Holy Spirit Special
At this time the battle is really tough in the spirit. You cannot at this time just hold on to a promise, but cling to Jesus. See him as the salvation and lay hold on him.

No matter how clearly the word of God talks of the Baptism of the Holy Spirit. A lot of people just don’t seem to get it. I have had to do a lot of convincing people through the word why they cannot do without the Holy Spirit if they desire a successful walk with the LORD here on earth.

After much persuasion, many would receive him and they would be so exciting, exuding with life and wondering what they would have done if they had not received him.

This is the period the church is remembering through Pentecost the promise of the Holy Sprit given to us.

Hence, I felt led to share this short word for many out there that may have questions and to urge as many people to seek this unspeakable gift.

In Acts 8:5-17 the scriptures clearly show us that baptism of the Holy Spirit is different from been baptized in the name of Jesus or being born again.

First we hear that Philip after the Holy Spirit was given in Acts chapter two, Went to preach to the people at Samaria. The word of God clearly shows us the message he went there to preach.

It said he went to preach Christ.

Then Philip went down to the city of Samaria, and preached Christ unto them. Acts 8:5


They are different kinds of preaching in the word of God.


•There is the preaching of Moses( the Law)

For Moses of old time hath in every city them that preach him, being read in the synagogues every sabbath day. Acts15:21

•There is the preaching of the baptism of John (Repent and believe on him that was to come)

This man was instructed in the way of the Lord; and being fervent in the spirit, he spake and taught diligently the things of the Lord, knowing only the baptism of John. Acts18:25

•There is the Preaching of Christ the resurrected.

For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures: 1Corinthians 15:4-5

So Philip preached the accurate word of God to the people of Samaria which is the preaching of Christ. We are told in the verse below their response.

But when they believed Philip preaching the things concerning the kingdom of God, and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women. Acts 8:12

They believed in the name of Jesus Christ and were genuinely born again. Baptized in the name of Jesus Christ.


Many of us will think this is enough, but look at what the scriptures say was the next step the Apostle took these believers through;

Now when the apostles which were at Jerusalem heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent unto them Peter and John: Who, when they were come down, prayed for them, that they might receive the Holy Ghost: Acts 8:14-15

You need someone to help you disbelieve this. This is so clear and simple as it can get. The word says as many as received him to them gave he power to become the sons of God (John 1:12).

When the apostles heard that the people in Samaria had believed, they sent Peter and John to go and pray for these believers to receive the baptism of the Holy Spirit.

Oh it doesn’t stop there; the reason is very well explained in the following verse;

(For as yet he was fallen upon none of them: only they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.) Acts 8:16

They believed and were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus but the Holy Spirit had not fallen upon them yet. They desired that these believers receive power from on high. Without him they were powerless in executing God’s will;

But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth. Acts 1:8


You need him, you ought to have him, and you dare not miss out. The LORD wants to pour out the Holy Spirit upon you even now more than you do. Look at what he says;

If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him? Luke 11:13

Just dare to believe. Dare to ask your father of this unspeakable gift and receive him right where you are. Pray with me below:

Father I thank you that you love me, I thank you that you sent your son to die for all my sins and was raised from the dead, qualifying me for this inheritance. By faith I ask today that you baptize me with your Holy Spirit. I believe I receive the gift of the Holy Spirit with tongues accompanying. Welcome Holy Spirit. Thank you father, In Jesus name, Amen.

In an encounter with the LORD, I saw a person skating smoothly on a tarred road then I heard the LORD say “have it the way you want”

The Holy Spirit witnessed;

I will go before thee, and make the crooked places straight: I will break in pieces the gates of brass, and cut in sunder the bars of iron: And I will give thee the treasures of darkness, and hidden riches of secret places, that thou mayest know that I, the LORD, which call thee by thy name, am the God of Israel. Isaiah 45:2

Then the LORD Said, “I AM in with you, I AM in you but I have also gone before you.

I have made your path smooth for I have destroyed the works of darkness and made a way for you. Mount up with wings and fly for you have risen in the things of the spirit.

I have open doors where you have not expected and treasures, riches you never dreamed of have been sent to you.

Be expectant, be hopeful, and look out with faith for I have done this to demonstrate my righteousness and faithfulness to my word. In this time you will know that I AM unto you GOD.

I Heard “Move, Go Forward and Take the Land.” – Pastor Jahfas Victor Ahua

Move, Go Forward and Take the Land


A lot has happened in us. Piles of human abilities have been weakened. God has touched the hip bones of many in the body of Christ in this period of Lockdown.

It is a wonderful thing when God deals with us. But most times when the dealings are over, we tend to become too fearful to step forward.

Before the dealings of God with us we think we can do it in our ability, we often think our skills, gifts and talents are enough to take us there but after his dealings, we become so emptied of self that even when it is the hour to move forward, we are often afraid to dare, lest we fail.

It happened in the life of Moses, before God’s dealings with Moses, He knew he was to lead the Israelites out of Egypt but he tried to do it in his strength and timing and failed miserably.

For he supposed his brethren would have understood how that God by his hand would deliver them: but they understood not. Acts 7:25

His brother’s lack of understanding of his call led to their betraying him. The LORD took him to the school of hard knocks right into the wilderness. But there is something in the life of Moses worthy of emulation. This man went from the palace to becoming a shepherd, suffered for forty years in the bush only to come back and save the same people that betrayed him. That’s Gods’ love in manifestation.

But before Moses left we are told;

And Moses was learned in all the wisdom of the Egyptians, and was mighty in words and in deeds. Acts 7:25

Observe carefully what the above verse speaks of his communicative abilities. It says he was mighty in word and deeds. He was educated in the wisdom of the Egyptians. A man powerful in word, but after the dealings of God with Moses hear what the Bible says;

And Moses said unto the LORD, O my LORD, I am not eloquent, neither heretofore, nor since thou hast spoken unto thy servant: but I am slow of speech, and of a slow tongue. Exodus 4:10

A man mighty in words lost faith in the ability of his words. He became so afraid after the dealings of God that it now was left to God to strongly convince and propel him to action. He lost faith in all his abilities and was now totally dependent on God’s arm.

Many of us have been brought to this position right now. God has allowed our strengths and capabilities, gifts and talents to fail us inexorably that at this moment of rising, we have become too fearful. But God is speaking.

In an encounter with the LORD, I saw the LORD offer a car key to a Christian to drive people in a car to a ministry. But I saw this believer so distracted that before he would return, the vehicle and the people left him behind. He was distracted and returned too late.

Coming out the Spirit led me to;

The LORD our God spake unto us in Horeb, saying, Ye have dwelt long enough in this mount: Turn you, and take your journey, and go to the mount of the Amorites, and unto all the places nigh thereunto, in the plain, in the hills, and in the vale, and in the south, and by the sea side, to the land of the Canaanites, and unto Lebanon, unto the great river, the river Euphrates. Behold, I have set the land before you: go in and possess the land which the LORD swear unto your fathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, to give unto them and to their seed after them. Deuteronomy 1:6-8

Then the LORD said, “This is the moment to possess the Land, it is the time to take your inheritance.


I have given you The Authority. You have the keys of the kingdom.

Do not be afraid for you have come out purified in my eyes. Do not be dismayed for I will not fail you.

You have stayed too long on this level. Move, go forward and take the Land.

The highest heavens are opened over you. This is the hour to fulfill your destiny. My Power, Grace and Gifts are activated in you.

Miracles, Signs and Wonders are now Following you.

Now! take your journey in glory.”

I Heard The LORD Say “This is Your Hour of Visitation.” – By Jahfas Victor Ahua

This is Your Hour of Visitation

There is a testing going on in our lives, this kind of testing is different, and it is like a test-run kind of thing. More like an experiment. Where things we should have faced in the open are in this moment of lockdown brought before us to deal with spiritually.

This is leading to an acceleration that will astound many. Suddenly you are reacting differently. Suddenly it takes you just a moment to get over it. Suddenly you are seeing things from a spiritual viewpoint, something in you is not just going with some decisions and you are readjusting, realigning to simply following the peace of God on your inside.

The house of God is being built. This is a work only God can do. We are made to surrender and the glory of the LORD is filling this latter house.

All our proceedings are only successful as they begin with God and are carried on by God’s hand;

Except the LORD build the house, they labor in vain that build it: except the LORD keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain. Psalm 127:1

The above verse has a lot of riches in it. Let us just glean a little from the wealth therein.

First, the building of every house begins with God, Christian or none Christian, all is by the providence of God.

The reason why we always go into transitioning is that, when things begin to go up in our lives even though with our lips we are professing that it is by God’s hand, all glory to God, deep within us, something is arrogating some glory to our efforts.
This is the reason whole nations go into transitioning. This is why the great king Nebuchadnezzar went into transitioning;

The king spake, and said, Is not this great Babylon, that I have built for the house of the kingdom by the might of my power, and for the honor of my majesty? Daniel 4:30

Understand that the above statement was made by a heathen. He was not among the people of God. Yet the moment he attributed the building of his kingdom to his power, at the same hour he went into transitioning.

The same hour was the thing fulfilled upon Nebuchadnezzar: and he was driven from men, and did eat grass as oxen, and his body was wet with the dew of heaven, till his hairs were grown like eagles’ feathers, and his nails like birds’ claws. Daniel 4:33

When we are under transitioning, it is not an entertaining period. Transitioning for the believer is not an entertaining word. It is a time of deeper submission, deeper thought, and deeper realignment where we are abased for a greater restoration. This is why whole nations go under the mighty hand of God. So we can all come to the place of humility and dependency;

And at the end of the days I Nebuchadnezzar lifted up mine eyes unto heaven, and mine understanding returned unto me, and I blessed the most High, and I praised and honored him that liveth for ever, whose dominion is an everlasting dominion, and his kingdom is from generation to generation: And all the inhabitants of the earth are reputed as nothing: and he doeth according to his will in the army of heaven, and among the inhabitants of the earth: and none can stay his hand, or say unto him, What doest thou?
At the same time my reason returned unto me; and for the glory of my kingdom, mine honor and brightness returned unto me; and my counsellors and my lords sought unto me; and I was established in my kingdom, and excellent majesty was added unto me. Now I Nebuchadnezzar praise and extol and honor the King of heaven, all whose works are truth, and his ways judgment: and those that walk in pride he is able to abase. Daniel 4:34-37

Secondly, the LORD keeps watch over what he builds. Vain is man’s watchfulness.

What he begins he performs to the end (Philippians 1:6) Our lack of trust is noticed by our over protectiveness. We go into transition some times the hard way until we realize without God’s watchfulness all is vain. We ought to be labourious, yet we have to proceed with composition and tranquil minds.

This can be accomplished by observing little things,
-When you pray, know his intercession for you is what matters. (Hebrews 7:25)

-When you walk around daily and finally lock your door to sleep at night have it at the back of your mind in Him we live and move and have our being. (Acts 17:28)

-Are you worried about you child? Remember only him builds, he gave you the child, this means he has born and will bear. (Isaiah 46:4)

In an encounter with the LORD, I saw the LORD visit a household to fulfill prophecies spoken over this house.

Coming out The Holy Ghost witnessed;

The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly. John 10:10

Then the LORD said, I AM here for the restoration. This is your hour of visitation. You are about to see a cornucopia. A plethora of My goodness, A profusion of my power in the fulfillment of my counsel upon your life.

I see all that the enemy has done but I AM now restoring.

I have more than enough, I AM the fullness of life and to you I am withholding nothing. Nothing is escaping my restoring power.

The gold is mine, the silver is mine, and I AM the life in your mortal flesh. I AM salvation, I have entered your home, watch as I restore your household.

I AM not restoring to you where you used to be but I AM taking you higher to a place you have never been.

Do not say, “I will never forget what I AM going through” for the abundance of my life will make you free from your past.

Prophetic Declarations For This Hour – By Pastor Jahfas Victor Ahua

Prophetic Declarations For This Hour

The pressure is tough but it is because we are rising. A lot of things are being expunged from us by God’s mighty hand. One moment you are there, and then the next moment God says no, a little more refining.

It is an hour to rather desire the refining, for we live in a world full of wickedness. We live as sheep among wolves even in the church. But the power of God is now revealing an unshakable foundation in us.

A man can receive nothing except it be given to him from heaven (John 3:27) and every good and perfect Gift comes our father of light (James 1:17).

A man can of his own accord never turn to God. It is the blessings or goodness of God that leads men to repentance (Romans 2:4)

Therefore, as we continue to pray and proclaim God’s word in this season of the feast of Pentecost. I felt led to share with us these declarations.

Until men realize their wretchedness they will not turn to God. God is now restoring all things.

-Thus, proclaim that the blessing of poverty in the spirit is being poured out upon all flesh for the sake of the kingdom.

Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Mathew 5:3

-Proclaim that God is comforting all that mourn in this era of restoration

Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted. Mathew 5:4

-Proclaim and thank God that he is now pouring out the spirit of meekness and the Church is inheriting the earth

Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth. Mathew 5:5

-Proclaim that the blessing of Spiritual hunger and thirst for righteousness is being poured out and whole nations are becoming hungry and thirsty for the righteousness of God.

Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled. Mathew 5:6

-Proclaim that the gift of mercy is being poured out upon all flesh and men are obtaining mercy from the LORD and showing mercy to humanity.

Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy. Mathew 5:7

-Proclaim and thank God that the spirit of purity is being poured out upon all flesh and men are seeing the visions of God.

Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God. Mathew 5:8

-Proclaim with thanksgiving that the spirit of peace is being poured out upon all flesh and whole nations are being called by the name of the LORD.

Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God. Mathew 5:9

-Proclaim with thanksgiving that the grace to endure persecution is being poured out upon the church

Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness’ sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Mathew 5:10.

As you fight the LORD’s battle, be rest assured He is building for you a sure house. 1Samuel 25:28

I Heard The LORD Say “Do Not Despise This Revival” – By Pastor Jahfas Victor Ahua

Do Not Despise This Revival

Superabundance is upon us which is what the devil cannot shut our mouths from proclaiming. We dare to still prophesy because God is daily bearing witness and commanding us to keep proclaiming.

What is happening now is nothing new to God. Elisha prophesied Superabundance in the day of Israel’s captivity to the fear of the Syrians. A lord said even if the LORD would make windows in heaven, might this thing be?

But it came to pass at the right hour even as the LORD had purposed (2kings 7:1-8). To the natural it looked totally impossible, but to the LORD it was to him an announcement to the world of his sovereignty over all things.

Elisha’s prophecy to Israel at that hour and the situations surrounding them at that time are synonymous to our present condition.

There is a sound of abundance in God’s kingdom. It may not be sounding the way many want it but those who see and hear it is becoming louder each day.

The rain is upon us, but look at how the rain came in the days of Elijah when he prophesied three years of no rain and then prophesied the return of the rain,

And Elijah said unto Ahab, Get thee up, eat and drink; for there is a sound of abundance of rain. 1Kings 18:41

When Elijah heard the sound of abundance of rain, I do not think the people were seeing lightening and hearing thunders. Things were still in the state they were.

So Ahab went up to eat and to drink. And Elijah went up to the top of Carmel; and he cast himself down upon the earth, and put his face between his knees, And said to his servant, Go up now, look toward the sea. And he went up, and looked, and said, There is nothing. And he said, Go again seven times. 1Kings 18:42-43

Elijah prophesied the rain but the servant went and saw nothing. Thank God for this faithful servant who kept on going to see without calling the Prophet a liar. This servant kept on believing and responding until out of the nothing he was seeing, something popped up.

And it came to pass at the seventh time, that he said, Behold, there ariseth a little cloud out of the sea, like a man’s hand. And he said, Go up, say unto Ahab, Prepare thy chariot, and get thee down that
the rain stop thee not. 1Kings 18:44

There is a powerful lesson we can learn from the above scripture. The abundance came forth in a way many would despise…. there ariseth a little cloud out of the sea. Just a little cloud was the door opener to the abundance. Little things are happening to us right now that are the beginning of the superabundant harvest.

And it came to pass in the mean while, that the heaven was black with clouds and wind, and there was a great rain. And Ahab rode, and went to Jezreel And the hand of the LORD was on Elijah; and he girded up his loins, and ran before Ahab to the entrance of Jezreel. 1Kings 18:45-46

That little cloud led to clouds, from clouds to winds and from winds to the great rain. When the rain came, the hand of God made Elijah to run faster that Ahab to jezreel.

Oh those that wait upon the LORD shall be strong, they shall mount up with wings, and they shall run and never get wearied.

In an encounter with the LORD, last year December, as we were preparing to enter into 2020, I saw a great revival that began very meager. I saw people despising the revival that was upon the church and the LORD spoke and said, “Do Not Despise This Revival”

The Holy Spirit witnessed with this scripture;

For who hath despised the day of small things? for they shall rejoice, and shall see the plummet in the hand of Zerubbabel with those seven; they are the eyes of the LORD, which run to and fro
through the whole earth. Zechariah 4:10
