Dear partners and friends,
Happy New Year! I pray that you will be blessed and highly favored in 2009.
We are now in the last days and it's time to
move into a closeness with God where you live separated unto Him and obey Him in
all the areas of your life. Jesus said in John 15:7, "If you abide in Me and My
words abide in you, ask what you will and it will be done." Now that kind of
living in close fellowship with God produces a great reward.
If you want to know or have more of God in your life
this year, you will have to spend more time with Him. Knowing Him or having more
of Him in your life requires a lifestyle of talking to Him and communing with
Him on a continual basis. It means listening to Him and obeying what you hear
and what you find in the written Word. Learning to live in the place where God
can talk to you at any moment is the secret to living an overcoming
life.
The number one priority in
every Christian's life should be to Know God. It is the key that opens every
spiritual door. Daily communion with God, being intimate with Him strengths you
and undergirds your faith. It is the way love works. Maintaining a connection in
this way with God produces the anointing that enables us to lay hold of all the
wonderful things God has provided for us through Jesus Christ. What you will
have tomorrow will be determined by what is in your heart today.
So when you fill your heart with
the Word and the voice of God, you will remain in Him every day and feast your
heart on His promises and His presence, and your future will be one of joy and
prosperity, healing and health. Instead of chasing after the blessings of God,
you will find that they are chasing you and overtaking you at every turn!
Blessings,
Pastor Debbie

In the Newsletter
In this newsletter, we have a timely word for the year of 2009 from Prophetess Nongolo Muteto, of Royal Concepts Ministries. I believe that as you read this article your spiritual your eyes will be opened and you will receive the blessings that Lord has ordained for you to receive in this new year.

During this month, we are on a 40 days fast and we are having special morning prayers daily on our prayer line at 5:00 a.m. EST. For those who are physically able to do so, I would encourage you to join us during this time of prayer and fasting. Something good always happens when we take steps toward the Lord. Fasting and prayer are one of the ways in which the Bible teaches us to take. It is a step God promises to reward! The prayer line number is (218) 486-7200 and the bridge # 452193.

2009 is Time for Samuel to be Born!
1 Samuel 2: 7-17
Praise the Lord and blessings to you victorious
men and women of God. We are moving yet again into another wonderful year. The
Lord has been good and gracious to us in 2008 and we give Him praise with all that
is within us. Many of us can say of 2008 that it has been a year of Psalm 124 and
also great beginnings. If it had not been for the Lord!!!!
If it had not been the LORD who was on our side, now may Israel say;
If it had not been the LORD who was on our side, when men rose up against
us:
Then they had swallowed us up quick, when their wrath was kindled
against us:
Then the waters had overwhelmed us, the stream had gone over our
soul:
Then the proud waters had gone over our soul.
Blessed be the LORD, who hath not given us as a prey to their
teeth.
Our soul is escaped as a bird out of the snare of the fowlers: the
snare is broken, and we are escaped.
Our help is in the name of the LORD, who made heaven and earth.
Psalm 124 (niv)
Halleluiah
what a mighty God we serve. Yes even in the coming year we will escape as a
bird out of the snare of the fowlers in Jesus name.
Now I want to encourage you to take some
moments and speak into the womb of 2009. Declare and decree what the Lord says
according to His word. Introduce yourself to 2009 by speaking with confidence
the written word of the Lord. Let the expression "it is written" be the start up line to your future! Let 2009 have
an understanding that the word of the Lord is shut up in your bones like fire.
You are forging ahead with bulldog determination.
In 1
Samuel 1:7-17 Hannah went to the temple every day and cried terribly before the
Lord.
In
bitterness of soul Hannah wept much and prayed to the LORD. And she made a vow, saying, "O LORD
Almighty, if you will only look upon your servant's misery and remember me, and
not forget your servant but give her a son, then I will give him to the LORD
for all the days of his life, and no razor will ever be used on his head."
1 Samuel 1:10-11 (niv)
Hannah
persisted until one day. This is the
season of one day. There is always a season of "one day" on the Lord's calendar for us and this is the season. The
Lord responded and Samuel was born. In 2009 the God of Hannah will respond to
our cries in Jesus name. Say to your self "This
is my season of one day"
As I was waiting on the Lord this is what He
said to me and I believe to many of us. "This
is the year for Samuel to be born" in other words this is the time for the
spirit of barrenness to let go! Samuel
means God has heard. Halleluiah in 2009 I hereby declare that the Lord has
heard us in Jesus name!
Most of us have been going through one kind
of barrenness or the other. Barrenness
in finances, relational issues, employment e.t.c and it has pushed many of us
to go before the Lord and cry out to Him from the depths of our hearts. This
has prompted birth bangs to start so that our Samuels can be born.
Friends let us not be weary, let the Lord gird
you with strength in the coming year so that you can bear down for Samuel to be
born. 2009 is a year of fruitfulness. Like Hannah go before the Lord one more
time and position yourself strategically before His throne and let Him hear
your heart.
Yes indeed, our wombs of ministry,
employment, health, marriage, business, and marketplace will be opened in Jesus
name. Samuel will make an appearance in 2009!
Hannah was constantly mocked by Penninah but
in 2009 the Penninahs in your life will to see you hold your miracle. So if you
have been in a Hannah like situation which is a place of intense agony get ready
to see your Samuel. Now we must understand that it will not come without a
fight. We must arm ourselves with the word of God and do all we can in the
physical so that we will not miss the hour of the Lord's visitation.
This
year Penninah will see you with your miracle. Yes all that has mocked you will
have to acknowledge that the God of Luke 18: 27 is on the throne.
Jesus replied,
"What is impossible with men is possible with God." Luke 18:27 (niv)
We shall see that which the spirit of
barrenness has been blocking come to fruition in Jesus name. Your miracle shall
be born. Your job shall be born. You shall see your hopes and aspirations come
to pass. Yes the economy seems to be saying one thing but the God that provided
for Elijah in the wilderness will provide for us. The spirit of lack will look
for you but will not find you because in 2009 you will be under the shadow of
the almighty.
Yes the battle will get intense but the Lord
of Psalm 124 is also the Lord of Psalm 91. The God under whose shadow we hide. Friends let us be encouraged and lift our
heads with expectation. This year our expectations will not be cut short.
So
child of God lift up your heard for your redemption draws nigh. Set your face
like flint and face 2009 with Hope. The Lord has already gone into 2009 and
cleared the way.
"The
LORD your God himself will cross over ahead of you. He will destroy these
nations before you, and you will take possession of their land. Joshua also will
cross over ahead of you, as the LORD said." Deuteronomy
31:3 (niv)
Speak into the womb
of 2009
- Lord even as
Hannah positioned herself in your presence we declare that in 2009 we will
not miss our hour of visitation because the courts of the Lord shall be our
dwelling place.
- Yes we say
Samuel shall be born in Jesus name. We say Samuel come forth. Halleluiah
the Lord has heard us in 2009.
- In the name of
Jesus we declare and decree that 2009 shall be a year of amazing
fruitfulness.
- We speak
fruitfulness to every barren place in our lives and the body of Christ.
- Lord
this year we shall be persistent like blind Bartimaeus. We shall interrupt
the schedule of heaven with persistent intercession. Like the Lord stopped
for blind Bartimaeus. The Lord will stop to hear the cries of His people
in 2009.
He called out,
"Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!"
Those who led
the way rebuked him and told him to be quiet, but he shouted all the more,
"Son of David, have mercy on me!"
Jesus stopped and
ordered the man to be brought to him. When he came near, Jesus asked him,
"What do you want me to do for you?" "Lord, I want to see," he
replied. Luke 18:35-41
- Lord we hereby
declare that we have joy unspeakable full of glory. Yes in 2009 the joy of
the Lord shall be our strength. We say we have strength to push Samuel out
in Jesus name!
- Oh Lord the
news is full of negative commentaries about the economy but today in the
name of Jesus we declare the report of the Lord over the economy.
Halleluiah like David we say we shall not lack bread because Jehovah Jireh
is our economy.
- We speak life
over the economy in Jesus name. We release Deuteronomy 28:3-12 into the
atmosphere of 2009.
We shall be blessed
in the city and blessed in the country.
The fruit of
our womb will be blessed, and the crops of our land and the young of our livestock-the
calves of our herds and the lambs of our flocks.
Our basket
and our kneading trough will be blessed.
We shall be
blessed when we come in and blessed when we go out.
The LORD will
grant that the enemies who rise up against us will be defeated before us. They
will come at us from one direction but flee from us in seven.
The LORD will
send a blessing on our barns and on everything we put our hand to. The LORD our
God will bless us in the land he is giving us.
The LORD will establish us as His holy people,
as he promised us on oath, if we keep the commands of the LORD our God and walk
in His ways. Then all the peoples on
earth will see that we are called by the name of the LORD, and they will fear us.
The LORD will grant us abundant prosperity-in the fruit of our womb, the young
of our livestock and the crops of our ground-in the land he swore to our
forefathers to give us.
The LORD will
open the heavens, the storehouse of His bounty, to send rain on our land in
season and to bless all the work of our hands. We will lend to many nations but
will borrow from none. The LORD will
make us the head, not the tail. If we pay attention to the commands of the LORD
our God that He gives us this day and carefully follow them we will always be at
the top, never at the bottom. We will not turn aside from any of the commands the
Lord gives us today, to the right or to the left, following other gods and
serving them.
- We confidently
declare and decree that in 2009 all manner of barrenness will fall to our
left and to our right even according to Psalm 91:7. In the name of Jesus
we command barrenness to shrivel up and die. We say we are a fruitful
people.
- In His word the
Lord says that the Lord wishes us above all that we should prosper. This
is not so we can be proud but rather so that His Kingdom will be
established here on earth. We hereby declare that we shall prosper in 2009
according to 3 John 1:2
- We declare and
decree that the Lord has called us according to His purposes in His
Kingdom therefore we declare that we shall be fruitful in that which the
Lord has called us to in 2009
- In 2009 our lives
will flow in divine favor and we shall be known as ones whom the Lord
surrounds with favor as a shield. Yes favor is all around us in Jesus name.
·
Lord
we declare that in 2009 we shall be connected to the vine so we can be a life
giver to others. Yes everybody we connect with in 2009 shall be revived by the
rivers of living water that flow through us.
"I am the vine;
you are the branches. If a man remains in me and I in him, he will bear much
fruit; apart from me you can do nothing. John 15:5 (niv)
·
Lord
we pray as Hannah prayed that us you grant us our Samuels we shall dedicate
these gifts to you. We declare that every blessing the Lord releases to us in
2009 will be used for the Glory and Honor of the Lord Jesus Christ!
·
There is a time for everything, and a season for
every activity under heaven: a time to
be born and a time to die, a time to plant and a time to uproot, Ecclesiastes
3:1-2 (niv)
It is time for
Samuel to be born!!!!!
