0UR VISION Romans 15:20(TPT) It is my honor and constant passion to be a pioneer who preaches where no one has ever even heard of the Anointed One, instead of building upon someone else’s foundation.
OUR MISSION 1 Corinthians 1:17 (MSG) God didn’t send me out to collect a following for myself, but to preach the Message of what He has done, collecting a following for Him. And He didn’t send me to do it with a lot of fancy rhetoric of my own, lest the powerful action at the center— Christ on the Cross—be trivialized into mere words.

EDITOR'S NOTE For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God. Romans 8:19
EDITOR
tsakani mhlongo tsakanii tsakanii
This Editor's note is from Tsakani , a slave of Jesus Christ. I greet you in the MIGHTY NAME OF THE LORD JESUS CHRIST. Beloved, this particular verse has been a blessing to me lately, because the Holy Spirit is revealing that there is a Holy Shaking in the entire world , whether it be war , collapsing of the economy, famine or prosperity , it's a Holy Shaking (re-alignment for the Body of Christ). Which makes me realize that creation is waiting for the manifestation of the sons of GOD and really this is the time. By the grace of GOD , I was with my brothers and sisters the second last week of March on a 3 day street to street crusade in Soweto, South Africa . We were sent by the Living GOD on this assignment . Really brethren, the harvest is plenty but the labourers are few. Maybe you are reading this and the Lord has sent you and you're still making excuses , please stop with the excuses and GO, the Lord Jesus will take care of the rest. Humanity is lost and need to hear the truth. Don't be responsible for people dying without hearing the truth . Ezekiel 3:18 Something BIG is happening in AFRICA . The Almighty JESUS has remembered His covenant with Africa. Soldiers of the CROSS are rising , mighty men and women are rising , intercessors are rising , true worshippers are rising , servants are rising , prayer warriors are rising and true GOD FEARING disciples. Those that are willing to die for the sake of The Lord Jesus are rising . Will you be a spectator or participator?
AFRICA SHALL BE SAVED None the less, may the grace of the Lord JESUS CHRIST and the ever sweet fellowship of the HOLY SPIRIT be with you. Be a blessing and stay blessed !
ARE YOU SAVED? Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. John 3v 3. I haven't come across anybody that said: "I don't want to go to Heaven". Well, just like every destination there is a designated way. To enter the Kingdom of GOD , meaning you & I , The Royal Family, Presidents , Trillionaires, MUST BE BORN AGAIN. Not educated, wealthy or connected, BUT BE BORN AGAIN! Firstly, being born again is not lip service but the spiritual state(heart) which starts by an individual having a repentant heart towards the LORD JESUS and confessing Romans 10 v 9-10 KJV. Inviting the presence of the Holy Spirit , Whom shall then help you to live a righteous and holy life. If you've done so or would love more information.

He Satisfies My Soul by: Dr André and Jenny Roebert John 10:9 (TPT): "I am the Gateway. To enter through Me is to experience life, freedom, and satisfaction." In times of uncertainty and unrest, no matter the cause - we must remember our source of life, freedom and satisfaction is Christ alone. Jesus declared that He is our gateway to fullness of life where there is freedom from fear, lack, sickness and every bondage. He also said that in Him we will experience satisfaction. Have you ever hungered after God and experiencing the fullness of His Presence? Anyone who has ever experienced the tangible, manifest Presence of God knows what it is to feel so complete and fully satisfied, to the point where your cup runs over with the pleasure and joy of experiencing Him. Psalm 100:4 tells us to enter God's Presence with thanksgiving and praise! Choosing to exalt Jesus, our faithful Saviour, in thankful praise, attracts His manifest Presence, like a magnet to steel. The Bible says He inhabits and is enthroned in our sincere praise of Him. It creates an atmosphere that is exclusively for His Presence! A place where no opposing force can co-exist with His Presence. If our gaze is fixed on Jesus, we can enter in and enjoy being energised, healed, restored, and empowered by His Presence. If you long to be refreshed and empowered by Him today, then come to Him, step through the gateway and be satisfied.

CHAPTER 8 CHAMBERS OF DIVORCED AND REMARRIED PEOPLE
"I WANT PEOPLE THAT ARE ENJOYING LIFE TO KNOW THAT HELL IS REAL AND IT EXISTS AND THAT AFTER DEATH THERE IS
Brother, when the Lord came, He took me to a mountain, and we were supposed to go to Hell. We stood on top of the mountain. I asked the Lord, “How come a loving God create a place of torment like Hell?” Jesus said, “I am the God of love. I’m the God of holiness and justice. Likewise, I am manifesting My love for the people on the Earth when they are alive. As soon as they died, they must face My holiness and My justice.” We were on top of the mountain. The Lord held my hand and we began to rise. When we rose up higher, the Lord said to me, “Aston, now you can look down.” When I looked down, I saw 12 funnels that were turning around at great speed.
ANOTHER LIFE AWAITING HUMANITY, WHICH IS EITHER THE ABODE OF THE DEAD, WHICH IS PERDITION OR THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN.”
I was observing these funnels in the four corners of the planet Earth. In the end, I saw that these 12 funnels joining together to form one huge funnel. Out of this funnel was resonating with a powerful voice. I heard this loud booming voice saying repeatedly, “Delivery, delivery.” As this thunderous voice kept repeating, “Delivery,” I saw two enormous hands of a principality above the Earth. As soon as this loud blaring voice began to request delivery, this principality started gathering countless deceased souls that have died on the Earth. Brother, I saw countless human souls like the sand of the Earth falling into this huge funnel. This principality was pouring them like sand in the funnel. I said to the Lord Jesus, “Master, are You seeing this funnel that is turning around, and this huge hand that is precipitating countless of people in the funnel?” The Lord said, “Aston, what you are witnessing is the entry of Hell through which we will enter in order to visit Hell.” I said, “Lord, what about these huge hands that are dropping countless of souls in the funnel?” The Lord said, “The people that are falling in the funnel are the dead. These huge hands that you see belong to the Principality of death. This Angel of Death is gathering deceased souls from the four corners of the Earth and he is pouring them in the mouth of the Earth, which is this turning funnel. Since the kingdom of Hell is demanding delivery of more souls, the Angel of Death is delivering souls of men who have died on the Earth to the mouth of Hell.” “The abode of the dead is in constant demand of more souls of men for the devil wants the kingdom of Hell to win more souls. There are more people going to Hell than to Heaven. The Bible says in Isaiah 5:14, Therefore Hell expands its jaws, opening wide its mouth; into it will descend their nobles and masses with all their brawlers and revellers.” Jesus said, “The 12 funnels that you see are the mouth of the Earth.” The Lord said, “Aston, now we must enter the mouth of Hell in order to visit.” I said, “Lord, we don’t have to. I will tell the world that Hell is real. It is not important for me to go there.” I was saying this for I was horrified. Quickly we began to descend into the mouth of Hell. I was crying to the Lord, for I did not want to go there. There were an unbearable smell and total darkness in the mouth of Hell. I saw unclean spirits that were in chains and in bondage on the walls. They look like monkeys, bears, lions. Some of them were hybrid humans, humanoids, beasts, and reptiles that do not exist on the Earth. I said, “Lord, who are these beasts in chains?” The Lord said, “These are wicked spirits in the service of Satan. They wait for the order of the devil. They are demons that destroy families of the Earth. As soon as the devil gives them a mission, the mouth of Hell will vomit them on the Earth.”
HEAVEN & HELL TESTIMONY
And while we were descending into Hell, these wicked spirits were roaring, whistling and making noises. It was horrifying. They were mocking us and they were trying to capture us, but they could not bear the light of Jesus Christ. Brother, I said on the second day of this experience, I visited the chambers of sexual sins. On the third day, the Lord came and we landed in the first chambers of Hell, which was that of sexual sins. We spent many days in that chamber. We were in the corridor where the gates of chambers of Hell were aligned. But when we look around, we saw a gate that seems endless, where it was written, “Prison of Married People.” Upon the gate, they had the quotation of the word of the Lord from Matthew 19:4-6, “Haven’t you read? He replied, that at the beginning, the Creator made them male and female, and said, For this reason, a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh so they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore, what God has joined together, let no one separate.” Upon this gate of Hell, there was another passage of the Bible, Malachi 2:14- 16, “You ask why? It is because the Lord is the witness between you and the wife of your youth. You have been unfaithful to her, though she is your partner, the wife of your marriage covenant. Has not God made you one? You belong to Him in body and spirit. And what does the One God seek? Godly offspring. So be on your guard and do not be unfaithful to the wife of your youth. The man who hates and divorces his wife, says the Lord the God of Israel, does violence to the one he should protect, says the Lord Almighty.” I said to the Lord, “Married people are here too?” The Lord said, “These are people who did not keep principles and they did not respect the process of marriage. They are here.” When we entered this place, I saw a demon sitting on a chair. He was playing worldly music and swinging. While this demon was singing immoral songs of worldly music, I saw another door on the side which was opened. When I looked I saw it was written, “The Place of the Divorced and Remarried Couples.” As soon as we entered the gate of this chamber, I heard like a noise of altercation, I heard two men that were quarrelling for a lady. I heard the first one saying, “She’s my wife, not yours. Leave her alone.” It was like people were fighting. When I looked, I saw two people fighting for a woman who was saying, “Leave me alone.” I noticed that these people were rotting and their lower parts were inside a sea of lava. These two souls were grabbing the lady and there was an altercation.
HEAVEN & HELL TESTIMONY
I asked the Lord Jesus, “Why are these people fighting for this woman?” The Lord said, “Let’s get closer.” When we got closer the Lord said, “Peace, be still.” As a result, these men left alone the lady who was exhausted for everyone was pulling her. I saw that she was lying in the burning lava. It was horrifying to see a human being burning like a fish in the fire. One of these men said to the Lord, “Master, I have not done anything wrong. But this woman is not a good wife. I married her legally. Not long after our wedding, I was sent to war in the east of the country, and I was hit on the leg, but I did not die. However, the authorities abandoned us in the front line and they went on to inform our family that we were dead. As a result, my wife went to marry this man that is fighting me here. Since I was hit in that war, I could not fight in the front line. I crossed the border to Rwanda, and I began to find a way to survive. I ended up in Uganda. Then I went to Gabon. Finally, I travelled to Europe in Spain. I had no contact with my wife. 10 years later, I travelled back to Congo to find my wife that I had married legally. When I arrived in order to find my wife, I learned that she got married and she had children. In spite of this, I had sexual contact with her though she had another man. When I died, I fell here.” When this man finished this conversation, then his opponent began to explain to the Lord in these terms, “I have done nothing wrong. So when I met this woman, I found her with children and she told me that her husband was dead in the war. I told her that I loved her despite the fact that she had children and I will marry her. At the end of the day, we got married legally. I have not done anything wrong. Why am I here?” Jesus said to him, “When you are married to a divorced person, you have committed adultery.” When we left these people, I saw a lady who was married to a man who came from Europe. This lady did not know that this man had divorced his wife in Europe. When they met they quickly got married and they built a new life. However, when she died, she was condemned for marrying a man that was divorced. I was pained to realize that it was the man who had done wrong since he had divorced his wife in Europe, but the innocent woman had to pay for she had committed her life to a man who was divorced. The woman found herself in torment for marrying a man who was already divorced. This was a case of remarriage. Brother, there were countless in this chamber of Hell that had married people that were divorced and because of remarriage, they were condemned. I saw a pastor in this place of torment. He was trampled by souls that he blessed in wedding ceremonies. He failed to tell them that remarriage was wrong.
This pastor told the people that remarrying is not a problem. Then he went to bless the marriages of people who had divorced and these very people were trampling on him and accusing him of validating divorce and remarriage. Yet the Bible says when you divorce, you must stay single until the death of your partner. 1 Corinthians 7:10-14 And to the married I command, yet not I, but the Lord, Let not the wife depart from her husband: 11 But and if she departs, let her remain unmarried or be reconciled to her husband: and let not the husband put away his wife. 12 But to the rest speak I, not the Lord: If any brother has a wife that believes not, and she is pleased to dwell with him, let him not put her away. 13 And the woman which has a husband that believes not, and if he is pleased to dwell with her, let her not leave him. 14 For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the wife and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the husband: else were your children unclean, but now are they holy. Many people ignored the consequences of the divorce. When you are married, only death can separate you from your partner, for no one can separate what God has joined together. Only fornication would be an acceptable justification for divorce. Brother and sister, even if your spouse insults or mistreats you, you’re going to have to seek grace to settle it for divorce is permitted only in case of fornication. In this chamber, there were men of God who knew that members of their churches had divorced, yet they went on to bless them. They were guilty and they were condemned in this place of torment. In fact, these men of God are the ones who are suffering the most extreme torment of this chamber of Hell, for they have encouraged and accepted the marriages of people that were divorced. These kinds of pastor were numerous in this place. They have blessed people who are remarrying. They blessed marriages of divorced people. Any pastor who preached remarriage and blessed divorced people in marriage were punished severely in this place. In this chamber of Hell, there were countless souls that had divorced and remarried. I saw black and white and people of all nations, all colours and all languages. In this chamber, I saw a pastor that was suspended and bound and chained on a balcony of fire. And there was a Bible opened before him, which he was supposed to read. Actually, this pastor had -
divorced his wife, claiming that she was not the woman that was supposed to help his ministry and that it was necessary for him to marry a woman that will be a plus and complementary to his ministry. While he was reading these scriptures about the marriage and divorce, he was insulted and mocked by the damned souls that were tormented in this fire. In fact, these lost souls in Hell were in such a pain that they were insulting one another in an extreme way. They said to the pastor, “You’re going to shut up, stupid. You were a pastor, why have you come here? And how dare you talk to us about these marital issues. You cannot talk to us about the Gospel here.” As these souls were insulting him, he also began to insult them. Brother, whenever a man of God blesses a person who is remarrying, he is putting himself against the law.
HEAVEN & HELL TESTIMONY He must repent. Whenever a family validates and takes part in a remarriage of their son or daughter, they are placing themselves under condemnation. They must confess and repent. Whenever church members attend a remarriage of a brother or a sister, they are placing themselves under the condemnation. Brother, you must not attend the marriages of divorced persons. You are partaking of their sin. You are agreeing and validating their sin. I want to warn parents, you should never accept that your daughter or son divorce unless it is about fornication. And whenever your divorced daughter brings you another man for marriage, do not accept that marriage for it is fornication. You must not accept the dowry either for fear of condemnation, for the Lord does not validate it. TO BE CONTINUED....

REMINDER
DON'T ALLOW DOUBTS PROLONG YOUR EXPECTATIONS SHEPHERD HILL COMMUNITY
I greet you in the name of Jesus Christ. When you don't pray the nation where you are living, you automatically allow the Evil nature of that country to remain.. That's how you have been contributing to the same thing you frown at.
And Peter calling to remembrance saith unto him, Master, behold, the fig tree which thou cursedst is withered away.
"And Jesus answered and said unto it, No man eat fruit of thee hereafter for ever. And his disciples heard it.
For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith." Mark.11:14, 20, 21, 23.
And in the morning, as they passed by, they saw the fig tree dried up from the roots.
Dear friend, some people expected to see that fig tree wither or dry up the very moment JESUS cursed it.
REMINDER The truth is, that tree actually withered but it wasn't visible to the natural eyes. Just because you have not seen an instant manifestation of something you desire and praying for doesn't mean that thing hasn't happened. The natural man has trained himself to only believe what he can see, feel or touch but that's the root cause of our doubts. As Spirit beings that GOD made, you were not given your senses to help you make decisions concerning spiritual matters. Those who allow the senses to make all judgements for them will become victims of all manner of
My friend, some truths are not immediately visible but that does not change its status. If GOD says you are healed, blessed, etc He wants you to say the same thing and believe what you are saying so that whatever stands in the way to the physical manifestation of that truth can give way. If you believe what GOD has said but you don't believe what you are saying, the mountain of opposition may linger because the mountain wants to hear you since you're the one facing it. Like JESUS was facing the fig tree, He spoke to it and not to GOD.
doubts; and James 1:7 says: "For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord." You cannot doubt what GOD said and expect to receive from the same GOD.
It's time to start speaking to your mountain or like the fig tree, anything that is not meeting your expectations in career, family life, Spirit, financial, health, etc. Just anything can hear you.
Dear friend, doubts may arise but you can doubt your doubts if you know and believe what GOD said concerning a matter.
That tree had to wither because the One cursing it knew that He dominates and rules the invisible spirit world where words, though invisible, are very strong currency of transaction. JESUS said: ".....you shall have whatsoever you say." It's a spiritual law we cannot wish away.
The very first mention of the word: 'doubt' in the bible is in Genesis.37:33 and Jacob was the man in that scripture. Jacob heard and knew what GOD has in plan for the life of his son Joseph. But when he saw the clothes of Joseph soaked in blood, he believed the report of his envious brothers and took that as the truth, not knowing it was a False Evidence Appearing Rea l(FEAR). Do you not know that doubts will always create fear and fear weakens faith? From the Words of JESUS in Mark.11:23, we see that the fig tree didn't wither just because it was the Lord JESUS who cursed it. According to JESUS, that tree withered because there was no doubt in the heart of Jesus ; and that's why He said: "whosoever saith....." which includes you. You can speak to whatever confronts you like a mountain that refuses to give way, and Know that your words are weightier than the mountain you see.
As a child of GOD, you dominate and rule in the spirit world just like JESUS. The bible says: "as He is, so are we in this world"(1John.4:17). You dominate because you are operating in the name and power of JESUS. Knowing this and not allowing anything you see or feel make you doubt the outcome of your words, will make mountains bow to your command. Curse that evil thing you hate to see in your life and call forth those good things you want to see. In about 24hrs after JESUS cursed the fig tree, it was dried up. This is the same testimony you will have over that matter in Jesus name Peter was surprised to see the tree dry up that fast and that means, you can have your expectation sooner than imagined.

MANY WILL TRY TO ENTER BUT THEY WILL NOT One of the Epistles written by my mentor, Apostle Paul is 2 Corinthians 13:5 ' Examine yourselves to see whether you are in the faith; test yourselves. Do you not realize that Christ Jesus is in you—unless, of course, you fail the test?' Being a bona fide member of any denomination doesn't mean you are in the Faith (in Christ). I strongly believe that it was the Holy Spirit who inspired the Apostle to ask Christians in Corinth to test if they are in the right faith. The statement doesn't say test your church or test the doctrine of your church but it clearly says: 'test yourself' because both your church and your church doctrine will all be left behind when your day comes for you to stand before the WHITE JUDGEMENT SEAT. That is why we will continue to teach and preach that Jesus is Lord.

The hunger for God's presence gave birth to a wave of real Evangelists, who uttered powerful words that turned sinners into saints. They preached the undiluted Gospel of the cross and through their voices they declared these words: 'raise up your hands, accept Jesus tonight and you shall go to Heaven'. Yes many people did that but Jesus said in the his word: 'many will try to enter the narrow gate but they will not. 'I thought when I accepted Jesus in my heart, my seat was 100% guaranteed in Heaven but it seems like this is not an obvious case according to Jesus Christ. Yes, Jesus continues and says:' Many will stand at the door, knocking but the Master will say:' I don't know you'. This Parable of the owner of the house is referring to a particular group of Christians : those who have heard and received the Gospel but failed to live it.
How do I know if am in the right faith? It is not about the right church or the right preacher but the right Faith. What does Apostle Paul refer to when he says: 'unless, of course, you fail the test? Does it mean the church can be full of those who have failed the test of faith? Does this mean some Christians will end up in Hell just because they were not aware that they were in the wrong faith? Someone asked Jesus:' Lord, are only a few people going to be saved?” Do you know what Jesus said to answer this question? Read: Luke 13:23-24 Jesus said:' make every efforts to enter through...' Lord, I pray that you will help us through the power of the Holy Spirit not just to know your word but to live it. I pray that even on the last day, we will be able to enter through the narrow gate. I don't want to be part of the crowd that will be standing and protesting at the gate. I want to see Jesus on the other side. Evangelists

A HUMBLE PEOPLE written by:
ANGUS & JILL BUCHAN Jill and I found Jesus as our personal Lord and Saviour on the 18th of February 1979, just two years after settling in Greytown, Kwa-Zulu Natal Midlands, South Africa. Originally from Zambia, we bought a piece of land on which we planned to farm crops and livestock. We had very little to start with but even as brand new Christians, we were content with our farm, which we later called SHALOM.
If we go to the book of 2 Chronicles 32.26 (NKV) the Bible tells us,

Martin Lloyd Jones, that great Welsh preacher who was a heart specialist turned preacher, said, “humility is one of the chief of all the Christian virtues, it is the hallmark of the child of God.“ I heard a story about William Duma, the Zulu preacher from the Valley of a Thousand Hills in Zululand. He arrived at a little Baptist Church in Zambia, many years ago. At nine o’clock, the people of the church were all waiting for the man of God to arrive. Everybody was excited, William Duma had a tremendous healing ministry as well, but he hadn’t arrived.

A SEASON OF S E P A R A T I O N WRITTEN BY : DR PEARL KUPE SOURCE: JOY! MAGAZINE
As believers, it is important for us to know the times and seasons that we are in, so that – like the sons of Issachar in 1 Chronicles 12:32 – we know what we must do and are able to respond with the right strategy and actions. For the past few years, it has been clear that the events taking place around the world are bringing a separation within the Body of Christ, separating the ‘sheep’ from the ‘goats’. There is a separation taking place between those who are on fire for the Kingdom of God, and those who are merely lukewarm.
The time and season for sitting on the fence is over. We are called to fulfil Matthew 6:33, and to seek the Kingdom of God and His righteousness first. The days of compromise and being ‘wishy washy’ are over. We must take a Kingdom stand, one that is rooted and established firmly in righteousness and justice (in line with Psalm 97:2).
Separating sheep from goats
MENTAL HEALTH In Matthew 25:35-45, we see Yeshua separating nations on the basis of their DNA. Sheep nations follow after the ultimate Shepherd Himself. Citizens and intercessors around the world must pray for their nations and leaders to line up as sheep. In this season, it is becoming more evident that certain individuals, networks, and nations who claimed to be following the ultimate Shepherd and doing His will, are those who were simply goats camouflaged as sheep. The DNA of a goat is anchored in rebellion. Goat nations, networks, and individuals that have been masquerading as sheep will continue to be exposed in this season. Their masks will continue to come off. Luke 12:2-3 will be a key passage in 2022 and beyond, “Everything hidden and covered up will soon be exposed. For the facade is falling down, and nothing will be kept secret for long. Whatever you have spoken in private will be public knowledge, and what you have whispered secretly behind closed doors will be broadcast far and wide for all to hear.”
Separating the hot from the lukewarm Revelation 3:16 says, “So, because you are lukewarm and neither cold nor hot, I will spew you out of My mouth!” Those in the medical industry tell us that lukewarm water is often used to induce vomiting, expelling any poison or toxin that may be in the body. Lukewarm believers are dangerous to the Body of Christ and represent believers who are casual, complacent, and compromised. There is a separation taking place between lukewarm believers and those who are on fire for God, relentlessly pursuing the Kingdom of God in line with Matthew 6:33.
Separating the sons from the prodigals True sons are those who take responsibility for managing their Father’s estate, with the understanding of Psalm 24:1 – that the earth is the Lord’s and the fullness of it and its inhabitants. Unlike prodigal sons, whose only desire is to seek after and demand material possessions and money and to take care of and promote themselves, true sons of God are accountable and responsible. Separating the remnant 300 Gideon army from the rest! We are in a season of war, warring against the kingdom of darkness like never before. Only soldiers who walk in boldness and understand that God has not given us a spirit of fear, but a spirit of power, love, and sound mind will be conscripted for war. In Judges 7:3, we discover that 22 000 of the original 32 000 in Gideon’s army returned due to fear. In this season, there are many in the Body of Christ who will not engage in the battle due to fear, due to not having a firm position in what they believe, and due to failing to voice that kingdom position and perspective openly. God is not limited, nonetheless! He knows how to use the 300 valiant, fearless, and non-compromising soldiers who have signed up and are ready to do battle and contend for the faith! To the 300, know that God has gone ahead of you and victory is certain and sure! #KeNako

REVELATION BY: FEMI OLUYAMOJU
IS THE LORD JESUS IN IT ?
I saw Angels made of instruments, I saw an Angel like a keyboard, but instead of 7 white notes and 5 black notes I saw endless keys. The Angel played notes I never knew existed. I saw an Angel like a giant saxophone, but with 7 heads of saxophone, playing seven tunes at the same time I saw an Angel like a guitar, but with about one million strings, he sounded like the waves of the sea, like a million waters. I saw Angels created like drums, when they shake, they sound like symphony orchestra of thunders.... When they all combine their sounds, the heavens vibrated in melodious heavenly music that makes me shed the tears of joy. For the first time I understood the meaning of that verse: " IN THE PRESENCE OF GOD, THERE IS FULLNESS OF JOY ".

The Root Of
PERSECUTION “And I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your seed and her seed; He shall bruise you on the head, and you shall bruise him on the heel.” — Genesis 3:15
T
his passage is often referred to as the protevangelium or “first gospel” of the Scriptures. Here the great truths of Christ’s work of redemption are revealed in kernel form— Satan would be defeated and God’s people delivered and restored through the bruised heel (i.e. the death and resurrection) of the promised Messiah. “The gospels and epistles are but the expansion, fulfilment, [and] culmination of the protevangelium.”1 As beautiful as this promise is, it is important to recognize that it is accompanied by the announcement of a war that would rage throughout the history of the church until the Second Coming of Christ and the consummation of all things. My use of the term “war” is not hyperbole or poetic embellishment; rather, it is an understatement! Over the millennia of world history, this war has resulted in the suffering and martyrdom of saints without number. According to our text, four parties are involved in this war. On one side are the serpent and his seed. On the other side stand the woman and her seed.
The serpent in Eden was a physical creature that was created by God, but behind its malice was a greater and more malignant spiritual force that elsewhere is identified as the devil (Revelation 12:9). Satan is the real culprit God addresses here. But who is his seed? The New Testament identifies this seed as the whole of fallen humanity. A greater and more offensive condemnation of man could hardly be suggested, but it is nevertheless true. Having rejected the person and will of God, fallen man shares a similar malignant nature with Satan and has placed himself in league with him. Jesus Himself told the unbelieving Jews who opposed Him, “You are of your father the devil” (John 8:44); and the Apostle John used similarly strong verbiage in his first epistle (3:8- 10) Opposite the devil and his followers are Eve—“the mother of all the living” (Genesis 3:20)— and her seed. In a general sense, the word “seed” here refers to all those throughout redemptive history who acknowledge the person and rule of God, are justified by faith, and live in submission to His word. However, ultimately, the word points specifically to the person of Jesus Christ, who defeats Satan at the cross and strikes him with a mortal wound.
'' They have no desire to enter the kingdom of heaven, and they oppose all those who do''.
“This hostility begins with the beast and the woman as individuals. Yet their experience is shared by their offspring too; the serpent and woman are distinct from their offspring yet also one and the same with them. Here we have the common case where an individual represents many. Eve and her adversary are the progenitors of a lifelong struggle that will persist until a climactic moment when the woman’s offspring (i.e. Christ) will achieve the upper hand.” When we stand at a distance and survey Genesis 3:15 within the context of the entirety of the Scriptures, we see that the enmity between the offspring of the serpent and that of the woman has two primary fulfillments or applications. First, the prophecy points to the epic struggle between Satan and the Messiah on the cross of Calvary. There the Messiah received a “bruise,” for He did indeed die; but it was in the end no lethal blow, for He rose again and ascended to the right hand of God! The death of Christ satisfied the demands of God’s justice against His people “so that God might be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus” (Romans 3:26).
Now all accusations against God and 2 Kenneth A. Matthews, Genesis 1:1-11:26, THAT GOD’S NAME BE GREAT AMONG THE NATIONS. His sinful people are silenced! The powerful accuser has been thrown down and rendered powerless (Hebrews 2:14)! Second, the prophecy points to two distinct groups within humanity—the redeemed and regenerated children of God who live according to His word; and the spiritually dead children of the devil who walk according to the ways of their father and prince. These two factions have been at enmity with one another since the fall and will continue to be at enmity until the return of Christ. The children of God “follow the Lamb wherever He goes” (Revelation 14:4). But the children of the devil are sons of disobedience, who love the darkness (Ephesians 2:1-3; John 3:20). They have no desire to enter the kingdom of heaven, and they oppose all those who do (Matthew 23:13). TO BE CONTINUED

FROM THE HOLINESS REVIVAL MOVEMENT WORLDWIDE DESK
VICTORY OVER THE FLESH TEXT: ESTHER 2:16-19 (16) So Esther was taken unto king Ahasuerus into his house royal in the tenth month, which is the month Tebeth, in the seventh year of his reign. (17) And the king loved Esther above all the women, and she obtained grace and favour in his sight more than all the virgins; so that he set the royal crown upon her head, and made her queen instead of Vashti. (18) Then the king made a great feast unto all his princes and his servants, even Esther's feast; and he made a release to the provinces, and gave gifts, according to the state of the king. (19) And when the virgins were gathered together the second time, then Mordecai sat in the king's gate. KEY VERSE: 1 JOHN 5:4 For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith.
Pastor Paul Rika International Director of Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide "HOREMOW is like a large body of water coming with great force washing away all debris, shedding dead weight, and riding off all impurities from among the churches today. The great force carries along the genuine children of God from all over the world and from all denominations and nationalities onto the narrow way to be rapture ready and to meet our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. This is the last move of God on earth, and, Holiness Revival Movement is the Last Ark of our generation. Some say, "Is this the only place people can worship?" Indeed, such a drastic measure would perplex the world. But, Jesus said, "My children know my voice..."
" Real beauty is not about the face but the heart, possessing the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which is of great price in the sight of God. ''. Queen Esther was a victorious, godly woman in the midst of her peers, who were generally unbelievers and pagans from heathen nations. Circumstances brought her into a contest with all these ladies and she won a resounding international victory to be crowned queen of the empire. May the Lord always remember you and make you victorious in all righteous endeavours. May you emerge victorious when you are examined alongside other people as was the case with Esther, and also with Daniel, Shedrach, Meshach and Abednego. Esther was victorious over the flesh in many areas: she conquered her own flesh; she overcame the fear of King Ahasuerus, the monarch of the kingdom. She contended with the fear of death and overcame it. Circumstances brought her in a life and death struggle against Haman, the arch enemy of the Jews and she overcame him in her wisdom. She conquered because she was a godly woman and her God was with her. The Lord shall raise many Esther's in our time because there are great battles to fight and win for Jesus. What is worldliness? It means living and behaving like the people of the world. That is, living, speaking, thinking, acting, planning and dressing like the world. Seeking for beauty and running after the fashion of this world that fades away. Admiring and aspiring for the false beauty from cosmetics, jewellery and all forms of artificial beauty. Esther conquered these things. She was victorious over the temptation of carnal and fleshly beauty, even at the peak of a keenly contested beauty pageant.
Without righteousness, beauty is vanity. Give priority to righteousness, else beauty without righteousness will not profit you. Real beauty is not about the face but the heart, possessing the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which is of great price in the sight of God. THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Without righteousness, beauty is vanity.

Prepare for FAMINE
WRITTEN BY: ELIZABETH MARIE
THE COMING FOOD SHORTAGE Once again, the LORD has been speaking to me about the FAMINE that is coming. I received 2 more dreams, and a message concerning this.
1ST DREAM: In this dream vision, I saw a large, oblong, cardboard box that was filled to the brim with supplies …..including basic food items.
INTERPRETATION: When I awoke, I heard that this is a ‘care package’ for those who will be hungry, homeless, and needy.
These will be distributed by those who have been blessed with abundance. We are to help the poor and misfortune, as the LORD taught us to do! Isaiah 58:6-8 2nd DREAM: I was at a re-enactment festival…..just like a civil-war re-enactment…… however, the people there were all pretending to be poor and destitute. They were dressed in tattered, poor clothing. They were re-enacting what it would be like if they were dirt-poor, and living off the land.
They were re-enacting what it would be like if they were dirt-poor, and living off the land. I saw some people handmaking soap, and basic supplies from scratch. They were living in tents and cooking their meals on an open fire. INTERPRETATION: The people in my dream were ‘practicing’ for when times get tough, and there is no more money or food. They were like “preppers” that were learning different skills by living in poor conditions. It was a ‘dry-run’ for when apocalyptic disaster(s) come. I believe that this was a WARNING dream for people to start thinking ‘outside the box,’ in terms of their very survival and what that might look like. It is time to learn everything you can about growing gardens, and learning how to live off the land, including things like foraging. The LORD has shown me that we are to do ‘our part’ in preparing as best as we can, with the resources HE has given us. HE will then do the rest! If you haven’t started preparing for your family…..then DON’T WAIT any longer! Don’t be ‘lazy’ or ‘asleep at the wheel!’ Prepare for the FAMINE ECONOMIC COLLAPSE.
and
PROPHETIC WARNING: FOOD SHORTAGES / FAMINE THE COMING FOOD SHORTAGE MESSAGE: (received on 8/19/21 while praying) “Famine is on the horizon. Prepare as best as you can…..DON’T WAIT! This is a forced famine.
I have called upon MY own for years to prepare. Some have heeded the warning, and have (prepared), but most have not. I will be your source, only if you look to ME for your needs.” (then I heard Matthew 6 ) “The time is late. These days are upon you now. I will deliver MY own, and will INCREASE their supplies. Have NO FEAR, but TRUST IN ME! I will be the GREAT PROVIDER! Call out to ME and and I will answer the calls and cries of MY children! YESHSUA “
CORRESPONDING SCRIPTURE “For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.” Matthew 24:7
This will like the potato famine…. Many will starve…. Many will die.

BE HOLY AND PERFECT
IN THE FACE OF CHALLENGES
But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. - 1 CORINTHIANS 15:57 any people are not able to stand M when they are challenged in life by difficulties and problems. Some that are unmarried feel agitated and overwhelmed because they feel that they are passing the flowering stage of life. This is a challenge and it makes them unstable in Christ. Some married women do not have good husbands. Some husbands are wicked and do not have good character. There is a great challenge of unhealthy relationship with their husbands, which makes some women become wicked and evil themselves in a bid to checkmate their husbands.
For some, it is the challenge of poverty that makes them unable to stand as they indulge in many sinful practices to make ends meet. For some, it is the challenge of persistent sicknesses and diseases which drain family resources. It could be physical deformity that makes some feel inferior and ashamed. To some it is the problem of barrenness or delayed child bearing that tend to make them feel and behave as second class women or as if they do not have the right to live. They conclude within themselves that since they are unable to marry or bear children, what then am I created for. Some become withdrawn and resort to hiding themselves away from society.
That is a wrong action. Desist from hiding yourself and come out of your hiding place because your God is going to give you the position He has occasioned to give you. Your God will lay His hand upon your life and exalt you above other people. Your God will make you shine and the glory of the Lord shall rest upon your life. Do not blame God that you are not married at 60 years of age. That does not mean anything. If God wants you to marry and bear children, He will bring it to pass. Just keep on with your Christian life of holiness and prayer and serve God in righteousness. We serve the great and mighty God. Take your burden to the Lord and leave it there. Trust Him and never doubt.

Excelling in spiritual warfare We can walk with God and come into unity with Him by clothing ourselves in His nature. This will require that we restrict and control the desires of the flesh by putting our focus on obtaining the very substance and characteristics of HaShem. In order to clothe ourselves with His likeness, we will have to excel in spiritual warfare – because we will encounter resistance. Every day we face challenges from the world, our flesh, and the devil. We must have kavanah (which is the Hebrew word for intention) that every day we are going to live with purpose by adorning ourselves with humility, gentleness, love, and sensitivity to the Spirit. The more that we become like Jesus, the more we are going to know God. “The one who says he abides in Him ought himself to walk in the same manner as He walked.” 1 John 2:6 To the extent that we harness the flesh, holding back our anger, frustration, words of reproach, and accusation – the more we will be able to abide in God. We have to hold our natural impulses back. It takes strength. It takes resolve. It takes kavanah. Until we restrict the earthly inclinations of our carnal nature and instead willfully choose to walk in love, peace, and unity; we will not be able to experience HaShem at the level He desires for us.
Let me ask you, how many times have you found yourself gossiping about people or speaking words of negativity? Beloved one, this will break your fellowship with God. If you will instead engage in warfare, by constraining your flesh and choosing the higher ways of the Father, you are going to ascend in the power of the Spirit and enter into a relationship with God that is beyond anything that you have ever known before! The more we limit our worldly tendencies and clothe ourselves with the Spirit, the more we will become like Messiah Jesus. This will necessitate a daily commitment, discipline, and dying to self, but the ultimate goal of being transformed into His likeness is our goal and worth it. “But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as from the Lord, the Spirit.” 2 Corinthians 3:18

DO WE REALLY LOVE GOD'S COMMANDS? source: KJV Bible
D
Do we really love God's commands? For many people, the commandments have become God's "suggestions." Corporate theft has become so common it no longer rates headlines. Adultery??? It's so common many have forgotten that it's one of the "thou shalt nots" and violence in word and deed is rampant and no one seems to remember "thou shalt not kill." The media delights in leading us in the way of covetousness. After all, don't we all need fancy cars and expensive vacations? We forget God's message, echoed by Jesus, to take care of the poor while we indulge in luxury. Putting God first, refraining from cursing, keeping Holy the Sabbath, respect for authority, eliminating violence, fidelity in marriage, honesty in word and action and being satisfied with the gifts we have without envy of others, are all proscribed by the commandments but seem to have gone out of favor in today's world.
It can be difficult to do the right thing when all around us say that this is old fashioned, that the commandments were meant for a different time and place. Yet, theologians of every denomination tell us that these are actually the basis for any civilized society. Perhaps, the lack of adherence to the commandments is the reason our civilization has become so less civilized! We need to get back to basics and re-examine our lives in respect to the commandments. As I began this reflection, do I really love God's law?
Prayer Lord Jesus, Your WORD is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my pathway. I realize Father that your law is not to enslave me but to guide me. Help me Lord Jesus, to be transformed by you WORD. Let YOUR WORD be the beginning and end of my life. Importantly let I not be a hearer only but a doer. Lord it's easy to say I love your Law but you're not looking for lip service but manifestation , help me to do it and live it ! Thank you Father for this grace .

Same Works as Jesus did by: Dr André and Jenny Roebert John 14:12 (NLT): "I tell you the truth, anyone who believes in Me will do the same works I have done, and even greater works, because I am going to be with the Father." It might seem daunting to think that Jesus expects us to do the same and even greater works than He did while He was on the earth. Especially when we only think of our humanity compared to the supernatural power that flowed in and from Him. The beautiful revelation is that Jesus was fully human while on earth. He grew in wisdom, stature, and favour with God and man. He obtained power and insight from spending time with His Father. He was completely dependent on Him for instruction, direction, and power! Being filled with the Holy Spirit is what led Him to be at the right place, at the right time, every time. Since His ministry was very practical, it makes it easy to imitate Him. He ensured that we would be successful in following after Him and yield the same results He had. He was subject to the same struggles, trials, and temptations that we face so that we can never say He can't relate to our humanity. Since He made fellowship with His Father and total dependency on the power of the Holy Spirit the key to success in ministry - we can too! The New covenant we have through the finished work of the cross secures this for us! Just as He is now - the resurrected, victorious Jesus - so are we in this world (1 John 4:17)! It's time to imitate Jesus and see Him do the same work through us!
Ezekiel 3:18 "When I say unto the wicked, Thou shalt surely die; and thou givest him not warning, nor speakest to warn the wicked from his wicked way, to save his life; the same wicked man shall die in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at thine hand."
