To the degree you embrace your disease to that same degree it will embrace you and possibly kill you.
To the same degree you embrace Christ's healing for you to that same degree your body will move toward healing. Holy Ghost Prescription Isaiah 53:5, Psalm 103:1-5 becomes the Holy Ghost prescription taken daily. Confessed out loud His word can cause your recovery from any disease. Decree these scriptures 10-15 times over your sickness or disease. Forsake the Role of the Victim A victim's mentality, confessing the disease, telling others for sympathy is not your confession. Don’t rehearse your problem but rehearse His word. Get mean against sickness and disease. Hate it! Hate what God hates and love what God loves. God hates sickness and disease but loves wholeness and life. Death and Life are in the power of the tongue, and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof. Proverbs 18:21 Choose Your Family If the disease runs in your family realize that you are now a son of God. Move into the family of God. Decree, "I am no longer in the bloodline of sin and disease, generational sin and curse, Christ bore that for me at Calvary." Say aloud, "I now have the DNA of Christ flowing through my body." Take Communion Take communion every day. Do this in remembrance of Jesus Christ. Communion can bring you into a place of healing. I have a pastor friend who 10 years ago was diagnosed with lymphoma and given 6 months to live. He began to take communion daily as he watched the movie, “The Passion of Christ” as they nailed Jesus to the cross. God healed my friend through taking communion. Forgive Forgiveness has the authority to heal. Some of you, not all, are held in the bondage of sickness and disease because of unforgiveness. Forgiveness is not an emotion but is an act of the will that changes emotion and unlocks healing. About 5 years I saw a 30 yr. old man who could only move around by a walker, immediately healed of rheumatoid arthritis when he forgave his dad. His disease was caused by unforgiveness, but FORGIVENESS set him free. That night he began to walk, run and jump. His wife pushed the walker out of the church as he freely walked. Praise God From Whom All Blessings Flow. Healing is yours, press into it today. It's always God's will to heal the sick and diseased. Jesus bore stripes on His back for your healing. Isaiah 53:5

2017: A Year of Victory
Personal Prayer Points by Ken Malone
Ken Malone
When the Lord spoke to me in August 2016 about the things that will begin to take place in October 2016, He said, “There is an October Surprise.” I didn’t know whether it would be good or bad. What we have to remember about a SURPRISE is that it is always a disclosure of things that have been hidden. The October Surprise is just beginning. As it turns out it’s not just one surprise but many surprises. Below are bullet points on some good things He said would begin at Rosh Hashanah, October 2, 2016. Realignment of Relationships The winds of apostolic change is blowing across the land and realigning you. The Lord is ready to re-position you for His Kingdom harvest. Some who have been with you in the past can't go to the place God is taking you. Be willing to cut unhealthy soul ties and move forward into an ordained destiny. At Rosh Hashanah (begins Oct 2) the Lord will unlock brand new doors of destiny for you. Let go of your baggage. It can't go to the new place the Lord has for your destiny. Realignment of Assignment Jesus said, if it's not bearing fruit cut it off. There is a realignment of assignment that is coming to you. Take inventory of what your ministry is doing. Is it bearing fruit? If it's not bearing fruit, it's time to move on. Leave it. As we come into Rosh Hashanah (Oct. 2) the Lord is going to impart new assignments. With these new assignments will come another level of authority to accomplish His plan in the earth. Make sure that you discard old baggage and get out of baggage claim. Stop rehearsing your trauma and drama. A new, unusual and exciting assignment is coming your way. Realignment of Vision The Holy Spirit continues to send apostolic winds realigning your vision. How do you see? Do you see God bring a great greater awakening (National Revival) into the earth or do you see it having no hope? Do you see the way heaven sees? Heaven sees in seven dimensions and heaven responds to what it sees. (See Zechariah 4:10 and Revelation 5:6). Align your vision with heaven and you will begin to receive heavenly results. Doomsday preachers offer little to no hope. It's because man is reacting to what he sees in the earth rather than responding to the vision of heaven. There is hope if you begin seeing the way heaven sees. At Rosh Hashanah (Oct 2) the Lord will impart new vision. His vision will release Heaven into earth. Will you respond or react? Prune your negative mindset that has no faith and begin responding in faith to Christ's vision. A new vision awaits you! Realignment of Identity Holy Spirit continues to send you apostolic winds to realign you for His kingdom purpose. These winds are here to challenge your identity. Some today have a false identity and can't find their way. Those in LGBTQ community struggle with having a true identification. Some within the Church have found their identity in pastors, programs, function and ministry. The co-dependency between ministers and sheep has created identification dysfunction. You're so busy with things you haven't found the "One Thing". (Psalm 27:4) Your distinction can only be found in Christ. Realignment of your identity is essential in order for you to fulfill His destiny in your life. At Rosh Hashanah (Oct 2) a huge reset will take place. Be ready, forsake your former identity and go after Him and you will be found in Him. (Philippians 3:9). As you go after Him you will take on His character. In Him I live and move, and have my being. (Acts 17:28) Realignment of Paradigms The winds of apostolic change continue to blow in your life. These winds are blowing against the paradigms that keep you from moving forward into your God inheritance. Think differently! When John the Baptist and Jesus said, “Repent for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand,” they were saying, Think Differently because the Kingdom of Heaven is here. At Rosh Hashanah (Oct 2), watch as paradigm shifts begin to take place. Think differently-Heaven will open up over you and your inheritance will begin to come in. (Repent, greek word, metanoia-means to think differently.) Ken Malone
For generations the focus within the four walls of the church has been on one person’s vision. That person was the one in the pulpit. Their vision was exalted above everyone else’s vision. The congregation existed to serve the vision of the head. I have heard many, many times during my years when leading a church, “You can only have one vision. If you have two visions you have division or if there are two heads or two visions, then you have a monster.” These words, which by the way, I also used, back in the day. Some leaders speak them to control the congregation into serving their vision only. Many within the church have been given a vision by the Lord. The vision that they have is one part of a divine plan to see Christ’s kingdom on display in the earth. What if everyone in the church was doing their God given dream? What would happen in your city if each believer was accomplishing the vision the Lord gave them? I recently heard Apostle Barbara Yoder say, “The local church model gathers the community for a Sunday morning service. We have gauged success by how many we can gather. However the Apostolic Center model sends the believer into the community.” What a vast difference. The Apostolic Center model EMPOWERS the believer and sends them out to do the work of the ministry. Prophetic Word In 1999 I prophesied to two ladies who lived in the Abaco Bahamas. The prophetic word was they were to go into their city and heal the sick, cast out devils and save the lost. This was a Matthew 10 commission. They received this word from the Lord and launched into their community. Many were being healed, saved and touched by the Lord. After great success for a couple of weeks their pastor called me. “What have you done?” He said. “You prophesied to these women and they’re going out into the town and praying for people.” I said, “Yes, That’s so awesome!” (That didn’t help.) He said, “No, they were not authorized by me to do that.” I responded, “You’re kidding me.” “No, he replied. They need my permission to go out and do this kind of ministry.” I said, “I would think you would be happy that they are going into the community and doing this? They are doing what Jesus called them to do.” Needless to say he and I never did see eye to eye on this. However this was the dream the Lord put in their heart but now the dream was being controlled and snuffed out by the insecurity of a church leader. By the way, these two ladies were solid believers with a strong foundation. In this story the mentality of the pastor was a slave owners mentality-his thinking was not kingdom of God but control. Not all pastors think this way. Many today are empowering the saints to do the work of ministry. All Believers Jesus gave the commission for the work of the ministry to ALL believers, not a select few. Matthew 28:19, Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I commanded you… This is written to all believers. Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation. And these signs will accompany those who have believed…Mark 16:15 & 17 Ephesians 4:11-12 tells us, And He gave some as apostles, and some as prophets, and some as evangelists and some as pastors and teachers, For the equipping of the saints for the work of service; to the building up of the body of Christ. For This Purpose This is what Jesus said to Saul/Paul during His conversion on his journey to Damascus. But arise and stand upon your feet; for I have appeared to you for this purpose, that I might appoint you to serve as [My] minister and to bear witness both to what you have seen of Me and to that in which I will appear to you, choosing you out [selecting you for Myself] and delivering you from among this [Jewish] people and the Gentiles to whom I am sending you—To open their eyes that they may turn from darkness to light and from the power of Satan to God, so that they may thus receive forgiveness and release from their sins and a place and portion among those who are consecrated and purified by faith in Me. Acts 26:16-18 AMP Do Not Delay—Decide today to step into your purpose. What if? What if the one in the pulpit, the leader was to train and empower the vision of each person in the congregation? What would happen if there was an empowerment to do the works of Jesus? If the church leader empowers the congregation then the Ekklesia will begin doing the work of the ministry as defined in Ephesians 4:12. When the commission of a dream occurs (see Matthew 10) tremendous authority moves into the life of the believer to achieve Christ’s purpose in the earth. If we empower everyone in the body of Christ our cities, states, and nation will be impacted and we will see cities transformed, lives saved and many works of Christ done. It’s Time To Dream Again For many believers their dream of ministry has died in the tomb of hope deferred, or trampled by insecure leaders and other believers, who did not encourage them to pursue their destiny or crushed by the trials of this life. However your story is not over. God wants you to get into His storyline of redemption that will see the prodigal come home and a lost world saved. Dutch Sheets conveys a message of dreaming again in his book ‘Tell Your Heart to Beat Again” that should encourage you to live again. “During an open-heart surgery that my brother, Tim, was allowed to witness, the patient’s heart had been stopped from beating. However when it came time to restart it, despite repeated attempts, the medical staff was unable to get the heart to beat again. Finally, although the patient was obviously unconscious, the surgeon leaned over and said into the patient’s ear, “We need your help. We cannot get your heart going. Tell your heart to start beating.” Immediately, as incredible as it sounds, the patient’s heart began to beat again.” It’s time for your heart to beat again for the work of ministry the Lord has called you too. Are you ready? Are you ready to take the risk required to see a God-given dream resurrected? God believes in you. He put His dream within you. He is chasing you today to fulfill His destiny in your life. Begin to declare today, That He is my hope, He is my life and He is my source. Tell you heart to beat again. Apostolic Fathers Malachi prophesied of a day of empowerment. And he will restore the hearts of the fathers to their children, and the hearts of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the land with a curse. Malachi 4:6 The whole purpose of spiritual fathers is to see their son and daughter excel even beyond themselves. They prophesy, push, correct, call forth, affirm, empower and declare a sons and daughters God-given destiny. True sons and daughters are not offended by the correction of their fathers; very actually embrace it. Real fathers do not cover or control. They come along side, and align themselves with their children and their children align with their fathers. Covering is not a biblical term, but that’s a message for another day. By the way—the term father is gender neutral. This applies to both men and women. I’m just reading it like the Lord put it in his word. There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free man, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus. Galatians 3:28 If I can be a bride you can be a father. In my early years of ministry, I longed for a spiritual father to come along side to guide, correct and affirm what God had called me too. I was a son without a father. I asked several leaders to come alongside me but this was a foreign paradigm to them. The apostolic fathers of today are empowering the believer to do the work of the ministry. They train, empower, tell you what you are doing right and tell you how it went wrong. They do not do the ministry for you nor give you a platform. (A man’s gift makes room for him, and brings him before great men. Proverbs 18:16) This empowerment will launch you into your destiny and help fulfill His life in you. As you are connecting with many leaders in the body of Christ be sure that you connect with apostolic fathers. They will push you into your God-given dream and call forth your destiny. My prayer for you today is that if you are not aligned with an apostolic father, that God would send that alignment to you. Ken Malone
The role model the Lord left us for the church is found in the book of Acts. He didn’t leave any other model. Today our congregation life is filled with programs and clutter that remove us from being anything but a book of Acts people. Trademark: A distinctive feature or characteristic that serves to identify the maker or originator. Wow, what a definition. Now let’s look at some of the characteristics that identify our Maker. Outpouring of His Spirit Acts 2 released the promise of Joel that His Spirit would be poured out on all. It is God living in us and among us. He puts His life inside us and through that life we converse and have relationship with the Father-Son-Holy Ghost. And it shall be in the last days, God says, “That I will pour forth of My Spirit upon all mankind. Acts 2:17 God loves relationship. How are you relating to Him? Begin again to talk to God and read His word. His life will ignite within you. Signs, Wonders, Miracles and Healing At the gate Beautiful a man who was lame from His mother’s womb was miraculously healed. This marked the beginning of miracles through the hands of the apostles. It is a trademark left to us so that we would also operate in the miracle working ministry of Christ. Miracles are the marks of a New Testament Apostolic Church. The signs of a true apostle were performed among you with all perseverance, by signs and wonders and miracles. 2 Cor. 12:12 Dreams, Visions and the Prophetic Do you dream with the Lord? Did you know the Lord dreams? He releases His dreams, visions and prophetic word to his people. I have spent most of my life going after the voice of the Lord. Even to this day I long to hear Him speak. Acts 2 marks us as a people, when filled with the Holy Ghost will have visions, dreams and prophetic words. And your sons and daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions and your old men shall dream dreams…Acts 2:17 I was sharing a dream with Lou Engle and he said to me, “Follow the Dream, Follow the Dream.” That’s the way the book of Acts church operated. Not through programs but through Dreams, Visions and the Prophetic Word. Dream Again! Ask the Lord to give you His dreams, visions and prophetic word. (Note: True prophetic words, dreams and visions will be within the integrity of God’s written word.) Harvest This is a signpost to us. In Acts 2 the results of His Holy Spirit being poured out was 3000 souls coming to the Lord through believing in Him. It happened again in Acts 3 with the results of 5000 coming to the Lord through the Lord healing the man at the Beautiful Gate. Let’s raise the bar. This is the mark of revival. Several years ago a lady asked me to attend the revival meetings going on at their church for the last 30 days. I was interested in what was going on so I asked, “What’s happening?” She said, “Many are being blessed and touched by God.” Then I asked, “Any souls being saved?” She responded, “No.” They were being renewed, which we all need, but this is not what I call Awakening. Recently there have been thousands saved in Williamson, WV. This began a little over a month ago when a nameless faceless evangelist by the name of Matt Hartley from TN came into Williamson for a 3 day meeting but the meetings just kept going. Revival broke out however when the evangelist spoke in the school and thousands of students were saved. Pastor Mitch Bias, with the regional Church of God in Delbarton, said prayer, plus desperation, has paved the way for this spiritual breakthrough, especially among the young people. Now that’s the trademark I’m looking for. Let’s lead someone to Jesus, whether it’s 1 or 1000. It’s a sign of real revival. Ken Malone
January 3rd 2016 while in Jesup Georgia, I was in the Spirit and I began to see and hear awesome things for 2016. I hear the rattling of keys and the sounds of ancient locks being opened. I see strong angels opening doorways that have been shut for generations. I heard the Lord say, “Revelation 3:8 will be yours this year, a time that open doors will be set before you. Gates to ancient pathways are opening this year. This will be a year of KAIROS OPPORTUNITY.” I see open doors, doorways and gates forming by the first of Nissan, which is April 9th, 2016 on the Gregorian calendar. As I see these doors opening they are positioned in THE RIVER OF GOD. They are forming in HIS RIVER. These open doors are coming before you throughout 2016. The key to moving through these doors this year is to get into the RIVER OF GOD. If you get into His River you will not miss the doors. I know your deeds behold I have put before you and open door which no one can shut, because you have little power, and have kept My word and have not denied My name. Rev. 3:8 NASB Steward the Prophetic Word Many of God’s people miss their destiny because they do not steward the word that is given to them by Holy Spirit. They place it on a shelf of forgetfulness to collect dust. When that word makes it to that shelf it will never come to pass as long as it’s on the level of forgetfulness. Paul admonished Timothy to war with the prophetic words that were given to him. This command I entrust to you, Timothy, my son, in accordance with the prophecies previously made concerning you, that by them you may fight the good fight. 1 Timothy 1:18 NASB When you pray, worship the Lord, pray in tongues over the prophetic word given you it begins to set into motion everything that is necessary to see that word come to pass. It will come to pass quicker if you war over your word. Begin to do this over this Revelation 3:8 word and you will see results by April 9th. On Jan. 15th a lady that I don’t even know walked up to me and said, “This is going to be an amazing year for you and your family.” She then walked away. I’m ready Lord. Bring on these OPEN DOORS. Watch for these doorways to open. When you see them, move quickly through them. Doorways of: The Supernatural—You, the Church, are about to move into a supernatural realm. Things that you were not able to accomplish in previous seasons will be accomplished through the supernatural work of Holy Spirit. Miracles and Healings—Doorways of miracles and healings are opening as we speak. Many will see physical miracles and healings in their life this year. Those of you in the healing ministry will see powerful miracles and healings. The Healing Room movement will see an increase of Christ’s power. Recovery—Gateways of Recovery are open now to those who will step into The River. This is a year to Pursue, Overtake, Without Fail RECOVER ALL. (1 Samuel 30:8) Provision—A doorway of abundant supply is opening now. Get ready for the tide to turn. His supply is coming to you. And God is able to make all grace abound to you, so that always having all sufficiency in everything, you may have an abundance for every good deed. 2 Corinthians 9:8 Reconciliation—the Lord showed me that doorways of reconciliation are open now. I hoped you didn’t burn bridges, but even if you did God is able to re-build your relationships with others. I also see doorways of the Lord reconciling the backsliden. Many prodicals will be coming home this year. Get ready, pray, pray, pray for your sons and daughters to return to the Lord. Ken Malone
The Gates Must Be Secured! While in Middletown OH, Chuck Pierce prophesied that we must go through and secure The Gates. When I heard him say this it resonated in my spirit that the church must secure The Gates from city to city and state to state. It must happen by the end of 2016. The Lord then began to download a strategy to me in order to help you and I secure these gates. Gates Defined—In the Old Testament gates were entrances used to enter and exit the city. The gates had to be strong and large. Each gate had a specific purpose. Elders of a city ruled and made judgements in the gates of a city. So these gates became places of authority and today represents authority within a city. Spiritual Gates—There are also spiritual gates within a region. In Genesis Jacob had a dream in which he saw angels ascending and descending from heaven to earth. The Lord spoke to him in this gate and when Jacob awoke he said, “This is none other than the house of God, and this is The Gate of heaven.” Genesis 28:17 Possessing the Gates—From the time of Abraham the Lord has wanted his people to possess the gates. It’s very important; because whoever possesses the gates controls the dynamics of a region. That control can bring in a move of God or it can shut down the heavens depending on who possesses the gates. If the church of a city possesses the spiritual gates, they can then usher in revival. The Lord left Abraham a prophetic promise about The Gates. And your seed shall possess the gate of their enemies. Genesis 22:17 That promise extends to us as well. And if you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham’s offspring, heirs according to the promise. Galatians 3:29 Upon this rock I will build my church (Ekklesia-governing body); and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. Matthew 16:18 Where are the gates in your region?—Look where the land was occupied in the beginning. Many of these gates are found where the Native tribes lived and worshipped. Also where the first settlers from Europe came in and lived are also gates within a region. Examples of these are St Augustine, Pensacola, Jamestown, etc. Also look where there have been previous moves of God because these are gates also. A few examples of this is, Cain Ridge KY, Red River Meeting House KY, Azusa Street CA, Topeka KS, Pensacola FL, etc. In 2003 the Lord had Cheryl and I travel U.S. Hwy 1 from Key West to the Georgia line to proclaim Leviticus 25:10. Proclaim Liberty throughout the land and unto all the inhabitants thereof. We called it the U.S. 1 Liberty Prayer Tour. U.S. 1 represents His highway of holiness in America and extends from Key West FL to Fort Kent Maine at the Canadian border. It is a gate in this nation. Who possesses The Gates in your city?—The Ekklesia in most cities have never thought of possessing the gates. However the spirit in control of these gates rules in your city or region. In most cities a jezebel/political/religious spirit controls the gates within a region. Where this is the case you can usually see manipulation and control being exercised through the leadership within society and the church. Intimidation, slander, gossip, rejection of the apostolic and prophetic gifts, depression, discouragement, eunuchs, sexual immorality, disunity, drug abuse and suicide are some of the manifestations of this jezebel/political/religious spirit. Toleration—Revelation 2:18-29—When Jesus addressed the evil spirit jezebel in the church of Thyatira he said, I have this against you that you tolerate the woman jezebel. This spirit was operating through a woman named jezebel. The Lord said this about her. She calls herself a prophetess, teaches and leads my bond servants astray, they commit acts of immorality and eat things sacrificed to idols. She is unrepentant. The homosexual agenda is manifest through this evil spirit—jezebel. The operation of this spirit releases a false prophetic. Tolerate is the greek word, eao. It means to leave alone or let alone. The church has left this spirit alone for the sake of peace. When Jehu arrived to take down jezebel, she asked him; “Is it peace Zimri?” She wanted him to make peace with her. Jehu said to the eunuchs, throw her down. Jehu was not going to tolerate this spirit operating in Israel any longer. Will you tolerate this evil demon in your region? The time is now.—Let’s take this strategy to The Gates of your city. Strategy to Displace jezebel in The Gates of Your City. Praise and Worship—Taking the worship team to the gates will open the heavens to the Lord. Enter into His gate with thanksgiving and into His courts with praise: be thankful unto Him and bless His name. Psalm 100:4 Code Talk—Pray in Tongues In WWII the Japanese could never decode the language of the Navajo. These Navajo Marines became known as the code talkers. When you code talk, (pray in unknown tongues) the enemy is not able to decode your message to the Lord. 1 Corinthians 14:2 says that when a man prays in an unknown tongue he prays to God. Building yourself up on your most holy faith praying in the Holy Spirit. Jude 20 Prophesy in the Gates—Find the prophetic words the Lord has spoken over your region and decree those at The Gates. Ezekiel 37:4 Prophesy over these bones, and say to them, O dry bones, hear the word of the Lord. Speak to your gates, speak to your city and say, hear the word of the Lord. It is written—When Jesus defeated the enemy in the wilderness he said, “It is written,” and then quoted the scripture. Holy Communion—Take communion at The Gates, then serve the land communion. Since I’ve been releasing the word about serving the land communion many have asked, “How do we do that?” Simply pour the wine or grape juice representing his blood into the ground and serve it in the name of Jesus. Then take the unleavened bread, representing his body and mix it into the juice or wine you just poured out. Do this, as often as you do in remembrance of Jesus. 1 Corinthians 11:23-26 Important! When you go to these gates do not bring accusations against jezebel. Take a look at Jude 9, But Michael the archangel, when he disputed with the devil and argued about the body of Moses, did not dare pronounce against him a railing judgment, but said, The Lord Rebuke You. Just recently a group of friends from Alabama, Florida and Georgia met where the three states connect and applied the above strategies at the gate where these states connect. They had to get permission from the landowner and walk for several hundred yards into the forest. Not only did they worship at these gates but they connected the three states in the spirit.

Recently a friend sent me an email and said, “We are under extreme warfare. The strategies that we used in years past are not working; do you have any strategy that can help us?” The warfare has changed and with that the strategy has to change. Code talkers In October 2015 we were with the Navajo in Gallup, NM. The Navajo were the code talkers in our war with Japan. The Japanese were able to de code all of the former codes that the U.S. was using. The U.S. Army was using strategies that Japan could de-cipher each time. Until Philip Johnson, the son of a missionary, who grew up on the Navajo reservation, thought of the Navajo language as a strategy for transmitting coded messages. It worked brilliantly. The Marines recruited the original 29 and then 400 Navajo for the purpose of communication. The Japanese were never able to decode the language of the Navajo. The Navajo with this new strategy helped in a big way to win the war. Let’s change strategies. We keep using the same war strategies over and over. You and I are not getting the same results we did 10-15 years ago. We must shift our tactics. When one group in Hemet, CA drives stakes in the ground and gets breakthrough results, we all then drive stakes in the ground. When the church in Manchester, KY marches through their city and a mighty awakening takes place we then begin to march. There is only one problem with this. They had the word of the Lord to march and drive stakes we did not. They had impacting results we didn’t. Shift Happens I want to share with you five simple but very effective warfare strategies for your spiritual war on both a personal and corporate level through Holy Spirit. This will work for you as an individual or you can apply these to your city, state or nation. Strategies to Overcome 1. Praise and Worship. This was one of the main weapons the Lord used in the Old Testament. Put it to use again. Praise and worship puts you into the presence of God. When you move into this arena of war you are warring from Christ’s Holy Presence. 2. Be a Code Talker-Pray in Tongues. Just like the Japanese could not decipher the Navajo code, praying in Holy Ghost puts you in direct communication with God. 2 Cor. 14:2. Building up yourself in the faith-pray in tongues. Jude 20 Recently a friend from Colorado sent me a text asking for prayer over their finances. As I began praying I heard the Lord say, “Tell them to pray in tongues.” They started praying in the code talk of heaven and within two days breakthrough came to their finances. Keep praying-BREAKTHROUGH IS ON THE WAY. 3. It is written. Jesus defeated satan by using what the Lord has written. Matthew 4:4; 4:7; 4:10 We should use this same tactic for defeating the enemy. Say to satan, it is written: By His Stripes I am Healed. Isaiah 53:5 4. Holy Communion. Believe it or not this strategy and weapon is a powerful tool in the hand of any believer. This act of relationship with the Lord brings healing, restoration and deliverance. Also serve communion to your land. It will cleanse you and the land. 5. Wait for the Sound of Heaven. When the philistines came out against David, he inquired of the Lord and the Lord said to go up. David defeated the philistines and sent them running. When the philistines came out a second time against him, He inquired of the Lord a second time about this matter. The Lord said, Wait until you hear the sound of marching in the Mulberry trees. Before you go up against the enemy inquire of the Lord, then wait until you hear the sound of heaven. Ken Malone
I do believe in is alignment and accountability. The bible teaches alignment. This is the concept of coming alongside but not over. Alignment is also a biblical word. It’s used several times in the New Testament. For the equipping of the saints for the work of service…Eph 4:12. This word equipping is katartizo in the greek and it means alignment or to put a thing in its proper position. The purpose of the five fold is to align you or position you for the work of the ministry. Alignment increases your authority to function in Christ’s kingdom. When aligned properly several truths emerge: Relationship abounds with those you are aligned with. Authority goes off the charts. Two are better than one because they have a good return for their labor. For if either of them fall, the one will lift up his companion. But woe to the one who falls when there is not another to lift him up. Furthermore, if two lie down together they keep warm, but how can one be warm alone? And if one can overpower him who is alone, two can resist him. A cord of three strands is not quickly torn apart. Ecclesiastes 4:9-12 Accountability sharpens our lives and keeps us out of error. Accountability is a biblical concept and much needed in the church today. Accountability produces sons and daughters. Lack of accountability produces Ishmaels in your life. Ishmael was the illegitimate son of Abraham. He was a son of the flesh not a son of promise. This son of the flesh came about because Abraham and Sarah refused to be accountable to God. (See Galatians 4:22-31) Accountability is voluntary. Accountability and the act of or lack of reveals the issues of our heart. Godly counsel from those we submit to can keep us moving forward in the Lord. I cherish the counsel I receive from those I submit to. They have brought into my life: prophetic words, direction, instruction, affirmation, Godly counsel, friendship and correction. Where no counsel is, the people fall; but in the multitude of counselors there is safety. Proverbs 11:14 KJV Without counsel purposes are disappointed; but in the multitude of counselors they are established. Ken Malone
As we contend for awakening most of what is taking place is within the local church arena. While there is nothing wrong with this view. It is really limited. God’s plan goes way beyond the church house and into the entire world. For God so loved the world. Our paradigm has primarily been that of local church only. When the word revival or awakening is mentioned our thoughts immediately go to a church service in which God is moving mightily or we see all the churches coming together as one big family with a sense of unity. Again there is nothing wrong with these views-however our view may be limited when these are our thoughts of awakening. Throughout scripture when awakening came, it impacted a region, a city or a nation. It was felt in the local church but its influence was felt far beyond the local church. When Jonah went into Nineveh and preached judgement and repentance-the king and the people of the city repented, turned to God and shifted the judgement that God had pronounced. Today that is called city transformation. Philip goes down into Samaria and preaches Jesus and great joy comes to the city. Look at Acts 8:6, the multitudes with one accord heeded the things spoken by Philip, hearing and seeing the miracles which he did. Verse 8 tells us, And there was great joy in that city. That is Cultural Transformation. In Acts 2 and 3 thousands came to the Lord. Acts 17:6 These who have turned the world upside down have come here too. The awakening of Acts shifted the world. Holy Ghost Awakening will go far beyond our paradigm and our church. It will impact cities, states and nations. Signs, wonders and miracles will be a regular part of awakening. It will also be marked by His Presence that will convict and draw multitudes to Christ. Much of this will take place in the marketplace, home, government and many others segments of our culture as well as within the church. The Awakening I see God bringing to this world will bring billions of souls into His kingdom. Laws will be amended, abortion will be the exception not the norm, business practices will alter, homosexuals and lesbians will turn to Jesus and away from their current lifestyle. Billions of sinners will turn to the Lord. Backsliders will return home to Christ. The culture as we know it will move into reformation because of the billions coming to Christ. Take another look at awakening through scripture and in history. Its effect was felt far beyond the pews. Full blown awakening will change the culture. As you pray, pray for awakening to come to your city, state and nation. Pray the Lord of the harvest to send forth laborers into the harvest fields. Matthew 9:37-38 |
