The word 'power' here is 'dunamis' in Greek, which means 'miraculous
power, or mighty work', from the word
'dunamai', meaning 'to be able or possible'. Yes, indeed, He is the Lord who is
able, and all things are possible to Him!
In a time of worship and prayer, I heard these words from the Lord for this time and season:
"These coming four months are months of recovery. Many of you have been asking for more of Me and the manifestation of My power, and I have heard it. Know that My power is present, not absent. There's an anointing flowing and coming very strongly beginning this month, especially in the areas of restoration and healing. Take it with you and be blessed. I will bless your hands. Yes, I will put My hand upon your hands. I will put My anointing upon your hands. There's power for healing. There's power for miracles. There's power to prosper. And there's so much more that I want to put upon your hands. Receive it with your hands."
Acts 10:38 says, '... how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power ('dunamis'), who went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with Him'.
And this same power is now here to break every yoke in your life! By the way, a 'yoke' is anything that oppresses or hinders you from living (or moving) effectively in life. For example, 'sickness' is a form of 'yoke', because 'sickness' oppresses and hinders you from living (or moving) effectively in life! You can't do many things, or enjoy God's blessings to the fullest when you are sick!
In Luke 4:18-19, Jesus said, "The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me because He has anointed Me to preach the gospel to the poor; He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and recovery of sight to the blind, to set at liberty those who are oppressed, to proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord."
As a Spirit-filled believer, this very same power has already come upon you, because Acts 1:8 says, 'But you shall receive power ('dunamis')
when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you shall be
witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of
the earth'.
"How do I activate
this power that's in me?"
By believing and agreeing with Him!
Hebrews 11:6 says,
'But without faith (i.e. believing) it is impossible to please Him, for He who comes
to Him must believe that He is (i.e. present now), and
that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him'.
Notice the word 'please' here is 'euaresteo' in Greek, from the word
'euarestos', which means 'to be fully agreeable with'. Therefore, 'to please Him' here is 'to
be fully agreeable with Him'!
The Bible says Jesus is the Word! (John 1:1-2, John 1:14). 'To be fully agreeable with Him' is 'to obey and to act on His Word'!
When Peter believed that He is and agreed with Jesus' one word for him "Come", he began walking on water! (see Matthew 14:28-29) 'Walking on water' here speaks of you triumphing over your natural condition, situation, or circumstance.
When the group of men believed and agreed that the power of the Lord was present to heal (make whole) their paralyzed friend, they did not allow the crowd (or even the roof!) to stop them from bringing this man into the midst before Jesus. They eventually saw their reward! (see Luke 5:17-26)
When the woman who had a flow of blood for twelve years believed and agreed that if she could touch Jesus' garment in the midst of the crowd, she would be healed of her affliction. And of course, she too saw her reward! (see Mark 5:25-34)
Indeed, He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him. 'To diligently seek Him' is 'to keep and keep on looking to Him, no matter what'.
Declare upon any area of your body (or your situation) that needs healing or miracle right now:
"The power of God is now present in my .............. , and is now working mightily to heal me. In Jesus' name. Amen."
People of God, keep believing, keep agreeing with what God says (not what the 'crowd' says), and you'll be on your way to your complete healing and wholeness. Amen!
People of God, keep believing, keep agreeing with what God says (not what the 'crowd' says), and you'll be on your way to your complete healing and wholeness. Amen!
