RHAPSODY OF REALITIES DAILY DEVOTIONAL. LET HIM TAKE CHARGE OF YOUR LIFE - PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME. SATURDAY, JUNE 4TH 2016.
But
ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye
shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea, and in
Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth (Acts 1:8).
There’re
people who, as much as they desire to serve God with their lives, find
themselves struggling with several things that eventually get them miserable in
life. The reason for this is clear: it’s either they don’t have the Holy
Spirit, or they’re not yielded to Him. If indeed they’ve received Him to live
in them, He’s not in charge of their lives.
No
one can successfully live the Christian life without the Holy Spirit. He’s the
One that brings the power of God into your life to strengthen you, and for you
to live effectively as a Christian. He teaches you the Word, so you can know
God’s perfect will, and then guides you to live in, and fulfill, your destiny in
Christ.
With
the Holy Spirit, your potentials are limitless. His presence in your life makes
you energetic, fervent, efficient, excellent and bold. He’s not a mere power or
influence; He’s the power of God, the active personality of the Godhead. Let
Him take charge of your life, and there’ll be nothing you can’t do. He’s the
help and power you need for all things. He gives you the dynamic ability to
effect changes, and the divine enablement to accomplish any task and change
hopeless situations.
Paul
said, “I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me” (Philippians
4:13). He knew that with the Holy Spirit, he had all he needed to live the
transcendent life, and gloriously fulfill his divine destiny in Christ. No
wonder his submission in 2 Corinthians 3:5 AMP: “Not that we are fit (qualified
and sufficient in ability) of ourselves to form personal judgments or to claim
or count anything as coming from us, but our power and ability and sufficiency
are from God.”
Become
sufficient in His sufficiency. Yield to Him to work through you, and walk in
you, and your struggles will be over. When He takes charge of your life, you’ll
experience success, increase, progress and victories only.
CONFESSION
God
hasn’t given me a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind!
The Lord is my help and my ability. He’s my strength and my sufficiency;
therefore, I can do all things by His power that works in me mightily. I’m
effective and effectual in the communication and expression of my faith. Glory
to God!
Further
Study: || John 16:14 AMP He will honor and glorify Me, because He will take of
(receive, draw upon) what is Mine and will reveal (declare, disclose, transmit)
it to you. ||
||
John 14:26 But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will
send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your
remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. ||
||
Romans 8:11 But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell
in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal
bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you. ||
