End Times Witnessing: He said: “Ephphatha,” which means, “Be opened!”

The watchman heard this word today “Ephphatha!” He heard in his spirit that there are many today that need to hear this message. When he read this good news he proclaimed the words to those rows and rows of spiritually deaf people in the churches.

The Lord Jesus says, “Be opened!’ You can hear! Take authority of the Son of God, in the mighty name of Jesus, just bind and cast out the spirit of deafness in your soul. Then you can hear what the preacher is actually preaching. You will hear and discern whether he is preaching God’s words that give life to you or dead words from the flesh and the devil (see the evil spirits lurking behind the pulpit, or worse, through the eyes of the preacher).

Not only that, the good news (or bad news for some) is also for the dumb (preacher). “Be opened!” Henceforth you will only speak the oracles of God and preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ. If you speak anything else the spiritually woken congregation will smell the foul smell from your mouth. They will see the evil spirits or your own flesh oozing out from every pore.

These are very strong words. The watchman shuddered at his prayer. But time is short and he really needs to listen and obey the Lord. The blindness and deafness to the spiritual realm make Christians into sitting ducks while the enemy comes in to steal, kill and destroy. Lately many more had perished in intensity and quantity. So the message is a good news for those who want to live in the kingdom of God!

Wake up, O watchmen, watch and pray as the faithful servants of Jesus, our God, our Lord, our Savior, our Master.

Mark 7:31-37

Jesus Heals a Deaf Man

31 Jesus left Tyre and went up to Sidon before going back to the Sea of Galilee and the region of the Ten Towns. 32A deaf man with a speech impediment was brought to him, and the people begged Jesus to lay his hands on the man to heal him.

33 Jesus led him away from the crowd so they could be alone. He put his fingers into the man’s ears. Then, spitting on his own fingers, he touched the man’s tongue. 34 Looking up to heaven, he sighed and said, “Ephphatha,” which means, “Be opened!” 35Instantly the man could hear perfectly, and his tongue was freed so he could speak plainly!

36 Jesus told the crowd not to tell anyone, but the more he told them not to, the more they spread the news. 37 They were completely amazed and said again and again, “Everything he does is wonderful. He even makes the deaf to hear and gives speech to those who cannot speak.”
