Seeking God's Power to do great works

In Acts 2:3-4, the Bible describes how the Holy Spirit appeared to the disciples as cloven tongues of fire, empowering them to speak in other tongues as the Spirit gave them utterance.

The fire of the Holy Spirit is an immensely powerful force that longs to empower us to do mighty works. However, individuals must cultivate a deep longing in their hearts for the manifestation of God's glory, only then will they be filled with the power to serve God and make an impact in the world.

We must spend time in prayer and meditation on the word of God in fellowship with God for the Holy Ghost to be able to set us ablaze for effectiveness and fruitfulness in our calling. Those who neglect their altar, autacise themselves from the manifestation of the grace of God and the mighty working of the power of God in their lives and ministry. The more we burn ourselves in seeking God, the more God will use us to set others ablaze for His mission.

When the fire of God fills your heart, it will give you a purpose to fulfill and the unction to speak with authority. But this empowerment is directly tied to your response to the hunger for the glory that the Holy Ghost creates in your heart. If you are not on fire for God in private, you cannot be on fire for Him in public.

Your ministry before people reflects the temperature of your altar with God. So, give yourself completely to the craving of the Spirit of God within you for the great move of God in our nation or the world, and let God make you a burning fire for His use. Don't hold back, don't hesitate. Embrace the fire, and let it refine and prepare you, so that you may fulfill the purpose for which you were called.

God has ignited our hearts with a passion to serve Him and it is our responsibility now to create an environment where this fire can continually burn. Our significance in God's work is determined by the quality of our relationship with Him. We must never be content with the level of our spiritual growth and should relentlessly seek to deepen our connection with God.

Power of Persistence

Power of Persistence  And Gideon came to Jordan, and passed over, he, and the three hundred men that were with him, faint, yet pursuing them. Judges 8:4 Persistence is essential for pursuing a significant purpose and achieving a vision that seems beyond our strength. Despite their exhaustion, Gideon and his soldiers continued their pursuit of their enemies, demonstrating the power of a clear and compelling goal to inspire perseverance in fulfilling a dream. Persistence allows us to remain consistent and steadfast in our pursuits. Without a great vision, we may struggle to rise from complacency and actively seek God with the dedication needed for constant prayer, which builds a strong spirit, deepens our faith, enhances our understanding of the Word of God, and helps us grow in alignment with our vision.  God does not use casual seekers for the advancement of His kingdom; He relies on those who are consistent and committed. Persistence in prayer and faith is key to receiving an...

You are worthy O Lord..

You are worthy O Lord.. The twenty-four elders fall down before Him who sits on the throne and worship Him who lives forever and ever. They cast their crowns before the throne, saying, "You are worthy, O Lord, to receive glory, honour, and power; for You have created all things, and for Your pleasure, they are and were created." — Revelation 4:10-11 Even with the privilege of sitting around God's throne, these elders demonstrate a deep sense of humility before Him. When the living creatures give glory, honour, and thanks to God, the elders do not remain seated, proud of their crowns. Instead, they rise from their seats and fall down before God. In worship, they lay their crowns at His feet, proclaiming that He alone is worthy of glory, honour, and power. The crowned elders understand that there is only one King, and that King is God, deserving of all glory despite the honour they have been given. Like these elders, we must not allow the privileges, gifts, bles...

The Word became Answer

Image
The Word became Answer RSV, John 1:14: "And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, full of grace and truth; we have beheld his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father." The Word, or Logos, became human as God's response to our need for salvation, addressing all our spiritual needs and the limitations we face as humans. The written word, the scriptures, is also provided by God to meet our needs. However, many struggle to find answers to their challenges in the scriptures due to their lack of understanding of them. But those who genuinely seek truth from the scriptures and are willing to obey God's guidance will find that the scriptures are revealed to them, providing a word from God. Casual reading of the scriptures will not yield meaningful benefits. Our comprehension of the scriptures plays a significant role in how we apply them and the guidance we receive. Therefore, we must not only read the scriptures but also study them carefully to uncove...
