A GARDEN ENCLOSED

Scripture References: Song of Solomon 2-4

Ask the Lord to reveal the little foxes that are trying to crush the vine that will bring forth the new wine. Ask the Lord to send forth a new wind and blow upon you garden. Look for the gnats that are hindering you and blow them away by the Spirit. Stone walls ad hedges were usually built around a vineyard to protect the grapes from animals and thieves. (Jer. 49:9) Watchtowers were also built to provide further protection. Declare the new wine coming forth.
Get a vision of your true identity. Your true identity is in Christ and lies in your spirit. Know that your spirit man is a garden enclosed with the greatest of treasure. And out of your spirit flows living waters.
(Son 4:12-16) A locked garden is My sister, My spouse; a rock heap locked up, a fountain sealed. Your plants are an orchard of pomegranates, with pleasant fruits; with henna and spikenard spikenard and saffron; calamus and cinnamon, with all trees of frankincense; myrrh and aloes, with all the chief spices; a fountain of gardens, a well of living waters, and streams from Lebanon. Awake, O north wind; and come, south wind; blow on my garden, so that the spices of it may flow out. Let my Beloved come into His garden and eat His pleasant fruits.

Father, I thank you that in Christ, I am free from the spirit of slavery and I am adopted as Your son. I agree with You that I am Your child and Your heir according to Your promise. I pray for Your divine intervention in my life. Your will be done on earth (in my life) as it is in Heaven. I ask You to reveal Your glory in me. I receive freedom from Your Holy Spirit and ask You to transform me into Your likeness with ever increasing Glory. Let that Glory come out of my spirit.
I declare I shall:
remember all the blessings and faithfulness of You, God, with a thankful heart
be a good steward of everything You give me as You direct me
keep my eyes on Your face and not on Your hands
guard my heart with all diligence by being careful to protect my eye gate, ear gate, and heart gate
sow righteousness for myself that I may reap the fruit of unfailing love
seek You
extend mercy to myself and others and receive mercy for myself
sow righteousness and reap justice
eat of the fruit of the Tree of Life which is Jesus Christ
trust in Your Word, Your Ways, and Your Strength
be an overcomer through Your grace and take back dominion over the land and over all creation
I declare this is the time to be transformed into Your realms of Glory. I declare this is a new time, a new period, and a new season and new wine is flowing out of me. Amen.

NEW DAY, NEW SEASON

Scripture References: Hebrews 4, 12; (Php 3:13-14) My brothers, I do not count myself to have taken possession, but one thing I do, forgetting the things behind and reaching forward to the things before, I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.; 2 Corinthians 5:17, KJV Therefore if any man be IN CHRIST, he is a NEW CREATURE: OLD things are passed away; behold, all things are become NEW (kainos - fresh, unprecedented, unused, brand new; "the old has gone, the new has come!" - NIV).

Don’t live in the past. This leads only to regret, condemnation and bitterness. If you have repented, God’s grace washes away past sins and failings. Even the good things we bring as memorials to what God has done and what He will do in the future, exceedingly beyond what we can ask , think or imagine. Allow your past to be pruned away; instead of a being a bitter drink offering, you will become a sweet drink offering to the Lord.

As we leave the past behind and welcome the Holy Spirit’s ministry to bring a glorious newness to your soul. Open this day and these days with a full-hearted, special welcome to the Holy Spirit to flush, to fill and to flow through your heart with faith, hope and love.

Paul was adamant in Philippians 3 when he said, “This one thing I do (this was his great care and concern), forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth to those things which are before.” There is a sinful forgetting of past sins and past mercies, which ought to be remembered for the exercise of constant repentance and thankfulness to God. But Paul forgot the things which were behind so as not to be content with present measures of grace: he was still for having more and more. So he reaches forth, epekteinomenos—stretched himself forward. We are to do the same.

Father, in the name of Jesus, I enter into Your gates with thanksgiving and into Your courts with praise. I bless Your name. I thank You that I love and move and have my being in You; I command my morning and declare this is a new day. Today is a dawning of a new day in You. My season of frustration and failure is over, and I walk into a season of success and prosperity. Today, I press towards the mark o the high calling in Christ Jesus. I have a fresh excite, a fresh mind and a fresh new zeal. I have a fresh anointing that is uncompressed I possess a kingdom mentality which grant me new ways of thinking, new ways of working and new ways of living. New cycles of victory, success, and prosperity will replace old cycles of failure, poverty, and death in my life. I now have a new, refreshed, cutting- edge kingdom mindedness. The blessings of the Lord are upon me and make me rich and daily load me with benefits. Now to Him who is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, forever. Amen.

THE NEW COVENANT- MORE EXCELLENT WAY

Scripture References: The New Covenant. Jer. 31:31; Luke 22:20; 1 Cor. 11:25; 2 Cor. 3:6; Heb. 8:8,13; 9:15; 12:24

Jer. 31:31“Behold, the days are coming, says the LORD, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah—

Jer. 31:34--1. "I will put My law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts."
"I will give them an heart to know Me, that I am the Lord; and they shall be my people, and I will be their God; for they shall return unto Me with their whole heart" (Jer. xxiv. 7).
2. "And I will be their God, and they shall be My people."
3. "And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord, for they shall all know Me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the Lord."
4. For I will forgive their iniquities, and I will remember their sin no more."

COVENANT, NEW—the new agreement (or new testament) God has made with mankind, based on the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. The concept of a new covenant originated with the promise of the prophet Jeremiah that God would accomplish for His people what the old covenant had failed to do (Jer. 31:31). Under this new covenant, God would write His Law on human hearts. This promised action suggested a new potential for obedience, a new dimension of knowing the Lord, and a fully accomplished provision of forgiveness for sin. The redeeming work of Jesus Christ has brought the promised new covenant into being. In Luke 22:20, Jesus presented the cup as “the new covenant in My blood,” which understanding has continued in the church (1 Cor. 11:25). The Epistle to the Hebrews elaborates this. It quotes the entire “new covenant” passage from Jeremiah 31:31-34 (Heb. 8:8-12; also 10:16-17), and declares Jesus as “the Mediator of the new covenant” (Heb. 9:15; 12:24), a “better covenant…established on better promises” (Heb. 8:6).

The New Covenant “glory” exceeds everything of the Old, and we can be certain that God, in Christ, has made a complete provision for the well-being of our total person. The Lord has given us BOLDNESS and confidence founded upon our Covenantal rights as a believer. God does a work IN His people and then does a work THROUGH His people.

Call unto Him and watch Him do things you would not expect. Know that His covenant will stand. Make a demand on the better promises.

Father, I thank You that You have blessed us and given us New Covenant promises. We are complete in Christ and have been overtaken with blessings. You have forgiven all our sins and redeemed us by Your Blood, Jesus, saved us by Your Grace and sealed us with Holy Spirit of promise. We are a new creation in You everyday, the temple of the Holy Spirit, redeemed from the curse of the law. We are more than a conqueror and victorious every time through You. Show me acts of faith you want me to complete today. I am in eternal covenant with you. So, today, I press toward the mark of the high calling in Christ Jesus. Sufficient are Your provisions for today. Thank You, Lord. In Jesus name. Amen.

THE NEW THING

Scripture References: John 2, Matthew 9 & 14

Jeremiah 31:22 How long will you gad about, O you backsliding daughter? For the LORD has created a new thing in the earth—(Isa 43:19) Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall sprout; shall you not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, rivers in the desert.

Let the Lord change your water into new wine. Ask the Lord to remove the sprit of religion from you and let His Glory shine. Be willingly to let go of any old method that is operating in your life, business, church, etc. that is unproductive.

There are many analogies and parallels to the story of turning the water carrels into wine. Jesus began His public ministry at Cana, where He graced a wedding party with His presence and turned water into wine (John 2:1–11). The first miracle of Christ which was parallel to the first plague upon Egypt which turned all their water into blood. Miracles are manifestations of God’s glory, and are for His glory. When Jesus changes the water into wine at the wedding at Cana, John says, “This beginning of signs Jesus did in Cana of Galilee, and manifested His glory” (John 2:11).Every miracle is a manifestation of the glory of God.

In Jesus name, Father, I thank You that this is a new season and old seasons end. We declare the old to end and the new to begin. Thank You, it is time for the New Wine, and New Wineskins. All frustration, bitterness and anger must cease. I thank You; You bring the results you want in my life. I receive the new and open doors you have for me.

The Lord says: “I am doing something in you that you know not of, that you cannot
Comprehend. It's the beginning of more working of My mighty power, more
knowledge, and more revelation. The beginning of more good works, you walking in
them. You cannot comprehend the length, the depth, and the height of it.
This passes your mind, your knowledge, going right in your spirit. It's a
seed now sprouting, being rooted and grounded and growing, coming out of you
imparting, taking hold of others in a greater way than ever before. Do not
judge by the sight of your eyes or the hearing of your ears. The Spirit of
the Lord rests upon you. Nothing shall be impossible for you. New mercies,
new grace, new words, new songs are coming to you to flow through you. The
old and the new are coming together; the old and the young are coming
together. I am joining the Joshua generation with the Caleb generation. The youth have
extreme zeal and the older saints have wonderful wisdom. God is joining the generations. The races are coming together. The male and female are coming together.
All types and all characters are coming together. This is true unity with the Body working. You are a joining together, a motivator to push and thrust them out, My little ones, My old ones. Galatians 3:28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus. All will become one. You are a column holding all together, highly favored of the Lord and of man. You are a part that no one really sees seeking no name for yourself, but promoting others. You are a true mother and father to many. What you will see is a blending together of My Body that you cannot see one part from another. There will be one complete unit. Oh what a sight to see!”
