"Unless You Can Be My Disciple, You Cannot Follow Me"
by Belinda Jabore
“Are you ready to be My disciple?” I hear the Lord say.
“Are you ready to be My disciple?”
“Are you truly ready to be My disciple?”
The Fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and as we come into this revelation more this year, we will be able to be disciplined and follow the Lords directions more precisely. As we are faithful in doing what He has asked us to do, it will bring a greater thrust and empowerment to ourselves personally and the body of Jesus Christ.
Many people fall away at this point as it all seems too hard. Jesus had this happen to Him a lot, it was a constant occurrence to Him. A lot of Christians these days think they are following Jesus, or are they?
Luke 14:26 clearly states, “If anyone comes to Me and does not hate his father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters, yes and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple, And whoever does not bear his cross and come after Me cannot be my disciple.
These my friends are fighting words, but we either have to believe these words or not believe. It’s that simple, yet so very complex.
I felt to look up the meaning of the word hate as it really does seem a hard word to take, especially when it’s your own loved family. This I believe is only when family sons and daughters come against our faith in Jesus Christ, and then the problems begin, and we will have to choose between them or Jesus. We can still love them but we hate the anti-Christ behaviour, and that’s when we must walk away, and when we love them that’s a very hard thing to do- heart wrenching for us.
Hate in the Australian Oxford dictionary means - Dislike intensely; be reluctant (to do something).
Hate from Strong’s Dictionary in Hebrew is satam- saw-tam - a prime root to lurk for, i.e. persecute- Hate, oppose self against.
Sane- saw-nay prime root; to hate (personally) enemy, foe.
In the Greek- miseo-mis-eh-‘o; from the primary miss (hatred); to detest (especially to persecute); to love less.
I believe to be a disciple it’s to do with our whole lifestyle, and how people influence us and how we respond. How are we treating people? Are our attitudes respecting towards each other? We need to ask ourselves, “Are we drinking too much? Are we spending more time with others instead of Jesus? Are there things in our life that are taking the place of Jesus? Are we enjoying and loving/lusting after people and other things more than going to Him and to be with Him?”
If we truly want to be free indeed, we need to feel comfortable in being discipled by Jesus, as those He loves He disciplines. I know if we, as His disciples, can keep on moving towards the disciplines of Christ, changing into His image more and more each day, we certainly will be free indeed. This also brings a protection around us.
In John 8:31 Jesus was talking to the Jews who believed Him (who believed they knew it all), Jesus said to them, “If you abide in My word, you are My disciples indeed, and you shall know the Truth and the truth shall make you free”.
. So how can we be free? I ask ?
. By the Truth.
. And who is going to bring this Truth?
. By being discipled.
I love that Jack Nicholson movie “A Few Good Men”, when Tom Cruise said, “I want the truth” and then when Jack Nicholson said to Tom Cruise “You can’t handle the Truth”. Can we handle the truth about ourselves and what needs to change? Or will we be one of those ones that Jesus was constantly surrounded by? They then had to walk away because they didn’t feel they could give up their old ways and thoughts and continue to follow and be His disciple.
You see most of us think we are not in bondage with our sin, we think we are in control of it but we are really not. It takes guts, courage and humility to hear the truth about us.
Can we hear the truth about us?
Jesus then goes on to answer them in verse 34, “Most assuredly, I say to you, whoever commits sin is a slave of sin. And a slave does not abide in the house forever, but a son abides forever. Therefore if the Son makes you free, you shall be free indeed.
Wow Jesus was so onto it wasn’t He. He really has just spelt it out, so if we continue in our sin, He has said ahead of time we cannot stay/ abide in His house forever, but a son who loves Him and is His disciple abides forever. Now that’s being free indeed.
So you see He knew it was going to be hard for us to choose. It is no surprise to Him. Of course He will never go against our will. He doesn’t jump up and down and say you can’t do this or that or else, He doesn’t get angry with us and throws His authority around, He just let’s us choose for ourselves, and wait’s for us .
Wow, what a loving, kind, forgiving God we think we serve and say ‘No’ to.
Are you going to be My disciple?
“Are you ready to be My disciple?” I hear the Lord say.
“Are you ready to be My disciple?”
“Are you truly ready to be My disciple?”

Made Strong in Our Weakness
by Jonothan Mill
God is calling Christians to deeper levels of brokenness, humility and complete trust in God. This has to be the core foundation of us coming to God and ministering out of God. If our motives and character are not in line with God’s truth and His heart, there is a separation and divide that must be bridged and can be done through a knowledge of our true condition.
Knowing the true condition of our heart is a powerful revelation, as it puts us in a perspective of how amazingly perfect God is and how weak we are and in need of His righteousness. It can take all our vain ideas and swap it for something far greater, a knowledge that we get to share in His purpose for us and a love for who He is.
When we are weak we can be honest before God and one another because we know our condition and can be healed far deeper than we could ever think was possible and become more whole in our being. It guards us against further delusion and brings us into right perspective and understanding of God and who He is.
2 Cor 13:4 - For though He was crucified through weakness, yet He liveth by the power of God. For we also are weak in Him, but we shall live with Him by the power of God toward you.
My declaration to you is God can do mighty works and incredible things through us, and as we head deeper into our calling both individually and corporately, we must understand that God is far more interested in the condition of our heart and character than any calling that we may have.
We could have a powerful calling but if love is not being perfected in us from a place of brokenness and weakness, we have to forget about calling for now and seek God anew as a healer and deliverer.
Public ministry has to be from a place of closeness and humility, if it isn’t, God will begin the process of stepping you down from your position. All positions and titles must be bent low to the knowledge of God, as it is all His anyway.
The enemy is out to devour whomever he can. If we don’t listen and obey God through sound biblical truth, our appointed leaders and from hearing Him clearly for ourselves, we are setting ourselves up for a fall and God does not want us to fall.
I believe God is going to directly speak to leaders (those in a position of responsibility) across the world about this issue, and if they do not take God seriously they will be forced by the hand of God out of their position, whether God placed them there or not.
I believe that the shake down will begin at the top, as it will become an example to the greater body of Christ, because God is far more serious about the person! This is God’s love to His people, He only ever wanted the best for us because His intent is perfect toward us. He is pure in all His ways.
God is about to entrust some people with anointings that will be world changing. Giftings and callings are serious and we need to take the Lord seriously because the Lord doesn’t want to clean up a mess we leave behind.
As the famous ‘Spiderman’ quote goes -“With great power comes great responsibility.”
I believe the church will begin to start moving, not just in the new thing, but also the re-tapping of the ancient wells, particularly in the areas of physical healings, bible teaching and the sense of community in the body of Christ.
Php 4:13 - “I can do ALL things through Christ who strengthens me.”
How incredible if we just lived these scriptures and how much of an example we would be if we moved and lived out of these things.
The will of God is a powerful thing, it can make the ordinary extraordinary. We are destined for so much, we have to find out what the fullness of living out of the resurrection life is all about.
We haven’t lived until we live this Gospel to the fullest.
What a AWESOME God we serve!! Yeehaw!!!

Awaken The Spirit - But Which Spirit?
by Glenice Mills
As a prophet, and a watchman for this nation of Australia, I declare a ‘high alert, code red,’ and a sounding of alarm bells like I’ve never heard before. Australia is in danger for we have grieved the heart of God. Those with eyes to see will know we have crossed a line as of midnight 2010. Doors of darkness have been released over Sydney particularly, but its impact and consequences will flow over the rest of Australia.
The last day of 2009 I was unsettled in my spirit, I had a sense of something changing, and a feeling of foreboding. I thought it was just me, but I knew deep down the Lord was going to show some things.
Every year since 2000 I have watched the fireworks at Sydney on television as I knew there was always something significant happening on this night. Every year there has been a ‘sign’ on the harbour bridge which was like a declaration over Sydney and Australia. For example, some of the signs in the past have been love, peace, a dove, and eternity. It is like the Lord speaking through these signs, hence why I was interested in what the Lord was showing. However this year’s fireworks was different. The Lord was silent. It was like His hand had been removed. I was ‘Lord, what have I done wrong that I have grieved your heart? I quietly sought the Lord from a place of ’search my heart O God and see if there be any offensive way in me’. Again the Lord was quiet. I thought I’d watch the fireworks, and maybe there was something in this that would show me what was wrong. I did not have the anticipation that I had previous years. I was reluctant to put the television on yet I knew something would be revealed. Little did I know what was going to be revealed and released.
The evening was titled ‘Awaken the spirit’. Emblazoned on the harbour bridge at various times was the yin yang, the ring of fire and the blue moon symbols. The Aborigines also held an indigenous smoking ceremony by the pylons under the Harbour Bridge. This was to cleanse the exclusion zone where the fireworks were held of ‘negative spirits‘. There were still and video projections on the eastern faces of the North and South pylons saying ‘Awaken the spirit’ of the 12 languages of the leading nations with the most population in Sydney. This was done to ‘emphasise the sense of community, acceptance and unity for the event‘. These twelve languages represented where ‘awaken the spirit’ was emblazoned included English, Gadigal, Arabic, Cantonese, French, Greek, Hindi, Italian, Korean, Russian, Samoan, Spanish, Dutch, Vietnamese, and Swahili.
It appears ‘right’ for it encourages the cultures of these people, however, a line was crossed, for we were not only embracing these people but we were saying ‘awaken the spirit’ of the culture of these nations. We were not only acknowledging these nations but also the religious gods that they serve. We have invoked spirits of worship of the dead. The question we need to ask is which spirit are we awakening? Which spirits of these nations were we invoking?
It was not the Holy Spirit, that is for sure!!! Clearly what was awakened had to have been asleep, in other word, lying dormant for the right time to come to life.
In the programme it said that ‘An Acknowledgment to Country’ will take place on the harbour to show our respect to the local Gadigal nation and all First Nations people, where the custodians ‘call up’ the first reveal of the Bridge Effect with a series of fireworks firings. It is interesting to note that the fireworks went for 12 minutes and there were 12 nations and their languages shown that night. 12 is the number of government. Government is about rulership, leadership, authority and positioning and this night a false government was set up.
This night this nation invoked the false gods and false religions of these nations and called down their deities. The result is a ‘wrong government’, rulership, authority positioning which has been brought forth. The door of evil has been released over Australia and it has happened on our watch!!! This is not my opinion, this happened as we ushered in a new year and a new decade.
Why am I writing this? This was the saddest and gravest day for this nation as there will be serious consequences to what occurred this night. I am grieved of heart, for I know we have opened a door for evil to be released.
What happened is an abomination in God’s sight!! He is grieved by the actions that took place, but He is more grieved for this nation as it will not stay a blessed nation.
This night the Lordship of Jesus Christ was challenged. There was a contending and warring in the spirit of the rulership of this nation. There was a contending in the spirit this night over who has ownership of this nation. This will manifest itself in the natural as ‘tribal fighting’ , fighting will rise up between the young people of these nations as they fight for positions of power and authority on the streets. There will be blood shed on the streets of Sydney as never seen before. This nation has been a blessed nation, but it is no longer God’s land. It has been taken over by dark forces of evil, and the enemy will manifest in ways that are vicious. The fighting will be so vicious that many lives will be lost.
We have come in agreement with lies of the enemy. There has been and will continue to appear to be a unity, but it is a false unity. There has been a joining of hands in the spirit, as these false religions, idolatrous practices and falsehood have linked together to set up a strong hold of false peace. We are in a time when it appears there is ‘peace, peace when there is no peace‘. Underneath the peace is a simmering cesspool of evil being stirred up, the intention is to bring division, warring factions and great distress and disruption never seen before. This will cause a ripple effect, starting in Sydney, moving out, impacting and affecting every facet of life as we have known it in Australia. There will be economic repercussions as word gets out that Australia is no longer a safe place and this will affect all tourism, hospitality, retail and every area of trade. We have become puffed up in pride as we are the only nation to have not been affected by the global economic crisis. We have not seen that this was the blessing of God, that it was by His hand that He put in right leaders in Government in previous years that placed Australia in a strong position to withstand the world economic crisis. However, this will change!!! The Lord will use other ways to bring this nation to its knees, and more importantly, to bring Australia back to the Lord and His ways.
Jeremiah 10: 6 -16
6. Inasmuch as there is none like You, O Lord, (You are great, and Your name is great in might),
7. Who would not fear You, O King of the nations? For this is your rightful due. For among all the wise men of the nations, and in all their kingdoms, there is none like You.
8. But they are altogether dull-hearted and foolish; A wooden idol is a worthless doctrine.
9. Silver is beaten into plates; it is brought from Tarshish, and gold from Uphaz, the work of the craftsman and of the hands of the metalsmith; Blue and purple are their clothing:; They are all the work of skilful men.
10. But the Lord is the true God; He is the living God and the everlasting King, At His wrath the earth will tremble, And the nations will not be able to endure His indignation.
11. Thus shall you say to them: “The gods that have made the heavens and the earth shall perish from the earth and from under these heavens.”
12. He has made the earth by His power. He has established the world by His wisdom,and has stretched out the heavens at His discretion.
13. When He mutters His voice, there is a multitude of waters in the heavens: “And He causes the vapours to ascend from the ends of the earth. He makes lightning for the rain, He brings the wind out of His treasuries.”
14. Everyone is dull-hearted, without knowledge; Every metal smith is put to shame by an image; For his moulded image is falsehood, and there is no breath in them.
15. They are futile, a work of errors; in the time of their punishment they shall perish.
16. The portion of Jacob is not like them, for He is the Maker of all things, and Israel is the tribe of His inheritance; the LORD of Hosts is His name.
Australia has known God’s grace and mercy, He has withheld His judgment but this time of blessing is coming to a close IF the church does not wake up, take a stand, speak for TRUTH and confront the evil that has been released over this nation.
Now is the time to act, we dare not stay in our place of complacency, and ‘she’ll be right mate’ for she will no longer be right, the nature and fabric of the unique way this nation has evolved will be changed forever if we do not rise up and stand for righteousness and for what is right and true!!! It is up to us. We can no longer remain quiet and accept this false sense of ‘peace’ for it is a false comfort, a false way of being and living and if we do not make a stand the consequences will be devastating. It will change the ‘very fabric’ of this nation. This is the Lord’s word, not mine.
What is happening does not surprise God. It is part of His plan for this nation, however, He is looking for a people who are His, who will stand in the gap and repent and pray that what the enemy has planned will not come to pass.
We, the church of Australia, cannot stay apathetic and complacent, it is time to rise up. This is not a time to be dull-hearted, but to be stirred into action, to declare this nation belongs to the Lord, to declare that Jesus Christ is Lord over Australia and every plan and tactic of the enemy will fail.
The Lord is issuing a challenge at this time, whether we will stand by and see this nation taken over by demonic forces or rise up and fight, fight for truth, speaking and declaring the Lordship of Jesus Christ.
This is a warning, I sense warning, warning, warning!!!
Are we going to stay asleep on our watch? Are we going to stand by and see this nation being taken over by these demonic forces? Are we going to rise up and fight, fight for the Lordship of Jesus Christ to have His rightful place as King of Kings and Lord of Lords over this nation.
We need to cry out to the Lord for His forgiveness where we have allowed this evil to come and take a false authority position over Australia. We need His mercy - Lord have mercy on this land, upon the people of this nation. Lord withhold your hand of judgment. Forgive us for our complacency, our apathy, where we have become dull-hearted and sat back and allowed these evil powers to reign.
Lord we come against every false peace, where there has been a false unity, a false joining of hands and where false religions have been exalted.
Lord I cry out to you for mercy, have mercy upon us, I pray!!
In Jesus Name,
Amen

However, this will change!!! The Lord will use other ways to bring this nation to its knees, and more importantly, to bring Australia back to the Lord and His ways.
Jeremiah 10: 6 -16
6. Inasmuch as there is none like You, O Lord, (You are great, and Your name is great in might),
7. Who would not fear You, O King of the nations? For this is your rightful due. For among all the wise men of the nations, and in all their kingdoms, there is none like You.
8. But they are altogether dull-hearted and foolish; A wooden idol is a worthless doctrine.
9. Silver is beaten into plates; it is brought from Tarshish, and gold from Uphaz, the work of the craftsman and of the hands of the metalsmith; Blue and purple are their clothing:; They are all the work of skilful men.
10. But the Lord is the true God; He is the living God and the everlasting King, At His wrath the earth will tremble, And the nations will not be able to endure His indignation.
11. Thus shall you say to them: “The gods that have made the heavens and the earth shall perish from the earth and from under these heavens.”
12. He has made the earth by His power. He has established the world by His wisdom,and has stretched out the heavens at His discretion.
13. When He mutters His voice, there is a multitude of waters in the heavens: “And He causes the vapours to ascend from the ends of the earth. He makes lightning for the rain, He brings the wind out of His treasuries.”
14. Everyone is dull-hearted, without knowledge; Every metal smith is put to shame by an image; For his moulded image is falsehood, and there is no breath in them.
15. They are futile, a work of errors; in the time of their punishment they shall perish.
16. The portion of Jacob is not like them, for He is the Maker of all things, and Israel is the tribe of His inheritance; the LORD of Hosts is His name.
Australia has known God’s grace and mercy, He has withheld His judgment but this time of blessing is coming to a close IF the church does not wake up, take a stand, speak for TRUTH and confront the evil that has been released over this nation.
Now is the time to act, we dare not stay in our place of complacency, and ‘she’ll be right mate’ for she will no longer be right, the nature and fabric of the unique way this nation has evolved will be changed forever if we do not rise up and stand for righteousness and for what is right and true!!! It is up to us. We can no longer remain quiet and accept this false sense of ‘peace’ for it is a false comfort, a false way of being and living and if we do not make a stand the consequences will be devastating. It will change the ‘very fabric’ of this nation. This is the Lord’s word, not mine.
What is happening does not surprise God. It is part of His plan for this nation, however, He is looking for a people who are His, who will stand in the gap and repent and pray that what the enemy has planned will not come to pass.
We, the church of Australia, cannot stay apathetic and complacent, it is time to rise up. This is not a time to be dull-hearted, but to be stirred into action, to declare this nation belongs to the Lord, to declare that Jesus Christ is Lord over Australia and every plan and tactic of the enemy will fail.
The Lord is issuing a challenge at this time, whether we will stand by and see this nation taken over by demonic forces or rise up and fight, fight for truth, speaking and declaring the Lordship of Jesus Christ.
This is a warning, I sense warning, warning, warning!!!
Are we going to stay asleep on our watch? Are we going to stand by and see this nation being taken over by these demonic forces? Are we going to rise up and fight, fight for the Lordship of Jesus Christ to have His rightful place as King of Kings and Lord of Lords over this nation.
We need to cry out to the Lord for His forgiveness where we have allowed this evil to come and take a false authority position over Australia. We need His mercy - Lord have mercy on this land, upon the people of this nation. Lord withhold your hand of judgment. Forgive us for our complacency, our apathy, where we have become dull-hearted and sat back and allowed these evil powers to reign.
Lord we come against every false peace, where there has been a false unity, a false joining of hands and where false religions have been exalted.
Lord I cry out to you for mercy, have mercy upon us, I pray!!
In Jesus Name,
Amen
