Arise and Show Yourself

ISAIAH 60:1 has an undertone which we as the Church have not comprehended fully. Arise !!!!! Get up, Rise up, Grow up, Come up into the fullness of what God has for you.

How do I do this ?

Break loose in the confines of your mind. Break free from that thought in you that says you can’t ! Oppose every contrary imagination ! Break the circumstance of frustration and depression by decree’s of freedom and life !

In our prayer meeting last night I saw this image of a bat hanging in a cave. To me his whole world looked upside down. Your world may be in mayhem today and feel completely upside down but it’s the time of recuperation and restoration. When that happens it seems as if all things are upside down (bat mentality) but the moment the pursuit of potential and destiny comes, ALL turns right side up !

Arise and Shine ! There is something in you that you must allow to break forth. Eli was in the temple for many years and his sight was dim when a young man called Samuel walked in. Eli had grown accustomed to the voice of God to the point that when God actually called in the night, he didn’t recognize it anymore. Within each and every one of us lies a Samuel that must hear the call for the new. The old way in us (Eli) can’t see the breakthrough’s anymore. The Eli in us can’t recognize the voice of the new call to break forth and come out !

Arise Samuel and sentence the Eli dimension in us ! This is our day !

Arise and Shine for your Light has come and your day has broken ! Step into a new frame of mind and give birth to newness of life. You are pregnant with the supernatural !

Arise !!!!!!!

GATES OF CHANGE

I believe we are at a point on no return.

In our walk with God there are times that God pushes us through the gates of change, never to return to what we were. I believe we are at such a point in our walk with God.

God moved a shepherd boy named David beyond the field into the kingdom where kingship awaited him.

A young man called Daniel was moved beyond his city into a system where he as foreigner became second in command of the nation.

God moved an Esther out of her uncle’s home into a beauty pageant to steal the heart of a king and save a nation. After those gates they never were the same again ! To what would they return ?

This is our point of no return where we burn the ploughs of yesterday and slaughter the oxen that kept us going for so long. It’s a season to be unyoked and to turn our back on the days of old to pour out fresh water on the next generation. Move on from the heights praise and worship to higher. Move on from the plains of boredom and frustration to the hills of fulfillment and blessing. Shake yourself loose from the shackles of traditional relations and live !

There is a song of freedom in your heart that must be sung. There’s a prayer of release that must be declared. There’s a cry of passion that must be resounded! Let your voice be heard in the realm of the complacent.

Break the cycle today and press for more !

There must be more…..there must be much, much more !

Let that be the hunger in your life and don’t ever be satisfied with today !

There IS more !

UPWARD FRUIT

The sound of Newness and Forward rings fresh in my ear!

Rain is a forerunner of new growth. As the rain fall in the natural and causes the hidden seed that was embedded to sprout, likewise when the rain of the Spirit falls, it will cause that which was hidden for so long to sprout and prove that the soil is not barren!

We consider a piece of ground and glance over it with a careless eye, observing nothing. The next moment we take a breath and call it barren because we see nothing! In the life of those around you, take great care when you look over the fields of their lives. Even though you may glance at the nothingness, there may be seed deeply embedded that was just waiting for the rain. Rain has the power to reveal what was hidden for many dry seasons.

In 2 KINGS 19:29-30 Hezekiah speaks of a sign. He breaks up the produce after rain in a few categories:

a) There is fruit in our lives that grows of itself, needs no assistance;

b) There is fruit that comes voluntarily and needs no coaxing or begging;

c) There is fruit that needs effort put in and contribution on your part.

Irrespective what is required to have the fruit manifest in our lives, we need the key ingredient which is RAIN!

In this awesome portion of scripture the key of fruit is explained!

First the root goes downward BEFORE the fruit goes upward!

At times we can’t understand the downward, but I want you to know that there is an upward afterward!

You were not born be caught in the downward forever but God has designed the upward as well.

Take heart, take courage, you are on the upward!

NEWNESS

The greatest enemy of any marriage or relationship is that we grow use to one another. We lose touch with each other because we got so use to being in each other’s presence. I believe there is a sound of NEWNESS in the atmosphere.

There is a challenge out from the heavens that resounds NEWNESS ! This morning while we were praying, I caught on to something that God had been busy with me for quite some time ! I think I have missed this all along but finally my brethren I think I got it.

“You will always move in the opposite direction of what you were called into, before you move in line with what you’re supposed to be!”

Allow me to explain, Before any building is built up, it’s built down !

We have this passion to erect an awesome building or skyscraper with 20 or 30 levels. That building NEVER – NEVER goes up unless it first went down !

You’re right, the way up was the opposite direction in the form of the foundation !

That building NEVER – NEVER goes up unless it first went down !

You’re right, the way up was the opposite direction in the form of the foundation !

We are speaking and praying and confessing our 10 000 seater into being and suddenly we battle to get 50 people together !!!! Take courage you’re on your way up ! You may be declaring and confessing the blessing and abundance of God over your life and the next moment all hell broke loose and poverty moved in !!!!!! Take good courage you’re on your way up !

We are stepping into NEWNESS and the we are on the way up !

Break the mold and shake yourself loose from your bondage and captivity….and declare….”I’m on my way up !”

FORWARD

We are in a period of Fasting as a congregation and we are being challenged by God to forget the old way of doing things. Your past shall be forgotten and irrelevant. A new thing, such a work as was never yet done in the world must come forth from you.

In LEVITICUS 26 the Word of God declares to make room for the new !

Clear out the old store of things kept too long. Your stock of old corn would be still unexhausted and large when the next harvest will bring a new supply. Make way for the new corn, which also is so plentiful, that of itself it will fill up your barns.

It was also Paul of old that aimed to do this one thing, forgetting what lies behind and reaching to that which lies ahead. We have to be able to turn our back on yesterday and go FORWARD !

Let it go and go FORWARD !

Get up from your captive place and go FORWARD !

It may be that you are caught up with such bad memories or even concepts about

yesterday that’s not God like. This is exactly where the children of Israel found themselves when they faced the Red sea before them and the Egyptian army behind them. In EXODUS 14 there was nothing behind them but:

a) Slavery;

b) 400 years of bad memories;

c) An army wanting to kill them !

It also states in the very same chapter that you will never see them again !!!!!

There is no turning back ! We have to continue moving FORWARD !

This is also the place where Moses cried out to God and the Lord said, FORWARD !!!!!!

We will never see lack again !

We will never see defeat again !

We will never see famine again !

You will never see me like you see me now !

We can’t remain the same……we were born for greater things !

Make the decision with your spouse and family and choose to go FORWARD !

PICK ME UP

My brother in law has this cute little girl that follows her mother everywhere. Her deepest cry is “pick me up!”

As her mother picks her up, the phone rings, the gate alarm goes off, the kettle boils and the gardener wants to know whether he could leave earlier today. All of these tasks (multi tasking of a housewife) is done with this “pick me up” in her arms. At the end of the day when exhaustion settles in and it all becomes too much, we dread the possibility of another day like this !

We are just like that in many ways.

We pick up so many things along the way that wear us down and instead of dealing with what we have picked up, we try to handle everything else in our lives to the best of our ability with our hands filled with “pick me up things”

LUKE 19:30-34 Jesus says to the disciples, “As you go, you will find a donkey's

colt tied.” Too many times we live our lives tied down like this.

There was nothing wrong with this beast of burden apart from the fact that it was

tied down ! The trap of today’s society is that we are so tied up that what God

actually wants to use us for becomes too much !

Allow me to illustrate:

There was once a man with an imaginary friend. It was a little puppy.

At first he would groom this imaginary friend and after a while he thought it a good idea to start feeding this friend. After a while he got more and more involved with this friend and had to bathe it and so on !

This friend became unbearable and demanded his time more and more.

He would barely be on the phone or this friend would scream out "pick me up"

He would scarcely be in the car or this friend would scream "pick me up"

This imaginary friend started demanding more and more of his time to the point that he had to walk, talk and eat with this thing in his arms all the time ! Then this thing started demanding time even when he tried to sleep. It would scream out "pick me up" the moment he fell asleep. Totally consuming him, his time and his relationships. It constantly demanded "pick me up"

It finally drove him nuts.

He ended up in an institution where all he could do and did was, held this imaginary thing which by now was six times his actual size ! Every moment he had for himself was consumed by this constant demand of "pick me up!"

It seemed that the people in the nut house understood because it was madness !

We pick up stuff like this all the time.

We carry it a bit in the beginning and have the power to put it down. It suddenly demands from me "pick me up." It starts consuming our friendships, rest and every activity, crying out "pick me up!" Then it starts devouring my sleep screaming out "pick me up!" It's totally overgrown, a beast !

I can't put it down anymore !

You can break the cycle and put it down !

In HEBREWS 12 it instructs us to strip off and throw aside every encumbrance, meaning get rid of unnecessary weight and that sin which so cleverly clings to us. It tells us that we have the power to put it down !

Let it go ! We must come to the place where we cast the whole of our care upon Him. Come to the place where we cast all of our anxieties, all our worries, all our concerns, once and for all on Him.

He cares for you affectionately and cares about you watchfully
(1 Peter 5:7).

Father, I invite Your Favor !

It is of utmost importance that the children of God experience favor and prosperity. Yes I know that a lot has been said about prosperity and the rest. However, it’s impossible for any vision to be fulfilled unless there is PROVISION for such.

I took out a few scriptures on favor that we pray over our church and the people. I thought that this would really bless you the moment you start praying them.

So please make a printout of these and pray them in the morning, lunch time or whenever you have a quiet moment.

NUMBERS 6:25 The Lord make His face to shine upon and enlighten you and be gracious (kind, merciful, and giving favor) to you;
- Father, thank you for giving me favor !

1 CORINTHIANS 2:12 Now we have not received the spirit [that belongs to] the world, but the [Holy] Spirit Who is from God, [given to us] that we might realize and comprehend and appreciate the gifts [of divine favor and blessing so freely and lavishly] bestowed on us by God.
- Father I appreciate the gift of divine favor.

2 CORINTHIANS 5:20 So we are Christ's ambassadors, God making His appeal as it were through us. We [as Christ's personal representatives] beg you for His sake to lay hold of the divine favor [now offered you] and be reconciled to God.
- Father, help me to lay hold of the divine favor offered.

1 SAMUEL 2:26 Now the boy Samuel grew and was in favor both with the Lord and with men.
- Father, thank you that I have favor with God and favor with man !

PSALM 90:17 And let the beauty and delightfulness and favor of the Lord our God be upon us; confirm and establish the work of our hands--yes, the work of our hands, confirm and establish it.
- Father, let Your favor now be upon me !
- Father, now that we have Your favor please confirm and establish the work of our hands !

PSALM 5:12 For You, Lord, will bless the [uncompromisingly] righteous [him who is upright and in right standing with You]; as with a shield You will surround him with goodwill (pleasure and favor).
- Father thank you for surrounding me with favor, goodwill and pleasure !
- Father, I invite them as my shield !

PROVERBS 16:15 In the light of the king's countenance is life, and his favor is as a
cloud bringing the spring rain.
- Father, I receive the light of my Kings countenance producing life !
- Father, I receive Your favor as a cloud bringing my rain !
- Father, the drought in my life is broken today !

ISAIAH 48:17 Thus says the Lord, your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel: I am the
Lord your God, Who teaches you to profit, Who leads you in the way that you should go.
- Father, teach me to profit !

PROVERBS 13:22 A good man leaves an inheritance [of moral stability and
goodness] to his children's children, and the wealth of the sinner [finds its way eventually] into
the hands of the righteous, for whom it was laid up.
- Father, the wealth that sinners are storing up will find it's way into my hands now !

2 CORINTHIANS 9:6-8 [Remember] this: he who sows sparingly and grudgingly will also reap sparingly and grudgingly, and he who sows generously [that blessings may come to someone] will also reap generously and with blessings.
2Co 9:7 Let each one [give] as he has made up his own mind and purposed in his heart, not reluctantly or sorrowfully or under compulsion, for God loves (He takes pleasure in, prizes above other things, and is unwilling to abandon or to do without) a cheerful (joyous, ``prompt to do it") giver [whose heart is in his giving]. [Prov. 22:9.]
2Co 9:8 And God is able to make all grace (every favor and earthly blessing) come to you in abundance, so that you may always and under all circumstances and whatever the need be self-sufficient [possessing enough to require no aid or support and furnished in abundance for every good work and charitable donation].
- Father, enable me to reap generously and with blessings !
- Father, touch my heart that I may be a giver without whom You will not do !
- Father, make all grace, every favor and earthly blessing come to me in abundance !
- Father, make me self-sufficient under all circumstances and whatever the need may be !
- Father, cause me to possess enough to require no aid or support !
- Father, cause me to have enough for any offering and donation You may require of me !

PSALM 84:11 For the Lord God is a Sun and Shield; the Lord bestows [present] grace
and favor and [future] glory (honor, splendor, and heavenly bliss)! No good thing will He
withhold from those who walk uprightly.
- Father, thank you for giving me present grace, favor and future glory with heavenly bliss !
- Father, no good thing will you withhold from me and I receive every good thing coming to me now !

PSALM 30:5 For His anger is but for a moment, but His favor is for a lifetime or in His favor is life. Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning.
- Father, Your favor is for a lifetime so never let it be removed from me !
- Father, in Your favor is life and I take it !

PSALM 145:16 You open Your hand and satisfy every living thing with favor.
- Father, open Your hand and satisfy me with Your favor !

JOHN 1:16 For out of His fullness (abundance) we have all received [all had a share and we were all supplied with] one grace after another and spiritual blessing upon spiritual blessing and even favor upon favor and gift [heaped] upon gift.
- Father, thank You for fullness and abundance !
- Father, thank You for grace heaped upon grace in my life !
- Father, thank You for blessing heaped upon blessing in my life !
- Father, thank You for favor heaped upon favor in my life !
- Father , thank You for gift heaped upon gift in my life !
- It's my time and season to reap these because of favor !

HONORABLE LIVES

No two people on earth are alike in taste, experience or lifestyle.
We all have to have certain character traits developed in us that is a requisite for life and godliness. I believe we have come to a season of no more compromise in our lives! This scripture therefore says separate yourself from the iniquity in the world!

In 2 TIMOTHY 2:19-21 there is a challenge for every believer to become a
vessel of honor!
How do we do this?
It lists three statements of how to turn yourself into an honorable vessel:
a) Whoever cleanses himself
b) Whoever separates himself
c) Whoever resists corrupting influences
This is it. The moment you apply these, you have turned yourself into a honorable vessel! We generally want to put the responsibility on the pastor, our teachers or even our spouses. It emphatically states WE ARE RESPONSIBLE!

Those with whom you fellowship will form your future and direct your destiny. It’s a fact that our associates and fellowships are a door to our future! Be careful with whom you fellowship. The church has this issue with fellowships whether great or small. Every program designed is to get people together and have them fellowship with one another. Here we get a mixed multitude and mixed breed of opinions, contributions and backgrounds. It is also a fact that among those are vessels of dishonor. We can impact them and change their values or outlook.

How can we do this?
1 JOHN 1:7 says if we live and walk in the Light AS HE IS in the Light a few
things are evident:
a) We have true unbroken fellowship with one another
b) The blood of Jesus cleanses us
c) The blood of Jesus removes us from all sin and guilt
d) The blood of Jesus keeps us cleansed from sin!
The responsibility lies on us to walk holy, honorable and in the light, exactly as He is in the Light. When we do this, take responsibility for living honorable lives, we have UNBROKEN fellowship with one another!
We can then receive from God and declare that the blood of Jesus cleanses us and REMOVES US from sin. It does not state that our sin will be removed but we will be removed from sin! God will direct my steps and path away from all evil and snares. Not only that but He will keep me cleansed!

Press in and live honorable lives. There is so much that will open for you!
All of heaven is available to work on your behalf if you will just take responsibility. In the Garden of Eden, God gave man responsibility and man lost it. We were born for greater things than what we are experiencing now. Make the transition and Transform Your World!

IF SOMEBODY HAS FAITH

2 TIMOTHY 1:7 says that God did not give us a spirit of fear but love, power and a sound mind…….meaning we have received something from God.

What did God give you ? It’s a Spirit of Power, Love and Sound mind and not a Spirit of timidity (of cowardice, of craven and cringing and fawning fear). It’s all about a calm and well-balanced mind with discipline and self-control. This is what we have. It does not say that we will get it one day, it says we HAVE it !

I was not born to fear but to have faith and overcome. Fear will not control my mind because you have given us a Spirit of love and a sound mind. No room for fear !

In LUKE 7:36-48 an interesting scenario played off around a dining table !

Pharisee's and disciples were mingling with sinners and saints. Some were there on invitation, some were there on assignment, some were there not knowing why. Your life is an assignment ! You were assigned to change the world around you. Don’t allow fear, don’t allow uncertainty to control your thoughts. You have a balanced mind and purpose-filled life !

We were placed on the planet to interconnect with one another as purposes and destinies flow together. If we don't connect with one another nobody knows why you are here !

When we do connect and get together, could it possibly be that the Christ in our midst and present are there to forgive sins ! When was the last time you took the opportunity at a dining table to confront people and tell them “you MUST be born again”

It's NEVER just about the food at a table but what you were fed with, meaning heavenly sustenance ! Somebody with a need can penetrate a dinner with faith and have that need met !

Get a passion for people !

These are awesome times !

No more excuses why we can't and why we shouldn't !

Here am I Lord, use me !

SET THE PAST BEHIND YOU

In PSALM 51 we see David’s battle. Too many children of God still battle guilt and sin as

enemies however, they are actually defeated foes. The Law would not release him because

sacrifice and offerings keep bringing me back to the point of transgression!

According to 1 SAMUEL 15 the Law required sacrifices when a man sinned. The Law required the death and blood of an animal when a man sinned but the blood of animals could not do what the transgressor needed!

It could not remove it but merely covered it until his guilt devoured him later again and he had to bring another sacrifice!

In HEBREWS 10 the Law kept sins forever before them and can never perfect those who keep

on bringing sacrifices! If the worshiper was cleansed once for all then:

a) No guilt anymore;

b) No consciousness of sins.

But they continually bring sacrifices and their sacrifices could not take away sin!

When Jesus Christ entered the world He said I don’t bring sacrifices and offering but just give me a body! The Body of the Lord Jesus was broken ONCE FOR ALL meaning we have been made holy once for all through that final sacrifice!

Your sin has no right to be forever before you! The door of guilt-free and sin-free was opened!

HEBREWS 10:12-14 declares He has offered ONE offering and then He sat down, now waiting

till His enemies are made a stool beneath His feet !

1 CORINTHIANS 15 says last enemy to be conquered is death! Notice it says conquered and not given in to!

One sacrifice was brought ONCE for ALL!

We don't bring sacrifice of praise anymore - No more sacrifices!

We don't enter His gates with thanksgiving anymore - there are no more divisions to keep us out (HEBREWS 9)!

We don't enter His courts with praise anymore because the temple as we knew it has been destroyed and no more Outer Court, Holy place and Holy of Holies!

WE ARE IN HIM!

In Him, there’s no guilt;

In Him, there’s no sin;

In Him, there’s no disease nor weakness!

He Paid ONCE-FOR-ALL!

Accept Him and accept your FREEDOM!

FOXES THAT SPOIL

I believe we are in a season where we are facing some giants that challenge our authority and dominion. Too many times we allow the little things in our lives to spoil the miracles that God intended for us to have, especially in our marriages and general relationships!

In Matthew 8:20 we read that Foxes have holes and birds have nests and I asked a simple question…Why?
This opened a whole new perspective on this scripture because in the next phrase it states that the Son of Man has NO PLACE! We accommodate:
a) Foxes that create holes in our lives and marriage;
b) Birds that fly in and nest, using up space and clotting our lives.
We hardly accommodate the Son of Man! We make room for chaos and the worries and concerns we are so boldly told NOT to allow.

Why is it so easy to make room for everything else but when it comes to the things of God we are either too tired, too poor or something!

In Judges 15:4 Samson caught foxes and tied them tail to tail. Before we get that drastic we have to do a few things first!
We need to firstly Discern the foxes (those little things that cause havoc).
After that we need to tie it down (don’t allow it anymore room in your life). We must come to the point of taking stock of our relationships and decide to address what’s not beneficial or from God. We are making room for too many squatters in our relationships. Fear is squatting illegally. Doubt and unbelief is squatting illegally. Distrust and lies are illegal vagrants making room where they are not allowed to!

If we continue to allow them access and they become truly on fire, they set whole harvest fields alight and burns it to nothing! The harvest of miracles in your life is burnt to nothingness and emptiness.

Song of Solomon 2:15 says it’s the foxes that spoil the vineyards of marriage!
Protect your marriage; it’s the most precious relationship you’ve got. It reflects the relationship between God and the Church. No more messing around with the sacred trust of our spouses Enough is enough! Stop your extramarital affair….it may seem sweet today but tomorrow the bitter aftertaste of deceit and lies is the only remaining savor we taste!
Make a bold declaration and tell your spouse: I am prepared to deal with the foxes in our marriage! Confront those foxes and deal with them! No more room in my life!

CONSTANT CHANGE

There are many things in our lives that are constant but even more that demand change!
Change is also a constant progression from one thing to another or one level to another. Most of the time it's people that had true encounters with God that changed:
a) Abram into Abraham (Father of many nations) in Genesis 17:5
b) Sarai into Sarah (Princess) in Genesis 17:15
c) Jacob (Supplanter) into Israel (Contender with God) in Genesis
32:28
d) Ben-oni (Son of my sorrow) into Benjamin (Son of my Right hand) in
Genesis 35:18
e) Simon (Shaking) into Peter (Rock) in John 1:42
The moment that their names changed:
a) Their nature's changed;
b) Their destinies changed;
c) Their authority with God changed;
d) What they weren't, they became!

ISAIAH 62:2-3 declares that God is about to change some things in our lives.
I believe it's time for this ministry and everybody in the body of Christ to step up to the challenge; To expect hat the nations shall open up and see what God can do; To be called by a new name so we can display the glory and honor of God !

We all are familiar with ROMANS 12:2 that say we must be transformed by the renewing of our minds. Total change takes place by the entire renewal of your mind and not just some of its thoughts! Change is setting new ideals and new attitudes into motion ! Change unlocks new possibilities and destinies ! Change is the proof itself or the testimony that testifies that something changed !

When Jesus performed the miracle in Cana of Galilee at the wedding, the first manifestation of the miraculous was about change! Nobody got healed, nobody was raised from the dead. I would think the first miracle would be an opening statement that would set the tone for future miracles ! It's amazing to see that Jesus opened His miracle innings with a statement concerning change when HE turned water into wine !
I believe it was a statement where the best was kept back until now ! Thank you for the water, but I believe we are in the changing into wine process! We may have started out as water but we are about to change into wine !

Having said all of the above, I have an announcement to make. We have changed our "NAME"
Yes, you heard right. We were Miracle Revival Centre but I believe that we are entering a new era where we have to transcend into the next phase or this ministry! We await the powerful decrees of people over this ministry, every time they call out our new name !
"Transforming Your World Ministries" It is time to be named by a new name and because 1 CORINTHIANS 15:51 lays so dear to my heart, I have adopted it as a decree from God that ALL SHALL BE CHANGED or TRANSFORMED. It's also a summary of the First Prophetic Word I ever received !
We shall ALL be changed Practically, Purposefully and Prophetically !

I pray that we all are ready for God to change things in our lives ! I'm just bold enough to move out and take God at His Word on a practical level. Step out in Faith and embrace change!

I believe this is the time of reward ! It's the time where all your efforts pay off.

In Esther 6:2-3 Mordecai did an awesome thing by saving the king from an assassination attempt and yet it seemed that his honor went unnoticed !
What was his reward ?.....NOTHING !
It may feel that your honorable deeds go unnoticed and unrewarded !

I have great news ! God is about to turn the process around. Somewhere, somehow there is a divine appointment assigned for you and someone's nightmare is your dream breakthrough !

There is a night appointed where someone can't sleep UNTIL.....
Your name is coming up for reward !
Somebody is about to remember !

You will be elevated and lifted up and everybody shall see publically what God had in mind when He decided to bless you ! It's not over, just the beginning !

Take heart and rise up. It is your time for reward. The appointment with the king might seem to have been forgotten but there IS an appointment assigned !

2009 the year of the Divine !

1 SAMUEL 9 We read about Saul who was a man that stood out in attractiveness and stature. This could represent your life or even your business. It's time to arise and stand out ! Saul was looking for his father's beasts of burden. In our normal day to day tasks we sometime miss the significance of our presence. We belittle what we are busy with ! God had a divine appointment planned for Saul ! The same with us. God has this awesome, divine appointment planned as we set out about our normal day to day tasks.

Important to remember is that someone's problem or nightmare might just be the divine dream or breakthrough you were looking for !

Saul replied to his servant that he doesn't know where to look anymore. When you are at that point, look out for divine appointments and connections because at that moment Saul stepped into the meeting with Samuel and it changed his life forever !

Suddenly the divine word spoken over him was about to be fulfilled ! Samuel utters these words to Saul, saying whatever the season demands you to do, do it !
One qualification: We must realize that God is with us !
As Saul turned to do it, God turned him into another man !
It's the year where your life will change so muc that you will be turned into another man/woman.

Probably one of the greatest keys for 2009 is the change of heart ! The moment Saul's heart changed, the signs came to pass in one day !
Divine intervention !
Divine appointment !
Divine favor !

2009 the year of the Divine !

2009 WILL BE DIVINE

What a Year of challenges 2008 has been. Still it seems to continue !
Thomas Edison said that he had never known a day of failure in his life !
After having tried 2000 times with the light bulb, he said he found 1999 ways that it
didn't work !

In GENESIS 40:13-15 Joseph interpreted the dream of the butler and baker. He specifically requested that they must not forget about him.
Could it be that:
a) We feel left out this year ?
b) We feel everybody else is elevated but we are stuck ?
c) We have done nothing to deserve this !
I'm here to tell you that there is a word in the heavens over your life that rings out
"RESTORATION"

Your time is coming !
Someone’s nightmare was designed to be your dream break-through ! The word says
that two full years before Joseph stepped into the palace he was assigned to step into
someone’s dream !
You have already met the one's that would change your destiny, they just kind of
forgot about you !
Prepare yourself, it's time for your miracle appointment !

We hear in part and when it doesn't work out we want to turn our back and run but we have not heard it all !
Prophesy unfolds the mystery little by little ! There is always opposition and assault
on the prophetic and purpose ! Would the enemy not like to try oppose and defeat the
prophetic word over your life ?

I believe God placed us in 2008 so we could manifest in 2009. God set us up for
greatness !
God is about to release us from the dungeon to the palace !
Just hang in there !
2009 will be divine !

PULL YOURSELF TOGETHER

Giraffe are complex creatures. It could be a very healthy specimen, tranquilized or lightly sedated to be transported. If it made up it's mind, it's enough. It dies suddenly because of choice.
Life is like a puzzle, that unless we come together it remains incomplete.

Amos 3 says it's impossible to arrive at the same place if walk in different directions. It's impossible to come to the same understanding if we have contrary thoughts and motives. Gather yourself up from your distraction and agree with yourself that this year you will have the breakthrough. Can't move forward and backward at the same time. Something has to come together and it's your thoughts. Gather yourself.

A wavering mind will produce contrary speech. In that state it's impossible to receive from the Lord ANYTHING ! That man finds himself unstable, unreliable and uncertain about everything.
Gather yourself.

Too many of God's people are aiming high and planning low. We trust that supernatural things will happen to us but we make carnal plans. When climbing a mountain we reach for the top but wonder how far it's down ! Every step, move and climb is about reaching the top, nothing else !

ISAIAH 52 says shake yourself loose from the dust. Gather yourself and get your mind on what you're doing.

Arise and loose yourself !

IT'S YOUR TIME

Many people have said that timing is everything and I believe it's so !
I therefore want to speak a word over you that says the best is yet to come !
Galatians 6 says that if I will not loose heart, grow weary or relax my courage all things will come !

I John 7:6 the word decrees that it's our time. In fact anytime is our time. It was so from the beginning. If we read Hebrews 9:11 it says the appointed time came. I believe we have to tap into this miracle moment and do what we have never done before. It's our time, the suitable time for you ! Your opportunity is ready any time !

We need to speak life over our valley of dry bones. It's the time for them to arise out of the dead and become alive. Maybe you are faced with such a devastating situation. I want to encourage you to call the breath and life back into that area ! Speak to the bones or husband or finances !Prophecy breath and spirit to enter it and it shall live !

A thing to note is that God performed after the prophet spoke or prophesied over those bones. God put flesh on them, God covered it with sinews, God caused a rumbling noise for them to come together. The prophet had to prophesy again before life entered !
Don't stop prophesying until LIFE manifests !
The impossible is possible !

It is YOUR time and it's the right time !
Speak it into being !

SONS OF LIGHT

There is something about the way the people of God do things. It's just a higher way of living.
In 1 JOHN 1 we read that God is Light and wherever God is, darkness bows. Darkness doesn't leave after ten minutes of light or three sessions of light. Darkness leaves immediately when light comes on the scene !

We as children of the Light was called out of darkness into His marvelous Light by being purchased by the blood of Christ. We now belong to another meaning, we must now set forth the deeds of Him Whom we belong to ! We must show forth the perfections of Him that is perfect.
Matthew 5:48 "Be perfect as your Father which is in heaven is perfect" How can we be that...because we were called OUT OF DARKNESS into His marvelous LIGHT !

EPHESIANS 5:8 says you are not darkness anymore but Light. It may grow dark in he world but you don't fear because you are light ! It does not say you have light but are Light !
If you had light somebody could come and take it but if you are light......nobody can take that from you !
We have now got to walk out light and wherever we go the darkness gets exposed ! We don't hide because we saw darkness, NO ! Darkness flees because it saw us !

1 THESSALONIANS 5:5 says that not only are we sons of LIGHT but also sons of LIFE. In Him was LIFE and the LIFE was the LIGHT of men. Now we are sons of the LIGHT meaning we must then be sons of LIFE ! The only way the Light in you is recognized is by what you do with it in darkness !

Walk as sons of Light and Life as HE is......so are we IN THIS WORLD !
Be His ambassador !

THERE IS A LIFTING UP !
Low things happen to High people. High people don’t aim for low things but low things have a manner of just happening ! God was so proud of Job that He called Him the most righteous person but one morning Job woke up like every other and had no clue as to what the day would hold !
In just a few moments he lost all his oxen and donkeys; Lightning killed all the sheep; Lost all his Camels; House fell inn on all his sons and daughters and killed them but amid all these calamities there is a lifting up ! There is life after a bringing low and God is about to lift you up !
God didn't leave him in that state !
You weren't born to stay down but to get up. You weren't born to die in difficulty but rule in victory !
There is a lifting up this day !

Psalm 40 says we were low once but He drew us up out of the pit and out of the clay and slime.
We are now set upon a rock with steady steps and established goings.
There is a lifting up !

Are you storm driven or are you steering ?

The disciples on the boat find themselves suddenly in a storm. Their boat is being tossed around, driven by the wind and filling up with water. The amazing thing is that Jesus was asleep onboard. Truth be told, storms come suddenly. In James 3 we are again reminded to

God Working Behind The Scene

noreply@blogger.com (Transforming Your World) — Tue, 21 Aug 2007 07:30:00 +0000

In Luke 5 Jesus wanted to preach to the crowd from Simon Peter's boat. Simon had no idea that he was about to catch the greatest break in his life. If you consider the fact that a boat was not designed to be used as platform but God had a different thing planned. Your business can be your platform. Next moment God said to Simon Peter cast your nets out again. The reply was that they caught NOTHING all night (the time for fishing). Now it's daytime and we must go for a catch? When Simon Peter said yes to Jesus preaching from his boat, he never had a clue as to what that would produce that day !
Will you do it again ?

We get so frustrated with our circumstance that we plan to give up but the call today is, will you do it again ? We have no idea what God can produce in a moment. God had this catch planned before He ever entered Simon Peter's boat. God was working behind the scene from the beginning, even in your life. Something miraculous is about to be manifested in your life which God has planned before eternity began. Happy hunting !

Every Good, Perfect; Free, Large and Full gift comes from above. If we can just realise that we are a gift to the Body of Christ. Now God so loved the world that He sent His best gift and in this gift was Life and Light. He came into the world but the world did not recognize Him. The tragedy of our day is that the church lost the ability to recognize the gift of God in people.

Jesus speaks to a woman at a well and says "If you only knew the gift that is before you"
We know nothing about drawing from the gift of God in people! The church has an inability to draw out living water from the source because we are stuck at the well. We are unable to go beyond methodology and tap into revelation because we keep looking outward instead of inward ! The greatest confrontation of the Church lies in it's past and present and they can't seem to define their future. For the woman at the well, her past was too prominent because of her five mistakes and yet she is presently busy making another one !

If you loose your appreciation for the gift, the gift loses it's ability to touch you !
It was John the Baptist that said "behold the Lamb of God Who takes away the sin of the world" and they took offence instead of discerning the gift. This was the Son of God "Emmanuel" and could do no miracles in His home town because they could not discern the gift!

It is such a tragedy to shower the Church with gift heaped upon gift if the church has never been taught to Discern the gift; Respect the gift; Honor the gift; Appreciate the gift.

If this doesn't happen at home, it won't happen in Church !
You are a gift to the body of Christ, discern the gift in those around you.

We are currently busy with an awesome series on Honor. We must all show it as much as we need it ! Honor must be shown as much as received. I believe the element of honor is missing from the top of our nation to the man on the street. We have no regard for any institution, person or even entity, It's time that God restores Honor among His people for one another. One of the greatest ways to show Honor is to discern the gift in those among us. Discern the gift in your children and family members. Discern the gift in your neighbour and those around you. The moment you respect and discern their gift, Honor will flow automatically. We have preached on Honor for more than two months already. You must get hold of some of these sessions by purchasing it on dvd or cd. Get it, it will Transform Your World !
