2006:
The Year of Kingdom Power, Authority and Victory
Two thousand and six was the year of taking over. What used to be the encampments of the enemy were conquered and won for the Almighty Father, our Lord Jesus Christ.
It was the year of creating estates across the nation; the year of extending the King's domains far and wide as the Father reigns through His Son.
It is the setting up of an empire, the establishment of a nation complete with laws written in the hearts and in the minds. A nation where the Father rules and reigns with His Appointed Son. A nation where hope and honor is restored. It is a land reclaimed. It is where the new world is born. 2006 witnessed the manifold manifestations of God's power as He restored His original purpose for man. It was a time of great rejoicing and victory for the light of His Kingdom Nation has outshined the darkness of this old fallen world. 2006 was the year of Kingdom power, authority and victory.
