Today’s Living Word – Power

4–7 minutes

Our Lord Jesus Christ speaks prophecy: 

God is good always! Many say it, but not many really believe it. God causes the rain to fall on the just and the unjust alike. He gives life to all and His peace reigns upon the earth for all who will receive it. But what of darkness and evil? Does God promote the actions of good and evil alike? No, He does not! Many evils are laid at His feet because evil men are obeying evil spirits. The world has become a wilderness because mankind has chosen self over God and evil over good. Wake up oh man, and turn back to God. 

The reason for man’s creation is fellowship with our God. He is all love and life and goodness. Yet people are seduced by his fallen angel Lucifer who deceives the nations night and day. He leads men to serve him by every evil way. Men who could be living in peace and joy are tortured by mental illness and sorrow day by day. They are blaming the leaders in their communities, the economics and weather around the globe, when they should be laying the blame upon Satan and his evil spirits that cause the suffering. 

Who can find a righteous man to stand up for God? Who will rise up against the lies and speak truth? You are those who have been called to speak and serve. God has given each of us power and responsibility to stand against evil. What did I ask our Father for when I prayed? Wisdom, forgiveness for others, more opportunities to speak, the strength to obey and do his will. It is always God’s will to speak truth, healing and deliverance. You do not need to ask him for permission. Prayer is for building your relationship with our Father and each other, for thanksgiving and to request help to bring God’s promises to pass. As you ask in prayer, his word will come to you and you will release God’s power in my name. Deliverance from evil is available to all within the sound of your voice. Begin to command the devils to flee and the sick to be healed.

You have my spiritual strength and I have given you all authority to release power upon the earth. Pray for guidance and for God’s will and then move with confidence and faith. Command release for the captives from spirits of depression and addiction. Do not ask God why they are suffering, or how they became bound. It is our responsibility to set them free. Begin to rule and reign with me your Lord and Christ. We are about to take back the nations. Rise up my church and hear my call to victory. Follow my lead and walk with me into your futures of reigning in power and peace and in your position of royal priesthood. 

Today’s Written Word

Isaiah 5:20Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!

Luke 6:45 A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh.

III John 1:11 Beloved, follow not that which is evil, but that which is good. He that doeth good is of God: but he that doeth evil hath not seen God.

I Corinthians 1:9God is faithful, by whom ye were called unto the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord.

I John 1:3That which we have seen and heard declare we unto you, that ye also may have fellowship with us: and truly our fellowship is with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ.

Romans 15:19Through mighty signs and wonders, by the power of the Spirit of God; so that from Jerusalem, and round about unto Illyricum, I have fully preached the gospel of Christ.

Ephesians 6:10Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.

A Word of Encouragement

What power we have, and we know it! Christ has given us many encouragements of what to do and how to carry out God’s will by walking in His manifested power. Many people are being afflicted by evil men and those men are being afflicted by evil spirits. We have power and dominion over them. We can cast them out, stop their words and rebuke them from speaking lies and doctrines of devils. We are called to rule and reign in Christ. I Cor.4:8. We can answer the call of our Lord and rise up to lead, minister and release God’s deliverance and power to those who are crying out to Him. Here am I, send me.

An Action Item

Let’s get busy setting the captives free today. We can each ask God in prayer this morning “What can I do for you today”? Give me an assignment, and show me a soul who needs your power to be released in the name of Jesus Christ!

Victories and Blessings

Another awesome teaching Sunday night! L.J. taught on bringing our thoughts into subjection and claiming God’s peace. One of our faithful was released from an evil attack and the Kingdom of our Lord was expanded as the devil continues to loose territory. We do rule and reign as we claim victory in the spiritual competition. Resist the devil and he will flee.

Please share some of your victories, blessings and prayer requests so others can rejoice and believe with you.
