January 6, 2023
Many years ago, the Lord had spoken to me about the condition of the body of Christ. He would show me different things that would make my Spirit grieve. I realised very quickly that It was His Spirit in me that was grieving. One day while in a local church service, I literally saw the Holy Spirit leave the building, at seeing this, I knew the church was in a lot of trouble.
Not long after this, the Lord gave me a prophetic warning dream for this church. Unfortunately they didn’t heed to the warning, and it fell in a heap. I knew in my spirit that Holy Spirit had left many churches around the world, Holy Spirit left the building. I went into prayer and asked Him why He was so grieved to the point of leaving? He said to me, “I didn’t leave – THEY have KICKED ME OUT! THEY have become LOVERS OF SELF, focusing on PROGRAMS, POSITIONS, MONEY, POPULARITY, Prophecy has become A GOD, and the physical building is seen as ‘the church’. Don’t they realise THEY ARE the church? The building is just a place to gather. How do you go to church when you ARE the church? Do they forget they are to BE the church, not DO church. They believe they are led by My Spirit, but they are led by their own ideas, their own desires, their own plans. THEY choose their OWN disciples and leaders and the ones I CHOOSE they ignore or try to control. They have become THEIR OWN GODS, worshiping their gods of programs, positions, money, popularity, prophecy and building their own kingdoms. I called them to repent but they haven’t.
Psalm 115:4-8, Their idols are mere silver and gold, made by human hands. They have mouths, but they can’t speak; they have eyes, but they can’t see; they have ears, but they can’t hear; they have noses, but they can’t smell; they have hands, but they can’t feel; they have feet, but they can’t walk; with their throats they can’t make a sound. The people who make them will become like them, along with everyone who trusts in them. (CJB)
Psalm 127:1, Unless Adonai builds the house, its builders work in vain. Unless Adonai guards the city, the guard keeps watch in vain. (CJB)
The Lord continued to say, “I HAVE HAD ENOUGH! I will raise up a remnant who will be led by MY SPIRIT ONLY! The SPIRIT OF TRUTH! I am taking things back to the book of Acts in every way and my REMNANT will raise up in these last days, in ways you have not seen before. The remnant will BE the true church, the true body of Messiah!”.
Isaiah 43:19, I am doing something new; it’s springing up — can’t you see it? I am making a road in the desert, rivers in the wasteland. (CJB).
I have seen the Lord doing this ever since he spoke these things to me all those years ago. He has been raising up a remnant who have a heart for Him, a heart for righteousness’, who love Holiness and walk in the Spirit of TRUTH! I believe these ones are all over the world who God has been preparing for such a time as this! They have been, scoffed at, slandered, misunderstood, and suffered much in silence. In the scoffing, slander, misunderstandings and sufferings, the Lord your God, Adonai, has built and established and ARMY OF RESILIANCE!
2 Corinthians 4:8-11, We have all kinds of troubles, but we are not crushed; we are perplexed, yet not in despair; persecuted, yet not abandoned; knocked down, yet not destroyed. We always carry in our bodies the dying of Yeshua, so that the life of Yeshua may be manifested in our bodies too. For we who are alive are always being handed over to death for Yeshua’s sake, so that Yeshua’s life also might be manifested in our mortal bodies. (CJB)
2023 IS THE START OF ACTION!
In prayer a few weeks ago I heard the Lord say, “This New Year of 2023 is the START of ACTION”. As I heard Him telling me this, I felt a MAJOR shift in the Spirit! He then led me to the book of Acts 1 & 2. The disciples were taught by Yeshua/Jesus for a time, and before He ascended to Heaven, He told them to go wait for the PROMISE – (The REMNANT DISCIPLES have been in training and waiting for the PROMISES) – You know who you are, and you know what I am talking about.
In Acts 1: 8 Yeshua/Jesus told the disciples that when this promise comes, they will receive POWER. This happened in the upper room when Holy Spirit fell on them, both men, and women. They ALL were filled with POWER. Sadly, the church has had it so very wrong and taken scripture out of context. Shavuot/Pentecost was NEVER about speaking in tongues. Yes, tongues are real and is a gift from God, but this was NEVER what it was about. Tongues should NEVER have become the primary focus in the body of Christ. Shavuot/Pentecost was ALWAYS about GOD’S POWER being DEMONSTRATED THROUGH THE DISCIPLES as a WITNESS to all those around them, and to the GLORY of GOD.
We are about to see the DEMONSTRATION of GOD’S POWER in ways we have never seen before. Praise God! We have fasted, we have prayed, we have fasted, we have prayed and now it is time for ACTION! It’s time to declare and degree the POWER and the GLORY of the Lord! It’s time! Prayers will be answered before they are even spoken. Isaiah 65:24, Before they call, I will answer; while they are still speaking, I will hear. Things are going to happen so fast and sadly many are not ready, but the Lord says, “I AM MOVING WHETHER YOU ARE READY OR NOT!”
GOD WILL RAISE UP THE UNKNOWNS.
A few weeks ago, I had a dream of two well-known prominent Leaders in the body of Christ
In the dream, my husband, Emanuel and I were going out for lunch. We entered the café and I saw a well-known deliverance minister and his wife sitting at a table in the café. As we approached our table which was next to theirs, this minister waved at us. I waved back and said, ‘I have seen your videos on YouTube, they are very interesting!’ I looked over at this minister’s wife to say hi and noticed she looked very sad with her head hung. (I don’t know these people personally nor have I ever met them). This minister and I started talking about deliverance, as this was something that I was interested in, and have also moved in this type of ministry. Emanuel must have also noticed the wife’s sadness so he asked if he could pray for her? She said yes. As Emanuel went to pray for her, her husband leaned across, put his hand out and said NO. Emanuel didn’t hear Him so I turned to him and said, ‘Emanuel, he said no. Emanuel looked at me and said, “What!” I said, ‘Her husband said no you can’t pray for her’. With the wife now crying, Emanuel stood up, looked at the minister and said, “IT IS NOT ME YOU ARE REJECTING, IT IS GOD YOU ARE REJECTING”. Emanuel then walked over to our table. I then said to the minister, ‘I get that you don’t know us, but you have not DISCERNED the SPIRIT OF GOD, you are focused on the natural, Emanuel is very gifted in the word of knowledge, and he had healing words for your wife”. I then went to our table.
Almost straight away on the other side of the café was a loud commotion. I looked over to see another well-known minister being very loud and boisterous. (In real life this minister is quite loud and boisterous). He was getting into an argument with some people. I knew he had been drinking and it got out of control. I looked over to the left of the room to see another person sitting on a stool by himself laughing and encouraging the fight. This person looked very evil and had a very evil laugh. I knew it was a demon in disguise. I woke up.
This is what I felt the Lord was showing me in this dream. If you feel you have anymore insight, feel free to share. This is what the Lord highlighted to me.
- Some of those well-known ministers in the body of Christ are so focused on their ministries they are not seeing what is going on in their own families. They are so focused on their ministries they are not discerning others God is raising up – God is going to raise up the unknowns very quickly and some well-known ministers will not recognise the Spirit of God in these ones because they are too caught up in doing their own thing.
- As God raises up these unknown ones in mighty and powerful ways, some known ministers will feel rejected, will be jealous and reject them, this is because THE LAST SHALL BE FIRST! These well-known ministers who start to feel rejected run the risk of falling into old patterns/bad habits and the devil is sitting back laughing. Warning! Don’t be a Saul and reject the David’s. As the Lord was revealing this to me, he also said, “DON’T FORGET THE DEVIL KNOWS YOUR WEEKNESSESS”.
This is a warning for those ministers who are too focused on their own ministries. To the ministers who start to see the unknowns rise-up in these times, and to the whole body of Messiah to never forget that the devil knows our weaknesses.
1 Peter 5:8-9,8 Stay sober, stay alert! Your enemy, the Adversary, stalks about like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. 9 Stand against him, firm in your trust, knowing that your brothers throughout the world are going through the same kinds of suffering. (CJB)
Then the Lord led me to Genesis 20:1-6
Then Abraham journeyed from there to the land of the Negev and settled between Kadesh and Shur. While he was dwelling as an outsider in Gerar, Abraham said of Sarah his wife, “She is my sister.” So King Abimelech of Gerar sent for and took Sarah. But God came to Abimelech in a dream at night and said to him, “Behold, you are as good as dead, because of the woman whom you have taken—since she is a married woman.” Now Abimelech had not come near her. So he said, “My Lord, will You slay a nation, even though innocent? Didn’t he say to me, ‘She’s my sister’? And she herself even said, ‘He’s my brother.’ I did this with integrity of my heart and guiltlessness of my hands.” Then God said to him in a dream, “Yes, I myself knew that you did this with integrity of your heart, so I, yes I Myself prevented you from sinning against Me. That is why I did not allow you to touch her.
As I was reading this, my attention was drawn too, “I myself prevented you from sinning against me”. God is, and will warn those well-known ministers not to fall into sin by becoming jealous or feeling rejected, or risk falling into old temptations and habits, because these unknown ones He is raising up WILL BECOME FIRST!
Matthew 20:8-16, “Now when evening came, the owner of the vineyard said to his foreman, ‘Call the workers and pay them their wages, beginning from the last to the first.’ And those who had come about the eleventh hour each received a denarius. And when the first came, they supposed that they would receive more; yet they too received a denarius. “But when they received it, they began to grumble against the master of the house, saying, ‘These last guys did one hour, and you’ve made them equal to us, who bore the burden and scorching heat of the day!’ “But answering, he said to one of them, ‘Friend, I’m doing you no wrong. Didn’t you agree with me on a denarius? Take what is yours and go. But I want to give this last guy the same as you. Am I not permitted to do what I want with what belongs to me? Or is your eye evil because I am good?’ “So the last will be first, and the first last.”
The Lord said to me that as he raises these ones up, just like the pharisees told Jesus He was of Beelzebub the prince of demons, they will say the same of you remnant warriors. Do not be discouraged, keep your eyes firmly fixed Jesus. I would encourage those well know leaders to embrace and encourage those God is raising up or you risk REJECTING THE SPIRIT OF GOD.
THE GLORY OF THE LORD!
Revelation 1:14-17, His head and His hair were white like wool, white like snow, and His eyes like a flame of fire. His feet were like polished bronze refined in a furnace, and His voice was like the roar of rushing waters. In His right hand He held seven stars, and out of His mouth came forth a sharp, two-edged sword. His face was like the sun shining at full strength. When I saw Him, I fell at His feet like a dead man. But He placed His right hand on me, saying, “Do not be afraid! I am the First and the Last. (TLV)
Isaiah 42:8, “I am Adonai—that is My Name! My glory I will not give to another, Or My praise to graven images
We have all heard prophetic words about the coming Glory, I myself, have also given them. On pondering about Gods Glory, He asked me a question! “Tziyona, what is my Glory?” As the Lord asked me this question, I had a Holy fear come over me. O’ Lord, your Glory is not airy-fairy gold dust like some believe. Your Glory is to be revered, respected, and honoured. It is Holy, mighty, powerful, fearful, glorious, righteous and comes with an almighty dread for some. O’ Lord, I have a Holy fear when I think about your Glory. 1 Chronicles 29:11, Yours, Adonai, is the greatness, the power and the splendor, and the victory and the majesty, indeed everything in heaven and earth. Yours is the kingdom, Adonai and You are exalted above all.
Everyone is excited about the coming glory, and so am I, but do you really know what that means? For some this is a time of dread, even for the body of Messiah. Like I said before the Lord is taking us back to the book of Acts in every way and we know the story in Acts 5:1-11, about Ananias and Sapphira who lied and were struck dead and great fear came upon all who heard about it. Sadly, there are many Ananias and Sapphira’s within the body. Do not be fooled, God will not be mocked. We want the grace, the mercy, the joy, the signs, the wonders, the miracles, but what the body of Messiah really needs, is the reverent fear of Almighty God!
Proverbs 10:27, The fear of Adonai adds length to life, but the years of the wicked are cut short. (CJB)
I will end with this. Get excited! But do not take the Glory of the Lord lightly, yes, it is amazing, wonderful, and powerful but this is the Lord God Almighty, the maker of heaven and earth we are taking about, and His Glory is Holy, Holy, Holy and will come as dread for some. His glory is His presence manifested in might and glorious ways, but also dreadful ways that even demons tremble, should we not also tremble at the thought while also embracing Glory.
Get ready remnant, the wait is over. For some the start of this year may not have turned out like you thought, it may seem like things are not getting any better but that’s what the enemy wants you to believe. The enemy is heating up the action also, but the ACTION OF THE LORD is 3-fold over the enemy. Hold onto the promises it’s going to be wonderful, exciting, yet dreadful for those not on His side. Stay close to His heart. IT’S TIME FOR ACTION! The ARMY OF RESILIANCE is breaking forth! Praise God!
Psalm 145:11-12, They declare the glory of Your kingdom and speak of your might, to make known to the sons of men His mighty acts and the glory of the majesty of His kingdom. Amen.
Blessings, Tziyona Arkoulis
