TOPIC FOR TODAY, THURSDAY 1:7:21: The power of Christian life
By Dr D.K Olukoya General Overseer MFM worldwide
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Psalms 26, Psalms 27, Psalms 28, Psalms 29, Psalms 30, Psalms 31
FIRE SCRIPTURE: Mark16:17-18
Memory verse: 1Cor.12:7
But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal.
Motivational Quote: Your Christian life is dead without power. Therefore, seek God’s face until He endues You with His power. You need it.
Prophetic Word: The Lord God shall empower you to do exploits in your Christian walk, in the name of Jesus.
Jesus, before His ascension, declared to His small group of followers on Mount Olives: “Ye shall receive power after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you; and ye shall be witnesses unto me…” (Acts 1:8).
When the Holy Ghost comes upon you, the power to do the will of God becomes available to you. The changes that God wants to effect in your life will easily be done. You can never be the same person with the natural tendencies and inclinations when the Holy Ghost takes over your life.
Paul declared in 1 Cor. 2:2, “For I determined not to know anything among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified.” As a Christian, people must see Christlike characteristics in you. This is the work of the Holy Ghost: He powers and steers the Christian to a fulfilled life.
The Holy Ghost also helps us to bear the fruit of love, joy, peace, longsuffering (patience), goodness, gentleness, faith, meekness and temperance. When the fruit is in you, your prayer life is effective; your study of the Bible is deep and your obedience level is high.
The Holy Ghost also empowers you to do exploits, to crush the enemies under you, to make the right choices, to operate like the wind, to spiritually discern correctly, to hear His voice clearly, to live as His witness and to know the signs of the times.
The power of the Holy Ghost, which is the power of the Christian life in you, will also help you to know the mind of God for your generation and the prevailing spirits influencing the mood and the mindset of the people around you.
In addition to the above, through the power of the Holy Ghost working in you, you will be able to cast out demons. You will be as bold as a lion that turns not for anyone.
Also, you can never be bewitched (Acts 8:9). Finally, you live to demonstrate the Spirit and the power of God! (1Cor.2:4). This was Paul’s boast.
Note that ‘spirit’ is spelt with a capital ‘S’. This refers to the Holy Spirit. Paul lived to demonstrate the power of the Holy Spirit. You, too, should: for the kingdom of God is not in words, but in power!
PRAYER POINTS:

In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, & by the power in the Blood of Jesus, in this year 2021, you will never be a victim to whatever calamity, affliction, or tragedies
