Hello everyone, I welcome you to another edition of this series. Yesterday, I laid emphasis on the fact that the Joel Army are not just those who are born again but, are those whose lives are driven BY THE WORD OF THE LORD Joel 2:11 and they are people that their own speaking in tongues has translated into TANGIBLE POWER.
We have many talkers, shouters, singers, screamers and downloaders of songs/messages nowadays. But, we have FEW DOERS. DUNAMIS POWER is generated in the place of Prayers. Listen, the authority Elijah used to shut the heaven in the days of Ahab was generated in the place of Prayers. The 29Secs bold declaration in the Palace of Ahab was not it. James gave us insight into it James 5:17-18. The Apostles said they would commit themselves to the ministry of Word and Prayer that they wouldn't leave these to serve tables. But notice that Stephen was different from the others called to SERVE TABLES. In Acts 6 vs. 5, Stephen was said to be full of Faith and the Holy Ghost. But verse 8 said he was FULL OF FAITH AND POWER, DID GREAT WONDERS AND MIRACLES AMONG THE PEOPLE.
What was responsible for this change? I am sure it is because he had added the APOSTOLIC MENU OF WORD AND PRAYER TO HIS OWN DAILY MEAL.
There is a way you can generate Power through serious prayers.
In these days of Microwave Church Services where you can have 4 Services within 6hours, one is not surprised that we are where we are today.
Consistent Prayer is a necessity for Power generation.
Not only this, the Joel Army must be people given to the WORD OF GOD. Remember that Joel 2:11 says THE VOICE OF THE LORD DRIVES THIS ARMY. You have to be full of God's Word. Apostle Paul admonishes us in Col. 3:16 'Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord'.
This connotes a deliberate action. Our generation seems to be blessed and cursed at the time and in the same degree. How do I mean?
We have access to loads of information and Revelations from centuries; thousands of PDFs of books of great men and women down the ages, different Bible translations and Concordances and loads of impactful videos online yet, the time to sit down and consume these materials seems to be a luxury we couldn't afford.
But, a new breed arises that will be very hungry not just to acquire those materials but to ferociously devour them.
How do you get God's Word into You?
A. READ YOUR BIBLE AND OTHER RELEVANT MATERIALS. The first prerequisite to receiving RHEMA (GOD'S SPOKEN WORD) is to have the LOGOS (GOD'S WRITTEN WORD) INTO YOU. This is very basic.
B. MEDITATION. This is the process of translating the LOGOS IN YOUR HEAD TO RHEMA IN YOUR HEART. It involves DEEP THINKING/PONDERING ON GOD'S WORD, READING AND ASKING QUESTIONS, MUTTERING UNDER YOUR BREATH, SPEAKING, SHOUTING AND ROARING THE WORD.
Commit yourself to contemplating the Word of God. God bless you.
