Prophetic Series - Day 10


Hello everyone that has been following since inception and those just joining. I greet you in the name of Him that has the Sea of Glass before His Throne reflecting everything in all realms of existence to Him. We are still looking at the Spiritual Gifts that enable the Prophet to be effective in his/her assignment.
 I made an audacious statement at the beginning of this session that ALL THE GIFTS OF THE SPIRIT MANIFEST IN ONE WAY OR THE OTHER IN THE PROPHETIC OFFICE.
Though this is not true for all prophets but, the fullness of the prophetic office require all spiritual gifts at work.
We have looked at the Revelational Gifts and Utterance Gifts. Now, THE POWER GIFTS.
The Power Gifts are three:
A. THE GIFT OF FAITH.
B. THE GIFTS OF HEALINGS
C. THE WORKINGS OF MIRACLES.
Take note of the names; the correct names are what I gave above.

A. THE GIFT OF FAITH:
this is the sudden supernatural release/deposit of the God-kind of faith into the spirit of a believer to believe/receive something specific from God. Selah! Take note of every word in this definition.
 This faith is different from the faith Paul talked about in ROM. 10:17. This one is sudden not gradual. The faith that comes by hearing God's Word comes gradually. It can grow 2Thess. 1:3, increase/decrease, can be little/great Mt. 6:30, 8:10, can be weak/strong ROM. 4:17-21. It is also true that when we got born again, WE WERE ALL GIVEN A MEASURE OF FAITH IN OUR SPIRITUAL START-UP PACK. ROM. 12:3. We all got the same measure at salvation. We all have the Spirit of faith (2 Cor. 4:13) because we have the Holy Ghost. The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of Faith.  Some ignoramuses have taught that a believer has faith that he doesn't need to grow in faith or increase in faith. You know just like Kenneth Hagin used to say, 'I'd rather hear the donkey Bray than listen to such folks'. ALL SPIRITUAL TRUTHS HAVE A PRACTICAL ASPECT TO IT. If you can't practicalize it, it is either wrong or you don't have it. Don't deceive yourself, there are many things the Saving Faith can't do. You have got to feed your faith on God's Word. Thank God for the Word of Faith Dispensation. You better go and learn. Faith is seen in action. THE END OF FAITH IS RESULT. THE SPOKEN WORD MUST BECOME MANIFESTED. THE WORD CAN BE MADE FLESH AND DWELL IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD.

     THE GIFT OF FAITH
You see, there is a CREATIVE DIMENSION TO THE PROPHETIC MINISTRY. The Gift of Faith and Workings of Miracles are largely responsible for this dimension. Without mincing words, THE PROPHETS FUNCTION MORE IN GOD'S ABILITY TO CALL THINGS THAT BE NOT AS THOUGH THEY ARE.
Jesus says in John  14:14 If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it.
The meaning of this verse from the Greek rendering is that even if the thing is not in existence, I WILL CREATE IT.
By what ability did God employed to call forth light right from the belly of darkness? By what ability did Moses brought plagues upon the unrepentant Pharaoh and the Egyptians? How did Elijah called down fire upon the soldiers that were sent to arrest him? How could Elijah the Tishbite, who was of the inhabitants of Gilead, said unto Ahab, As the LORD God of Israel liveth, before whom I stand, there shall not be dew nor rain these years, but according to my word.1 KGS 17:1?
How were the Patriarchs able to pronounce blessings/curses upon their descendants and it came to pass? How was Joshua able to pronounce a curse upon whoever rebuild Jericho and long after he was gone, his decree was very alive in the Earth? By what ability did Jesus engaged in to turn the living fig tree to a load of firewood in less than 24 hours? By what ability did Apostle Ayo Babalola called down literal fire upon witchcraft coven in those days? I am talking about THE GIFT OF FAITH. It is a sudden impartation of faith and it is always directed at something specific. THIS FAITH REMAINS ACTIVE WITHOUT WEAKENING AGAINST ALL CONTRADICTORY EVIDENCES UNTIL THE MISSION IS ACCOMPLISHED.
The faith that comes by studying God's Word had to be kept alive by continually meditating on God's Word until the result show up. This is not completely when the gift of faith is at work. The boldness and the doggedness are matchless. There is no fiery dart of doubt and unbelief that the Infernal Realm can throw that can stop the fulfilment of the words that were spoken when this gift is in operation.
The fulfillment of all Messianic prophecies was sponsored by the operation of the gift of faith.
HOW IT IS MANIFESTED?
It is manifested majorly through SPOKEN WORDS.
Most times, it comes on the wing of the gift of Prophecy. Many times, THE PREDICTIONS OF THE PROPHETS ARE CARRIED OUT/BROUGHT INTO EXISTENCE BY THE GIFT OF FAITH.
The future is created by the words spoken out WITH THE GOD KIND OF FAITH. HALLELOYAH!
Let me stop here tonight and continue tomorrow.
      ACTIVATION
2 Cor. 4:13 says 'We having the same spirit of faith, according as it is written, I believed, and therefore have I spoken; we also believe, and therefore speak'. Open your mouth and declare out 'I ALSO HAVE THE SAME SPIRIT OF FAITH. My words are established unto me. I handle the tangibility of my words in Jesus' name. Amen.

Prayer of Enquiry

PRAYER OF ENQUIRY Prayer is a well established and accepted doctrine in all denominations of the body of Christ. Although, there are differences in our modes of prayer, we all believe in the efficacy of lifting up our voice to God to hear our requests and answer them. As much as we do a lot of this, we don't take the full advantage of it as children of God. We would rather worry and think things through rather than calling on God for help. This can be due to lack of faith in the power of God or being slothful in prayers. Apart from the aforementioned factors that prevent us from enjoying the efficacy of prayers, one key factor that prayer hinges on is praying correctly. To pray correctly simply means to pray according to the will of God. It is easy to know the will of God about sickness and poverty because they are expressly written in bible, but even at this, we still do not get answers when we pray. What you might be missing out may be a simple enquiry. The prayer ...

Holy Spirit 15- The Seven Spirits of God- Part 2

We have established yesterday that the 7 Spirits of God describe the 7 fold distinct manifestation of the Holy Spirit and it also describes the perfection of the Spirit of God. The answer to yesterday's quiz is: when God stepped into the matter in Eden, the 7 persons brought by the number 7 are: Adam, Eve, Physical Serpent, spiritual Serpent (the Devil), the Seed of the Woman (Jesus the Christ), the seed of the spiritual serpent (Antichrist) and God Himself . Re- read Day 14 to know how this fit in. Today's Broadcast 2. THE SPIRIT OF WISDOM Is. 11:2, Eph. 1:17 This is the Spirit that reveals to you the PLANS AND PURPOSES OF GOD CONCERNING YOUR LIFE, A MATTER, PLACE, etc. If you will ever know why you are on earth, you need the operation of the Spirit of Wisdom. He reveals EVERYTHING AND ANYTHING about the future. There are 3 prominent Greek words used for Wisdom relevant to our subject; SOPHIA, SUNESIS and PHRONESIS. A. SOPHIA describes the entire wisdom of God. T...

Holy Spirit 4- The Symbol of Dove

Mt. 3:16, Mk. 1:10. This typifies the harmless and gentle nature of God the Holy Spirit. He neither FORCE NOR FUSS ANYONE. It is only the Devil that force people and even afflict them without their consent. The Holy Spirit IS NOT a dove; He created the dove. Luke 3:22 says 'the Holy Spirit descended in a bodily form like a dove upon Him'. Many have wrongly interpreted this verse and that's why many church logos have the dove as an integral part of it. You need to know that the church can NEVER COME INTO HER FULL POTENTIAL AND RELEVANCE ON THE EARTH UNTIL SHE KNOWS (knowledge with participation-Greek EPIGNOSIS) the Holy Spirit. The person that designed the handbill for EPIGNOSIS Nite had already put a Dove there to represent 'the Holy Spirit'. I told him to remove it. The symbols in most cases are already becoming an idol in many people's hearts and rather than for many to think of the Holy Spirit as a person, they think of Him as a dove/fire/wind,etc. T...
