Lion Bites- Global Prophetic Alliance – My Goodness

My goodness fills the earth. It flows from My heart to you. My goodness and mercy follow all the days of your life when you make Me, your Shepherd.
When I AM your Shepherd, you lack nothing. I teach you to walk in the path of My Name.
My goodness doesn’t allow you to live in passivity or darkness. My goodness is like the lightning bolt that strikes the hearts of the people deep and reveals those hidden secret places to you.

Ask for My goodness to fall on your life, your family, your workplace, over your nation, and wherever the soles of your feet tread upon.

Activation: Yah promised us that we do not lack anything, however, we must make The LORD our Shepherd. Ask Holy Spirit to show you whether you have allowed Yahusha to be your true Shepherd. Look for the meaning of the word SHEPHERD on various resources and study this word and apply it as mentioned above.

The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing.

Psalm 23:1 (NIV)

8 Yes, Yah is more than ready to overwhelm you with every form of grace, so that you will have more than enough of everything —every moment and in every way. He will make you overflow with abundance in every good thing you do.

9 Just as the Scriptures say about the one who trusts in Him: Because he has sown extravagantly and given to the poor, his kindness and generous deeds will never be forgotten.

2 Corinthians 9:8-9 (TPT)

Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – The Coming Season

FOCUS!

Don’t be alarmed with fear when you hear of wars, sickness, or famine. Did I not say that these things must happen? As challenges come into the days and months ahead, let your focus be on me and on me alone. Draw into me and into the quiet place so that I can comfort you, lead you, and guide you into this next season.

The stage is being set for a glorious return, but much is still to be done. There will always be an opportunity to fear, to faint, to give up, but I am reminding you to keep your focus off of the earthly distractions and onto me. When you do feel fear trying to creep in on your thoughts, day or night, draw away with me. Become one with me as I show you my peace. I will give you instruction on how to move through this season as you put your focus solely on Me.

Discernment is key!

Oneness with Me is key!

You will not be unsteady or shaken when you are prepared from within by spending time with Me. I will strengthen and prepare you with more and far better than any type of preparation you can do alone or by advice from others.

Let Me have this time with you.
Trust Me to care for you and know the plans I have for you are good. Allow me to be the centre of your thoughts, your actions, and your decisions.

Unity of the Spirit

3 Make every effort to keep the oneness of the Spirit in the bond of peace [each individual working together to make the whole successful].

4 There is one body [of believers] and one Spirit—just as you were called to one hope when called [to salvation]—

5 one Lord, one faith, one baptism,

one God and Father of us all who is [sovereign] over all and [working] through all and [living] in all.

Ephesians 4:3-6 (AMP)

For I know the plans and thoughts that I have for you,’ says the Lord, ‘plans for peace and well-being and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.

Jeremiah 29:11 (AMP)

I have told you these things, so that in Me you may have [perfect] peace. In the world you have tribulation and distress and suffering, but be courageous [be confident, be undaunted, be filled with joy]; I have overcome the world.” [My conquest is accomplished, My victory abiding.]

John 16:33 (AMP)

Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – Emmanuel

Oh, how we read that verse in Matthew 1:23 each year at this holiday season and gloss over it not fully understanding the power and might of Yah found in this passage.

20 But while he thought about these things, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, “Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take to you Mary your wife, for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit.

21 And she will bring forth a Son, and you shall call His name YAHUSHA, for He will save His people from their sins.”

22 So all this was done that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying:

23 “Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and bear a Son, and they shall call His name Immanuel, which is translated, ‘Yah with us.’”

Matthew 1:20-23 (NKJV)

Consider that the virgin birth was prophesied more than four hundred years before Mary gave birth to Yahusha. Consider the human cost of the suffering Yahusha endured upon the Cross at Calvary and consider the intervention of God himself to raise Yahusha up from the dead after three days in the tomb.
Selah and pause a moment and take that in.
Take in what it took to make the promise that Emmanuel – Yah with us – a reality.

And yet the thrice Holy God made it possible for us to proclaim that Yah is with us. The promise of Holy Spirit is for all who believe that Christ rose from the dead and it is this Holy Spirit that is Yah with us.

He lives in our hearts; He is intertwined with our spirit and we are one for all eternity. Oh, what a mystery that Yah would love us so much as to share himself with us and be with us always, oh what a glorious mystery, Emmanuel – Yah with us.

14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of Man be lifted up,

15 that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life.

16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.

16 For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.

John 3:14-17 (NKJV)

19 “A little while longer and the world will see Me no more, but you will see Me. Because I live, you will live also.

20 At that day you will know that I am in My Father, and you in Me, and I in you.

21 He who has My commandments and keeps them, it is he who loves Me. And he who loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I will love him and manifest Myself to him.”

John 14:19-21 (NKJV)

“But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you.”

John 14:26 (NKJV)

Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – Bonfire to Beacon

You cannot be a beacon without first being a bonfire.

Come and cast yourself onto My fire. Pour out all the things you try to hide from Me. Pour out what you try to hide from the world. Nothing can be hidden from Me, I already know and love you anyway. Pour out all that is in you and I will purify you in My fire.

Meet me in the hidden hours and let My Holy Spirit fill you. Meet Me one on one and tremble before Me in reverence. For as you spend time with Me, I will transform you from a bonfire into a beacon, setting you high to be a light. For you were made to be visible, serving as a sign which points to Me.  

Activation: Ask Yah how you can be more vulnerable with Him.

“Nor do people light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a stand, and it gives light to all in the house.”

Matthew 5:15 (ESV)

Tuesday Morning Scripture (Wk49/2022) – Matthew 5:13-20

Matthew 5:14 ‘You are the light of [Christ to] the world…….’

Disciples and the World

13 “You are the [1]salt of the earth; but if the salt has [2]lost its taste (purpose), how can it be made salty? It is no longer good for anything, but to be thrown out and walked on by people [when the walkways are wet and slippery].

14 “You are the light of [Christ to] the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden;

15 nor does anyone light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house.

16 Let your light shine before men in such a way that they may see your good deeds and moral excellence, and [recognize and honor and] glorify your Father who is in heaven.

17 “Do not think that I came to do away with or undo the [3]Law [of Moses] or the [writings of the] Prophets; I did not come to destroy but to fulfill.

18 For I assure you and most solemnly say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not the smallest letter or stroke[of the pen] will pass from the Law until all things [which it foreshadows] are accomplished.

19 So whoever breaks one of the least [important] of these commandments, and teaches others to do the same, will be called least [important] in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever practices and teaches them, he will be called great in the kingdom of heaven.

20 “For I say to you that unless your righteousness (uprightness, moral essence) is more than that of the scribes and Pharisees, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.

Matthew 5:13-20 (AMP)

Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – Refiner’s Fire

Do you wonder why you feel rejected? Is your mind racing to understand why you weren’t seen by others?

My beautiful bride, haven’t you read that man sees the outward appearance but I, your LORD, see your heart?
A heart that worships Me when no one is watching.
A heart that wants to obey Me no matter what it looks like.
A heart that wants to walk in purity.
A heart that wants to live in submission and surrender.

I kept you in hidden moments to develop your character because I chose you.
You are My best wine, processed and crushed through My hands for My purpose. Man chose the wine by seeing how it looks on the outside, assuming that is the best wine.

I keep the best wine until last as I propel them to the next level.
You gave Me, your YES.
I take you from glory to glory in reshaping you, redesigning you, and recalibrating you.
I cried out, “FATHER, Your will be done,” as I was being crushed in the winepress, and the oil was released from Me to pour in you and on you.
Do not be afraid of My fire!

Activation: Ask the Holy Spirit to show you what kind of season you are in. If you find that you are in a season of character formation, give thanks to the Lord for what He is doing in your life. Talk to Holy Spirit about where you are being developed and ask for strength to wait for His timing in the process.

But God told Samuel, “Looks aren’t everything. Don’t be impressed with his looks and stature. I’ve already eliminated him. God judges persons differently than humans do. Men and women look at the face; God looks into the heart.”

1 Samuel 16:7 (MSG)

7 He was oppressed, [yet when] He was afflicted, He was submissive and opened not His mouth; like a lamb that is led to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, so He opened not His mouth.

8 By oppression and judgement He was taken away; and as for His generation, who among them considered that He was cut off out of the land of the living [stricken to His death] for the transgression of my [Isaiah’s] people, to whom the stroke was due?

Isaiah 53:7-8 (AMPC)

Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – Fear

To Know God is to fear Him.

For ever since the world was created, people have seen the earth and sky. Through everything God made, they can clearly see His invisible qualities—His eternal power and divine nature. So they have no excuse for not knowing God.

Romans 1:20 (NIV)

It’s time for truth. What is your excuse for not praising Me in this way? I will not reject you for being honest with me about where your heart is. I can give you a new heart, just ask. I only want truth from your inner being. From truth between us, fear will grow. Not the kind of fear that sends you running to hide, but the kind that makes you fall into Me and give everything up for My name.

In the council of the holy ones God is greatly feared; He is more awesome than all who surround him.

Psalm 89:7 (NIV)

Creation does not need this council because I have woven this knowledge into the very fabric of it’s being. It cannot help but respond, it has no excuse to not praise Me because it reflects Me.

Sit in the council of the holy ones and you will learn the fear of the Lord. Your faith precedes My glory, so have faith as you look and expect to see Me all around. Creation looks and witnesses My glory and vibrates, even shakes with awe day and night. It does not, cannot rest from this posture of trembling. Creation responds to Me in purity. Submit yourself to My council and let us teach you about fear, awe, wonder, and glory.
Who is this council?

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

Isaiah 11:2 (NIV)

As the Israelites looked at the bronze snake in faith and were healed of the snake bites and as My son was raised on the cross so that all can look on Him in faith that He atoned for the transgression of man, all you need is faith to walk in fear. When you walk in fear you worship Me in My fullness. When you walk in fear you will see everything through the lens of expectation and wonder, and that is what it is to live by the Spirit, that is what it is to live in the fear of the Lord.

Activation: Today, ask to be counselled by My holy ones so you can walk in the fear of the Lord.

Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – Awe

“Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lord of hosts; The whole earth is full of His glory!”

Have you worshipped Me as My angels worship Me? Have you worshipped Me as creation worships Me? They see me on my throne and cry “Holy” they feel the ground shake and they fall on their face before Me.

1 In the year that King Uzziah died, I saw the Lord sitting on a throne, high and lifted up, and the train of His robe filled the temple. 

2 Above it stood seraphim; each one had six wings: with two he covered his face, with two he covered his feet, and with two he flew.

3 And one cried to another and said:

“Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of hosts;
The whole earth is full of His glory!”

4 And the posts of the door were shaken by the voice of him who cried out, and the house was filled with smoke.

Isaiah 6:1-4 (NKJV)

Activation: Ask Me to reveal to you My glory in every moment, connect with My heart, My emotion and My holiness and you will begin to walk in awe daily. Today allow My wonder and awe to grip you.

I am Yahweh Sabaoth, the Lord of hosts, God of angel armies. My very name declares My reign over heaven and earth and over all armies, earthly and spiritual. If My angel army praises Me with cries of “Holy holy holy” then you My earthly army are to praise Me in the same way.

My glory fills the temple followed by wide eyed awe. The kind of awe that is only imparted by the council of My spirit.
Have you ever felt awe? Have you ever quieted yourself in My presence long enough to let awe build in your spirit? Awe is an ever increasing unseen substance in the spirit that speaks of My glory and feeds your obedience and reverence. The longer you sit in awe of Me you will be shaken as the doorposts and cry holy with the angels. When you live in awe of Me you will see My glory everywhere.

The heavens declare the glory of Yah; the skies proclaim the work of His hands.

Psalm 19:1 (NIV)

Everyone was gripped with great wonder and awe, and they praised Yah, exclaiming, “We have seen amazing things today!”

Luke 5:26 (NIV)
