KEY VERSE
“But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me…” — Acts 1:8
INTRODUCTION
The Christian life was never designed to be lived in human strength alone. From the very beginning, God intended His people to walk in supernatural power. Divine power is not reserved for a select few; it is the inheritance of every believer who yields to the Holy Spirit.
As we continue our journey in Our Year of Signs and Wonders, God is calling His people to move beyond theory and into demonstration. Christianity is not merely a belief system, it is a life empowered by the Spirit of God.
MESSAGE
Divine power is the enabling force of the Holy Spirit that equips believers to live victoriously and fulfill God’s purposes on earth. Jesus instructed His disciples not to begin ministry until they were endued with power from on high. He knew that without divine power, their efforts would be limited and ineffective.
The same Holy Spirit who empowered the early Church dwells in believers today. That power enables you to:
- Live above sin and spiritual defeat
- Overcome fear, opposition, and limitations
- Pray with authority and see results
- Minister healing, deliverance, and restoration
Divine power is released through intimacy with God, obedience to His Word, and sensitivity to the Holy Spirit. It is not activated by human effort but by surrender.
When the Holy Spirit fills a believer, ordinary people become instruments of extraordinary impact. Weakness gives way to strength, fear gives way to boldness, and confusion gives way to clarity.
CONCLUSION
God never intended His children to live powerless lives. The same power that raised Jesus from the dead is available to you today. As you yield yourself fully to the Holy Spirit, divine power will flow through you to transform lives, including your own.
This is your season to walk in the fullness of God’s power and demonstrate His glory wherever you go.
