Power in Invitation
Have you ever sent an invitation to someone, maybe a wedding or a party or some sort of ceremony. That person comes because not only have they been sent an invitation but also because they know the people inviting them really want to have them present. They are allowed to be there, Be present and involve themselves in the event.
When I was reading in Matthew over the weekend I come to Ch.8 v 34 were the City People came to meet Jesus after He had sent the demons over the cliff in a herd of pigs. They asked Jesus to leave the area, and its borders. I wonder was this because they seen A Power above any human ability? I wonder was it because they were scared that they wouldn’t be in control, or maybe it was because there was much Sin in this city and the thought of Jesus cleaning it up didn’t appeal to them.
I remember reading about a town a few miles from my home that at the start of the 19th century the church leaders met together to pray for the Power of the Holy spirit to Leave the town, when I drive through the town now it always feels dead, business in the town isn’t great, many borded up shops, and not to mention much demonic activity, family breakups, crime, alcohol, drug and sexual abuse in the town to mention a few problems.
The churches at time were afraid of loosing control of meetings, loosing control of their people, yet its Gods church so why are they trying to restrict and restrain God.
I Believe in our Lives we need to invite God, not only into our hearts when we become Christians, but also to invite God into our homes, Marriages, Workplaces, Churches, Towns, Housing Estates, By us inviting God into these areas we are getting rid of satans grip on areas and we are allowing God to come and work and move in his Power and might, Today I urge you to invite God into every area in your life, As I prayed an Invitation to God driving through my home town last night I could feel a dynamic power as I prayed, So Please for Gods sake, for your families sake and for This nations sake invite God into everything we do and everywhere we Go.
When Our community Invites God to come in the fulness of his Power I believe there will be a significant increase in signs, wonders and miracles! To the point were our faith will be built up and increased to believe God for every impossibility to become a Reality.
