Asa Alonzo Allen started out in ministry during the great depression, which was a time of economic hardship in America. To supplement his meager income as a pastor, he chopped wood and sold it.
It was during this time that Allen learned the power of prayer. When he prayed before his meetings, he found the number of attendees dramatically multiplied.
In the late 1930s Allen accepted a pastorate at the Tower Assembly of God in Holly Colorado. It was while there Allen’s spirit was pricked to seek the secret of God’s power through fasting and praying. But fasting was new to Allen and he had great difficulty in following through.
One day he planned to go on a long fast but few hours later he changed his mind and sat down to eat. But after the first spoonful, he felt so strongly convicted by the Holy Spirit that he abandoned the food and went back to his prayer closet. In the course of this prayer and fasting, he had a divine visitation from God and from that encounter he received the power to heal the sick and cast out devils. And thus began the mighty manifestations of power that led to his outstanding ministry. God used him to usher in a mighty move of the Spirit that swept the American nation with powerful miracles, signs and wonders. A.A Allen built a far-reaching worldwide ministry, comprising an international radio program, Bible school and ministry training center, as well as overseas missions programs.
The mighty manifestations in Allen’s ministry only came about because he became willing to pay the price for power.
The power of God is desired by many but only experienced by the few who pay the price for it. As believers we are required to seek the manifestation of God’s power in our lives. The entire world is waiting for our manifestation; not our explanations.
Especially in these last days, we need unction to function. Anyone who must fulfill destiny must be empowered because the forces of darkness have no respect for your title, education or background; they only fear the power of God at work in your life. It is through the greatness of God’s power in you that every enemy submits. Certainly, the kingdom of God is not in words but in power. Therefore let us go for power! Let us determine, to seek God until we begin to experience tangible manifestations of His power in our lives.
God said in Jeremiah 29:13-14 ‘And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart. And I will be found of you, saith the LORD: and I will turn away your captivity’
Indeed when we seek God with all our heart we will find Him. And when we find Him there shall be a reward and our expectations shall not be cut off.
In this season as we separate ourselves in prayer and fasting to seek God, let us determine to experience a fresh encounter with His power that will cause us to truly break forth on every side and achieve extraordinary results this year.
PRAYER: Lord, Please help me to pay the price to encounter Your Power in this season. Please deliver me from every distraction and enable me to daily draw closer to You, so as to experience the mighty flow of Your Spirit in my life in Jesus Name.
