Out of Spiritual Death


“Then you shall know that I am the LORD, when I have opened up your graves, O My people, and brought you up from your graves.” Ezekiel 37:13
This is the greatest and most remarkable of all changes – to be brought out of the grave of spiritual death, and made to rejoice in the light and liberty of spiritual life. None could work this but the living God.
How well do I remember when I was in the valley full of dry bones! Blessed was the day when sovereign grace sent a man of God to prophesy upon me! Glory be to God for the stirring which that word of faith caused among the dry bones. More blessed still was that heavenly breath from the four winds that made me live!
My new life, even in its pinings and sorrowings, is clear proof to me that the Lord can kill and make alive. He is the only God, and my quickened soul adores Him as the great I AM. As long as I live I will praise Him. (By Charles H Spurgeon.)
In gratitude to my Lord and my Saviour...

Kingdom Rain!

Everybody listen! It is time that we all sing the praises of our Lord Jesus Christ because He is about to rain on you in all His glory! He is about to deliver you to His Kingdom blessings! Behold the lamb has come! Never before have we seen or heard of so much wonder in our lives! It has taken us all many years to arrive at this place of freedom, but now that we are here, let us all give praises to our Lord and King! Let’s all shout hallelujah! Psalm 101:1 NLT “I will sing of your love and justice, LORD. I will praise you with songs.”

The time has come for us all to experience what it means to be a part of His Kingdom. We are about to be filled with so much joy that we will hardly recognise ourselves. We are about to become a part of an amazing time in history that will all unfold very soon. What am I talking about here? I am talking about the coming of His Kingdom to all His followers. Luke 13:29 NLT “And people will come from all over the world—from east and west, north and south—to take their places in the Kingdom of God.”

Our lives are about to be transformed beyond belief! I am saying these things to you as the Lord is putting them in my heart. He knows what you and I have been through thus far, and he knows what is about to happen! All this time we have been waiting and waiting for our miracles, well, I’m here to tell you that the waiting is over! That’s right! We’ve been kept waiting long enough. Satan is not going to win this battle – the battle has been fought and won long ago by Jesus, and His finished work at the cross. John 19:30 NKJV “So when Jesus had received the sour wine, He said, “It is finished!” And bowing His head, He gave up His spirit.”

There are times and seasons for all things under the sun. We have all experienced much pain and sorrow on our journeys, and now we are being lifted up by His strong arms and catapulted into our new destinies. Our destinies are to be filled with all the joy of the Lord! We are going to be so happy that we cannot help but to sing! Psalm 66:4 NLT “Everything on earth will worship you; they will sing your praises, shouting your name in glorious songs.”

All we need do now is to trust that we are being carried to a new place – a place where we are no longer the forgotten ones. We will be among the many who can say that their lives have been transformed by Jesus. He has saved us all from our sins, and now we can take our place amongst our brethren and enjoy all these great and wondrous blessings as they begin to unfold in our lives. Revelations 14:3 NKJV “They sang as it were a new song before the throne, before the four living creatures, and the elders; and no one could learn that song except the hundred and forty-four thousand who were redeemed from the earth.”

There will be no more shame – only joy! Nor more tears – only laughter! Nor more slavery – only freedom! Freedom to live as the Lord intends for us all! May God bless you all as you read these words and may He show you the truth for yourselves. Peace, love and mercy be yours in Jesus name – hallelujah! Revelations 21:4 NKJV “And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes; there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying. There shall be no more pain, for the former things have passed away.”

PS This is only the beginning folks! Just wait and see! Watch and behold with your eyes as the blessings come upon you and your families. Your friends and associates will not believe their eyes! God bless! Isaiah 61:1-3 NKJV “The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon Me, Because the LORD has anointed Me To preach good tidings to the poor; He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted, To proclaim liberty to the captives, And the opening of the prison to those who are bound; To proclaim the acceptable year of the LORD, And the day of vengeance of our God; To comfort all who mourn, To console those who mourn in Zion, To give them beauty for ashes, The oil of joy for mourning, The garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; That they may be called trees of righteousness, The planting of the LORD, that He may be glorified.” Amen.

All glory for these words as always goes to the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Amen.

Stand Up and be Counted!

Rise up all you nations and serve the Lord God Almighty! Take up your sword and put your armor on that you may be counted worthy to serve the King of kings and Lord of all lords! Be advised that you may come into contact with many who will try to thwart your plans. That is the enemy, and he will stop at nothing to try and get in your way. Ephesians 6:11 NKJV “Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.”

Be that as it may, he will not be successful for I will ensure that you are protected and guided along life’s highways, and you will be given much to assist you on your journey. I will be there for you always, and never will I forsake you. Psalm 37:23-24 NLT “The LORD directs the steps of the godly. He delights in every detail of their lives. Though they stumble, they will never fall, for the LORD holds them by the hand.”

You must be strong, and stand your ground in the face of all evil. Have faith that nothing by any means shall ever harm you, and that you will indeed come out shining like the lights that you all are. 1 Thessalonians 5:5-11 NKJV “You are all sons of light and sons of the day. We are not of the night nor of darkness. Therefore let us not sleep, as others do, but let us watch and be sober. For those who sleep, sleep at night, and those who get drunk are drunk at night. But let us who are of the day be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love, and as a helmet the hope of salvation. For God did not appoint us to wrath, but to obtain salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ, who died for us, that whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with Him. Therefore comfort each other and edify one another, just as you also are doing.”

There is a great move of the Holy Spirit happening right now, and there will be a harvest of many souls. This is a time like no other! Many will come into the Kingdom! Many, many will be saved! You can count on it! Revelation 14:14-16 NKJV “Then I looked, and behold, a white cloud, and on the cloud sat One like the Son of Man, having on His head a golden crown, and in His hand a sharp sickle. And another angel came out of the temple, crying with a loud voice to Him who sat on the cloud, “Thrust in Your sickle and reap, for the time has come for You to reap, for the harvest of the earth is ripe.” So He who sat on the cloud thrust in His sickle on the earth, and the earth was reaped.”

This I say to you, you must rely upon Me in My greatness to supply you with everything you will need in order that My plans and desires for you be fulfilled. There must be a willingness to serve Me at all costs, whether it be at the loss of some who are close to you, or the falling away of certain aspects of your lifestyles. Let them fall away now. Let them all go, for they no longer can walk with you on your path.

The ones who do stay, however, will be transformed by the light! They will become brand new individuals having been changed from within! They will become new creations! 2 Corinthians 5:17 NKJV “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.”

Of course, many who are led on this journey will become totally different people to who they were prior to coming into My Kingdom. This is good news for some, with the old falling away, and much of the little annoying habits and personality traits that you weren’t happy with, all disappearing as you become whole! Things you thought you could never change about yourself, suddenly become non-existent! You will see yourself in a new light because you have become that light. You, my friends, are the lights of the world! Hallelujah! Glory be to God forever! Amen. Matthew 5:14-16 NKJV “You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do they light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.”

PS 2 Corinthians 5:6-15 NKJV “So we are always confident, knowing that while we are at home in the body we are absent from the Lord. For we walk by faith, not by sight. We are confident, yes, well pleased rather to be absent from the body and to be present with the Lord.

The Judgment Seat of Christ

Therefore we make it our aim, whether present or absent, to be well pleasing to Him. For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, that each one may receive the things done in the body, according to what he has done, whether good or bad. Knowing, therefore, the terror of the Lord, we persuade men; but we are well known to God, and I also trust are well known in your consciences.

Be Reconciled to God

For we do not commend ourselves again to you, but give you opportunity to boast on our behalf, that you may have an answer for those who boast in appearance and not in heart. For if we are beside ourselves, it is for God; or if we are of sound mind, it is for you. For the love of Christ compels us, because we judge thus: that if One died for all, then all died; and He died for all, that those who live should live no longer for themselves, but for Him who died for them and rose again.” Amen.

All glory for these words as always goes to the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Amen.
