To all the Saints, Greetings!
Going forth into this prolific season, our mission and function are being defined for the new day. Faithful to the vision, we press forth into the high calling of Christ, clothed in righteousness, and firmly established in our identity and objective as we are being developed by our Lord in this hour. [Teacher]
Bowing our knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, we lift our hands in complete surrender to Him and our eyes to see what He would show us. With much to do on His behalf, He sends us forth into the nations with the water of life that flows from His Throne. [Apostle]
Rooted and grounded in agape, the saints are positioned to go forth in wisdom and understanding, sent forth as lightning into the world, that our light may shine before men and that they may see our good works and glorify our Father who is in heaven. [Evangelist]
Drawn up to the Throne as dust in His wind, in proskuneo before the Father, heaven opened, releasing its sound with angels ascending and descending in worship with the saints. With halal creativity through praise and worship, our enemies are pushed down, silencing murmuring voices as we stand in readiness of spirit to move at the sound of His voice. [Prophet]
Expanding into the nations, may there be a heightened expansion in the pastoral capacity among all the saints, with increased resolve and a strengthening of the foundation of the authority structure God has established in His churches and among His leaders. [Pastor]

First Saturday Prayer Insights
March 2024
First Saturday prayer yielded one prevalent thought. And this is being developed in this hour by our Lord as our identity and objective.
Matthew 5:14-16 Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid. Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.

We are being clothed in righteousness, firmly established in our identity through relationship, positioning, and obedience to the right hand of His Throne, faithful to the vision. It is not business as usual. Our mission and function is being defined for the new day as we go forward into this prolific season.
~ ~ ~
All the murmuring voices that are surrounding us will be silenced by the Lord. We are in readiness of spirit to move at the sound of His voice. We must use our halal creativity through our praise and worship team to boast about the Lord concerning how He will move forward in righteous vision. Our praise or yada is a revelatory thing. It is strategic to extend our hands, let them be lifted high looking for the miraculous in this season allowing for the will of our Lord and King to be fulfilled.
Psalm 44:4-8 Thou art my King. . . 5 Through thee will we push (to thrust or gore using singers and musicians) down our enemies: through thy name will we tread (trample) them under that rise up against us. 6 For I will not trust in my bow, neither shall my sword save me. 7 But thou hast saved us from our enemies, and hast put them to shame (confounded) that hated us. 8 In God we boast (halal- to shine, glory) all the day long, and praise (yada – to worship with extended hands) thy name for ever.
~ ~ ~
For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ and I lift my hands in complete surrender. I open my heart to receive my Beloved and lift my eyes to see what He would show me. I position myself to go forward in wisdom and understanding.

While in prayer I kept hearing “press forth”. As Saints we have to “press forth” into the high calling of Christ. Philippians 3:14 I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.

While pondering on the prayer directive, the Father showed me the many ways that the enemy had been attacking my health and trying to distract me from my purpose. I called upon the name of the Lord and He sent His son to clear the path and to restore my health.
The Father showed me His mighty hand. He has made way for future endeavors with an ease that only the Father can do.
He spoke to my heart and said, “there is much in store for the saints to do, we must move forward on His behalf and wait to see the great and powerful day of the Lord.”

I saw the saints standing beside the river that appeared to Ezekiel flowing from the temple.
Ezekiel 47:6-9 And he said unto me, Son of man, hast thou seen this? Then he brought me, and caused me to return to the brink of the river. Now when I had returned, behold, at the bank of the river were very many trees on the one side and on the other. Then said he unto me, These waters issue out toward the east country, and go down into the desert, and go into the sea: which being brought forth into the sea, the waters shall be healed. And it shall come to pass, that every thing that liveth, which moveth, whithersoever the rivers shall come, shall live: and there shall be a very great multitude of fish, because these waters shall come thither: for they shall be healed; and every thing shall live whither the river cometh.

I saw the saints upon their face before the Lord crying out. As we continued to pray I heard a noise that came from the north. Then suddenly the place we were praying at filled with the glory of God. We wept and glorified our Father.
2 Chronicles 6:39-7:3 Then hear thou from the heavens, even from thy dwelling place, their prayer and their supplications, and maintain their cause, and forgive thy people which have sinned against thee. Now, my God, let, I beseech thee, thine eyes be open, and let thine ears be attent unto the prayer that is made in this place. Now therefore arise, O LORD God, into thy resting place, thou, and the ark of thy strength: let thy priests, O LORD God, be clothed with salvation, and let thy saints rejoice in goodness. O LORD God, turn not away the face of thine anointed: remember the mercies of David thy servant. Now when Solomon had made an end of praying, the fire came down from heaven, and consumed the burnt offering and the sacrifices; and the glory of the LORD filled the house. And the priests could not enter into the house of the LORD, because the glory of the LORD had filled the LORD’s house. And when all the children of Israel saw how the fire came down, and the glory of the LORD upon the house, they bowed themselves with their faces to the ground upon the pavement, and worshipped, and praised the LORD, saying, For he is good; for his mercy endureth for ever.

During prayer I saw people gathered on a large platform. They were worshipping the Father. At first I thought it was the platform in the Sanctuary in Dallas, but then I realized it was a flat platform balanced upon a tall raised pole. It was so high, in fact, that I could not see where it was anchored at the bottom. I wondered then if it was in the heavens. Suddenly the platform began to sway and shake. Some people fell away, but others gathered near the legs of some people who seemed to be firmly able to stand. A voice behind me said, “These are they who are firmly established and who are rooted and grounded in the agape.” They brought stability. I thought, of course, of Ephesians 3:17. Then I saw on the platform that those worshiping had ribbons of deep blue, white, light blue, red, purple. They were weaving them around a people, almost like a maypole. There was a door opening into the heavens and angels were ascending and descending, joining with the worship. There was a vibrating and a sound of the heavens and the worshippers picked up the sound. Then there was suddenly a hush and the weightiness of the presence of the Lord came and everyone fell on their faces and worshipped the Father.

I saw a cloud filled with lightning enveloping the Dallas sanctuary. It was us! Partnering with the Father, where we connected in partnership, there was a flash of lightning.

Jeremiah 17:7-12 7 Blessed is the man that trusteth in the LORD, and whose hope the LORD is. 8 For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters, and that spreadeth out her roots by the river, and shall not see when heat cometh, but her leaf shall be green; and shall not be careful in the year of drought, neither shall cease from yielding fruit. 9 The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it? 10 I the LORD search the heart, I try the reins, even to give every man according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings. 11 As the partridge sitteth on eggs, and hatcheth them not; so he that getteth riches, and not by right, shall leave them in the midst of his days, and at his end shall be a fool. 12 A glorious high throne from the beginning is the place of our sanctuary.
I felt and then saw us around the Throne. We were gathering towards it like dust in the wind. Every new perspective “I” saw moving like this with everyone gave my heart new joy to glorify God in that new insight. I also felt our serving of God on earth was in very slow motion….as if, when I tried to think on earthly things, it slowed to a crawl. It allowed me to see more of what was flowing around each person than what was happening.

The Spirit led me to pray for a heightened expansion in the pastoral capacity. This was for the Network as we move into, not only Brazil, but as we expand into other nations as well this year. We need discernment and proper assessment of strengths to help position new leaders within the nations. But this pastoral expansion capacity was also for our Brazilian pastors for their own churches. In the midst of this, I felt a sharp pain in my left ribcage. I recognized it as an attack on the foundation of the authority structure of these Brazilian pastors and their churches. We speak a girding up and an increased resolve and strengthening over this office among all the saints…..that nothing would enter, through back-handed channels, to weaken the authority God has established in His churches and among His leaders.

March 2024 – Summary
Just as Jesus communed constantly with His Father, in this month of the pastor, the Spirit has directed and set us apart in such a way as to welcome and touch the heart of the Lord in a new depth of intimacy so as to prepare our hearts for this time and the season to come. (Pastor)
Understanding the necessity and privilege of our position in Him, we allow Him to shape, purify, transform and equip us to reflect His light and represent Him so that the Father’s eternal intention may be manifested. (Teacher)
In the deserted place where our vulnerability is exposed, He is our support and provision. His joy is there as He develops us into a personal relationship to become all He desires to serve Him in the days to come. (Prophet)
In an incredible atmosphere vibrant with vitality, we are in anticipation of what the Lord desires to accomplish among His saints. As partners in His ways, His grace is there to apply the divine plan and move us forward into the fullness of His purposes (Evangelist).
Tuning our voices to His desires, the intercession of the Saints rises to the Father as we wait for sons to arise and answer the call in this season of His kingdom’s expansion into the nations. (Apostle)
For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.
2 Corinthians 4:6

March 2024 – Report
During this time of communion, there were tears and an inner cry so deep and so desperate to touch the Father’s Heart in Jesus’ Name.
Jesus would enter this time and it was as if He showed me His Hands and told my spirit to see the Father’s Heart in His fingertips, to see the Father’s Heart in His eyes, to feel the Father’s Heart in His Heart and He brought back to my memory how He had acted on earth and communicated the Father through the touch of His fingers, through His gaze and through His heart saturated with love.
The Father touches me all over again with His Love and there’s this desire, this desperation I’d say, to be filled all over again with the Father’s Love and Will like Jesus.
May the Father’s Heart be at my fingertips, in my eyes and in my heart more than it has ever been for this new time, this new season. May I represent Him as He is worthy.
Psalm 24 :3 Who shall ascend into the hill of the LORD? or who shall stand in his holy place? 4 He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully.

I was looking out over a rough sea, the sky was grey and overcast with clouds, then the sunlight started to break through the clouds with bright rays and the gaps in the clouds were increasing, allowing more light to shine through powerfully. At first, I thought it was the dawn but then I realised it wasn’t as the light was too bright and white.
Light is breaking forth
2 Corinthians 4:6 For God, who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,” has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.

The Lord led me to Song of Songs chapter 8 and the first part of verse 5 :
Who is this that cometh up from the wilderness , leaning upon her beloved ?
This has such a depth because it speaks of all that the Lord is doing in this season .
A time of making time to simply be with Him, to seek after Him and His ways .There is a longing to be closer. It has been in many ways a time in the wilderness, of vulnerability, and as the verse says a leaning into Him, for only He will do, He is everything.
I thank the Lord for His beautiful Presence amongst us and within us in these days, take us deeper into Your heart.

During our prayer time on Saturday, I felt the vitality emanating from the Sanctuary in Dallas as the Seminar approached. The sanctuary was vibrating with anticipation, and the colors associated with this atmosphere were red, orange and yellow.
I’m really looking forward to what the Father will accomplish in the midst of the Saints during the Seminar.
During intercession, I also read the description of Jesus in the first verses of the book of Revelation.
Let’s continue to prepare our hearts to receive from Him.

– In the beginning we sang about the King’s army. There was a battle with breakthroughs.
– Then dancing, joy, we were praising the Lord.
– Then a balm of Love flowed from the Father’s Heart, I smiled at Him.
– I heard the word provision in all areas.
– I prayed for pastors, for those who are tired and discouraged, that the Lord would lift them up and strengthen them. May pastors equip Christians well and let them go out on their missions.
– Then there was a time of grace, tenderness, depth and eternity that flowed. I thanked the Lord.
– I saw little lights going on everywhere.

I found myself in an unusual place: I found myself in a morgue. Wondering what I was doing there! I started to see a drawer opening by itself, a second, a third, ….
I saw the sheets start to move, because the people weren’t dead but just deeply asleep. They were waking up, pulling back the sheet above them. One by one, they straightened up, became aware of who they were and of their destiny on earth.
They came out of their spiritual comas and this cold room to fulfill their destiny outside.
Interpretation: the Spirit of God is going to rekindle the call of all His sons and daughters who have been put “in closets” by evil shepherds who, instead of equipping them, encouraging them and sending them on their way, have extinguished their flames and the Life of the Spirit within them.

Several breakthroughs to penetrate the thick layer of darkness where so many destroyed souls lay.
I heard stop for a little while in my rest and acknowledge that I AM God (psalm 46:10), then move forward together in one spirit to follow me, clothed in My Glory.
I was so thirsty to meet my Lord that I was the first to stand before the empty tomb and meet my Rabboni. The time of miracles and resurrection is here, and also the time of elevation to a whole new level. Will we recognize the time of His new Visitation?
Then I was plunged into a deep sleep, as if anaesthetized for an operation. I awoke in green pastures, the air very pure, the grass very green, the sheep well fed. A clear stream of living water flowed by. Glory, Eternity was there.
Psalm 23:1 David’s song. The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. 3 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake. 4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. 5 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. 6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.
I could see the Good Shepherd bringing back on his shoulders the sick sheep from all the places of perdition where they had gone astray. The Father’s Love was released for a long time bringing with Him a balm of Gilead for the healing of broken hearts. I knew we were being equipped for all those we call irredeemable in human sight.
Jeremiah 3:15 And I will give you pastors according to mine heart, which shall feed you with knowledge and understanding.
