O God, thou art my God; early will I seek thee: my soul thirsteth for thee, my flesh longeth for thee in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is;
To see thy power and thy glory, so as I have seen thee in the sanctuary.….( Psalms 63: 1-3)
There is nothing of value is ever free. In elementary science, power is simply defined as the ability to do wok. As a child of God, power is your inheritance. I mean the invincible power of god! Power is a spiritual virtue of inestimable value.
You need this power to live in this wicked, wild and hostile world. Note that the devil has no respect for your title, status, position, academic degree, size and influence in the society. The only thing the devil respects is the power of God! That is why God has made his power available to his people.
Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you. (Luke 10:19)
It is impossible to triumph in the affairs of life without power, when the power of God is in place, you are in charge! When you are truly in power, you are enthroned for authority! This is the power era of the church.
You are born of power; you can’t afford to die as a weakling! It’s time to walk IN POWER!
DO YOU HAVE AN IRRESTIBLE APPETITE FOR POWER?
Do you want to be enthroned for authority? Do you want to be a devil’s tormentor and destroyer? Then read on
Nothing of value is ever free. Power is a spiritual virtue of inestimable value. Salvation has made us to be peculiar people.
But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should show forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvelous light: (1st Peter 2:9).
Same salvation cost God the life of his only begotten son, Jesus. Truly, nothing of value is ever free. Everything of value carries a definite cost.
When you are truly empowered, you are enthroned to authority. Every truth revealed, delivers at a cost.
Buy the truth, and sell it not; also wisdom, and instruction, and understanding. (Proverbs 23:23).
That you have found what you are looking for in a shopping mall doesn’t make it yours. You have to pay for it before it becomes yours.
WHAT DOES IT COST TO BE EMPOWERED?
Obedience of faith is your purchasing power for any revealed treasure in the word.
Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto treasure hid in a field; the which when a man hath found, he hideth, and for joy thereof goeth and selleth all that he hath, and buyeth that field. (Mathew 13:44).
You don’t confess power, you acquire it.
The master key to empowerment is CONSECRATION. If the foundation be destroyed, what can the righteous do?
If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do? (Psalm 11:3).
So, sanctification is what enhances your worth in the kingdom. That is why the bible says:
The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding. (Proverbs 9:10).
So, your level of consecration is what defines the level of unction you enjoy. Your level of anointing is a function of your level of consecration. Therefore, the capital cost for the empowerment is consecration.
Until you turn, it’s you r turn to be empowered. There are certain things you must turn from, before it becomes your turn. God will not put new wine into old bottles. If you wan t new wine, renew your bottles.
And no man putteth new wine into old bottles; else the new wine will burst the bottles, and be spilled, and the bottles shall perish.
But new wine must be put into new bottles; and both are preserved. (Luke 5:37-38).
Until your vessel is renewed you are not entitle to the wine. While no one is perfect except God, everybody must be consciously pressing towards perfection.
Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, (Philippians 3:13-14).
You must press for something to drop off you! Whatever that can stop your empowerment is the devil’s interest. Therefore, you are to press for perfection.
I will be continuing this topic next time on WHAT ARE THE KEYS TOWARDS PERFECTION? Don’t miss out. TILL THEN, REMAIN BLESSED IN THE WORD OF GOD.
