THE POWER TO BECOME
MEMORISE
But
as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even
to them that believe on his name
JOHN 1 : 12.
READ
1 SAMUEL 16 : 11 – 13.
11 And Samuel
said unto Jesse, Are here all thy children? And he said, There remaineth yet
the youngest, and, behold, he keepeth the sheep. And Samuel said unto Jesse,
Send and fetch him: for we will not sit down till he come hither.
12 And he
sent, and brought him in. Now he was ruddy, and withal of a beautiful
countenance, and goodly to look to. And the LORD said, Arise, anoint him: for
this
is he.
13 Then
Samuel took the horn of oil, and anointed him in the midst of his brethren: and
the Spirit of the LORD came upon David from that day forward. So Samuel rose
up, and went
to Ramah.
MESSAGE
In 1 Samuel 2 : 8, we read of what the Almighty God can make out of the
life of an ordinary person. He gives the power to become. This power come to an
individual by the spirit of God. When the power of the Holyspirit comes in
contact with anordinary person, that fellows ceases to be ordinary and becomes
extraordinary.
However, before the gift of the Holy spirit can
come upon an individual, he or she must posses some qualities that will bring
about such empowerment. Before Godcan Trust you with His power, He would have
ascertained that you would make good use of it. God gives His Power for the
purpose of expanding His Kingdom on
earth ( Acts 1 : 8 )
David was given the power to become a deliverance
minister through the instrumentality of the anointing. What Spiritual work can
anyone do without anointing? Absolute Nothing! Some people do not know the
essence of the anointing; they think being ordained is just for the conferment
of titles such as deacons, deaconess, pastor, bishop etc. No! The primary
essence of being ordained is to impart the anointing that destroys yokes. Such
yokes are first destroyed in the life of the anointed. The anointing equips a
person for spiritual assignments that are primarily geared towards the
destruction of the kingdom of the devil.
One of my sons describes the need for the anointing
this way ” when an engineer does his engineering work in a secular
organisations, he does not need the anointing. However, when that same engineer
becomes engaged in the service of the church, he needs the anointing to
succeed. This is so because the devil knows he now works to pull down his
kingdom through the medium of the church.” An electronics engineer in the media
department of a living church organisations or in a Christian media house
definitely need the Holyspirit ‘s anointing to succeed in making the gospel
heard either through the pulpit or on television screens. This is the reasons
why every skilled worker of the church, including financial managers, need to
be born again, sanctified and Holyspirit filled if they would not end up
becoming like Judas Iscariot. This will make them obtain power to become
unstoppable and indestructible vessels of honour in the household of faith.
