The next step - Teaching people to move in the freedom of the Spirit

This morning I woke up with a dream where I was teaching people how to walk in the freedom of the Spirit and so I believe the Lord is asking me to teach people how to do this and in so doing, we share our story of where it all begun for us and how did we get to where we are now. This is a question that is sometimes posed to me and in beginning to share our journey I do so because I believe what is going to come is a move of the spirit in such a way that it will transform nations, as we become a people of the Spirit and not of the flesh. Where as we step out in the things of the Spirit, God is going to move powerfully even though it is not of the usual form or the way we have seen it before, but we know it is of God and the fruit testifies to the presence of God. The fruit of the spirit of Gal 6, the characteristics & image of God coming out in peoples lives, of healings happening in the midst without anyone laying on of hands because the presence of God is so tangible, and people are set free from bondages and delivered simply because where the Light of God is, the darkness has to flee – it cannot stay. (1 John 1:5 “God is light; in him there is no darkness at all.”)

Where people become a people no longer sitting on the fence in their relationship with God but either being hot or cold.

We share our journey out of complete humility with God and what he has taught us that could help others to come into what we believe is coming, not because we have anything more than anyone else, but simply because the Lord is asking me to teach people what I have learnt. The word that the Lord has been speaking to me about recently is it “Position Yourself” and I believe we are in a time where we need to position ourselves for what is going to come. Yesterday I was at a meeting and a prayer was given for who needed wealth, but as people were being prayed for I felt also this weight of responsibility that came with receiving much wealth. We all want wealth for whatever reason, that is between you and God, but with great wealth there is great responsibility and if we desire, ask & believe to have it, then we need to be prepared for it to come. The Lord showed me several years ago that great wealth was going to come into our hands and hence actually why we started up Glory Release Ministries as a charitable trust because we knew that the wealth that was going to come was going to be used for Kingdom purposes and so we have ‘positioned ourselves’ in order for that to come. We have yet to see it but are believing for it and so stepped out in faith and action for what we believe for. The Lord says that to whom much is given much is expected. We as a body of Christians have been given so much and now we need to position ourselves in a way that we are using everything the Lord has given ourselves for His purposes however that may look.

And so as I begin on the journey of offering what the Lord has taught us to others in learning to move in the freedom of the Spirit, keep an eye out for the new blogs and feel free to encourage others to read them. Please pray for me as I step out in faith in this arena. Please pray that the Lord would show me the scriptures he would want me to use. Please pray Matt 15:14 “Every plant that my heavenly Father has not planted will be pulled by the roots.” in peoples lives and in my own. Please pray that I would not be a blind person leading another into a pit but that the Lord would given revelation that would make it clear and understandable to those who read what he shows me.

Please pray that peoples hearts and minds would open up to the wind of the spirit touching their lives and changing mindsets and making them available for what the Lord is wanting to bring in our nation and the nations of the world.

Thank you so much – with love – Sarah

"A man's enemies will be the members of his own household" Matt 10:36

Recently we have been pondering how to deal with situations in our family that don't line up with the word. What action do we need to take? Are we being too harsh? Do we accept the behaviour or be considered by those around us as "too radical" or "too black and white"? "Where is grace in all of this? How do we love the sinner but hate the sin? What about forgiveness? What is the role of discipline? What makes that sin any worse than lying? What is true love? And there are a lot more questions going through the mind in how to work through this and know God's will and desire for the situation and the person. And firstly to say we have not come to any conclusions and are growing and learning day by day in this but I want to throw it out there. In Matt 10:34-39 says "Do not suppose that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I did not come to bring peace, but a sword. For I have come to turn "a man against his father, ...

Ponderings today 16 Dec

Whilst we may not agree with everything that is preached from the pulpit, there is always something that we can learn either about the Lord or about ourselves and our responses to it. Lets not be a people to whom are easily offended and move on without learning what it is that the Lord would have us learn in the different situations. I read a wonderful scripture this morning that really encouraged me as one who often feels arrows in the back in the spirit from peoples jud gements towards me, which God really spoke to me about and hope that it would encourage you too if you feel this way. As it is not us who receive the arrows from people but the Lord (v4) But also reminds me not to be a person that speaks about others behind their back as words are powerful and the tongue either brings life or death. And it is so easily done without often thinking about it. And as easily as I feel arrows, others would feel arrows from me. Lord forgive us our sin as we forgive others theirs. ...

Is the church a cafe? Did you go to be served or to serve?

I had a dream this morning where I saw that I was working in a cafe. It was busy, there were people coming and going and we didn’t have everything we needed, we still needed a barista, some customers were helping cook the steak for the hamburgers that Jim was cooking as Jim was rushed off his feet. We needed people to serve the people coming in as I was dealing with all the different ones coming and going. I saw that people were sitting down in a seat but actually weren’t there to get food, they were just using the seats even though they were not using the cafe. I saw a council officer come in to inspect things and she saw we still needed a barista and she knew people and was going to help us to find one. There was an older man there who was smoking a cigar and I was keen to have a drag off his cigar. People were wandering through our private home at the back of the cafe. The cafe remained open because people kept coming. But I was shown that if I did...

There is an army rising up!

Are you struggling in your family? Are you struggling with people in the body of Christ? Keep going in love and you will see the breakthroughs you long for. Over the past few months the Lord has been showing me some scenes where the enemy has been trying to attack and destroy families, and so I believe it is a time where we need to be alert of the devils schemes and counter attack with the truth and the love of God. Three areas we ourselves as a ministry are currently contenting for breakthrough in are: 1. the unity of the body of Christ, 2. for whole families to come to Christ 3. for mental health issues to be overcome .... and so of course the enemy wants to come and try and destroy in whatever way He can within churches, within families, in individuals and so I/we need to be alert to the schemes of the enemy. Romans 12:21 "Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good." One vision I share with you I ha...

Obedience and Commitment are big things in Gods Kingdom

Reading in Acts 7 this morning the story through Stephen of Abraham being told by God to " Leave your country and your people and go the the land I will show you" So he left the land of the Chaldeans and settled in Haran. After the death of his father, God sent him to this land where you are now living. He gave him no inheritance here, not even a foot of ground. But God promised him that he and his descendants after him would possess the land, even though at that time Abraham had no child." As I reflected on this and the journey of Abraham stepping out in faith into a land that he received no inheritance in but a promise of what was to come for his descendants of which we live in the fruit of that, I thought of todays generations in which often is only doing things that we want to do or that will benefit us personally as we live for 'today' not worrying about tomorrow. A sense of if it feels good then do it, if it doesn't then we will move on - perhap...

The biting off of the poisonous finger & and the underground spring being released

Recently I have had two pictures which now the Lord is bringing a fullness of understanding to. In the first vision I saw me biting off the tip of the pointing finger that was black and poisonous and I just knew it was demonic. And the second vision I had only a couple of days ago was of a garden that was unkempt, dry and derelict that suddenly we found an underground irrigations system to and we turned it on and it started to rain and everything came back to life again. And then this scripture was given to me over the weekend that I only saw this morning that has brought confirmation to what I believe the Lord is saying. When there is a poisonous part of the body unless we do something with it, it will infect the rest of the body, like gangrene sometimes we have to take serious measures in order for the rest of the body not to become ill. And although it seems extreme at the time, it is necessary to stop any further infection from spreading. And it was very much like ...
