what about sincerity?

Tuesday, July 5th, 2011

Sincerity is the beginning of wisdom says Yahuwah. Many will say that they seek after wisdom, but their words are empty and hollow because they are not prepared to do what it takes to acquire it. Wisdom is an ‘experiential’ quality, it cannot be gained through books or lectures, but only by living it through your life, says Yahuwah. So it follows that the difference between My wisdom and fleshly, ‘human’ wisdom is that wisdom of the flesh is controlled by your own righteousness manifesing in your life.

The degree to which you strive to live in a way that is pleasing in My sight will determine the amount of My wisdom you acquire.

A man cannot live for the flesh only and expect to attain My wisdom. Certainly he can become’ wise’ ,but he will be wise in his own eyes or in the eyes of men.

My Word instructs you not to seek the approval of men and here is a strong reason for that. When Solomon sought after wisdom, it was obviously not earthly wisdom he was referring to, after all, what could he have done with it? He already had more than anyone else. Man’s wisdom always seeks after his own increase. My Wisdom is centered around the increase of others and the ability to discern the correct choices to keep one in harmony with My Spirit, to bring power to that heart. So why then sincerity? Many claim to seek My Wisdom, but in their hearts of hearts it is man’s wisdom that they strive for, as their own increase is what is in the forefront of their minds.

Become an example of how everything can be attained by just keeping the needs of others as you main focus says Yahuwah.Again, action taken of ‘seek first the kingdom’….  will lay up treasures in heaven, which will often bring increase in the earthy realm as a natural by product.

Consistently check your sincerity levels, for in this lies one of the secret keys. There are too many evidence of those ‘going through emotions’ or they see their seed sowing as a product of their success. Therein lies a great deception which has been used by the enemy to cloud the truth from many.

Your sincere pursuit of goals which put the interest of others first, will create life experiences that generate the nature of My wisdom in great measure says Yahuwah.”Share This Post

Restoration only comes by….

Thursday, June 9th, 2011
” Restoration does not come through understanding My Word says Yahuwah, ( the Lord) it comes by acting upon it; by living it with your entire being, every hour of every day.
You cannot choose to be anointed in certain situations and not in others. You will either live a Spirit filled Christ centered life or not. It cannot be half and half or now and then or ‘not in the company of those people’
My anointing is your protection. It is what separates you from the world. How else can you be ‘in ‘ the world but not ‘of’ it ? says Yahuwah ( The Lord).  You cannot just decide it is so and go your own merry way!. This will never work; separation can only be effective when My Spirit transcends the flesh.
The very second the flesh is in the ascendancy, you are back in the world and are susceptible to all of the danger it holds. This is an inner work and not something for show and adornment. The enemy will know of you soon enough, but seek the safety of the flock until the time is right.
It is by design that at first glance all sheep look exactly the same. To the shepherd they are all different and they all have their unique attributes and he can call upon any of them at any time  and they will always respond to his voice.
This is always true unless they have strayed too far and are no longer in earshot. If My actions were not sudden and often overwhelming, they would hardly seem miraculous, and the things surrounding them would not create the impact that is My design says Yahuwah.( the Lord)
Only through the eyes of the anointing  will you truly be able to recognize the opportunities that are being presented, so maintain the mantle and be vigilant. Be sure to nurture one another and encourage one another  when the burden seems unreasonable, as it will seem to at times. Remember that My burden is never more than you can cope with so just rejoice in the fact that each of you has been selected says Yahuwah ( the Lord)
Stay in my anointing, dream dreams , hear My Words and live joyously says Yahuwah.
There is much work to do and much yet to learn, but the time is now to start being effective in the spiritual realm. Be prepared to find yourselves living a new kind of life and finally realizing what it means to be ‘in’ the world and not ‘of’ it.
My most powerful blessings are available for your fruit, says the Lord whose name is Yahuwah.

Be fruitful and please Me  and you will move on to the next level you are seeking.”

Living in “The Moment”

Tuesday, January 18th, 2011

This is a powerful message we received about the importance of living in “The Moment”.

“Imagine that life is like the pages of an unwritten book says YAHUAH ( The Lord). Each day you are given 24 blank pages and it is entirely your choice what is written on them. How would your book look? Would there be endless wasted pages that have nothing written on them? Would there be the same stories repeated over and over again? Would there be things so awful that you would not want anyone to see your book? I can tell you that all of these things apply to all people says YAH.

The human nature guarantees it. The enemy wants you to think that I spend all of My time reading the bad stuff or shaking My head at the blank pages. This is a lie. I am not interested in the blank pages and neither should you be. They are gone and forgotten and require no further attention. I do not even ‘see’ the bad stuff to read it says YAHUAH (The Lord). The words are washed away by My blood, all I see is the possibilities in you. Once you know that this is how I see you, why would you look at yourself in any other way?

Why spend time anguishing over what might have been? Why wish that you could just go back a few pages and re write something when it is neither possible nor necessary? What you write on today’s pages can only affect today and even then you can only effect the moment you are in by the actions you take in the moment. If you want to create momentum in your life, concentrate on being consistently effective in the moment. Talking about what you are going to do can be therapeutic, even inspirational. However, one moment of doing is worth a lifetime of talking. That is why I tell people to be doers of the Word ,not just hearers

Measure your days in moments of focused action and your will create momentous breakthroughs. There is no spiritual barrier for you to break through, just a fleshly reluctance to overcome. Staying in ‘moment mode’  will also help you to control and subdue the flesh. Focused thinking and definiteness of purpose are key points for each moment. Consistency is a skill, it has to be practiced before it becomes natural.

Remember that anxiety, fear and depression are tools of the enemy. I told you to be anxious for nothing and that means nothing. When these feelings take hold of you, just shake them off like the dust from your feet. Neither dwell on nor discuss them. Recognize them instantly for what you know they are; the fallen nature of the flesh trying to drag you away from your place of spiritual security.

There is nothing on this earth powerful enough to prise you out of My Hand says YAHUAH (The Lord), so change those moments into moments of joyful realization that you are a hand selected child of the living God and NO weapon formed against you may prosper because My Word is the truth ,says the YAHUAH of Hosts of the armies of heaven”Share This Post

SPIRITUAL DEVELOPMENT BEGINS WITH EXCELLENCE

Friday, September 3rd, 2010

The Lord gave me this message which shows that to truly pursue “excellence” in spiritual and personal development, you have to be the “brush” and let Him be the artist!

“Life is a constant cycle of cause and effect. Most of the time you are to busy worrying about the effects rather than the causes says God. The life that you have today is the one that you have designed for yourself says God. I put the brush in your hand initially, but it was you that made the decisions about what to paint.

Then came the time that we were painting together, and look how much better that became. Sure we still went off the canvas a few times when the flesh was permitted to participate, but over all you see a far more pleasant picture then when you were painting by yourself , all alone. Now it is time for you to become the brush, and let me do the painting says the Lord. There is still plenty of room on your canvas and together we will create a masterpiece. That means that there is no time to spend analyzing previous pictures- a wrong color here, too much shadow there- it is a pointless exercise unless you intend to keep on doing your own painting.

It is much easier to start with a clean piece of canvas and see what you truly desire appear on it, than it would be to change something you had previously worked on so that it only appears different

It has to be different from the first stroke. So it is with the things that challenge you. It is necessary for you to be different on a consistent basis in these areas. To plan out a day of activity is one thing, but if those activities are not carried out, what was the point? Excellence begins in the heart, not in the head. It is something that you have to be, before you will consistently do excellent things.  If you are not being excellent in your heart it is impossible to maintain a mind set of excellence says God. Make progress today by re visiting the principles of excellence and deciding that you are not going to settle for anything else.You will immediately see an improvement in your performance.”

Whatever path you may be on at present, you can find the answers you seek in God’s Holy scriptures. They have the ultimate keys to true Personal development from a Spiritual perspective

HOW TO RECEIVE THE BLESSINGS OF GOD

Friday, August 27th, 2010
The Lord had us read Psm 1 and then gave us this Word:

” In other words, do not take advice and guidance from unrighteous persons says the Lord.
A righteous person is one who walks in the way of the Lord. A person who acts in a “certain way”.
An unrighteous person is by default a wicked person. There is no middle ground says the Lord. You are either righteous or not. Wicked or not.
Just as a man cannot serve both God and mammon, he cannot be both righteous and wicked.
The council of the wicked can never lead to righteousness. If you are a righteous person, who does stand in the council of the wicked, it does not turn you into a wicked person, it simply makes your righteousness ineffective. When your righteousness is ineffective, the Lord cannot bless you, hence ‘blessed is the man who does not stand in the council of the wicked’.
By the same token ; blessed is NOT the man who stands in the council of the wicked. So, who are the wicked? Are they demonic looking people with horns sticking out of their heads? How do you spot them? It’s simple, they are the opposite of the righteous. So by the very fact that they are not righteous, they have to be wicked. So the easiest way to know if they are righteous is what?
Their fruit.
Matt 7:16 ‘ by their fruit you will recognize them’  So it is a very simple discerment. The fruit being produced by people will immediately tell you if they are righteous or not. You cannot make a judgement, for it is not your place to judge, but you can make an observation based on your knowledge of the truth. The Lord did not say  ’don’t be in the presence of the wicked’. You cannot be a light to the world by avoiding it.
The key is not to mastermind with or take advice from unrighteous people. Your primary council is the Holy Spirit says the Lord.
Having said all this, you are entirely responsible for your own fruit. You cannot point fingers or blame others for the fruit in your own life. Whatever circumstances and conditions have blossomed in your life, have been caused by the seeds that you have allowed to be planted.
You must take responsibility for that crop. Just as the farmer who gets an unsatisfactory result, if there is fruit that you don’t want to repeat, you must start over. Tear out that fruit and discard it. Thus eliminate that thought and behavior.  Prune that tree back to the roots- now start adding food ,the Word, to those roots. Shine life giving light , through the Holy Spirit, onto that tree, nurture it with righteousness and expect a bumper crop of big fruit that is sweet to the taste, life giving and attractive to others. So much so that they will want to know how to get some for themselves. And so the truth will spread and the number of those walking in righteousness will multiply.
What is my fruit?
I have provided a complete formula which you have never completely followed says the Lord. As you know there is no condemnation from Me, just disappointment at the undeveloped potential. The formula is your guide. Like any other ‘recipe’, if you do not use it or you miss out certain ingredients, it DOES NOT work. Your body works to a formula. Suppose it says today ‘ well I guess I won’t bother with the breathing today’ what would happen? Precisely , every part of the formula has to be applied to make it function and bear fruit.
My Formula will keep you on track. That way , you are standing in MY council and not that of the wicked. Do not concern yourself with times or schedules. Do concern yourself with right thinking followed by right actions.
As I have said before many times, everything is spiritual. The spiritual battle is waged at a vibrational level. Your WORDS and THOUGHTS set up that vibration. So again; prayer ( spoken thoughts) is your ONLY weapon in that realm. Use it UNceasingly. Pray without ceasing. It requires total focus and constant  remembrance of its importance.
Every inclination towards anger takes you away from your connection with the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit will not function in an environment that is hostile. By allowing others to evoke bitterness or anger, you are cheating yourself from the power of your divine connection. When anger or similar feelings arise, recognize them immediately for what they are, the fleshly worldly side of your nature attempting to gain control of your thoughts and actions causing you to behave in an ungodly manner.
Apply the TRUTH to the situation ‘ what does the Word of the Lord say?’ Once you have meditated on that , the way forward will be clearly defined.
Everything you do must be done from a standpoint of love. The enemy cannot abide in an atmosphere of love. Acting in love is an ‘act of resistance’. It is taking the very essence of evil and pushing it away with a force so powerful, it wins every time. God IS love. Take steps every day to demonstrate the love of God to people.
By focussing on the spiritual connection with the Lord, you can slow time down. Things do not ‘rush by’ in the supernatural like they do in the natural. The goal is not to live a supernatural life hidden away from the world, but to live it in the midst of the chaos, providing a calming loving influence.”

THE FORMULA:

WORD
SPIRIT ( ‘unite My Spirit to yourselves every minute of every day’)
CROSS ( Take up your cross – carry it at ALL times.Where do you find the cross? The burden of the cross is in My Word”)
WORD ( now embrace it. Let it DWELL in you and you will become My instruments”)
SPIRIT IN GREATER MEASURE
ACTION ( now that you have entered into the fulness of the Word, can you go into righteous action that will produce seeds of righteousness , that will cause a harvest that God will bless)
SEEDS
HARVEST
BLESSINGS
SEEDS IN GREATER MEASURE ( following the steps in this way will now create abundant seed, and that will lead to rewards)
REWARDS ( God looks at what your actions on earth produced that will be of lasting treasure and that will be the only ‘currency’ that He will reward)
KINGDOM ( Man’s righteous works by the Spirit of God working through man, will be on the foundation of the Blood of Christ for great rewards in the Kingdom) I Cor 3: 10-20

To take any piece ‘out’ or to ‘jump’ to another piece, will never bring the righteous FULLNESS that our Father desires. This is His heart in following His plan and with the strength He provides, we shall be made perfect by His Word.

THE IMPORTANCE OF SPIRITUAL ‘FREQUENCY’

Saturday, August 21st, 2010

Vibrational frequency is so important because without the correct resonance, even when you hear what you know is wisdom, your system will only retain it and take positive action upon it if your receptors were vibrating at a frequency that will cause the knowledge to be absorbed. It is possible to “hear” but without absorption.

The parable of the sown seed speaks about frequency. The ground into which you sow has to be prepared with the correct level of vibration to promote maximum fertility. That is why the frequency of the sower is so important. The same is true with healing. The body can manifest a realignment of cells immediately that it is instructed to do so. If the cells are later allowed to lapse back into the same disorder, the challenge will reappear. The seeds of wisdom and healing must be sowed into fertile ground. Prepare the ground first before sowing and teach the possessor of that ground how to set up and maintain the correct vibration required for the seeds to bear fruit.

Prayer in its purest form is the exchange of vibrational frequency from  God  to you through the Holy Spirit , the tuning fork of life. Anything other than the divine vibrational frequency will ultimately result in death and destruction. Righteous resonance promotes restoration and pursues eternal purpose says God”

SEEING THROUGH THE CLOUDS OF LIFE

Saturday, August 21st, 2010

This word again speaks to the importance of taking “refreshing” times during the course of your day. This is the only way to be sure that your focus is fully on God’s will for your life and not your own. It is the only way to make sure that you are being guided by His Holy Spirit and not influenced by the ways of the world.

The sun will go up and go down everyday, that, you can be sure of. My anointing and My Holy Spirit are equally as certain. However some days you cannot actually see the sun because the clouds or the mist masks its appearance. It is still there though!

So it is with the anointing of My Holy Spirit. It is always there, but sometimes it will be hidden from you by the clouds and the mist of this world and it is up to you to reach through and sweep away those obstructions.

The best way to do this, is through speaking My words, through prayer and direct connection with My Holy Spirit.

To take a true refreshing time, you must leave the place of your labor, you cannot successfully and fully give your attention to Me if you are surrounded by the environment that has worldly connections in plain view. Detach yourself and put yourself away for those hours so that you truly have an opportunity to be refreshed “

THE TRUE KEYS TO AN EMPOWERED LIFE

Saturday, August 21st, 2010

” Discipline and obedience are the true keys to the Godly life. The absence of them leads only to the carnal life wherein lies no fruit or reward. It is the natural inclination of the flesh to strive for the reward, yet this should not be the focus.

Seek first the righteousness that results from the actions of the Godly, in that way the rewards come later as a matter of course.

Again I repeat the importance of the formula. This is indeed a hard lesson, but things of eternal consequence are often so. The enemy seeks to blind you to these truths by diminishing their importance with the clutter of this world. Of course I expect you to operate in the worldly realm, why else would I have you abide there for this season? You need to abide within the structure of My plan and all will be added to you.

I have mentioned many times the breakthrough, but you must press through to enter into the fullness and do not shrink back in doubt or fear because you cannot see the fullness of it.

Remember to have a clear picture of your destination, therein lies the importance of the ‘written’ vision. You ask why I do not visit with you so often? The answer is simple, the guest will not arrive if the host is not present, there is no point in visiting an empty place.

My voice is constantly present to guide and direct those that I have chosen. I talk to them all day every day. The question is, are their ears open to hear Me or are their heads filled with the sound of the world?

The closer you get, the clearer the words are.

Through unity comes strength and clarity. My blessings are upon you, be patient and obedient and prosperous.

Focused application of the formula is the final key.You have applied it sporadically and gained some improvement. Now apply it surgically with precision and the flood gates will open says the Lord.

The Lord gave us this ‘formula’ in the beginning of 2003 to strengthen our walk with Him.

WORD

SPIRIT ( ‘unite My Spirit to yourselves every minute of every day’)

CROSS ( Take up your cross – carry it at ALL times.Where do you find the cross? The burden of the cross is in My Word”)

WORD ( now embrace it. Let it DWELL in you and you will become My instruments”)

ACTION ( now that you have entered into the fulness of the Word, can you go into righteous action that will produce seeds of righteousness , that will cause a harvest that God will bless)

SEEDS

HARVEST

BLESSINGS

SEEDS IN GREATER MEASURE ( following the steps in this way will now create abundant seed, and that will lead to rewards

REWARDS ( God looks at what your actions on earth produced that will be of lasting treasure and that will be the only ‘currency’ that He will reward

KINGDOM ( Man’s righteous works by the Spirit of God working through man, will be on the foundation of the Blood of Christ for great rewards in the Kingdom) I Cor 3: 10-20

DISAPPOINTMENTS ARE OFTEN BLESSINGS IN DISGUISE

Saturday, August 21st, 2010

” Disappointments are often blessings in disguise. There is a season for everything and everything has a season. When following a dream, make sure it is yours, following the dreams of another person could lead to a rude awakening.

Fiscally responsible prosperity will always glorify the Lord , so I do not prohibit it. Acquiring the wealth is never the issue , becoming a psalm 52 man is the problem. Stay in harmony with My plan for your life and with My Holy Spirit power and ensure that this fate does not befall you.

You have been presented with a golden opportunity to escape the hooks of the world to a greater degree, the decision is yours to make. If you want to be blessed, be in the habit of doing things that provoke My attention. Do you really think I am interested in who is winning the game or the latest episode of some television series? I am interested in the spirits and souls of the people I created, nothing else matters to Me.

They have been the sole focus of My attention since I created them. All the other things are mans creations which serve to in some way dilute the relationship. My concern is for the eternal world, not the temporal. One will soon replace the other and then, where will you be? What will you be doing?

In those answers lies the purpose that you are seeking . If you truly grasp the significance and the uncertainty of time, you will appreciate the folly of ‘options’. “What does it profit a man if he gains the whole world but loses his soul?”. Ensure that every project, every action is propelled by a soul saving motivation. Do not miss the fact that the greatest assurance for the salvation of your own souls lies in the saving of the spirits and souls of others through your example “

WHAT ABOUT THE 21 HOURS ?

Saturday, August 21st, 2010

The Lord sent us a stern warning about wasting endless hours watching TV!

” See how strong the worlds pull is? What now of the previous 21 hours of television a week? Is it going to be replaced by another 21 hours of the same pointless focus or will you honour your responsibilities? Progress is being made on your formula but you must use all of the ingredients. It is just like the old story of the cake recipe. If you miss out even one or 2 ingredients, it does just not work out how you want it to. Revisit your structure until it becomes second nature to you. Keep seeking My council for all decisions, the ‘wisdom of haste’ brings quick remorse.

Create measurable records for your spiritual work just as you have done for your secular work. A man studies to show himself approved, this will help you in your progress.

I still see no consistency in you. A day here, a day there. Is this truly the walk of the righteous? What do you feel in your heart?. If things do not feel perfect- increase your consistency of effort, for therein lies perfection.

I have reminded you of the pattern of timing and its importance. Be sure that all of your refreshing times are planned properly and take proper advantage of them and bask in My glory with this time that I have blessed you with. Work every day to seek My approval and your success will be multiplied “

* The refreshing times the Lord refers to are times that one sets out in a day to separate yourself from the things of the world for a brief time. During this time, you can clear your mind, converse with the Lord through the Holy Spirit and pray. You should look to have 2 refreshing times per day wherever possible.

* The formula is under ‘our story’ on the home page.
