OUR REASONABLE SERVICE

TODAY’S PROPHETIC NUMBERS

July 21, 2024 – 07/21/2024
  7 – The Spirit of God
21 – Manifest Spirit

Matthew 7:21 (NKJV) “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven.”

OUR REASONABLE SERVICE

To make a difference is to do something of importance; something that helps people or makes the world a better place.  To change a life or a situation that brings the Kingdom into somebody’s life.

James 1:27 (NKJV) Pure and undefiled religion before God and the Father is this: Redo to visit orphans and widows in their trouble, and to keep oneself unspotted from the world.

It is truly a blessing to look after and take care of the needy. Not only does it please God, but it will also bless your heart. It is more blessed to give than to receive, and you will see the manifestation of the Spirit of God show up and touch these people.

Deuteronomy 10:12-13 (NKJV) “And now, Israel, what does the Lord your God require of you, but to fear the Lord your God, to walk in all His ways and to love Him, to serve the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul, and to keep the commandments of the Lord and His statutes which I command you today for your good?

God wants us to shed our old, stony hearts and put on hearts of compassion, helping the people in need. This is our reasonable service.  Showing compassion to those who are struggling is showing the people the Kingdom of God in this fallen world.

Ezekiel 36:26-27 (NKJV) I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you; I will take the heart of stone out of your flesh and give you a heart of flesh. I will put My Spirit within you and cause you to walk in My statutes, and you will keep My judgments and do them.

Declaration: I will have compassion for vulnerable people and do my part to help show them the Kingdom of God in their lives.  I will continually remember that God has placed me in this world for such a time as this.

THE COMING ONE

TODAY’S PROPHETIC NUMBERS

July 20, 2024 – 07/20/2024
  7 – The Spirit of God
20 – Waiting and Expectancy

Luke 7:20 (NKJV) When the men had come to Him, they said, “John the Baptist has sent us to You, saying, ‘Are You the Coming One, or do we look for another?’ ”

THE COMING ONE

“Are you the Coming One or do we look for another?” Many will be asking this question sooner rather than later because, My Friends, we are in the end times, and we are watching prophesy play out.

To prevent getting lost and caught up in the woke mindset of the world, you have to stay focused on King Jesus and make sure you are in daily communication with Him keeping your personal relationship strong.  It will be very tempting to believe the lies of the false prophets who will be making appearances in this world before Jesus comes back, but if you are walking in the fear of the Lord, you will be able to see through the lies, no matter how good they may be.

Luke 7:22-23 (NKJV) Jesus answered and said to them, “Go and tell John the things you have seen and heard: that the blind see, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, the poor have the gospel preached to them.  And blessed is he who is not offended because of Me.”

Jesus knew exactly how to answer the question posed to Him and sent the message to John the Baptist.  We need to stand strong in our faith just as John the Baptist did.  He knew what to look for because God told him and so he was not swayed away from what he knew.

John the Baptist knew that the Coming One had arrived as soon as he heard the message from Jesus.  You need to compare anything seen or heard to what the Bible says about God and Jesus.  Keeping focused on the Word of God will keep your eyes looking for the Coming One and won’t be deceived by posers.

Declaration: I will keep strong in my faith and keep my eyes focused on that which is above and not fall for the lies of media Delilah in the woke culture of the world today.

MERCY, MERCY

TODAY’S PROPHETIC NUMBERS

July 19, 2024 – 07/19/2024
  7 – The Spirit of God
19 – Faith

Micah 7:19-20 (NKJV) He will again have compassion on us, and will subdue our iniquities. You will cast all our sins into the depths of the sea. You will give truth to Jacob and mercy to Abraham, which You have sworn to our fathers from days of old.

MERCY, MERCY

Mercy is given by God based on His judgement.  As Believers, we receive God’s mercy because of the sacrifice of Jesus Christ Who bridges the gap between our humanity and God’s Glory.

Man, I am so grateful that King Jesus gave His life for me and so should you be!  God offers salvation through Christ Jesus and because you accepted His offer, He has written your story in a book before you were born.

Today’s date, 7/19, is also proof of God’s mercy and love for us.  Seven is where the Spirit of God brings us hope and something to look forward to – something that was promised and even commanded. Seven represents something that would surely come to pass. It all has to do with the Spirit of God wrapping something up or perfecting it.

The number nineteen represents faith, but did you know that it also represents God’s judgement to you as well?  Think of Job; when God removed His protection off of Job, satan began to torment Job in every aspect of his life, yet even though Job asks God, “How long will you torment my soul, and break me in pieces with words?” (Job 19:1), Job still keeps his faith in God as written in Job 19:25-26, “For I know that my Redeemer lives, and He shall stand at last on the earth; And after my skin is destroyed, this I know, that in my flesh I shall see God.”

Could you be able to withstand the attacks on your life as Job did and still cry out to God in faith knowing that He has a purpose for what you are going through?  I hope and pray that you do, My Friend, because God does all things for your good and His glory.  Mercy, Mercy!

Declaration: No matter the challenges I face in my life, I will cry out to God, who is my Redeemer!  I will stand on my rock, King Jesus, in the face of anything the enemy wants to throw at me!

THE LORD DELIGHTS IN YOU

TODAY’S PROPHETIC NUMBERS

July 18, 2024 – 07/18/2024
7 – The Spirit of God
18 – (+) Life More Abundantly (-) The Bondage of Sin

Micah 7:18 (NKJV) Who is a God like You, pardoning iniquity and passing over the transgression of the remnant of His heritage?  He does not retain His anger forever, because He delights in mercy.

THE LORD DELIGHTS IN YOU

Zephaniah 3:15-17 (NKJV) The Lord has taken away your judgments, He has cast out your enemy. The King of Israel, the Lord, is in your midst; You shall see disaster no more. In that day it shall be said to Jerusalem: “Do not fear; Zion, let not your hands be weak. The Lord your God in your midst, the Mighty One, will save; He will rejoice over you with gladness, He will quiet you with His love, He will rejoice over you with singing.”

There is no other God like our Redeemer, King Jesus. He is mighty to save and mighty to deliver and restore. We are overcomers through our Lord and Saviour, who went to the cross and made way for us to be healed, delivered, and set free. So, rise in the name of Jesus and take what is rightfully yours through the Blood of King Jesus.

Isaiah 43:25 (NKJV) “I, even I, am He who blots out your transgressions for My own sake; And I will not remember your sins.

All thanksgiving and honor to our King Jesus for all the great things He has done. He has left us the Helper, the Holy Spirit, who comforts us along life’s path.

Declaration: We have overcome the world, and that is our victory. I am filled with the fruit of the Spirit. Love and self-control belong to me.  I will give all thanksgiving and honor to our Lord Jesus Christ!

JESUS IS THE TRUE JUDGE

TODAY’S PROPHETIC NUMBERS

July 17, 2024 – 07/17/2024
  7 – The Spirit of God
17 – Overcoming Victory

Matthew 7:17-18 (NKJV) Even so, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a bad tree bear good fruit.

JESUS IS THE TRUE JUDGE

Matthew 7:21-23 (NKJV) “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. Many will say to Me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?’ And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!’

The scripture above suggests that by their works, they would have a clear road into heaven. The work was done, but they clearly did not have a relationship with the Lord. Jesus is the standard and the true judge.  There is nothing hidden from His sight.

God gave us the gift of Jesus Christ.  The gift of Jesus is not indescribable because there are no words. He is indescribable because there are not enough words to describe the endless ways He is moving.

One of the ways King Jesus is moving is passing true judgment over people and situations.  You should always be on the blessing judgment and not the punishing judgment.

Declaration: I know the Lord because He walks with me and talks with me daily. He guides me along the path I should take.

WHEN GOD GIVES YOU GRAPES, MAKE GOOD CHOICES

TODAY’S PROPHETIC NUMBERS

July 16, 2024 – 07/16/2024
  7 – The Spirit of God
16 – The Love of God

Matthew 7:16 (NKJV) You will know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes from thornbushes or figs from thistles?

WHEN GOD GIVES YOU GRAPES, MAKE GOOD CHOICES

In dreams, trees represent people or leaders.  It is no surprise that Jesus compares us to how fruit grows on trees.  As Believers, we need to grow our roots deep in our faith like a strong Oak tree.

Psalm 1:1-3 (NKJV) Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor stands in the path of sinners, nor sits in the seat of the scornful; But his delight is in the law of the Lord, and in His law he meditates day and night. He shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that brings forth its fruit in its season, whose leaf also shall not wither; And whatever he does shall prosper.

As a Believer, you should continue to grow in your walk with God.  The more time you spend in His word, the deeper your roots grow. You will find that the more of God’s word that you take in your mouth like a scroll or the little book, the way John did in Revelation, the more you will grow good fruits for the Kingdom.  How Awesome is that!

Revelation 10:8-10 (NKJV) Then the voice which I heard from heaven spoke to me again and said, “Go, take the little book which is open in the hand of the angel who stands on the sea and on the earth.”  So I went to the angel and said to him, “Give me the little book.”  And he said to me, “Take and eat it; and it will make your stomach bitter, but it will be as sweet as honey in your mouth.”  Then I took the little book out of the angel’s hand and ate it, and it was as sweet as honey in my mouth. But when I had eaten it, my stomach became bitter.

Being a follower of King Jesus, you are saved by grace and not works, however, as a saved person your walk should automatically provide works or good fruit for the Kingdom as long as you keep yourself in the Word.  You are called for Kingdom Purpose; how will you answer?

Declaration: I will keep in God’s word every day so that my roots grow strong in my faith and will produce good fruit for Kingdom Purpose while I am on in this world.

REST IN HOPE

TODAY’S PROPHETIC NUMBERS

July 15, 2024 – 07/15/2024
  7 – The Flesh of Man
15 – Rest and Overcoming Death

Proverbs 7:15 (NKJV) So I came out to meet you, Diligently to seek your face, And I have found you. 

REST IN HOPE

Fifteen is 3×5. Three represents “perfect completion,” and five represents grace, or God-given ability to overcome something. With the number 15, what you have is grace perfectly completed, where we enter into God’s rest.

When we read Psalm 16, we get some incredible insight into King David’s heart.   When he says, “My heart also instructs me in the night seasons,” he is saying that his heart has learned to be in such close counsel of God that there’s a spillover.  He is connected to Him, even when he is asleep.

Because I focus on the Lord, I set the Lord continuously before me. By finding that God is at my right hand and that He brings great stability to me, I shall not be moved. Focusing upon the Lord will bring you great stability.

When the Lord is at your right hand, it means He’s readily available. Because you are focused on Him, you will find Him involved in your business, relationships, work, and other activities.

Psalm 16:8-9 (NKJV) I have set the Lord always before me. Because He is at my right hand, I shall not be moved. Therefore my heart will be glad, and my glory rejoices, my flesh will also rest in hope.

Everything goes better when the Lord is with us in all aspects of our lives.  There are better outcomes when He is with us. That makes our hearts glad; it also gives us hope for good things so we will rest well.

Declaration: I will diligently seek You, Lord.  In You and You alone, I find rest. You are always at my right hand, so I will stand strong and not be moved off of Your plan and purpose for me.

FROM ONE GENERATION TO ANOTHER

TODAY’S PROPHETIC NUMBERS

July 14, 2024 – 07/14/2024
7 – The Spirit of God
14 – Generational Promises and the Fear of the Lord

Daniel 7:14 (NKJV) Then to Him was given dominion and glory and a kingdom, that all peoples, nations, and languages should serve Him. His dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and His kingdom the one which shall not be destroyed. 

FROM ONE GENERATION TO ANOTHER

Matthew 1:17 (NKJV) So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations, from David until the captivity in Babylon are fourteen generations, and from the captivity in Babylon until the Christ are fourteen generations.

God loves the family unit so much that He placed the Blessing right in the midst of it. God said He will keep covenant and mercy for a thousand generations to those who love and keep His commandments.

Deuteronomy 7:9 (NKJV) “Therefore know that the Lord your God, He is God, the faithful God who keeps covenant and mercy for a thousand generations with those who love Him and keep His commandments”

The fear of the Lord is when you love what God loves and hate what God hates. It is when you unite your passions with His. There are plenty of promises for those who fear the Lord.

See, the fear of God is good, and people try to water it down. Not fearing God will put you in slavery and bondage to the enemy. And your life will be like the prodigal in the mud with the pigs.

Ecclesiastes 7:12 (NKJV) For wisdom is a defense as money is a defense, but the excellence of knowledge is that wisdom gives life to those who have it.

Declaration: I will teach and instruct my family in the ways of the Lord so that none shall stray away.

THE BODY OF CHRIST

TODAY’S PROPHETIC NUMBERS

July 13, 2024 – 7/13/2024
7 – The Spirit of the Lord
13 – Rebellion

Daniel 7:13 (NKJV) “I was watching in the night visions, and behold, One like the Son of Man, Coming with the clouds of heaven!  He came to the Ancient of Days, and they brought Him near before Him.”

THE BODY OF CHRIST

Daniel 7:14 (NKJV) Then to Him was given dominion and glory and a kingdom, that all peoples, nations, and languages should serve Him.  His dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, And His kingdom the one Which shall not be destroyed.

What blessings come when you serve the King of Kings and Lord of Lords!  There is an overflowing satisfaction that wells up in your soul, and your joy is made full.  When you see how God has changed someone’s life for the better, you should be in awe of God.  Part of our walk with God is to share the good news of Jesus Christ’s life, death, and resurrection.

You should be on the lookout for the King of Glory to come and receive you into His presence.  We will all be caught up with King Jesus in the air and our mortality will become immortality.  Until then, we must remember that the church is not a cruise ship but a battleship.  Let us rise up in these dark days and fight for the souls of the lost until the Lord takes us with Him.

Declaration: I will keep watch for King Jesus to return with great expectations of the things to come.  Until then, I will continue to walk out the destiny God created for me before the beginning of time.

GOD IS OUT OF THE BOX

TODAY’S PROPHETIC NUMBERS

July 12, 2024 – 07/12/2024
7 – The Spirit of God
12 – Perfect Government

Matthew 7:12 (NKJV) Therefore, whatever you want men to do to you, also do to them, for this is the Law and the Prophets. 

GOD IS OUT OF THE BOX

When God wants to show us He is ruling and that there is a perfect plan, He likes to use the number 12 in His language.

The Temple of Solomon was built with an outer court, an inner court, and a most holy place. The presence of the Lord is inside the most holy place.

If you weren’t Jewish, you could only go into the court of the Gentiles; that’s as far as most Texans would be able to go.  Then, you had to be a Jew to get into the inner court.  In order to get behind the veil and to get into the actual manifest presence of the Lord, you could be one person, the high priest.

That was the system that Solomon set up, but not so with David.  At the very beginning of David’s story as King, as soon as he began his kingdom, he brought the Lord’s presence in the form of the Ark of the Covenant. It was an incredible box. The Lord himself would become manifest in this God-in-a-box thing. This was a representation, a picture of a type, to teach us that someday we would be the Temple of God.  I’m looking at the temple of God as I look at believers around me.

David’s heart was so fixed on God that he knew God wanted to be with all the people, so, he brought in the Ark, and he didn’t hide it. Everybody had access to the presence of King Jesus. It didn’t matter if you were male or female, a Jew or a Gentile or what race you were, or what position you held in society.  All you had to do was be willing to worship the Lord.

He is the creator of everything, and He wants us to be still and know Him. Connecting with the One who knows everything about everything because He created it is a powerful way to know how our lives work best.

In the morning, before you look at your long list of things that you have to do, before you even get to that, think of ten things that you can do that are out of the box, things that you can do for King Jesus, serving the Lord in your business, in your relationships, in your ministry, in any of those things, and just do this.  Acknowledge He is with you, and He will be with you all day. Come expecting a good day.

Declaration: I will let You govern my day, Lord. I will come into Your presence so You can give me creative ways to walk with You and serve in Your Kingdom.
