Supernatural Empowerment

 Matthew 3:11

John the Baptist was clear about it, the baptism of Jesus is superior and better than his own.

John baptized with water, which is good, but Jesus baptizes with the Holy Spirit and fire which is better.

God has something better for you!

God is a God who always has something better.

Isaiah 60:17

Baptism empowers spiritually, baptism empowers supernaturally.

God has made provision for your empowerment.

The Father did so through Jesus Christ.

A part of the reason Jesus came is to empower you.

Jesus came that you may be blessed, to be blessed is to be empowered to succeed.

We are empowered through a baptism into Jesus Christ.

It was after John's water baptism the heavens opened and the Holy Spirit alighted upon Jesus in the manner of a dove.

Luke 3:21,22

Jesus was empowered supernaturally to fulfill His ministry and destiny after He was baptized.

Luke 3:23

The baptism of Jesus Christ (with the Holy Spirit and fire) empowers you to fulfill your life's assignment and destiny.

Jesus performed His first miracle after being empowered by the Spirit.

John 2:1-11

Jesus defeated Satan and rejected his temptations after He was empowered by the Spirit.

Matthew 4

The ministry of Jesus started officially after being empowered by the Spirit.

Matthew 4:16 & 17

Everything Jesus did you can potentially do when you are empowered by God.

There is a promise of doing greater works by us.

John 14:12

We have to be empowered to do these greater works.

The empowerment of Jesus makes us win in life and through eternity.

It is an empowerment that brings a positive transformation to a human life.

This empowerment can make you a new man or woman.

There are man-made ways of empowering ourselves in this world outside of God's empowerment.

There are also Satanic ways of being empowered, it comes about by yielding to Satan (the darks side). It leads to destruction.

Both types of empowerment cannot compare to the empowerment from God, which is kingdom empowerment, the empowerment from Jesus Christ by His Spirit!

Man's way of empowering himself may not be bad in itself- training, education, skill acquisition, self-help teachings, success motivation, and mentorship.

To be empowered by God is better.

The empowerment from God can enhance the empowerment acquired from man.

Your Father Hears

Matthew 6:5,6 Prayer should be directed to the Father. Jesus showed this when He taught His disciples the Lord's prayer. It should be a great comfort to you to know that the creator and God of all hears you when you pray. This should encourage you to pray and keep praying. In our day to day relationships with people our communication will reduce towards those who don't pay attention when we're talking to them. The good thing about God is that He is never distracted. Know you have His attention when you pray . He can be communicated with. He hears, He created the ears. Psalm 94:9 Jesus encouraged prayer. Matthew 26:40 Jesus taught prayer. Luke 11:1,2 If Jesus prayed, you will need to pray. Why Should You Pray? *Pray because prayer brings God's intervention. Isaiah 38:5,6 *Pray because that's how you are authorized to communicate with God. 1 Thessalonians 15:16-18 *Pray because it is a major way of birthing God's will on earth. 1 Kings 18...

Out Of The Ashes

Isaiah 61:3 Ashes are not seen as useful substances. Ashes are waste that's thrown away. Ashes are what is left after a substance is burnt out. Your life may seem like ashes right now but something good and beautiful can come out of it when it's given to God. You may feel like an ash yourself. You may be feeling burnt out from unpleasant experiences of the past, the previous week, the last Month , or the the last year and life's battles may have left you burnt out. Know that out of your ashes can come beauty! God is the one who gives us beauty for ashes. God can make you and your life beautiful! Don't make the ashes your permanent state. God can make your season of ashes work out into a season of glory for you. Romans 8:28 The phoenix is a mystical and fictional bird that burns out after living for about six centuries. After burning itself out it rises from it's ashes renewed, youthful and revitalized to live through another life cycle. Like the p...
