About Messiah Ministries

Jesus came to heal the brokenhearted and set the captives free (Isaiah 61; Luke 4). He is the same yesterday, today, and forever. Now, as the Father sent the Son, so the Son sends us in the power of the Holy Spirit (John 20). We are to be the body of Christ, filled with the Spirit of Christ, continuing the ministry of Christ to a broken, fallen, and hurting world.

“Messiah Ministries is a prayer ministry founded for inner healing, deliverance, and spiritual formation through sanctification. We minister in the diverse traditions of the Christian faith in America and abroad. We lead retreats, prayer revivals, teaching conferences, schools of spiritual ministry, and offer personal spiritual direction and prayer ministry. We are actively engaged in city-wide and regional prayer movements, bringing unity to the Body of Christ.”

Wounds of rejection, roots of bitterness, shadows of fear, walls of isolation, and shame of sin or abuse—the unhealed pain of life steals the blessings of abundant life Jesus makes available through the power of the Cross. They block us from intimacy with God, divide us from loving one another, and imprison us from living out our destiny in Christ. This is the ministry of spiritual transformation through "inner healing"—healing from the inside out. We need healing from our wounds and deliverance from our bondage. In this hour, our Father in Heaven is pouring out His Holy Spirit with great anointing and power to prepare the Bride and Body of Christ for His coming in glory--one day in the skies and every day in our lives (1 Thessalonians 4).

God will have a people on this earth, shining as light in the midst of the darkness, who display both His nature and His authority, emptied of themselves and "filled with all the fullness of God" (Ephesians 3). With Christ in us, the hope of glory, we will arise and shine for our light has come! (Isaiah 60) With the love of Christ flowing through us, the glory of the Lord will cover the earth as the waters cover the sea (Habakkuk 2).

The vision and calling of Messiah Ministries is to do our part by the power of the Holy Spirit to cleanse, heal, equip, and empower the body of Christ to continue the ministry of Christ by “Preparing the Way of the Lord” and “Ministering the Healing Love of God.” This is the ministry of healing and deliverance—healing the broken and setting the captives free to be like Jesus—through Spirit-led prayer ministries of spiritual transformation and spiritual direction. If this is your heart's cry, contact us to see how we can come alongside you, your church or ministry in your quest to honor God, know your identity and fulfill your destiny.

God bless you!

Speaking Words from Faith - June 8, 2023

Morning by Morning, June 8 - Speaking Words from Faith

Good morning, Lord Jesus. I speak out Your name over my day and all I’ll face and all I’ll overcome by the power of Your grace. ...

“So Jesus answered and said to them, ‘Have faith in God. For assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be removed and be cast into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says. Therefore I say to you, whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them” (Mark 11:22-24).

These are Your Words. This is Your invitation -- to believe in faith, to pray in faith, to speak in faith, to receive in faith.

So deliver me from doubt. Break off my unbelief. Increase my faith (Luke 17:5; Mark 9:24). Don’t let any disappointments from past prayers define the limits of my faith for my present prayers.

“With God all things are possible” (Mark 10:27). And in Your own Words, “All things are possible to him who believes” (Mark 9:23).

Instead of coming up with bad theologies, empty philosophies based on arguments from silence in past experiences, or distorted interpretations of the Word of God to try to explain away any lack of my experience of the Truth of Your Words, I humble myself to ask You for the grace of obedience to obey the express command of Your Scripture: “Have faith in God.”

I can’t make that happen. “Apart from (You), I can do nothing” (John 15:5). But I praise God that I’m never apart from You. You’re always with me (Matthew 28:20). And You’re always reminding me by the moving of Your Spirit in my heart, “It is (our) Father’s good pleasure to give (us) the kingdom” (Luke 12:32).

So align my heart with Yours, my thoughts with Yours, my words with Yours. Put Your thoughts in my mind and Your desires in my heart so that that the words that come out of my spirit in prayer and my mouth in faith are expressions of Your heart and mind and will -- here on earth as it is in heaven, according to the will of God (Luke 11:2). That’s the kind of faith I want to have. That’s the kind of words I want to speak. In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.

Be encouraged today. In the love of Jesus, Tommy Hays

My friend, may your heart and your words be filled with faith, in Jesus' name. God bless you, my friend! And you have a great day!
