Ephesians 3:20 ‘Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us.’
DAILY READING: John 5:19-47; 1 Chronicles 20:1-22:1; Zechariah8
The British evangelist, Smith Wigglesworth greatly manifested the power of God wherever he went. He was often invited to minister in several countries across the globe.
When he was invited to minister in Sweden, his preaching was accompanied with amazing manifestations of power, diverse healings and miracles.
However, these divine healings so angered some of the doctors and religious people that they wrote a petition to the Swedish parliament. This resulted in Wigglesworth being forbidden to touch the people or to lay hands on them in public for their healing.
This proved to be a challenge because Wigglesworth usually laid hands on people when praying for them.
Soon after being given this order, he went to minster at a crusade where an estimated crowd of at least 20,000 people had gathered to hear him and receive healings.
Swedish government authorities also came to this meeting to arrest Wigglesworth if he tried to lay hands on anyone.
Faced with this dilemma Wigglesworth prayed for divine guidance and God gave him wisdom on what to do. After ministering he said to the sick people, “Now each one lay hands on himself and I’m going to pray that the Lord will heal you.” As they laid their hands on the afflicted parts of their bodies, Wigglesworth prayed a simple prayer of faith. The power of God moved mightily through the crowd and there were diverse manifestations of divine healings.
The government authorities that had come to arrest him were flabbergasted. They could not indict him for breaking the law and yet people had been miraculously healed right before their eyes.
Indeed God is infinite. God is all-powerful, all-knowing, all-capable. There is no limit to what He can do.
Though the enemy and his agents may try to hinder God’s working in the lives of believers, the truth remains that God can never be limited. He is able to do exceedingly, abundantly above what anyone could think or imagine.
No man can stop or limit God when He arises to work in your life. God can break through any barrier and certainly turn a “no way” into a highway!
When the children of Israel moved to the Promised land, the wall of Jericho stood as a barrier on their journey. However, they were able to bring down this mighty wall through listening and obeying the voice of God.
Anytime you encounter a wall, a barrier or hindrance to your progress, you need to take time to hear God’s divine instruction to you.
Barriers are inevitable in life’s journey. Anyone headed to the Promised land will certainly encounter some walls of Jericho. It’s all a part of destiny.
However, to overcome these hindrances, we need divine guidance.
We need to make deliberate efforts to hear God through taking time to diligently study the Word, pray and fellowship with the Spirit.
Revelations from God will lead to revolutions in your life. His Word is the rod with which you can do signs and wonders.
Anytime we hear and obey God’s Word, His power arises to crush the oppositions on our path.
By the Blood of Jesus, we are guaranteed victory over life’s hindrances and barriers. Redemption has positioned us to be unstoppable no matter the schemes of the enemy.
Certainly, by the power in the Blood you cannot be stopped by the barriers of sickness, poverty, barrenness, delays etc.
Indeed, through the Blood, we can break through every barrier and triumph over every trial.
PRAYER: Lord, I thank You for granting me Your guidance and wisdom to overcome every barrier I may face. I thank You for moving supernaturally in my life in this season and doing exceedingly above all I could ever ask or imagine, in Jesus’ Name.
