Hearts Hardening and Growing Cold

by Belinda Jabore

I saw an onslaught of small to medium meteorites coming at us this year and hitting us (the body of Christ).
On asking the Lord what this is, I believe He showed me that this year there was going to be much testing and trials and hearts hardening and growing cold towards the Lord and people. There will have to be a greater level of obedience to the Lord and dying to oneself and to the things we thought were going to happen. Some Apostles and Prophets have been through this already and are out the other side but it will come to the body of Christ this year in a larger scale and we will feel like we are getting bombarded with this stuff to distract us from our call and focus on the Lord. But the Lord wants us to be pre-warned about these things which will in fact bring us closer to Him.
These things that will come against our mind, our will, our heart and our emotions in the way of Disappointments; Bitterness; Resentment; Grief; Sorrow; Anxieties; Sickness; Depression; Feeling like we will loose our mind; Things not going the way we thought they would go; False and ungodly expectations towards others and the ones you hold closest (letting that go); Loved ones doing the wrong thing against you; Finances stretched to the max and little of them, (a glimpse of a Job experience) and the loss of friends and things we love more than the Lord. The intent if we let it, is to bring a hardening of our hearts and turning cold towards the Lord which allows in unbelief, bitterness, resentment and unforgiveness to reside in our hearts. We will say things like: “How could this have happened to me? Why is this happening to me and my family? Lord, what is going on?” We will feel like fainting and giving up but I want to encourage you not to give up and keep focused on the Lord. Running into Him and not away from Him and even though we feel we can’t feel Him or see Him through these things, be assured that He is at hand and with you in it.

Any of the things above that I have mentioned - take them, feel them, don’t just put on a ‘stiff upper lip’ and move on - examine them as to why they are there and your reaction to them. Separate the issue from the person and confess them to the Lord. Sort the issues out with Him. Refuse and repent of them if they do not line up with His heart and apply His promises and His Words to them. Say to Him, “I don’t know why this has happened Lord but I choose to trust and hope in You no
matter what.”

Philippians 4:4-14 I have had this scripture on me for at least 2 years now and in the tough times it got me through even when I thought I wouldn’t make it but you see the Lord guarded my heart and mind in Him, either I believe that He gave me that word or not. It is that simple but that complex. I would picture Jesus and the power of His Holy Spirit put His hand over my heart and mind when I felt like I was going to loose it. When I would panic about being sick or becoming anxious over an issue (the ‘what ifs’). I would picture Him there knowing He was there with me in it and through it. When things seemed hopeless He was my only hope. He was always faithful to me and would always rescue me from myself mostly. Unfortunately some of these things do not go away straight away but don’t be fearful of them. Jesus himself was acquainted with grief and sorrow and all these things that I have mentioned above (the ‘what ifs’) but He took them on the cross for us. He overcome them for us today! We know this in our head but is it in our heart? Even though we may feel weak and defeated and have failed. The truth is the Lord has not left us in the trials and testings as He will never leave us in our darkest hour or forsake us in our darkest hour. He is with us in and through the trials and testings and this will show what we are made of. In our weakness He is strong! He is in it with us and we must look for Him in it.

Weaknesses are then turned and they become an agent of strength in Him. Psalm 116:15 says Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of His saints. So we will go through a greater dying to oneself daily further and further into Him, not letting anything or any one stop us. He will deliver us in due time. We will have a lot of deliverance this year too if we let Him. Things must drop off as well as anything that will hinder us from His presence. Then we will walk into our promised land that He has promised us if we are willing to die to anything that would keep us from Him and whatever these trials and testings throw at us. We must cry out in our hearts and say to our Lord Jesus, our Father and the Holy Spirit, “I can’t live if living is without you” as the Harry Nilsson song states and “I can’t do anything unless you are with me Lord” and humble ourselves under the Mighty hand of God. He resists the proud but gives grace to the humble.

Keep your eyes on Him and keep pressing forward to your call never giving up. If you do not know your call, keep on fixing your eyes and ears on Him and hang (belong) with the body of Christ that he has put you with, in relationship with, not forsaking the assembly of the saints. Be-long…….. Never give up! Lighten the load of life’s pressures if you have to and keep it simple. Whatever He has called you to, do not give up just because of people and circumstances that come around you and please don’t blame the Lord and turn your heart away from Him. One of the things to be aware of in the times ahead are getting bitter and being resentful in our hearts. Bitterness is a wormwood that the Bible speaks about that we are to be aware of. People and loved ones’ choices and circumstances may do things to you but people and loved ones can get us caught up in the bitterness and resentment of it all (if we let it). It might not be our fault but their choices will affect us if we let them. If someone does something wrong or not what you wanted, or how you would have liked it done to you - we then can become disappointed in the outcome and become bitter. Sometimes the other party can more easily move on and repent and forget about it and what they have done leaving us with the disappointment/bitterness of it all.

We must move on and not get left holding the ball of bitterness, resentment and unforgiveness which then pollutes us bringing in torment, self pity, harassment to our mind and lack of peace in our heart and mind. This then affects our relationship with that person and the Lord leaving our hearts cold. Did you know that our heart actually thinks! Selah. It’s a very big thinker, our heart, and the Bible says to guard our heart with all diligence for out of it flows the issues of life. The issues of life come through people and a lot of the time those closest to us. Bitterness comes from disappointments and expectations of someone or something, expectations we thought were going to happen. If we are truly with the Lord and work through it with Him this will not affect us. If it comes in we must give it to the Lord quickly over and over until we release it to Him fully.
Smith Wigglesworth said, ” One of the greatest mercies that you will have will be a revelation to your heart of how to get rid of yourself.” It would be wise for us to keep short accounts and be quick to have true repentance in our heart of the issues that can come through those closest to us, in our work place, with our husband, wife, children etc…. Let your gentleness be made known to all men and say the Lord is at hand. Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to Him and move on, keeping in mind, some things take longer than others do, depending what it is but if we have the Lord there in it with us directing us we can’t loose. Remember it is a process he will deliver us in time - keep saying I know You are with me Lord even though I can’t feel You in it yet but by faith I know You are there. Trust in Him, Hope in Him and rely and believe He is there. When trials and testings come God will be judging some things to see what you are made of, then you will come out as gold and you will realise that things cannot touch you as they used to do.
You can do it in Him.

Prophetic Word for FRANCE

by Ruth Paddon

The fields are ripe for the harvest - Disillusionment has set in but I am allowing this vacuum, that only I can fill. I will draw those to me who will know me and obey me. There are many who are searching for Me in this land.


My cry to this nation is Repentance from dead works. You think you are rich and have no need of me. Come to me the well of living water. The Fire of God will purify the church. Spiritual streams will spring up across this land. Behold I stand at the door and knock. Those who hear My voice and will let Me in will receive the living water I have promised them.



I have seen the seeds of the martyr’s blood sown into your soil. I will multiply the increase. From this sacrifice multitudes will come to Me because of the sowing of these seeds. My church needs to continually pray for righteousness in the government at all levels. As My prophets and apostles rise up in the church and the market place, My church will be purified and powerful through the right governmental authority and doctrine.

The Concept of LAW

by Tony Clark

There are many laws in existence that relate to humanity and the world around us. Laws of nature; state and federal laws; religious laws and rituals; moral laws and the law of God for example. Some people think they are a law unto themselves. Laws are set into place to protect something or someone. For example without the law of gravity we would all float off into space and living on this planet would never have been possible. Laws are meant to preserve things. Laws are meaningless without an enforcer, and without a penalty or consequence for breaking the law. Lawlessness abounds when there is no fear of God or of consequences, because seemingly I can transgress the law and no penalty is forthcoming.
There is also rebellion present and disregard towards God at the base level of human fallen nature. But we are told in the Bible that at the appointed time (which is an exact, precise and predetermined time) all will be judged and held accountable for their sin (transgression of the law) and also that God’s patience although great has a limit and the time comes when He judges situations and people, whether they know it is the judgement of God or not is another story.
God has made His law clear and has documented it within His Word. But an understanding of this law or the requirement of God upon us can be misunderstood if we have not learnt this law. Some laws are obvious to most, even without being taught i.e. thou shalt not kill. Although some do not have a knowledge or feeling of moral law, for example some serial killers, others continually rationalise their actions despite the pang of their conscience, causing their conscience to be seared so that it no longer condemns them of wrong.

This is the reason for laws: that a standard might be set, and governed by an authority who ensure penalty for transgression of that law, to maintain order and freedom in society and protection for its citizens. The highest law, is the law of Love. To “love” God and each other is to fulfil the whole law of God. It is not within our fallen nature to obey the law of God naturally. It is within our nature to serve ourselves. It is the conversion of the soul to Jesus Christ and the infilling with the Spirit of Christ that enables us to fulfil the law of God because we receive His nature. We then need to learn to deny our old nature and instead learn to do His will as it is revealed to us by Him and walk in newness of life according to the new nature within us. This does take time, and God chastens His own, and corrects, and purges them of sin. This is a process. By the renewing of the mind we are transformed and made able to live His Word and Will, and our conscience can be restored to a state of health according to His law, and no longer distorted or defiled by the rationalisation of man’s behaviour or incorrect views of what is right and wrong. The Bible says to be mature is to know the difference between right and wrong, “But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.” Hebrews 5:14.
A mature believer is a discerning believer, who by practise, has become able to divide between right and wrong – which interestingly enough shows that they have come into harmony with the Spirit of Christ in them, this nature, that shows them a new way, by the renewing of the mind by the word of God.

“For the Word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.” Hebrews 4:12
Renewing of the mind by the Word of God (actual truth) is essential, because all of us have learnt different things, have made different conclusions about what truth is and about reality. Without an absolute standard there is no truth or reality, but only perceived truth and reality. And without an absolute standard of right and wrong, there is in effect no actual right or wrong, only man made laws and systems to suit mans’ own ends. So it all really comes down to what you believe. If you value and honour and believe the Bible to be the actual word of God that reveals His righteous requirements and truth, then you have an absolute standard to measure yourself by. If you don’t believe this then you are a law unto yourself and in effect lawless, in your own eyes, but if in actual fact God does exist and the Bible IS his revealed Will, then it doesn’t matter what you believe – you will be judged by God according to His Law/ Word/ Justice and choosing.
If God be real…we better obey. Because if He exists, then His ordained consequences for sin will be the punishment for our transgression whether we like it or not. If He doesn’t exist, all well and good, we have no Judge. All of the excuses under the sun will not suffice in that day, for God Himself says:
“For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.” Romans 1:21
God has made a way that we can be freed from the guilt of our sin, in that He sent His Son, Jesus Christ, to pay the price for us, the penalty of sin being death. If God exists, and the Bible is His Word, then in the end it will be the way He has said, not the way we have rationalised or wanted it to be. If He is not real, and the Bible is not the Word of God, then there’s nothing to worry about – where God is concerned, although there is still plenty to worry about, for we are a mere accident, and have no future hope other than nothingness. Some may have made peace with that, but if He is real, that peace will be short lived. This all comes down to our way or His way. If He is real, our way, if it opposes His way, is sin. If He is not, then there is only our way, and it matters not.

Time of Victory - For The Obedient

by Glenice Mills

There are many prophetic words ‘out there’ at this time, the beginning of a new year. There has been a theme – it is a year of breakthrough.
It is good to know the seasons and times we live in, however there are a few things I think we in the body of Christ need to consider.

We are all excited about the ‘New Year’, but we need to look at the motive behind what this means.
The Lord knows the seasons and times and if this is so, does He think ‘Oh good it is the New Year, 2014?’ or does He look at time from the big picture of His plans and purposes for us on earth right now?

What makes December 31st different from January 1st?
In God’s scheme of things the days, times and seasons are in His hands.
Perhaps the New Year is more about us wanting things to change, rather than the Lord suddenly, as a result of a night of revelry and prayerful demands deciding He will do a new thing?

Perhaps this is very prideful of us and a bit presumptuous to think that we can tell God what we think He needs to do because it is a New Year? In fact if we are not careful we can cross over to divination – ‘calling up what we want rather than seeking the Lord about what He is wanting’.

We as the body of Christ need to examine our motives for wanting what we want just because it is a New Year. It is a day in a calendar and in fact has nothing to do with God’s seasons and times. Yes we can perhaps claim it as a defining day, a new day of a new year according to a Gregorian calendar. But how much ‘power’ and ‘influence’ should this bring on our lives. Perhaps we need to see things with God’s eyes?

There has been a consensus among the body of Christ that everybody had a difficult ‘last year’. I prefer to call it a time rather than a year of testing and trials. It we think about it, the difficulties didn’t start ‘magically’ on the 1st January 2013. Many were going through difficulties earlier than January 2013, and some may not have experienced difficulties until later in the year. Does that make 2013 a difficult year? Wouldn’t it be better to say we have had a difficult season or time?

Let’s not forget a year is about our time frame rather than God’s time frame. He sees in seasons and times. In fact we need to know the Prophetic time we live in rather than our time. We are to know the seasons and times we live in, and this is where the prophet can and must speak about them. However I wonder if it is incorrect for a prophet to say in the 2014 time frame this will happen or will not happen?

We must be careful we don’t make blanket statements and say all are in this season. Ecclesiastes says there is a season and a time for every purpose so what is one person/ministry/nation’s season may not be what is happening to another. We can have a sense of what God is doing in His church but we dare not make a statement for all when in fact it might be for most. That puts shame and guilt on those who may not be experiencing what is happening to others.

Ecclesiastes 3:1-8

To everything there is a season, a time for every purpose under heaven:

A time to be born, And a time to die;
A time to plant, And a time to pluck what is planted;
A time to kill, And a time to heal;
A time to break down, And a time to build up;
A time to weep, And a time to laugh;
A time to mourn, And a time to dance;
A time to cast away stones, And a time to gather stones;
A time to embrace, And a time to refrain from embracing;
A time to gain, And a time to lose;
A time to keep, And a time to throw away;
A time to tear, And a time to sew;
A time to keep silence, And a time to speak;
A time to love, And a time to hate;
A time of war, And a time of peace.

How many Christians are making new year’s resolutions believing that if they are faithful to consistently diet, exercise or what ever resolution they make, that God will endorse it?
Again who says that making a new year’s resolution is right in God. We all know our areas of weakness and what areas the Lord wants us to change. Therefore wouldn’t it be more accurate to pray, and to ask for the Lord’s help to overcome?
I wonder if ‘New Year’s Resolutions’ are actually right in God? I don’t think so.

We have to be careful that we don’t succumb to the world’s ways and come in agreement with them. It is very subtle.

So what is the Lord saying to us at this time?
Yes most Christians have been through difficulties in recent times. Many have spoken of 2013 being a year of great trials.

This is because we in the body of Christ have been going through a great transition time. There has been a contracting, a stretching and a time of deep forging that has produced great pain.

Transition is also a time of labour when a woman gives birth. This is the time of full dilation of the cervix and a change of action to push to bring to birth. We have in fact been in a season of birth pangs. There is always great discomfort, and a wanting to give up and go back to how it was before.
That has been the test for many. It has in fact been a season of opportunities – opportunity to push through, opportunity to give up, opportunity to sabotage what has been put in place by God, opportunity to run away from God and many other opportunities to walk in obedience or to choose to compromise and walk in disobedience.

We know we are in a season of the apostle and prophet. What we forget is their role is to equip the saints. If we are to adequately equip, then we must be trained. All training involves pain at some level.
God is concerned about our character – our integrity, our love of Truth and choosing to walk in obedience to what He requires of us.
The Lord is looking for a remnant – one’s who will stand for righteousness and truth no matter the cost.

For many it has been a time of war, but the next season is a time of peace.
When the Israelites were obedient there was peace on all sides. So it will be for those who have passed tests in recent difficult times.
They have warred for themselves, for others and for their nations and there is a reaping of rewards for their obedience.
We are coming into a time of victory. For there to be victory there had to have been a war. When war ends there is celebration. There is a new freedom and liberty. The constraints have been lifted. There are new beginnings.

However there is a condition to this word – time of victory. Victory will come to those who have been obedient to yield to the dealings of God in this past season, with a willingness to give up those areas the Lord wants us to let go of.
That is why it has been so difficult. A line has been drawn – those who have fully yielded to the Lord, and those who have chosen to walk their own path.
Rewards are coming to the faithful – not that they have asked or expected rewards but the Lord has seen. Expect the unexpected in this next season. Don’t hold onto old ways of doing things for He is doing a new thing. Many words have gone out about the ‘new thing’ however we have often had wrong expectations because the motive has been about self-promotion. The new thing will be obvious to those who have eyes to see.

Know that He is God!!!
Nothing, that is NO THING that has been built by the hands of man will stand in coming times. That which has been built on the rock – Jesus Christ – will stand.
By their fruit you will know them.
Watch and see what the Lord will do in coming times. Be ready for an exciting journey – one that will bring joy to the hearts of those who are battle weary and weary in well doing. This is your season to shine!!!

The True Living Water

by Tony Clark

I love that God revealed from the beginning to the end in the Bible. A time line of earth’s history. God cares about His people, He wants them to know Him. Closeness and intimacy has always been His greatest desire! Men in their fallen, fearful, arrogant, proud and rebellious state, resist God and turn to their own way for fulfilment and getting their needs met, but they don’t realise only the PURE LIVING WATER can satisfy the soul.

God is not out to condemn you, take away what you care about, or put restricting laws or burdens on you. You are already bound! You are already restricted!
Being BIRTHED into His kingdom by the true revelation of His love for you, and being made TRULY ALIVE by His power causes men to see for the first time, just like Neo in the Matrix.
Do you want to live in a dream world, a world that just keeps you distracted and deceived enough to make you think this is LIFE? When you are AWOKEN by a very real God, who brought everything into existence, including your life, the scales fall off your eyes and you don’t just begin to see things differently - that’s just a by-product. You ARE different. NEW. Clean. The difference is so extreme that it is likened to being dead and then made ALIVE. And when you are alive to God, which means you are consciously aware of His presence and person, at a genuinely interactive level, you will/can never be the same.

God loves you. He is not angry or vengeful toward you, he sent His Son (God born in human flesh) to die for you??? Does that sound like ILL WILL? God knows that you are lost without Him. You were made to be together. Don’t listen to false religions that will tell you that you can get to/ become God some other way!
Jesus Christ is the DOOR - no one comes to the Father except by Him. He died for your sin - you fall WAY short of the holiness and majesty of God, and sin every day by going your own way in the face of Truth.

If a man repents of his own wicked ways, and humbles himself and recognises that Jesus who KNEW NO SIN died for you so that you could be saved and brought back into relationship with God, by trusting in His sacrifice to pay for your sin - not relying on your OWN self righteousness which is unable to meet the required standard - you will be encountered by God. I did, 17 years ago. I was addicted, broken, hurting, self conscious, lost and afraid, but God saved me by a revelation of His love for me. My eyes were made OPEN, and I was filled with newness. I was made alive to God. And all these years later I must say, I have dug, and I have sought after this God that revealed Himself to me, and I have found TREASURE like I never thought possible. I could write 50 books about what has happened in my life due to meeting my Maker. I have found what I was looking for. And every well of promised nourishment that the world has to offer, is but an illusion, so fresh to the taste just like the real thing when you first find it - because you are THIRSTY! But as you continue to drink this water that promised so much, it dries up and no longer quenches your thirst. JESUS CHRIST is the only TRUE LIVING WATER. He said, in His own words “the water I give, when you drink it, YOU WILL NEVER THIRST AGAIN.” We need water to survive. That’s why the bible days Jesus didn’t come into the world to condemn the world, but to save it. And that “For God SO LOVED the world that He sent His only begotten Son, that WHOEVER believes on Him, will not PERISH but have EVERLASTING LIFE.” (the result of living water). God says you are perishing. You try your hardest to survive in the false waters that are only a trick to keep you from the true, and the end is death, because just like in the desert, without water you die. This is the context that God declares you are perishing. But Jesus came with the true living water, so that “you may not perish, but in drinking, and continuing to drink of His true water (His words) you WILL NOT PERISH but have ETERNAL LIFE.” It’s a promise. God CANNOT lie. Bless you.

Word for South Africa

by Glenice Mills
15th December 2013

Yesterday the Lord spoke to me reminding me of a word He gave me in 2010.
The world’s eyes are on South Africa again with the death of Nelson Mandela.
The following word is an encouragement from the Lord for this time as it comes into a new season. It is a defining time for this great nation.

17th June 2010
I am mindful the world’s eyes are on South Africa at this time with the football World Cup. The reality is God is highlighting South Africa because it is on His heart.
Eighteen months ago the Lord spoke to me some things He is doing and wanting to do in this nation. At different times since He has also shown me His heart.
As a prophet, there are times to be quiet and watch, and then there is time to speak.
The time to speak and to share what the Lord has shown is now.

I have a particularly strong alert and concern for South Africa.

This is what the Lord shared with me concerning South Africa:

You are a nation of leaders, leaders of many ages - old and young.
Now is the time for key leaders in Government and in the church to arise, both male and female, young and old!!
It is time to take a stand! To take a stand for justice against the injustice taking place in many African countries! The Lord showed me Zimbabwe: leaders must speak up at this time and confront the evil taking place in this nation of Zimbabwe.
It is time to arise, to speak, to raise a cry of injustice, injustice, injustice!! Now is the time, do not hold back, do not sit back, make a stand, make a stand now!
I sense a real alert, that if they do not, there will be repercussions for South Africa.
Some of what is happening in Zimbabwe will come on South Africa, there will be renewed unrest, lawlessness will increase, there will be an increase of famine, hardship and pestilence that will hit like never before. It is not a time to tarry, but a time to rise up. The Lord says come away from your former shame, this is not who you are as a nation now! You are to forerun, to go ahead, and to be instruments of change in Africa, to be ones that other nations will look to lead the way forward.
The Lord says to South Africa and to its leaders:

Isaiah 53: 2-8

2. Enlarge the place of your tent,
And let them stretch out the curtains of your dwellings,
Do not spare;
lengthen your cords,
and strengthen your stakes.
3. For you shall expand to the right and to the left,
And your descendants will inherit the nations,
And make the desolate cities inhabited.
4. Do not fear, for you will not be ashamed;
Neither be disgraced for you will not be put to shame;
For you will forget the shame of your youth,
And will not remember the reproach of your widowhood anymore.
5. For your maker is your husband,
The Lord of hosts is His name;
And your Redeemer is the Holy One of Israel;
He is called the God of the whole earth.
6. For the Lord has called you like a woman forsaken and grieved in spirit,
Like a youthful wife when you were refused,” says your God.
7. For a mere moment I have forsaken you,
but with great mercies I will gather you.
8. With a little wrath I hid My face from you for a moment;
But with everlasting kindness I will have mercy on you,”
says the Lord, your Redeemer.

Again, now is the time to come away from your former shame.
South Africa, arise from the ashes, arise from the ashes, arise from the ashes!!!
Arise, Arise, Arise!!! Take your stand as a forerunning nation; break through the hardship, poverty, and class divisions.
Apostles of South Africa come out of the dust, out of your hardship, out of the constraints put upon you because of race. Break out! Break out! Break out!!!
Prophets of South Africa it is time to speak, time to declare truth, time to be in position to arise to your call and destiny. Don’t hold back. I come against all lies of the enemy that says you are less than. Lord send your living water on a dry and thirsty land, on a dry and thirsty people, who need your sustenance, who need your life giving power. You are a nation where bloodshed and injustice ruled and it is now time to take your place as a leading African nation. It is time to fight for justice, to speak justice - to those who do not have a voice - as you did not have a voice.
Speak out justice - time for justice for other African nations who need a voice where they are unable to speak. Arise out of your shame; time to come out of your shame.
Lord move by your Holy Spirit - move your breath upon the dust and bring that which is dead to life.

Ezekiel 37:4-6

Again He said to me, ‘Prophesy to these bones, and say to them,
‘O dry bones, hear the word of the Lord!
Thus says the Lord God to these bones:

“SURELY I WILL CAUSE BREATH TO ENTER INTO YOU, AND YOU SHALL LIVE. I WILL PUT SINEWS ON YOU AND BRING FLESH UPON YOU, COVER YOU WITH SKIN AND PUT BREATH IN YOU; AND YOU SHALL LIVE.
THEN YOU SHALL KNOW THAT I AM THE LORD.’’

Lord I declare these words over South Africa!!!

There are many apostles and ones holding leadership positions who are sitting on the fence. Now is the time to get off the fence and speak. Do not be silent, speak!!
The Lord is going to expand many leaders into uncomfortable places, a place that is vulnerable and unknown, which will require great faith. It is a time of faith, to step out of the boat and onto the water. The Lord will be with you; He will lead you and guide you.
For some apostles in South Africa there is coming a time when your leadership will bring a challenge to the status quo and will place many people in uncomfortable situations. It is time to stir up ones who hold positions of authority who have sat back and allowed evil to take place, who have agreed with compromise, who have not wanted to rock the boat. Now is not the time to be complacent.
It is time to take off old thinking, old mindsets, for the Lord wants to increase your vision, He wants to open up opportunities and divine encounters that will bring about radical changes of direction for many.

There are apostles who now need to arise and come into key positions of governance both in this nation and also in local areas of influence.
Now is the time to influence. You are positioned to influence, to bring change for the better to bring renewed righteousness where sin has abounded.
The enemy will be ruthless but take heart; you are serving the King of Kings.
He will anoint you, He will enable you.
You will see Him move on your behalf. You will see divine encounters, divine miracles taking place before your eyes.
You will see God rescue you from great danger, you will see Him come and intervene so His purposes can be outworked in South Africa and other African nations.
It is time for the women of South Africa to arise. I see young women even now quietly being voices of influence, working away often unnoticed. They are confronting the corruption and lawlessness that is ripping people off and holding them in poverty and in great bondage. They are confronting issues of abuse of children, abuse of women and injustice where these abuses are hidden and justice is not being served. Be encouraged, the Lord is with you.

The Lord wants to bring a divine coming together of the women of America, Australasia (Australia, New Zealand and the South Pacific Islands) and South Africa.
The Lord is highlighting you women and there is something He wants to do to bring us together. There is something about us arising together.
Lord I see what You want to do so Lord I ask that You will fulfil all You plan and purpose for this to come about. Position us ready for the call to come together.
Prepare the hearts of those you want to stand together to be an active part of Your army of women that You are raising up at this time.

South Africa, you are a nation that will shine brightly as an example to other nations.
You are vibrant, full of colour, full of the joy of the Lord.
This is infectious and will impact and bring other nations that have known great sorrow to come to a place of great joy.
So speak up, speak up, speak up!!!!

BLAH! BLAH! BLAH!

by Belinda Jabore

I was saying to the Lord many Australian people (in their many nationalities) all have an opinion.  They all have an opinion and very strong opinions, I might add, and they all have a right to their opinions but people will not put their words and life where their mouth is?
I felt the Lord say back to me their words and opinions are cheap, and unless they line up with Mine and My word they are just their opinions. We tend to say all these words and they fall into the pit of nothingness not accomplishing anything or really helping anyone – worse still bringing negativity. Not bringing life, but death. Words words words!!! Opinions opinions opinions!!! Blah blah blah!!! Then I heard the Lord say, “You will be held accountable for your words and opinions, how you shared them, how you valued them and if they lined up with Mine and if you did something to make a change.” The Lord had my undivided attention.  He then reminded me of a throw-away line of a politician who stated, “If you say something long/often enough - people will eventually believe it.” Interestingly as I did some research as to who might have made this statement I discovered that it came from a speech by none other than Adolf Hitler.  Interesting that mostly we do not take the time to think what and where these quotes come from and the heart behind them. How sad that we have these people in Government - there is good and bad in everything and we have to look at the person not the political party and look at what they believe and if they are standing for God’s stand on these issues and if their opinions are valid or not.   This is a piece taken out of Wikipedia which I found interesting?

”Big Lie”
from Wikipedia, the free encyclopaedia
Jump to: navigation, search
For the 1951 anti-communist propaganda film, see The Big Lie.
The Big Lie (German: Große Lüge) is a propaganda technique. The expression was coined by Adolf Hitler, when he dictated his 1925 book Mein Kampf, about the use of a lie so “colossal” that no one would believe that someone “could have the impudence to distort the truth so infamously.” Hitler asserted the technique was used by Jews to unfairly blame Germany’s loss in World War I on German Army officer Erich Ludendorff.

Hitler’s use of the expression
The source of Big Lie technique is this passage, taken from Chapter 10 of James Murphy’s translation of Mein Kampf: But it remained for the Jews, with their unqualified capacity for falsehood, and their fighting comrades, the Marxists, to impute responsibility for the downfall precisely to the man who alone had shown a superhuman will and energy in his effort to prevent the catastrophe which he had foreseen and to save the nation from that hour of complete overthrow and shame. By placing responsibility for the loss of the world war on the shoulders of Ludendorff they took away the weapon of moral right from the only adversary dangerous enough to be likely to succeed in bringing the betrayers of the Fatherland to Justice.
All this was inspired by the principle–which is quite true within itself–that in the big lie there is always a certain force of credibility; because the broad masses of a nation are always more easily corrupted in the deeper strata of their emotional nature than consciously or voluntarily; and thus in the primitive simplicity of their minds they more readily fall victims to the big lie than the small lie, since they themselves often tell small lies in little matters but would be ashamed to resort to large-scale falsehoods. It would never come into their heads to fabricate colossal untruths, and they would not believe that others could have the impudence to distort the truth so infamously. Even though the facts which prove this to be so may be brought clearly to their minds, they will still doubt and waver and will continue to think that there may be some other explanation. For the grossly impudent lie always leaves traces behind it, even after it has been nailed down, a fact which is known to all expert liars in this world and to all who conspire together in the art of lying.
—Adolf Hitler, Mein Kampf, volume I

"We must never forget what the Jews went through and how they paid with their lives when the world ’sat on its hands’ watching and let it happen.

This I believe is a prophetic sign and reflection of the state of what we are under in Australia that we are so bombarded with untruths and judgements, which are in the form of lies and opinions.

The word opinion means:  1. A view or judgement formed about something, not necessarily based on fact or knowledge. 2. The beliefs or views of a large number or majority of people about a particular thing. 3. A belief or judgement that rests on grounds insufficient to produce complete certainty.

Most of these opinions are not based on God’s statutes and commandments and His thoughts and heart. We are a bit like a frog in the water that eventually gets boiled to death and we do not feel it till it is too late. There are a lot of things that are going on at the moment that God is not pleased with such as the refugee issues /boat people, abortion, euthanasia, violence against women, same sex marriage issues who are trying to be married which is a sacred covenant between a man and a woman before God. Why I ask when most of these men and women do not follow God want to have a sacred God covenant in their life? Maybe deep down they do want to follow God? Or do they? Or do they just want to have something that is just not theirs to have? Marriage.
True Christians must make a stand for these issues and make a change and speak up on the truth and opinions of God’s law and what He says. If it does not line up with God’s word or commands then we should do all we can as Christ like people to stop it.  If we do not stand up and say something everyone else will and Australia is in danger of falling more into the hands of un-Godly opinions. We have already allowed these things to affect us in Australia. We do not have to follow any other countries but make strong moral standards of our own to be heard loud and clear. If good men and women do nothing evil will prosper a quote by Dr Martin Luther King.
If we go blindly and do not search out the truth of an individual’s heart and find out what he/she believes we will choose incorrectly. As we have found out recently that one of the main candidates have said that if he gets elected within the first 100 days same sex marriage will be passed. Now if any Christian worth his/her salt voted for this politician then you are not really a Christ-like person because if you read God’s word you would know He made marriage as a sacred covenant for a man and woman only. We must say no way to any change for our sacred marriage covenant that God put in place to make the family unit safe and protected since before all time. Even if you are not following God but believe in Him and you want right morals to be in place in Australia surely you would not vote for this politician. Some people say oh but they love one another why not let them it is not hurting any one. Oh - make no mistake it will damage the foundation of the family unit and there will be consequences for it. God Almighty Himself put in place marriage to protect the family unit and we must not allow this to be compromised in any way if we truly stand for what is right. The last time I looked Australia was and is built on Judah/Christian beliefs and people’s opinions, tradition, cultures and whatever feels good are trying to change the foundations of what Australia is and always has been. We must stand for Truth, Righteousness and Justice.

How long do we continue to ‘turn a blind eye’ – leaving it for others to do or say what is right. We must do it! Australians are known to hate injustice and when truth is revealed they rally to the cause in an effort to put right the wrong - no matter what the cost or personal risk to themselves. Our fathers and grandfathers fought for this and we will not let other opinions and traditions shift the goal posts. We can not say ‘she will be right mate’ or leave it to someone else. We must say something and make a stand for a moral standard in Australia. It is up to us.
The Kingdom of God is much more powerful than any governmental power on the earth. When the Kingdom of God starts to manifest on the earth that’s when we will see change and revival in our heart’s first. We need to change and make the change. We as Christian people need revival in our hearts so that we will make a stand against all unrighteousness and then others will follow and to know our Kingdom authority will bring change. God is passing the baton to those who revere and value greatly His order and authority. When the church is in FIVE FOLD order, to a greater level of one mind, one heart, one accord and have His love for each other……. then the change will come. To a greater capacity. We will change communities, government, cities and nations - the church needs to lead the way.

First the church in Godly order then the world. 1Peter 4:17 God is looking for men and women to speak and change the status quo (existing state of affairs or that which existed previously).
God said that He is the same yesterday, today and forever and if one person stands for His Truth and Righteousness, He will have mercy on us and save us from calamities of the future.
We need to take a look at our words and the statements/opinions we are making/saying and why we are making/saying them. Then ask God to sort them and the ones that line up with His - do something about it. What are we going to do about it?   Revelation 3:13-22 We as God’s people need to do what it takes. Send that letter to parliament and to our federal and state members and our local candidates to let them know that no that is not alright to have bills passed that are not in line with God’s plan.
Visit and make an appointment with them. Ask them what you can do? Become involved. Pray that righteous true believers of God will lead and have influence in government and they would speak into the lives of other leaders Godly wisdom and understanding and that they would have influence. Vote for God’s leaders in that sphere of influence - ones that will not compromise and will stand for God’s Truth and statutes. People that hate make bad choices.
Be the spokesperson for your church and community.
Remember, if good men and women do nothing, evil will prosper.
Make your words count and then BE the solution.
