Prophetic Word released by the Prophet Mario Puente

Perú será Efraín, la llamarán Rama Fructífera, su tierra nunca más será seca sino será tierra fértil y verde.
Perú, yá no hablaran más de tí por el Machu Pichi como una atracción turística, sino porque serás levantada entre las naciones de la tierra y sacada del olvido porque has pagado un precio, un alto precio, y puesta en sitios de privilegio como tierra de inversiones. Serás cabeza y no cola, muchos te verán y no entenderan lo que ocurrió, porque la mano de Dios esta sobre tí.
Caen hoy estructuras religiosas, estructuras de tradición y estructuras legalistas que hasta aqui fueron gobierno y hoy pierden autoridad.
Se manifestará el Espíritu Profético y Apostólico que producirá cambios substanciales sobre la nación.
Habrá un cambio de autoridad y esa autoridad estará en manos del Gobierno Apostólico que traerá un Rejuvenecimiento sobre el país andino.
Perú preparate porque se verá en tí lo escrito en 1ra.de Corintios 2:9 “Cosa que ojo no vió, ni oido oyo, ni han subido al corazón del hombre son las cosas que Dios ha preparado para los que le aman”

TRANSLATED BY IRENE REIS PILLAY — SOUTH AFRICA
Peru will be Efrain, It will be called as Fruitful Branch, Its ground will never be dry again but it will be a fertile green ground.
Peru, you won’t be known for the Machu Pichi as a tourist attraction but you will be raised amongst the nations of the Earth.
The negligence will be extracted because you have paid the price, a high price which will placed you in places of privileges as a ground of investments.
You will be a head not tail, many people will see you and will not understand what happened because the hand of God is upon you.
All religious and traditional structures that so far were enforced by the governmental authorities will fall down as they will lose their influences today.
The Prophetic and Apostolic Spirit will be manifested and will produce substantial changes in the nation.
There will be a change of authority and this authority will be in the hands of Apostolic Government that will bring rejuvenation on the Andean country.
Peru is prepared because what is written on 1 Corinthians 2:9 will be seen on you.”
What no eye has seen, nor ear heard, nor heart of man imagined, what God has prepared for those how love Him.

We are gathering on Wednesday the 16th to celebrate and give thanks to the Lord for a variety of covenantal relationships.These are men and women who have been consistent in their support for our ministry during the course of this year. We count ourselves amongst those who believe that Divine grace is imparted through accurate covenantal association with carriers of grace. So this is simply an expression of our gratitude to God for those He has sent our way.
Bones must connect together if we are to develop the structure necessary in ministry to advance us in His Kingdom. Sadly that which the prophet Ezekiel saw is the same sight we behold in the Body in this present day…bones lying disjointed and scattered in the valley.
It is because of covenantal relationships, accurate bone connections and alignment, that we will see and hear the emergence of an exceedingly great army that carries the very breath and fire of God.
Ezek 37:10
10 So I prophesied as he commanded me, and breath entered them; they came to life and stood up on their feet-a vast army.
Discern the spirit behind this Word and you will understand the spirit of thanksgiving that is abounding in our hearts at CCF.
Let us close with this scripture:
Ps 100:4-5
4 Enter his gates with thanksgiving and his courts with praise;
give thanks to him and praise his name.
5 For the LORD is good and his love endures forever;
his faithfulness continues through all generations.

Well we have just emerged from a phenomenal encounter with the Lord as the saints voluntarily embedded themselves in the temple. The young and the old, children as young as 3 months old; we waited in the temple for 24 hours, praising and worshipping the Lord Jesus; reasoning with one another concerning the demand of God in this present season. We dealt with great clarity the issues outlined in Exodus 23 concerning the nation of Israel.
Here are some of the views that were presented.
Ex 23:2-3
2 “Do not follow the crowd in doing wrong. When you give testimony in a lawsuit, do not pervert justice by siding with the crowd, 3 and do not show favoritism to a poor man in his lawsuit.
NIV
We must be able to discern between the crowd and a righteous company or the remnant. It makes all the difference in the way we will finish the race. The poor man does not enjoy immunity from prosecution simply because of his poverty. The demand in this season is for righteousness, irrespective of who we are. For too long the Church has been guilty of protecting the poor from the Divine demand for righteousness.
Ex 23:11
Then the poor among your people may get food from it
NIV
There has been a general consensus that our primary responsibility is to the “poor among our people”. This refers to a covenantal people who belong to God and are faithful to Him. It is the responsibilty of the poor to show themselves to be “the people of God”. We recognise the need for social responsibilty…for scattering seed as the Lord would lead us; but our main responsibilty is towards the people amongst us.
Ex 23:20-25
20 “See, I am sending an angel ahead of you to guard you along the way and to bring you to the place I have prepared. 21 Pay attention to him and listen to what he says. Do not rebel against him; he will not forgive your rebellion, since my Name is in him. 22 If you listen carefully to what he says and do all that I say, I will be an enemy to your enemies and will oppose those who oppose you. 23 My angel will go ahead of you and bring you into the land of the Amorites, Hittites, Perizzites, Canaanites, Hivites and Jebusites, and I will wipe them out. 24 Do not bow down before their gods or worship them or follow their practices. You must demolish them and break their sacred stones to pieces. 25 Worship the LORD your God, and his blessing will be on your food and water.
NIV
The angel of God sent to every house is the set man or the one sent by God. He has spiritual authority over us. His Word is to be taken seriously and implemented quickly. He has the responsibilty to lead us into our destiny; a prepared place. The Scriptures warn us about rebelling against him; that the Name of the Lord is in him. That he (the man of God) has the ability to forgive and release you into your destiny, or delay your advancement. Note this very carefully! The name of the Lord is in Him.
The other demand is not to be seduced into worshipping at foreign altars and pagan systems and structures. Not only are we expected to vigorously resist them, we are supposed to destroy them into pieces.

THE MIRACLE OF THE DRY GROUND
The town of Wyebank has experienced an unusually high amount of rainfall over the past week. It has never rained like this in a long while.
In the past heavy rains caused the floor of the Church to be flooded;
during the time we were in the temple there was water all around the bulding, but the floor of the sanctuary was dry. Everyone witnessed this miracle; the faith of many has increased remarkably because of this sign from the Lord; that God is all the protection we need; like Noah’s ark, the floodwaters raged outside, but inside the ark the righteous company were protected by His hand.
Praise the Lord! Stay encouraged brethren. The Lord reigns.

As Friday the 4th approaches there is a great sense of expectancy among the saints as they prepare to enter the temple at six in the morning on Friday. We are committing all our plans for 2010 to the Lord. We have started to shut off every voice from our hearing; we want to hear His clear voice as we would study His Word and wait upon Him. The confusion that is Babylon has somehow crept into the household of faith and is turning the hearts of the worshippers away from the Lord Jesus.
This has happened whilst the servants of the Lord are in a deep sleep.
An unbelieving boat captain asked Jonah this question:
Jonah 1:5-6
But Jonah had gone below deck, where he lay down and fell into a deep sleep. 6 The captain went to him and said, “How can you sleep? Get up and call on your god! Maybe he will take notice of us, and we will not perish.”

The question was a simple one: How can you sleep in such a time like this?
It is a shame than an unbeliever had to advise Jonah, a man of God to go and call on his God.
It is time we all arose from our slumber and called on our God in these perilous times.

Ps 84:10
10 Better is one day in your courts than a thousand elsewhere;
I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God
than dwell in the tents of the wicked.

We have declared the 4th of December a public holiday in our local house.
Businesses will be closed, believers will take off work and gather in His temple for 24hours.
We will spend this time praying and reasoning with one another from the Word of the Lord. We will gather around the Table of the Lord as we remember the Lord’s death and all that He died for.
We will commit all our plans and strategies for 2010 to the Lord…. seeking His ways and His approval. This is a time that is set apart for spiritual communication where we may access His plans for our lives.
To all our covenant partners…please remember us in prayer.
Let us experience revival and renewal in the midst of Babylon’s festivities and revelry!

Shalom ! Thank you my father for these words, wonderful! The church needs to show the power of God, the disciples received lessons from Jesus , as we have received, they put their lessons into practice and it worked . Acts 2:43.
” EVERYONE WAS FILLED WITH AWE ,AND MANY WONDERS AND MIRACULOUS SIGNS WERE DONE BY THE APOSTLES”,
If we put our lessons into practice , Jesus will honour His word, and His Divine covenant with us. People are tired of lessons; teachings are very important, but we must show the results of the teachings and lessons, Jesus is the same, bible says, so we need to be bold, we need to dare, and our God will show the world who we are in Him. All honour all power be to the king Jesus, HA Mashiah!.

Bom, o Natal esta quase chegando. O ano passou tao rapido. Esta e a epoca no qual muito de nos prepocupamos com coisas como:

*O que eu vou vestir?
*O que irei fazer??
* O que acontecera com a economia em 2010?
* Sera que eu ainda terei meu emprego?

O Senhor comoveu o meu coração esta manhã para encoraja-los com essa Sagradas Escrituras.

Salmos 139-23.
23- Sonda-me, ó Deus, e conhece o meu coração; prova-me, e conhece os meus pensamentos

Primeiramente Davi reconheceu suas necessiades. Nos tambem temos muitas ansiedades. Este e o modo em qual fomos criados. O fato que voce tem ansiedades e preocupacoes sobre os problemas desta vida nao te faz uma pessoa nao- espiritual.
Esta e a realidade da nossa existencia humana. Isso nao acabara.

Prov. 12:25.
25- A ansiedade no coração deixa o homem abatido, mas uma boa palavra o alegra.

E incrivel como uma so palavra pode levantar seu espirito. A palavra de Deus e como um bom remedio para nossa alma e nosso espirito. Ate para nos que pregamos uma palavra “dura”, nunca devemos nos esquecer da importancia da ministracao. Devemos sempre ter uma palavra encorajadora para aqueles que sao incapaz de controlar as ansiedades da vida.

Deus tem sempre uma boa maneira de levantar as nossas fraquezas atraves de sua palavra.
A biblia diz que nos devemos transferir nossas opressoes a ele. Isto nao e incrivel? Imagina voce esta indo numa longa viagem a pe e voce tem alguem que esta carregando as suas malas pra voce?

Filipenses 4: 4-7
4 Regozijai-vos sempre no Senhor; outra vez digo, regozijai-vos. 5- Seja a vossa eqüidade notória a todos os homens. Perto está o SENHOR. 6- Não estejais inquietos por coisa alguma; antes as vossas petições sejam em tudo conhecidas diante de Deus pela oração e súplica, com ação de graças.
7 E a paz de Deus, que excede todo o entendimento, guardará os vossos corações e os vossos sentimentos em Cristo Jesus.

Permaneca no conhecimento , pois o Senhor esta no controle de tudo. Comunica-se regularmente com Deus e informe a ele sobre toda as suas lutas. Voce recebera uma impartacao de paz que esta alem da compensao humana. Que hoje voce receba paz em seu coracao. Que voce seja abencoado e encorajado. Voce e o servo do Altissimo Deus, O sacerdócio real que pretence a Ele. Deus tem a responsabilidade de honrar o sua alianca conosco.

Abracos e cumprimentos a todos,

Message translated by Irene Da Silva-Pillay.

GOD IS SPEAKING TO KING/PRIESTS : HUMBLE YOURSELVES

2 Chron 7:11-16
11 When Solomon had finished the temple of the LORD and the royal palace, and had succeeded in carrying out all he had in mind to do in the temple of the LORD and in his own palace, 12 the LORD appeared to him at night and said:
“I have heard your prayer and have chosen this place for myself as a temple for sacrifices.
13 “When I shut up the heavens so that there is no rain, or command locusts to devour the land or send a plague among my people, 14 if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land. 15 Now my eyes will be open and my ears attentive to the prayers offered in this place. 16 I have chosen and consecrated this temple so that my Name may be there forever. My eyes and my heart will always be there.

After all the structures are in place, the temple is built, the consecration is complete….all this is man’s efforts;
Anyone who has money can build a Church. This does not mean that God will move in that place or that God will visit that place; even if you have a red cross on the building…this is simply to inform the passers by that this is a Church where people gather. All the outward signs are for identification by society.
This building has to be a dwelling place for believers who are called by His Name; those who trust in Him for all things.
A spirit of humility is required before you can even pray.

If you carefully study this scripture, you will notice how God outlines the protocols for breaking the back of a recession; breaking the curse of a financial drought.

“ ……will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways…..”

He prioritises humbling yourself above prayer.
There is so much logic in this.
It is impossible for man to turn from his wicked ways unless he humbles himself, prays, seeks his face.
This is the reason we are caught up in a financial drought.
Not because we don’t pray …..all of us pray
Not because we do not seek His face ….. we experience powerful times in His Presence

WE ARE IN A FAMINE BECAUSE OF A REFUSAL TO HUMBLE OURSELVES

This is what we call an entry level demand.
God resists the proud but He gives grace to the humble.

God is speaking powerfully to the kings and priests who walk in pride and arrogance in this season :
“HUMBLE YOURSELF UNDER GOD’S MIGHTY HAND”
(before He humbles us)

King Solomon was wiser than Einstein; wealthier than Bill Gates. Yet God showed Himself to be no respecter of persons.
If we want our breakthrough and experience dominion, the primary demand is for us to humble ourselves.

Just returned from Swaziland after ministering to Roderick Houston and friends at the Assemblies of God Church. Swaziland experienced major storms this week. However, this did not affect the passion of the people for the Word of the Lord. Roderick has already connected us to his friends in Ermelo, Ixopo and Kokstad.
We have discussed the possibilty of opening a school in Matsapha; this would position us as a non aligned entity and make us attractive to believers from various Church affiliations.
