Because He Lives
“Roll the stone aside,” Jesus told them. But Martha, the dead man’s sister, protested, “Lord, he has been dead for four days. The smell will be terrible.” John 11:39
Lazarus was not only sick, he died. He did not only die, he was buried and he had started decaying. In other words, bacteria and fungi had begun to feast on him, releasing ammonia or whatever waste product they release that causes the stench of a dead body. By now the irreversible appears to have happened. By now Jesus, it is impossible for You to do anything. Because Lazarus came back to life, everything that represents Lazarus in your life will come back to life. Because Jesus is alive, it will come back to life. I beseech you [using Paul’s terminology], do not take this season Read the rest of this entry
With God
“Then he said to me, “Speak a prophetic message to these bones and say, ‘Dry bones, listen to the word of the Lord!” Eze.37:4
To go from death to life, you must realize that to go from desire to result, you need prophetic action. You have been getting prophetic messages into your dry bone situations already. There are two things when it comes to prophetic messages. The first thing you and I must know is that prophetic messages are instructed. The Bible says Jesus has made us kings and priests unto God. God’s prophetic instruction to you is, “…say, ‘Dry bones, listen to the word of the Lord!” Read the rest of this entry
Principle Of Honor
“You must present one-tenth of the tithe received from the Israelites as a sacred offering to the Lord. This is the Lord’s sacred portion, and you must present it to Aaron the priest” Num.18:28 [emphasis added]
At one of our vigils, worship was really intense and beautiful, and I felt the Lord say that people owe Him tithe and He wanted to forgive them. I have never heard that before. We were taught that if you owe God tithe, you will pay back with twenty-five percent interest. Have you heard that before? But the Holy Spirit said He wants to wipe it off. Holy Spirit can mess up your theology. He is God and He reserves the right to do as He pleases.
Persistent Faith
“I tell you, He will defend and protest and avenge them speedily. However, when the Son of Man comes, will He find [persistence in] faith on the earth?” Luke 18:8 [AMP]
Even if you die believing, die believing. Believe God! “Then the Lord said, “Learn a lesson from this unjust judge. Even he rendered a just decision in the end. So don’t you think God will surely give justice to his chosen people who cry to him day and night? Will he keep putting them off? I tell you, he will grant justice to them quickly! But when the Son of Man returns, how many will he find on the earth who have faith?” Luke 18:6-8. The problem with us is that we give up so easily in our hearts. Believe me it is a problem. Jesus says, “But how much of that kind of Read the rest of this entry
Believe God
“Then Jesus said to the disciples, “Have faith in God… I tell you, you can pray for anything, and if you believe that you’ve received it, it will be yours” Mark 11:22 & 24 [emphasis added].
Desire always precedes result. If you read the book of Ezekiel, you will see that Ezekiel was a man that was loaded with a burden for the nation of Israel. For you to go from death to life, desire always precedes results. You must have a burden; a burning desire must be in your heart. Some of us have lost the desire for healing. You do not even have the burning desire to see yourself healed. Some of us have lost the desire to see our loved ones get saved. We used to Read the rest of this entry
No Excuse
“For ever since the world was created, people have seen the earth and sky. Through everything God made, they can clearly see his invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature. So they have no excuse for not knowing God” Rom.1:20 [emphasis added].
You have no excuse for not knowing God. The way God has set things up is that we are without excuse. Particularly if you are in God’s Favourite House where everything is aimed at showing you Jesus. Beginning from the New Creation Reality classes, to the Journey classes, then Life groups, and by God’s grace powerful messages and anointed worship. Have you done the Journey? What is your excuse? Do you think you will stand before God and give an excuse? It will not work! Face it; you are as close to God as you want to be.
Confront It!
“The Lord took hold of me, and I was carried away by the Spirit of the Lord to a valley filled with bones” Eze.37:1
Please read Ezekiel 37:1-14. God needed to work with Ezekiel to change the dry bones situation. God needs to work with you to change whatever situation you are facing. Whatever you forbid on earth, whatever you disallow on earth, will be bound, forbidden, disallowed in heaven. Whatever you permit, whatever you allow on earth will be allowed in heaven [Matthew 16:19 paraphrased]. God was saying to Ezekiel that you cannot have transformation if you are Read the rest of this entry
Why Pray?
“And I will give you the keys of the Kingdom of Heaven. Whatever you forbid on earth will be forbidden in heaven, and whatever you permit on earth will be permitted in heaven” Matt.16:19
I pray that everything that is dying in your life and ought to be alive, will be resurrected and Jesus alone will be glorified. Please read Ezekiel 37:1-14. Ezekiel had a very dramatic prophetic experience. God took him to the valley of dry bones. God was trying to pass a message to Ezekiel that these people are going to move from death to life. However, this situation was not like any other. These people had died, the flesh dried from the bones, and all that was left were the bones. Take note that the bones were not arranged, they were scattered and the Bible describes Read the rest of this entry
Learn To Obey III
“Naaman’s servants came near and said to him, “My father, if the prophet had told you to do some great thing, wouldn’t you have done it? Doesn’t it make more sense just to do it? After all, he only told you, ‘Wash, and you will be clean’” 2 Kings 5:13 [NCV]
There are people that God has put in your life to speak into your life so you can become stronger. “Elisha sent Naaman a messenger who said, “Go and wash in the Jordan River seven times. Then your skin will be healed, and you will be clean.” Naaman became angry and left. He said, “I thought Elisha would surely come out and stand before me and call on the name of the Lord his God. I thought he would wave his hand over the place and heal the disease” 2 Kings 5:10-11 [NCV]. When you take instructions, you are doing yourself a favor. You are the one that will become stronger.
