PROPHETIC FOCUS FOR NOVEMBER 2022

Who is as the wise man? and who knoweth the interpretation of a thing? a man’s wisdom maketh his face to shine, and the boldness of his face shall be changed.
Ecclesiastes 8:1 [KJV]

Yeah! Congratulations! You made it already! Welcome to the Eleventh month! It is already November 2022 just like that? I feel like singing: “we have seen the Lord’s goodness, His mercies and compassion. We have seen the Lord’s goodness, Halleluyah, praise the Lord!” Father, what you have done for us is beyond words. If we take this month out just to thank you for 2022, it won’t still be enough. Thank You for bringing us through from January to this day November 1st. To You alone be all the glory in the name of the Lord Yahushua Hamashiach Amen! Beloved, we trust you have not and will not recover from the spiritual and even wholistic metamorphosis that the month of October 2022 sparked off in you. 2 Corinthians 3:18 says, “But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.” The Word is the glass of the Holy Spirit that brings us into continuous change (Greek: metamorphoo – transformation, transfiguration, etc). The Green Pastures is real but not automatic. Just as we saw all through last month that it requires getting the Word, which is the seed in Luke 8:11. Planting that seed in the ground of our heart, watering it by meditation; making the climate conducive by praying in the Holy Spirit which turns the seed to a fruitful field and then a forest by remaining a doer of the Word. The impact of that is a life of wonders and metamorphosis. May the impact of that Word-bath in October 2022 remain an eternal deposit in your life and destiny that keeps speaking to eternity in the name of the Lord Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

THANKFUL FOR OCTOBER 2022

THANKFUL FOR OCTOBER 2022

In God will I praise his word: in the Lord will I praise his word.
Psalms 56:10 [KJV]

The Lord and His Word are the same. For us to come into His presence, the divine protocol is to enter with thanksgiving (see Psalms 100:4). You cannot enjoy the Word from the outer court. It is the Spirit that teaches us the Word. You must come into His presence first and that entails having a thankful/grateful heart. Maybe this is the link that is missing in the lives of so many students of the Word. Thanksgiving and praise is the way to enter into the presence of the Lord. Also it takes thanksgiving and praise to access revelation from the Word because you are only inside the court by thanksgiving and praise. Mark 4:11 says, ‘And he said unto them, Unto you it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God: but unto them that are without, all these things are done in parables:’ You are within the court by thanksgiving and praise. No matter how in a hurry you are to read or study, close your eyes and thank the Lord for the privilege to have His Word and to read it.

ARE THERE DANGERS OF NOT BEING BUILT UP BY THE WORD?

ARE THERE DANGERS OF NOT BEING BUILT UP BY THE WORD?

And now, brethren, I commend you to God, and to the word of his grace, which is able to build you up, and to give you an inheritance among all them which are sanctified.
Acts 20:32 (KJV)

In this kingdom, it takes maturing into sonship to enter into your inheritance. Isaiah 9:6 says, ‘For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.’ You are born a child when you are born again. But it takes the training of the Word to come into sonship and until you come to sonship, you don’t enter into rulership. Romans 8:19 says, ‘For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God.’ The creation is not waiting for the children of Yahweh but for the sons. These are ones that have been trained by the Word and are able to receive the government upon their shoulder. They are people who are fully developed in the Word to understand the will of the Father and how to respond in obedience to Him. All these development is only possible by the Word. It is only the agency of the Word that see the development of the child of Yahweh into sonship. Sonship is about coming to the stage of knowing the will of the Father and that comes by much training in the Word.

TO ENCOUNTER THE WORD (5): ENGAGE THE HOLY SPIRIT

TO ENCOUNTER THE WORD (5): ENGAGE THE HOLY SPIRIT

Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself? but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.
John 16:13 (KJV)

The Bible is not a newspaper or magazine. II Peter 1:21 says, ‘For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.’ The Bible is the product of the Holy Ghost. The Bible is the collection of the inspiration of the Holy Ghost. This is why it is expedient to engage the author of the Bible in trying to understand and apply what He inspired. It is the moving of the Holy Spirit on the lives of holy men of Yahweh that resulted in the Bible. That is to say that there is no other person that knows the Bible like the author, the blessed Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is our teacher and guide into the deep things of the Father. He guides us into all truth. The Word of Yahweh is the truth and it takes the Holy Spirit to come into this truth. With the Holy Spirit, the Bible is new everyday because He keeps expounding the truth and bringing out new things from same chapter and verse that you have been reading everyday.

TO ENCOUNTER THE WORD (4): STAY LONG WITH THE WORD

TO ENCOUNTER THE WORD (4): STAY LONG WITH THE WORD

They that tarry long at the wine; they that go to seek mixed wine.
Proverbs 23:30 (KJV)

No matter how light a person is, no one gets intoxicated with one cup of wine. Conversely, no matter how hard a person is, tarrying long at the wine will pass even the hardest person out. That is true with the Word. Just skipping a few pages, won’t achieve the result we are describing this month. It is tarrying long with the Word that brings about saturation. There is what is called saturation. It is the act of soaking thoroughly with a liquid. You cannot encounter the Word with a measure that cannot even satisfy you. Before you talk of saturation, then you have gone beyond satisfaction. But you are still in control at the level of satisfaction. We are talking of the level where you are no more in control. We are saying, stay long with the Word until the Word takes a hold of you and begins to control you and your actions. We are saying that the Word cannot saturate you in the skimpy way that you are handling the Word now. The principle of intoxication is staying long at the wine of the Word. Isaiah 5:11 confirms that it takes staying long at wine to be inflamed therewith, “Woe unto them that rise up early in the morning, that they may follow strong drink; that continue until night, till wine inflame them!”

TO ENCOUNTER THE WORD (3): ENGAGE THE MYSTERY OF A QUIET TIME

TO ENCOUNTER THE WORD (3): ENGAGE THE MYSTERY OF A QUIET TIME

The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost, be with you all. Amen.
II Corinthians 13:14 (KJV)

Whenever I think of the term “Quiet Time” the Greek word “koinonia” comes to mind. Koinonia is the Greek word translated communion in our opening text. Literally koinonia means participation. Personally or socially, koinonia means intercourse, that is the highest level of communication between two people. Quiet Time is a time of communion or intercourse with the Holy Spirit, the Word and the Father all in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach. Your calling in HaMashiach, beloved, is a calling into the koinonia of the God-kind. I Corinthians 1:9 says, ‘God is faithful, by whom ye were called unto the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord.’ The quiet-time is a specific time in which we seek the face of the Lord, to know his friendship personally and to worship and understand him better. Just like the term implies, Quiet-time is a time and place of quietness, where you can maintain some level of tranquillity to concentrate on the Presence of the Lord and on the communion of this God-kind. Quiet time, also called heart-to-heart time, or one-on-one time with the Father, is a regular individual session of Christian spiritual activities, such as prayer, private meditation, contemplation, worship, or study of the Bible. Quiet-time is the time of you coming to yourself both spirit, soul and body and consciously reaching out for the Person, Presence and Word of the Lord. That is the mystery of recovery of destiny as it happened to the man we have come to know as the prodigal son in Luke 15:11-32. Luke 15:17 says, “And when he came to himself, he said,” that is his destiny could not be recovered until he sat down in probably a quiet-time session.

TO ENCOUNTER THE WORD (1): READ AND LISTEN TO THE WORD

TO ENCOUNTER THE WORD (1): READ AND LISTEN TO THE WORD

Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.
II Timothy 2:15 (KJV)

Beginning from today, we are going to examine how we can encounter the Word. With all we have seen the Word can do for us, unless we connect with the Word, we cannot enjoy the benefits. So how can we experience the Word and have the Word impart and metamorphose us? As we begin to unfold how we can do this, believe Yahweh to be a doer and not a hearer only. Decide to do and plan to do. Set Word objectives of what you must be covering in the light of what we are going to be showing you in a couple of days to come. It is He that does the Word that is blessed in his/her life (see James 1:22-25). The first way we encounter the Word is to hear it. Romans 10:17 says, ‘So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.’ Hearing the Word is by reading and listening. When you read, you are engaging your eyes and ears at the same time. This is important because what you see, makes impressions on your mind. The ear and the eyes are major channels into your mind and consequently your spirit-man. Consider this instruction from the Lord through Moses in Deuteronomy 11:19, ‘And ye shall teach them your children, speaking of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, when thou liest down, and when thou risest up.’ This is saying let the ear channel of your children be saturated with the Word practically all the time.

HOW DOES THE WORD BUILD UP (8): BY PROVOKING EXPECTATION

HOW DOES THE WORD BUILD UP (8): BY PROVOKING EXPECTATION

Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death.
James 1:15 (KJV)

Our opening text looks like a negative scripture but please follow me. This scripture explains what happens with expectation. This scripture is talking about desire/lust. From verse 14 it started saying that every man is tempted when he is drawn away of his own desire/lust and enticed. Then it said that lust/desire when it is conceived, brings forth sin. This is powerful. What you only need to do in this process was to conceive a desire. However, when that process of conception of desire or expectation is finished, it activates chain of reactions and processes that brings about a product. Expectation is defined as belief about (or mental picture of) the future. It is anticipating with confidence of fulfilment of something. The Word shows you the character of Yahweh, the provisions He has made for you, the outcomes of obeying Him and His provisions. All these knowledge deposit an expectation into you and when this expectation is conceived, it brings forth. Proverbs 23:18 says, “For surely there is an end; and thine expectation shall not be cut off.” This is the winning ways of the Word. It has the ability to impart expectation that determines manifestation. You can never see manifestation beyond your expectation. It is expectation that sets the limits for divine manifestations in your life. And this is both in the positive and the negative side.

HOW DOES THE WORD BUILD UP (7): BY GIVING YOU PEACE

HOW DOES THE WORD BUILD UP (7): BY GIVING YOU PEACE

Great peace have they which love thy law: and nothing shall offend them.
Psalms 119:165 (KJV)

There are few things that are as valuable in life as peace. Peace is a stress-free state of security and calmness that comes when there’s no fighting or war, everything coexisting in perfect harmony and freedom. Peace is a state where there is no war or fighting within or without you. It is coming to a place of perfect rest and tranquillity in your spirit-man. So many people are at war within. They have the good things of life and live in good places and environment yet there is war within, no peace. The worst case of existence is lack of peace existence. That is the reason for suicide. The worst part of it is that there is nothing physical that can give or guarantee you peace within. Peace within comes first from surrendering your heart to the Lord Yahushua, reconciling with the Father through the Lord Yahushua. Then that state of peace is established by taking your seat in the Word. When you are in the Word, no devil can offend you, nothing can upset your heart. The world may be in turmoil; your environment may be on fire but within there is absolute peace and tranquillity. Peace is a state of living without a guilty conscience. Peace is a state of living without your heart skipping at the thoughts of things.

HOW DOES THE WORD BUILD UP (5): BY IMPARTING THE SPIRIT OF FAITH

HOW DOES THE WORD BUILD UP (5): BY IMPARTING THE SPIRIT OF FAITH

So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
Romans 10:17 [KJV]

The Word does not only inform us, it transforms us. It transforms us by imparting the Spirit of Yahweh to us or put another way, the faith of Yahweh. John 6:63 says that the Word is spirit and life. The problem we have is running from the Word. If you can just make the Word your best friend and be diligent to read, study, and meditate, the Word would impart you effortlessly with the faith required to see the Word come to pass in your life. The Word builds us up by imparting us with the spirit of faith. The spirit of faith is the force that compels obedience to the Word of Yahweh. The truth is that it is not just the knowledge of the Word that transforms, it is the response of faith to the Word that transforms. Until you respond to the Word in faith, it would just be like a story to you. But what we are saying today is that faith is not what you scratch your head to get. Faith is automatic with the Word entering your spirit-man. Faith comes by hearing and understanding the Word. Your task is to dedicate yourself to the Word. Know all that we have already discussed about the Word being eternal and infallible. Believe that the Word is Yahweh speaking to you today. Then respond as if the Word is true and see what happens. Faith is not a struggle. Anybody residing on the lane and even the room of the Word will come under the force called faith and that effortlessly.
