Ministry Is From The Inside

Apostle Grace Lubega

Ephesians 3:20 (KJV); Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think.

When God ministers to your spirit, he does so by impartation. This is because the spirit is the part of you that can articulate the divine things.

Our theme scripture says that God is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think according to the power that works within us.

What you see physically such as the depth of revelation, the healing of the blind, lame and deaf or the demonstration of the Spirit is all a part of what is inside the spirit of the minister.

We minister from our spirits and not from our minds.

What comes from the mind will only touch the mind but what comes from the spirit will touch the spirit.

And when the spirit is impacted, we realise the place of true transformation. Hallelujah!

PRAYER: Father, I thank you for your Spirit in the inside of me. I stand in the confidence that whatsoever I do is not by power, not by might but by your spirit. I operate by the power within. By this, I not only touch lives but I transform and change them to the glory of your name. Amen.

The Blessing To Attract

Apostle Grace Lubega

Deuteronomy 33:18 (KJV); And of Zebulun he said, Rejoice, Zebulun, in thy going out; and, Issachar, in thy tents. They shall call the people unto the mountain; there they shall offer sacrifices of righteousness: for they shall suck of the abundance of the seas, and of treasures hid in the sand.

In our opening scripture Zebulun and Isscahar received this blessing: that they would rejoice in their going out and in their dwelling places.

The name Zebulun, in the Hebrew means ‘exalted’. And the name Issachar means ‘there is recompense’ or ‘one who brings reward’.

Child of God, you suck the abundant treasures of the spirit every time you yield to the God who exalts you and rewards you in the places of your habitation.

There is a blessing for the man who has understood that God and He alone exalts and honours His servants (John 12:26) and that He and Him alone is your reward (Genesis 15:1).

It is in this place that you learn how to attract blessings, wisdom, greatness, and riches.
This is the reason we rejoice in our going out and in our tents! So, rejoice always! Rejoice that you are His righteousness, and that you attract blessings by His anointing.

You prosper in the desert, valley or plain because the blessing upon you attracts good things. Hallelujah!

You suck the abundant treasures of the spirit every time you yield to the God who exalts you and rewards you in the places of your habitation. There is a blessing for the man who has understood that God and He alone exalts and honours His servants and that He and Him alone is your reward.

PRAYER: Heavenly Father, I thank you for the blessing of the Holy Ghost. I thank you because I am blessed with every blessing in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus. I have all things that pertain to life and godliness. I cannot want. In every circumstance I know how to profit. I am blessed of the Lord. God is my reward, and He that exalts my crown. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

The Effectual Working Of The Word

Apostle Grace Lubega

1 Thessalonians 2:13 (KJV); For this cause also thank we God without ceasing, because, when ye received the word of God which ye heard of us, ye received it not as the word of men, but as it is in truth, the word of God, which effectually worketh also in you that believe.

In our theme scripture we understand that the church at Thessalonica, at the time the Gospel was preached unto them, did not receive the Word of God as preached by Paul as though it were the words of a mere man. But they received it as the Word of God in truth.

For this reason, the Word which Thessalonica received worked effectually in them that did believe it.

The Greek word that is used to translate the words “effectually worketh” in our opening scripture is “energeō” which means to put forth power.

The Word of God you believe has a definite effect in your spirit. The moment you believe it, it starts to put forth power to make things around you respond to it.

Child of God, what does the Word of God say about you? Believe it and speak it upon your life.

Paul admonished us in his letter to Philemon, teaching us that ‘the communication of your faith is made effectual by the acknowledging of every good thing that is in you’ (Philemon 1:6).

Learn to communicate the Word of God with your mouth. Speak it upon your life. As you believe and speak it, it releases the power to cause results. Hallelujah!

FURTHER STUDY: Philemon 1:6, Mark 9:23

GOLDEN NUGGET:

The Word of God you believe has a definite effect in your spirit. The moment you believe it, it starts to put forth power to make things around you respond to it.

PRAYER: Dear Father, thank you for this great assurance. I thank you because all things are possible to him that believes. I live a life that demonstrates the miraculous. I abound in faith and I am fruitful in every good work, bearing results in my ministry, in my education, in my business, at my workplace, in my health and in my family life. I see your Word work in my life! Hallelujah!

The Revealed Things

Apostle Grace Lubega

Deuteronomy‬ ‭29:29 ‬(‭KJV);‬ The secret things belong unto the Lord our God: but those things which are revealed belong unto us and to our children for ever, that we may do all the words of this law.‬‬‬‬‬‬ God has made truth available to every man but only the truth revealed to you sets you free.

The Bible says “And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” (John‬ ‭8:32‬).‬ ‬‬‬

Truth that is hidden from you will not benefit you.

From our theme scripture, the Bible says that the revealed things belong to us and our children.

This means that we have the grace to preserve posterity when things are revealed to us.

The scriptures tell us about all the things that the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ purchased for us.

But it’s only until these things are revealed to us that they are truly ours.

Our responsibility as children of God is to seek revelation of the same. Hallelujah!

GOLDEN NUGGET:
God has made truth available to every man but only the truth revealed to you sets you free.

PRAYER: Father in the name of Jesus, I thank you for your word. I thank you Lord for the Spirit of revelation that is working in me. By it, I walk in the fulfillment of your promises. This Word works effectually in me and I see results in every area of my life. In Jesus’s name, Amen.

A Divine Paradox

Apostle Grace Lubega

2 Chronicles 25:1-2(KJV); Amaziah [was] twenty and five years old [when] he began to reign, and he reigned twenty and nine years in Jerusalem. And his mother’s name [was] Jehoaddan of Jerusalem. And he did that which was] right in the sight of the LORD, but not with a perfect heart.

God can do anything in any man because He [God] is no respecter of persons (Acts 10:34).

There are many across the world who call unto God to be used of Him. They fast, pray, give and make many sacrifices but never seem to see God work mightily through them.

Some have made themselves available vessels for any task at hand but have still not been used by God in the ways He wishes to.

The reason for this is because many never EXAMINE the STATE of their hearts with regard to what they are asking for.

Our theme scripture tells a story of a one Amaziah who did what was right in the sight of God. Sadly however, even if he did what was right, it was not with a perfect heart.

What a paradox!

Sadly again, even today, many are like this; they give big, pray hard, fast for long but not with a perfect heart.

Why do you attend service every day? Why do you serve in the ministry? Why do you want a big church? Why do you want the anointing? Why do you want to heal?

Beloved, why are you asking for what you asking for from God?

It might be all right and good in the sight of God but it also has to be with a PERFECT HEART.

This perfect heart is a pure heart that pants after what God desires, seeks to see what God wishes to establish and yearns for the fulfilment of the will of the Father.

GOLDEN NUGGET:
The perfect heart is a pure heart that pants after what God desires, seeks to see what God wishes to establish and yearns for the fulfilment of the will of the Father.

PRAYER: My heavenly father, I thank you for the word for today. It is nourishment to my soul and by it I grow. This day, search my heart oh Lord. Shine your light on those things that must change, that my true desires will be your desires. Cause me to minister out of a purity of spirit and not selfishness of personal gain. Help me and deal with me Lord. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

The Meekness Of Wisdom

Apostle Grace Lubega

James 3:13 (KJV); Who is a wise man and endued with knowledge among you? let him shew out of a good conversation his works with meekness of wisdom.

Wisdom is humble and the Spirit of it comes with peace.

If a person is proud, it means that they are lacking in certain aspects of wisdom.

One facet of this wisdom is demonstrated in how you respond to authority; your boss, pastor or parents.

I have met Christians who claim that Christ was made their wisdom but they talk back at authority in a way that disqualifies them from among the wise.

Wisdom causes you to shine but this lack of humility dims your star.

Even when you are insulted, respond with humility because that is the meekness of the wise. Hallelujah!

FURTHER STUDY: Daniel 12:3, 1 Corinthians 1:30

GOLDEN NUGGET:

Wisdom is humble and the Spirit of it comes with peace.

PRAYER: My Father, I thank you for the crown of wisdom that you have bestowed upon my head. In my sphere of influence, people call me wise because I carry the very meekness of the wise. I know when to speak and how to speak. By this, I distinguish myself with the excellent character of the Spirit. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
