TOPICโจIT REQUIRES THE SUPERNATURALโจ
๐ But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto meโฆ (Acts 1:8).
Preaching the Gospel requires the supernatural. Notice I didnโt say the โspectacularโ but the supernatural. The supernatural is that which is powered by the Spirit. The Spirit of God is in us and with us; Heโs the power of our lives. Our sufficiency is in Him. 2 Corinthians 3:5-6 says, โNot that we are sufficient of ourselves to think anything as of ourselves; but our sufficiency is of God; who also hath made us able ministers of the new testamentโฆ.โ
The ministry youโve been called into is the ministry of the Spirit, entrusted to you by the Spirit Himself. Without Him, you cannot fulfil it; but with Him, nothing is impossible. This is why your relationship with Him is absolutely vital.
As much as God wanted the early disciples to go out and preach the Gospel, He gave them a profound instruction: โAnd, behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with power from on highโ (Luke 24:49). The empowerment came just as promised in Acts 2:1-4, when they were filled with the Holy Spirit.
From that moment, everything changed; it became dynamic evangelism. They preached the Gospel with boldness and demonstrated the power of God through miracles, signs, and wonders by the Holy Spirit. Hallelujah! The message He gave us is one thatโs humanly difficult to believe without the supernatural. In fact, it was easier for those in Bible days to believe it than it is for people today, but even then, they still needed the supernatural. How much more, therefore, do we need it in our day! We need the proof of our message. And our heavenly Father is fully aware of this and has already made the necessary provisions.
Youโre not the one trying to convince God to give you proof; Heโs the one telling you that you need it. Heโs the one offering it. Many pray, โO God, I want to preach the Gospel with power,โ but He already knows that. Heโs the one stirring that desire in your heart. So, pay attention as He guides you in the steps to take.
Having received the Holy Spirit, you now have the power to be an effective witness, a proof-producer, just as we read in our opening scripture. Trust His grace at work in your life. Trust His Word. When He speaks to you and gives you guidance in your heart, receive it. His guidance is always supernatural, even when it may not appear outwardly spectacular.
๐ PRAYER
In the Name of the Lord Jesus, I function always in the power of the Spirit. Iโm yielded to the Holy Spirit who inspires my thoughts, words, and confirms my message with miraculous signs and wonders. Iโm a dispenser of divine power and solutions. Through me, lives are transformed and nations are impacted, by the Spirit of God. Amen.
