THE MYSTERY OF GOD'S HAND!
HOW TO ACTIVATE GOD'S HAND?
In this second part of our series on "THE MYSTERY OF GOD'S HAND," we will explore the sub-theme: "HOW TO ACTIVATE GOD'S HAND?" in our daily lives.
By following this series of teachings, I hope you will understand that it is possible
"TO ACTIVATE GOD'S HAND" in your life. This teaching aims to help you understand what you need to do to achieve this and fulfill your destiny. Through this teaching, drawing on Scripture (the Bible), I will reveal five prophetic keys that will enable you
" TO ACTIVATE GOD'S HAND"in your daily life.
But before revealing the prophetic keys that can help you understand how to activate God's hand in your life, your destiny, your ministry, your work, and your family, I would first like to explain what it means to activate God's hand?.
WHAT DOES "ACTIVATING GOD'S HAND" MEAN?
In a religious, spiritual, or prophetic context, the expression "activating God's hand" often refers to requesting divine intervention in our lives through spiritual and prophetic actions that can prompt God to act on our behalf.
HOW TO ACTIVATE GOD'S HAND? WHAT ARE THE KEYS?
Can we activate "God's hand"? Yes, we can activate His hand to act in our favor if we understand the principles that can lead Him to act in our lives. Activating God's hand in our lives means asking for His help and desiring to include Him in our daily lives. And this can be done in different ways: Here are the 5 keys to activating "God's hand."
1. FASTING AND PRAYER:
I want you to understand that fasting and prayer are essential to the life of faith. Not only do they help develop your spirituality and strengthen your mind and soul by providing you with increased spiritual energy, so precious for a spiritually strong and victorious life, but they also encourage God to work in your life. By regularly practicing fasting and prayer, with faith and perseverance, we can activate God's hand in our lives.
Matthew 17:21
But this kind of demon does not go out except through prayer and fasting.
Luke 21:36
Therefore be always on the watch, and pray that you may be able to escape all these things that are about to happen, and that you may be able to stand before the Son of Man.
Jeremiah 33:3
Call to me and I will answer you and tell you things that are too precious and unsearchable, things you do not know.
IMPORTANT TO KNOW:
For me, prayer is like the wind: when it rises, everything is set in motion. The stronger the wind, the greater the damage it can cause, even to large trees or houses in the city. Those who maintain a stable and regular prayer life will be able to face any situation and overcome it in the name of Jesus.
Conversely, fasting is like lightning (thunder): it amplifies the force of the wind, thus increasing the damage in the face of adversity. This is why those who pray and fast regularly are generally spiritually strong, because the hand of God is always at work in their lives.
TWO WAYS TO PRAY:
(INDIVIDUAL PRAYER AND GROUP PRAYER)
For God to work powerfully in our lives as believers, it is essential to learn to cultivate a prayer life in two ways: individually and in groups. As believers, we should pray fervently each day and regularly participate in group prayer, which is also very important for our lives, regardless of our level of faith, because it strengthens us spiritually and allows God to work fully in our lives. The same is true for fasting.
Acts 2:42
They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer.
Acts 1:14
They all joined together constantly in prayer, along with the women and Mary the mother of Jesus, and his brothers.
James 5:16
Therefore confess your sins to one another and pray for one another so that we may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective.
1 Peter 4:7
The end of all things is near. Therefore be alert and of sober mind, and faithfully pray.
PRACTICE THESE TWO TYPES OF PRAYER:
(COVENANT PRAYER AND SPONTANEOUS PRAYER)
These are the two most important aspects of prayer, and I advise you, from experience, to practice them. These two types of prayer will allow you to be more effective in spiritual battles and will also allow God to act more actively and lastingly in your life and destiny. So, when it comes to prayer, never forget to practice covenant prayer and spontaneous prayer; you will certainly see impressive results, like never before, if you know how to use them at the right time.
PRAYERS OF COVENANT:
What is a prayer of covenant?
A prayer of covenant is a prayer recited regularly, like a routine, in the same place, at the same times, or sometimes with the same people. It can be recited daily, semi-annually, monthly, or annually.
1 Samuel 1:19-20
19Early the next morning they rose and, after worshiping the Lord, returned home to Ramah. Elkanah went in to Hannah his wife, and the Lord remembered her. 20That same year Hannah conceived and gave birth to a son, whom she named Samuel, saying, “Because I asked the Lord for him.”
Luke 22:39-40
39After he left, he went, as was his custom, to the Mount of Olives. His disciples followed him. 40When he arrived there, he said to them, “Pray that you may not fall into temptation.”
John 18:2
Judas, who betrayed him, knew the place, for Jesus and his disciples had often met there.
Mark 1:35
35Very early in the morning, while it was still very dark, Jesus got up, left the house and went off to a solitary place, where he prayed.
KEY POINTS TO REMEMBER:
In this type of prayer, you can use the same words, the same Bible verses, or certain specific psalms that God has revealed to you, to recite for a given period until tangible results are obtained.
THIS PRAYER WILL BECOME AN ALTAR:
It is essential to understand that if you pray every day at the same time, in the same place, and with the same people, your prayer will be transformed into a covenant in God's presence.
And covenant prayers, offered reverently—that is, with respect for the time and place—will ultimately become an altar. And where there is an altar, you will always find these four elements: the Spirit of God (or the spirit of evil), the Word that creates (the Covenant), the sacrifice to solidify the covenant, and the promise to seal the covenant. These four elements constitute the fundamental principles that give strength to a spiritual altar.
Genesis 26:24-25
24That night the Lord appeared to him and said, “I am the God of your father Abraham. Do not be afraid, for I am with you; I will bless you and make your descendants numerous for the sake of my servant Abraham.” 25So he built an altar, called on the name of the Lord, and pitched his tent. Isaac’s servants dug a well.
UNDERSTANDING HOW IT WORKS:
According to the logic of covenant prayers, for them to be effective, one must first be a true convert, that is, someone who already has a covenant with God (the covenant of the Father and the Son).
Then, one must be constant and persevering, ready to test one’s strength and overcome one’s weaknesses, because this type of prayer requires many sacrifices and daily discipline to be effective; this means being willing to pay the price.
Finally, it is essential to know how to speak to one's enemies and to be ready to confront them with the Word, for it is the only legitimate weapon in spiritual warfare.
Fourth, in most cases, one must promise God what one will do in return if He answers one's prayers, so that these prayers become a complete altar for oneself and one's family.
IMPORTANT:
This type of prayer requires a lot of energy, discipline, and sacrifice to be effective. If you are a lazy person, it won't work for you. However, these prayers are very effective for obtaining lasting solutions.
WHEN DO YOU NEED THE PRAYER COVENANT?
First: When you are the target of constant and persistent attacks from witchcraft or the dark world, this type of prayer is often very effective in bringing about lasting change.
SECOND:This type of prayer is very effective for those under a spell cast by their biological parents, and for those who are victims of a curse linked to family witchcraft altars.
It is important to note that breaking free from such a spell is not easy. God has naturally given parents the power to bless us and guide our destiny.
However, witch parents often abuse their authority to destroy their children's destinies. And very often, this type of deliverance requires a long period of struggle and spiritual warfare. In my experience, such deliverances are always accompanied by serious damage within the family. Be prepared to accept this if you are seeking deliverance in this context.
THIRDLY:This type of prayer is beneficial for those who bear the burden of societal transformation, such as the renewal of a city or nation, or sometimes a change within their own family.
SPONTANEOUS PRAYER:
What is spontaneous prayer?
For me, spontaneous prayers are prayers that can be recited anywhere, anytime, or with different people. This type of prayer is often practiced outside of any set schedule or program.
Matthew 8:28-29
28 When he arrived on the other side of the lake, in the region of Gadara, two men possessed by demons came out of the tombs to meet him. They were so dangerous that no one dared to pass that way. 29 And behold, they began to cry out, “What do you want with us, Son of God? Have you come to torment us before the appointed time?”
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF SPONTANEOUS PRAYER?
In my experience, this type of prayer is often necessary to unsettle and surprise our enemies at any moment and prevent them from controlling our prayer times. Because sometimes, if the enemy already knows our prayer times and places, he can manipulate the situations around us.
That's why, in some cases, the most effective method is surprise prayer: it allows us to attack our enemies when they least expect it, and thus gain the upper hand in spiritual warfare. It's important to note that witchcraft is a routine practice, and one strategy for breaking this routine is knowing how to surprise one's enemies with unexpected prayers.
WHEN DO YOU NEED SPONTANEOUS PRAYER?
First, if you need flexibility, this type of prayer is essential because it allows you to choose the time that suits you best. Furthermore, I advise you to be flexible and listen to the voice of the Holy Spirit, which is very important in showing you the opportune time to pray.
Second, this type of prayer is beneficial for breaking routine, surprising your enemies, and preventing them from manipulating your prayer time; this type of prayer is important for you.
IMPORTANT TO KNOW:
The downside of this type of prayer is that if you don't involve disciples in your prayer life, you risk becoming lazy, slackening your efforts, and easily losing your prayer rhythm.
2. OBEDIENCE AND SANCTIFICATION:
Obeying God’s voice and living a sanctified life are essential to receiving His help. For you can fast and pray, but if you do not obey God’s voice and His word, you will always be in conflict with Him and with your destiny. Remember: it is written, “Obedience is better than sacrifice.”
1 Samuel 15:22
Samuel said, “Does the Lord delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices as much as in obeying the Lord? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and attentiveness better than the fat of rams.”
God deeply loves those who obey Him and walk worthily according to His word; these believers quickly become His friends and His people. Therefore, if you practice obedience and sanctification every day of your life, God’s hand will always be at work in you, and He will never abandon you.
Note: This obedience must be shown in all things, even the smallest details. Be obedient and faithful to God, even in the most difficult times; remain obedient and faithful to God in your service, your giving, and so on.
I want to emphasize here that obeying God also means obeying the men He has appointed to guide us in our lives, as the Word declares in Hebrews 13:17. And whoever disobeys their leaders or does not honor them will bring difficulties on their destiny.
Hebrews 13:17:
“Obey your leaders and submit to them, for they keep watch over your souls as those who must give an account. Let them do this with joy and not with groaning, for that would be of no advantage to you.”
HOW DOES IT WORK?
Here’s how it works: obedience causes God to turn his gaze toward you and act, and sanctification sustains his action in you.
3. SACRIFICES AND THANKSGIVING:
It is important to draw God's attention to our lives by giving Him thanks daily. Offering sacrifices in various forms to support His work or serve society, especially the poor and vulnerable, and expressing our gratitude, is essential for God to act on our behalf.
I want you to understand that God will not forget our sacrifices or our thanksgiving, especially those offered for the advancement of His kingdom. He always cares for us.
Philippians 4:6
“Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.”
4. PROPHETIC ACTS:
Prophetic acts can be various actions, conventional or unconventional, that the Spirit of God may prompt you to undertake and that can trigger God's action in your life. This is why it is sometimes good to follow the deep convictions of your heart and not be blinded or intimidated by the realities around us.
5. FAITH:
Faith is truly the fundamental key without which everything is impossible. For Christianity is a life of faith; everything rests on faith. It is the foundation of the Christian life. It is written: without faith, it is impossible to please Him, that is, to please God. This means that if you want to see God's hand at work in you or influence your destiny, you absolutely must have faith.
WHAT IS FAITH?
Biblically, faith is defined as "the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen" (Hebrews 11:1). But this definition is so simplistic that many Christians, even after reading the Bible, do not always fully understand what faith is.
Hebrews 11:1:
Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
IMPORTANT TO KNOW:
I am a faith teacher and I am passionate about sharing my knowledge on the subject, as I am convinced of its vital importance in contemporary Christianity. However, I regularly observe that many Christians do not clearly understand faith. Even after reading the Bible, many still don't grasp what faith is. That is why, as a teacher, I consider it my duty to help you understand what faith is by using simple and accessible language. Below you will find a simple definition to help you understand what faith is.
WHAT IS FAITH IN SIMPLE TERMS:
If I had to explain faith in very simple terms, without theological jargon, here is how I understand it. In short, faith is a profound trust and, simultaneously, an intense commitment to a person, a thing, a being, or a spirit. Often perceived as invisible because it is elusive, it can nevertheless be experienced.
Faith is therefore the invisible force that compels believers or Christians to adhere to an ideology or a revealed (often divine) truth in order to find personal and spiritual meaning in their lives.
For believers and Christians, faith transcends mere intellectual belief to become a driving spiritual force, capable of guiding their lives and actions on earth, and even influencing their daily decisions. It thus becomes the bridge that unites them between the natural and the divine, between the physical and the spiritual. It can be a gift from God, but also a virtue expressed each day through hope and deeds.
WHAT IS THE CHRISTIAN FAITH?
It is essential to understand that the Christian faith is not limited to adherence to ecclesiastical dogmas; it becomes a daily way of life for believers, an answer to many questions, profoundly transforming the individual and motivating them to action.
It is often perceived as a bond uniting the believer with God and the supernatural. And this faith must be lived, not merely proclaimed, for it is written: “The righteous will live by their faith.” Thus, the Christian faith is the energy (Power or strength) that allows us to fully rejoice in our relationship with Christ, to overcome the trials of the Christian life, and to win daily victories over sin, Satan, the devil, and the forces of darkness.
HOW TO KNOW IF I HAVE FAITH:
How can you know if you have faith? It's important to understand that faith is invisible, but its effects are perceptible. Here are five characteristics of faith that every believer should possess. If a person possesses them, you can conclude that they have faith; if not, if you don't see them, it means they have lost their faith.
CHARACTERISTICS OF FAITH:
Those who possess faith generally exhibit these five characteristics, and their presence is a sign of faith.
1. TRUST:
The first characteristic of faith is trust; placing absolute trust in someone is a major sign of faith and undoubtedly means that one believes in them. Those who lack faith instead of trust will have doubts, however slight, and will consequently be overwhelmed by hesitation and disbelief.
NOTE:
We can have trust in God, in a person (the prophets), or in a set of principles.
2. ACTION:
The second essential characteristic of faith is action, which often stems from a deep conviction, assuring us that we are on the right path. Confidence compels us to act or make a decision, and this decision is then reflected in our actions toward God or toward those in whom we have faith.
Faith is therefore more than just a thought; it inspires us to act, to live in accordance with our convictions, and, above all, it drives us to action.
3. TOTAL COMMITMENT:
The third characteristic of faith is total commitment. Faith compels you, convinces you, and forces you to commit fully—spiritually, emotionally, and physically.
Faith involves a total commitment of mind and heart in a relationship, whether with God or with another person. And when someone doesn't have faith in you, they may be physically present, but their heart may be elsewhere.
4. HOPE AND ASSURANCE:
The fourth characteristic of faith is hope and certainty. Where there is faith, there is always hope and assurance.
Those who lose hope and confidence will sink into doubt and risk losing their faith. Therefore, do not lose hope or confidence in God, for this is the proof of your faith in God and in his servants.
WHOM CAN WE TRUST?
According to the Bible, faith must be demonstrated in three ways: first, by believing in God; second, by believing in his prophets, his servants; and third, by believing in God's revealed Word, which is the Bible.
Remember that, according to the Bible, believing in God also means believing in his messengers, the prophets. You cannot claim to believe in God without believing in his servants, the prophets; this is contrary to Scripture. If you believe in God, you must also believe in his servants, the prophets. Those who sulk and refuse to accept or believe in the true man of God reject God himself.
2 Chronicles 20:20
The next day, they set out early in the morning for the Desert of Tekoa. As they were leaving, Jehoshaphat stood up and said, “Listen to me, Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem! Trust in the Lord your God, and you will be established; trust in his prophets, and you will succeed.”
