Words from the Lord: "A time for reset and new beginning!"

The Lord says: 

"There's a refreshing in the spirit and a fresh outpouring being released upon you right now. Whatever that has been stale and stagnant, I am releasing a freshness from My Spirit right now. Do not look back. Do not linger in all those regrets and disappointments that you've had. For I am saying to you there will be many new beginnings as you walk into this new month." 

The Lord says:

"The enemy has tried to break you, and there have been times you are on the verge of giving up, but I have been there with you all along. You may not see it, but I have been there. I am now releasing a new strength and fresh anointing upon you. The anointing that breaks every yoke and bondage. You will have a new authority in the spirit. You will have the authority to overcome what you've not been able to overcome in the recent months. Receive this authority by faith." 

The Lord says for this month: 

"This month, I am resetting many things that have gone wrong in your life. Look to Me and receive from Me. For I have a rescue plan for you. I will know how to draw you out from the miry clay and set you upon the rock. I will know how to pull you out of the pit and the dungeon that the enemy has tried to throw you into. For I have given you the anointing and authority to overcome. I have given you the victory!" 

The term 'miry clay' here is used in the Bible to describe a thick, sticky, and muddy substance that can trap and ensnare you. Therefore, 'miry clay' speaks of a difficult, unstable, or perilous situation that you are facing, and evokes a sense of getting stuck, bogged down, or unable to move on or progress in your life. 

So beloved of God, if you have been stuck, or bogged down, or cannot progress in your life, this message is for you! 

Psalm 40:2 (NKJV) says, 'He also brought me up out of the horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my steps.' 

Psalm 60:4-5 (NKJV) says, 'You have given a banner to those who fear You, that it may be displayed because of the truth. That Your beloved may be delivered. Save with Your right hand, and hear me.' 

The word 'banner' here is 'nes' in Hebrew. It literally means 'flag'. What does this speak of? It speaks of God's victory for His beloved. And that's you and I! That's why, no matter what you have been going through in your life recently, this is your time to claim your victory! 

In cross-reference, Exodus 17:13-16 (NKJV) says, 'So Joshua defeated Amalek and his people with the edge of the sword. Then the Lord said to Moses, "Write this for a memorial in the book and recount it in the hearing of Joshua, that I will utterly blot out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven." And Moses built an altar and called its name, THE-LORD-IS-MY-BANNER; for he said, "Because the Lord has sworn: the Lord will have war with Amalek from generation to generation."' 

THE-LORD-IS-MY-BANNER here is 'YHWH Nissi' in Hebrew. This word 'Nissi' is from the word 'nes' in Hebrew, which we saw just now, and it speaks of God's victory for His beloved. 

What does 'Amalek' signify here? This name 'Amaleq' in Hebrew speaks of 'unprovoked attack or habitual attack against God's beloved'. In other words, constantly finding any chance or opportunity to attack God's beloved. 

In response to this attack, Moses told Joshua's army to fight a military battle against the Amalekites. If you look at the Scripture, Joshua's army relied on the Lord as they fought this battle. With the Lord's help, and with the Lord's guidance, they eventually won! It was an outright victory. It was a resounding victory. Why? Because the Lord was with them! The Lord is their Banner! YHWH Nissi! 

Back to David now in Psalm 60:4-5. Here, David was also going through a time when he faced attack from the enemy. And what did David do? If you look at Psalm 60, he looked to the Lord! He looked to the Lord who would raise a banner against the attack of the enemy. You see again? A banner! YHWH Nissi! The Lord our Banner! The Lord our victory! 

So beloved of God, whatever the attack of the enemy may be; be it in your health, in your family, in your career, in the ministry, or in any area of your life; look to the Lord who is your YHWH Nissi! He will know how to rescue you! He will know how to give you the victory! 

We've read Psalm 60:4-5 in New King James Version (NKJV). Now let's read from New Living Translation (NLT). This is interesting. This is how the translators put it: 'But You have raised a banner for those who fear You - a rallying point in the face of attack. Now rescue Your beloved people. Answer and save us by Your power.' 

You see, not by the power of man, but by the power of God! 

By the way, what is 'a rallying point'? It is defined as 'someone or something that unites the people in the face of an attack'. In our context here, the Lord is uniting and joining together with us in the face of an attack by the enemy. And if God is joined together with you, if God is with you, if God is for you, who can be against you? (Romans 8:31)

The word 'rescue' here in Psalm 60 is 'khawlats' in Hebrew. It can mean 'to draw you out (from trouble)', or 'to pull you out (from danger)'. That's exactly what God is doing in your life right now! 

Not just that. The Lord is also resetting many things that have gone wrong in your life! Now, different people different. For some of you, it may be in the area of health. For some of you, it may be in the area of finance. For some of you, it may be in your career. And for some of you, it may be in the ministry. Whatever it may be, the Lord is saying to you today that He is resetting many things that have gone wrong in your life! 

The word 'reset' can be defined as 'to set things (afresh and anew) again'. So, today, allow the Lord to reset you! It is like you resetting your password. Why do people reset their password? There are a few reasons. One reason can be to enhance security against any hacker or any cyber attack. Another reason may be they have forgotten their old password. Yet another reason may be simply because they just want to start afresh. 

Whatever your situation may be, the Lord wants to reset your life and your situation. Why? So that the enemy cannot 'touch' you, 'attack' you, or 'compromise' you anymore! That's why the Lord is resetting you! Yes, resetting your situation! Turning things right side up! Turning things for your good! Reversing whatever the enemy has done against you! Rolling it back against the enemy! So that you will come forth even stronger than before! Amen! Hallelujah!

Entering the realm of miracles and breakthroughs!

The Lord says:

"Tell My people this is the time to declare heaven to open over and above their heads." 

The Lord says further: 

"For My light is shining bright upon My people in spite of the darkness surrounding them in the world. For My glory is coming such as has never been seen on earth. Look up therefore, and receive from Me."

The Lord wants you to enter His realm of victory, breakthrough, and miracles! 

What are the miracles that you need in your life right now? What are the breakthroughs that you need in your life right now? It may be in your health. It may be in your finance. It may be in your career. It may be in the ministry. Or in any area of your life. Let the King of glory come into that area. Amen! 

Remember, He has been resurrected, and in Him is life! He has victory over whatever that's dead or hopeless. So, present to the Lord whatever that's dead or hopeless in your life. Let God breathe life into those situation of yours. 

In John 1:51, Jesus said to Nathanael, "Most assuredly, I say to you, hereafter you shall see heaven open, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of Man." 

And you know what? The very next moment after that, Jesus performed His very first miracle on earth! What was that miracle? He turned water into wine!

I want to declare upon you that whatever that you are running out of, or whatever that you are lacking, the Lord is filling it right now!

John 2:1-3 (NKJV) says, 'On the third day there was a wedding in Cana of Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there. Now both Jesus and His disciples were invited to the wedding. And when they ran out of wine, the mother of Jesus said to Him, "They have no wine."'

'On the third day' here is symbolic of 'the resurrection of Jesus, and the fact that He is very much alive today'. 

'Jesus being invited' here speaks of 'Jesus being invited into your life and even in your situation'. 

'Wine' here speaks of 'the joy and every good thing in life'. 

Just for a cross-reference. In the English Standard Version (ESV), Nehemiah 8:10 says: And he said to them, "Go your way. Eat the fat and drink sweet wine, and send portions to anyone who has nothing ready, for this day is holy to our Lord. And do not be grieved, for the joy of the Lord is your strength."

See the word 'wine' there? 

As you receive the joy that comes from the above, you'll also have the strength to carry on and look forward in your life. With a new vigor! With a new hope! 

As a matter of fact, one of the reasons Jesus came on earth is to set you free from every sorrow! 

Beloved of God, surrender whatever sorrow (or even pain) that you have to the Lord. He is here to set you free from all these! 

And whatever your 'sticky situation' that you have right now, the Lord is assuring you that He will always have a solution to all these! Nothing is too difficult for Him. All things are possible to Him. You believe this, and you shall receive. Just do not limit how God is going to do it. 

John 2:6-8 (NKJV) says, 'Now there were set there six waterpots of stone... containing twenty or thirty gallons apiece. Jesus said to them (those who were serving in the wedding banquet), "Fill the waterpots with water." And they filled them up to the brim. And He said to them, "Draw some out now, and take it to the master of the feast." And they took it.' 

You see, whatever Jesus said, they did it accordingly. Now, that's the same key for you to enter the realm of miracles and breakthroughs. Whatever He says, you do. 

See what happened next. John 2:9-11 (NKJV) says, 'When the master of the feast had tasted the water that was made wine, and did not know where it came from (but the servants who had drawn the water knew), the master of the feast called the bridegroom. And he said to him, "Every man at the beginning sets out the good wine, and when the guests have well drunk, then the inferior. You have kept the good wine until now!" This beginning of signs Jesus did in Cana of Galilee, and manifested His glory; and His disciples believed in Him.'

Today, the Lord is saying here right now, that you too are entering such realm! The realm of miracles and breakthroughs! By faith, see yourself walking in it!

Prayer: 

"O Lord God, we thank You for Your words today. You are a God who turns our sorrow into joy, and our mourning into dancing! You are a God of signs, wonders and miracles. We want to walk in this realm of miracles and breakthroughs right now. We want to walk under Your open heaven here on earth right now. We look to You, and we present to You our lives. We present to You our situation right now, especially those sticky and challenging ones. Come and shine Your light on all these. Come and have Your way. We receive Your miracle, by faith. We receive Your breakthrough, by faith. We receive the victory that You have won for us, by faith. Every hindrance, be gone! Every sickness, be gone! Every work of darkness that comes against us, be gone! In the name of Jesus. Amen!"

Receive peace in the midst of the 'storm'

The Lord says: 

"Receive My peace in the midst of the 'storms'. Look to Me, no matter what you are going through or what you see happening in the world around you. For I am still in control. I am a sovereign God. My perfect will be done. Be not shaken. Be afraid not. Be anxious not. Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you." 

No matter what 'storm' you may be facing at the moment, be it 'storm' in your family, 'storm' in your health, 'storm' in your finance, 'storm' in your workplace, or whatever 'storm' you may be facing, take heart, because the Lord is releasing His peace upon you and inside of you. 

In John 14:27, Jesus says, "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." 

No one and nothing can take away this peace of the Lord from you. The peace that the world cannot give to you, but that comes only from the Lord. This peace stays in you. This peace reigns in you. This peace is greater. This peace overcomes whatever 'storm' or 'turbulence' that's happening in and around you. Amen! 

Isaiah 26:3-4 says, 'You will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on You, because he trusts in You. Trust in the Lord forever, for in YAH, the Lord, is everlasting strength.' 

If your mind is stayed on the Lord, He will keep you in perfect peace. So, no matter what you may be facing, trust in the Lord who is your everlasting strength. What does 'everlasting strength' mean here? It means He is like the Rock that cannot be shaken. Ever! He is the Rock of all ages - in times past, now, and forevermore. Amen!

So, set your mind on Him, and let your mind stayed on Him, instead of on the issues or troubles around you. 

The word 'peace' here is 'shalom' in Hebrew. So, 'perfect peace' means 'perfect shalom'. This word 'shalom' can mean 'peace (in every sense of this word), safety, wellness, wholeness, welfare, health, prosperity, favor'. As you can see here, it has a broad meaning. 

This word 'shalom' comes from the word 'shalam' in Hebrew, meaning 'to be completely safe and secure'. You know what this means? This means the peace of the Lord that you receive from Him makes you completely safe and secure, no matter what the 'storm' may be around you! 

By the way, when we say 'storm' here, it means 'anything that is disturbing', 'anything that is troubling', or 'anything that is tumultuous'.

What are the 'storms' around you at the moment? What are the 'storms' that you are facing at the moment? 

Look to the Lord. Receive His shalom peace. Receive His perfect peace. Set your mind on Him. And trust in Him that He is still in control, and He will somehow work things out for you. Amen!

Philippians 4:6-7 says, 'Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.' 

What is the meaning of 'peace which surpasses all understanding' here? It means 'peace that goes beyond what the human mind can fully grasp or comprehend', or 'peace that transcends any rational thought and emotional turmoil'. 

And whenever you see no peace around you, what do you do? Pray! Pray the perfect will of God over the situation. Pray that the peace of the Lord will reign over the situation. Yes, pray even for the situation that you see in the world, that God's perfect will be done. Amen! 

Philippians 4:8-9 says, 'Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy - meditate on these things. The things which you learned and received and heard and saw in me, this do, and the God of peace will be with you.' 

The word 'meditate' here is 'logizomai' in Greek, and in the context here, it means 'to think the same (as how God thinks)'. In other words, think as He thinks. Think the way He wants you to think. Think the way the Scripture teaches you to think. Be of the same mind with His mind! Be on the same wavelength with Him! 

This word 'meditate' here can be a cross-reference to Isaiah 26:3 that says you will have perfect peace if your mind is stayed on Him, and you trust in Him. Trust in Him that He is still in control. Trust in Him that He knows how to work things out for you. Indeed, He has the solution to all your situation!
