knowing that whatever good anyone does, this he will receive back from the Lord, whether he is a bondservant or is free. Eph. 6:8

I shared with you on Sunday that often we refer to praise as a weapon. Speaking the Word can also be used as one as well, but you do have to be careful not to misuse either of these weapons and leave God out. That may sound hard to do, but trust me, it can happen. This scripture helps us to keep the proper perspective when using spiritual weapons: “For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds (2 Cor. 10:4).”

Our verse for today can also be used as a weapon, or should I say, used to go on the offensive. Yesterday’s verse said to “look out not only for our own interests, but also for the interests of others (Phil. 2:4 CSB).” When things are not flowing as they should in your life, or even our case, the church, we can, on purpose, set aside our own interests for a moment and do something good for someone else. What have you got to lose? God guarantees that you will receive it back from him!

So let’s set off a chain reaction of greater blessings today! Think what could happen today if you called someone to check on them, sent them an encouraging text, give someone a special offering, gave food to a homeless person, or took time out to pray a special pray for some else. Intercessory prayer is one of the most selfless things you can do, plus it “makes tremendous power available [dynamic in its working] (Jam. 5:16 AMPC).” Available power makes me think of a power supply. Did you know our prayers are key to supplying God’s power?

For I am well assured and indeed know that through your prayers and a bountiful supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ (the Messiah) this will turn out for my preservation (for the spiritual health and welfare of my own soul) and avail toward the saving work of the Gospel. Phil. 1:19 AMPC

It would be fitting to say, Faith Harvest, let’s AMP it up!

Please join us at 6PM tonight as we continue to fast and prayer for our church.
