Locked In To Worship!
Locked In To Worship!
My Bishop, Spiritual Father, Bishop Hezekiah Pressley Jr., spoke into us a word that has freed us from remaining the same. He has given us orders to seek, and it will be found. He has blessed us to know that we are not in this alone! Bishop Pressley stated that “We Are Too Close Not To Get It!”
Therefore, I am addressing New Directions Church Ministries, from this day forward we will honor our Bishop, we will adhere to his directions and instructions, and move forward as God gives me utterance. What Bishop Pressley spoke into me last night, has reassured my FREEDOM! I Am Free!
Where the Spirit Of The Lord Is There Is Liberty - No longer bound, no longer concerned about who leaves, or who stays; no longer concern about the money, that is not an issue for New Direction Church Ministries - We are forging forward in The Holiness Of God! We are connected to the True Vine, and you have as your Pastor, a Man after God’s Own Heart!
Bishop Pressley has spoken, The Lord has sent The Word thru him and I believe it, I receive it, and I decree this day that 2022, will be New Directions Church Ministries year of a Miracle Harvest! We will have those things that God has ordained for us, we will see increase like none other, prepare the way of God now, for this coming year, we are going to be busy for God!
We must remain “Locked In!” now, more than ever before, and to remain “Locked In,” you must loosen you from some of the thoughts that are binding you up!
There are some thoughts that you need to free you from, because they are causing you to be stressed, depressed, distraught, confused, angry, anxious, disappointed, worried, just flat out dejected. . .
There are some attitudes you need to be free from - They are causing you to be realized as less than who God called you to be!
Some of us become so offended just because someone asks us a question, we think they are questioning our position, decision, thinking, love, and genuineness.
Flex Your Freedom and release yourself from those presumptuous spirits!
There are some people you need to be free from!
Going into this new year we must not allow distracting connections to remain connected to us!
You need to connect to people who are pushing you into the Way Of God, not the way of the world!
I don’t care what they say, you know the truth, you have been made free because of the truth, do not remain bound up because of their truths, Flex Your Freedom and Worship God!
1 Thessalonians 5:3 For when they say, “Peace and safety!” then sudden destruction comes upon them, as labor pains upon a pregnant woman. And they shall not escape.
The Roman Empire would use this phrase in their propaganda to promote a false presence of Peace and Safety! Why a false presence, because it was their idea of peace and safety and they knew the citizens trusted them to preserve and keep them, so they trusted what the Romans promoted.
The enemy wants to promote his agenda to you so that you will live in a false sense. . . he cannot do what God has already done - Jesus says; John 14:27 Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.
The Peace and Safety that Jesus Christ speaks of, is never ending; it is not burdensome, therefore, the freedom that you experience in the peace and safety of God is refreshing and powerful - the worlds peace comes with frustration and conditions that are too heavy and will weigh you down -
Jesus Christ did not put unbearable conditions on His Peace and Safety, you are Free Indeed!
There are legalistic mindsets you need to be freed from
28 For it seemed good to the Holy Spirit, and to us, to lay upon you no greater burden than these necessary things: 29 that you abstain from things offered to idols, from blood, from things strangled, and from sexual immorality. If you keep yourselves from these, you will do well. Farewell.
Paul and Silas gain great notoriety because of their genuine Spirit to adhere to the will of God regardless the oppression!
Paul and Silas were locked in to the way of God! They realized their freedom and flexed it; it did not matter what those whom were negative had to say, their mission was to proclaim The Word of God so that others could realize They Too Are Free To Flex Their Freedom!
Some of us are so ingrained with it having to be a certain way or it is not of God; Paul and Barnabas were delivering people, Gentiles were believing, but yet those Jews were still warped with religion; saying that they needed to be circumcised!
Why placed a yoke upon yourself that you are not even able to bear?
Jesus Christ is the Yoke Destroyer, The Holy Spirit keeps you free, so why be entangled with that again?
Flex Your Freedom and Worship The Lord!
Worship Moves God! Worship changes God’s Mind! Lydia heard Paul and Silas, a woman of wealth, but she is a Worshiper!
You Flex Your Freedom by Worshiping regardless of the opposition!
Paul were on a mission, full of The Holy Spirit, wanting to take the Word wherever, but The Holy Spirit did not permit them to go certain places they desired to go!
Acts 16:1-10
37 But Paul said to them, “They have beaten us openly, uncondemned Romans, and have thrown us into prison. And now do they put us out secretly? No indeed! Let them come themselves and get us out.”
