Luke 4:16-21 There is a link between your faith, imagination and prophecy. Your imagination is a powerful gift given to you by God and there is a way you are meant to use it. Your measure of faith was given to you by God, you are meant to nurture it, grow it and contend for it. Romans 12:3 Your prophecy is a revelation and insight to you about your future, God's plan and perspective concerning you. 1 Timothy 4:14 When you are given a true and good prophecy, you are meant to capture it with your imagination. Your imagination is an ability given to you by God that plays out your thoughts, dreams and fantasies. Your imagination can play out what can be and what you can achieve. Your imagination works like a projector, the Holy Spirit can use it to show you things to come. John 16:13 Visions and dreams are part of the language of the Holy Spirit and your imagination falls into this category. Acts 2:17,18 A good and developed imagination helps to develop your understanding of God's...

 Matthew 2: 1-12 Magi (wise men) from the east followed the Star of Jesus and the Star successfully led them to where young Jesus was in Bethlehem. To follow the Star of Jesus Christ is to follow Jesus Christ for Jesus is that Star! It is a revelation and mystery! There are lessons we can learn from the wise men from the east. We should be wise. Why are they called wise? Wisdom is the principal thing. Proverbs 4:7 God wants you wise and He's ready to supply an abundance of it to you. James 1:5 When you ponder on the actions of these wise men who followed the Star of the Messiah, we can glean valuable insight on how we can be wise too. Through them, we see what it means to be wise even in our day. 1. The wise men followed Jesus because of who He is - the King . Matthew 2: 2 They didn't follow Jesus because they wanted a miracle or needed a testimony. The followed Jesus (the Star) because they discovered who He is. Their following Him was not motivated by personal benefit or a hi...

  Isaiah 60:1-5 God wants His people, His children to shine. It is your destiny to shine! God is big, bright and beautiful. I Chronicles 29:11 The presence of God is bright, the angelic servants of God are bright, and His kingdom is bright. The word of God is bright. The Lord is glorious, He is the morning Star who dawns in our heart. 2 Peter 1:19 In Christ we become light and we are translated into a kingdom of light. Colossians 1:13 1 Peter 2:9 Light shines, it is bright. Light is more visible in the darkness.. Light shines brightest when its dark.

  Numbers 10:35 Our God is a God of action. He is a living, productive, creative and powerful Spirit. He is no idol or carved image, He is the Creator not a creation. It's a powerful and wonderful thing when God arises on behalf of a life, family, and destiny. When God rises, enemies scatter. Psalm 68:1 When God arises upon a life and destiny, the glory of God will be seen upon that life and destiny. Isaiah 60:2 God commands His children to "arise and shine" because it's what He does. God arises and He shines. When He arises and shines upon a life and destiny, the fortunes of the individual in question changes for the better.

 Jeremiah 33 vs 7 God is a restorer. He restores that which was stolen whether they are opportunities, years, youthfulness, virtues, health or stars. We can be restored spiritually and physically. Restoration should be part of your life story, it is part of God's script for you. Zechariah 9:12 Restoration has been factored into the story of your life because God hates waste and if you are not restored your life or parts of it will be wasted. John 6:12 Restoration is evidence of the presence of God's kingdom in a life. Those in God's kingdom are entitled to restoration, restoration is what God wants for humanity. When Jesus visited the home of Zacchaeus the tax collector, Zacchaeus promised to restore four fold  what he had taken from everyone unjustly. The presence of Jesus in his home compelled Zacchaeus to restore those who he had taken from unjustly.  Then Jesus replied "today salvation has come to this house because he (Zacchaeus) is also a son of Abraham, for the ...

  Mark 5:27-34 There are times we need immediate miracles. There are times we need instant miracles because of the urgency of the situation we find ourselves in. Human beings can find themselves requiring an instant miracle because we are people who live in time.  A lot of things concerning us are time dependent. Our lives, our destiny, and opportunities are all wrapped in time. A miracle occurs when God intervenes in a life or situation to fix what is beyond man to do. When you need God to do for you what you can't do for yourself and what people can't do for you; you need a miracle! When you need the miracle to happen within a time frame and your situation shows you will be in trouble if it doesn't happen in that time frame, you need an instant miracle! The beauty of such situations is that God loves to glorify Himself in circumstances like that. In the scriptures we see examples of people who needed an urgent miracle, and they got it! You can get your instant, urgent mir...

Hebrews 1:14 God would have you work with the angel(s) he has assigned to your life. It is what He expects of you if you are in Christ Jesus. Be sensitive to the Spirit realm, there is an angel beside you, even angels. This is not strange. While it is alright to be cautious as ministers of the gospel, I have a responsibility to teach people about the dynamics of the spiritual realm. In my doing so, spiritual things become real to people and they learn and know what is available in the spirit realm to them and how to apply them. We have to present the things of the spirit to the world in such a way that its not only truthful, relatable and believable, we have to let them know how spiritual things work. Many Christians have found themselves stuck due to a lack of knowledge of what they should know. These are facts about the believer and their guardian angel: i) You and your guardian angel are from the same source- the Father of all Spirits. ii) You and your guardian angel are from the sa...
