Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – The Power In The Name

My name is higher than all other names. My name is a name that causes the enemy to shake and tremble. It is a name that can heal the sick and raise the dead; in this name, you are saved, set free and delivered. You have known my name, used my name, and been aware of my name. At this time, however, I am calling you to draw close and know the possessor of the name. I am calling you into great intimacy with my Son, Jesus. To see Him in glory, to know his heart, emotions, and understand who He is in friendship, in relation, as well as in his power. Draw near to Him. Find Him and you will find that in the partnership of friendship you are able to do even more than you thought was possible.

I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master’s business. Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that I learned from my Father I have made known to you.

John 15:15 (NIV)

Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – History

I, the Lord, am worthy of all praise, glory, and adoration! Tell the generations about My greatness and acts of great power! Do not keep your stories and testimonies to yourself; they are meant to be shared and expounded upon! The name Yahweh is to be passed down through all generations, just as a tiered fountain pours water from one basin into the next. My story is woven throughout the tapestry of history, creating an extravagant love story that threads through the family trees of the world. It’s time to release what is burning deeply within your heart. Be strong and courageous to tell others about Me because there are many who are perishing who need to hear what you have to say. Do not be afraid to speak up with boldness, proclaiming the gospel message with demonstrations of love and power. Do not be muzzled again by fear but break free so you can proclaim who I am to the earth!

Activation: Repent for any partnership you’ve made with fear and silence. Renounce it and break it off of your life. Then ask the Lord to fill you back up with perfect love and boldness so you can start speaking up!

Great is the LORD and most worthy of praise; his greatness no one can fathom. One generation commends your works to another; they tell of your mighty acts.

Psalm 145:3-4 (NIV)

Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – Joy Is Your Strength

It’s OK to laugh! Amid very intense times on the earth, it’s important to remember that My joy is your strength! My laughter shifts atmospheres and releases victory into nations. The enemy would like to bring a cloak of heaviness over the world to shroud it in depression, deception, and darkness. But heavenly laughter will break the yoke of despair and replace it with holy garments of praise.
Begin to sing in the Spirit with songs of hope and deliverance, for My brilliant light will soon pierce the darkness and sweep away the mourning that has laid heavily upon My people.
Lift your hands high and dance with jubilant triumph! Praise Me during your struggles, and when the darkness seems tangible, raise your voice! For you will be strengthened and uplifted to a heavenly place where you will crush the enemy underfoot, going out in complete victory!

Activation: The Lord directs us to worship when we feel heavily burdened. It’s time to turn on the worship and get up and dance, sing, clap, laugh, and smile! Shift the atmosphere into a place of supernatural joy and strength!

This day is holy to our Lord. Do not grieve, for the joy of the LORD is your strength.

Nehemiah 8:10b (NLT

To all who mourn in Israel, he will give a crown of beauty for ashes, a joyous blessing instead of mourning, festive praise instead of despair. In their righteousness, they will be like great oaks that the LORD has planted for his own glory.

Isaiah 61:3 (NLT)

Monday Morning Scripture (Wk15/2022) – Nehemiah 8:1-12

Ezra Reads the Law

Then all the people gathered together as one man at the open square in front of the Water Gate; and they asked Ezra the scribe to bring the Book of the Law of Moses which the Lord had given to Israel.

2 So Ezra the priest brought the Law before the assembly of men, women and all who could listen with understanding, on the first day of the seventh month.

3 Then he read from it, in front of the open square which was in front of the Water Gate, from [1]early morning until midday, in the presence of the men and women, those who could understand; and [2]all the people listened carefully to the Book of the Law.

4 Ezra the scribe stood on a [large] wooden platform which they had constructed for this purpose. And beside him [on the platform] stood Mattithiah, Shema, Anaiah, Uriah, Hilkiah, and Maaseiah on his right; and Pedaiah, Mishael, Malchijah, Hashum, Hashbaddanah, Zechariah, and Meshullam on his left.

5 Ezra opened the book in the sight of all the people, for he was standing above them; and when he opened it, all the people stood up.

6 Then Ezra blessed the Lord, the great God. And all the people answered, “Amen, Amen!” while lifting up their hands; and they knelt down and worshiped the Lord with their faces toward the ground.

7 Also Jeshua, Bani, Sherebiah, Jamin, Akkub, Shabbethai, Hodiah, Maaseiah, Kelita, Azariah, Jozabad, Hanan, Pelaiah, and the Levites, explained the Law to the people, and the people remained in their places.

8 So they read from the Book of the Law of God, translating and explaining it so that the people understood the reading.

“This Day Is Holy”

9 Then Nehemiah, who was the governor, and Ezra the priest and scribe, and the Levites who taught the people said to all the people, “This day is holy to the Lord your God; do not mourn or weep.” For all the people were weeping when they heard the words of the Law.

10 Then Ezra said to them, “Go [your way], eat the rich festival food, drink the sweet drink, and send portions to him for whom nothing is prepared; for this day is holy to our Lord. And do not be worried, for the joy of the Lord is your strength and your stronghold.”

11 So the Levites quieted all the people, saying, “Be still, for the day is holy; do not be worried.”

12 Then all the people went on their way to eat, to drink, to send portions [of food to others] and to celebrate a great festival, because they understood the words which had been [3]communicated to them.

Nehemiah 8:1-12 (AMP)

Lion bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – Rest In My Presence

Take a moment to be still and rest in My presence. Breathe deeply and allow My peace to consume your heart. This is a whirlwind season where the enemy wants to shift your focus off what is important, attempting to distract you from reaching your goals. He will try to throw a million little things your way that will have you reaching, grabbing, and striving for some sense of order amidst the chaos. But if you will take the time to set aside the many interruptions of your day and sit in silence before Me, I will act as a shield to deflect the intense number of tasks coming your way. The enemy would like to pull you back into a hectic, stressful schedule like you had prior to Covid, but I am inviting you into the rhythms of My rest and grace. Step away from Chronos time (the world’s chronological order of time) into My Kairos moment (the right or opportune moment). In this place of stillness your soul will find rest, helping you walk in the proper timings of Heaven.

Be still, and know that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth!

Psalm 46:10 (ESV)

Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.

Matthew 11:28-29 (NIV)

Good Friday Morning Prayer (Wk14/2022)

20 Now may the God of peace [Who is the Author and the Giver of peace], Who brought again from among the dead our Lord Jesus, that great Shepherd of the sheep, by the blood [that sealed, ratified] the everlasting agreement (covenant, testament),

21 Strengthen (complete, perfect) and make you what you ought to be and equip you with everything good that you may carry out His will; [while He Himself] works in you and accomplishes that which is pleasing in His sight, through Jesus Christ (the Messiah); to Whom be the glory forever and ever (to the ages of the ages).

Amen (So be it)

Friday Morning Scripture (Wk14/2022) – Psalm 149

Israel Invoked to Praise the Lord

1 Praise the Lord! Sing to the Lord a new song, and praise Him in the congregation of His godly ones (believers).

2 Let Israel rejoice in their Maker; let Zion’s children rejoice in their King.

3 Let them praise His name with dancing; let them sing praises to Him with the tambourine and lyre.

4 For the Lord takes pleasure in His people; He will beautify the humble with salvation.

5 Let the godly ones exult in glory; let them sing for joy on their beds.

6 Let the high praises of God be in their throats, and a two-edged sword in their hands,

7 To execute vengeance on the nations and punishment on the peoples,

8 To bind their kings with chains and their nobles with fetters of iron,

9 To execute on them the judgment written. This is the honor for all His godly ones.

Praise the Lord! (Hallelujah!)

Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – New Sounds

I am releasing new sounds, new language, and key connectors in the Spirit to merge the praise of your lips and the worship of your heart with the sounds of heaven. As your praise ascends to My throne, it unlocks and brings release and breakthrough in various situations in your life.

Expect to see miracles released! Expect to see signs and wonders break forth among you in corporate gatherings. My arm is not so short that it cannot save. I am standing here with you. Look in the spirit and see Heaven’s armies positioned around you.

Allow yourself to be caught up in the praise and adoration of My Son and release that fresh flow in praise and worship, singing in the spirit unto the praise of My name. I will enable you to rise higher in praise and I will pour in the language of heaven.

Be still (be at peace/ Shalom!) and look to Me; I am your God and I will be exalted among you.

Activation: Ask the Lord for a fresh infilling of the Holy Spirit and begin to release your praise to Him, singing known songs of praise and your own spontaneous new songs of praise, in your own language and in tongues. If you have not already been filled with the Holy Spirit and would like to be, ask the Lord to fill you with the Holy Spirit and ask Him for the gift of tongues.

Praise the Lord! Sing to the Lord a new song, and His praise in the assembly of saints.

Psalm 149:1 (NKJV)

… Instead, be filled with the Spirit. Speak to one another with psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs. Sing and make music in your hearts to the Lord…

Let the high praises of God be in their mouth, and a two-edged sword in their hand…
