Guided Power

                                                                                                             

“To turn things around, you may have to experience the sort of encounter that Moses had.”


READ: Exodus 3:11-12   



                                                                                                       

By Ben Dankaka

Our ability to succeed is certain. But it can only come into effect when we maximize the power within us. To effectively use your innate power, you will have to learn how to use it. While there are several ways of becoming powerful, one of the best methods is the one that worked for Moses. As a privileged Jew in Pharaoh’s palace, Moses had tried to “acquire” power by force. But it didn’t work. When he secretly killed an Egyptian who was maltreating a Jew, instead of gaining the respect of his people, he was mocked and then he found himself on exile. 

Like Moses, perhaps you feel disappointed. To turn things around, you may have to experience the sort of encounter Moses had. Even though, God has already equipped us with the power to succeed, He still wants to guide us. Remember when Moses met God at the burning bush, he was instructed to return to Egypt and deliver the very people he once tried to rescue. But this time, Moses was charged to use his abilities through the guidance of God’s Spirit. May you also have an encounter that would revive the power within you. 


Prayer/Confession: LORD, I need an encounter that would revive the potential you have deposited in me, in Jesus name. Amen.
