    SUPERNATURAL GIFTS OF THE SPIRIT (7): PROPHECY

    … to another prophecy? …
    I Corinthians 12:10 (KJV)

    Prophecy is supernatural utterance in a known tongue. The Hebrew meaning of the phrase, “to prophesy” is to flow forth. It also carries with it the thought: to bubble forth like a fountain, to let drop, to lift up, to tumble forth, and to spring forth. The Greek word that is translated “prophesy” means to speak for another. So “prophesy” can mean to speak for Yahweh or to be His spokesman. In First Corinthians 14:1 we read: “Follow after charity [love], and desire spiritual gifts, but rather that ye may PROPHESY.” We are told to desire spiritual gifts, but especially that we might prophesy. That doesn’t mean we are not to desire the other gifts, but we are to especially desire to prophesy. Again, at the end of First Corinthians chapter 14, Paul repeated, “Wherefore, brethren, covet to prophesy …” (1 Cor. 14:39). Paul was writing by the inspiration of Yahweh. We could say it this way: Yahweh through Paul spoke to the Church at Corinth (and it applies to the Church everywhere) to desire spiritual gifts, but rather that we may prophesy (1 Cor. 14:1,39).

    There is Foretelling and there is Forth Telling. The simple gift of prophecy should not be confused with the prophetic office or with prophetic utterance that may come forth in the prophet’s ministry. Paul said, “But he that prophesieth speaketh unto men to EDIFICATION, and EXHORTATION, and COMFORT” (1 Cor. 14:3). Thus, we can readily see that in the simple gift of prophecy there is no revelation. The simple gift of prophecy is given for edification, exhortation, and comfort. In the office of the prophet, however we very often find that revelation or foretelling does come forth, even through the vehicle of prophecy. It is also interesting to note the difference between prophecy in the Old Testament and prophecy in the New Testament. In the Old Testament prophecy was essentially foretelling, but in the New Testament we see that the gift of prophecy shifts strongly to forth telling. Prophesying Is More Than Preaching. Some people think that “to prophesy” means to preach. All inspired utterance is prophecy in some form or another, but the spiritual gift of prophecy isn’t preaching. Sometimes there is an element of prophecy in preaching when a person is anointed by the Spirit and is inspired to say things spontaneously that come from his spirit rather than his head. But that is only one phase of the operation of the gift of prophecy.

    The utterance gifts are liable to abuse and misuse more than the other gifts of the Spirit. That is why there is need to sound a note of caution. You must not prophesy. If you have to prophesy make sure that it is not from self. I Corinthians 14:32 says, ‘And the spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets.’ The manifestation of the gift of prophecy is as the Spirit wills, not as you will. Don’t open up to unclean spirits just because you want to prophesy. Caution!

    REMEMBER: The gift of prophecy is supernatural utterance in a known tongue.

    PRAYER: Dear Heavenly Father, I thank You for Your word to me today. I desire to function in the gifts of the Spirit according to Your Will. I ask that You help me to always maintain connection with Your Spirit, so I can be in the position to receive anytime according to His will in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

    PROPHETIC RELEASE: You are delivered today from a deception in the name of prophecy in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

  • WHAT IS THE LORD SAYING FOR FEBRUARY 2024?

    #WordForTodayDevotional

    WHAT IS THE LORD SAYING FOR FEBRUARY 2024?

    And he that reapeth receiveth wages, and gathereth fruit unto life eternal: that both he that soweth and he that reapeth may rejoice together.
    John 4:36 [KJV]

    Welcome to the month of February 2024. We are confident in the Lord that you have been supremely impacted on the prayer and fasting altar in the month of January. Everyone of us in some way has what Yahushua described as “this kind” and thank Yahweh that it is something that we can handle on the prayer and fasting altar. We began the month of January by seeing who Yahushua HaMashiach is and that despite who He is, He still fasted 40 days dry to be able to fulfil His purpose on earth. We saw that we could do no less if we desire to fulfil the call of Yahweh on our lives. We discussed what makes a fast and a scriptural fast. We saw what makes a fast acceptable before Yahweh and scriptural examples. We saw what fasting offers to motivate us to take the bull by the horns. We believe that having gone through the 21 days fasting of January, you are set to fly in 2024. Remember, that fasting is not a once for all time event. As often as you give and pray, you are to fast. So, ensure that you are not missing in at least a day consecrational fast weekly. The benefits of fasting discussed shall be evident in your life in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

    What then is the Lord saying for the Royal Life Family Worldwide in the month of February 2024? The soul of man is the highest interest of Yahweh on earth. When man fall, all of heaven went into intense work to implement the plan of a comeback for man. A call went through the heavens “who shall I send and who will go for us” to redeem man from the slavery to sin and Satan (see Isaiah 6:8, Revelation 5:1-6). No man in heaven, on earth or under the earth was worthy to respond to that call for the price and redemption of the soul of man is too costly and precious (Psalms 49:7-8). It is only Yahweh Himself that can afford that price. The Father proceeded from the throne in the person of Yahushua HaMashiach, was born, died, was buried, resurrected and ascended and fulfilled the demand of justice for the redemption of the soul of man. Glory to Yahweh the plan was executed perfectly and completely. Now, Yahushua commanded every believer to herald the news of this redemption and salvation to every other person that has not heard. You probably have heard of this news and have believed, repented and confessed Yahushua HaMashiach as Lord and personal Saviour. When you did, you were enlisted as a vanguard for propagating this good news.

    Our prophetic focus for the Month of February 2024 therefore, is “IN TRIUMPH, I AM GATHERING SOULS UNTO ETERNAL LIFE AND ENTERING INTO THE LABOURS OF OTHERS BY DIVINE FAVOUR” (John 4:36-38). In February 2024, we are going to trust Yahweh to understand our role in His vineyard and to take responsibility. The business of Yahweh on earth is the salvation of the soul of humanity. This is because the earth as it is presently constituted is going to pass away (see 2 Peter 3:7). No matter how we don’t want to hear it, the truth is that the earth shall be burnt up (see II Peter 3:10). Everyone living and dead will one day appear before the judgment seat of HaMashiach (see II Corinthians 5:10). There is a judgment going on right now. As you pass through the earth, you determine by yourself where you will spend eternity. Yahweh in HaMashiach has committed into the hands of the individual believer the task of informing everyone that the price for his/her soul has been paid. As a believer, your occupation notwithstanding, your primary assignment is preaching the gospel with your life and with words. The opportunities and success Yahweh brings your way is to well position you to excel in this task. Being preoccupied with any other thing is an error. We trust that this month Yahweh will reposition everyone of us to be effective and productive believers.

    Happy New Month!

    REMEMBER: In Triumph, I Am Gathering Souls Unto Eternal Life And Entering Into The Labours Of Others By Divine Favour.

    THANKSGIVING: Dear Father, thank You for the privilege of life, of seeing a new month. Thank You for sending Yahushua HaMashiach to pay the price for my sins and for the privilege of your presence in my life. Thank You for giving me the blessed Holy Spirit who now lives in me. Thank You for all you did for us in the month of January, all the prayers answered. I am set for this month, for all you desire to do in me and for me. Thank You in advance for a successful February 2024 in all ramifications in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

    PROPHETIC RELEASE: I decree that this month of February 2024 shall not see your end but you shall see its end. I decree no evil news shall be heard in your life, family and job/business. This month, the heavens open over you and your family for a turnaround your world cannot deny. This month, every agenda of evil against you is shattered now. You shall only walk in success, increase, favour, supernatural possibilities and triumphs on every side you turn. No man shall be able to stand against you and your progress all the days of this month. Testimonies shall be your daily bread this month and celebration unending shall be in your house. Get ready to align with purpose and destiny in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen.

  • HOW YAHWEH LEADS (4): PROPHECY

    #WordForTodayDevotional

    Monday DECEMBER 18, 2023

    HOW YAHWEH LEADS (4): PROPHECY

    And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; Ephesians 4:11 (KJV)

    There is a spiritual gift of prophecy (see I Corinthians 12:10) and there is the office of the prophet or the ministry gift of the prophet. The spiritual gift of Prophecy is simply speaking to exhort the brethren. It does not involve foretelling. I Corinthians 14:3 says, ‘But he that prophesieth speaketh unto men to edification, and exhortation, and comfort.’ Anyone that is filled with the Holy Spirit with the evidence of speaking in tongues can be used to prophesy. Apostle Paul encouraged believers to desire the gift of prophecy (I Corinthians 14:1). Then we have the office or ministry of the prophet. For one to function in the office of the prophet, he would have to have the gift of discerning of Spirit, the gift of the Word of Knowledge, the gift of the Word of Wisdom and the gift of prophecy at work in his life. The ministry of the prophet involves foretelling. Prophecy in whatever form is not the way Yahweh leads. Prophecy is only to confirm what the Lord has already told you by the inward witness. The Lord didn’t place prophets in the New Testament to lead Christians.

    There is a difference between the Old Testament saints and the New Testament saints. While in the Old Testament, prophets were Yahweh’s consulting centres. Anyone that wants to know the will of Yahweh would go to consult the prophet. This is because the people did not have the Holy Spirit. In the Old Testament, there are three people that are anointed to stand in their various offices – The King, the Priest and the Prophet. The prophet hears from Yahweh and relates to the people. This has changed in the New Testament. In the New Testament, the Holy Spirit has fallen on the people, now living in their recreated human spirits. The Holy Spirit now leads the people through the Inward Witness. So you are no more to go to the Prophet to hear from Yahweh for you. The primary way Yahweh speaks to you now is by the inward witness of the Holy Spirit. The New Testament prophet can confirm the Word that the Lord already gave you by the Inward Witness.

    Pa Hagin told of an experience that happened to him along this line. He knew a young man in his church that he has an inward witness that Yahweh was calling the young man to the ministry. But he never did tell him a word. But on a particular Sunday evening service as they were praying around the alter; he would go round to pray upon the members as the Holy Spirit would lead him. He came upon this young man and these words came out of his mouth, “This is a confirmation of what I said to you at 3 o’clock this afternoon as you were praying down in the storm cellar. You asked for a confirmation and this is it. That was Me speaking to you.” After the service Pa Hagin checked on the young man to know if he was praying down the storm cellar this afternoon and he confirmed it. So prophets are to confirm what Yahweh has already told you. Shalom!

    REMEMBER: Prophecy should confirm what you already received by the inward witness.

    CONFESSION: My Father talks to me in His Word and by the Inward Witness. I do not seek to hear Him from prophecy as the way He is leading me, rather, prophecy confirms what He already told me. Hallelujah!!!

    PROPHETIC RELEASE: Every evil seed that has been sown into your life by contact with fake prophets is uprooted now in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

    #WordForTodayDevotional

    SUPERNATURAL GIFTS OF THE SPIRIT (7): PROPHECY

    … to another prophecy? …
    I Corinthians 12:10 (KJV)

    Prophecy is supernatural utterance in a known tongue. The Hebrew meaning of the phrase, “to prophesy” is to flow forth. It also carries with it the thought: to bubble forth like a fountain, to let drop, to lift up, to tumble forth, and to spring forth.

  • WHAT IS KINGDOM PROSPERITY?

    #WordForTodayDevotional

    Tuesday JULY 4, 2023

    WHAT IS KINGDOM PROSPERITY?

    Let them shout for joy, and be glad, that favour my righteous cause: yea, let them say continually, Let the Lord be magnified, which hath pleasure in the prosperity of his servant.
    Psalms 35:27 (KJV)

    What exactly is prosperity? Here, we are talking about the prosperity of the kingdom person which we shall henceforth refer to as kingdom prosperity. Kingdom prosperity is the prosperity of the person that is born again and ruled by the commandment of the Lord Yahushua. Yahushua HaMashiach is the head of this kingdom and His word is the rule that govern His kingdom. The prosperity that comes as a result of following the commandment of the Lord Yahushua HaMashiach is what we refer as Kingdom Prosperity. Kingdom Prosperity is the prosperity that is engendered by the Word of Yahweh. Having understood that, what then is Prosperity? The word translated prosperity in our opening text is the Hebrew word ‘shalom’ and has many shades of meaning. Shalom means completeness in number; safety, soundness in body; welfare, health; peace, quiet, tranquillity, contentment; peace, friendship (of human relationships and with Yahweh especially in covenant relationship); peace from war; and peace generally.

    Prosperity means that there is completeness in your life; that whatever you start you complete it and at the end of it, there is no lose. Prosperity means soundness in body, fit for every activity. It is a state of no sickness, disease, infirmity in the body. Prosperity means welfare that is a state of health, wealth and peace. Prosperity means a state of peace, quietness, tranquillity, and contentment of life. It is coming to that place where there is no breaking in or fear of attack or evil happening. Prosperity means having peace and friendship with both human relationships and Yahweh. It is having a covenant relationship with Yahweh. This means that you cannot be said to be in Kingdom Prosperity if you are not born again and in a covenant relationship with Yahweh through the Lord Yahushua HaMashiach.

    Prosperity means a state of peace from war. This is the reason you cannot talk about prosperity where there is no peace in the society. Prosperity entails peace from agitations of the devil and people. You can see that prosperity is not having a fat bank account, that is definitely part of it but unfortunately that is also the place people’s mind go to when prosperity is mentioned. Kingdom Prosperity is living in ‘shalom’. It is living in completeness, soundness, welfare, peace, quietness, tranquillity and contentment. It is having a covenant relationship with Yahweh which affects every other area of your life. Welcome to that realm this month!

    REMEMBER: Kingdom Prosperity is living in shalom.

    CONFESSION: I am a new creation in the Lord Yahushua HaMashiach. I have been brought into shalom. Shalom is my reality in my spirit, soul and body. I am full and complete in the Lord Yahushua HaMashiach, nothing lacking, nothing missing. Halleluyah!!!

    PROPHETIC RELEASE: From today, your life conforms to shalom in every area. I speak alignment into every area of your life that is not aligned to shalom in the name of the Lord Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

  • DIVIDENDS OF PRAISE (1): PROVOKES/PROCURES HARVESTS

    #WordForTodayDevotional

    Friday June 9, 2023

    DIVIDENDS OF PRAISE (1): PROVOKES/PROCURES HARVESTS

    5 Let the people praise thee, O God; let all the people praise thee. 6 Then shall the earth yield her increase; and God, even our own God, shall bless us. 7 God shall bless us; and all the ends of the earth shall fear him.
    Psalms 67:5-7 [KJV]

    Praise provokes the release of your harvest. Even when you are a cheerful and consistent giver, you still need praise to turn your seed into harvest. When you praise Yahweh, His blessings upon your life become inexhaustible. No matter what you do in the kingdom of Yahweh, until you have praised Him, you cannot be fruitful. Behind every prosperous life is the mystery of praise. This is because praise effectively waters the seeds you sow – your services and offerings in the kingdom. David was a mighty seed sower and was also a praising king. As a result, he became a mighty man on the earth! The more you praise Him, the more meaningful your life becomes! The quality of your life is determined by the quality of your praise. Let’s give it to Him! I’d like you to know this: Yahweh owes you nothing, for He has done all things well. Rather, you owe Him praise. And as you praise Him, you won’t need to struggle for your needs to be met any more; they will be met of their own accord. Remember that the presence of Yahweh is the environment that man was created to live in and for his life to produce fruits and harvests, he must continue to exist in the presence of Yahweh. What the soil is to the plant is what the presence of Yahweh is to the life of man. Without the presence of Yahweh we wither and die.

    Someone may ask me “but Pastor, what of those guys that don’t know the Lord but are doing well? Everything is working out for them.” Now, when you say that someone is doing well, what do you mean? You probably mean that he/she has all the money that he/she require, good houses, cars, husband/wife, children, etc. But that is not the indication that someone is doing well. That you are doing well is that you have a vital relationship with the Lord Yahushua which produces character, godliness and peace in your life. To be doing well means that you are ready to give account of your life to the Lord when you breathe your last (see Romans 14:10, 12). The Lord Yahushua says that the life of a person does not consist in the abundance of materials such a person possesses (see Luke 12:15). So real life is existence in the presence of Yahweh and praise is the price you pay for the presence of Yahweh. When that presence flows in your life, it irrigates everything in and around you unto abundance and supernatural harvests. You see, the life of a praiser springs supernatural harvests surprises, that flabbergasts both him/herself and others. That is exactly what our opening text is saying. That when you praise Yahweh, the earth yields her increase to you because the presence of Yahweh comes down to your moments and environment causing everything to produce results.

    Beloved. stop struggling. I hate struggling. Struggling is a sign that you do not know how things work. When you have the key to a lock, you don’t struggle for access. The key to supernatural harvests is abundant praise (halal). Give it to Yahweh with all you have got and see how wonders starts springing forth from your seemingly insignificant life. Shalom!

    REMEMBER: Praise provokes the Presence of Yahweh which in turn causes your earth to yield supernatural harvests for you.

    CONFESSION: I am a city set on the hill that cannot be hid. My praise makes Yahweh a home and waters my earth for supernatural harvests. I cannot be stranded because I have the key to working wonders daily. Halleluyah!

    PROPHETIC RELEASE: Your earth shall begin to yield her increase for you from today. Unfruitfulness in life and destiny is cursed in your life now in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

  • THE GOSPEL DEFINED

    #WordForTodayDevotional

    Wednesday April 5, 2023

    THE GOSPEL DEFINED

    That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
    ROMANS 10:9 (KJV)

    You have been hearing of the term “gospel” and sometimes, we may get acquainted with a word thinking that it means something only to discover that we have been wrong about the meaning we have come to ascribe to the word. The word translated as gospel in the New Testament is the Greek “evaggelion” meaning “a good message; good news” and the verb “evangelizo“ meaning “to bring or announce good news”. Both words are derived from the noun angelos meaning “messenger”. The gospel is the story that tells humanity that Yahweh has finished the work of salvation in and through HaMashiach (the Christ). The gospel is the good news that Yahweh in came into the world in the person of Yahushua HaMashiach, was born of virgin birth by the power of the Holy Spirit, died, was buried, resurrected and ascended to the right hand of the Father and that salvation and eternal life is available in His Name. In I Corinthians 15:1-4, the Apostle Paul enumerated these basic ingredients of the gospel. The gospel is the good news that in the Lord Yahushua we are not just forgiven sinners but we are now new creations with the very life of Yahweh in us (see II Corinthians 5:17, 21). In the Lord Yahushua, we are made the righteousness of Yahweh. In the Lord Yahushua, we are heirs of Yahweh and joint-heirs with HaMashiach (the Christ) (see Romans 8:17). In HaMashiach, we have the power of attorney to use the almighty name of the Lord Yahushua to reign and rule on earth (see Mark 16:17).

    The gospel is the good news that all that man lost in Adam, has been fully and completely restored to us in the Lord Yahushua HaMashiach. The gospel is the good news that though you may not be an Israelite, but in HaMashiach (the Christ) you are now the seed of Abraham with full rights to the covenant (see Galatians 3:29). The gospel is the good news that your servitude to sin, Satan and sickness was over on the cross of the Lord Yahushua and now in Him you are the lord over sin, Satan, sickness, poverty, etc (see John 19:30; 1 Peter 2:24). The gospel is the good news that there is no other name given among men by which we shall be saved but the name of the Lord Yahushua (see Act 4:12).

    What does it mean to obey the gospel? To obey the gospel means when you hear this good news that you believe it, then by faith confess that you believe that the Lord Yahushua HaMashiach came, died, was buried, rose from the dead and is at the right hand of Yahweh and that you make Him Lord and Personal Saviour of your life from that minute. Then you are baptised as part of that confession by immersion in water. When you have responded to the gospel in this way, you have obeyed it. It is important to note that this gospel is the power of Yahweh to save even the vilest of sinners. Its power can turn the life of a man 360 degrees in a split of seconds. If you have not obeyed the gospel till now, please be encouraged today to take action.

    REMEMBER: The Gospel is the power of Yahweh to save even the vilest person.

    SONG: The vilest offender who truly believes, that moment from Jesus a pardon receive. Glory be to the Lord!

    PROPHETIC RELEASE: May the power of the gospel shatter every yoke in your life and bring you to open heavens today in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

  • KNOW YAHWEH’S LEADING (5): BY VISIONS

    #WordForTodayDevotional

    Friday December 16, 2022

    KNOW YAHWEH’S LEADING (5): BY VISIONS

    And a vision appeared to Paul in the night; There stood a man of Macedonia, and prayed him, saying, Come over into Macedonia, and help us.
    Acts 16:9 (KJV)

    Vision in this context is the experience where Yahweh opens your eyes to see something while your eyes maybe open or closed. Open vision is where your physical eyes are not closed but you see into the spiritual realm. Visions can come while you are sleeping or while you are awake. Yahweh does not lead us through vision primarily. Visions come as confirmation of what Yahweh is telling us on our inside. Visions are never to lead the church. Visions are judged by the Word of Yahweh just like prophecy. The coming of the Holy Spirit sparked off an era of visionary encounters. Acts 2:17 says, ‘And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams:’

    The Lord would lead unbelievers through visions because they do not have the Holy Spirit living in them. We saw this in the life of Cornelius. Acts 10:1-3 says, ‘1 There was a certain man in Cæsarea called Cornelius, a centurion of the band called the Italian band, 2 A devout man, and one that feared God with all his house, which gave much alms to the people, and prayed to God always. 3 He saw in a vision evidently about the ninth hour of the day an angel of God coming in to him, and saying unto him, Cornelius.’ Cornelius was a devout man, but he was not born again. He did not know about Yahushua. He was a Jewish proselyte. The angel who appeared to him in this vision could not preach the gospel to him. Yahweh did not call angels to preach the gospel; El-Shaddai called men to preach the gospel. However, the angel did tell Cornelius where to send for someone who could preach the gospel to him and tell him how to be saved.

    After Paul saw that vision in our opening text, there was an inward witness that all of them seem to have agreeing that the vision is a direction from Yahweh. This is very important. Never run with any vision in which you do not have an inward witness about. Yahweh is not an author of confusion. If a vision is agitating your mind; if a vision has taken away your peace, then discard that vision. One of the ways we recognize that inward witness is the attendant peace which passes all understanding that follows. Acts 16:10 says, ‘And after he had seen the vision, immediately we endeavoured to go into Macedonia, assuredly gathering that the Lord had called us for to preach the gospel unto them.’ “Assuredly gathering” was that inward Witness. For the recreated human spirit, vision is not the primary way Yahweh leads you, however, a vision confirms the leading and sheds more light on what to expect concerning what Yahweh has already told you. Do NOT seek vision. Visions come at the discretion of the Lord. Selah!

    REMEMBER: Every vision must be judged by the Word and the Inward Witness.

    CONFESSION: My Father is committed to leading me. I do not seek visions but if the Holy Spirit deem fit to show me a vision, glory be to the Lord. Halleluyah!!!

    PROPHETIC RELEASE: I curse every spiritual blindness in your life now and I decree that you come to visions and revelations of the Lord from this day in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

  • KNOW YAHWEH’S LEADING (4): BY PROPHECY

    #WordForTodayDevotional

    Thursday December 15, 2022

    KNOW YAHWEH’S LEADING (4): BY PROPHECY

    And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers;
    Ephesians 4:11 (KJV)

    There is a spiritual gift of prophecy (see I Corinthians 12:10) and there is the office of the prophet or the ministry gift of the prophet. The spiritual gift of Prophecy is simply speaking to exhort the brethren. It does not involve foretelling. I Corinthians 14:3 says, ‘But he that prophesieth speaketh unto men to edification, and exhortation, and comfort.’ Anyone that is filled with the Holy Spirit with the evidence of speaking in tongues can be used to prophesy. Apostle Paul encouraged believers to desire the gift of prophecy (see I Corinthians 14:1). Then we have the office or ministry of the prophet. For one to function in the office of the prophet, he would have to have the gift of discerning of Spirit, The gift of the Word of Knowledge, the gift of the Word of Wisdom and the gift of prophecy at work in his life. The ministry of the prophet involves foretelling. Prophecy in whatever form is not the primary way Yahweh leads in the New Testament. Prophecy is only to confirm what the Lord has already told you by the inward witness. The Lord didn’t place prophets in the New Testament to lead believers.

    There is a difference between the Old Testament saints and the New Testament saints. While in the Old Testament, prophets were Yahweh’s consulting centres. Anyone that wants to know the will of Adonai would go to consult the prophet. This is because the people did not have the Holy Spirit. In the Old Testament, there are three people that are anointed to stand in their various offices – The King, the Priest and the Prophet. The prophet hears from Yahweh and relates to the people. This has changed in the New Testament. In the New Testament, the Holy Spirit has fallen on the people, now living in their recreated human spirits. The Holy Spirit now leads the people through the Inward Witness. So you are no more to go to the Prophet to hear from Yahweh for you. The primary way Yahweh speaks to you now is by the inward witness of the Holy Spirit. The New Testament prophet can confirm the Word that the Lord already gave you by the Inward Witness.

    Pa Hagin told of an experience that happened to him along this line. He knew a young man in his church that he has an inward witness that Yahweh was calling the young man to the ministry. But he never did tell him a word. But on a particular Sunday evening service as they were praying around the alter; he would go round to pray upon the members as the Holy Spirit would lead him. He came upon this young man and these words came out of his mouth, “This is a confirmation of what I said to you at 3 o’clock this afternoon as you were praying down in the storm cellar. You asked for a confirmation and this is it. That was Me speaking to you.” After the service Pa Hagin checked on the young man to know if he was praying down the storm cellar this afternoon and he confirmed it. So prophets are to confirm what Yahweh has already told you. Shalom!

    REMEMBER: Prophecy should confirm what you already received by the inward witness.

    CONFESSION: My Father talks to me in His Word and by the Inward Witness. I do not seek to hear Him from prophecy as the way He is leading me, rather, prophecy confirms what He already told me. Glory!!!

    PROPHETIC RELEASE: Every evil seed that has been sown into your life by contact with fake prophets is uprooted now in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

  • THE HOLY SPIRIT SPEAKS

    #WordForTodayDevotional

    Saturday December 3, 2022

    THE HOLY SPIRIT SPEAKS

    I have not spoken in secret, in a dark place of the earth: I said not unto the seed of Jacob, Seek ye me in vain: I the Lord speak righteousness, I declare things that are right.
    Isaiah 45:19 (KJV)

    We serve a speaking God. Yahweh said in Number 12:8 concerning Moses, ‘With him will I speak mouth to mouth, even apparently, and not in dark speeches; and the similitude of the Lord shall he behold:’ This Month you must be convinced beyond a shadow of doubt that the Yahweh that you serve speaks. Moses went to the mountain for 40 days fellowshipping with Yahweh and He was giving us hint of their communication when He said that He spoke with Moses mouth to mouth. I want you to crave that order of communion with your heavenly Father. If it happened to Moses, then it can and should happen to you. Yahweh Speaks and He desires to speak with you mouth to mouth. Whatever is written is written for our admonition (see I Corinthians 10:11). In this month, we are going to learn how Yahweh speaks to us and how He told us to seek His direction.

    Yahweh is a spirit and He speaks in the spirit (see John 4:23-24). This is how the prophets heard Yahweh. As the Holy Spirit of Yahweh moved, these men and women heard Him in the spirit and spoke out what they heard (see II Peter 1:21). In the course of the month, we shall see that the voice of Yahweh which is heard in the spirit can seem so audible and loud to you that you would think that people around heard it. It happened to Saul on the road to Damascus. Acts 22:7 says, ‘And they that were with me saw indeed the light, and were afraid; but they heard not the voice of him that spake to me.’ The voice that spoke to Saul of Tarsus was so loud and audible to him but to his amazement, those folks with him heard nothing. When Yahweh speaks, He speaks in the spirit which if He opens your spiritual ears to hear that voice, would be so audible to you that you would think that folks close to you heard it.

    Even though Yahweh speaks, we are not to seek to hear the voice of Yahweh because it could expose the untrained to the voices in the spiritual realms that are not of Yahweh. We are going to see that the primary way Yahweh leads us is through the inward witness and that is what as a Believers in HaMashiach you should seek to receive concerning any matter you are looking up to Yahweh for direction. Then as you train your human spirit in the Word, you would be able to decipher between the voice of the Holy Spirit and the voice of either your flesh or the devil. There are voices in the spiritual realm, don’t seek voices, it could lead you to being accommodated by Satan’s deception. Remember, Satan has no power but the power of deception. Satan can speak to you in your spirit and you would think it is Yahweh and because you really heard it, you may not be easily persuaded that it is not of Yahweh. So caution, don’t seek voices. Seek to receive a witness in your spirit in line with the Word of Yahweh. Shalom!

    REMEMBER: Our God Yahweh we serve speaks.

    CONFESSION: This month of December shall favour me in all areas. I shall be trained to hear and recognize the voice of Yahweh. I believe that my God speaks and that He wants to speak to me. My ears opens to hear Him now! Halleluyah!!!

    PROPHETIC RELEASE: The Lord shall crown this end of the year for you with His goodness. May He give you an encounter with His voice this season in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!
