The Word Of The Lord For The 25/01/2024. From Emile Luke.

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

However the Holy Spirit wants you armed with grace to be steadfast and immovable and refusing to give ground through these words so you go on to walk in and partake of your divine inheritance and glorify the name of the Lord in your life. Allow the Spirit of wisdom to navigate and direct you and be found in Him not your natural and fleshly wisdom so triumph will be your outcome in Jesus name.

The Holy Spirit spoke to me today about understanding wisdom and its importance in our daily lives. The Spirit of Wisdom is a Person and the word of Wisdom is a single word from the Person of Wisdom and that is why Paul spent time praying that we be filled with the Spirit of Wisdom and the knowledge of God’s will in everything.

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

In our time today the Holy Spirit showed me from Proverbs:27.11 My son, when you walk in wisdom, My heart is filled with gladness, for the way you live is proof that I’ve not taught you in vain. That we need to walk in Wisdom is vital to living. Wisdom in Himself is an entity we must walk in, which alludes to the fact that we will need to lose who we are, as we walk in Him and it is His nature and characteristics that begin to permeate our lives and not ours.

Wisdom’s nature is Pure, Peaceable, full of understanding, loving, kind, gentle which points to the fact that if we are walking in Him these should be the fruit we exhibit. We always have checks we can do to test ourselves in how we are walking with God and make it a habit to assess ourselves so we keep short time accounts with God. There is no pride in Wisdom even though He knows all things and can do all things and has answers to all things.

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

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

The Spirit of truth guides us into all truth, the full comprehensive reality of the whole truth. Satan He reminded me spoke to Jesus the word in his temptations to move Jesus to sin, but Jesus answered back with the truth He heard from His Father which the Holy Spirit spoke to Him. Thou art My beloved Son in whom I am well pleased that is what you should walk in not the question if you are the son of God.

Jesus knew the voice of His Father and was not going to let questions on the integrity of the voice of His Father shift Him from position. This is why the Holy Spirit pointed out the importance of walking in Wisdom so we are lost in the Nature of God and can’t be seen. This is so that God is the Person revealed through us and that pleases Him as it did with Jesus. The Spirit of Wisdom is the answer which no one can thwart.

When walking in Wisdom we don’t have to pretend to be, but we just are, as our weakness is swallowed up in His Strength and that’s where we should always want to be and walk in.

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

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

The Word Of The Lord For The 22/01/2024. From Emile Luke.

In my communion time with the Holy Spirit this morning He reminded me of some of the key things in my relationship with Him that continue to guarantee triumph in life because I choose to walk in those realities and directed me to share this word with you this morning as you progress through this new year in which there will be no more defeats, or shame and disgrace but days of glory and grace filled with the miracles, signs and wonders which are the product of a life lived for God.

Allow these words to minister grace to you to come forth triumphant in Jesus name. Amen.

In my relationship with the Lord which has spanned three decades and more the thing that has most impacted me is fellowship with the Holy Spirit. Through His help and inspiration has made my study of scripture, my prayer life and productivity alive.

The input of the Holy Spirit has allowed and enabled me to use the knowledge of God not on my basis but in the way God intended so that bearing fruit and that fruit remaining is my primary object and seeing it happen. In other words having results which is the purpose of having a covenant with God who possesses everything.

It is not how much scripture I know or how well I can present it that matters but what the Lord wants conveyed to His people at each given point that really matters because Jesus came so we could experience life and enjoy it in its fullest measure.

As I have shared previously, the guarding of our hearts is the primary responsibility the Holy Spirit seeks to build in us. This is because no matter what we hear or receive of a word from God our hearts have to process through that word and whatever controls our hearts will determine the eventual result we will have. What God said or a variation He did not say of death which your heart yielded to instead.

When the Lord stresses something we need to do with diligence it is a priority and we cannot be slack in that area because everything is dependent on how diligent we are in that area of our hearts to do what the Lord requires. Now diligence requires constant doing over and over again the same thing daily and it becomes a habit that I consciously do as part of my routine on purpose.

My heart is that important to God for productivity and also to the enemy because he will do anything to get my agreement so he can rob me and ultimately God of achieving something in a time frame of His will on earth. Satan always wants to delay God’s things to help create doubt in God’s people and humans of God’s faithfulness and uses men’s hearts to achieve his evil plans.

The Holy Spirit needs us to protect our hearts and what enters them truth or deception or error which always makes room for satan and his schemes. The Holy Spirit or the Spirit of Truth wants to establish truth in our hearts.

Remember it was not theft, or sexual sin or some deep evil thing, sin that got Eve to eat the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil but the lie that she would become smart and have the ability to know more about life. She already knew everything because God had said it but the spin of new knowledge and fresh revelation that God was seemingly hiding from her, caused her to give her heart to a lie and what a fall and loss and disappointment.

Now this is why we now as disciples of Jesus need to guard our hearts diligently so we do not fall after the same lies in our heart that rob us of God’s best. Submit your heart to be filled with the knowledge of God, refuse your heart to entertain doubt and unbelief about anything God says.

Train your heart to listen carefully to What God says and then only say what the word of God says and when you miss it in saying repent and turn back to saying what God says. That will reverse the negative process. It will convince you to be more diligent when you see the length to which he will go to get your heart.

You will need to do this over and over again. Through it you will see how diligent satan is to stop you and that should spur you on to keep guarding your heart in what you think, say and feed it with, throughout each day.

When you feel you have arrived at doing it continue don’t relax and take a break from guarding your heart, you cannot afford that luxury you must keep going as guarding your heart is for a lifetime not a month or even a year and you have graduated and have arrived and can have a breather from exhaustion.

You will need it for life as you will discover that satan will not let up on his pursuit for control of your heart because that is what he can and does run on your failures to keep your heart and uses your power taken by deception to control you and keep you in bondage as a slave to his dictates. Now you will miss it but the key is to be quick to repent and turn and get back to doing it.

The Holy Spirit will help you because He needs you for the Lord’s will to be done on earth as it is in heaven. He knows your weaknesses better than you do but can and will provide the strength you need to overcome them and be triumphant.

He is the best Teacher you will ever have in life and will comfort and help you till you make it. So today determine in your heart for He needs your agreement to work for and in you, He will never violate your heart, He requires your consent and then will work with you and empower you to cooperate with Him to achieve the will of Jesus for your life.

The Holy Spirit is the Perfect Gentleman. Commit your heart to diligently guard it so it will bear the fruit and that more abundantly that Jesus wants and desires it for you to have to glorify His name in all the earth. Have a new start up loaded in the vigor of the Holy Spirit and let your open heart in Him propel you to bring forth fruit for the Kingdom today in Jesus Name. Amen.

The Word Of The Lord For The 21/01/2024. From Emile Luke.

The Holy Spirit reminded me this morning in my communion time of a truth He shared with me many years ago that transformed my walk with the Lord and made me receive the benefits and many physical things in my personal life as I put them into practice. He wants me to share these with you today to establish a foundation of truth in you as to how you should position yourself for the manifestation of the Lord’s goodness in your lives.

Have this truth as the centre of your life in the Spirit. God wants you to experience everything His word has promised you on earth. No good thing does the Lord withhold from those who fear and reverence Him. A foundational truth is what you can build upon with more truth and be certain that it will not fall because it is founded on the Rock Jesus Christ Himself.

The question then is why do we keep coming short of what has been promised and what can we do to position ourselves daily for what the Lord promised. In 1 Peter:1.13-19 which says Therefore gird up the loins of your mind, be sober, and rest your hope fully upon the grace that is to be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ; 14 as obedient children, not conforming yourselves to the former lusts, as in your ignorance; 15 but as He who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct, 16 because it is written, “Be holy, for I am holy.

”Now to gird up the loins of my mind means preparation to reproduce what is in you and be sober which indicates in my best faculties free from anything intoxicating that could possibly affect my true judgements.

The Apostle Paul mentions girding up your waist with truth in Ephesians:6.14 as the basis on wearing the whole armor of God because without the girding the your reproductive mind with truth, error and deception will always be what you reproduce regardless of what you even think you believe and have confessed continually. Without the loins girded with truth the whole armor does not work because the foundation of the Lord is truth and the helper of God for us is the Spirit of Truth who guides us into all truth.

Now presumption that is [action on our own estimation of truth] is not truth as an example Joshua had spies check out Ai before they attacked it and he acted on the basis of what the spies said would be required to take that territory and they came back defeated because although Joshua had faith that God could do anything, He was girded with presumption and paid the price for it with the death of God’s people.

On the other hand Moses in the same position took no action on what the spies said they had found out even though Joshua and Caleb had said we can go up at once and take them down. That was their view God had not given the order and it is presumption to act outside Him speaking.

That situation was going to require the whole army and Israel to be involved to accomplish not a few men. Just goes to show how far our thoughts are from God’s. Moses remember said if You God are not going up with us I am not moving an inch unless under an order from the Lord.

We need to gird our minds and be ready to take action on what the Lord reveals and rest our hope fully on the grace that will be imparted to us to accomplish the God-breathed task. You would have noted that every time I give a word I instruct you to yield to the grace released in that word for that is where the supernatural ability to take God action lies.

We cannot take action in the flesh and expect it to work so we need to rely on the Holy Spirit, the giver of grace to supply the grace necessary for us to do the God thing. I have no power in myself and am totally reliant on the Holy Spirit and what He says because He will bring it to pass if he gave it.

I realized many years ago that no matter the faith I had the hope needed to be imparted by the Holy Spirit for the realization of the God result as was evident in Genesis:1 when God spoke only after the Holy Spirit was hovering over the darkness and things came into reality from that moment onwards was what I needed to experience results in God. Jesus Himself only began manifesting the miracles after He returned in the Power of the Holy Spirit as His mind was girded with the truth and in position rested in the hope to speak at the direction of the Holy Spirit who then manifests the action.

John:5.30 reminds us that Jesus said I can do nothing outside my Father. So Jesus needed His mind girded with truth before He spoke. He pointed out to the jews in John:8.26 I have many things to say and to judge concerning you, but He who sent Me is true; and I speak to the world those things which I heard from Him.”In other words I can judge most of what you say and do but I only speak as I am girded by the Holy Spirit what My Father wants said not my discretion or feelings on the matter.

That is maturity speaking what God wants regardless of what I feel about the situation. Moses allowed anger not dealt with in God’s Presence rob him of his reward because he answered from his anger when the Lord wanted him to be girded with the word to speak to the rock, and not respond in anger to the behavior of the Israelites and strike the rock twice and not honor God before them. It is more important to obey God than address men’s complaints.

So Gird yourselves today with this truth and the grace supplied through it and rest your mind and heart fully on the revelation the Holy Spirit will provide to accomplish the will of God through you and remain committed to following through in the grace the Holy Spirit supplies continuously rather than what you think and see how different your results will be when the Holy Spirit is leading things and you are following girded up in Him alone and resting in the grace He supplies.

Have a God filled day walking in this truth and see how free you will be as you operate in the Spirit rather than presumption.

David learnt the hard way about presumption and called it sin in Psalm:19.13 Keep back Your servant also from presumptuous sins; Let them not have dominion over me.Then I shall be blameless, And I shall be innocent of great transgression.

Presumption can have dominion over me and run my life outside God’s will if I allow it or just act it out and I am found to be in blame and have no leg to stand on. David learnt the woes of presumptuous sins and made enquiry of the Lord his mission as King and God said of him a man after My heart. May that be your story that you seek, hear, then gird yourself and obey only what the Lord wants and see how fruitful and productive your life will be daily in Jesus Name. Amen.

The Word Of The Lord For The 20/01/2024. From Emile Luke.

This morning the Holy Spirit spoke to me in my communion time with Him about walking in the full scope of His love working within my heart so that the limitless love of Jesus would exude through me for people to see and know exactly who God is.

It is pretty amazing what the Lord has in store for us in this season of life and we need to zero in on His timetable and not allow the distractions of buffeting and trials and temptations to occupy our time and energy but focus our energy and time of making sure we are walking in step with the Holy Spirit to lay hold of God’s ordained plan for us.

In Ephesians.3:16 it reads And I pray that He would unveil within you the unlimited riches of His glory and favor until supernatural strength floods your innermost being with His divine might and explosive power.

In this prayer Paul is attempting to convey in his request to God the full scope of what he has experienced in the Spirit and ask that these believers in Ephesus and now us today would also be able to experience the riches of the magnitude of God’s power on earth working from within their hearts and explode in the lives of those they will go on to teach.

Now the Holy Spirit had me study these prayers of Paul for years and then pray them daily for years which I still do and now a whole new dimension of the scope of the limitless dimension of the power of God that is available to flow out of my life in this time to help and show people just how awesome and mighty our God is towards us who choose His name.

The Holy Spirit pointed out that when Paul asked for an unveiling of the unlimited riches of God’s glory and favor it indicates that whatever hitherto that was making it impossible to see into that realm of the Spirit has been lifted and the scales that blocked access to that revelation has been removed and we can now clearly see and lay hold of the necessary information and revelation necessary to experience that truth and live it out in our daily lives is now manifest and we can experience it.

In Isaiah.25:7-8 it says And He will destroy on this mountain The surface of the covering cast over all people, And the veil that is spread over all nations.8 He will swallow up death forever, And the Lord God will wipe away tears from all faces;The rebuke of His people He will take away from all the earth; For the Lord has spoken.

This is the opening that Paul is requesting that God should open up to His loved disciples and remove the scales the enemy has used to keep us unable to benefit from the riches in glory from heaven to earth which the Holy Spirit wants us to live,walk and breathe in on a daily basis.

The Holy Spirit pointed out clearly to me that the enemy has used the fear of death to hold us subject to bondage in life under siege because death threatens us to take us out and we back off pursuit only in order to stay alive under threat, when Jesus rather says do not fear death but challenge it and love not your lives unto death and you will live because He Jesus is the resurrection and life and as such would raise us from every death, grave, prison or dungeon and give us life and that in its fullest measure any and all the time we request and need it.

Can you believe that reality ? If you say yes all things will become possible to you because you believe God can and will do what He said.

Throw off the death shroud and grave energy being spouted out at you to limit your advance and lay hold of the unlimited riches of God’s glory and favor towards you and let your heart explode with the supernatural energy and strength of divine Might and explosive power of the Holy Spirit from within your heart. Yes your life will reflect the awesomeness of God Almighty in an earthen vessel to the glory of His wonderful name and total shame to the enemy.

You know when floods happen it is completely different from normal weather conditions, you experience torrents of unending water at high speeds and ferocity which seem it would not end so be ready to experience far beyond the normal and expect to move with the urgency of the Holy Spirit as it was on the day of Pentecost.

A sudden outburst of power that changed years of oppression and bondage and brought such swift healing and change that men became different in moments and righteous and Holy living for God from that time forth.

May these words in this prayer be the reality you experience as the grace comes through to you embedded in them as you turn back to the Lord in total repentance for not believing and total surrender for His will to be accomplished in your life in the now in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Take note this is only phase one of this prayer being answered. There is still much to come.

The Word Of The Lord For The 19/01/2024. From Emile Luke.

This morning in my communion time with the Holy Spirit He spoke to me from Proverbs.19:21 which reads :A person may have many ideas concerning God’s plan for his life, but only the designs of God’s purpose will succeed in the end.

Now the Holy Spirit pointed out to me that the most important thing in our lives is to walk in the designs and blueprint the Lord has for our lives rather than our interpretation of what we think God intends for our lives. He went on to explain further with many examples of what His people assumed was His plan for their lives but which was influenced by family and other prevailing circumstances at the time which skewed the intent of the Lord for their lives.

I will now share one of the examples the Holy Spirit pointed out to me so you can avoid these pits and save yourself much pain and the delay of unnecessary detours and winding paths.

Let us look at the life of Joseph who received two dreams from the Lord about his destiny in Genesis.37:5-11 Now Joseph had a dream, and he told it to his brothers; and they hated him even more. 6 So he said to them, “Please hear this dream which I have dreamed: 7 There we were, binding sheaves in the field. Then behold, my sheaf arose and also stood upright; and indeed your sheaves stood all around and bowed down to my sheaf.”8 And his brothers said to him, “Shall you indeed reign over us? Or shall you indeed have dominion over us?” So they hated him even more for his dreams and for his words.9 Then he dreamed still another dream and told it to his brothers, and said, “Look, I have dreamed another dream. And this time, the sun, the moon, and the eleven stars bowed down to me.”10 So he told it to his father and his brothers; and his father rebuked him and said to him, “What is this dream that you have dreamed? Shall your mother and I and your brothers indeed come to bow down to the earth before you?” 11 And his brothers envied him, but his father kept the matter in mind.

Keep in mind the word from Proverbs.19 about having many ideas about God’s plan for your life. You will notice that both Joseph’s brothers and his dad Jacob had their own thoughts about God’s plan for Joseph. Both were wrong because God was not limited to their household and was pointing to Joseph ruling over Egypt and a famine which he would have the God solution for that would save millions of peoples lives.

However their narrow interpretation was intended to thwart the purpose of God over nations. We need to be careful not to allow the present situation in our lives to govern the future God has planned for us to reach Nations for Jesus with a narrow view of the Lord’s ultimate design and manuscript for our lives.

The process God used to bring Joseph into Egypt was therefore painful for them as a family and Joseph personally.

However in the end it brought the plan of God into reality as Joseph pointed out to his brothers in Genesis.45:5-9 But now, do not therefore be grieved or angry with yourselves because you sold me here; for God sent me before you to preserve life. 6 For these two years the famine has been in the land, and there are still five years in which there will be neither plowing nor harvesting. 7 And God sent me before you to preserve a posterity for you in the earth, and to save your lives by a great deliverance. 8 So now it was not you who sent me here, but God; and He has made me a father to Pharaoh, and lord of all his house, and a ruler throughout all the land of Egypt. 9 “Hurry and go up to my father, and say to him, ‘Thus says your son Joseph: “God has made me lord of all Egypt; come down to me, do not tarry.

Now see the difference between man’s interpretation of events God had spoken and God’s intention. There is a wide gap between our thoughts and God’s thoughts and this is why we need to cast down our thoughts and imaginations and receive God’s thoughts for us. I certainly prefer what God planned, which was a future, a hope and an expected end of glory for the whole family, not a split with brother killing brother as was with Cain and Abel which is satan’s plan, but lives being saved and restored to the glory God intended for them without jealousy and unnecessary competition.

My prayer for you today as you hear these words is that you will find the grace necessary to move you from the vain thoughts you have walked in concerning the will of God for your lives and be found in the centre of God’s plan and design for you where your life becomes the agency for the restoration of lives back to God and the healing of lives which will bring glory to the name of Jesus and advance His Kingdom on earth of which there is no end.

May you also be healed of all the trauma of the misses and detours of destiny you have walked through which have worked to sear your conscience and harden your heart towards the Lord and leave you desolate.

May great grace be apportioned to you to make up the difference and bring you to the expected end the Lord planned for you from the beginning which will astound both you and your enemies and glorify your Father in heaven here on earth as your life bears much fruit that remains in Jesus name. Amen.

The Word Of The Lord For The 16/01/2024. From Emile Luke.

This morning in my communion time with the Holy Spirit spent it bringing my soul in a place of repentance and surrender to the Lord on matters that have not been completely resolved with situations from past relationships where the Lord had pointed out to move on at the time but now wants to remove all accusation the enemy is seeking to use to hinder the flow of blessing from the Lord.

He then reminded me to share this word with you to help you as you process moving forward in this year into your inheritance by addressing these matters and extricating yourselves from all accusations that are being used by satan to rob you of time by putting up delays and detours which are set to confuse and hinder your forward movement and progress. Let grace be supplied to you as you yield to the correction of the Holy Spirit and walk completely free of any corruption of the past in Jesus name. Amen.

I have found that the Holy Spirit loves to correct us through edifying words rather than words of condemnation. I noticed that Jesus always used parables to correct people’s mindsets and thought patterns so that, through those words, they could identify their errors and make the necessary adjustments and find the way of repentance to come back to the relationship with the Lord. The Lord is always more interested in us moving forward than dwelling on the past particularly when the lessons have been learnt through the words of correction we submit to.

The Holy Spirit always wants us to know our heart and the things that make us do what we do. In other words He wants us to know what motivates us and why we yield to what we yield to because when we own our mistakes and make the right corrections on them, we are truly free because we know the truth and since it is the truth we know that makes us free we will be free indeed. Owning the truth.

So I will share today a situation with you in the bible where a refusal to deal with the truth cost a God servant to lose out on God’s best because he refused to own the truth and make the necessary adjustments that could have changed the course of his and his family’s life.

The Holy Spirit wants me to bring to the table the life of King Jehoshaphat. In 2 chronicles.19:1-3 we read of a warning given to him by a seer after he goes on a battle with king Ahab who the Lord describes as a wicked hater of God whom you helped and for that reason the wrath of God is against you.

In other words God points out that you have done wrong and wrath is set against you because you came into agreement with a wicked evil doer, hater of God so repent and turn which he doesn’t do because kind words of the other good he has done cause him to not feel the need to make the adjustment because his good was acknowledged.

Remember: Never fall into that trap regardless of what good you have done. God tests the intent and purpose of your hearts and that will determine your end results on that. He goes on to ignore the warning and that wrath begins stirring up in his house.

In 2 chronicles.20:35-37 Again He allies with those God describes as haters of God Ahab’s son now and God destroys his works using a prophet to speak to him about this trend of working and allying with enemies from God’s perspective. In 2 chronicles.21:4 we see that wrath of God manifested when his son as King, having replaced him, kill his brothers after how honorably Jehoshaphat had shared their inheritance before he died in 2 chronicles.21:3. It will benefit you to read all the accounts in these chapters of 2 Chronicles.20&21 and 1 Kings.15-22 to have the fuller picture.

What the Holy Spirit wants made clear is that our thoughts on things and relationships is not what determines outcomes but what God says and our willingness to change with His perspective that will determine our end result. How does a man who walked that level of righteousness have a family where brother kills brother and Ahab who did such wickedness have a family where brothers help one another and live on until the Lord steps in to destroy them?

Because of intermingling with wickedness and refusing to repent and change when warned, the conclusion of a righteous man is death and destruction for him and his family when the reward for righteousness is deliverance from death. This is exactly what balaam suggested to Balak would bring down Israel if they intermingle they can and will be reduced to nothing.

May you selah on this reality and make the decision to follow and obey the dictates of the Holy Spirit regardless of what you see or perceive from natural events and heed and make and take decisive action to repent and turn from error when the Lord speaks this to you and quit the excuses that they are brethren and I have to support them.

I pray that today that from seeing the reality of truth from these words you will find the grace from the Holy Spirit necessary to protect you and guide you to walk circumspectly so that you do not lose out on your reward because of ignorance in your helping of those you are not to help, because they petition you and seem to need you and, you side evil and compromise your own heritage and the ensuing rewards that are tied with it and end up on the losing side. May that never be your portion in Jesus’ name. Amen.

I conclude with this word from 2 John.8 Look to yourselves, that we do not lose those things we worked for, but that we may receive a full reward. Let that be your portion for serving the Living God in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Word Of The Lord For The 17/01/2024. From Emile Luke.

In my communion time with the Holy Spirit this morning He spoke to me from Proverbs.17:3 which reads these words :In the same way that gold and silver are refined by fire,the Lord purifies your heart by the tests and trials of life.

Now the Holy Spirit firstly pointed out to me how He views our heart actions and decisions looking at the source from which we choose to take action. When we respond in the flesh we have chosen to side with the devil.

This is because we have yielded to the heart of man which according to Jeremiah.17:9 &10 :“The heart is deceitful above all things, And desperately wicked;

Who can know it? 10 I, the Lord, search the heartI test the mind, Even to give every man according to his ways, According to the fruit of his doings.

Satan is the father of deceit and once we respond to deceit which the human heart loves we become subject to him and are in alliance with his thoughts and intentions which always bring destruction, though they promise you quick elevation and instant gratification for now which are lies. Remember the end of the flesh transaction is absolutely nothing, no profit.

We must be aware, vigilant and conscious of how we respond with our hearts hence the warning of the Lord to guard our hearts with all diligence in Proverbs.4:23 because from it flows our life consequences whether good or bad. The Holy Spirit then reminded me that He came to give us a new heart. That is the heart of Christ to enable us overcome the evil human heart which is subject to satan.

2 Corinthians.5:17 which reads :Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new. The Lord has given us a new heart and the old heart has passed away so we must not then resort to the old wineskin/heart for advice, but yield to the new heart which is Christ in us the hope of glory not shame and disgrace.

When we ask the Holy Spirit how to respond rather than just quickly responding from our carnal minds we are able to act on what thus saith the Lord rather than our futile thoughts which bring death.

As Jesus mentioned in John.6:63 It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life. Words the Holy Spirit speaks to you always bring life because they flow from the Lord who is life and resurrection life.

The Holy Spirit always raises the dead and calls things, that is non-existent things into existence so Jesus’s name is glorified. This is why we need to respond quickly to the voice of the Holy Spirit so we live the life God intended and purposed for us. Choose to refrain from responding according to how your heart feels about situations and submit to the grace the Holy Spirit supplies to you so you bring life everywhere you go.

I am reminded of the times I chose not to respond on matters that were demanding me to burst out in anger and bitterness which would have given satan legal rights to disqualify me from my portion of blessing in that season.

Let me also point out to you clearly that satan comes at the most vital and auspicious time with these provoking situations which seems to provide you the legitimacy to respond in the flesh. You will need to summon strength from within not to respond immediately but to yield to the peace the Holy Spirit makes available to you in that moment.

You need to train your heart not to explode because of circumstances that rile you to anger and find peace in the Holy Spirit and allow Him to respond through you. The Holy Spirit will always be there to help you but you must respond to Him by giving Him your heart and soul to have full control of you in these pressure moments.

My prayer for you this morning is that through these words you will receive the grace to overcome the weakness of your human heart and embrace the heart of the Holy Spirit and respond according to His dictates when you come under pressure to give in to the old dead man you were before.

Let the Holy Spirit come through you victoriously and put to shame the enemy who sought to rob you of this season of profit and benefits because you fell from grace. Let all that Jesus apportioned to you come to you this year and let your life reflect the glory of the Kingdom of Jesus in the manifestation of signs, wonders and miracles that demonstrate that Jesus is with you to the glory of His wonderful name. Amen.

The Word Of The Lord For The 18/01/2024. From Emile Luke

This morning in my communion time with the Holy Spirit He reminded me to take time and go back to look and study through all the words He has given me over mornings each month and chart through the themes He has given for each month and listen for the instructions given so I am in step with what He has ordained for me to walk in.

It is truly remarkable to do this as each truth becomes much bigger and widens my discernment and understanding of the times to know how to walk in the ways of triumph the Holy Spirit had initiated many months ago which are absolutely relevant and necessary at this present time to achieve the triumph the Lord had planned and purposed for me.

May you as you hear these words find grace to position you into the necessary place and mindset that will cause you to triumph and be in the Bullseye of the will of Jesus for your lives in this year in Jesus name. Amen.

Today the Holy Spirit wants you to look at the things you need to stand against and never let rule or have dominion over you. There are facts of life that Jesus has paid for on your behalf that you have no business allowing them to rob you or threaten you or keep you in bondage by allowing them the right to master it over you. The Holy Spirit points out that there are things you must not allow to overcome you and suffer which Jesus has paid the price to free you from.

Let us look at 1 John.3:8 Which says 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. Now these words, to us, make us understand without a doubt the purpose of Jesus for our lives versus the purpose of satan against us.

Sin was initiated in man by satan when Adam submitted to the lie in the garden of eden and ate of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil and since that time sin has been the dominant force against man run by satan to keep us bound and controlled by his wicked twisted heart.

Jesus though, which is what John wants us to know as a fact of life, not a promise we are hoping will come to pass in the future, is that the purpose of Jesus being manifested was to destroy the works of the devil or satan. What are the works of the devil that Jesus went about destroying?

“These are the things the Holy Spirit said we must not allow to rule or have a place in our lives because Jesus has already destroyed them and rendered them impotent against us.”

“Jesus on purpose went after the works of the devil and destroyed them so how can He who destroyed the work of satan then permit it on His beloved ones which we sometimes foolishly believe and accept when satan hits us with sickness, disease or any form of bondage and oppression.”

Just look at what Peter said in Acts.10:38 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. Look at the purpose and intent of Jesus in life He went about doing good not evil and healing all who were oppressed by the devil.

“This clearly shows us that oppression is caused and initiated by the devil not God so for that reason I need to refuse to accept any form of oppression in my life no matter how it manifests itself. “

“This is because Jesus went around showing by example that He had the power to destroy all forms of oppression set by the devil and free man from its control and that remains His legacy, policy and immutable counsel which we inherit as His followers.”

I recall the first day when I realized that sickness had no power over me and this truth that I am free from oppression became a reality in my life.

I had a headache and the Holy Spirit prompted me to tell it to leave my body as it had no right to oppress me, so I went on to rebuke it in Jesus name and it left me instantly and then tried to resurface again some minutes later as if to play with my mind as to whether it had really left, but again thanks to the Holy Spirit’s help He said speak to it that has no rights to trespass on my body and that settled that matter.

I have walked free of sickness and disease from then to now and rebuke any symptoms that seek to arise and refuse them the right to trespass on my body which is the temple of the Holy Spirit.

The Holy Spirit then took time to teach me how to deal with the contests that would emerge against my trust of God and question His authority over my life. Psalm.2 became the reality in my life to deal with what raged against my relationship with God and because it was a prophecy which Peter alluded to in Acts.4 when they prayed of how people with differences came together to stop and destroy the work of Jesus was fulfilled. I knew that such alliances would come together against me to stop the anointing in my life.

This understanding the Holy Spirit gave me enabled me to deal with all the schemes and strategies satan raised against me and taught me that Jesus wants us strong and of good courage and well able to stand our ground and take territory on His behalf.

The anointing was given to make us always triumph, barrier breakers, world overcomers, burden removers ,yoke destroyers who manifest God and His name on a daily persistent basis that prove that God rules in the affairs of men on earth.

“We are never to allow passivity to have a place in our lives as it is a sign of backsliding.” We are always to be forward moving, pressing into what God has in store ahead for us not behind us. The Lord wants us to be overcomers no matter what the situation is. In the book of Revelation Jesus speaks to seven churches and to each one with their different obstacles He still tells them you must overcome to get to the next level or position of authority.

You would have noticed from all my posts the Holy Spirit gives me. The Holy Spirit always requires you to do something to get you back active in God . Every instruction of the Holy Spirit is to get you back engaged in action to take more and get into movement that brings greater results.

So today as you have heard these words let the grace that comes with them have the place of victory in you and permeate your whole being to action to disallow any work of the devil from having any place or portion in your life any longer.

As it says of Paul and Barnabas they grew bold in Acts.13:46 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.

No more pandering morbidly around complaining at the oppression you are facing or suffering, but boldly saying you are leaving now as I will not tolerate you anymore hurting and harming me.

I rise up in the triumph Jesus has made available to me and resist all forms of oppression from the devil and move into the life of being free of the law of sin and death. I choose to walk in the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus that sets me free from the Law of sin and death. Oppression of the devil leave my presence now in Jesus name and never come back as I will not allow you place anymore to hurt me in Jesus name.

Watch how that oppression will diminish and become nothing before you as you take your stand in what Jesus did for you to experience and enjoy in life through His suffering on your behalf so you do not have to suffer it anymore.

Receive this word with your whole heart and don’t let it go of it no matter what tries to challenge it ,but remain steadfast and immovable in its reality and you will experience freedom of the highest order that puts you in the glory zone that God purposed for you to walk in in Jesus name. Amen.

The Word Of The Lord For The 12/01/2024. From Emile Luke.

In my communion time with the Holy Spirit this morning the Holy Spirit spoke to me today about the importance of choosing to be cheerful regardless of the situation you find yourself in. We need to make the choice to be cheerful and the Holy Spirit will then give us the grace to walk in it. This is the first thing we need to do: make the choice which means we commit to the way of the Lord.

“Now first of all no situation should determine how you respond and react to what happens because life events are never to be the determinants of your conduct.”

“Spiritual maturity is birthed when no natural event affects the way you respond in any given situation no matter its impact on you.”

The Holy Spirit reminded me of the Apostle Paul on his journey to Rome in the book of Acts.27 & 28. The circumstances Paul faced were not determined by Paul because, if Paul had the choice of events he would not have proceeded on that journey because his foreknowledge of the events coming through the Holy Spirit would have made him not travel at that time to save himself loss.

I am so thankful for the leading and guidance of the Holy Spirit in our affairs and circumstances in life.

Now as Paul did not choose the events which went on to happen we could say that if he was angry and responded rudely and abusive it would be justifiable because had he been listened to this level of trauma, hurt and loss they faced could have been avoided. Think of it fourteen days pitch black with no sun or moon or stars not knowing when day broke being tossed on the sea in a ship, with that level of wind.

No wonder the people concluded that any hope of making it out was lost and knew death was inevitable.

In that situation we find Paul still cheerful and bubbly, offering a solution to the devastating situation and giving hope that they will come out victorious with no loss of life, but only the ship. Then landed on an Island safely because he had a visitation from an angel of the Lord whom he served faithfully telling him what would go on to happen, even though nothing in the circumstances had changed yet.

Paul chose to remain cheerful and bubbly in that situation regardless of who caused it because his life was not dependent on what had happened but was hidden in Christ Jesus whom he served and only that relationship with Christ was going to affect his life. Since Jesus said Paul will live, that was going to happen and everything was going to line up with that reality.

As the Holy Spirit pointed out to me this morning we need to choose to be cheerful regardless because nothing can separate us from the love of God working for and in us.

“So we have no need to be depressed and worried and upset by anything because we have endless eternal life working on our behalf so we cannot but succeed because our Lord will bring us out triumphant and victorious.”

“Therefore today as you hear these words of truth, submit to the truth and lay down the lie and choose to be cheerful and bubbly again and allow the joy of the Lord to spring up in you afresh and come out of every threatening situation with an outburst of joy unspeakable full of glory.”

“Experience the awesome power of the Most High working for you.”

Rejoice in the Lord and again I say rejoice in the Lord and be consumed in His cheerfulness and say bye bye to sorrow and sighing and watch what the Holy Spirit will do on your behalf that will bring honor and glory to the name of Jesus.

The Word Of The Lord For The 11/01/2024. From Emile Luke.

In my communion time with the Holy Spirit this morning He spoke about aligning to His will so we go on to inherit in this year our destiny and become partakers of the divine nature of God on earth that men can see and glorify His name because we have become symbols and banners of who Jesus is. He wants to show through us the exceeding riches of His grace in Kindness towards us in practical reality to expand His Kingdom on earth. So receive these words today and allow the grace supplied through them to empower to walk in this reality in Jesus name. Amen

The Holy Spirit spoke to me from Proverbs:2.21 which reads For all my godly lovers will enjoy life to the fullest and will inherit their destinies. He reminded me that His purpose in my life is to bring me to the point where I inherit my destiny in this world and experience the good life the Father has prepared for me in its fullest measure. So each day He works with us to position us in a place where we can experience the good works He purposed for us to do and partake of God’s Divine nature.

He reminded me that in 1 Peter:1.4-5 that we have been born again into an inheritance that is incorruptible, undefiled and that never fades away, that is reserved for us in heaven who are kept by our trusting, for a deliverance ready to be revealed.

Now the Holy Spirit was preparing my heart to lay hold of every benefit He has in store for me today and was reminding me that my inheritance, destiny in Him is not subject to anybody or thing on earth and it cannot be corrupted or be defiled and never fades into insignificance. It remains protected in God and I can apply for the deliverance reserved for me that is available to lay hold of it in the now from the Throne of grace.

That is why I must pay close attention to what the Holy Spirit guides and leads me to because in Him alone can I go on to reap the inheritance. The Holy Spirit knows exactly where the inheritance is and will guide me to the place of harvest. I need to train my heart to listen to the voice of the Holy Spirit daily so I know what to do. He reminded me of the day in the natural world when I received the inheritance my natural dad left for me. He said who prepared and made that money available to me? Was it work I did?

Certainly not, it is what my dad made available to me from his work that I was now going to enjoy because I was one of his sons and was destined by him to receive my portion of his money set aside for us. Now the Holy Spirit pointed out to me that if this is what a human would do for his children then how much more would He God give us the inheritance He has stored up for us and manifest it in our lives.

Well I got the money and was able to do many things I could not before. What could possibly disqualify me from His promise.That is why we are told that the gifts and callings of God are without repentance.

I can hinder myself so I am out of position to receive my inheritance. I can also go where it is not and miss out but if I follow the Holy Spirit, I can be led back to the path of life where the inheritance is situated and receive it when I claim it in Jesus Name through the help of the Holy Spirit. God will not change His mind so satan has to deceive me to walk out of position to rob me of my right.

As I meditated on that reality I started rehearsing all the words God has given me over the years and started calling in my provision and supply of all I need for my life and Godliness and all resources necessary to accomplish the plan God has for my life to reach the Nations with the message of the Kingdom and raise Ensigns for Him.

I encourage you to take these words and remind yourselves who called and ordained you and the inheritance He has prepared for you and get off the mat of insufficiency and lack and begin to experience the good life God has prepared and arranged for you to have here on earth.

Remember Jesus came that you might have life and life in its fullest measure so go on and experience life. Throw off the accusation of the enemy and say my Heavenly Father who owns all things has left me an inheritance and I am cashing it now and using the proceeds in the now for everything that pertains to my life and godliness,so watch me succeed and flourish and blossom and gain everything my Father destined for me to have in Jesus Name. Amen. Arise and go forward in this might in Jesus Name. Amen.
