A STILL SMALL VOICE

A STILL SMALL VOICE 03/03/2021

I KINGS 19:9-18 “And he arose, and did eat and drink, and went in the strength of that meat forty days and forty nights unto Horeb the mount of God.9: And he came thither unto a cave, and lodged there; and, behold, the word of the LORD came to him, and he said unto him, What doest thou here, Elijah? 10: And he said, I have been very jealous for the LORD God of hosts: for the children of Israel have forsaken thy covenant, thrown down thine altars, and slain thy prophets with the sword; and I, even I only, am left; and they seek my life, to take it away. 11: And he said, Go forth, and stand upon the mount before the LORD. And, behold, the LORD passed by, and a great and strong wind rent the mountains, and brake in pieces the rocks before the LORD; but the LORD was not in the wind: and after the wind an earthquake; but the LORD was not in the earthquake:12: And after the earthquake a fire; but the LORD was not in the fire: and after the fire a still small voice.13: And it was so, when Elijah heard it, that he wrapped his face in his mantle, and went out, and stood in the entering in of the cave. And, behold, there came a voice unto him, and said, What doest thou here, Elijah?14: And he said, I have been very jealous for the LORD God of hosts: because the children of Israel have forsaken thy covenant, thrown down thine altars, and slain thy prophets with the sword; and I, even I only, am left; and they seek my life, to take it away.15: And the LORD said unto him, Go, return on thy way to the wilderness of Damascus: and when thou comest, anoint Hazael to be king over Syria:16: And Jehu the son of Nimshi shalt thou anoint to be king over Israel: and Elisha the son of Shaphat of Abel-meholah shalt thou anoint to be prophet in thy room. 17: And it shall come to pass, that him that escapeth the sword of Hazael shall Jehu slay: and him that escapeth from the sword of Jehu shall Elisha slay.18: Yet I have left me seven thousand in Israel, all the knees which have not bowed unto Baal, and every mouth which hath not kissed him.

THE HIGHEST FORM OF WORSHIP IS TO TAKE GOD AT HIS WORD
THE CENTURION WORSHIPPED THE LORD AND SAID SPEAK THE WORD……
MATHEW 8:5-10“And when Jesus was entered into Capernaum, there came unto him a centurion, beseeching him,6: And saying, Lord, my servant lieth at home sick of the palsy, grievously tormented.7: And Jesus saith unto him, I will come and heal him.8: The centurion answered and said, Lord, I am not worthy that thou shouldest come under my roof: but speak the word only, and my servant shall be healed.9: For I am a man under authority, having soldiers under me: and I say to this man, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it.10: When Jesus heard it, he marvelled, and said to them that followed, Verily I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel.

THE WORD OF PROPHECY HAS GONE OUT TO US ALL
ZEPHANIAH 3:13-20 “The remnant of Israel shall not do iniquity, nor speak lies; neither shall a deceitful tongue be found in their mouth: for they shall feed and lie down, and none shall make them afraid.14: Sing, O daughter of Zion; shout, O Israel; be glad and rejoice with all the heart, O daughter of Jerusalem.15: The LORD hath taken away thy judgments, he hath cast out thine enemy: the king of Israel, even the LORD, is in the midst of thee: thou shalt not see evil any more.16: In that day it shall be said to Jerusalem, Fear thou not: and to Zion, Let not thine hands be slack.17: The LORD thy God in the midst of thee is mighty; he will save, he will rejoice over thee with joy; he will rest in his love, he will joy over thee with singing.18: I will gather them that are sorrowful for the solemn assembly, who are of thee, to whom the reproach of it was a burden.19: Behold, at that time I will undo all that afflict thee: and I will save her that halteth, and gather her that was driven out; and I will get them praise and fame in every land where they have been put to shame.20: At that time will I bring you again, even in the time that I gather you: for I will make you a name and a praise among all people of the earth, when I turn back your captivity before your eyes, saith the LORD.

WHY IS IT THAT WE DON’T KNOW HOW TO JUST RECEIVE CHEAP VICTORIES FROM THE LORD?
PART OF THE PROBLEM IS THAT WE DON’T KNOW HOW TO HANDLE PROPHETIC WORDS
MATHEW 15:3-9 “But he answered and said unto them, Why do ye also transgress the commandment of God by your tradition? 4: For God commanded, saying, Honour thy father and mother: and, He that curseth father or mother, let him die the death.5: But ye say, Whosoever shall say to his father or his mother, It is a gift, by whatsoever thou mightest be profited by me; 6: And honour not his father or his mother, he shall be free. Thus have ye made the commandment of God of none effect by your tradition.7: Ye hypocrites, well did Esaias prophesy of you, saying,8: This people draweth nigh unto me with their mouth, and honoureth me with their lips; but their heart is far from me.9: But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.

IF YOU WANT GOD TO DO A NEW THING YOU MUST BELIEVE GOD’S PROPHET
GOD CAN WORK IN ANYWAY HE CHOOSES
IT WAS BY THE WORD OF PROPHECY THAT GOD LEAD THE CHILDREN OF ISRAEL TO EGYPT AND IT WAS BY PROPHECY THAT HE TOOK THEM OUT
WE HAVE BEEN CALLED TO SING, SHOUT AND REJOICE
BUT TRADITION IS VERY DIFFICULT TO BREAK AWAY FROM
GOD TOLD MARY YOU ARE HIGHLY FAVOURED AND SHE GOT PREGNANT
DO YOU KNOW FOR HOW LONG NOAH PREACHED BEFORE THE RAIN FELL? 120 YEARS
ABRAHAM WAS MOVED OUT OF HIS TRADITION BY GOD’S WORD
LEARN TO BREAK AWAY FROM SCIENCE AND TRADITION
YOU MUST BE FLEXIBLE AND OPEN UP YOUR HEART TO HIS WORD IN SEASON
THE SPIRIT AND THE BRIDE SAYS COME
YOU MUST CO-OPERATE WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT
IT IS NOT THE BRIDE ALONE, AND IT IS NOT THE SPIRIT ALONE THAT WILL FULFILL THE WORD
LOOK THE PROPHETIC AND THE APOSTOLIC MINISTRIES ARE NEEDED ON EARTH TODAY
JUST BECAUSE THERE IS COUNTERFEIT PROPHETIC MINISTRIES DOES NOT MEAN THAT THE AUTHENTIC IS DEAD OR NON FUNCTIONAL
YOU WILL NEVER RISE EXCEPT YOU RECEIVE THE APOSTOLIC AND PROPHETIC MINISTRIES
EVEN THE LORD JESUS NEEDED THE PROPETIC VOICE OF JOHN TO RISE
YOU MUST KEY INTO WHAT GOD IS SAYING TO SEE WHAT HE IS DOING NOW
DON’T BE CARELESS, DON’T BE OBSESSED WITH YESTERDAY,DON’T BE OBSESSED WITH FAILURE OF THE PAST YEARS
GET READY FOR VICTORY ,REST AND RESTORATION
DON’T JOKE WITH WHAT YOU ARE HEARING THIS YEAR,DON’T JOKE WITH THE ANCHOR
HOW CAN JESUS TELL THE PEOPLE TO FILL THE POTS WITH WATER WHEN THEY ASKED FOR WINE?
YOU MUST BE WILLING TO RECEIVE AND HONOUR THE PROPHETIC ANOINTING IN THE HOUSE
YOU MUST OPEN UP YOUR HEART TO ANY PROPHETIC FORMULA GOD CHOOSES TO USE FOR YOUR DELIVERANCE
GOD WANTS TO DO A NEW THING IN YOUR LIFE THROUGH THAT ANCHOR
BUT YOU HAVE TO SEE IT AS A WORD OF PROPHECY THAT YOU HAVE TO EMBRACE
THERE ARE CHEAP VICTORIES FOR THE BELIEVER THAT STRICTLY CONNECTS TO THE PROPHETIC AND APOSTOLIC VOICE
IF YOU MUST SUCCEED IN 2021 YOU MUST DO THE FOLLOWING
1. LAY ASIDE YOUR OLD FORMULA FOR RECEIVING OR EVEN WORKING MIRACLES AND EMBRACE THE NEW FORMULA GIVEN TO US IN ZEPHANIAH 3 :13-20
IT DOES NOT MATTER HOW GOD WILL DO IT THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IS THAT HE DOES IT

LET US LOOK AT 2 KINGS 5:8-14 “:8: And it was so, when Elisha the man of God had heard that the king of Israel had rent his clothes, that he sent to the king, saying, Wherefore hast thou rent thy clothes? let him come now to me, and he shall know that there is a prophet in Israel.9: So Naaman came with his horses and with his chariot, and stood at the door of the house of Elisha.10: And Elisha sent a messenger unto him, saying, Go and wash in the Jordan seven times, and thy flesh shall come again to thee, and thou shalt be clean.11: But Naaman was wroth, and went away, and said, Behold, I thought, He will surely come out to me, and stand, and call on the name of the LORD his God, and strike his hand over the place, and recover the leper.12: Are not Abana and Pharpar, rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? may I not wash in them, and be clean? So he turned and went away in a rage.13: And his servants came near, and spake unto him, and said, My father, if the prophet had bid thee do some great thing, wouldest thou not have done it? how much rather then, when he saith to thee, Wash, and be clean?14: Then went he down, and dipped himself seven times in Jordan, according to the saying of the man of God: and his flesh came again like unto the flesh of a little child, and he was clean

ELISHA SAYS THAT NAAMAN SHALL KNOW THAT THERE IS A PROPHET IN ISRAEL
THE APOSTOLIC AND PROPHETIC MINISTRIES ARE TERRITORIAL IN JURISDICTION
GOD DETERMINES THE SPIRITUAL BORDER OF HIS SERVANTS AND THE WORD SPOKEN WILL BE EFFECTIVE THERE
GOD WILL DEFEND THE GRACE AND THE OIL ON THE HEAD OF HIS PROPHETS
NAAMAN DID UNDERSTAND THAT A NEW THING WAS ABOUT TO HAPPEN IN HIS LIFE
HIS EXPECTATION WAS THAT ELISHA WOULD COME AND LAY HANDS ON HIM
WHEN THAT EXPECTATION FAILED HE WAS ANGRY
THAT WAS THE DANGER OF TRADITION
HE WAS LOOKING FOR SERIES ACTION LAYING ON OF HANDS AND FALLING UNDER THE ANOINTING
GOD DOES NOT ALWAYS MOVE IN THE SAME WAY
GOD DOES NOT ALWAYS SPEAK IN A STRONG WIND OR EARTHQUAKE
JESUS NEVER HEALED PEOPLE THE SAME WAY
2 KINGS 5:10-14 “10: And Elisha sent a messenger unto him, saying, Go and wash in the Jordan seven times, and thy flesh shall come again to thee, and thou shalt be clean.11: But Naaman was wroth, and went away, and said, Behold, I thought, He will surely come out to me, and stand, and call on the name of the LORD his God, and strike his hand over the place, and recover the leper.12: Are not Abana and Pharpar, rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? may I not wash in them, and be clean? So he turned and went away in a rage.13: And his servants came near, and spake unto him, and said, My father, if the prophet had bid thee do some great thing, wouldest thou not have done it? how much rather then, when he saith to thee, Wash, and be clean?14: Then went he down, and dipped himself seven times in Jordan, according to the saying of the man of God: and his flesh came again like unto the flesh of a little child, and he was clean
WHEN GOD SPEAKS , DON’T EVER DOUBT OR CORRECT WHAT HE SAYS
YOU MUST OPEN UP YOUR HEART AND APPLY THIS YEARS ANCHOR IF YOU WANT TO SEE THE RESULTS
NAAMAN HAD TO SWALLOW HIS PRIDE AND WASH IN THE OPEN
OBEDIENCE IS BETTER THAN SACRIFICE
GOD WILL AVENGE EVEN DISOBEDIENCE WHEN YOUR OBEDIENCE IS COMPLETE
2 KINGS 5: 14 …. ACCORDING TO THE SAYING OF THE MAN OF GOD

2 KINGS 7:1-20 “Then Elisha said, Hear ye the word of the LORD; Thus saith the LORD, To morrow about this time shall a measure of fine flour be sold for a shekel, and two measures of barley for a shekel, in the gate of Samaria.2: Then a lord on whose hand the king leaned answered the man of God, and said, Behold, if the LORD would make windows in heaven, might this thing be? And he said, Behold, thou shalt see it with thine eyes, but shalt not eat thereof.3: And there were four leprous men at the entering in of the gate: and they said one to another, Why sit we here until we die? 4: If we say, We will enter into the city, then the famine is in the city, and we shall die there: and if we sit still here, we die also. Now therefore come, and let us fall unto the host of the Syrians: if they save us alive, we shall live; and if they kill us, we shall but die.5: And they rose up in the twilight, to go unto the camp of the Syrians: and when they were come to the uttermost part of the camp of Syria, behold, there was no man there. 6: For the Lord had made the host of the Syrians to hear a noise of chariots, and a noise of horses, even the noise of a great host: and they said one to another, Lo, the king of Israel hath hired against us the kings of the Hittites, and the kings of the Egyptians, to come upon us. 7: Wherefore they arose and fled in the twilight, and left their tents, and their horses, and their asses, even the camp as it was, and fled for their life.8: And when these lepers came to the uttermost part of the camp, they went into one tent, and did eat and drink, and carried thence silver, and gold, and raiment, and went and hid it; and came again, and entered into another tent, and carried thence also, and went and hid it.9: Then they said one to another, We do not well: this day is a day of good tidings, and we hold our peace: if we tarry till the morning light, some mischief will come upon us: now therefore come, that we may go and tell the king’s household.10: So they came and called unto the porter of the city: and they told them, saying, We came to the camp of the Syrians, and, behold, there was no man there, neither voice of man, but horses tied, and asses tied, and the tents as they were.11: And he called the porters; and they told it to the king’s house within.12: And the king arose in the night, and said unto his servants, I will now shew you what the Syrians have done to us. They know that we be hungry; therefore are they gone out of the camp to hide themselves in the field, saying, When they come out of the city, we shall catch them alive, and get into the city. 13: And one of his servants answered and said, Let some take, I pray thee, five of the horses that remain, which are left in the city, (behold, they are as all the multitude of Israel that are left in it: behold, I say, they are even as all the multitude of the Israelites that are consumed:) and let us send and see.14: They took therefore two chariot horses; and the king sent after the host of the Syrians, saying, Go and see.15: And they went after them unto Jordan: and, lo, all the way was full of garments and vessels, which the Syrians had cast away in their haste. And the messengers returned, and told the king.16: And the people went out, and spoiled the tents of the Syrians. So a measure of fine flour was sold for a shekel, and two measures of barley for a shekel, according to the word of the LORD.17: And the king appointed the lord on whose hand he leaned to have the charge of the gate: and the people trode upon him in the gate, and he died, as the man of God had said, who spake when the king came down to him.18: And it came to pass as the man of God had spoken to the king, saying, Two measures of barley for a shekel, and a measure of fine flour for a shekel, shall be to morrow about this time in the gate of Samaria:19: And that lord answered the man of God, and said, Now, behold, if the LORD should make windows in heaven, might such a thing be? And he said, Behold, thou shalt see it with thine eyes, but shalt not eat thereof.20: And so it fell out unto him: for the people trode upon him in the gate, and he died.

ELISHAH SAID “ HEAR YE THE WORD OF THE LORD”
IT IS NOT THE WORD OF MAN, BUT THE WORD OF THE LORD
AGAIN THE DANGER OF TRADITION, PRIDE, ARROGANCE COMBINED WITH IGNORANCE MADE THE KING’S OFFICIAL DOUBT THE WORD OF GOD
HOWEVER EVERY TIME PROPHECY IS UTTERED THE SPIRIT OF WISDOM STARTS MOVING TO SEE WHO WOULD CARRY IT OUT
THE 4 LEPERS WERE NOT THERE WHEN THE WORD WAS RELEASED, YET GOD USED THEM TO FULFILL IT
IF SOME OF US HERE WOULD NOT SING, DANCE AND REJOICE GOD WOULD PUT THAT ANNOINTING ON OTHERS AND THEY WOULD BE BLESSED AND RECEIVE ALL THE BREAKTHROUGHS
THE WORD HAS GONE FORTH AND IT MUST COME TO PASS BECAUSEGOD WATCHES OVER HIS WORD TO PERFORM IT JEREMIAH 1:12 “Then said the LORD unto me, Thou hast well seen: for I will hasten my word to perform it.
IF YOU REJECT OR NEGLECT THE WORD , GOD WILL FIND THOSE YIELDED ENOUGH TO SAY “THY WILL BE DONE”
ALL THE HEALTHY MEN THAT HEARD THE WORD OF PROPHECY WERE NOT AVAILABLE TO MAKE IT COME TO PASS
BUT GOD, HAS SAID HE CAN MAKE A WAY WHERE THERE SEEMS TO BE NO WAY,HE USED LEPERS
2 KINGS 7:5-7 “And they rose up in the twilight, to go unto the camp of the Syrians: and when they were come to the uttermost part of the camp of Syria, behold, there was no man there. 7:6: For the Lord had made the host of the Syrians to hear a noise of chariots, and a noise of horses, even the noise of a great host: and they said one to another, Lo, the king of Israel hath hired against us the kings of the Hittites, and the kings of the Egyptians, to come upon us. 7: Wherefore they arose and fled in the twilight, and left their tents, and their horses, and their asses, even the camp as it was, and fled for their life.
THE ENEMY SOLDIERS RAN AWAY INSTEAD OF VERIFYING WHAT THEY HEARD
VERSE 17-19 THE BREAKTHROUGH AND THE JUDGEMENT WERE BOTH PROPHESIED AND BOTH CAME TO PASS
GOD IS ABLE TO TURN YOUR CAPTIVITY OVERNIGHT AS HE HAS PROMISED IN THE ANCHOR
2 CHRONILCES 20:1-30 WRITE IT DOWN WE MAY NOT READ IT
3 NATIONS CAME TOGETHER TO FIGHT JUDAH
THEY SOUGHT THE LORD AND AFTER HEARING HIM SPEAK THEY GATHERED WORSHIPPERS AND SINGERS TOGETHER
VERSE 20-30
THE FORMULA FOR VICTORY WAS PRAISE VERSE 21-23
JUDAH SANG AND PRAISED GOD AND GOT A CHEAP VICTORY BY THE POWER OF THE PROPHETIC WORD
PROPHECIES GET FULFILLED IN STRANGE WAYS
VERSE 24-25 WHO GOES TO WAR WITH PRECIOUS JEWELS AND RICHES?
WHEN GOD IS READY TO DELIVER HIS PEOPLE HE CAN DO STRANGE THINGS
GOD SET THE ENEMIES UP TO BLESS HIS PEOPLE
THE CHILDREN OF JUDAH SPENT THREE DAYS GATHERING THE SPOILS, NOT 3 DAYS FIGHTINGS
VERSE 28-30 MAY THIS BE YOUR TESTIMONY AS YOU PRAISE AND WORSHIP GOD IN THIS SEASON
MAY WE CHEAPLY GET RESULTS THAT WOULD HAVE COME THROUGH LABOUR ,PAIN AND SACRIFICE IN JESUS NAME
YOU MUST LIFT UP YOUR VOICE IN PRAISES AND DANCES, ACCORDING TO THE FORMULA FOR THIS SEASON
GOD WANTS TO DO A NEW THING IN OUR LIVES , FAMILIES, FINANCES, AND BRING US TO THE REALM OF REST
PSALM 46 BE STILL AND KNOW THAT HE IS THE LORD

PRAYERS

LUKE 5:5 5: “And Simon answering said unto him, Master, we have toiled all the night, and have taken nothing: nevertheless at thy word I will let down the net.”
AND SIMON SAID MASTER WE HAVE TOILED ALL NIGHT AND HAVE TAKEN NOTHING, NEVERTHELESS AT THY WORD, I WILL LET DOWN THE NET
FATHER WE HAVE FASTED, AND HOPED AND PRAYED AND HOPED WITHOUT MUCH RESULT
BUT NOW AT YOUR WORD WE PRAISE AND WORSHIP AND THANK YOU, FOR POWERFUL TESTIMONIES AND RESTORATION
BEGIN TO THANK GOD AS YOU SAY NEVERTHELESS AT THY WORD I BELIEVE
AM HEALED, DELIVERED, FAVOURED ETC
NOW PRAY IN TONGUES AND SING “ NOW THANK WE ALL OUR GOD”
