Your biggest fear is that you are not powerful enough, smart enough, rich enough or connected enough to drive the changes you want. This is a common mistake. You should realise that when you respond to God, God will empower you. As it is written, “he gives power to the faint, and to him who has no might he increases strength” (Isaiah 40:29). God can grant you the spiritual might, intellectual might, scientific might, technological might, industrial might, economic might, political might, governmental might and military might you need to succeed at whatever mission he has called you to do. The might of the Lord will come upon you when you act in the will of God.
Let us recall the words of Abraham Lincoln, “Let us have faith that right makes might, and in that faith, let us, to the end, dare to do our duty as we understand it”. When you commit to doing the right thing, the might you need will come. David was a shepherd boy when the anointing of a king came on him. The spiritual anointing might have been given to him instantly. However, he did not have the economic, political or military might required to operate as the King of Israel. God increased David’s might, he made a king out of him. If you are living right with God, the might will come upon you.
If you perceive that God wants you to operate as a salt and light of the world, all you have to do is accept the request. When you surrender to God. You will be able to use the power of God as your own. This is the secret of all achievement in God. You will never be able to run a divine assignment by your own strength, smarts or other resources. God will bring you to the place of humility to see that forces stronger than you are working for you. When you identify a need in your world, and you make yourself available to the Lord. The spirit will come upon you and you will get everything you need to get the job done.
