WHATS IN YOUR HAND

When the anointing of God settles in your life, the supernatural power of God will operate through the natural to produce results that are humanly impossible.

Do you know the greatest need in your life this year?

God in Your singing. God in your preaching. God in your marriage. God in Your business. God in your relationships. God in your gift. God in your talent. When God gets in any area of your life it can no longer be the same.

1samuel 10:6 And the Spirit of the LORD will come upon thee, and thou shalt prophesy with them, and shalt be turned into another man.

When God gets in a thing it can scare some people. Just like Moses who had never seen his rod do anything like that before. God got in a rock and caused a river to flow out of it that quenched the thirst of 1to 3 million Israelites. God got in a donkey and caused it to speak and rebuke a rebellious prophet. God got in an axe head of Iron and caused it to swim up to the top of the water wood. God got in a little pot of oil and caused it to multiply till it met every need and provided an abundant overflow. God got in a box, and they called it the Ark of the Covenant.

Today God has chosen to place his presence and glory in human tents; Our bodies are the temples of God.

2 Corinthians 4:7 But we have this (treasure in earthen vessels,) that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.

Moses rod symbolizes something- That is weak. That has no life That has no energy of its own.

It symbolizes what the natural human power can do. But when it comes in contact with the power of GOD it becomes something else. In like fashion: We are weak.We have no life We have no strength. We have no power of our own.

It was only as Moses released his rod to God, that Gods power came into it. It is only as we surrender ourselves to God that his power will be manifested through us.

Too many times we are unwilling to give up what we have.We want to hold on to What we know.What we understand. What we are comfortable with. What we have leaned upon and had control of for so long.

God wants to release- Something new.Something greater. (But you have to be willing to let go of what you have).Trust God with that situation that is dying in your life. Trust GOD with that which is causing you anxiety.

The ROD of Moses became the rod of God.

That rod became the symbol of Gods authority and Power, The instrument by which God’s word and will were enforced.It is those who walk in the Spirit that God will use to enforce his will on earth.

One of the greatest problems we have as Believers is we have a tendency to underestimate what we have.

I have just enough meal and oil for one little cake said the widow of zarephath. I have just a little pot of oil, said the widow woman who was in debt and in danger of losing her sons to a life of slavery.

There is a lad here with two fish and five loaves of bread, but what is that among so many asked Philip a disciple of Jesus. But in each case their little bit was enough.

When they put it in Gods hands it became more than enough.

When Samson was assaulted by the philistines there were no superior weapons of quality design to be found.

He started looking around him for something, (anything that he could use.He found the jawbone of an ass and with it slew a thousand men.

What made this jawbone Samson’s weapon of choice? Answer: It was there, It was available, It was within reach.

Dear brothers and sisters God is not looking for greatness. Any old stick. Any old bush will do).All God needs is for you To make what you have, make yourself available to him. Put it in his hands.

When Samson looked at that jawbone of an ass. He saw something no one else saw.He saw a weapon of mass destruction and that’s what it became in his hand.

Had he despised that jawbone and thought That it was too weak.Too insignificant.Too foolish. he may have died at the hands of the enemy.

I believe many of Gods people have been defeated in life because we have allowed the enemy to cause us to despise our gift, or our talent, Like the servant who went out and buried his one talent, many have buried their talents because it seemed so weak, so small, so insignificant.

But the Holy Spirit is saying to us: It’s time to take the harp off the willow tree, dig up that hidden talent and put it in the masters hands.

Look what God did with a stick Whats In Your hand?
