Topic: THE KEY TO DIVINE POWER

Memory Verse: Galatians 5:25 – If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.
Bible Reading: Acts 2:1-4

Message:

The power of God does not come cheap. I remember asking God to give me power to work miracles and He answered, “Start where Jesus started”. I was excited, thinking I would repeat Jesus’ first miracle, until the Lord pointed Matthew 4:2 out to me — where Jesus started with forty days of fasting and prayers. If you want power from God Almighty, you must be ready to conquer your flesh. When you are ruled by the Spirit, not the flesh, then God can trust you with power. If you can get addicted to fasting, prayer, studying the Bible and holiness, then you are a candidate that God can consider for the possession of divine power. When I talk about holiness and living above sin as one of my major secrets of power, some people think I am only being legalistic, but when you read Hebrews 1:9, you will see that you must love righteousness and hate iniquity for God to anoint you.

Apostle Paul said in 1 Corinthians 9:27 that he put his body under subjection. He said also that he fasted often (2 Corinthians 11:27). What was the result of all these? Acts 19:1 1-12 says that when demons saw his handkerchiefs, they ran; that is power. When I am fasting and emphasising holiness everyday, I know what I am doing. I am seeing the results in my life so I will not stop. Several years ago, the Full Gospel Businessmen’s Fellowship International invited me to preach on ‘The New Anointing’. By the time I had finished speaking, I had to sneak away into the car because everybody wanted to touch me. There was a man running after me with a handkerchief in his hand. Fortunately, he was able to reach the car and he rubbed his handkerchief on it before I drove off. Back at home, there was a little girl who was so demon-possessed that it took six men to hold her down. He arrived on the scene, touched the girl with the handkerchief and she became normal again.

If you want this type of power, you must be willing to pay the price. You must learn to put your flesh under subjection, and God will give you power to do great things for Him.

Points: You must start minding spiritual things above physical ones if you want the power of God in your life.
Bible in one year: Romans 15, Romans 16

Hymn Title: Praise Him! Praise Him! Jesus, Our Blessed Redeemer!

  1. Praise Him! Praise Him! Jesus,

our blessed Redeemer!
Sing, O earth –
His wonderful love proclaim!
Hail Him! Hail Him!
highest archangels in glory,
Strength and honor
give to His holy name!
Like a shepherd,
Jesus will guard His children
In His arms He
carries them all day long:
O ye saints that
dwellon the mountain of Zion.
Praise Him! Praise Him!
ever in joyful song

  2. Praise Him! Praise Him! 

Jesus, our blessed Redeemer,
For our sins He
suffer’d and bled and died; He, our Rock, our
Hope of eternal salvation,
Hail Him! Hail Him!
Jesus, the Crucified; Loving Savior,
meekly enduring sorrow,
Crowned with thorns that
cruelly pierced His brow; Once for us rejected,
despised, and forsaken,
Prince of Glory,
ever triumphant now.

  3. Praise Him! Praise Him! 

Jesus, our blessed Redeemer,
Heav’nly portals
loud with hosannahs ring!
Jesus, Savior,
reigneth for ever and ever; Crown Him! Crown Him!
Prophet and Priest and King!
Death is vanquished!
Tell it with joy, ye faithful,
Where is now thy victory,
boasting grave?
Jesus lives! No longer
thy portals are cheerless; Jesus lives, the mighty
and strong to save.
