IT REQUIRES THE SUPERNATURAL

But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me… (Acts 1:8).

PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME Dsc. Dsc. DD.

Preaching the Gospel requires the supernatural. Notice I didn’t say the “spectacular” but the supernatural. The supernatural is that which is powered by the Spirit. The Spirit of God is in us and with us; He’s the power of our lives. Our sufficiency is in Him. 2 Corinthians 3:5-6 says, “Not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think anything as of ourselves; but our sufficiency is of God; who also hath made us able ministers of the new testament….” 

The ministry you’ve been called into is the ministry of the Spirit, entrusted to you by the Spirit Himself. Without Him, you cannot fulfil it; but with Him, nothing is impossible. This is why your relationship with Him is absolutely vital.

As much as God wanted the early disciples to go out and preach the Gospel, He gave them a profound instruction: “And, behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with power from on high” (Luke 24:49). The empowerment came just as promised in Acts 2:1-4, when they were filled with the Holy Spirit.

From that moment, everything changed; it became dynamic evangelism. They preached the Gospel with boldness and demonstrated the power of God through miracles, signs, and wonders by the Holy Spirit. Hallelujah!

The message He gave us is one that’s humanly difficult to believe without the supernatural. In fact, it was easier for those in Bible days to believe it than it is for people today, but even then, they still needed the supernatural. How much more, therefore, do we need it in our day! We need the proof of our message. And our heavenly Father is fully aware of this and has already made the necessary provisions.

You’re not the one trying to convince God to give you proof; He’s the one telling you that you need it. He’s the one offering it. Many pray, “O God, I want to preach the Gospel with power,” but He already knows that. He’s the one stirring that desire in your heart. So, pay attention as He guides you in the steps to take.

Having received the Holy Spirit, you now have the power to be an effective witness, a proof-producer, just as we read in our opening scripture. Trust His grace at work in your life. Trust His Word. When He speaks to you and gives you guidance in your heart, receive it. His guidance is always supernatural, even when it may not appear outwardly spectacular.

 PRAYER 

In the Name of the Lord Jesus, I function always in the power of the Spirit. I’m yielded to the Holy Spirit who inspires my thoughts, words, and confirms my message with miraculous signs and wonders. I’m a dispenser of divine power and solutions. Through me, lives are transformed and nations are impacted, by the Spirit of God. Amen.

FURTHER STUDY

Zechariah 4:6 NKJV; So he answered and said to me: “This is the word of the Lord to Zerubbabel: ‘Not by might nor by power, but by My Spirit,’ Says the Lord of hosts.

1 Corinthians 2:4-5 AMPC; 1 And my language and my message were not set forth in persuasive (enticing and plausible) words of wisdom, but they were in demonstration of the [Holy] Spirit and power [a proof by the Spirit and power of God, operating on me and stirring in the minds of my hearers the most holy emotions and thus persuading them], So that your faith might not rest in the wisdom of men (human philosophy), but in the power of God.

Acts 14:3 NIV So Paul and Barnabas spent considerable time there, speaking boldly for the Lord, who confirmed the message of his grace by enabling them to perform signs and wonders.

MONDAY, 14TH JULY 2025 THE VIRGIN BIRTH CONFIRMS HIS DEITY   Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us  (Matthew 1:23). PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME    When we say Jesus Christ is deity, we’re affirmingthat He is God. This claim is significant, especially when you consider that many around the world view Jesus merely as a prophet or a great teacher. While it may seem respectful for some to call Him a great prophet or a remarkable teacher, these assertions fall far short of His true identity.    That’s the reason it’s important to understand who He really is by first examining the miracle of His birth. TheBible describes His birth as extraordinary, something that had never occurred in all of history. Matthew 1:18 says, “Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with c...

 THURSDAY, JULY 31TH 2025 OUR UNIQUE ASSIGNMENTS IN THE MILLENNIUM Behold, a king shall reign in righteousness, and princes shall rule in judgment. And a man shall be as an hiding place from the wind, and a covert from the tempest; as rivers of water in a dry place, as the shadow of a great rock in a weary land (Isaiah 32:1-2). PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME  Our theme scripture is prophetic about the Millennium. The latter part alludes to the unique role we (the Church) would be playing in the millennial reign, when Israel takes center stage. The millennial reign of Christ is not for the Church. It’s for Israel. So, what are we, the Church, going to be doing then? We're going to be carrying out angelic assignments. Our role at the millennial reign of Christ is very different from what a lot of people think; it’s going to be much like what the angels do today in ministering for us. In that day, the Jews will walk in the Millennial blessings that characterize the life of the saints wh...
