1 JANUARY 2024!

 

From the desk of one of His faithful servants Chief Apostle L.R.Gooden Jr., as we embark upon the new year of 2024/5784 the Lord spoke to me that it will be a year of Open Doors for Revelation, Re-Alignment and Renewal for Prophetic Fulfillment according to:

 

Revelation 3:8 NKJV…“I know your works. See, I have set before you an open door, and no one can shut it; for you have a little strength, have kept My word, and have not denied My name.

 

The Jewish Year 5784 began on Rosh Hashanah September 15th 2023 using the Hebrew Alphabet and Gematria system.

 

5 = Grace: (1000 years - Millennium)

 

7 = Completion, perfection: (100 years - Century)

 

8 = New beginnings: (10 years - Decade)

 

4 = Door, prophetic fulfillment: (1 year - Year)

 

Of all the prophetic numbers aligned with 5784, I feel led to focus primarily on the number 4. This Hebrew year, represented by 5784, holds tremendous significance for the number 4 and its corresponding letter Dalet. I believe this year will be a season of radical transformation, renewal and realignment, if we obey the Lord’s voice. We must be aware though that there will be a spiritual battle for the effectual door of promise to be opened. While the number 4 is called Dalet in Hebrew and it represents a picture of a tent door, or open door, I believe that the Lord is speaking to us even deeper about these spiritual doors.

 

The spiritual meaning of door is the entry point to a new space. Doors represent the transition from one place to another. They are also symbolic of change, especially when they are closed or locked. When a door opens, it opens up possibilities to new experiences.  Doors can also be considered as exit points as well as entrances. The person who opens the door decides whether it will be an entrance or exit point.

 

Doors are also used to keep out unwanted visitors, but they can also be used as an invitation for others to come inside and enter into your life, mind and heart.  A door often represents the opening of new possibilities and challenges in the future.

 

2024/5784 is going to be a year of the voice of the Doorkeeper. Doors will begin to appear for many, with heavenly encounters and signs showing the way. Borders will open between new partnering nations/regions/houses. Beware of any vulnerability in defenses that may be exploited, so it is necessary to prepare your defenses before the new year.  It’s Time to chart a new path for prophetic fulfillment. 

 

In the Hebrew calendar, the number 8 symbolizes new beginnings, and the open door represents a gateway to God's blessings and breakthroughs. Just as the Israelites crossed the Red Sea on dry land, leaving behind their bondage and entering into freedom, this year will mark a significant transition for God's people. 

 

Additionally, the number 80 in Hebrew is represented by the letter "pey" (), which signifies a time of completion and fulfillment. Again, the number 4 in Hebrew is represented by the letter "dalet" (), which symbolizes a doorway or a path. It signifies stability, foundation, and the four corners of the earth. Therefore, as we step through the door of this new beginning, the number 4 reminds us to establish a solid foundation in our faith and embrace the divine path that lies ahead.

 

The open door signifies not only physical doors of opportunity but also spiritual portals unveiling fresh encounters with GOD. As we align our hearts with God's purposes, we will witness the fulfillment of His promises and experience a greater outpouring of His Spirit. It is a time to seek His face, listen intently to His voice, and step boldly through the doors that He opens before us.

 

Therefore we must stay in tune with what GOD is saying to His Church, and we know that Faith comes by Hearing and Hearing by the Word of GOD through His Prophets & Preachers. 

 

So Now Under a strong Anointing of the Holy Spirit I RELEASE TO YOU THE THEME AND SCRIPTURE FOR KBCMI FOR 5784/2024:

 

5784 The Year of the Open Door for Revelation, Realignment and Renewal for Prophetic Fulfillment!

 

Revelation 3:8 NKJV…“I know your works. See, I have set before you an open door, and no one can shut it; for you have a little strength, have kept My word, and have not denied My name.

 

It’s time for the Remnant of GOD to put their complete trust in the WORD of GOD and receive everything that GOD has in store for us in the year of 5784/2024.

 

May the Lord continue to Bless you & keep you in Jesus Name.

 

Blessings,

Chief Apostle, L.R. Gooden Jr.

MY FAVOR IS A FAVOR FROM GOD!

 

“The LORD was with Joseph and GAVE him FAVOUR in the sight of the keeper of the prison” (Gen 39:21)

I want you to understand when we have the FAVOR of GOD upon our lives we can be in prison like JOSEPH was and still have FAVOR, TELL SOMEBODY HIS FAVOR IS ALL OVER ME.

FAVOR is not FAVOR unless others can SEE IT, see you can't hide FAVOR, it has to be SEEN.  Many want GOD's FAVOR but we don't want the persecution that comes with the FAVOR. TELL SOMEBODY FAVOR AIN'T FAIR.

See When we have and OPEN INTIMACY with God, then God will grant HEAVEN to be OPENED for us. Now when we have OPEN HEAVEN, then the FAVOUR OF GOD will rest upon us and follow us like a shadow.  Can I tell you what the Bible says, SURELY GOODNESS AND MERCY SHALL FOLLOW YOU ALL THE DAYS OF YOUR LIFE. SOMEBODY SAY THATS A SHADOW.

The word “FAVOUR” simply means: “friendly or kind regard; goodness; approval; loving-kindness.”

The FAVOUR of God simply means that, God will:

  1. Regard you as his FRIEND – “No longer do I call you servant but my friend.” (Jn 15: 15)
  2. Be KIND to you – “For he is Kind even to the unthankful.” (Lk 6:35)
  3. Shine his GOODNESS on you – “Do you know that the Goodness of God leads you to repentance.” (Rom 2 : 4)
  4. APPROVE you – “Salute Appelus approved in Christ.” (Rom 16:10)
  5. Show LOVING-KINDNESS towards you – “I will show my loving kindness toward you says God.” (Jer 9:24)

OPEN FAVOR of God will also give us:

  1. A UNEQUAL ADVANTAGE – This UNEQUAL ADVANTAGE will enable us to DEFEAT the works of Satan,  who is already a defeated foe,  SUBJECT his demons under us, who have already been made subject to us through Christ and for us to KNOW the PLANS and PURPOSES of God, for which Satan will never know. (Rom 3: 1 )
  2. POWER OF ATTORNEY – God will give us to REPRESENT HIM, so that we can ACT on his behalf, SPEAK HIS WORD for him and OPERATE in the same POWER and ANOINTING as He did. Satan cannot override us, because we now become the REPRESENTATIVES of Jesus Christ here on earth. (Acts 9:15)
  3. TO GO AHEAD OF HIM – Jesus will SEND us forth ahead of him to PREPARE the way as John the Baptist did. We will go to every place that God wants his PRESENCE to be made manifest. Jesus will send us to places to ESTABLISH APOSTOLIC BASES, in our homes and churches, OPEN HEARTS that He can come and reside and open the CITIES and the NATIONS that will allow his PRESENCE to be seen and felt. (Lk 10:1)

 

When the FAVOR OF GOD is upon us, people will see and know that God is with us, they will hear what we have to say, they will act favorably towards us, hearts and minds will be open to us, Ministry will become our way of life, Power and Authority will be our sign of his presence, resources will come to us and we will not be in want, the Stature of God will encompass us, Government Leaders will seek us and Churches will align themselves to what we preach and teach.

FOR THE GLORY OF GOD!

“PUT THE DEVIL ON THE RUN?” 

(James 4:7) 

 

James 4:7 says “if we resist the devil, he will {FLEE}”! 

Ephesians 6:10-13 says “believers can overcome {ALL} of the devil’s attacks”? 

2 Corinthians 10:3-5 says believer’s “weapons are not carnal, but {MIGHTY}”! Why are so many living in {DEFEAT}? (John 10:10) 

 

I. YOU MUST BE {REBORN} :

*John 3:3 *Ephesians 6:17a *John 8:44 *I John 4:4 *John 10:9 *Luke 10:17 *Luke 22:31-32 *Romans 8:34 *Colossians 1:13-14 

 

II. YOU MUST BE {RIGHTEOUS}:
*Ephesians 6:14 *II Peter 1:5 *Ephesians 4:26-27 *Job 1:8-10 *James 1:13-15 

 

III. YOU MUST BE {RENEWED}:

*Romans 12:1-2 *John 8:30-32 *I John 2:12-14 *Hebrews 5:11-14 *James 1:8 *Isaiah 26:3-4 

 

IV. YOU MUST {RESIST)
Note: No one can do it for {YOU}! (James 4:7 & Ephesians 6:10-11) 

 

  1. The {WORD OF GOD} (Revelation 12:9-11; Ephesians 6:17b; & Matthew 4:3-4)
  2. {PRAYER} (Matthew 26:41; I Peter 5:6-8; & Ephesians 6:18)
  3. {FAITH} (I Peter 5:8-9; Ephesians 6:16;)

Conclusion: A person must “resist the devil” again and again! When the devil and demons flee, they always {RETURN}! (Luke 4:13)

IT’S PRUNING TIME IN THE HOUSE OF GOD!

 

“I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener. He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit, while every branch that does bear fruit he prunes so that it will be even more fruitful.” John 15:1-2

 

Prophetic people go through pruning at times, and whether the pruning relates to the barrenness of a winter season or the process of disobedience or rebellion we have to discern the difference.

 

7 PURPOSES OF MY PRUNING!

 

1. Pruning for Future growth

 

(Gen 37-50)

 

Joseph knew that his destiny was one of rulership, but it seemed that his life was taking the opposite course. Sold into slavery and unjustly imprisoned, he developed skills that would be invaluable to his future. During the season of trial, God may be working gifts and skills into your life that you need to fulfil His destiny in the long run.

 

2. Pruning for Refining Character

 

(James 1:4)

 

Integrity is of vital importance so that the ministry and God’s Name is not discredited. This is especially true when operating in spiritual gifts such as prophecy.

 

Other character traits that God looks for in His people are humility and the ability to persevere. After a 40-year sojourn in the wilderness, Moses was a man of great humility. God had refined his character in the desert.

 

3. Pruning for Repositioning

 

During a wilderness time, God may actually be repositioning us for a new season of fruitfulness.

 

Elijah sat under a tree in the desert and actually prayed that he would die. The Lord visited Him and gave him directions for a new season of his ministry. He was to call Elisha as his successor and anoint a new king who would bring Jezebel’s reign to an end (1 Kings 19).

 

Elijah had an appointment with God in the wilderness and so do we. During the times of difficulty or separation, allow Him to speak to you about the next season He has for your life.

 

4. Pruning for more Intimacy with God

 

(Hosea 2:14-15)

 

Testing times are seasons when we have the opportunity to get closer to God than any other time. Perhaps there are fewer distractions. Perhaps need or barrenness causes us to draw nearer to Him.

 

5. Pruning for Timing

 

While we feel as though we are fighting to survive, God is moving to change the scenery on the stage of our lives—positioning circumstances, others and us for what is to come. David went on the run from Saul in the wilderness. He was destined to become a king, but he became an outlaw first. He stayed in the desert while God worked things out on his behalf. Saul died and eventually the people called for David to be their new king.

 

6. Pruning for Strengthening our Faith

 

Abraham is known as the ‘father of faith.’ It was twenty-five barren years before Isaac was born in fulfilment of God’s promise to make him a great nation; God waited until it was physically impossible. Paul later said of Abraham in Romans 4:19-20:

 

“Without weakening in his faith, he faced the fact that his body was as good as dead—since he was about a hundred years old—and that Sarah’s womb was also dead. Yet he did not waver through unbelief regarding the promise of God, but was strengthened in his faith and gave glory to God.”

 

7. Pruning for Greater Fruitfulness

 

Pruning seasons occur when the best that we have produced is stripped away from us and every natural means of being fruitful seems to have been removed, leaving us barren (John 15:2). God is allowing fruitful areas of our lives and ministries to be cut back, in order that we can focus in a significant way.

HOW YOU WALKING?

Ephesians 2:10 (KJV)…10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.

The phrase Walk in the Spirit refers to lifestyle. In Biblical terms, to walk means to conduct oneself in a particular manner; pursue a particular course of life.

The Greek word “walk” is peripateo; it is a compound word that is made up of two words – peri means “about, concerning, around;” and the main verb pateo means “to tread, to walk along” – thus peripateo means “to stroll or walk about.” 

This Greek term is used ninety-five times in the New Testament as a metaphor for “live,” as illustrated by Paul in Ephesians 2:10). As stated earlier, to “walk in the Spirit” is to live in complete submission to the control of God’s indwelling presence – “We are not to let sin reign in our mortal body that we should obey its lusts, and we are not to present our members as instruments of unrighteousness to sin instead, we are to present ourselves to God as being alive from dead works, and our members as instruments of righteousness to God” (Rom 6:12-13).

The figurative meaning of “walking” refers to conduct –

~As believers we are to conduct our life in the paths indicated by God (2 Kg 20:3).

~As sons/daughters of righteousness walk in the light, rather than walk in darkness (1 Jn 1:7).

~The sinners way of life is to walk according to the flesh (Rom 8:4; Eph 2:2; 1 Cor 3:3).

~But Believers are to… 

•walk in Christ (Col 2:6 – that is our “position” in Christ)    

•walk according to the Spirit (Rom 8:4 – according to His leading)    

•walk in the Spirit (Gal 5:16 – that is the realm in which we are to walk)    

•walk in love (Rom 14:15; Eph 5:2; 2 Jn 1:6 – that is the essence of a godly walk)    

•walk as children of light (Eph 5:8 – that is the sphere in which we are to walk)    

•walk in good works (Eph 2:10 – our lives are to produce fruit)    

•walk in newness of life (Rom 6:4 – we are to live in this new reality)

•walk in a way that pleases God (1 Th 4:1 – by obeying God we please Him)    

•walk by faith, not by sight (2 Cor 5:7 – we must trust God and walk accordingly)    

•walk in the light and walk in the truth (1 Jn 1:7; 2 Jn 1:4; 3 Jn 1:3 – the whole way one lives proves fellowship with God – 1 Jn 1:6; 2:6)    

•walk in a manner worthy of their calling (Eph 4:1; 1 Th 2:12; Col 1:10 – conduct your life in a way that corresponds with your holy calling)

GLORY TO GOD!

WHAT THE MINORITY SAID, WHAT THE MAJORITY SAID AND WHAT GOD SAID!

One. GOD SAID: "The land of Canaan which I give unto the Children of Israel" Numbers 13:2. "Every place whereon the soles of your feet shall tread shall be yours . there shall be no man able to stand before you" - Deuteronomy 11:24-25, Joshua 1:3.

Two. TEN SPIES SAID: "We be not able to go up against the people, for they are stronger than we" Numbers 13:31. "We saw the giants . we were in our own sight as grasshoppers" - Numbers 13:33.

Three. TWO SPIES SAID: "Let us go up at once, and possess it . the Lord is with us, fear them not" - Numbers 13:30; 14:9.

Four. It is amazing! Twelve men walked side by side, saw the same country, witnessed the same conditions. All gave a glowing report of what they saw. But ten men had a negative, fearful attitude. Two had a confident, faith attitude. Ten voted for defeat and failure. Two voted for success and victory. A right and wrong attitude is what prevailed.

Five. How about you? "God has given you all things that pertain to life and godliness" 2 Peter 1:5. "He has blessed you with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ" Ephesians 1:3. "God is the giver of every good and perfect gift" James 1:17. "God delights to give you richly all things to enjoy" 1Timothy 6:17. The Bible declares "All things are yours, and you are Christ's" - 1 Corinthians 3:21.

Six. Are you praising God for these wonderful gifts which are yours? Cease glorifying your defeats, your lack, your sickness, and begin to glorify God in your victories, your supply, your health. It is high time to convert your excuses into testimonies!

Seven. On which ballot are you voting? For victory or defeat? For success or failure? Boldly affirm the scriptures that assure of conquest in all spiritual battles and you'll experience them. Be hesitant and reluctant about your provisions in Christ and you'll be defeated.

Eight. The bolder your confession of faith, the greater will be your victories. Praise God for all things that are yours. Not "I wish I was blessed," but "I am blessed with all spiritual blessings in Christ Jesus!" Hallelujah, it is so!

Nine. Confess your riches in Christ, then possess your possessions!

GLORY TO GOD!

WHAT’S TIED TO YOUR SOUL?

The Soul vs. The Spirit:

We must not let our soul rule us. The soul will always try to be in control and that is why it is of the utmost importance to feed our spirit with the Word of God, worship and prayer. 

A spiritual principle is this, “What you feed grows, what you starve dies. You don’t satisfy anything by feeding it; you only increase its capacity to grow.” So, what are you feeding the most, your spiritual man or your flesh by worldly things and entertainment?

Gal.5:16 “This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh.”  God wants us to be free from any and all types of bondages of the enemy. Ungodly soul ties have kept many from the destinies that God has ordained for them. The ungodly ties have suppressed the eternal purposes of God, and frustrated plans for many believers who want to serve God.  Many are hiding behind a mask, but behind the mask are hurt, discouragement and broken hearts.  The pain is hidden on the outside, but it is very real on the inside. It is time to take off the mask, be honest and get free.

An ungodly soul tie is when the mind, will and emotions of a person becomes entangled to the point where their thoughts are not always their own, when a person is unnaturally affected by the will, the emotions and desires of someone or something else. You can also be soul-tied to things. When things in your life are keeping you from doing what God has called you to do, it is an ungodly tie. He wants you to have good things but He does not want things to have your heart.

A godly soul-tie will strengthen your emotional wholeness and walk with God. It will bear the fruit of love, fidelity, loyalty, honor and righteousness.

An ungodly soul-tie will bear the fruit of the flesh and not the spirit; as hatred, resentment, manipulation, anger, strife, jealousy, controlling others. They will keep you from a good relationship with God and bring bondage instead of freedom into your life.

A godly soul tie is a soul tie that is within the will of God for your life. An ungodly soul tie is when you have a soul tie outside the will of God for your life.

DIG ONE MORE TIME!

Genesis 26:18-19 And Isaac digged again the wells of water, which they had digged in the days of Abraham his father; for the Philistines had stopped them after the death of Abraham: and he called their names after the names by which his father had called them. And Isaac's servants digged in the valley, and found there a well of springing water.

There are times in our lives that we are going through a spiritual valley and we want to obtain victory -- we want to have answers -- we want God's power to flow through us again but it seems like we have been forsaken by GOD. In times like these we must keep DIGGING until we hit water.

In this passage, Isaac found springing water after digging up the wells of his father Abraham again. In Hebrew, the phrase springing water is "mayim chayeem". It literally means "living waters".

Jesus has made us a promise during the feast of Sukkot (Tabernacles), "He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water." - John 7:38

The Lord promises us rivers of living water -- not a puddle, not a pond, not a lake -- He said rivers! These waters are not meant to be stagnant and not meant to be dammed up! They need to be flowing -- unrestricted like a river!

As believers of Christ, we have those living waters within us -- but we must clear out the obstacles in our lives that prevent them from flowing! Sins of unforgiveness, resentment, bitterness, and envy are just a few of the barriers which can damn up the "rivers" of living water! We all need to seek the Lord and ask him to search us deeply and thoroughly in order for us to know how to destroy those obstacles that clog the free movement of the Holy Spirit in our lives!

Let's seek the Lord and re-dig our wells again!

You will face problems, but GOD!

JOHN 16:33 These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.

In this world we will face all kinds of obstacles, trials and tribulations and we should be suspect of any doctrines or teachings that say we shouldn’t have to face them. Why? Because the Lord said we will have tribulations. So the encouragement He is giving is simply this: You’re going to face trials, but GOD is greater than any problem you will face in this world! Glory.

As problems present themselves, we should face them in the power of GOD and overcome them with Him -– because every problem is an opportunity to exhibit the love and power of God in our lives. And it’s often only through these situations that the world gets our true testimony as believers in Him!

So, lift up your head, and expect “obstacles" in this life, but continue looking up, and be filled with His joy, because the Lord has already overcome this world and our problems, and we will experience this when we simply give them over to Him!

 YOU REAP WHAT YOU SOW!

Hosea 10:12 - Sow to yourselves in righteousness, reap in mercy; break up your fallow ground; for it is time to seek the Lord, till he come and rain righteousness upon you.

This month is the start of spring and this is the time for sowing seeds. But before we can plant we must prepare the ground by clearings, digging and breaking up the fallow ground.

Whatever you plan to reap, you must sow the same seed. To reap God’s mercy, grace, forgiveness, blessing, strength, kindness, goodness, love, life, we must sow in righteousness. Sowing in righteousness is to sow things right in God’s sight, things that please GOD.

Galatians 6:7 Don’t be deceived, you can’t fool God, whatever you sow you will reap. Gal 6:8 If you sow to the flesh you will reap corruption but if you sow to the Spirit you will reap everlasting life.

Galatians 5:19-21 describes sowing to the flesh: Adultery - sex outside marriage, uncleaness - dirty-mindedness, idolatry - things before God, hatred - of others, fornication - sex before marriage, licentiousness - uncontrolled desires, sorcery - drug taking, contentions - arguments etc.

Galations 5:22-23 describes sowing to the Spirit: love - doing good to others, joy - a thankful heart to God, peace - inward rest in God, long-suffering - having a long fuse, gentleness – kindness, goodness - purity, truthfulness, faithfulness - trustworthy, reliable, meekness – Spirit-controlled, self control - personal discipline.

Hos 10:12. Break up your fallow ground, for it is time to seek the Lord until He comes and rains righteousness upon you. Before we sow we must clear the weeds and break up the soil. We do this by repentance, being honest and open with God and others we can trust. If we confess our sins God is faithful and just to forgive us and to set us free, 1Jn 1:9, Jam 5:16. If we cover our sins we will not prosper but if we confess and forsake them we will have mercy, Pro 28:13. 10. Jesus said if we continue in His Word, we are truly His disciples and we shall know the truth and the truth shall set us free from sinful bondage, Jn 8:31-36.

Once the soil is prepared, the farmer sows good seed in the good ground.

10 seeds of righteousness to sow are in Ex 20:1-17.

a. Give God first place in your life, Phil 2:10.

b. Refuse to have any other thing before Him, 1Jn 5:21.

c. Honour His Name at all times, Lk 11:2.

d. Keep the Lord’s Day for the Lord, Ps 31:15.

e. Respect and care for your parents, Mat 15:4-6.

f. Forgive, pray for and bless others who hurt you, Mat 5:44, Mk 11:25,26.

g. Keep your marriage vows to your wife/husband, Eccl 9:9, Mal 2:14-16.

h. Respect the property of others and protect it for them, Mat 7:12, Ex 23:4.

Remember you YOU REAP WHAT YOU SOW!

i. Always tell the truth, in love, about others, Eph 4:15, Ps 101:5.

j. Be content with what you have and give to others in need, 1Tim 6:6,7, Lk 6:38.

Galations 5:22-23 describes sowing to the Spirit: love - doing good to others, joy - a thankful heart to God, peace - inward rest in God, long-suffering - having a long fuse, gentleness – kindness, goodness - purity, truthfulness, faithfulness - trustworthy, reliable, meekness – Spirit-controlled, self control - personal discipline.

Hos 10:12. Break up your fallow ground, for it is time to seek the Lord until He comes and rains righteousness upon you. Before we sow we must clear the weeds and break up the soil. We do this by repentance, being honest and open with God and others we can trust. If we confess our sins God is faithful and just to forgive us and to set us free, 1Jn 1:9, Jam 5:16. If we cover our sins we will not prosper but if we confess and forsake them we will have mercy, Pro 28:13. 10. Jesus said if we continue in His Word, we are truly His disciples and we shall know the truth and the truth shall set us free from sinful bondage, Jn 8:31-36.

Once the soil is prepared, the farmer sows good seed in the good ground.

10 seeds of righteousness to sow are in Ex 20:1-17.

a. Give God first place in your life, Phil 2:10.

b. Refuse to have any other thing before Him, 1Jn 5:21.

c. Honour His Name at all times, Lk 11:2.

d. Keep the Lord’s Day for the Lord, Ps 31:15.

e. Respect and care for your parents, Mat 15:4-6.

f. Forgive, pray for and bless others who hurt you, Mat 5:44, Mk 11:25,26.

g. Keep your marriage vows to your wife/husband, Eccl 9:9, Mal 2:14-16.

h. Respect the property of others and protect it for them, Mat 7:12, Ex 23:4.

Remember you YOU REAP WHAT YOU SOW!

i. Always tell the truth, in love, about others, Eph 4:15, Ps 101:5.

j. Be content with what you have and give to others in need, 1Tim 6:6,7, Lk 6:38.
