Tongues and Interpretation (1)
“I show My pattern, pattern, pattern, men pattern, pattern men, pattern men. I am raising you even as men who should mirror the pattern, even the pattern of sacrifice, pattern of love, even pattern, pattern, pattern of great sacrifice, even such that Jesus wore in the days of His flesh. I am raising you as men of great love, men of great sacrifice, great love, even men of great sacrifice, great love, great sacrifice, men with large heart, men with heart of the Father. For I am configuring you into entities, even men who can love, even their enemies, men who can save men by the largeness of their heart, the conscriptions of their heart, that the Father worked even for to be a father to many. Even for to father a work that is apostlic in nature. A work that is prophetic in nature cannot be successful without a heart. even heart, even heart, even a heart that is large, even a heart that embraces all, embraces all, even the good and the bad, even those that speak evil of you, even such is the attitude of Paul the Apostle to all that malign them. I am giving such heart, I have brought you here even to come into an experience of great grace so that you can excel, even the work that has been placed in your hands may excel and prosper again. Enter, enter, enter into a season of grace, enter into a season of great dominion, dominion over spirits that have subjugated men, spirits that have subdued men even will come under your influence, will come under your authority, will come under the power of the spirit that is upon you. I engrace you again, I put spirit upon you, I put spirit upon you, you are not going empty. I see your sacrifice and I reward you with great grace, I put spirit upon you, I reward you with great grace, I reward you with great authority, even authority in the spirit to subdue spirits, even surmount hurdles, even to climb up, walk in your high places, mount up, forward, upright, trajectory in grace.”

It is a privilege to be in this waters, it is a stream debris has been dumped in. It is a well noone wants to drink from. The theme is not just a theme, it is a person.
Tongues and Interpretation (2)
“I am Jesus, I am Jesus, I am Jesus, I am Jesus the Son, the Son of God. Jesus the Son, Jesus the pattern for many, for all men. I am all men, I have diversities, I am many sided, I have different streams. I have multiple waters that flow into one and out of one. I am many things, I am many things, I am Jesus, I am many flavours, I am many aromas, many flavours, many savours and I have come to bless you with all that I am. Even all that I am to release all of my fragrances, all of My fragrances even among you, even in the meekness of My person which I have also brought to you. For yea, you will take all these flavours with you wherever you go. For yea, this is the blessing, even a huge part of the blessing, even of this convention, I am blessing you with Jesus, blessing you with Jesus, blessing you with Myself.”

Jesus is come, Jesus has been coming, Jesus is come now and He will come.
1 Peter 1:12
“Unto whom it was revealed, that not unto themselves, but unto us they did minister the things, which are now reported unto you by them that have preached the gospel unto you with the Holy Ghost sent down from heaven; which things the angels desire to look into.”
This is the generation that the prophets prophesied of but unfortunately, we are that are the chosen trivialise the opportunity, we handle it with levity. Jesus has come to deal with sin and give us strength to do His purposes. Everything in life is for a purpose, the Jews went round for a long time because they did not learn their lesson.
Without suffering there is no glory, there are things that would happen to us for us to inherit glory (1 Peter 1:11). When we see very sure that it is the Lord permitting the suffering, allow tears to flow but hold tenaciously to Him. This is why the spirit of God has been given to us that we should know the things that are freely given to us. The spirit of God within us is the conviction and persuasion of the things the Lord has planned for us.
The world is full of Truth, those who kill and do all manner of evils have their reasons. But there is the truth that surpasses every other thing, that Truth is God. Things have been written in us. Challenges will come our way, we must not let it rob us of our blessings. It is when we remain there that we will have the strength to obey. When we obey, an irreversible covenant is being enacted that we have the strength.
The true life is in the Son of God – the life that will enable us attain. There are many things we will hear that we may not understand but we ought not to turn back. When it gets hot and we run away, we are running away from the Prince of Peace.
We can know the Only true God and in Him is Eternal life.
John 17:3
“And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.”
If we do not know God we do not have life eternal. New birth does not accrue to us that we know God. We must learn God through Jesus, Jesus has come to open a new avenue for to learn God. Entrance needs some sacrifices. The way is narrow and our bags and baggages would not let us enter.
We must come to a place of trusting Him where we allow Him to do His work, it can be painful but we should allow God. Despite life challenges we must receive grace to get up and continue. We must hold unto God, it is the commandment of God that we should hold Him. There are many things we do not understand yet. We ought not to wait till we understand but we should keep obeying God. The way to eternal life is by obedience. Every step we take in obeying the word of God, a covenant is being enacted. A covenant that will secure us.
Jesus has come for the restitution of all things (Acts 3:21). There is a portal and allocation that is tied to Jesus’ coming. If we allow Jesus to restore all things that are tied to this season, we will be able to move on. This is why Jesus is praying for us that we may be saved to the uttermost. If we are not saved to the uttermost, we may make heaven but when we look at the church of God will see people who are maimed We are here for a purpose – to show principalities and powers what God wants to make us to be. Jesus has come to deal with the mystery of sin. God wants us to walk according to the Word of God.
We should walk to deny all.ungodliness, that we may be able to align with His plan amd purpose for our lives. That we should be empowered to embody God. It is an honour that God chose man for His habitation. We must be able to resolve to follow God. We must seek and allow God to change us before we can influence the world. We have been empowered to overcome the devil.
Exodus 32:27
“And he said unto them, Thus saith the Lord God of Israel, Put every man his sword by his side, and go in and out from gate to gate throughout the camp, and slay every man his brother, and every man his companion, and every man his neighbour.”
Luke 14:26
“ If any man come to me, and hate not his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple.”
If we do not hate the things that we should in ourselves, we will go to kill our parents thinking we are serving God. The Sons of Levi reversed the curses that was placed on them in Genesis 49:5-7. We are here to reverse curses, DNAs, history.
Iniquity is the last thing God is dealing with, it is difficult because man is still holding on to it. It is what we inherited but God is giving us strength to deal with iniquities. Image is for all of us, God is taking us to the image of His Son where we would acquire the nature and character of Jesus. He has done everything for us to also become exactly like Him. Jesus went down than every other man, He has paved the way for every man to come to God. He has gone through it all so that there can never be any inhibition or anything to hinder us.
