Topic: The Manifestations of God
Text: Acts 4:33
In Acts of the Apostles 4:33, the Scripture says and with great power gave the apostles witness of the resurrection of Jesus, and great grace was upon them. In Hebrews 2:4, the Bible says God also bearing witness both with signs and wonders, with diverse miracles and gifts of the Holy Spirit according to his own will. God is said to be a witness to the authority and the power of the name of His Son Jesus, with various signs and wonders, diverse miracles, and gifts of the Holy Spirit according to his will. We want to create the atmosphere for these miracles, an atmosphere for the supernatural.
How do we create a conducive environment and atmosphere for the Spirit of God to manifest Himself, to make his will known, to make signs and wonders and diverse miracles and gifts of the Holy Ghost happen for everyone who believes in Him? The God factor is the most important factor for success, victory, breakthrough, and miracles. God is the doer of miracles. Miracles are products of God’s presence and His will by the help of the Holy Spirit.
No matter how bad a situation may be, when God comes around, a turnaround becomes inevitable. No matter how terrible your case may be as an individual, I want to remind you, all that the situation needs is God coming down. In Genesis 1:2-3, the Bible says, In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. The heart was without form and void. Darkness was upon the face of the deep and the spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. God said. God showed up. The darkness, the emptiness, and the void of the earth disappeared.
God cannot show up and a man’s situation will remain the same. God has promised to show up this week long at the ten days at Shiloh program. God’s desire, counsel, and mind will make diverse miracles happen. When God shows up, a turnaround becomes inevitable. The manifestation of the Almighty is what we call grace, miracles, signs, and wonders. When God shows up, when God manifests himself, there is prosperity in adversity a man begins to prosper even in adverse situations. I want you to get set, no matter how adverse the situation may be, when God shows up, when he manifests Himself, there will be a divine turnaround and there will be prosperity in that adverse situation.
Exodus, chapter 1:12, the Bible says the more that the children of Israel were persecuted and afflicted by the Egyptians, the more they multiplied numerically. God’s presence causes his people to multiply in adversity. In these 10 days at Shiloh, God intends to put upon our lives the grace and mercy for multiplication, increase, and prosperity even in adverse situations of life.
In our country at present, we are experiencing adversity, the condition is adverse. But the Lord will cause his people to prosper even in the adverse circumstances or situations of the hour. Joseph prospered as a slave. God caused him to prosper. He prospered because God was with him. The manifestation of the presence of God in a man’s life is prosperity in any given situation. Genesis 39:2, and the Lord was with Joseph and he was a prosperous man in the house of his master, the Egyptians.
Another manifestation of the Almighty is the humiliation of impossibilities, the presence of God, in these 10 days at Shiloh intends to humiliate every form of impossibility. Whatever situation might be termed an impossibility in your life, God is set to terminate it. In Genesis 21:1-2, the Bible says that the Lord visited Sarah as he had said. And the Lord did for Sarah as he had spoken for Sarah conceived and bore Abram a son in his old age, at the set time of which God had spoken to him. Sarah was married, but barren for many years. And at this point, at age 90, God showed up for Sarah. He manifested himself. It was impossible case that a 90-year-old woman will get pregnant and have a baby. But God humiliated impossibility and made it happen for Sarah. I do not know that impossible situation in your life, in your family, or around you. God is set to terminate that impossibility to show to you that there is no impossibility with God. It could be impossible with man, but not with God.
There is no impossibility with God at all. In the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ according to St. Luke 1:34-37, the angel of the Lord was speaking to Mary. When Mary asked How can this thing be since I do not know a man? The angel answered and said the Holy Spirit will come upon you and the power of the highest will overshadow you, and there will be the birthing of a Holy One in you. Indeed Elizabeth, your relative has also conceived a son in her old age. And this is not the 6th month for her who was called barren. For with God, nothing will be impossible. Elizabeth was called barren. Her case was an impossible situation, but there is no impossibility with God. It was the 6th month for her who was called barren. Men called her barren, but God said no, your case is not closed. God turned things around. The manifestation of the Almighty made this barren woman a joyful mother of a child.
What is that impossibility in your life and family? Again I ask it to be humiliated. God will show Himself strong and mighty on your behalf. Get set for the hands of the Lord that turn things around and make impossibilities possible. It will be possible. The Lord will make it happen. Let us pray.
Prayer Focus
1. Father cause me to prosper and make progress even in the adverse situation of the hour. Let me make progress. Let me prosper in adversity. Let me make progress by the power of your spirit in the name of Jesus.
2. Father, let every form of impossibility in my life and destiny be terminated today in the name of Jesus.
3. Father, you visited Sarah, visit me also. Tell him the areas you want Him to visit you.
4. Elizabeth was called barren, but God visited her and gave her a miracle. I’d like you to pray, Father. Give me a miracle that will reverse every negative name, that life, situation, society, and circumstances have called me.
