THIS TOO SHALL PASS !
Citizens of The Haven Global Church, the month of MARCH was prophetically declared as the month of THE STORM IS OVER. On Sunday 3rd of March 2024 we came together for our Prophetic, Thanksgiving and Anointing gathering hosted by Serving Senior Pastors - Apostle John and Prophetess Josephine Enumah partnered with Mr Holy Ghost. We gathered ONLINE :@thehavenuk :@thehavendallastx and PHYSICALLY: Vincent Street, Canning Town, London, E16 1LZ.
FOCUS WORD: THIS TOO SHALL PASS
Scriptural text - 2 Corinthians 4 -18
We learnt that God does not speak without an intention or desire towards us. Jeremiah 29:11 - "For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end." We understand that without understanding this scripture, your faith can be rattled when the storm arises. The presence of God is not the absence of battles, storm or warfare it is the presence of God that silences these storms in our lives.
Storm can be define as a forceful disturbance. Apostle John helped us understand that when a storm is present a man's peace is stolen, joy is hard to come by.
2 Corinthians 12:2 - "I knew a man in Christ above fourteen years ago, (whether in the body, I cannot tell; or whether out of the body, I cannot tell: God knoweth;) such an one caught up to the third heaven." This bible verse makes reference to Apostle Paul speaking about the third heaven. This realm is the realm of God but there are two other heavenly realms mentioned in the bible and as long as you find yourself in this realm there is storm.
The Realm of Man - this is where there is competition for power - it can be fighting against another man or principalities. Ephesians 6:12 - "For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places." When we accept Jesus Christ into our lives we become a main target for the enemy. Your faith is a target of the enemy as it says in 1 John 5:4 - "For whosoever is born of God overcometh the world. And this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith." A faith that is not proven is fake, it cannot be counted unto you as faith, if your faith has not been through a storm.
2 Corinthians 4:13 - 'It is written in the Scriptures, I believed, so I spoke. Our faith is like this, too. We believe, and so we speak." The scripture tells us about the spirit of faith; many believers' faith have been limited and capacitated because of something they went through in life. There are many that have withdrawn from the faith because of something they went through in life - by a forceful disturbance that attacked their faith in God. Confessing your faith in God is meaningless if you have not being tried and tested.
The bible encourages us to put on the full armour of God - putting on your full armour of God means you should always be dressed up for battle. as a believer we should not be without the armour of God because the enemy is restless, Apostle John Enumah warned us to counter the devices of the devil we cannot be a part time Christian; fighting a full time enemy who is always after our life. Job 1:7 - "And the Lord said unto Satan, Whence comest thou? Then Satan answered the Lord, and said, From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it." To be great in life you must have a story of a seasonal storm.
From the place of PROPHECY to the place of PERFORMANCE one must go through the PROCESS - that process comes with a storm but when you stand with God you become irremovable. God speaks from a perspective that makes wise men look foolish. That is why when you are to fly out of a storm you must have the perspective of an eagle - your perspective in life determines your reality. Apostle John Enumah left us with the encouraging words that we should not let yesterday's storm keep us from enjoying today's sunshine! The storm is not meant to keep you living in yesterday pain. Remember temporary solution does not bring lasting peace and temporary gift does not bring lasting peace. It is when you carry a prophecy that is when the storm begins.
Note these SIX DISTURBANCES that can occur in life:
The Type of the Disturbance
The Size of the Disturbance
The Severity of the Disturbance
The Intensity of the Disturbance
The Frequency of the Disturbance
The Timing of Operations
Engage these prophetic prayers for the storm in your life to cease:
Heavenly Father, as I begin to pray, Oh Lord, every troubled water against my life; peace be still in the name of Jesus!
Heavenly Father, as I begin to pray, Oh Lord, in this season I choose not to remember the former things but I now receive new things from You in the name of Jesus!
Heavenly Father, as I begin to pray, Oh Lord, I receive clearance to fly; I receive clearance to ascend; I receive clearance to take off in this season and take flight in the name of Jesus!
