POWER TO GENERATE CHANGES
[[Matt 17:20]] “…verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you.”
The Lord Jesus made it clear that you can accomplish anything with your faith. You can change the course of your life. Life is not to control or manipulate you. As a child of God, you carry the inherent power that can change anything. You can even decide changes in the lives of other people—in your school, city, nation, and world!
Not only do we have the power to change hopeless situations and overturn what Satan has done, but we also have authority with God to alter divine destinies. The bible is litered with countless accounts in the Scriptures of men who changed divine destinies.
The doctrine that Satan has power over God’s people and even Christian can be under some curse is simply satanic. Hos 4:6 leaves us with no doubt that God’s people perish not because Satan is stronger, but rather because they don’t know much. That’s why the Holy Ghost is bringing light to you through God’s word today.
In 2 Kings 20, a man (King Hezekiah) changed the course events that had been divinely ordered of God. He had been sick to the point of death, and one day, God sent the prophet Isaiah to him, who declared, “…Thus saith the Lord, Set thine house in order; for thou shalt die, and not live” (2 Kings 20:1). Imagine God saying this to a man! Notwithstanding, in the next verse, we read that Hezekiah “…turned his face to the wall, and prayed unto the Lord…” (2 Kings 20:2). Immediately, God overturned his death sentence and added fifteen more years to his life (2 Kings 20:6).
If a mere man who was not even saved could change divine order, how much more about a child of God crushing satanic activities under feet. Don’t believe that you are under. If you find yourself in a situation, release your faith and change it.
Now, what does it take you to be able to effect positive and lasting changes in the circumstances of your life? Faith! In our opening text, Jesus said if you have faith as a grain of mustard seed, whatever you say would happen, and nothing shall be impossible unto you. You can be what you want to be, change what you want to change, and achieve what you want to achieve! You have the ability to effect changes through the Spirit, by the Word and prayer! Release your faith today and win.
Prayer:
Dear Father, I thank you for granting me the ability to effect changes through the Spirit, by the Word and prayer! I declare that my life is saturated with endless possibilities; I can do all things through Christ, who strengthens me. Nothing is impossible unto me! Thank you for making me a possessor of all things in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
