Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – Abound in Me

My beloved children: I am Yahuah, the God of plenty! When it feels like your time, finances, and abilities are being squeezed, do not turn to fear! Turn to me in the squeezing and the stress.

In these moments, remember who your Father is and call down the storehouses of heaven. Knock, knock, and knock some more, for the doors will open.

When the world feels tough and the fear of lack comes creeping in, take those thoughts captive and dwell on the truth of who your Father is.

Activation: Is there an area of your life where you are feeling squeezed? Maybe it’s your time or your finances. Whatever it may be, take a moment to dedicate this area of your life to Yahuah, asking Holy Spirit for His divine perspective and strategies. Declare the kingship of Jesus/Yahusha over this area of your life and ask Holy Spirit how you can steward this area in a kingdom way.

A Psalm of David

1 The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing.

2 He makes me lie down in green pastures, He leads me beside quiet waters,

3 He refreshes my soul.
He guides me along the right paths for His name’s sake.

Psalm 23:1-3 (NIV)

Whatever is good and perfect is a gift coming down to us from Yahuah our Father, who created all the lights in the heavens. He never changes or casts a shifting shadow. He chose to give birth to us by giving us His true word. And we, out of all creation, became His prized possession.

James 1:17 (NLT)

I cried out to the Lord, “Yahuah, come and save me!” He was so kind, so gracious to me. Because of His passion toward me, He made everything right and He restored me. So I’ve learned from my experience that Yahuah protects the vulnerable. For I was broken and brought low, but He answered me and came to my rescue! Now I can say to myself and to all, “Relax and rest, be confident and serene, for Yahuah rewards fully those who simply trust in Him.”

Psalm 116:4-7 (TPT)

Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – Rejected Stone

When you see the shaking around you, don’t be alarmed.
I shake the foundations that are all built, to stumble and fall just like the Jericho walls. Then, all will know there is a God who recalibrates the broken part of our hearts and rebuilds the foundation.

I continue to shake the hardened hearts to crack open so that I could put a heart of flesh and put My Spirit in union with you. I will be your God and you will be My people. What you rejected once, has become your cornerstone. And now, through your repented heart and altered course, you have become My living stone.

Activation: Once, you may have rejected Jesus and now you have become His cornerstone who carries His heart. Today, take some time to read 1 Peter, Chapter 2 slowly in a translation that you haven’t read before. Repeat if needed and read it little by little while asking The Holy Spirit for His heart. Journal the conversations with The Holy Spirit. There is a lot of truth and treasure you could find.

19 Open to me the gates of righteousness, that I may enter and give thanks to the Lord.

20 This is the gate of the Lord;
the righteous shall enter through it.

21 I will give You thanks, for You have answered me, and You have become my salvation.

22 The stone the builders rejected
has become the cornerstone.

23 This is from the Lord,
and it is marvelous in our eyes

24 This is the day that Yahuah has made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.

Psalm 118:19-24 (BSB)

42 Jesus/Yahusha *said to them, “Did you never read in the Scriptures,

‘A STONE WHICH THE BUILDERS REJECTED,
THIS HAS BECOME THE [a]CHIEF CORNERSTONE;
THIS CAME ABOUT FROM THE LORD,
AND IT IS MARVELOUS IN OUR EYES’?

43 Therefore I say to you, the kingdom of Yahuah will be taken away from you and given to a [b]people producing its fruit.

44 And the one who falls on this stone will be broken to pieces; and on whomever it falls, it will crush him.”

Matthew 21:42-44 (NASB)

Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – Lost Sheep

Remember from where you were hewn.
Remember the mighty works of My Hands and the wonders that I did in your life.

I set you free from your captivity and strongholds.
I am the God of Judgment. My judgement brought you to repentance; I judged you with justice, mercy, and goodness.

Now, I am calling you to bring in those who are lost and living in darkness. As you once lived in ignorance and these ones too are lost in deception. I will bring My people onto your path. Look for My whistle and go after them. Make Me known to them. Do what I command. Do not despise small beginnings. When you sow the seed, it reaps the harvest for My kingdom.

Activation: Pay attention to those around you, whether you are with your fellow brothers and sisters, co-workers, shoppers or even when you walk down the street. Does anyone stand out for you? This is an invitation from the Holy Spirit to press in for His heart. It may be as small as lending your hands or standing in the gap for a prayer, but do not despise the day of small beginnings.

Every way of a man is right in his own eyes, but the LORD weighs the heart.

Proverbs 21:2 (ESV)

I tell you that in the same way there will be more rejoicing in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who do not need to repent.

John 15:7 (NIV)

Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – Expectancy

Press in and hear the sound of heaven crackling with excitement!
Shake up your status quo. 
Stand under the heavens and see what I am about to say and do. 

I am coming like a rushing mighty wind; a cloud of glory!  I do not want you to miss it by being caught up in your day-to-day activities and busyness. 

Remove the things that distract you. Watch and listen. Meet with Me under the heavens.

I want to be together with My people and I want to rain down My revelation upon you. 

I invite you to host My holy presence. 
Allow My presence to expose your sin, allow My Spirit to bring you to the laver; to a place of repentance and to the blood of the Lamb that purifies you.

Activation:  The fear of Yahuah is the beginning of wisdom. Sit with Me and allow My Holy Spirit to bring you from a starting place of reverential fear into knowledge, power, counsel, understanding, and ultimately, to a place of wisdom.  Like wave after wave of the washing of the water of the Word, allow Me to bring you from glory to glory.

Rain down, you heavens, from above, And let the skies pour down righteousness; Let the earth open, let them bring forth salvation, And let righteousness spring up together. I, Yahuah, have created it.

Isaiah 45:8 (NKJV)

The fear of Yahuah is the beginning of wisdom; A good understanding have all those who do His commandments. His praise endures forever.

Psalm 111:10 (NKJV)

The Spirit of Yahuah shall rest upon Him, The Spirit of wisdom and understanding, The Spirit of counsel and might, The Spirit of knowledge and of the fear of Yahuah.

Psalm 11:2 (NKJV)

Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – This Very Purpose

I am slow to anger and rich in mercy.

I am waiting patiently for My people to return to My fold. There is an end to My patience too. You have seen it in My Word. Will you stand in the gap for the lost who walk in deception and rebellion? Will you intercede as My servant Abraham did for Sodom? Will you initiate the conversation with Me for righteous and unrighteous? Even if you are frustrated, will you still ask for My mercy as My servant Moses did for the Israelites who walked in disobedience over and over again?

My heart breaks to see the people perish in darkness.
My heart is for everyone to know Me so as to be saved from My wrath.

As I chose Esther to protect My people, will you accept My call and ask My mercy for the lost?

Prayer: Father, You set me free from my ignorance and deception. You proved to me that You are the Way, the Truth, and the Life, and reorchestrated my steps. You reordained the trajectory of my life. So now, I bring to You all who are lost in deception starting from my family to the Nations. I consecrate their hearts to You and ask You to establish the Fear of Yahuah, in their hearts in Your goodness, I ask in the Mighty Name of Yahusha. Amen.

I, even I, am the Lord, and apart from Me there is no Saviour.

Isaiah 43:11 (NIVUK)

Instructions on Worship

1 I urge, then, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for all people—

2 for kings and all those in authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness.

3 This is good, and pleases God our Savior,

4 who wants all people to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the truth.

5 For there is one God and one mediator between Yahuah and mankind, the man Christ Yahusha,

6 who gave himself as a ransom for all people. This has now been witnessed to at the proper time.

1 Timothy 2:1-6 (NIV)

Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – Priority

My children, will you go deeper to hear the depths of My heart?
As a friend, I long to share the things that are most dear to Me, but I ask who there is who will come to listen?
And when you hear, will you steward what I share well?

For this heart-to-heart sharing, you need to shut out the cacophony of voices around you. You say you are busy, but you are not too busy to feast on entertainment and social media! Be honest and make me a priority, for I will share the deep things of My heart with those who pursue My depths. What friend shouts deeply personal things to another friend? No, they don’t and neither do I.

If you want to truly know Me, you need to be still and withdraw from other voices. Then, you will hear the deepest confidences of My heart. Those who do will carry anointing, authority, and power to be effective in the world.

So come to me to hear.

I am done with a powerless people who rely on their good ideas to represent Me in the world. I want to co-labour with you to show the world who I am: the God with every solution and strategy the world needs. So come.

Activation: Allow these words to stir your heart. What do you spend time on that could be better spent with Yahuah? How could you shut out the noise of the world to meet with Yahuah – turning off your phone, going to a different space, what else? Tell Yahuah you want to know Him heart to heart. What do you hear Him say?

Call to Me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know.

Acts 33.3 (NIV)

So we are Christ’s ambassadors; Yahuah is making His appeal through us. We speak for Christ when we plead, “Come back to Yahuah!”

2 Corinthians 5:20 (NLT)

Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – Don’t Run Dry

Don’t let the oil dry within you.
Don’t wait till it runs out.

Do not be like the seven foolish virgins who were without the oil. They didn’t allow Me to circumcise their hearts or connect to their Master to keep their oil overflowing. They weren’t prepared. Instead, they were distracted and allowed their oil to run empty.

My oil trickles within you when you submit your whole life to Me. It trickles continuously through crushing and squeezing out all impurities that I have not orchestrated in you. Just as the olive goes through a process of crushing to produce pure oil, My oil trickles through a daily process. This is where you submit your will to Mine by taking up your cross, dying to yourself, and you keep following My will.

You are asking me to burn you for My ways and My will!
How can My fire burn when there is no oil in you?
How can a lampstand burn without oil?

You are My lampstand but you need My light to shine brightly. To burn My light, a high standard is required from you. This high Standard comes from walking and living in the Fear of The Lord.

Reflection: Yahuah’s heart is for His people to walk in the Fear of the Lord. He is re-establishing the beauty of walking in reverential Fear of Yahuah so that we can walk in obedience to His ways. This is a mandate for His people to live ready every day. When you are going through a crushing process, embrace it; I am not saying it is not painful as we weren’t promised that. However, it will produce something beautiful in us in preparation for His spotless bride.

Light and Bread

1-4 God spoke to Moses: “Order the People of Israel to bring you virgin olive oil for light so that the lamps may be kept burning continually. Aaron is in charge of keeping these lamps burning in front of the curtain that screens The Testimony in the Tent of Meeting from evening to morning continually before Yahuah. This is a perpetual decree down through the generations. Aaron is responsible for keeping the lamps burning continually on the Lampstand of pure gold before Yahuah.

Leviticus 24:1-4 (MSG)

9 “They answered, ‘There might not be enough to go around; go buy your own.’

10 “They did, but while they were out buying oil, the bridegroom arrived. When everyone who was there to greet him had gone into the wedding feast, the door was locked.

Matthew 25:9-10 (MSG)

Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – Dreams Come True

Look up child and seek my dreams for this world.
Do you know that to Me, you are a dream come true? You are My wildest dream come to life.
It is My desire to place My dreams within you and release you into building my kingdom here.
My desire is to see dreams that keep giving. That, as I release new dreams within you, you would be inspired to move forward in building with Me.
What this looks like might surprise you. In fact, I know that it will not look like what you thought. Embrace the unexpected!
Ask Holy Spirit to show you dreams which reflect my desires for this world. Then, ask Holy Spirit to deposit within you the dreams I hold for you as your Father, dreams to see My kingdom built here.
Let’s partner in dreaming together!

Instead, we continually speak of this wonderful wisdom that comes from Yahuah, hidden before now in a mystery. It is His secret plan, destined before the ages, to bring us into glory. None of the rulers of this present world order understood it, for if they had, they never would have crucified the Lord of shining glory. This is why the Scriptures say:
Things never discovered or heard before, things beyond our ability to imagine – these are the many things Yahuah has in store for all His lovers.
But Yahuah now unveils these profound realities to us by the Spirit. Yes, He has revealed to us His inmost heart and deepest mysteries through the Holy Spirit, who constantly explores all things.

1 Corinthians 2:7-10 (TPT)

Since we are now joined to Christ, we have been given the treasures of redemption by His blood—the total cancellation of our sins—all because of the cascading riches of His grace. This superabundant grace is already powerfully working in us, releasing all forms of wisdom and practical understanding.

Ephesians 1:7-8 (TPT)

Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – Cross Over

The Israelites would have never experienced the wonders of the promised land unless they had consecrated themselves and made ready to cross over the Jordan to take possession of the land.

Is not My church stuck in a similar place? On the wrong side of the River Jordan, failing to enter and receive their inheritance?

Too many generations have died in the wilderness when they have stood on the cusp of entering into their promised inheritance without grasping it.

But now is the time to make yourselves ready; to hear the command to consecrate yourselves; to deal with the baggage that has gotten you stuck and unfulfilled. Now is the time to look up and see your inheritance; see that the path across the Jordan has opened up. By faith, step into your promised land and possess it for you and the following generations.

Activation: Ask the Lord where you have allowed yourself to become bogged down in the wilderness and to show you where your inheritance is ready to be claimed.

Future Glory for Jerusalem

1 “Sing, O childless woman, you who have never given birth! Break into loud and joyful song, O Jerusalem, you who have never been in labor. For the desolate woman now has more children than the woman who lives with her husband,” says the Lord.

2 “Enlarge your house; build an addition. Spread out your home, and spare no expense!

3 For you will soon be bursting at the seams. Your descendants will occupy other nations and resettle the ruined cities.

Isaiah 54:1-3 (NLT)

Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – Take Responsibility

Yesterday, you were challenged to “clear out” your thinking. Today, I challenge you to clear out the atmosphere around you.

While you cannot control everything in this world, you can shift the atmosphere around you. Take responsibility for the atmosphere around you. There is always a battle happening in the atmosphere as the darkness would try to blot out the light.

You get to shift your atmosphere with your words, your worship, and your attitude. Your choices influence your surroundings so I encourage you today to choose wisely. Don’t settle for the darkness for you carry the light!

Activation: Read Psalm 91 aloud paying attention to how the atmosphere around you shifts. Take some time to journal about what you experience doing this and how you can apply this principle to your daily life.

10 As the rain and the snow came down from heaven, and do not return to it without watering the earth and making it bud and flourish, so that it yields seed for the sower and bread for the eater,

11 so is my word that goes out from my mouth: it will not return to Me empty, but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it.

Isaiah 55:10-11 (NIV)
