As preparation has started for the building work of houses to commence on land near to my home, it got me thinking about a prophecy I received years ago, that used the analogy of a house being renovated, in connection with the restoration work the Lord was doing within me. This is how it started….

“As I prayed for you, the Lord showed me a picture of a house from which emerged at regular intervals a succession of workmen- electricians, plumbers, joiners, painters, builders, carpet fitters, interior designers etc. All had clearly been working hard on renovating the house and their combined efforts resulted in a wonderful creation that was totally unrecognisable from its former run-down and dilapidated state. The outside appearance had not changed much and hence hid the transformation that lay within. There had been a lot of necessary destruction and clearing out before the restoration could begin but the upheaval and pain had been well worth the effort.

Your life resembles that house…..”

Now, I know that the work of the Lord is ongoing, as it is with us all, but when I looked back at the point of time that that was given, I could myself, see and feel the difference of the inner healing and deliverance I had gone through. Yes, the Lord did have to deliver me from the effects of life experiences that had brought trauma as a starter. Thankfully, being shown that the demonic oppression could be delivered from me – that I could be set free, was the start of the renovating within me. So over time the Lord has set me free from the works of the enemy, because even from being a child, circumstances had allowed roots to start and develop. You see, inner healing is not trying to change the past, but to change the response to the past and heal pain. Holy Spirit can show where the roots have started. Praise God for the transformation that has brought radical change to my life. Another statement in that prophecy was  “The transformation will amaze those who thought they knew you well.”

Why do I share this with you? I felt the Lord wanted me to, so that others can realise that God can help with every aspect of their lives. He can tear down strongholds that have been there years and bring freedom.

One huge thing the Lord has shown me, is the importance to forgive people straight away when things happen, then release them to Him and bless those concerned ! Then you are not holding unforgiveness because that is an open door for the enemy to get in. The Word tells us we must forgive.( Here are just a few : Matthew 6:14-15 Colossians 3:13 Matthew 18:21-22).

Forgiveness is not only about others, but also about our spiritual growth. Love and forgiveness cannot be separated. If we choose to live out the love of God as the purpose of our life, then forgiving is an option that cannot be avoided.

As the prophecy ended  “ Remember you are in the hands of the master builder whose plans are perfect….”

With our co-operation He can bring amazing transformation. Thank you Jesus.

Mark 16:17  “ And these signs will accompany those who believe: In my name they will drive out demons”.

2 Corinthians 3:17  “Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom”.

My daughter decided to surprise me for my birthday in December, with a visit to see Michael Buble in concert. As we sat and watched the crowds fill the arena, I felt Holy Spirit remind me that soon, we would see such buildings and stadiums filled with people eager to experience God…oh how this excites me! Incidentally, Michael Buble has stated that he dreamed of becoming a famous singer since the age of two and when he was a teenager, he slept with his Bible and prayed to become a singer! When Michael began to sing the song “Feeling Good”, the lyrics really began to open up to me, through Holy Spirit, what God was going to do for me and the Body of Christ, because you see, it really is going to be a new day – a new life ! As he sang and repeated the chorus I was just so overcome by the Holy Spirit with expectancy and excitement! For days later, that was what I was singing !
It’s a new dawn
It’s a new day
It’s a new life
For me
And I’m feeling good

Then the Lord gave me this word for 2015 concerning the dawning of a new day:

I am breaking up the old that has been stagnant and displacing it, so that the new and vibrant feel of my Spirit will enable quantitative growth that has never been experienced and seen as yet ! I will not only bring the balance that you need in the areas and circumstances of your life, but I will tip the scales over with the fullness of my Spirit, that will launch you forward with vigour and expectancy ! Manual labour will be replaced with the new supernatural tools that will change the essence of time and structure of ” how it was” to “how it now is” because you will be reaching and receiving from heights that surely will change the landscape and enlarge your territory. Being sober (that is dry, serious, dull, controlled and unexcited), will be replaced by the fullness of my Spirit, so you will drink, drink, drink, of me and experience the turnaround so that the opposite is felt in the dimensions of who I am in you ! This will be a year of me stretching you so supernaturally, that you will move forward with great acceleration that will be accompanied with joy, love,  zeal,  favour and awe! You will be lit up for my Glory, lit up so that you make a way for the people. The light will expand through the darkness and draw people to my great love that will indeed change concepts and expand the knowledge of who I really am! As you call, I will answer !

Jeremiah 29:11-13     Isaiah 43: 18-19    Habakkuk  1: 5

As I watch two doves sitting side by side on a branch of a tree just outside my garden, I am aware of how loyal and devoted they are to each other. What a token of devotion seen by onlookers! I’ll never forget the day I was in prayer and asking God for confirmation over a particular issue…when suddenly I had a dove tapping on my patio door!! Yes, just tapping with his beak – what a moment that was! A totally unexpected confirmation that blew me away!I just love it when God gives me surprises! He is certainly in the business of doing things ” outside of the box!”
The dove of course symbolises Holy Spirit and as we read from Matthew 3 v 16, As soon as Jesus was baptised, he went up out of the water. At that moment heaven was opened, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and lighting on him. And a voice from heaven said, “This is my Son, whom I love, with him I am well pleased.”
The devotion of the Father communicated and heard. The devotion of the Son birthed and expressed for ever more. The devotion of Holy Spirit beautifully wrapped and presented for our receiving! Such devotion! Let us truly rejoice at the devotion God has for us, each and every moment of our lives!
Lord I pray that this Christmas, your truth will be opened up for many, in totally unexpected ways ! Amen.

As we have altered our clocks (here in the UK) and look to the signs of a coming new season, it made me think about the seasons we go through individually in our personal journey with the Lord.

Reflecting on my individual seasons, I can see that God has had His perfect timing for the changing of each. Within some seasons years ago, I felt like things were not “moving forward” as quickly as I wanted, but once through that particular season, I could understand that God had indeed had great wisdom in using situations and circumstances to bring the necessary changes to me as a person – changes affecting my heart and walk, that would enable the next season to be more productive for Him. I was then able to totally ” let go and let God” regarding the timing of everything within my life. As much as I had an excitement for what He was going to do next, I was able to rest and enjoy the NOW of what God was doing (because even with difficult circumstances I have God’s peace, that passes all understanding- Philip’4 v 7 ).I have been able to fully trust God for everything needed for my life.

One very important aspect of my journey has been to really experience the deep love of the Father , a growing awareness of a love that will never let me down and the love that enables me because I am complete because of Him – truly supernatural ! From John 17 v 23 (Amplified Bible) I am told that my heavenly Father loves me as much as He loves Jesus ! Ephes’ 3 v 13-21 tells me that God desires to love me abundantly above all I could ever ask or think ! Such love !

Hunger and the presence of God brings change – when we have that – God does the rest ! Hallelujah !

The Lord certainly had me stepping out of the boat last week ! An invitation to Ireland came after a wonderful connection with a lady called Anne earlier in the year.

I felt the push of the Holy Spirit to venture forth and offer Ministry to those in need. As long as I did my part, God would do the rest !

On arrival I was greeted by a warm sunny land and wonderful friends whose aim was to mightily bless me for coming to them! Thank you once more for your hearts of love that accomplished great blessings !

It was a busy weekend with lots of Ministry to great people who made me feel very welcome and it was a joy – a great joy, to be able to give out what God had deposited in me .(2 Corinth’ 4 v 7…But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God and not of us).

Between appointments, I was shown what a beautiful land it is (with the sun still shining) and I could feel in my spirit the depth of what God wanted to do in this land-such is His love for the people here ( and around the world ). The corporate word He gave me was this :

Get ready, because I am about to lift the lid – about to lift the lid and it will be LIFT OFF for you ! I am about to release the unexpected, the NEW and as it is released expect to see the steam of my anointing because it is POWER as never seen before ! Such is the power that will be released, you will see it come in parts- it is too much to come all at once- I will bring first a small portion then a much larger portion before finally giving the ALL !

My people will display so much fruit that it will most certainly be a very outward show of the produce of the Spirit and attributes of the heart-the people will be filled to bursting that will never cease !

There will also be many signs in the sky that will make many point and stare- pointers of my Glory manifesting over and on the earth !

I will do something so awesome with the children, because they will be carrying through the generations and it will be something not done before , such is the NEW to be revealed !

My prophets will rise up and their wings will cover the earth and bring forth intimacy and revelation to the people- the prophets will be magnified like never before- the earth will be covered with my voice and people will seek the prophets like never before !

I will awaken the dead in every sphere of life and inject “who I am” to revolutionize life as you presently know and bring the personification of the great “I am!” It will be a raw move of the Spirit that will change the very core of people that will WAKE THEM UP TO WHO I AM AND THEY WILL KNOW ME, KNOW ME AND THIS WILL TURN THE HEARTS OF THE FATHERS TO THE CHILDREN AND THE HEART OF THE CHILDREN TO THEIR FATHERS (Malachi4:6). BEHOLD I WILL DO A NEW THING!

Amen.

It all changed, when my personal circumstances altered drastically and I looked to God for help.

Since being a child, I had gone to church, believed in God, but still felt ‘at a distance’ from God. Nobody had ever said that if I had been the only person on earth, Jesus died for me, that He could be my personal Saviour ! Yes, I realised that Jesus died for OUR sins, but knowing Jesus in a personal way and having the Holy Spirit, to be ‘born again’ (John3:3) had never been shown ‘in church’, that I had known. So when I called out to God for help, He made a way of showing me how much more there is in Him and how much He loves me!

Going from general prayers in church,to having people pray over and for me and falling under the power of the Holy Spirit as well as feeling and knowing a supernatural change was just amazing ! My personal prayer was simple: Jesus, I make you the Lord of my life, forgive me of my sins and come into my heart ! The transformation was awesome! The world did indeed look and feel so different. I couldn’t help but tell people about my wonderful experience ….some even said “You look so different!” before I had chance to explain !

After this experience, I couldn’t sit in religious churches, where you went through the motions week in and week out. I found, thankfully, that there are churches that offer the fullness of relationship with God and the baptism of the Holy Spirit as well as moving in the gifts that equip and help the body of believers ! What a difference! This was the beginning of a very exciting journey for me!!
