INSPIRATIONAL NEWSLETTER

WEDNESDAY

AUGUST 12, 2026

We pray that this newsletter and its contents that we share will help you on your daily journey with Christ, causing you to grow in the ways of the Lord.

The giftings of the fivefold ministry (Apostle, Prophet, Evangelist, Pastor, Teacher) should have one purpose, and that is the teaching and equipping of the saints until we come into unity.

This is why we teach so that you can grow stronger in your faith until unity comes in the body of Christ. Take what you have learned and share it with others so that we can further the kingdom for Jesus Christ.

TAKE OFF THE BLINDERS

If you study the word of God and understand what will happen in the last days, one of the things that is stressed by Jesus over and over again, is “Do not be deceived.” Deception runs rampant and with it comes those that buy into that deception. They have been deceived or fooled because Satan has blinded their eyes.

Many shake their heads and say, “How can they be so blind?” But here is what it says in the word. 2 Corinthians 4: 3-4 says, “3 But if our gospel (the good news of Jesus Christ) be hid, it is hid to them that are lost: 4 In whom the god of this world (Satan) hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.”

Satan’s job is to deceive, bring blindness, to bring fear, doubt, and unbelief to those that do not know the Lord. He also brings these same things to Christians that are ignorant of the Word of God by blinding them to the truth.

Today, as I went to the bank, a woman in full burka (Muslim women’s garb) came on to the sidewalk as I was about to get into my car. I smiled, but she chose to walk completely around me. No eye contact, no interaction. I know without a doubt that the deceived spirit within her saw the Spirit of God in me and caused her to react this way. She has bought into a false religion, and believes it. The deception that has been ingrained will cause her and others like her to raise children to hate Christians and Jews. It has been long known that the war in Revelation will be a family war. Ishmael’s descendants (Muslims) against Isaac’s descendants (Christians and Jews).

War is coming. You must decide whose side you are on. Choose wisely. Do not be deceived. Stand with Jesus Christ. Take off the blinders.

PROPHETIC WORDS AND EXHORTATIONS

I am reposting this today because it is imperative that you are prepared for what is coming.

HELEN SANDERS

PROPHETIC WORD

8-10-2026

My children I am calling you unto myself for change is about to happen very rapidly. For those that have taken the time to spend time with me, the change will only be a disruption, but for those that have not prepared it will be a time of great sorrow. Many that thought they were rocks but will and sifted like sand; and many that thought they were nothing will be strong because they lean upon me, the rock of their salvation. As we move into this season of change do not let fear grip your heart, for fear would like to dominate my children. But I have told you that fear is not of me, but power; power through the Holy Spirit, and through my agape love flowing out of you and into you, and a soundness of mind that does not lean unto its own understanding. In the days ahead there will be gross darkness penetrating every area of life. It will try to overcome your light, but I would say that this is the hour for you to shine brighter than ever, making a stand for light and not for darkness. Do not be afraid my child, for the light in you is greater than the darkness that is coming. Breathe in the life of my Spirit and saturate yourself in my word and in my presence and you shall see that this is your time to do great exploits. Now come to me my child and let me shower my love upon you. Let my loving arms carry you through the days ahead and strengthen you. For you were called for such a time as this.

Wednesday Word of the Lord

New voices are coming. They will be the ones I have chosen to begin a new season. They will be girded with strength and power. They will lead My people in great deeds. Their names are written in My hand and I will lead them. The final battle is fast approaching. But they will fight with no fear because they believe! I have won this fight but to many I have lost. In the end they will see My glory and I will sit at the right hand of My Father and judgment will come.

What I understood the Lord to mean by new voices, was new leaders in the prophetic.

Amen and Amen

APOSTLE PAT MURRAY

PROPHETIC EXHORTATION

_____________

One of the hardest things in life is to for you to remember this one IMPORTANT thing and that is; You KNOWING which BRIDGE to CROSS, which BRIDGE to BURN...And which BRIDGE to AVOID altogether. Oh, but you may want to keep in mind that OLD BRIDGES will BURN SLOW. Yes, they'll keep HANGING around and WATCHING everything you do. So you be PREPARED to STAND your ground and don't ever be PULLED BACK into it again. However, you just simply WALK AWAY; Don't look BACK and MOVE on to where GOD is now LEADING you to. After all you can be assured that our faithful, loving, all knowing and all seeing God has got this; So you just fervently PRAY, sit back and fully TRUST HIM!!

When your season in God changes, your atmosphere will often look very different. Either a new perception of it or a big change of location. Old lifestyles often don't fit in the same environment, especially in a real drastic season change by God.
