Speaker 1:

Hallelujah. Today I want to talk to you about I want to start actually talking to you about a prophet of God and his name was Isaiah Isaiah whatever you feel comfortable pronouncing his name, as His name was Prophet Isaiah, and that's what I'm comfortable with. And that's what I'm comfortable with and that's what I will use today and I have. I would like to say I have a short word, but I'm here to release God's word and I will release only what I've been asked to release. So it will take its time, but I want to tell you for some of you know, some of you don't know, you know the Bible has certain books that are written by certain prophets of God and Isaiah was one of them, and you know he was a prophet who lived in Jerusalem, and the Bible also talks about him being there in Jerusalem at a time of the rule of multiple kings of Israel, kings of Israel. And I want to tell you that the book of Isaiah is written by the prophet Isaiah and I want to tell you that it's a big book. It has 66 chapters in it and through the book there are times that encompass, you know, the prophe is given to God when Israel turned away from God, a time when they forgot about him and they abandoned God and they do what they want to do and then, through that, it goes through different phases and I'll come to it and I won't tell you that isaiah in the bible is documented as being the son of amos, as I said, at a time of multiple kings, and I will call out the names king oziah, king ahaz and king hezekiah. And, as I said, it's got 66 books and it's a powerful book with some amazing prophecies. I'll tell you that too. And some of the paths are pretty scary because I told you that God picked Isaiah at a time when he was not happy with Jerusalem. He was not happy with Israel I'm sorry his people because they had turned away from God. So there are some passages of scripture and Isaiah that can be pretty scary, because God is calling it out the way it is, as this is what will happen if you turn away from me, and Isaiah is an obedient prophet. I can tell you that much if you read.

Speaker 1:

I haven't read the whole book of Isaiah. Let me be honest with you, but I will tell you that there are certain parts that are scary because God is angry with his people turning away from him. And I want to tell you that through this book, god speaks with Isaiah multiple times and there is this one time in the 6th chapter. Actually, this is the time when Isaiah is picked as a prophet. It's in the 6th chapter and God reveals to Isaiah a vision of him sitting on the throne and you should read it. I would not even want to explain it to you because I believe it's an understanding through your own mind and what you read. So you should read Isaiah six chapter and it's the vision that he own mind and what you read. So you should read Isaiah 6 chapter and it's the vision that he gets of God sitting on the throne and that's actually when Isaiah is commissioned as a prophet. So everything before that is just an account of what Isaiah has. And there's a time when God asks Isaiah in this book whom shall I send? Who will go on our behalf, our behalf? And Isaiah responds here I am, send me. And it's basically significant of him accepting God's plan in his life and it's beautiful, hallelujah. And that's where he's commissioned as a prophet from the sixth chapter.

Speaker 1:

And, as I said, I've not read all the books in in the book of Isaiah. Not at all the chapters, but I can tell you it's divided into different parts and I'll call them out to you. One is judgment for the people who have turned away from God, and I told you that's the scary part. Some of them can really be tough, and there's wisdom and warnings and there's hope and beautiful promises for turning back to God. And there's hope and beautiful promises for turning back to God. In fact, there's a book in Isaiah that's even calling out Jesus Hallelujah. Even way, way, many years before Jesus was even on this planet. There's a book calling out Jesus and the coming of Jesus Hallelujah. And today I want to share with you from this beautiful book and a chapter from this book.

Speaker 1:

And before I get into it, this is for someone in particular and you know this is for you and you think. You think it is something that you have done that makes you feel not worthy going to God, but you are wrong. I am here to tell you this morning that you are wrong. I am saying it again. It is for someone who morning that you are wrong. I'm saying it again. It's for someone who you think you are not worthy to go to God, maybe something you've done, I'm not sure, but you are wrong. I'm here to tell you that. And I'm here to tell you that he's your father. And when you turn to him and you call to him like the prodigal son, he will come running toward you, he will put a ring on you, he will put his tunic around you and he will have a celebration for your return. And this is for you. I don't know who you are, but it's for someone. Hallelujah, so leave aside. If there's any, any form of condemnation that's being spoken into your ear, trash it, because it's not from god. Go back, call on to him. He will answer you.

Speaker 1:

The bible says and as I have 59 one behold the lord, and this is for you. The same person. Behold, the Lord's hand is not so short that it cannot save. Now. Is his ear so dull that it cannot hear? Hallelujah, yes, it's for you. I told you. Just go back to him. The Lord's hand is not so short that it cannot save. Noise is here so dull that it cannot hear. The same God who parted the Red Sea, that 500,000 plus Israelites walked through it on dry ground. The same God who brought 10 plagues down on Egypt just to save his people. The same God who held the sun and the moon in the same position to honour the promise made to one man. The same God who came down and danced in a furnace. That God is telling you is my hand too short, or do you think my ear is so dull that I cannot hear you? Hallelujah, I won't tell you. Just turn to him. I don't know who you are. Just turn to him, reach out to him.

Speaker 1:

Condemnation only comes from one place. What Jesus did on the cross has cleared. Uh, condemnation only comes from one place. What jesus did on the cross has cleared your condemnation from you. So, uh, just put away your inhibitions, just close that door. Call out to jesus this is for you. He's my hand so, so short that I cannot save. He will come and he will change your situation. And, as I said, I don't know who you are, but that was for you. Hallelujah.

Speaker 1:

And today I want to get into the crux of the word. That was not even it, and how powerful that was. Hallelujah. I want to tell you that, as I said, the book of isaiah is broken into multiple parts and I've been asked to release this word today, and it's a prophecy for those of you who accept it, and it comes from the book of Isaiah, the 68th chapter.

Speaker 1:

Isaiah, alleluia, alleluia. It says arise, shine, for your light has come and the glory of God has risen upon you. Amen. So behold, darkness Will cover the earth and deep darkness the peoples, but the lord will rise upon you and his glory will appear upon you. Hallelujah, amen, amen, arise, shine, for your light has come. It means your time is now, hallelujah, get up and dust off and shine, because jesus has turned his gaze towards you. Some of you will feel god's presence at a tremendous capacity. This, this beautiful day, because he's there in your midst and he's, he's turned his gaze towards you. Oh, hallelujah, and the glory of God has risen upon you, and I want to tell you that things will happen around the world, and darkness will cover the earth and the people, but the Lord around the world, and darkness will cover the earth and the people, but the Lord, according to his word, from Isaiah 61 2. Hallelujah will shine on you. Oh, amen, amen, hallelujah, and nations will come to your light.

Speaker 1:

The third verse says and kings to the brightness of your rising, amen. I want you to mark this date. It's the 31st of August, if I'm not mistaken. Mark this time and mark the scripture. You can write it on your app, if you make notes, and you can write it on your physical, if you make notes, and you can write it on your physical bible if you like, taking down notes. As I said, and you will remember this day, hallelujah, people you thought I want to tell you didn't even know that you exist, people in your life who you looked up to and you thought they are. You know the, the people who make the decisions. I want to tell you those people who you thought, quote unquote high and mighty, they will just gravitate towards you and they will depend on you and they will ask for your opinions and they will look on you and they will ask for your opinions and they will look to you for solutions. Amen, nations will come to your light and the kings to the brightness of your rising. That's what it means. Amen.

Speaker 1:

The fourth chapter says lift your eyes round about and see. That means get up, look around and they all gather to you. They come to you. Your sons will come from afar and your daughters will be carried in the arms. Amen, hallelujah, I won't tell you that you will see departments being aligned to you at work. You will see resources being moved towards you, on whatever front it might be. You will see people aligning their plans to suit you. You will see things being moved around for you yes, for you, and why. I'll tell you why. That's what Isaiah 60, the fifth verse says. And then you will see and be radiant and your heart will thrill and rejoice because the abundance of the seas will be turned to you. The wealth of the nations will come to you. Amen, amen. I told you.

Speaker 1:

Mark the date, mark the scripture it's the 31st of August 2025. And you will see and you will be radiant and you will rejoice and you will know. You will know. Jesus Is the one who you will know. Jesus Is the one who is doing it for you. He is the one who stepped into your life and into your situation. Amen, hallelujah. The abundance of the sea will be turned to you, which means the wealth of the nations will come to you, amen. For some of you, it means bank balances. For some of you, it means friendships. For some of you, it even means happiness. The abundance of the sea will be turned to you. The wealth of the nations will be turned to you. Amen. For someone. It specifically means joining of your families. The joining of your family is something that you've been waiting for for a long time, for some, an influx of great health and healing that was needed and has been pending for a while. So someone it's followers on Instagram. Amen.

Speaker 1:

Isaiah 66, 7 and 8, and I'm not going to read it, but I will just tell you what it actually means. The young camels of Midian and Ephah and all of those of Sheba will come to you. Gold and frankincense will be brought to you. Good news will be put at your feet, flocks of Kedar, the rams of Nebaiot these two, three verses mean joy, prosperity and resources will burst down your gates, amen, and they will flood your lives.

Speaker 1:

Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah. Foreigners will build up your walls and their kings will minister to you. For in my wrath I struck you and in my favor, I have had compassion on you. This says enough. I want to tell you your enemies or outsiders will come to you and help you and they will build you up only because god has compassion on you, nothing else, because he has had compassion on you. So, in case you heard the part for in my wrath I struck you, I told you that the book of is Isaiah is broken down into different timelines, and this is not that timeline where he's turned his back on you. It's the timeline where he has turned his gaze towards you. Hallelujah, and in favor. He has.

Speaker 1:

Compassion on you, hallelujah, hallelujah. Passion on you, hallelujah, hallelujah, for your gates will continually be open. They will not be closed day or night. Amen, so that men may bring to you the wealth of the nations with their kings led in procession. Oh, hallelujah, hallelujah, your gates will constantly be open. That means blessings are just going to come into your land, come into your life, come into aspects which you never even dreamt of. You already know Some of you have not even dreamt about these things that have been happening in the past few weeks for you.

Speaker 1:

You have not even dreamt about these things that have been happening in the past few weeks for you. Some of you I have. I have seen somebody going at the edge of the hill and jumping off and striking wings and flying hallelujah for the nation and the kingdom which will not serve you and this is for someone in particular, and accept it if you will for the nation and the kingdom that will not serve you will perish and the nation will be utterly destroyed and ruined. It's sad for them, but it would be their choice. Hallelujah, the sons of those who afflicted you will come bowing to you, and all those who desped you will come bowing to you, and all those who despised you will bow themselves at the soles of your feet and they will call you the city of the Lord Zion, the Holy One of Israel. Amen, hallelujah, I told you, jesus has turned his gaze upon you. That's's all it takes. He does not even need to move a finger, he just needs to look in your direction.

Speaker 1:

And that's what this passage of scripture is saying hallelujah. And here you can claim this instead, instead of bronze, I will bring gold instead of iron. I will bring gold instead of iron. I will bring silver instead of wood, bronze instead of stones, iron. I will make peace your administrators, and righteousness your overseers. Hallelujah.

Speaker 1:

The 18th verse says violence will not be heard in your land, nor devastation or destruction within your borders, but you will call your walls salvation and your gates praise. Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah. The 19th verse. No longer will you have sun for light by day, nor for brightness will the moon give you light, because you will have the Lord for an everlasting life. Now for brightness. Will the moon give you light? Because you will have the Lord for an everlasting life. Everlasting light, hallelujah. The Lord will be your glory. You will not need the sun, you will not need the moon. God will be your light, hallelujah.

Speaker 1:

And there's one last passage of scripture that I want to share with you this morning and, as I said, I've been asked to release the scripture and you can read the whole of Isaiah 60, because the whole book, the whole whole chapter, I'm sorry, is a blessing. The 22nd verse says the smallest one will become a clan, the least one a mighty nation. I, the Lord, will hasten it in its time. Amen, I, the Lord will hasten it and it's time. Amen, I, the Lord, will hasten it and it's time. Amen, hallelujah. I just want to tell you this beautiful morning that I have been asked to release the scripture. I have been asked to release this blessing from Isaiah 60 onto you, knowing fully well that if you accept this blessing, if you accept it, it's as simple as that. If you just accept it, it will come to life in your beautiful lives. Only because of one thing Because God has decided to turn his gaze upon you.

Speaker 1:

He has decided. He has decided and I want to tell you some of you know it, some of you don't that there is a scripture that says life, a time for everything under the heavens. The Bible says, and I want to tell you, if you're just asking why, why? I just want to tell you because he will hasten it in His time. He will hasten it in His time and this is His time. Hallelujah for you. This is His time. For me, this is his time For anyone who has put their faith in the light. And the light has risen upon you and the light turns his gaze upon you and the darkness does not comprehend, cannot comprehend Hallelujah.

Speaker 1:

Some of you are going to feel God's presence. Some of you are feeling God's presence. Some of you are going to experience God at a whole new level. Some of you are going to feel Him at your workplace, in the cabin. You sit in that hospital room, unfortunately, but don't worry, that's the end of that phase For some of you in that home that you have been waiting for some company for some of you in that place, where you're dreading to go, but you have to go there because he's waiting there for you to come to that point. You're going to experience him at a whole new level, this beautiful day, and praise God for that, because his word says he is the Lord and he will hasten it in its time, and this is the time. Hallelujah, I'd like to pray.

Speaker 1:
