Romans 8:19

For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God.  

DAILY READING    Matthew 16; Numbers 1-2; Ecclesiastes 3:1-15

The manifestation of the sons of God is the manifestation of power. We are sent as deliverers to our families, communities and nations. Jesus said ‘as My Father sent Me so send I you’. We have a divine mandate to manifest signs and wonders wherever we go so that souls can be saved. This is the great commission that we must pursue. This is why we do not get born again and rest on our oars. The captives will only be set free through mighty signs and wonders, just as Moses did in Egypt. Jesus said, ‘except you see signs and wonders you will not believe’. We are not called to preach the gospel in enticing words of men’s wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and power. This alone is what will make the enemy bow and let go of the captives. Verbal negotiations with Pharaoh will not work; he needs to see the power of the living God. It is when the power of the Holy Spirit manifests that every devil begins to run for cover.

As sons of God in this era, it is our responsibility to manifest His power. We are called to pay the price required to see the power of God in our generation. When His power comes, the devils holding people captive will let them go – the devils of sickness, disease, poverty, unbelief, etc will flee. People will know by the miracles that they are in the very presence of God. This is what makes them surrender their lives to God; this is what the manifestation of the sons of God will bring to the earth, and the whole of creation is groaning, waiting for it.

Psalm 66:3 says, ‘Say unto God, How terrible art Thou in Thy works! Through the greatness of Thy power shall Thine enemies submit themselves unto Thee’. It is through the greatness of the power of God, that the enemies will submit.

Power is released when we speak the Word of God with authority. As soon as the strangers hear our voice they will fade away out of their close places. As a child of God, you speak with power and authority to take charge of situations. When you are confronted, roar like a lion and all demons will steer clear. You must understand that your roar is no empty noise, rather it is indicative that you are born of God and the seed of God is in you.

We are in the days of His power. There is no room for spiritual weaklings. When confronted, you should know what to do. When attacked, you should know how to react. You can no longer afford to sit and watch the enemy run riot around you. Speak with authority and every devil must bow. It is power that ensures results when you speak. Therefore, if you speak and there is no result, check your power gauge! When you are living in purity and are connected to God’s Word, you will carry power because where the Word of a king is, there is power. The sons of Sceva spoke the words they heard Paul speak, but because they lacked power, the demons beat them up. The only language the devil bows to is the language of power.

Ensure you carry power so you can dominate; and that power is the power of the Holy Ghost. Jesus said you shall receive power after the Holy Spirit has come upon you. It is by the power of the Holy Spirit that we rule our world. We must take our place in God’s end time move. We must manifest the power of God to set the captives free. We are to preach the Gospel in the demonstration of the Spirit and power. This is God’s agenda for His Church for the hour. There is coming a great endtime harvest, which will precede the coming of the Lord. We must not forfeit this harvest  because we lack power. We cannot afford to disappoint Heaven. Let us therefore do what is required of us, because creation is waiting for the manifestation of the sons of God.

PRAYER: Father, please give me the grace to pay the required price to manifest Your  power; may I not miss my place in this end time army. May I rise and take spiritual responsibility in Jesus’ name.
