Luk 4:14.
God intends that all of His children will live by His power. The Bible says in Luk 4:14 that Jesus returned in the power of the spirit, and news of Him spread far and wide.
Jesus had just spent time consecrated in the presence of God. He was recharged and refired so much so that others around Him noticed the difference.
The power of God must be so evident in us that others can see it based on our manifestations. This is what it means to live supernaturally. However it takes consecration, prayer, fasting and spending time in God's Word to generate such power.

Impartation for Elevation
Nov 22, 2012.
Deut 34:9.
Before Moses died he laid hands on Joshua. The Bible records that Joshua received the spirit of wisdom by this Impartation. You see God gives grace/anointing to men and women according to their assignments on earth. God also designed it so that this grace can be imparted. One of the ways this grace can be imparted is by the laying of hands. You can receive an Impartation of the anointing on another's life by the laying of hands.
In order to advance in life, career, and ministry there will be many times when an Impartation is necessary for the next level. You must learn to honor and respect the anointings that you require for your next level. This will pave the way for Impartation.

The Word is the source of Wisdom
Psa 51:6.
"Behold, You desire truth in the inward parts,
And in the hidden part You will make me to know wisdom." NKJV.
God desires that you place the His Word, which is the truth, in your inner man, i.e. in your spirit. You do this by reading, hearing, and meditating on the Word of God until you get to the point of revelation.
Then when you face a situation, God will stir up wisdom based on the planted Word in your spirit man. Therefore your manifestation of wisdom is determined by the amount of God's Word that you have deposited in your spirit.
So plant the Word in your heart and you will walk in wisdom at the appointed time.
Revelation, the Path to Promotion
Eph 1:17.
It is time to stop being grounded by the wrong attitude to the Word, tradition, and mental assent (religion), and to be elevated by revelation.
Revelation of God's Word sets you free Jn 8:32. When you have revelation of God's Word in a particular area eg health, finances, victory, etc. you own it. You can no longer be held back in that area of your life.
In order to live a supernatural life with signs and wonders in evidence (outstanding results) you must walk in revelation.

Your Supernatural Capacity to Love

You are supernaturally loved by God. Once you have a revelation of God's love for you, you will love Him. Because He loved you first He gave His only Son so that you can be redeemed. Once you identify with Christ You have the supernatural capacity to love Him and to love others.

God Loves You
Mt 7:11.
God cares for you affectionately and watchfully. His love for you can't be comprehended naturally. If natural man can care for his children so much that he gives them gifts. How much more will God give us the good things that we ask for. He loves us so much that He only gives us what is good for us.
As a child of God, your job is to trust God and cast your cares. Trust God to provide for you supernaturally.

Choose Life not Death

If you are God-inside minded and conscious of the life of God inside you then it will reflect is your words and actions. There will be no room for carnality.
When you are carnally minded then your results will tend to death, corruption and in the direction of the curse Deut 30:19. This is why many lives appear to be stagnant devoid of progress.

Lasting Success
Allow God to lead you into lasting success. Pro 16:1-3.
Pro 16:1-3 The preparations of the heart belong to man, But the answer of the tongue is from the Lord. All the ways of a man are pure in his own eyes, But the Lord weighs the spirits. Commit your works to the Lord and your thoughts will be established.
There is a limit to how much planning you can do. Everyone can identify with this. Recall when you tried planning for an event or for an upcoming situation. Did you try to make a list of all the different outcomes or situations? Were you able to identify every single scenario? If you have never done this, you can try this scenario now. You will find out that there is a limit to your reasoning ability. This is because you cannot possibly know everything.
Even when you bring together a large group of people for this exercise the group is still limited in its ability to know everything. In fact there is a critical number of people. Beyond this number, the effectiveness of the group begins to diminish rapidly. God is the only person who can be everywhere at the same time. He is the only person who knows everything. This is why He is the only person who can identify all the relevant scenarios for any given situation.
The NLT translation of Pro 16:1 states: We can make our own plans, but the Lord gives the right answer. If you are seeking the right answer or the right outcome you must learn to commit your plans, tasks and projects into the hands of God. You must allow God to lead you into the right solutions.
Today make a decision to turn over everything that you are responsible and accountable for into the hands of God and watch Him turn everything that you do into a success. ...another excerpt from my latest book.

What is Leadership?
A lot of people confuse leadership with titles. A title does not confer leadership on anyone. Many of the greatest leaders who have ever lived started leading others before they ever got a title. The greatest leader of all, Jesus did not have a formal title. He did not introduce Himself as Pastor, Reverend, Prophet, etc. You can be a leader at any level in any organization. The true measure of leadership is the ability to influence.
Leadership is akin to the navigation system in many cars that surveys the land and considers various options before deciding on a route. The navigation system seeks to influence the driver it does not dominate the driver and force him in a particular direction. The best navigation systems also consider potential obstacles and sources of delay (e.g. traffic), and they navigate around these. They are constantly calculating the best route. Even when the driver strays off the pre-determined route they do not halt the car suddenly rather they re-calculate the route and proceed to get the driver back on track. This is one of the best illustrations of leadership. ...an excerpt from my latest book.

Life of God
Jn 10:10.
Jesus said that He came to impart the life of God in us; not just in small measure but in an a unlimited measure. He wants us to be full of the life of God to the point of overflow.
We get a measure of this life at new birth. We must continue to cultivate this life by exposing ourselves to right materials, staying in the presence of God, etc. This life must overflow to the point that it is affecting everything around you.

The Power of God
Eph 3:20.
God is able to do much more than we can think or imagine through His power working in us. That power is resident in us through the Holy Spirit. We must engage the Holy Spirit and in so doing the power of God is maximized.

Citizen of the Kingdom
Rom 3:21-31.
Eph 2:12...in the fallen state you were aliens to the commonwealth of Israel and strangers to the covenant of promise. Fallen man has no citizenship and no legal right.
As a foreign national there is less confidence at border immigration and customs than a citizen. However as a citizen of the USA if you don't know your rights then you will have the same level of confidence as an immigrant.
Gal 4:1.
If you don't know your rights then you are like a baby who doesn't yet qualify for his inheritance; he is no different than a servant in this regard.
If you have a revelation of who you are are and your rights as a child of God then you will walk in dominion.
"You are more than a conqueror" will become a reality to you irrespective of what you face.
You must act in boldness based on your status as the righteous. You have God living on your inside with access to all of His power and ability.

Patience and Endurance
Heb 10:36.
The word patience/endurance is from the Greek: ὑπομονή* which means to wait on God, to cleave to God, to stand fast, expect, persevere, etc. it speaks of the capacity to continue to bear up under difficult circumstances, "waiting endurance," or "enduring perseverance" (JFB), and endurance inspired by hope in our Lord Jesus Christ.
I must be patient to obtain the promise of God after doing His will.
There is a time gap between when I have done what God instructed and when I receive the reward. Patience is active, and bridges that gap no matter how small or large.

Supernatural Victories

If you are God-inside minded and conscious of the life of God inside you then it will reflect is your words and actions. There will be no room for carnality.
When you are carnally minded then your results will tend to death, corruption and in the direction of the curse. This is why many lives appear to be stagnant devoid of progress.
God intended that you and I live in victory every day of our lives.

Sudden and Immediate Manifestation of God
Acts 16:25-26.
There are situations that require the sudden and immediate manifestation of God's power.
The power of God was brought to bear in Paul and Silas' situation in response to their praise and worship of God, and their expectations. They chose to praise and worship in the face of a seemingly impossible situation.
When God's presence fills you and your environment up nothing can contain it. The foundations of the issues will be shaken up suddenly. And immediately great doors will be opened and all of the things holding you down/chained will be loosed. All by the supernatural power that accompanies His presence.

Supernatural Living
Psa 82:6.
God created man in His own image. Man was created with the creative power of God to function by this supernatural power of God. Just like a child resembles his father likewise as children of God we resemble God.
You must live a supernatural life. It is your heritage.
