Now in 2025 – The Name AZANIA – A Name that was previously used in political circles in the past has been now reinvigorated from the stage of the FNB Prayer & Repentance Event on 22 March 2025 – Apostle Linda Gobodo .

The Hebrew meaning of AZANIA means – God Has Heard”

1. CHRIST OUR CORNERSTONE – Our Rock & FOUNDATION.

He will be Present. He will meet us there.

Eph 2:17-22

(17) And He came and preached peace to you who were afar off and to those who were near.
(18) For through Him we both have access by one Spirit to the Father.
(19) Now, therefore, you are no longer strangers and foreigners, but fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God,

(20) having been built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ Himself being the chief cornerstone,
(21) in whom the whole building, being fitted together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord,
(22) in whom you also are being built together for a dwelling place of God in the Spirit.

Luk 20:17-18

(17) Then He looked at them and said, “What then is this that is written: ‘THE STONE WHICH THE BUILDERS REJECTED HAS BECOME THE CHIEF CORNERSTONE’ ?
(18) Whoever falls on that stone will be broken; but on whomever it falls, it will grind him to powder.”

1Co 3:9-11

(9) For we are God’s fellow workers; you are God’s field, you are God’s building.
(10) According to the grace of God which was given to me, as a wise master builder I have laid the foundation, and another builds on it. But let each one take heed how he builds on it.
(11) For no other foundation can anyone lay than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ.

2Ti 2:19

(19) Nevertheless the solid foundation of God stands, having this seal: “The Lord knows those who are His,” and, “Let everyone who names the name of Christ depart from iniquity.”

Let us stand in the gap & repent for the iniquities coming down through our bloodlines

2. PRAYING for THE UN-BELIEVER, THE LOST, BROKEN & BURDENED, DOUBTING THOMAS

Luk 21:36

(36) Watch therefore, and pray always that you may be counted worthy to escape all these things that will come to pass, and to stand before the Son of Man.”

Act 4:7-14

(7) And when they had set them in the midst, they asked, “By what power or by what name have you done this?”
(8) Then Peter, filled with the Holy Spirit, said to them, “Rulers of the people and elders of Israel:
(9) If we this day are judged for a good deed done to a helpless man, by what means he has been made well,

(10) let it be known to you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom you crucified, whom God raised from the dead, by Him this man stands here before you whole.
(11) This is the ‘STONE WHICH WAS REJECTED BY YOU BUILDERS, WHICH HAS BECOME THE CHIEF CORNERSTONE.’

(12) Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.”
(13) Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were uneducated and untrained men, they marveled. And they realized that they had been with Jesus.
(14) And seeing the man who had been healed standing with them, they could say nothing against it.

3. THE BELIEVER

What will move the heart of man to fall before his God in prayer and repentance to become involved in prayer for this nation and not only for themselves but for the corporate picture for our nation and for all those who still need to come in the lost the broken the bound the burdened the compromised the afflicted the poor the weak the sick the lame?

4. THE CORPORATE CHURCH – GOD is BUILDING HIS CHURCH

Zec 10:1-12

(1) Ask the LORD for rain In the time of the latter rain. The LORD will make flashing clouds; He will give them showers of rain, Grass in the field for everyone.

(2) For the idols speak delusion; The diviners envision lies, And tell false dreams; They comfort in vain. Therefore the people wend their way like sheep; They are in trouble because there is no shepherd.
(3) “My anger is kindled against the shepherds, And I will punish the goatherds. For the LORD of hosts will visit His flock, The house of Judah, And will make them as His royal horse in the battle.

(4) From him comes the cornerstone, From him the tent peg, From him the battle bow, From him every ruler together.

(5) They shall be like mighty men, Who tread down their enemies In the mire of the streets in the battle. They shall fight because the LORD is with them, And the riders on horses shall be put to shame.
(6) “I will strengthen the house of Judah, And I will save the house of Joseph. I will bring them back, Because I have mercy on them. They shall be as though I had not cast them aside; For I am the LORD their God, And I will hear them.

(8) I will whistle for them and gather them, For I will redeem them; And they shall increase as they once increased.
(12) “So I will strengthen them in the LORD, And they shall walk up and down in His name,” Says the LORD.

  • Let no man stand in the way of what the Father is building through His Holy Spirit
  • Let the church repent of standing in the way of the move of God through the GIFTS of the Holy Spirit.
  • Let the church repent for her idolatry of pedestals of fame, pride, comfort, prestige, slander, entertainment, business, having a from of life… being dead.

  • Praying from the legacy of previous spiritual leaders from years ago until now… to call it forth in the next season
  • Anointing of the Holy Spirit – boldness, strength, authority & FIRE of God on them.
  • Message of personal revival & a nation in dire straits to touch base & reach deep into the hearts of every person.

7. SCRIPTURES

Isa 28:14-29

(14) Therefore hear the word of the LORD, you scornful men, Who rule this people who are in Jerusalem,
(15) Because you have said, “We have made a covenant with death, And with Sheol we are in agreement. When the overflowing scourge passes through, It will not come to us, For we have made lies our refuge, And under falsehood we have hidden ourselves.”

(16) Therefore thus says the Lord GOD: “Behold, I lay in Zion a stone for a foundation, A tried stone, a precious cornerstone, a sure foundation; Whoever believes will not act hastily.

(17) Also I will make justice the measuring line, And righteousness the plummet; The hail will sweep away the refuge of lies, And the waters will overflow the hiding place.

(18) Your covenant with death will be annulled, And your agreement with Sheol will not stand; When the overflowing scourge passes through, Then you will be trampled down by it.

(20) For the bed is too short to stretch out on, And the covering so narrow that one cannot wrap himself in it.
(21) For the LORD will rise up as at Mount Perazim, He will be angry as in the Valley of Gibeon—That He may do His work, His awesome work, And bring to pass His act, His unusual act.

(22) Now therefore, do not be mockers, Lest your bonds be made strong; For I have heard from the Lord GOD of hosts, A destruction determined even upon the whole earth.
(23) Give ear and hear my voice, Listen and hear my speech.
(24) Does the plowman keep plowing all day to sow? Does he keep turning his soil and breaking the clods?
(28) Bread flour must be ground; Therefore he does not thresh it forever, Break it with his cartwheel, Or crush it with his horsemen.
(29) This also comes from the LORD of hosts, Who is wonderful in counsel and excellent in guidance.

8. Previous REVIVALS in S.A.

Conference for Revival

At the April 18-19 conference in Worcester, there were ministers from the Dutch Reformed Church, the Methodist Church, leaders from the Scotch Presbyterian Church, Wesleyan and Rhenish Mission Society (German). The conference was made up of 347 ministers, elders, deacons, and other church leaders. There were 20 churches represented, 16 of them being from the Dutch Reformed Church.

The Revival Starts in Montagu
Following the Worcester Conference on April 18-19, 1860, delegates returned to their hometowns with a renewed desire to pray for revival. They immediately joined the already established prayer groups.
These prayer meetings met up to three times daily. People began sharing their faith, and many were saved.

BLESSING

Psa 118:14-29

(14) The LORD is my strength and song, And He has become my salvation.

(16) The right hand of the LORD is exalted; The right hand of the LORD does valiantly.
(17) I shall not die, but live, And declare the works of the LORD.
(18) The LORD has chastened me severely, But He has not given me over to death.

OPEN The GATES

(19) Open to me the gates of righteousness; I will go through them, And I will praise the LORD.
(20) This is the gate of the LORD, Through which the righteous shall enter.
(21) I will praise You, For You have answered me, And have become my salvation.
(22) The stone which the builders rejected Has become the chief cornerstone.

(23) This was the LORD’s doing; It is marvelous in our eyes.

(25) Save now, I pray, O LORD; O LORD, I pray, send now prosperity.
(26) Blessed is he who comes in the name of the LORD! We have blessed you from the house of the LORD.
(27) God is the LORD, And He has given us light; Bind the sacrifice with cords to the horns of the altar.
(28) You are my God, and I will praise You; You are my God, I will exalt You.

73. AWAKEN S.A. Week 4. PRAYER & REPENTANCE Message to A Nation

12 March 2025 AWAKEN S.A. Week 4 PRAYER & REPENTANCE

Week 4 – Your Message to S.A.
What is your message to S.A. right now?

The Holy Spirit has something to say about & to S.A. What is His message to this nation; wrapped in disarray & discord?

Are we positioned aright in Christ’s righteousness? D we clearly hear – to declare, the message from God that South Africa needs to hear right now?

If you have the opportunity to stand before a South African crowd now – What would you like to say to them?

Isa 40:9-31 The Greatness of God

(9) O Zion, You who bring good tidings, Get up into the high mountain; O Jerusalem. You who bring good tidings, Lift up your voice with strength, Lift it up, be not afraid. Say to the cities of Judah, “Behold your God!”

(10) Behold, the Lord GOD shall come with a strong hand. And His arm shall rule for Him; Behold, His reward is with Him, And His work before Him.
(11) He will feed His flock like a shepherd; He will gather the lambs with His arm. And carry them in His bosom, And gently lead those who are with young.

(12) Who has measured the waters in the hollow of His hand. Measured heaven with a span And calculated the dust of the earth in a measure? Weighed the mountains in scales And the hills in a balance?
(13) Who has directed the Spirit of the LORD, Or as His counselor has taught Him?
(14) With whom did He take counsel, and who instructed Him, And taught Him in the path of justice? Who taught Him knowledge, And showed Him the way of understanding?

(15) Behold, the nations are as a drop in a bucket, And are counted as the small dust on the scales. Look, He lifts up the isles as a very little thing.
(17) All nations before Him are as nothing, And they are counted by Him less than nothing and worthless.

TO Whom Do You Compare God?

(18) To whom then will you liken God? Or what likeness will you compare to Him?
(19) The workman molds an image, The goldsmith overspreads it with gold, And the silversmith casts silver chains.
(20) Whoever is too impoverished for such a contribution Chooses a tree that will not rot. He seeks for himself a skillful workman To prepare a carved image that will not totter.

(21) Have you not known? Have you not heard? Has it not been told you from the beginning? Have you not understood from the foundations of the earth?
(22) It is He who sits above the circle of the earth, And its inhabitants are like grasshoppers. Who stretches out the heavens like a curtain, And spreads them out like a tent to dwell in.

(23) He brings the princes to nothing; He makes the judges of the earth useless.

(25) “To whom then will you liken Me, Or to whom shall I be equal?” says the Holy One.
(26) Lift up your eyes on high, And see who has created these things. Who brings out their host by number. He calls them all by name. By the greatness of His might And the strength of His power; Not one is missing.

(27) Why do you say, O Jacob, And speak, O Israel: “My way is hidden from the LORD. And my just claim is passed over by my God”?
(28) Have you not known? Have you not heard? The everlasting God, the LORD, The Creator of the ends of the earth, Neither faints nor is weary. His understanding is unsearchable.
(29) He gives power to the weak, And to those who have no might He increases strength.

(30) Even the youths shall faint and be weary, And the young men shall utterly fall.
(31) But those who wait on the LORD Shall renew their strength. They shall mount up with wings like eagles. They shall run and not be weary, They shall walk and not faint.

Joh 16:7-11

(7) Nevertheless I tell you the truth. It is to your advantage that I go away. For if I do not go away, the Helper will not come to you. But if I depart, I will send Him to you.
(8) And when He has come, He will convict the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment.
(9) of sin, because they do not believe in Me.
(10) of righteousness, because I go to My Father and you see Me no more.
(11) of judgment, because the ruler of this world is judged.

Psa 94:15

But judgment will return to righteousness, And all the upright in heart will follow it.

Isa 5:16

But the LORD of hosts shall be exalted in judgment, And God who is holy shall be hallowed in righteousness.

2. God’s Discipline

Act 28:25-27

(25) So when they did not agree among themselves, they departed after Paul had said one word. “The Holy Spirit spoke rightly through Isaiah the prophet to our fathers.

(26) saying, ‘GO TO THIS PEOPLE AND SAY: “HEARING YOU WILL HEAR, AND SHALL NOT UNDERSTAND. AND SEEING YOU WILL SEE, AND NOT PERCEIVE.
(27) FOR THE HEARTS OF THIS PEOPLE HAVE GROWN DULL. THEIR EARS ARE HARD OF HEARING, AND THEIR EYES THEY HAVE CLOSED, LEST THEY SHOULD SEE WITH THEIR EYES AND HEAR WITH THEIR EARS. LEST THEY SHOULD UNDERSTAND WITH THEIR HEARTS AND TURN, SO THAT I SHOULD HEAL THEM.” ‘

Jer 4:1-4

(1) “If you will return, O Israel,” says the LORD, “Return to Me. And if you will put away your abominations out of My sight. Then you shall not be moved.
(2) And you shall swear, ‘The LORD lives,’ In truth, in judgment, and in righteousness. The nations shall bless themselves in Him, And in Him they shall glory.”

(3) For thus says the LORD to the men of Judah and Jerusalem: “Break up your fallow ground. And do not sow among thorns.
(4) Circumcise yourselves to the LORD, And take away the foreskins of your hearts. You men of Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem. Lest My fury come forth like fire, And burn so that no one can quench it. Because of the evil of your doings.”

3. God’s Restoration – Forgiveness, Mercy & Love

Jer 9:23-24

(23) Thus says the LORD: “Let not the wise man glory in his wisdom. Let not the mighty man glory in his might, Nor let the rich man glory in his riches.
(24) But let him who glories glory in this, That he understands and knows Me. That I am the LORD, exercising lovingkindness, judgment, and righteousness in the earth. For in these I delight,” says the LORD.

Jer 22:3

Thus says the LORD: “Execute judgment and righteousness, and deliver the plundered out of the hand of the oppressor. Do no wrong and do no violence to the stranger, the fatherless, or the widow, nor shed innocent blood in this place.

Isa 49:8-9

(8) Thus says the LORD: “In an acceptable time I have heard You. And in the day of salvation I have helped You. I will preserve You and give You As a covenant to the people, To restore the earth. To cause them to inherit the desolate heritages.
(9) That You may say to the prisoners, ‘Go forth’. To those who are in darkness, ‘Show yourselves’. “They shall feed along the roads, And their pastures shall be on all desolate heights.

4. Christ – In Covenant with us – His Godliness

Isa 42:6-9

(6) “I, the LORD, have called You in righteousness, And will hold Your hand. I will keep You and give You as a covenant to the people, As a light to the Gentiles.
(7) To open blind eyes, To bring out prisoners from the prison. Those who sit in darkness from the prison house.
(8) I am the LORD, that is My name. And My glory I will not give to another, Nor My praise to carved images.
(9) Behold, the former things have come to pass, And new things I declare. Before they spring forth I tell you of them.”

1Ti 3:16

(16) And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness. God was manifested in the flesh, Justified in the Spirit, Seen by angels, Preached among the Gentiles. Believed on in the world, Received up in glory.

5. We Regret the Failures of the Body to reach out, love & restore

A big burden on our hearts is that the hope, love & reconciliation that we as Christians have in Jesus, our only hope – by grace given & revealed to us, have not been portrayed accurately to believers, the backslidden & the lostthe leaders & citizens of this nation.

Have we maybe portrayed the Lord Jesus in half measure, in half the gospel for the lack of collaboration & unity amongst the fivefold ministry of Christ? Are we yet so focused on ‘me’ that we look way past the HE that it is all about – The Christ that has come to build His Church on the Five fold SERVICE of Christ to the World…?

Eph 4:10-16

(10) He who descended is also the One who ascended far above all the heavens, that He might fill all things.)
(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,
.

(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.

Isa 61:6-8

(6) But you shall be named the priests of the LORD, They shall call you the servants of our God. You shall eat the riches of the Gentiles, And in their glory you shall boast.
(7) Instead of your shame you shall have double honor, And instead of confusion they shall rejoice in their portion. Therefore in their land they shall possess double; Everlasting joy shall be theirs.
(8) “For I, the LORD, love justice; I hate robbery for burnt offering. I will direct their work in truth, And will make with them an everlasting covenant.

Isa 62:6-7

(6) I have set watchmen on your walls, O Jerusalem; They shall never hold their peace day or night. You who make mention of the LORD, do not keep silent
(7) And give Him no rest till He establishes And till He makes Jerusalem a praise in the earth.

Isa 49:22-23

(22) Thus says the Lord GOD: “Behold, I will lift My hand in an oath to the nations. And set up My standard for the peoples. They shall bring your sons in their arms, And your daughters shall be carried on their shoulders.
(23) Kings shall be your foster fathers, And their queens your nursing mothers. They shall bow down to you with their faces to the earth, And lick up the dust of your feet. Then you will know that
I am the LORD, For they shall not be ashamed who wait for Me.”

From : Mathew Henry’s Commentary of the Whole Bible

Those ( kings, nations & individuals) “who stand it out against the church’s interests, will be forced to yield and to repent of their opposition. They shall bow down to thee and lick the dust. The promise to the church of Philadelphia seems to be borrowed from this (Rev_3:9). I will make those of the synagogue of Satan to come and worship before thy feet.

Or it may be meant of the willing subjection which kings and kingdoms shall pay to Christ the church’s King, as he manifests himself in the church (Psa72:11). All kings shall fall down before him.

And by all this it shall be made to appear, (1.) That God is the Lord, the sovereign Lord of all, against whom there is no standing out nor rising up. (2.) That those who wait for him, in a dependence upon his promise and a resignation to his will, shall not be made ashamed of their hope.

For the vision of peace is for an appointed time, and at the end it shall speak and shall not lie.”

Isa 60:1-5

(1) Arise, shine; For your light has come! And the glory of the LORD is risen upon you.
(2) For behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, And deep darkness the people. But the LORD will arise over you, And His glory will be seen upon you.
(3) The Gentiles shall come to your light, And kings to the brightness of your rising.
(4) “Lift up your eyes all around, and see: They all gather together, they come to you. Your sons shall come from afar, And your daughters shall be nursed at your side.
(5) Then you shall see and become radiant, And your heart shall swell with joy. Because the abundance of the sea shall be turned to you, The wealth of the Gentiles shall come to you.

Psa 102:12-18

(12) But You, O LORD, shall endure forever, And the remembrance of Your name to all generations.
(13) You will arise and have mercy on Zion. For the time to favor her, Yes, the set time, has come.
(14) For Your servants take pleasure in her stones, And show favor to her dust.
(15) So the nations shall fear the name of the LORD, And all the kings of the earth Your glory.
(16) For the LORD shall build up Zion; He shall appear in His glory.
(17) He shall regard the prayer of the destitute, And shall not despise their prayer.
(18) This will be written for the generation to come. That a people yet to be created may praise the LORD.

Be encouraged to just keep on Believing!

Final Declaration:

Isa 11:2-5

(2) The Spirit of the LORD shall rest upon Him, The Spirit of wisdom and understanding, The Spirit of counsel and might. The Spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the LORD.
(3) His delight is in the fear of the LORD, And He shall not judge by the sight of His eyes. Nor decide by the hearing of His ears.
(4) But with righteousness He shall judge the poor, And decide with equity for the meek of the earth. He shall strike the earth with the rod of His mouth. And with the breath of His lips He shall slay the wicked.
(5) Righteousness shall be the belt of His loins, And faithfulness the belt of His waist.

Isa 54:17

No weapon formed against you shall prosper. And every tongue which rises against you in judgment You shall condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, And their righteousness is from Me,” Says the LORD.

GOD’s Throne

(14) Righteousness and justice are the foundation of Your throne; Mercy and truth go before Your face.
(15) Blessed are the people who know the joyful sound! They walk, O LORD, in the light of Your countenance.
(16) In Your name they rejoice all day long, And in Your righteousness they are exalted.
(17) For You are the glory of their strength, And in Your favor our horn is exalted.
(18) For our shield belongs to the LORD, And our king to the Holy One of Israel.

GOD’s Righteous Servant

(19) Then You spoke in a vision to Your holy one, And said: “I have given help to one who is mighty; I have exalted one chosen from the people.
(20) I have found My servant David; With My holy oil I have anointed him,
(21) With whom My hand shall be established; Also My arm shall strengthen him.

THE ENEMY WILL NOT PREVAIL AGAINST US

(22) The enemy shall not outwit him, Nor the son of wickedness afflict him.
(23) I will beat down his foes before his face, And plague those who hate him.
(24) “But My faithfulness and My mercy shall be with him, And in My name his horn shall be exalted.

HIs 1ST born set as highest of all kings of the earth

(25) Also I will set his hand over the sea, And his right hand over the rivers.
(26) He shall cry to Me, ‘You are my Father, My God, and the rock of my salvation.’
(27) Also I will make him My firstborn, The highest of the kings of the earth.

(28) My mercy I will keep for him forever, And My covenant shall stand firm with him.
(29) His seed also I will make to endure forever, And his throne as the days of heaven.

(30) “If his sons forsake My law And do not walk in My judgments,
(31) If they break My statutes And do not keep My commandments,
(32) Then I will punish their transgression with the rod, And their iniquity with stripes.

(33) Nevertheless My lovingkindness I will not utterly take from him, Nor allow My faithfulness to fail.
(34) My covenant I will not break, Nor alter the word that has gone out of My lips.
(35) Once I have sworn by My holiness; I will not lie to David:
(36) His seed shall endure forever, And his throne as the sun before Me;

(37) It shall be established forever like the moon, Even like the faithful witness in the sky.” Selah

Scripture [1] Act 17:22-32 – Introducing the Unknown GOD – REPENT

REPENT – The DAY of His Judgement is Coming
Therefore, the One whom you worship without knowing, Him I proclaim to you…

(22) Then Paul stood in the midst of the Areopagus and said, “Men of Athens, I perceive that in all things you are very religious;
(23) for as I was passing through and considering the objects of your worship, I even found an altar with this inscription:

TO THE UNKNOWN GOD. Therefore, the One whom you worship without knowing, Him I proclaim to you:
(24) God, who made the world and everything in it, since He is Lord of heaven and earth, does not dwell in temples made with hands.
(25) Nor is He worshiped with men’s hands, as though He needed anything, since He gives to all life, breath, and all things.

(26) And He has made from one blood every nation of men to dwell on all the face of the earth, and has determined their pre-appointed times and the boundaries of their dwellings,
(27) so that they should seek the Lord, in the hope that they might grope for Him and find Him, though He is not far from each one of us;

(28) for in Him we live and move and have our being, as also some of your own poets have said, ‘For we are also His offspring.’
(29) Therefore, since we are the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Divine Nature is like gold or silver or stone, something shaped by art and man’s devising.

(30) Truly, these times of ignorance God overlooked, but now commands all men everywhere to repent,
(31) because He has appointed a day on which He will judge the world in righteousness by the Man whom He has ordained. He has given assurance of this to all by raising Him from the dead.”

(32) And when they heard of the resurrection of the dead, some mocked, while others said, “We will hear you again on this matter.”

(16) Nevertheless when one turns to the Lord, the veil is taken away.
(17) Now the Lord is the Spirit; and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.
(18) But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the Lord.

Jas 4:7-8, 10, 12

(7) Therefore, submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you.
(8) Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded. (10) Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and He will lift you up. (12) There is one Lawgiver, who is able to save and to destroy. Who are you to judge another?

Amo 5:10-15, 24

(10) They hate the one who rebukes in the gate, And they abhor the one who speaks uprightly.
(11) Therefore, because you tread down the poor And take grain taxes from him, Though you have built houses of hewn stone, Yet you shall not dwell in them; You have planted pleasant vineyards, But you shall not drink wine from them.
(12) For I know your manifold transgressions And your mighty sins: Afflicting the just and taking bribes; Diverting the poor from justice at the gate.
(13) Therefore, the prudent keep silent at that time, For it is an evil time.
(14) Seek good and not evil, That you may live; So the LORD God of hosts will be with you, As you have spoken.
(15) Hate evil, love good; Establish justice in the gate. It may be that the LORD God of hosts Will be gracious to the remnant of Joseph.
(24) But let justice run down like water, And righteousness like a mighty stream.

Deu 7:5-11

(5) But thus you shall deal with them: you shall destroy their altars, and break down their sacred pillars, and cut down their wooden images, and burn their carved images with fire.
(6) “For you are a holy people to the LORD your God; the LORD your God has chosen you to be a people for Himself, a special treasure above all the peoples on the face of the earth.
(7) The LORD did not set His love on you nor choose you because you were more in number than any other people, for you were the least of all peoples;
(8) but because the LORD loves you, and because He would keep the oath which He swore to your fathers, the LORD has brought you out with a mighty hand, and redeemed you from the house of bondage, from the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt.
(9) “Therefore know that the LORD your God, He is God, the faithful God who keeps covenant and mercy for a thousand generations with those who love Him and keep His commandments;
(10) and He repays those who hate Him to their face, to destroy them. He will not be slack with him who hates Him; He will repay him to his face.
(11) Therefore you shall keep the commandment, the statutes, and the judgments which I command you today, to observe them.

Deu 12:3-5

(3) And you shall destroy their altars, break their sacred pillars, and burn their wooden images with fire; you shall cut down the carved images of their gods and destroy their names from that place.
(4) You shall not worship the LORD your God with such things.
(5) “But you shall seek the place where the LORD your God chooses, out of all your tribes, to put His name for His dwelling place; and there you shall go.

Heb 12:25-29

(25) See that you do not refuse Him who speaks. For if they did not escape who refused Him who spoke on earth, much more shall we not escape if we turn away from Him who speaks from heaven,
(26) whose voice then shook the earth; but now He has promised, saying, “YET ONCE MORE I SHAKE NOT ONLY THE EARTH, BUT ALSO HEAVEN.”
(27) Now this, “YET ONCE MORE,” indicates the removal of those things that are being shaken, as of things that are made, that the things which cannot be shaken may remain.
(28) Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom which cannot be shaken, let us have grace, by which we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear.
(29) For our God is a consuming fire.

Lev 19:31  ‘Give no regard to mediums and familiar spirits; do not seek after them, to be defiled by them: I am the LORD your God.
Lev 20:6  ‘And the person who turns to mediums and familiar spirits, to prostitute himself with them, I will set My face against that person and cut him off from his people.
Lev 20:27  ‘A man or a woman who is a medium, or who has familiar spirits, shall surely be put to death; they shall stone them with stones. Their blood shall be upon them.’ “

1Ki 8:47  yet when they come to themselves in the land where they were carried captive, and repent, and make supplication to You in the land of those who took them captive, saying, ‘We have sinned and done wrong, we have committed wickedness’;
2Ch 6:37  yet when they come to themselves in the land where they were carried captive, and repent, and make supplication to You in the land of their captivity, saying, ‘We have sinned, we have done wrong, and have committed wickedness’;

Isa 51:3-6

(3) For the LORD will comfort Zion, He will comfort all her waste places; He will make her wilderness like Eden, And her desert like the garden of the LORD; Joy and gladness will be found in it, Thanksgiving and the voice of melody.
(4) “Listen to Me, My people; And give ear to Me, O My nation: For law will proceed from Me, And I will make My justice rest As a light of the peoples.
(5) My righteousness is near, My salvation has gone forth, And My arms will judge the peoples; The coastlands will wait upon Me, And on My arm they will trust.
(6) Lift up your eyes to the heavens, And look on the earth beneath. For the heavens will vanish away like smoke, The earth will grow old like a garment, And those who dwell in it will die in like manner; But My salvation will be forever, And My righteousness will not be abolished.

Psa 72:1-20 Prayers for a Righteous Kingdom

(12) For He will deliver the needy when he cries, The poor also, and him who has no helper.
(13) He will spare the poor and needy, And will save the souls of the needy.
(14) He will redeem their life from oppression and violence; And precious shall be their blood in His sight.
(15) And He shall live; And the gold of Sheba will be given to Him; Prayer also will be made for Him continually, And daily He shall be praised.
(16) There will be an abundance of grain in the earth, On the top of the mountains; Its fruit shall wave like Lebanon; And those of the city shall flourish like grass of the earth.
(17) His name shall endure forever; His name shall continue as long as the sun. And men shall be blessed in Him; All nations shall call Him blessed.
(18) Blessed be the LORD God, the God of Israel, Who only does wondrous things!
(19) And blessed be His glorious name forever! And let the whole earth be filled with His glory. Amen and Amen.

A. Introduction

“Biblical doctrine of government emphasizes a multifaceted governmental structure of FAMILY, CHURCH, and STATE—each grounded in self-control under God.” (1)
There are two kingdoms, and they are in conflict with each other. One is the Kingdom of God and the other the kingdom of Satan’s abode of darkness.
In God’s Kingdom God sends His angels as messengers to those who will SEE, ENTER, & INHERIT His Kingdom. “Satan’s one major strategy is to assign ruling spirits to influence governmental leaders. Once leaders are conquered, evil spirits endeavor to get them enact laws prohibiting any further advance of the Kingdom of God.”

Evidence & example in Scripture of leaders that have been subjected to these are the prince of Tyre & king of Babylon (Ez28:11-14-15-19, Is14:3-27). Also, Nebuchadnezzar affected by the prince of Persia, and also Daniel. There are many more, of which Esther’s obedience in calling her nation to fasting and national prayer executed the destruction of wickedness perspired through Haman’s territorial reign.

In recent examples we can refer to Hitler, Sadam Hussein, Putin, Hezbollah, Hamas…, & the government of Iran who is the face of threatening the world with nuclear warfare.
(Cindy Jacobs, 2006),Paraphrased.

B. Strategic Prayer Points – Governance & Culture Gate

SEE bottom of page for specific info re. SA GOVERNMENT STRUCTURES & FUNCTIONS of the South African Government.

1. THANKSGIVING, PRAISE & ADORATION.

Psa 97:9-12
9) For You, LORD, are most high above all the earth; You are exalted far above all gods. 10) You who love the LORD, hate evil! He preserves the souls of His saints; He delivers them out of the hand of the wicked.
11) Light is sown for the righteous, gladness for the upright in heart.
12) Rejoice in the LORD, you righteous, give thanks at the remembrance of His holy name.

2. PERSONAL Repentance – being God’s hands & feet.

Rom 6:21-22
(21) What fruit did you have then in the things of which you are now ashamed? For the end of those things is death. (22) But now having been set free from sin, and having become slaves of God, you have your fruit to holiness, and the end, everlasting life.

Rom 12:17-21
(17) Repay no one evil for evil. Have regard for good things in the sight of all men.
(18) If it is possible, as much as depends on you, live peaceably with all men.
(19) Beloved, do not avenge yourselves, but rather give place to wrath; for it is written, “vengeance is mine, I will repay,” says the Lord.(20) therefore “if your enemy is hungry, feed him; if thirsty, give him a drink; for in so doing you will heap coals of fire on his head.” (21) Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

• Father, we stand today before You as citizens of this nation, 1stly take responsibility for our own thoughts, words & actions as the Word convict us of sin in His righteousness… Repent…

3. COMMUNION

Joh 1:29 “Behold! The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world! Thank You Lord Jesus. Today we remember Your sacrifice, receive forgiveness, salvation in Your love.

4. DEFINITIONS OF GOVERNANCE

Good governance results in word and action demonstrating:- accountability; leadership; integrity; stewardship; and transparency. https://www.bcauditor.com (2)

God’s principles of governance result in accountability for good & evil thoughts, words & actions.
Good governance includes a love for justice, …ensuring that people are judged correctly, according to the Biblical standards of what is right and wrong; treating the poor fairly; defending the poor, helping the children of the poor and punishing their oppressors. “ https://caribbeannewsglobal.com/ (3)

A Biblical format of Government is found in in 1 Pe 2:13-17 :

  • 1. Submission to authorities,
  • 2. Punishment for evildoers &
  • 3. Praise for good-doers – that will silence foolishness,
  • 4. Respecting of human rights for all,
  • 5. Love for fellow believers,
  • 6. Reverential fear & awe of God and
  • 7. Honor the institution of governance.

Biblical Meaning of Governance:

“Good governance is shown based on the principles of justice, righteousness and compassion, defending the rights of the poor and marginalized and protecting the people from conflict.” https://anglicanalliance.org/ 6)

PRAY: that accountability, justice & the righteousness of the Lord Jesus Christ will become the standard of Governance in this nation.
PRAY: that the citizens of this nation will cry out for justice & not accept anything else BUT the standard for Governance from the Scriptures.
PRAY: that God’s ordinances (decrees, rules, orders, regulations & laws), – the way in which He wills to rule the world in His Sovereign wisdom by the 7 Spirits of the Holy Spirit & angelic hosts, will become the standard of our nation’s governmental rulers.
PRAY: that the new elected will turn from any unjust ways – to become compelled by the 7 Spirit’s interventions of the Almighty to repent and start serving this nation in righteousness & justice.

DEFINITION of & PRAYERS for CULTURE GATE

The set of norms, behaviors, beliefs, customs, and values shared by the population of a sovereign nation. Also refers to specific characteristics such as language, religion, ethnic and racial identity, and cultural history and traditions. https://www.igi-global.com/ (4)

Jer 1:10

See, I have this day set you over the nations and over the kingdoms, To root out and to pull down, To destroy and to throw down, To build and to plant.”

• PRAY that every tribe, tongue & culture will be treated fairly by a new dispensation of rulers.
• PRAY that the wickedness transpiring from the different cultures in this nation will become subject to the judgment of God, His JUSTICE & UPRIGHTNESS to uproot, dismantle & change the cultures of this nation to adhere to the JESUS CULTURE we INVOKE now over South Africa!

2Ch 14:2-7
(2) Asa did what was good and right in the eyes of the LORD his God,(3) for he removed the altars of the foreign gods and the high places, and broke down the sacred pillars and cut down the wooden images. (4) He commanded Judah to seek the LORD God of their fathers, and to observe the law and the commandment. (5) He also removed the high places and the incense altars, and the kingdom was quiet under him.
(6) And he built fortified cities he had no war…, because the LORD had given him rest.
(7) “Let us build these cities and make walls around them, and towers, gates, and bars, while the land is yet before us, because we have sought the LORD our God; we have sought Him, and He has given us rest on every side.” So they built and prospered.

•Father, we ask forgiveness where we have actually allowed – by our own negligence, lethargy, lack of prayers or commitment… – the building of demonic altars from inherited witchcraft, idols, secret societies, all evil practices & agendas, NA groups & foreign cultures.

WE PRAY for law & order – a renewed structure for Godly Divine Order & stability to return to our nation.

6. RIGHTEOUS LEADERS & GOVERNMENT – TO BE ELECTED

Neh 9:13 “You… gave them just ordinances & true laws, good statutes & commandments.

• PRAY: for KINGDOM GOVERNANCE in His RIGHTEOUSNESS to come through the knowledge and wisdom from His Word, ordinances, statutes, His ways, TRUTH…
• PRAY: Father, Your will is for us to lead a quiet & peaceable life by good governance:

1Ti 2:1-2, 3:1

I exhort 1st… that supplications, prayers, intercessions, giving of thanks be made for all men, (2) for kings and all who are in authority, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and reverence.
Rom 13:1 Let every soul be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and the authorities that exist are appointed by God.

Dan 2:21 And He changes the times and the seasons; He removes kings and raises up kings; He gives wisdom to the wise And knowledge to those who have understanding
Exo 19:5-6, 10-12 …if you will indeed obey My voice and keep My covenant, then you shall be a special treasure to Me above all people; for all the earth is Mine. (6) And you shall be to Me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation.’…

• Father, we pray for YOUR RIGHTEOUS RULERS to be elected in our nation for as we come to bow our knees in repentance before you.
• Father, we petition You for the council of the Trinity God to determine & execute the outcome of South Africa’s elections for May 2024 as per Your Scriptures.

Pro 29:25-26
(25) The fear of man brings a snare, But whoever trusts in the LORD shall be safe.
(26) Many seek the ruler’s favor, But justice for man comes from the LORD.
• We break the power of intimidation over the masses through lies & empty promises & ask that it will be exposed & the innocent’s eyes will become open & vigilant to the schemes of deceit.

7. IDENTIFICATTIONAL REPENTANCE PRAYERS – GOVERNANCE

a) We take responsibility for the state of the nation – have mercy on us.

Php 3:18-20 we know that
(18) For many .. are the enemies of the cross of Christ:
(19) whose end is destruction, whose god is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame—who set their mind on earthly things.
(20) For our citizenship is in heaven, from which we also eagerly wait for the Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ.

• Farther, we stand in the gap for our Nation through REPENTANCE in repairing the broken walls of our SOCIETY, our Villages, Towns & Cities – of our Nation. Ps78
• As Believers in Jesus Christ, we trust in the complete redemption our Nation can receive at the FEET OF THE CROSS… we come & take responsibility for the state our Nation is in…:

2Ch 16:9 For the eyes of the LORD run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to show
Himself strong on behalf of those whose heart is loyal to Him. In this you have done
foolishly, therefore from now on you shall have wars.”

• PRAY: For the unrighteousness, idolatry & sin in governance, that has stripped the nation of South Africa from her mandate as a sheep nation & becoming more prone to resist everything pertaining to a Christ-like culture.
For South Africa’s Government’s stance against Israel as a nation – because of their hatred of the God of Israel and rather relying on other alliances with Palestine, Iran, Hamas, Islam…
• For South Africa’s hostile attitude in concept of ‘Israel’ (those who belong to God, through Christ His Son by rebirth into commonwealth of Israel’s new covenant with God). SA is now in ignorant defiance of God’s laws and therefore under God’s judgement – UNLESS we repent!

b) Father, we repent for mishandling of our nation’s resources.

Pro 28:2, 4-5
(2) Because of the transgression of a land, many are its princes; But by a man of understanding and knowledge right will be prolonged. (4) Those who forsake the law praise the wicked, But such as keep the law contend with them. (5) Evil men do not understand justice, But those who seek the LORD understand all.

• PRAY: for the unrighteous way the leadership, cultural & spiritual structures in South Africa have STRIPPED this nation of its wealth, resources, integrity, people & intellectual wealth…

Pro 29:2-16
(2) When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice; But when a wicked man rules, the people groan.
(4) The king establishes the land by justice, But he who receives bribes overthrows it.
(7) The righteous considers the cause of the poor, But the wicked does not understand such knowledge. (8) Scoffers set a city aflame, But wise men turn away wrath.
(9) If a wise man contends with a foolish man, Whether the fool rages or laughs, there is no peace. (10) The bloodthirsty hate the blameless, But the upright seek his well-being.
(12) If a ruler pays attention to lies, All his servants become wicked. (14) The king who judges the poor with truth, His throne will be established forever. (16) When the wicked are multiplied, transgression increases; But the righteous will see their fall.

• We repent for ALL bloodshed in our nation, also driven politically – lust after MONEY, power, greed, through lawlessness, hatred, pride & utter wickedness, lack of reverence for life.
“Forgive them for they do not know what they are doing.”


c) PRAYER FOR SOUTH AFRICA against the spirit of MAMMON – “the LOVE of money is the root of ALL evil!!!

Pro 28:19-20 (19) He who tills his land will have plenty of bread, But he who follows frivolity will have poverty enough! (20) A faithful man will abound with blessings, But he who hastens to be rich will not go unpunished.
Lev 25:17-19 (17) Therefore you shall not oppress one another, but you shall fear your God; for I am the LORD your God. (18) ‘So you shall observe My statutes and keep My judgments, and perform them; and you will dwell in the land in safety.
(19) Then the land will yield its fruit, and you will eat your fill, and dwell there in safety.

Eze 34:2 “Son of man, PROPHESY against the shepherds of Israel, prophesy and say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord GOD to the shepherds: “Woe to the shepherds of Israel who feed themselves! Should not the shepherds feed the flocks?

Pro 28:16 A ruler who lacks understanding is a great oppressor, But he who hates covetousness will prolong his days.

• PRAY that our nation’s citizens & leaders will shun from lust after prestige, fame & greed… the lust of the eyes, the pride of life…BUT that they will CHOOSE GOD FIRST!
• PRAY that the lust after power, control & manipulation of information & resources will be exposed & the oppression of subordinates & citizens will be shouted from the roof tops.
• For Godly RULERS to come into power that will be good stewards of our nation’s wealth, mandate – responsible & accountable to the people they ought to serve!

d) WORKERS of INIQUITY

Isa 22:19-23

(19) So I will drive you out of your office, And from your position he will pull you down. (20) ‘Then it shall be in that day, That I will call My servant Eliakim the son of Hilkiah; (21) I will clothe him with your robe And strengthen him with your belt; I will commit your responsibility into his hand. He shall be a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem And to the house of Judah. (22) The key of the house of David I will lay on his shoulder; So he shall open, and no one shall shut; And he shall shut, and no one shall open. (23) I will fasten him as a peg in a secure place, And he will become a glorious throne to his father’s house.

Psa 14:4-5
(4) Have all the workers of iniquity no knowledge, Who eat up my people as they eat bread, And do not call on the LORD? (5) There they are in great fear, For God is with the generation of the righteous.

Psa 36:9-12
(9) For with You is the fountain of life; In Your light we see light.
(10) Oh, continue Your lovingkindness to those who know You, And Your righteousness to the upright in heart. (11) Let not the foot of pride come against me, And let not the hand of the wicked drive me away. (12) There the workers of iniquity have fallen; They have been cast down and are not able to rise.

• PRAY: that the unrighteous workers of iniquity who occupies the seats of influence in this nation’s GOVERNMENTAL OFFICES and the CULTURE of SOCIAL SOCIETY will be removed from positions, scrapped from the roll & not find any influence elsewhere unless they repent & turn from their wicked ways of the utter detriment of this nation’s good standing before God.

• PRAY: that our Lord – the Fountain of life, the kingdom of His righteousness will invade the building, occupy the seats & walk the corridors or SA’s parliament, courtrooms & administrative hallways through His righteous servants.

8. DECLARATIONS – Transformation & Restoration of South Africa
A Nations/individual well-being comes from God…

(7) Behold, their valiant ones cry without; the ambassadors of peace weep bitterly.

Isa 45:1-13
God gives victory to His anointed for God to receive all the GLORY & HONOR- be glorified!

(1) “Thus says the LORD to His anointed, To Cyrus, whose right hand I have held—To subdue nations before him And loose the armor of kings, To open before him the double doors, So that the gates will not be shut:
(2) ‘I will go before you And make the crooked places straight; I will break in pieces the gates of bronze And cut the bars of iron.
(3) I will give you the treasures of darkness And hidden riches of secret places, That you may know that I, the LORD, Who call you by your name, Am the God of Israel.
(4) For Jacob My servant’s sake, And Israel My elect, I have even called you by your name; I have named you, though you have not known Me.
(5) I am the LORD, and there is no other; There is no God besides Me. I will gird you, though you have not known Me,
(6) That they may know from the rising of the sun to its setting That there is none besides Me. I am the LORD, and there is no other;
(7) I form the light and create darkness, I make peace and create calamity; I, the LORD, do all these things.’

9. Christ’s authority, governance & reign

Isa 61:1-11

(1) “The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon Me, Because the LORD has anointed Me To preach good tidings to the poor; He has sent Me to heal the broken-hearted, To proclaim liberty to the captives, And the opening of the prison to those who are bound;
(2) To proclaim the acceptable year of the LORD, And the day of vengeance of our God; To comfort all who mourn,(3) To console those who mourn in Zion, To give them beauty for ashes, The oil of joy for mourning, The garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; That they may be called trees of righteousness, The planting of the LORD, that He may be glorified.” (4) And they shall rebuild the old ruins, They shall raise up the former desolations, And they shall repair the ruined cities, The desolations of many generations.

• Therefore, we Pray FOR the RIGHTEOUSNESS of the only Saviour of all peoples, people groups, tribes, tongues, and Nations, to infiltrate this NATION in all areas of governance….
• We pray that the 7 Spirits of God, will come and stand at our NATIONS GATES…as judge, in justice for equity, for righteousness & righteous governance & Your glory.

Isa 11:2-5

(2) The Spirit of the LORD shall rest upon Him (SA) , The Spirit of wisdom and understanding, The Spirit of counsel and might, The Spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the LORD.
(3) His (SA’s) delight is in the fear of the LORD, And He shall not judge by the sight of His eyes, Nor decide by the hearing of His ears;
(4) But with righteousness He shall judge the poor, And decide with equity for the meek of the earth; He shall strike the earth with the rod of His mouth, And with the breath of His lips He shall slay the wicked.
(5) Righteousness shall be the belt of His loins, And faithfulness the belt of His waist.

10. Reverential Fear & Awe of God

Lev 10:3 “This is what the LORD spoke, saying: ‘By those who come near Me I must be regarded as holy; And before all the people I must be glorified.’
Deu 9:3 Therefore understand today that the LORD your God is He who goes over before you as a consuming fire. He will destroy them and bring them down before you; so you shall drive them out and destroy them quickly, as the LORD has said to you.
Heb 12:29 For our God is a consuming fire.

• PRAY: the reverential fear & awe of God to fall on the people & leaders of this nation.
• PRAY: that the altars erected for wickedness – rebellion that is as witchcraft, sorcery, idolatrous practices & altars, demonic councils & practices, the altar of mammon & all its cohorts will come under the judgement of the Almighty God of Israel.
• That the reverential fear & awe of God will fall in the highways & byways, in the corridors & hallways, the lobbies & courtrooms – the holiness of God will convict & expel unrighteousness.
For you have… …delivered us from the power of darkness and conveyed us into the kingdom of the Son of His love, in whom we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins. Col 1:13-14

• We step into the AUTHORITY that we have in the Name of Christ to pray & ask for Your salvation, transformation & total redemption (renewal), for our Nation….

Eph 3:10-12 to the intent that now the manifold wisdom of God might be made known by the church to the principalities and powers in the heavenly places,(11) according to the eternal purpose which He accomplished in Christ Jesus our Lord, (12) in whom we have boldness and access with confidence through faith in Him.

• PRAY: We came to pray Lord, for the working out of the salvation for SA in fear & trembling. We TRUST & BELIEF on YOU for the REBIRTH of a Nation as You did in 1948 for Israel!

• PRAY: With repentant, humbled, desperate hearts we ask Lord Jesus that You will come again and TAKE HOLD of this Nation, as the Father has given SA to You in Psalm 2!

Psa 2:1-12

(1) Why do the nations rage, And the people plot a vain thing?
(2) The kings of the earth set themselves, And the rulers take counsel together, Against the LORD and against His Anointed, saying, (3) “Let us break Their bonds in pieces And cast away Their cords from us.” (4) He who sits in the heavens shall laugh; The LORD shall hold them in derision. (5) Then He shall speak to them in His wrath, And distress them in His deep displeasure:

(6) “Yet I have set My King On My holy hill of Zion.”
(7) “I will declare the decree: The LORD has said to Me, ‘You are My Son, Today I have begotten You. (8) Ask of Me, and I will give You The nations for Your inheritance, And the ends of the earth for Your possession.
(10) Now therefore, be wise, O kings; Be instructed, you judges of the earth.
(11) Serve the LORD with fear, And rejoice with trembling.
(12) Kiss the Son, lest He be angry, And you perish in the way, When His wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all those who put their trust in Him.

As citizens of this Nation… we come with repentant & humble hearts to call forth a TURNAROUND of this Nation from our wicked ways in returning to GOD! 2 Chron 7 V14…
Thank You Father that You incline Your ear towards us & forgive us our sins & that You will heal our Land.

11. FINAL DECLARATION OVER SOUTH AFRICA

We therefore now declare :

Psa 89:13-18

(13) You have a mighty arm; Strong is Your hand, and high is Your right hand.
(14) Righteousness and justice are the foundation of Your throne; Mercy and truth go before Your face. (15) Blessed are the people who know the joyful sound! They walk, O LORD, in the light of Your countenance. (16) In Your name they rejoice all day long, And in Your righteousness, they are exalted. (17) For You are the glory of their strength, And in Your favor our horn is exalted. (18) For our shield belongs to the LORD, And our king to the Holy One of Israel.

12. THANKSGIVING & PRAISE – SHOFAR BLAST in exuberant honor, praise & glory of our God & KING.

(3) But let the righteous be glad; Let them rejoice before God; Yes, let them rejoice exceedingly. (4) Sing to God, sing praises to His name; Extol Him who rides on the clouds, By His name YAH, And rejoice before Him.


Rev 12:12 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.”

Rev 7:17 for the Lamb who is in the midst of the throne will shepherd them and lead them to living fountains of waters. And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes.”

Psa 126:2 Then our mouth was filled with laughter, And our tongue with singing. Then they said among the nations, “The LORD has done great things for them.”


Mar 12:29-31(29) Jesus answered him, “The first of all the commandments is:

(30) and you shall LOVE THE LORD YOUR GOD with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength.’ This is the first commandment.
(31) And the second, like it, is this: ‘YOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF.’ There is no other commandment greater than these.”

12. The Lord’s Prayer.

GOD OF OUR FATHERS


GOD of our FATHERS, GOD of THIS LAND
We stand BEFORE You, CRYING out for Your hand
See in Your MERCY, the EMPTY SOULS of CAPTIVE HEARTS
THOUSANDS who’ll never SEE Your FACE or FEEL Your EMBRACE

Chorus:

YOU are GOD, YOU are the FATHER OF ALL LOST and BOUND
YOU CAN HEAL and SAVE, SEAL THEM IN YOUR SAVING GRACE
HEAL! LET YOUR KINGDOM COME! HEAL! LET YOUR KINGDOM COME!
As it is in heaven, let it be on earth
HEAL! LET YOUR KINGDOM COME! HEAL! LET YOUR KINGDOM COME

SEND FORTH Your Spirit, come down in all Your HOLINESS
Let Your GLORY fall from high, PREPARE US as Your BRIDE
SHOW US the LAMBS; Your KINGDOM-SONS called BY their NAME
SEND us FORTH into this land, To REAP in Jesus’ Name

Chorus:

YOU are GOD, YOU are the FATHER OF ALL LOST and BOUND
YOU CAN HEAL and SAVE, SEAL THEM IN YOUR SAVING GRACE
HEAL! LET YOUR KINGDOM COME! HEAL! LET YOUR KINGDOM COME!
As it is in heaven, let it be on earth
HEAL! LET YOUR KINGDOM COME! HEAL! LET YOUR KINGDOM COME

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.

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].
