COMMANDING THE SUPERNATURAL – 1

Better than good greetings, in Jesus’ most colourful name!

Without any doubt, I am sure that you’re cresting on in the SUPERNATURAL, & that’ll be your perpetual lifestyle, in Jesus’ most colourful name!

Today, at KDCG, we commenced a new series of teachings in our Sunday Holy Ghost service, titled:

COMMANDING THE SUPERNATURAL!

I believe the teaching of God’s Word will be a great blessing to you, producing BETTER THAN GOOD encounters, in Jesus’ most colourful name!

The supernatural is the natural habitat of the child of God – John 3.8(Amplified version):

8 “The wind blows (breathes) where it wills; and though you hear its sound, yet you neither know where it comes from nor where it is going. So it is with everyone who is born of the Spirit”.

The child of God is unfathomable, can’t be predicted to be disturbed by the forces of darkness because of who he is & where he is from – Isaiah 33.16(New Living Translation):

These are the ones who will dwell on high. The rocks of the mountains will be their fortress of safety. Food will be supplied to them & they will have water in abundance”.

Isaiah 33.16(Amplified version):

16 “[Such a man] will dwell on the heights; his place of defense will be the fortresses of rocks; his bread will be given him; water for him will be sure”.

Everything about the child of God has been programmed for the SUPERNATURAL!

Sometime ago, about Easter season like where are approaching, one of the Deacons in the Ministry we were then approached me to pray over the foundation of a building he was starting.

About three months later, surprisingly, he presented, me with a brand new car gift, after he had roofed the house.

According to him, in his thirty five years of service in a federal government agency as a senior officer, he had attempted building 3 houses but they never got beyond window level before abandonment.

So, to him, it was a miracle that in three months, he was able to roof that building, & by God’s grace, resources to completion was sure.

There was this lady also, a lecturer in one of the higher institutions in the city where we were, who was undertaking a building project.

In the course of a Sunday morning service, she heard me say that to borrow money to build a house isn’t necessary as God is the One Who builds houses for people.

She said in her story, that I said in case anyone is at the point of taking a loan, such a one should stop the process.

So, she went back to the cooperative society in the school where she was processing the loan to stop the process.

The officer in charge there was said to be surprised & asked that in Nigeria, how can someone successfully do any meaningful project without borrowing?

The sister replied her that her Pastor preached in church the previous day that loans aren’t necessary & that God will do it.

There was a man there, a moslem, who was listening to their conversation, & at that point, he chipped in that what the sister’s Pastor is teaching them was right.

He told them that of the four houses he built, he didn’t take any facility.

When she took me to the building project site to pray for her & over it, it was a huge project but glory be to our faithful Father, Who completed it for her without stress.

Beloved, you need to be so conscious of who you are, where you’re from & know  all forces at your disposal, if you must not live like ordinary people.

From John 3.16, & Isaiah 33.16 quoted earlier, it is very clear that the SUPERNATURAL separates & differentiates you from the unbeliever!

An unbeliever may even accomplish some things but with much stress while the believing believer will accomplish things without stress!

That’s the way our Father has ordained it for us in Jesus!

How then do you command the SUPERNATURAL?

First, you must understand that in this Kingdom, every principle is founded on the Word & produce by the Word, so your  heart connection with God’s Word is the strong bedrock of the SUPERNATURAL – Mark 16.20(Amplified version):

20 “And they went out and preached everywhere, while the Lord kept working with them and confirming the message by the attesting signs and miracles that closely accompanied [it]. Amen (so be it)”.

Mark 16.20(Wycliffe New Testament):

“And they went forth, and preached every where, for the Lord wrought with them, and confirmed the word with signs following. [Soothly they gone forth preached every where, the Lord working with, and confirming the word with signs following”.]

Without the WORD OF GOD, there’s nothing for the Lord to confirm with signs & miracles!

Anywhere you see the snail, as long as it’s alive & to be fruitful, the shell is always on its back, it can’t be separated from the shell.

Anywhere you see the monkey also, it’s tail is always following behind, there’s no separating them.

Likewise, in the realm of the SUPERNATURAL, it’s practically impossible to separate it from the Word of God.

The supernatural has been divinely factored into the Word of God for manifestation.

John 1.1-5(Weymouth’s New Testament translation):

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God”.

2 “He was in the beginning with God”.

3 “All things came into being through Him, and apart from Him nothing that exists came into being”.

4 “In Him was Life, and that Life was the Light of men”.

5 The Light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overpowered it.

Apostle Paul helped our understanding here when he asked the Galatian church this question, Galatians 3.5(New Living Translation): “…does God… work MIRACLES among you because you obey the law of Moses? Of course NOT! It is because you BELIEVE THE MESSAGE(THE WORD) YOU HEARD ABOUT CHRIST”.

I was lecturing in the Bible School in Yola(Northern Nigeria), & a Deacon there heard me talk about getting your miracle by speaking forth the Word.

I even asked the students to demonstrate, for those who want cars, maybe Mercedes Benz, how they’ll drive it, & this Deacon did.

Not up to three months after, he bought his Mercedes Benz car ridiculously cheap!

In working of MIRACLES, the WORD OF GOD is the constant active ingredient.

You don’t beg for miracles as a child of God, rather you WORK out MIRACLES!

You don’t wait for MIRACLES, you WORK MIRACLES! – 1 Corinthians 12.10(KJV):

“To another, the WORKING OF MIRACLES…”.

Your relationship with God’s Word determines your MIRACULOUS lifestyle – 2 Corinthians 4.13(NIV):

“It is written: “I believed; therefore I have spoken.

With that same spirit of faith we also believe and therefore speak”,…

What happens when you speak God’s Word in any particular situation in which you desire the SUPERNATURAL?

When you speak God’s Word in faith, angels go to work to bring about the MIRACULOUS – Psalm 103.20(AMPLIFIED version):

20 “Bless (affectionately, gratefully praise) the Lord, you His angels, you mighty ones who do His commandments, hearkening to the voice of His word”.

Giving voice to God’s Word moves angels to action on your behalf – Hebrews 1.14(Weymouth’s New Testament translation):

14 “Are not all angels spirits that serve Him–whom He sends out to render service for the benefit of those who, before long, will inherit salvation”?

Every blessing I have enjoyed in my thirty years of walking with the Lord, by His grace, has majorly being by holding on to His Word, encounter with His Word & speaking forth in His Word.

I don’t joke with His Word & I don’t permit negative utterances around me!

In our family, it is a LAW not to say anything good is finished.

Food is plenty…; money is plenty…; I am strong…; etc etc.

You may not like it but you see, I’m not to live my life by what you like but by how it is divinely commanded!

You may say it’s not reality but I’ve chosen to stay with the “foolishness & weakness of God”, because it has always proved to be “wiser & stronger than men” – 1 Corinthians 1.25(Amplified version):

25 “[This is] because the foolish thing [that has its source in] God is wiser than men, and the weak thing [that springs] from God is stronger than men”.

Beloved, it’s time to give His Word it’s rightful place in your heart & life & the SUPERNATURAL will be the order of the day for you!

This is your week of GLORY!

No more shame for you, in Jesus’ most colourful name!

I am so eager to hear & read your testimonies of His Word!

PEACE!

JESUS IS LORD!
