"His brightness was like the light; He had rays flashing from His hand, And there His power was hidden" (Habakkuk 3:4).
If you are a believer in Jesus Christ, there is profound power at your disposal, and this is why Jesus would say, "And these signs will follow those who believe: In My name...they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover" (Mark 16:17-18). What's more, He wasn't only referring to sick people. He said, "They shall lay hands on the sick..." which could imply sick businesses, cars, economies, cities, etc. When we, as believers, lay our hands, we can expect recovery to follow.
As a child of God, not every problem needs an expert when you are present. According to 1 Corinthians 6:17, "But he who is joined to the Lord is one spirit with Him," signifying that you are joined to the Lord, and when you stretch hands to heal, it is as though the Almighty is stretching His hands. Hallelujah!
Right where you are, I want you to take a bill, credit card statement, job notice, medical report, bank statement, or repossession notice, lay your hands upon it, declare a state of well-being in the name of Jesus, and put it away.
Recognize that there is enough power in your hands to light up an entire city or transform your entire neighborhood. Maybe you have a dependent who has been troublesome or having trouble at school. Here's what you must do: lay hands on that child and prophesy what the Lord has said about that one.
In this Year of the God-kind, you must learn to lay hands and speak the Word of God, particularly with things where your jurisdiction is absolute. Learn to lay hands on your spouse, children, defective belongings, and home, and when you do, speak God's Word to direct the power where it is required. Remember that Jesus made you a king and a priest in the presence of the Father, and "where the word of a king is, there is power; And who may say to him, "What are you doing?" (Ecclesiastes 8:4).
God bless you!
Faith-Filled Confession
The divine life flows through every part of my being. My limbs serve as conduits for the power of the Holy Ghost. Hence, as I lay hands and speak healing, imperfections are nullified, leading to the restoration of health and proper functioning for both beings and things. In Jesus' name. Amen.
