Blessings to you beloved of the Lord,
Do you still remember that 'golden oldie' some of us used to sing growing up - "Jesus loves me this I know - for the Bible tells me so; little ones to Him belongs, they are weak but He is strong..." Well this song dropped in my spirit as I was sitting meditating on this wonderful Love the Father has for us. It then reminded me once again just how God is so long on GRACE and short on religion.
So then dear bretheren, how about as 'fishers of men' (Matt 4:19) we bait the hook with that love of Jesus and of God's kingdom. As we catch them, God cleans them by His spirit. How about if me and you we live out this love; go tell about His love where ever we go. I truly believe that as we do this, He the God of love, will be there, He'll lead us there, where He's prepared.
Let us keep the Love of our Saviour with us in this 'our missionary journey' of witnessing about the Gospel of truth, then Heaven's gate God will open wide to welcome His little children in.
This I pray:
"Lord, I know there are people all around us needing to hear of Your Love, that message of Hope and truth _ people whom we might not even notice but whom You love deeply and wants to show Yourself merciful to thiem. Clothe us Lord with Your love as You reveal this marvelous love before the world and lead us Lord to them, equipping us with words to speak that are from You to them in the wisdom of Christ. I pray for men and women who need your word, that their hearts will be open to receive most of all from You the unfailing Love of the Saviour Jesus Christ. Amen"
[The Gaither Vocal Band has a song that sings 'If coal can turn to diamonds, and sand can turn to pearls, if a worm can turn into a butterfly, then LOVE can turn world.' Isn't that true of our Saviour's love!]

MY STRENGTH AND VICTORY IN JESUS
My Father I glory in your very own presence in me - your spirit of life and refreshing.
Thank you Lord that just like the Apostle Paul, I too can say I rejoice in my weakness, knowing that when I am weak, you my Lord are strong. And I know that I can do all things in Christ who strengthens me.
Thank you Father for the work you are doing in my life. You are moulding me in character into a life of Christlikeness. I would say of the Lord 'You are my strength, my shield, my shelter, deliverer, strong tower and my very present help in time of need.'
I worship you Lord for who you are and the work you did for me on the cross. Your blood covers me and I am restored. Through the power of resurrection so have I found victory in You.
I magnify your name Jesus for you have made me glad. Father you prepare a table for me in the presence of my enemies, my cup is overflowing with your love, grace, mercy and favour. I delight in your precepts my God, your word is true - You Lord are faithful and never changes. Your love endureth forever and therefore I REJOICE ALWAYS AND FOREVER IN YOU, because NOTHING can separate us from the LOVE YOU HAVE FOR US.
In Jesus name I pray, AMEN

Faith that never let go!
When faith becomes operational - prayer and confession get effectual. These are the words found in James 5:15 and Mark 11:22-23. Be persistent therefore in your prayer, have faith in God.
With holy anger towards the oppression now in your life; (that which holds back manifestation of the blessing of God), exercise your authority in Jesus Name over the situation. Glorify the Father for the victory over poverty/lack, sickness/disease, or whatever else the enemy has stolen from you and may you see the peace & abundance of God manifest even in the physical realm as you continue to sing, praise & make melody in thanksgiving to Him & bring Him glory amongst the people.
Rejoice therefore in the Lord because it is Jesus who did it all for us on calvary and brought to us the power of salvation when God raised Him up from the dead. His Spirit, the Holy one lives inside of us to direct, counsel & comfort. His eyes are upon you and me, interceding for us by the right hand side of the Father whose love for us reign Supreme.
Hold steadfast to your faith, and have your heart fixed & confident of this: That we will see the Lord's goodness in the land of the living!

Luke 10 v 19
Ephesians 1 v 11-14 & 18-19

Healing is your portion - My prayer for you
For God's power is the light that will radiate onto your body to perfect it. May that healing power that came through the blood of Christ, the annointed one in His annointing, flow through your veins this day, touching and cleansing every cell, organ and limb - re-uniting your every thought to the promises of God's word.
It is by faith that we believe and in righteousness that we are healed and restored. May you see Jesus manifest His entire being on you today even more than ever before. The Almighty God is for you & nothing can ever stand in the way of the blessing that He bestowed upon you. Believe and declare it, exercise forgiveness by faith because He,the Lord, waits to show favour upon you and your whole household.
Kneel before Jesus, be focused on His presence and allow the Holy Spirit to guide, comfort and counsel. Receive the joy in Him now & rejoice for you have seen the light come.
I love you, and forever Jesus loves you more. Be blessed.
Amen!

This is The Call
"It is written, Man does not live on bread alone but on every word that come from the mouth of God."
"Therefore, go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teach them to obey everything I have commanded you, and surely I am with you always to the end of the age."
Dear friend, the Lord, He who changes not, our Rock, has a great plan for you and me - and this is His call to those who are His chosen to go in deeper - preach His word, for He,the Mighty One, is expecting a harvest in return as a result of our obedience to the call.
As we go deeper into God, may we become more real of our life and the vulnerability of our being so we can understand that there is nothing we can do without Him, let us be mindful that He is our Source, our dependency is on Him and let us seek for ourselves a deeper longing of His being in our lives.
[O God, as you call us to go deeper in our knowledge of You, may the cry of our heart be that You Lord, you alone saturate our hearts in your Spirit, purify us as your Glory is manifest in our life and in our worship of You.
Incline therefore your ear to the Word of the Lord, O my soul. Take it, the Word, and eat it, and may it be to thy mouth as sweet as honey. Prophesy and speak therefore the Word of God to all people and nations, in all languanges and to the kings.
In Jesus Name, Amen.]

The Lord God is ...
I thought I would share this revelation message with you about our GOD.
I recently received a mail titled – “God is like…”, in which God is compared to all kinds of brands and slogans etc. They were all quite true, but it didn’t really feel like any of them did justice to what the Bible teaches us… Psalm 29 says we must ascribe what is due to God, and then starts explaining why:
Psalm 29 - A psalm of David.
PS 29:1 Ascribe to the LORD, O mighty ones, ascribe to the LORD glory and strength. 2 Ascribe to the LORD the glory due his name; worship the LORD in the splendor of his holiness.
PS 29:3 The voice of the LORD is over the waters; the God of glory thunders, the LORD thunders over the mighty waters. 4 The voice of the LORD is powerful; the voice of the LORD is majestic.
Psalm 97 also tells us more about “what God is like”:
PS 97:2 Clouds and thick darkness surround him; righteousness and justice are the foundation of his throne. 3 Fire goes before him and consumes his foes on every side.
PS 97:4 His lightning lights up the world; the earth sees and trembles. 5 The mountains melt like wax before the LORD, before the Lord of all the earth.
Imagine seeing that happen… Can be quite fearful, but listen to what God says about Himself:
EX 34:6 And he passed in front of Moses, proclaiming, "The LORD, the LORD, the compassionate and gracious God, slow to anger, abounding in love and faithfulness, 7 maintaining love to thousands, and forgiving wickedness, rebellion and sin. Yet he does not leave the guilty unpunished;..."
May you know what God is really like this week!
God bless and keep you!
NB!! Please excuse me should you feel that I should not have forwarded this message through to you, but I just could not resist the inclination.

The Heart of the Father - Our Secret Place
Lay down all, my dear friend & brethren, lay it all at the Cross. You want to lay down all and take up that rest upon the Saviour's breast - there and there only is always a place of freedom, perfect peace and complete safety - the Heart of the Father which is our secret place.
I love you but Jesus loves you best, so I bid you a successful, good and prosperous life in Him. May the waking up and the sleep of the righteous be sweet. May the truth and faithfulness of God be our shield and a buckler because we believe and trust in His Son, who is our Lord.
The Lord Jesus Christ, through the indwelling of the Holy Spirit, HE ALONE is able to keep you from falling and present you blameless before the presence of His Glory with exceeding joy and exultation, unspeakable ecstatic delight.
May you celebrate a good life in Jesus, Amen.
Scripture reference: Psalm 91, Isaiah 25: 4, Jude 24 and Proverbs 2:8
