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)

Hebrews 13:20-21 (AMPC)

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!)

Psalm 149:1-9 (AMP)

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…

Ephesians 5:18-19 (BSB)

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

Psalm 149:6 (NKJV)

Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – Be Strong

Do not throw away your confidence. Don’t return to old battles that you have already won in your life, for such are the hindrances blocking my work in your families, communities and larger regions.

Think of those matters you replay in your mind which I have instructed you to leave at the foot of Jesus’ cross. Let go of previous successes as well as what you see as failures. I am new every morning.

I have great things for you to mature into, and the message given to Joshua to drive out the enemies before Israel, also applies to you. Be strong in your hearts and minds to crucify those things that you know hold you back.

Be in my timing for your life through obedience. I never go backwards.

Do not be fooled, my people, when the ‘thorns in your side’ keep hurting. Recognise old battles and once and forever put them behind you.

Application: Ask God where he wants you to change the repeat message in your heart and mind of the past. Seek His healing for the things affecting these memories. Do not leave it there, instead, ask Him for a strategy to grow into maturity

“But if you do not drive out the inhabitants of the land, those you allow to remain will become barbs in your eyes and thorns in your side. They will give you trouble in the land where you live.”

Numbers 33:55 (NIVUK)

“So do not throw away your confidence; it will be richly rewarded.”

Hebrews 10:35 (NIVUK)

Lion Bites – Global Prophetic Alliance – Heart Condition

The Lord asks, “Do you have a heart condition? Give me an honest appraisal. What is the state of your heart? You must guard your heart. Your future depends on it.

Become skilled in noticing how you respond to things and how I respond to similar things. We are not the same.

I am your teacher and it is I who will show you how to be pure in heart. I build steadfastness and security in you, deep inside, so you only have the fear of me and not the fear of bad news. I monitor the hearts of all and know all. Don’t hide any longer from my Spirit. Face me, heart to heart, and let me take each heartache that troubles you; I am the only true healer.

Come, rest a while, and ask me where your heart needs reconditioning and strengthening.”

‘Guard your heart above all else, for it determines the course of your life.’

Proverbs 4:23 (NLT)

‘They will have no fear of bad news; their hearts are steadfast, trusting in the Lord. Their hearts are secure, they will have no fears; in the end they will look in triumph on their foes.’

Psalms 112:7-8 (NIVUK)

Wednesday Morning Scripture (Wk14/2022) – Psalm 112

Prosperity of the One Who Fears The LORD

1 Praise the Lord! (Hallelujah!) Blessed [fortunate, prosperous, and favored by God] is the man who fears the Lord [with awe-inspired reverence and worships Him with obedience], who delights greatly in His commandments.

2 His descendants will be mighty on earth; the generation of the upright will be blessed.

3 Wealth and riches are in his house, and his righteousness endures forever.

4 Light arises in the darkness for the upright; He is gracious and compassionate and righteous (upright—in right standing with God).

5 It is well with the man who is gracious and lends; he conducts his affairs with justice.

6 He will never be shaken; the righteous will be remembered forever.

7 He will not fear bad news; his heart is steadfast, trusting [confidently relying on and believing] in the Lord.

8 His heart is upheld, he will not fear while he looks [with satisfaction] on his adversaries.

9 He has given freely to the poor; his righteousness endures forever; his horn will be exalted in honor.

10 The wicked will see it and be angered, he will gnash his teeth and melt away [in despair and death]; the desire of the wicked will perish and come to nothing.

Psalm 112:1-10 (AMP)
