Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – Deeply Abide

Dear one, I know the love you have for Me, yet still there have been times that you have turned to the things of the world for help. In times of stress or trouble I have not been the first of your heart. You have turned to familiar things, retreated to your comfort zone and hidden away to seek relief. 

But My child, those are such shallow waters. Anything the world offers cannot quench your thirst or give you the guidance you require. Remember, I am the way, the truth and the life. The depth of relationship that you require can only be found by abiding fully in Me.

Come to Me, dive into deeper waters and you will see the fruit it will bring in your life. Ask and it will be given to you; seek and I will be found by you. I am calling you to nourish your spirit, to go deeper, to eat the bread of Life and to carry that with you into every situation that you encounter. 

For you have been called to bring forth My light, do not squander your call. Dive in with courage and boldness, abide in Me and I will lead you to places that you have never even thought or imagined.

Activation:

Read John 15:4-7 (AMP) through once, then come back here to allow the Lord to speak to you as you ponder over each verse:

4 Remain in Me, and I [will remain] in you. Just as no branch can bear fruit by itself without remaining in the vine, neither can you [bear fruit, producing evidence of your faith] unless you remain in Me.

5 [a]I am the Vine; you are the branches. The one who remains in Me and I in him bears much fruit, for[otherwise] apart from Me [that is, cut off from vital union with Me] you can do nothing. 

6 If anyone does not remain in Me, he is thrown out like a [broken off] branch, and withers and dies; and they gather such branches and throw them into the fire, and they are burned. 

7 If you remain in Me and My words remain in you [that is, if we are vitally united and My message lives in your heart], ask whatever you wish and it will be done for you.

John 15:4-7 (AMP)

Footnotes

[a] John 15:5 – John 6:35 Jesus uses the words “I am” over twenty times in this Gospel. Especially memorable are those places where “I am” is followed by a metaphor that declares His deity and His relationship to mankind as Savior (this is the first of seven such references); see 8:12 (Light); 10:9 (Door); 10:11 (Good Shepherd); 11:25 (Resurrection); 14:6 (Way, Truth, Life); 15:5 (Vine).

    v. 4 – Ask Jesus Christ what remaining in Him really means and how to enhance this mutual relationship further with steadfast faith and obedience. Ask Him to reveal to you the areas of your life in which you need to depend on Him more for spiritual sustenance and growth.

    v. 5 – What does it mean to bear much fruit? Talk to Holy Spirit about it and ask Him to give you an image of what it may look like in your life both in the everyday and in the long term. 

    v. 6 – In agriculture, unproductive branches are pruned and thrown into the fire. Ask the Lord to show you the areas that have been burned off in your life, and any areas that He still requires to prune. Release any feeling of loss to Him, and ask for His comfort and healing.

    v. 7 – Like a vine and its branches, the relationship with Jesus Christ should be intimate and continuous. His teachings are not just to be heard but lived out. Only then, being so aligned, will even our requests reflect God’s perfect will and therefore come to pass. Ask the Lord to show you where you haven’t been fully aligned with Him. Consider how to spend time with Him in different and deeper ways. Then gradually make it a habit to come back to being in His presence for increasingly extended periods of time.

    Monday Morning Scripture – Psalm 19

    The Works and the Word of God

    To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David

    1 The heavens are telling of the glory of God;
    And the expanse     [of heaven] is declaring the work of His hands.

    2 Day after day pours forth speech,
    And night after night reveals knowledge.

    3 There is no speech, nor are there [spoken] words [from the stars];
    Their voice is not heard.

    4 Yet their voice [in quiet evidence] has gone out through all the earth,
    Their words to the end of the world.
    In them and in the heavens He has made a tent for the sun,

    5 Which is as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber;
    It rejoices as a strong man to run his course.

    6 The sun’s rising is from one end of the heavens,
    And its circuit to the other end of them;
    And there is nothing hidden from its heat.

    7 The law of the Lord is perfect (flawless), restoring and refreshing the soul;
    The statutes of the Lord are reliable andtrustworthy, making wise the simple.
    8 The precepts of the LORD are right, bringing joy to the heart;
    The commandment of the LORD is pure, enlightening the eyes.

    9 The fear of the LORD is clean, enduring forever;
    The judgments of the LORD are true, they are righteous altogether.

    10 They are more desirable than gold, yes, than much fine gold;
    Sweeter also than honey and the drippings of the honeycomb.

    11 Moreover, by them Your servant is warned [reminded, illuminated, and instructed];
    In keeping them there is great reward.

    12 Who can understand his errors or omissions? Acquit me of hidden (unconscious, unintended) faults.

    13 Also keep back Your servant from presumptuous (deliberate, willful) sins;
    Let them not rule and have control over me.
    Then I will be blameless     (complete),
    And I shall be acquitted of great transgression.

    14 Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart
    Be acceptable and pleasing in Your sight,
    O LORD, my     [firm, immovable] rock and my Redeemer.

    Psalm 19:1-14 (AMP)

    Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – Wear Your New Robe

    As I looked in the spirit, I saw Jesus standing before His bride holding out royal robes to wear. But she looked away and put on her old, worn-out clothes. There was sadness on His face but Jesus continued to hold out the new robes to her.

    The Spirit of the Lord says, “It is time for My bride to wear the royal robes that I have purchased for her! It is time for you to stand in the truth of who you are: saved, healed, delivered, chosen, appointed and empowered by My indwelling Spirit.

    Beloved, do not see yourself as unworthy or incapable. I have given you worth, and I am leading you. You are not foolish or weak. My strength and wisdom are prepared in abundance for you.

    Step out of the shabby rags that belonged to your former self. Take them off! See yourself putting them on, your new royal robes. Lift up your head and know that I have called you to carry My authority and My power into the world.

    But you are a CHOSEN RACE, A ROYAL PRIESTHOOD, A CONSECRATED NATION, A [special] PEOPLE FOR God’s OWN POSSESSION, so that you may proclaim the excellencies [the wonderful deeds and virtues and perfections] of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light.

    1 Peter 2:9 (AMP)

    Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – Experience Pure Love

    My Beloved Bride, love others well. This capacity to lead and love well comes from a heart that is pure and free. The world desperately needs role models who display integrity, do not partner with self-promotion or self-protection, and who have pure motives and character to persevere. 

    When you live in the revelation of My love for you, it compels you to love others with such purity of heart that the fruit of the Spirit is displayed through you to reveal Me. It is vital that you pay attention to the issues of your heart. 

    There is a grace in these early months of 2026 to deal with anything that would keep you stuck in offense, unforgiveness and woundedness. Love that is pure, and hearts that are free, build trust and connection in relationships. 

    People can be vulnerable and still feel safe. Experiencing pure love builds a landing strip in the hearts of those who don’t yet know Me to experience My love for them.  My love is freely given and does not place harsh demands on people. It brings healing and sets the captives free.

    Love well and lead by example with a heart that is pure and wholly devoted to Me.

    Watch over your heart with all diligence,
    For from it flow the springs of life.

    Proverbs 4:23 (AMP)

    Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – New Beginnings

    This is not a new season, this is a new beginning. I speak life over the earth, as we enter February. A month of small beginnings with mighty potential. Do not despise small beginnings. New life occurs as spring starts to show what it has in store for the summer, and the way ahead.

    I will move you into a new beginning, a new way of doing things. Let go of the old and embrace the new. It will look different than before. But it will bring joy and peace.  This new joy will be infectious to others, and they will want to know the reason for your joy and peace.

    Make sure to signpost people to Me, their Saviour, as the blessings pour into your life in this new beginning. 

    Activation:

    Take time to sit with the Lord. Perhaps take a woodland hike, a stroll along a beach, or through the park. As you take time to marvel at creation, ask God what this new beginning means for you. Ensure you embrace it and journal it so when you look back, you will know when and where it started.

    Though your beginning was small,
    Yet your latter end would increase abundantly.

    Job 8:7 (NKJV)

    Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – A Kingdom Marathon

    I saw in the spirit a man running a marathon. Every so often, he would reach out and grab water offered by the marathon volunteers. His movements were intentional, and it was important for him to spend time grabbing the water in order to finish his race.

    The Spirit of the Lord says, “2025 was a face paced year. It demanded quick, decisive decisions and movement. You have felt the urgency behind every yes, and step you have taken. 

    Now I want to teach you more. I want to teach you the wisdom and understanding of how to balance your life, your call and your assignments so you can run with Me and finish well.

    What I have called you to do does not require you to sacrifice your self-care, your family, or your relationships. What it does require is balance. This is wisdom not selfishness. You need to learn the wisdom of balance to sustain you.

    Activation:

    Be intentional with your time. Grabbing that water may look like journaling, going for coffee with a friend, date night, or family movie night. Give yourself permission to refresh yourself and your relationships. This is a Kingdom marathon not a sprint.

    He who gains wisdom and good sense loves (preserves) his own soul;
    He who keeps understanding will find good and prosper.

    Proverbs 19:8 (AMP)

    Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – Don’t Bow to Old Shame

    What are the words written on your heart? When pain strikes and situations crush, what comes out of you? I looked in the spirit and saw old altars with people clinging to them in desperation. 

    The Spirit of the Lord says, “Release the old altars! For Jesus came to remove the old, and make a new way back to Me. No longer do you sacrifice in the old ways. Jesus Christ’s death on the cross paid the price for all sin, for all people, for all time.

    Stop sacrificing to old ways of thinking. Stop bowing to old shame. Instead embrace your heart as the home of Holy Spirit. Do you have Me as the Lord of your heart? Is the altar in your heart full of life and love and Godly zeal? Am I your first love? Lay down your worries and schemes. Give yourself to Me in whole body worship. And let My love fill your heart.”

    21 Now it is God who establishes  and confirms us [in joint fellowship] with you in Christ, and who has anointed us [empowering us with the gifts of the Spirit]; 

    22 it is He who has also put His seal on us [that is, He has appropriated us and certified us as His] and has given us the [Holy] Spirit in our hearts as a pledge [like a security deposit to guarantee the fulfillment of His promise of eternal life].

    23 But I call on God as my soul’s witness, that it was to spare you [pain and discouragement] that I did not come again to Corinth—

    24 not that we rule [like dictators] over your faith, but rather we work with you for [the increase of] your joy; for in your faith you stand firm [in your strong conviction that Jesus of Nazareth—the Messiah—is the Son of God, through whom we obtain eternal salvation].

    1 Corinthians 1:21-24 (AMP)
