THE ADVANTAGE OF MEETINGS

05/21/2023

"Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching" (Hebrews 10:25).

There is a way to take advantage of every meeting you attend, whether it be a church or business meeting, and it is to pray in tongues ahead of the meeting to get inside information from the Holy Spirit.

Every meeting has a spiritual agenda, whether you know it or not. Companies, countries, and even families have been destroyed by the decisions that emanated from certain meetings because even though it might have been unintended, an agenda was set from the spirit realm.

This is why you cannot be careless about interviews, parties, or any other gatherings of people. Gatherings are opportunities for spirits to prosecute peculiar agendas. 

In the same vein, church gatherings are opportunities to collaborate with the Spirit of God. This is why the Bible says, "not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching" (Hebrews 10:25). There is always an agenda of God concerning every meeting and praying ahead of these meetings does two things. 

First, it enhances your personal experience of the meeting, and then, it enhances the experience of others who will be attending the meeting with you. In many cases, you will receive a word to guide you on how to apply your faith for the meeting. And sometimes, you might receive a word for someone else attending the same meeting as a confirmation.

An example, in the Bible, of the agenda and power of meetings was the elevation of Paul and Barbabas from prophets and teachers to apostles. Acts 13:1-2 says, "Now in the church that was at Antioch there were certain prophets and teachers: Barnabas, Simeon who was called Niger, Lucius of Cyrene, Manaen who had been brought up with Herod the tetrarch, and Saul. As they ministered to the Lord and fasted, the Holy Spirit said, "Now separate to Me Barnabas and Saul for the work to which I have called them." How did the Holy Spirit speak? He spoke through others in the meeting. 

Saints, so much will come to you via meetings in the coming days, and it is key to make a practice of preparing for every meeting by speaking in tongues. 

You are blessed!

Faith-Filled Confession

I take every meeting as an opportunity to collaborate with the Holy Spirit in the prosecution of His agenda. I am not unwise but always discerning what the agenda of God is for every meeting as I prepare in prayer. Glory to God!
