WALK IN POWER

21ST AUGUST 2024

Scripture Reading: LUKE 15: 11-32

Focus

“And the younger of them said to his father, Father, give me the portion of goods that falleth to me. And he divided unto them his living.” (Luke 15: 12)

Our Focal Scripture speaks of how the prodigal son asked his father to give him the portion of goods (properties) that pertained to him. In bible times, the Jews had the practice of blessing their sons before they moved on to their own endeavours. Notice that the prodigal son did not ask for the blessings of the father; he simply asked for goods; he asked for things but didn’t ask for the blessing that sustains things.

Friend, our walk with God is a walk of power. The kingdom of God is not about things only, but about power. Never make the mistake of asking for things but not desiring power. Never make the mistake of desiring possessions and opportunities but not asking for the power that sustains what God has brought your way. Never make the mistake of living without the consciousness of the power of God. Don’t choose to have goods and things, but forget to get the blessing.

Whatever you do as a child of God is about power. Your ability to confront the gates of hell effectively is about power. Your ability to subdue demons and principalities is about power. Your ability to remain relevant despite your rivals and competitors, is about power. Your ability to stay righteous in a sinful world, is about power. Your ability to remain risen after you have risen, is power. It’s a walk of power essentially.

When Jesus would go back to heaven to be with the Father, He instructed the disciples to tarry in Jerusalem until they be endued with power from on high (see Acts 2). When he called His twelve disciples to Him in Matthew 10 vs. 1, He gave them power against unclean spirits. The blessings of God speak of empowerment to prosper; and you would be making the same mistake of the prodigal son if you choose to walk without power.

In all your getting, seek to be filled with the power of God. Don’t be counted like the prodigal son that got the goods but lacked the blessing and power.

Declaration

I walk in power, in Jesus’ name!
