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 order to profit from the systems of the Spirit. The kingdom of God is within you as soon as you become 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 the spiritual nursery when you lack understanding of the mysteries of the Kingdom.

There are several watches of the day, and several events take place within these watches. One of those events, according to Scripture, was the evening sacrifice, which takes place at the ninth hour.

But what is an evening sacrifice?

In ancient times in Israel, every morning, at about 9 a.m., 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 3 p.m., 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 during 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, "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, no sacrifice," he is the mobile temple of God and so he won't be restricted by a physical building in order to give unto God sacrifice.

Here are some powerful examples of events related to 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 the 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, where 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 I 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 heaven's response.

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 in 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 they engaged the evening sacrifice.

Peter and John afterward 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.

THINGS THAT SHOULD FOLLOW YOU

WINNING WITH DR. JOEL DABBAS

THINGS THAT SHOULD FOLLOW YOU

Nevertheless my brethren that went up with me made the heart of the people melt: but I wholly followed the Lord my God | Joshua 14:8 

Life is full of mysteries, one of which is that there are possibilities that unseen things go after men. This is mind boggling to note. From Scripture we see that the life of a man can be kept under surveillance. Like it was in the days of Job, the devil kept his family, his business and his life under surveillance, lurking around him constantly seeking for ways to hack him down. This was totally unknown to Job as a person (Job 1:1-9)

There are agents in the spirit that follow people. For instance in Deuteronomy 28:45 Scripture states that "Moreover all these curses shall come upon thee, and shall pursue thee, and overtake thee, till thou be destroyed; because thou hearkenedst not unto the voice of the Lord thy God, to keep his commandments and his statutes which he commanded thee."

From this Scripture it is evident that it is possible that an agent called curses can follow after a man, a race and even a whole nation. 

Quite recently, i saw a lady and the Holy Spirit by mercy opened my eyes to see that upon her in the realm of the spirit was written ritual. I was amazed at this sight. I told her, she began to cry and told me how it was discovered that her fiance was planning to kill her for ritual. Men can carry labels in the spirit that is visible to entities and agencies of the spirit and hence will begin to attract them. There are people that bad luck follow there are those that good luck follows. There are people that favour follows and there are people disfavour follow.

Light from Scriptures can help you enforce what should follow after you and dispel from your life whatever that is not of God; that is jostling to follow you.

From Scriptures it is confimed that the following are permited ti follow you:

💡Goodness and mercies (Ps. 23:6)

Goodness is the capacity to experience good and mercy is Gods power that gives victory over judgement.

💡Signs and wonders (Mark 16:17;20)

Signs and wonders are undeniable evidence of the hand of God at work in the life of a person.

Wonder is the quality of been amazing. It is a realm beyond this realm. It is a dimension that beats imagination. It is to dispense the supernatural naturally.

💡Blessings (Deut 28:2)

The blessing is supernaural empowernment to succeed. The blessing is a compeler of favour

💡Divine presence (Ex. 33:14)

If there is anything to lack in life not the presence of God

I prophesy that no evil can come after your life. No diabolic arrow can come after you.
I decree every yoke of repeated heartbreak, disfavour and failure is destroyed.
Favour is coming after you now in Jesus name.

Walk with the consciousness that what follow others is not what is following you.

Remember, that goodness, mercies, blessings, Divine presence, signs and wonders are following you.

UNCTION TO KNOW

UNCTION TO KNOW

SCRIPTURE: But ye have an unction from the Holy One, and ye know all things |1 John 2:20.

When it comes to the term the anointing many believers hold diverse understanding of it. This knowlege is what drives their expectations and realities. It is what also fuels what they do about the anointing. For instance for some believers the anointing is the oil full of mysteries. For another it is like a charm with mystical value. They see the anointing as a commodity and so loose the essence and power of the anointing. 

The anointing is a presence within and upon a man that communicates the essence of God and initiates the influence of God in and through a man or a vessel (Acts 10:38; Acts 19:11-12). It is the presence of the Holy Spirit in a person (Acts 10:38).

When you became or become born again,  you’ve received or will receive the Holy Spirit, His grace comes on your life; there’s an “unction” on you. The word, “unction” is the same as the anointing. 

One of the secret code and mystery to how the anointing functiins to bring unimaginable  result is by revelation. You need to know this because i have seen many believers go for anointing services and have been taught about the anointing and they think the anointing should work like a super charm. Beloved! No!! There is a strategy, a working principle and modus of operandi that anointing implores to get us life changing, soul lifting and supernatural manifestations and one of that mystery is teaching.

 1 John 2:27 says, “But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him.” This means that to profit from the anointing, you must be willing to submit to the Holy Spirit to teach you. Many miss out of the supernatural by an inch because they are not sensitive to the teachings the Holy Spirit is giving to them on their inside. This gives you insight, understanding and wisdom. Whatever the problem you’re faced with as a child of God, be it financial or in your job, health, family—whatever it may be—the Holy Spirit can teach you what to do. If you’d listen to Him in your heart, you’ll hear His voice! You’ll hear Him tell you what to do. 

When a man is not taught he remains a victim of ignorance. It is an aberration to be born of God and you are walking in darkness or confusion in life. You should never be at crossroads or dead end in life. You must be able to make the right choices and investments in life, because you have a “Teacher” inside of you, who has sanctified your mind to think excellently so you can make quality and intelligent decisions.

Jesus taught us this before He left this earth in John 14:26: “But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.” By the Holy Spirit you have the capacity to function in the wisdom of God. By the Holy Spirit, you know how to run your family without crashing into a divorce, you know how to do your job excellently and garner ecomiuns and rise effortlessly through the ranks. By the Holy Spirit you will know how to run that business and turn it into a world class business. By the Holy Spirit you receive strategy for your finance , academics, relationships and everything you need to know about life and godliness. 

Place your mind on default setting to be  conscious of the fact that you’re not an ordinary person. You’re blessed and anointed of God, with insight into the mysteries and secrets of life.

REMEMBER, you have an unction to know inside of you. Glory!!!

PRAYER

Father, thank You for Your wisdom that is manifesting in me. I receive a teachable heart to depend on Your teaching alone in Jesus name.

Read this "And I WILL rebuke the devourer for YOUR SAKES, and he shall not destroy the fruits of your ground; neither shall your vine cast her fruit before the time in the field, saith the LORD of hosts." (Malachi 3:11 KJV)

POWERFUL!!!
God says because of me and you He will rebuke the devourer. 

But what is so special about me and you that God is on the look out for us?

1. We are members of His Body, His Flesh and of His Bones

There are things you do because you are family with someone. You are part of God so He will be on the look out for you

PROPHETIC DECREE: I curse every generational devourer from your life now in Jesus name

THE PROPHETIC WOMAN

THE PROPHETIC WOMAN

By Shekinah Dabbas

One of the definations of prophecy is the capacity to reveal the future. A woman is a prophetic vessel because through her a future is birthed.

Not every woman knows this and so the waster works through them cheaply.

A woman must be prophetic, there were several children that were killed in Egypt but in Hebrews 11:23, "the woman saw that Moses was a proper child."  She had the capacity to see. Not the sight sponsored by biology but the eyesight of the spirit through which one can decipher the scripts and the intentions of Yaweh. It is the ability to know Gods agenda for a thing or in a thing.

If you don’t see that the child you are carrying is a proper child, you will abort it.

Many have aborted presidents, dumped inventors in waste bins to waste because they lacked capacity to discern the destinies God has given to them. Some ladies have become prostitutes because they do not see the agenda of God upon their lives.

Let's look at the prophetic dimension of a woman:

First, after the fall of man God by prophecy declared that the woman will birth a new era (Genesis 2:15). God seems to be saying here that although she (the woman) fell, there is a prophetic identity that she has that must be preserved; and it is in her seed. The prophecy on that seed is that "...and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel." 

Maybe you are reading this post now and it seems that, you have made grave mistakes and your prophetic destiny and assingment has been under siege. Today, by mercy begin to relieve your prophecies. Let the bowels of your spirit begin to birth those prophetic seeds in Jesus name.

Secondly, in Judges 13 we read of a woman who recieved the prophecy of the next seed that was coming and the instructions for that child. Same was the story of Rebecca she enquired of the Lord and downloaded the prophecies upon Jacob and Esau. Don't be a woman who does not know the next dimension or move of God. Position yourself to flow in it, and be prepared to preserve its manifestation.

Finally, women are carriers of prophetic destinies. Elizabeth and Mary carried power loaded seeds; they were world changers. Beware of who you are daughter of God and reveal who God has made you to be.

Shalom.

TOPIC: FROM CONVERGENCE TO EMMERGENCE

By Dr. Joel Dabbas

In Acts 1:12-14 Scripture stated that
"Then returned they unto Jerusalem from the mount called Olivet, which is from Jerusalem a sabbath day's journey.
And when they were come in, they went up into an upper room, where abode both Peter, and James, and John, and Andrew, Philip, and Thomas, Bartholomew, and Matthew, James the son of Alphaeus, and Simon Zelotes, and Judas the brother of James.
These all continued with one accord in prayer and supplication, with the women, and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brethren."

And in Acts 2:1-2 "And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place.
And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting."

They converged to incubate and hatched out:
1.The Church
2. Men on fire
3. Fearless men
4. Kingdom pursuer
5. Men full of the Holy Spirit
6. Men full of power

Our meetings must be avenues for convergence and emergence of these kinds of men.
It must be a platform for the rise of firerized men
It must be were convictions are birthed
A place where men will pray and talk to God
A place for empowerment
