An Expectation of the Miraculous

The things which are impossible with men are possible with God. Luke 18:27

When my husband and I were anticipating the arrival of our granddaughter Isabella, we received a word that this would be the SEASON of MANIFESTATION... 

My spirit was stirred to believe God for the Supernatural... to live each day with expectation of the miraculous.  My heart is challenged. I wonder if we (the Body of Christ) are walking with an earnest expectation of the miraculous. Are we truly expecting to see the goodness of God manifested (birthed) on earth, or are we just hoping that it will be? Hope in god is good, but the Lord wants to turn our hope into a living, breathing expectation. God is calling us to supernatural living and it begins with an expectation of the miraculous. 

I'll be honest, I'm not always walking pregnant, so to speak, with this kind of expectation. More than once I have minimized the words of Jesus when He said, "He who believes in Me the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do, because I go to My Father" John 14:12 

The enemy is always trying to discourage us and cause us to lose sight of who we are in Christ and all that comes along with our birthright. We are governed by the natural (what the news says, what the doctor says, etc.) yet we are children of a supernatural God who asked us to pray that things would be on earth just as they are in Heaven.

Mary was pregnant with the expectation of God's kingdom being manifested on earth. Her hope in God brought her to this level of expectation, "Let it be to me according to Your word" Luke 1:38. 
She took God at His word and the Holy Spirit overshadowed her. Something supernatural happens when we allow God to overshadow us.

The time has come for the manifestation of every prophecy to be fulfilled. Ezekiel 12:23, 25, 28 says For I am the Lord. I speak and will come to pass. It will no more be postponed... None of My words shall be delayed any more, but the word which I speak will be done, says the Lord God. 

So do not weary in doing good. Continue to stand on the Word, believe in God's promises, and trust His faithfulness. Continue to pray, decree, and declare. Continue to persevere and endure until you see the Breakthrough. Continue to choose hope over despair, faith over fear, and truth over facts. 

So I say to you again: Do not weary in doing good. Not a moment has been wasted. Keep believing. 

Have you been given a big promise from God? Perhaps a prophetic word regarding your calling or destiny? Perhaps it's the promise of divine health? Or perhaps the salvation of a family member? Whatever it is, know this. If God spoke it, it's true and it will come to pass. Period. If it hasn't happened yet, that doesn't mean God has forgotten you, or that the devil is winning. God is with you. Just like He was with Abraham, Jacob, Joseph, Moses, David, Peter and all the other heroes of FAITH that the Lord did great works with. 

Keep praying. Keep praising. And keep expecting. There is nothing the enemy would like better than for you to give up. Don't...  It's the Year of Manifestation... The fulfillment of your promise is right around the corner. God spoke it and it will come to pass. I truly believe that the time is much closer than you suspect. 

The Word of God will not return to Him void but it will accomplish what He sent them out to do. 

You too can take God at His Word. Every promise, every utterance from God is yours. Though it tarries don't give up. Be expecting.... 

Be encouraged....

He SINGS Over Me...

Last night after spending some time in prayer I fell asleep listening to a beautiful worship song by Kari Jobe called The More I Seek You... I remember whispering Lord I need to hear from you.  I had a dream I saw beautiful colorful gemstones falling from heaven and covering my bed. As I watched them come down I heard scriptures and lyrics of songs. God's peace was overwhelming. I remember hearing scriptures from Song of Solomon I felt such an outpouring of His love. As I woke up I heard these words... 
He sings over me.  

Thru out the day I pondered on the dream and the words "He sings over me"... I thought it sounded familiar, perhaps the lyrics of a song but I was surprised n overwhelmed when I found the scripture of Zephaniah 3:17 
The Lord your God is with you, the Mighty Warrior who saves. He will take great delight in you; in His love he will no longer rebuke you, but will rejoice over you with singing.... 

I love every part of this verse, such a comforting promise - God WILL do these things. Not based on what I do or don't do - He DOES them regardless. God takes such pleasure in me that He sings for me. Wow, who am I that the God of the UNIVERSE would SING OVER ME??? It blows my mind! 
A different version says that, "He will exult (leap for joy, be extremely joyful) over you with loud singing." It's so easy to try and find our worth in things and through people... When I think about God delighting in me, I'm humbled to think I don't deserve it, yet He loves me that much! 

He will quiet you with His love. He will rejoice over you with singing. Such love and tenderness of God.  As I think of my grand daughter Isabella rocking her in my arms when she's crying, I've tried to comfort her with a song, kisses, and lullabies. She stops crying long enough to listen to my singing, snuggling her, and loving on her. That's the image I see in this verse. God will quiet us with His love. When life is screaming out of control, we just have to listen strong enough forHim to sing over us "Hush little baby, don't you cry, Daddy's gonna sing you a lullaby." I just never pictured God singing to me. The thought of this great and mighty warrior combined with the tenderness of singing amazes me.

I feel like God has shown me a golden nugget of truth that I didn't realize before. I see in greater depth how God is my Daddy. Sometimes I am screaming too loud to hear Him next to me, soothing me, singing over me. My prayer is that I will delight in Him so He will delight even more in me. I am praying that I will be quiet enough to listen to His lullabies and smile back at Him with the same love He has been smiling at me... 

And like the lyrics of the song by Kari Jobe says... This LOVE is so deep, its more than I can stand. I MELT in His PEACE, it's overwhelming... 

Be blessed

My Night Watches With The Lord

During 2011 I asked the Lord to put an alarm in my spirit during the night watches, I made myself available to wait upon the Lord. I prayed according to Psalm 110:3 offering myself willingly out of the womb of the morning (which I understood was an indication of open heavens) and Psalm 139:9 in the wings of the morning to pray wait and seek His face. 


I claimed the promises of Isaiah 50-4-5 that He would awaken me morning by morning, awaken my spiritual senses to learn, anointing my tongue to speak and my ear to hear. I would keep a journal by my bed to write dreams / visions or impressions He would reveal during that time. There was times I was awake for 5 minutes or even an hour.  At times, I feel very little of Him, or of His presence.  But I understood He wanted to communicate with me. I'm training myself to wait in "anticipation" as one who watches for someone to enter a room and the results have been the most incredible moments with the Lord.  


Proverbs 8:17 says, I love them that love Me; and those that seek Me early shall find Me... That I may cause those that love Me to inherit substance; and I will fill their treasures. 


A quote from the book (God Catchers) that has meant a lot to me is "I am no longer content just to "chase"Him. I want to catch" Him - Sometimes I grow weary with the daily chase, but I must chase If I want to catch Him. 


He is beginning to dominate my thoughts and my hunger for more of His presence. I can't help myself - He is all I want.  I'm part of that remnant, a chronic God Chaser with an unending appetite for more of His Presence. 


God yearns to know you intimately... To reveal Himself to you in a more personal way, a place in prayer where our perception is more in-tune to the realm of the spirit than in the natural.  


If you listen, God will speak to you! Psalm 16:7 says I will bless the Lord who has given me counsel; my heart also instructs me in the night seasons. God will meet you where you are and work with you. Seek the Lord for special times that are set apart for receiving from Him. SACRIFICE releases POWER. Ask Him to prepare you for heavenly downloads. 


Isaiah wrote, "In repentance and rest you will be saved, in quietness and trust is your strength." Your ability to rest is critical for your ability to receive. REST is the INCUBATION bed of REVELATION! Taking time and developing the capacity to quiet your soul and rest in the Lord, waiting silently before Him. 


Be faithful with the little, and God will give you more. God is looking for people to whom He can entrust His revelation. He may test us with a little to see what we do with it (this has been my personal experience) God rewards FAITHFULNESS! 

I find myself echoing the Lord as He asks the Church this question, "Will you come up higher?" The Lord is calling the church to rise up in this hour, beyond the familiar out of our comfort zone and seek for more of Him.  


This has been my life and my personal experience. As a dreamer, an intercessor and prayer warrior I long to hear His voice clearly, to anticipate His next move and be aware of the enemy's attack. As a Watchmen... 


I declare that you will begin to have supernatural experiences with the Lord. Expect to have dreams and visions and have divine revelations from the Lord. I declare your spiritual eyes and ears are open to receive. 


He will make Himself known to you. 


Be Blessed...

Praising Your Way Out Of A STORM...

It has been my personal experience (and proven biblically) that when you get down in the dumps or feeling down n out the best remedy for that situation is always PRAISE and THANKSGIVING.

God understands our troubles and cares about each of our needs as if we were the only one on earth with a problem. He also knows how miserable it can be for us when we wallow in despair. However, He has given us the perfect way out of the prison of trouble; it's the key that unlocks the door of loneliness, frustration and self-pity. It's called PRAISE...

In the natural it goes against our human nature, however some of the greatest miracles and blessings have been born out of this simple yet effective tool we have been given.

We have the sample of the life of David who seemed to be a magnet for trouble yet produced most of the book of Psalms - songs of praise and worship. God labeled David as a man after His own heart. Paul and Silas were in prison for doing good and preaching the word of God. If anyone had the right to feel sorry for themselves it was them. But instead decided to pray and sing praises. And we all know the results of their act of praise.

When I was going thru my recent storm (with the health issues) there was a song that ministered to me during that season by Casting Crown - I'll praise you in this storm.... When I felt at my lowest point and began to praise it was a feeling that goes beyond words. I felt like I could almost feel the very heartbeat of God. Some of my most wonderful experiences with the Lord has come when I've been in deepest trial. I feel so near to God when I praise Him in spite of my circumstances. 

The Bible says that God inhabits the praises of his people. Praising in the midst of trial shows faith and restores your soul. When we praise God we are proving to Him that we believe that He will take care of us. It also gets our focus off of the problem and makes us excited about what God is going to do in our life. When I begin to praise I feel like I can run through a troop or leap over a wall just like the Psalmist. Our situation may or may not change - but in praise we are trusting God that he know the truth about the things we cannot see or understand. Just like a child must trust a parent for things, we must learn to understand that God knows what is best and no matter how bad or how painful the situation He will work it for our good.

So I challenge you, touch the heart of God with your praise and love Him in the midst of your trouble ~ it's amazing what praising will do!

My journey of FAITH in 2011

My most memorable experience in 2011 was my journey of Faith. To know and experience God's  goodness in a personal physical way. We all go thru experiences in our lives where our faith and inner convictions will be tested at a greater degree than ever before. Solid in my faith in God and in His Word I received a negative report that challenged by faith and the confession of my mouth. Not understanding the journey ahead God was working behind the scenes in my favor. I discovered a lump growing rapidly in my breast, not having medical insurance God opened doors in my favor with the best medical treatment. After many test and different medical opinions the final result was to have a Lumpectomy. I was told by the best surgeon in that field (in the state) that I had 1% chances of saving my breast. I battled for 3 wks to maintain my position of faith declaring a supernatural intervention from God. Everything in me was battling the negative report - at that point I called out for reinforcement and support from my church family. They ministered faith and word 24/7 thru prayer/fasting and scriptures reminding me of the promises of God. When the day of surgery came I had absolute peace that God was in control of all things. I saw the hand of God from day one and thru out my recovering.  God provided 100% medical assistance - had the best surgeon in the state - by God's grace was able to save part of my breast - recovering was supernatural and the love that surrounded me was priceless.

God allowed me to go thru the process to proof Himself faithful. I have been strengthened and reinforced with power in my inner self by the Holy Spirit Himself who dwells in me. My strength and my refuge, as I confidently trusted in Him and in His Word. Believing and declaring daily the strength to walk in divine health. My daily confession has been as I part-take of daily communion every morning is - as He is in Heaven, so am I here on earth ~ HEALED / COMPLETE AND WHOLE.

I am eternally grateful for the prayers and support I received during this difficult season of my life. I could't have gone thru this without everyones support.

I pray that my experience and testimony would be used by Him to help strengthen your trust in God to get you through whatever difficult situation you might be facing now, or one day in the future. God is much more interested in honoring our trust in Him than what a legion of demons of doubt want us believing when we're going through a trail.

Fear of failure broken !!

"For you have not been created for failure," says the Lord.  "Even this day, the fear of failure would try to tell you a lie and that you will never succeed.  Rise up now and break the fear and that voice of failure in your life!"

 Prophetic Scripture:
Joshua 1:8 - This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein:  for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.

The fear of failure is one of the greatest obstacles that people have to overcome.  Most often we fear failure because of a previous negative experience, when something didn't work out the way we planned.  Maybe it was a prayer that we prayed and we didn't receive the answer we wanted.  Perhaps, it was a project or business endeavor that didn't produce the desired results.  Whatever your circumstance happens to be, these things can plant a failure mentality or fear of failure in our minds.  Then as you step out in faith again, your mind will try to tell you, "remember what happened the last time?"  If we are not careful, then we find ourselves less willing to take steps toward the success God really intends for our lives.  However, the verse above, tells us the our road to good success is found by meditating on the Word of God.  Why is that true?  Because, if you keep looking at all those previous experiences, you will lack confidence in your ability to succeed in life.  But if you look everyday at all the promises and encouragement found in the Bible, you will go through the day feeling like you can overcome anything!  In addition to that, a lifestyle of daily focus on God's Word will also help you stay obedient to the Lord, and that in itself will keep you clear of failure!  We don't have to fear any type of failure when we keep our eyes on the Lord and His Word.  In fact, we have the power to speak to those thoughts and demons of failure and tell them to leave us in Jesus' Name.  Rise up and break the fear of failure trying to enter your life today! 

Days in the spirit ...

“Expect to have days where you will step into the spirit,” says the Lord.  “For I have set times in prayer for you to experience the most incredible things with Me.  Yes, there will be visions, dreams and revelations that will carry out much in the earth!”

Prophetic Scripture:
Revelation 1:10 – I was in the Spirit on the Lord’s day, and I heard behind me a voice, as of a trumpet.

Always keep in mind that God is a Spirit (John 4:23) and He works in the spirit realm.  When the Apostle John was “in the spirit” in the Scripture above, he was in a place of prayer where his perception was more in the realm of the spirit than the earth around him.  God wants us to have times like that too.  God can be found in the physical realm, but we need times where we come to Him “in the spirit.”  So how do we position ourselves to get there?  First, it requires a sacrifice.  I am sure John had many things he could have been thinking about the day he received the vision that wrote the Book of Revelation.  He could have been complaining and asking God why he was exiled to the island of Patmos.  No, instead he turned his focus away from the earth around him and connected with the Lord in the spirit.  He stepped into a place with God where he supernaturally began to see into the spirit realm.  He was more conscious of that than his physical location.  If we make time with God, I believe we will have more of these incredible supernatural experiences with Him.  When that happened for John he saw many visions and amazing things were revealed.  Many others in the Bible experienced similar things, but it came because they gave their time to the Spirit.  God is waiting and wants your “days in the spirit” to be a great blessing in the earth!

Prayer:

Father, I come to You in the spirit.  I ask that You would teach me to enjoy days in the spirit as I give my time to You.  I declare that I will begin to have supernatural experiences with You.  I expect to see visions and have divine revelations from You Lord.  Open my spiritual eyes and ears, Lord, and allow me to step into the spirit today.  Thank You Father! In Jesus’ Name, AMEN.

Shake out the Darkness ...

"Yes, again I shall shake out the darkness and bring it into the light.  For I shall give My people the purity they have cried out for in their lives, homes, cities, churches and nations.  Remove all the dark things and run with me now," says the Lord, "and together let’s create a fresh stream of holiness in the earth!"

Prophetic Scripture:
Hebrews 12:26-27 – Whose voice then shook the earth: but now he hath promised, saying, Yet once more I shake not the earth only, but also heaven.  And this word, Yet once more, signifieth the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that are made, that those things which cannot be shaken may remain.  . .

It is always a good thing when God begins to shake things up.  I think of it similar to when you shake a little rug and all the dust comes flying out!  Afterwards, it looks so much better!  When God removes darkness from our lives, cities and nations, it is always with love and mercy even though a good shaking doesn’t always feel pleasing.  Yet it is better for God to do the shaking than for the devil to do it when he has gained access through uncontrolled darkness.  Remember that when God shakes the darkness from our lives, it is not with harm and shame.  He does it with His hand of mercy and care.  Realize when God shakes things, He begins with a word.  Respond to that shaking!  Get busy removing what He tells you to remove.  Sometimes there is more than one thing to shake out.  When we respond and work with God to first get the impurities out of our lives, we enable Him to build powerfully with all the good things that remain.  We become vessels of light that create a standard of holiness.  Then God can work together with us to remove the dust and impurities that exist in our schools, cities and nations so that His love and glory can fill the earth!

Prayer:

Father, I ask You to help me remove all impurities from my life.  Help me shake out the darkness.  I commit to walk in purity and ask that You will use me as a vessel of light to create a standard of holiness all over the world.  I thank You for it now. In Jesus’ Name, AMEN.

BOLD as a lion ...

Bold as Lion!
"See now that I grant the spirit of boldness unto you.  For even as it was with the early church, when they stood without fear, so shall you have boldness to stand and step out, for the Lord will do signs and wonders before you in your land!"

Prophetic Scripture:
Proverbs 28:1 – The wicked flee when no man pursueth: but the righteous are bold as a lion.

Like the early church, God wants us to step out with boldness concerning the gospel of power, signs and wonders!  Even when they were persecuted in Acts 4:29-31, these already bold apostles and believers prayed for more boldness!  They wanted boldness to step out in miracles.  They wanted boldness to preach in the middle of the evils of the day.  Without the presence of the Lord’s boldness coming upon you it is easy to revert into intimidation, especially when the pressure is on and the enemy is trying to stand you down.  However, be assured that we can be bold as lions about what we believe.  We can be bold that Jesus is the healer and does miracles today.  We can be bold about righteousness, because the Lord will empower us to do it.  You begin by praying for boldness, yes, but then it requires a step.  It is like the old Nike saying, “Just do it!”  Sometimes you just have to throw caution to the wind and walk out in the anointing boldly!  Quit telling yourself that you are shy or that it is not in your DNA to be a bold person.  Let the Lord help you step by step, but then run out into it and be bold for what you believe and know.  When you do, there will be miracles, signs and wonders that will follow you!  Be bold in the spirit today!

Prayer:

Father, I ask You today for an increased measure of boldness.  Teach me how to step out into bold signs, wonders, and miracles in every circumstance and every setting of resistance.  I ask that You would stretch forth Your hand of power and work through me and I take bold steps for You right now!  Thank You Lord and I receive it in the Name of Jesus, Amen!

Plans of the heathen overturned ...

"Fear not the raging sound of the heathen and how they boast dark things," says the Lord.  "For I have said already that the efforts of the heathen shall fail and their kingdoms shall be overthrown.  See how they shall not overpower My chosen ones in this hour, but My people shall run in unusual victory!"

Prophetic Scripture:
Haggai 2:22 - And I will overthrow the throne of kingdoms, and I will destroy the strength of the kingdoms of the heathen; and I will overthrow the chariots, and those that ride in them; and the horses and their riders shall come down, every one by the sword of his brother.

We live in a time when we have to make a determined decision not to believe that the kingdom of the heathen will prosper.  I remember one time driving through an office park with an upscale neighborhood nearby and said to the Lord, "Lord, it bothers me that the heathen have all this, but your people and churches seem to have small, beat-up buildings, houses and few facilities."  Now, I do know that not everything is that way or as it seems, but I do believe God wants us to remember that all the kingdoms of the heathen will eventually fail.  The heathen may appear to prosper on the outside for a period of time, but without God's endorsement they live everyday on shaky ground.  When Egypt seemed like they had everything going for them and the children of Israel as their slaves had nothing, things were not as they seemed.  The chariots of Egypt were on shaky ground and about to be overturned!   Know that in today's world the chariots of the heathen are about to be overturned.  God will always cause those with a righteous cause to prosper and will create doors of opportunity for them to do so!  As the church, we have to stay united together for the cause of the Gospel.  This will cause our kingdom to stand strong, while the heathen fight with each other.  Eventually they will destroy themselves according to the verse above.  Know today, that God more than ever before is helping the cause of the righteous and defeating the strength of the heathen!

Prayer:

Lord, I ask You today to prosper the cause of the righteous and make us strong.  Unite Your people together in this hour in a new and fresh way Lord.  I declare that the works and kingdoms of darkness will not prosper against us and I thank You that the chariots of the wicked will be overturned!  Thank You for helping Your people in this present time!  In Jesus' Name, Amen. 

Oil of gladness...

"Yes," says the Lord, "I have set a joyful course before you, so don’t be heavy in heart, for I have anointed you with the oil of gladness that you might find a glorious future, so choose now to remain in a place of rejoicing!"

Prophetic Scripture:
Psalm 45:7 – Thou lovest righteousness, and hatest wickedness: therefore God thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.

God has destined us to live in gladness.  During periods of difficulty in our lives, gladness doesn’t always seem to come easily.  However, in the Scripture above, we find a prophetic verse about Jesus that shows us how to have gladness in every situation of our lives.  We find that God anointed Jesus with the oil of gladness.  Yes, there is a special anointing from the Spirit of God specifically for gladness.  We can see how this anointing operated over Jesus.  He chose to be crucified and according to the Bible, He was glad about it.  Now, certainly He wasn’t looking forward to what He suffered because He once prayed that if it were possible to avoid, He would rather not go through with it (Mt. 26:39).  Yet, something enabled Jesus to overcome those feelings.   Hebrews 12:2, says He saw a course of joy in front of Him that made Him look past all reservation.  It takes an anointing from the Lord to look past our present circumstances and be glad because beyond it we see a glorious future.  Jesus had something on His life that drew that kind of anointing to Him.  It was because He loved righteousness and hated wickedness.  When you choose obedience to God and refuse to walk in sin then the anointing for gladness will follow your life.  God wants you to be glad today, because when the oil of gladness is upon you, then you will see things like you have never seen them before!

Prayer:

Lord, I receive the anointing for gladness today.  I expect to have joy in my course.  Let a new anointing come over me right now so that I am empowered to look past the present and see my glorious future.  I choose the course of joy over heaviness today.  I bind every evil spirit of heaviness and sorrow and I step into the oil of gladness today!  In Jesus’ Name, AMEN.

Stand on a sure place ...

“Be confident,” says the Lord, “that I will place you in the sure place.  For if you will obey My ways and follow Me today, you will stand on a strong foundation and I will not let you fall into any trap of evil this day!”

Prophetic Scripture:
Isaiah 22:23 – And I will fasten him as a nail in a sure place; and he shall be for a glorious throne to his father’s house.

This verse above is a powerful prophetic Scripture about Jesus.  He was fastened to a cross so that through His blood we can stand on a stable foundation through Him.  Jesus’ steadfast Kingdom provides us stability.  The key to remaining there is to follow Him closely and obey Him from a pure heart.  Everyone wants to experience a stable life!  No one wants constant ups and downs in their employment, church, finances, and family or even in their very Christianity.  By living in obedience to God today, you will find stability.  Then staying close and accountable to other believers helps all of us to remain in that sure place!  By staying close to the Lord and the things of His kingdom, we place ourselves in position for spiritual and natural stability throughout life.  God is able to intervene in situations, change things, speak to us about our decisions, correct us and prepare us for His will.  God wants us to live strong and stable in Him.  Use your faith today for a life of stability in all that concerns you!  There you will find peace and confidence with Jesus, seated with Him in wonderful and heavenly places of success!

Prayer:

Lord, I thank You that Jesus was nailed to a cross so I could enjoy a steady and stable way of life!  I received what Jesus paid for and I ask You, Father, to help me hear Your voice and follow You closely today.  Speak to me about the things I need to change that are keeping me from a stable lifestyle and help me correct them.  Thank You, Lord, that I can expect to stand on a sure foundation in my life! In Jesus’ Name, AMEN.

Sent and anointed ...

“Receive the anointing to go and declare.  See yourself sent and anointed to go out and let My kingdom be seen and heard.  For My sending power is on you today!”

Prophetic Scripture:
Romans 10:14 – How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard?  And how shall they hear without a preacher?

Jesus made a life-changing statement when He said that the harvest fields were ready to be harvested, but there were few laborers committed to the task.  It is easy to get our eyes off the task of reaching souls for Jesus.  To reach souls does not mean we have to pack stadiums and give altar calls.  We are in contact with people everyday that we can reach.  Some are people we know and some we do not know.  In either case, we should be sensitive to the Holy Spirit who may want us to minister in an unexpected way today.  Maybe it is at work or just someone in line at the grocery store.  Sometimes you may be able to share the whole gospel and other times just extend the kindness and love of Jesus.  God wants us to show His love and power to the world today.  They are desperate and we are sent to help them.

Prayer:

Father, I want to fulfill Your call in ministering to the lost.  I make a fresh commitment today to reach out to those who need a touch from You.  Here am I Lord, send me!  Open my eyes today to those you want me to minister to in a special way.  Make me a tool for Your kingdom so that people will be turned to You.  In Jesus’ Name, AMEN.

Sounds of transformation ...

"Begin to watch carefully what I am doing globally now.  For there is a transformation taking place in My people.  There will be new signs, and new sounds, fresh revelation and vision.  I am forming My glorious church that will do good things in this time," says the Lord.

Prophetic Scripture:
Isaiah 43:21 - This people have I formed for myself, they shall showforth my praise.
Keep in mind that God is always working to change you for the better and is doing the same in the entire Body of Christ.  God will have for Himself a glorious church without spot or wrinkle, who will do His work and live for Him in a most wonderful way.  God is determined to make your name a praise! You may feel in your life today that you are not progressing or growing spiritually like you should.  Maybe it seems to you like the church itself is failing more than it is succeeding.  That is not the case, God is forming you for Himself and He is transforming the entire Body of Christ into something that will cause His Name to receive praise in this hour.  You may not see the details of growth, because healthy growth is often hard to notice on a daily basis.  So even when you may not realize it, God is growing you and growing His chruch.  However, unlike we often do, God does not throw His hands in the air and say, "O this isn't going to get anywhere, I give up!"  No, the Bible says He finishes what He begins.  Philippians 1:6 says, Be confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform until the day of Jesus Christ.  In other words, God will not give up transforming you and the entire church until the day of Jesus' return!  He will get what He is after and that is a people who will truly show forth His praise!

Prayer:

Father, I pray for Your people today.  I ask that we will walk in harmony with You as You transform us all into a people who will give praise to Your Name.  Change me Lord in every area of my life, and I thank You that I will become the person You have destined me to be.  Transform me Lord into a testimony each and everyday and I choose to be obedient to Your guidance as Your good work is performed in me.  In Jesus Name, Amen.

Clear mind and memory ...

"For I am the One who enables your mind," says the Lord.  "Yes, you shall be able to recall things afresh and your mind shall be clear this day.  For My mind is in you now and I have said your memory is sharp and clear," says the Lord your God!

Prophetic Scripture:
John 14:26 – But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.

Sometimes we make jokes about our minds.  We laughingly say things like, “I’m going crazy”, “I can’t remember things like I used to”, or “it’s just a sign of old age”.  However, we should change that attitude and believe what Jesus said.  He said that when His Spirit comes into our lives, He will help us remember things, particularly the teachings and words of Jesus.  The Bible also says in 1 Corinthians 2:16, that we have the mind of Christ.  We need to believe that the Lord will bless our minds everyday.  Expect to have a clear memory, rather than speak negative things about your mind.  Your mind is blessed today.  You are smart because of the Spirit of the Lord in you.  If you feel like you are having mental, emotional or memory troubles, then stand upon what the Bible says about your mind.  It doesn’t matter how young or old you are!  Then practice thinking on what is right from the Bible instead of all the mayhem life tries to throw at you.  Command your mind to come in line with the peace of God and begin to think on Him.  Tell yourself to sleep peacefully and rest in the Lord.  Know that you are blessed in your mind today and God has enabled you to remember all that is important!

Prayer:

Father, I thank You that I have the mind of Christ.  I rest in that anointing and expect to remember things, to be at peace and think clearly.  I take what belongs to me concerning mental peace and stability.  I command my thoughts and memory right now to come in line with the Word of God.  Mind, you be at peace now! In the Name of Jesus, Amen!

Arrows of the Lord ...

"Don’t be fearful of the enemy that walks about," says the Lord.  "For know that I have already sent out my arrows to interrupt what the prince of darkness would plan against you in secret.  Know today, that his works are scattered and divided before you right now!"

Prophetic Scripture:
2 Samuel 22:15 – And he sent out arrows, and scattered them; lightning, and discomfited them.

God does not want you to live with “what if” in mind.  Thoughts of something terrible that might happen is a scheme of the devil.  Satan will tell you, “what if you get ill?”, “what if you are injured or killed?”, “what if your finances fail?”, or “what if something happens to your loved one?”  etc.  The devil is a liar because the Mighty God of power has already interrupted him.  If satan could have taken you out so easily, he would have already done so!  He cannot do it because something has restrained him; it is called the arrows of the Lord’s anointing!  They have flown right into the middle of the enemy’s war camp and burnt his mapped out plan to a crisp, even when you didn’t know about it!  Believe today that the schemes of darkness are being confused all around you.  Refrain from giving time to negative thoughts of fear.  Speak to them, sing and rejoice because God has already defended you!  Don’t think on what could happen, but rather in what God has already stopped and interrupted for you.  God is working for you in the spirit and no plot of darkness will prosper against you today!

Prayer:

I stand up today in the power of the Lord of Hosts!  You Lord are the God of might and deliverance.  Your arrows have gone out and scattered every enemy that would try to harm me.  I rejoice today in the power of the good God, the King of Kings and Lord of Lords, Jesus the Captain of the Hosts.  He is fighting for me today!  Thank You Father!  In the Name of Jesus, Amen!

Jesus Everywhere ...

“A time is upon you when My Name will be preached in multiplied effort,” says the Lord.  “My people across the globe are being positioned to impact the world through new innovative means and the heathen will say a new thing.  For you will hear them say in this season, Jesus is everywhere.”

Prophetic Scripture:
Galatians 1:16 – To reveal his son in me, that I might preach him among the heathen;…

We are in a time, when we need to seize the moment, as they say.  There is just something in the “air” that is about to set the world ablaze with the anointing.  Do you sense it?  Paul quoted the above verse in Galatians about his own call to ministry, but the truth is that we all have the golden opportunity to impact the world with the power of God.  The trap we can easily fall into is that of just assuming someone else will take up the effort.  If you are like me, you run through the day just trying to cross all your tasks off your list!  Easily we can forget the most important one and that is to preach Christ—whether it is verbal, through miracles or other manifestations of the Holy Spirit.  Just as the world is always improving technology, we should expect that God will give us witty ideas to spread the gospel if we will become available.  We want people everywhere to hear the cross, see miracles and the power of God.  I believe the Holy Spirit wants to give us a fresh blueprint on how to accomplish this work.  Ask God to give you new ideas and plans and pray for the Body of Christ to arise to the occasion.  Begin today to prophesy to your areas of influence and declare that people around you will be so touched that they can’t help but say Jesus is everywhere!

Prayer:

Lord, I make myself available to preach Christ among the heathen through the power of God.  I ask You to reveal to me the plans for me to do it—fresh ideas and a download of anointing comes upon me now!  I say that every life I touch will begin to say that You are everywhere!  In Jesus’ Name, AMEN.

Sharp Discernment ...

"For I tell you that greater discernment is upon you," says the Lord.  "For I have enabled you to step into it so that you will not have a dull edge about anything.  Sharpen your discernment," says the Spirit, "and you will easily separate the light from the dark in this hour."

Prophetic Scripture:
Hebrews 5:13-14 – For every one that useth milk is unskillful in the word or righteousness:  for he is a babe.  But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.

When it comes to right and wrong in our modern day, the dividing line can get pretty cloudy.  Everyone has an opinion about choices.  Opinions in the church about what we should and should not do vary greatly, making the rules feel very confusing.  Some people wouldn’t recognize the devil if he walked up in a shiny red suit and tapped them on the shoulder!  God wants us to have a keen spiritual “nose”.  This way we can easily sniff out evil and smell the aroma of God at the same time.  The best way to sharpen our ability to discern is by becoming skillful with the word of righteousness.  It will keep you accurate in the spirit, not spooky, suspicious nor pompous and religious either.  Exercising your spiritual discernment comes only by chewing regularly on the revelation from the Bible—the Word of God and coupling that with prayer.  Without that diet, you will eventually suffer spiritual malnutrition and begin to “eat” anything that passes by.  When a person is seriously hungry, they can do some crazy things!  That is where many Christians live, on all sorts of spiritual tangents and compromises.  This happens when our discernment gets dull.  Sharpen your discernment by adding the meat of God’s Word to your daily appetite.  Very little will get past you and you will find yourself succeeding in spiritual things. 

Prayer:

Lord, I thank you today, for helping me to sharpen my discernment.  Help me clearly recognize the difference between good and evil.  Show me now, by your Spirit, areas that I have compromised and need to adjust.  I commit to a fresh appetite and diet of Your Word now.  I believe that I shall begin to see sharply in the spirit and know accurately that which is of You.  I worship You Lord for that today. In Jesus’ Name, AMEN.

Kingdom Lifestyle ...

Let Your Kingdom Come!
"For My kingdom way is in you," says the Spirit.  For there is only one pattern of life, it is the way of My kingdom.  Let My kingdom lifestyle increase in you, then My anointing can continue to increase upon you!"

Prophetic Scripture:
Luke 11:2 – When ye pray, say, Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be they name.  Thy kingdom come.  Thy will be done, as in heaven, so in earth.

So what does it really mean when we pray the words, “Thy kingdom come?”  This is what Jesus taught us to pray.  As Christians, His kingdom is deposited inside of us, but we need to grow and let the expression of His kingdom to be seen outwardly in our lives and surroundings.  We should pray for it.  A kingdom expression is when you know that you serve a real King—Jesus, and there are patterns, lifestyles and methods that are required for living in His kingdom.  When we pray, “thy Kingdom come, thy will be done” we are asking for God’s ways to be the visible, dominating factor in our lives.  We are also acknowledging that we are submitted to His will and our lives are under His Lordship.  Many believers lack power because they haven’t truly submitted themselves to His kingdom!  I believe we must pray and ask for God’s kingdom lifestyle to be manifest through us in everything we do.  When kingdom living is our way of life we create an atmosphere that is ready and able to handle the more powerful anointings of the Holy Spirit.  Ask God to let His Kingdom be manifest through your life in every area today!

Prayer:

Lord, I submit myself afresh to Your Kingdom.  I turn my life fully over to Your Lordship.  Let my words, attitudes, actions, and habits all reflect submission to Your Kingdom.  I renounce every pattern of life outside of Your Kingdom expression and I align myself with a new way of living.  Reveal to me every area of my life that does not reflect a Kingdom expression and I will change it now!  Thank you Jesus for being the Lord over my life! In Jesus’ Name, AMEN.

Expect to receive ...

Your Gate is Open!
"Command your gates of blessing to be open today," says Lord.  "For My deliverance shall be your walls of protection and you shall be received in favor when you enter in."

Prophetic Scripture:
Isaiah 26: 1-2 – In that day shall this song be sung in the land of Judah;  We have a strong city; salvation will God appoint for walls and bulwarks.  Open ye the gates, that the righteous nation which keepeth the truth may enter in.

Many times when we pray prophetically, we speak to gates and command them to open in the spirit.  Today, see those gates a little differently.  See every spiritual gate that you must enter open before you.  However, don’t just see any gate open, see your gates open.  Why will it happen for you?  Because you keep the truth and that will make the way open before you.  Whatever God has mandated you for, command a clear path so that you can enter your territory unhindered.  Paul said in 2 Corinthians 7:2 – “Receive us, we have wronged no man, we have corrupted no man, we have defrauded no man.”  When you walk in God’s integrity, you can use your faith to prophetically declare that you are well received and your gates of utterance are open everywhere you go.  God will fight for you, so command your gates to open, in Jesus’ Name!

Prayer:

Father, I declare today that my gates of utterance are open!  You have appointed your delivering power to be a wall of protection on my right hand and left.  I boldly enter my gates today and expect to be received and favored everywhere I go!  In Jesus’ Name, AMEN.
