Powering UP America!

Key Scripture:  “Now to Him who by His power within us is able to do far more than we ever dare to ask or imagine—to Him be glory in the Church through Jesus Christ for ever and ever, amen!”  Ephesians 3:20,21 Phillips

Power Point:

Jesus’ life was a perfect example of God’s will. Everything He did was in perfect harmony with the mind, will and heart of God. Everything He did, glorified the goodness of God. Following the cursing of the fig tree, Jesus turns to His disciples and tells them that no matter how big a mountain or an obstacle may look to you, you simply tell it to get out of your way. The next sentence is the key. “IF you do not doubt in your heart, but believe the things that you say, You’ll receive them-whatever you ask.  And then He makes an incredible promise to His children; “Therefore, I am telling you this, whatever things you ask, when you pray, believe that you receive them and you will have them.”

        Jesus never leaves us without options does He?  He tells us to speak to the mountains that are obstructing His power in this nation. Don’t let yourself be talked out of faith. Be absolutely sure that what God has promised, He is also able to do. And you will receive the reward of your faith. You will have what you ask. Whatever means whatever!

    What Jesus has given us to battle the enemy is the Name that is above all other names, and it works best when you walk in faith. It works best when you believe that He is Who He says He is, and He will do what He says He will do. Remember that what you say has power for either life or death. If you’ve spent too much time listening to too many people and not enough time listening to God, you’re probably wavering and hesitating and doubting.  If that’s happening to you, turn off the TV. Do NOT read negative emails about our dire situations. And, for heaven’s sake, say only what God says.  He promises us that He is with us, that He will deliver us, and that He will show up on our behalf. He promises to give us the nations, and make us an example of His goodness. He’s looking for a strong heart to support. Is it yours?

     I’ve heard people say that we are in the “last days”, that things are going to be so bad we might as well just give up; that it must be God’s will. But there is a little thought that keeps popping up at the back of my mind that says the Church is a triumphant church. Isn’t it possible that in the last days or before the last days, God’s Spirit will be gushing out of us and that people will see the power of God on our lives, and how perfectly good His will is for us?  Isn’t it just remotely possible that we’re supposed to be living, breathing proof of the goodness of God to deliver and care for His people? He calls us more than conquerors doesn’t He?  I think that means that we win, above and beyond all that we could ask or think.

     Suit up Beloved. Put on your armor and start marching. This battle is not over until God says its over. And He says this:

“And thanks be to God, who always leads us in His triumph in Christ, and through us diffuses the fragrance of His knowledge in every place.  For we are to God the fragrance of Christ, an aroma of life.”   

2 Corinthians 2:14,15

Power Prayer For America:

Father, I haven’t been able to smell the fragrance of the knowledge of You in this place for awhile, but I think that the winds of change are blowing a fresh breath over this land again.  I believe that what the enemy has meant for harm You are turning to good. It’s what You do.

Thank You for the refreshing of the breath of Your presence that is breathing new life into dead bones, and tired soldiers. Thank You for raising up Joshua’s all over this country to stand in the battle for Truth, no matter what the odds look like. Help me to keep their arms lifted in strength. Dear God, bless America.

Let Your Truth keep marching on!

In Jesus Name.  Amen!
