Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – Living For Who?

I see you and I honour you in your journey of life with me. I love your enlarging capacity to face your difficulties and I rejoice at your humble devotion to me.

Now I challenge you to put aside even more of yourself, laying down your selfishness in a way that demonstrates how bored you are with living for yourself. For I am bored with how much unnecessary time you lavish on you and yours and how you protect space for you, without inviting me, YAHWH, into that space. Leave behind the hours of only planning and thinking of you.

I bought your life at my Son’s expense, for your value is immeasurable to me. So, my church, bring your fullness of heart to me for the sake of others, as Christ did for you.

Activation: Ask Holy Spirit, ‘Where are you provoking today?’ Is it to rely less on yourself, your intellect? Have you yet come to the end of yourself? Choose this day how you will live. Do not run past His challenge. Trust in Him and He will act.

Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves.

Philippians 2:3 (NIVUK)

In fact, the mind-set focused on the flesh fights God’s plan and refuses to submit to his direction, because it cannot!

Romans 8:7 (TPT)

Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – Re-invigorate and Strengthen

I am your joy and your hope! I am with you and I am for you. I watch over you and I am a passionate and zealous God, not willing for anyone to perish. As you walk with Me and as you look to Me, as you place your hope in Me and look in expectancy to Me, you will not be disappointed. You have cried out in My presence, “Lord, when will it come? When will your promise come?”

Yet, I am calling you to re-invigorate. Strengthen yourself in Me, in My love for you. Strengthen yourself in walking with Me in your daily choices and decisions. Strengthen your brothers and sisters in Christ and see to it that no one falters. Know My heart, the heart of a protective Father. I will lead you in paths of righteousness for My Name’s sake. Your hope in Me will not be cut off.

11 No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful. Later on, however, it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace for those who have been trained by it.

12 Therefore, strengthen your feeble arms and weak knees.

13 “Make level paths for your feet,”[a] so that the lame may not be disabled, but rather healed.

Hebrews 12:11-13 (NIV)

13 [What, what would have become of me] had I not believed that I would see the Lord’s goodness in the land of the living!

14 Wait and hope for and expect the Lord; be brave and of good courage and let your heart be stout and enduring. Yes, wait for and hope for and expect the Lord.

Psalm 27:13-14 (AMPC)

For surely there is a latter end [a future and a reward], and your hope and expectation shall not be cut off.

Proverbs 23:18 (AMPC)

Lion bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – Release!

Elijah went before the people and said, “How long will you waver between two opinions? If the Lord is God, follow him; but if Baal is God, follow him.”

1 Kings 18:21 (NIV)

Some of you have been walking a tightrope; you have been walking a thin line. You have been caught between two minds; between the will of the Lord, and considering the questions posed to you by the enemy of your soul, who has been playing on desires that have been, as yet, unfulfilled in your life.

But the Spirit of the Lord says to you, “Release those desires to Me; bring them again to Me. Submit your will to Mine. It is in your surrender, where you allow Me to have My way, that a great release will come. A release from the storehouse of heaven, of My bountiful supply, where I long to fulfil your desires because you have first placed your hope in Me.

I am the One who holds your destiny. I am the One who holds the Key of David, who opens and no-one will shut and who shuts and no-one shall open. You are at a juncture, a door of decision. Will you follow Me?”

“If you love me, keep my commands…”

John 14:15 (NIV)

“…yet not my will, but yours be done.”

Luke 22:42 (NIV)

Delight yourself in the Lord, And He will give you the desires and petitions of your heart.

Psalm 37:4 (AMP)

Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – Don’t Look Back

For some time you have felt static, waiting, preparing. Now is the time to ask me for your next step. Each step may not make sense to man, but as I position my people, you need to trust me, and get your shoes on. It’s time to get up, shake the dust off your feet, and get moving.

What once was, will never be again. How things were, have gone forever. Close the door on those days and ways. Set your face like flint into forward gear, and don’t look back.

So Elisha left him and went back. He took his yoke of oxen and slaughtered them. He burned the ploughing equipment to cook the meat and gave it to the people, and they ate. Then he set out to follow Elijah and became his servant.

1 Kings 19:21 (NIV)

32 Remember Lot’s wife!

33 Whoever tries to keep their life will lose it, and whoever loses their life will preserve it.

Luke 17:32-33 (NIV)

Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – Be Whole

It is time to bring me the fragments, even the forgotten pieces of yourself. Your past; your sins; your mistakes; your wounds. Lay them all before me and watch what I do.

You can’t fix yourself but I can transform everything in just one breath.

Let me put you back together in the best possible way. It’s my nature to make all things new and to bring beauty from ashes. Now, I need you well. I need you whole.

Activation: Change the tenses in the verses below to apply it directly to yourself. Speak it aloud as a decree daily.

May God himself, the God who makes everything holy and whole, make you holy and whole, put you together—spirit, soul, and body—and keep you fit for the coming of our Master, Jesus Christ. The One who called you is completely dependable. If he said it, he’ll do it!

1 Thessalonians 5:23-24 (MSG)

Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – I Tell You Who You Are

Don’t look to a screen to shape your expectations of yourself. Neither should you line yourself up against the person next to you for comparison.

Come to Me. I alone will tell you who you are, for you are built in Me and by Me.

You are My likeness. My beloved.

I know all your innermost thoughts so there is nothing to hide from Me. Instead, run towards Me with your heart open and ask Me to fill it with truth. Let Me shape your identity, blowing away the lies you have believed about yourself.

Let My voice unlock you to be who I made you to be.

Activation: Ask God to identify any lies that you have believed about yourself. Hand them to Him in prayer, repent for believing them, and ask Him to exchange the lies for truth and to give you a word that He relates specifically to your unique identity. Speak this word over yourself daily.

Don’t you know that you yourselves are YAH’s temple and that YAH’s Spirit dwells in your midst?

1 Corinthians 3:16 (NIV)

On that day you will realise that I Am in My Father, and you are in Me, and I Am in you.

John 14:20 (NIV)

Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – Prepare To Harvest

In My hand I carry a sickle made of pure gold, refined in the fire of My glory. It has been tested, tried, and found worthy for use in the Kingdom of God. I have removed every kind of impurity that would make it brittle or weak so that it does not break during times of intense pressure. The harvest season is long and laborious, so I have ensured that this tool will serve Me reliably as I thresh the fields.

This sickle represents My church and I have sharpened her for the task ahead. She has been well prepared for the coming season, and I can rely on her to work smoothly with My Spirit. It is time to see a great harvest of souls come into the Kingdom of God. It is time to swing My bride as a sharp threshing sledge over the ripe fields of the nations!

Prayer: Jesus, here I am, send me where you need me. Show me how I can co-labor with you to see the full harvest come in!

Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest is plentiful, but the labourers are few; therefore pray earnestly to the Lord of the harvest to send out labourers into his harvest.”

Matthew 9:37-38 (ESV)

“See, I will make you into a threshing sledge, new and sharp, with many teeth. You will thresh the mountains and crush them, and reduce the hills to chaff.”

Isaiah 41:15 (NIV)

Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – Increase Your Vision

Watchmen on the walls, prepare yourself for a greater dimension of seeing! I will sharpen your spiritual sight and fine tune your discernment. Dreams will increase as I visit you in the night watches, covertly downloading strategies to thwart the enemy’s plans. As Elisha spied on the King of Aram in the Spirit, so you will be keenly aware of the enemy’s tactics, seeing into secret conversations held behind closed doors. You will engage in Holy Spirit espionage, uncovering the schemes of the devil so you can build your defences and prepare against the attacks. I will remove the dimness clouding your vision so that your intercession will hit the target with pin-point accuracy. I am giving you the eyes of an eagle to see far and wide so that the plans of the enemy will be thwarted at every turn.

Prayer: Jesus, I repent for any deception I have believed that has clouded my vision. Please remove the blinders so that I would see with great clarity, accurately perceiving the tactics of the enemy so they can be avoided!

“None of us, my lord the king,” said one of his officers, “but Elisha, the prophet who is in Israel, tells the king of Israel the very words you speak in your bedroom.”

2 Kings 6:12 (NIV)

On your walls, O Jerusalem, I have set watchmen; all the day and all the night they shall never be silent.

Isaiah 62:6 (ESV)

Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – Step Out Of Egypt

As the Israelites stood on the shores of the Red Sea, they had a choice to make. Would they trust that I was who I said I was, or would they focus their attention on the Egyptian army descending upon them, and turn back?

Today, you are likewise presented with that choice. Will you go along with how the world does things? Will you believe the enemy’s lies which fill you with fear and doubt? Or, will you trust in Me, believing that I am who I say I am, and step out with Me?

I know that this is easier said than done, but did I not provide for the Israelites every need? Did I not demonstrate my faithfulness at every turn? The same God who freed the captives, split the Red Sea, and rained Manna from above stands before you today. I invite you to step out with me today.

Activation: Repent and break all partnership with doubt and any lies of the enemy that would hold you back from embracing God in all His fullness. Step forward as you do this to symbolise your willingness to place your trust fully in Him.

Moses answered the people, “Don’t be afraid. Stand firm and you will see the deliverance the Lord will bring you today. The Egyptians you see today you will never see again. The Lord will fight for you; you need only to be still.”

Exodus 14:13-14 (NIV)

If you say, “The Lord is my refuge,” and you make the Most High your dwelling, no harm will overtake you, no disaster will come near your tent. For he will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways.

Psalm 91:9-11 (NIV)

Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – Build My Kingdom Here

Time. Money. Blueprints.
Timber. Nails. Cement.

A host of supplies are needed before work can begin on any new building project. I am in the details; I am in the plans and in the construction. I need my people to put on their hard hats and prepare themselves – each and everyday – to be my hands and feet. Will you partner with me – laying your own agendas aside – in building My kingdom here? On Earth as it is in Heaven?

For those who are ready, stretch your hands high and receive the builders’ anointing. What this looks like for each of you is different, for you each have your own unique role in my limitless kingdom.
This is a time of joy and fulfilment. Each new day is an opportunity to draw close to me in this pursuit. Will you join me in setting the world alight with My glory?

Activation: To build with God, we need to have healthy and firm foundations. Do business with God today to ensure your foundations are solid.

Look at your foundations in the Spirit. Ask God to show you any cracks or things that shouldn’t be there. Is there anything you need to let go of? Spend whatever time is needed to ensure your foundations are firm in Him.

We are coworkers with God and you are God’s cultivated garden, the house he is building.

1 Corinthians 3:9 (TPT)

As you come to him, the living Stone – rejected by humans but chosen by God and precious to him – you also, like living stones, are being built into a spiritual house to be a holy priesthood, offering spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.

1 Peter 2:4-6 (NIV)
