Message: ASCENSION THROUGH PRAYERS!
Text: Acts 10:9-11
Date: 23rd June 2023
Welcome to Transfiguration conference 2023, Day 2 it is a time when we gather at the mountain top to pray and ascend into realms of immortality.
Yesterday we established that the only way to ascend into the realms of God is through genuine heartfelt prayers! And we also said that there are 3 dimensions of prayer (Wilderness dimension, Transfiguration dimension and Agonizing/God’s will dimension)
In Luke 4:14 Jesus returned in the power of the spirit. One of the forces generated at the wilderness altar of Prayer is Power! When a man prays genuinely, he generates Power!
Ladies and gentlemen, it is one thing to know the mind of God for your life and it is another thing to generate the power of God in you to fulfill it. When there is no power you will know the mind of God for your life but can’t fulfill it.
It takes power and that power is generated on the altar of prayer. It is on your inside and you have to pray it out!! – 1 Cor 14:4
There are different kinds of power a man generates at the altar of prayer
Dunamis – miraculous power – power to cause changes – James 5:16 AMP – The heartfelt and persistent prayer of a righteous man is able to accomplish much – it is dynamic and can have tremendous power!
The word DUNAMIS is derived from the word DYNAMITE! Therefore, a prayerful man is a dynamite in the hands of God!
The 2nd kind of power you generate from prayer is Kratos – Eph 6:10
Kratos means strength, force or mighty great power – it is the expression and demonstration of power. When you pray you generate Dunamis but when you want to manifest POWER you manifest Kratos!
In Acts 2 what they received after prayer was DUNAMIS, but in Acts 3 what Peter and John manifested at the beautiful gate was KRATOS! – Aya! Kratos was what raised Jesus from the dead – Eph 1:19-20 KJV/NLT
Now listen: To generate power in the altar of prayer you must be fully focused to pull it out because you are trying to tap and draw from a higher energy level.
One of the reasons why we don’t generate power at the altar of prayer is because we are always distracted and not focused. If you want to generate power you must shut everything and focus on God alone, face the wall, bow your knee, lie down and face eternity to draw power!
After you generate power in the wilderness and pass the temptation of power, fame and anointing then you graduate into the mountain of transfiguration.
