TOPIC : THE CREATIVE POWER OF PRAYER
TEXT : ACTS 4:24, 29-31
[24]And when they heard that, they lifted up their voice to God with one accord, and said, Lord, thou art God, which hast made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and all that in them is:
[29]And now, Lord, behold their threatenings: and grant unto thy servants, that with all boldness they may speak thy word,
[30]By stretching forth thine hand to heal; and that signs and wonders may be done by the name of thy holy child Jesus.
[31]And when they had prayed, the place was shaken where they were assembled together; and they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and they spake the word of God with boldness.
Did you notice what the scripture said in verse 31, they were filled with the Holy spirit and the place where they were gathered was shaken.
I know you would subject this to your scientific mind and declare very loud that it is a scam.
But the things of the spirit look like scams to spiritual babies.
Many years ago my brother in law pastor Lewis was leaving in Surulere area of Lagos.
They were visited by a born again retired army officer, connel Okiki.
While they were praying in the sitting room, after a while, the whole building began to shake.
I do not think they knew that such happened.
When you start praying for souls and for God's plan for His earth, you will start seeing the power of God manifest in strange dimensions.
In every generation, those who focus on God and hunger to know Him emerge as spiritual giants.
Satan's greatest quest is to have men of vision trapped in the net of immorality, suffocating materialism and acute prayerlessness.
God is searching relentlessly for intercessors whose prayers will awaken the sleeping warriors and resurrect the dead giants.
Men and women whose prayers will reverse all the works of the wicked one.
Truly, prayer can shake any situation and bring it down to it's knees.
God bless you.
With the God I serve, nothing shall be impossible.
Your case is not bigger than God.
May you have a God filled day in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
Your Victory is already guaranteed
It is well, do not give up, with God all things are possible
(Please be a blessing to seven persons by sending to them devotionals)
