Gatekeepers Alert! The Enemy is at the Gates

Gatekeepers Alert! The Enemy is at the Gates...

Gatekeepers Alert! The enemy is at the gates. I wouldn’t normally send two blogs in a week but I woke up to this image and the headline today in a Newspaper that reads “The Enemy is at the Gates”and thought it would be appropriate to alert the Gatekeepers and intercessors in the different nations. Furious US Vice-President Biden warns ISIS that “America will hound it ‘to the gates of hell’ for beheading Steven Sotloff…..” What is outplaying here is what could potentially occur in any of our nations and might only be a matter of time if we do nothing. Let us arise as Gatekeepers and Intercessors in our nations and stand at our watches so we don’t give access to the enemy. Genesis 22:17 “I will surely bless you, and I will surely multiply your offspring as the stars of heaven and as the sand that is on the seashore. And your offspring shall possess the gate of his enemies,” This was a word to Abraham and the same word was echoed a generation later to Rebekah in Genesis 24:60. This is a resounding word even today as we are Abraham’s offsprings and we need to take back and possess the gates of our cities/nations from the hands of the enemies. We not only have a mandate as Gatekeepers and intercessors, but a responsibility for our nations. We need to arise and be challenged just like Nehemiah, and be moved to action- Nehemiah 2:3 “I said to the king, “Let the king live forever! Why should not my face be sad, when the city, the place of my fathers’ graves, lies in ruins, and its gates have been destroyed by fire?” Nehemiah 2:17-18 “Then I said to them, “You see the trouble we...

Do You Know your Calling?

Do You Know your Calling?...

DESTINY preserves you from a shipwreck Acts 26:15-19-The Call of Paul explained (Acts 9:15-16)-What is your calling? Do you know? There is a call on every life no matter where you are and we all have been allotted a land which we all have to tend! It is important you realise and understand fully the following: Storm along the way-Acts 27:13-14 Excess luggage must be shed so you can run the race (Travel Light)-v19 Hope is all you have and you must never lose hope- v20 and remember God’s promises (Jeremiah 29:11) Fasting and praying must be a continuous process of your call The Lord brings encouragement if you have a purpose and in His will whenever you are going thorough difficulties- Acts 27:21-22 Destiny preserves- v23-26 You have to be constantly in the spirit. You have to allow the Holy Spirit to instruct you every day Remain in the ship- v31 Destiny of Paul again saves– Acts 27:42-44 (The soldiers had a change of heart because of the destiny of Paul Are you following God’s call for your life? Any other way will not bring the desired fruit Get in line with purpose and if you are not sure ask the Lord to reveal it to you and He is willing to reveal that to you. Pray Isaiah...

Ephesians 4:23
  • Equipping the Saints

Ephesians 4:23

Ephesians 4:23 “to put off your old self, which belongs to your former manner of life and is corrupt through deceitful desires, and to be renewed in the spirit of your minds,” If I was to give a title for this verse then it would be “Putting on the new Self”. Self in itself is Man without God! The essence of this verse is about not just the renewing of the mind but the “spirit of the mind”. Let me explain. Your mind is an unseen battlefield and has a character of its own, and indeed the mind is a spirit. This explains why the mind is the first place that Satan attacks. Once he gets hold of your mind it’s like 98{d1e2c760763fa7ce5ec6ebff4be1053441992b57dd6064ed979b6723dfa2e06e} of the job is finished and the rest is simply putting it to action. There is however the spirit of God and of course that of the man that constantly wrestles with each other. The Bible says Let this mind be in you- Philippians 2:5. “Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus,”. If we are to constantly have the mind of Christ it needs renewing as we don’t often or not able to maintain it without renewal. However we cannot take this verse in isolation without reading the preceding verses. V18-24 They *are darkened in their understanding, *alienated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them, due to *their hardness of heart. [19] They *have become callous and *have given themselves up to sensuality, greedy to practice every kind of impurity. [20] But that is not the way you *learned Christ!— [21] assuming that *you have heard about him and *were taught in him, as the truth is in Jesus, [22] to *put off *your old self,*...

Wisdom of the Lepers

Wisdom of the Lepers

The Wisdom of the Lepers or 4 Wise Helpers! – 2 Kings 7   Quite often we are waiting on God for so many things, breakthrough, illness, job, financial etc. and there are different groups of those who are waiting on God 1. Those that are lazy or slothful and use the Lord as the excuse for their passiveness or inactivity 2. Those that genuinely are waiting but have no clue about what to do next… (Describe waiting according to Isaiah 40:31-Waiting is ACTIVE and not Passive) “[31] but those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.” But the Lord said “Moses why do this people cry to me?  Tell them to go forward Exodus 14:15.  Enough of the waiting on God because God is waiting on you to go forward NOW! There has been a famine in the land of Israel…..famine so bad that people have begun to eat their children 2 Kings 6:26-30 and this was the turning point that actually affected the King to the point that he taught it was Elisha the servant of the most high that actually put this curse upon the nation of Israel and demanded for the head of the prophet. This was more than ordinary famine it was a “siege” upon a nation and the King believed this could only have been from the Lord and indeed it was from the Lord as we see in 2 Kings 8:1. (Poland-Warsaw-1939, Marienburg 1410, Danzig 1734, Jasna Gora-1635 However the word of the Lord came through the Prophet 2 Kings 7:1 and whenever there is a crisis or a major disaster in the nation the...
