Hall, Adelaide, Australia From the desk of Steve Shultz: This is really good...and is a great reminder that our righteousness is in Christ! As we entered Rosh Hashanah last month, many have done an introspection of themselves, repenting of any sin and asking the Lord to cleanse them in areas needed...so that we can be fully ready for the next assignment He as for us. Tania Hall shares this powerful word about our new season: We have everything we need to push back the forces of darkness and radically advance the Kingdom of God into every sphere of society. A healthy Body trains, equips, celebrates and releases harvesters to go out into every part of society to carry the message of good news. God is equipping and empowering people in the ministry and the marketplace to be beacons of hope and towers of light to the world. That is what we have to look forward to! Be encouraged in this word by Tania and let it minister to you deeply. (To Subscribe to the Elijah List subscribe here.) The truth is that the moment that we are born again, we become the righteousness of Christ empowered by grace to fulfill our God-given destiny." | In these times, it is essential that the Bride does not compromise the truth of the Gospel. Jesus died for our freedom (Galatians 5:1) and His death was not in vain. When we compromise the Word of God by sympathizing with ungodliness and coming into agreement with a lie, people are held in captivity. It is the truth that sets people free (John 8:32) and who the Son sets free is truly free (John 8:36). "Make every effort to live in peace with everyone and to be holy; without holiness no one will see the Lord." (Hebrews 12:14) It is essential that the Church does not compromise truth because without holiness the world will not see God. We are the image of Christ in the world and it is through testimonies of freedom and liberty that the world will see that we have what they need. We Must Eat the Word of God There is an urgency for the Church to know the Word of God. Knowing the Word stops confusion and the truth from being compromised. It also enables us to prophesy accurately and sharply. The Word of God needs be meditated upon. Scripture needs to be put into our mouths, chewed, swallowed and digested by our inner-man. Then what bubbles forth when we open our mouths is the accurate Word of God.

(Jeremiah 15:16) When we marinate in the Word we become not only hearers but doers of the Word. We become the message that is projected into the world. By marinating in the Word of God, the anointing saturates us and flows from our innermost being and through our mouth like honey. Just like Ezekiel, we become carriers of the message. "And He said to me, 'Son of man, eat what is before you, eat this scroll; then go and speak to the people of Israel.' So I opened my mouth, and He gave me the scroll to eat. Then He said to me, 'Son of man, eat this scroll I am giving you and fill your stomach with it.' So I ate it, and it tasted as sweet as honey in my mouth." (Ezekiel 3:1-3) As Spirit-filled Believers, we are to prophesy into the world. First, we eat the Word of God and then what pours forth when we prophesy is the Word. The Word is powerful, alive and active. It divides soul and spirit and brings conviction to the human heart (Hebrews 4:12). Each one of us are carriers of a message into the world. We embody a message and become the message. What message are you projecting into... (continue reading) |
