God is doing an extremely marvelous work in Asia and South East Asia. The recent Prophetic International Conference in Surabaya, Indonesia with Chuck Pierce and Cindy Jacob was
truly significant. Following the conference, we had a series of meetings in Melbourne and Perth, Australia, after which Pastor Paul ministered in Bethany Nginden in Surabaya. One thing is certain as we travel and minister in South East Asia and Australia – this is definitely our time and our season!

It is time for Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, Philippines and the other South East Asian countries including Australia to be prepared for the new wind of God. It is time for Christians to rise up and make prophetic declarations in the lands that our Lord has given us to inherit.

What must we do and how do we make effective prophetic declarations?

1. Acknowledge the Lordship of Jesus over your life!

Salvation is freely given but it is not really free as having no value. Somebody paid the price of our salvation. It can’t be bought by gold, silver or diamonds and beautiful garments. No money can buy salvation. Salvation was bought with the price of the blood of a sinless man. Sent to be a human, Jesus, the Son of God, lived a sinless, pure life and was crucified so that the blood which poured from His body on the cross became the penalty for our sins.

Salvation is very costly and very valuable! It was purchased with a very high price – the blood of Jesus – shed once for all humanity. To attain salvation, just welcome Him to be your Lord
and Master in your own words.

This salvation must be guarded as a precious possession and we must also allow the love of God in us to reach out to the lost and dying world that they too can receive the outflow of God’s
grace upon you.

A quality decision to live a holy and pure life before God is vital so that there would be no occasion for anyone to point a finger of accusation on us. However if we are tried for our love for Jesus,
count it all joy to be persecuted!

2. Arise and be fearless!
Fear and intimidation is a snare. Perfect love casts out all fear. If we are consumed with the word of God and the Holy Spirit, we will not be afraid of trials, sickness even supposedly terminal ones, persecutions or threats. We must be so convinced of the word of God that it consumes our entire being. Then we will have no doubt or unbelief when we face the powers of darkness. God is raising up Davids who will be fearless when facing the Goliaths of this age!

3. Arise and make prophetic declaration!
Unless we are totally convinced and bold, it is impossible to make prophetic declarations that would change the landscape of our nations. Boldness comes from having the faith of God. Faith comes from hearing and hearing God’s word. With great boldness and the power of the Holy One, we can make powerful declarations and tear down the strongholds of demonic forces over our nations.

DO NOT SPEAK NEGATIVE WORDS THAT WILL NULLIFY
YOUR DECLARATIONS!!

4. Allow the Holy Spirit to pray through you prayers that matter!
Only the Holy Spirit knows how best to pray. Earnest prayer with deep intercession and tears to God who is welcome to reign and rule over our nations. The souls of man matter to God. These souls are under governing authorities that are under the grips of the powers of darkness. Our job is to tear down these powers and wrestle in our prayers. It is not wrestling physically.

Ephesians 6: 12
For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.

5. Arise with love for God and others!
Jesus said that we have to love the Lord our God with all our heart, soul and mind and to love our neighbour as ourselves.

Matthew 22:37-40
37 Jesus said to him, “ ‘You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.’
38 “This is the first and great commandment.
39 “And the second is like it: ‘You shall love your neighbor
as yourself.’
40 “On these two commandments hang all the Law and the
Prophets.”

The power of God’s love and boldness is a power that the enemy dreads. We will rise again with that power that works great victories as we make powerful prophetic declaration!!

Surely our Bridegroom is waiting with great expectation for His bride to arise and rule with Him. We welcome the lordship of Jesus over our nations. Come Lord Jesus! The bride and Spirit calls on Jesus to “come!”

Amen and Amen!!
