SEVEN SUPERNATURAL POWERS OF A FATHER   Scripture: Matthew 11:2-6 Topic: Seven Supernatural Powers of a Father - Part 2 Father's both biological and spiritual are a gift from God, hold a position of authority and have the backing of heaven. How we relate with them determine the outcome of our lives. In this series of our quiet time we will study the supernatural powers of a father. It is my prayer that you will receive wisdom to carefully manage your relationship with fathers and those in authority over you.  2. The father’s supernatural power to be a stumbling block A father does not have to speak a curse in order to cause problems for his sons. A father’s existence can cause the fall of his son. Because fathers are not perfect they are easy to criticize and dishonour. Fathers often look strange and outdated to sons. "Now when John had heard in the prison the works of Christ, he sent two of his disciples, And said unto him, Art thou he that should come, or do we look for anot...

SEVEN SUPERNATURAL POWERS OF A FATHER Scripture: Luke 2:34 Topic: Seven Supernatural Powers of a Father - Part 1 Father's both biological and spiritual are a gift from God, hold a position of authority and have the backing of heaven. How we relate with them determine the outcome of our lives. In this series of our quiet time we will study the supernatural powers of a father. It is my prayer that you will receive wisdom to carefully manage your relationship with fathers and those in authority over you. 1. The father’s supernatural power to be a stepping stone. "And Simeon blessed them, and said unto Mary his mother,  Behold, this child is set for the fall and rising again of many in Israel; and for a sign which shall be spoken against;" Luke 2:34 A father, by his very existence, causes his children to go higher. The Scripture above shows us how the presence of Christ caused the rise and the fall of many different people.  A father is supernaturally placed to cause the elev...

"…for as soon as Zion travailed, SHE BROUGHT FORTH HER CHILDREN." Isaiah 66:8 A very important revelation about prayer is the fact that prayer has a creative potential. If you are starting out in ministry, you will need to pray until something that doesn't exist comes into existence. Creating something is different from maintaining it. Many people can maintain what has been created but it takes a man of prayer to create new things. If you are sent out to do a pioneering work, be a man of prayer. A man of ...

"No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strong man; and then he will spoil his house." Mark 3:27 Dear pastor friend, a church is not a secular organisation. You need to bind the devil for several important reasons: a. You must bind his activity that causes divisions and disloyalty amongst leaders. b. You must bind his influence that causes backsliding, immorality and sin in your members. c. You must bind the demons that cause poverty, depression and oppression in...

"And Moses went into the midst of the cloud, and gat him up into the mount: and Moses was in the mount forty days and forty nights." Exodus 24:18 When you are close to someone, something rubs off on you. Whenever you spend time in prayer, you are spending time talking to God.  The more you talk to someone, the closer you become to the person. The closer you are to someone, the more things rub off on you. Do you want some of God's glory to be on you? Do you want the anointing to be on your life?  I wish I could offer you an easie...

"And it came to pass, when Jesus had ended these sayings, the people were astonished at his doctrine: For he taught them AS ONE HAVING AUTHORITY, and not as the scribes." Matthew 7:28,29 You will notice that Jesus was a man of authority. Authority can be explained as that "not-easily-defined, invisible, magnetic aura that surrounds a man of God." Authority emanates from your closeness to God. The closer you are to a person, the more confidently you speak about him. You will have more authority when you speak of him...

"And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint; Saying, There was in a city a judge, which feared not God, neither regarded man: And there was a widow in that city; and she came unto him, saying, Avenge me of mine adversary. And he would not for a while: but afterward he said within himself, Though I fear not God, nor regard man; Yet because this widow troubleth me, I will avenge her, lest by her continual coming she weary me.

I want you to read them carefully.    “And he said unto them, which of you shall have a friend, and shall go unto him at midnight, and say unto him, Friend, lend me three loaves; For a friend of mine in his journey is come to me, and I have nothing to set before him...
