THE RETURN OF THE GLORY

LIGHT FOR THE WAY
(Daily Devotional)

Teusday 4th October 2016

Topic: The Return Of The Glory

Text: "…Then the house was filled with a cloud, even the
house of the Lord; so that the priests could not
stand to minister by reason of the cloud: for the
glory of the Lord had filled the house of God" (2
Chronicles 5:13-14).

There was a day not many years ago when
people talked about the glory cloud filling
churches. People testified of when it rolled in,
and as it gradually covered each row of people
they would fall under the power of God. It would
fill the room until everyone was on the floor. I
believe if we are not careful, we are on verge of
losing that dimension of the supernatural in our
worship gatherings. Worship bands have to be
careful not to become too professional, just
singing the most popular songs. Worshipers must
enter in and be willing to linger when the
anointing is present.
God is looking right now for people and churches
that will allow room for that level of the
anointing. Second Chronicles 5:13 says the glory
fell when all the singers and musicians came
into an undistracted place of unity in their
thanksgiving. We need to make more room for
the glory to descend upon our worship services
once again. Intercede for God to raise up houses
of worship who will emulate Heaven so that we
can say once again, “The cloud has returned.”

PRAYER

Lord, I ask You to raise up houses of worship that
will emulate Heaven and make room for the glory.
Teach me how to become a true worshiper and
cause Your Church to say once again. Amen.

SPEAK PEACE OVER YOUR DESCENDANTS

LIGHT FOR THE WAY
(Daily Devotional)

Sunday 2nd October 2016

Topic: Speaking Peace Over Your Descendants

Text: "For Mordecai the Jew was next unto king
Ahasuerus, and great among the Jews, and
accepted of the multitude of his brethren, seeking
the wealth of his people, and speaking peace to
all his seed" (Esther 10:3).

When the Lord gave Mordecai a position as
second-in-command over the providences of King
Ahasuerus (Xerxes), Mordecai made a point to
see to the welfare of the Jews and his own
personal descendants. One key way he did that
was by giving them a peace declaration. In
Esther 10:3, the King James says “speaking
peace to all his seed.” The Amplified says it
similarly. Some other translations say he spoke
up for their welfare. I believe both angles apply.
Mordecai had the position to not only give voice
to the people’s needs, but he also spoke over
them in such a way that it set their course in
peace.
As God’s people, we have been given authority to
form the future
of both our natural and in many cases spiritual
descendants. Parents can do it for their children.
Pastors can do so for their congregations, and so
forth. We provide peace to our descendants in
two key ways. First, look out for their benefit.
Create an environment where they will enjoy
personal fulfillment and growth. Second, speak
peace over them and to them. Declare their lives
will be blessed and full of abundance. As the
person who God has positioned, you have a
divine gift to form their future. Stand up today
and speak peace to your descendants.

PRAYER
Father, I decree peace over my descendants
today. I say their future will be full of the peace
of God, and I commit to create for them a positive
environment of peace. Amen.

THE PROPHETIC WORD FOR TODAY

THE PROPHETIC WORD FOR TODAY

The Sovereign LORD says today, don't look at the winds and the waves. Do not look at the threatening circumstances. Don't listen to the voices of unbelief insisting what you can and cannot do. Don't listen to the doubting thoughts that insist things are not going to work out. Keep your eyes upon Me says the Father. I am the master of the winds and the waves assaulting your life. As you keep your eyes upon Me - behold I will guide you with my eye. I will give you an understanding heart and deep wisdom to get you through the darkness and confusion in the circumstance. I am imparting to you this day "seer" anointing to see THROUGH the murk and the mire of the situation and come out on the other side intact and in victory. You will even be as one who says "I only do what I see my Father do." You are going to make the right choices that to other people do not make sense, but you are not going to be led by the mind, you're going to be led by the eye of My Spirit clearing the fog of uncertainty and bringing you forward even this day to new territory.

So get a pen and paper and write the vision. Write down what you see and what I show you beloved. You will write down the things I have spoken to you in the past. You will write down what I am speaking to you at this moment. You will write down the instructions you will wake up to in the morning. You will write it down and walk it out and you will see it will be just that way. I will speak to you in similitude and metaphor and YES, I will speak to you even apparently at times that you might know what to do on the morrow and what is coming even before the day dawns. As you comply, I will bring you on the shortest path to obedience. As you move forward you are going to break forth into the kingdom that you might see operating in your life My righteousness, My joy, and My peace. This is your manifest portion beloved. This is what "seek the kingdom" looks like. This is the new beginning and the new direction that you have asked Me for. It is here, even at the door and the occasion of your obedience.

THE PROPHETIC WORD FOR TODAY

THE PROPHETIC WORD FOR TODAY

The Sovereign LORD says today
that I am beautifying your countenance with My glory. I am releasing to you the Spirit of Wisdom and the Spirit of Understanding to hasten you into the blessing place I have prepared for you. Your life has been occupied and busied about with many things but I say to you this is a season to sit at My feet and learn of Me. This is a season of releasing of the mantle of dominion and authority that you have heard about but seldom seen operate in your life. There is a nobility on the inside of you says the Father and there is a crown of glory accessible to you that I have set upon your head. What I am saying is that I am activating the rule of God - the rule of My kingly authority within you IN THE GLORY. This anointing and this authority will cause you to speak a word in season. You will speak My word at the appointed time and it will go out and CHANGE that which needs to be changed and break every yoke of bondage.

Beloved, I have extended to you Edenic authority. It is in your hand to speak the word that expels the serpent and establishes righteousness in your life and the lives of those around you. I have placed you in your life even as I placed Adam in the garden. I placed the first couple in the garden to tend and to keep it. When the serpent raises its head, says the Father, understand that the angels with the flaming swords are there not to expel you - they are on hand to destroy the work of the evil one and implement the entitlements that were ratified on the cross in your behalf through the shed blood of Calvary. You are going to look at the things that don't belong in your life, that don't belong in your family, and you will call on the angels with the voice of the Holy Spirit on the inside of you, and you will prophesy over your family and over your home to command deliverance. Rise up today says the LORD into your blood bought portion and mantle and deliverance. Set aside every besetting sin and distraction for this is the day that the bars are cut asunder and the gates open up and victory is declared in your land.

RUNNING THE RACE

LIGHT FOR THE WAY
(Daily Devotional)

Friday 30ty September 2016

Topic: Running The Race

Text: "Do you not know that those who run in a race all
run, but only one receives the prize? Run in such
a way that you may win"  (1 Corinthians 9:24
NASB).

No one gets results at anything with half-hearted
effort. You can’t get a good job without effort.
You can’t cook a meal, enjoy a nice home, or
raise kids without effort. One of the cardinal
rules of life is that if you work at something, you
will experience results. In First Corinthians
9:24-25, Paul says that it takes discipline and
determination to get results in your Christian
walk. Like a runner, you have to do it like you
want to win. Some good Christians rarely get
results because they are indifferent with the
things of the spirit. Some have become
unenthusiastic about the anointing, so they don’t
pray. If you want to see more results, you have
to run like you want it. If you need divine
healing, run for it. If it’s deliverance, run for it.
The prize to run for is not just getting to Heaven
one day. Run for the things you want to see
come to pass in your life right now! In fact, as a
prophetic act of faith that you are going to run
harder than ever before for the things you want
to see take place, jump up and run right now if
you can! It’s time to get up and run!

PRAYER
Lord, I make a determination today to run for the
things I want to see come to pass. I make a fresh
commitment to Your Word and the things of the
Spirit and I make a run for it right now! In Jesus’
Name, amen.

THE PROPHETIC WORD FOR TODAY

THE PROPHETIC WORD FOR TODAY

The Sovereign LORD says today that your life has not been in vain. At times you felt like everything you touched turned to brass. You cried out to Me many nights feeling as though you were Esau and not Jacob. The enemy tried to hide from you the fullness of My glory in your life. The enemy sought daily to rob you of joy. You watched daily as others who wallowed in compromise and disobedience were seemingly promoted above you through machination and manipulation and flattery. They made a showy appearance and left lives devastated in their wake. You were faithful to go in and clean up the mess and minister to the lives of those who were damaged by ego-driven leaders that spared not the flock.

Despair not says the LORD. Recompense is your portion. I have heard every cry. Every tear you cried whether in yourself or for the needs of others - they have been saved as precious ointment in My bottle. There will be glory and fullness and blessing for you. Honor is your portion. Dishonor and the warfare of times past will be washed away by the spirit of recompense and restitution I release over you this day. This day is a day of celebration. This day we celebrate the faithfulness of one with a servant's heart who lays their life daily on the altar of living sacrifice. I see your heart. I see your uplifted hands in the night seasons. Know that I am your Great Benefactor and in My pavilion you will recline and know the rest I have accorded you in My presence.
