King Hezekiah got the authority to destroy the foreign altars that his father erected, and restored the temple, when he became king. We as Christians, also has a similar authority spiritually, because we are seated with Christ in heavenly places and by grace received authority to reign in life with Jesus Christ, as a royal priesthood.

Marelize explains the living out of this authority through the life of Jeremiah, the kingly authority that he had over kingdoms, and the strategy with which he prayed in the midst of a challenging time. She also explains the Kingly Authority Anointing Oil, and the meaning of it through the ingredients in the oil – the Balm of Gilead, the Spikenard and the Juniper Essential Oils.

2 Chron.29 Rom.5:17 Ps.2:8 Jer.1:4-10 Is.9:2-5 Gen.49 Is.62:4-5 Hos.14:8 Jer.20 & 23

As Christians we should endeavor to be filled with the knowledge of God’s will, so that we may live a life worthy of Him and be pleasing to Him in every way. This includes the way in which we use anointing oil.

Marelize gives her testimony about her discovery of the place of fragrances in the Bible – like Noah’s sacrifice which was a sweet savour to God, the fragrant oils in the Holy Anointing Oil, the connection between the Bridegroom’s love and the fragrant plants in Song of Solomon, the aromatic substances mentioned with the Oil of Joy, and our prayers that are like incense before God’s throne. This led to her study of anointing oil in the Bible, the purposes for which it was used, the ingredients, the significance of olive oil used in anointing oil, the role of the Holy Spirit, and the right that New Testament Christians have as God’s royal priesthood to use anointing oil.

Col.1:9-10 2 Cor.2:15 Ex.28 & 30 Rev.5:8 & 8:3-4 Is.43:24 Lev.8:30 Lev.14:14-18 Zec.4 Luke 4 Acts 10:38 Is.10:27 Ps.45

When you think that you have nothing more to give, especially in this time of lockdown, His oil comes forth pouring out, so that you and others around you can be blessed.

The Lord often asks of us to live in the opposite spirit than what is going on around us, like when surrounded with fear, to live in faith while praising God, like king David did. God may also ask you, when things are tight financially, to live and to share in abundance, like the woman who anointed Jesus’ feet, who could have used ordinary olive oil, but instead anointed Him with the most costly nard oil. Another example is the widow who just had a jar of oil left, who followed the prophet’s word, and got as many jars as she could, and filled it. Her obedience gave God opportunity to have His oil pouring out in her jars, so that she not only got enough income from it to pay her debtors, but also could have enough, so her and her sons could make a living from it.

Something else that the Lord may ask of you, is to bring restoration to the land though prayer, or to pray for the area where you work. Marelize describes the process of bringing restoration to the land through repentance and anointing. She also shares how it happened, that IT IS TIME is having a special this month on the large bottles of anointing oil, calling the special ‘Oils Pouring Out’.

Psalm 3 2 Cor.12:9-10 2 Kings 4 Gen.28:18

Many of us are currently experiencing challenges and are being tested on levels that we haven’t had before. Marelize looks at Bible scriptures where the feeling of being surrounded by rolling waves, stormy waters, or deep waters and miry clay, are described – times in which God is surrounding us with His mercy, and with songs of salvation.

Ps.42:6-7 Ps.69:1-4,13-17,30 1Thess.5:18 Ps.32 Ps.93:3-4 Jam.1:1-6

As Christians we must learn how to fight the spiritual war, just like soldiers must learn how to fight in the physical war. Part of this, is to learn how and when God reveals Himself as the One who fights for us.

Marelize looks at times in the Bible when God revealed Himself as the Commander of the Heavenly Army, or as the Lord of hosts, or as Lord of Sabaoth. It was usually during big battles, like with Joshua at Jericho, or with the bursting forth of a new season, like with the young prophet Samuel, or when an evil leader’s reign had to end, like with king Ahab.

Prayer strategy is shared on how to work with the One who is fighting for us, to conquer when the battle is on, or to bring to an end the influence, injustice and corruption of an evil leader or ex-leader.

Jos.5&6 Gen.32 Hos.12:3-5 1 Kings 21-22 2 Thess.1:7-10 Jam.5:1-6 Ps.24

Marelize shares her story about when she had Covid 19, about the rotten smell that she had, and how the Lord used that to make her aware of His fragrance of life, and the awareness of life, versus smell of death, and the awareness of death in our present world. The experience and isolation of someone who tested positive for the virus, is compared to those who had leprosy in Bible times who also had to isolate. But the time frame in which we are, is not only about physical death, but death also on many other areas of life. The focus in this presentation is on death to hopes and aspirations, death to finances, death to certain relationships, as well as some guidelines on how to pray in this time.

Luke 17:12 Jer.20 Gen.9 Ps.127:3 Eph.4:3 Ps.133 Ps.35 Ps.6:45 John 10:10 Ps.23

When Jesus told His disciples about the troubled times awaiting the world before He returns to earth, He said to them that when the branch of the fig tree is tender and the leaves are appearing, that summer is upon them, and that the time of His coming is near.

Marelize explains the seasons of the fig tree, of when the branches are tender and the leaves are budding, which brings a greater understanding, of what Jesus meant.

The fig tree produces different types of figs during its different seasons. That sets it apart from other fruit trees. Then the passage in Song of Solomon, about the bridegroom calling his bride to arise, when the winter is gone and the green figs appears, becomes clear, as a call by Jesus as Bridegroom, for His Bride, to get ready.

Jesus also calls His disciples to prepare for His return. One of the ways in which we need to prepare, is to bear fruit, especially in this time of the Covid 19 Pandemic. An example of this, is the barren fig tree that Jesus encountered, in a time when He needed it, to bear fruit.

Mark 13:28 Song 2:10 Mark 11:13 Matt.7:16 John 15

Jesus once said that to love the Lord with all of your heart, your soul, your mind and your strength, and to love your neighbor as yourself, is what will cause you to truly live. Marelize shares what it means to love God in each of these areas, and how our love for God can grow, and can cause us to feel at peace in this time of fear, in the midst of the Corona Virus Pandemic. She also shares about Jesus’ restoration of Simon Peter’s love relationship with Him, after he had denied that he had known Jesus.

Luke 10:27 Deut.6:5 Lev.19:18 Zeph.3:17 Rev.12:11 Ps.18 John 21:15-19 John 14:15-21 1 John 4:7-20 Eph.3:16
