The source of all power resides within Our Heavenly Father, the Originator of all things. Thus those who are in power are ultimately operating in some form of derivative power. Exodus chapter 9 illustrates this reality:
13 Then the LORD said to Moses, “Rise early in the morning and stand before Pharaoh, and say to him, ‘Thus says the LORD God of the Hebrews: “Let My people go, that they may serve Me,
14 for at this time I will send all My plagues to your very heart, and on your servants and on your people, that you may know that there is none like Me in all the earth.
15 Now if I had stretched out My hand and struck you and your people with pestilence, then you would have been cut off from the earth.
16 But indeed for this purpose I have raised you up, that I may show My power in you, and that My name may be declared in all the earth.”
FATHER let it be known that all power is derived from HIM and HIS power is greater than anything derived by mankind. Without the Divine Intent of Love, power is corrupted. This is why power from FATHER is never corrupt yet when man has been given power, often it become fully corrupted because he has failed to operate with the proper intent. FATHER continues to have me write on this topic because it is crucial for all of us to fully comprehend Divine Intent in order that we be prepared to walk in the fullness of our individual callings.
If your calling has been assigned by FATHER then HE will provide the power, authority, and resources to bring it to pass. Each of us must focus on our particular place in the Body of Christ and purpose not to veer off and end up in the ditch. FATHER has given us the right to be in the ditch if that is our intent. HE has given us the free will to make our own decisions yet we must understand that there are consequences to those decisions. Why in the world do you think HE would reveal the 613 commandments and statutes if there were no consequences? Being just, HE has provided sufficient warning of the consequences of corruption.
What is the answer to the widespread corruption of mankind today? Love. The Love of FATHER has sufficient power to overcome the corrupted, derivative power of man. The Wisdom from Above overcomes and confuses man’s worldly wisdom. Man’s futile attempts to continuously exercise power and authority over creation always fails and dissipates as FATHER’S power comes on the scene.
Consider the verse in Matthew chapter 10 when Jesus deployed power from Above:
1 And when He had called His twelve disciples to Him, He gave them power over unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal all kinds of sickness and all kinds of disease.
Jesus only did what FATHER instructed Him to do and thus power was given to the disciples over all manner of sickness and disease as well as unclean spirits. As we become fully aligned with FATHER in the fullness of HIS Divine Intent of Love, we should expect to be given this same power and authority. It is critical for you to see this reality if you are to be chosen among the “called”. The corruption of mankind has allowed sickness, disease, and unclean spirits to prevail among many. Do you think there is any sickness or disease in Heaven? Ignorance has allowed derivative power to bring forth corruption and weakness among mankind. The results of this corruption are all around us. Now we see that toxic pharmaceuticals are the default answer to sickness and disease, only further exacerbating the problem.
When Jesus had complete His earthly ministry, He revealed FATHER’S plan to the disciples in Acts chapter 1:
8 But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.”
The result:
Acts 4:33 And with great power the apostles gave witness to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus. And great grace was upon them all.
Paul understood FATHER’S power and authority as he wrote in Ephesian chapter 3:
17 that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; that you, being rooted and grounded in love,
18 may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the width and length and depth and height—
19 to know the love of Christ which passes knowledge; that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.
20 Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us,
Notice that you must be rooted and grounded in Love for the power to work in you. In order to properly comprehend and utilize this power, Love must be your primary motivator. To operate in the pureness of the power from Above, FATHER will required the proper foundation of Love to prevail in your life. If your focus does not include the revelation of Love, you will be limited in the days ahead. I expect that the times we are entering into will require the fullness of power from Above. Don’t let corruption enter in. Your foundation will determine your effectiveness and your fruit.
