ADD GOD’S POWER TO YOUR NATURAL EFFORT

“The Spirit of the Lord shall rest upon Him, the Spirit of wisdom and understanding, the Spirit of counsel and might, the Spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the Lord. His delight is in the fear of the Lord, and He shall not judge by the sight of His eyes, nor decide by the hearing of His ears.”

Isaiah 11:2 - 3

There must be a very real transaction in the spirit realm with God’s power to make things real in your life. Faith is always connected to the power of God. Biblical faith connects human life to God’s power. God is the source of power. Your TV, fan and washing machine function because they are connected to a power source. When you remove the plug, they stop functioning. If you are faking life, it will only last for some time. So, you do not need to struggle to make it. God has given you all things that pertain to life and godliness. Let Him help you and He will.

Natural life is designed to work either naturally or by divine power. You can bring tradition or other power into it, but it will cost you your soul. What I am dealing with today is how to bring divine power to natural efforts. When most people talk about faith and the things of God, they assume that they would not do anything and believe that God is going to do everything for them. Remove and delete such a thought from your mind completely. God is not going to do things for you on His own without your participation.

What God does is to superimpose His power on your natural efforts. Until you surrender to His will and allow Him, your own effort will not take you far. 2 Chronicles 26:15 said Uzziah prospered because he was marvellously helped until he was strong, and his fame spread far.

Further Reading: 1 Kings 18:40-48, 2 Chronicles 26:1-18, Isaiah 11:2-3.

Prayer: Lord, I receive the superimposition of Your power upon my natural efforts for divine outcomes in my life, in Jesus’ name. Amen
