Proclaim Jesus IS Lord!

Me: Good morning Lord. Thank you for waking me this morning and for this new day you have made. I commit this day to you with all it holds, and I ask that you will help me to serve you this day as you deserve. I love you Lord.

Lord: Good morning son. Thank you for joining us this morning and for your worship. We love you too.

I would that my people would stand upon my promises and not put their trust in other gods. The current thinking in Europe is that there is safety in numbers, and that all the problems they have faced in the last months will be cured in a matter of moments, by coming together as one. This thinking is badly flawed.

In the days of Babel, because they did not put their trust in me, I sent an angel of confusion amongst the men and women. I confused their languages and scattered them throughout the whole world. When Israel turned away from me and put its trust in Egypt or Assyria. I sent them away from the land of plenty and safety that I, the Lord Almighty, had provided for them. I sent them to dwell in strange lands, where they were strangers. I put within them a yearning for their homeland, a yearning that nothing would satisfy. I did this in order to bring them to the realisation that they had lost everything, because they had turned away from the Lord their provider.

In this, your day, because mankind has turned away from me, I have sent amongst them a angel of confusion, to break up their corrupt thinking and evil ways. There is no comfort to be found in a united, financially motivated Europe, because the heart of Europe is far from me. Those who rely upon such a union will be disappointed, confused and scattered. Those who turn and return to me shall find that I, and I alone, have the answer they seek. Do not fear that Britain stands alone; fear only that she stands without me!

Pray every day for this your people to return to the Lord their God. Pray for those who have never known my Son, that they will be introduced to him. Pray for those who make these big decisions, that affect the lives of so many. Pray for the religious leaders of the nation, not just the Christian ones, that they together will call for a day of fasting and prayer before me.

Now is the time for Christians to end their silence and to speak out with one clear voice, proclaiming Jesus is Lord! Shout it from the rooftops  and proclaim it in the valleys. Let every corner of the land echo with the single call to arms, Jesus IS Lord!

Lift up the cover that is hiding your light, Place your lamp in a high place that it may shed light all around, that all may see. Be bold, be strong, for I the Lord your God, am with you, and I love you.

Walk the Path with Me.

Me: Good morning Lord. Thank you for waking me this morning and for this new day. Thank you Lord that you always hear our prayers. Lord I commit all those for whom I have prayed this morning and I ask Lord that you will meet all their needs whatever they are. I love you Lord.

Lord:
Good morning Martin, Thank you for joining us this morning and for spending time with us. Thank you for your prayers for those you love and care for. Be assured that I have heard every one of your prayers and have acted accordingly. We love you, and we love those you pray for.

As you listen to me, be open to what I am saying, for I would lead you into areas you would not normally go, and down paths you would not normally tread. Do not be afraid, only be strong and very courageous. The sort of paths I will take you down require you to take a step of faith.

When my Son was about to leave his disciples and come home to me, He gave them a commission to take the gospel into all the world. He told them to heal the sick and raise the dead, and to do all the things that He had done. These things can only be accomplished when my children walk close to me. When you walk close to me and we become working partners together, these signs and wonders will follow. And the Kingdom of Heaven will be enlarged.

Each day, as you draw close to me, you bring those with needs to me. I want you to continue to do this, but not with an attitude of resignation, or with a belief that "this is a disaster." I want you to bring them to me in faith, believing that I have the perfect answer for them! Then be bold, and ask me what that answer is!

Ask me what you should be doing about it, for it may be that you have a role in the answer. Be open to what I say to you, for if I do ask you to act, I require you to act immediately! When I speak to you and share with you my will, hold on to that vision of my perfection, and do not let anything move you from claiming that vision in it's entirety.

The same is true when you pray for those who need to be drawn into the Kingdom. Some people are incredibly stubborn and resist all attempts to 'convert them'. If I give you the vision of them as my children, it is time for you to be stubborn, and to hold on and claim them for the kingdom. Do not let go of that vision or stop praying, until you see them on their knees praying for salvation.

Do not be afraid to journal what I tell you about. It doesn't need to be made public, but if it is recorded, it is there to remind you, of both my will, and when delivered, my answer.

So when I reveal a path and open the way for you, walk along it with me, for you will never walk alone; I shall be with you. Open your eyes and watch me work. Be glad, for I am always with you, and always at work. I want us to be together in this work. I love you.

A New Boldness

Lord:    Over the coming months you will witness an increase in the manifestation of the gifts of the Holy Spirit, especially the lesser used gifts. Some of these manifestations will have a high public profile, and there will be attempts to ridicule them. However my work is my own responsibility, and no one will need to defend me. I shall confound the so called 'wise' of this age, and reveal my wisdom in a way which will make the wisdom of the world look as small and insignificant, as indeed it is. Watch out for my Spirit working and rejoice when you see it. Pray for those who you see being used by me, and bless them.

Boldness
At this time I require my Church to recover the boldness it enjoyed in the first days after Pentecost. The boldness to speak about me, without embarrassment. The boldness to call upon my name as you pray for healing, deliverance and guidance. The boldness to use the higher gifts of prophecy, knowledge and discernment. Boldness to preach and teach the true good news in its completeness. The boldness to believe me and trust me, even when the odds seem stacked against you.

Without being argumentative, I want my Church to speak out for the truth and to hold on to my higher standards. Do not compromise the truth. If you are in doubt about what is truth, then know this: My Word always stands.

Encourage the regular reading of My Word. The Bible must be read with an open mind. By that I mean open to Me. There is a lot in the Bible that seems like a mystery, some of it even offends  modern delicate western sensitivity. Read it with simple acceptance and pray for understanding. Do not struggle with truth. I long to tell my people what they want to know but they either don't ask me, or they don't accept what I am telling them. Be open to my spoken word to you. Yes, I do speak directly to all my children who are open to hear my voice. Encourage them to listen and show them how to hear my voice.

I said that you would be seeing an increase in the manifestation of spiritual gifts. Be prepared also to receive and use the many gifts I have given you. Yes all of you! All who receive my Son as their saviour, are able to receive my Spirit, and therefore to be equipped with all the gifts they need. Remember the gifts of the Spirit are not some sort of status symbol; they are articles of equipment for the soldier to use as he goes about his business. I delight in pouring out my Spirit on all who will be open channels. However, I cannot flow through channels that are blocked by unbelief, sin and prejudice. These need to be dealt with, so bring them to me in prayer.
