Luke 24:49

⭕️God has a desire to release His promise.

⭕️The coming of the Holy Spirit does not necessarily imply that power has come outside you, it is like having a generator delivered to your doorstep.

⭕️When a generator is on your premises, it means power has potentially come.

⭕️It takes you running the generator to have power to use for whatever purposes you want.

⭕️Empowerment is us having power in our lives in order to have certain things done.

⭕️When you see a car running, it is because it has been empowered.

⭕️Whether it uses petrol, diesel or electricity, the concept is the same: empowerment.

⭕️In the absence of empowerment, the car that can take you to Lusaka will be outside and you will be stranded.

⭕️Life is a risk without empowerment.

⭕️Once we are born again, to fulfill destiny without empowerment is a risk.

⭕️This is why today, so many wrong things are happening in the body of Christ.

⭕️For you to be convicted of your sins and know that you need a saviour requires empowerment.

⭕️When there is no power in the church, people will be living however they want.

⭕️There is an upcoming generation that is at risk of not knowing the God that this generation and others before knew.

⭕️The power that the Holy Spirit brings to Christianity is what separates it from other religions.

⭕️The purpose of the Holy Spirit is to make the believer understand the ways of God and empower Him to walk in them.

⭕️The Holy Spirit is like the system that burns fuel in a car to make mobility possible.

⭕️The Holy Spirit is supposed to teach us the culture of heaven.

⭕️The Holy Spirit is the administrator of the kingdom of God on earth.

⭕️He will teach the believer:

 1)to understand that he is a child of God. 

 2)to direct his attention to the matters of heaven (Colossians 3:1).

 3) to prepare to rule (behave, think, talk, etc.) (Proverbs 8:8-10, 16)

 ⭕️ Wisdom is how heaven does things.

 ⭕️Wisdom makes possibilities.

⭕️The Holy Spirit teaches us the culture of heaven (what God wants) and empowers us to do it (Ezekiel 36:26-27).

⭕️If you are not empowered to do what God wants, you cannot do it.

⭕️Without spiritual empowerment you can’t please God and serve Him.

⭕️You phone, with all the apps on it that can make your life easy, is useless if it does not have power and that is just how a born-again christian is.

⭕️All the things that you could potentially do in Christ come alive when you receive empowerment.

John 1:12, Psalm 62:11

⭕️There is need for an empowerment in order to become anything that God has promised in the kingdom.

⭕️We must understand that until we have interacted with God, we will not be empowered.

⭕️When we talk about spiritual empowerment, we are talking about interacting with God.

⭕️There are two principal ways we can interact with God to have power.

⭕️These are the WORD OF GOD and PRAYER.

Acts 6:4, 1 Corinthians 4:20, Ezekiel 2:2

⭕️When the word of God  is spoken or you are reading scripture with the help of the Spirit, power is released.

⭕️If a man is not reading the word of God, He is not getting empowered.

⭕️If a man is not praying, He is not getting empowered.

⭕️The highest form of empowerment is the word of God.

⭕️When you are listening to speakings, the Spirit behind the speakings enters you.

⭕️If you are not empowered, you will be defeated.

⭕️You have to make a choice about what kind of christian you want to be.

1 Corinthians 4:20

⭕️It is possible to have faith in human wisdom.

⭕️What will make you have faith in God is power.

⭕️Empowerment is a personal responsibility.

⭕️That you are not empowered doesn’t mean your neighbour isn’t also empowered, everyone must take responsibility for themselves.

⭕️You cannot use last year’s power in this year, you will fail.

⭕️Who has a phone whose battery never drains?

⭕️Power gets drained with usage and that is why you have to recharge it.

⭕️Jesus continually empowered Himself.

⭕️God wants the best for you but there are forces that say, “never!”

⭕️Without power, there is no submission of the enemy.

⭕️Without power, the enemy will stand in your way.

⭕️Live a casual life and you will be a casualty in life and destiny.

⭕️The devil is after you that professed that you are child of God.

⭕️He is interested in making you nothing so that others cannot learn from your life.

⭕️We need to constantly renew our strength; you cannot rely on the strength of yesterday.

⭕️To prosper in this kingdom requires empowerment.

Luke 11:21

⭕️The land God promised the children of Israel was not empty, there were giants they needed to drive out.

⭕️If you are not empowered to deal with giants, your portion will remain in their hands.

⭕️The devil is resisting you because he knows that once you break into that realm, you will stay there.

⭕️Once you step into the miraculous, you will work miracles all the time, but the battle to get there is fierce.

⭕️If Jericho doesn’t fall, the rest of your promised land will remain intact.

⭕️The battle for Jericho is stronger than the battle for the other cities.

⭕️Satan wants you to move away from your place of safety so that he can hit you.

⭕️God doesn’t need to explain so much to us, we just need to believe Him.

⭕️Satan is deceiving you because he wants the evil pattern that has been repeated in you family to be repeated through you.

Luke 10:19, Acts 1:8

⭕️There is a power that challenges the power of the enemy, by any means.

⭕️You are not qualified to be a witness of God if you have not encountered Him.

⭕️Until Moses met God he was not ready to witness for God in Egypt.

⭕️The ways of God produce the acts of God.

⭕️When you encounter God, you become a man of the ways of God.

⭕️Anytime there is need for a display of power, you will display it.

Exodus 7:9-12

⭕️We live in a generation where we love to show off when we have no substance, where we love to copy.

⭕️In life we rule by power (Psalm 110:1-3)

⭕️We need power to walk with the Lord.

⭕️In the absence of power, you will backslide.

⭕️The willingness of people, including your helpers, to go along with you is a function of power.

⭕️Favour will not be on you if you are not empowered.

⭕️People who are not empowered are favourless people.

⭕️To meet God is favour (Psalm 65:4).

⭕️The secret of empowerment is in DWELLING.

⭕️Visiting and dwelling are two different things.

Psalm 91:1

⭕️Dwelling speaks of permanency.

⭕️Those who visit God never get empowered.

⭕️Those who want to use God to get things don’t get empowered.

⭕️Only those who can stay long, last in the presence of God are the ones who get empowered.

⭕️Jesus prayed all manner of prayers, long, short and other kinds of prayers.

⭕️The word of God must also come to a point where it dwells in us for it to produce empowerment.

⭕️In dealing with spirits, they want you to commit yourself to them other than you making a program for them.

⭕️Tarry means wait.

⭕️If you don’t tarry, you won’t carry.

⭕️2024 is very long and has a lot of problems. Some will carry power that will help them this year.

⭕️Empowerment will cause you to see what others can’t see.

⭕️When you are not empowered, you will be among those talking ill of those that are empowered, and suspecting them.

⭕️Without power, your heart will grow cold towards God.

⭕️It is power that makes you desire God.

⭕️Empowerment from God will make you defy all the evil patterns that have been set in your family.

⭕️You can make satan to be a liar by empowerment.

⭕️Don’t be deceived with the little you think you have; you don’t know tomorrow.

⭕️When God says disaster is coming on the earth, it is coming.

⭕️Exemption comes through empowerment.

⭕️Something worse than COVID is coming on the earth.

⭕️Only a personal encounter with God will help you.

⭕️As you get empowered, something is happening to your character, you are getting empowerment to resist certain things.

⭕️Empowerment is like light, you will know where to go, what to do and who you should meet.

⭕️One of the greatest ingredients we can get from God is favour.

⭕️When you are favoured, your life is flavoured.
