I was inspired by the Lord to take a walk with my wife almost at midnight a few years ago. As we walked through the bank of the Mashaven river close to our home. We suddenly heard a humming sound coming from a very pitch dark corner along the pathway. I looked and behold an asian man in a strange posture conjuring and invoking spirits. Friends, it was pretty cold and this man was sitting with his face towards the river.
As soon as I saw the man, the Lord spoke the following words into my heart “men in darkness are able to give up their comfort to perpetrate their evil and satanic agenda but my people look for every form of excuses to avoid leaving their comfort zone to stand in sacrifice and reclaim their city, their families and the land by the power at work in them.”
Acts chapter 10 tells us of how Cornelius, a gentile centurion was consistent in sacrifice to God over a period of time even when he did not know the Lord. He prayed and gave alms and even fasted until his sacrifice provoked a physical visitation of an angel who came specially from heaven to give him the address of a man called Peter in Joppa that he never met nor heard of. My dear, how many tongue speaking believers have experienced a physical intervention or visitation of angels in our generation like Cornelius did? What positioned him for such divine encounter? His Sacrifice!
Dearly beloved, what is the demand of sacrifice that heaven has laid upon your heart? I want to remind you by these words that therein lies the power of God.
