Today’s Topic: You Are Very Powerful
Scripture: Solomon son of David took firm control of his kingdom, for the LORD his God was with him and made him very powerful. 2 Chronicles 1:1, NLT
Today’s Word
At the start of this new year, you may be facing situations that look too big. The opposition is too strong, the dream too great. It’s easy to have a weak mentality, to feel intimidated, as though you’re at a disadvantage. This is probably the way Solomon felt when his father, David, died. David was an amazing leader who had conquered nations and defeated giants.
Solomon wasn’t a warrior king like his father, but he was suddenly thrust into this position. I’m sure he was tempted to shrink back and think, “This is too much. I can’t lead a nation.” But today’s Scripture says that he took firm control of the kingdom, for the Lord was with him and made him very powerful. Y
ou may see yourself as limited, not enough, less-than, but the Lord your God is with you. He has made you not just powerful, but very powerful. What you’re up against may be big, but it’s no match for you. The same power that raised Christ from the dead lives in you. You’re not ordinary. You’re not common. You are very powerful.
Prayer For Today
“Father, thank You that every force of the enemy was broken when Jesus rose from the dead. Thank You that You have given me Your power and that there will be no situation in this coming year that is too big or opposition too strong. I declare that You have made me very powerful. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”
INSPIRATIONAL MESSAGE: Isaiah said, “God is longing to be good to those who look for and expect His goodness, His favor, and His blessing.” Notice how God wants to be good to you, He wants to show you His favor, but there’s a condition. He’s looking for people that are expecting His goodness, expecting His favor. People who believe healing is coming, that breakthroughs are on the way, that their future will be brighter than their past. Could it be that God is longing to be good to you, but you’re not seeing it because you’re not looking for His goodness?
