PROCLAMATION

TE WHARE MĀTĀMUATANGA O IO
The Kingdom House of IO

A PROCLAMATION TO THE WORLD
The First Assembly of the Holy Triune Spirit of IO Supreme
[YAHŪAH ALAHYM] ( 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 𐤀𐤋𐤄𐤉𐤌 ) [YAHŪSHA] & [RŪACH]

IN PERPETUITY

WE, THE FIRST ASSEMBLY of the Holy Triune Spirit of The Kingdom of IO, solemnly proclaim that We, God’s Architects have returned in the flesh, having been given divine right and authority to implement God’s plan for the eternal destiny of His children around the world, in this time, right now, now space. The ones that stand before you have come in the form of the divine masculine and divine feminine, brought forward by spirit, possessed in the beginning of God’s ways, before his works of old.
SCRIPTURE WITNESS:

Mishlei (Proverbs) 8:22-23 – “YAHŪAH possessed me in the beginning of his way, before his works of old. I was set up from everlasting, from the beginning, or ever the earth was.”
Yochanon (John) 1:1-3 – “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with Elohiym, and the Word was Elohiym. The same was in the beginning with Elohiym. All things were made by him; and without him was not anything made that was made.”
Yesha’yahu (Isaiah) 46:10 – “Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure.”

ALL INDIVIDUALS it is high tidings for truth and wisdom, for we speak to you of excellent things. The opening of our lips shall be right things. You who are us, we are the messengers, the Guardians of Divinity, the ones to carry the ‘Kai whatu’ through [seed of the stone, bearers of sacred knowledge from the realms of the spiritual dimensions], brought forward in this time, the Seal of Covenant from ‘IO Matua’ anointed and validated. What we share with you, is direct from IO Matua Te Runga Rawa, Father Most High, ‘God’ Almighty.
SCRIPTURE WITNESS:

Mishlei (Proverbs) 8:6-7 – “Hear; for I will speak of excellent things; and the opening of my lips shall be right things. For my mouth shall speak truth; and wickedness is an abomination to my lips.”
Mattithyahu (Matthew) 5:14 – “Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hid.”
Tehilliym (Psalms) 25:14 – “The secret of YAHŪAH is with them that fear him; and he will show them his covenant.”

IN THE SPIRITUAL REALM spirit sons and daughters, we are a free-peoples, Sovereign Heirs with ultimate authority and higher LORES jus congens, soul reign, above any parliament or government. No longer do we pay homage to men and womb-men bound by their own acts. We are the children of God, with our sovereignty etched in stone, memorialized entirely, exclusively and permanently. Man’s Laws are not applicable to us or our lands.
SCRIPTURE WITNESS:

Galatiym (Galatians) 5:1 – “Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Mashiach has made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.”
Kepha Ri’shon (1 Peter) 2:9 – “But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should show forth the praises of him who has called you out of darkness into his marvellous light.”
Tehilliym (Psalms) 119:45 – “And I will walk at liberty: for I seek your precepts.”

OUR FIRST COMMANDMENT then one of them, which was a Lawyer, asked him a question, tempting him, and saying, Master, which is the great commandment in the Law? Jesus said unto him, "Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind." This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. On these two commandments hang all the Law and the prophets. Matthew 22:35-40 King James Version (KJV). “That you do no harm to your fellow man/womb man or their property”.
SCRIPTURE WITNESS:

Devariym (Deuteronomy) 6:5 – “And you shall love YAHŪAH Elohayka with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your might.”
Vayiqra (Leviticus) 19:18 – “You shall not avenge, nor bear any grudge against the children of your people, but you shall love your neighbour as yourself: I am YAHŪAH .”
Yochanon Ri’shon (1 John) 4:20-21 – “If a man say, I love Elohiym, and hates his brother, he is a liar: for he that loves not his brother whom he has seen, how can he love Elohiym whom he has not seen? And this commandment have we from him, That he who loves Elohiym love his brother also.”

THE CALLING we have called on all ancestors reincarnated to stand; we have called on our beloved peoples, we have called on our elite warriors; every church; every grouping; every city; every town, every tribe, we have called on the indigenous tribes and political leaders of the world; and we have called on everyone including you. We are here to decree a release of a new mantle for a new day; set things anew and create things aright; to overhaul the belief systems; and to set in order that which belongs to heaven and that which belongs to the earth.
SCRIPTURE WITNESS:

Yesha’yahu (Isaiah) 61:1 – “The RUACH ADONAI YAHŪAH is upon me; because YAHŪAH has anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound.”
Qorintiym Sheniy (2 Corinthians) 5:20 – “Now then we are ambassadors for Mashiach, as though Elohiym did beseech you by us: we pray you in Mashiach’s stead, be reconciled to Elohiym.”
Chazon (Revelation) 21:5 – “And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful.”

WE DECLARE our peoples are mighty. Our ancestors live inside of us for our hearts are strong, filled with love and truly humble. We know who we are. There is a great authority within us that will release heaven and cast down those that continue to resist us.
SCRIPTURE WITNESS:

Devariym (Deuteronomy) 20:4 – “For YAHŪAH Elohaykem is he that goes with you, to fight for you against your enemies, to save you.”
Romaiym (Romans) 8:37 – “Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.”
Tehilliym (Psalms) 44:5 – “Through you will we push down our enemies: through your name will we tread them under that rise up against us.”

THE DIVINE DESIGN we call to the woman and sons of man to hear our instructions, and be wise. Blessed are those that hear us as we lead the way of righteousness in the midst of the paths of judgement, forbearance, patience, non-resistance, a quality of moral right. We, the Guardians Of Divinity have returned to ensure that our peoples have their freedom and we will move mountains like Maui moved the sun, to make sure that they have it. We are not here to take away anyone's rights, but merely affirm them through independence and consciousness. Our men are to preside over their families and protect our womb-men that will be leading the way in these new times of change. Our mothers are primarily responsible for the nurturing of their children and mother earth. Our elderly is our full responsibility, in sickness and in health.
SCRIPTURE WITNESS:

Mishlei (Proverbs) 8:32-33 – “Now therefore hearken unto me, O ye children: for blessed are they that guard my ways. Hear instruction, and be wise, and refuse it not.”
Eph’siym (Ephesians) 5:25,28 – “Husbands, love your wives, even as Mashiach also loved the assembly, and gave himself for it... So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loves his wife loves himself.”
Shemoth (Exodus) 20:12 – “Honour your father and your mother: that your days may be long upon the land which YAHŪAH Elohayka gives you.”

WE WARN that individuals and agents who violate the covenants of God and God’s children; who abuse God’s offspring and mother earth; or who fail to fulfil family responsibilities will one day stand accountable before God. Should you ignore our warning, we shall send a storm that will sweep away that which does not own His name and that which does not pursue His Spirit, shall your destiny be set.
SCRIPTURE WITNESS:

Galatiym (Galatians) 6:7 – “Be not deceived; Elohiym is not mocked: for whatsoever a man sows, that shall he also reap.”
Yesha’yahu (Isaiah) 13:11 – “And I will punish the world for their evil, and the wicked for their iniquity; and I will cause the arrogancy of the proud to cease, and will lay low the haughtiness of the terrible.”
Chazon (Revelation) 11:18 – “And the nations were angry, and your wrath is come, and the time of the dead, that they should be judged, and that you should give reward unto your servants the prophets, and to the qodeshiym, and them that fear your name, small and great; and should destroy them which destroy the earth.”

SCRIPTURE WITNESS:

Ethics

Conflict of interest

SCRIPTURAL WITNESS:

MATTITHYAHU (Matthew) 6:24 — No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. You cannot serve Yahuah and mammon.

We always try to meet our clients' contractual requirements, and particularly for situations where an external funding provider requires more official parameters and controls.

Fees
Our fees are always competitive for what we provide, which is high quality, taiLOREd, specialised service. As such we do not generally offer arbitrary discounts; generally a reduction in price is only enabled by reducing the level or extent of services to be delivered. That said, we always try to propose solutions, which accommodate our clients' available budgets and time-scales. Wherever possible we agree our fees and basis of charges clearly in advance, so that we and our clients can plan reliably for what lies ahead, and how it is to be achieved and financially justified.

We aim to be as flexible as possible in the way that our services are charged.

We make no attempt to charge interest on late payments, so we expect payments to be made when agreed. Our terms are generally net monthly in arrears.
SCRIPTURAL WITNESS:
