Royal Priesthood Ministries International, Malawi

Royal Priesthood Ministries International, Malawi This is a church based missionary society of revival and transformation, based in Blantyre, Malawi. The rainbow within the triangle represents the glory of God.

The vision is explained as follows:-

The triangle represents the Trinity, God the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Here is our source of authority and power in Him. The stars are the people of God whom the Lord wants to reflect His glory as was originally shown to Abraham in early Jewish history; people of every nation. The black letters in the centre the Lord descibed as "aggravations", or powers of

darkness which are stopping the Lord's people from reaching their full potential and as such need to be dealt with. The Scripture John 3:16 was to demonstrate the love of God for His people and to command us to preach the Gospel. This vision, given with the foundation Scripture of Isaiah 61, commissions us to seek restoration for individuals, revival for the church generally and transformation of the nations to which the Lord will send us. HISTORY

Our ministry started in October, 2008 with a group of five pastors. The work has grown and we now minister in churches north and south of Blantyre together with many churches in the Lower Shire Region. Our base is at Chileka Road on the way to the airport. Our ministry is based on Ephesians 4:11 as a "five-fold" ministry of apostles, prophets, teachers, pastors, evangelists. We work as a team in this way recognising spiritual authority according to spritual appointment by the Lord. We are a registered ministry with trustees to take forward the objectives of the ministry. Our work is mostly in the rural, less privleged areas though our base is at the city of Blantyre which is the main centre in Malawi for most denominations. We are non-denominational ministry seeking the revival of all churches.

DEVOTIONAL FOR JANUARY 2026
Dear Friends,

“Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.” Hebrews 11:1
“Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen.” Ephesians 3: 20,21

I wonder if you have begun 2026 facing a situation containing more unknown than known, or the answer you need seems almost impossible, from a human point of view. These are hallmarks of the type of beginnings which the Lord chooses. He is Lord and He wants us both to recognize that and to know what He has placed before us He will not fail to lead us through. This is His way of bringing us into the next phase of our destiny in Christ. He is asking to believe and trust Him completely. Many people expect the Lord to do things a certain way which makes them feel safe. However, as the Creator, generally, He prefers to do things in a new way. This is where our faith must engage.

Our secure place is staying close to the Lord depending on the Holy Spirit to guide us. Our heavenly Father teaches us His ways so that we may know Him better. Hebrews 11: 1 reveals that our faith is not meant to be blind but that the Holy Spirit will give us enough guidance to take every step through the journey ahead. I love the way in which Abram was called to leave his relatives and go to the land of Canaan. The Lord did not say much about it except to make an extraordinary promise of Abram’s destiny to become a great nation. He may have thought, “Who me?!” Yes, he had more unknown than known but he obeyed the calling of God and went. He didn’t listen to anyone or get anyone else’s view. God had spoken and that was that. So it should be with us. There is no room for us to be double-minded when the Lord has put a clear calling before us. It takes patience also to see the purpose of God unfold. So often the Lord is making us fit for the fulfilled promise along the way. We don’t start off that way. Abram went through many steps of development very late in his life to have the first taste of his destiny with the birth of Isaac.

The birth of Isaac was a miracle. Abram could not enter into his destiny without this miracle. His old age was not what he expected. Bringing up children would not have been on his original agenda. Until Isaac was grown up Abraham’s destiny could not be ensured. The Lord knew that and so he and his wife Sarah remained strong well into their old age. So, if you have reached a point of no turning back without a miracle and you need a greater capacity than you have right now to see it through, you are like Abraham. You can take courage and be confident in the Lord who showed up in His own way to make the miracle possible.

When Moses was at the Red Sea, he had big trouble behind him and an impossible block right in front of him, humanly speaking. But Moses knew that God was the God of miracles and knew He would not let him, or the people he was with, down. God, of course, was faithful. I love how David expressed this in Psalm 36: 5:-

“Your love, Lord, reaches to the heavens, your faithfulness to the skies.”

The Lord contained the bad trouble of the army of Pharoah behind them so they were all protected and did an amazing miracle of creating a path of dry ground through the Red Sea. The Lord has not changed! He protects us and He provides for us, especially when He wants us to see He is a miracle working God. Again, the Lord did something new to reveal His glory. Let the Lord do a new thing for you. His thoughts are not our thoughts and His ways are not our ways (Isaiah 55:8). Don’t let what you think or have felt you can ask limit your possibilities. This is why we have that wonderful Scripture in Ephesians 3:20,21, quoted above.

2026 is a year for proving the Lord like never before. Let us put our hope and trust in Him.

God bless you,

Pastor Keith Pascoe

Devotional reading for September, 2024

Dear Friends,

Then God said, “Let us make mankind in our image, in our likeness, so that they may rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky, over the livestock and all the wild animals, and over all the creatures that move along the ground.” Genesis 1: 26

This month I would like us to think more about the image of God as it relates to us. Specifically, I would like us to consider the subject of freewill. This bewilders many Christians. Whatever our theological background we are still made in the image of God which means we can make choices and indeed are responsible for those choices. To be clear, only God Himself has complete freewill and has the freedom to do anything He wishes. Our image is that of His rulership as is stated in the Scripture at the top. He does not rule randomly, fortunately, but as we considered in detail last month, God sustains a wonderful harmony in every detail of His creation.

From one man he made all the nations, that they should inhabit the whole earth; and he marked out their appointed times in history and the boundaries of their lands. God did this so that they would seek him and perhaps reach out for him and find him, though he is not far from any one of us. ‘For in him we live and move and have our being.’ As some of your own poets have said, ‘We are his offspring.’ Acts 17: 26-28

From this wonderful statement of the Apostle Paul, we see how the Lord made us, designed our future and wanted us to find reality in belonging to Him. Our whole being is designed to be found joined to God. When we understand that context, we begin to see that our choices will reflect that state of being so that we are constantly taking up the place God has prepared for us and also doing the works he also chose for us to do.

For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do. Ephesians 2:10.

This life of faith brings us in tune with the will of God and causes us to surrender our freewill in favour of His. This is actually what pleases Him because we are saying “Yes” to living heaven’s way, so to speak. Only on earth, under the authority of Satan, do we desire a detached way of living. Detachment was what Satan chose in the beginning for the goal of gaining more status than the considerable status he already had. This is what is prevalent amongst mankind is achieving success. More status, more wealth and more influence are what people run after which creates the greatest possible pride! Often that is at the expense of others too, sadly. But, when we are empowered by the Lord and are doing His will we gain our greatest peace and happiness. Changing from ambition to destiny in our thinking is a necessary change in the use of our freewill.

It is a surprise to some when the Scripture says that we are no longer our own. Let us look at 1 Corinthians 6:19,20:-

“Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your bodies.”

Truly, Jesus bought us by paying the price on the Cross to deliver us from separation from God through the forgiveness of our sin and thus remove the detachment planted in us by Satan. God designed eternal life in Him whose nature is eternal and infinite. Only He could provide the backdrop for us to be so enriched. What a privilege to be partakers of the divine nature as is mentioned in 1 Peter 1:2,3:-

“His divine power has given us everything we need for a godly life through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness. Through these he has given us his very great and precious promises, so that through them you may participate in the divine nature, having escaped the corruption in the world caused by evil desires.”

Another view of this is found in John 15: 5:-

“I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing.”

It is nothing because it is not relevant to the kingdom of heaven which is the only permanent entity! Everything else will disappear and become nothing! Perhaps we have to be reminded that a Day of Judgment is coming and this planet earth is time-limited! Jesus will be coming again with the angels. Hallelujah! God has already prophesied a new heaven and a new earth wherein dwells righteousness ( I explained this last month):-

But in keeping with his promise we are looking forward to a new heaven and a new earth, where righteousness dwells. 2 Peter 3: 13

The beautiful thing about being a creation of God is that each one of us has been given a unique personality and temperament as well as the image of God in a fundamental way. This means that the way we express ourselves, not only verbally, but in the choices we make, reveals more of the character of God which is multifaceted. I have read one person express it from a vision this way:-

“We each carry the radiant holiness of Christ in white but also an individual colour as part of the infinite colours found in the rainbow.” (Interestingly enough, it is true that when all the colours of the rainbow come together, they produce the colour of white!)

Now we are beginning to appreciate our freedom in Christ. It may seem different to what we thought before.

God bless you,

Pastor Keith Pascoe

Devotional reading for August 2024

Dear Friends,
For in the gospel the righteousness of God is revealed—a righteousness that is by faith from first to last, just as it is written: “The righteous will live by faith.”
Romans 1:17

This month I would like us to consider the topic of righteousness. This is a big theological word which is not easy to grasp properly. From the Scripture above we are trying to ascertain what exactly is the “righteousness of God”. This is so important. I believe it is very different to a matter of right and wrong where most of our thinking tends to go. What has helped me is to consider the whole creation of God as it originally was. Though so vast, it was in perfect order and all creatures within it lived in beautiful harmony with God and one another. The two greatest commandments which Jesus spoke of in Matthew 22: 37-40 were being completely fulfilled without any difficulty. Let’s look at another Scripture-

The Son is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. For in him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things have been created through him and for him. He is before all things, and in him all things hold together.
Colossians 1: 15-17

So, the whole creation interacts with the Lord constantly; it is made that way. Truly, the Lord wanted both greatness and beauty to be displayed and the blessing of everything working together perfectly in respect of everything else so there was no conflict, clash or confusion at any moment. Therein is peace. This is the true state of the kingdom of heaven. It applies to the material side and all beings. The best description is a full state of harmony.

The Greek word for righteousness in Strong’s dictionary is “dikaiosune”. The definition includes;-
“In a broad sense: state of him who is as he ought to be. Righteousness, the condition which is acceptable to God. This includes integrity, virtue, purity of life, rightness, correctness of thinking, feeling, and acting.”

How does this apply in heaven we could ask? As we consider the two great commandments as we know them and are applied to God and His subjects in heaven, there is never any shortfall of relationship. Therefore, righteousness is easily maintained by the Lord Himself with beings who have freewill also. The sense of justice seemingly is irrelevant!

We can now begin to see why righteousness is about a state of being and has nothing to do with works accredited as pleasing God. So, in its proper place the idea of right and wrong disappears because there should be no wrong! A better view might be that we are not in step with the harmony which God originally created; we are out of order, i.e., God’s order of life. We can only start to get into step with His order by living by faith. That is why the Scripture says:-

“And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.”
Hebrew 11:6

And as above: “The righteous will live by faith.”

The Christian life is based in the spiritual realm and is accessed through the Holy Spirit.

The apostle Paul explains this fully in Romans 8:-
Those who live according to the flesh have their minds set on what the flesh desires; but those who live in accordance with the Spirit have their minds set on what the Spirit desires. The mind governed by the flesh is death, but the mind governed by the Spirit is life and peace. The mind governed by the flesh is hostile to God; it does not submit to God’s law, nor can it do so. Those who are in the realm of the flesh cannot please God.
Romans 8: 5-8

Sin through the works of the devil have caused us to lose this beautiful state that God wanted mankind to have and that is why Jesus came to bring us salvation which is where we must begin. The restoration of righteousness cannot be completed in this world environment, yet it remains our final hope. Nevertheless, righteousness is our focus for spiritual reality and maturity. It is a full expression of a life in Christ. We now see this is a much deeper understanding than trying to do what is right. We must always remember that our context is “the Body of Christ” and we don’t live independently.

The good news is the righteousness of God will be beautifully restored as God has always wanted it:-

2 Peter 3: 13 “But in keeping with his promise we are looking forward to a new heaven and a new earth, where righteousness dwells.”

I am sure that you are looking forward to this state of being.

God bless you,

Pastor Keith Pascoe

Devotional reading for November , 2023

Dear Friends,

This month I am going to do something different. I felt it was time again to talk specifically about our ministry vision. This was given to my wife, Apostle Mary Pascoe, in 1995. God’s purposes are often long term rather than short term. I don’t know of any other vision like this vision! It is fully described on our website. It has 3 main components; the triangle in rainbow colours, the stars and the large back letters in the middle. It is a prophetic description which does not describe a usual Christian ministry.

The most important message the vision brought is that God has chosen to reveal Himself in full display of His glory. A rainbow has an infinite number of colours and His glory can uniquely touch an infinite number of people. That does not usually happen in church! It requires a full ministry of the Lord Jesus Christ. We forget that this did not happen when the Saviour was here on earth. He clearly stated it was to happen:-

But very truly I tell you, it is for your good that I am going away. Unless I go away, the Advocate will not come to you; but if I go, I will send him to you.
Jn 16:7.

John the Baptist defined this best of all:-

John answered them all, “I baptize you with water, but one who is more powerful than I am is coming. I am not worthy to untie the strap of his sandals. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire.
Lk 3:16.

Later, on the day of Pentecost, 50 days after the feast of the Passover when Jesus was crucified then resurrected, the Holy Spirit visited the people in Jerusalem both believer and non-believer alike. The non-believers felt the fire of God when they heard the gospel message and were in pain in their innermost being and were bewildered not knowing what to do. The Apostle Peter told then to repent and be baptised in the Name of Jesus Christ and they too would receive the gift of the Holy Spirit though they had no idea what that meant. The spiritual fruit on that day was remarkable; 3,000 people became believers in Christ. They received a full separation from the world and its powers coming fully under the new authority of the kingdom of heaven through Christ.
In our day we know little of such an experience. Most church people have one foot in the world and one foot in the kingdom of heaven. Pastors have a hard job trying to put things properly in place for God’s people making them fully separated to Christ, knowing the fear of the Lord as well as the love of God. Yes, we need both.

So, what I am revealing is that the Lord is not happy with this state of affairs. He wants His church to be a radiant, spotless bride for Christ. (Ephesians 5:27). The Lord has chosen to come Himself afresh like the early church experienced. For us it has meant much preparation mostly through prayer and intercession. The black letters in the vision represent powers of darkness over nations which are holding people back in their walk with the Lord. As we are praying for Malawi our first agenda is spiritual warfare under the authority of our Lord Jesus Christ to remove the sin of the land and the rights gained by these demonic powers. Recently churches everywhere have started to come on board through the Revival School repentance campaign. That has been so encouraging a development to seeing our vision fulfilled. This paves the way for the Holy Spirit to come. When He fully comes the atmosphere changes and the Lord can powerfully touch people’s lives to dramatically change them like never before.

The stars represent the end result; Christians reaching their full potential in Christ, each one unique in their make-up playing their part in the Body of Christ. It reminds us of the vision given by the Lord to Abraham regarding his descendants. So numerous and beautiful. This is the will of God. A holy nation for God.

This type of experience which we call “revival” or “an awakening” is not new. There have been even in our generation national and church revivals. Perhaps the Toronto revival is the most famous. In 1994 on 20th January the Holy Spirit came upon the Toronto Airport Christian Fellowship, a Vineyard denominational church of 120 people. Soon thousands were visiting the church every day. My wife and I went to that church in 2015 and the founder estimated that they had had about 3 to 4 million people though their doors. The impact has been worldwide. You should find out about it. God has not changed. What happened on the day of Pentecost is still happening and that is why Royal Priesthood is here. We are here to see the favour of God in Malawi in the most overwhelming way. Nobody in Christ will be disappointed. The Lord is also speaking about a global revival in this generation so we expect to see many nations receiving a great visitation of the Holy Spirit and many, many people reaped into the kingdom of heaven.

Despite the wars and rumours of wars currently, which Jesus Himself predicted, God has a more wonderful life-giving agenda to bring about in the world which cannot be stopped. Yes, the kingdom of heaven is advancing.

God bless you,

Pastor Keith Pascoe

Devotional Reading for July 2023

“God is not unjust; he will not forget your work and the love you have shown him as you have helped his people and continue to help them. We want each of you to show this same diligence to the very end, so that what you hope for may be fully realized. We do not want you to become lazy, but to imitate those who through faith and patience inherit what has been promised.
When God made his promise to Abraham, since there was no one greater for him to swear by, he swore by himself, saying, “I will surely bless you and give you many descendants.” And so after waiting patiently, Abraham received what was promised.”
Heb 6:10–15.

Dear Friends,

Having faith and waiting patiently can be very demanding. Like Abraham, many have had to wait years and years to receive what the Lord had promised. We don’t know much about Abraham at the time he comes into Scripture. He was already 75 years old and lived in a time long before Moses when there was little revelation from the Lord such as Moses was to receive and empower the Israel nation. What we do know was that he was ready to answer the Lord’s difficult call for him to take his family to land he probably knew nothing about and relocate a very long distance away which would take a long and tiring journey. Abraham had no idea about the people already living in that land, whether they would be dangerous or what sort of life he would need to adjust to.
Abraham had learnt to be diligent in the every-day living out of his life. He was in no way lazy but always living for his God. Abraham was content to live continually with the promise that God had made to him and know he was also well protected by the Lord. Like in the Scripture above he would have shown his love for the Lord continually. When faced with a difficult decision that affected him and his relatives, he was not selfish. (See Genesis 13: 8,9) His character was strong and trustworthy.
Abraham was never going to see a large outcome for his faith whilst living in this world. He faced many challenges which he generally came through well. It was only after 25 years, at age of 100 years, that he saw the true beginning of what the Lord had promised.
I will make you into a great nation,
I will bless you,
I will make your name great,
and you will be a blessing.
Gen. 12:2.
It took the miraculous birth of Isaac at this age to begin to see the fulfilment of the promise. The full inheritance he would not see in this life on earth. So, it does not seem that the tangible fruit of his life was the main reason for his great accomplishment. No, it was the journey which revealed the relationship he developed with God. Yes, he became the “father of many nations” but greater still, he became “a friend of God!” (See James 2 :21 – 24) Developing that love and obedience was what the Lord needed. Abraham probably had found that “being still and know that I am God” was very fruitful indeed! It was the place to grow in intimacy with the Lord. His intimacy also made his faith strong. Abraham was able to wait patiently for the Lord. He did not have to make anything happen at all. He just had to keep his focus on the Lord, day in and day out.
What is important to the Lord may well be different to what we think is important. Have you thought how important your journey is? Will you finish your “race” as a friend of God?

God bless you,

Pastor Keith Pascoe.

Your Prayer Counts: A Noontime Prayer Revival Is Coming by James W. Goll

I want to bring you a word of exhortation — this is simple, but simple things can be profound — your prayer counts and your sacrifice matters.
Habakkuk 3:2 says, “Lord, I have heard of your fame; I stand in awe of your deeds, Lord. Repeat them in our day, in our time make them known; in wrath remember mercy.”
We all need mercy, don’t we.
In prayer revivals, this scripture is one of the most prayed in all the Bible.
I've heard of your fame. I stand in awe of your deeds. Lord, I remind you, I repeat them to you. Remember the revivals of awe. And so, I bring you in remembrance once again.
Layman’s Prayer Revival
Recently I was doing an interview with someone, and I started prophesying that there is going to be another noontime prayer revival that will go across this nation, and the nations of the world. As I started prophesying about this, I was reminded that this has happened before. It happened in 1857 in what was called the Layman's Prayer Revival. It happened under the leadership of businessman Jeremiah Lanpher in New York City.
Businesses would shut down at noontime and they would go into prayer. Churches were filled and overflowing across New York City. This spread across the country. It went on for well over a year.
A layman’s prayer revival. A businessman’s prayer revival. Today we would use the word “marketplace” prayer revival.
Bringing in new terminology from today – this was a prayer invasion where the presence of God was released into every sphere of life, ministry, and culture.
You Have Authority in Your Sphere
I don't know what your sphere is, but you have authority in your sphere of influence.
When I started prophesying that there is going to be another noontime prayer revival, I felt like this word kind of splashed up in my face.
I thought, why do I always prophesy these things and then not actually enter into my own words?
Another Noontime Prayer Revival
So, some of my staff and I decided we are going to be part of fulfilling this word. We have started a Noontime scripture-based prayer time.
This is part of Global Prayer Storm, where every prayer counts and every sacrifice matters. I encourage you to join us every Wednesday at 12:00 pm Noon Central Time LIVE on the God Encounters page and share it on your social media.
Let’s start something.
Let’s create momentum for a noontime prayer movement where your prayer counts.
You might pray in your kitchen. You might pray on a coffee break or in your break room. You might pray in a college room, or wherever.
But the thing is, your prayer counts, and your prayer might be the one that is the tipping point. Yes, there’s a tipping point.
Prayer for Revival
In the name of Jesus, we labor with the Holy Spirit for a God-sent revival in our day. We will not quit praying until we have seen with our own eyes the glory of the Lord covering the earth as the waters cover the seas. O God, release a global revival to the Church in our day! Awaken the sleeping beauty called the Body of Christ to her destiny. Start in our nation! Start in my city! Start in my congregation! Start in my family! Start in my very own heart! Release revival fire for the sake of Your holy name! Amen and Amen.
Your prayer counts. It really, really does.
Your Prayer Counts!
