PROPHETIC PREACH GIVEN SATURDAY 26TH APRIL
NEW CHURCH OPENING BUT A PROPHETIC WORD FOR THE WHOLE BODY.
This word was a complete eye opener to me when I prepared to speak at our 4th Church opening. The Lord was quickening to me the significance of His Ways in building the spiritual temple on the earth. This spiritual temple has gone from tents to stone, and from stone to hearts. The Lord has risen up a temple that is invisible to the visible eye, but is real in the realm of the Spirit. This realm of the Spirit shall become visible in the new dispensation of a new heaven and new earth.
If you look at the picture above, you will see the two pillars at the front. You will see them and they are very significant. They are jachin and boaz. Their names are indicative of the principles which undergird the work of planting a “habitation for the Lord”.
So much talk of revivals here and there. So much for, and so much against, but I am not about to comment on them, swaying our attention away from the Lord and His Word. For some part we must be like Gamaliel, who wisely counselled in the days of the Early Church. He said if the MOVEMENT IS OF GOD, IT SHALL PROSPER AND LAST, IF NOT IT SHALL DIE. We do not need to debate all the time. Just wait and watch.
Jachin and Boaz, the pillars are indispensible in any new work, in any new ministry, in any new project. Without them the work will fall.
Jachin: He will establish…The Lord establishes that which is His Plan, which reflects His Nature, that which reflects and manifests His Attributes. He chooses the vessels…He chooses a people who were not, to be. It has always been the case. When I researched the Welsh Revival of 1904, the prophecy of Seth Joshua, the prayer, that God would raise up a MINER from the mines. God indeed raised up Evan Roberts from the mines. He prayed that God would bend him, 14 years of prayer, and it was in the youth meeting that God visited in MIGHTY power that brought in 4 years 100,000 souls to the Lord. God established, God raised up, and God empowered for this mighty move.
Today the Lord will establish, what He establishes stands, what He establishes He comes down in Glory, what He establishes He prospers, what He establishes impacts communities.
If it is of man it shall fail. What man says is of God, time will tell.
Solomon was chosen by God to raise up the temple of the Lord. He followed the vision that was handed down by his father, David. David was a man after God’s heart, who put distance between Israel and its enemies, so that the next generation would have rest. So it is needed today, the revival comes with 2 generations. Let us plan ahead, plan for our children, that they may raise up a house that we only dreamt of. Our thirst to build is sometimes denied, because the purest motives are when we hand down our dreams to our children, so that they receiving our dreams, may raise up purely before the Lord. He followed each plan to the letter. He obeyed the heavenly vision, seen on the Mount. Not Mount Sinaii, but Mount Moriah which was to become Zion.
It is interesting to note that the Revival in Wales started in Moriah Chapel in Loughor. God chose Moriah to touch the Earth. Not just once, in 1000BC, but in 1904AD. Where is Moriah today? It where the two pillars of God are raised up!
Where has God established? That is where I want to be! I do not want to be a revival chaser, because God said SIGNS SHALL FOLLOW THOSE WHO BELIEVE. Therefore REVIVAL FOLLOWS WHERE THOSE ARE MOVING IN GOD’S BUILDING PROJECT OF THAT INVISIBLE TEMPLE!
Boaz: In it is STRENGTH…The 2nd pillar is called boaz. It is showing us that our strength, our consistency is in that which God establishes. Therefore, we must analyze, what is the thing which God established with us, that is where our STRENGTH WILL LIE. That is where our provision lies. That is where our joy and our courage lies. The reason why we become weak and fragile, is because we are confusing ourselves by doing what God did not establish for us to do. God tells us in Ephesians 2 that we are His Workmanship with preordained works planned for us to do…If we are doing what God did not call us to do, then we are working in vain…hence Psalm 127 says if God did not raise the house, they work in vain those who raise it. Indeed today there is much talk of the things men are raising up, instead of thinking about what God has established. Because every Church which is built on ambition, on whim, shall fall. It will not fall because God is vindictive, but because it will not stand the trials of time.
Kenneth Hagin spoke to a generation of ministers in 1930. Told them that he would outlive them all in ministry. They asked him why. He told them, that they were preaching words based on gifts and ministries and things which God was doing that day, but that they should concentrate on preaching the WHOLE COUNSEL OF GOD! That way they would have ministerial longevity.
The Revival in Wales spread to Los Angeles and S.Francisco of 1906, birthing the whole Pentecostal movement. But when a movement becomes a monument, God no longer establishes, no longer gives them the strength, because they have forgotten that they must concentrate on the ESTABLISHMENT OF THE CHURCH, not projects, not ministries, not businesses…but the CHURCH MANIFESTED IN ALL THESE.
The reason why there is sickness and lack in the Body, is because there is no establishing because there is no heart after God, and because there is no obedience, there is sickness and lack. Where God establishes, there is great grace and provision.
Therefore, in conclusion, let us ask God to give us the vision to raise up the two pillars.
This message was accompanied with salvations, and tremendous Presence of God.

This message was given to me yesterday, very powerfully in our vigil. We got home at the dawn. So wonderful to be seeking the Lord in times of great expectancy. The Lord has given me this prophetic message to guide us into the revival God desires. The Lord took me to 1 Kings 18:31, to see the 12 stone altar as a guide to seeking revival. We must seek to build an altar of prayer and intercession. Only this way will God respond.
What do the 12 stones mean?
1. Covenant: It is necessary we enter into a covenant, a specific covenant for revival.
2. Word: Make a commitment to base our prayer on the Word.
3. Repentance: This is a very very important step. We must change our ways, our mentalities and our perspectives.
4. Prayer: No prayer, no revival. There has to be a change in the way we pray.
5. Fasting: Deny the flesh her desires, this brings us into spiritual priorities.
6. Seeking: This means seeking and knocking till God answers.
7. Persevering : There will be hindrances, the devil, the world, the flesh will try to distract.
8. Determining: To only satisfy ourselves with God’s answer.
9. Travailing: Bringing to birth in our spirit God’s desire, His Cry, His Longing.
10. Boldness: We must be bold, we must have audacity in His Presence.
11. Audacity: Being strong and being forthright…God likes it.
12. Faith: Without faith there are no mountains moved.
I believe this is the key and hope this helps you. The response to all this, was that God answered by fire. This is what we desire.
