Equipping the Church with Apostolic/Prophetic Word and Anointing for the Last Day Revival

?NOW IT?S THE TIME ?!?
I feel The Spirit of God saying ?Now it?s the time to?.!

1- NOW IT?S THE TIME TO SEEK THE LORD!
(Isaiah 55:6) Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near:
I feel now it?s the time to seek the Lord, if there is a time for you, as a child of God, Church to seek the Lord is now. God has promised that when we seek him He will be found.
Jeremiah 29:13 And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.
There is a grantee that if we seek and search God with all our hearts, we shall find him. God is saying to you seek me with all your heart, come to me with an open and clean heart and you shall find me.
Mat 6:33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.
I feel the Sprit of the lord emphasizing that many are seeking what is called ?all these things? instead of seeking first the kingdom of God and His righteousness.
God says its time now to first seek his kingdom and His righteousness.
WHY ARE WE NOT SEEING GREAT THINGS TODAY?
ARE MANY PRAYERS ARE NOT ANSWERED TODAY?
God is the one who does miracles, signs and wonders healing the sick. We are not to seek these things but God who does them.

2- NOW IT?S THE TIME TO FOLLOW THE LORD!

John 10:4 And when he putteth forth his own sheep, he goeth before them, and the sheep follow him: for they know his voice.
John 10:5 And a stranger will they not follow, but will flee from him: for they know not the voice of strangers.
Jesus Christ is our shepherd in fact the Bible says of him ?good shepherd, great shepherd and chief shepherd?
As our shepherd, He goes before us expecting us to follow him.
I feel the Spirit of the Lord saying, many are those who are not following the Lord because they don?t take time to hear His voice. Are you following the Lord in what you are doing, in plans, programs, projects, outreaches etc.
Today there are so many voices which are speaking but we are supposed to follow Jesus? voice only.
God says its time to follow the Lord, whatever you are doing make sure you have to follow the Lord not a stranger.

3- NOW IT?S THE TIME TO WAIT UPON THE LORD!
Isaiah 40:28 Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard, that the everlasting God, the LORD, the Creator of the ends of the earth, fainteth not, neither is weary? there is no searching of his understanding.
Isaiah 40:29-31 He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increaseth strength. Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall:
But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.
Today there are many Christians who are weak; spiritually they are weak, fainting, and weary. The reason is that they are not waiting upon the Lord.
I feel the Spirit of the Lord says its time to wait upon the Lord,

4-NOW IT?S THE TIME TO REST IN THE LORD!

Heb 4:10 For he that has entered into his rest, he also has rested from his works, as God did from his own.
I feel the Spirit of the Lord saying ?many are those who are busy doing their own works, even in the name of the Lord? but God says its time to enter unto my rest. He who has entered unto God?s rest, he rests from his own work.
Jesus rested in the Lord during His earthly ministry, he said the works which I do is not mine own but of the father who sent me.
Mat 11:28-30 Come to me, all ye who labour and are burdened, and *I* will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me; for I am meek and lowly in heart; and ye shall find rest to your souls; for my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
Here there is an invitation to come to Jesus all those who labour and are burdened, Jesus says he will give them rest. Jesus is calling all who are labouring unto his rest. For there are many even in thee word of God who are labouring and burdened by the work of God. God says it?s not your work it?s my work, you are not supposed to do it but I do it through you says the Lord.

I am sensing a great visitation of the Lord and for now four weeks we have been praying according to Malachi 3:1-4 and if we seek, follow, wait and rest upon the lord we will experience this visitation.

Lastly beloved we have a petition.

See the following fourm for petition: Ministries In Need and/or Ministry Opportunities
God bless you.
