⏩ COVENANT OF INFALLIBLE PROOFS ⏪ DAY 14 "IT'S YOU TO ACTIVATE IT"

God's power is compared with soap in the bathroom. No matter how good smelling is the soap, no matter how able the soap is to remove the stain or the dust, no matter how able the soap is to make clean, as long as I don't take it and don't apply it on my body, it cannot do anything to me.

In the same way, the Word you do not put to work no matter how powerful it is cannot and will never do anything in your life.

When we say "activate", what do we mean? When we say  to activate we simply mean to act upon which implies to obey, to follow, to observe or to put into practice. 

Among many cases in Scriptures, let me give you some that show clearly that activation is the believer's responsibility to demonstrate and display the power of God in his life.

Case number 1 : In 2 Kings 5:10, Elisha sent a messenger unto Naaman, saying, "Go and wash in Jordan seven times, and thy flesh shall come again to thee, and thou shalt be clean."

Case number 2 : In Luke 5:4, Jesus says to Peter, "Launch out into the deep, and let down your nets for a draught."

Case number 3 : In John 9:11, Jesus says to the blind man, "Go, wash in the pool of Siloam, (which is by interpretation, Sent.)"

Fact 1 : All those instructions and words carried in them the weight of the supernatural power of God. 

In Naaman's case, the detergent that would cleanse him from his leprosy was in that word. In Peter's case, the solution that would end his frustration was in that word. In the blind's case, the power that would break his blindness and restore his sight was in that word.

Fact 2 : After the word was released, in each one of them, nothing changed until the instructions were activated meaning acted upon. Yet, the power was present in the Word but it would not show or manifest until the individual takes responsibility to put it to work so that it will work.

In Naaman's case, after the word was released, the leprosy was still present on his body. In Peter's case, after the word was spoken, the net was still empty. In the blind's case, after the word was released, he was still blind.

Fact 3 : When each man took responsibility to act upon the Word released to them, no one remained the same because each one's story changed, each one's concern turned into living testimony.

After Naaman activated the power by obeying to the Word, his leprosy was cleansed.

2 Kings 5:14 "Then went he down, and dipped himself seven times in Jordan, according to the saying of the man of God: and his flesh came again like unto the flesh of a little child, and he was clean."

After Peter activated the power by acting upon the Word, his failure was turned into success.

Luke 5:6 And when they had this done, they inclosed a great multitude of fishes: and their net brake.

After the blind activated the power by putting the Word to work, he recovered his sight.

John 9:7 ... He went his way therefore, and washed, and came seeing.

QUESTION TO PONDER : What is the Word that the Lord spoke clearly to you but you still struggle to put into practice?

PROPHETIC DECLARATIONS AND PRAYERS

Prayer 1 | Father, endue me with the spirit of obedience so that I will not be misplaced, so that no one will take my place, so that no one will replace me where you have positionned me.

Acts 1:20 For it is written in the book of Psalms, Let his habitation be desolate, and let no man dwell therein: and his bishoprick let another take.

Acts 1:20 GWV You’ve read in Psalms, ‘Let his home be deserted, and let no one live there,’ and ‘Let someone else take his position.’" "Therefore, someone must be added to our number to serve with us as a witness that Jesus came back to life.

Prayer 2 | In the Name of Jesus Christ, I rebuke  the disobedient spirit of Vatshi.

Esther 1:19 If it please the king, let there go a royal commandment from him, and let it be written among the laws of the Persians and the Medes, that it be not altered, That Vashti come no more before king Ahasuerus; and let the king give her royal estate unto another that is better than she.

Prayer 3 | Lord, fill me with the spirit of humility, lowliness of mind and meekness so that I will never take for granted your grace upon my life. Please, keep me always conscious of the fact that I am not better than anyone and that there is always someone better than myself.

1 Samuel 15:28 And Samuel said unto him, The LORD hath rent the kingdom of Israel from thee this day, and hath given it to a neighbour of thine, [that is] better than thou.

Romans 3:9 What then? are we better [than they]? No, in no wise: for we have before proved both Jews and Gentiles, that they are all under sin; 

Philippians 2:3 [Let] nothing [be done] through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves.
