Friends, greetings in Jesus Name! Today I will be sharing with you on what I title, “Manifesting God’s Power”. Many of us want to see the living proof of God’s power in our lives. I mean, we want to command sicknesses and diseases to go, raise the dead, cast out demons, have our needs met, and constantly walk in victory, and so on. Even though this power is made available for free, it still does not come cheaply. There is a price to be paid. What’s the price? It’s about presenting our lives as living sacrifice, holy and acceptable unto God. In other words, living a life that attracts God’s presence! Instead of walking in victory, many today are walking in defeat. In John 14:12 Jesus declared, “He who believes in me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do.” Meaning, if Jesus raised the dead, cast out devils, opened blind eyes, cleanse the lepers, fed five thousand men with two fishes and five loaves – then you too can do even greater. Isn’t that interesting!

But what is holding us back? It’s simple! Pay the Price and Get the Prize. In the Bible we saw how Apostle Paul displayed God’s Power, even Peter’s shadow healing the sick, Elijah issued a command and it never rained for three years, and so on. All these people paid the price. According to Norvel Hayes, “The only reason you can’t do more than you are doing right now is that you don’t have enough Power. You can do anything if you have God’s Power to do it. Jesus had a lot of God’s Power. He paid the price to get it.” Even as God while on earth, Jesus constantly “rose early in the morning to pray” (Mark 1:35); “He fasted forty days without food” (Matt. 4:2). If I may ask: When last did you fast and pray intensely, how many chapters of the Bible do you read daily, do you meditate on scriptures, how passionate are you about soul winning, are your colleagues at work aware that you are born again, when last did you lay hands on the sick?

You see, there is no short cut to manifesting God’s power. It’s either you pay the price or nothing. As God’s children, the entire world awaits our manifestation (Rom. 8:19). The world won’t get better without fire brand Christians occupying their places of influence. “You are the salt of the earth, the light of the world” (Matt. 5:13-14). Meaning, you are an embodiment of light. The world remains in darkness until you show up. Remember, “But as many as received Him, to them he gave the Power to become the children of God” (John 1:12). The moment you received Christ, you were born into power. But that power becomes visible when you begin to walk in the newness of Christ. You have no excuse to walk in defeat any longer. Now make a radical decision today to increase your commitment in the things of God. As you do, your life will never remain the same again. Yes, I am a witness. Have a fantastic week. With love, Elvis!
