THE WISDOM OF GOD IMPARTED TO US by Kim Hadaway

Wisdom is a part of the substance of God, it is part of the seven fold spirit of God and it is also a wonderful gift that He imparts to us as believers.  In James 1:5 it states if any one lacks wisdom, let him ask of the Lord and He will give it, liberally, but the word also tells us to get understanding as well.

When Solomon was appointed King he went to inquire of the Lord, to praise the Lord, offer sacrifice, but he also desired to have impartation of the wisdom of God. When asked by the Lord what He desired in 2 Chronicles 1:7-12, we see that he asked for wisdom, and knowledge so he would know how rule as he should. The Lord gave him, wisdom, knowledge, riches and honor as well, because the request of his heart was to be wise and steward what the Lord had given him with excellence and his heart was to be a good leader and serve the people well.

(Here are a just a few scriptures that speak of the Wisdom of Solomon) 1 Kings 4:29, 30, 1 Kings 5:12, 1 Kings 4:34, 1 Kings 7:14, 1 Kings 10:4, 23, Luke 11:31.

This is a gift that God imparted to him and nations were drawn to him to enquire of this wisdom, but were also impacted by the vast wealth he possessed as well.

When we inquire of the Lord and rely on Godly wisdom and understanding and don’t lean to our own wisdom and understanding we find we do possess great wealth, (although I know the vast riches Solomon possessed were also literal gold, silver, and riches etc….)

The word tells us that we should not lean to our own understanding and that is exactly what Solomon was asking of the Lord. That he would truly possess the wisdom and understanding of God and he was blessed beyond what he could even think or imagine as the Lord imparted these gifts to him.

It is the desire of the Lord that all His children are blessed and live inside of His wisdom, entreat His wisdom, understanding, knowledge, council, might….. and He will pour it out on us.

We as children of God have been blessed with every spiritual blessing in heavenly places, we just need to thank the Lord for them, and pull them in to our reality by faith.

One way we do this is through prayer and thanksgiving and decree.

When you read about Solomon, He went up to the tabernacle of meeting, this is the place the Lord stated in Exodus that the Lord would meet with us and speak with us there.

We all have a tabernacle of meeting and it is within us all as Children of God, all we have to do is believe it and receive it.

When we inquire of the Lord He hears us and not only hears but answers us when we pray. He loves our thanksgiving and praise; in fact the word tells us He inhabits our praise.

Let me give you some more scriptures that speak of wisdom, and encourage you to meditate on them and invite Wisdom to be imparted to you, Godly Wisdom!

Here are a few scriptures to meditate on, James 1:5, Proverbs 4:7, and Proverbs 2:2-7…..

LET THE PEACE OF GOD RULE by Kim Hadaway

I was recently in prayer and in the Spirit I saw what you would see on a Doppler radar for an upcoming and approaching hurricane. What I was drawn to was the center, what they call the eye.

In the center or the eye of the storm it is said that all wind and turmoil in a storm is no longer present and there is only calm.

When the disciples were on the boat with Jesus the storm came up but Jesus was at perfect peace and asleep, the disciples in unrest and fear of the storm around them.

In this story we know that the disciples in their fear and unrest went and woke Jesus, Jesus then spoke to the storm and commanded it to be silent.

Then He arose and rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, Peace, be still!” And the wind ceased and there was a great calm. (Mark 4:39)

“The LORD will fight for you, and you shall hold your peace.” (Exodus 14:14)

In this portion of scripture the children of Israel had been set free from years of captivity and slavery, but then the enemy began to pursue them again, fear gripped them as they saw the army of the enemy approaching with such fierceness. The Lord then tells Moses to speak to the children of Israel, Gods children, and tell them to stand still and HOLD THEIR PEACE because the enemy would be dealt with by God Himself and it was and is still true to this day.

We then see the Lord share another secret with us, He spoke to Moses and told Him to stretch out the rod of authority that the Lord had given him and use it.

We all have been given peace as children of God and authority to speak to those things that threaten us with unrest or in our way to living our lives as promised.

Again, Jesus shares again what He has given us..

Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid. (John 14:27)

In the New Living Translation it is worded this way. “I am leaving you with a gift—peace of mind and heart. And the peace I give is a gift the world cannot give. So don’t be troubled or afraid.

And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body; and be thankful. (Colossians 3:15)

WE as Children of God have been blessed with Every Spiritual Blessing in Heavenly places and we are created to live in the center of peace and when the storms of life or of the world or past bondages threaten to come at us, we have been given authority to speak to these things and command them to BE SILENT.

Let’s join together and lay hold of this wonderful treasure that Jesus has imparted to us and INVITE THE PEACE OF GOD TO RULE IN OUR MIDST AND TRULY HOLD ONTO OUR PEACE. If people or circumstances that are in caos try to come at us to invade our world we can influence it with our peace instead of letting it rule us with its caos.

One way we can do this is through prayer and praying the above scriptures in the form of thanksgiving.

I pray that the PEACE OF GOD WILL TRULY RULE IN YOUR HEARTS AND THAT YOU LIVE IN THE CENTER OF HIM AND HIS GIFT FOR YOU.

Blessings,

Impact of intercession felt around the world!

Patricia King just returned home from a 7 week ministry trip to many nations around the world.

As she shared in our staff meeting the amazing testimonies of all God did in this journey I was reminded of the impact of intercession.

While Patricia was planning this trip intercession was taking place, while she traveled many intercessors prayed for her and the people and nations she would minister to. While she ministered many people in the nations she ministered in shared how they were and are impacted by the Godly media produced and released through xpmedia.com.

As I heard this I reflected on the years of intercession into all these areas. Prayer for the nations to hear and receive and for the many ways God chooses to have the good news shared, the vehicle of media being one major way.

I know that many around the world cry out for peace, joy, salvation, healing, deliverance, life, abundance and Jesus is all of this to us all if we will just receive Him. But this message is also poured out in intercession to pave the way for the world to be opened up to receive this message. John the Baptist did this in while in the wilderness, He prepared the way in intercession and prophetic declarations and cries of awakening. He called for all blockage to be removed, He called for every place that would be a stumbling block to be removed, He called for every mountain or high place to be brought down and every valley lifted up….He released the anointed cry “PREPARE YE THE WAY OF THE LORD!”

Jesus the King has come and is being revealed to the nations. The word of God says that every knee will bow; every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord.

The word says,” The earth WILL be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord as the waters cover the sea.” Habakkuk 2:14

Through the gift of intercession we can see this accomplished.

The word in Revelations 8 also says that when we pray that our prayers and praise fill the bowls of heaven and they are sent back down to earth as answered prayers that leave an amazing impact, and when they hit the earth they hit with Lightning’s, Thundering, and Earthquakes!

Talk about impacting prayer. Your prayers truly do have a massive impact if we align our hearts and prayers with Heaven. The words of Jesus as He taught the disciples to pray were this, “When you pray, pray, OUR Father who is in Heaven, Your Kingdom Come, Your Will be done, ON EARTH AS IT IS IN HEAVEN…….! Matthew 6:9, 10…

Let’s join together and pray for the Knowledge of the Goodness of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ to Fill the Earth that the fullness of Salvation, will be fully made known and received by every nation, tribe and tongue!

THE TREASURE OF LOVE by Kim Hadaway

This year we at XP ministries are praying into many different areas of increase.

At the beginning of this year I personally felt one main area I needed to increase in was in the area of Love. This is one of the greatest treasures we have from the Lord!

I had experienced a situation with someone on December 31st. I wasn’t feeling very loving toward them because of the situation I was facing at the time. My thoughts in the moment, because of my frustration were not to reproduce love, in fact just the opposite.

The word of God does not tell us to love others according to how we feel in the moment. We are to love as we have been loved. In Ephesians 3 it says that we are too be rooted and grounded in love and that is not just know we are loved but release that love.

In the moment I was reminded of an experience that a well known prophet had years earlier. He actually died and, as he stood before the Lord, the Lord asked him a question, “While you were on the earth, Did You Learn To Love?”

The man obviously came back from death to life and one of the messages that he was to carry was that of Love.

This question resounded in me, “Have I learned to love? Not just when I am loved?” and I honestly had to say no. At that moment I too knew that I needed to focus on this great gift that have been given to me and release it to others. And that includes those who are not so lovely at times (which we all fit that description at certain moments in our lives).

So this is what happens, I began to live and walk this one out.

I had to 1st choose to love and then decree and release love and will to do so.

As I began to experience this I also began to focus on many scriptures where the characteristics of love are described. How does love behave? 

Below are many scriptures we as a team and ministry are decreeing and focusing on.

What you focus on you will empower.

We are also decreeing we will increase in LOVE!

Join us in decreeing that you too are increasing in love. Here are a few scriptures.

1 Corinthians 13, Matthew 22:37-40, 1 John 4:8, Ephesians 3:16-19, John 13:34, 35.

You are loved!
