48. “Memo to the Called”

The pride of life & the things of this world forces its priority on us. Only as He is lifted on high all who wills to “see” will be drawn unto Him and He will be glorified! Hailed by all of creation! Worshipped as the Great I am !

Pride of Life…

Extreme is the task that lays ahead,
Gross the calamity of our flesh, soul and sinful dread,
Weaknesses that ensnares our path,
And, oh, the pride of life that tempts in our head.

Man of God…

Oh, man of God lay down your crown!
Rather dare to follow The Son instead
His ways are pure, His words are truth,
He speaks of love amongst many other gracious worth.

Before His Throne…

Have you yet considered the moment before His Throne?
When asked what did you do with love?
How many days was self your lead?
Now to reveal your recited self-righteous creed.

Feed His sheep…

Low we bow before Your greatness, Lord,
To lay down our crowns and sword,
How fallible our greatest speech,
And yet you send us to feed Your sheep.

Forgive us Lord…

Strengthen now our feeble knees,
Burn our lips with cleansing coals,
We want to make Your kingdom proud,
Not many days to sow Your Seed.

Only when Christ is lifted High…

So many still need to ‘see’ The Seed,
Grace in action our strongest feed,
His Blood was shed – not to be trample on,
Only when He is lifted up will more men come…

… In truthful worship at His feet.

Alna@T 5.3.24

Scripture reading:

Joh 12:31-38
(31)  Now is the judgment of this world; now the ruler of this world will be cast out.
(32)  And I, if I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all peoples to Myself.”
(33)  This He said, signifying by what death He would die.
(34)  The people answered Him, “We have heard from the law that the Christ remains forever; and how can You say, ‘The Son of Man must be lifted up’? Who is this Son of Man?”
(35)  Then Jesus said to them, “A little while longer the light is with you.

Walk while you have the light, lest darkness overtake you; he who walks in darkness does not know where he is going.

(36)  While you have the light, believe in the light, that you may become sons of light.” These things Jesus spoke, and departed, and was hidden from them.
(37)  But although He had done so many signs before them, they did not believe in Him,
(38)  that the word of Isaiah the prophet might be fulfilled, which he spoke: “LORD, WHO HAS BELIEVED OUR REPORT? AND TO WHOM HAS THE ARM OF THE LORD BEEN REVEALED?”

46. Man at W-R with G-d and Man

Man is at w-r with G-d and Man

As we wage w-r with man and sinful seed our own lives are measured for faithful deeds. The standard being His humbled birth and selfless lead…

– Align then to His humble Birth

Nations are at w-r
and People are fighting!
Throwing words and b-mbs
Seek resolve in g-n-blaze lightning

This folly makes me wonder…
Even more so – to ponder
What is their ‘just’ thinking
This might then dissolve?

How angry are they really!
How much anger is yet to come?
Is this not the rage against
The G-d… they too belong?

Wise counsel to steer the way
Yet, No answer to our frantic prayers!
Angry at This G-d – unmoved
by our demanding charade!

Controversial challenges
Leave us unsettled and unnerved
He seemed not to care, to dare…
Left us dabbling in our despair

For this is not an easy weight
to wear His golden crown
Facing human-stumbles on our path,
reveal our fickle ground…

How rich would you have been,
Without … sincere humbling?
Relentless yield to a Higher Hand
Expose the flaws within

How angry are you really!
Perhaps enraged against This G-d
For no display of tempered clay …
But teaching us obey – HIS ways!

And now…

The poor soul at his Cross, himself
Stand in your way to Ego-Bay
Being the foe… all hell-break-loose;
And none of these to us pertain?

How angry are you really!
Why so deepened in dismay,
Have you looked into your Father’s eyes,
Witness’d grace, His Lovin’ embrace…?

[- for all He has made.]

And even so and maybe yet
It’s not a man,
But G-d…
Standing in your zealous way
At w-r; fought in your stead.

If you so would belong to (your)self
For once adhere His urgent tell!
You could have been at High-Horse-Down,
already really dead!

As yet…

His love and mercy, in and through (us)
Truth’s only source to make us new
In guilt and shame, we all fall short…
‘His glory and renown

You have a name, yes! You are of worth
But so the next, and next man down your curve
A spoken premise, is yet to be lived
In sole-align to His humble birth

Still to Him our love to prove
As weighed in even-scale domain
For the measure of His fullness’ shaped
Is found amongst the dust… and fruit

To dust… from dust, let this be known
This is His Holy Grail
Found on the trodden path
in blood-stained steps
This is…
His Holy ground!

‘This is…’ – another / every human being’s God-given life

41. Word of Encouragement : BUT GOD – HE IS!

31.7.23
WORD of ENCOURAGEMENT for YOU: BUT GOD – HE IS!

I trust and pray with my whole heart that you are well.

In relation with the strategic mission of SABACKTOGOD Ministries… the Lord has laid it deep in my heart that we will pray into the 8 spheres of society.

CALL TO PRAYER

It is crucial that we lift up our voices in PRAYER and rise up, where we can, to have an influence directly into these 8 gates of society.

Many of you/us are battle weary…and can’t even think where to get the strength and energy to pray these days with the same fervor… let alone to go and do!

The enemy has attacked us from all sides… and the many distractions in our daily lives are tiring our souls to the point that we want to let go of our guard and our prayers of petition and intercession.

And yet we KNOW that PRAYER, together with a sound mind, power, and love that He has given us.. is the way…

BUT GOD ♎ ‼️

He will give us His strength again. He will gird up our loins with His vigor and Spirit Armor. God will be our flank on the sides and our rearguard prayer.

HE IS the victory!
HE IS the battle already won!
HE is the answer!
He is the perfect END to our destiny and mission.
He is our strength and focussed vision!!!

And HE IS in the midst of our day to day walking out of every little step… by step.

He is our Help, our Guard, Guide and Glory.
HE IS the REWARD.
HE is the HOPE in our story…
He IS EVERY DAY!

NOT one day, HE IS not!

A CRITICAL MOMENT IN SOUTH AFRICA

It is a very crucial moment in the history of SA and our Father is relying on His kinsmen to rise up to the occasion and stand on the rampart. To decree into the spiritual realm what we want to see happening in the physical.

It is not the time to sink into the down bubble SIGHT of our soul dimension.
It is now the time to encourage each other to SEE and DECLARE according to the SIGHT from the higher heights of the EAGLE’S flight.

May you experience His ever-present presence, peace, and strength in this time.

Value and Appreciate you.

40. In Newness of the Spirit-Spiritual LEADERSHIP

Considerations on Spiritual LEADERSHIP
after the Global Lockdown
In the Newness of the Spirit

Scripture reference : IN the Newness of the Spirit
Serving God In the Newness of the Spirit

IN the Newness of the Spirit. We look at the now, much needed, new Spiritual Leadership after Lockdown. This need to originateFrom BEFORE GOD’S FACE -For HIS KINGDOM’S GLORY.

FOOD for THOUGHT:
“From BEFORE HIS FACE – For HIS KINGDOM’S GLORY

As we consider spiritual leadership after lockdown, we envisage

A NEW FACE OF THE TEMPLE
THE CHURCH – THE INDIVIDUAL MOBILIZED

a. ABSTRACT:


The current global scenario that we all are subject to, now creates an obvious & opportune time for RENEWING PERSONAL & CORPORATE VISIONS – in this divine Kairos season; to introduce Spiritual leadership in the “Newness of the Spirit”

“The NEW FACE OF THE TEMPLE
THE CHURCH Powerful – Through Every Believer
THE INDIVIDUAL MOBILIZED.”


b. INTRODUCTION:


Christ’s Kingdom’s Glory (a) need to be on the forefront of the believer’s now-end-time mission; individually & corporately.
The presumptuous disruption of our lives, the utter disordering from life as we know it and the way we’ve ‘done life & church’ in the past, now asks for – and presents a very natural occasion towards – refreshing current views & visions. This is a great opportunistic time – to be fully embraced in seizing the moment; for looking at things from a complete new, unfamiliar, decisive & experiential perspective.

c. RECITATION for CONSIDERATION

ORIGIN OF RECITATION – this recitation originated from:

Specific scriptures bringing conclusive insight and forming part of the backdrop of this dissertation.
Academic studies and its literature on ‘revised’ or ‘refined’ visions.
This script is also grounded in & founded on a Christ-Kingdom inspired search, for some answers to the Mandate of the Church’s End-Time Impact – for Kingdom Glory, through manifested Kingdom Glory, yet to be released.

5. FINAL APPRAISAL – SUMMARY – SCRIPTURES – COMMENTARIES- COMMENTS(Strongs)


RECITATION :

IN the NEWNESS of the SPIRIT

From BEFORE HIS FACE – For His KINGDOME GLORY

Rom 7:4, 6
4 Therefore, my brethren, you also have become dead to the law through the body of Christ, that you may be married to another—to Him who was raised from the dead, that we should bear fruit to God.
6 But now we have been delivered from the law, having died to what we were held by, so that we should serve in the newness of the Spirit and not in the oldness of the letter.

1. LOCKDOWN CHALLENGES & OPPORTUNITIES


Through all spheres of life, our reality has for ever been changed into a new unknown special consideration that requires new-wine; updated spiritual leadership. The known has been shaken & has been freed up from conformity to nominal perceptions of our existence and stale beliefs.

As individual believers and the Body of Christ in general, we need to look upon the mission ahead in a new fresh way – KAINOS. This is needed in order to accommodate, facilitate & maximize the current opportunity of the changed world.

THE MOMENT is HERE – OUR KAIROS TIME HAS COME

Ps 102

This is now the momentmaybe the last we might have – to seize the opportunity to change the status quo of redundant scenarios. To invoke the NEW WINE on a civilization, desperate in need for something new & real!
Even, if the old, set & faithful methods still work; is it what God is initiating now? Is this really what the Father has birthed through His Spirit for this moment? Or are we settling for 2nd best, that which is safe?


ARE WE WILLING to seize this new hour with an adventurous trust IN GOD? CAN we WAIT in FAITH on HIM to SHOW HIMSELF CREDIBLE in the very late BUT BRAND NEW hour ?

2. PRE-LOCKDOWN CHALLENGES & STRENGTHS


The Church has been preached to, trained, taught & equipped for years. We have been pew warmers for centuries.
Spiritual leadership has always been of utmost importance. Yet now it is more important than ever before.

REVIVAL in the CHURCH will start with the revived spirit of every Believer that has made a daily encounter with God by His Spirit, revealing His Word, their default – NOT settling for anything less!!

REVIVAL in the STREETS will start when the fire of the Holy Spirit burns so bright, even harsh. Through the lives & testimonies of the saints the very shadow of Him living inside of us will convict to repentance & draw all men to His unsurpassed grace.

Because Christ’s true love is displayed through us.

A) IN the Newness of the Spirit – SPIRITUAL MATURITY


As long as we keep people dependent by feeding mainly from outer-court menus, appeased with sight-seeing passivity, comfortable programs and non-challenging examples, the need for maturing (hearing, knowing, doing for yourself) will not be stimulated.

Dependency leaves the Believer’s own call to ‘feed’ others & evangelize the lost, even further behind as part of God’s mission for them.

Unless, we are challenged to step into that place of spiritual maturity; and take responsibility for our own personal faith-walk, people will keep on ‘passing the buck’. Or keep on believing that they are incapable to perform their commission.

• This is contrary to the scriptures: (b) “But solid food belongs to those who are of full age, that is, those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.”

B) IN the Newness of the Spirit – Biblical SOUND DOCTRINE to be embraced.


To NOT-share the relevance of hardships, trials & challenges of our faith walk, is not presenting to the Believer a Biblically sound doctrine and an all compassing theology. Such messages that neglect the above, presents a mediocre comfortable faith journey..

A seeker sensitive mentoring; lacking the truths about God’s judgement, wrath, righteousness, justice & grace…, do not help the believer in his/her own faith pursuit in their real-time challenges. (b. Psa 89:14)

• This soon has to change & will be a sudden shock to those who sit under erroneous preaching that mainly populate the pews by pleasing the ears; leading many astray in the process through defiled & compromised spiritual leadership.

Is the church maybe guilty of keeping babes in the pews? Have the mega-church concepts & grandeur individual pursuits been for too long, too much on the forefront?

• Being stuck in monotonous & repetitive religious rituals are the same as being under the spell of witchcraft & bondage of the Law of old. (c. Rom 7:4,6)

3. SUGGESTIONS FOR THE WAY FORWARD AFTER LOCKDOWN

We should now go & fulfil the End Time mandate for maximum CHURCH-IMPACT through His many new & different creative ways; by serving & to influence this world in the ‘Newness of the Holy Spirit’ being led in His authentic ways. This happens as we come before His face; when our sole focus for ‘doing church’ is for His Kingdom Glory.

• IF, His Kingdom GLORY – to do the Father’s will (a) – was the ONLY AUTHORIZED mandatory mission; would our End Time Faith Activities have looked different from the previous Faith Business Pursuits? (see annexure B & C below)

3.1 New WINE skins ask for New Wine – GOD’S AGENDA for the Church
“In the Newness of the Spirit – What is on God’s Agenda”

“WHAT will we hear as we come before Him, before His face, in the beauty of His Presence about His glory to be made renown !?”

Another read : “THE VOICE of the CHURCH has been SILENCED”

NOW is the TIME to LISTEN to WHAT THE SPIRIT IS SAYING!

Superficial faith menus leave people unfulfilled & dissatisfied with the doctrine of the church; it frustrates. Anything not shared genuine from the heart falls flat…

For the Spirit inside us cries out, deep unto deep, for the more of the ‘newness of the Spirit’.
One taste of the New Wine poured out deep into our spirit – the power and presence of the Holy Spirit – leaves us cold for anything that it is not.

Now is the TIME to QUIET OURSELES DOWN for INSIGHT & REVELATION.

We have to hear, see and observe; – so to speak ‘WITH WHAT’ & ‘WHERE’ God is busy. All Believers need to discern where His Holy Spirit is moving & what is now highlighted on His agenda.

• This won’t be found in the previous ways or by following past formats or formulas. The times have now truly & actually changed into more variations of the speedily changing world. The last ‘order of the world’ has become a greater reality and is closer at hand. It is not politics, business, church and life as in the past.

A Familiar view, past successful programs & strategies; same old, same old ways can blur our vision & hamper our pursuit of a fresh new approach – in most areas.
Before us are many, very new & challenging uncertainties that create diverse and new requirements for the present and future time.

C) IN the Newness of the Spirit – a New Resilient FAITH CULTURE

In many ways, people are now faced with the very real, fast changing dynamics of a very uncertain ‘present’ & vague future. It is an opportunistic, global, antagonizing and a constant in our lives. Believers need to become further acquainted and aware of a living God, actively guiding them, by His Spirit. The reality thereof and with greater intensity.

Personal challenges & struggles should be met with a resilient FAITH CULTURE. This is a personal, real & practical FAITH culture that will be introducing the dimension of God’s real time truths to be personified.

A NEW FAITH CULTURE- NEW wine is introduced for the new wineskins :

• It is crucial that hands-on, practical & on-the-run operational guidance & guidelines need to be introduced. This will enable the individual believer to be combat-ready, able to address & confront each personal challenge him/herself with resilient faith; in the newness of the Spirit. (b. Eph. 4:11-16)

• In-service Spirit training is the best way of learning & earning stripes under your belt; resulting in mature, relevant and practical Believers, trained in experiential faith by the Spirit.

• It’s time to throw the ball back into the hands of the believer & all members of the Christian faith.

The Assembly to assemble around His Spirit’s voice, individually received & acknowledged – as in the Upper Room – for the movement of the Church into the new, to come alive, together – form the Fulness of Christ – His Full 5 Fold.

D) IN the Newness of the Spirit – NEW WINE can BRING BREAKTHROUGH

New wine in new wineskins can break through the frontier of the unknown and step up, step out & create a new unique identity to meet the requirements of the new…
Maybe now is the time to let go… to embrace faith afresh ” in the newness of the Spirit”

‘Let my people go’, to believe in themselves, to believe in God alone, to be able to fulfil the great commission; their great mission; confident to be led by my Spirit. Man made principles need to be founded on the solid Rock of the Word.

• It is the duty of the Leaders & Elders of this age to equip & commission the Body of Believers into their harvest fields; NOW even in a more resilient new way. (b. Eph. 4:11-16)

E) IN the Newness of the Spirit – SEEK HIM TOGETHER – in a new way

CORPORATELY A FEW NEW APPROACHES NEED TO BE TAKEN FOR THIS TO HAPPEN

In a corporate community we have to pursue God together to find “the new” that accommodates & is inclusive of most in the communal heart… to find the communal heart; His heart in all.

Church life has to break in & break through

The uniqueness of each individual’s faith convictions should be harnessed to enrich the faith experience of the corporate Body. This being wide-ranging, yet inclusive to encourage involvement and facilitate self-realization.

In finding the Lord’s fresh new agenda & direction for the diverse areas of church life, it could be inevitably to seek a completely new approach. This can be done by bringing new wine into new wine skins through overhauling & remodelling some of the current programs, styles & rescheduling some.

In most areas of faith life, we should not default to “as we’ve done it in the past”. The previous approach will most probably not accommodate the current systemic scenario in the much-needed new & relevant way. It will also not be able to facilitate progress towards the new wine, unless this is & stays dynamic in the current NEW demanding situation.

F) IN the Newness of the Spirit – Determine the HEARTBEAT of the CORPORATE BODY


Seeking God’s face as a congregation and participate in transparent leadership is crucial for the church to stay dynamic.

In order to discern where our Father is ‘moving’ & ‘touching the hearts’ of members in the Body, we need to determine the heartbeat of the corporate body.

HOW DO WE FIND THE CONCEPT OF THE CORPORATE HEARTBEAT?

By encouraging open discussions, people’s dispositions, needs and personal faith quests, will be crystalized and brought into clarity. Through each member’s personal revelation of God & desired progress in their salvation process, this insight will bring revelation.

While encouraging ownership of the individual pursuit, this needs to join together in the corporate setting. To come to the full picture of our Father’s heart. Through this we will discover His current involvement in the lives of His saints and discern where He is taking the Body as a whole.

The voice of the sheep gives the shepherd a clearer idea of where they are and what their needs are; to meet just that. This, a paradox, but in this new season the shepherds’ may need to listen for the sheep’s cries. Let this stir up a new direction – leading from ‘behind’.

3.2 The New CHRISTIAN IMPACT – In His GLORY PRESENCE

G) IN the Newness of His Spirit – His MANIFESTED GLORY

Let us look at the scriptures:

“This, the first of His signs (miracles, wonderworks), Jesus performed in Cana of Galilee, and manifested His glory [by it He displayed His greatness and His power openly], and His disciples believed in Him [adhered to, trusted in, and relied on Him]”. (e) Joh 2:11


PEOPLE NEED TO BELIEVE “AGAIN”

Through the signs & wonders that Christ performed, His glory was manifest & His greatness and power became openly known. These miracles become evident of His presence; there manifesting in this dimension “on earth as it is in heaven”.

People started to believe in Him. This was something displayed through ‘Someone’; unlike anything they have ever experienced before. He had a completely New Impact in their lives.

It is time that this must happen again.
Surely, God would want show Himself strong in this moment in time; through a people that truly believe in the power given to them through the risen Christ; and them acting on it.

THE WORLD IS IN DIRE STRAITS – AWAITING SUCH A MOVE NOW:

• The dynamics of the entire social, financial, relational and operative environment in & around our socio-existence has changed.

WE need to demonstrate the PRESENCE & GLORY of God through A NEW HEIGHT of HIS SPIRIT’s INTENSITY and MANIFESTATION; NOT THROUGH more excitement & entertainment.

YOU have done all our works in us! The desire of our soul is for Your Name...
BY my spirit within me, I will seek you early

H) IN the Newness of His Spirit – His DYNAMIC POWER IN DIVERSITY

In order to stay relevant, we need to spent time and have open ears to find new ways of introducing a DYNAMIC POWERFUL GOD into people’s realities.

For this to happen we have to give God the mandate on OUR TIME & give the Holy Spirit our UNDIVIDED CAPTIVATION and worship of Him. Through sitting & abiding in His presence we will discover His DYNAMIC POWER in HIS DIVERSITY. This is crucial to lead the way.

As we look at Him the Holy Spirit show us His ways and lead us into all truth we will discover how He wants to manifest Himself in the “current world scenario” in this hour through HIS manifold ways.

The EVANGELISTIC Christian Ministry & Faith Life Push

The current global state of affairs should be used to the benefit of a NEW VISION. To stimulate the last leg of the EVANGELISTIC Christian Ministry & Faith Life Push.

This could result in a powerful & dynamic revival stimulus as people “start to believe” again.

• With all the diverse new challenges we may have to target a few areas where we find ourselves able to change & introduce diversity to make a difference in a new way and use this as a guideline & inspiration to change.

I) IN the Newness of His Spirit – LETTING GO make way for RELEVANCE

The New Christian Impact now needs to make a large footprint. Out in the mission field of our everyday life, in business, the workplace, social & suburban life –

It asks for a measure of ‘letting go & leaving’ of the occasional stagnation of the old. To introduce out of the box, new, wider & more free Christian life approaches that will meet people where they at.

J) IN the Newness of His Spirit – It’s time to MOVE ON

Most Believers have “moved on”. Christians have had enough of the rigidity of religiously; and ‘toeing the line’ to something that is not relevant to their real-time lives. These include many who are serious in their faith. The backslidden and even potential new souls. People want to see the risen Christ now manifested in this dimension!

In order to stay relevant in the irrevocably changed society of the 11th hour; finding new innovative evangelical ideas, mandates & encouraging new bold patterns will have to become a faith community’s pursuit.

This can ensure change to the faith life of the believer & to match the demand and need of the current late hour.

3.3 VISION must translate into SPECIFIC STRATEGIES.

K) IN the Newness of the Spirit – INCLUSIVE, TRANSPARENT & OPENLY

In order to steer the ship with inclusiveness, strategies will have to be freely discussed & openly debated by the greater part of the faith community.

This approach may keep at least the majority interested; being part of the plan through an incorporated vision, mission, goals & introducing actions steps for all to employ with vigour. Therefore, being motivated by an inclusive vision development; MORE BELIEVERS will be released to be the new face of the church – the individual mobilized.

“THE CHURCH WILL GO NOWHERE NEW, UNLESS WE ALL GO TOGETHER”

:-“God quote” Jhn 14 & 17

IF NOT implementing comprehensive vision building & INCLUSIVE VISIONARY LEADERSHIP, the falling away- from the corporate setting; of even the elect, will take place sooner than later.

In the light of the current global scenario – that has brought in much confusion – more individual VOICES are NEEDED; and need to be heard. We need the voice of the church to make the End Time Statement of the church drastic; to be broad & far reaching. This is essential, especially pertaining to the relevant direction for the church in its end time dynamic purpose.

L) IN the Newness of the Spirit – A STRATEGY for NOW

The ‘New Normal’ needs to be conceptualised within a strategy for now:

Not knowing exactly what just happened; where we are; where we are goin; what we are facing; what is next and what to prepare for; accumulate into a new compendium to be incorporated in our reasoning processes for the way forward.

These scenarios of global proportions, playing off in the minds of most, are now very much in our face. Where previously it was just a vague possibility in the back of one’s mind.

Much & many things have changed. Most people don’t have an idea of what exactly has changed. Neither can we factually appreciate what is really going on. And what is really at stake here.

DISCERNING THE TRUTH FROM THE LIE

The uncertainty of who are now calling the shots in governments; is of great concern.

The agenda of those key role players that socially influence our lives even readily planning that of the next generations is highly questionable and even suspiciously looked at. There is much reason to discern what the ‘truth’ sounds like and to seriously determine the church’s new function in a society that is still shaking in aftershock. Nowadays, the integrity of the many voices, bellowingover the amplified media waves, is highly questionable.

It is one thing to have a plan & direction.

We are all fully aware that something of apocalyptical nature is going on! But what this entails or will amount to still need to be revealed; and it will…! BUT will we see it for what it is!?

People don’t know to what the world has changed to & what it is developing into. Most people are greatly confused, and therefore even dysfunctional after this much unsettling time. Even to the point of becoming depressed and lethargic.

This current condition applies to our personal, corporate & even spiritual settings. There where we find the plan (path and direction) is not attend to in a fresh new way and left to the “silent groaning of the uncertainties” more confusion & disengagement will set in. ‘Someone’ needs to hear God’s voice in the newness of the Spirit for new direction in this season. All of us need to discern His truth from the voice of the lie.

The CHURCH needs to find that new setting to adapt their plans, strategies & spiritual leadership approach.

• We need to keep all parties involved to be part of a new way of thinking. This is crucial for faith building & a solid faith stance.
• Leaders should lead from the back at times, to accommodate & appreciate the reality of current dynamics in people’s lives; for an inclusive and dynamic new vision.

3.4 A NEW BRAND of MARCHING SAINTS

In providing diverse & creative planning opportunities, collaboration on the things that we are sure of from His Word;

The CHURCH could harness a New Brand of Marching Saints
into ‘The Last Commission March’ for HIS Glory Mission.

To keep the faith community relevant, active, encouraged and energetic; in doing what the hour requires, asks for a revised, fresh, unfamiliar & dynamic new VISION. This vision should translate through strong spiritual leadership & in collaboration with all who need to buy in and ‘sell the product’ of their faith; out in a very real and uncertain world.

THE LAST BANQUET

Every generation had their years of international & national mayhem, war, confusion & instability. Yet, now we are for sure closer to the end… We are closer to a fierce enemy with a devious plan, which needs to be negotiated.

Crucial new strategies have to be developed; in order not to fall away from the original Mission of the Church – MAKE disciples and take them with you. And not to miss out on the glorious harvest prepared for our Saviour’s last banquet feast.

M) IN the Newness of the Spirit – Every Believer embracing His MANDATE
TO COMPLETE THE WHOLE

4. CONCLUSION:

NOW IS THE TIME FOR HIS GLORY TO MANIFEST

As human intervention almost ‘step to the side’ in submission; we allow the GLORY OF HIS PRESENCE break the fallow ground in the believer’s life – in a NEWNESS of the Spirit-way.

As every believer is encouraged; become bold and daring to step into the flow of His Glory River, the church will come together in unison – as we all walk in the frontline, together.

FOR THE GREATER GLORY

We are in the Father’s GRACE TIME season of realizing purpose FOR THE GREATER GLORY; where every Believer will find his/her own voice in context of the Kingdom Voice & Spirit Call.

As the Godhead is ONE, we are to manifest the many facets of Christ’s glory in unison. Becoming relevant in these last days with New Wine in New wine skins. The FIVEFOLD Minisrty Fulness of Christ must be revived into action. This need to happern by equipping through guidance and revelation of the Holy SPirit in the moment; releasing the voice of the Father into one relevant voice by revelation. (e) Joh 2:5


‘His kingdom has to come’ through each Believer’s life – living from a place of experiential faith & glory.

• HIs Kingdom should & will manifest when His glory presence flow in & through us; becoming evident with signs & miracles. A daily, supernatural manifestation of His power & presence for the world to see & believe His majestic honour & glory. THIS can only COME from HIS PRESENCE… from Him…

TO pray from the Secret Place; from before His face.

Please watch this following video of Kevin Zadai’s experience in heaven. Encouraging us to enter into the secret place through prayer.

• For God to show forth His greatness; the greater works of Christ should be PERFORMED. There where man has no pretence, no human conceived plan and no agenda of His own. This will happen when man step aside & God’s glory manifests; by Him bringing His own right arm into action. To perform His greater works, even through us.

This happens when our Father finds a vessel through whom He can freely manifest His almighty power & glory, according to His council & perfect will; knowing His glory will reach Heaven’s throne & His accolades will be hailed, throughout the heavens and the earth. (e) Joh 2:11

All of creation will join in song for the Church has been mobilized for the honor & glory of his Kingdom to manifest.

His Glory will manifest as the corporate church “allow the believer to believe in God” through the lives of ALL and He will receive the hnour & praise. No man, no individual, no church, no denomination. We will be led by His Spirit and He will seize His own praise. He will not share His glory with no man.

A whole new era needs to be hauled in. Where the systems, calendars, plans, works and performances of man will truly subject itself, consciously, to serve God & His people “in the newness of the Spirit” (c)

The church in this late hour is crying out for
Strong & mature spiritual leadership in the Newness of the Spirit


From: The Monograph – A Biblical Theology of Leadership

I quote:

“If we think of success in terms of leader-greatness, we are on faulty ground.
Success is to be measured by the greatness of the people of God, not just the leaders”

5. FINAL APPRAISAL:

CHRIST wants to be glorified!

The Father’s glory was and still is Christ’s mission! Now through us, even more!
HIS IS the Kingdom, the ONLY kingdom, the only kingdom to build.
He ALONE is the POWER & the GLORY; to receive ALL the honour.

I humbly contemplate; might the church in general, have missed it at times…
We are “flesh unto flesh”, yet we should be spirit unto Spirit. The human nature, craving for honour and selfrealiasation is much tempted to make it about ourselves.

So many HUMAN PURSUITS; instead of making this life about God…, about His Glory to manifest through our lives and testimonies.

OUR God builds His church

We are ever thankful, for Him not leaving us to our own end. God is still building His Church!!

God is building His church regardless and in spite of our neglected failures and imperfections. Which include our failure to do regular retrospective “Word-Mirror” spot checks., to toe the line with the Word.

Our neglect, that has eroded gospel priorities, has rather often highlighted man’s packaged suggestions, of a Church look alike.

Are we building the church with God or apart from HIm?

HONOUR is due – SAINTS & STEWARDS of His grace

To His Priesthood, who continues relentless in the enormous responsibility of leadership; leading the church of His Christ in His wisdom, truth & Godly ways.

Many of God’s Servants are walking in the frontline, even when own weaknesses, trails & failures temp to lure to despair.”

LASTLY, Through this dissertation,

I also want to bring honour to the past & previous Giants of Faith. Those who led the Church so diligently by the call of His Spirit in previous eras.

They achieved much by spreading Christ’s Kingdom Glory through His Great Commission and played their best role in this diverse, compelling mission of the Christ Story.

They have layed the foundations for the now-generation, to fulfil and write the last pages of this novel Narrative.

Are we ready to build the Last Arc Together!

Heb 11:7

(7) By faith Noah, being divinely warned of things not yet seen; moved with godly fear, prepared an ark for the saving of his household, by which he condemned the world and became heir of the righteousness which is according to faith.

###############

These are my humble, ‘own-mirror’ reflective contemplations; a modest submission, KNOWING that it is only SHARING IN PART.

Let us all be encouraged to use this ‘New WINE Season’ to make right and keep going for the Good Lord’s Eternal Glorious Honour.

In His Righteousness alone

SUMMARY

The following themes are relevant to this recitation:

Summary with acknowledgement of Dr. Emeka Ezenwugo

  1. At PRE-Lockdown, the global Church was engaged in many ‘clever’, yet man driven initiatives. Many were not necessarily Spirit led.
  2. What we call the church has created a class of ‘dependent” devotees who have little or no one-on-one encounter with the Lord and lack discernment.
  3. There is a need for a tangible demonstration of God’s power and glory. This is needed both to awaken the Church and to harvest the souls in the world.
  4. The 5 fold ministry of Christ; especially the PROPHETIC, are needed at a time like this to be in sync with what the Lord is doing globally as we approach the end of the ages.

Annexure A: SCRIPTURES – Let the Scriptures Be the Light to Our Path

(a) THE GLORY OF THE FATHER & OF HIS CHRIST – ON EARTH – IS A GOD OBJECTIVE

Key verse to consider for our core aspiration & foundational consideration:

Joh 7:18 (Ampl)

(18) He who speaks on his own authority seeks to win honor for himself. [He whose teaching originates with himself seeks his own glory.]
But He Who seeks the glory and is eager for the honor of Him Who sent Him, He is true; and there is no unrighteousness or falsehood or deception in Him.
(NKJV) (18) He who speaks from himself seeks his own glory; but He who seeks the glory of the One who sent Him is true, and no unrighteousness is in Him.

(See Annexure B; for commentary perspective)

2Co 4:5 – 7

For we do not preach ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord, and ourselves your bondservants for Jesus’ sake.

For it is the God who commanded light to shine out of darkness, who has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.
Treasure in Jars of Clay

But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellence of the power may be of God and not of us.

Joh 14:13
And whatever you ask in My name, that I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son

Joh 17:1

Jesus spoke these words, lifted up His eyes to heaven, and said: “Father, the hour has come. Glorify Your Son, that Your Son also may glorify You,

Joh 17:4-6

(4) I have glorified You on the earth. I have finished the work which You have given Me to do.
(5) And now, O Father, glorify Me together with Yourself, with the glory which I had with You before the world was.
(6) “I have manifested Your name to the men whom You have given Me out of the world. They were Yours, You gave them to Me, and they have kept Your word.

Joh 17:22-24

(22) And the glory which You gave Me I have given them, that they may be one just as We are one:
(23) I in them, and You in Me; that they may be made perfect in one, and that the world may know that You have sent Me, and have loved them as You have loved Me.
(24) “Father, I desire that they also whom You gave Me may be with Me where I am, that they may behold My glory which You have given Me; for You loved Me before the foundation of the world.

(b) BELIEVERS MATURE UP!

Psa 89:14
Righteousness and justice are the foundation of Your throne; Mercy and truth go before Your face.

2Co 3:18

And all of us, as with unveiled face, [because we] continued to behold [in the Word of God] as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are constantly being transfigured into His very own image in ever increasing splendor and from one degree of glory to another; [for this comes] from the Lord [Who is] the Spirit.

Heb. 5:12 , 14

For though by this time you ought to be teachers, you need someone to teach you again the first principles of the oracles of God; and you have come to need milk and not solid food.

But solid food belongs to those who are of full age, that is, those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.

1Jnn 2:27 – The believer needs to know how to ABIDE IN HIM & draw from HIS anointing
But the anointing which you have received from Him abides in you, and you do not need that anyone teach you; but as the same anointing teaches you concerning all things, and is true, and is not a lie, and just as it has taught you, you will abide in Him.

Eph 4:11-16

(11) And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers,
(12) for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ,
(13) till we all come to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a perfect man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ;
(14) that we should no longer be children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, in the cunning craftiness of deceitful plotting,
(15) but, speaking the truth in love, may grow up in all things into Him who is the head—Christ—
(16) from whom the whole body, joined and knit together by what every joint supplies, according to the effective working by which every part does its share, causes growth of the body for the edifying of itself in love.

(c) THE MESSENGER OF THE NEW COVENANT IS SENT TO SERVE BY THE SPIRIT

Mal 3:1

1 “Behold, I send My messenger, And he will prepare the way before Me. And the Lord, whom you seek, Will suddenly come to His temple, Even the Messenger of the covenant, in whom you delight.
Behold, He is coming,” Says the LORD of hosts.

Rom 7:4, 6

4 Therefore, my brethren, you also have become dead to the law through the body of Christ, that you may be married to another—to Him who was raised from the dead, that we should bear fruit to God.
6 But now we have been delivered from the law, having died to what we were held by, so that we should serve in the newness of the Spirit and not in the oldness of the letter.

Ampl. Version Rom 7:4, 6 …So now we serve not under [obedience to] the old code of written regulations, but [under obedience to the promptings] of the Spirit in newness [of life].

Joh 20:21-23

(21) So Jesus said to them again, “Peace to you! As the Father has sent Me, I also send you.”
(22) And when He had said this, He breathed on them, and said to them, “Receive the Holy Spirit.

Mar 16:19
(19) So then, after the Lord had spoken to them, He was received up into heaven, and sat down at the right hand of God.

(d) TO DO THE WILL OF THE FATHER

Joh 4:34-35

34 Jesus said to them, “My food is to do the will of Him who sent Me, and to finish His work.
35 Do you not say, ‘There are still four months and then comes the harvest’? Behold, I say to you, lift up your eyes and look at the fields, for they are already white for harvest!

Heb 13:21
21 make you complete in every good work to do His will, working in you what is well pleasing in His sight, through Jesus Christ, to whom be glory forever and ever. Amen.

Joh 7:16-17

16 Jesus answered them and said, “My doctrine is not Mine, but His who sent Me.
17 If anyone wills to do His will, he shall know concerning the doctrine, whether it is from God or whether I speak on My own authority.

(e) SIGNS WILL MANIFEST HIS GLORY

Joh 2:5 His mother said to the servants, “Whatever He says to you, do it.”
Joh 2:11
This, the first of His signs (miracles, wonderworks), Jesus performed in Cana of Galilee, and manifested His glory [by it He displayed His greatness and His power openly], and His disciples believed in Him [adhered to, trusted in, and relied on Him].

Annexure B: COMMENTARIES EXTRACTS


Matthew Henry Commentary’s depicts:

(A) Comment on John 7:18

See here the character of a deceiver: he seeketh his own glory, which is a sign that he speaks of himself, as the false Christs and false prophets did. Here is the description of the cheat; they speak of themselves, and have no commission, nor instructions from God. No warrant but their own will, no inspiration but their own imagination, their own policy and artifice.

(B) Comment on John 7:16-17

Christ himself, was willing to have his doctrine enquired into, whether it were of God or not. Therefore much more should his ministers; and we are concerned to examine what grounds we go upon, for, if we be deceived, we are miserably deceived. Secondly, who are likely to succeed in this search: those that do the will of God, at least are desirous to do it.

Now see,

Who they are that will do the will of God? They are such as are impartial in their enquiries concerning the will of God, and are not biassed by any lust or interest, and such as are resolved by the grace of God, when they find out what the will of God is, to conform to it. They are such as have an honest principle of regard to God, and are truly desirous to glorify and please him.

29. What Happens As we PRAY

What Happens As we PRAY

I release these words as God reveals His heart. I believe He wants to encourages us all, to PRAY & TO BELIEVE that He IS VERY PRESENT in our CURRENT, VERY interesting SEASON.

PRAYER RELEASES THE POWER OF GOD

Psa 85:6-9

(6)  Will You not revive us again, That Your people may rejoice in You?

(7)  Show us Your mercy, LORD, And grant us Your salvation.

(8)  I will hear what God the LORD will speak, For He will speak peace To His people and to His saints; But let them not turn back to folly.

(9)  Surely His salvation is near to those who fear Him, That glory may dwell in our land.

WHAT HAPPENS AS WE PRAY !?

SEED NATURE TRANSFORMATION

Every seed is created by God to change the nature of that seed into something completely different as it is PLANTED or SUBMITTED. It becomes a living organism and of a “different nature”. It changes from strength, phase, stature, appearance, purpose, destiny & in effect.

God has DESIGNED THAT SEED to react to HIS NATURE – SUPERTNATURAL POWER

As we pray, putting our faith out there in audible words, we create something very powerful, life changing, atmosphere changing by releasing our faith into the God realm.

These faith-released ‘SEEDS’ change completely from nature as prayer turns words & sound into actions. These PRAYERS are to be executed by a different kind – the angel-kind, and released into another realm to execute, to manifest here on earth as it is in heaven.

PRAYERS RELEASE THE SUPERNATURAL

These prayers are directed into the spiritual realm to create something supernatural and of a wonderworking type. The heavens react to the words & doings of God’s saints, His warrior bride. Angels are sent into action. Daemons are set to flight and heaven touches earth.

Do we understand the authority & power we exude as we utter & demonstrate words, prophetic actions, gestures, songs and even groanings & sounds of weeping, praise or joy by faith?

Our faith and authority do not lie in the words, method or strategy BUT in the power of the Name of our Lord Jesus Christ; – as the word so clearly state.

BELEIVE IN GOD OR NOT

As we PRAY, we have a choice to believe that something will happen as we have brought the matter before the Father’s Throne of grace. We also have an option to see by the spirit, our Lord, the Chief Intercessor, seated at the Right Hand of the Father, interceding for us, or we can look with the natural eye and see ourselves trying to do this life by our own natural ability…

When we employ our faith in an ALMIGHTY GOD through our PRAYERS, we can extend our spirit-hearts to take hold of the HOPE and even ETERNAL JOY; to actively RECEIVE the PEACE that we have in our Lord, HIS COMPLETE SHALOM. OR we will be guilty of being a doubting Thomas. There are no grey areas when it comes to faith in God.

We either believe in God or we don’t; in His goodness, faithfulness, wisdom, justice and kindness… to name but a few of His characteristics. If the Word of God states over and over that God is good … His mercies endures forever, then we have to make the choice, even TODAY, to believe, that is WHO He says He is – NOW & for ever more.

When circumstances changes … God does not change with it!!!

FAITH COMES ALIVE AS IT HEARS THE WORD OF GOD !

The Word says that God has given us all a measure of faith. This faith comes alive and goes into action as it HEARS the LIVING Word of God. Even more so when we utter or demonstrate this ourselves by the filling our minds, heart and mouth with great measures of the Word.

LET us therefore go INTO ACTION with our PRAYERS, filled with WORDS of WORD-FAITH! And let us look, to see & wait in expectancy what God is doing on our behalf, in this life that He has blessed us with. If you are also one of those doubting if this present situation is a blessing… I don’t blame you… surely, we are all wondering where this is going.

But one thing will never change and that is :

Joh 14:13-14

(13)  And whatever you ask in My name, that I will do,

that the Father may be glorified in the Son.

(14)  If you ask anything in My name, I will do it.

Luk 18:7-8

(7)  And shall God not avenge His own elect who cry out day and night to Him, though He bears long with them?

(8)  I tell you that He will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless, when the Son of Man comes, will He really find faith on the earth?”

PRAYER SCRIPTURE

Psa 85:10-13

(10)  Mercy and truth have met together; Righteousness and peace have kissed.

(11)  Truth shall spring out of the earth, And righteousness shall look down from heaven.

(12)  Yes, the LORD will give what is good; And our land will yield its increase.

(13)  Righteousness will go before Him, And shall make His footsteps our pathway.

CONCLUSION :

Keep your Hope, Stay in FAith & remeber AS you PRAY things DO TURN AROUND!!!

28. TRUE WORSHIP UNTO GOD RESTORES

TRUE WORSHIP UNTO GOD RESTORES RAIN and HIS BLESSINGS TO A NATION

True Worship Unto GOD restores all things back to HIS purposes and plans. This applies to all of us and to all of our lives. We are all called to worship God. Even Satan still falls under that command. All of creation is called to worship the one true God.

He is I am Who I am; Ehyeh Asher EhyehI am / will be what I am / will be.

EXO-3:13-15 Press CNTRL+kairoslife.co.za/bible-reference/#exo-3

IF ANY WANTS TO SERVE THIS NATION IN TRUE WORSHIP UNTO GOD – MAKE RIGHT WITH the TRUE GOD

IF you BELEVE it or NOT. You are a creation of the One true GOD. You can choose to believe what ever you want – this one fact cannot be changed according to your believe or liking. You are created by the ONE true God – that LOVES you and He created you OUT OF LOVE & FROM HIS SPIRIT. You look like Him – amazing or freeky – it still stays a fact & the only truth there is.

True Worship unto God – the only true God restores a Nation to enter into His REST. Such a people who trusts in God also receive to enjoy His protection & Covenant Blessings according to His Promises; by default!

– ONLY SHARING IN PART –

The Lord has laid a deep concern in my heart; imprinting that the current DROUGHT has a GOD PRINCIPLE implicating. This is not solely the reason, yet it links up our Government and the Presidency, as the responsible entity in office, the head of State – the head of this South African NATION.

IF ANY WANTS TO SERVE THIS NATION IN TRUE WORSHIP UNTO GOD – PRAY FOR OBEDIENCE TO HIS COMMANDS.

Such, has ‘cut’ PEACE connections with Israel in bowing to humanistic, political, economic and cultural pressures. This decision is in clear opposite to OBEDIENCE to the Word of God and the Worship of the ONLY ONE TRUE GOD.

A logical result from this action taken by our Government – a COLLECTIVE Governmental LEADERSHIP, who takes RESPONSIBILITY for this Nation and makes the final decisions – is the consequential REFRAINING from TRUE WORSHIP to the ONE TRUE GOD.

This resulting in South Africa to stand in DISFAVOUR, AS A WHOLE NATION, before the CREATOR; and therefore, (in part) closed up for the blessings and favour of God Eternal.

HE ALONE is the giver of ALL LIFE; which includes the BLESSING of LIFE GIVING RAIN on our NATION (see scriptures below). HE demands true worship unto God, unto Himself for He has set His laws in place to bless the Nations who will abide in His blessed ways.

◇ SCRIPTURAL PERSPECTIVE AND TERMINOLOGY:

Therefore, as we interpret this from a Scriptural perspective, our Government, and specifically the king/our President, as the head and responsible person (see Ps 21) can’t be a blessing to the nation… and we can’t walk in the blessings of God as a nation.

Blessings, which include the blessing of rain, financial prosperity, social and governmental stability.

IF ANYONE WANTS TO SERVE THIS NATION – TAKE UP YOUR GOD-GIVEN RESPONSIBILITY

Again, this applies to all citizens of this nation.

◇ OUR RESPONSIBILITIES

A.▪ THE CHRIST BELIEVING CITIZEN’S RESPONSIBILITY:

  1. Let us then STAND in the GAP and REPENT for the sins of this nation’s Government and PRAY for the peoples.
  2. Let us pray for their hearts to open up to God’s wisdom and council.

B.▪ A CALL TO PRAY FOR THE GOVERNMENT’S RESPONSIBILITIES:

Let the BELIEVING CITIZENS of this Nation CALL UPON our GOVERNMENTAL LEADERS to:

  1. REPENT of their HOSTILITY towards Israel and REFRAINING OF ACKNOWLEDGING YAHWEH, the Great I am, as the One True God;
  2. Let us PRAY for RESTORATION of such RELATIONS and the PROTECTION of FREE WORSHIP to the GOD of Israel; – REPENT for ALL FORMS of unrighteous BLOODSHED
  3. Let us PRAY for the RESTORATION of such laws & the re-instating of the protection of ALL LIFE of man and all things created.
  4. REPENT for ALLOWING the VIOLATION of the SANCTITY of THE BRIDE; MARRIAGE and ALL RELATIONSHIPS RELATING TO FAMILY;
  5. Let us PRAY for the RESTORATION and employment of all legislation for the PROTECTION of the ENTTITY of the FAMILY; as GOD designed it.
  6. REPENT for neglecting SERVICES to the citizens of this Nations, purely because of the DISOBEDIENCE to God’s STATUTES, PRINCIPLES and (WISE) COUNCIL to the king; resulting in a lawless, greedy, disrespectful, corrupt, truth-less and a selfish society;
  7. Let us PRAY for the conviction of the hearts in our Leaders, by the power of the Holy Spirit to return to the One True God.

C.▪ THE BODY OF CHRIST:

IF ANONE WANTS TO SERVE THIS NATION – Let the BODY OF CHRIST UNITE IN TRUE WORSHIP OF THE ONE TRUE GOD,

the MESSIAH, the Lord Jesus Christ, who came to save the world.

He also came to die for the SALVATION OF THIS NATION, TODAY. (Hebr 2 to 4)

there is NO OTHER God

IF ANONE WANTS TO SERVE THIS NATION -Let us UNITE IN PRAYER:

  1. TO BRING HONOUR TO HIM ALONE; for HE said there are no other gods like Him.
  2. TO REFRAIN FROM OUR OWN STUBBORNNESS, cultural, humanistic and church-political deviations and divisions; TO Worship God in Unison.
  3. TO RETURN TO THE WORSHIP OF GOD, the Father and the Son through the Holy Spirit within.
  4. TO REPENT for the sad and compromising state of affairs in the Body of Christ and the CHURCH establishment.
  5. TO PRAY for ALL who call themselves Believers in the Lord Jesus Christ, to return to the TRUTH and sound doctrine in His WORD.

◇ CONCLUSION:

Yet, God, the God of the Whole Universe, STILL KEEPS US IN HIS MERCY and GRACE; for our God has not forsaken us completely,…
There are still Prayers going up to His Throne. There are still believing, trusting hearts in His faithfulness over us.

GOD IS A SOVEREIGN GOD… HE HAS the SOUTH AFRICAN Nation as part of His End Time plan to be a SAFE HAVEN for the World.

Let us PRAY this into being!

THE SACRIFICE Christ paid has completely removed our separation from God, in order for us to freely come…; and AS WE willingly RETURN TO HIM.
Let this NATION RETURN to the Living God in TRUE WORSHIP and ACKNOWLEDGEMENT of HIS SOVEREIGNTY over us.
LET US ARISE IN HIS GRACE; RIGHTEOUSNESS, JOY, PEACE, HOPE, TRUST and FAITH in our GOD.
FOR HE HAS OVERCOME sin and death, He IS ADVANCING with the Hosts of Heaven on our behalf.

He is coming as THE ETERNAL SAVIOUR of the World… also for RSA.

◇ SCRIPTURE references:

Zechariah 14:17

And it shall be that whoso of the families of the earth shall not go up to Jerusalem to worship the King, the Lord of hosts, upon them there shall be no rain.

Psalm 21:1 – 3 , 5 – 7

THE KING [David] shall joy in Your strength, O Lord; and in Your salvation how greatly shall he rejoice!
You have given him his heart’s desire and have not withheld the request of his lips. Selah
For You send blessings of good things to meet him; You set a crown of pure gold on his head. His glory is great because of Your aid; splendor and majesty You bestow upon him. For You make him to be blessed and a blessing forever; You make him exceedingly glad with the joy of Your presence. For the king trusts, relies on, and is confident in the Lord, and through the mercy and steadfast love of the Most High he will never be moved.

Hebrews 3: 12 – 13 , 15 , 19 Ampl

[Therefore beware] brethren, take care, lest there be in any one of you a wicked, unbelieving heart [which refuses to cleave to, trust in, and rely on Him], leading you to turn away and desert or stand aloof from the living God.
But instead warn (admonish, urge, and encourage) one another every day, as long as it is called
Today, that none of you may be hardened [into settled rebellion] by the deceitfulness of sin [by the fraudulence, the stratagem, the trickery which the delusive glamor of his sin may play on him].
Then while it is [still] called Today, if you would hear His voice and when you hear it, do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion [in the desert, when the people provoked and irritated and embittered God against them]. [Ps. 95 :7, 8.]
So we see that they were not able to enter [into His rest], because of their unwillingness to adhere to and trust in and rely on God [unbelief had shut them out].

? SCRIPTURE:

Then I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, “Now salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of His Christ have come,
for the accuser of our brethren, who accused them before our God day and night, has been cast down.

And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, and they did not love their lives to the death.

Therefore rejoice, O heavens, and you who dwell in them! Woe to the inhabitants of the earth and the sea! For the devil has come down to you, having great wrath, because he knows that he has a short time.”
Revelation 12:10‭-‬12 NKJV

GOD BLESS AND KEEP YOU IN HIS LOVE AND TRUTH
?????

19. THE VOICE of the Church has been SILENCED and is STRICKEN INEFFECTIVE.

SIGNGS & WONDERS through the Church

NOW IS THE TIME TO CORRECT THIS GRIEVOUS SIN AGAINST THE  VOICE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT!!!

THE CHURCH CANNOT EFFECTIVELY RISE UP WITH ONE VOICE AND BOLD AUTHORITY AGAINST CRIME, MURDER AND ANARCHY;  EVEN OUR TESTIMONIES ARE BEING SILENCED.  HEALING from sickness and disease are diminished in the physical & spirit BECAUSE THE BODY IS DIVIDED AND TOOTHLESS… THE REASON BE…

the testimony of christ

THE TESTIMONY OF CHRIST HAS BEEN THWARTED by the very vehicle GOD Instituted to release it.

This is done in exchange for human abilities, human wisdom and fleshly councils, carnal experiences, insight and the satisfying of carnal minded, soul dimension demands and human good ideas can be voiced.

■ IF WE REJECT THE TESTIMONY OF CHRIST WE ALSO REJECT THE SPIRIT OF PROPHECY. THEREFORE WE WILL NOT BE ABLE TO RELEASE THE SPIRIT OF PROPHECY; WHO is CHRIST HIMSELF!

DON’T NOT BE FOOLED.

IF THE 5 FOLD IS NOT OPERATIONAL IN our CORPORATE FAITH EXPERIENCE, CHURCH, MINISTRY then we HAVE NOT YET EMBRACED THE FULL TESTIMONY OF CHRIST.

The church and His people are therefore loosing out and are compromised in their understanding of Who Christ is and how He designed the church to function.

We are therefore experiencing a DISABLED CHRIST TESTIMONY and are a DIS-FUNCTIONAL Body. WE ARE then TEACHING HALF THE TRUTH.

Is it kept in this state, along with Prophetic callings being assassinated in the spirit, by the spirit of Jezebel? Or is it kept in this place by controlling spirits functioning through the religious spirit under the banner of order, excellence and/or effective leadership?

“The leading of the Holy Spirit has NO chance”; seeing that we apparently  don’t need Him most of the time. We are so effective on our own in serving Him, which we then do on His behalf. In our ZEAL for God, jam-packed, full of ideas and self we run into the trap of the religious spirit. This spirit motivates our actions through the satisfaction of doing things right and gratifies by the ticking of boxes and well done stickers, instead of just following the Holy Spirit’s lead.

The time is now, that we should have a look at the church – under the demonic influence of Jezebel – afresh.  Where the church functions under the spirit of a smothering control, we should understand the full impact of our decisions, attitudes and behavior. This spirit has the paralysis of the EFFECTIVE VOICE of the church in its agenda, using God fearing people.

We need CHRIST’S TESTIMONY to be released  through the Holy Spirit only.

The church’s VOICE is SILENT and ineffective because of self idolatry and narrow vision… THEREFORE it is SHALLOW AND WITHOUT AUTHORITY.

We often rely on fleshly achievements and do not operate & serve God’s people in the authoritative power of the Holy Spirit’s sent missions in and for His glory by His Spirit.

THE CHRISTIAN GIANT

The churches should be leading the way in each town and in different spheres of society.

The Christian Giant should now rise up and make a stand and take the lead and create the future of this nation. This is done by our Words of Prophetic Vision, Insight and Revelation through the weapons of His Blood and Spirit authority.

WE CANNOT DENY HALF OF CHRIST.

As long as we cling to our own thrones, crowns and narrow platforms, we cannot embrace the 5 FOLD MINISTRY GIFTS of JESUS CHRIST; WHO IS CHRIST IN EARTHLY VESSELS.

The church are heading for burned down, empty “temples” and a Bride that has sinned by missing her calling in preparing for her BRIDEGROOM. 

A Bride defiled and robbed of Divine impartation. Who has violated her purpose and aborted her mission because she REJECTED Christ in ALL that He is and therefore is WITHOUT HIS DIVINE STRENGTH in HIS DIVINE MISSION.

The churches are full of tired “temples” without VISION or HOPE because the VOICE of our HOLY SPIRIT LORD – The “RUACH” of our GOD, has been replaced by human voices. This is then A BRIDE without her beauty and glory.

THE EARTH CRIES OUT

The whole earth cries out for the release of the sons & daughters of the Most High God – El Elyon.

Our King is coming and we are still rejecting the 5 Fold fullness of Christ’s  Redemptive perfect structure for the church.  We are still quarreling over selfish and self centered opinions.

The testimony of Christ is the spirit of prophecy.

The Prophetic voice is the Holy Spirit’s Testimony of Christ.

Anything else could be our own, mere human carnal mind and words, covered up in white religious, pretentious paint.
Without revelation we are merely running a religious carnally glamoured institution.

Woe to us!

Woe to the one who misleads any of these… His children
Woe to a failing church because of lust after power, coveting, pride, earthly honor, position and the power to control…..

WE HUMBLE OURSELVES..

WE REPENT OF OUR SINS LORD

24.01.2018

PROPHETIC WORD – I AM, THEREFORE BE SET FREE

I AM

■This is the year of the Great ” I Am ” REVEALED in this world and His POWER seen in our lives.

“God answered with His name, Ehyeh Asher Ehyeh…

I Am That I Am… I will be What I will be “.Ex3v14

BE SET FREE

■This is ALSO the hour TO BE “SET FREE”:

▪This is the Kairos moment in TIME TO LET GO… LET GOD…

▪To GET free from the

~ fear of failure,

even more than that is

~ fear for suffering and death…

and

~ fear of man… TO DECLARE BOLDLY : THE LORD IS GOD… in this or that situation.

▪When Rev 12v11 SHOULD BE activated, especially not to love this life

Rev 12:11-Msg
11 They defeated him through the blood of the Lamb and the bold word of their witness. They weren’t in love with themselves; they were willing to die for Christ.

■ This is the season where we will sing…:

” IF MY GOD IS FOR US, WHO CAN BE AGAINST US!!”…. AND BELIEVE IT.‼

  • THIS TRUST IN HIM TO ENABLE US TO WALK IN THAT FAITH‼

■This is the YEAR:-

When the Body of Christ will SERVE Him,

the great I AM; ELOHIM, ADONAI … ALMIGHTY GOD, SOVEREIGN LORD, OUR MASTER…

  • The Church will arise as SERVANTS of the King and His Kingdom’s purposes in stead of all there own plans and their own “ways”.
When the CHURCH will LOVE THEIR GOD

– because HE LOVED THE WORLD and ALL THINGS created, FIRST.

As GOD INITIATES LOVE, WE WILL RESPOND BY HONORING HIM BY OUR TRUST & FAITH

As God LOVED FIRST, we will return HIS LOVE; we will HONOR HIS love- connection; Him reaching out to us – mere man

THE LORD our God, will REVEAL and  COMMISSION is INTO HIS WAYS

(Prov1v2-8)

LET US THEN

  • HEAR AND OBEY!!
  • TRUST HIM COMPLETELY WITH YOUR PAST, PRESENT & FUTURE… AND BE SET FREE!!
  • LET US “SEE” HIM AND FOLLOW THE TRAIL OF HIS VICTORIOUS BLOOD… ‼
  • WALK IN HIS RESURRECTION POWER ‼
  • LET US THEN BELIEVE IN HIS PERFECT INTERCESSION FOR US… AS HE IS NOW BEING SEATED IN HIS FATHER’S PERFECT PRESENCE AND DOMINION POWER.
  • LET US THEN RECEIVE OUR FORGIVENESS and SALVATION to the FULL… ABUNDANT LIFE‼
  • LET US EMBRACE our FATHERS LOVE and truly BELIEVE He has sent HIS SON;

to SAVE THE WORLD, OUR NATIONS, OUR TOWNS, our families… OUR LIVES‼(Jhn17)

~ To BRING US INTO THE FULLNESS OF HIS ETERNAL GLORY.

  • LET US RENEW OUR FAITH, STAND UP IN PERFECT HOPE and TO STAND.

TO KEEP ON STANDING; HIDDEN IN CHRIST.(Ef6)

  • LET US DISCERN HIM and WALK IN HIS AUTHORITY; AMBASSADORS OF THE KINGDOM OF HIS LIGHT, LOVE and GRACE-
  • LET US THEN HAVE HIS UNSURPASSED PEACE IN OUR HEARTS.

Php_4:7 and the PEACE OF GOD, which surpasses all understanding,

will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

Col_3:15 And let the PEACE OF GOD rule in your hearts,

To which also you were called in one body; and be thankful.

  • LET THE RIGHTEOUS BE GLAD AND REJOICE EXCEEDINGLY (Ps68)

SHALOM!! SHALOM!!

God BLESS and KEEP YOU
