BEING
EXTRAORDINARY
Being extraordinary is experienced when
we love God more than life itself.
Mark 12:30 AMP
And you shall love the Lord your God
out of and with your whole heart and out of and with all your soul
(your life) and out of and with all your mind (with your faculty of
thought and your moral understanding) and out of and with all your
strength. This is the first and principal commandment.
Who is God? He is the Blessed Trinity...Father, Son and Holy
Spirit.
What is the benefit of believing God
and loving Him?
Answer: He makes provision for
you to be clothed with Truth, Life and
the Holy Spirit in an extraordinary and superabundant way.
Thank God for the command of the Lord as revealed in Mark 12:30 above.
God is a foundation builder! The scriptures reveal a
comprehensive awesome God who is without limit! His love is
fathomless!
Ephesians 3:14-19 NKJV
For this reason I bow my knees to the
Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,
15 from whom
the whole family in heaven and earth is named,
16 that He
would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be
strengthened with might through His Spirit in the inner man,
17 that Christ
may dwell in your hearts through faith; that you, being rooted and
grounded in love,
18 may be able
to comprehend with all the saints what is the width and length and
depth and height --
19 to know the
love of Christ which passes knowledge; that you may be filled with all
the fullness of God.
God
is a Good God!
He always wants
to do special extraordinary things in your life!
Jesus gave leaders
to equip the saints in spiritual knowledge and understanding to build
them into the fullness of Christ.
Ephesians 4:13 AMP
...the measure of
the stature of the fullness of the Christ and the completeness found in
Him.
Church Leaders have the
responsibility to lead the army of God.
Each believer has a divine destiny in the kingdom work on earth.
The City of Lights ministry is endowed with God's plan for those
who are inspired to give of time, energy and action to be built
extraordinarily on His divine foundation...
the GOOD NEWS that Jesus Christ is God's
Son
and the LIGHT to the world.
We must know the
substances and the
principles of Light in order to walk fully in God.
Humbly and to this knowledge, we dedicate this Issue of the Prophetic
Voice Newsletter to God and to you...
Your Future is
decided by whose voice you choose to believe.
You are going to make decisions about
this Letter.
What kind of decisions will you make?
● Will you seek God for
His abundant provisions?
● Will you put
limitations within your spiritual growth believing that God
has given
less than the Scriptures generously declare?
● Will you be different?
To be extraordinary demands that you are different.
● Will you
conform to the principles of God or to the dictates of men?
● Will you be
motivated to walk in the Light of Truth, Life & the Spirit?
●
Will you respond to the call of God and exercise your will to walk
in the deeper realms of the Kingdom of Heaven?
Your decisions to these questions will be demonstrated in the manner
that Smith Wigglesworth liked to teach...
"The ACT produces the FACT."
This Letter is
an
indepth study that can immensely impact your life!
● You will elect to be different.
● You will elect to be extraordinary.
● You will elect to trust God and obey His
commands.
● You will
elect to trust God and experience the extraordinary
supernatural blessed life in Pentecost.
OR
● You will
elect to choose another way of thought and action.
God will not impose His will upon
anyone.
He made each of His created beings as
free will agents.
God is looking for
humble hearts and spirits who are hungry and thirsty
for His Light of Truth, Life and Spirit.
Won't you join
us now in this Prophetic Letter, as we reach deep into a study
of revelations of God and the provisions He has made for us to be
extraordinary beings?
In the 14th Chapter and 12th verse of
John, Jesus said to His disciples,
"Greater
Works than these [you] will do..."
What was His perspective on these Words?
Jesus knew that He had chosen the right
disciples to accomplish these Greater Works. We know this
to be true due to the fact that Jesus had the assurance of His
Father. Also, Jesus had already established the
foundational principles of the command of Faith!
He
believed
all His Father showed Him.
In all these things, He demonstrated
the
pattern of the Kingdom in which His church would function.
(Do
you believe the Scriptures are for you to exercise, today?)
With such full demonstrations and confirmations of the works that the
Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit have provided for mankind through
both Testaments in the Holy Bible, why is it that the church continues
to be fragmented into an estimated 38,000+ denominations as well as
other axillary organizations that clearly do not accept and
believe the full
Gospel is for mankind, today? Jesus was sent to reveal Father God
and teach His Kingdom had come to earth to open the way for
reconciliation
of mankind back to a personal relationship with God, the Blessed
Trinity.
John 5:19-21 AMP
I assure you, most solemnly I tell
you, the Son is able to do nothing of Himself (of His own accord); but
He is able to do only what He sees the Father doing, for whatever the
Father does is what the Son does in the same way [in His turn].
20 The Father
dearly loves the Son and discloses to (shows) Him everything that He
Himself does. And He will disclose to Him (let Him see) greater things
yet than these, so that you may marvel and be full of wonder and
astonishment.
21 Just as the
Father raises up the dead and gives them life [makes them live on],
even so the Son also gives life to whomever He wills and is pleased to
give it.
Father God executes every promise and every prophetic word through the
Holy Spirit. After Jesus was resurrected, He presented Himself to
the disciples and worked with them during the days before being
received up into heaven in "the Ascension."
In one of His appearances with the disciples, He releases the
Command of Faith upon them. Let's look at the recording of this
event:
Mark
16:14-20 NKJV
Later He appeared to the eleven as
they sat at the table; and He rebuked their unbelief and hardness of
heart, because they did not believe those who had seen Him after He had
risen.
15 And He said to them, "Go into all the world and preach the
gospel to every creature.
16 He who believes
and is baptized will be
saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned.
17 And these signs
will follow those who believe: In My name they will cast out
demons;
they will speak with new tongues;
18 they will take up serpents; and if
they drink anything deadly,
it will by no means hurt them; they will
lay hands on the sick,
and they will recover.
Christ Ascends to
God's Right Hand
as His apostolic mission on earth is completed.
19 So then, after
the Lord had spoken to them, He was received up into heaven, and sat
down at the right hand of God.
20 And they went
out and preached everywhere, the Lord working with them and
confirming
the word through the accompanying signs. Amen.
The Father crowned Him with glory as King
of all things and the promised Holy Spirit was poured out
on the 120 waiting in the upper room.
The "crowning ceremony" in Heaven by the Father upon the Son was the
fulfilling of God's promise of the
Holy Spirit (Holy Ghost).
Jesus had promised the disciples of the fulfillment
of sending the Comforter, the Spirit of Truth.
He was sent and was poured out in might and fire on
The
Day of
Pentecost!
The Day of Pentecost was the most extraordinary
event that the early
believers had experienced without the earthly presence of Jesus in
their midst.
The
status of being extraordinary
manifests when we obey the commands of God!
What did Jesus command and confirm in
Mark
16:14-20 ?
► you
will cast out demons
► you will speak with new
tongues
► you will take up serpents
► if you drink anything deadly
it will have no adverse effect
► you will lay hands on the
sick--- they will recover
How can these things be true?
The Lord works with us through
the authority of His Name and
authority of the power
manifested in the Holy Ghost and fire.
To preach the Gospel to the
entire world and to exercise God's
commands of the Law of the
Spirit are the greater works of which Jesus
said we would do. They
are spiritual works! They all operate in Faith.
We need to have the God of Truth, the Spirit of Truth, to teach us
these things of divine origin. They operate in the
Spirit realm!
Jesus rebuked His disciples for their unbelief that He was resurrected.
To learn of the Spirit realm
of greater Works requires FAITH.
"And these signs
will follow those who BELIEVE!"
Faith operates
through action. "Now faith is the substance of things hoped for,
the evidence of things not seen." (Heb 11:1)
To hope for something is an action that leads to motivation to deeply
believe and desire that you have it. Substance is the manifested
result of
that hope. Jesus manifested the will of the Father in all
things through
faith. He came to earth to reveal the faith of the Father in His
sovereign plan for man. Jesus came to establish God
living in our midst
as man and God. The man part was His body, soul and spirit.
The God part was the anointing presence of God the Holy Spirit
abiding in and upon the Son of God without limitation of measure.
It is God's desire that you have knowledge and understanding of the
divine things of the Kingdom of Heaven. Father God wants you to
have complete understanding of Him as one God in three
persons.
God wants you to
"wake up"---become spiritually informed--- to the Words of the
Master. Jesus said, He would not desert you, but
would come to you by sending the Spirit of Truth. He said, "Greater Works"
than these [you] will do, because He was
going to the Father. (John 14:12)
The measure of the Spirit of Truth, the Holy Spirit, that anointed Jesus
and that is promised to anoint you is spiritually understood in
John 16:13-15 AMP
But when He, the Spirit of Truth (the
Truth-giving Spirit) comes, He will guide you into all the Truth (the
whole, full Truth). For He will not speak His own message [on His own
authority]; but He will tell whatever He hears [from the Father; He
will give the message that has been given to Him], and He will announce
and declare to you the things that are to come [that will happen in the
future].
14 He will
honor and glorify Me, because He will take of (receive, draw upon) what
is Mine and will reveal (declare, disclose, transmit) it to you.
15 Everything
that the Father has is Mine. That is what I meant when I said that He
[the Spirit] will take the things that are Mine and will reveal
(declare, disclose, transmit) it to you.
The measure of the Holy Ghost you receive is inspiration,
enlightenment, illumination, revelation, edification, manifestation,
and operation.
God the Holy Spirit, will tell you whatever He hears from Heaven's
throne
room. When you come into fullness of the Holy Spirit, you are in
perfect order, built up on spiritual foundations of divine Truth.
What all of us need to desire is more of the Holy Spirit filling us,
working
in us, working through us and flowing out of us!
John the Baptist declares
John 3:33-34 AMP
33 Whoever receives His (John the
baptizer's) testimony has set his seal of approval to this: God is
true. [That man has definitely certified, acknowledged, declared once
and for all, and is himself assured that it is divine truth that God
cannot lie].
34 For since
He Whom God has sent speaks the words of God [proclaims God's own
message], God does not give Him His Spirit sparingly or by measure, but
boundless
is the gift God makes of His Spirit!
Here is a scriptural witness of agreement:
Luke 11:13 AMP
...how much more will your heavenly
Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask and continue to ask
Him!
Jesus full of the Holy Ghost declares in a Word of Wisdom the prophetic
decree: John 7:38-40 AMP
38 He who
believes in Me [who cleaves to and trusts in and relies on Me] as the
Scripture has said, From his innermost being shall flow [continuously]
springs and rivers of living water.
39 But He was
speaking here of the Spirit, Whom those who believed (trusted, had
faith) in Him were afterward to receive. For the [Holy] Spirit had not
yet been given, because Jesus was not yet glorified (raised to honor).
40 Listening
to those words, some of the multitude said,
This is certainly and
beyond doubt the Prophet!
Jesus was prophesying the coming event of the Day of Pentecost.
The
heavens would open by mighty wind (dunamis power likened to a dynamite
explosion) in the most awesome extraordinary outpouring of the
Holy Ghost as tongues of fire and empower the BELIEVERS to speak
and demonstrate the Good News of Mark 16:14-20
Believers exercise
divine Faith.
Matt 21:21-22 AMP
21 And Jesus answered them, Truly I
say to you, if you have faith
(a firm relying trust) and do not doubt, ...
22 And
whatever you ask for in prayer, having faith and [really] believing,
you will receive.
Baptism of the Holy
Ghost
empowers you to walk in the gifts of the Spirit;
to walk in divine faith and experience Kingdom works!
With spiritual
knowledge and understanding, you are built upon the foundational
principles of the prophets and the apostles with Jesus as
the
anchoring cornerstone?
Foundational knowledge and understanding of the kingdom
Prophesying is one of the spiritual gifts
to be greatly desired.
To prophesy spiritually builds up the church.
Speaking in unknown tongues is also an important spiritual gift.
You build your spirit in speaking to God in unknown tongues.
Each have important roles in you spiritual development.
John the Baptist was a prophet, also.
John proclaimed and declared the
extraordinary things of God
by the Spirit as given utterance:
Matthew 3:11
AMP
He Who is coming
after me is mightier than I...
...He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire.
These are words of edification for God's born again believers!
God wants you to be on fire so that you will speak as an oracle of God!
He has placed every "building block" you need in its proper place for
your
spiritual growth. He has provided foundations of Truth,
Life and Spirit that everyone who sees and hears you will know they
too, can experience the Light of the Kingdom Life after the order of
the
Spirit!
We live in days when
Pentecost is very important!
In this day and
hour, it is important like the feast of Passover!
● Passover is God's "appointed time" to
deliver His people .
All sinners need the Savior, Jesus Christ who is the Passover
Lamb.
He is mankind's deliverer from sin and from the life of darkness and
evil.
All need to come to repentance and experience the new birth of the
Spirit!
● Pentecost is the "appointed time" when
the heavens
are open.
In October 2007, the Holy Ghost spoke to me suddenly in an unusual moment. I was caught
in stride as I entered our kitchen and glanced out the kitchen
window. Emphatically and with great exclamation,
He said, "The
heavens are open!"
This experience has been documented and shared with many others
as prophetic words of knowledge prepared the church for the year of
2008, "new beginnings." It has been a year of extraordinary
changes!
The first time in the New Testament that we see a word that means
the "heavens are open" is in the account of Mark 1:10 at the baptism
of Jesus. It is the Greek word schizo
that means "open or fold, tear violently or to
rend." In Mark 1:10, the heavens are "torn open"
and the Spirit descends as a dove. In interpreting the Word of
God,
a rule of first mention sets a rule for interpreting the same word in
other passages.
Let us go back
in time to study the events that mark the Day of Pentecost
so that we can deeply appreciate what God has done for us, His people.
When the
children of Israel were rescued out of Egypt in the Exodus, they were
eventually brought to the base of Mount Sinai.
Recall that they all came out of Egypt healed and possessed the wealth
of Egypt's silver and gold. We know by the Scriptures that God
had a plan for the isolation of His people to a desert location.
They would learn of God and begin to be molded into God's spiritual and
natural family on earth. It would be a time of preparation for the
eventual plan of salvation to replace the Law of Sin and Death through
the Law of the Spirit of grace by faith. The order of worship
of the wilderness tabernacle would pattern the cross, the coming and
the initial advent of God's Son to redeem
all mankind.
God brought His people into the desert. This environment required
supernatural and extraordinary provisions to sustain three million
souls. The desert experience opens us to a
study of Moses before
the Exodus and to Jesus Christ in the 40 day wilderness
experience. Symbolically, we too, start life in a spiritual
desert experience at birth. There are awesome spiritual principles to
understand
in each of these recordings. We will study them in future
Letters. The main point to be made here is
that God always has a plan and a purpose for the actions He takes and
the
revelations He shares!
Here is the very first account of God opening
the heavens to reveal Himself to His divine nation in the Old
Testament...
Exodus 19:16-23 AMP
16 The third morning
there were thunders and lightnings, and a thick cloud upon the
mountain, and a very loud trumpet blast, so that all the people in the
camp trembled.
17 Then Moses
brought the people from the camp to meet God, and they
stood at the foot of the mountain.
18 Mount Sinai
was wrapped in smoke, for the Lord descended upon it in
fire; its smoke ascended like that of a furnace, and the whole mountain
quaked greatly.
19 As the
trumpet blast grew louder and louder, Moses spoke and God
answered him with a voice. [Deut 4:12.]
20 The Lord
came down upon Mount Sinai to the top of the mountain, and
the Lord called Moses to the top of the mountain,
and Moses went
up.
21 The Lord
said to Moses, Go down and warn the people, lest they break
through to the Lord to gaze and many of them perish.
22 And also
let the priests, who come near to the Lord, sanctify (set
apart) themselves [for God], lest the Lord break forth against them.
23 And Moses
said to the Lord, The people cannot come up to Mount
Sinai, for You Yourself charged us, saying, Set bounds about the
mountain and sanctify it [set it apart for God].
What an awesome and extraordinary account of God opening the heavens
and manifesting himself on the mountain! The heavens were torn
with smoke, and fire like a gigantic furnace! Can you imagine
such a sight? The whole mountain was shaken. The
description is like the eruption of a volcano! You know that
people had a challenge standing on their feet. The Holy Ghost
causes the same effects
when He falls on a gathering of people!
I was in Cuba in 1995 as a missionary and on the day before Easter,
in
that communistic country which persecutes God's people, the Holy Ghost
came into a gathering of some 300 people as a mighty wind. The heavens
were "torn open" and everyone fell off their feet like domino's stacked
in rows.
Flesh was sprawling on the floor everywhere. It was the most
humbling experience I ever had. It was awesome! It was a
day of Pentecost experience on the Eve of the resurrection celebration!
The record of the mission is not
anything like you could
imagine.
It is written under the anointing and
inspiration of the
Holy Spirit and addresses spiritual insights that only God can
administer through an individual.

When God opens the heavens everything
in the physical environment,
emotional environment and spiritual environment shakes!
God is a mighty God and there is nothing less than extraordinary in all
that He does. This means that when He touches anything or anyone,
there is not going to be a situation whereby the thing or event
does not remain unchanged! God's presence changes
everything! When
the Holy Ghost manifests, flesh and blood are not going to be unscathed!
There will be an extraordinary event!
Many try to limit the manifestations or
control His works through
the belief that "if it is not written in specific details in the Bible,
then it cannot be of God." Who is to judge God and the intent of
His acts?
You should read the whole chapter of Job
38.
Job
38:2-10
2 Who is this that
darkens counsel by words without knowledge?
3 Gird up now your loins like a man, and I will demand of you, and you
declare to Me.
4 Where were you when I laid the foundation of the earth? Declare to
Me, if you have and know understanding.
5 Who determined the measures of the earth, if you know? Or who
stretched the measuring line upon it?
6 Upon what were the foundations of it fastened, or who laid its
cornerstone,
7 When the morning stars sang together and all the sons of God shouted
for joy?
8 Or who shut up the sea with doors when it broke forth and issued out
of the womb?--
9 When I made the clouds the garment of it, and thick darkness a
swaddling band for it,
10 And marked for it My appointed boundary and set bars and doors,
Many do not believe what God declares and demonstrate in His Holy
Word. They rationalize the events as being given only for a
specific event or time and do not grasp the reality of God's Acts being
possible for today.
Some believe in the power and endowment of the Holy Ghost manifesting
in "unknown tongues." Then, there are those who will
exercise faith for healing and those who have also been delivered from
carnal oppressions and addictions. These same individuals when
hearing others baptized in the Holy Ghost and fire with evidence of
speaking in tongues denounce the evidence as an act of the devil and
deny God's sovereign act of the gift and the baptism.
Are we going to believe opinions or
believe God?
1 Corinthians 14:2 AMP
For one who speaks in an [unknown]
tongue speaks not to men
but to God,..
because in the [Holy] Spirit he utters secret truths and hidden things
[not obvious to the understanding].
1
Corinthians 14:4
4 He who speaks in a [strange] tongue
edifies and improves himself...
God wants you to
enter into the promises of God! It is your inheritance as a part
of your gift of salvation. We are not to glory in the gift of the
baptism in the Holy Ghost, but glorify the Giver, whom the Holy Spirit
has come to reveal to us, the Lord Jesus Christ.
It seems that the Gospel is robbed of its divine glory when the
marvelous truth of the baptism of the Holy Spirit is overlooked.
Acts 10:45-46 NKJV
45 And those of the circumcision who
believed were astonished, as many as came with Peter, because the gift
of the Holy Spirit had been poured out on the Gentiles also.
46 For they
heard them speak with tongues and magnify God.
To be saved is awesomely wonderful; to be a new creation
{2Cor. 5:17}, to have "passed from
death to life" {1 John 7:38},
to have the witness of the Spirit that you are born
of God {Rom. 8:16} this is unspeakably precious! But, Jesus
gave us the well of salvation bubbling up inside of us. We need
to experience the extraordinary flow of "rivers of living water" {John
7:38}.
John 7:38-39 AMP
38 He who believes in Me [who cleaves
to and trusts in and relies on Me] as the Scripture has said, From his
innermost being shall flow [continuously] springs and rivers of living
water.
39 But He was
speaking here of the Spirit, Whom those who believed (trusted, had
faith) in Him were afterward to receive. For the [Holy] Spirit had not
yet been given, because Jesus was not yet glorified (raised to honor).
The Day of Pentecost had not yet come. It would be 10 days until
the outpouring of the manifested Holy Spirit! The Lord wants us
to be filled with the Spirit, to have the
manifestation of the presence of His Spirit, the manifestation that is
indeed given "for the profit of
all"
{1 Cor. 12:7}. The Lord wants us to be
mouthpieces
and to speak as the very "oracles of God" {1 Pet. 4:11}. His
anointing Presence compels you to speak of the Good News!
The Gospel is very clear on this extraordinary spiritual inheritance
that God has promised and continues to pour out on those who desire to
believe Him. There are many scriptural witnesses in the Word of God to
reveal this
endowment
of spiritual power for our lives.
We know from the account of what took place at Cornelius's household
that when the Holy Spirit fell, "they
heard them speak with tongues and magnify God" {Acts
10:46}. Many think that God makes a distinction between those
living
in the 21st century and those who lived in the 1st century
church. But there is no scripture for this! When anyone
receives the gift of the Holy Spirit, their Day of Pentecost,
the Lord has fulfilled His promise of what John the Baptist
declared:
Matthew 3:11 AMP
I indeed
baptize you in (with) water because of repentance [that is, because of
your changing your minds for the better, heartily amending your ways,
with abhorrence of your past sins]. But He Who is coming after me is
mightier than I, Whose sandals I am not worthy or fit to take off or
carry; He
will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire.
Have
you had your Day of Pentecost?
He has
promised it.
God is willing and able to baptize you,
infilling you with the power and fire of the Holy Ghost, to fulfill His
promises to you as a child who is in right standing with Him and is
legally qualified to all spiritual inheritances!
He is not a man that He should lie.
Hebrews 6:17-18 NKJV
Thus
God, determining to show more abundantly to the heirs of promise the
immutability of His counsel, confirmed it by an oath,
18 that by two
immutable things, in which it is impossible for God to lie, we might
have strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold of the
hope set before us.
Inheritances are redeemable upon the death of someone.
Jesus paid the price
for all your inheritances and they are available
to those who believe they are real and desire to receive them!
When the Holy Ghost
fills the atmosphere with His localized presence,
flesh will have a response beyond the thoughts and control of
men. The baptism is real!...
so are the myriads of other
manifestations!
God
is a
God of Faith!
He dwells in the
unseen and manifests those things hoped for
into the world of the seen through faith! He has His own
agenda
and He honors an humble spirit, a contrite heart and acts of faith
exercised in His order and by His Spirit.
The people at Mount Sinai thought they wanted to see God.
God is
not in the gazing business. He is into the faith and action.
Read the account of Moses Exodus. 33;18-23 and His request
to meet with
God to see His
glory.
Here
is Exodus 33:18-20 AMP
18 And Moses said, I beseech You,
show me Your glory.
19 And God
said, I will make all My goodness pass before you,
and I will proclaim
My name, THE LORD, before you; for I will be gracious to whom I will be
gracious, and will show mercy and loving-kindness on whom I will show
mercy and loving-kindness.
[Rom 9:15,16.]
20 But, He
said, You can not see My face, for no man shall see Me and live.
The only way to know God the Blessed Trinity is through
relationship. Not everyone wants a personal relationship with Jesus
Christ, the Lord of the manifested Word of God. Strangely, most
of the church does not want the endued power and fire of the Holy
Spirit...
Without relationship there is no power or fire. It is Jesus, who
baptizes with the Holy Ghost and fire!
There are 39 books of the Old Testament that reveal great detail
that we might know God by truth, life and spirit.
Can you imagine a
God of
Fire?
Can you imagine a God without fire?
Our God is a consuming fire!
We have entered the
days
of consuming fire of the Holy Spirit!
However, most of
God's 21st century church are like the people who came
out of Egypt with the deliverer, Moses.
Look at how they are
recorded... the
people stood afar off,
Exodus 20:18-22 AMP
18 Now all the people perceived the
thunderings and the lightnings and the noise of the trumpet and the
smoking mountain, and as [they] looked they trembled with fear and fell
back and stood afar off.
19 And they
said to Moses, You speak to us and we will listen, but let not God
speak to us, lest we die.
20 And Moses
said to the people, Fear not; for God has come to prove you, so that
the [reverential] fear of Him may be before you, that you may not sin.
21 And the
people stood afar off, but Moses drew near to the thick darkness where
God was.
22 And the
Lord said to Moses, Thus shall you say to the Israelites, You have seen
for yourselves that I have talked with you from heaven.
When the heavens
are open, God's purpose is to talk with us!
He wants to prove us that we may not sin.
He is an
extraordinary Person when manifesting as the Holy Spirit
of Whom
demonstrates Himself in 7-fold spiritual ways.

God wants
to talk with us and He does so as one God in three
Persons!
There are those who want to take issue with God's Word and declare that
there is only one person manifested as the one God and that is Jesus
Christ alone. Please set aside time to study the work within the
School of the
Prophetic Voice at the following link:
The
study will bless you and
give you knowledge which will wonderfully build your understanding of
the Godhead.
The knowledge will motivate you to new thoughts to be transformed
into the work of the Kingdom of Heaven.
Please continue to go deeper with me.
God wants to say some
more things to us in this Letter that is deeply relevant to our
maturing in
Christ. God's work is
"speak!"
The heavens are
open!
Again, let us
examine the attitude and the spiritual posturing of the people God had
delivered.
God had saved His children from the evil empire of Pharaoh's Egypt.
These people were slaves to hardened taskmasters. They were in
bondage to ways of darkness and an evil world for nearly 400
years.
Remember that God had changed Jacob's name to Israel.
The nation of God was routed to Egypt through the persecution of
Joseph due to his brothers' jealousies of Joseph's prophetic dreams and
the favor he had with his father, Jacob. His brothers put him in
a dry well and left him to die. A caravan of traders found him.
Joseph was sold into slavery to an Egyptian, an officer of Pharaoh, the
captain and chief executioner of the [royal] guard.
Potipher's wife falsely accused Joseph of having intent to have sex
with her
and he was
sentenced to prison.
Most of you
know the recorded account of Joseph's life.
Joseph interpreted two prophetic dreams for Pharaoh.
Pharaoh's response was:
Genesis 41:38-39 AMP
38 And Pharaoh said to his servants,
Can we find this man's equal,
a man in whom is the
spirit of God?
39 And Pharaoh
said to Joseph, Forasmuch as [your] God has shown you all this, there
is nobody as intelligent and discreet and understanding and wise as you
are.
Genesis
41:46
Joseph [who
had been in Egypt thirteen years] was thirty years old when he stood
before Pharaoh king of Egypt. Joseph went out from the presence of
Pharaoh and went [about his duties] through all the land of Egypt.
Joseph had the
Spirit of God abiding with him.
The empowerment of
the Holy Spirit makes an individual different!
He makes us extraordinary!
To be different is
not a popular attribute. But, it is
the way of God.
To walk in righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Ghost is walking a
different walk and talking a different talk than what the people of the
world do. Walking in the Spirit is a personal life
style choice.
One must make a decision and build relationship with God to be
supernaturally extraordinary! There are biographies of people who
did extraordinary things all through history. However, we are
focused on being extraordinary in the Kingdom of Heaven on earth.
You are encouraged to read the full account of how the nation of Israel
was prepared to move to Egypt in Genesis 37 thru 46.
Gen 46:26-27 AMP
All the persons who came with Jacob
into Egypt--who were his own offspring, not counting the wives of
Jacob's sons--were sixty-six persons all told.
27 And the
sons of Joseph, who were born to him in Egypt, were two persons. All
the persons of the house of Jacob [including Joseph and Jacob himself],
who came into Egypt, were seventy.
(Note: 7, 70, 700, or 7000 represent God's
perfect order in the topic of record.)
There was a very short
period of time that Israel had favor by the Egyptians. They had
the favor of God for the complete 430 years in
Egypt. When Joseph and the then reigning Pharaoh died, new
leadership came and with it came jealousy and greed resulting in
persecution and bondage.
The church is in
a very delicate position in these days of rapid change. The
elevation of leaders who do not walk in righteousness and truth can
bring Christ's church in America into great persecution and
bondage. Apathy for the ways and provisions of God will
accelerate the tribulation and hardship process.
It is time for God's people to be quicken (made alive) by the Spirit
and receive the full provisions of God's Word, His presence and plan.
The Scriptures record that God heard the nation of Israel's cries and
made a way for their salvation, their rescue! Now, in our
study, we
hear their voices which expresses their hearts. They had been
invited to meet God. Even with all the provisions they possessed
including God's providential
detailed care, they moved away from the very One who loved them and
cared about
all their needs. They wanted the blessings, but did not
want to tend to the guiding principles that would keep them healthy and
make them into an extraordinary nation.
They did not want a close
relationship with God.
They did not want His desires and commands
of Light for their daily lives. See the study Ministers
on Fire for an overview of God's Laws of Light. The Bible
proves out their attitudes toward God in that
they are recorded as rebellious, heard-hearted and stiffnecked
people. They
were willing to let God deliver them from Egypt but they were not
willing to let God deliver Egypt out of their hearts and life styles.
We can see these same attitudes and spiritual posturing brought into
the church today regardless of the things God has done for His
people. Just as ancient
Israel had grown legalistic over many generations, and disregarded the
Law of
Sin and Death given to Moses, the church of this century has grown
legalistic and traditional in its doctrines and practices and aligns
with the ways of the world instead of moving into relationship with
God, the Holy Spirit. In fact, most of the church ridicules the
working of the Holy Ghost.
To understand and
experience "open heavens,"
We need to understand Pentecost.
We need
to have an open mind, heart and spirit to the things that God desires
to accomplish with the church and with each of our lives.
When most Christians think about Pentecost, they think about the
outpouring of Acts chapter two. This brings us to an example of
another extraordinary way in which God showed Himself to His people.
Consider what the traditional applications of those coming to
Jerusalem experienced. For our deeper understanding of the times
and Jewish events that were in play at the Day of Pentecost...
Pentecost
did
not begin in Acts chapter two.
Pentecost
was a
Biblical event,
a Feast instituted by God in the Old
Testament.
The "Feast of Pentecost" is described in
Leviticus 23:15-16,
Numbers
28:26-31, and Deuteronomy 16:9-12.
Let us get a hold of
the following so we can better understand Acts 2
and the spiritual season we are experiencing today!! The
Israelites were told, "From the Feast of
Passover" count off seven weeks (forty-nine days) then on the fiftieth
day have a festival before the Lord." The world is not the only
people who are to have parties!
The objectivity of the
celebration is the principle difference which is best expressed as
celebrations of
darkness compared to celebrations of light. God is all about
purposes. In the Hebrew the Feast of Pentecost is called Shavot which means "feast of
weeks.' In the New Testament Greek, fifty days is
called Pentecost. It was 50 days from the time of the Passover
Feast precluding the crucifixion of the Lord to the outpouring of the
Holy
Ghost in celebration of Heavens newly crowned King!
We do not have to
wait to have a Day of Pentecost!
The hard working farmers of ancient Israel worked week after week
to
prepare their soil and to plant seeds in hope of a harvest.
They
had hope, but had no way to make the earth produce.
If the Lord
did not open the heavens for a physical rain, they would
not have a
harvest of crops. As they trusted him, God would open up the
windows of heaven and rain would pour forth. With their faith
fixed on God, a harvest would be brought forth. We can see that
they recognized the physical provision of God's grace. We find
that the father of the house each Sabbath would lift a freshly
baked loaf of bread before the Lord and bless God with thanksgiving for
His bountiful provisions.
The Holy Bible is our "loaf of bread"... Jesus is the Bread of Life!
If God does not pour out His Spirit upon people, then there is no
"rain"
to produce a harvest. The "rain of the spirit" brings increase in
touching the hearts and minds of people.
Also, from the first sheaf of each new harvest, the Jews would
bring
a thanksgiving offering to the temple. With it they would
acknowledge that God had opened the heavens to bring forth their bread
from the earth. This was a praise offering...offered by faith as
well.
It was
offered before the full harvest was gathered.
This offering was
brought to God at Pentecost!
The initial practice
of Pentecost was a celebration of God's
provision!
How many Christians do you know that celebrate in this fashion?
Who do you know who actually has a party to celebrate the Lord's
provisions and centers the party on giving offerings to the work of
God? This question does not entail what a particular body
of believers may do in their worship services.
The celebration is not about receiving...
it is about Giving!
Yet, we need to understand the direct
relationship between giving and receiving...
It is the
fulfillment of God's Covenant
with Noah...
As
long as the earth remains there shall be seedtime and harvest!
In
spiritual language, we are the earth, Jesus is the Seed of God,
the harvest is the new creation of
regenerated souls!
These
souls come through the Person of
Pentecost!
In the celebration
of the Feast of the Harvest
("Open Heavens"),
the
Israelites would express their praise by bringing "burnt offerings,
grain
offerings, drink offerings, sin offerings, fellowship offerings and
free will offerings.
They would practice the gift and grace of giving to the Lord.
The celebration would be a tremendous and extraordinary outpouring of
GIVING with every kind of offering imaginable.
Who would receive these offerings on
behalf of the Lord?
The priests were
given the Lord's portion
of the offerings
to sustain
them in their service to the Lord and to the people.
God is into measurements.
He is precise in what He does and when
He does it!
Attitudes of unbelief keep most of God's people in
bondage.
So many people want to have that ole "stiffnecked experience"
when it comes to the spiritual things of the Kingdom of Heaven.
In other words, the pure Word of God is discarded for a more
comfortable "Gospel." The attitude is that It does not matter
what the Word of God says, what really matters is how life can be
structured
within a man pleasing structured "Gospel." There are so many
factions that promote a "Gospel" that are built on suppositions and
belief's that stretch the very imagination. They do not line up
with what has been recorded in the pure Word of Truth.
There are things that God wants to do when the "heavens are open!"
The disciples and those who were instructed to go to the upper room to
wait on God would have been celebrating the evening before Pentecost
morning. The previous night, they would have most likely taken
offerings to
the temple to thank God for His physical provisions and then returned
and been up all night studying God's Word.
This was the "custom" of celebrating in preparation for the Day of
Pentecost.
Keep in mind that their study would have been of the Old Testament.
The New Testament was not a reality. It had not been fully
enacted. God had not done the extraordinary things that we have
recorded in our Bibles. BUT!...
Look at what God did in an extraordinary way in Acts 2:1-4 AMP
2:1 AND WHEN
the day of Pentecost had fully come, (note: 50 days from Passover)
they were all assembled together in one place,
2 When
suddenly there came a sound from heaven like the rushing of a violent
tempest blast, and it filled the whole house in which they were
sitting. (note; the heavens
were "torn open")
3 And there
appeared to them tongues resembling fire, which were separated and
distributed and which settled on each one of them.
4 And they
were all filled (diffused throughout their souls) with the Holy Spirit
and began to speak in other (different, foreign) languages (tongues),
as the Spirit kept giving them clear and loud expression
[in each
tongue in appropriate words].
There has been a
battle over everything that God has set in place for the church
to be edified and to grow exponentially in the Light of Christ.
Everyone has an opinion... so did the Israelites at Mount Sinai.
Do you know the final outcome of that rebellious 40 year generation?
They all died in the desert wilderness trapped in their attitudes and
words of complaint and disobedience. Only those who were born
into the wilderness were allowed to cross over into a new beginning
with the exception of Joshua and Caleb.
First, they had to exercise obedience, courage and faith to even
move into the promised land that had been prepared for them.
Let us fully understand that the promised land was already occupied
and required young Israel to fight for divine position and to obey God
in His designs for their welfare, safety, and victory.
Many were killed moving toward their destiny. How many of God's
people are willing to die to self in order to attain their destiny of a
dedicated life in the full power of the Gospel?
Luke 9:23 AMP
23 And He said to all, If any person
wills to come after Me, let him deny himself [disown himself, forget,
lose sight of himself and his own interests, refuse and give up
himself] and take up his cross daily and follow Me [cleave steadfastly
to Me, conform wholly to My example in living and, if need be, in dying
also]
God wants to bless His consecrated people...
● those who are fully
sold-out to Him
● those willing to receive what He wants to
do
● those willing to walk in
faith exercising His principles of Kingdom life.
This brings us to other important spiritual truths.
This feast the Feast of Harvest
(of "open heavens") was observed
early in the third month on
the 50th day after the offering of the barley sheaf at the Passover, the Feast of
Unleavened Bread.
Pentecost included a holy convocation with the usual restriction on
manual labor. Work was prohibited on the Sabbath. This feast was
known as the Feast of Harvest
as well as Pentecost.
Num 28:26-31
describes the number and
nature of offerings and Deut 16:9-12 describes those who were to be
invited to this feast.
They include servants, sons and daughters,
Levites, the fatherless, the widow, and the stranger. Israelites were
to be reminded of their bondage in Egypt on that day!
(from Nelson's
Illustrated Bible Dictionary, Copyright (c)1986, Thomas Nelson
Publishers)
God is not a respecter of persons when it comes to salvation or
the baptism of the
Holy Ghost! See Acts Chapter 10.
Jesus invites all to come! It is not in the
cannon of the history of spiritual fellowship between heaven and earth
that you should be famished, naked, full of discord, full of evil, full
of disorder, full of sensuality, full of carnality.
Jesus saw people coming from the Feast of Tabernacles in Jerusalem and
called out to them...
John 7:37 AMP
Now on the final and
most important day of the Feast, Jesus stood, and He cried in a loud
voice, If any man is thirsty, let him come to Me and drink!
Come thirsty one, come needy one.. Jesus has sent the Holy Spirit to
fill you with the joy of living waters!
● Have you received the revelation of the
force of joy that is available
to you?
● Do you understand that you have an
extraordinary God?
When you finish reading this Letter, you will not go away as you
came
but you will go away endued, infused with the living torch of
the flame
of the Master's touch!
These Prophetic Voice Newsletters are not ordinary letters.
God would
not want His ministries to be ordinary.
The City of Lights is no
ordinary website.
It is prepared for the times and seasons in
which we live!
Humbly, I share the following personal testimony to the glory of the
Lord... As founders of Heart of God Ministries
International,
Phyllis and I
make extraordinary efforts to share the dynamics of
a loving, powerful
and comprehensively extraordinary God.
We refuse to be ordinary and God has continued to bless the works
of our hands and to return His Word with
new friendships and new opportunities. Why am I sharing these
personal things?
Because we have an extraordinary God who loves
us and talks to us. He hears our cries and He answers our
questions.
He multiplies us, increases us and blesses us with great
treasures of His presence in our lives. We have a God who makes
extraordinary people and we have God's plan for our lives and the work
of
the ministries.
We believe God! We believe the things
that He pours through us in these Letters. If you come to a place
of belief as well, you have come to a place where you have become
extraordinary. According to God's Word, when we speak and write
this way, we have come to the root of the matter that can bring forth
anything! If you who have been longing for the baptism of the
Holy Ghost and have been "tarrying" before the Lord everyday, if you
have come to a place of believing what the scriptures and the words of
this letter have revealed, you have come to a place where you
have become extraordinary.
Because Abram believed God, every person is blessed today through
faithful Abraham.
He was an extraordinary man of faith; he
believed God in the face of everything.
Galatians 3:8-9 AMP
8 And the Scripture, foreseeing that
God would justify (declare righteous, put in right standing with
Himself) the Gentiles in consequence of faith, proclaimed the Gospel
[foretelling the glad tidings of a Savior long beforehand] to Abraham
in the promise, saying, In you shall all the nations [of the earth] be
blessed.
9 So then,
those who are people of faith are blessed and made happy and favored by
God [as partners in fellowship] with the believing and trusting Abraham.
In summary what is Pentecost?
● Pentecost is receiving God's blessing of
abundant provisions.
It is a time to open our hearts to God in joyful praise
and giving.
As we do this, it positions us to receive spiritually as
well as
physically in body, soul and spirit.
● Pentecost is
supernatural revelation.
It was a time when God opened the heavens to reveal
His Word.
At Mount Sinai, fifty days after Passover, God gave
Moses the
Torah, which
means 'the teaching of God." Torah
is the revelation
of God's will, God's love and God's character.
Traditionally, most
consider it the first five books of the Bible, but in spiritual reality,
today, Torah is
all of the Scriptures... Genesis to Revelation.
At Pentecost in Jerusalem, Peter spoke the Gospel
and 3000 souls
were saved and added to the church. Through the
Holy Ghost's
empowerment, Peter is dramatically changed and reveals
God's
heart to His people... Peter preaches the Good News of
Christ!
He tells of the promises of the prophet Joel
chapter 2 whereby the
Spirit of God is poured out to be accompanied
by prophetic
utterance along with great signs and wonders.
● Pentecost is outpouring of the Holy Ghost.
As fire came down upon Mount Sinai, the FIRE of the Holy
Spirit
came upon the disciples in the upper room in
Jerusalem.
John the Baptist prophesied
that Jesus would baptize with the Holy
Ghost and fire. On the Day of Pentecost the
disciples were clothed
with His power. The gifts of the Spirit were
energized. The New
Spiritual Israel, the Church, was birthed! The anointing
of God
equipped them to see the sick healed, the oppressed
delivered,
the Gospel boldly proclaimed and the world changed!
Do you
sense the working of the Holy Spirit in this Letter?
Some of the
church around the globe is crying out today for a new
Pentecost but because so many do not know what Pentecost is all
about, they are not able to prepare for it. Then, a large part of
the church doesn't even want to have anything to do with
Pentecost! They don't want the Holy Ghost manifested and further
more, teach against His present mission.
The
apostles understood Pentecost! They
knew how to enter into the blessing of an Open heaven! They
celebrated God's provision with thanksgiving and praise. This is
what each of us need to do as well!
It is time for all to open up hearts and minds to the knowledge of
Pentecost and receive of the spiritual blessings of the baptism in the
Holy Ghost with His giving utterance of unknown tongues.
God gives us a three-fold witness of His provisions for you to be
baptized with the evidence of speaking in tongues in addition to the
command of Jesus of Mark 16:14-20 we studied above.
Witness
(1) Acts
2:4 NKJV
And they
were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak with other
tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.
Witness
(2) Acts
10:45-47 NKJV
45 And those of
the circumcision who believed were astonished, as many as came with
Peter, because the gift of the Holy Spirit had been poured out on the
Gentiles also.
46 For they heard them speak with tongues and magnify God.
Then Peter answered,
47 "Can anyone forbid water, that these should not be baptized who have
received the Holy Spirit just as we have?"
Witness
(30 Acts
19:6-7 NKJV
And when
Paul had laid hands on them, the Holy Spirit came upon them, and they
spoke with tongues and prophesied.7 Now the men were about twelve in
all.
The message of Christ and the gift of salvation is also given of God to
any who will believe that one must be born of the Spirit to enter
the
gift of eternal life.
Jesus is very explicit about this spiritual born-again experience.
Through repentance and by faith we receive God's governance
of our
lives.
As we meditate on God's word, we attune
our minds to think the thoughts of God which is His Word. When
faith is released, we
are moved into new spiritual experiences with empowerment to operate
by the Holy Spirit
and share the Light of Truth, Life and Spirit of the Kingdom of Heaven!
Are you preparing for the "open
heavens?
There is more of the Holy Spirit
Father God has prepared to pour out!
Just as
fire rained down upon the alters of Mount Carmel,
a
fresh outpouring of fire is coming to God's people!
1 Kings 18:38-39 KJV
38 Then the
fire of the LORD fell, and consumed the burnt sacrifice, and the wood,
and the stones, and the dust, and licked up the water that was in the
trench.
39 And when
all the people saw it, they fell on their faces: and they said, The
LORD, he is the God; the LORD, he is the God.
KJV
Are you expectantly
ready to receive the fire from upon high?
It will be extraordinary!
How do you prepare?
First seek your Day of Pentecost!
The following will prepare you for it and
the fresh fire coming!
1. Celebrate God's
provisions.
● Fill your spirit
with the provisions of His Spirit through personal
relationship and
with the Word of God filling your mind.
Jesus said that when the Holy Spirit comes
to abide and to empower
us, He will teach us the things that are
Christ's...
those things are the things of the
Father.
● How can one desire the things of
Heaven's realm such as healing,
miracles and divine favor if one does not esteem and seek
relationship
with God the Holy Spirit?
●
How can one experience the gifts of the Spirit without being
equipped
with His power?
We must develop a lifestyle of praise and
thanksgiving.
We are
to be filled with praise!
Praise is
demonstrated in singing.
Praise
is
demonstrated in thank
offerings.
Praise
is
demonstrated in the
testimony of our
mouth.
Praise opens heaven for fresh rain of God's blessings.
2. Celebrate God's revelation.
● Thank Father God that He has revealed
Himself to you through
His Son, His Word and His Spirit.
● Thank Him that He wants you to know His
mind and His heart.
Jeremiah
29:13 AMP
Then you will
seek Me, inquire for, and require Me [as a vital necessity] and find Me
when you search for Me with all your heart.
● Fill your mind with His Word and
receive fresh revelation.
● Allow the Word of God (His thoughts) to
reprogram your thinking
process.
● Memorize His promises.
● Observe
how He works in the lives of men and women who
trust Him.
● Hunger and thirst for spiritual
bread...
the
Word of God, Jesus is the Bread of Life.
When you pray the Lord's
Prayer, you ask God for your
daily spiritual meal (bread) as well as physical needs.
He has provided to lead you by His Spirit into His word
where you will experience illumination
of the bread prepared
just for you, enlightenment
for understanding, and revelation
that you may be energized to share the abundance of the
"meal'
with others as Jesus did with the feeding of the 5000.
He illuminates the steps of light He has set before you
for that day.
●
Actualize what
you believe. (Act produces the Fact)
3. Celebrate the
Person Holy Spirit.
● Walk by
faith that He is abiding in you and will manifest
His presence to you.
● Stay
in step with Him as you abide in Him.
● Believe that He will take of what is
Christ's and declare
and reveal it to you that you may understand the Spirit
Life.
The Holy Spirit is the Comforter. He takes the
necessary word at
the right time and gives it to you.
● Release yourself to Him with an humble
and thankful heart.
He
will take charge of you.
● Thank Him for bringing His thoughts and
His divine precious
spirit language into your life to speak the things
that your mind
cannot know what to speak.
● Obey His directives. You will
know it is Him speaking to you.
He is kind and direct. Some times He speaks
few words.
Sometimes He will releases a Word of Knowledge or a
Word of
Wisdom through you to edify and exhort others.
● Know that He "opens the heavens." He also
closes them.
● Receive the Lord's promise of the Holy
Ghost baptism by faith.
● Expect the baptism of fire and
empowerment.
There is only one Comforter. He has been with the
Father from
the beginning. He comes to give Light.
When He comes into your body, spirit, and soul, He
comes to
unveil the King of Glory. The Holy Spirit comes to abide
in you to
teach you about Jesus and to take of all of His and show it to
you.
He shows you the
message and principles of the Kingdom of Heaven!
By this you know the Holy Spirit is alive and His
presence is in you!
● The
Spirit of Truth brings forth the
Light of Divine Life.
Divine Life is full of divine appointment.
Divine Life is full of equipping of the spiritual
gifts.
Divine Life is full of the power of God manifested
out of the spirit
into the natural realm. To be filled with the Holy
Spirit is to be filled
with manifestation of spiritual gifts. He is
the glory of the Lord
being in the midst of us, manifesting His power and
love.
● The Holy Spirit is prophetic. He
is the spokesman of heaven on
earth today. He illuminates the Words of Jesus and the Words of
all the Scriptures for our understanding and effectual
work.
He is breath, life, Person and power. Give thanks to
Father God
for all He has already provided for you and for what He
has destined
to do in the future through your spiritual walk and the
benefits of the
gift of salvation.
● Gather with friends and family who are
seeking Him.
Enjoy His presence! He will manifest to
you! Drink of Him and let
the joy of the Lord fill you with new wine. The
Holy Spirit has a
wonderful sense of humor! He loves to fellowship
with us!
He is full of surprises that release great blessings
into our lives!
● Rejoice in His goodness!
1
Thessalonians 1:5-6 AMP
5
For our [preaching of the] glad tidings (the Gospel) came to you not
only in word, but also in [its own inherent] power and in the Holy
Spirit and with great conviction and absolute certainty [on our part].
You know what kind of men we proved [ourselves] to be among you for
your good.
6 And you [set
yourselves to] become imitators of us and [through us] of the Lord
Himself, for you welcomed our message in [spite of] much persecution,
with joy [inspired] by the Holy Spirit;
● Receive the Fire of God and the
energizing of His gifts!
●
Celebrate, celebrate, celebrate the One
who brings the day of Pentecost! The promise of the Holy Ghost is
here!
Proclaim the love you have for Him! Seek Him daily!
Declare that His power and authority are welcome in your life!
Do not put restrictions upon Him. Let Him have His way with you!
You will be amazed! He will honor your sincere and willing
heart and request!
● Study
the accounts of God's power and miracles in the Bible to
build your
faith and understanding of what God has provided for you.
● Read
about the great revivals of history. Believe what you read
about the administrations of the Holy Spirit.
( One of the best studies and accounts written in recently
of great outpouring is the book:
"The Toronto Blessing an Experience of Renewal and Revival"
CATCH
THE FIRE
by
Guy Chevreau
May the fresh Fire of the Holy Ghost fall
upon
you and give you an experience that is beyond your 'wildest dreams.'
May you personally and deeply be touched with His awesome extraordinary power and
may He transform you into an
awesome
extraordinary
ambassador of Christ!
Precious Holy Spirit,
You have stirred me to record these words on the heart of my dear
friend in the Lord.
Water them like Seeds that will grow...
Grow faith
Grow strength
Grow them in being extraordinary in You...
Empower them with the Kingly anointing of our Lord that your spiritual
fire never leaves them.
Prepare them for the new things You have established for this new
season of Your fire being released for the great harvest of souls.
Let them see that the baptism of the Spirit is greater than anything
else.
Even in those who have been baptized by You, let all be assured
through extraordinary experiences that the baptism of the Spirit is the
new order
of things altogether as the Lord Jesus spoke of these things pertaining
to the Kingdom of God.
Reveal and confirm that they cannot ever be ordinary in a relationship
with You.
Let Your Anointing Presence on their lives be multiplied in their homes
and everywhere they go.
I declare the Covenant of Prosperity
for their body, soul, spirit and all things
for them and every person they touch who stays in Scriptural
order under their authority in the Name of Jesus and by His blood.
In Jesus Name, it is done.
In
Christ's Service,
