God’s Word to CMFI for 2023

1 Rhema 2023: Isaiah 60:1-22

Thus says the Lord to CMFI:

1. Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord rises upon you.
2. See, darkness covers the earth and thick darkness is over the peoples, but the Lord rises upon you and his glory appears over you.
3. Nations will come to your light, and kings to the brightness of your dawn.
4. “Lift up your eyes and look about you: All assemble and come to you; your sons come from afar, and your daughters are carried on the arm.
5. Then you will look and be radiant, your heart will throb and swell with joy; the wealth on the seas will be brought to you, to you the riches of the nations will come.
6. Herds of camels will cover your land, young camels of Midian and Ephah. And all from Sheba will come, bearing gold and incense and proclaiming the praise of the Lord.
7. All Kedar’s flocks will be gathered to you, the rams of Nebaioth will serve you; they will be accepted as offerings on my altar, and I will adorn my glorious temple.
8. “Who are these that fly along like clouds, like doves to their nests?
9. Surely the islands look to me; in the lead are the ships of Tarshish, bringing your sons from afar, with their silver and gold, to the honor of the Lord your God, the Holy One of Israel, for he has endowed you with splendor.
10. “Foreigners will rebuild your walls, and their kings will serve you. Though in anger I struck you, in favor I will show you compassion.
11. Your gates will always stand open, they will never be shut, day or night, so that men may bring you the wealth of the nations—their kings led in triumphal procession.
12. For the nation or kingdom that will not serve you will perish; it will be utterly ruined. The glory of Lebanon will come to you, the pine, the fir and the cypress together, to adorn the place of my sanctuary; and I will glorify the place of my feet.
13. The sons of your oppressors will come bowing before you; all who despise you will bow down at your feet and will call you the City of the Lord, Zion of the Holy One of Israel.
14. “Although you have been forsaken and hated, with no one traveling through, I will make you the everlasting pride and the joy of all generations.
15. You will drink the milk of nations and be nursed at royal breasts. Then you will know that I, the Lord, am your Savior, your Redeemer, the Mighty One of Jacob.
16. Instead of bronze I will bring you gold, and silver in place of iron. Instead of wood I will bring you bronze, and iron in place of stones. I will make peace your governor and righteousness your ruler.
17. No longer will violence be heard in your land, nor ruin or destruction within your borders, but you will call your walls Salvation and your gates Praise.
18. The sun will no more be your light by day, nor will the brightness of the moon shine on you, for the Lord will be your everlasting light, and your God will be your glory.
19. Your sun will never set again, and your moon will wane no more; the Lord will be your everlasting light, and your days of sorrow will end.
20. Then will all your people be righteous and they will possess the land forever. They are the shoot I have planted, the work of my hands, for the display of my splendor.
21. The least of you will become a thousand, the smallest a mighty nation. I am the Lord; in its time I will do this swiftly.” NIV 

2 Rhema 2023: A Word of Wisdom

Thus says the Lord:

The nation and the nations shall know increasing and deepening crises, confusion and depression, political, social, economic and financial reverses and contradictions.

I will rebuke and humble the arrogance of leaders and nations and their prognostications.

I will confound men and nations and I will be exalted as only Lord and God.

I will be acknowledged as only Lord and God.

I will bring down the pride and the lofty boasting of men and nations!!!

O, My children, give Me your hearts and your total attention, your concentration, your love and rejoice in the Lord your God only.

The false hopes and vain confidences of the world, the false promises and securities of the world will crumble and all who have loved and put their trust in the world, in this passing world will know disappointment, disillusionment, and depression but all who trust in the Lord shall be upheld and rejoice!!

Behold darkness and confusion in the nations, but My children shall rejoice and prosper abundantly.

Behold, judgments, and plagues in their Egypts but light and prosperity in Goshen among My people.

The nations shall mourn and be afflicted but My servants and consecrated ones shall rejoice and prosper and exalt their God and rejoice in Him.

Behold, darkness covers the nations but My servants shall walk in My light and in hope. My children shall arise and shine in My light and power!

O, My children, I am your satisfaction and fullness.

O, My children, I am your light and your joy.

O, children, walk in My light and triumph and overcome and prosper.

O, beloved children, your hour has come, arise.

Your hour has come, your season of harvest.

Your hour has dawned, the time of great harvest, your season of great harvest and opportunities is now upon you.

O, children, arise, arise, arise for the Lord!

Arise as champions;

Arise as heroes;

Arise as the Lord’s champions and heroes.

Arise with courage, boldness, and simple faith and I will back you with My power; And I will back you with My presence and I will give you abundant fruit beyond your imaginations!!!

The time has come to reap from territories from which principalities and powers have been overthrown, and especially from the territories where the three hosts of wickedness have been dismantled forever.

Arise and reap My abundant harvest.

Advance in boldness and behold the power of God.

Act in faith and you will witness My miracles.

O, My children, you have fasted and prayed and believed.

Now, I want you to arise and go forth in faith, and go forth in courage and reap My harvest, My glorious and mighty harvest for you.

I call for many harvesters and for all to go for the harvest.

I command My leaders to mobilise all our people for the harvest, for the harvest I have given to you.

Many of you are qualified to contain the harvest.

I have enlarged your capacities to contain the harvest and I will enlarge your capacities to contain the massive and abundant harvest I am giving to you.

Believe Me and act;

Believe Me and go forth boldly;

Believe and you will see what I will do.

O, My children, the times are desperate and the season of harvest will not wait for you.

Act now, go now;

Act urgently;

Act immediately.

There are global forces and powers labouring to ruin and destroy multitudes in a short time. The enemy is enraged at the setback in his agenda of global domination and destruction. You must arise and act now with courage and faith.

Do not look at yourself, do not look to others.

Do not dwell on your past or your failures.

Do not be discouraged by your weaknesses or your poverty.

Do not be concerned with the rumours and fears of what will happen to the nations.

I am the Lord, the Almighty, and I am with you.

I have provided in the past and I will provide for you.

I will provide for your needs and for your work.

I will provide far beyond your needs and far beyond what you need for your work.

I will make My abundance and wealth to follow you as you follow My harvest.

You will lack nothing for the work and for your needs.

I am the Lord; I am your guarantor.

I am the guarantor for all your needs.

O, My children, O, My beloved;

Some of your leaders have died and gone to their rest.

Come out of your fears;

Come out of your doubts;

Come out of your suspicions, for your lives are hid with God in Christ Jesus.

No harm will befall you from the enemy;

No hurt will come to My obedient servants.

I am the Guarantor of your lives, the Lord of life and death and you are in My palms!!!

Your leaders have died so that you can together with them enter into the goal and all the promises of God.

I have called them home and I have called you to work and to My work.

Come with Me into My work as they have come with Me home.

I am the Lord.
