Christ is the end of the Law unto righteousness for everyone. The word ‘end’ could be interpreted as termination but also purpose. The Law was the schoolteacher explaining God’s standards but was powerless to make us righteous. The Law was given for mankind to realize that we could not meet God’s standards by our own efforts, and that we needed a saviour. The Apostle Peter talked about worlds (a w...

Most of the people living in the time of the Old Testament only had a revelation of who God was in the context of the Law - being that He was distant, harsh and to be feared. Because they did not know God well, they misunderstood Him. The same can be true of us. If we do not know Him really well, we are inclined to misinterpret and misjudge God, drawing wrong conclusions and accusing Him when thin...

We have been blessed by God, made holy, blameless, and fruitful, even before we were clothed in flesh. We were enabled to move in supernatural power and thereby giving glory unto God. God spoke His word of sonship over us, which word will not return to Him void. Learning through whatever we are experiencing in life, we are called to thereby bear spiritual fruit. We are to multiply this fruit, impa...

In the time of the Old Testament and the Law drought was the punishment for sin but when Jesus died on the cross, He opened up the floods to continuously flow towards the people of God and we are now living in the time of rains and floods. This is the time of the entrance of the new wherein we are operating in greater power, anointing, and flow of the Holy Spirit. Those who meditate upon His word...

God exists in eternity. When we repent of our sins, God forgives and is able to go back in eternity to the place you were before you sinned and that is why to Him it is it as if you have never sinned. When Adam fell into sin, God had to create time so that Adam would not be eternally sinful, and that the fullness of time Christ could come and bring eternal righteousness. Even as God reached out in...

To possess the promises of God, there are principles of access. Number one is holding on to your dreams and to keep believing that God can quicken and resurrect them when you have become tired of waiting and that He will become involved in the fulfilment thereof. Number two is that God wants us to activate our imagination, keeping our hearts soft and focused on Him and envisioning what He wants to...

Throughout history, The Father, Son and Holy Spirit as well as God’s movement in- among- through- and out of his people are pictured in Scripture as a flowing river. This flowing of God through them should be normal in the life of every Christian. The river brings life and vitality to us since we are the planting of the Lord. When we are filled with Him, He will also flow out of us as rivers of li...

Really amazing things happen when a person’s spirit is revived. In revival we see enemies like sickness and poverty fleeing, never to return. It is a place where nothing can come against us to destroy, and where we will not be taken down, since the Church of Jesus Christ is indestructible and will prevail even in the gates of hell. God is graciously good to us, revealing his glory and as our fathe...

The passing of Queen Elizabeth II of Great Britain at the outset of the ministry tour was of great significance, since the Lord said that the old was gone and that He will be doing a new thing in restoring His garden in the United Kingdom. There had previously been a prophetic promise of revival in Britain, which prophecy was confirmed by a world-renown, powerful sign. This trip was connected to t...

We see the spirit of Gnosticism in the church today when we look at the lack of moral values and integrity amongst Christians. We should be different since we are in the world but not of the world. To successfully counteract this moral decay – which is regarded by the world as normal – we need to be continuously filled with the Holy Spirit. He is our guide, strength, and the one who enables us to...

When Israel was suffering in Egypt, God saw, heard, knew (experienced), and was concerned about what they were going through. He saw everything that had been done to them. The people believed that He had visited them, had compassion on them, was concerned about their past and committed to their future, to redeem them. Their response was to worship God. The signs which God gave to Moses to perform...

We have received a salvation package from God. After having believed and receiving the gift of salvation, the Holy Spirit and God’s grace in our lives are also gifts to us from the Lord. Although everything described thus far has been free, and are the doorway towards sanctification, sanctification itself is not free. Sanctification is of no benefit to God or the new man in Christ, because that pe...

God created man in His image and likeness to have authority and dominion as kings and priests in His domain, or kingdom, on this earth. From what we read in Psalm 82, God (Elohim) expects us, the elohim to act like gods. Jesus referred to himself as the ‘son of man’ when speaking to the people, thereby identifying with us, and incorporating us into his ministry. Since He is also the Son of God, so...

The country is in trouble, and our only salvation lies with the Lord. He is encouraging us to stand firm and not be discouraged but to have faith in his enduring love. God is aware of the situation. There is light at the end of the tunnel because He is with us. We have to fulfil our part by completely yielding and submitting to God and He will do his part in this battle. Our responsibility starts...

By nature human beings have hardened hearts, slow to believe. It is only by being born again that we receive a new heart and spirit. God gives us new hearts for his glory, to our good and for the benefit of people around us. To have the right things deposited in our hearts, it is necessary to drink from Jesus by faith and have Him flowing out of our pure hearts like a crystal-clear river – the wat...

We are living in an era of social injustices, racial hatred, violent crimes, confused identities, conformity, loss of a conscience, immorality, fraud, and corruption – a godless, aimless, lost society. All of this is being exacerbated by distortions coming via mass media, peer pressure and poor family involvement. But when God shows up, all this will change. Bitterness, anger, hatred, anger, and r...

Faith is talked about in Hebrews as being a substance, material, or constituent. It is a belief not based on supportive evidence. Trust, however, is based on past experience – experience which is a point of reference for the next level of faith and trust. Whereas the believer starts out with faith in the Word of God, faith is grown together with trust, as we experience more and more of the goodnes...

At our conversion we give our hearts to Jesus. He then continues to work in our hearts through the Holy Spirit, enacting the work of sanctification on that, our inner being. God wants a deep, personal, and meaningful relationship with us and although He loves us unconditionally, to experience this love, we are to be careful to stay within the boundaries thereof. We can be separated from an experie...

What we put into our hearts is of vital importance. Our conversations and actions reveal what is in our hearts because whatever we allow a foothold in our hearts will be followed by thoughts, giving birth to words and actions. For us to change our hearts, we need to be actively in control of what enter into it. We need to have undivided hearts, fully occupied by God, loving Him, and giving Him pri...

God instructs us to guard our hearts unceasingly and diligently as a matter of priority, because your heart is the well-spring of- and determines the course of your life. The heart is more than a blood-pumping organ. According to the Bible it is the origin of our thought life. It is a composition of our souls, minds, emotions and will, the centre of our emotional//intellectual/moral character, as...

Whenever something fresh happens in a Church, it is because it had started in the hearts of the people. A person’s heart is synonymous with their spirit. The heart is connected to the brain. The brain is where information is gathered, while decisions are made with the heart. The heart is also that with what we believe. You are who you are because of what is in your heart, and who you are in that s...

All of creation is groaning in expectation, awaiting the revealing of the Sons of God. Although the final day when His Sons are revealed is surely coming, glimpses of this revelation are already visible when we, in our everyday lives, reveal the heart of the Father to those around us. Signs, wonders, kindness to others, taking control of adverse weather phenomena, taking authority, and lovingly sp...

The early church was very powerful, and the reason was that they prayed in the Spirit, built themselves up in their most holy faith and stayed within the boundaries of God’s love. For us to experience this same power, we need to emulate them. There is an inherent power in righteousness and godliness. We have been set free by the Lord but to protect and safeguard our freedom and place of blessing a...

Sin is an extremely heavy burden, as we see in the Old Testament from what Cain said when he said that the burden was more than what he could bear and again when Pharaoh asked for the heavy burden (nāśā') to be lifted up and removed. For Israel to have their sins removed, a goat was chosen (the scapegoat), their sins put upon it. and it was taken far away into the wilderness, where the sin was no...

The Holy Spirit is the spirit of truth, and we need Him to understand the Scriptures which He inspired. The Holy Spirit will be with us forever, He is our comforter, the Spirit of adoption unto sonship. Although Jesus’ disciples often did not understand Him because of their ingrained ‘Law’ thought patterns, on the day of Pentecost, they received a download of understanding and revelation from the...
