KEEP THE SWITCH OF FAITH ON PART ONE

Hello beloved, you are welcome to the month of September. I thank the Lord for you, for the manifestation of His word and power in your life.

It is God’s utmost desire that you prosper and live in sound health, that is why He said In the book of 3rd John 1:2, “Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.” Prosperity and sound health are the two most sort after things on earth and God is saying that is His utmost wish for you above all things. Until you put it above all things, it will not happen to you. You must put it above all things, you must desire prosperity and sound health for it to happen in you life.

How is this going to happen? God has extended His headquarters to the earth. His headquarters is no longer only in Heaven, His headquarters has come to the earth also. That is why Jesus Christ went ahead preaching in Matthew 4:17 saying, “...Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.” The kingdom of Heaven is here, the kingdom of Heaven is God’s headquarters. The manifestation of the power of God in Heaven came when the Holy Ghost came to the earth. The Holy Ghost is the manifest power of God when He came to the earth on the day of Pentecost, God made all things possible for man and there is nothing that you want in your life that cannot be achieved anymore as far as the Holy Ghost is in operation in you. For many of us, we are still crying to Heaven to do it for us, Heaven the Bible says is here and He is in you.

The kingdom of God is within you, and wherever the Holy Ghost is the kingdom is in operation. Luke 17:21 says, “Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you.” For some of us, we don’t know that the kingdom is within us because we don’t see it. You’ve got to see it that the kingdom is within you. As far as the Holy Ghost is in you, the kingdom is in you. All things are possible with God because of the Holy Ghost in you. Colossians 1:13, “Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son.” God didn’t just deliver us from the power of darkness, He took us from the region of darkness and brought us to His Kingdom. You are in the kingdom of God now, in the kingdom of God, there is no scarcity because it is the operation of heaven brought to earth. “...Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.”-Matthew 6:10. Once the kingdom of God in heaven relocated to earth, then it became possible for whatsoever is happening in heaven to happen to you on earth. You are the extension of heaven and the kingdom of God must be in operation in your life. Any where the word of God is in operation, that is where the Holy Ghost is in operation and that is where the kingdom is in operation. If you can locate the word of God to do it, the Holy Ghost will visit you and the kingdom will be in operation right there. The kingdom is not just in you, you are in the kingdom now. The Bible says, “You are sitted in heavenly places by Christ Jesus, far above principalities and power, far above sickness and disease, lack and poverty and far above every oppression of Satan.” -Ephesians 1:20-21. You are free now, you belong to heaven. Have you ever heard that the angels in heaven went on strike, that they have not been paid. Or that they are sick and cannot carry out their duties? If there is no scarcity in heaven, then the era of scarcity is over in your life in Jesus name. If there is no sickness in heaven , then it cannot be in operation in your life.

Now that the kingdom is in you and you are in the kingdom, How do you experience the miraculous? 1st Corinthians 12:4-6 & 11 says, “Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit. And there are differences of administrations, but the same Lord. And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God which worketh all in all. But all these worketh that one and the selfsame Spirit, dividing to every man severally as he will.” Paul is making us understand that there are diversities of gifts and the Lord distributes these gifts according to His will. In a particular service some may receive financial miracles, while some may receive healing miracles. It is the self same Spirit dividing to every man severally as He wills. In the book of John 5:1-9, You see Jesus manifesting the glory of God, “After this there was a feast of the Jews; and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. Now there is at Jerusalem by the sheep market a pool, which is called in the Hebrew tongue Bethesda, having five porches. In these lay a great multitude of impotent folk, of blind, halt, withered, waiting for the moving of the water. For an angel went down at a certain season into the pool, and troubled the water: whosoever then first after the troubling of the water stepped in was made whole of whatsoever disease he had. And a certain man was there, which had an infirmity thirty and eight years. When Jesus saw him lie, and knew that he had been now a long time in that case, he saith unto him, Wilt thou be made whole? The impotent man answered him, Sir, I have no man, when the water is troubled, to put me into the pool: but while I am coming, another steppeth down before me. Jesus saith unto him, Rise, take up thy bed, and walk. And immediately the man was made whole, and took up his bed, and walked: and on the same day was the sabbath.” The Bible told us that there was a multitude of sick folks, what happened to the others? Why just one receiving the healing? Jesus came for just one person out of the multitude, the others must believe for their miracles. Acts 19:11-12 & 21, “And God wrought special miracles by the hands of Paul: So that from his body were brought unto the sick handkerchiefs or aprons, and the diseases departed from them, and the evil spirits went out of them. After these things were ended...” There are times you don’t do much in the kingdom and you begin to experience or receive miracles. That is God working in your life, that is not your faith yet. That is God doing special miracles by the gift of the Holy Ghost, that is God having mercy upon you. But if you sit down and think that will continue, you are deceiving yourself. That era will cease “After these things were ended..” Acts 19:21. You have to open a new chapter, and that chapter is the era where you have to make things consistently happen in your life. That era is the era of faith.

God bless you. See you next month.
