Beloved, it is time to be built up in the Spirit.
I want my people to move in power and precision, being sharp and activated in preparation for the times ahead. I want you to desire the gifts of the Holy Spirit for these will continually strengthen and equip you for the days ahead. I will give you them in great measures this season. I am building my body up in me to go forth as a strong army, mighty in me. Therefore, desire the gifts, ask me for them, and I will give you them enthusiastically and in great measures!
Activation: First, take a moment to read 1 Corinthians 12 and ask Holy Spirit to highlight the gifts that He would like you desire or to be sharpened in. Write them down then also add the gift/s you would like to have, then pray this prayer:
Heavenly Father, thank you that you give good gifts to your children. I ask you to give me the gift of …(insert gift/s)… . and help me to grow in ….(insert gift/s)…. I ask to receive them in great measures, in Jesus name, Amen.
Believe in faith that you have received them and watch how God grows these gifts in your life!
1 Corinthians 12:7-11 (NIV)
Now to each one the manifestation of the Spirit is given for the common good. To one there is given through the Spirit a message of wisdom, to another a message of knowledge by means of the same Spirit, to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healing by that one Spirit, to another miraculous powers, to another prophecy, to another distinguishing between spirits, to another speaking in different kinds of tongues, and to still another the interpretation of tongues. All these are the work of one and the same Spirit, and he distributes them to each one, just as he determines.
Matthew 7:9-11 (NIV)
Which of you, if your son asks for bread, will give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a snake? If you, then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good gifts to those who ask him!
