Topic:VARIOUS WEAPONS AT YOUR DISPOSAL
Memorise: O clap your hands, all ye people; shout unto God with the voice of
triumph. Psalm 47:1-3
Bible in one year: Esther 4-7, John 9:13-34
One of the spiritual weapons at the disposal of God’s children is
shouting. All that the children of Israel did to pull down the formidable walls
of Jericho was to shout. The Bible in Joshua 6:20 says:
“So the people shouted when the priests blew with
the trumpets: and it came to pass, when the people heard the sound of the
trumpet, and the people shouted with a great shout, that the wall fell down
flat, so that the people went up into the city, every man straight before him,
and they took the city.”
Do you know that you can utilise the weapon of shouting to receive your
miracle or breakthrough? Some years ago, a woman was brought to us at the
headquarters of our church. She complained that for years, whenever she ate,
she vomited. The doctors had tried all they could to help her retain the food
she ate, but nothing worked. It was so bad that even when she drank water, she
would vomit it. When she was brought in, I told everyone to shout Hallelujah!
As she did, she vomited a worm, and that was the end of her sickness. As you
shout Hallelujah this season, you shall receive your miracle in Jesus’ Name.
Furthermore, another weapon available to believers in Christ is the
Name of Jesus. That Name is so highly exalted that everything, everyone and
every power everywhere must blow to it (Philippians 2:9-11). It is amazing to
know that when some Christians go through a serious situation that needs divine
intervention, they call on the names of their father or mother but not on the
Name of Jesus, the only One who can help them. In Acts 16:16-18, a demon
possessed girl who followed Paul and Silas around, was immediately delivered
after they commanded the demon to leave her in the Name of Jesus. Recently, I
was about to enter my car while going to minister to my children after a Holy
Communion service, when a particular girl ran towards me screaming. I asked my
personal assistant to allow her come near. The fellow who brought her said
while she was at her station of primary assignment to national youth service,
something happened to her which made her lose her voice. Her voice was
completely cut out. On a piece of paper, she wrote that the demon said that the
only person who could send him out was Pastor Adeboye. So I prayed a simple
prayer in the Name of Jesus, and before I ended the prayer, she voiced out
“Amen”. As I turned to enter my car, she was audibly shouting “Daddy, daddy”.
My son said to me “Daddy, she is already speaking.” I just smiled. Use the Name
of Jesus more often. Apply His Name in all that you do. When you do so, do it
in faith and ensure you are not living in sin.
Action Point:If you really believe in the power in the Name of Jesus, use it to
confront your mountains.
