This morning in my communion time with the Holy Spirit He reminded me to let you know that you need to stop reacting and making costly decisions on your enemies actions. He wants you to only respond on what thus saith the Holy Spirit because that alone will stand and you can rest your life on the words of the Lord being established.

Ensure that you keep your eyes on Jesus your Shepherd and where He is leading and follow and all will be well. Let these words minister grace to you today as you move forward in Jesus name. Amen.

The Holy Spirit says stop making rash hasty decisions because it proves to your enemies that you are really not trusting the Lord. You don’t have to answer all the questions people ask you and you don’t need to cover up why you are not seeming to have quick answers by doing something rash and hasty just to prove that God is directing you.

The Holy Spirit wants you to remember that when in the wilderness Moses had the people camp in front of the Red Sea which looked rather silly and stupid because they were in a vulnerable place with no way forward seemingly and because God never wants us to retreat or go back it was contrary to wise leading. However Moses just obeyed the Lord and set up camp there as He requested.

He did not need to explain the reason for this ridiculous action and did not need to come up with a rash, hasty decision to cover up for this seeming foolishness in the eyes of the people who were now questioning whether he was hearing from God or had gone wacky.

Well God had a reason for them to be in front of that sea because they were going to go forward and God was intending to do something that had never been done before and that was going to be there new story that would establish their name in history and give them a testimony that up until today has not been matched.

So the Holy Spirit says stop allowing the pressure that things look awkward cause you to take rash decisions and hasty movements that position you outside the will of God because of what people will think or say about you or God.

Stop trying to defend God by doing what you think looks smart and sensible, God has a way beyond you and obedience to wait for Him to speak is what is required of you not premature hasty rash actions which rob you of His Divine intervention which will give you a new glorious testimony.

The Holy Spirit pointed out that which phenomenal miracle in the bible ever happened in perfect conditions from our perspective. None of course as God always shows up to change a narrative and show His own perspective by a miraculous sign.

The Holy Spirit said to me did Peter walk on water in perfect conditions or was there a storm that was blowing, yes I said the storm was raging and yes Peter had not planned that event and looked at it over and over again to make sure he would do the right thing, no it happened at the spur of the moment and Peter acted on an instant instruction and has a testimony no other human has because he responded to Jesus by coming to Him on the water regardless of the conditions present at the time.

Yes it looked rash and hasty to come out of the boat and walk on water but God gave the go ahead, and Peter did not flinch at the order to come considering whether it was possible or would the water hold me up or this has never happened before and all the human reasons that would prevent him from obeying God.

What the Holy Spirit pointed out to me was that all the other 11 disciples could have experienced the identical miracle but they all stayed in the comfort zone of the boat as there safety and not act on the instruction of the Lord to come out into a new realm of glory which He authored and would certainly complete as He did with Peter.

Take the step the Lord says and look silly to man but have the testimony God intends rather than take rash hasty natural actions to convince man you are smart and end up in a ditch somewhere having missed out on God’s best again.

As you hear these words let grace embrace you and propel you to restrain you from taking rash hasty decisions for the eyes of men and empower you to wait even in the most ridiculous position for the Lord and obey His instruction in that situation and have the most glorious testimony that you have ever experienced become a reality in your life today.

Have a new beginning in the Awesomeness of God’s power and might and go forth singing the horse and the rider thrown into the sea and me on the other side in victory with a new story of triumph in Jesus Name. Amen.

In my communion time with the Holy Spirit this morning He reminded me to stir up your hearts again to action in how you choose to think about yourself after much assault and enemy tactics and accusation which is requiring you to lay down and give up the fight saying this year is no different and you can expect the usual so just cave in to the flesh offers of a quick way out.

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

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

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

However the Holy Spirit wants you to know that your thoughts are based on the facts presently before you and the favorable options that look or seem right that will bring you solutions in the now. These thoughts are all superficial and subject to change. They have not considered the spiritual ramifications of such decisions and where those will lead to. Your thoughts have only considered the natural benefits that will be gained from the present offers before you and they appear to be favorable and the best option presently, however the end of them will be disastrous.

He reminded me of the situation of Israel in Babylon when at the time they should be leaving there 70 years to go back and build Israel they are searching vigorously for material to build houses in Persia and are only meeting with blocks and obstacles and wasting money and energy that are going down the drain and no favor or help and the Lord confronts them to look at the bad situation and consider which way forward for them there thoughts or God’s.

Through the prophesying of Haggai, Zechariah and Malachi they choose to change thoughts and perspective and go with God’s thoughts and instantly with that change of thoughts there results change and God even tells them to mark the date of the difference in results that happen to prove that change has happened. No more waste of money, time or physical energy.

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

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

I beseech you to lay aside your thoughts and plans and trust the Lord’s as you receive these words and you will see the all round difference in your life and circumstances in Jesus’ name. Amen.

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

In my communion time this morning the Holy Spirit reminded me of this reality we have in Him when we feel weak and weary and just out of sorts because of continuous attacks from satan and we seem unable to have rest to move forward. Let these words minister greater grace to you today to be propelled into action to move forward in the Lord to see your inheritance manifested this year in Jesus name. Amen.

The Holy Spirit wants me to share a truth with you today that He pointed out to me that keeps you going even after you have been weak and unable to lay hold of a present opportunity and had to pull out. In spending time fellowshipping with the Holy Spirit you will find nuggets of truth that can bring you out of the most difficult places and still find a way out that is triumphant in impact and removes shame and disgrace from your life.

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

This scripture comes on the back of a failure on the part of the Apostle Paul to capitalize on an opportunity of an open door which the Lord had given him in Troas. Paul was always looking for doors into various regions to share the gospel for which Christ had chosen him and it was quite strange to note that on this occasion that after the door had been opened and there were no adversaries that he seemed unable to take it and moved away to go find Titus.

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

I wondered why Paul did not ask the Holy Spirit and get confirmation on what the situation with Titus was and be comforted in the word from the Holy Spirit. He could then have at least spoken to and brought encouragement and edification to people that were ready for his message and given them an opportunity to experience the multifaceted grace in His life which would have had free course because of their willingness .

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

I then said to the Lord how can he then go on and say thanks be to God who always leads us out in triumph and through us spreads the fragrance of God when it appears there has just been a failure on his part. The Holy Spirit then interjected and said. Was Paul led out in triumph on this occasion and I said yes.

“So the Holy Spirit never fails to lead us out in triumph in any given situation, but our action in that situation is what will decide the outcome of whether the fragrance of the knowledge of Him is spread around.”

Paul never spread that fragrance on that occasion so no one could benefit from it.

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

I learnt a very important lesson that day of how important it is for me to always be ready to share what God has given me and not allow any family situation or worry or concern stop me when God opens the opportunity for me to spread His fragrance that my weakness hinders and stops the process.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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 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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
