All Things New: 21 Day Devotionalഉദാഹരണം

Operating in God’s Power

Most electronic devices today require a certain voltage and even the correct cable head to charge! Try charging an iPhone with a micro USB cable or an imitation cable that cannot give enough power. You are likely to get an error message saying, “Connected charger incompatible with this phone”, or “This accessory may not be supported”.

Similarly, we cannot operate fully in the gifts and power that comes with the Holy Spirit if we are not plugged in or connected with our Source! God has given us many ways to stay connected with Him --- praying, reading His Word, waiting on Him, etc. 

We need to realise that it is in the going forth in His name to be His witnesses that we can see His power demonstrated. God’s anointing on us, is to be utilised in the neighbourhoods and in the communities, where needs are abundantly present.

Jesus used His anointing as He went about in His community to do good works, as Acts 10:38 tells us: “And you know that God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power. Then Jesus went around doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with him.”

As children of God, we need to proclaim and declare His Word with faith that His Word is able to do what it says. As we declare God’s word boldly over obstacles, we can expect God to confirm His Word with signs and wonders. As we lay hands on the sick, let us do so believing that the sick will recover. 

God wants to demonstrate this love and power to this world through His church. Let us arise and go in His name and authority to do the impossible - for with God, all things are possible.

Reflection

What are some things God wants to do supernaturally through you that you are trying to do in your own strength?

What are some ways you can minister to the needs of your community and share the good news in your neighbourhood?

Prayer

Holy Spirit, I ask today for a new level of boldness and faith. Give me the courage and desire to step out in faith to operate in the gift of healing, the gift of faith, and the gift of the working of miracles.
