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.

Stretch

Isa. 54:2 “Enlarge the place of your tent, And let them stretch out the curtains of your dwellings; Do not spare; Lengthen your cords, And strengthen your stakes. The concept of stretching is very important for anyone who desires to make any meaningful progress in life. God has so designed everything in a manner that makes it almost impossible to make progress without any stretch. Even the human body grows by this same concept. It has been revealed that for a muscle to grow, it must first undergo "micro-tears." When you lift a weight that is slightly too heavy, the muscle fiber stretches and tears. It is only in the repair of those tears that the muscle becomes larger and stronger than before. If there is no tension, there is no transformation. The "pain" of the stretch is actually the signal that growth is happening. So If the human body grows by stretching, it follows to say that to reach anything significant in this life, we must stretch. God will always require ...

Resist The Pressure to Perform

A quote often attributed to Abraham Lincoln says, "If I had six hours to chop down a tree, I'd spend the first four hours sharpening the axe." Yet we live in a time when everyone seems to be more concerned with how quickly they can cut down their own tree than with whether their axe is sharp enough to get the job done. This reflects the intense pressure to perform that many of us face every day. When I speak of the pressure to perform, I am not referring only to workplace demands, but to the pressure we experience in our personal lives to produce visible results. Pressure can be a good thing when it is properly managed. It can motivate us to grow, improve, and reach our goals. However, when left unchecked, it can become destructive. One of the surest ways to manage the pressure to perform is by refusing to let the success of others become a source of unhealthy pressure in your own life. If you allow that to happen, you do yourself a great disservice. It is only natural to...
