Mandela Movie

"… for us there is only ONE GOD, the Father, Who is the Source of all things and from Whom we have life, and one Lord, Jesus Christ, through and by Whom are all things and through and by Whom we ourselves exist."

There is a fight for the kingship of South Africa and God is looking for those who will establish and proclaim His Kingship over our nation!

CURRENT: CONFUSION,  REJECTION AND IDOLATRY

Two weeks ago I felt a change in the atmosphere and as I spoke to individuals and ministered to groups of people, I saw that many people currently struggles with major rejection finding it hard to overcome it.  At the same time many individuals said that they don't know where they belong, or what their position is, or what is expected of them, whether physically, emotionally, socially or spiritually.  This was around the time when we had to register for the 2014 elections.

When I prayed about this, the Lord revealed that the politicians are currently scrambling for positiontrying to get the people of SA to align with them and believe that they are the answer to our problems.  The promises, some real and some just wind, is filling the atmosphere trying to land in the hearts and minds of people which will position them for the coming term with a specific leader if they accept the promises and conditions! 

Many of the politicians want to become our savior and therefor our idol, a false God!  If we dare to look at people to be the answer for us, we will strengthen idolatry in this nation.

An idol is NOTHING, there is only ONE GOD!

"... we know that an idol is nothing and that there is no God but ONE.  For although there may be so-called gods, whether in heaven or on earth, as indeed there are many of them, both of gods and of lords and masters, yet for us there is only one God, the Father, Who is the Source of all things and from Whom we have life, and one Lord, Jesus Christ, through and by Whom are all things and through and by Whom we ourselves exist."

1 Cor 8:4-6 

God is the GOD of South Africa and South Africa shall SERVE the Kingdom of God!  

Only if we understand that, we will be rightly positioned as ambassadors and representatives of the Kingdom of God in South Africa.

Daniel 7:27 says "And the kingdom and the dominion and the greatness of the kingdom under the whole heavens shall be given to the people of the saints of the Most High; His kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and all the dominions shall serve and obey Him."

Therefor, do not incline your ear to the voice of the enemy and be overcome with fear and insecurity like the Israelites were when Goliath intimidated them with his voice!

2 Timothy 1:7 says "For God did not give us a spirit of timidity (of cowardice, of craven and cringing and fawning fear), but He has given us a spirit of POWER and of LOVE and of a SOUND MIND (calm and well-balanced mind and discipline and self-control)."

This is not a time to step back and not take part in the elections.  If you vacate your position in SA the enemy will certainly fill it and gain strength.

MANDELA MOVIE

The movie "Mandela: The long walk to freedom" will be released in SA on the 28th of November.  Can the release of this movie just before the elections be incidental?  This movie has the potential to release and empower a sound of hatred, anger, racism and division, as well as a smell of death over South Africa.

God's heart for South Africa is reconciliation and unity among the people groups until we rise up in acorporate anointing to impact Africa and other nations with God's love and hope.

Nelson Mandela says in the movie "People learn to hate, but they can be taught to love. For love comes more naturally to the human heart".  

Let us pray that God will use this movie to release His sound of love and forgiveness over South Africa; that the enemy will have no voice through this movie; that the people will experience the power of love and forgiveness, and that they will CHOOSE LIFE and NOT DEATH for our nation, in the Name of Jesus!

Let us bless all the people groups of South Africa from the day of release of this movie, and let us change the atmosphere of South Africa to an atmosphere of love, hope and vision.

"But thanks be to God, Who in Christ ALWAYS leads us in triumph and through us spreads the FRAGRANCE OF THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOD everywhere, for we are the SWEET FRAGRANCE of Christ unto God, among those who are saved and among those who are perishing;..." 2 Cor 2:14

PRAY GOD'S HEART

This is a time to PRAY GOD'S HEART over SOUTH AFRICA and pray that God will be the One Who will appoint the leaders of South Africa.  Pray and ask the Lord for whom you should vote.

PROPHETIC WORDS ABOUT SA

Let us proclaim God's prophetic words over SA and through these proclamations changing the atmosphere and releasing the fragrance of God over SA.

1.  God said that SA will be a FATHER and a LIGHT to the continent of Africa.

Let's pray:

*  that God will appoint leaders who will be TRUE FATHERS, first of all to our nation and then to the other nations of Africa

-  Fathers after God's own heart, who will LOVE the people God entrusted to them.  

-  Fathers who will TAKE CARE OF and PROTECT the women and children of the nation.

-  Fathers who will RAISE UP SONS who will know how to protect and provide

-  Fathers with a heart of reconciliation and peace.

*  that the lies of the enemy operating in our governing systems will be exposed and replaced with God's TRUTH.  God's Word, His Truth is the Light.  Only if we walk in the TRUTH, we will be a light!

2.  For many years South Africans travelled extensively to other nations to experience the move of God, but God said that other nations will flock to South Africa to experience the move of God in our nation.

Let us pray:

* that the Holy Spirit, the Spirit of Truth, will come upon the peoples of SA and remove the veil of lies keeping them in bondage

* that SA will not look to man for our salvation but to God.  Jesus already paid the price for every person in this nation and this nation belongs to Him.

* pray that God will make the people of SA tired of greed, corruption, violence, hatred and anger, rejection.  Pray that they will rise up in righteousness, love and peace, seeking the ways of God.

CHOOSE LIFE!

Only when you choose life you will be able to release life!  No matter what happens around you, ask the Holy Spirit to show you His life in that situation, and CHOOSE LIFE so that you and your descendants may live!

I bless you to know God's heart and to hear the voice of the Holy Spirit in every situation in your life.  I bless you with the strength to CHOOSE LIFE and to be a releaser of the LOVE of God.

I bless you to be the sweet fragrance of Christ wherever you go and to drive out the smell of death, hopelessness and despair.

In the beautiful Name of Jesus!
