TOPIC: KEY TO IMPACT
SCRIPTURE: The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly. – John 10:10
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: To be powerless is to be useless to the afflicted
One of the major assignments of the devil is to cause oppressions, afflictions, and depressions in the lives of people. He does this in order to distract people from serving God. But Jesus came to rescue the oppressed and has commanded us to preach the gospel of salvation and deliverance to the lost.
How can we rescue the oppressed like our Master, Jesus Christ? It takes power to be an effective witness and to rescue the oppressed. To be powerless is to be useless to those who are tormented by the devil. Imagine seeing people you love suffering and you cannot help them! You are incapacitated by powerlessness and you are just helplessly watching. This shall not be your portion in Jesus’ Name.
I remember an incident that happened when I was in school. A brother was afflicted with terrible peptic ulcer disease. They had given him the best available medication yet he was not healed. In anger, I laid hand on his tummy and rebuked the devil. Though I was not a pastor then, I carried fire. He jumped up from the ground and screamed: ‘It is gone!’ You see, I would have been watching helplessly if I was powerless.
Beloved, where power is lacking, people watch helplessly while the afflicted suffer under the devil’s torment. Today, the power of God that will make you useful to your
generation is coming upon you, in Jesus’ Name.
Remember this: To be powerless is to be useless to the afflicted.
ASSIGNMENT(S):
1. Ask the LORD to make you useful to your generation
2. Make demands on God’s power to rescue the oppressed and deliver the afflicted.
PRAYER: O LORD, make me useful to my generation. I make demands on the Anointing of the Holy Spirit, in Jesus’ Name.
