Papa Hagin awesome book encourages you to locate yourself from the three growth categories

1 - Babyhood Stage
'as newborn babes desire the sincere milk of the Word that you may grow thereby' 1 pet 2:2

This stages the body of Christ needs to ensure that babes are fed and taken care of. We should be more caring for the babes as they need a lot of attention.

2 - Childhood
'that we henceforth be no longer children...' Eph 4:14

b) Curiosity (contrary 1 Thess 4:11)
c) Talkativeness (Prov 10:19)

Sharp Instrument in the Hand of the Lord

Isaiah 41:15-16

Behold, I have made thee a new sharp threshing instrument having teeth thou shalt thresh the mountains, and beat them small and shalt make the hills as chaff

Thou shall fan them, and the wind shall shall carry them away, and the whirlwind shall scatter them and thou shalt rejoice in the Lord and shall glory in the Holy One of Israel

Its amazing how God speaks to us, marvellous, beyond any man's comprehension

A sharp instrument in God's hand have we become and yes vessels of honor!

2 Tim 2:20-21

But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver but also of wood and of the earth, and some to honor, and some to dishonor

If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honor, sanctified, and meet for the master's use, and prepared unto every good work.

Isaiah 49:1-2

Listen, O Isles, unto me;and hearken, ye people, from far, The Lord hath called me from the womb, from bowels of my motherhath he made mention of my name.

And He hath made my mouth like a sharp sword, in the shadow of his hand hath he hid me, and made me a polished shaft, in His quiver hath he hid me;



Admire unombokanganwa iwewe! Unombokanganwa kuti uri ani.

The Spiritual Realm

There is a realm of the Spirit,
Another dimension, another sphere.
All that you see with your natural eyes, is not all there is
There is s spiritual realm

What if I were to tell you of the dimension?
What if you were right that there is more to this life than what your natural senses have?
What if you the truth is - there is a spiritual realm.

What are visions, how does revelation operate?
Why have you seen angels others have not?
Why have you been lifted off your bed and yet you are there?
Who said that and how did you know that?

Open your eyes, son.
Open your eyes!
Open your eyes, admire

See beyond the natural
See beyond the senses
See beyond the normal

There are angels all around you.
Remember what Elisha told that boy - more are they that are on our side!
How could Saul/Paul hear my voice and yet others around could not?
I heard another say I fell into a trance, did you read that one?
John whom you call the revelator, all he told you about the things he saw, the things which are and the things to come. How did he know?

I never intended for my people to be carnal. Read again does it not say I cannot talk to you as unto spiritual but carnal
Never were they to be sense ruled
I never wanted you to operate in the physical realm. Go beyond

Go beyond, I say
See things with the eye of the Spirit
See it from the God perspective.

WOE IS ME FOR I AM UNDONE!

Woe is me oh Lord for I am undone,
I am a man of unclean lips
My heart is full of deception, oh Lord
Woe is me, I am undone.
Indiscipline has destroyed me
lack of focus and discipline my enemies
Woe is me for I am undone

In the year that King Uzziah died, I saw the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up and the skirts of His train filled the temple
Above him stood thye seraphim; each had six wings, with two covered his face, with two covered his feet and with two he flew
And one cried unto the other and said, Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of hosts, the whole earth is full of his glory
And the foundation of the threshold shook and the voice of him that cried and the house was filled with smoke.
Then I said, Woe is me! for I am undone and ruined, because I am a man of unclean lips and I dwell among people with unclean lips, for my eyes have seen the King, the Lord of hosts!
Then flew one of the seraphim to me with one live coal in his hand which he had taken with tongs from the altar
And with it he touched my mouth and said, behold this has touched your lips; your iniquity and guilty are taken away, and your sin is completely atoned for and forgiven.
Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, Whom shall I send? And who will go for us? and I said Here am I, send me.......... (Isaiah 6:1-13)



Woe is me indeed!

A new grace, a new fight a new ability
There is a fresh anointing available.
My heart is overwhelmed, my heart is loaded
It is full of the heart of God, full of the will of the Father
My heart is full and loaded, pregnant.
Kneel down, pray, pray to God your Father
Say here I am, send me. Pray
Your spirit is already kneeling before God,
Your inner man is already in prayer
He is calling to God
Deep calls unto deep at the sound of Your waterfall
Woe is me for I am undone!

2010 in RetroSPECT (2)

Continued....

The sonographer indeed took too long, I could hear my wife's anxiety in her tone of voice and the body language.

Medical language is fascinating it read, 'No foetal activity' you do not need a lawyer to interpret the language, you need your doctor. We spoke to our pastor who is a medical doctor by proffesion. He decoded the same message guess we wanted to hear what the implications were since I was resolute that the fact the sonoG found no heart beat now does not mean the baby is not alive.

I remember by the the time we got home my wife was weeping, she knew I was excited about being a father, we both were in preparation. I had earlier advised my spiritual father, Dr G Shana about the pregnancy and mentioned I cannot believe I will be a father, he teased back and said wavakamudhara manje - typical of dad, he has his intriguing sense of humour and yet drilling the truth in you lest you have forgotten. My wife sobbed and as a loving husband I had to throw away my emotions and provide the crying shoulder. We began to pray.

Have you ever prayed, but the prayer is a declaration, I remember saying that, 'nothing dies in my hands, I have the resurrection life in me, nothing that is mine dies...' its still so I have the ZOE, the God kind of life, the eternal life. NOTHING dies in my hands, I resurrect it if it decides to die on me. WE SPOKE the Word of God, by the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, we began to prophecy, divers kinds of tongues kicked in and we spoke boldly as given utterance. Laughter filled our mouths, joy flooded our hearts and peace that surpasses all understanding enveloped our hearts and mind. God was right there with us in the furnace, in our sorrow, in our grief in our bedroom. We were at peace. My wife said I want my child to be called Grace, I agreed I speak about grace more than most people. Actually my first ever message to preach was entitled - The Word, the power and the grace - I decided to go back to the sonoG, I wanted another scan, I believe God's resurrection power, I do now and will ever do. The sonoG report was the same, my faith had grown, my confession matured. I AM BLESSED, nothing evil happens to me. the hand of the LORD is upon me. I am not moved by this, I AM the blessed one of the LORD.


Unshaken, steadfast, unmoved. Fixed on my God. bring it on, we overcome, bring it up and you see that My God and I are victors. I remember the Holy spirit whispered to me later on and said - my grace is sufficient for you, for now demonstrate how one lives, talks and handles such as one a case. I was not moved, I knew that I am the blessed one, no evil comes to my tent. Even when we agreed to have a baby again, I had no worry, I told my wife the same thing - We are blessed, we are the anointed ones, the hand of the Lord is good toward us. She wanted to worry, I said that's not our portion, we are blessed, God is on our side. She is 4 months pregnant now and I tell you again we are blessed, no evil, devil can change that. The hand of the Lord is upon us. Blessed, blessed, blessed! Declared righteous, declared victorious, declared winners, declared more than conquerors.


In all we went through in 20tenI can only say -IT CAN ONLY BE GOD, we surpassed the challenge, we overcame. We won, we were victors. No broken spirit, our faith in Him has grown and matured. I can say in all humility, I know God, I know His ways, I am acquainted with His personality. He is my Father. His personality has rubbed on me. Ndazara nekutenda, ndazara nehuMwari.OSEYE, isu tatokunda was indeed the song for the year 2010 as was spoken by the Holy Spirit through our mouths.

BOOK REVIEW WEEK ONE

ZOE - The God-Kind of Life
Written by Kenneth E Hagin

I read this book before but boy it sure is anointed.

I liked the prophecy in the book -

'do not become discouraged, because the truth does not dawn on your spirits all at once. But keep meditating on the facts of the Word. The more you meditate on that which is written, and the more you meditate on that which is said as one shall speak under the anointing and the inspiration of the Spirit, then little by little it will become real to you. And as on the inside of you, in your spirit,in your inner man, it takes shape and form, it will reshape your own spirit, until you'll no longer be a weakling, spiritually, but you shall become strong, and able to stand,and do the works the Lord has called you unto, and rule and reign and dominate in life, as king by Jesus Christ. So do not turn away even because you do not fully understand or see. But let your mind be opened your spirit be receptive and say thou, O blessed Holy Spirit, unveil the truth unto my spirit, that I may stand in the fullness of the provision of my Father, for He is my Father....'

ZOE - the God kind of life

I am come that you may have life and life in its fullness (more abundantly) Jn 10:10
... that whosoever believeth in him should not perish but have everlasting life (eternal life) Jn 3:16
In him was life; and the life was the light of men Jn 1:4

Awesome book papa Hagin reveals what kind of life we received when we got born again. We received the very life of God. We aught however to walk in the light of it and let this LIFE dominate us. We are a new creation one that never existed before
We are ruling and reigning in this life!

My rating 7/10

2010 in RETROspect

If I were to write a book on the year 2010, it deserves a label like (It can only be GOD)

I actually have no words to write but over time when I open my heart the Lord fills my mouth with words. I remember when the year began, the Lord gave me a song - OSEYE, have you heard what the Lord has down, He has destroyed the works of satan. He has given me the Victory thats why I sing OSEYE - i embraced the word, I rejoiced at His word. I saw myself winning victory after victory, the words strength from strength overwhelmeld me. I celebrated!


It was truly a year of victory after victory, a year of progress and strength after strength, however not in the way that I thought. I faced many challenges, I mean many. The sticking out ones were the below;


1. My wife had a miscarriage
2. I would wrestle with the enemy occassionally sometimes in my sleep mostly praying
3. Our finances were not really stable.
4. Work conditions were unbearable
5. I had more questions that answers from church
6. my family was not really knowing and yes understanding what we were going through
7.I guess seeing things differently from most people made it even worse


But I can declare OSEYE, you are the winner. Have you heard what the Lord has done, he has destroyed the work of satan. ISU tatokunda zveshuwa. we overcome every obstacle I say over and over again we overcame all the hurdles all of them, we stand victorious, we stand TALL and rejoice at all that the Lord did for us and through us



The miscarriage

I for one believe and trust the hand of the Lord upon my life. I rejoiced indeed because I had seen the pictures of our daughter. I went around telling everyone its a girl because I had seen the pictures. I saw myself with my daughter and I did not need a doctor's report to tell me the sex of the child. I declared daily to my wife it’s a girl. I knew it, I even had names told my wife because the Lord had told me the children we are to have. I rejoiced!

I remember when my wife started bleeding, I discounted all that and said it is well with the righteous, she recovered and was well. When we went for a routine scan, such joy filled our hearts. The sonographer took a long while before coming back to us and my wife began to worry - something is wrong with the baby she said - I dispelled all that and I remember saying to her WE ARE THE BLESSED ONES, LOVE. Good things happen to us all the time. I remained adamant confessed the blessing of the Lord. Oh yes, tell you what I believe in God even if you are to tell me, I am dead and my house is burnt down and all that is mine is gone. I would celebrate and still speak it, I AM BLESSED, I AM BLESSED, I AM BLESSED. The hand of the Lord is GOOD towards me, HIS GRACE is sufficient for me. I CAN say this a billion times and still can say it. IT IS SO, I AM BLESSED THE HAND OF THE LORD IS GOOD TOWARDS ME.

I am blessed beyond imagination, I am blessed going in and coming out. I am blessed in the city and in the country, I AM blessed. I am the highly favored one. I am so blessed that even heathens say it - that man is blessed- The devil did not give it me he can never take it away ende futi you cannot curse what the LORD has blessed! I AM BLESSED baba, ehe the blessing of the Lord is my clothing. Takapfeka ropafadzo yaJehova. The blessing of the Lord drips on us and inoyerera pandiri. Come rain come thunder it does not change me I AM BLESSED. I am blessed big time mukwambo, takaropafadwa isu. Let all the demons hear it and all the nations know, the blessed ones are US. We are the blessed ones. We are the victors, we are the anointed ones, we are the gifted ones, we are the powerful ones, and we are the glorified ones. You want to be blessed be our friend be part of us that blessing will overtake you.


I believe it, tinovimba nezita raJesu. My time is up, have to continue later. I AM BLESSED! THE HAND OF THE LORD IS GOOD TO ME ALL THE TIME! The Word says it, I believe it, I speak it and that settles it!
