Knowing The Lord 2

Sandra lived in a neighborhood where there were many witches but she did not know this, but as she began to grow in her knowledge of the Lord and of His voice, she realized that her neighborhood was bewitched, and many people who lived in that neighborhood were under the manipulation of the spirit of immorality. Most of her unmarried neighbors were living in sin and shame (with unmarried partners). She also found that previously, she struggled unusually to keep herself pure in that area. But as she started to talk more to the Lord(and not merely send prayers to heaven), her discernment became heightened and she could perceive the bewitchment in her neighborhood. She broke herself free from it and started praying for her neighbors who had been overpowered by that spell, some of whom used to be fervent believers before they moved to that neighborhood.

Sandra became a light in her community because she became deliberate in her pursuit of the knowledge of God.

One of the benefits of growing in the knowledge of God is that His grace in our lives will be multiplied, and our spiritual gifts are powered by this grace (Romans 12:6). The grace of God is not just God’s unmerited Favour towards us, it is the power of God at work in the life of those who have received this unmerited favor. It can be multiplied and can be great upon people(see Acts 4:33).

Go into today desiring an increase of the grace of God upon your life. This grace is what empowers us to fulfill our destinies in God, and the secret to this grace increasing is a growing knowledge of the Lord.

Prayer: Lord, help me know you more and walk in greater grace. Amen.
