RULE AND REIGN

Facing the enemy is like being thrown into the lions den. Daniel faced the lion by surrendering all to God who closed the eyes and the mouth of the lions. So also only when you walk in total surrender will you be able to survive the attacks. The enemy comes in like a roaring lion but his roar is louder then his bite. He roars only to frighten because he has lost his sting. His sting is death but Jesus has overcome death and the fires of hell. Now you are on the side of heaven and therefore do not be deceived that you are in enemy territory. You are in God's territory and everywhere you go, you claim his territory for God. The enemy will make you think that you are in foreign land but you are not because you are anointed to rule where you are. Rule therefore in body, mind and spirit and see how the enemy of your soul will leave you in peace. Binding the works of darkness is your responsibility. Everything else will flow smoothly when the powers of darkness are bound.

HIT SIXES

This is the time to hit sixes against the devil. He has lost the war. He may win some battles but the fact remains that he is destined for hell while you are destined for heaven. So who cares about the battles when we know that the war has already been won. This is the strength we have as christians. The devil tempts and attacks everyone. He is no respecter of persons. His mission is to steal, kill and destroy. He will work through anyone who  allows anger and hatred to consume his heart. Unforgiveness is the door for many demons to invade you. Therefore walk in forgiveness. Love is forgiveness. There is no love if thee is no forgiveness. Agape love does not remember the hurts as love covers all. When you have experienced the love of God then nothing is too hard for you. Love covers a multitude of sins.

SALVATION IS NOW

Break through is the operative word at this time. God is moving in ways unheard of in the past to win the souls of millions into His Kingdom. There are no more barriers. The law cannot exclude anyone from entering His Kingdom. His Kingdom is love, joy and righteousness and all these are contained in Jesus. When you receive Jesus you receive the full inheritance. All other inheritance is partial. Other ways can satisfy but only partially. His salvation guarantees you eternal life and not just a happy earthly life. Life is more then death do us part. Jesus came to give us eternal life through His death. Money cannot buy this life for it is a spiritual life and only the Spirit can give it. Jesus came that all those who call on His Name can receive eternal life. This life is in God and not in flesh. Therefore connect with God today through jesus and be saved. Your salvation is guaranteed.

FREEDOM FROM THE FLESH

The flesh will not die because it is ruled by the senses. This is why only total surrender will do. You know the flesh is still alive because of your sins. You sin daily through thought, word and deed. These are signs that your flesh is still alive. A seed must die before it can bring forth life. So also its as your flesh is crucified daily that the new life in Christ can come forth. Just as Jesus had to die before He could rise again into resurrection life. This kind of death is only possible through the Spirit. No amount of self mutilation will kill the flesh. It is a faith position. I am crucified with Christ. I no longer live. Nevertheless I live. The life I now live, I live through the faith of the Son of God who died for me. What a paradox. Death means life. The two cannot subsist together. This is the daily battle and who wins depends on your position. In the flesh or in Christ. You are filled in the Spirit and walk by the Spirit. Many are filled in the Spirit but walk by the flesh. Hallelujah I am now free because Christ Jesus has set me free. 

LIFE IS IN THE SPIRIT

Oh to be used by the Lord. What a privilege and honour it is to be used by the Lord. He is the vine and I am a branch. He feeds me and I grow leaves and bear fruit for others to be fed and be nourished. What a picture of the union between the father and the son. I am just a product of the father. What the father is I am. The likeness of the father is seen in the son. So Jesus came as the Son of God and portrayed His Father in heaven on earth. Now I am to portray the image of my Father in heaven through the Holy Spirit who is the Spirit of Jesus living in me. All I have to do as a branch is to submit to Him and He will do the rest. When I submit to him, I die to my self. Only death to self can result in life in Him. The two cannot live together for the flesh is against the Spirit. But even in this God has given me the way of escape from the urges of the flesh. He has given me the sword of the Spirit which is the Word of God to subdue my flesh and the devil. All the weapons I need are available to me and become powerful when I surrender to Him. Come Holy Spirit and fill me afresh today.

HE NEVER FAILS

God is in control and so you have no cause to worry or fear. These two enemies of your soul seek to cripple you in your walk of faith. Worry is a lack of faith. You worry only when you feel that you will lose out or not make it. When you know that God is in control and that He knows the end from the beginning, then you will be able to cast all your worries on to Him. He cares for you more then you can ever know. He purchased you with a price, His own life. He is with you all the time  and therefore when things appear to be against you, know He is for you. Hallelujah His Spirit will comfort you and guide you and you will be amazed. Looking at your past must assure you of His hand on your life. He never fails.

DAILY MANNA

The Lord is over all and in His presence is peace and joy. The joy of the Lord is your strength. He keeps those who are His and He ministers to those who call on His Name. God directs your thoughts so that you know what He is thinking. When you share His thoughts they become bread to the hungry. Those who desire to hear the Lord will listen. Those who are blind and deaf will not hear or see. The Lord opens the eyes of the blind and the ears of the deaf. Therefore pray that your eyes will be open and your ears will hear His voice. His voice is like manna to your soul. The Israelites waited for their daily manna from the Lord when they were in the desert. You are in a desert place and the Lord will feed you. You will feel nourished and healthy because you are rich.

HIS WORD

The holy anointing oil of the Holy Spirit is poured over you. You have the anointing of David and you must go in the Holy Spirit to do as David did. He fought his enemies and brought them down one by one. His defeat of Goliath was one giant of an enemy who cursed the army of God. So all your enemies will be made a footstool for the Lord of the armies of heaven are behind you. Do not fear for He is with you all the time. Listen to his now word to you and be encouraged. When you do not hear from Him then know that He is still with you. He will speak when you need His word. His now word is a revelatory word. It abolishes all other words. God's word is the last word on a matter. No more discussions. His word is sent to cut through the morass of conflicting thoughts and opinions. The word of God is sharper then any 2 edged sword. Therefore speak forth His written word and His now word when faced with the enemy. Like David fill your sling with His powerful word and let His word do the job of destruction. The enemy will flee from you when you use His word. Your words have no effect on the enemy. His word is spirit and life.

SEASON OF BLESSING

Time for God's season of blessing. His word is true and comes through at the right time. Now I have to hold on to His word and His promises and see the blessings come through. God expects us to walk by faith. This means not seeing but seeing before things appear in the physical realm. I see in the spiritual first before it manifests in the material. This is how God created the worlds. He saw and spoke the word and saw the worlds formed. Man also operates in this realm through visions and dreams. He sees and then speaks forth the word in faith and waits to see the word being performed. God's word performs. When you speak the healing word it goes forth and performs that spoken word. The Holy Spirit is the workman who works the word into being. You are just His instrument that plays the tune. The tune is heard and faith rises and accepts the now word and believes. Mary believed the word and it was life for her. Be it unto me according to your word Lord.

VIEW OTHERS AS SEPARATE FROM YOURSELF

View people as separate from yourself. This separation allows others to feel respected and not an extension of you. This is especially so for close relationships. When others feel treated as extensions of your self then they will resist this and rebel. Children will rebel against this as part of their separation and individuation process. Spouses will also resist this and want to separate. It will feel suffocating to be an extension of another. You need to be able to express your own thoughts and feelings and not be bullied to accept what others say.When you are able to be free in a relationship then you are accepted for who you are. When one enters a family you will know how it feels to be in the family. If suffocated then you know there is a dominant person who treats others as extensions of themselves. There needs to be structure without dominance. Structure serves to enable the family to fulfil its function. A clear structure enables individuals to function without losing their identity. A structural analysis enables one to assess how a group functions. A group with clear boundaries functions as a system that will communicate clearly and not be overwhelmed by feelings. Feelings are kept in control within a system with clear boundaries. Unclear boundaries leads to chaos and feelings control the system. Clarifying boundaries is the key to functional living.

RESURRECTION POWER

Hallelujah. Everything of the flesh conspires to depress you while everything of the Spirit aspires to encourage and empower you. Listen to the Spirit and shut the flesh up. The flesh is so influenced by your senses and your senses by the environment. When you operate in the Spirit you are controlled by the Spirit. When you are walking in the flesh you are controlled by fleshly thoughts. Therefore your only escape is in the Spirit. The Holy Spirit is in you and He will lead you when you submit to Him. To be led by the Spirit is bliss. To be led by the flesh is confusion. This is why only resurrection power will do. In resurrection power you move above the chaos of the world. You are like Christ and when you move in His resurrection power. This power is yours when you are filled in the Spirit. You can expect anything and all things are possible in His power. Come to the river and be refreshed. Only resurrection power can help you overcome all the pressures you face in and out. His power is available to all who will seek Him. Come Holy Spirit and possess me for you live in me.

NOW

God speaks as you tune into Him. Just come into His presence now and do not let your mind wander away from the present. The present is the only reality you know and need. Tomorrow is just a mist and yesterday a memory. It is today and the present moment that counts. In the present moment you can think and feel and know His presence. The way to commune with God is in the present. He will then down load His thoughts and feelings into you. So now separate yourself and be in His presence. See how your mind will clear as you focus on the now. He will enter your now and He will commune with you. Thoughts will flow into you and it is as if a light bulb suddenly comes on. The darkness turns into light. The light of His presence invades your being. You become light and all your thoughts become clear and bold. You become substance and begin to feel His creation. This is what is real. All else is fantasy. Fantasy is a creation of your mind. This never lasts and is a substitute for the real. Why live in fantasy when the real is what is eternal? Yet the mind prefers to escape into fantasy for the reality is too hard to bear. This escape into fantasy will never make you strong. In the Spirit you will live in the real and not in the false.

SEEING THE END VICTORIOUSLY

The finish line is what is important. You know what it looks like because you know you are on the winning side. What is happening now is not as important because you know you are going to win in the end. Nothing can stop you now for you know how it will all end, as a winner. How good is that? Jesus knew His end from the beginning. He knew that His Father knew what was best. When He ascended into heaven He sent His Holy Spirit to fill us so that we too may have the same vision of the end as He had. This is what made giants out of weak men who turned the world upside down. What are you waiting for. The world is waiting for you. Unless you do it no one else is going to do it. Go and save as many as possible from the fires of hell before it is too late. Now is the opportune time to strike. The world is heating up and heading for destruction as it loses its map and turns into itself. Shine as His light and turn the hearts of the lost to Him that they too may find Him and be saved.

THE OVERCOMER LIVES IN YOU

The overcomer lives in you. What a powerful word is this? He lives in you and so you have power to overcome all things. Sin has no more power over you. All you need to do is submit to His power in you. This is the easy way God has established for you through the death of Christ on the Cross. His blood now cleanses you continuously and you have no need to worry but only to surrender to His will. Jesus said take my yoke upon you for it is easy and light. When we choose to carry our burden then it will be heavy and hard. He carries our burdens on the Cross and therefore we can travel light. Why carry unnecessary burden when He has carried all on the Cross. All we have to do is believe and receive. But this is too easy for the flesh which seeks to burden you with worry and care. The flesh cannot rest for it is controlled by sin. The spirit can rest for it is controlled by the Holy Spirit. Now choose to be controlled by the Holy Spirit and live.

MAN REJECTS GOD

Man was made to worship God. Man's needs are met through God his Creator. How can man live without God? There will always be a void in man's heart if he rejects God. This void must be filled. Only the Spirit can fill this void. When man rejects God, he rejects himself because he has rejected his Creator. Man is saying I am my own boss. In this is the fall of man. Adam rejected God and fell. Lucifer rejected God and fell. When man rejects God he will be swayed by other gods that are self made to please man. So the story repeats itself through the generations and man never changes. He cannot change for sin has possession of him. Now the only way out for man is through Jesus who came to redeem man from his sin soaked state. In Jesus we are freed from the terror of sin. We are filled in His Spirit and come home. So come Lord Jesus and fill this house and be my Lord.

SAVIOUR OF ALL

Hallelujah what a God we have. He is the Alpha and Omega of our faith. He is ever near and a daily help in all our struggles. He is forever Yahweh. He is my Father and your Father. There is nothing that can separate us from His love. His love under girds us and His love keeps us moving in faith. It is because of His love that we have hope for tomorrow. His love sustains us through the trials and tribulations we face daily. Lord thank you for your love. Love is a foundation that keeps us firm in faith. Love cannot be bought. Love is. You know love in your heart and your heart responds in love to the needs around you. Without love the human heart will fail. They say love keeps the world moving. I say God's love keeps the world moving. Without God there is no hope because everything will one day die. Death is the only thing we can be sure of without God. Jesus overcame death and therefore we have hope of a new life and death has lost its sting. Now rejoice and be glad for He lives today to save. Call on Him and be glad for He is the Saviour of the Lord. Only He can unite the sinner and the saint. He is the Redeemer of all mankind. Pray that all we call on Him and be saved. Salvation belongs to the Lord.

TOTAL SURRENDER

God is at work in you to will and to do has so empowered me to know that it is His work and and not mine. All He requires is total surrender so that He can do His work in me unhindered. Self refuses to die and this is a life long battle of surrender. We can die to the world and everyone else but to die to self is the battle that rages on. Only way is to apply our will to the Cross so that His will can be in control. Jesus is the only one and not the first. The first means that there are others. Only means there is no other. This must be your commitment or else something will always come in between.When the Spirit has total control then you will walk in the glory of the Lord. His glorious presence will so engulf you that nothing else can take its place. Lord come now should be the cry of your heart. It is His presence that will transform lives. Come Lord Jesus and transform my life today to be a glorious emblem of your presence.

TO WILL AND TO DO

God is at work in you to will,that is, to make you willing, and to do, that is. to help you to do, according to His good pleasure Phil 2:13. What a powerful verse to know that He is the One who is doing it through us. We have no power but He has all power. All we need to do is surrender to his will. It is so easy when we come to the place of total surrender. He knows our weakness in the flesh and He knows we need help. He has promised to help us and all we have to do is trust Him to do. I love it because He is my Helper and friend. Is there anyone like Him? No other religion can say this because they are based on rules and regulations. Rules and regulations do not work because the flesh is against it. Now the Spirit can work through our will to help us do according to His good pleasure. It pleases God when we are in the centre of His will. Others may laugh at us like they did when Noah built the Ark. Who had the last laugh? It was too late then for all perished. Now God has made it possible to live an abundant life in Him through His Spirit. All we have to do is submit to Him. Call on the Name of Jesus and you will do and not despair.

MORAL COMPASS

Praise God who sends people at the right time to encourage, exhort and lead into new hope and challenge. The church needs to be revived to answer the call to evangelise. The world is rapidly going down the slide of moral depravity and will end in suicide. When morality loses ground then what replaces it will be like Sodom and Gomorrah. There will be all kinds of evil activity and people will live for themselves. All your base desires will emerge to express itself in sexual and murderous ways. This is the path to self destruction. It is already happening in individuals, families and nations. What you are witnessing around the world is the loss of a compass to keep the nations growing and flourishing. Instead nations have turned in amongst themselves and are on the path to self destruct. This happens when a nation loses its moral compass. The Bible was the moral compass for many nations. Now it is being discarded for other less moral rules which are self made and to suit base desires. Base desires come to the fore when morality slips. Your conscience becomes seared and you mould with your environment. This is what history has taught us yet we blindly go down the same path again and again. It is as if the next generation has not learnt from the past. The story of Israel exemplifies this trend. Lord help us stem this tide of moral degradation now.

PASSION

Prayer is your life line with God. A life line is like a blood line that nourishes you and processes all that needs to be excreted. All that is not of God will be excreted and that which is of God will nourish your soul.Through prayer you have this vital communication with your Creator. He will reveal His mind to you and you will discern what is good and His will for you. As you surrender your will to Him, His will becomes your will. You then become like Him as you are united in one Spirit. The Holy Spirit will feel and speak through you. He will bring to your remembrance the things of God and enlighten your mind. This enlightening leads to action.Action follows revelation. If there is no revelation then all you have is letters that mean nothing and therefore will not lead to action. Revelation results in passion and passion results in action. The revelation may come in the form of vision or word but it needs to activate passion to propel you forward. Passion is the work engine of the vision being realised. So pray and be in touch and be involved in His world.
