WELCOME TO THE CORRIDORS OF THE SHEPHERDS LIGHTHOUSE BUGLE MAGAZINE The Shepherds Bugle is the voice of Shepherds Without Borders Lighthouse Ministries; which comes out once monthly to highlight messages, news, visions, projects, strength & weakness of the United Body of the Kingdom of God. Inspired Shepherds come together monthly to write message etc for the community of God chosen. Every shepherd chosen, charged, and called by God (YHWH) to care for His flocks is officially a member. Shepherds serve as an ambassadors of the Kingdom of God , advocates for petitioning God for mankind, administrators for the handling and distributing the truth of God's Word and they need a watch tower on the hilltop to help them not to crash against the stones of temptations placed in their path by the Devil. This magazine is the shepherds’ consultant for wisdom and direction when it comes to how the work of the Kingdom of God is being carried out in different places around the world. It is also a confronter of the evil practices that are carried out in the name of the kingdom of God. It is no respecter of any particular doctrine, tradition, color, language, social status, or geographical locations. It is the voice for the united kingdom of God's body of workers in the vineyard here on earth. This magazine is the discussion leader of any topic concerning the kingdom of God and the warfare of God's people. Here you will see and post the work you do for the kingdom; however it should be clear that every work you see here is the responsibility/views of the writer who placed it there and not always necessarily the views of everyone. It is a medium to serve as an encourager for the shepherds around the world who are striving to get the truth of God's Word out even at a risk to their own families and lives. As a spotlight, we intend to also serve as a ground inspector of the work of every ministry we can and highlight their strengths and weaknesses. Shepherds, we say a big welcome to you and your flocks. Let this place be a companion and knowledge dispenser, a place where you can rest and discover your God given talents, your historian where you can view the past and log the present, the nurturer of your visions, your opportunities spotter, and critic.


I know many times when you are in the wrong and we speak about it, you might be hurt, go home and pray about it, and please come for a second look. Partake and make this place a home away from home. Make this place a secret corner for airing your views and questions that have been bothering you for a long time. Please allow Shepherds Bugle to help you develop your ministries and broken lives. To date we are sharing the word in( 65 ) nations of the world and nearly all of the major cities and towns in those countries as listed below : United State United Kingdom.

New Zealand Kuwait Luxembourg Switzerland Gambia Liberia Barbados Iceland Romania Macedonia Thailand Bahrain Turkey Indonesia Egypt Peru Estonia Colombia Argentina Mongolia Taiwan Poland Slovakia Belarus Morocco South Korea Ethiopia Antigua and Barbuda Netherlands Unknown - European Union

Unity is strength and if we are to ever reach the ends of the earth; penetrating every doctrine ,traditions ,creed, or religious belief with the living word of God , then we must united on all fronts. To date we are struggling to keep the touch burning. While the magazine is and will always be totally free of charge; we need the help of volunteers and finance to paid for electricity, housing etc. Your will contributions of any among & prayers could go a long way to assist us.


THOSE MAKING HEADLINES IN THE JANUARY 2012 EDITION OF THE SHEPHERDS WITHOUT BORDERS LIGHTHOUSE BUGLE MAGAZINE


Hungry for You! BY CATHERIN SKINNER

He humbled you, causing you to hunger and then feeding you with manna, which neither you nor your father had known, to teach you that man does not live on bread alone but on every word that comes from the mouth of the God. Deuteronomy 8:3 NIV Think about this passage of scripture and what it entails. First of all it said that He (God) humbled you. Now that you have come of age and are interring your inheritance. God has to remind us of the discipline we experience in our immaturity while on our journey through our wilderness. The wilderness is the school in which, God, uses as a method for training us up for himself! Then we see He not only humbled us through our wilderness experience but He caused us to hunger and fed us with manna. What is manna? According to the Bible, the mysterious substance called manna descended by night like hoarfrost in the form similar to tiny coriander seeds of the color of bdellium (Book of Numbers 11:7).[1] It was collected before sunrise, before it melted in the sun. The people ground it, or pounded it, and then baked it (Num. 11:8). Manna is several things. 1.In the Bible, the food miraculously provided for the Israelites in the wilderness during their flight from Egypt. 2.Spiritual nourishment of divine origin. 3.Something of value that a person receives unexpectedly: viewed the bonus as manna from heaven. 4.The dried exudates of certain plants, as that of the Mediterranean ash tree, formerly used as a laxative.


5.A sweet granular substance excreted on the leaves of plants by certain insects, especially aphids, and often harvested by ants. Spiritually manna is considered to be the Word of God. The Word is God is as revelation of God’s will and grace duly received and entertained by faith, is the food for the soul. The life which is supported by that is the life of man, and not only that life which supported by bread. The manna symbolizes Christ, the bread of life. He is the Word of God by him we live. The Lord will establish you as his holy people, as he promised you on oath, if you keep the commands of the Lord your God and walk in his ways. Deut. 28:9 We must nourish our body by reading and hiding the Word of God in our hearts daily. God promised us that if we obey His Word, He will bless us but if we disobey them He will curse us. Deut. 28 The inspired Word of God Zondervan & Matthew Henry Commentary NIV Reflections shared by Catherin Skinner


What Is The Difference Between Milk and Meat of the Word??? BY DR. LEONARD ROBINSON

Question: What is the difference between the[ milk] of the word and the [meat] of the word? Paul said desire the sincere [milk of the word] that you may grow thereby but then he told the Church of Corinth, I would feed you with meat but I cannot for you are not able to receive it. For where envy and strife and division are among you are ye not yet carnal and act like mere (unsaved) men. American King James Version (1 Corinthian 3:2a) I have fed you with milk, and not with meat: for till now you were not able to bear it, neither yet now are you able Luke Chapter 10 reveals that the revelation of the Kingdom of God was given to babes, not to the wise and prudent. Seems that the revelation of the Kingdom of God and its power and authority was given to babes and they preached the Kingdom and demonstrated it just the way Jesus did. But then those who were the wise and prudent were the Pharisees who knew the Old Testament, knew the law and were of the lineage of Abraham,and well Jesus treated them as though they knew nothing of real value in comparison to these babes who were possessing the Kingdom. Now we find Paul saying that he couldn't feed the Church of Corinth with meat for where envy, strife and division were among them were they not carnal and acting like babes who were not mature men.


I find it interesting that it seems that if one will drink of the milk of the word of the Kingdom as a babe they mature in power, authority, might and dominion, and those who think they have arrived, those supposing to know the matters of the spirit, the wise and prudent are actually a different kind of babe, one who is carnal even though well learned in the word. It truly seems, no it is a reality that while many would want to be deep in the word the greatest of word is found in the simplicity of the gospel of the Kingdom of God. Peter and the fellows appeared to be unlearned men, yet because they had been with Jesus they were wiser than all their contemporaries. May everyone receive the admonishment,yet encouragement to get back on the bottle (the milk) of the word of the Kingdom of God so that we can grow thereby. Too many have thought they were grown but stopped being like a mature babe and instead became immature babes operating out of envy, strife and division, So I guess the answer here is that the milk of the word is the meat of the word when the foundation of the word is the central message of Jesus that we are not only to repent for the Kingdom of God is at hand but we are to preach the same message, obtaining the same results, recognizing that the dominion of the Kingdom starts with dominion over me. We are also supposed to preach that same Kingdom message and experience the same result that Jesus did over 2000 years ago and in so doing we will have become like those who were unlearned but had been with Jesus instead of being as the wise and prudent who knew all the word but didn't have any real revelation because no matter what they believed, if they rejected the Kingdom, its urgency, power and presence they only had a historical reference to how God moved but no present revelation to how God is moving. Matthew 6:33 Seek ye FIRST the Kingdom of God and His righteousness....


If you are going to grow and mature it won't be by the abundance of knowledge but it will be by the abundance of submission to the sovereignty of the King. Many of us have been saved too long to still be big ol grown up babies (immature) not being able to live the milk of the Kingdom while feasting on the meat God reserves for the mature, full grown where neither envy, strife or division is found.

“Selah brings Revelation” BY JEFF GODSOWN

We, who write the things of revelation that God gives us to share, time and again see canned answers, either agreing or disagreeing, but few times do we see someone elses revelation. God is good and He made it clear we are to contemplate, even chew on His Word and His revelations. What we get to see maybe agreement, and that is satisfying for a short time, but I find, I’m not getting satisfaction from agreeing words. I’m looking for sustanance from the revelations that people gain from the revelations and or teachings that we give to help you live a Holy life. I have noticed, when I post something, there are a lot of likes, but it just serves to make me wonder, did you really read it and selah or chew on it, seeking God.

H5542 sel창h BDB Definition: 1) to lift up, exalt 1a) Selah


1a1) a technical musical term probably showing accentuation, pause, interruption Selah the end; a pause The word selah has many variant definitions, but ultimately, selah means to pause as if in contemplation. Php 4:8 Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things. Php 4:9 Those things, which ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, do: and the God of peace shall be with you. We bring forth fruit from teachings and revelations, food for thought that brings forth repentance, so why are we so quick to dismiss? God is trying to reach stoney hearts to turn them to hearts of flesh filled with compassion for those who are hurting, is He getting through? Only God Himself, the One who sees our hearts and knows our secrets, knows the truth of this. Have we come to the conclusions of lack of interest in what is said, out of distrust? We are all called to individually seek God, His kingdom, and His righteousness, not for the sake of Apostles, Prophet(ess)s, Preacher, Teachers, or evangelists, but for yoour individual sakes. Why then quickly dismiss, the things God gives you through His anointed, that were given by God, through His anointed to help you. Don’t you know that God speaks through many forms? Do we not understand how desperately God wants your success and this success He provides, will turn you into the righteous overcomer, God said would be with Him for eternity? Don’t just hit the like button or pass by, thinking you have it all together, no one is that smart or that good that they don’t need God’s help. He would not have sent the comforter, our helper, if we didn’t need God’s help. Luk 18:30 Who shall not receive manifold more in this present time, and in the world to come life everlasting. Take time, think over what you have read, apply it to your life, and see the miracle of freedom, love, health and prosperity, God has planned to bless you with.


Stop settling for less, especially when Christ said; Joh 10:10 The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly. Read, soak, complate, the things God has given you, that you might be all He said you would be if you just obey Him, learn to accept His help, He loves you that much! God bless you all!

THE FUNCTIONS OF AN APOSTLE: BY APOSTLE JONETTA McCLURE

God hath set some in the church, first apostles...1 Cor 1:28. One of the functions of an apostle, though they bare many, is to bring order to the Body of Christ. An apostle will take what is out of alignment, and realign it thru the apostolic voice of correction and healing. When God speaks a word of order thru an apostle, they will teach and instruct the Body on how to make it right. A true Apostle will always attach scripture or refer you back to the word of God when teaching you. Many throw out threats of order or correction, but cannot direct you as to how to do it. Though Paul came hard against the Galatians, he taught them thru the word. Throughout the Epistles, we find that he taught the people in power and of demonstration of the Spirit. He never left the people wondering how to be preserved, neither did he badger or degrade leaders or laypersons in the Body. He taught them. Only those of a satanic nature, did Paul deal with accordingly. 1 Cor 10:1-13, gives a perfect example of how Paul corrected, taught and warned. When he taught them, he simply explains that everyone did not survive the wilderness temptations, and were overthrown because of their sins. He teaches the present sins, and how not to fall into them. He reminds the people that God will not test you beyond what you are able, but will with the temptation, make the way to escape that you can bear it. The Apostle Paul gave the message of preservation, by commissioning the people not to sin, lest they fall. In this hour, watch for the true Apostles to come forth to realign the Body of Christ, thus bringing forth remnants; a ready people for Christ's return. Believe it! ~Catch the wisdom of this thing~ 1 Cor 1:28, 1 Cor 10:1-13, Eph 4:11


MORE THAN CONQUERORS: BY CATHERIN SKINNER

Thus saith the Lord unto you (me), Be not afraid nor dismayed by reason of this great multitude; for the battle is not yours, but God’s. Ye shall not need to fight in this battle; set yourselves (self), stand ye still, and see the "salvation of the Lord, with you, O (Catherin); fear not, nor be dismayed; tomorrow go out against them: for the Lord will be with you. 2 Chronicles 20:15, 17 I truly wonder how many people really understand these words! I know for a fact that it is not mines and when I give God back His Word and hold Him to them. He will not lie nor will they return void not only to Him but to them that believe and understand that He is truly our defense. A Lawyer in the courtroom, A Doctor in the Surgery room, A Counselor, etc... You name it and that is what He will be according to His Will and Word. Amen!! Glory Hallelujah! For the Battles are not mines, but the Lords. Victory is mines and He has shown it today....Amen!!! When our heart is fixed; trusting in the Lord, we have NO THING to fear, God has commanded us to be strong and courage’s. We have to remain humble, firm and steadfast for He is our strength in ALL things. Not carried away with every wind or bowed by every breeze; know what you know and hold what you hold, and the golden anchor of your hope enters within the veil and holds you fast. His strength is not pretentious but real.


The happiness arising from communion with God breeds in him/her no boastfulness: He/she does not talk about what he/she can do, but he/she does it; we should not say what we could/not bear, but he bears all that comes. It is my experience that we do not always know what we could do; our weakness is the more apparent to ourselves because of the strength the Holy Spirit puts upon us, but when the time comes, our weakness only illustrates the divine might, while we go calmly on conquering and to conquer. In all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved (loves) us. Roman 8:37 KJV To God are the Glory, Honor, Power and All the Praise for WHO HE IS..... AMEN!!!!

GLORY IN YOUR CALLING- PART ONE: BY JOSEPH KING

Jeremiah 1:4 Then the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, Jeremiah 1:5 Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations. Jeremiah 1:6 Then said I, Ah, Lord GOD! behold, I cannot speak: for I am a child. Jeremiah 1:7 But the LORD said unto me, Say not, I am a child: for thou shalt go to all that I shall send thee, and whatsoever I command thee thou shalt speak. Jeremiah 1:8 Be not afraid of their faces: for I am with thee to deliver thee, saith the LORD. Jeremiah 1:9 Then the LORD put forth his hand, and touched my mouth. And the LORD said unto me, Behold, I have put my words in thy mouth. Jeremiah 1:10 See, I have this day set thee over the nations and over the kingdoms, to root out, and to pull down, and to destroy, and to throw down, to build, and to plant. Ever since Precious and I stumbled into FB (we are in Africa and we are always last into techno innovations), we have been bombarded by a host of questions regarding ministry. Because we made a conscious decision to use social media networking as a platform for ministry, many precious saints have been led to share with us their need to minister, to be useful to our loving LORD.


Many apparently sense or even know that they have a calling but have been way to shy to engage in it. Indeed, many have been encouraged by our forthrighness in this regard to consider their own calling. Precious and I always pray for ministries because we know and have always known for a long time now that the work of CHRIST is going to take the entire body of CHRIST. So we pray for all believers to discover their calling. Make no mistakes about it; there are no believers without a ministry, there is no saint without a calling. Those that do not know their calling have not been attentive enough to the mighty HOLY SPIRIT. We always pray for believers in the LORD to awaken to their calling; and for those that have awakened, we always pray that they are given sufficient grace to maximize their calling. It is in this respect that I have been inspired to encourage you to glory in your calling. Indeed, Precious and I are praying that the year of glory 2012 shall be a year for all saints to discover their calling; and for maximizing on what the LORD has called all of us to do. Read this note with prayerful interest, seeking that the HOLY SPIRIT will stir you to quicken in your calling. We do this because we believe in you and in your calling. My dear, as far as God is concerned, your birth is not occasioned by chance; nor is it a matter to ever regret. In HIS wise and profoundly true impression, you are born because you are called; and you are called for great assignment. Observe HIS consideration for the prophet Jeremiah and appreciate HIS impressions over your own birth. Watch this: Then the word of the LORD came to me saying: "Before I formed you in the womb I knew you; Before you were born I sanctified you; I ordained you a prophet to the nations.� Jeremiah 1:4, 5 In this immortal assurance is affirmed knowledge and appreciation of Jeremiah in ways that exceed any mortal ponder. God claims to know the man better than his mother, better than his father, better than he knows himself; infact, better than all their knowledge put together. HE claims to have known and programmed him before anyone had knowledge of his existence.


And in that foreknowledge, HE programmed him for glorious destiny. It is important that you appreciate the generality of such glorious privilege: That predestined mandate is not a peculiar privilege unique to Jeremiah. If God is well understood, one would appreciate that HE is omniscient and indeed knows all things- past, present, and future. There is nothing HE doesn’t know, there is no one HE doesn’t know. Consequently, just as HE knew Jeremiah, HE knows everyone, including you. Before you were born, God knew you and assigned you for glory and virtue. My dear, inasfar as people go, HE knows more than HE cares to know any other specie: HE knows their every breath (Isaiah, Acts 17:24-28), their length of days (Psalms 90:10), and has indeed numbered the hair on their head (Matthew 10:30). God is very serious about people. HE created them for very serious reasons. None of them is a mistake; none of them is uncared for; none of them is without destiny and the privilege of an articulate and well orchestrated course of glory and celebration. Ultimately, all men are called for greatness, glorious service, and predestined wonder. And you are certainly one of them. You have been called. Nothing in your life is left to chance. Every step you should make, every move you should take has been carefully choreographed to ensure a glorious outcome. Reading this book is a part of your call: Destiny has occasioned your interest in this moving party manual. You aren’t reading for nothing. If any such temptation lingers in your mind, perish the ugly thought; it is a lie from hell. To be sure, the steps of a good man are ordered of God (Psalm 37:23). Divine orchestration and ordained destiny has functioned in a profound and pure spiritual way to cause you to read, study, meditate, and enjoy this book. And God’s intention throughout these pages is to include you in HIS party as a principle guest, a royal priest of impeccable standing. You are not born a failure neither to be a failure; you are not born a disaster neither are you born for disaster. Get it; understand your calling and run your destiny. You are a precious being and your birth is a divine privilege, an incredible occasion that gives opportunity to God to perform in the material realm what HE has pondered on in the spiritual realm. Without your birth a lot of God’s desires would not be possible. When HE pondered your greatness in eternity, HE needed your birth in time to realize that greatness.


When HE planned your fortune in eternity, HE needed your birth in time to put it in action. Your birth therefore makes opportunity for God’s divine plan and purpose. Thank God you were born; your birthday is a day for celebration. Before you were born, God called you. Get it; before a single soul named you, before anyone called you, God called you. You are indeed born because you were called of God. Your birth is as divine as it can get. And you are born to fulfill destiny, to carry on a glorious mandate. You my friend are a destined, programmed for greatness, called of God being. You are a privilege. Your calling explains your birth. It validates it so that neither you nor anyone has the right to regret it. Instead of cursing your birth, you ought to celebrate it. A proper impression of your birth would reveal that although you were born naked, you weren’t born randomly and neither were you born aimlessly. Your birth may have been carelessly conceived by your parents but not so with God. What your parents may have accidentally pro-created, God had carefully predestined; what they may regret, God has celebrated. It is vital that you realize that in a most serious sense, you are not merely that flesh and bone that was conceived in your mother’s womb. There is much more to you than the bundle of joy that your mother carried or the creature of regret she may have shunned away. When God speaks of knowing you before you were in your mother’s womb HE seeks to draw your attention to your prematerial existence. HE also seeks to enlighten you to the fact that you are not merely a material entity. On a most serious note, you are a spirit that inhabits a body that is managed by a soul. The birth of your body is indeed not your very beginning. It is your beginning in the material realm that we are exposed to through the five carnal senses; but that is not your true beginning. Your birth is the beginning of your flesh, in the womb we witness the beginning of your soul, but your true beginning is neither in your mother’s womb nor is it in your incarnation. Your actual beginning is in eternity, way beyond any material reality. Your spirit or what is often called the inner man begins in God. The specific person of the God-Head from whom you are hewn is Christ Jesus. HE is your beginning; HE is your ultimate alpha. You owe HIM your life.

FROM THE PIG PEN TO THE PALACE! A POWERFUL TESTIMONY BY DEBRA LYNN-LAKE ROBERTS

Bishop, I had to share this with you, I know you will appreciate it and it now helps me understand greatly why I have said some things in the past to you : ) God is growing me UP! I just saw a post from someone who was recently slammed with "pneumonia" difficulty breathing etc, just like I was, this person was healed just like I was.... from all she shares on facebook, I see her as a Spirit lead Mature Son and knew immediately why God had me read it and I want to share it with you : )...I believe the LORD revealed to me why I too got the same thing, to show me something bigger...The Body is having trouble BREATHING.....I myself did not understand the TRUTH of what Yielding to the Holy Spirit meant, check this out....Pnemua... In ancient Greek medicine, pneuma is the form of circulating air necessary for the systemic functioning of vital organs. It is the material that sustains consciousness in a body.....think about this from the Spiritual aspect....the Word I keep hearing is...teach them "The Body how to function properly" how to yield to the Holy Spirit, the function of the Holy Spirit, the Power of the Holy Spirit...Spirit and Truth Worshipers, many are still lead by the flesh because they don't understand what it means to be lead by the Spirit and to yield to the Spirit (I didn't), we have Free Will...let His Will be done! The more I personally study about this subject from God's Word, I realize how little I was taught or learned wrong! : )


Learning now and grateful for what He is teaching me! Just thought I would share that, may God use it for His Glory and for the edification of His Saints! Much love in Christ, Debra [♥] Bishop S. Liberty Sr. Thanks Debra it is just in time for if you read and understood the word God give me for 2012 ; you will note that the body might even get worse and only those who studied and understand the Truth of God word will be over comers . We must open up our spiritual self more and allow it to dominate the physical in order for proper understanding . Sometimes He does the same to me so much so that some dubbed me the weeping Prophet, yet after each period He explain why I had to go through that refinement for the understanding of others..Thanks Sister! indeed it is word for the saints and what give me more joy a conformation of what He shared about 2012 ! I miss communicating with you and pray that God give you more insight about why you are called as a Teachers ect ; a ministry in which many fishes will be caught for Christ. We love you Sister and remember to pray for us daily as we do the same for you. I often weep Bishop, I am today....God is opening my mouth and I am speaking/teaching....He is doing it and I am weeping because I know where He is leading me is so HUGE....I pray for you my brother may all we do and say give Him Glory and bring UNITY....the life I lived in the "world" is going to be used for HIS GLORY....I was the weeping woman at Jesus feet, the prostitute who He healed and made whole and now is sharing to help heal others as I do He uses me to lead them to HIM....it is so beautiful I just can't even believe it sometimes!!! There are reasons the Word mentions prostitutes so many times, no one is out of HIS reach...I wasn't! Sex, Spiritual and Physical Adultry, the true meaning of LOVE.....these are the subjects my own life can teach from, because I have first hand experience....I found out what sex was at age 4, what I thought LOVE was, it was only self centered man seeking to satisfy him....But God He lifted me out of the pit of despair, out of the mud and the mire. He set my feet on solid ground and steadied me as I walked along. He has given me a new song to sing, a hymn of praise to our God. Many will see what he has done and be amazed.

DIVINELY TEMPERED! BY MARGARET MULLINGS

A mother watched from her window and observed her oldest son as he was digging the ground with a pick axe to plant some flowering trees. To her dismay he really seemed to be working at it so hard, but he was unhappy and he complained so much. He was not making much progress with it, but he was doing his best. Immediately the mother knew this son would be skillful in another area....so she called her youngest son to do it. To her surprise the little boy tilled the ground with the pick axe and his bare hands like a tractor. He had a look of joy on his face....guess what he didn't even sweat......he made it look so easy. Then the revelation hit home to this mother that it is Yahweh who from in the womb tempers each person with everything needed to fulfill your divine destiny. Yet as parents many of us are guilty of tampering by manipulating our children into being what we want them to be, and not allowing them to be who Yahweh destined each of them to be. What if that mother had beat the son, and said to him...you are going to do this no matter what. By the wisdom of Yahweh, she saw he was absolutely failing at it.....She thanked him for what he had already done, and freed him from it.....the little boy had really given it his very best yet he failed to complete it. Sometimes when children are failing in an area it is wise to really take a serious look at which area Yahweh has gifted them. Many times that is the area they will excel in. Parents....How many times do we hear a child talking so much and say "Shut your mouth.....you are always talking. You talk too much. " ? Careful....that child could be destined to become one of the best Orator in his or her generation. The toddler who is beating all of your pots and pans to pieces so to speak. He could be destined to become the best drummer this world has ever heard. The child who is always drawing on the walls could be the best artist.....the list is endless. Question is....Do we dare tamper with what Yahweh has tempered?


In our daily walk each of us have been divinely tempered by Yahweh to do a specific work. David was tempered to slay Goliath with a sling and a stone. 1 Samuel 17:49 " Then David put his hand in his bag and took out a stone; and he slung it and struck the Philistine in his fore head, so that the stone sank into his fore head, and he fell on his face to the earth. "King Saul tempered with this when he insisted that David put on his armor coat. Fortunately for David, he insisted on completing his assignment using what Yahweh had given him. Jesus Christ was tempered to walk all the way to Calvary and although the odds all seemed to be against Him. He still kept on walking in confidence to do all that His Father bid Him to do. For He was divinely tempered to suffer beyond all human suffering.....He paid the ultimate price. What about you ? Do you know what you have been divinely tempered to do in this life ? Are you passionate about what you are doing ? Does what you are going through seem like too much to bear ? I tell you....You are tempered by Yahweh to make it triumphantly through in spite of the nay Sayers, the back biters, all of the liars, the wizards, the witches, the dream killers, and all of the haters. Keep on abiding in the word and in constant prayer...communing with Yahweh ! You have been divinely tempered to do mighty exploits to win souls for the Kingdom of Yahweh......Give Him PRAISE !


How David's Small Tent Turned Into a Tabernacle of Worship! : BY SUSAN C. CLARK

After David slew Goliath, the Scripture says, "David took the head of the Philistine and brought it to Jerusalem, but he put his armor in his tent" (1 Samuel 17:54). As we look at the armor of Goliath, I am persuaded to believe that David had to stretch out his tent a bit to hold it all. Goliath was believed to be about ten feet tall, so quite a bit of armor was covering his body. 1 Samuel 17:5-7 says Goliath had a bronze helmet on his head (remember Goliath had a big head) and wore a coat of mail (a flexible body armor made of small overlapping metal rings). This coat weighing 5,000 shekels of bronze is believed to be about 125 pounds. He had a bronze armor on his legs and a bronze javelin (a light spear for throwing) across his shoulders. And the shaft of his huge spear was like a weaver's beam (approximately 3 inches in diameter) with the spear's head weighing 600 shekels, or about 15 pounds. And a shield bearer went before him. David probably took the bearer's shield also. The Trophies Inside David's Tent Created the Atmosphere of Worship! With all of Goliath's armor in David's tent he would never forget what the Lord had done for him and the nation of Israel. What I am about to express is my creative opinion and is not a definite word from God. But would you stretch your imagination with me to see what else may have been in David's tent causing it to be stretched into a tabernacle of thanksgiving and praise?


Besides Goliath's armor, I believe there were other trophies inside David's tent. Memories of the legacy of Israel's past history of crossing that Jordan river overflowing all of its banks lingered in his tent (Joshua 3:7). The testimony of those "stones of remembrance" was commanded by the Lord to be handed down through Israel's generations (Joshua 4:7). David heard about those stones of remembrance from his father. I believe that is why when David went to face Goliath, he got to thinking, "I'd better find me some stones." So he went to a brook. Picking up that first stone, he relived that miracle crossing of Jordan and his faith began to rise. Picking up the second stone, he remembered that bear. That bear was gone, except for the bear skin rug. Reaching for the third stone, he remembered that beautiful lion rug on the floor of his tent. In the evening David would often lean back in his "bear" chair and rub his bare feet over the back of that lion's fur. What came to take him out was laying so sweetly under his feet! Gripping that fourth stone, he remembered Goliath had a brother with three sons. He thought to himself, "I'd better make that five stones in case the family shows up!" And as he picked up that fifth stone, he saw Goliath's name written all over it and a shouting spell broke over him, "I feel a giant killing anointing coming down all over me; Saul, let me go kill him!" It was "faith gone wild!" I believe the four stones that David didn't have to use were kept in his tent also. It seems reasonable to believe that David had to keep stretching the curtains of his dwelling place and lengthening his tent stakes to hold all the weapons and trophies the Lord was giving him through his enemies. David's tent became a tabernacle of ongoing praise and worship, making him a full-time worshipper and a part-time shepherd! Even in times of discouragement, his past victories caused him to believe he would "see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living." The Greatest Trophy in David's Tent Last but not least, I believe David's biggest trophy in his tent that created such an atmosphere of violent worship was himself. It flowed out of him from knowing he was God's trophy of grace. Even later with David's failure with Bathsheba, knowing he was a great sinner, he knew he had a great Savior!


The Greatest Weapon in David's Armor "Remembering" was perhaps the most powerful weapon David had as his armor. His remembrance made him a giant killer. Remembering is perhaps a nation's most powerful weapon against her enemies. When a nation remembers her past victories, she rises again, becoming unstoppable. Even remembering our past tragedies, such as 9/11, brings forth a unity and resilience in our nation to overcome our next impossible odds.

" Daddy It Hurts� : A MUST READ FROM THE DEPTHS OF THE HEART OF A ABUSE CHILD :BY BABSIE VAN DER BERG

This is A TRUE STORY My name is Chris, I am three, My eyes are swollen.. I cannot see. I must be stupid, I must be bad, What else could have made, My daddy so mad? I wish I were better, I wish I weren't ugly, Then maybe my mommy, Would still want to hug me. I can't do a wrong, I can't speak at all, Or else I'm locked up, All day long. When I'm awake, I'm all alone, The house is dark, My folks aren't home.


When my mummy does come home, I'll try and be nice, So maybe I'll just get, One whipping tonight. I just heard a car, My daddy is back, From Charlie's bar I hear him curse, My name is called, I press myself, Against the wall. I try to hide, From his evil eyes, I'm so afraid now, I'm starting to cry. He finds me weeping, Calls me ugly words, He says its my fault, He suffers at work. He slaps and hits me, And yells at me more, I finally get free, And run to the door.


He's already locked it, And I start to bawl, He takes me and throws me, Against the hard wall. I fall to the floor, With my bones nearly broken, And my daddy continues, With more bad words spoken. 'I'm sorry!', I scream, But it's now much to late, His face has been twisted, Into a unimaginable shape. The hurt and the pain, Again and again, O please God, have mercy! O please let it end! And he finally stops, And heads for the door, While I lay there motionless, Sprawled on the floor. My name is Chris, I am three, Tonight my daddy, Murdered me.


And you can help, Sickens me to the soul, If you read this, And don't pass it on IiI pray for your forgiveness, You would have to be, One heartless person, Not to be affected, By this Poem. And because you ARE affected, Do something about it! So all I ask you to do, Is pass this on! Send this on if you are against child abuse


THE DETERGENT FOR HUMAN SINS: PASTOR EMMANUEL BABA ISIAKA

HAVE YOU BEEN TO JESUS FOR THE CLEANSING POWER ARE YOU WASHED IN THE BLOOD OF THE LAMBINCLUDED IN YOUR SALVATION PACKAGE IS SALVATION FROM SIN AND TRANSFORMATION FROM DOGSHIP TO SONSHIP. THE ONLY SAVIOUR FROM SIN IS JESUS CHRIST AND THE ONLY DETERGENT THAT CAN CLEANSE OUR SINS IS HIS BLOOD MEMORY VERSE: Matthew 1:21 21And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.

BIBLE READING: John 1:11-12 11He came unto his own, and his own received him not. 12But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: A common mistake made by many, is to blame others for their misfortunes in life. Some blame the devil, their father-in-law or mother-in-law, etc.


but do you know that you can be your own worst enemy? Way back in Genesis, everything was in order until Adam and Eve sinned. When God visited and began to ask questions, they laid a bad precedent, which many still follow today – blaming somebody else for their wrongdoing.

Sin scatters: it disorganises God’s great plan for a person and plunges the fellow into a life out of order. Romans 6:23 Says "For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. Although God created man to live forever, he began to die because of sin. So if you can take away sin from your life, you would have won the greatest victory because all other battles are secondary. Jesus ic called the Saviour because of your sin. No man can deal with the problem of sin except through the power of the blood of Jesus. That is why there is no true salvation without Jesus. Sin is so strong that it can stop your prayers from being heard. (Isaiah 59:1-2). Are you saved? Have you been washed in the blood of the Lamb of God? Matthew 1:21 Says "And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins. No matter how enslaved you are to that sinful habit, there is deliverance for you. 1 John 1:7 Says "But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin. Meaning as powerful as sin is, the blood of Jesus is much more empowered to wash away all sins. Until a man is born again, his life, though precious before God is not better than a dog’s and God says He cannot give the children’s bread to dogs. Philippians 3:2 Beware of dogs, beware of evil workers, beware of the concision. Revelation 22:15 For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie. Matthew 15:25-26


Then came she and worshipped him, saying, Lord, help me. 26But he answered and said, It is not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast it to dogs. But when the sinner is saved then he becomes a son according to John 1:1112 He came unto his own, and his own received Him not. But as many as received Him, to them gave He power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on His name: Are you seen as a dog or as a son? As long as you take pleasure in taking your alcoholic drinks, smoking, engaging in sexual sins, doing drugs, stealing, lying and defrauding others, you are seen as a dog. But God loves you so much, He wants to turn you into a son. Go to Him now with a heart of repentance, truly sorry for your evil deeds. Then, invite Jesus into your heart asking Him to come and live His life through you. THE FATHER’S BLESSING:�I pray for someone reading this message today. You will be endowed with wisdom to guide your salvation with fear and trembling. You will not love the world and all the worldly things more than your love for God. Sin shall have no dominion over you. You shall be delivered from that sinful habit and that sinful addiction. You will hate them passionately. You will not go back as dog to your vomit concerning the addictions and sinful habits. The blood of Jesus will cleanse you from all unrighteousness. The Lord will restore you along with all the benefits of the son-ship that you have lost to sin in Jesus Name. (Amen)

PRAYER ACTION POINT FOR TODAY Ask God to completely destroy the stronghold of sin over your life.


PEACE BE ONTO YOU

One word most spoken by men and angels which is in every religion and is also the wish of every human is the word peace. It is a way of greetings & blessings in all religions and the desire of every living thing on the face of the earth, sky and sea, sung and pronounced by angels when bringing good news from above. For us Christians we remember it as the first words spoken after Christ arose from the grave which usher in a new era for man &God & for the Jews a very treasured and sacred word spoken with calm emotion that is felt and Islam uses it as a way to greet, while politicians use it to uplift themselves or their self interest; especially when it concern two or more groups of people, etc.


But the question that comes to mind is are we sure we understand the full meaning of the word peace? When we utter this word peace, what comes to our minds? I have been puzzle about this very popular but most misused word on the face of earth for a long time and asked the Holy Spirit to grant me insight into its mysteries. I began to become even more curious when during my research a well learned scholar & friend told me that it is impossible to get peace on the face of this earth. He give series of examples and concluded that there have never live a man or woman who have live a life of total peace on earth. Well if so, why did God pronounced or gave it as a gift, and men and angels accepted it? If I accepted his definition as logical as it seem than I would be making God a liar and definitely my God does not lie. I was sad and confuse for if this is how men thought about peace than it is very limited in their hearts then God intended it to be ; and with out knowing it’s full meaning ,it’s true application will be lost to mankind and use as just another empty spoken word. That is why together in unity I want us as followers of the Kingdom of God to take a deep look at the word so widely use in this world & Heaven by men and angels from the biblical perspective and see if it is just another abstract word which true meaning is unattainable on this earth or we have misread its meaning and therefore cannot fully apply it to our life situation.


Like every precious gift given us from heaven that true meaning must be understood fully first by accepting and believing in Him who give you the gift ; peace must be appreciated , accepted & believe is possible before your eyes can fully be open to it’s application on this earth. You are right its principles are not only applicable to any particular person, place or thing, religious or secular, not only heaven but also earth, but you are wrong if you believe peace cannot be found on this earth. Maybe it is confusing to some because it is a universal word, but that is even more reason to know what its real meaning is in order to apply it to our selves or universally. Now let’s dive into the written word of God and see if we can find some answers that are applicable to us universally. From the social perspective Peace has been applied to & by faithful men of old and results given and received physically. We see Abraham in Genesis 13:8-9 applying the word peace when he told his nephew; “let there be no strife….for we are brethren” Here we see Abraham sacrificing the choicest part of the land to Lot because he wanted peace and got results for God blessed his portion of land. We can also see that no man knows the future and the green pastures you see today might just be deathtraps in the future. As you can see Abraham believed in peace and was therefore able to apply it properly to that particular situation socially.


Because he believe he submitted to his younger relative wishes ;knowing fully well that God who was the witness to that transaction would reward him even more fully; for peace is precious in His sight and He reign blessings upon the peacemakers. We can also gain insight about social peace by examining Gen.2629; in which we find another definition of peace when Abimelech & his servants strive with Isaac over wells he dug, took it from him and send him away; but when they saw the blessings of God with him they came to insured them selves by begging for peace. Someone who has the light of God the giver of peace is qualified to give peace to their opponents when asked for. It exalts you in the eyes of both men and God. In our world many who grow from grass to grace forget those whom they pray, ate, play, wept, and fellowship with. Their changing status has now given them reason to forsake old friends, playmates or prayer partners. Social peace can also be spoken by a faithful servant of God upon his people. For Mordecai in the book of Esther; after his victory and ascension in rank of the land; blessed by God with much wealth was now able to speak peace upon his people. Esther 10:3 and David in psalms complained to the Lord about the lovers of war instead of peace in psalms120:7. Social peace means peace between man and man and can only be applicable by our interactions with each other. It is better applied with our focus on God who blesses the peacemaker.


In each of the examples above we see peace whether sought for or given spoken & attained. When God gives social peace; He does so by blessing the very land we walk upon and we can wake up and go to sleep without fear, even the evil beast will flee in our presence and no weapon will equal our strength. With peace in the land even the stones of the ground will be in league with you.(Lev26:6; Job5:23-24). Real peace can only come from God and be fully understood and applied by those who know God. It is written: “In that day will I make a covenant for them with the beast of the field, and with the fowls of heaven, and with the creeping things of the ground: and I will break the bow and the sword and the battle out of the earth, and will make them to lie down safely”. (Hos. 2:18) Let’s examine ourselves and answer these questions in order to get a physical about the type of peace in our lives. Is the land you walk upon blessed? Are the members of your family blessed? Do you go to sleep every night and sleep without fear? Are the beast of the fields and the stones of the earth in league with you? If not you do not yet have peace that means there is yet something lacking that we need in order to have total peace here on earth. Whether you are in your own country or not you must seek the peace of that land; whether you were taken there by force or willingly,


in order to have peace you must seek the peace of the place you dwell. How many of us selfishly seek peace for ourselves through our bank account, our children education, luxurious wealth or on the tables of so-called peace talks. There is only one way to get peace whether for an individual or society and that is from God. (Isa.45:7) If there must be peace in your families you must teach your family about the things of God and not pamper them when they go after the ways of the world. Mama and papa smokes, drinks and even have sex in front of the children; back them when they get into a fight wrongfully, hail them when they steal their first candy from the supermarket laugh over their evil ways. Remember what you plant into the soil is what you will get out. Have you study how the children of parents who fight turn out or the children of pastors who steal the money from God treasury turn out? I tell you the truth there is usually no peace in such families. Such parents go to sleep night after night in fear for the stones of the earth are very sour in the land for them and peace have fled regardless of how much earthly wealth they acquired. Why do you think lovers of peace are called the children of God? Fellow friends it is because Peace is one of the attributes of God. When you seek peace you are seeking TRUTH that brings about light and understanding into the things of this very evil world. Ever seem a bunch of flowers growing on the mountainside that is unreachable?


See how beautiful they look and the strength that glows out of their unity. Peace means fellowship, relationship with God and man that is built upon a foundation of truth, love and unity. I have yet to see that community that is as peaceful as the flowers I describe, but I know such a community or even fellowship is possible here on earth. In our world today many are seeking peace in the wrong direction. I tell you the truth; you can never buy peace with power, status, wealth or influence. If you are seeking physical peace; you must be s humble as Abraham. Not only is social peace possible on earth; so also is spiritual peace possible.

SPIRITUAL PEACE What is Spiritual Peace? Job describes it as that Divine protective covering that can only be given by God if we acquaint ourselves with Him; which brings to our lives a special delight just by lifting our eyes to the Almighty. It brings about a kind of quietness that no dark can penetrate with trouble. It assures those who are under such protective covering of Divine safety; therefore they can comfortably lie down day or night and sleep in peace because they will behold His face in righteousness and wake up in His likeness alone. Such peace is a rare gem and precious to have in our lives.


Even after conversion, baptism, etc many including those who are preaching the word of God daily cannot find spiritual peace and therefore denied its existence or claim it is abstract and cannot be obtain here on earth. Spiritual peace which comes from the Lord can be obtained but there are guidelines set by God for receiving it. Remember your ignorance is no excuse for disobeying the laws of God. Even Jesus Christ came not to destroy the laws of God but uplift them. Many claiming to be in Christ ignore the laws of God and remain blinded to many mysteries of His Truth. To obtain spiritual peace we must be ready to always walk in the counsel of those who truly believe in God 100 percent (not those who believe in a partial God or only a part of God Holy Written Word, but God in His entirety ) not following the ways of the world (one foot in and one foot out) or fellowshipping with those who would rather spend time gossiping, concocting schemes of evil or diluting the Word to fit into their evil styles of life(quoting every verse in the Bible, but living every inch for Satan). Spiritual peace is for those who honor ever word, dot scripture ever written in the Holy Written Words of God; mediating day and night upon them and gaining insight into their true meaning. When we fear the Lord, He teaches us in His ways and causes our soul to dwell at ease.


Wow, do you know what it means for your soul to dwell at ease in this dark and troublesome world? It means Peace in all that you encounter here upon the face of this earth. It brings about strength to endure in every life situation. When we place our delight in the things of God He grant us the desires of our heart which are in accordance with His Divine will for our destines. But we are instructed that in order to gain Spiritual peace which causes us to inherit the earth, we must be meek, thereby feeding into abundance of peace. Don’t take my word for it but the Word of God ask us to observe the perfect and upright man/woman carefully , for the end of such a person is always peace ,regardless of what the seasons dwell to them. This gift of God that came to bring light to our dark lives is called “THE PRINCE OF PEACE” because He who is the author of peace was the only one qualified to bring spiritual peace to this earth in the flesh. He came to destroy the mountain of darkness that cover our lives and separated us from the truth. He came to remove the veil that covers our eyes that we might see that peace is possible and unity can prevail among every nation of the earth. He came to swallow up the fear of death and wipe away the tears from our eyes, take away our worries and rebuke, thus leaving us with a unique choice to live in peace forever.


The gospel of John 14:27 proves that the type of peace within Him is quiet different from the peace of the world. Spiritual peace comes from the very throne of God and is very obtainable here on earth. I will dwell more on this topic, under “Prince of Peace!� in upcoming issues of the Shepherds Magazine. To conclude I want you to know that it is very possible to live with the lions, wolves, and other beast in human form and ways if we but keep our eyes on the LORD who is the giver of peace. The very ground, stones and sands of the earth will favor us and rich or poor our lives will be worth living. We will stand out like sore thumbs on a hand fill with golden rings. It is up to you to strive to get the peace of God which is different from the peace we share here on earth and pass on the others. Meanwhile here are some scriptures you can follow up and study on your own about the importance of spiritual peace in our lives.(KJV) Job 22:21, 26;34:29 Psalms 1:1-2; 4:8;17:15;25:1213;29:11;37:4,11,37;73:25-26;9:6 Isa. 11:6-9, 13; 25:7-8


The Strength Of The Believer

A while back, as I was reading the scriptures and meditating in God’s word, I heard the Lord speak into my spirit about the strength of the believer as He led me through the first chapter of Jeremiah. At that time, I marveled with excitement at what was being revealed to me, and today, I hold it close to my heart as a solid truth for my own life, and for your life as well as a part of the Body of Christ.

Let us take a look at Jeremiah 1:18 and see what is going on there. "For, behold, I have made thee (the believer) this day a defenced city, and an iron pillar, and brasen walls against the whole land, against the kings of Judah, against the princes thereof, against the priests thereof, and against the people of the land.

God compared Jeremiah (the believer) to: a defenced city, an iron pillar and brasen walls. WOW!! Such Strength!! I have thought to myself; if only we could grasp how God sees us, it would change our whole perspective on life in so many ways. Lord, do not ever let us be satisfied with anything less than what Your Word says about us!! But Jeremiah was afraid just the same, God had giving him an assignment to speak vs. 18 "against the whole land�, the kings of Judah, the princes,


the priests and the people. - representing the stubbornness of the land, positions, authorities and unbelievers.

Jeremiah said in vs. 6 "Ah, Lord GOD! behold, I cannot speak: for I am a child." but the Lord spoke to him in vs. 7 and said "Say not, I am a child: for thou shalt go to all that I shall send thee, and whatsoever I command thee thou shalt speak." Then in vs. 8 God reassured him by saying "Be not afraid of their faces: for I am with thee to deliver thee."

I will always remember when my dad was living, he spoke these words to me and they will forever ring in my ears. He said to me "Joany, no venture, no gain" What he was conveying to me was, in order for gain to come, I needed to step out in faith; forward movement. Thank you dad for those wonderful wise words!! How true they are in every aspect of life.

So often, instead of stepping out in faith and doing what God has put in our hearts to do, we allow fear to stop us. But God does not want us to be afraid to walk out His will; He wants us to fulfill it!! He has purpose for our lives, and we are to be a light in a darkened world! God assures us in His word that is right here with us, watching over us; watching over His Word as it flows through us, making sure it accomplishes that which He intends for it to accomplish. He is our Rock, our Fortress, our Strong Tower and our Defense and as we move In Him, we will definitely see God results and we will see gain.

Joany L. Aquila


Ok. Here’s the deal. If we call ourselves CHRISTIANS then we should be concerned primarily with the words and teachings of CHRIST, right? Here’s what Jesus has to say about “holiness:” NOTHING! I have this – dare I say – revelation on teaching the Word of God: the Gospels are the FOUNDATION for ALL teaching, followed by the remainder of the NT (which only ILLUMINATES the person and Word of Jesus, followed by Genesis (which is God’s MISSION STATEMENT), followed by the books of poetry (which are types and shadows of the LOVE and WISDOM of God), then the Prophets (who POINT TO Jesus and His Kingdom)’ followed by the law (what we’ve been DELIVERED FROM because Jesus FULFILLED IT). That said, the Bible says “be ye holy for I (God) am oly. Here’s the bad news: YOU CAN’T BE HOLY AS GOD, NOT EVEN CLOSE. Your best efforts will frustrate you at best, and brand you as a hypocrite at worst! To get to the crux of this, we need to have knowledge of what makes God, “GOD;” at least one we can wrap our peanut brains around. Here’s one thing that we can wrap our finite minds around: one of the key attributes of God is that He and his Word are one, inseparable!


Because the Entire universe is suspended by the Word of His Power, the moment He violates His Word, He ceases to be “GOD” and He ceases to be Holy! So the ONLY way we can even emulate His Holiness is to emulate how He keeps His Word. We can NEVER be as good, pure, or clean as God, but we CAN be men and women of INTEGRITY; that is we say what we’ll do and do what we say IN ALIGNMENT WITH GOD.’S WORD! Holiness does not equal righteousness. Righteousness is right standing with God made possible ONLY by the Blood of Jesus. Holiness is our conversation or LIFESTYLE. but to that end, we will never be as good as God and attempts to do so start us on a slippery slope to works, effectively nullifying grace. Tis vain attempt to accomplish holiness trough works has resulted in the kind of religious schizophrenia that makes people run from “Christians” instead of running to Christ. Y’all, this is how we BE holy. Trying to DO holy apart from this is doomed to fail. © 2011 – Derrick Day (www.derrickday.com)


In 2012 Suffer the Children to Come to Me ~ by Susan C. Clark

In 2012 Suffer the Children to Come to Me Through the Voice of the Innocent The Lord says, "Suffer the little children and lead them into My presence. I am calling them to come to Me. I am awakening your youth and it will be from the mouth of babes that I will speak; I will speak to them through dreams and visions, and they will encounter angelic visitations from My throne room. Through the voice of the innocent, whose minds are fresh and new from My heart, they will speak and declare the oracles of the Lord at the least expected times, but they will hear and they will say what is from My heart. They hear My voice and they see My face, for My Kingdom belongs to them and I have opened their eyes to see Me. "Watch the children in the peculiar things they will do that will astonish you and inspire you. I have already chosen them and anointed them. Watch them as they play, watch them as they grow, watch them as they speak, watch them as they sing. For they will prophesy out of the honesty and purity of their hearts and they will restore hope to the downcast and to nations at unrest. I will give them a dream and they will say, 'Mommy, I had a dream last night.' I will speak to them and they will say profound words of wisdom that you know can only come from above. You will know it is not their natural minds. It will be divinely inspired by Me and I will anoint their words."


A Higher Frequency of Hearing "They will manifest what I say in their art, in their speech, in their songs and in their dreams. For I have given these little ones a higher frequency of hearing the sound of My voice. The sounds of Heaven they will hear in their hearts during this time are untainted by this world. For it is the pure in heart that shall see Me, and they do see Me. It will be imperative to guard their pure hearts, to guard their pure eyes, to guard their pure ears. I have consecrated them and I have set them apart for Me, for My purposes and for a specific work. Each one is unique with a different virtue, and I will begin to reveal to you, parents, grandmothers, aunts and uncles, what is their special and specific endowment from on high. "For I send a commission to the parents to guard their purity in an impure world and to guard their precious hearts, but I have also put a guard upon their lives so that they will be nurtured by My voice, by My love. Do not forbid them to speak, for I have something to say through them at specific times. Stay alert to them and listen to the words of wisdom that I will flow out of their mouths that will be too intelligible for them to speak from their natural minds. I have increased the ability to perceive upon this generation of children, and their discernment will far surpass even those that refuse to hear My voice. I have chosen them as a representation of My heart for you to see Me through their eyes and through their unconditional love." God's Heart is Like the Heart of a Child "Yes, My heart is like the heart of a child, and I choose to speak to them and through them face to face. Come and learn from them. Let the little children be your teacher in humility and in kindness, in forgiveness and in unconditional love. Let your heart be revived and blessed by them. They are My gift to you! "Come as a little child, like them, that I may reveal to you what is to come and that you may partake of My divine nature in the purity and simplicity of childlike faith. Follow the example of these little ones into the journey of My heart. Become a little child again to Me. Lay aside every weight that blinds the pathway and highway to the realm of My holiness. For without holiness no one shall see the Lord, and I have ordained praise upon their lips so that they can easily see Me and be with Me even while they are here on this earth.


Honor them as I have honored you and cherish the gift of purity they will teach you with," says the Lord. A Call to Return to Innocence In 2012, God is calling all of His children, young and old, to come and sit at His feet so that He may reveal and speak to their hearts, one on one. It is a year of action to return to innocence and to allow the spirit of innocence to wash away every defilement of the enemy and every false thing that would infiltrate and contaminate. It is through purity that we will see clearly and see the Lord face to face. God's people have become weary as the enemy attempts to rob the innocence of the Church, but the Lord is saying it is through His purity that we will be strengthened as He imparts to us confidence to come boldly to His throne, because of the Blood of the Lamb, to face God with our imperfections. The only power in Heaven and on Earth that could ever make us pure is the power of God's love which was demonstrated on the Cross when every drop of Blood cried out, "INNOCENCE, INNOCENCE! They are innocent because of My Blood!" The Cry of a Child It is the "cry of the child" in the heart of God that cries out for us. It is His Blood that continues to cry out for our purity and innocence as He continues to cleanse us so that we can come to Him face to face on a daily basis. It is the cry of the humble child that He longs for, knowing that we need Him and can't live without Him, without His nurture, or without His tender care. The Lord is saying, "Don't let the enemy steal your innocence and your purity, for I have purchased it with My Blood. Even as you see the signs of the times, children being abducted and violated, the enemy has targeted the innocent and the pure in heart of the land because it is the very opposite of His nature. Innocence and purity are the cry of My heart, and it is the very nature that I reflect that the enemy cannot stand. "The enemy hates the purity of your children and the purity of your own heart. He hates the innocence of the Kingdom of God. His mission is to pollute, corrupt, defile, violate, kill and destroy everything that resembles the Kingdom of God. BUT, I have protected you! I have covered you!


I have given you eyes of discernment and ears to hear what is pure and what is right. I am guarding your children. I am guarding your childlike heart. It may seem that your childlikeness has been buried, but I see your heart, and as you come to Me, I will uncover the beauty of the cry of the child that is deep in your soul. You have been longing for Me and I have heard the cry of your heart. It was never lost, only temporarily hidden. The enemy cannot take you away from Me or out of My heart. He can only take what you give him permission to take. I paid the price for your life and you belong to Me. I will never leave you or forsake you." Innocence of Heart: A Weapon of War There is a generation of little children that God is raising up that are unique, different, creative, innovative, inspiring, witty, insightful, and who speak with wisdom beyond their years. Even as Jesus grew with wisdom in His childhood, He was growing in the supernatural power of God and learning to listen, practicing His gifts and spending time with the Father in prayer, praise and in innocence. Jesus knew there was something different about Himself just as your own children will know there is something different about themselves, and their curiosity will increase. They will ask questions about their identity. They will be drawn by the Holy Spirit in mysterious ways that will be different from generations past. The Lord is saying, "Because they have been born in an era of increasing adversity, your children, young and old, will learn to become strong and overcome every adversity. I will make their innocence of heart like a weapon of war. I will teach them how to make adversity to be their best friend, to use it for their advantage like a warrior of war. They are a generation that will not run away and cringe with fear when they see the enemy come, but I have given them divine courage and resilience to walk into the enemy's camp and take the spoil. I have raised them up as deliverers to save a generation from the enemy's violations. They will intervene like an army that comes like a thief in the night to snatch the innocent from their captors." A Word to the Recently Born To the recently born, God is raising up these natural born warriors with an instinct to become great, not from pride or of selfish ambition, but they are of a different kind.


Their humility and purity of heart will be their glory, and their mission will be to please their Heavenly Father at a very young age. They will be trained by transparency, and anything false that comes before them will be detected immediately by their God-given discernment. They will know what is pure, and they will run from anything that is contradictory to it. The Lord is saying, "It is My love that drives them. It is the ability to love and be loved that enables them to complete their mission. Love them as I have loved you. They are children of the future who are on a quest to walk ahead of their time." God has them now in preparation even as Jesus was being prepared as a child to flow in the supernatural grace of the Spirit. Over the next five years these forerunners will run faster than Elijah, for they are a prophetic generation, children that belong to the future. God is releasing a supernatural grace upon your children in 2012, and parents are mandated to train them with love, care, and precision. They are not too young to learn how to flow in their God-given supernatural graces and gifts of the Spirit. God is saying, "Do not fear that your children will be harmed or go astray. Even the older ones who have gone astray, I know how to draw them back to Me. Your prayers and cries of intercession over them have released angels and powers of protection over them. I have kept My covenant with you to protect your family, for your family is near and dear to My heart. I promised you I would take care of them, and I have not forgotten My promise to you mothers and fathers and grandparents of My heart!" A Word of Encouragement to the Parents and Families The Lord says, "Your children are your reward. I have given them to you as a trophy of My grace and My love for you. I have crowned you with a full quiver to raise up arrows against the enemies that have come against you. For each attack and each loss the enemy has caused you, I am putting arrows in your hand to shoot out a counterattack that will cause you to receive double from what you lost. Your little ones are ascenders of the Kingdom and know how to ascend to the throne room to receive the grace they need. Follow their example. I will cause your entire family to ascend above the enemy's schemes and to be seated with Me in heavenly places as kings and priests, where I will feed you and refresh you and love you," says the Lord.


A Word to the Unborn The Lord is saying, "Come forth, O generation of Josephs and Daniels, Joshuas and Elijahs. Come forth, O generation of Deborahs and Esthers, Hannahs and Marys. You are children of the future, and you will not inherit a broken economic system, a broken moral system, a broken education system, a broken government, or a broken family system. I am giving you authority and keys to My Kingdom straight out of the womb. "You will leap and jump over obstacles and tactics of the enemy even as you leap and jump in your play time. For I will give you hinds' feet to overcome and crush the enemy under your feet. You will be too swift for the enemy to catch you. Your praise will confuse them and cause a dismay in the realms of darkness. Your light will be the light of innocence, and your fire burns through barriers that were meant for your capture, but they cannot catch you. I have anointed you to slip through the hands of the enemy, and they will not be able to grasp or contain you. "Your enemies will be confounded and their strategies will have no power over you, for you are of a different kind. You are a new breed that cannot be contained in the house of bondage. You are children of freedom, and liberty is your portion and your ministry. You will bring freedom to a generation that will be born with you. Generals, and rulers, and leaders, and godly authorities will come from you. You are created to advance beyond your years, and you will defy natural laws and flow in supernatural power just as you see Me do," says the Lord. "You will not be afraid to multiply. You will give your fathers and mothers joy. You will impart goodness and healing and beauty. For My Kingdom is not of this world. My ways are not of this world. My thoughts are not of this world. My economy system is not of this world. My teaching and My words are not of this world. My government is not of this world. And you are not of this world. I have placed you higher than this world system. I know the challenges you will face. I will not abandon and I will not forsake you. Your destiny will not be aborted, for My plans for you will surely come to pass."


A Word to Pregnant Mothers The Lord is saying to the pregnant mothers and to those who will conceive in 2012, "I have already placed your seed within you. They will be vindicated by My love. I will yet raise up deliverers like Moses and youth of integrity like Joseph from your womb. Many who have been barren will conceive and multiply. Because you have sought My face and not My hand, I will give you the desires of your heart and you will see My glory as no other generation of mothers has seen before." The Lord says, "I will raise up a generation that is more pure than the world is corrupt. They will choose Me over the temporary pleasures of this world. They will think differently and they will listen. Even right now, I am birthing and intricately fabricating divine strategies in their DNA through your womb. It will be a fast work, but a permanent work." Five Years of Grace Beginning in 2012 "There will be a period of five years – five years of grace beginning in 2012. It will begin in 2012, a year of ranking and preparing your children, for I will equip you to prepare them for what is to come. As they are being formed and fashioned in your womb, so I will form and fashion you and equip you to train them. "Do not fear their safety. Do not fear to enlarge your tents. I will now begin to open up your wombs. I have declared life over your wombs this day! Place your hands over your womb and prophesy to your unborn children to come forth. They are prophets and deliverers that must come forth. "Declare My songs over them and sing to your children even in the womb, even before they are born, even before you conceive them. For My songs of love will call to them and they will listen and they will come forth. Make your quiver full and suffer the little children and let them come to Me, for theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven. It is My pleasure to give them My Kingdom. They were always with Me in My heart, and they will always be with Me just as you will be with Me, mothers of a special generation. Even your unborn are with Me now, and I will protect them and see to it of their safe arrival in your arms. I am their Defender and I am your Defender. I love your family," says the Lord.


Blessings from above to all the little children of the world! Reeni MederosWarriors International, Inc. Email: info@warriorsinternational.com

"THE CHOICE IS YOURS......TO LIVE OR TO DIE!"

PS. 118:17 says, "I WILL NOT DIE , BUT LIVE AND DECLARE THE ILLUSTRIOUS WORKS OF THE LORD." The world is changing day by day. People's attitudes about life in general has changed drastically! The crime rate has gone up, up, UP!~ And things in the world don't look too good at all. Congress is undecided about what taxes should go up and what to do about getting jobs for the 1,000's upon 1.000's of people unemployed in the USA. The politicians are "wishy-washy" about which way to go and what to do. They are so in debate with one another to prove they are the most knowledgable candidate that they have forgotten about the poor people (jobless, homeless ones). They seem to have forgotten about the elderly ones who have worked for a long time and tried to prepare themselve for their retirement years for as long as they live on earth. Everybody is concerned about the economic crisis we are in and that seems to be all around the world. The government has made so many threats of "cut backs" and always making mention of going up on the taxes for food, gas, etc. Everyday life is no longer like it used to be because of so very many changes. It seems like the rich are getting richer, but the poor are getting poorer. And that's in the United States of America just as the third world order countries who for centuries have been in poverty. It's obvious that God is not pleased with HIS people , called by HIS name who are not taking a stand for the righteousness of God. Instead, pastors are allowing more of the world's ways into their churches instead of preaching and teaching that HOLINESS IS THE WAY!


And because of their pridefulness, they can't very well preach or teach about humbleness either. Instead , greediness and selfishness has taken over in the churches. And this is not just the "mega-churches", but the competitive smallmedium sized churches who are competing with one another to see who can build the largest and best looking building . They tend to forget who the real church is. Is it that building they call church? Or is it not the people of God who are the real church? There are many murder/suicidal crimes happening in the world today. People of the world have lost hope and some men are killing their wives and children and then themselves. Some, are angry if they have been fired or "let go" off of their job and they "snap" and want to go and kill their former boss and/or colaborers out of jealousy , envy, strife anguish , bitterness and hatred!!!!!!!!!!! When the real problem is ...they had made a god out of their job and money. And when that job ended and their was no money coming in on a regular basis and they could no longer find a job making the same amount of money as they were accustomed to...they panicked! The saddest thing is to see a child of God feeling hopeless, which shows lack of faith. And since they cannot please God without living, walking and talking faith talk....their prayers aren't getting answered. And they get angry with God, man, their families, etc. And sometimes, even a total stranger gets gunned down simpley because some hurting/anguished person just "snaps" and wants to just kill somebody. He doesn't care who, he only wants to take his anguish , malice and strife out on somebody. That person doesn't have to have done anything to him, they just want to commit suicide , but first take somebody else with them! Now, my message is to the truly born again believers.......the true Saints of God, the ones who are called by Christ Jesus' name.......I came to tell you to LOOK UP AND LIVE! KEEP YOUR EYES ON THE PRIZE OF THE HIGH CALLING OF GOD IN CHRIST JESUS. DON'T GIVE UP ON GOD, 'CAUSE HE WON'T GIVE UP ON YOU! KEEP YOUR FAITH, HOPE, BELIEF , AND TRUST IN JESUS. HE NEVER SLEEPS NOR SLUMBERS! AND HE MAY NOT COME WHEN YOU WANT HIM, BUT HE'S ALWAYS RIGHT ON TIME. HIS TIMING IS PERFECT BECAUSE HE SEES OUR ENDING EVEN BEFORE OUR BEGINNING!


HE KNOWS EVERY HAIR THAT IS NUMBERED ON OUR HEAD. HE IS OMNISCIENT (ALL KNOWING, ALL WISE) GOD! Now, as I said before...the choice is up to you as to whether you live or die. Now, you might be saying, "well, I'm not about to commit suicide , neither am i a murderer. And that may be so true as far as breaking the law of man kind, you may never be arrested for murder, nor you body carried out of this world because of suicide. But, you need to know that the Bible says, "death and life are in the power of the tongue." Now, you can speak death to yourself by your attitude of unforgiveness and hatred towards another child of God; ;you can have an attitude of ungratitude of all the Lord Jesus has done for you thus far even giving His life for you on Calvary. You can praise God on Sunday morning worship, but then curse your fellow man on Monday! You can think you're "borrowing something" when you're really stealing it. That is if you have taken something from your job and did not get permission...it's stealing! It could be typing paper, pens, etc. And you say , well this is just a small thing, but you're not realizing the company has to make purchase of that paper, pens, staples, stapler, etc. And if it was yours, you wouldn't want someone to help themselves to what you had worked and bought would you? NO! Be not decieved, God is not mocked. Whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap! So ,if you have developed a bad habit of lying, cheating, stealing, and yet you want people to think you are honest, loving and kind, ..then , you need to be that , not just pretend! If you think you can bribe yourself into God's kingdom, guess again! God is not going to allow any thief , murderer, nor lier into HIS kingdom! It's time to get right, get real, and get ready for He is soon to come church!! I have prophesied before and I will repeat it again that...."JUDGEMENT HAS ALREADY BEGUN IN THE HOUSE OF THE LORD." If you don't believe it, just take a look at how God is uncovering the truth. For what has been done in the dark......is now coming to the light! He's uncovering those deceitful liers who think they have gotten away with "murder" and have been fornicating, committing adultery, stealing from the church treasure, etc. The Lord may even allow a certain amount of time to roll by and allow that person to repent and turn around from that evil lifestyle.. But, if that person or persons tell themselves, well the Lord is not going to catch me in my sinful act and they continue doing what they are doing "under cover"....when the Lord


Jesus calls time.....HE SHALL UNCOVER YOUR SINS! And He will expect not a feeble apology, but a repenitent heart. And it's godly sorrow that leads to repentance. This is a new year and a new day and as I said on my profile page on Face Book, "it's time to get a new attitude!" Now, the choice is yours to make.....to live or to die! There are those who are "walking dead men" .They are those who think they can walk around in their sins and not repent because they tell themselves, God didn't see that. Well, I"m hear to tell you...you're sooo wrong. God sees all, hears all, knows all, and ABOVE ALL....HE'S SOVEREIGN LORD, WHICH MEANS HE IS IN CONTROL OF ALL THINGS! It's time to get right , people. Get your houses in order. And that is to say , your "spiritual houses". YOu won't be able to do it all by yourself so you need to pray and seek God's face, instead of HIs hand to give you all that you want and not even appreciate your needs being met yet. When is the last time you just prayed a prayer of THANKSGIVING and lifted up PRAISES ALL TO GOD? If I, or your mate have to remind you, then.......you need to get a check on yourself (spiritual) and then declare and proclaim to the house top...... I SHALL LIVE AND NOT DIE BUT DECLARE THE WORKS OF THE LORD! The choice is yours! YOU MAY HAVE BEEN PREDICTED BY THE DOCTOR THAT YOU HAVE CANCER OR A HEART CONDITION, DIABETES, OR SOME OTHER KIND OF ILLNESS. THE DOCTOR MAY SAY HE'S DONE ALL THAT HE CAN DO AFTER HAVING TAKEN ALL KINDS OF TESTS ON YOU AND STILL CAN'T SEEM TO FIND OUT WHAT THE REAL PROBLEM IS....THAT'S THE TIME FOR YOU TO DECLARE AND PROCLAIM TO THE HOUSETOP...."I SHALL NOT DIE, BUT LIVE AND DECLARE THE ILLUSTRIOUS WORKS OF THE LORD." But, you can only say it, if you truly believe it! CANCER CAN'T HAVE YOU UNLESS YOU GIVE IN TO IT! ARTHRITUS HAS HEARD YOU PUT A "MY IN FRONT OF IT CALLING IT "MY ARTHRITIS", SO QUITE NATURALLY IT WILL PLAY UPON YOUR MIND THAT YOU ARE A FRIEND OF THAT ILLNESS. TELL LUPUS, YOU MUST GO AWAY NOW AND DON'T COME BACK! TELL YOUR HEART TO BE STILL AND KNOW THAT GOD IS GOD AND HE IS THE


GREAT PHYSICIAN! TELL IT YOU DON'T HAVE TIME FOR SUCH FOOLISHNESS AS HAVING A HEART ATTACK! TELL SATAN THAT YOUR BODY IS THE TEMPLE OF THE HOLY GHOST AND HE CAN'T HAVE IT! Then, call on Jehovah-Rophi, the Divine Healer; the GREAT PHYSICIAN AND GIVE HIM YOUR SYMPTOMS OF THE VARIOUS DISEASES AND ILLNESSES AND WATCH HOW HE TAKES CONTROL!! NOW, MY SISTERS AND MY BROTHERS, AGAIN I SAY, THE CHOICE IS UP TO YOU. DO YOU WANT TO LIVE OR DIE? WELL, I HAVE ALREADY MADE MY CHOICE.....AND IT IS TO LIVE, AND NOT DIE, BUT DECLARE THE WONDROUS, ILLUSTRIOUS WORKS OF THE LORD, MY GOD! MAKE YOUR CHOICE TODAY, PROPHETESS SISTER


"The Bride's Identity Crisis" by Jeff Godsown

I have noticed strange things in the past couple of months, brought to my attention, solely by the Holy Spirit, that took time and communication with Father, to understand, at least to this point. By God’s design, by God’s hand; Gen 2:23 And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man. Gen 2:24 Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh. The designated statute; 1Co 11:1 Be ye followers of me, even as I also am of Christ. 1Co 11:2 Now I praise you, brethren, that ye remember me in all things, and keep the ordinances, as I delivered them to you. 1Co 11:3 But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Christ is God. If the two are to become one, then why do the brides hyphenate their last names? Example; Mr Reaed Thomas and Miss Linda Blair are to be wed today @ 4:00 P M, Mr. Thomas and Mrs. Blair-Thomas, will be vacation in the Pocanos. In this hyphenated name is the identity crisi of the bride, based on world happenings and divorce rates. She, the bride, has taken on a temporary personna, with this kind of thinking, the world system has crept into the church, with bad results, such as the split personality effect and of


course, double-mindedness. The bride, has already determind, somewhere in the back of her mind, that the mariage is a bust, that will surely end in divorce, and at all costs, she will maintain her own identity. There in lies the problem, if we the bride are to be wed and one in Christ, there is no room for self or personal identities. Joh 3:29 He that hath the bride is the bridegroom: but the friend of the bridegroom, which standeth and heareth him, rejoiceth greatly because of the bridegroom's voice: this my joy therefore is fulfilled. Joh 3:30 He must increase, but I must decrease. To be the bride of Christ, is in fact to be the reflection of Christ, for it is in Him that our true identity is found. Act 17:27 That they should seek the Lord, if haply they might feel after him, and find him, though he be not far from every one of us: Act 17:28 For in him we live, and move, and have our being; as certain also of your own poets have said, For we are also his offspring. If in anywise, we are separate in our identity, or our person, then we do not belong to Christ, the one and only true hero of all ages, who fought to save His bride, died for His bride, and lives to redeem His bride, for the marriage supper. I n otherwords; how can any of us say we are His, if we have to hold onto anything of our old identity, because the worlds way of thinking, has brought us to a place of self preservation? 2Co 5:17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. How can we hold onto self, is it because the effects of this worlds governing has us running scared? Some of us walk in fear and don’t even know it, all because we think this world is the standard by which we are to live. Isa 9:6 For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counselor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. This verse is key, but at the same time, this verse dictates we need to know, intimately, our Lord and Savior. Isa 55:8 For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD.


Isa 55:9 For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts. If we are to be the bride of Christ, we cannot continue to walk in our own seperation of identity, no matter how small or miniscule the difference is, it’s still holding onto the old man, who by the way is supposed to be dead! Eph 5:21, Submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of God. Eph 5:22 Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord. Eph 5:23 For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body. Eph 5:24 Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing. Eph 5:25 Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; Eph 5:26 That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word, Eph 5:27 That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish. Eph 5:28 So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife loveth himself. If the 2 do not become one, with the husband in rightful place, by the order of God, and if the husband does not love his wife, the way God said to, then all things are out of order. If you know anything about God, God is order, not man’s way, but God’s way. He, God, laid it out there in perfect manner and anything less than God’s way, doesn’t make for unity and the 2, cannot be one, as God designed it to be.


God bless you all, and it is my hope that somehow, some way, these little things, that declare separation by God’s Word, and our personal identity crisis’s will end. Draw closer to God, listen carefully to Him, do what He says, and watch improvements in your lives take place.


THE YEAR 2012 : BY BISHOP STEVEN LIBERTY SR

2012 is A YEAR OF FULLNESS, COMPLETENESS, FRESH STARTS, POLITICAL & SPIRITUAL CHANGES IN HIGH PLACES & CHALLENGES TO OVERCOME AS THE END OF TIMES APPROACHES ! It is a very complex but manageable year for those who believe and are focus; for it is a year in which there will be many strong, bold courageous , doubting ,jealous, friends , HYpocriteS readY to betraY . don’t be SurpriSe bY tHiS description for indeed it will be a good year for many who projects will be launch and completed or projects that were struggling to survive to make fresh starts and completed. Yet we must beware for in the spiritual & physical realm there will be great challenges to over come as the battle for supremacy over the lives of men reigns on both sides. We must be more vigilant in the vineyard for the period is gradually approaching when the shadow of darkness that have been creeping over the earth changing systems in their favor; getting rid of the bible from schools and public places and introducing their own system of life in every thing natural; like fashion, religious practices etc.


Every sign indicate that the battle to take over the earth and introduction of religious persecution is graduation entering the normal ways of life. Many of the young are turning against God and replacing Him with electronic gadgets and scientific theories. On the other hand the small but courageous people of the light continued to hold fast to the truth and lift high their touches to drive away the fast approaching shadows which can only battle through persecution, indoctrination, and the majority which will bow to them in the end: yet unable to quench the light. The power to take over the Holy land and usher in a new world order with out God will be the introduction to the end of ends. I am not saying or indicating that the world will end in 2012 but I am saying that anything is possible regarding the rapid changes in both the spiritual and physical atmosphere. Many will bow to the pressure of the time when there is a squeeze upon their finances, families, and ways of comfortable lifestyles, etc ; but a few will continue to hold fast to the challenges which will collapse with time that will usher in another period of peace for a period. 2012 is the end of ends for the old system where light and darkness dwell together to a battle where darkness will put in one big but fruitless fight to extinguish the light. You who have ears will gather in the year of plenty, for the time is coming when the mere sighting of a Bible will be treasonable.


Study the scripture and keep them reserved in your memory where none can take them away even with the most powerful tools of brutality and indoctrination. Now is the period when brother will betray brother and father will betray mother in this battle. Beware and be strong for the heavens &earth is groaning in labor to give birth to the King of Kings who will quench the blazing fire of evil and bring everlasting peace to us; dividing the goats from the sheep. I wish you a blessed 2012 full of promises & challenges. Use your compass, learn to hold fast, study to be approvable and equipped when the storm comes. I know we are in a very difficult period of life but I need you if we must continue to press forward with the word of God to the ends of the earth in 2012.

How many of you want to put a smile on Gods’ face?

So many times we feel that we have in some way disappointed God by our actions or thoughts. To be honestly with you we can not disappoint God only ourselves. There are times when we want what we want no matter what the consequences are. He knows our thoughts afar off and sees every action we have taken. Nothing is hid from God about us! There is nothing we want more than to fill this thirst in our heart and to dwell with and worship our God. This is our desire. He is my desire more than anything in this world. My heart cries out to Him and stretches out my holy hand so that His glory and power will fill this place. Father fill this place with Your glory!! I have learned that as I present my worship, my heart, and my life to God in Spirit and Truth it brings a Smile to His Face every time. When we need the Favor of God to rain down on our situation call on the Name of Jesus, and watch something happen when you call Jesus, Jesus, Jesus!! Something happens when I call Your Name Jesus!!! How many of you know that you truly need God? So began to worship Him for He is the God who loves us and wraps us in His arms. There is a place where our life is changed over and that is where we belong. I long to be more like Him in all my ways! In the Presence of the Lord my God is where I belong. Only He can change, only He can make me, only He can free. God I want to be in Your arms. Wrap me Lord in your arms. Hallelujah!! Hallelujah!! I want to be changed in Your glory, I want to be in Your arms.


If God has done anything for you began to lifted up your hands and let your worship rise up out of your spirit today. Wrap me in your arms! Remove the boundaries and allow Him to change you according to His desire for you. Worship Him! Worship Him! Worship Him in all that you do. There is nothing more than I desire than to become more like my God. This is what the Lord says: “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans of prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call upon me and come to pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart. Jeremiah 29:11-13 NIV Just as a little child we have to learn to trust and depend on our God. Think about how it makes you smile when your child comes to you with total trust that you are there for him/her. That is how God wants us to come to Him. Amen Inspired by The Spirit of The Living God Written by Catherin Skinner


The Seen is Temporal, and The Unseen is Eternal...

by Kenneth White Those of us who live on earth are bound by time; for as a matter relates to the past, the present , or the future. Any other form of time measurement would be most difficult to comprehend. Today our concept of time comes from the most advanced fields of astronomy and Physics, but it`s true nature remains a mystery. Time is intangible and is called the fourth dimension which cannot be drawn. Clocks measure time as though it flows at a constant speed, but Einstein says that time in space is variable and relative to the beholder. How does time behave in other galaxies? Is it bent, as light is, by galaxies gravitational fields? The seen and the unseen, however, including `Thrones, Angelic Lords, Celestial Powers, and Rulers` which exist in this vast universe and in the heavens above, are not necessarily bound or restrained by time as measured here on earth. The past, present, and the future may for these beings be a very different concept indeed. When we on earth observe and consider great astronomical events moving at the speed of light, then in a very real sense we are being confronted by a past event that occurred a long time ago, yet for us it has only become apparent and visable in our present time. For example: `An exploding star in a galaxy far from the earth should be visable from Britain after twilight this evening`. Amateur astronomers will be able to observe the flicker of light from it`s violent death throes through a good pair of binoculars or a telescope, clear skies permitting. The supernova--the nearest of it`s kind to be spotted in 40 years--lies in the Pimwheel galaxy, 21 million light years from Earth.


The distance means observers on Earth will see the death of the star as it played out 21 million light years ago, the time it has taken the light from the exploding star to reach earth. The supernova will appear in the sky as a bright star on the edge of one of the Pinwheel galaxy`s spiral arms. While it looks more or less like just another bright star, unlike it`s companions this supernova will soon fade away, and after a few days it will only be visible with larger telescopes. The Oxford team spotted the supernova on 24th August, 2011. What for man was an astronomical event that took place a few months ago was in fact an astronomical event that occurred long ages ago.! The Mighty God of Israel `exists and moves and has His being` neither in time as measured here on this earth or in time as measured by the celestial beings that exist in the vast reaches of the universe or in the heavens above! The past, present, and the future as measured by his creation do not constrain or limit our Heavenly Father in all His works! The time measurements referred to by Moses in his Genesis account of creation, for example, are God`s time measurements, not mans. `So God formed man in His own image, in the image of god He formed him, male and female He formed both...And so it was. God saw all that He had made, and very good it was...Thus was the universe and it`s array all finished in six days. On the seventh day God ceased His work. He desisted from working on the seventh day; so God blessed and consecrated the seventh day, because on it He desisted from all His work of creation.` In God` time----Man is already in the image of God In man`s time----Man is being made in the image of God

In God`s time----Everything He made is very good In man`s time----Everything is not yet very good


In God`s time----The work of creation is finished In man`s time----The work of creation is still in progress Like the light from the supernova the finished work of God seems, in human terms, to be taking a long time for it`s impact to finally reach us here on earth; but reach us it will...Kenneth Leckey......

Breaking free from Mystery Babylon: what a great day is at hand!


Once more we are very Bless to share the word of God to you out there and pray that you will at least pass it on to someone who has been directed by the Holy Spirit to find substance for nourishment from these messages. We are also blessed by the sacrifices put into this magazine from all who contributed to it by writing these great articles. May God bless and feed you as you continued to feed His flocks. Because of certain limitations we were unable to upload all the articles in the magazine on the website; but will indeed do so before the month run out.


Look at these flags which represent the countries we are reaching. I pray yours is among the list or you can be a partner just by distributing our free magazine to places you know it has not yet reached. Again we cannot overemphasize the importance of your contributions to keeping this touch burning financially, physically, and prayerfully and with love and devotion to God. We embarked on forty days fast and prayer beginning January 4 th for God Divine presence and guidance for the year 2012. We invite you to pray along with us. We love you and as families pray that we will grow together in love and fellowship. The West African nation of Nigeria has been high on our list of concern and was the highlight of our prayers from the beginning of the New Year ; but God has answered us by reducing the political strive among the people there. Yet there is prayer needed for a major breakthrough in the religious tension between Christians and the Boko Haram sect of Islam which continues to take lives. We pray for dialog and reason to prevail. Using the Nigerian conflict we pray for all Christians in any part of the earth caught up in religious or political conflicts. We also pray for those mourning the lost of a love one, the sick, needed, prisoners and travelers divine protection, comfort and guidance.
