Do you know that you have a crucial role to play in this hour? God breathed life into you and set you on this earth for a very specific and profound function. We have been mandated to propel His Kingdom forward. We must understand our influence, exercise our authority and occupy our rightful place as kings and priests. The Lord is calling us to stand and align with Him in these unprecedented times to reveal a different world to those around us. Our Mission Demands Change. We have not been changing the way we do Aglow to keep up with the trends or for the sake of changing. We have been doing it so we can step forward into our God-given mission, which is to live from the presence of God, creating the same atmosphere on earth as it is in heaven. Breaking traditions, establishing a kingdom culture in Aglow, learning about how heaven sees us, forming apostolic teams and transforming our way of doing ministry have been essential steps in that direction. Change Is A Means, Not A Goal. Change for the sake of change never works. Change detached from the mission brings frustration, conflicts, burnout and failure simply because change is not a goal but a means to a goal. Moving forward must always be about our God-given mission. Only the mission is strong enough to help us make the right changes, motivate us to initiate those changes, keep us encouraged in the middle of long-term change and bring about the needed results of the change. What do you need to change to see God’s promises fulfilled in your life, your home, or the community where God has called you to be? This is a time for the Ecclesia to be courageous and release faith in the atmosphere of our nation. Our commitment to intercession and the decrees we make is the game changer and will eventually make all the difference. God is calling us to higher levels of legislative responsibility through intercession. The good news is that Christ’s resurrection and ascension have secured the beachhead in the enemy’s territory. And now through His Ecclesia, the invasion has begun. Despite temporary setbacks, no satanic authority can, or will, withstand the advancement of God’s Kingdom in the world. “And this is the confidence that we have toward Him, that if we ask anything according to His will He hears us. And if we know that He hears us in whatever we ask, we know that we have the requests that we have asked of Him.” (1John 5:14-15) As we continue to declare His Lordship over us, be confident that Christ will: Guide us Empower us to live victorious in Him Reveal mysteries Manifest His power through us Confirm His word with signs following Save the lost Restore Prayer Lord, I ask that You open heavenly portals over every house of Aglow across Canada. I ask that You initiate seasons and strategic times of divine encounters that will yield supernatural insight into the unseen realm when Your people gather together to do Your will. And I ask that they triumph over darkness – that You invade their realm, give them insight, supply them with passion and equip them to be formidable people of prayer that will shift the atmosphere of our nation into Your Kingdom realities. In Jesus’ name, amen. Love you dearly, Danyele |
