BREAKING INTO THE OTHER REALM OF WORSHIP


BREAKING INTO THE OTHER REALM OF WORSHIP 

Written By Dr. Joel Dabbas 

SCRIPTURE: And the man bowed down his head, and worshipped the Lord | Genesis 24:26 KJV

 
There is a reality in the realm of the spirit that one can never ascend until one engages true worship this is because worship is a doorway to supernatural realities.

Worship is an act and posture for only men and women of the Spirit. That is why Jesus said that the Father is "looking for those that will worship Him in Spirit and in truth"
You can learn the act of praying, the act of praising but you can't learn the act of worshipping. Not because it is complex but because it is manifold in nature. So it is a posture your spirit man assumes when you truly and genuinely come before God and when the radiance of His light beams upon you. Hence you leave a worship experience with a climate and an atmosphere that seeps into you as you consistently and deliberately release yourself to His presence. With this continuous existence and niche you have acquired with God the atmosphere of His person thickens around you that you can actually stir outburst of worship easily when people step around you. 

Let me established this fact here that in the realm of the Spirit, there are plains of worship and in this place the supernatural is highly evident. But why is it that many believers have not come out with tangible evidences from the place of worship? Or why have many believers not shifted into another dimension of worship? And why have many not truly worshipped?
Understand that worship is a sacred association between God and man. It is a deep intimate engagement between God and man. Worship is a mystery so it means that knowledge is required to break the code in the realm of the Spirit. 

First off is an innate nature of a believer which is enhanced by practiced. There is a spiritual education that our spirit man first begins to go through. This is not knowledge based it is illumination based. So you can never completely learn the art of worship because it is has deep as the one been worshipped. Since is deeper, higher and widder than our knowledge and thought so all we will do here in this body is a tip of the iceberg. 
To connect to the extraordinary and extranatural in the place of worship you must:

LOOSE YOUR PRESENCE
When you come into the plain of worship you take your existence, personality and level in the physical out of the way. If you are in church, at home or anywhere worshipping and you are still hundred percent in self awareness, you have not been immerged yet in the river of worship. When this river floods over you, you get totally drunk. 
Jesus said that true worship is spiritual, so if you are still physical you miss the deep Joy and blessings that flows from the throne of Grace. 

The veil of the flesh is a major blocker into the higher dimensions of worship. Break this barrier and float in the presence of God 

HAVE A LIGHT SPIRIT 
Worship is easy when you have a light spirit. There is a demonic spirit called "the spirit of heaviness" it is a worship blocker. It puts satanic weight on the spirit of men so that they can't float and rise into plains of worship. 

COME WITH WORDS 
Worship is possible with love that is why only lovers worship. The rarest of words are only found in the depths of the heart filled with love. When you are truly in love with someone your vocabularies are unlocked, that is what happens in worship. Come with words, never lack vocabulary when coming before Him in worship. David was a man full of words to describe the person, character and nature of God. 
Two ways you can build your vocabulary are:
A. By studying the word
 
B. By deliberately learning to turn the faithful manifestations of God into words.
 
As you continue, you will begin to access two dimensions: 
One is the place of wordless worship: Here is when your natural words comes to an end, you will begin to just see Majesty, see Gods limitless expressions. It could appear in pictures or video like display. For instance, you begin to see Gods mightiness in your thoughts. It grows bigger and bigger that your imagination and thought cannot contain and fathom any longer. 
Then next you burst into another realm of words: this what i call words without end. It is the place of eternal vocabulary. You will begin to encounter ageless and ancient words. This steams from the wordless encounter. You will access words coded with fire, truth and love. These words from this encounter when read by another can cause an outburst in their spirits. Because they are words that was communicated with the God realm. 

May worship sporadically burst from your soul and spirit today in Jesus' Name

THE SPIRITUAL CLIMATE AFTER THE PANDEMIC

After the COVID-19 pandemic

THE SPIRITUAL CLIMATE AFTER THE PANDEMIC

"And said to his servant, Go up now, look toward the sea. And he went up, and looked, and said, There is nothing. And he said, Go again seven times.
And it came to pass at the seventh time, that he said, Behold, there ariseth a little cloud out of the sea, like a man's hand. And he said, Go up, say unto Ahab, Prepare thy chariot , and get thee down, that the rain stop thee not.
And it came to pass in the mean while, that the heaven was black with clouds and wind, and there was a great rain. And Ahab rode, and went to Jezreel.
And the hand of the Lord was on Elijah; and he girded up his loins, and ran before Ahab to the entrance of Jezreel"
- 1 Kings 18:43-46 KJV


During the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic the world was and is thrown out of shape, out of form and darkness crawled into various spheres of human life.
I write this out of a burdened spirit but whose sight is on the light that is forth coming. I write this to the Church of God all over the world and particularly to those labouring tenaciously in the vineyard of our Lord and King.

Many things are happening now and will yet happen after now. Two nations distinct in many ways are going to arise in the body after the series of events that has occurred and will yet occur.
First, there will be a rise of a super faith nation (people): This set of people are deeply fearless. Despite the roughness and toughness of the events they have passed through yet they are solid for God. Men forged through fire and appearing as gold. It will be faith on fire for these ones.

Secondly, is a rise of the faithless nation (people): This are those who have given up on God because of the events that have occurred thus far. The worst amongst this are a set of people who will become selective believers of the truth and those who will totally disbelieve the truth of God's word.

Especially, there will arise a set of people who won't believe supernatural healing anymore. They will say if God truly heals why was there massive deaths during the pandemic. They will disbelief servants of God. It will be so much that many minister's will literally be afraid to pray for healing or to preach/teach about it. It is will be so fierce, it is a satanic strategy to intimidate the Body and her ministers.
But hear this o beloved servant of God, it will be the very right time to preach about healing. There will be massive revival that will erupt and it will be ran by the super faith nation (people). This is one revival the world has never experienced before and one of the tools in the coming revival is healing. There will be mighty signs and wonders. The times of the Apostles are upon us already. The cloud is dark and gathering already. God is looking for those whose faith is supercharged and on fire to front unusual and uncommon exploits. There will be a rise of great healing prophets, because the prophetic is going to be heavy in the season ahead. Such as never seen before.

This move will redeem and pull many from the faithless nation back to repentance and many who have not known the Lord will rush into the Kingdom because thus saith the Lord "And it shall come to pass in the last days, that the mountain of the Lord's house shall be established in the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow unto it" (Isaiah 2:2 KJV).
It is a torrential session of power and great grace. I hear the sound of abundance of rain in the nations of the earth. The fields are white, the harvest is ready and labourers must arise now!
Glory to God.

Please do share with Pastors and believers round the globe. Something big is about to happen.

Yours in the vineyard

THE FEARFUL







THE FEARFUL 
Teaching By Pastor Joel Dabbas 
SCRIPTURE: But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death | Revelation 21:8 KJV

The Scripture reveals what can take one into the lake of fire and it opens with "the fearful" at the top of the order. What is in fear that God will decide to throw anyone out of the Kingdom because of It? Why is it that God won't condone the fearful in the Kingdom?
There are different types of fear. Many times you would have been afraid because of one thing or the order. For instance if all of a sudden you hear that there is a lion running down the street, you will be afraid and run for safety. The adrenaline surge will be immediately triggered because of the information you just received. This is fear that pushes you to look for safety. This is not the type of fear God is talking about here. The type of fear God is talking about is that fear that impacts the soul of a man. Any fear that makes one sale his soul to the devil will take anyone from the Kingdom of God.

For instance:

1. Those Who Because Of Fear Couldn't Reject The Mark Of The Beast:

"It has been decreed by God that whoever excepts the mark of the beast will not enter into Heaven" (Revelation 14:9-10).
The events after the rapture of the Church will be so horrific, i can't even imagine it. In Revelation 13:17 the Scripture states that the anti-Christ will tighten the situation of things to the point that people cannot buy or sell except they have the mark of the beast. Now those believers who were not raptured will have to pay for their salvation with their own blood. And many for the fear of survival, the prevailing circumstances and laws will give in. These are in the class of the fearful. That is is why i beg of you to lead your life in a way that is pleasing and acceptable unto God. So that you and I will be part of the first flight when Christ returns.


2. Those Who Are Too Fearful To Be Called Christian:


"Whosoever therefore shall be ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation; of him also shall the Son of man be ashamed, when he cometh in the glory of his Father with the holy angels" (Mark 8:38).
I checked the word ashamed in the Oxford English dictionary and I picked up these two meanings:
First it is to be embarrassed or guilty because of one's actions, characteristics, or associations.
Second, it is to be reluctant to do something through fear of embarrassment or humiliation.
There are times people feel embarassed to stand for Jesus and His word in the society, amongst friends, colleagues and so on. They bury their head in shame and flow with the crowd.
When they are attacked by group of mockers they become afraid and disassociate themselves with Jesus.
There are those who are ashamed amongst friends to be known by Jesus. Also there are those who are ashamed to make a post about Jesus on social media. I have seen many who won't hold their Bible just because they are ashamed of carrying the word of God or called a Christian.
When I was in the university, there were times I have been mocked at for carrying the Bible. One time some Muslims threatened me for carrying the Bible. I was bold and not ashamed of the Gospel. Apostle Paul said in Romans 1:16 "For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek."
When people are doing wrong thing in your place of work; they want to manipulate figures and so on. Stand like Daniel and friends for God. Don't because of the fear of condemnation and mockery of friends, family and the society become ashamed to be named with Jesus.



3. Those Who Were Too Fearful And Denied The Lord Jesus:

Jesus says: "But he that denieth me before men shall be denied before the angels of God" (Luke 12:9). 
I have heard of believers and pastors in Northern Nigeria who during crisis and persecution for the fear of been killed denied Jesus. Some of them even after denouncing Jesus were killed. There are sisters who have denied Jesus because they wanted money and the good life. There are brothers who have denounced the Lord because they want a good job and so on.
These are part of the fearful. When your conviction is tested, two things are called into play. It is either you chicken out or stand firm for Jesus. We are in perilous times already things will come up to test our resolve and conviction in God don't deny Jesus.
Recently, the Boko Haram sect in Northern Nigeria beheaded a pastor and posted the video on the internet: because he refused to denounce Christianity and our Lord Jesus. There is another young girl (a fifteen year old) by the name Lydia a secondary school student who was abducted by the Islamic sect and was not released because she refused to deny Jesus. And many people through history and many nations have stood valiantly even in the face of death for Jesus. They refuse to be the FEARFUL but the FEARLESS.


4. Those Who Are Too Fearful To Overcome Evil Manipulation:

Then there are those who are bound by fear and have become too fearful because of evil reports and bad news. Their hearts and soul is now encapsulated by it. For instance the doctor says that the condition is bad and from that time you allowed the devil to grip your spirit, soul and body with fear. You suddenly forget the divine promises of God and all you can think of is that lie of the devil. This is been fearful and can drive one away from the Kingdom. If you are passing through such right now don't go through it in fear. David said "even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death I fear no evil." What you are passing through should not become the reason to be fearful. Be bold and very courageous holding unto "Jesus the author and finisher of our faith."
Don't allow yourself be overcome by the spirit of fear that the devil is trying to use to deceive people today. Some from the fear of the situation they are in have disbelieved God and abused God. Some just like Jobs' wife have said "curse God and die" This are sins that leads to damnation. Never allow any condition manipulate you against God.

5. Those Ahat Are Too Fearful To Be Single:


There are Christian ladies who have kept themselves all along and because it seems there is delay or marriage is not forthcoming as they thought or for the fear of never been married or able to give birth because of menopause, they begin to engage in fornication. And some of them have come up with logic backing what they are doing. They fell because of fear.

Why is God not interested in the fearful?

A. Who you are afraid of determines who you will give your allegiance to:


Any fear that steals your allegiance to God, His words and kingdom makes God uninterested in having you with Him in glory.

B. Who you are afraid of is the one who will Lord over your life or control you

Anything you are afraid of is what you will honour and what you honour will Lord over you.

C. When you are afraid you abuse God's presence:

Psalm 23:4 says that
"Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me." God's presence in you and with you when acknowledged kills fear and makes you not to become the fearful.

D. To be fearful is to have a strange spirit: "For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind" (2 Timothy 1:7 KJV)
People who are fearful are controlled by a spirit that is alien to the kingdom.

"Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil; And deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage. For verily he took not on him the nature of angels; but he took on him the seed of Abraham"
(Hebrews 2:14-16; KJV)
Do you see that? One of the reasons that Jesus had to put on the human body and not come in the form of an angel was to pull people whose soul were bound in perpetual fear. Mankind was terrorized by the slave master the devil and he ruled man by fear. The devil captures men by fear and rules them by fear.

Finally, Remember that any fear that is looking for your soul, looking for how to disconnect you from God will take you out of eternity with God.

GIVEN UNTO US

Things
All Things

GIVEN UNTO US ALL THINGS

SCRIPTURE: According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue | 2 Peter 1:3

One astounding truth about believers in Jesus Christ is that we have already been given everything needed for abundant Christian living. As we became born again, God deliberately upgrades us with the facilities of the Kingdom so that we are adequately furnished. This makes that we have nothing lacken and nothing missing in our lives that is important for life and godliness.

The process for accessing these comprehensive resources of the kingdom was determined by His divine power.
It is the dynamic power of God that fronted this and processed it for us.
If the power of God made this possible then as believers, we should never be devoid or alien to the power of God.

The power of God through Christ Jesus made provisions for all you will ever need for life and godliness.
So what you need to live your life in this world is all provided by the power of God ; and all you need to live the life in the spirit to its fullest maximum is already added unto you.
You are not deficient in anyway; you don't have a a life that is disadvantaged. Glory to God!
You don't have difficulty in expressing godliness (the nature and character God in you). You freely and effortlessly express and dispense the holiness and righteousness of God. Your life oozes out the manifold effulgence of God's nature for the world to see.
The only limit that deprives us from coming into the fullness of everything that was given to us is the level of our knowledge. Everything God's power has given to us can only be accessed through the "knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue." The more you know Christ Jesus the more you will access what God had given unto you.

For instance, any soldier that is ill equipped will end as a casualty in the face of war. You must understand that a soldier is not well equipped because he has all the gadgets, arsenals and weapons at his disposal. He can have all of these at his disposal and end up fatally.
The knowledge of the equipments he has is vital. Imagine a soldier fighting with a pistol against well equipped enemy when he has an AK-47, he becomes cheap.
By the virtue of the finished work of Christ we have been equipped for life and godliness. By this you are equipped to live above sin, spiritual weakness and apathy. Glory to God!!
Live in this light. You are not a victim but a Victor. You are not the tail but the head.
You have all you need, discover it and activate its manifestation in your life.  


HAPPY MOTHERS DAY

OUSTANDING MOTHER'S OF THE BIBLE

Before the fall and after the fall of man, woman remains a special target of the devil especially mothers. Because haven heard the Lord said openly that the seed of the woman will crush his head, enmity has been created between the woman and the devil. But in the face of this onslaught women and indeed mothers have risen who have stood their ground for God and the kingdom and in the process raising seeds that have indeed bruised and are still be using the head of the enemy today.

For example:

Jochebed

A powerful woman of faith and boldness. A the time she was pregnant for Moses there was a law that calls for the extermination of male children but when she gave birth to her child we saw the following atittude:
A. She sought to preserve her seed by all means
True mothers are preservers of seeds and not destroyers of seeds. Some mothers abort their seeds; their are somegiven to witchcraft and demonic activities by it hunt their children. True mothers preserve their seeds
B. She saw destiny in her child
Scripture says that she saw that he was a proper child. Every true mother has the eyes of the spirit to see destiny in her kids. So she guards her tongue and not carelessly scatter or shatter the seed of destiny given to her by God.
C. She was a woman of great wisdom 
Only a wise woman can protect, preserve and train a Moses into maturity. She raised kingdom stars: Prophetess Miriam, priest Aaron and Prophet/leader/judge/God's servant and friend Moses.

LOIS AND EUNICE 

In 2 Timothy 1:5 the Bible says that
"When I call to remembrance the unfeigned faith that is in thee, which dwelt first in thy grandmother Lois, and thy mother Eunice; and I am persuaded that in thee also."
Here we see two generations of powerful mothers. There was no generational breach of the faith. Lois raised Eunice and so to their Child Timothy. Who rose to become a powerful tool in the New Testament. True mothers raised their seed after God.

ABIGAIL 

A wise woman who defended her home even though her marriage was in chaos and married to a foolish son of belial. She kept her home from destruction.

Motherhood is a special spiritual and physical responsibility. 

Motherhood is a product of pain

Motherhood is a product of love: the act of love making 

Motherhood is the product of acceptance: the body accepts the seed collected

Motherhood is a trust by God and by man

We celebrate this unique gift of God in human frame.

UNDER A DIVINING SYSTEM



UNDER A DIVINING SYSTEM

Teaching By Dr Joel Dabbas 

SCRIPTURE: And the king of Egypt spake to the Hebrew midwives, of which the name of the one was Shiphrah, and the name of the other Puah:
And he said, When ye do the office of a midwife to the Hebrew women, and see them upon the stools; if it be a son, then ye shall kill him: but if it be a daughter, then she shall live.
But the midwives feared God, and did not as the king of Egypt commanded them, but saved the men children alive.
And the king of Egypt called for the midwives, and said unto them, Why have ye done this thing, and have saved the men children alive?
And the midwives said unto Pharaoh, Because the Hebrew women are not as the Egyptian women; for they are lively, and are delivered ere the midwives come in unto them.
Therefore God dealt well with the midwives: and the people multiplied, and waxed very mighty. And it came to pass, because the midwives feared God, that he made them houses.
And Pharaoh charged all his people, saying, Every son that is born ye shall cast into the river, and every daughter ye shall save alive | Exodus 1:15-22


The dictionary defines divination as the art or practice that seeks to foresee or foretell future events or discover hidden knowledge usually by the interpretation of omens or by the aid of supernatural powers. Also it is an unusual insight : intuitive perception.
Those who engage in this are called diviners: they use occultic means and satanic agencies to gain insight into the destiny of people. They are soothsayers, prognosticators, witches, wizards and witch doctors who uses charms to invoke, and pry into the lives of people.
Listen anything done to mystically engage the documents of the spirit written about a person so that it can be manipulated or altered is not of God and God is against it. That is why God vehemently and constantly speaks in His word in Isaiah 44:25-26 saying
"That frustrateth the tokens of the liars, and maketh diviners mad; that turneth wise men backward, and maketh their knowledge foolish; That confirmeth the word of his servant, and performeth the counsel of his messengers; that saith to Jerusalem, Thou shalt be inhabited; and to the cities of Judah, Ye shall be built, and I will raise up the decayed places thereof"
Futhermore in Numbers 23:23 the Bible says that "Surely there is no enchantment against Jacob, neither is there any divination against Israel: according to this time it shall be said of Jacob and of Israel, What hath God wrought!"
And also in Exodus 22:18 Scripture reveals a fatal judgement of such, it says that "Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live."
I speak into your life right now, any work of divination that have stalled your life, destiny, family And ministry are destroyed in Jesus name.

From our anchor text two things are revealed to us about the strategy of demonic attack:

First is the ATTACK FROM WITHIN: Pharoah first of all called the Hebrew midwives and gave them the assignment of killing every male child born to any Hebrew family. But because they feared the Lord, they didn't do it. The devil regularly fights from within without. The attack you will face in life, destiny and even ministry is always within first before it becomes without. If the devil wins within, he won't employ a without. Usually the within battle is very crafty, and not aggressive to be noticed.

Secondly, is the ATTACK FROM WITHOUT: When Pharoah saw that the internal didn't work out then he got his men to begin to fight. This second phase of attack is very radical, visible and fierce. In this type of battle, the face of the fighter is visible to you.

Moses was born at this time where the battle without was very fierce. I want you to know that Egypt was a divining nation. They work by divination, that is why in the palace of the king of Egypt there are a lot of diviners, soothsayers, witches and so on. God kept Moses from conception to birth, from delivery until adulthood.
The world is also a DIVINING system. Someone reading right now might have grown or is growing in homes, territories, villages and hamlets where powerful diviners have searched out your destiny and have probably attacked or influenced it; in the name of Jesus, just as Moses rose to destroy that system you will rise also.

While growing under a DIVINING system one prominent thing is that you will always see what you are meant to solve but will be incapacitated to solve it. For instance, you might be wired to end poverty but will be incapacitated to solve it. Moses was born to deliver Israel, and every time he sees the pain Isrel was passing through, he wants to help alleviate the situation but couldn't do anything.
The divining system also ensures that even when you try to manifest destiny it will be wrongly read. When Moses tried to do something, even the Israelites miss read it and judged him. They couldn't see his effort as good for the revolution that is to come.
I write this under the instruction of God for your deliverance. You are breaking out of the diviners hands today. That manipulated destiny is going to be redirected by the breath of God in Jesus name.

Say, O Lord, by the power of Your word that I have just read, I break out of every siege and influence controlling my life, destiny, family and ministry in Jesus name.

Say, O Lord, just as You raised Moses to break the jaws of the diviners of Egypt. Father Lord, train and equip me to destroy every satanic system in my territory, family and work place that is out to hinder and impede my life and the that of others in Jesus name

Say, every satanic spell placed on my life by diviners, I command it to expire by fire now in Jesus name

Every demonic personality very close to me that is involved in the battles of my destiny I crush you now in Jesus name

Every satanic machinery without that is visibly out fighting against me in my workplace, business, school I tear their lives into pieces in Jesus name

I decree that I cannot be hindered nor stopped in Jesus name 


THE EVENING SACRIFICE




THE EVENING SACRIFICE

Teaching By Pastor Dr. Joel Dabbas

SCRIPTURE: Let my prayer be set forth before thee as incense; and the lifting up of my hands as the evening sacrifice | Psalm 141:2 

There are mysteries that believers must understand in other to profit from the systems of the spirit. The kingdom of God is within you as soon as you became born again but the rate at which everyone will manifest the kingdom differs; it is to the degree of insight into the mysteries of the Kingdom that you have. You remain in spiritual nursery when you lack understanding of the mysteries of the Kingdom. 
There are several watches of the day and several events takes place within these watches. One of those events according to Scripture was the evening sacrifice this takes place at the ninth hour. 

But what is an evening sacrifice?

In ancient times in Israel, every morning, at about 9am, the first sacrifice was laid upon the altar in both the Tabernacle of Moses and later in the Temple of Solomon. This was the morning sacrifice, and the people of Israel gathered together to worship every morning at this time as the sacrifice was laid upon the altar and offered to the Lord. Then again, at 3pm, the evening sacrifice was laid upon the altar, and once again the people of Israel gathered at the Tabernacle/Temple to worship as the sacrifice was offered to the Lord. The morning and evening sacrifice was the daily schedule of an Israelite. 
The principle of this sacrifice is that it must be carried out in the temple. So no temple, no sacrifice.

King David had written this Psalm at a season of separation; he was either running for his life from King Saul, or from Absalom, or was in a situation in which he was cut off from the place of worship and could not participate in the daily sacrifices. But David does not allow himself to feel cut off from the Lord because he is cut off from the Tabernacle: May my prayer be set before you like incense; may the lifting of my hands be like the evening sacrifice. David was saying that I may not have a sacrifice to lay on an altar right now, but I do have hands and a mouth! I can lift up my prayers to you, and in the lifting of my hands, I can offer You me!
He understood that if the principle is no temple, sacrifice; he is the mobile temple of God and so he won't be restricted by a physical building in other to give unto God sacrifice. 

Here are some powerful examples of some events of the evening sacrifice:

First is Elijah, he was up against the prophets of Baal on Mount Carmel and by twelve noon he urged them to call on their god to answer by fire. They kept shouting and cutting themselves but there was no answer. When it was about the time for the evening sacrifice, Elijah stopped them and called down fire to consume the altar. He had the spiritual intelligence on the events of that hour and knew that he would gain victory for God at that time (1 Kings 18:36-39). 
Likewise in Matthew 27:46 "And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?" Jesus the perfect and highest sacrifice of God released His Spirit at the time of the evening sacrifice. 

So David in our anchor text reveals something powerful as one who has insight into dimensions of the spirit. He said "let the lifting of our hands be as an evening sacrifice." The meaning of this is that there is a realm a believer should get to that the power that the people of old evoked and encountered at the evening sacrifice can be unveiled by just the lifting up of the hands in worship.
Lifting up your hand is a posture of surrender; it is a statement of o Lord take all of me; You have all of me. It is a declaration of o Lord You own my everything and give unto You my everything .
The best sacrifice anyone can give unto God is the sacrifice of ourselves (Romans 12:1-2). When this is genuinely done unto God, it stimulates heavens respond. 
Just like fire came down for Elijah and swallowed the altar; the fire of God will consume evil altars when you declare. 
Just like Jesus gave up the Ghost and the earth shook, things that are anti destiny in your life will be shaken away.
Finally, Jesus became the perfection of the evening sacrifice and the perfect sacrifice un time and all of eternity. So that we can be one with God and have the authority in Jesus to manifest the power people of old saw when the engaged the evening sacrifice. 

Peter and John afterwards went out at the ninth hour (the time for the evening sacrifice) to worship and pray as usual but the difference this time was that they were coming on the heels of the sacrifice of Jesus and they manifested the power of God by healing a man lame from his mother's womb (Acts 3:1-11). Create a time with God and be consistent with It, by this you are creating a spiritual climate of power and possibilities.
Continue in deep communion with God .

THE EMERGING CHURCH



THE EMERGING CHURCH

                            Teaching By Dr Joel Dabbas 

In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic the world was thrown into total confusion. The impact of the pandemic on the world is enormous and the world will grapple with this for a very long time. But in the face of all of these there is an EMERGING CHURCH, a rise of a breed that even the devil has never anticipated before, they will be ferocious and bruise the head of the devil by the power of God.

Here are SEVEN things you need to know about the EMERGING CHURCH:

It is a FEARLESS Church

As A. W. Tozer put it this way, “A frightened world needs a fearless church.”  The EMERGING Church is going to be the FEARLESS one. Many ministries have not been able to break into territories that the Lord have given unto them because of fear. A fearful Church inhibits and limits the momentum of supernatural flow. 

Acts 21:11-14 says "And when he was come unto us, he took Paul's girdle, and bound his own hands and feet, and said, Thus saith the Holy Ghost, So shall the Jews at Jerusalem bind the man that owneth this girdle, and shall deliver him into the hands of the Gentiles. And when we heard these things, both we, and they of that place, besought him not to go up to Jerusalem. Then Paul answered, What mean ye to weep and to break mine heart? for I am ready not to be bound only, but also to die at Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus. And when he would not be persuaded, we ceased, saying, The will of the Lord be done."

God's business can be delayed and hindered by the fearful and that is why God does no business with the fearful. The Emerging Church are a bunch of FEARLESS people who are as bold as a lion doing the will of the Lord without looking back.

It is a FORWARD Church

Acts 1:8 says that "...and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth." This is a movement that is coming with uncommon grace been manifested.

It is an ALIGNED Church 

In the past the Church missed the rhythm of divine parade. She marched on the strength of human knowledge and powered by godless principles. A Church full of religion and not of God. Ministers and people of God who have shifted out of alignment. The EMERGING Church is coming to rebuild according to pattern. Exodus 25:40 says "And see thou and do them by their pattern which thou art shewn in the mount." (Young's Literal Translation).

The EMERGING Church is one of The SPIRIT

Joel 2:28-29 says that "And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions: And also upon the servants and upon the handmaids in those days will I pour out my spirit."
There is an unprecedented and spontaneous Spirit breakout that will flood the earth again. The uniqueness of this is that everyone will be full of the Holy Spirit. It won't be only the five fold ministry that will be filled with God in unusual level. The cooperate Church and the Pastors will just oversee this.


It is a Church of FIRE AND ON FIRE 

Matthew 3:11-12 says that "I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance: but he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire: Whose fan is in his hand, and he will throughly purge his floor, and gather his wheat into the garner; but he will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire."

Fire is one of the products of heaven that comes on a hungry, thirsty and waiting generation. Fire always erupts and flows down from the throne of YAWEH upon men when a genuine God-man connection is established (Acts 2:1-4). The EMERGING Church is one that is full of the fire of God. 

It is an APOSTOLIC Church 

A Church without walls is breaking out. A Church that will flow and not be stalled. The dam in the spirit is full and the dike is breaking because of the flood that is coming; the river banks will be over flooded it will break into homes, streets, systems and conver people with the fire of God.

Acts 8:1 "And Saul was consenting unto his death. And at that time there was a great persecution against the church which was at Jerusalem; and they were all scattered abroad throughout the regions of Judaea and Samaria, except the apostles."

Acts 11:19 "Now they which were scattered abroad upon the persecution that arose about Stephen travelled as far as Phenice, and Cyprus, and Antioch, preaching the word to none but unto the Jews only."
The Apostolic Church is a sending Church and not a keeping or holding Church. It is a spreading Church. Territories and continents needs to be preached to, the return of our Lord and King is here.

It is a Church of much MULTITUDES

Isaiah 2:2 tells us that "In the last days, the mountain of the Lord‘s house shall be established in the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow unto it."
Nations, multitudes will gather and flow into this EMERGING Church. There is a compelling anointing that will literally drag NATIONS and MULTITUDES to God. The barrier is breaking. Godless Nations will arise who would want to stop this move but the fire underneath can not be stopped nor quenched. Many will be put into cell's and prisons because of this but it will only trigger more and more of the flood of the Spirit.
Churches, commisions and ministries that have been faithful with God and with the mini crowds are about to burst into tens of thousands. It is the Great Awakening: A fierce revival is come.
