Listening Prayer

by Apostle Gabriel Cross

If you do all the talking when you pray, you leave no room for the Lord to say anything. The more quieter you become, the more able you are to hear. If you want to hear his voice, simply, take the time to Listen…Selah

From Pain To Reign

by Hazel Straub

Has the pain in your life, ruled and ruined your life? Everything that occurs in life has a purpose, when God is on the throne of your life. Even that of which you are most ashamed and gives you pain, he reclaims. The circumstances and trials that seemed so negative becomes an incredible message, in the Master’s hand.

Joseph’s brothers were jealous of him, rejected him, and sold him into slavery. He ended up in an Egyptian household which he ruled, until he was falsely accused of rape, and  spent years in prison. The prisoners had worked for Pharaoh, so Joseph learned royal protocol and its culture. While imprisoned he forgave his brothers. One day after interpreting Pharaoh’s dream, he was appointed ruler of Egypt. Then through the wisdom given by God, he was able to save not only Egyptians’ lives from starvation but preserved his own family of origin, Israel and many others. Much good came from his hardship and pain. Joseph totally relied on God and saw the evil planned against him turned into good. The great pain prepared Joseph to reign and was not in vain. He saved many people from death by starvation. (Genesis 37-50)

What God does in other’s lives, he will do for you. Your suffering will turn into good, as you allow God to work in your life. Your enemies will see their plans fail.

After the funeral, (of their father), Joseph’s brothers talked among themselves: “What if Joseph is carrying a grudge and decides to pay us back for all the wrong we did him?” So they sent Joseph a message, “Before his death, your father gave this command: Tell Joseph, ‘Forgive your brothers’ sin—all that wrongdoing. They did treat you very badly.’ Will you do it? Will you forgive the sins of the servants of your father’s God?”

When Joseph received their message, he wept.Then the brothers went in person to him, threw themselves on the ground before him and said, “We’ll be your slaves.”

Joseph replied, “Don’t be afraid. Do I act for God? Don’t you see, you planned evil against me but God used those same plans for my good, as you see all around you right now—life for many people. Easy now, you have nothing to fear; I’ll take care of you and your children.” He reassured them, speaking with them heart-to-heart. (Genesis 50:15-21 MSG)

God’s Masterpiece!

by Apostle Gabriel Cross

God says you are valuable. The value that he has placed within you is far greater than what this world can offer you. Therefore, the One who uses the earth, as his footstool, had his Son die for you and destroy the works of the devil, in your life. He loved and loves you, so much that he sacrificed his son’s life because he valued you and placed value within you. You are a pearl of great price, you are the apple of God’s eye, you are God’s masterpiece! You are a rare extraordinaire. You are anointed to be You.

Value you. Come into agreement with heaven and God’s desires towards you. Your wrongs, failures, past or events in the past do not define you, nor determine your value. You have a will, you have a choice and you can change your mind, at anytime. God gave you this benefit because he wanted to be in a relationship with someone, who wants to be with Him. No more reduction to slavery, forced against your will, worshipping out of a discipline but out of a love affair, with God in Christ.

The past can no longer hinder you, the Hurt can no longer deceive you, the person(s) can no longer hold you back. Fill your horn with oil and go. Move forward into glorious victory. The enemies of your soul, have been conquered. You are catapulted, launched to a new realm of living and authority. Your mind is free to breathe and feast on the treasures of His glory and every word that proceeds, from the mouth of God.

God has already given you the resources, so pay no attention to the bluffs of the enemy. God has made you valuable in his image and in his likeness that you would reign on this earth, as prophet priest and king–walking in dominion and not defeat.

Limitations are broken off your mind from this day forth. I break the spirit of pharaoh that only lets you go so far and then yokes you back. I declare the spirit of Pharez, the breaker anointing, over you and break off every enemy over you and over every doorway that is supposed to be open to you. I take the master key of David and I unlock your potential, your momentum, divine graces upon your life, new mantles of prosperity, new mantles of wisdom, new mantles of worship, new mantles of hearing the voice of The Lord! The Practical is connected to your spiritual. First the natural, then the spiritual. (1 Corinthians 15:46)

I am making you anew, for the next 3 months, move into what I’ve called you to and I will shift the heavens over you, draw support to you, divine connections for you and cause laws and paperwork to work in favor of you. You are valuable! Because I value you and my value lives in you! Do what the enemy said you couldn’t do. Run through a troop. Leap over the wall. Seize your enemies, pursue your enemies, by fulfilling, accomplishing, writing the plan, writing the vision, executing the promises. No more local mentality but global mentality.

Fear Not!

by Hazel Straub

Those bought with the blood of Jesus, need not fear disaster, personal challenges, or the enemy of our soul. No matter what we face, Yahweh’s presence and favor accompanies us.

He saves, preserves and delivers us through what looks impossible. Fear not that your challenge, trial or testing will destroy you, for Yahweh is with you. His presence sustains you through your crisis. He knows your name, values, honors and loves you. Fear not!

Now, this is what Yahweh says:
“Listen, Jacob, to the One who created you,
Israel, to the one who shaped who you are.
Do not fear,
for I, your Kinsman-Redeemer, will rescue you.
I have called you by name, and you are mine.
When you pass through the deep, stormy sea,
you can count on me to be there with you.
When you pass through raging rivers,
You will not drown.
When you walk through persecution like fiery flames,
you will not be burned;
the flames will not harm you,
for I am your Savior, Yahweh, your mighty God,
the Holy One of Israel!
I give up Egypt as the price to set you free,
Cush and Seba in exchange to bring you back.
Since you are cherished and precious in my eyes,
and because I love you dearly and want to honor you,
I willingly give up nations in exchange for you—
a man to save your life. (Isaiah 43:1-4 TPT)

Jesus Makes Us Righteous

 

by Hazel Straub

Through Jesus the Son of God, we are in right standing with God. Absolutely amazing! God loves us and made the way for us to have relationship with him through Christ. We couldn’t do it on our own, so he did it for us. We believe and receive the righteousness of Jesus..

For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him. (2 Corinthians 5:21 NKJV)

In The Process

by Apostle Gabriel Cross

DO NOT GET LOST IN THE PROCESS. No matter how much we kick, scream, pray, and want things to change instantly, sometimes we just have to endure and be encouraged during the process.

God gave Joseph a dream, an anointing to interpret dreams, and a huge destiny. Although he shared the dream, not everyone was supportive or happy concerning the dream. Nevertheless, Until the time that his word came: The word of the Lord tried him. (Psalms 105:19). The trying of the word of The Lord is called “the process”. While in the process you are being processed.

Process -a continuous action, operation, or series of changes taking place in a definite manner.

It doesn’t always feel good or pleasurable growing through the process but Yahweh is working a far greater weight of his glory, stronger grace of his anointing, and the power of His character in your life. So don’t fight the process, EMBRACE THE WORD AND THE CONSEQUENCES THAT COME ALONG WITH IT…You’ll be more like Jesus when you do…Selah

What Is Your Harvest?

by Hazel Straub

What kind of seeds do you sow in your life? When you sow and plant seeds, it is not always evident what they will become. However, at harvest time, the crop whether weeds or good crops is seen. Seeds that cater to the flesh and selfishness will get a bad crop of disaster. However, when we die to our flesh and live by God’s Spirit, we will reap eternal life and blessings.

Make no mistake about it, God will never be mocked! For what you plant will always be the very thing you harvest. The harvest you reap reveals the seed that was planted. If you plant the corrupt seeds of self – life into this natural realm, you can expect to experience a harvest of corruption. If you plant the good seeds of Spirit-life you will reap the beautiful fruits that grow from the everlasting life of the Spirit. And don’t allow yourselves to be weary or disheartened in planting good seeds, for the season of reaping the wonderful harvest you’ve planted is coming! Take advantage of every opportunity to be a blessing to others, especially to our brothers and sisters in the family of faith! (Galatians 6:7-11 TPT)

God Or People Approval?

by Apostle Gabriel Cross

Please do not discount or devalue the unconditional love and approval of God, for the conditional love and approval of others. Many today, have diminished and replaced the approval of God, with the “like button,” on Facebook or other social media sites. We have become more consumed with “who likes me,” and “who loves it,” and not with the “One whom created me,” and “unconditionally loves me.”

For example, we all desire to be heard, but sometimes, God desires us to be silent, or to study to be quiet. Some have no accountability to others, because they have no accountability to God. Therefore, they are prone, or liable to, post anything, whether it’s pleasing to God or not. We are not our own, but we belong to Yahweh. Therefore, when you live for the approval of others, you already have your reward. However, when you live for the approval of the King of kings, you realize you’re already approved and even greater will be your reward.

Don’t trade God’s approval for the approval of people. Don’t reduce your life in Christ, to living by the impulse of what other people are thinking, saying on social media, on the news, and in the world. When it’s God, it’s God, and when it’s not, it’s not.

Don’t determine if you’re right with God, or how anointed you are, based on how many likes and hits you receive. You remember, David got in trouble for counting numbers (1 Chronicles 21; 2 Samuel 24:1).

Don’t fall for the gimmicks and tricks of the enemy: “If you post this you’ll be blessed, if you don’t you’ll be cursed.” “Share this with 5 people and you’ll be blessed with an angel tonight.” If you hit like on this, you’re not ashamed of God, if you don’t hit like, then you are.” These are all gimmicks, clichés, and schemes of the enemy. God has not called you to live by these things, you are called to live in Truth, every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God.

Live for the One, who can create and end life, and raise it up again, not for the one who can only end it. Live a genuine fruitful life in Christ, not one that is predicated on the opinions, idioms, and the superficial of social media. All these things are subject to change, but the Word of God does not, it only changes your life, forever.

God’s Throne of Grace And Mercy

by Hazel Straub

Concerned about the circumstances and situations happening today, in your life? We do not need to worry, when we keep our focus on the Lord Jesus, God’s one and only Son. Through him, we can access the throne room of God and receive mercy and grace for our every need. We boldly come to God in prayer through Jesus, and receive all that we need.

Circumstances may change but God does not and he favors you because of Jesus. Trust and rely on God, knowing that all you need he provides! With Jesus, advocating for you, nothing is impossible. God cares for you!

But Jesus the Son of God is our great High Priest who has gone to heaven itself to help us; therefore let us never stop trusting him. This High Priest of ours understands our weaknesses since he had the same temptations we do, though he never once gave way to them and sinned. So let us come boldly to the very throne of God and stay there to receive his mercy and to find grace to help us in our times of need. (Hebrews 4:14-16 TLB)
