1 GLOBAL APOSTOLIC & PROPHETIC NETWORK MONTHLY PRAYER GUIDE PROPHETIC WORD FOR 2017 PART 1 This is a part the prophetic word for 2017 that came through Dr. Abu Bako on December 31, 2016, at Logos Rhema Foundation for Leadership and Resource Development in Accra, Ghana. (Due to technical difficulties we were unable to capture the first 30 minutes of the message) (Dr. Abu Bako praying) The discipline of wisdom, the discipline of the ministry of the Holy Spirit and the seven fold Spirits of the Lord I reactivate right now in the name of the Lord Jesus. Every discipline in my life I reactivate right now in the name of the Lord Jesus. Thank you Lord God almighty because we know it is done in the name of the Lord Jesus. Amen. The year 2017 is the year of reconnection and resurrection of relationships and disciplines. It is the year of aggregation and compounding, for expressing the thing that is supposed to be lying dormant. Everything that is still outstanding, everything that looks like it was not going to come things that have been outstanding for thirty, forty years. We are talking about reconnection in terms of relationships. What is the first relationship? [It is] the relationship with God. This time around, in 2017 [it is time] to develop that relationship of knowing God as Father. There are a lot of things that are going to happen and that He can tell you This is what I was actually doing it is because I want to teach this nation or that nation this particular lesson. The rumblings in the crust of the earth, on the earth and in the heavens are going to increase. God wants you to know Him as Father. He wants to relate to you as a Father. So [it is] the relationship part as a Father. Though no man knows you yet He will be your Father. 1

2 You need to reconnect with God as the Son. He is about to take us to the place where the Fatherhood of God over nations will be released into manifestation. Where you will begin to see how God will cause nations to have true fathers. I am praying that God will help your nation to finally press into the place where they can know God as Father and He will become the Father in reality. Let God become your Father in reality. Then you will not have situations where people are actually plundering their own nations. No father ever steals from his own house. Leaders that have been stealing from their nations will soon become a thing of the past if we get it right in 2017 because it is a change of season. It is a year that is shifting everything into a place where God now will begin to take His rightful place. The Fatherhood of God will become a reality even in terms of the way He will begin to raise true leaders within the heart of fathers and mothers. Then Malachi 4:2-6 will become a reality in the next 3 to 5 years. It is a three (3) year minimum development plan and a five year [maximum] development plan. Nations will literally begin to change places. That is because the Father is coming back for His estate. As many of His children as are ready to become sons, He is going to begin to hand over portions of the estate to them. That will become a reality. There are seven critical relationships: 1. The relationship with the Father 2. The relationship with the Son 3. The relationship with the Holy Spirit 4. The relationship with life (That has to do with the originality of personality, especially dealing with spirit, soul and body.) 5. The relationship with the family 6. Knowing how to relate to the rest of the society (The kinds of principles, philosophies, tenets, practices that you need to be able to make it well with the rest of the society.) 7. The relationship with the rest of creation (Creation has been waiting for the manifestation of the sons of God.) 2017 will become the time when quite a number all over the world that will be used of God. That will be ready to build God s inheritance in the nations. When it comes to the relationship with the Son you will now become somebody that can ask for nations for your inheritance and the ends [of the earth] for your possession. Psalm 2:7&8. 2

3 The Bible says, Ask of me and I will give you the nations. It says first of all, I will declare this decree: The Lord has said to Me, You are My Son. Today I have begotten You. Ask of Me, and I will give You the nations for Your inheritance, and the ends of the earth for Your possession. Until you become a son you are not qualified to ask for nations. Meaning once you become a son He knows you will build up the nations and you will build up the ends of the earth so He will give you the nations for your inheritance and the ends of the earth as your possession. So the days of rejoicing over little, little possessions are over. You are going to now ask for nations. Now begin to receive the ability, the anointing to take nations in the name of the Lord Jesus. Receive the grace to take nations. Receive the anointing to take nations. Receive the impartation to take nations in the name of the Lord Jesus. I declare from this day everything that is necessary for the ends of the earth to be released to you is released right now. Let your life become one of the best expressions of God that the ends of the earth can be given to you for your possession. That you will not be satisfied any longer with anything that is less than God s original for you in the name of the Lord Jesus. Whatever is currently putting you under is now judged in the name of the Lord Jesus. We subdue it by the power that is vested in the name and the blood of Jesus. Let God arise right now and let his enemies be scattered. Let God arise and let His foes flee before Him. As smoke that is driven before the wind we declare them blown away. As wax that melts before the fire so let the wicked perish in the presence of God in the name of the Lord Jesus. There will be reconnecting in terms of your relationship with the Son so that He can help you to know what it is to be a son of God, whether you are a male or female. The nature of the Lord Jesus Christ will be released into expression since you are his body. One of things, for example, will have to do with humility of heart. We know from Matthew 11:28 & 29: Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. You are supposed to learn the humility of heart, the humility that exalts. The enemy will end up with the Father slapping the enemy through you. Psalm 3:7 says: Arise, O Lord; Save me, O my God! For You have struck all my enemies on the cheekbone; You have broken the teeth of the ungodly. [This is] the kind of slap that will actually knock out a few teeth. 3

4 When I talked about resurrection of disciplines and even the fact that there are things that might have died that He will resurrect. While I was waiting on Him, He gave me a song. It ends with right now, right now. One of the things that will be very important for 2017 is excellence. The song is a warfare song meant for The song will be sung on January 8, Sonship will cause you to reconnect to your position in God [so that] you can have your enemies subdued. Psalm 110:1says: Sit down at My right hand until I make thy enemies thy footstool. Who was He speaking to? He was speaking to the Son. So when you reconnect in terms of your relationship with the Son you will learn that. You will learn servant-hood. You will learn service. You will learn commitment. You will learn obedience. Reconnecting with the Son, He will teach you how to do everything in step with the Spirit. That is Galatians 5:25: If we live in the Spirit, let us walk in the Spirit. Jesus says I do nothing of my own, but the Father Himself who sent me has given Me a commandment as to what to say and what to do. John 12:49. That is how it was with Jesus. It means you will only speak what the Father wants you to speak and how He wants you to speak. According to 1 Corinthians 1:30: But by His doing you are in Christ Jesus, who became to us wisdom from God, and righteousness and sanctification, and redemption. When it comes to relationship with the Son, you will end up with wisdom. You need wisdom because for 2017 because a lot of things are going to come. It will be one of the fastest years you have lived. That is why you will need wisdom to build. Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: but with all your getting get understanding. Proverbs 4:7. So a relationship with the Son will help you to have wisdom. According to Proverbs 24:3 &4 it says: By wisdom a house is built, and by understanding it is established; and by knowledge the rooms are filled with all precious and pleasant riches. The wisdom to build will be your portion. The understanding for establishment is released into your life. The revelation knowledge necessary for choice treasures to flow in your direction we release to you right now in the name of the Lord Jesus. May God activate every deposit of wisdom that has been lying dormant inside you. May God activate every deposit of understanding that has been lying dormant inside you. May God activate every deposit of revelation knowledge that has been lying dormant inside you, in the name of the Lord Jesus. May God cause you to come to the place where you begin to express the wisdom of God. The wisdom that can neither be resisted or contradicted in the name of the Lord Jesus. 4

5 Luke 21:15 says: I will give you words and wisdom that none of your adversaries will be able to resist or contradict. May God give you that kind of wisdom that when you enter a place where people have already made up their minds that this time they are going to be floored you. This time they are going to be embarrassed by you. You will end up with such wisdom coming forth out of your mouth that they will be dumbfounded in the name of the Lord Jesus. Out of your belly shall flow rivers of wisdom, rivers of understanding, rivers of counsel, rivers of revelation knowledge, rivers of might, rivers of staying power, rivers of such fear of the Lord that God will cause you to always have an overcoming power and edge over the people that come against you in the name of the Lord Jesus. May God in your life be expanded to a point that you will almost disappear into oblivion because people don t see you anymore but [they see] the God in you. Let God arise now inside you and let wisdom take over. Let wisdom over from wherever you have made foolish decisions. God is going to cause you to begin to recover grounds that you had lost in the past. God is about to use wisdom to recover. Raise your right hand and say: I receive the wisdom to recover all lost grounds by the nature of the Son, Jesus Christ, by the nature of the Lamb of God, by the nature of the Messiah Yeshua, in the name of the Lord Jesus. Let the nature of God in you, let the nature of the Son in you, let the nature of the Lamb in you, let the nature of the conqueror in you, let the nature of the more than conqueror in you that is supposed to be released into manifestation be released right now. This is going to cause you to enter another level of operation. From now, even the earth will start yielding to you. The wind will begin to yield to you. The sun, the moon, the stars will begin to yield to you. Every part of creation will begin to cooperate with God s purpose in your life. That is what we just said now by activating the things we just activated with the nature of the Lamb. It means you will end up with perfect vision and perfect power is the year of maturity. May the maturity of sonship be released. May the ability to take responsibility for even your own failures be released. Once you take responsibility, then you take responsibility to put things right. Even for Nigeria, do not be surprised if by the end of the first six months some mighty trees would have fallen unless they repent. I am praying that if it be possible, they should repent. If they do not repent, do not be surprised because He told me that Proverbs 29:1 will become a reality in their lives. [Proverbs 29:1 says] He who is often rebuked, and hardens his neck, will suddenly be destroyed, and that without remedy. That is what is going to happen for some people. That is why 5

6 it is important for those who are from Nigeria, to warn the people concerning Southern Kaduna and the things that they are doing. If you are in Abuja, you need to warn the people there. If certain things are not righted there are some things that could go wrong with certain people. When it comes to the aspect of sonship, you will take responsibility for nations. It is the year to reconnect in terms of your relationship with the Holy Spirit. It is the year that you should make sure that you understand the Holy Spirit more than ever before. In terms of the person of the Holy Spirit, the manifestations of the Holy Spirit, the works of the Holy Spirit, the ministry of the Holy Spirit. When it comes to the ministry of the Holy Spirit, He could come with all the emblems including the aspect of the seven-fold Spirit of God. In terms of relationship with the Holy Spirit you should get to the place where you are consistently communing with the Holy Spirit. [You should get to] the Koinonia (Greek word means communion) with the Holy Spirit and transportation to the same realm with the Holy Spirit. You should come to the place where you actually hold discussions with the Holy Spirit. It is that important. This is the season of elevation. God is going to elevate as many as are going to keep in step with the Holy Spirit. You would be shocked at the number of people God would have raised to that level. They will hardly be able to recognize themselves. It will also be the season of demotion for a lot of people that are not ready to acknowledge the work of the Holy Spirit. Even for the nations, the things that are going wrong it is because they have not acknowledged God as Father. Even the peace process in Israel will not succeed until we take God s Word and begin to go God s way and begin to acknowledge His Lordship. Talking about your relationship with the Holy Spirit the first thing is the person of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit as the comforter The Holy Spirit as the oil of joy as the wind, the fire, the seven flames. That is what you are supposed to be activating. It is the year of reconnection of relationships with the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. Reconnecting with the Holy Spirit will include the aspect of reconnecting with His person, His nature, His character. It is the same thing with the Father and the Son. This is something that will help you now to really walk with God. There are some of you that do not understand when God is speaking. You are going to hear God clearly. This is the season. This time expect to hear from Him. 6

7 When you hear, start moving. He will make sure that no other person will speak to you because the voice of a stranger you will not follow. There will be divinely inspired ideas that will come. The minimum number of streams of income people should have is 7 streams of income. Ecclesiastes 11. This will be the year that God will show you some things that will make the 7 streams of income just the beginning point for those of you that will take Him seriously. Promptness of obedience will be critical. You should not grieve the Holy Spirit. God wants to reconnect with other aspects that will give you a fuller life. Prayer I declare from this day that there will be a greater revelation of the Holy Spirit in your life. (Lay a hand on your chest.) Holy Spirit I receive a reconnection with you right now. I use this part of my body as a point of contact for the core of my personality, my heart. I ask right now that there will be an activation of my heart and the forces of my heart to connect with you because the love of God is spread abroad richly in my heart by you. So Holy Spirit take my heart now and turn it the way the Father wants it, in the name of the Lord Jesus. From this day my heart will be set on the heart of God. I will seek God with all my heart, in the name of the Lord Jesus. I love the Lord with all my heart, with all my soul, with all my strength, with all my mind by your help. Holy Spirit from this day, I receive the nature of the wind activated right now. I am born of the Spirit in line with John 3:8, whatsoever is born of you will be like the wind. The wind blows wherever it wants to go. No one knows where it is coming from nor where it is going. We only hear and feel the effect. So is everyone that is born of the Spirit. So the nature of the wind in me I activate for 2017 in the name of the Lord Jesus. I will go wherever God wants me to go. People might not be able to figure me out in the name of the Lord Jesus. They will feel the effect of the work of God in and through my life. I declare from this day, the oil of joy is released into my life, is released through my life into the nations: into the nation of Ghana; into the nation of Nigeria; into the nation of South Africa; in the name of the Lord Jesus. I activate right now the nature of the dove, in the name of the Lord Jesus. I activate the nature of the flame of fire, in the name of the Lord Jesus. I activate every nature of the seven-fold Spirits of God, the nature of covenant Spirit. The Spirit of the covenant, the Spirit of wisdom, the Spirit of understanding, the Spirit of counsel, the Spirit of might, the Spirit of revelation knowledge, the Spirit of the fear of the Lord, I activate right now. Begin to manifest through me. I declare I shall express that in the name of the Lord Jesus. Everything I have learnt over the years concerning the Holy Spirit that has been lying dormant, that has not been put to work, I activate it right now. Come alive right now for expression and manifestation. I declare by the word of the Lord everything is aggregated now everything is compounded right now for expression and manifestation. I release 7

8 that now. I am launched into my new level of operation in the name of the Lord Jesus by the power of the Holy Spirit, by the work of the Holy Spirit, by the ministry of the Holy Spirit in the name of the Lord Jesus. Amen. Next we look at reconnection with life and originality of personality. This is the aspect of Luke 10:25-28 finally coming to expression and manifestation. It says there that Jesus asked the young man, How do you read the law? What does it say? Then the young man answered and in verse 28 Jesus told the young man that if he did what he just said he would live life to the full. What was it that the young man said? He said, You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your strength, and with all your mind, and your neighbor as yourself. When you reconnect with life you will love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your strength, and with all your mind, and your neighbor as yourself. This is talking about purpose. Let God help you to discover the original purpose for which He brought you on to the face of the earth. It is that which will make you decide like Daniel in Babylon to say, I will not partake of anything that will contaminate me because I have purpose in my heart. It will cause you to be like David who will be after God s own heart. Acts 13:22. When you discover purpose you will love the Lord your God with all your heart. How do I love the Lord? By discovering the purpose for which He brought me on the face of this earth. If I say, I love you and you have sent me to do something If I do not do what you have sent me to do then I do not really love you. If I fulfill the purpose for which you sent me then I have shown that I love you with all my heart. The second one is with all my soul. That is the aspect of originality of personality. The soul has to do with your uniqueness your heart, your mind, your will, your emotions, your intellect, your conscience. You are not supposed to throw away your originality, your uniqueness. Let that uniqueness come forth in Let it be released into full expression. Let the reality of your life being unique be released into manifestation. May everybody begin to discover their uniqueness and express it as worship unto the most high God in the name of the Lord Jesus. God wants you to love Him with all your strength hard work. Discover the place of hard work. Finally, love Him with all your mind. May God, who has begun a good work in your life bring it to a perfect conclusion. May God bring you to the place where, indeed, you will become one of the best expressions of God in May God bring you to the place where you will become one of 8

9 the most responsible people in May God bring you to the place where you will become who a good example of what it means to love the Lord your God. In the name that is above all names, Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. The next Section was the welcoming of the Ambassador of Israel to Ghana. He and his family attended the service on the last night of Hanukkah. Dr. Bako explained that Isaiah 19:19-25 was being enacted on a higher level today in this assembly. He noted that there were people from Lebanon in the assembly. The session began with the Ambassador s wife explaining the significance of the Hanukah celebration. The candles were lit by the Ambassador, Dr. Bako, a gentleman from Lebanon, representatives from Nigeria, Kenya, South Africa, the Ambassador s wife, the Ambassador s two children lit one candle, and two children from Ghana lit the other candle. The session ended with Dr. Bako praying for Israel. He noted that whoever possesses the gates possesses anything that you are trying to possess. He looked at Ezekiel 26:1-3, which says: In the eleventh month of the twelfth year, on the first day of the month, the word of the LORD came to me: Son of man, because Tyre has said of Jerusalem, Aha! The gate to the nations is broken, and its doors have swung open to me; now that she lies in ruins I will prosper, therefore this is what the Sovereign LORD says: I am against you, Tyre, and I will bring many nations against you, like the sea casting up its waves. Verse 2 clearly says Jerusalem is the gate to the nations. That is why they want Jerusalem destroyed! It is not about land it is about a particular altar. The UN resolution 2334 Look at Matthew 23:34 & 35: Therefore I am sending you prophets and sages and teachers. Some of them you will kill and crucify; others you will flog in your synagogues and pursue from town to town. And so upon you will come all the righteous blood that has been shed on earth, from the blood of righteous Abel to the blood of Zechariah son of Berekiah, whom you murdered between the temple and the altar. This is what they are trying to push so that they can now increase the violence in the nations. God will delay it a bit. It might still come because of some things in Daniel 11:7: One from her family line will arise to take her place. He will attack the forces of the king of the North and enter his fortress; he will fight agains them and be victorious. Dr. Bako prayed that God s counsel over Jerusalem and over Israel would stand. The second part of 9

10 the prayer was that God would give the Israel and the Jews His own strategy. Pray that God would give the Arabs His strategy. According to Isaiah 19:19-25, the reason why you see these three being persecuted the Jews, the Africans and the Assyrians amongst the Arabs is because they are supposed to be a blessing in the earth. There is a fight because if the three come together blessing will be upon the earth. The devil does not want the blessing. This is what the Dragon is fighting. That is why you will continue with the peace process but any way other than the way of God will not succeed. The congregation prayed the two prayer points: 1. Pray that God s counsel over Jerusalem and over Israel would stand. No other counsel will stand. Pray that the counsel of man will not stand. 2. Pray that God would give Israel and the Jews His own strategy. Pray that God would give the Arabs His own strategy. Any queries? Would you like to partner with GAPNET?
