CARRY THE LIGHT AND PUSH BACK THE DARKNESS
The presence of the Lord is what makes the difference. Without His presence it is all words with no action. His presence gives power to the words. Jesus always spoke into action what He said. He said eyes open and they opened. The gospel that is powerless is useless. You exercise this power when you believe what you say is God inspired. God filled words have the ability to create that for which it was sent. When God said let there be light, light came forth. When God created the worlds He spoke them into being. The word of His power created and put into motion the worlds. You too have power to create as you tap into His presence. His presence is available to all who call on Him. He is present everywhere but most are not aware of Him. You have a personal relationship with Him and when you enter in He comes present. In His presence you now have the power to see and hear Him and then to express His mind to bring heaven to earth. God is at work to demolish the powers of darkness and sin and to bring His light into existence. Therefore enter into His presence and live like a king because He resides in you. No force can stand in His presence and survive because He is Lord of all. The darkness only makes the light brighter and therefore do not fear the darkness. The darker the night, the brighter will be the light. Carry His light and see the darkness pushed back.

TUNING INTO GOD'S AGENDA
God is at work in you and will reveal to you His mind when you need it. The revelation you receive will astound you and you will become renewed. God is working in this world and in His church. You need to tune into what He is doing and do what He is doing. Many are involved in their own projects and including God in it. This is fallacy as doing this is for self glorification rather then for God. God reveals His mind to His people. All His people need to do is do what He is doing. This is what Jesus did. He did what He saw His Father doing. When you do what you see Him doing then you are in His will and doing His Kingdom works. This will take all pressure off you and keep you in the centre of His will. All opposition will melt away as you keep your eyes on Him. All negative thoughts and feelings will come under control as you fix your eyes on Him. Do not entertain those negative thoughts. Know that any negativity is from the pit. God’s thoughts are peace and love and not division and disruption. Even when you disagree you can do so in love. When Jesus called the Pharisees white washed sepulchres He did so in the spirit of love to enable them to see their blindness. In the Spirit you too can overcome. There is no other way to live then in the fullness of the Spirit. In this way you don’t have to fear anyone or anything. All is under His control even your enemies.

REALITY AN ILLUSION OF THE MIND
Remember the days of old when you used to bargain with the Lord for this and that. Now you have grown up and realise that the Lord knows what you need. He gives freely to those who ask and do not doubt. The Lord has made a way where there was no way. He is God and He can make a way when it is required. He has the whole world in His hands and there is nothing too difficult for Him. He is the Lord of the now and the hereafter. The Lord is good and His banner over you is love. When you speak with the authority of the Lord then Satan will withdraw. He comes to your aid when you acknowledge Him as Lord. He is with you and in you to perfect you to be like Jesus. Therefore be strong and do not be afraid for the Lord thy God is with you.The Lord is good and He will bring you through the troubled waters to the place of plenty. All reality is a myth because what is, disappears into the past. The past then is just a memory and there is no reality in that. What is real is just a perception of the now. What is of yesterday and tomorrow is but an illusion. Therefore when you confront reality you realise that it is but an illusion. Live in Him and do not give into those thoughts that try to seduce you to succumb to lust and affections of the flesh. In the Spirit you can rule and reign now.

ONE IN HIM
The Lord is my Shepherd I shall not want. He leads me beside quiet waters. He restores my soul. How lovely are the words that keep me in the centre of His will. He gives me words that delight my heart. I am His and He is mine and His banner over me is love. I love Him and He loves me and we both are one together. I walk with Him and He walks with me. What a fellowship, what a union no man can separate. Human relationships go up and down. However God never changes and He is always available. He is holy and righteous and He never moves or changes His position. When you are in God you too are stable and steady as a rock. He is the Rock of ages, the bright and morning star. How good it is to know Him and be united with Him. I love the Lord and He loves me. I will seek His face daily and His righteousness is mine.

REST IN HIM
Remember the days gone past and how the Lord blessed you and protected you from harm and danger. Today is the day the Lord has made, rejoice and be glad in it. He is your Keeper and your friend. He is the lily of the valley the bright and morning star. In Him you have everything you need to lead a abundant life. In Him all things will come to pass. Trust Him with all your needs. He is your strength and fortress and in Him you have a hiding place. Many do not want change for they are secure in what they know. You want to grow and expand and therefore cannot rest till you see the best. God enables you to dig deep into the recesses of your mind and tap into the deep things of God. God is resident in you therefore you can access Him at anytime. He is your rock and your salvation and in Him you have a refuge that no man can disturb. Come to Him when you are weary and find rest for your soul. All the attacks from the evil one cannot touch you for He is your Protector.

RULE FROM ABOVE
Happy is the man who trusts in the Lord and seeks His face daily. He is a man who knows God and is a friend of God. Such a man will not fear man because the fear of God controls him. Men of old walked with God and looked to God to lead them and guide them. The Holy Spirit is your guide and Master. He indwells you and keeps you in the straight and narrow way. Treat each day as a new day in the Lord and look for miracles. When you look for miracles then miracles will come your way. A miraculous lifestyle is one when you can expect God to infiltrate your world. This world does not know the power of God’s Kingdom. His Kingdom is not of this world. When you operate from heaven then heaven becomes your throne and earth becomes your footstool. This is how Jesus reigns and rules and occupies. The devil does not have a place in the Kingdom of God. He is earth bound and therefore does not have the same power as a heaven bound Christian. He would like to beguile the children of God by blinding them to the fact that God is alive. He would like to make God dead so that he can carry out his works of lies, death and destruction. Cancel those works of darkness in Jesus Name. Come to the throne of God and reign today in righteousness and live.

YOU WILL SEE WHAT YOU BELIEVE
There is power in the Name of Jesus. As you call on His Name for your needs then He sends His spirits to make the way. This is how you operate in the spirit to bring to pass in the flesh what is sown in the spirit. You cannot make it happen. All you can do is pray and believe. Your faith goes into action mode. What is visioned becomes real. What is unseen becomes seen. God spoke His word and the word became flesh. The spoken word became the fleshly word. All form happens in this way. You have a dream and the dream then takes on a life and transforms you and materialises what is dreamt. In this way you operate the way God operates, in spirit. There is no difference in the spirit between the formless and the form. All are one because they come from the same source. God is the source of all things so when you connect with God then you connect with all things of God. The sinner and the saint are both from God. The difference is only in the state. The sinner is in his sinful state while the saint is in his saintly state through the blood of Jesus. As a saint you have direct access to His throne of grace and can ask for anything in Jesus Name. All you need to do is believe you have what you have asked for. The blind man saw when he believed Jesus word and so also the dumb and the deaf. Today it is the same way. When you believe you will see what you believe.

GOD'S VISION
Your mind is the vehicle through which God speaks to you. Therefore clear your mind and make space for him. As you wait in silence He will sow His thoughts into you. These are thoughts which you know are from another source as they switch a light bulb in you. This is the way you know that it is God. Watch for those spontaneous thoughts. Then write them down so that you can then test them against scripture and other ways of testing it including looking for evidence of it in manifestation. When you have asked look for signs to conform as Gideon did with his wool. God loves this for you are putting your faith into action. If it is of God then He will confirm His word with signs. If it is not then it will just fade away. Let your vision take form. This means that there will be evidence for these in responses from others as well as in your inner conviction of the same. It will so possess you that nothing else will matter. God’s vision always possesses because it is a calling from God. This calling is backed by His power. You need power to exercise vision. It becomes your mission and then the dream is realised. There is a process that takes place but as long as you know it is from God then you know that He is with you all the way. In this world you will face opposition to God’s dream. This is good for then your dream will make you strong and able to stand the course. Always keep the vision in front of you and you will never lose sight of it.

MIND POLLUTION
The pollution of your mind is greater then the pollution in the environment. First clean up the pollution within you and you will naturally stop polluting the environment. People are more taken up with issues they can see then the hidden things within them. This is a distraction. Jesus pointed to the pollution of the Pharisees in their hearts while they looked at keeping the law. This is a deception. There is no solution to the internal pollution then the blood of Jesus. The pollution is so thick that many are blind to it. When they see the internal pollution then they will turn in disgust and some kill themselves. This is what it means to see. Most are blind to the internal pollution and see only the behaviour. The behaviour is a sign of the internal state of mind. This is why we need to be transformed by the renewal of our minds. Jesus came with the solution but it is too simple for man to receive. Now that you see it is your responsibility to help others to see. This is the greatest gift you can give another, the free salvation in Jesus. Then they will say I was once blind but now I see. All other ways point to the way but never to the Truth. John the Baptist came as the fore runner to point the way. So also there are many that point to the way not knowing the way themselves but think they do. It is only Jesus who can open the eyes of those born blind. This is what it means to be born again. Your mission is to help others see and be free from the pollution of their souls and their spirits.

TRUST IN THE LORD
Happy is the man who trusts in the Lord and not in man. He who trusts in the Lord will be a strong pillar in the hands of the Lord. He will remain steady when everything else is crumbling around him. His mind is stayed on Him who is unmovable. God is for the man who trusts in Him. All His riches are for him. A man who has the God gene is like a man who will never die. He knows what eternal life is all about. He never fears the wind or the storm for He trusts in the God of the wind and the storm. His trust in the Lord will enable Him to welcome all and he is not biased by his beliefs. God accepts all and all are welcome into His household. The Lord is rich in favour for he has the whole world in His hands. He knows what is good for you and therefore you can praise Him in all things. Just stay refreshed in the Lord and let Him guide you. Your health and wealth are in His hands. There is no room for procrastination. It is time to act now. Now is the day of salvation and whoever calls on His Name will be saved.

WELCOME CHANGE
God is able and it is not clans or human allegiances but God allegiance that will finally determine your destiny. Human organisations are littered with calamities because humans tend to be clannish. This is their survival instinct. Those that are outside the clan have a secondary status. In God’s Kingdom all are invited and His Kingdom does not bar anyone. Clans will one day break down because human frailty is such that the flesh will want its own way always. The flesh will not bow to another because it is fired up by hell itself. No matter how holy a man is, his flesh will always rule him. In the Spirit you can subdue the flesh but even then some biases will never die. God saw this and the evidence was so real in the disciples. Only the Holy Spirit could overcome the differences yet there were times when Paul and others did conflict and go their way. This is the journey you have to face when you relate with humans. Loyalty will go so far and then when the pressures increase there will be division and separation. Welcome difference and do not see it as a challenge but a positive to encourage growth. The sinner in the world will test you. Closeted Christianity will never grow. It becomes inward looking and will die. Always be open to change and do not take it personally. Change will keep you young and vibrant. The majority will conform but the majority will choose the easy way. It is only the tough that will keep going when the going gets tough.

LIVING IN THE SPIRIT
Praise the Lord who gives completely of Himself to you. He is a Father and He gives freely to you because you are His son. He loves you and cares for you. Through all your trials and tribulations He is with you just as He was with His Son. This is your God. His presence in you is what makes the difference. In times of comfort your flesh takes over. It is in battle that you will need to depend on the Spirit. Your battles are in your mind. Your ego wants all the attention and will not rest till it has your attention. You are conscious of this and can defeat its longings to be in conflict. The ego desires conflict because it is in conflict that it is recognised. The ego does not like to be silent for silence means death to it. The Spirit loves silence for in silence you hear Him more clearly. This is why Jesus got away from the crowds so that he could pray and be listening to His Father. How good it is to hear His voice and be comforted. Many are the arrows that will come your way. The ego will keep your focus on the past and the future but you must live in the present. This is the only reality but the ego prefers the world of fantasy. How many years of your life have been wasted in fantasy? The ego prefers this world of make belief because this is the way it copes with reality. Cut yourself free from this and live now in the spirit and rejoice in this new day.

His presence in you is the answer to overcoming the flesh
This battle with the flesh is not new and all humanity is involved in this battle. Christ came to set you free from this. The church has lost its way because it has become unconscious like the rest of the world. Revival is the return of Christ consciousness. When you become Christ conscious then you recognise His presence in you. He is in you to enable you to defeat the flesh and the devil. The world conspires with the flesh to defeat the spirit. But the Spirit of Christ in you is greater then he who is in the world. Therefore be in the spirit and see how your enemies will flee. Plead His blood over your whole being and see how your enemies will flee your body and soul. The most high resides within you even when you are not conscious of His presence. His presence within you is real. The flesh however wants to be in control. When you are desperate for Him then it is that the flesh will let go. Like the alcoholic, the flesh refuses to let go till you reach rock bottom. At rock bottom is the state of total surrender. You cannot do it alone. This is why Jesus sent His own Spirit to help you. In your interactions with others your flesh will be stirred up. See these as opportunities to operate in the spirit which is death to the flesh. A free spirit is open to many kinds of spirits in the world. The Holy Spirit however will not entertain other spirits. This is the difference between the new agers and Christians. Therefore discern which spirit you are following. In these last days many are desperate for meaning and life but follow the broad way of destruction and not the narrow way of Christ. A free spirit is not bound in any way and therefore is open to all kinds of other spirits and is deluded into believing the false. The chosen will see and believe.

DISCERNING THE WORKS OF THE FLESH
Open your eyes and see the glory of the Lord. Now you know the conflict that most people are blind to. They walk in the flesh and they fight in the flesh. You have been freed from this conflict for now you can see the flesh for what it is and fight it in your spirit. This is a walk which is what the Bible calls a walk in the spirit. In this walk you can discern right from wrong. You no longer defend the flesh but die to it. Each opportunity you see enables you to die to those old ways of thinking and doing. You have come to the place of spiritual warfare where you fight the flesh with spiritual weapons and not earthly weapons. You recognise that you are in a spiritual battle. The Lord has allowed you to travel this long journey so that you would learn how wicked the flesh is. Jesus came to save you from your flesh life. The flesh life always seeks to satisfy its own desires. This is why you can’t walk in the flesh and the spirit. In the spirit you have victory over the flesh. The more you walk in the spirit the less you will desire the things of the flesh. God is at work in you by His Spirit who lives in you. All the fears of the flesh melt away as you walk in the spirit. This is your spiritual home. In Him you have everything you need to fight this battle of the flesh. Be filled in the spirit today and live.

THE TRUTH OPENS BLIND EYES
For the Lord is good and His loving kindness covers you. The Holy Spirit is released in you to think and talk through you. When you are in the Spirit then he takes over your mind and instructs you. He sows His thoughts into you. You become aware of your own thoughts and are able to differentiate them from His thoughts. You begin then to walk in His ways according to His thoughts. You are at peace now because you are walking in His will. This is a faith walk. Time and space do not matter any more because you are in His will. All you have is His and no one can take it away from you without His consent. You have committed all to Him and in His hands they will be. This is bliss and now you can enjoy His pleasures forevermore. He is love and in Him all are included, the saint and the sinner. Remember sin has infiltrated every corner of society and no one is free from its influence. However to choose to sin is given to man. He has the free will to choose. When men are blinded by Satan’s lies then they will fight for what they think is right. What is right may not be the truth. It is only right in the sight of the beholder who is blind. When his eyes are opened to see the truth then the scales will fall off and conversion will occur. This world blinds the people from the truth. Therefore you who know the truth need to walk according to the truth and shine His light.

BE PREPARED
God is at work in His church. He moves by His Spirit. Yes, just as when Jesus walked on earth so also God moves through you. Jesus could not work His works where there was little faith. Miracles occurred where there was faith. So also when the church is ready, God will move into the midst and bring healing. It is a partnership between God and man. As man moves towards God then God moves toward man. Therefore prepare your heart daily so that God can move and work through you. Your responsibility is to prepare the way and God will move at the right time. Remain in faith daily and you will receive your miracle. The flesh will work against you till it dies a physical death. Your spirit will live on to eternity. Your soul will be saved. What you have done in the flesh for Jesus sake will bring you rewards. Therefore be zealous in your work and serve the Lord with all your heart.

THE FLESH LIFE
The flesh will not die easily. It is only the constant awareness of His presence in you that can defeat the flesh. The flesh demands attention and it will try and get it in devious and varied ways. The flesh likes the darkness because it thrives in darkness and dark works. It is so bent that it cannot rejoice in good. It is bent towards sin and sinful ways. What you see in this world are the works of the flesh and of the devil. This is what God saw and He was moved to do something about it. He sent His Son as a sacrifice for sin. Satan now had lost his legal right because the God of justice had paid the price. Satan now has only right where he is allowed entrance. He will try and convince you otherwise but his end is near. Your battles with your flesh are over because you have been redeemed by the blood of the Lamb. He who knows the end from the beginning has purchased your soul and now you are free from the flesh and its longings. Hallelujah.

TRUTH
God is at work in you and the best place to be is to rest in is arms. He orders the times and the seasons and knows what is best for you. The devil may delay things but he does not have the last word. Only God has the last word. This is why you need to pray that all hindrances to His promises are unblocked. People need to persist in prayer till what they desire is received and achieved. God blesses and there is no doubt about this. His word is given so that you can receive His word in reality. What is in the word becomes flesh when you action it by faith. This is what happens in the spiritual dimension. You enter into the spirit dimension and receive His now word. Then you exercise faith in seeing the word being fulfilled. The word is fulfilled when the substance of it is seen. When you believe for a child then receive His word and the result is seen in a fruitful womb. Spiritual truth is translated into physical truth. His word became flesh and dwelt among men. People in the world have grasped this truth. This is why there is a burgeoning of spirituality at the present time. They all contain the truth but is not the truth. This is how the devil tricks people that they are alright but really they are not alright. Only the truth will set you free. All other ways will result in bondage.

HIS PRESENCE
God’s presence is what makes the difference. He is where you are because He resides in you. Therefore you can expect Him to see through you and speak through you. His conscious presence will bring Him into your conversation and bless others. It is like praying for others. Practicing the presence of God is the closest intercourse you can have with Him. It is like prayer as you practice His presence. He is everywhere but people are not aware of His presence. It is the awareness that results in the healing. Many talk about His presence but are not connected with it. When you become aware then you begin to see and feel and manifest His presence. This may come out as joy and laughter. Laughter is the release of emotion that has been pent up by your defences. Your defences keep your feelings under control. However there are emotions that need to be released otherwise they could damage your soul. Making people aware of His presence is what will bring healing. His healing presence go with you today as you minister to wounded hearts.

SENIOR PARTNER
The Holy Spirit is my senior partner. He directs my thoughts and feelings and actions. He is the author of all things pertaining to me and so I have confidence in what I do and think. He encourages me and exhorts me. He is my healer and restorer of my soul. My soul is in His hands and I am secure in Him. He is the Spirit of Jesus and He lives in me. I will never be alone because He will never leave me or forsake me. My life is hid in His hands. My mission is to make Him known so that others too may enjoy His presence in them. When I have tasted a good thing I want to share it with others. If I keep it to myself then I am being selfish because Jesus died for the whole world. His mission is my mission. He will direct me in His mission. He will order all things in my life and all I need to do is to be submitted to Him. Now I can bear all things because He is with me. He will take my pain and burden. I will do as He commands because I live to serve Him now. All these days I have lived to satisfy my selfish desires. Now I live to satisfy Him. I am His hands and feet, eyes and ears and tongue. I will praise Him always and live in His court day and night. Many will come and praise Him too and we will build a sanctuary for His presence. In His presence is joy everlasting. Praise be to the Lord.

PRIDE OF MAN
Happy is the man who trusts in the Lord and not in His own wisdom. The Lord’s ways are higher then the ways of man. The man who trusts in the Lord need not fear anything because the Lord is his help. God has many ways of redeeming His own. God moves in mysterious ways and only He knows the end from the beginning. So trust in Him and not in your own wisdom which is earthly and will decay. The Lord is a strong tower and in Him you have a security that cannot be shaken. The Spirit will write through you and speak through you. It is humbling for a man not to trust in his own strength. It goes against the flesh which wants to pride itself and take credit for everything. Kill this tendency in you and you will be free to be. No more guided by the whims of man but only by the will of God. This is the way to live an abundant life in the Lord. Totally free in Him and I breathe and act His will. His desires become my desires and in Him I am fulfilled.

TWO MINDS
God in Christ Jesus is redeeming the world one by one. His message is going out and His ways are different from mans. He is God and He knows what is the best way. He sent Jesus as the paschal lamb to die for the sins of the world. Now a way has been made and all who call on His Name will be saved. Salvation is free. Man’s way is to work for his salvation. God knew that man would be defeated in this process for the sin of man will not allow him to be set free from its demands. God found a new way through sacrifice. God took it upon Himself to be the Lamb that sacrificed His life for man’s sin. In this way man was set free from the torment of sin to be free to be. Now a way has been made for you to choose freely which way you will walk in, according to the flesh or according to the Spirit. The fleshly mind is still in you but it is being transformed by the new mind in Christ. The fleshly mind can be transformed but not the flesh. This is the renewing work of the Spirit. As you walk in the Spirit more will be revealed to you till you choose wholely to walk in the Spirit. The spirit mind is peace and love and in Him there is no division. It is the divided mind that seeks its own way rather then the Christ way.

HIS BLOOD AND HIS LOVE
The Lord knows everything and therefore it is best to entrust all things to Him. This is the time to just rest in the Lord. He has given you all things to enjoy and therefore enjoy them. Your life is hid in Christ. He is your all in all and there is no other. Rest in Him. He is the Alpha and Omega of your faith. He is the great I AM. In Him you have all you need for love and significance. In Him you are established forever. He is your sure foundation. He gives you all you need when you need it. What more can you ask for? He has called you by name and in His Name you have access to His abundance. His abundance lives in you. The Holy Spirit is the giver of life and that eternal. His eternal life operates in you to bring life to all your being. In Him alone do you have life. Therefore cherish each moment and do not give into your fleshly urges. They will always be there but they will never satisfy you. You have been bought with a price, the blood of Jesus. Glory in His blood and in His love. These are 2 weapons you have to defeat Satan and to win the hearts of men. His love shed abroad in our hearts is the only thing that will satisfy. He came and he poured His love into man so that he could be delivered from his pain of separation from God.

HOLY SPIRIT POWER
The power on high is available to you because Jesus has gone to the Father. You are His representative on earth now to represent His love and grace. His power flows through you as He sanctifies you by His Spirit who lives in you. This is the essence of grace in that He supplies all His ability to overcome what you can’t in your own strength. God wants you to use the talents He has given you and He supplies more when you require more then what you have. His supplies are unlimited. Yet He wants you to be dependent on His power. His power through you enables you to live a supernatural life. You don’t operate in your own strength now but in His. When you sacrifice all to Him then He releases His resources to you. These are resources that will sustain you when you need it. Material resources help but cannot sustain you when the pressure is high to give in to the world, flesh and devil. The spiritual resources you require to fight every demonic onslaught will be available to you. This is why you don’t fight flesh and blood but spiritual powers in high places. His weapons are required to slay the enemy of your soul. So fight the good fight in His strength and prevail

LOVE
Love is the most powerful weapon for spiritual warfare. Satan does not love because all he knows is fear and he imputes fear and controls through fear. Love is the most powerful antidote for fear. Fear causes violence for violence is a defence against fear. Fear drives violence for fear loses control and therefore violence ensues. Underlying all violence is a spirit of fear. Fear of loss of control is the basis for violence. Fear of being attacked and losing face results in violence. Criminals in prison are tormented by fear. This torment makes them hard and ruthless for they are victims of their own fear. In prison they feel safe from their own fears. Outside they will be surrounded by fear of retribution. Love heals, comforts, respects and does not control. Therefore love is the most powerful weapon to overcome fear. Whenever fear attacks you remember to energise the spirit of love. Love does not focus on the negatives but the positive. The positive power of love is the healing force to all the problems in human relationships. This love will lay down its life for another just as Jesus did. The Cross symbolises love for it is the ultimate sacrifice. Jesus died that I may receive His love that heals my heart of fear and fills me with His peace.

EGO
To be free in the spirit is to be free from the ego. The ego is that part of you that wants to be in control and will fight the spirit. The spirit is consciousness that is connected to God and communes with God. The ego is earth bound and succumbs to the sins of the flesh. The devil operates through your ego. Your flesh and the devil are your main enemies to a closer walk with God. A lot of your energy is expended in defending your ego. God says die to your ego for in this is your salvation. All your systems are affected by your ego. The ego is slave to the drives of the flesh which seeks to glorify self. The ego is unconscious and therefore operates on rote. It is captive to its own patterns of thinking and feeling. It goes round in circles because it likes conflicts and attracts conflicts. You are always battling something and this is your ego. It does not like peace and rest because it thrives on negativity. This world is filled with negativity and darkness because the god of the world controls it. God is above this world and sees the captive state of mankind and has provided a way of escape. See how freely you operate when you are free of your ego. Learn to walk in the spirit and see yourself delivered from your egoic state.

DEMONS
Demons are real and affect people and animals and things. They find haven in places of darkness. They need a place to hide and they feed on sin. Sin is a opening for them to abide. Darkness in a place is a sure sign of demonic activity. They thrive in darkness because they are of the darkness. They hate the light for they are blinded by the light. Therefore avoid places where darkness resides. These are places in the world where there is hidden activity and the rebellious spirit is in control. People who venture into these places will be affected by the darkness. Walk in the light as He is in the light. You work with people who are affected by darkness. Some are controlled by demonic entities but they are not aware of it. When demons see the Cross they will manifest the darkness in them. People of the darkness will feel uncomfortable in your presence. The demons in them will feel agitated. They will manifest themselves when provoked. The light in you will dispel the darkness. Don’t be fooled by fronts. The root is bad and the fruit will manifest what is in the root. This is why marriages break down because the deceptive front is exposed. This is why marriages are being attacked for they will show the true qualities of the person. A marriage demands commitment. A generation that shuns commitment will shun marriage.

HEART OF FLESH
The heart of flesh is what man needs to live an abundant life. The heart of stone has developed because of fear. The heart of stone can never see the needs of others. It is blinded by the defences of a life that has grown to protect itself. The heart of flesh relies on God. Only a heart that has received the light can have a heart of flesh. A heart of flesh is alive and vibrant. It does not seek its own but looks out for others. It is alive and therefore can sense everything around it. A heart of stone is dead to what is around it because the stony heart hides from everything around it. A heart of flesh will rest in God’s providence and not rely on man’s providence. The Spirit of God dwells in the heart of flesh. What man needs is a heart transplant. This is possible in Jesus Name. He transforms you from an inward focussed person to one who is outward bound and looking for opportunities to serve. Giving becomes a way of life and there is nothing too difficult. Such a person is held by love and knows no other language then the language of love. Love will overcome every barrier and sin and evil force. Jesus showed the way and He will work through you to open the way for redemption.

SPIRIT FILLED LIFE
When the Holy Spirit fills you then He changes your script to a new script, His script. Your script developed over the ages through life experiences slowly dissolves to be replaced by His script. This script is His word that washes and cleanses you. The old script just bound you to a way of thinking and feeling that resulted in death. The new script brings life and that abundant. You revel in the new life for it is full of life giving words and energy. This new energy penetrates into the core of your being and revitalises every cell in your body. When the Lord calls, He provides. God never calls you to do something without providing the means to do it. God works through His Spirit and therefore He who owns a thousand hills can do what only He can do. When Jesus walked on earth He depended on His Father to provide for His needs. There was more then enough because He depended on spiritual forces. The angels ministered to Him. The Holy Spirit led Him to the Cross. He healed all who came to him through the power of the Spirit. This is the way you will live as well. No more dependent on man but on God. A spirit filled life lives and moves in the spirit.

ETERNAL SPIRIT
The youth of a man continues as he is led by the Spirit. The word of God says that those who wait on the Lord will renew their strength. They will mount up on wings like eagles. They will not faint but their youth will be renewed. In the eternal Spirit all things become new. They will run and not be weary. Because the Spirit is eternal it has the power of eternity. All diseases and sickness of the soul and body will melt away. The Spirit will renew, refresh and transform you. As His word takes deep root within you, you will become like a pillar of gold, strong and steady. You won’t bend like a reed in times of trouble. All your sorrows will be consumed by the Cross. His Cross will cancel out everything negative and evil. His blood will wash away all sin and cleanse you. Only the power of the blood can cleanse, heal and deliver. Come Holy Spirit and apply this truth to the inner parts of my being.

BLINDNESS
Precious are the times when you can sit and talk with people and see their needs and pray for them. Jesus is a silent witness in all your conversations. You are there as His mouth piece. Your own needs are secondary to theirs. He meets all your needs. When you feel assaulted then you know He absorbs it. You don’t have to carry the load for He carries it for you. All your burdens are lifted at Calvary and you are free. This is the way to live, freely. You receive freely and now you can give freely. This is the way of the Spirit. There are no dead lines to meet. You are on His mission and not your mission. All these years you have worked for yourself. Now you work for Him. You are not bothered about your career or achievements. All you want to be and do is to serve others through Him. He appoints and does not disappoint. Your salvation is free but your sanctification is costly. The cost is to your flesh that has to die daily to its selfish needs. Selfishness drives the world. This is the state of unconsciousness. Ever since man left the Garden of Eden he became unconscious and therefore blind to the spirit world and was lost in darkness. Now your eyes are open and you can see the end and it is so good.

FREE
Freedom in the Spirit is like free air to breathe. We breathe freely because air is free. So also the Spirit is free but at a price, the death of Jesus. He rose and ascended to the Father so that I can breathe freely. Without His Spirit I am as a dead as a corpse. My fate is sealed in Him. I am now living a life for eternity in Him. It is His Spirit that enables me to breathe. Nothing can stop me from experiencing the love of Jesus. His love enables me to love others. Only through the Spirit can I receive anything. He enables me to do what He has promised to do. This is the life of liberty. Yet men reject this simple message because it is too simple. They do not realise that the flesh always wants to take credit. Jesus takes all the credit. Only pride can stop a man from receiving of His fullness. In Him I am full and free because He has purchased with His blood and I am free. The freedom I have in Him costs Him His life. I owe all to Him and I will be eternally grateful for His sacrifice.

EVIL
The flesh is strong but the Spirit is stronger. Every time I defeat the flesh through the Spirit I feel stronger. This is evidence that in the flesh I can do no good thing. The flesh will always try to please the ego by giving into its fleshy desires. The fleshly desires keep man blind to his deeper needs. He is unconscious of his fallen state and therefore thinks that all this is o.k. When his eyes are opened to see his fallen state then he repents and turns from his wicked ways. This is what happens when a man is delivered from his deluded self. Pharaoh was so full of himself that he proclaimed himself god. This is what happens when power becomes a demon that controls you and you get mad with power. You think that you are indestructible and use others for your own ends. You destroy yourself in this process. The Spirit can deliver you if you submit to Him. He will give you the grace to see your fault and to set you free. This is the gospel of salvation which is free for all but few choose to follow. Man prefers to keep to his rules and regulations and deceive himself that he is safe. No man is safe in his own castle because others will be waiting to see him fall. This is the evil in man that does not wish for man to prosper but to fall. This is what news is and this is what the populace thrives on. The more negativity the better one feels, as it is comparison of who is less evil then the other rather then who is better then the other. Evil can only compare with itself for it does not understand good. Lord deliver us from this evil age and have mercy on the poor.

BE BORN AGAIN
The Lord is overall. He is available to all but most are unconscious of His presence. The world is blind to the workings of God. This is the way the world has been deceived. The world is held captive by the great deceiver of our souls, the devil. He fools everyone by distracting them by the things they can see. The age of media is the primary way of his deceptive tactics. Don’t fall for it as all that glitters is not gold. The flesh is easily enticed but at the end of the rainbow is an empty promise. God seeks for those who thirst after righteousness. He is merciful but the devil will accuse you and seek judgement. Jesus chose to lay down His life for me rather then to judge me. It is my own heart that judges me. He never condemns me for He has paid for my sins, past, present and future. So who will I give my life to? Only Jesus deserves all honour and praise and glory. There is no other way for His way is the best way. No other leader has laid his life down for his followers. They have all sought to lead them down a road that appears good but at the end is death. Jesus gives eternal life and this life is for now. Don’t get caught up by issues but seek to give life and the rest will take care of itself. Issues become important only when the real issue is not faced. Avoid the main issue and secondary issues will take centre stage. Be born again and see how your life takes a different direction as His Spirit comes and transforms you from a destiny of death to life.

ONE WAY
Many are the ways of man but God has only one way. This is the way of His Son, Jesus. He proclaimed the way when He said, I am the way. The way to God is through Him. He made the way when there was no way. He is the righteousness of God in flesh. He is our righteousness and in Him we are free from all sin. What a place to be. By His grace and mercy you have been saved from destruction. God knew you even before you were conceived. How could this be? Because He is God and He knew what He is doing. He knows where and when and how. He knows from the beginning of time till the end. He knows everything about everything. You think you know but it is nothing compared to what He knows. All you can do is discover what He knows. You take the glory when you discover but God gets all the glory because He is the source. Sin has turned the heart of man away from God. Yet God is merciful and He will turn the hearts of the rebellious to worship Him. What a great God we serve. To Him be all the glory and praise forever and ever amen.

THE CROSS
God came into the world because sin had come into the world and tarnished all that He had created. The sin of the world is rebellion against God. God had established the garden of harmony but sin brought in disharmony. Since then man has had to fight against negativity all his life. Jesus came to be the sacrifice that would set man free from the power of sin. Now through His Cross you have liberty to choose. Sin has no more dominion over you. You have been saved through the blood of the Cross. This is the message of salvation that all need to hear and be saved. This is the message that needs to be broadcast to all and sundry that all maybe saved. However many hear and do not respond to the Cross. The religious did not recognise Him and now the world does not recognise Him. He came as a servant and those who were poor recognised Him. Today those who hunger and thirst after righteousness will find rest for their souls in Him. This world as it is will come to an end. You have to diminish so that He can increase. You cannot serve God and mammon. The more sold out you are for Him the more brightly your light will shine.

PREPARE FOR HIS RETURN
The Lord works through His Spirit. Man works through his mind. To know the mind of God means that you will have to access Him through your spirit. It is spirit to Spirit communication that results in revelations to your mind. The mind cannot understand God for it is carnal. God operates in all realms but by His Spirit. It is by His Spirit that He performs all His works. Without His Spirit He can’t do anything. His Spirit dwells in you and enables you to do what He expects you to do. God is at work in you through His Spirit. Most of the time you are unaware of His works. To be aware you need to be conscious of His Spirit. When you become conscious then you will receive revelations of His workings. His work is to prepare you for His return. He is coming soon and all who are chosen will respond to His calling. Prepare your heart and soul for His return. Now is the time to walk in the Spirit and to be constantly alert to His words. He will make you aware of His presence and speak words of comfort to you. His warnings are to prepare you and not to distress you. The day of the Lord’s return will happen suddenly so be prepared. Man will have many theories and speculations. Never be distracted by them. Fix your eyes on Jesus and you will be saved.

MULTIPLE CHANNELS
Inspire and be inspired. This is the way of the Spirit. Inspiration comes from breathing in the Spirit. The Spirit is a person and He can feel and communicate through His 5 senses to your 5 senses. Therefore when you are open to Him you will sense Him through your senses. In this way you will know. You are not just governed by your thoughts but you also intuit through your senses. This is to be informed through multiple channels. You are not restricted to one sense. When all your senses are working in harmony then you will get confirmation from each. Otherwise you will only sense through one channel and think you are right. Learn to sense through many channels. In this way you always be on top. Truth is not limited to a narrow channel. It is able to see from many angles and then provide a solution. When you are limited to one channel then you only see what you are used to seeing and this becomes truth to you. The danger in this is that you limit your potential. God works through multiple means. Therefore be open today to multiple channels and be enlarged.

TOTAL SURRENDER
What a wonderful place to be in total surrender. Total surrender means 100% surrender. There is no place for anything but total submission to Christ. This is the only way to know Him. The flesh will want to compromise and tolerate but the Spirit demands total surrender. This is a radical position which will attract opposition. Jesus was killed for His position as God in flesh. The Jews called this blasphemy. They did not know what they were doing when they screamed crucify Him. Their guilt was screaming at them and all they could do was to kill Him. By killing Him they thought they could put an end to Christ. How wrong they were. Only death can produce resurrection power. The flesh has to be crucified. There is no other way. No compromise. You have to live what you believe even if you are the only one. Many fail to receive because they fail to go all the way. This is the only way to know Him. To know Him is to love Him. To love Him is to experience His resurrection power today. Come Holy Spirit and help me to surrender and experience your resurrection power.
Saturday, May 07, 2011
SELF TALK OR GOD TALK
Self talk or God talk, you choose. Self talk comes from the ego which is preoccupied with the past or the future. God talk comes from the Spirit which is comforting, loving, compassionate and free. It is not controlling or condemning. Self talk is concerned about the self. God talk is concerned about others and God’s heart. The Bible is full of God talk. When you meditate on His Word then your self talk becomes God talk. You will begin to think like His thoughts because His thoughts are His words. You can use God’s Word as a standard to see if your thoughts measure up to it. If you find that they don’t, then it is your responsibility to crucify them. A lot of stress and distress is caused by self talk. Underneath all the self talk is the demon of fear. Fear is the opposite of love. There is no fear in love. Perfect loves casts out all fear. Therefore look for fear and if you sense it then you know that the root is evil. Love always thinks and looks out for the other. Jesus had no fear because He was assured of His Father’s love always. You are assured of the Father’s love always. Don’t get upset over silly mistakes of the flesh that is in a hurry to do things. Step back and take your time. There is no bus to catch for He is in control of all things

WALK IN THE SPIRIT
The power of the gospel is the power to save and to set the captive free. When the good news is received by faith it has the power to do a work in you that is eternal. Many fail to walk in it, for it is a process that takes a life time of communion and cleansing. The old man in you has to be reckoned dead daily otherwise he will continue to pollute your mind with its desires and longings. These desires are opposed to the Spirit. The Holy Spirit cannot do his work in you unless the old man is reckoned dead. It is by faith that you reckon him dead. It is by faith you reckon that the Holy Spirit is renewing you. As you access His strength you become renewed. It is His strength in you that enables you to reach for the lost. The lost are dying and death is the end point. For a Christian death is a translation into eternal life. The path you choose will enable you to walk to death or to life. Choose life today for it is eternal. The eternal life of the Spirit in you will enable you to defeat all your enemies.

BELIEF
Belief is the core of ones being. One cannot exist without believing in something. All our values are based on our beliefs. Belief is the essence of life. Once you know what you believe in, it will motivate every thought and action. Your desires are essentially your beliefs in action. Your beliefs cannot be stagnant. They will be acted on and expressed in some way. This expression gives you meaning and purpose. It is the expression of your belief that results in how you conduct your daily life. If you have no hope then this is expressed in depressed ways. If you believe that you are a superman then you will behave in that way. Some are unaware of what motivates them but underlying all expression of behaviour is a deep belief system. This is the essence of your spiritual being. You may have been taught certain religious traditions but ultimately they mean nothing unless they are part of your belief. Religious practices can take place without belief. These practices are done to satisfy some system you belong to like the church. It is only when these practices are part of your belief that it has any value. Many go to church but operate in unbelief. Your spirit comes alive when your faith becomes expressed in action.

GIVE FREELY
Praise God that he is able to help those who are His. He watches over them and cares for them. He is always there for them. He is the One who promises to help them when everyone else leaves them. God is able and He is able to do much more then you can think or imagine. He is above all and full of love. He is a generous God. He gives freely because He lacks nothing. He gave His only begotten Son. There is no limit to how much He can give. He gives freely to all who ask Him. He is the giver of life. When the water flows freely then more will be supplied to flow through you. You hold back only in fear. You will lack nothing because God lives in you. He is full of abundance so when you give then you will be blessed. There is so much joy in giving. Giving is a way of life. When you bless others then they will want to bless you. Love always wins. There is no lack in love.

SAVED
Today is the day the Lord has made, we will rejoice and be glad in it. Today the Lord calls those who are His to rejoice and be glad for your names are written in heaven. God has made a way where no way existed. God has given man hope of eternal life. He died for the world but the world rejected Him. Each generation is given a choice to choose and each generation will be held accountable. There is no other way. Nothing matters more then your eternal destiny. This life is short when compared with eternity. Only those who call on the Name of the Lord will be saved. It is urgent now to spread the word. The King is coming soon. Prepare the way. Jesus said I am the way, the truth and the life. Now go and catch them in the Name of Jesus. In His Name all will be saved who call on Him.

TRUST THE LORD AT ALL TIMES
Hope in the Lord and He will refresh you. The flesh and the devil will try to upset and confuse you. He is your strength and you will only find a way of escape in Him. The father of lies will try and deceive you but you must trust the Lord at all times. His favour is upon you. You will do what the Lord plans for you each day. You don’t live to please people but to please the Lord. The days are such that people rather please each other then the Lord. People seek other gods to worship then the Lord of hosts. Therefore be strong in times like these when you must follow your heart and not be distracted by what is socially and politically correct. You have been called in times like this to stand and not to bend like a weed. God is looking for a people who will be radical for His cause. Lord help me to stand in times like these. You are my only hope and in you I trust daily for manna to feed my soul.

POPULATING HEAVEN
Powerful forces are at work to cause you to fall. The enemy is not happy when you decide to confront him in the Name of Jesus. He hates Jesus for He made a display of him at Calvary. What the enemy thought was his victory turned out to be his damnation. Satan lost and his head was stepped on and his defeat set forth his fury against all creation. He will continue his work to steal, kill and destroy till he is finished completely. His works of darkness will be exposed and nothing can compare to his end in hell. This is why you can expect opposition at every front when you move forward in populating heaven. Souls are lingering between hell and heaven. You have the responsibility to save them from the fiery grave of hell. Eternity is there for you to rest. Now is the time to work while it is still light. Come Holy Spirit and fire me up for heaven so that I can rescue many from the fiery grave of hell. Lord change me so that I will never regress to the works of the flesh. Satan and my flesh are against me. You only are for me and in you I have perfect rest.

WRECKED FOR JESUS
I am wrecked for Jesus. This is the theme of my life. The flesh is the only thing that stands between you and your walk with the Lord. The flesh needs to be wrecked as it stands in the way to achieve intimacy with God. The flesh stands in opposition to God and consorts with the devil to bring you down. He steals kills and destroys. This is his mission. Jesus came to bring life and that abundantly. So why cooperate with the flesh and the devil. In the power of the Holy Spirit you have dominion over them. Therefore stand on the day of trial and do not give into the flesh. The flesh is doomed for death while the spirit is for eternal life. Why waste your energies in defending the flesh. This is why Paul said I am undone. I am the worst sinner. He came to the place of realisation that in him dwelt no good thing. All he had was by the grace of God. When you come to the place of seeing this then you will have power with God. His power will flow freely through you. He will assault the devil and his works. Life will become a battle to thrash the devil and empty hell and populate heaven.

CRUCIFY THE FLESH
The flesh and the Spirit are opposed to each other. When you walk in the flesh then the Spirit is displaced from His position. This is why only complete surrender to Him will do. Surrender is like crucifixion to the flesh. Paul said, I am crucified with Christ. This means he died with Christ. The Cross means death to self. Death to self is the only way to please God. All that is of the flesh is enmity with God. If you want your heart to be like Jesus then die to the flesh. Jesus carried the Cross during His earthly life. His crucifixion was the end of His journey. Your journey is made easy for you are crucified through identification with Him. You now have resurrection power to crucify the flesh. Flesh cannot crucify flesh. Many are able to do a good cover up job. It is like putting a pink ribbon around the neck of a pig. Looks nice but the nature is the same. The true nature manifests itself when challenged. You know your true nature when you are challenged. Then all you need to do is crucify the flesh and respond in the Spirit.

REST
Life is a roller coaster ride and some hang on and make it while others fall off and die. When God is in control then the ride becomes easy as you are in His hands and not in your hands. Resting in Him is a ride worth taking for it brings you to a place of eternal rest. This rest is not like the rest of lying in bed but a rest in times of storm. Sickness and disease is all around and you will be affected by the same. However the Lord is in it with you. He knows your pain and heals you. God embraces all things and all people. Nothing is evil in His presence for all are changed and transformed in His presence. Even Satan can be transformed in His presence but he is banned from His presence. Satan knows his end but he wants to take many with him to eternal damnation just like any loser would do. In His presence you are protected from his assaults because a ring of safety covers you like a balloon. In this balloon you are safe from his assaults and temptations. When you move out of His covering you will face temptation and struggles. All the suffering you face is of your flesh. Therefore deny your flesh its longings and you will find rest.
Friday, April 22, 2011
EMBRACE THE CROSS
Bless the Lord O my soul and all that is within me bless His holy Name. He is above all and He reigns from heaven above. He is the author and Creator of all things. When love enters a life then evil will have to leave. Evil will steal, kill and destroy. Love builds, heals and restores. So ask yourself are you an agent for love or death. Death comes in different forms and is dark and insidious. Love is open and vulnerable. It does not seek its own but the good of the other. Therefore when you see death and destruction seek to heal and restore through love. Love transforms and makes all things new. The Cross is the greatest demonstration of love this world will ever know. Embrace the Cross and you embrace love.
Thursday, April 21, 2011
HIDDEN POTENTIAL
Praise God who extends you to expect more because He lives in you. In Him you have all the resources to extend yourself and be His hands and feet. He can do things through you unimaginable because he is the Creator. If only man can see this and believe. Anything is possible to a child of God. His child is like a precious diamond to Him. When you realise, this then nothing in this world is attractive to you any more. All you want is more of Him. He is in you to bless you with more of Him. He is so near that you can touch Him. This closeness is what makes you different to those who worship God from a distance. This is why Jesus had to go to the Father so that He could send His Spirit to indwell you. Now you have all the potential in you of the one who raised the dead, healed the leper and restored sight to the blind. Come and dwell with Him and be amazed.

SHINE YOUR LIGHT
Light of the world you came into darkness and you set the captive free. This light shines eternally and all who see the light will be saved. This light led the 3 wise men to where Jesus was born in Bethlehem. It is this same light that is shining in dark places. Don’t fear darkness for this is when your light will be seen more clearly. The greater the darkness the brighter your light will shine. God made it so that light and darkness should abide together. This is why you will see evil manifest where there is good. Evil cannot stand the light and therefore will be manifest. When compromise and slack reigns, then the darkness and light merge and the difference will not be noticed. People become mesmerised to the greyness around them. Moral values drop and anything goes. This is why your light needs to shine brighter in grey areas. People can only see the light when you shine brightly and then the difference will be noticed. Therefore let the Spirit of God shine brightly today through you. Your light will shine and the darkness will retreat. Where there was turmoil, there will be peace. Where there was strive there will be order. In the Name of Jesus go and be light in a dark and fallen world.
Tuesday, April 19, 2011
LIGHT OF THE WORLD
Praise God who directs you and helps you to achieve your goals. He is in you directing you through the day and night. He covers you and enfolds you with His arms. You are His and He is yours and together you are one. This is how Jesus felt when He walked on earth. His Father’s presence was with Him all the time. You also feel His presence and rest in His arms. He will bring to pass what is needed when it is needed. This is the way to walk in the Spirit. As you walk He will talk to you and make His plans plain to you. You are not here to achieve anything but be His light in the darkness. You carry His light as you walk along the path and His light shines through you to dispel the darkness. Just as a light brightens the darkened room so you are also called to be light. Imagine how bright the light will get when many join hands and glow. The darkness will be pushed back and captives will be set free. He came as the light of the world and now He has put His light in you so that you too can shine and be the light of the world.

ETERNAL LIFE
Abiding in Him is like resting in Him. In His arms there is no fear but perfect rest. I am in Him and He is in me and we both are one. This is the perfect union of Father and child united in love and eternal in time. This perfect union continues till the end for there is no end in eternity. This is what Christ purchased for each one and only a child who has caught the vision will thirst for souls. Eternity is at the heart of the gospel. Death is defeated and the grave is empty. What more do you need now that you know that eternal life is yours. All the minor irritations of this life shade away as the primacy of the gospel becomes real and now. Life lived in the light of eternity is like a fire that never dies. It just keeps growing and glowing for all to see and be attracted to it and be saved. You have been called to be a light to the gentiles that many may come and be smitten by the light.

FACTS AND TRUTH
The fact is that you are weak and have all these things to contend with in the flesh. The truth is that you are a child of God, a prince, a priest and a over comer. You can believe the facts or the truth in Christ. You are a new creation in Christ. You have been bought with His blood. You are chosen and ordained to be a priest in the household of God. God has appointed you and called you according to His purpose in Christ Jesus. This is what changed the disciples from fisherman to fishers of men. They became world movers by their changed vision of themselves based on the truth revealed to them through Christ. The Holy Spirit came and endowed them with power that they could now move mountains of fear and sickness and turn the world upside down. Here is the basis for the word of God in transforming lives so that when facts appear to be true, the truth comes in and reverses it. Jesus said He is the truth and in Him the facts of your life are changed. In Him all things are possible for He is the truth. All who call on Him will be saved. Today live in the light of the truth rather then the facts and see how sickness and disease will flee in His Name. His truth transforms and does not just change things. He turned water into wine when He spoke it into existence. The facts were changed by the truth of His word. So also lives can be transformed by His abiding word.

THE GLORY OF THE LORD
Let the glory of the Lord shine upon you as the sun arises in the morning. The glory of the sun is amazing to watch. She sweeps the earth and gives light and heat to the earth. All the creation waits for the sun to rise. In the same way as you arise in the glory of the Lord you are surrounded by light and warmth of the Spirit. The Spirit of God enables you to rise. He encourages you and feels through you. He knows your deepest need and He satisfies like no other. Many are the distractions that take you away from Him but He always waits for you. Turn your eyes to Him and never give into the urges of the flesh. It is a waste of time and energy to spend your time cherishing those pleasures which once enthralled you. You realise now that they were sent to keep you from the Spirit. The Spirit gives life and health. Therefore spend time in Him and with Him and be empowered.

TOTAL SURRENDER
Blessings follow those who persist in walking with the Lord. He will not withhold His blessings as He did to Israel when they refused to follow Him. He has purchased you with a price and now you belong to Him. He holds you and not the other way round. You have surrendered your life to Him and now you can be rest assured that He will keep you who has called you. He will work through you and position you for victory. Position is everything to achieving the utmost. He is in you and working through you. The devil has no say in the matter because he has been ejected by His strong hand. The devil may insinuate and trouble you with fantasies and imaginings but you must not listen to him. He is a waste of time. The pleasures of the flesh will not satisfy for they only bind you to a way of thinking and doing that kills. He destroys and does not build. Therefore give 100% to Him and you will experience 100% joy and freedom.

THOUGHTS AND FEELINGS
Thoughts and feelings are more powerful then words. They work at a subconscious level and influence your behaviour and that of others. You are influenced by the thoughts and feelings of others. Enter a room where there is positive energy and you realise that the place is filled with positive thoughts and feelings. Enter another place where there is a negative atmosphere and you will be affected by it. Therefore make sure that you keep your own space filled with positive thoughts and feelings. This is easier said then done because the evil one wants to fill you with negative thoughts and feelings. No amount of words can change the atmosphere because what you say you must believe in. If the words are just words for the sake of saying the right thing then it won’t last or have the desired effect. This is why silence is better then noise. Genuine communication involves both words and feeling. Open and direct communication has the effect of cleansing the atmosphere. This is why Jesus spoke in parables to explain spiritual truths. In this way even the children could understand and believe.

MESSAGE OF HOPE
Lord I love you and it is my purpose to serve you all the days of my life. I know the devil is not pleased but I will persist till I die in the way. You give me the strength and the ability to persevere and not relent. You are the Saviour of my soul and in you I am content to be. Many are the pressures that come against me but you are my light and my fortress. In you I am safe and secure and in you I am complete. I fill myself with your word and your word replaces my thoughts. In you I have all things I need for leading a overcoming life. In you alone am I victorious and in you I will overcome all things that face me. You have led me all the days of my life and in you I find repose and rest. Healing and health are mine because you the Healer lives in me. There is nothing more that I can do because you complete me. This is the greatest message that the world needs to know, that Christ in me is the hope of glory. Now I can go into all the world with this message of hope and see captives freed from their torment.

THE WAY
Persist in the way and you will find mountains of goodwill coming your way. The way of Christ is the only way that will last for it is for eternity. All other ways have a life span but is not eternal. Look for opportunities to proclaim His way which is higher then all other ways. His will is that all may come into His inheritance. You are selfish if you hold on to what you know is for all and refuse to share His message of life to all. He is present with you at all times and in Him you have His presence with you to guide you and help you. He is your Helper and with Him by your side you will never have to fear anything. He is in you and with you. What more can you ask for then this. It is like a never losing option. He has made it possible and you have nothing to lose by proclaiming this message of life. Many stand for what is base and evil and yet few are prepared to stand for what is right. This is how the world has influenced you with all that is negative. Negative news appears as good news because it makes others feel better. Good news appears as bad news for it makes others feel bad. This is why the Good News is anathema to those who are lost but life to those who are eternally blessed.

REACH OUT
Happy is the man who is content and does not ask for more. He will be like a brook that gives out living water. He will be satisfied in all circumstances and release life rather then death. He is dependent on God for all his needs. He does not think of his needs for He will meet them all. He just reaches out to others to meet their needs. He is not caught up with his own issues but is a vessel ready for use by His Master. This is the man God uses for he is available to His Master for His use. This is the way God flows through people to meet their needs. A man who is content will look to fill the gaps so that others can be filled. God will move through you if you allow Him to. It is that look, touch and feeling for another that releases God’s love. His love is so pure that people who feel His love will never be the same again. It is not just words but action that results in change. Therefore today reach out to others and see your own needs being met as you do so.

HOPE FOR THE POOR
Many are the burdens who walk without the Lord. They believe that they are responsible for their lot in life. They do not realise that I am there for them. They live in ignorance and die in it. God loves everyone and you should have the same attitude towards them that God has. He made them all in His image but the traumas of life have reduced then to the state they are in. God came to restore this brokenness and restore to them the image of His Son, Jesus. Jesus came to set the captive free. This is why He preached to the poor knowing that they were the rejected ones and had no hope. He came for the hopeless that they may find hope in their poverty. Never ignore the poor and the ugly for theirs is the Kingdom of God. Look with His eyes and you will see the needy before you. Many suffer from rejection and loneliness. Be available to them. Lord make me sensitive to the needs of those around me.

REFRESHING TIMES
Happy is the man who surrenders all to the Lord. He will be like a palm tree that flourishes in the desert. He will be luxuriant despite all the scarcity around him. He will water others because he is full and overflowing. He has much to give because much has been given to him. Blessed is the Lord who gives freely. Freely you have received and therefore freely give. God will show you the next step as you step out in faith. He is a living God and therefore is able to communicate to you what he wants you to do. You can be in constant communion with Him because His Holy Spirit dwells in you. This is the time to relax in Him and be empowered for the work ahead. Nothing interests you more then to do His will. This is what total surrender means. You reckon your self dead to all the forces around you and within you. You are alive only in the Spirit. You are able to rise above the miasma of things around you. Your confidence is in the Lord and in Him you will hope all the time

TRIUMPH
Your purpose is to live for the Lord and fulfil His mission in the world. For this only total surrender to His will do. This means death to self. Death to self means no rights but only His right. No rights means that you only live to please Him and not your flesh. The key to defeat Satan is to deny the flesh its desires. No point trying to defeat Satan when your flesh refuses to deny itself. You can do it for God lives in you and will do it through you. This is the only reason God decided to live in you to give you power over your flesh. Once you realise His holy presence within you then you will live only to please Him. Every time you give into him you will be given power to overcome your flesh. Therefore go out now in the power of the Holy Spirit and see how He will lead you and guide you to triumph in every situation and relationship and venture.

SPIRIT LED
Pretty faces do not always promise what they display. It is the heart that matters rather then pretty faces. Many are fooled by the outward and then fall and regret the deception. Deception is a powerful way the enemy will deceive you and cause you to fall. Watch and pray that you are not deceived by your senses. Do not trust them for they are fuelled by your ego which lusts after good things of the world. The world, devil and flesh are major enemies of the spirit. The spirit is pure but is defiled by the agency of the flesh. Therefore be filled in the spirit and walk by the spirit. The Holy Spirit in you will lead you and guide you and work through your spirit. Your flesh will submit to the spirit when it is reckoned as dead. Giving into the flesh is like giving into the enemy of your soul

RIGHTEOUSNESS
The Lord is good and His faithfulness is eternal. He loves you and cares for you. There is nothing too hard for Him. He is God and in Him you have all you need for righteous and upright life. He is your righteousness. He is your everything. You have everything you need in Him. He orders your days and in Him you are made whole. When you know His hand upon your life then nothing else matters. You live as if it is the last day of your life. Every moment is precious. You don’t waste your energies in the trivial things. You are bold and strong in him. People will see your good works and glorify the Father. Yes He works through you and you are just an instrument in His hands. Just like a musician produces melody so you also will produce the sweet sounds that will glorify Him. Many thirst for righteousness but never find it. Only in Him is there righteousness. So why waste your time in chasing after the wind that will deliver nothing but hot air. Come to Him who imputes His righteousness on you. By grace you have been saved by faith.

HE IS COMING SOON
Prepare the way for the Lord. He is coming soon and he will reveal to you signs of His coming. You will know by His Spirit in you and you will warn the people of His coming. It will be an exciting time because your troubles will all come to an end. You will fast and pray and thirst for souls to be saved from hell fire. He is coming soon for those who long for His coming. The time is near but those lost in their own world will not be prepared. They will go on sinning and living lives of decadence and sin. They will be blind to spiritual things and will not know what hit them when He comes. It will be too late to repent. They will be lost forever. So pray for souls to come to the river of life and drink and be filled. Be committed to the cause and never relent. I have revealed to you the things that will happen and now you need to pray for mercy. Come Holy Spirit and prepare me for your soon coming in glory.

PRIDE
Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord and not in his own strength. To be holy is to be humble before the Lord Almighty. He is Lord of heaven and earth. He is above all and all who call on His Name need to humble themselves. Humility is a mark of a holy man. The proud have no place in heaven. Treat pride as an evil that has to be killed off. Pride is the most evil characteristic of the flesh. It is pride that led to Satan’s fall. This is the pride that was crucified at the Cross when Jesus slew the enemy by submitting Him self to the Cross. The devil rejoiced but he fell when Jesus reversed the curse and rose from the dead. Pride was given a death blow at the Cross. Now you can apply this by faith to your pride and embrace the humility of Christ. Make humility a goal to be pursued. This is to treat others as better then yourself.

JOY
Precious are the moments with the Lord for He takes all your pain away and gives you joy. His joy is so effervescent that it overflows and touches others. It cannot be contained in fleshly vessels because it overflows and does not evaporate. It is the fruit of the Spirit just like love and peace. It is an everlasting joy. It empowers you just like petrol empowers a car to run the race and never fails. Joy is a fruit of the Spirit which you can have always and it will extinguish all negativity. Come to the river of joy and be refreshed. Today what the world needs is joy fir negativity fills the air. There is too much stress because the world is aching and breaking into pieces. The joy of the Lord is your strength during these turbulent times. Come and be refreshed and enjoy the joy of the Lord.

HELL
The enemy is at work to destroy the church. The church must be vigilant and pray for unity at all times. The flesh is weak but by the Spirit it is possible to overcome the flesh. When you do so then the Spirit will prevail through you. All you need to do is surrender. The rest is the work of the Spirit. This is the reason Jesus sent His Holy Spirit to dwell in you. He knew that it is impossible to live a life free of hassle because the flesh is so weak. Defensive walls keep the flesh in check but the walls will crumble when the going gets rough. Walls are just that and some are better then others but most cannot stand a tsunami of distress. Death and violence usually result and hell waits for everyone. This is why the gospel has to spread and save those who will listen. Never mind those who turn away, your responsibility is to spread the word through life and word. Come Holy Spirit and possess me today for your mission to save lives from hell.

LIFE STYLE
Happy is the man who waits on the Lord. Walking by faith is a life style. You are so confident that God will come through for you every time. He will speak through you. You have no other agenda then for Him to use you anytime and anywhere. What a life style of grace when there is total dependence on God. No more worries because all your worries and burdens are carried by Him. You just are content to be His channel of grace. Your whole being will resonate with God. He will think and feel through you. No more defensiveness because all your weaknesses are consumed in Him. You only have to defend what is weak in you. In Him you are complete and therefore there is nothing more you can do then rest in full surrender. All your diseases are consumed in Him. Wealth or fame does not faze you because you are wealthy and famous in Him. Pride is killed off because His humility clothes you. You reject all evil, lusts and the pride of life. You follow your Master by submitting to Him whole heartedly. This is life in the overflow, abundant life.

TOTAL COMMITTMENT
Absolute trust in the Lord is the only way to move forward in faith. Trusting Him with your whole being and not wavering. Commitment is a strong word but there is no other way. To receive maximum thrust in your faith you must have total commitment. Jesus asked this of the disciples and there is no other way. In any venture total commitment results in maximum vantage. Like a jet, the thrust lifts it up into the air and it breaks the power of gravity. So also you can break through to new realms when you thrust forward like a jet. Imagine your faith penetrating the darkness and entering the realm of the heavenlies. In that space there is a new vision of what is possible in Him. All is available, only believe and it will be possible. Now prepare to fly as you give all to Him who gave all to you.

HE LIVES IN YOU
Openness leads to a heart that gives and gives till it is spent. Jesus gave and He never stops giving. His death did not stop Him because it opened up a higher form of giving, His own life in exchange. He sent His Holy Spirit to abide in us so that all the gifts and fruits could abide in us. He possesses all of them and so you have all of them because He resides in you. Your flesh will fight against this because your flesh wants to do things its own way. Human giving is limited but God’s giving lasts. He is in you for eternity. He goes with you as He abides in you. Just as the Father is in Jesus so the 3 are in you through the person of the Holy Spirit. He resides in your spirit. What greater gift then this is there? Now you can live a supernatural life because He lives in you.
Wednesday, March 23, 2011
REPENTANCE
Repentance is the key to salvation in all areas of life. Without repentance there is no movement forward. Many get stuck because they rationalise rather then repent. Repentance is good for your soul as it cleanses you and restores you to wholeness. It is not just saying sorry but really turning away from your sin and putting your flesh to death. Confession of sin leads to repentance. When sin is not confessed then it is hidden and works its damage. It causes fear to arise in you and fear causes damage. Repentance dispels fear for you are confronting it through confession. You bring to the light your sin and it is dissolved. Sin is spiritual and emotional and therefore affects your spirit and your emotions. Repentance frees you spiritually and emotionally. Pray for a spirit of repentance so that you are always walking in repentance. Your defences will drop and you will be open. transparent and free.

MIND
Overcome and be a spear in the hands of the Lord. To overcome is to overcome your enemies in your mind. Your mind is the battlefield of your overcoming. Once you are able to still your mind then you have the ability to overcome. Let the Holy Spirit fight your battles. In the end it is the Lord who will decide on your honours. Man is limited in his ability to judge because he has to fight his own battles. God is free from these battles and so can judge rightly. Man is coloured in his judgement by his own beliefs. When you let go and let God work through you then you will see a way through. Surrender all your battles to the Lord. The more you do so the less your stress and the more freely you will move in power and strength.
Monday, March 21, 2011
FAITH
Faith has many levels. When you break through to the next level more will be revealed to you. To walk by faith is to depend on God for everything. This means trusting Him and expecting that He knows what is best. This does not mean that you don’t plan but it does mean that ultimately all outcomes are left in His hands. This is the way to live a stress free life. Your flesh will war against this because it wants to control everything. When you have died to your flesh then there will be no resistance to God’s plan. All you need to do is to rest in His hands. Your life in His hands is the best place to be. Here there is peace and no war. Where there is war then you know that someone else is in control. Give up all to Him and find the peace that passes all understanding. All your diseases will be healed and you will be free indeed.

CLEANSED
You are purged clean by the blood that flows freely from heaven’s throne to your heart. This is what happens when you walk in the light as He is in the light. All your burdens are lifted. Your past and your present washed clean and now you can walk into the future free. What a life of freedom in the spirit. Your flesh will continue to breed negativity but you will overcome in the spirit. Your spirit man is in contact with God and He determines the times and the seasons. He decides what will happen and His people who are open to Him will hear and respond. Come to Him who knows the end from the beginning. He is with you and in you and you have nothing to fear. His angels surround you and guard you from destructive forces. You are able to go and do what you have been called to do in His Name. Therefore enter the fray and move in His power and be swayed. Power from on high will be given to you and much will be the glory to His Name.
Friday, March 18, 2011
DISCERNMENT
Praise the Lord for He gives you insight into matters of the heart. The heart is the centre of your being. From your heart arises all the thoughts and feelings. When you are able to discern your heart rightly then you will be able to govern yourself well. The heart wanders to different places and thinks and feels as it pleases. It is sensitive to the energy around you. It picks up the field of energy around you. It affects how you think and feel. When you discern rightly then you will be able to think clearly. All these thoughts and feelings bombard your psyche. You need to be sensitive to these but also determine what you will act on. Use your senses to discern and you will move in a new dimension of sensing the real from the unreal. Your senses distort reality and give you an impression which you need to separate from the real. A glass of water you will see but you need discernment to know what is in the water. What is in the water will determine if it is pure or adulterated. So also many things appear nice but what is in it is what needs to be discerned. Ask God for the gift of discernment so that you will know what is good and what is adulterated. Adulteration of the truth is what the media will give you. You need to remain still and not react to what you see and hear. In this way you will show that you are controlled by the Spirit and not by man.

DEATH HAS LOST ITS STING
Praise God who dwells amongst the nations and is in charge. In these days of turmoil it is good to know that God is in control. Nothing else will do as this is His world and we are His creation. The devil is not in total control for he is doomed for hell. He is a deceiver and he will deceive till he takes the masses with him to hell. Only the blood washed children of the Saviour of the world can survive this time. They know Him who called them into His fold. They are covered and will be safely taken home to be with the Lord. Death stings but in Him it is a sweet smelling perfume. Death is a transition to eternal life. Blessed are those who are destined for this inheritance in Him.

GOD IS IN CONTROL
Many will be the turmoil and turbulence in the world but the Lord is in control over all. God knows the end from the beginning. He has planned for all things to work together for good. The people of Israel will turn their hearts and return to the Lord. The people who say there is no God will turn and look to Him. God has made man in His image and man cannot live without Him. This is why God is in control for man is in His hands to do as He pleases. Man is just a creation of God yet God has given His power to rule and to reign. Only when man rules in God’s way will he prosper. Man without God is doomed to fail as all of nature will be against him. In God’s hands you are a weapon for good. Therefore be His and live like you mean it.
Sunday, March 13, 2011
GOD'S LIGHT
God’s light will shine on you and this is His manifest glory. Just as you experienced the light on your conversion so you will experience this light again each time you are tempted. The devil will work through the agency of your flesh because this is where the battle lies. Your mind is the main platform for battles to be fought. Just like the arena where lions were fought so also your mind is the arena where battles will be won and lost. When you see His light then the devil will retreat as he will be blinded by the light. The light of the gospel of light and life will penetrate the darkness and set the captive free. You are a captive of Satan’s lies and God’s truth will set you free from his lies.

SPIRIT WORLD
Transcending beyond your limits is the only way to break through barriers of your mind. Barriers have been constructed over time and revival will come as these barriers are broken. When you enter the world of the Spirit you enter a realm beyond the physical. You usher in the unknown world of the spirit to invade your mind. You are released from those barriers and you enter into the world of the spirit. Here anything is possible for God dwells in this realm. You enter the throne room of God. Healings and miracles happen. You realise you have entered a different realm. You have come to the place of high expectancy. Here you feel secure for the devil has no place here. All your worries and cares melt away. You become like light, fully transparent. No need for defences for everything is laid bare in His presence. You realise that you are clean in His presence. The blood of Jesus cleanses you. God has done it all for you. You rest from your labours and all tension melts away. What bliss and tranquillity there is in His presence. You realise you are dead to the flesh and its longings. What a life, what a destiny.
Friday, March 11, 2011
WALK THE TALK
Praise be to God who makes all things new. He grants you favour because in Him you can ask anything in His Name and it will be done for you. He lavishes His love over you and there is nothing that He will hold back from you. He is a God of abundance and in Him you will find abundant life. Go out today knowing that He lives in you. You are a temple of the living God. His Spirit lives and moves in you to manifest His glory. Every time you open your mouth know that He is in you and He will speak through you. It is not knowledge that you need but wisdom. Many have knowledge but lack the wisdom to apply it. Application is what brings about change. When knowledge is applied then change occurs. Many are too lazy or complacent to apply their knowledge. The church suffers deprivation for it has a lot of knowledge but lacks application. Knowledge is useless without application. Daniel knew and he applied his knowledge and survived. This is the difference between those who talk the walk and walk the talk. Walk your talk today and move mountains for God. His Spirit in you will help you to do so and bring life to dead bones.

STAND
Life is a roller coaster ride and many fall off it. This is because their ride is buffeted by circumstances that push them over the limit. Only internal resilience can enable you to overcome the temptations and challenges from within and without. The temptation is to give in when the going gets rough. However giving in does no one any favours, least of all yourself. Therefore hang in there and never relent as things will change when you remain fixed in your position. When you get caught up with the changes then all you do is go round in circles. There is nothing new under the sun. All is a reshaping and reordering of things. It appears as change but relatively little changes. Therefore stick to what you know and you will find that you will run a steady course.

COMMUNITY SPIRIT
Happy is the man who trusts in the Lord and not in himself. Self confidence can lead you away from God. This world is poorer because it has sort to go its own way and seek to do it alone. This is the spirit of this world. This is why there is so much loneliness in the world. Everyone has gone their own way to do it their way and in the end found themselves left alone. The way out of this trap is to think community. When you think community then you look for what will benefit the whole rather then you. In a dog eat dog world the loss of community spirit leads to all kinds of evil. Selfishness is in everyone and it takes an enlightened person to transcend the evil of selfishness. Without God the evil will penetrate the psyche of the nation. This is why governments are crucial in determining how the people will respond to crises. The crisis in a nation will indicate the type of spirit that will respond. A selfish spirit will turn inward while a selfless spirit will turn outward. The spirit that controls the nation also influences the individual. Pray much for a spirit of community so that the nation will move forward rather then break up into pieces. This is what is happening in nations where dictators have ruled and now the evil that has bred for years will manifest itself in the crumbling of the nations.

OCCUPATION
Forever the same is He who sits on the throne. God is there seated on His throne and ruling the world. He knows everything about everything and He knows what is right and good for you. In Him alone can you be safe and in Him is your salvation. How do people live without knowledge of Him? They just exist in a world of things. Things have replaced what they really should know because this material world is occupied with things. When things take over your life then you become like the thing that occupies you. Things are temporary so your sense of being is limited to the time of the thing. Things change and in time what was the in thing becomes nothing. However God is eternal and when you occupy your time with Him then He becomes your all. You become like who you occupy your time in. Whatever possesses you occupies you. Let the Holy Spirit occupy you and you will become like Him.

BELIEF
Happy is the man who trusts in the Lord and not in his own abilities. God is above all and there is nothing that can take His place. As long as He is in the centre then there is nothing that you need to fear. He is there to help you make the mark. What is left now for you to do is to sing His praises. Nothing else matters, the past, present and future are all hid in Him. Therefore enter the fray knowing that He is Lord of all. In Him all things hold together and only in Him is there life. This is the only reason for living, for in Him all things are made new. What is life but a whisper, for in death all is consumed. Man fights for meaning and is prepared to die for his beliefs. Nothing else matters and this is why belief is so important. If you believe then this is what will sustain you through tough times. Not to believe is to court death. Belief is what makes man different from animals.

HE KNOWS
Many like to think they know it all but fail to see that what they know is only their perception. Come to the One who knows all and you will be saved from such an end. There is so much that is unknown that what is known is open to question. What if suddenly you find that the world you know is not so? Someone discovers that the world that we know is really a myth. We have created this world so that we can have some order. A flat world became a round world. What holds the water together? What keeps things stable although we are moving? What holds the stars from falling down? There is so much that is unknown yet God knows. He holds the stars and the moon and the sun. The God factor holds things together. Yet man thinks he knows it all. I am struck in awe and wonder when I think of all these things. I just marvel at his handiwork and say, Oh God. Then I awake and say my God. Now I know that anything is possible because He is God. Therefore I will live in hope and look to Him for everything. I will rest in Him who knows everything.

YOUR LIFE IS ONLY A BREATH AWAY FROM DEATH
Help is on the way for those who cry to the Lord. He is the ever present Master who delights to give when all seems lost. In this world you will face a lot of misery but be of good cheer for I have overcome the world. The world as it is will one day fade away. All that remains will be dust. Man was made from dust and will return to dust. All the learning and knowledge will not save man from death. This is the sorry end of man unless he repents and returns to his Creator. Yet man is so stubborn and prefers to die then obey. Obedience is the test of humility. A man, who obeys, trusts the One who he obeys. There is no obedience without trust. To trust and obey is to be in complete surrender to God. He lives in you and each moment is precious to you when you realise that it is a moment given to you. Your breath can be removed in a second. This is all you are, a breath away from death. Therefore be grateful and gracious for the breath you have. God gives and He takes away, blessed be His Name.

MIND CONTROL
Unto the Lord be all glory and power and blessing. He is the One who calls you and appoints you and will see you through to the end. He is the Father of all and His mercy and grace surrounds you. Many are the structures in your mind that restricts you. Now is the time to let them all go. These structures cause you to be imprisoned in a state of apprehension as fear keeps them immovable. Now you can bring them down as His love invades your space. When you surrender all to Him then He moves in to dismantle these structures of your mind. He will then infuse you with His love. His love will remove these structures and replace them with His presence. His presence is all you need for in Him you don’t need structures. Structure is only required for your ego to feel safe. Once you have released self control to His control then you become a free agent of His love. Man not dependent on God is an enemy to himself without knowing it. You become unconscious to the processes of your mind. Your mind then dictates your moods and thoughts and usurps your will. Your will then determines the outcome of your life. This sometimes ends in tragedy. A mind controlled by the ego is susceptible to despair for it gets tired of itself. All it does is go round in circles over the same old things that occupy the mind. The mind cannot sit still, for sitting still is like death. It will deny death by remaining active and delude itself through such activity. So life becomes a merry go round till it wastes itself and dies.

MIND CONTROL
The Lord is overall and in His presence is peace everlasting. The mind will always doubt but the spirit will move out in faith. So don’t be distracted by your mind that will provide excuses. Once you are able to disconnect with your mind then you will find it easier to operate in the spirit. For most people their problem is with their mind. Their mind will bring up all kinds of issues to distract you from operating from presence. Presence is the silence behind the mind. The mind wants to control but it needs the form of thought to control. Thoughts are a distraction for they come from different sources. In the spirit you come into His presence and in His presence you are not controlled by your thoughts but by His thoughts. Your mind will resist His thoughts but He is in control and therefore He will always win. Subjection to His Spirit in you will enable you to overcome mind control. Once people realise this then they will want to be in His presence at all times. This is the only way to overcome the mind. Others will try to control you using their mind power but you will not be controlled by them when you respond from your spirit man. Many fall in the hands of others because their minds give in to them. In the Spirit you can be in command and overcome in all situations. This is the spiritual war and only can be overcome through His Spirit.

TRUE FREEDOM
A bright future awaits you as you wait on the Lord to lead you. This is just the beginning of great things to come. God will allow you to go through tough times so that you will be able to empathise with situations that others go through. This is what it means to fellowship with His sufferings. This is a fellowship to victory and not for the sake of it. Jesus suffered so that through His suffering He was able to identify with suffering humanity. The whole world is facing a time of suffering. The earth is also groaning. All these are signs of an awakening. Many have been lulled into a sense of security through materialism. This is all being shaken at this time so that man will awaken from his illusion. Come to the Lord for only in Him is a safe refuge. In times of struggle you can depend on Him. He washes you and cleanses you and brings you to the place of liberty. Many regimes try to control but true liberty is internal. This is the freedom that Christ came to bring. This is the gospel, the good news that all need to hear.
