Scripture: Ephesians 2:4-10In Ephesians 2:4-10 we are told, “But God, who is rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, even when we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved), and raised us up together, and made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, that in the ages to come He might show the exceeding riches of His grace in His kindness toward us in Christ Jesus. For by grace,you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast. For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.” All the good works that God ordained for us, He pre-purposed and predestined us to do. What we have here is the unfolding purpose of God, through His sons and daughters who are schooled in who they are and walk in faith. Sickness cannot tell them;demons cannot stop them and nobody can kill them before they finish their race. We were saved in order to contribute to God\’s ongoing purpose in the earth. We were predestined to do good works that will accomplish His eternal purpose. For such a season we have come to the Kingdom and surely we can walk this out as we participate in gathering in His harvest. God has a divine design and it unfolds through the church. Let’s walk it out,in Jesus’ name!
Today @ 10:54 a.m. is the new moon.
❖During this new moon command,the heavens to praise the Lord.
❖Proclaim Psalm 81. In the Old Testament the new moon was a time to gather properly and solemnly to offer worship and adoration at the gates of a new month. Use this day to praise the Lord and sing to Him, proclaim Psalms of praise to Him and let Him know how thankful you are to enter a new month.
❖At the new moon, make prophetic proclamations, declarations and decrees concerning what you see happening to yourself, your family, your occupation, your ministry, the Ecclesia and your territory by the next new moon. These are prophetic seeds which will grow with the waxing moon, reach their fullness with the full moon and begin to manifest as the moon wanes into the end of an era.
❖The new/crescent moon is sickle shaped. The enemy uses this to “harvest” the gains of the ignorant. As you pray and enforce Num 23:22-23 also pray that the Lord will be an enemy to the spirit of the “Midianites, children of the East and the Amalekites” who harvest with their sickles the gains of the ignorant and destroy whatever they cannot carry away or plunder.
