ARE YOU NEGLECTING YOUR ROLE?

 Are You Neglecting Your Role? 

“Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.” Ephesians 6:10 (KJV).

There was one particular day I entered my room and was met by thick darkness. I was thinking of what to do till it donned on me that I had a switch on the wall. Upon turning on the switch, the whole room lit with exuberance. There was power flowing through the circuit, but without turning on the switch the power could not be accessed for light energy. This is the picture Apostle Paul is painting in the opening scripture. Dear beloved, the Holy Spirit is the power you need to accomplish any task, but until you cooperate with Him and play your role as a child of God, you will never be successful in your calling or any task you want to accomplish (Acts 1:8). Thus, being strong in the Lord, and in the power of the Holy Spirit, is our responsibility. Beloved, you can only be strong in the Lord when you abide in His Word, and His Word abides in you through meditation on the Word day and night (John 15:4–7). Second, make time to pray for yourself and intercede for others as well; praying in tongues is very critical in building yourself in Him (1 Corinthians 14:4). Be conscious to also fast in order to build up your spiritual senses. Then, finally, learn to fellowship with other believers in like faith to draw inspiration from them, because iron sharpens iron (Proverbs 27:17). Beloved, allow the Holy Spirit to lead and guide you in what we have discussed, and you will always be strong to continually triumph in every good endeavor. Hallelujah! Glory to God!

Prayer Point: My loving and gracious Father, thank You for Your timely Word today. I’m ready to put all that You have said in Your Word to practice, in order to be strong to triumph in every good endeavor. Please lead me to help other brethren to also be strong in You after I have gained the strength in You in Jesus’ name. Amen!
