✓ THE COST OF HOSTING GOD'S POWER ( Pt 14)

~ Enduring The Making Process Of God.

Every new season will call for sacrifice, patience and endurance.Heb 6:15,The Bible says .."after Abraham patiently endured he obtained the promise ". There is always a process that is divinely orchestrated that ushers saints into their promises and it is never an easy process.

Afflictions and sufferings are the only magnets that attracts honor and glory. Pain and suffering are part of life( 1 Pet 5:10), to reject them is to reject life itself. No pain no gain. No fight no glory. No thorns, no throne. No cross no crown.
Promotion is often preceded by pain.

God determines the path we walk through but we determine how we walk through the path. Don't just go through the pain but grow through the pain. We grow through the a diversity. A smooth sail never made a skilled mariner.

In the Process of refining of your life and destiny,God Himself will allow you go through the furnace of afflictions ( Isaiah 48:10). The magnitude of your afflictions determines the value of your crown.

The Children of Israel had a painful experience while in Egypt the land of slavery. They experienced the silence of God .One of the nature of God is that sometimes He goes silent. In his silence, He tests our patience ,endurance and our stand in him .But even in His silence, He still hears and responds to our cry at His appointed time. Ex 3:7-8

"And the Lord said: "I have surely seen the oppression of My people who are in Egypt, and have heard their cry because of their taskmasters, for I know their sorrows.
So I have come down to deliver them out of the hands of the Egyptians.."

Once He breaks His silence ,we are able to see the manifestations of His Mighty hand. In the silence of God our faith in His Word is built .
The silence of God is still the voice of God, for God is a Speaking Spirit.

~ Prayer And Fasting - Divine Pattern for the Supernatural.

Fasting is not starvation — it is alignment. It is the act of silencing the distractions of the flesh so that the whisper of the Spirit can be heard clearly. Each time you fast, you are declaring to Heaven: “You matter more than food, more than comfort, more than pleasure.” That kind of posture commands divine attention.

From Moses to Elijah, Daniel to Jesus, every man who walked in power was first a man of sacrifice. Encounters are not coincidences; they are rewards for yieldedness. Power is not cheap — it is birthed in consecration. Many desire to manifest glory, but few are willing to embrace the discipline that sustains it.

You cannot be mighty in spirit yet casual in discipline. Fasting refines your spirit, subdues your flesh, and sharpens your discernment. While others feast, men of the Spirit travail. While others sleep, they groan in prayer. That is how mantles are received, nurtured, and preserved.

Beloved, do not wait for a crisis before you fast. Make it your rhythm — your way of life. Let Heaven recognize you as one who lives in continual surrender. The more you die to self, the more of God you manifest.

Remember: true spiritual authority is not built on titles but on altars. Every vessel of impact has a secret place where the flesh is crucified daily. If you desire to carry God’s power, embrace His discipline.
There are disciplines that you develop in you that give you a new identity in the spirit . At this you cease to be a mere believer But you become a mystery and Wonder on earth
The dealings of God with men are generational Anything that God does with a man,he does it beyond him.
Fasting is a pattern in the spirit that licences men to walk in divine mantles and higher graces in Christ Jesus.

~Consecration

Biblically, to consecrate yourself means to set yourself apart from the defilement of the world and dedicate your life completely to God's holy purposes. It is the act of turning away from ordinary, self-driven living to become an active vessel for God's will.
You don't arrive at destiny by chance But by Consecration

The concept appears throughout the Old and New Testaments with several key layers of meaning:
To "Make Holy":
The root Hebrew words for consecration imply being declared holy, sacred, or devoted exclusively to the Lord.

Separation from Sin:
In the Old Testament, consecration often involved physical and spiritual cleansing—such as washing clothes and abstaining from impurities—before approaching God’s presence. It requires removing anything that taints your relationship with a perfect God.
Yielding Control:
In the New Testament, Romans 12:1 describes this as presenting your body as a "living sacrifice". It means surrendering your personal desires and giving control of your thoughts, words, and actions entirely to God.

In Joshua 3:5, Joshua commands the Israelites, "Consecrate yourselves, for tomorrow the Lord will do amazing things among you,"

indicating that preparation and purity are required before witnessing God’s power.
In Romans 12:1-2, believers are urged not to conform to the patterns of the world, but to be transformed and offer themselves wholly to God's service.

~ Ability to Tame Your Food appetite

Food is a necessity for a healthy living on earth. But as much as food is good,it should not reign over you. For Whatever reigns on you becomes your master. When food reigns over Aman, it becomes difficult for him to walk in the Spirit.Food would always attract gluttonous spirit which will never allow you to grow. This spirit kills prayer in man's life chokes hunger for God.

Prayer with fasting are irrefutable biblical keys as far as access to Power is concerned
Inability to tame food appetite,has ruined many lives and destinies on earth. One of the most consibiquous appetite of the flesh, revolves around food. Many men of Kingdom influence are men who have risen above this monster.
In the story of the fall of man in Genesis , see what it says:

"So when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree desirable to make one wise, she took of its fruit and ate. She also gave to her husband with her, and he ate."( Gen 3:6)

It is clear that one of the contributors that made man to disobey God was food appetite. Adam and Eve were men of influence on earth. They were the treasures of God on earth to appoint that God had a specific time when He visited them at the cool of the day ,But they lost it for food.

Any individual who desires to ascend in the realm of power must overcome this appetite.Look at Jesus Christ, immediately the Spirit of God came upon Him and inaugurated Him , in Luke 4, the Bible records that He was led into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil. After he prayed for 40 days and 40 nights he was hungry, then satan showed up and then tested Him

"And the devil said to Him, "If You are the Son of God, command this stone to become bread."(Luke 4:3)

Esau lost his birthright to Jacob because of his inability to tame his appetite for food.

~Ability To Tame Your Appetite .

One of the victories that saints should have is victory over appetites. When appetite rules over a man, it makes him a slave and with this authority,It can attract a covetous spirit which manifests all manner of wickedness in the life of an individual.
What is Appetite ? This means, wild, uncontrolled, non domesticated or trained human tendencies.

Most of the sins that the Israelites committed before God revolved around this monster called appetite. The are:

1. Money appetite
Money has a lot of influence in the lives of men on earth. Money itself has the ability to attract honour,power, influence and it answers all things.
It is the only thing in the Bible that has been compared with God on the Matter worship. See Matt 6:24

"No one can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or else he will be loyal to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon.

From the text, money is a master and people adore,Worship,love and become loyal to it. This is a complete worship.So God acknowledges money as a master that can mislead many when they give it their love.
See 1 Tim 6:10

For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil, for which some have strayed from the faith in their greediness, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.

From the Scripture money is not bad for we need it to run our earthly affairs including preaching of the Good News of the Kingdom on earth; But the LOVE of MONEY is what God is cautioning us about.
There are believers who have exchanged God for money .Forsaken God for the sake of Money
How do you know whether your love is for mammon or God? Just check your Commitments, Sacrifice and time.

Gehazi's Love for earthly treasures made him miss the opportunity that heaven had prepared for him to Ascend in the realm of Power as it was the tradition and customs

~ Proximity to God-
This Means nearness or closeness to God.James 4:8 says ,

"Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded."

The above text assures us that if we draw near to God, He will draw near to us. Our proximity to God determines our ability to know Him! As a result of this proximity: clarity,purity and a closer relationship with God is attained. This is an immense spiritual growth.

~Identifying and serving your Kingdom Mandates .
All believers have been called to serve a certain mandate on earth. Salvation itself is a call that ushers man in the field of God to partner with him. He has given each believer power and authority in order for man to colonize the power of this world with God's Power.

Paul tells Timothy, "Do not neglect the gift that is in you, which was given to you by prophecy with the laying on of the hands of the eldership.( 1Tim 4:14)

This shows that one can have a gift but neglect it for not pursuing it. Paul continues to say to his son in the Lord Timothy:

"Therefore I remind you to stir up the gift of God which is in you through the laying on of my hands."( 2Tim 1:6)
We attain maturity when we identify the specific area where God wants us to serve him and pursue that purpose by the help of the Spirit.

Every believer has a certain ability and grace that is bestowed upon him. This grace and the gift only manifest when the individual fan it into a flame.This means,perusing it, committing yourself to it and practicing the gift. This brings forth spiritual maturity.
