The Free Flow of Angelic Activities

The Free Flow of Angelic Activities
 
Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation? (Heb 1vs14). There is no way we can enter into the salvation that God has planned for us without understanding this salvation first. We need the ministering of angels in order to obtain our salvation. Therefore, the faith teaching in the scripture that says, ‘with the heart a man believes unto righteousness and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation’, can only be fulfilled through the ministration of angels.
This means there has to be angels ministering on the earth at all times in order for what we are saying, according to the scriptures, to come to pass. So when Jesus said, ‘whosoever shall say to this mountain be thou removed and be thou cast into the sea’ and the mountains will obey, literarily means it is the angels that go out to make it happen. For the bible tells us that they (angels) obey the commandments of God by harkening to the voice of His word. Therefore, any time people give voice to the word of God; angels obey and immediately respond to it.
But there is something about the ministry of angels that we have got to understand, and it deals with spiritual warfare in prayer. Many of us don’t clearly understand this, and that is why there is a lot of frustration when it comes to answers to prayer. A lot of people believe God for a season that something is done but then they are confronted with a lot of contradictory things happening within their physical environment. This creates doubts and fear inside their hearts and they lose grip of what they are persuaded in their heart God has done for them. This type of issue has a lot to do with spiritual warfare and in order to be able to understand and flow in the ministry of angels; we have got to understand this warfare within our heart, inside our spirit and how to deal with it.
Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and saith of him, Behold an Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile! Nathanael saith unto him, Whence knowest thou me? Jesus answered and said unto him, Before that Philip called thee, when thou wast under the fig tree, I saw thee. Nathanael answered and saith unto him, Rabbi, thou art the Son of God; thou art the King of Israel. Jesus answered and said unto him, Because I said unto thee, I saw thee under the fig tree, believest thou? Thou shalt see greater things than these. And he saith unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Hereafter ye shall see heaven open, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of man.(Jhn 1vs47-51). What Christ was saying in the above scripture was that because Nathaniel was able to recognize him through His word he will see greater and mightier things within his life. Through this scripture we are given a remarkable insight into the spiritual realm; that when we see great work and powerful manifestations in the life of a person, it is because the heavens are opened over the life of the person. This means there is a free flow of angelic activity over the life of that individual. So when you find a great man of God doing massive things on the earth, it is not because of his ability to brand or market, or ability to steal the ideas of people but simply because the heavens are opened over his life, and angels are able to ascend and descend. That is why immediately after Jesus spoke to Nathanael He went into the marriage feast and performed the miracle of turning water into wine, demonstrating the power of the ministry of angels to them. What Christ showed us in this miracle is the ability of what a man can do when the heaven is opened up to him.
Therefore, open heavens and the ministry of angels go hand in hand where answered prayers are concerned. For without one the other cannot function well. It is important for us to seek both in our prayers so that every word of scripture we speak into our lives can become effective and have its full operation where necessary.

Find Your Place and Stay There

Like a bird that wanders from its nest is a man who wanders from his place. Prov.27:8 (NIV) One of the greatest advantages you can have in life is to find your place early and stay there. The challenges of life come to us all, but you may just find it so overwhelming when you are not in your place, as compared to the person who has found their place. I am sure that you have come across one or two persons in life who excel and have an utter sense of fulfilment in what they do in life. It doesn’t have to be really big sometimes, but you can tell that they are in their place, where they should actually be. You may also have come across some persons whom you will consider clear misfits where they are, and in what they do. The latter set of people are most likely not to be prospering as they should, or I should say, they have potential to prosper more, if they find their place and stay there. The same is true about your life. Sometimes you need to take a step back and ask yourself if you ar...

Two Things to Avoid to be Prosperous

He also that is slothful in his work is brother to him that is a great waster. Prov.18:9 (KJV) In my last piece, I talked about the importance of finding your place, and staying there to command God’s Blessing. I emphasized the importance of staying power in whatever God has called you to do or committed to your hands. In this piece, I will seek to drive the conversation further, talking about two wrong attitudes that will greatly hinder the Blessing of God from finding expression in your life. Our text says the slothful is brother to a great waster, this is a very dangerous company indeed, and always a disaster waiting to happen. These two characters can never prosper and attain God’s highest Blessing. You may be working hard and making mistakes, but you must keep at it because, the man who tries and make mistakes will command the Blessing far more than the man who is slothful. God hates laziness! Laziness can disguise in many ways; a person can be spiritually lazy, and that...

Updated: Don’t Bind the Brook, Don’t Rebuke the Ravens - Simple Lesson in Obedience

  Over the years I have come to understand the place of simple obedience to the instructions of God, and the huge difference it could make in one’s life. I have also come to see how easy believers can be in disobedience, yet be able to cover up with some form of spiritual activity, then in the end attempt to pass on the responsibility for their failures on God.   This can possibly account for one of the biggest reasons why there are believers who seem not to be making progress in life in spite of their seeming spirituality. The situation is even more compounded when older believers who should set the example for younger believers fall into this group. The implication is that there will be a generation of young believers who cannot seem to find the proper alignment between the Christian faith and being productive in life.   The story of the prophet Elijah in 1 Kings 17, clearly illustrates my point.  The Word of the Lord had come to the prophet to camp by the bro...
