Shalom,
Today's "Faith Food" devotional by Kenneth E. Hagin is a powerful reminder of OUR responsibility concerning the Word of God and answered prayer!
Limiting GodYea, they turned back and tempted God, and limited the Holy One of Israel. . . . . — PSALM 78:41
Can you limit God? The Bible says Israel did. And we have limited Him.
We have limited God with our prayer life.
John Wesley, founder of Methodism, said, “It seems God is limited by
our prayer life. He can do nothing for humanity unless someone asks
Him to do it.”
Why is that?
God made the world and the fullness thereof. Then God made man and
gave him dominion over all the works of His hands. Adam was made
the god of this world. However, Adam committed high treason and sold
out to Satan. Then Satan became the god of this world (2 Corinthians 4:4).
God didn’t just move in and destroy Satan. If He had, Satan could have
accused God of doing the same thing he had done. But God devised a
plan of salvation. And He sent His Son, whom Satan could not and did
not touch, to consummate that plan. Through Jesus, God redeemed
mankind!
Now authority has been restored to us through Jesus Christ — and
when we ask God, then He can and will move. That is why it seems He
can do nothing unless someone asks Him to do it.
Confession: I take my place in prayer. I join forces with my Father in carrying out His will upon the earth!
AMEN! Let's be "about our Father's business" and be a BLESSING to HIM! Here is Hillsong with "That's The Power":
Shalom in Him!
