Get The #Power!
Beloved, to be a successful Christian/Minister
manifesting the power and gifts of God in your area of calling, or to
maintain your deliverance from afflictions, you must be endued with
Power that can only come from above (Acts 1:8). And it is important to
know about the power resources available to you by covenant promise so
that you can operate in them.
i have a compulsory assignment for the
readers of this book. It is very important you partake in it so that you
can move your ministry and your life to the next level! #God bless you!
Friend!
the bible says that man was made a Lord of the earth while Heaven is
mans abode Gen 1:28-30 Psalm 115:16. This transfer of power from God to
man is man’s Dominion of the earth.
To dominate is taken from the word DOMINION which means; To control, To rule, To govern, To put under subjection!.
The incentives available to man in this contract was #SUPERNATURAL WIDOM and UNBROKEN FELLOWSHIP. The #WISDOM
was exhibited in ADAM naming all the animals including the wild
animals without harm. Gen 2:19-20. The Fellowship gave him access to
unlimited heavenly resources which was to help in the administration of
the earth. All the #ANGELIC beings in heaven were at his disposal and command until he fell from this grace Gen 3:9-20
The
result of the fall in the garden was inferiority complex, fear of the
unknown and spiritual alienation from God and heavenly forces.
The
initial supernatural wisdom was displayed by God in some men(control
over wild beast without fear) i.e Noah in Gen 7:14 , Solomon in
2Chronicles 9:19.
Moses and Abraham also enjoyed direct fellowship with God in different dispensations.
How
does this apply to receiving spiritual power? Mark 16 verse 15-18
gives a scripture that showcases restoration of all the powers of the
dominion of ADAM to the regenerated man. However, most of the people
who this authority is bequeathed to, do not operate in power that is
already available. Why is this?
Firstly, if we examine deeply the
command in the above Scripture, we will see that we need the anointing
of the Holy Ghost in 3 key areas:
1 . To preach with conviction so that sinners are brought to repentance.,
2. To heal the sick
3. To cast out demons
Healing
the sick and casting out demons will help to preach with conviction so
that sinners are brought to repentance. This command is general, so an
average Christian should be able to fulfill this commission.
Why
then do people who are given this command find it hard to operate in it?
The answer is found in what was lost by the fall in the garden and the
consciousness of the teachings of Jesus Christ which I will like you to
read very attentively below.
There were basically 3 sins that was committed in the garden at the fall . They are:
LUST OF EYES Gen 3 vs 6 , 1 john 2 vs 15-17LUST OF THE FLESH Gen 3:vs 6, 1 john2 vs 15-17
PRIDE OF LIFE. Gen 3 vs 6, 1 john 2 vs 15-17
THE DOMINION LOST BY MAN AS A RESULT OF THIS SINS ARE RESTORED AT NEWBIRTH IN JESUS.
When
Adam dropped the Baton of Dominion, the law and prophets could not
handle it to perfection, JESUS PICKED THE BATON FOR ME AND YOU! And you
are licensed to operate like him! JOHN 14:12
In praying for the sick
for instance for healing, most people still manifest the sin that led
to the fall of our first parents and the fear and inferiority that
followed when they were driven out of the garden. You must be very
confident that the name of Jesus does not disappoint. If the sick is not
Healed by your prayer, you have not failed! Jesus have not failed! If
you feel you have failed, that is PRIDE OF LIFE. It MAY just means that
you need more information from the Holy SPIRIT.
As at the time you
lay hands on the sick to pray, you may not have received any direction
from the Holy Spirit, but as you persevere in the prayer, you are sure
to receive direction if your faith does not waver. The major problem in
this is that people want to see the healing manifesting in few seconds
and if it does not, they are disappointed and they stop because they
operated in PRIDE. We are not to feel disappointed if we do not see
instant healing because we are just SONS who are doing the biding of our
LORD. PRIDE exhibited at such times shows we are still in the state of
the fallen man.
There are several things that will determine if the
sick will be healed. Most times, you may need to work on the faith of
the sick to bring him to the level of believing, sometimes, you may
discover that an un -confessed sin can be a hindrance , you may also
discern and cast out demon before healing will take place e.t.c.
One
key thing is that you must be dead to personal or general opinion which
is PRIDE and you must not be driven by lust for gains.
There are
several healing ministration by Jesus in the scripture and they did not
follow the same pattern. In Mark 8:22, people brought a blind man to
Jesus and prescribed he be healed by being touched, but the Healing
process of this man was so elaborate that Jesus led him outside the
town and even instructed him not to come back to the town after the
healing.
A lot of times healing can be in an instant! But sometimes,
he bears long with us Luke 18:7b. why does he bear long? There are some
powers in heavenlies/ demons who might be doing some spiritual
negotiations i.e Mattew 8: 29, Mark 5 vs 1-15, or are asking questions
about the healing. SOME POWERS ASK WHO THE KING OF GLORY IS!!! (PSALM
24:10)
The most important thing we need to bear in mind when you are
confronted with a case where you need God to move is to BE CONSCIOUS OF
YOUR RESTORED DOMINION IN JESUS CHRIST.
The baptism of the Holy Spirit BRINGS THE TREE OF LIFE INSIDE OF YOU AND KEEPS THE FLAMING SWORD (GENESIS 3:24 )OUT OF YOU.
THE AUDACITY OF FAITH EXPLOIT HAS COME! YOU ARE NO LONGER IN THE STATE OF THE FALLEN MAN!
In
the gospel of Luke Chapter 4, the temptation of Jesus by the devil was
not in the physical presence of Lucifer the fallen being. It was one by
the activity of mind binding demons. These demons are very serious
ministerial hindrance to people who are being used by God. They speak
to your mind like your own thoughts or even speak with your mouth and
you will think they are your own thoughts . They did the same to Peter
the Apostle,( Mathew 16:22) so DO not think they can not do the same to
you!
These beings are sent to belittle your ministry by the enemy,
their primary function is to make you less than what God has prepared
you for! Remember you are the Royal priest of the most high! 1 Peter 2
:9.
