ANCHOR SCRIPTURE(S): ACTS 10:38

MESSAGE OBJECTIVE(S): Understanding why we need the power of God

It is important to note that the power of God is not for show

WHY IS THE POWER OF GOD NECESSARY?

1. For victory over stagnation (Acts 10:38)
   Power is needed for life and destiny to be on the move
   Power is needed to cover new grounds
   Power is needed for lifts and shifts in life
2. For productivity and resourcefulness of life
   Power is needed for the working of all things
   Anywhere you see something not working, it is lacking in power
   Power is needed for victory over anti-productivity forces
3. For full and maximum deployment of life’s potentials
   It is possible for potential to be available but not useable because power is unavailable
   When potential fails to manifest, the situation is called impotence.
4. For the offering of generational answers
   This means, making generational difference
   Adding values to life and producing value on earth, you need power
   Power is not only for pastors – you don’t need a pastor to walk in power
5. For the release of generational relief
   Relieving the pains of a generation
   Pains remain where power is lacking
6. For the deliverance of generational captives
   It is for the breaking of generational yokes and chains
7. For the fulfilment of purpose and life’s assignment
   In order for us to be everything we are meant to be, we need power.
   When God lays His Hands upon you, the devil also tries to lay his finger upon you
   The heavier your destiny, the heavier the confrontation, and it takes the power of God to overcome anti-destiny forces
   In order to reach your destiny you need to overcome enemy resistance, and to do that, you need power.

THE SECRET OF POWER:
The Presence of God (Acts 10:38)
Whatever keeps you in the vicinity of God, keeps you in the vicinity of power
The entry point into the Presence of God is salvation.
