Two words: “Bigger Vision”
I received two words “Bigger Vision” then the Lord gave me two passages of scripture… (both are well known) Continue reading “A time for Bigger Vision”
House of Bread, Royal calling
On Sunday afternoon (2018-04-15) papa Dexter Low was leading praying for Todd and Rachel Weatherly (Founding Leaders) at Field of Dreams Church .
I handed Dexter a bottle of anointing oil which he used on Todd and Rachel. The oil was from Bethlehem Israel and scented with frankincense, we had brought it home from our last trip to Israel. Continue reading “House of Bread, Royal calling”
One Unit – A force for the Kingdom
A couple of weeks ago Nel sent me a mechanical translation of Deuteronomy 6:4 via Jeff A Benner (Ancient Hebrew Research Centre). In part this was related to my study of the Trinity in the Old Testament for the purpose of sharing with both Jews and Muslims who believe Christians have three Gods (we have one God; in three persons, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit).
Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God, the LORD is one!
He is calling for deeper intimacy
There are two complimentary Prophetic themes coming through at this time.
First, there is a Blessing of the Lord to release, bless, and provide for His Children.
There have been many words recently on this theme and we feel they are correct.
Secondly, there is also a deep call to holiness and intimate relationship.
This is a heart journey as illustrated in the Song of Songs. Continue reading “He is calling for deeper intimacy”
2018 – A year of return and restoration
This post is what is on my heart from the Lord for 2018.
First, 2018 be a year for return and restoration
People that have be away or distant will be drawn back to the Lord and will return to their true calling and purpose. The hearts of the fathers being turned to the children and children to the fathers. The outworking of return will be restoration of relationships in right order before the Lord. Continue reading “2018 – A year of return and restoration”
Unity and coming together
G’Day from Jerusalem
I have a sense that the Lord has something for Revival SA/AHOPFAN, Lutheran Renewal/Overflow, and all city wide community focused groups/congregations. Continue reading “Unity and coming together”
Psalm 33 – The Lord is Awesome
I was in a worship session on Monday and the Lord said to me ‘Psalm 33’. I have been meditating on it for a few days.
The outline of this Psalm of praise is sharp and clear; the call to praise (verses 1-3), the cause for praise (verses 4-19), and the conclusion (verses 20-22). The call is directed toward the righteous, for whom praise to God is fitting. The cause for praise is twofold: The Lord is dependable in both word (verses 4-9), and work (verses 10-12), and the Lord is just and loyal in dealing with His children (verses 13-19). The conclusion is an expression of the joyful hope of the godly in the Lord.
While meditating on this Psalm two consecutive passages spoke strongly to me. First, verses 8-9. Secondly, verses 10-12. These two passages have particular relevance in the current moral issue situation in Australia. Continue reading “Psalm 33 – The Lord is Awesome”
Where is the prophet of the LORD?
The Lord has been showing me the 1 Kings 22 over the last couple of weeks. It is a powerful narrative that shows the desperate need for the true word of the Lord regardless of consequences. Today Australia needs the prophetic voice more than ever!
King Jehoshaphat (יְהוֹשָׁפָט meaning ‘Jehovah has judged’; son of king Asa and himself king of Judah for 25 years; one of the best, most pious, and prosperous kings of Judah) visits the King of Israel (Ahab אַחְאָב a wicked king) and although we know the King of Israel had 400 ‘prophets’ (1 Kings 22:6) Jehoshaphat asks is there a prophet of the Lord! In other words the 400 prophets that the King of Israel had gathered were useless as they were simply a bunch of ‘yes men’.
Jehoshaphat wanted a true man of God to speak! Continue reading “Where is the prophet of the LORD?”
A priest forever according to the order of Melchizedek
Jesus is our high priest and in Hebrews we know He is forever according to the order of Melchizedek. In fact this is referenced 9 times in the book of Hebrews.
Hebrews 5:6 As He also says in another place: “You are a priest forever according to the order of Melchizedek”;
This raises the obvious questions, who was Melchizedek? and why was he significant? Continue reading “A priest forever according to the order of Melchizedek”
Psalm 133 Brethren and Unity – deep understanding
Nel uncovered some more wonderful truth in understanding the Word by going to the underlying meaning of Hebrew words.
Hebrew letters are not just ordinary letters. Each letter is a symbol, full of many inner meanings, from literal straightforward meaning, to deeper spiritual meaning. Understanding the letters provides a wonderful insight into the deeper meanings of the Word.
Psalm 133:1 Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity! Continue reading “Psalm 133 Brethren and Unity – deep understanding”
Releasing the Aaronic Blessing – Part 1
Nel did a bit of deep dive on the Aaronic blessing in Hebrew last Saturday. I base this post in part on her work then some things the Lord showed me. I pray this will bless you all.
Numbers 6:23 Speak to Aaron and his sons, saying, ‘This is the way you shall bless the children of Israel. Say to them:’
24 ‘The LORD bless you and keep you;
25 The LORD make His face shine upon you, and be gracious to you;
26 The LORD lift up His countenance upon you, and give you peace.’
A much fuller translation of the blessing based on the full Hebrew rendering is:
24 Yahweh will kneel before you presenting gifts and will guard you with a hedge of protection.
25 Yahweh will illuminate the wholeness of his being toward you bringing order and he will give you comfort and sustenance.
26 Yahweh will lift up his wholeness of being and look upon you and he will set in place all you need to be whole and complete. Continue reading “Releasing the Aaronic Blessing – Part 1”
Red dust ancient paths, Australia in the balance – a vision
This has been an interesting week as there has been a significant flow in prophecy and visions. I saw the following at a Prophetic Company meeting on Tuesday night and it has been with me since then. It is part of a bigger message that I sense the Holy Spirit speaking to the Church. It is fairly self explanatory, but comment if you wish.
I saw myself walking down a red dust track, an ancient path, in the middle of Australia. Then just above the horizon I saw a giant set of scales. The scales were being held by the what I knew in the Spirit to be the Judge of all nations.

Restoration of the Soul
In Psalm 23:3a we read ‘He restores my soul’, let’s unpack the idea of restoration and see God’s heart in the word ‘restore’.
We desperately need to know that Father God is so much more about restoration than punishment. The wages (and consequences) of sin is death, but the Lord wants us to receive His life and restoration via repentance and belief in the Lord.

Godly women – mighty warriors of the Lord
In the book of Judges chapter 4 we find Deborah was judge (and prophetess) over all of Israel (think in terms of her being a President or Prime Minister).
Judges 4 tells the story of Deborah, Barak her General in charge of the Army of Israel, and Sisera the General of the enemy Canaanite army. The Lord delivers the Canaanites, who were attacking Israel, into Barak’s hands and he defeats them in battle, but the enemy General Sisera escapes but is delivered in to the hands of Jael a woman of Godly honour. Continue reading “Godly women – mighty warriors of the Lord”
Letting the Lord into your heart on the journey
Genesis 24:62 Now Isaac came from the way of Beer Lahai Roi, for he dwelt in the South.
In hebrew בְּאֵר לַחַי רֹאִי Bĕ’er la-Chay Ro’iy is the
“well of the Living One seeing me” so let’s break down the words and understand the meaning of the place name. Names have incredible meaning in scripture and we often overlook searching into names to find nuggets of truth. Continue reading “Letting the Lord into your heart on the journey”
