Cleansing the Generational Things of the Past
Character, Featured, Spiritual Warfare
King David’s Heart After the Lord There have been many times in my life when the Lord God has shown me, that I have been living under a generational curse. Very recently He showed me, that many generational curses are not simply due to the actions of others, but that they have been spoken over households as well. Many curses He told me are gender specific; sometimes following the male family line, not always the female, according to the way in which they have been spoken. There are times in my own life when because of these things, I can no longer progress in the things of the Lord. These areas need to be revealed to me by His Holy Spirit, so that they can be dealt with by appropriating the blood of Jesus Christ on my behalf. There is always a combination of my own sin, as well as the generational things of the past. When confronted by his own sin, King David said: “Have mercy upon me, O God, according to Your lovingkindness; according to the multitude of Your tender mercies, blot...

Where is the Evidence of Your Faith?
Jesus said, “Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God” (Matthew 4:4). Recorded in the Gospels of the New Testament, Jesus repeated the words: “Oh you of little faith.”

The Kingdom of God is Near — Part Two
In the book of Genesis in the Bible, at the time that God made His covenant with Abraham that He would give the Israelites the promised land, the promise was for Abraham and his seed. As a sign of that covenant, the Lord had instructed Abraham, for each male to be circumcised on the eighth day of his life. “This is my covenant, which ye shall keep, between me and you and thy seed after thee; Every man child among you shall be circumcised.

The Danger of Ignoring God
When God speaks to us, He is constantly addressing our hearts, our heart’s attitudes and our heart’s desires. He is constantly asking us “Will you lay down your life?” …

God Will Restore
God Will Rebuild What Is Exposed In a previous article “God’s vision is for all” – Isaiah 54:1–10 reveals how the prophet Isaiah spoke prophetically to the Jews. He addresses three types of people, representing three different spiritual states – the spiritually barren; the widowed; and the wife who feels deserted and distressed. Through Isaiah, God gives them many powerful promises for what He is about to do in their lives in the future. This passage is also true for us as believers in Christ today and our restoration happens as we continue to look to him. The remainder of Isaiah 54 uses the analogy or picture of an afflicted city, without comfort and lashed by storms. During a storm, buildings are often Stripped of their outer coverings or facades so that their internal structure is exposed, and The strength of their foundations determines whether they are still able to stand. This can also be like us, when we have been broken down by sin or life’s trials. And just like the facades...

Intimacy With God
God’s desire is that we choose to enter into a new life with Him and that we experience this new life to the full!

Redeeming the Time – Part One
Time can represent a set time for a particular purpose or the season of opportunity appointed by God for His purposes to be fulfilled!

Redeeming the Time – Part Two
God has set the times and seasons by His own authority, but we do not know when these times and seasons are until God chooses to reveal them

Restoration Through Forgiveness – Part One
The challenge of forgiveness is perhaps one of the hardest things for believers in Christ and non-believers alike to come to terms with. It doesn't seem to matter whether the offence has been great or small, real or perceived; all of us throughout many occasions in our lives will come face-to-face with the choice as to whether or not we will forgive. Forgiveness is an Issue of the Heart Forgiveness is something which flows from the heart. When we experience difficulty in forgiving others, that difficulty is there because of something deep within our hearts. We need to ask God about these areas and to allow Him to minister healing, because Jesus said we must forgive from our hearts! Jesus said, "The good man brings good things out of the good stored up in his heart, and the evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in his heart" (Luke 6:45). Forgiveness is a good thing! When Jesus was teaching His disciples about forgiveness, He told them a parable about an unmerciful...

Restoration Through Forgiveness – Part Two
Unforgiveness is a scheme of the enemy to cause discord among people and to trap them in a place where they cannot find peace and move on

The Power of Repentance – Part One
All four Gospels of the New Testament, in their first few chapters, testify of one whom the prophets had spoken of, saying, “Behold, I will send My messenger, and he shall prepare the way before Me” (Malachi 3:1, KJV). This messenger was known as John the Baptist, He was “The voice of one crying in the wilderness: ‘Prepare the way of the LORD; Make straight in the desert a highway for our God’” (Isaiah 40:3, NKJV).

Entering God’s Rest
A Day Like Any Other Day A day like any other day can change the rest of your life! It was on a day like any other day that God said to Abram: “Leave your country, your people and your father’s household and go to the land I will show you”(Genesis 12:1). It was on a day like any other day that God prophesied over Abram: “I will make you into a great nation and I will bless you; I will make your name great, and you will be a blessing. I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse; and all peoples on earth will be blessed through you” (Genesis 12:2 & 3). A day like any other day became a day unlike any other day because Abram had an encounter with the living God! It was on a day like any other day that God spoke and Abram obeyed! A day like any other day for Abram became a day unlike any other day and changed the course of history.....because he heard the Word of the Lord, he trusted Him and he obeyed! A day like any other day can change the rest of your...

Intimacy With God
God’s desire is that we choose to enter into a new life with Him and that we experience this new life to the full!

Strive to Work Together in Brotherly Love
In the New Testament of the Bible, in the book of Romans chapter 12, the Apostle Paul speaks on the diligent use of spiritual gifts among the brethren. Right at this time, he makes the following statement: “Let love be without hypocrisy. Abhor what is evil. Cling to what is good. Be kindly affectionate to one another with brotherly love, in honour giving preference to one another”

We are a Body
When speaking of Jesus, the writer of Hebrews said: “Therefore, when He (Jesus) came into the world, He said: ‘Sacrifice and offering You did not desire, but a bodyYou have prepared for Me. In burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin You had no pleasure. Then I said, ‘Behold, I have come—In the volume of the book it is written of me’” (Hebrews 10:5-7). (These words were quoted from Psalm 40:6 & 7)

Entering Into Freedom – Part One
We Need Faith to Walk in The Promises of God God wants every believer in Christ to walk in the fullness of the promises contained in His Word. The writers of Hebrews and James warn us however, that if we do not have faith, we will not receive the things that He has promised. “For indeed the gospel was preached to us as well as to them; but the word which they heard did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in those who heard it” . (Hebrews 4:2) “But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind. For let not that man suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord; he is a double–minded man, unstable in all his ways”. (James 1:6–8) The writer of Hebrews cautions us that like the Israelites who wandered in the desert and who did not enter into the Promised Land; If we fail to believe, neither will we enter into the promises of God. “So we see that they could not enter in because of unbelief”. (Hebrews 3:19)...

The Challenge of Doing it Right
The Beggar Named Lazarus “There was a rich man who was dressed in purple and fine linen and lived in luxury every day. At his gate was laid a beggar named Lazarus, covered with sores and longing to eat what fell from the rich man’s table. Even the dogs came and licked his sores. The time came when the beggar died and the angels carried him to Abraham’s side. The rich man also died and was buried. In hell, where he was in torment, he looked up and saw Abraham far away, with Lazarus by his side. So he called to him, ‘Father Abraham, have pity on me and send Lazarus to dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue, because I am in agony in this fire.’ But Abraham replied ‘Son, remember that in your lifetime you received your good things, while Lazarus received bad things, but now he is comforted here and you are in agony. And besides all this, between us and you a great chasm has been fixed, so that those who want to go from here to you cannot, nor can anyone cross over from...
