The Word Of The Lord For The 21/02/2024. From Emile Luke.

Do you feel like you are always being corrected and rebuked for every little thing? Why are you always judging my motives and conduct rather than praising me? Well today the Holy Spirit gave me an encouraging word for you. You are being corrected first because God loves you and does not want you to fail.

Correction is a priority in the Kingdom of Jesus and we need to love it if we are to make huge progress. Proverbs.3:11, Proverbs.15:10 & 32, Proverbs.22:15, Proverbs.23:13 and Jeremiah.2:30.

He has committed Himself to you triumphing in life and will not leave you to your own devices which will bring you failure. He pointed out that the people He God leaves to their own devices are those that fall into perdition and have a hardened heart and are unable to repent and find deliverance, so we need to rejoice and be glad that God is on our back correcting our conduct.An example is Saul who the Lord told Samuel I have rejected him.1 Samuel.16:1

The Holy Spirit then pointed out that corrections also deal with us navigating things more correctly and from a wider spectrum beyond ourselves. It reflects seeing from God’s viewpoint versus ours on a matter where we are miles apart and it is only through correction and rebuke can we experience wisdom for real and can make right decisions which are vital for Godly outcomes in our lives.

He then reminded me of those He never corrected in the bible and their end and I don’t want to think on those.Too painful.

That is those He allowed to have their own way and therefore the result of their own ways which is death. We need He pointed out to me to value most highly the correction and rebuke of the Lord for that ensures we remain in His ways and means we will walk in His paths of pleasantness and peace at all times. Jesus He pointed out commanded us to follow Him not dictate to Him the path forward.

The Holy Spirit’s record of leading people to success and victory is immutable so we can follow His voice and be confident we will reach the side of victory and triumph. So today begin to develop a greater love and cherish the correction and rebuke of the Lord and just watch and see how you will be navigated out of paths of death and continual hassle and shame to paths of success and victory and great rejoicing.

Lay hold of the fact that His love for you transcends your love and care for yourself and remember that His love will keep you connected with His plan,purpose and intent for your life which will never change. Rise up in the grace these words provide you and go out and have a conquering, victorious day in Jesus Name. Amen.

The Word Of The Lord For The 19/02/2024. From Emile Luke.

The Holy Spirit spoke to me this morning about our souls becoming more willing to wait on Him before taking action. He pointed out that our souls always want to react and respond quickly to things and this causes us to make mistakes and answer prematurely and hence lose the plan God intended. We need to train our souls to wait and our mouths to refrain from quick answers.

He said from quick responses and wait for direction and life giving words to speak given by the Holy Spirit. He reminded me of the occasion in John where the lady caught in adultery was brought before Jesus and they wanted Him to respond in the immediate, but Jesus just paused and let the Holy Spirit answer through Him rather than blot out a response that could have hurt Him.

He reminded me that though they kept pressing Jesus for an answer Jesus switched off until the Holy Spirit gave him words to speak which silenced the whole moment and brought unusual results in dismantling the accusing crowd and left Him with the accused victim.

It enabled me to repent of many occasions I had been too hasty to give an answer that went wrong and I was able to relook at those matters and correct my perception at those times and see my wrong which I could now correct. I don’t know of any teacher that is able to correct with such distinction and class as the Holy Spirit.

This word has enabled me to understand why the enemy always wants us to blot out things prematurely so that we give him room in our matters and allow him scope to destroy a potential God situation and ruin it.

We need to remember to be slow to speak and swift to listen. He reminded me that not speaking means non committal but once I have spoken I have indicated my choice and will have to live with it. This God principle He pointed out I should adopt will free me from many problems and difficulties.

The Holy Spirit pointed out to me that no matter the pressure, fear of loss and the missing of a lifetime opportunity I must wait for Him and only respond with His decision and words not mine.

So today I encourage you to slow down in your responses and wait on the Holy Spirit before you blab out what will hurt you. Speak to your soul to calm down and wait on the Lord and you will be strengthened in the Lord and the power of His might.

Let grace arise in your soul today to gain the greater in God rather than loss because of wrong untimely responses which breed sorrow. May your day be victorious and triumphant as you yield to these words from the Spirit in Jesus Name. Amen.

The Word Of The Lord For The 20/02/2024. From Emile Luke.

Thank You Holy Spirit for resolving the inner conflict of our souls that is our minds,our emotions,our intellect and our will that empower us to make the right decision. Help us today to resolve the inner conflicts within us that rob us of Your better plan for our lives and make us settle for nothingness and failure. Help us reject the thoughts of grandeur and entitlement and cause us to embrace the mind of service to and for You.

Empower us to see ourselves from Your perspective and reject any contrary voice that speaks to weaken our resolve and force us back to the failure syndrome that robs us of achievement and attainment of God’s intent and purpose for our lives.Holy Spirit please enable us to accept your counsel and walk in union with You till Your counsel is manifested on earth.

Keep us from the negative thoughts,vibes and narratives that seek to tell us that this cannot be for us and cause us to step down from the place of trust to submit to fear thus relinquishing the ground we had gained.

Cause us to be stout hearted and bull headed in doing what You guide us to do and obey and be as resistant to any other contrary voice or vibe that seeks to influence us. Empower us to resist and ward off any counsel that offers a contrary reward to what You have promised.

Let us not fall for the same lie that satan offered Eve to settle to know and gain knowledge versus just following Your word and the promises you made as in them is our life. Help us to be conscious that we can stumble at any moment and be diverted from the God path and find ourselves drifting to places and situations we are unconscious of that lead to nothingness.

Help us Holy Spirit from stumbling and falling and present us Holy and blameless before God so we are able to receive and experience the reward You planned for us to experience.

Do not allow pride or arrogance or that evil way take preeminence over our thoughts and ruin our reward by derailing us off of the God path. Teach us and enable us to walk in Your teaching and wisdom till we attain the God intended outcome.

Let us not begin the walk and then stumble as Peter did on the water and lose the full reward. Help us to walk the path of trust to the end and not settle for having begun but never completed.

Let our lives reflect that we started and completed the full journey with God and have the perfect desired outcome God intended for our lives over and over again till our lives are overflowing with the God completed results of full glory and His goodness and resounding signs,wonders and miracles that show that Jesus is with us. Grant this we pray in Jesus Name. Amen.

We receive this prayer concluded and completed in every way and accept the aid of angels and the Holy Spirit and all the heavenly Hosts of God to make this a reality in our lives today in Jesus Name. Amen. Have a God enriched and empowered triumphant day in Jesus Name. Amen.

The Word Of The Lord For The 18/02/2024. From Emile Luke.

In my communion time with the Holy Spirit this morning which is my life connection point to the heart of God and to know what He has to say about things. The Holy Spirit spoke to me about asking Him to empty out of my heart everything that is false, every lie and every crooked thing that is an obstacle to me reaching my full potential in Him and walking in the paths He ordained for me to achieve and fulfill for Him on earth.

The reason behind this is for me is to have maximum results not limited victories to gloat over.This is from Proverbs:30.8 which reads Remove falsehood and lies far from me;

Give me neither poverty nor riches—Feed me with the food allotted to me; The Holy Spirit went on to show me why Isaiah:40:3-5 was a necessary requirement for us disciples to make a daily practice in our lives if we are to see His glory of the Lord manifested in our lives.

He emphasized the importance of emptying out every false thing from our hearts and lies that we have believed, received and walked in that have ended us in tricky difficult places from which He has had to navigate us out of and then reposition us which is time consuming that could be avoided if we did this daily.

He pointed out that the reason why we should do this is in order to stop undue suffering and pain in our lives which Jesus carried for us and to enjoy and experience more of the good life Jesus paid for us to have without added sorrow.

He pointed out to me that He takes no pleasure in us suffering and missing the mark but in us bearing much fruit which remains. He died to make sure we could succeed, not to remain in failure. He reminded me that we don’t need Him to fail as we are masters at failing on our own. He is fully aware of this. What we need union with Him for is to start succeeding and making greater progress in life.

Every lie or falsehood we bow to or allow impedes the truth we know in our hearts and keeps us bound and slaves to that narrative of continuous grinding. We must He insisted on allowing only truth in the heart which makes us free and repent of quickly lies and deceptions we receive which seek to give us an easy way out of quandaries.

He pointed out that we need to ask Him for He is our Helper to daily remove falsehoods and lies from our lives as our human heart always first responds to deception because that’s what it loves, and only the new God heart responds to truth which we consciously have to agree to and then do.

So my dear Brethren ask the Holy Spirit to help you empty your heart daily of trash that is lies and falsehood and to grace you to accept and allow truth to flow through your hearts so that God can be seen and manifested through you as Jesus pointed out when He said let your light so shine before men that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.

This He pointed out to me is the Fathers greatest desire for us so, we need to pursue it with all our heart, mind, emotions, will, intellect and body daily as we face daily battles and struggles which we must overcome.

Rise up in the grace these words make available to you and have a triumphant Sunday and be a refreshing spring of life to someone today who is needing to be lifted from a pit of sorrow because you yield to the Holy Spirit’s voice in and be His voice to them that gives them that freedom in Jesus Name. Amen

The Word Of The Lord For The 17/02/2024. From Emile Luke.

The Holy Spirit spoke to me in my communion time about goal setting from His perspective versus mine. He mentioned how much we humans set daily, monthly, yearly goals which we work towards daily to achieve a project which is good for our lives in order to make progress.

However He pointed out to me two goals we should never drift from no matter what; for they are our lifeline, but we don’t place enough value on them to consistently do diligently. Proverbs.3:21 My child, never drift off course from these two goals for your life: to walk in wisdom and to discover your purpose. Don’t ever forget how they empower you.

We constantly fall from doing them and make excuses about why we can’t keep doing them.

The first He said was to walk in wisdom and secondly to discover our purpose in Him.The reason we have been born into the earth and our contribution to humanity that the Lord wants made known to men. It seemed simple enough I thought but He explained it required a process because before you can walk in something you have to know it well enough.

The Holy Spirit pointed out that wisdom firstly has to be sought for diligently and not loosely and can only be found if our heart is committed to the process which will of course involve time which is precious. We must not drift from taking time to seek Him daily for wisdom on what to do and then change once we receive it to do and obey it for us to walk it out in real terms.

The Holy Spirit said no excuses can change the facts but repentance when found doing it. I believe you are getting the picture here. The Lord is wanting more of our time spent with Him gaining life than seeking temporary things which always fail and fade in time no matter how wonderful they were at the beginning.

The Holy Spirit wants our hearts’ greatest desire to be coming and seeking diligently after Him. The Lord loves to be sought after. He went on to explain the second which is the discovery of our purpose which again one can never find outside the wisdom from and relationship with Him.

The Holy Spirit reminded me that Jesus said in John:5:30 that the Son can do nothing on His own but what He sees the Father do. He pointed out that most times we start in His will when we first hear but drift off into our thought on what His will is only to find out down the line we are miles off course and in a place of danger needing help.

This the Holy Spirit pointed out could have been avoided had we just checked in with Him daily and made the necessary adjustment we needed to in order to be in step with His will. He said I want you to walk in My will more than you desire it but I need to make the choice to come to Him.

This is what free will entails which the Lord gives to each human to make the choice. He pointed out that’s why He loved David because he always inquired of the Lord rather than presume on the Lord. He was a man after God’s heart and had so many answers because he asked and therefore received.

These are the most important goals we are not to drift from for they keep us in union with the Lord and in step with His will which is the greatest virtue of life in Jesus. Our reliance on His counsel rather than our discernment and knowledge. This is true humility.

So I encourage you today as I was challenged to come back to making these two goals the priority in your lives and see the difference it will make in your daily outcomes in life, moving you from shame and pain to glory and abundant outstanding results. May you be touched By the Holy Spirit today and rediscover the wells of life He has in store for you in Jesus Name. Amen.

The Word Of The Lord For The 16/02/2024. From Emile Luke.

The Holy Spirit says today that we need to set our gaze fully on the path He Jesus has set before us.Joshua.1:8 This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate in it day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success.

Consistent looking at the Lord to hear what He is saying till we observe what to do. Also Habakkuk.2:1 which reads I will stand my watch And set myself on the rampart, And watch to see what He will say to me, And what I will answer when I am corrected.

Now He pointed out to me how we are to gaze, which is the process of continuous watching at something in this case His word in Spirit with the intent and purpose to take note of every movement and observe any change that happens to record it, understand it and take note of them in order not to miss even the slightest movement which can give insight or knowledge of every detail.

The Holy Spirit said to me that this is the level of attention we need to give to the things He speaks to us and not just take them lightly and act presumptuously assuming we have all the knowledge necessary once we hear a word. We need He pointed out to focus our attention with fixed purpose as Jesus did at the garden of Gethsemane before going ahead and walking the path of the cross for us.

The writer of Hebrews in chapter 12:2 pointed out that Jesus looked at the joy set before Him, and not the side show of the pain, shame and sorrow. His gaze was completely on the path the Father had for Him and there was no turning from it. He said that’s what we need to continue doing daily to build our walk with Him to ensure we will not come off the path because of side shows that look interesting and lucrative.

Looking straight ahead and not allowing life distractions which He pointed out will always be there. We need to be able to navigate life in spite of them and zero in on the Lord’s path for our lives. Doing Him and fulfilling His pleasure is more valuable than any side show satan can muster to distract us and we need to recognise this and make our adjustments to line up with God.

More and More the Holy Spirit pointed out we are going to need to develop our ability to gaze on Him. That means we see nothing but His will and plan. Then cultivate a lifestyle in that zone of life free of the enemy and the ups and downs of misses and partial victories. We need to want the full prize and not settle for partial relief of victory that keeps us running circles of pain and trauma and small blessings of relief.

I encourage you today to take the high road and set your gaze upon the path of the Lord and ignore all the life distractions that are vying for your attention and watch all those seeming great ideas wither before you and become nothing as you march in the triumphant path of the Lord that brings rich fulfillment in all things and makes and keeps you whole in Jesus Name. Amen.

The Word Of The Lord For The 15/02/2024. From Emile Luke.

Wow! Today the Holy Spirit really helped me by speaking things to me about my inner self that sabotage my progress and are the ropes that hold me captive and rob me of my true destiny. Not the devil, not people and what they do to hurt me but my own Conscience which endures scars that then become the ropes that bind me from moving forward and keep me in cycles of repetition which keep me hostage to past pain and sorrow from which there is no life but death.

The Holy Spirit pointed out to me that the scars of the conscience means I keep repeating the sins that continue to overtake me and bring to light or the surface the reality that the scars of the conscience have not been healed and dealt with and hence I will run the path of that sin again, though I hate the pain it causes and what that does to harm me, and wonder what is wrong with me.

Why can I not learn from the last time this occurred and overcome it. What makes me always fall back to this bad habit and have to repent that I missed it again though I promised myself that I have learnt the lesson this time and won’t fall.

Well the good news is that the Holy Spirit pointed out that the scars of the conscience that is the pain, sorrow, hurt, betrayal and bitterness of what happened so impact me that those ropes bind me from moving forward because they keep repeating in me that I am bound by that past experience and cannot move on from it.

It has become the controlling thought of my life and determines how I respond to everything and even how I process truth. That scar of the conscience eclipses all reality and I become a hostage to failure though I am doing everything physically to succeed.

The Holy Spirit reminded me of Hebrews.9:14 how much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself without spot to God, cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living God? You see the blood of Jesus purges my conscience from every dead work to enable me to serve the Living God.

He also pointed out to me the scripture in Hebrews:12.15: looking carefully lest anyone fall short of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up cause trouble, and by this many become defiled; This deals with not allowing the root of bitterness to spring up and ruin things in my heart by contamination and causing trouble and we miss out on God’s grace working for us. That is what He was revealing to me that it springs up from within me.

The scars of the conscience, not the devil so it is self sabotaging and the roots are deep within my soul so cannot be dealt with from a shallow perspective which explains why the enemy convinces us so easily that we have made the change and their is nothing to worry about hence preventing us from dealing with the truth of the scars and they just work clockwise and keep tripping us up.

Well today the Holy Spirit has given me the truth on how to deal with the scars and uproot its potency from the conscience and empower us to serve the Lord and not the dead works of sin which produces another cycle of death and loss. He pointed out to me that blessings are what should overtake the disciple of Jesus not sin. So today be open to the Holy Spirit and deal with the hurts and be real with the Lord about how you really feel about those painful things that brought you to that place.

Remember He already knows what you feel but wants you to recognise and acknowledge it yourself and turn from it as you receive forgiveness and a cleansing from those dead works by the blood of Jesus already poured out for you, that position you to serve the Lord which is what Jesus came to enable us to do. Jesus came to deliver us from our enemies and the power of those who hate us so that we could serve Him without fear in holiness and righteousness all the days of our lives. Luke:1.71,74 &75.

Now in reality it is much easier to deal with the outside enemies, but the enemies within us are the ones that trip us up because we don’t want to believe we are capable of evil and what our own heart is capable of, but the truth is our heart is also desperately wicked and deceitful above all things and who can know it except God who reveals it’s intents and purposes.

We really can begin to enjoy full freedom once we know how wicked we are and helpless in ourselves to change it and our total need and dependence on the Lord to free us and lead us out to triumph.

My heartfelt prayer for you today is that you will embrace these truths and allow the Holy Spirit the opportunity to help you uproot the scars and heal you so you stop self sabotaging your life and progress after giving the Lord your time and energy in seeking Him only to miss out on the best He has for you because of this issue.

May the Good Hand of the Lord be with you today in Jesus Name and may the grace to bring your total freedom emerge as all God’s goodness flows towards you in Jesus Name. Amen.

The Word Of The Lord For The 14/02/2024. From Emile Luke.

The Holy Spirit asked me a question in our time this morning that challenged me. He said do I really believe what Proverbs:8.19 says about the value of wisdom? I was stunned, but realized that the Holy Spirit wants us to deal with any residue of doubt or unbelief hiding in our hearts.

This is to ensure we are fully in union with what the Lord wants for us and have no objections to His will. What the Holy Spirit imparts has greater worth than gold and treasure, and the increase He brings benefits more than a windfall of income. That is the truth and will be over the grave of every lie.

Now when the Holy Spirit asks such questions I know from experience that it’s not because He does not know the answer to the question but is working to get me to relook at my perspective and regain my priorities and come back to truth. This strengthens my resolve and the true pursuit of what matters in real terms to propel me forward and keep me in the God flow of life.

Now, many events have happened in and around my life where it has seemed that the pursuit of wisdom has not looked like the better option as opportunities to gain gold or more wealth came my way, but God gave no go ahead and I rejected them. They then appeared now to look like I had missed a golden opportunity because they seemed to prosper.

This represents the inner conflict we face after making a righteous decision for the Lord. I responded saying I know that God would never say anything that’s not true to gain my approval, so regardless of how it appears I believe my decision in going after His wisdom is more profitable than the gold and treasure and the increase wisdom brings far outweighs any windfall of income I could have gained to enable me do more in the present situation.

My choice is to believe, accept and continue to follow and pursue after wisdom without any diversion because I know I will reap the fruit it promised regardless of any present or forthcoming incident that might occur.

So today I want to challenge you to look at what you believe about tough decisions you made for God that now you are questioning because results that match that word have not been forthcoming and you almost want to retract your commitment and go back and take the opportunities that came.

Resolve in your heart to hold onto the truth because that is your freedom and the word of the Lord will prove true and enduring in your life and the circumstances will change and God’s promises will be made real in your life and you will rejoice saying Thank God I waited so I have now received what He promised lasting,enduring results.

Have a fruitful and productive day loaded with God’s benefits in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

The Word Of The Lord For The 13/02/2024. From Emile Luke.

The Holy Spirit says this morning how are you guarding your life? He pointed out to me that most important people and leaders have a plan of security for their lives and will do nothing without having put in place the security measures necessary to protect the leaders life.

He said however that we as believers do not consider the necessary guards for our lives but live carelessly taking notice of nothing and wonder why we are constantly hit by the enemy and are having to employ drastic measures just to get back our connection with the Lord.

The Holy Spirit pointed out to me from Proverbs:7.2 that He God gave a clear plan on how our lives should be guarded and what we need in place for this to be executed. Revelation Truth is given us by God to guard our lives first.

He pointed out it puts us in the know on how God views things and what His response will be. That means we have His heart response to events and the gates of hell cannot prevail against any word God has uttered. Now the revelation of the word we must take and use to guard our lives. In other words this revelation becomes the shield over us and acts as our protection from enemy assaults.

The Holy Spirit pointed out that we must confess and meditate upon the revelation till it takes root in us and then take the appropriate action rather than hastily sharing it with others to prove we hear from God. Its primary purpose is our life protection from ensuing danger.

It goes on to say in Proverbs.7:2 that the teaching revealed is as precious as our eyesight.If you do what I say you will live well.Guard your life with my revelation-truth,for my teaching is as precious as your eyesight.

Well we know that blindness means we are always unconscious of present danger because we are unable to see what’s happening and can walk into anything. My eyesight affords me the opportunity to see ahead of me and make whatever adjustments necessary to avoid ensuing danger.

That is what the Holy Spirit pointed out we should do with the revelation He gives to us.It makes us conscious of what is happening and we have foreknowledge of events so we are not taken unaware of the schemes of the enemy.

The Holy Spirit reminded me of Pharaoh’s dreams that were revealing the future events of years to come, but said only Joseph’s interpretation of those dreams and the actions he took to store up provision ahead of time meant that when the famine after seven great years of plenty past there was food, and people would not be swallowed up by the severity of the famine which ate up seven years of plenty in a year with six more devastation to come.

That’s what the Holy Spirit pointed out: that revelation truth is to be for us a shield for the future life and that in its fullest measure God has given us in spite of what happens on the earth and which government is ruling presently. We are under the Shadow of the Most High and will be protected.

So repent today of handling revelation truth lightly and carelessly and turn back to honoring this precious gift by using it to fortify and guard your life and watch how well your life will run free of shame and disgrace. Have a blessed day wrapped in the arms of the Holy Spirit and all His benefits for you in Jesus Name. Amen

The Word Of The Lord For The 12/02/2024. From Emile Luke.

The Holy Spirit asks you today whose advice are you filling your heart with? Your Parents, your Pastor , Your Husband, Your Boss, Your Family, or your opinions or consensus views where you live. You need to take stock of what advice your heart is filled with because that will determine the path you choose to walk in life.

Whose advice are you making your decisions on and what value are you placing on that advice that compels you to act on it as this is vital to your forward movement. Whose thoughts are you musing on and chewing on daily in your heart that make you do their will. The Holy Spirit spoke to me that we are meditating far too much on what happens rather than on what God said and we are filled with negative thoughts rather than God’s opinion of us.

What does it really matter what people say or speak about us? What bearing does that have on us in real terms? 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 starve our heart of human opinions and thoughts. I needed to up my confessions of His words to me to override and overtake the negative words and vibes that are constantly seeking to gain my attention and added commentary.

The Holy Spirit said that I need to keep a watch on what I comment on as that is where we make foolish commitments and ruin our path with idle words that have no basis. 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.

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

We need to stop relying on others’ opinions and thoughts about us and trust the voice of the Holy Spirit to us as the final word. You know I am so thankful to the Holy Spirit for continuing to bring and teach truth that results in freedom and liberty each and every day and I pray 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 and let your heart be saturated with the life, His words bring over you and watch the stark difference you will experience after doing this and then purpose to make this your daily routine which you cannot miss 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.
