Daily Bread – March 13, 2024 (The Fourth Day – Genesis 1:14-19) Acts 1:8 – …but you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes upon you, and you shall be My witnesses both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and unto the farthest reaches of the Earth. The Essential Need To Receive Power To Be Witnesses Today, the light to the nations shines and the call of God sounds forth by the same glorious power of the Holy Spirit. Christ Jesus, the Head of the Church, sits upon His throne, and pours out His anointing of the Holy Ghost and power upon the heads of all who will receive His ministry (Matthew 3:11; Mark 1:8; Luke 3:16; John 1:33; Acts 1:5, 11:16). Through this glory and power, we are equipped to fully represent the King of Kings (Isaiah 42:6, 49:6; Luke 2:32; Acts 13:47, 26:1-3, 26-28; Matthew 5:14). It is not through the wisdom and ability of men that this light of revelation shines, but through the ‘dunamin,’ (power) of the Holy Ghost. For anyone to even dare think they can represent Christ Jesus without being clothed in the Holy Ghost and fire is both naïve and possibly evidence of religious stubbornness. To think we can stand in Christ’s stead and beseech the world to be reconciled to God without being clothed in the ministry of Jesus is total error (2 Corinthians 5:20-21; 1 Corinthians 2:4; 2 Thessalonians 1:5). Christ Jesus reigns today, and we stand proclaiming peace to all in His Name. We command the mountains to be removed, the valleys to be filled, the deserts to bloom like the Garden of Eden, and every prisoner to go free (Acts 26:18; Isaiah 32:15, 61:1-6; Luke 4:18-19).
