afresh with supernatural boldness and you will no longer depend upon your natural eloquence, personality, strength, intellect, or ability, but upon the supernatural empowerment of the Holy Spirit infusing you. You will receive abundant grace to speak the Word of God with all boldness, without timidity, fear, hesitation, or trepidation.

I declare that your words will carry the unction of the Holy Spirit so that where there is darkness, your Holy Spirit-empowered declaration will release light. Where there is death, life will emerge, Where there is chaos, divine order will be established and Where the enemy has erected barriers, the power of the Holy Spirit will break through them.

As you speak the Word of the Lord in the boldness of the Holy Spirit, may the hand of the Lord be stretched out through your life to heal, deliver, restore, liberate, and perform signs and wonders through the name of Jesus to transform the lives of people. May your life become a testimony that the power of the resurrected Christ is still working among His people in our generation.

I declare that you will not merely talk about what the Lord can do but you will become a vessel through whom the reality of the Lord is manifested. May great grace rest upon you, and may the Holy Spirit produce through you results that cannot be explained by human ability in Jesus name.

May the Lord restore among His people a deeper unity of heart and soul and may selfishness give way to generosity, thus causing human division to give way for agreement, and individual concern give way to corporate love. May all resources be released to meet genuine needs, and may there be a corporate deliverance from lack as the grace of God operates powerfully among His people.

I declare that a fresh awakening to the Holy Spirit’s boldness is coming upon you and you will passionately pursue the reality of the Holy Spirit’s power until your life becomes an undeniable testimony of the presence of the Lord. May the manifestation through your life be so clear that people will have to acknowledge that “The Lord has visited us.”

May the Word of the Lord be spoken with boldness from your mouth, may the hand of the Lord be stretched forth, so that signs and wonders will follow its declaration, as great grace rests upon us His people, and the Kingdom of Jesus is expanded throughout the earth. May you be found passionately pursuing this reality in your generation, in Jesus’ mighty name. Amen.

From this first part of my communion time, the Holy Spirit wants us to understand clearly the fact that He is not depending on us to produce anything for the Lord through our own strength, ability, personality, eloquence, or natural capacity. Rather, He wants us to depend completely upon Him to empower us to become and do what the Lord created us to be. This makes clear that our effectiveness in the Kingdom does not originate in ourselves, but that it comes from the supernatural empowerment of the Holy Spirit.

Therefore, we must look to Him for the boldness necessary to become effective witnesses and instruments of the Lord’s Kingdom. Even if we consider ourselves eloquent speakers, our natural eloquence is insufficient for Kingdom purposes. Eloquence of speech can never defeat the works of the devil. So we need something beyond natural ability to get the job done which is the boldness that comes from the Holy Spirit.

In Acts 4:29–30 we hear this prayer: “Now, Lord, look on their threats, and grant to Your servants that with all boldness they may speak Your word, by stretching out Your hand to heal, and that signs and wonders may be done through the name of Your holy Servant Jesus.” This prayer should become our daily cry before the Lord: that we might speak the Word of God with all the boldness that flows from the Holy Spirit.

We see clearly that after the apostles were threatened because they continued speaking in the name of Jesus, they did not respond to the threats by relying on their own courage or natural confidence. Instead, they prayed for supernatural empowerment. There is a profound difference between merely speaking God’s Word with our natural voice and speaking that same Word under the unction of the Holy Spirit. Words spoken by the Holy Spirit carry life into places dominated by darkness and death and radiate light, by bringing forth life, transforming chaos into order, and causing negative circumstances to change.

So the clear objective for us as followers of Jesus is not merely to speak the Lord’s Word, but to speak them with the supernatural boldness and empowerment of the Holy Spirit which produces supernatural results. The apostles did not ask for a small measure of courage but they specifically asked the Lord to grant them the ability to speak His Word “with all boldness.” This means that there should be no deliberate deficiency in our spiritual boldness. We should do no speaking for the Lord while remaining dominated by timidity, fear, hesitation, or trepidation.

We should desire to be fully loaded with all the boldness the Holy Spirit possesses and supplies, because that boldness carries the capacity to produce answers of great magnitude. This message emphasises the fact that our boldness in speaking the Word is directly connected with the manifestation of the Lord’s hand through miraculous results. The apostles asked for boldness to speak the Word, and then connected that boldness with the Lord stretching out His hand to heal and perform signs and wonders through the name of Jesus.

Thus we see, that without the boldness of speaking that comes from the Holy Spirit, we should not expect to see the full manifestation of the Lord’s miraculous power through our lives. We must therefore deliberately ask the Lord, through the Holy Spirit, for the boldness to speak His Word, then trust and know that the manifestation of the hand of the Lord will follow. This agrees with the principle in Zechariah.4:6 which reads these words: “Not by might, nor by power but by My Spirit says the Lord.”

Our shouting, high volume, personality, or natural intensity cannot break through the enemy’s resistance. What breaks through obstacles is being filled with the boldness of the Holy Spirit. The apostles prayed for boldness, and the Holy Spirit answered them through Acts 4:31 which says these words:“ And when they had prayed, the place where they were assembled together was shaken; and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and they spoke the word of God with boldness.”

This is a striking contrast to what often happens in our Church gatherings because we see people themselves generating the shaking, activity, excitement, and commotion. But here in acts, the Holy Spirit was the One who shook the place. The apostles prayed, the place was shaken, and they were filled with the Holy Spirit, and the immediate result was that they spoke the Word of God with boldness.

I declare that the Holy Spirit is filling you afresh with supernatural boldness and you will no longer depend upon your natural eloquence, personality, strength, intellect, or ability, but upon the supernatural empowerment of the Holy Spirit infusing you. You will receive abundant grace to speak the Word of God with all boldness, without timidity, fear, hesitation, or trepidation.

I declare that your words will carry the unction of the Holy Spirit so that where there is darkness, your Holy Spirit-empowered declaration will release light. Where there is death, life will emerge, Where there is chaos, divine order will be established and Where the enemy has erected barriers, the power of the Holy Spirit will break through them.

As you speak the Word of the Lord in the boldness of the Holy Spirit, may the hand of the Lord be stretched out through your life to heal, deliver, restore, liberate, and perform signs and wonders through the name of Jesus to transform the lives of people. May your life become a testimony that the power of the resurrected Christ is still working among His people in our generation.

I declare that you will not merely talk about what the Lord can do but you will become a vessel through whom the reality of the Lord is manifested. May great grace rest upon you, and may the Holy Spirit produce through you results that cannot be explained by human ability in Jesus name. Amen.

Today in conclusion of my communion time with the Holy Spirit I invite you to receive these words of life in understanding how our ministry to the Lord changes the direction of our lives into greater influence.

A shift had come for their lives so Paul and Barnabas needed to recognise it, and their willingness to minister to the Lord created the setting in which the Holy Spirit could reveal that shift. This message therefore encourages us to prioritise making time to minister to the Lord and watch closely for what begins to change in our lives and circumstances because the Holy Spirit always reveals what lies ahead for us to accomplish for the Kingdom. We are to remember that Jesus had also said in John 16:13 that the Holy Spirit would “reveal to us the things to come.”

This aspect of the Holy Spirit’s ministry becomes evident in this experience of Paul and Barnabas. The Holy Spirit revealed in this moment that their future was going to change dramatically, not merely in ministry responsibility but in practically every aspect of their lives. They would leave Antioch and move into different regions. So they would no longer remain settled within one environment in a single region or simply live ordinary, predictable lives in their homes.

Their assignment would require them to be continually on the move, by effectively living out of their suitcases as they followed the sphere of influence the Lord was opening up before them. Their previous church-based support structure would no longer be the primary framework for their lives. The Holy Spirit Himself would now become the One directing their affairs and, in the language of today become their “Boss.”

This becomes the reality when the Holy Spirit becomes the One directing your affairs. So once the Holy Spirit took over the direction of Paul and Barnabas’ lives, everything changed as a new authority operated in their lives. New sources of provision and new ways of obtaining what they needed became available including things they had never previously experienced.

This was not abandonment to the elements in the world because the Lord who sent them would not send them out as orphans to perish. The same Holy Spirit who commissioned them would provide what was necessary for them to fulfil the assignment He sent them out to do. So their provision would come as they followed the Holy Spirit’s direction.

This message therefore presents how obedience to the Holy Spirit is not merely as a spiritual ideal but the pathway into the Lord’s provision, positioning, purpose, influence, supernatural activity, and greater dimensions of ministry. The record from Acts 13 onward is dramatic as we see what Paul subsequently manifested through the power of Jesus was extraordinary in magnitude.

His life became a living demonstration of what can happen when a disciple of Jesus becomes sensitive to and obedient to the Holy Spirit. Their story is therefore presented as a reminder of how obedience to the Holy Spirit can radically reposition a believer and propel them into dimensions of the Lord’s plan they could never have entered by remaining in their former environment.

This message closes with a prayer that the Holy Spirit will open your eyes to these truths and impart grace wherever you currently are in our relationship with Jesus. My desire is that you would be propelled into the Lord’s plan for your lives, while also allowing the Holy Spirit to move you back into the proper place and alignment for this present season.

Even in the times when you have become misaligned, by remaining in a former position too long, or failed to recognise that the Lord is directing you into something new. Know for certain that the Holy Spirit is able to reposition you and bring you back into the centre of Jesus’ present will for your lives.

This prayer is also for the Holy Spirit to enable you to recover your lost years and bring you into the place of glory that He ordained for you to walk in. Your decisive requirement is simple which is to be ready to follow whatever the Holy Spirit asks you to do because as you yield to His direction, you should expect Him to bring changes into your lives that could never have occurred through human planning alone.

I declare that your eyes are being opened to the ministry and leadership of the Holy Spirit. You will no longer remain stagnant in an old understanding when the Spirit of truth is calling you into greater revelation. You receive grace to remain a humble student of the truth, by continually learning, discerning, and understanding the things of the Lord.

I declare that you will make room to minister to the Lord, and as you seek Him, the Holy Spirit will speak clearly to you concerning your next assignment, your present positioning, and the things to come. You will be propelled by the Holy Spirit into the assignment ordained for you, and you will not go there abandoned or unsupported.

You will recognise every divine shift in your life and you will not resist the transition into the greater purpose of the Lord for your life. I declare that the Holy Spirit is bringing you back into alignment with the centre of Jesus’ will for you as every misplaced step is being corrected, every lost opportunity is being redeemed according to the Lord’s purpose, and your lost years are being recovered by the grace of God in Jesus name. Amen.

The Holy Spirit who sends you out will provide for you as new doors, new sources of provision, new spheres of influence, and new dimensions of supernatural activity are open up as you obey His voice. The power of the Holy Spirit will work through your life in ways that testify to the reality of Jesus.

Your obedience will expand the reach of His Kingdom, and your life will become a testimony of what happens when a disciple follows the Spirit of truth. You will not miss your divine positioning but you will hear, understand, obey, and move promptly on the Holy Spirit’s instruction.

The Holy Spirit will guide you into all truth, by revealing what you need to know, by showing you things to come, thus glorifying Jesus through your life, and leading you into the fullness of the assignment prepared for you. You are entering a new dimension of alignment, purpose, provision, influence, and glory by the power of the Holy Spirit, in Jesus’ name. Amen.
