29 October 2021. Holy Understanding
“The Fear of The LORD is the beginning of wisdom. Wake up, Church and throw off the familiarity you have with My Spirit and My Presence. For in the pursuit of friendship with Me, you have forgotten the fullness of my nature, and in that, you have stopped fearing Me.
Have you been wondering and questioning life? Unsure where to turn? Lacking counsel or direction? You are longing for the wisdom that only comes from Me. A wisdom that can only be found in fearing Me. Fearing Me isn’t because I AM angry or mad, but fearing Me is an awakening of the purity and holiness found in Me and the reality of me in your day-to-day life.
It is seeing Me in My Glory and Majesty and seeing how separated I AM from all things defiled and sinful. Fear Me, and I will give you the wisdom to navigate life and situations. Fear Me, and I will bring to you the joy of My Nature and My Character. Learn to be my friend at the same time as learning to see Me in My Fullness. “
Proverbs 9:10 NIV “The fear of The LORD is the beginning of wisdom, and knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.”
Proverbs 12:27 NIV “The fear of The LORD is a fountain of life, turning a person from the snares of death.”
28 October 2021. The Great Unveiling
“My sons and daughters, as you come to my alter on your knees with heads and hearts bowed low. Look up in your spirits and see me unveil all that has covered you and stopped you from seeing Me in the fullness of My Glory. You have let the enemy dim your sight and veil you, but that veil was not from Me; that veil that separates earth and heaven was torn on the day I died for you. There is no separation. As you lift up your head, I will unveil you to see more clearly into the spiritual realm that is all around you.
As we lock eyes, you will see yourselves as you are in the light of My Glory. Let Me unveil you. For you are Mine, and I AM yours. Let My Eyes of Glory burn through you with love and let them burn up all the lies. See, absorb, digest My Light and Glory into the fullness of your being and rise up My Bride in radiance and glory.”
Activation : As you kneel before The LORD, ask Him to show you what veil is covering you (shame, guilt, fear etc.). Ask Him to remove the veil between you and Him so that you can see something new in the spiritual realm. Seek God’s Face, and His Eyes. See His Glory looking at you. Let His Gaze burn up the lies the enemy has told you and any impurities, so that you can rise transformed into your full God-given identity. Ask God to reveal to you and show you in his reflection how He sees you with the veil gone.
2 Corinthians 3;18 (NIV) “But whenever anyone turns to The LORD the veil is taken away. Now The LORD is the Spirit and where the spirit of The LORD is there is freedom And we all who with Unveiled faces contemplate The LORD’s glory are being transformed into his image with ever-increasing glory which comes from The LORD who is spirit.”

26 October 2021. We Are Your Home
“Heaven is My Throne, and earth is My Footstool. Where is the house that you will build Me, and where is the place of My rest? For all those things My hand has made, and all those things exist,” says The LORD. “But on this one will I look: on him who is poor and of a contrite spirit, and who trembles at My Word.” Isaiah 66:1-2 NKJV.
“I AM bringing back into My Church The Fear of The LORD. Many of you have become overly familiar with Me that you have lost the reverence and the awe of who I AM. You have put to one side the majestic holiness of My Character, and as I search the earth, I AM looking for individuals who have contrite hearts and who have a Fear of The LORD and tremble at the weight of My Word.
On these individuals, I can find My Home. Welcome Me home today. Welcome Me to find My Rest and dwelling with you. As I come, watch as I shape you and make you into My Image.”
Ephesians 2:22 NIV “And in him you too are being built together to become a dwelling in which God lives by his Spirit.”
25 October 2021. Dwell
The Spirit of The LORD says, “I AM a dwelling place for you. My Throne Room is a place of dwelling that can saturate your whole being — mind, body, soul and spirit. Allow Me to purge you from all the contamination and dirt of the world. Allow My Light and affection to fill you to overflowing. I AM yours, and you are Mine. There is no substitute of true satisfaction than to dwell in My Fullness. Dwelling fulfills, dwelling permeates deep, dwelling sustains, dwelling overflows, dwelling is the only way to see Me for who I really AM to you. I AM inviting you to dwell with Me forever!”
Activation : Take time today to ‘dwell’ in Him and to gaze into the wonder and awe of who He is. Tell Him, “I want to dwell with You all the days of my life.”
Psalm 84:1-5 NLT “How lovely is your dwelling place, O Lord of Heaven’s Armies. I long, yes, I faint with longing to enter the courts of The LORD. With my whole being, body and soul, I will shout joyfully to the living God. Even the sparrow finds a home, and the swallow builds her nest and raises her young at a place near your altar, O Lord of Heaven’s Armies, my King and my God! What joy for those who can live in your house, always singing your praises. What joy for those whose strength comes from The LORD, who have set their minds on a pilgrimage to Jerusalem.”
Psalm 23:6 NLT “Surely your goodness and unfailing love will pursue me all the days of my life, and I will live in the house of The LORD forever.”
22 October 2021 Purified Worship
“I AM calling My Bride to be free to worship and serve me without any kind of distraction or compromise. I set her in a place of prominence where her purity can radiate to all corners of the earth, drawing every nation, tribe, and tongue to My Kingdom.
Beloved, I AM taking you through a refining process where I can deal with the deep and intimate places of your heart. I call you to be radically set free from every hindrance the enemy has placed in your life. Let Me wash you as white as snow so that your light can shine to all men. It is time to arise in unity as the spotless Bride of Christ!”
Pray : Jesus, help me to welcome your refining and purifying process. As I gaze into your eyes that burn like fire, let there be nothing of impurity or dross left within me. May I become even more spotless in this season so I can serve You unhindered in the next.
Malachi 3:3 NLT “He will sit like a refiner of silver, burning away the dross. He will purify the Levites, refining them like gold and silver, so they may again offer acceptable sacrifices to The LORD.”
Colossians 3: 1-4 NIV “Since, then, you have been raised with Christ, set your hearts on things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things. For you died, and your life is now hidden with Christ in God.”
21 October 2021. Face Down Singing
The Spirit is saying, “Sing that new song to Me. Sing it from where you are. Come on your face to Me. I know where you are and what is happening. I know — every part of you. I see your heart. You are burning with desire for Me.
Come. Bow down. Low — and worship Me. Why should I do that, you say? My Heart is in the ‘right place’, and is that not enough? Yes, I do look at the heart. I see everything. Give in. Give in to your LORD, oh western Church. Why should you not bow down to Me? All of you. Your resistance is astonishing. Bow down to Me, not other gods. Not the gods of normal earthly activities. Do not be like the rest. Sing that new song to Me.”
Isaiah 66:23, NASB “”And it shall be from new moon to new moon and from sabbath to sabbath, all mankind will come to bow down before Me,” says The LORD.”
Psalm 5:7, NIV “But I, by your great love, can come into your house; in reverence I bow down toward your holy temple.”
20 October 2021. Heaven’s Sound
“There’s a sound being distilled as you sit in my presence, as you allow the hubbub of the earth to fade away, and you become more aware of the roar of heaven. I AM distilling my sound in you, filtering out all the other noise.
Like ones who listen first to a tuning fork to calibrate their instrument, as you sit in this place of My Glory, surrounded by the sounds of heaven, I AM calibrating you to receive the sounds of heaven in their purity, untainted by the discordant sounds of earth. A pure sound that will penetrate where other sounds cannot, that will carry across the earth.
This is a call to those who are to carry My Sound to set aside the time, prioritise time, sit in this heavenly space, and be calibrated anew with The Sound of Heaven. This is a call to My Levitical Priests, My Worshippers, those who long to release My Sound upon the earth. Those with groaning in their spirit to hear My Song over the earth.
Come and sit with Me and let Me calibrate you.”
Psalm 40:3 ESV “He put a new song in my mouth, a song of praise to our God. Many will see and fear, and put their trust in The LORD.”
Rev 14:3 ESV “…and they were singing a new song before the throne and before the elders …”
19 October 2021. The Call to Honour
“Open up your ears, brush off the slim which has surrounded them. Unplug your ears and hear the languages of heaven. Open your ears, not to the sound of the earth’s grumbling and complaint but hear the sound of heaven. Hear the languages of heaven, the language of honour, praise and thanksgiving and come into agreement with heaven today.
Honour promises you a long life. Honour welcomes and keeps a move of God. Honour brings healing to hearts and bodies, honour sets you apart from the world, honour and praise are continuously around my throne. Praise and thanksgiving welcome me to come and dwell with you.
I call you to honour today; I call you to take a stand for the language of heaven. To repent where your words have sounded more like the enemy than my own and to start afresh today to welcome to the language of heaven.”
Deuteronomy 5:16 ESV “Honour your father and your mother, as The LORD your God commanded you, that your days may belong, and that it may go well with you in the land that The LORD your God is giving you.”
Revelation 5:13 NIV “Then I heard every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth and on the sea, and all that is in them, saying: “To him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb be praise and honour and glory and power, forever and ever!””
18 October 2021. Fragrance for Eternity
“You are building a fragrance for eternity. You are joining forces with the angels and creatures of Heaven to release a fragrance for eternity. Your worship has become stale that is distasteful to Me, it is cheap and tarnished. Your worship to Me has become quick and without affection towards Heaven but today I AM calling you to a day and night, night and day worship that fills the atmospheres of darkness and deadness.
Allow your silence of worship to turn into a roar of fragrant desperation to Me. You will be remembered for the fragrance you released to Me. You will be remembered for eternity. I will recognize it, I will see it, I will reward it.”
Activation : Spend time asking Holy Spirit where your worship is distasteful or where you lack in giving Him honour through your worship. Write down what He says to you and work to improve the areas that need to be made right.
Revelation 4:8 NLT “Each of these living beings had six wings, and their wings were covered all over with eyes, inside and out. Day after day and night after night they keep on saying, “Holy, holy, holy is The LORD God, the Almighty- the one who always was, who is, and who is still to come.””
John 5:24 NLT “For God is spirit, so those who worship him must worship in spirit and in truth.”

15 October 2021. Jesus Uncaged!
I heard The LORD say this, “Jesus has become your prisoner. It’s time for the liberation of Jesus.’
Is Jesus liberating in the midst of you? Is the time you spend together one where Jesus can have his way? Is the Father free to be whoever he wants to be?
Do you experience the fullness of the nature of God? The wildness of God, the fullness of emotions, the depths of joy? Do you see the tongues of fire, the raising of the dead and the healing of the sick as your normal interaction with God? When you meet with him, do you fall down as though dead under the weight of his glory and presence? If not, then where have you caged Jesus up?
Where have you said, this is how I prefer you to turn up Jesus? This is what I’d like you to look like, move like, come like. Today God is breaking off your personal preferences and is freeing you of the religious mindsets which have caged Him in. Repent where you have caged Jesus and let God have His way in your midst.
Revelation 3:19-20 NIV “Those whom I love I rebuke and discipline. So be earnest and repent. Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with that person, and they with me.”
14 October 2021. The Supremacy of Christ
“My child, don’t focus on the things that seem to be falling apart around you. It might look one way in the stories you hear and the pictures you see, but that’s not true. Ask me to reveal to you the truth of these days.
Look to me and remember that I hold all things together. Stand firm in your faith — I have not left my position. Trust in me alone and focus on my face. Hold tightly onto me and allow yourself to come to a deep knowing in your core that I am supreme over everything that may concern you. There is nothing that I don’t see, and there is nothing I cannot do.”
Activation : Declare God’s supremacy over all things. Declare that Jesus reigns over our world, the cosmos and everything in it. Jesus reigns over your nation/city; Jesus reigns over your home; Jesus reigns over your family; Jesus reigns over your finances; Jesus reigns over your work/day; Jesus reigns over your time. Submit every element of your life and thinking to the supremacy of Jesus Christ of Nazareth.
Colossians 1:16-17 (NIV) “For in him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things have been created through him and for him. He is before all things, and in him all things hold together.”
Matthew 19:26 (NLT) “Jesus looked at them intently and said, “Humanly speaking, it is impossible. But with God everything is possible.”
Ephesians 6: 13 (NLT) “Therefore, put on every piece of God’s armour so you will be able to resist the enemy in the time of evil. Then after the battle you will still be standing firm.”
13 October 2021. I AM Raising You Up!
“I AM calling you forward! You have felt like you have been in a season of laying down. A season for some that has brought rest and for others a season of desperation, but today, no matter your situation, I raise you up and out and bring victory to you.
The key to this is to recognise where I have been in this season of rest and desperation. Do this by identifying what I AM doing in you. You will be able to release to Me these things in an honourable way and not a way of self-exaltation. I AM using you now. You do not need to wait any longer!”
Activation : Pray right now for the Holy Spirit to help you recognise what God is doing in you and set your heart to Him and humbly release it to God.
Romans 9:16-17 NIV “It does not, therefore, depend on human desire or effort, but on God’s mercy. For Scripture says to Pharaoh: “I raised you up for this very purpose, that I might display my power in you and that my name might be proclaimed in all the earth.”
12 October 2021. Is Anything Too Hard For The LORD?
“I AM raising up people on the earth who look at every mountain they face with a righteous roar and declare ‘is anything too hard for The LORD?,’ a people who like David asks ‘who dares challenge the armies of LORD?’ I AM still and will always be the God who formed the earth, made the depths of the sea with its laws and then superseded those laws and parted the sea, enabling the Israelites to walk to safety. I AM still the God who transforms nations, heals incurable diseases and rescues prodigals. I ask you this day is there anything too hard for Me?”
Jeremiah 32:27 (ESV) “Behold, I am The LORD, the God of all flesh. Is anything too hard for me?”
1 Samuel 17:26 (ESV) “And David said to the men who stood by him, “What shall be done for the man who kills this Philistine and takes away the reproach from Israel? For who is this uncircumcised Philistine, that he should defy the armies of the living God?””
11 October 2021. Unapproachable Light
8 October 2021. I Release My Joy!
The Spirit of The LORD says, “I long to give you Laughter, Joy, Peace and Love. This is not the opposite of you being My Servant in The Kingdom. They are NOT mutually exclusive. So, where you have thought that you cannot have the good things of The Kingdom at the same time as being a servant for Me, I tell the Truth. These things are possible through the unimaginable work of Jesus on The Cross. Joy in abundance even in difficulties.”
Take this release of Glory from the Spirit as you lay down your burdens today. Ask Him for that ‘Holy Spirit balance’ in your life.
1 Corinthians 10:13 ESV “No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your ability, but with the temptation, he will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.”
Psalm 16:11 NIV “You make known to me the path of life; you will fill me with joy in your presence, with eternal pleasures at your right hand.”
7 October 2021. Peace
“In the midst of Chaos, trials and confusion, know that I AM your God and I release to you My
Peace. My peace surpasses all understanding. I AM with you in the midst of every challenge you face and will remain with you once the challenges have passed.
My Peace will allow hope to arise even when things look hopeless. My Peace will give you strength to arise, draw near and pray. My Peace will enable you to see clearly again where the dark fog of anxiety has attempted to halt your progress. I give you My Peace with all its liberating power!”
Philippians 4:6-7 (ESV) “Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.”
6 October 2021. Remember
“I reminded the Israelites to remember who I was for them, to corporately share the stories. As well as keeping them aware of their dependence on Me, it strengthened the ties that bound them together and reminded them that they were part of the whole, part of a bigger story.
In this time, when I AM drawing you into a closer-knit sense of community, tell the stories of who I have been for you and remember My Body. As you remind each other of the God you serve, allow it to wash your minds with the powerful truth that there is no God like yours.
Remember who I AM; remember to whom you belong.”
Activation : As you gather with other believers, tell the stories that illustrate an aspect of God’s character — stories of how God has provided for you in the last year or how he has strengthened you or given you direction. Take communion with each other as you remember what Jesus did for you and declare there is no God like our God.
Deuteronomy 6:12 (NIV) “…then when you eat and are satisfied, be careful that you do not forget The LORD, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery.”
1 Chronicles 16:11-13 (NIV) “Look to The LORD and his strength; seek his face always. Remember the wonders he has done, his miracles and the judgments he pronounced, you his servants, the descendants of Israel, his chosen ones, the children of Jacob.”
Luke 22:19 (NIV) “And he took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to them, saying, ‘This is my body given for you; do this in remembrance of me.”
5 October 2021. Beginnings and Endings
“I AM the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End. I AM here with you now and in eternity at the same time. I AM the author of time and space, and even before you were even conceived, I had written a destiny and a purpose uniquely for you.
Do you think that I have made a mistake? Were you expecting to be somewhere else right now on your journey, or are you pushing to find your way through in your strength?
Let Me remind you that I hold you in the palm of My Hand. I write all of your beginnings and endings, and I craft you in the process if you let Me. Soon, it will all make sense to you, and you will see that I have written your story perfectly.”
Prayer : God, sometimes I can’t tell the difference between beginnings and endings. I am sorry for where I hold onto things I should let go of, and where I run ahead into something new before being sure it’s the right thing to do. Lord, I hand you my beginnings and my endings and where I am right now in the midst of them. I give you permission to release me from what holds me back and move me into the new you have for me. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
Philippians 1:6 (NIV) “being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.”
Jeremiah 1:5 (NIV) “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, and before you were born I set you apart and appointed you as a prophet to the nations.”
Philippians 3:13 (NIV) “Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead,”
4 October 2021. HIS Glory Fills The Earth
The Name of The LORD endures forever. His Name knows no bounds and has no limits. His Name will be known from generation to generation, and they will sing of His Goodness. His Name shall continue until the end, and all the peoples of the earth will know it. The earth will bless His Holy Name, and in His Name, they too will be blessed. He is the God who only does wondrous things. He is the God who works all things to His good and the one who spoke all things into being. Blessed be His Glorious Name. The Name of Jesus Christ our LORD. May His Name today filled the whole earth, May His Glory Cover and fill the earth.
Agree with Scripture today, speak these out loud as a Prophetic Declaration that God’s Glory will be made known in the earth today.
Numbers 14:21 NIV “Nevertheless, as surely as I live and as surely as the glory of The LORD fills the whole earth,”
Jeremiah 23:24 NLV “Can a man hide himself in secret places so that I cannot see him?” says The LORD. “Do I not fill heaven and earth?” says The LORD.”
Isaiah 6:3 NIV “And they were calling to one another “Holy, holy, holy is The LORD Almighty; the whole earth is full of his glory.””
Habakkuk 2:14 NIV “For the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of The LORD as the waters cover the sea.”
Psalm 72:19 NIV “Praise be to his glorious name forever; may the whole earth be filled with his glory. Amen and Amen.”
1 October 2021. Call to Me!
“Call to Me, and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know.” Jeremiah 33:3 (NIV)
‘Call to Me, and I will answer you’ this is My Promise. There are many things you do not understand. There are many things you do not know. There are situations and circumstances where you lack insight and strategy. There are situations where you feel overwhelmed or confused.
My Answers will point you to the great, the wondrous, and the remarkable things that I AM doing. My Answers will point you to the things you cannot search out on your own, the things that you do not see, reserved for those who seek My Face. My Response will lead you in the way of peace. My Response will lead you deeper into Me.
Call to Me, and I will answer you!”
James 1:5 (NIV) “If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you.”
Colossians 2:2-3 (TPT) “I am contending for you that your hearts will be wrapped in the comfort of heaven and woven together into love’s fabric. This will give you access to all the riches of God as you experience the revelation of God’s great mystery ~ Christ. For our spiritual wealth is in him, like hidden treasure waiting to be discovered ~ heaven’s wisdom and endless riches of revelation knowledge.”
