GRACE IN THE WAITING ROOM

Acts 1:4
Our Lord Jesus took 14 days continuously teaching them about the dynamics of the kingdom and in one of the teachings he had told them that there will be the coming of the Holy Ghost and they should wait in Jerusalem till the Holy Ghost descended.

-The apostles prayed continuously without a break till the Holy Spirit descended. This enabled them to wait for 10 days

Acts 2:2
During prayer they also had order, they replaced Judius Escariot with Martius to correct the error that was there

John 1:14
Jesus is the grace giver, he is full of grace. As Christians we need to understand who Jesus is so that one doesn't lose heart in life and have faith.

When in the waiting room pray continuously and reflect on your luggage so that the giver of grace may cloth you with grace. His grace will always be sufficient.

2 Corinthians 12:9

God sees what is going on with our lives and he knows it better than us, so worry no more and wait in Jerusalem.

When grace is in you, you need to operate like someone with grace in them.The works of grace bring boldness.

How to access this grace
1.The word of God
2 Timothy 4:13, 2 Timothy 2:15
-Read, teach and preach the word of God like no one's business and no shame when it comes to the word of God.

2.Humility
James 4:6
-When given grace supernatural things begin to happen, you start to have supernatural patience to wait for things to happen in your life. It is important to be humble in order to access the code of grace.

3.Prayer
Hebrews 4:16
-During the waiting season, there's power in prayer.

4.Connect yourself with men of grace
-Some of us we wouldn't be where we are right now if it wasn't for the connections we have with men of God.

GOD SEES INTENTIONS

Prophetic Word of The Day:
“All a person’s ways seem pure to them, but motives are weighed by the Lord.” − Proverbs 16:2 (NIV)

Revelation:
God does not only hear what we say or see what we do, He searches the heart. He sees the posture of one’s heart and their true intentions. It is easy to perform righteousness, try your best to speak the right words in prayer or even make promises to God. However, God is not moved by what we say or do alone. What moves God is the sincerity and right standing of one’s heart. This challenges us to examine not just our prayers, but the “why” behind them. Are you looking for financial breakthrough so you can prove people wrong or is it so you can advance the Kingdom of God? Are you looking for the anointing so you can be famous in the sight of men or so you can use it to point people to Christ? Your intentions determine the weight and quality of your prayer.

It is easy to promise God faithfulness when we are still waiting. We say, “Lord, when You bless me, I will serve You more. When You open that door, I will honor You.” But God, in His wisdom, already sees beyond those words. He knows whether our hearts will remain steadfast or drift once the blessing comes. He weighs our intentions even before the manifestation. A simple prayer, whispered with a genuine heart, carries more weight than many words spoken without pure intentions. When we begin to work on our intentions, something shifts in the effectiveness of our prayers. In that place, we begin to provoke divine favor, not because we have earned it, but because our hearts are aligned with His Kingdom agenda. When your intentions are right, your life becomes a vessel God can trust.

Going Deeper:
Jeremiah 17:10 | Hebrews 4:12 | Matthew 5:8

Prophetic Action:
Take time today to reflect. Ask yourself: Why do I desire what I desire? Lay your intentions before God without fear, because He already knows them. And in His grace, He is willing to purify them.

Prayer:
Heavenly Father, purify my intentions and align my desires with Your will. Remove anything within me that is not pleasing to You. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.

From The Prophetic Library of Dr. Shepherd Bushiri: “In 1 Chronicles 12:18 NKJV, in addition to soldiers from King Saul’s tribe, numerous others also joined David’s army. When David expressed doubt regarding their intentions, they reassured him of their motives. They recognised the evident presence of God’s assistance and favour upon David. Operating within the realm of sure mercies makes the hand of God upon your life unmistakably visible.” – Mercy (PSB, pg. 34, 2023

Intercession: Levite Makgoeng

THE VALLEY GATE

The Valley Gate represents a part of the journey by believers. Important to note about the valley in this book is a platform it provides for testing. When a believer reaches the valley State, testing will take place.

Reference scripture; 1 Samuel 17:34-36

DECLARATIONS AND PRAYER POINTS:
- Father, in the name of Jesus, I thank You for the revelation of the valley gate. Thank You for revealing this gate to me
- Oh Lord Jesus, help me to understand that valley season in my life and let me act appropriately in my season.
- My father, my father, I declare victory over every challenge I face in the valley.
- Lord Jesus, I command every mountain blocking my progress at the valley to collapse right down, in the Mighty name of Jesus Christ.
- Lord Jesus, manifest your power today. Let me see the greatness of Your power as I walk in the valley, in the powerful name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
- Oh Holy Spirit, my comforter; as I walk in the valley, lead me to greener pastures and still waters.
- Every shadow of death, threatening to take away my life, I command you to disappear right now, in the matchless name of Jesus Christ.

The Tongue

The tongue is a blessing and gift God has. given us.
The bible says the tongue can speak good or evil, can build and it can kill. if you are not careful you can kill a neighbor.

James 3:5-10
God wants to be blessed, worshiped by your tongue, speak good things to others by your tongue. The tongue is not only for eating, but also for worship. There is something wrong when you curse with your tongue. God is able to make us speak good and his righteousness.

Proverbs 4:23-25
God knows you're truthful with what you say.

Proverbs 6:16-18
