1 Corinthians 2:4
And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man's wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power:
We have to realize that the same power that rested upon the prophets, the power that led the children of Israel out of Egypt "bondage", the same power that parted the red sea, is the same fire that was inside of jeremiahs bones and is the same fire that now lives inside of us! We have the ability and the authority in the name of Jesus to do such signs and wonders that the world has yet to see. We have that authority in the name of Jesus, that MIGHTY name! That same power that raised Christ from the dead, lives inside of us! So, why arent we seeing this "power" in our life and also in the lives of other belivers? The scriptures say in Hosea 4:6 My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. I really think that we dont really realize the power that we have in Christ. The scriptures also say Mark 16:17
And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;. It almost seem like we might not really believe, because the scriptures say that these signs SHALL follow you if you do. Are you seeing salvation in the market place? Are you casting out devils at the mall? Trust me, there isnt a shortage of devils to be casted out. Are you healing the sick? Are tumors falling off of people when you lay hands on them in the power of the name of Jesus Christ? Odds are, these things arent happening in your life, but... they are not happening in mine as of now. But, I do believe that there is a genuine faith that we can posess in Christ. There is a way for us to walk in power and live a sin free life which exalts Christ. We dont have to keep on sinning. The key is walk in the power of the Holy Ghost which lives inside of you. Quit doubting God and what he is wanting to do in you and through you. What are you waiting for? You only get 1 life. You only get 1 chance to make things right with God. We have to lay down our lives for the sake of the Gospel! Oh, and lets stop making it so hard for people to get into the kingdom and recieve Christ. Lets learn from those who went on before us. Let us not get caught in up calling down strange fire. Let us not get caught up in movements that exalt you or an idea. The idea is Christ and Him Crucified! The fact of the matter is. We have to love God more that we love our own lives. Lets pray, even now, if this is your heart, for it is mine. I will not stop until Me and my family are walking in the book of Acts. I will never be happy. I will never be satisfied with 2nd best. Will you? Will you settle for second best? You are. Turn off you computer and hit your face. Ask God to use you to bring in the harvest of souls. There isnt a shortage of souls either. Matthew 9:37
Then he said to his disciples, "The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few. This isnt somthing far out of reach, the disciples laid down their lives to walk in this power and you are not just gonna get it on sunday morning? Your life... and nothing less. There are even men of God walking in this today! For example Smith Wigglesworth was walking in power and didnt compromise the truth of the gospel. David Hogan, a missionairy alive to is see many signs and wonders, the dead raised, devils fleeing, salvation to the masses!
Lets walk in power!
1 Corinthians 12:7
But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal.
