Each morning as I get up and have communion time with the Holy Spirit I am always awed by the considerable level of insight, understanding and life that the Holy Spirit possesses. It is so beautiful because I can just open myself completely to what He has in store for the day.
I pray today that you will find the grace to give the Holy Spirit the inception of your day and allow Him to set the tone of your productivity and fruitfulness for each day going forward so you will experience all the fullness of God in your lives in Jesus name. Ephesians.3:19.
The Holy Spirit this morning wants you to know that He is not relying on you to do or be anything for God, but for you to completely depend upon Him to empower you to be what God created you to be. 1 Peter.1:2. The Holy Spirit wants you to look to Him for the boldness you need to be effective for the Kingdom.
Even if you believe you are eloquent. The reality is clear: your eloquence will not be able to cut it in the Kingdom. You will need more than eloquence of speech to defeat the works of the devil. 1 Corinthians.2:1 & 2.
In the book of Acts.4:29 we read these words: Now, Lord, look on their threats, and grant to Your servants that with all boldness they may speak Your word, 30 by stretching out Your hand to heal, and that signs and wonders may be done through the name of Your holy Servant Jesus.”
Think on this after such a ferocious attack of the devil to force the Apostles to stop speaking in the name of Jesus. What we see them doing is praying a prayer that must be emulated as our daily cry before the Lord. “We need to be able to speak with all the boldness that flows from the Holy Spirit to us the word of the Lord.
I realized this reality years ago :“It is one thing to speak the word with your voice but a completely different matter when you speak that same word by the unction of the Holy Spirit which will produce life in the darkest and most death-filled environment.”
“Words spoken by the Holy Spirit will always radiate light and bring forth life into any darkness and change chaos bringing forth order and Divine Design.”
Let’s look again carefully at the request of the Apostles and watch for the Answer the Holy Spirit gives because this is what we need to be looking for in our lives on a daily basis. Grant that your servants may speak your word with all boldness. Not with some measure of boldness or timidity or trepidation but with all boldness. Complete boldness which is what Jesus spoke with.
“We should not speak for the Lord coming short in any boldness that the Holy Spirit possesses, but loaded with all the boldness that He possesses and carries which will bring answers of great magnitude.”
“The boldness of speech, believe me, has a direct correlation to the stretching out of the hand of God to heal resulting in the production of signs and wonders to be done through the hand of the Holy Spirit for the glory of the name of Jesus.”
Without the boldness of speech flowing from the Holy Spirit through you you will not see the miraculous power of God made manifest to heal, deliver and bring freedom. “It is imperative that we request from the Lord through the Holy Spirit for the boldness to speak the word and then we will see the manifestation of the hand of the Lord.” It is not by might, nor by power but by My Spirit says the Lord. Ephesians.6:20.
“Our shouting loud will not cut through the enemy but being loaded with the boldness of the Holy Spirit will break through any and every demonic obstacle.”
I am always looking at the results when prayer has been offered because Jesus said we should ask and receive so our joy might be full. So let’s see what happens from this prayer for boldness.
In Acts.4:31 we read these words: And when they had prayed, the place where they were assembled together was shaken; and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and they spoke the word of God with boldness. What a remarkable turn of events.
Unlike today most times in church we see the people do all the shaking and activity but here we see the Holy Spirit shaking the place as the boldness overtakes the people and the results are stunning as the word is spoken boldly.
Acts.4:32-37 Now the multitude of those who believed were of one heart and one soul; neither did anyone say that any of the things he possessed was his own, but they had all things in common. 33 And with great power the apostles gave witness to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus. And great grace was upon them all.
34 Nor was there anyone among them who lacked; for all who were possessors of lands or houses sold them, and brought the proceeds of the things that were sold, 35 and laid them at the apostles’ feet; and they distributed to each as anyone had need.36 And Joses, who was also named Barnabas by the apostles (which is translated Son of Encouragement), a Levite of the country of Cyprus, 37 having land, sold it, and brought the money and laid it at the apostles’ feet.
Firstly the agreement we see in the disciples is breathtakingly awesome and we have not seen that level of union in our day where we have every soul present having the same heart and soul. Such a willingness of heart to the point of relinquishing their ownership of possessions for the common good of all.
Then the Apostles go on to manifest the tangible presence of the resurrection power of Jesus that people see visibly as great grace is imparted to people that removes poverty. All lack in the life of every believer is removed as resources from owners of lands and property were sold to remove the burden of lack on their brothers and sisters as everybody’s needs were met.
Life changed in an instance as all disciples’ financial problems were sorted out and no one was in any lack. All boasting of their personal wealth and how good God was to only them vanished as the Holy Spirit manifested the true Kingdom of Jesus. There was corporate deliverance.
“I pray that we see it again in our day as the Holy Spirit is granted permission by us to do such marvels as we boldly declare the word of God. Thus allowing the Hand of the Lord to manifest again as He did then.”
I pray that as you hear these words today the Holy Spirit will ignite in you a fresh fire with a burning passion to pursue after this grace which will bring a fresh awakening to the God of boldness that speaks boldly through us. Then let us go on to manifest Him in such multiple dimensions of glory that all have to say the Lord has visited His people.
“ We are now living in the days of the Lord in full manifestation of the power of the Holy Spirit.”
May you be found passionately pursuing this reality of the Holy Spirit in this hour in Jesus name. Amen.
