“And he said, Thy name shall be called no more Jacob, but Israel: for as a prince hast thou power with God and with men, and hast prevailed.” Genesis 32:28 KJV.
One of the most pivotal revelations about life and destiny is the necessity of possessing power with God and with men. Jacob's transformation to Israel marked a turning point; he became a man of stature, influence, and divine authority because he prevailed in the place of prayer and contended with both heavenly and earthly realities. This spiritual authority is echoed in the life of Elijah, who by the power of God shut the heavens and later called down fire (James 5:17–18, 1 Kings 18:36–38). To live a fulfilled life, believers must grow in power, spiritual, moral, and relational, because powerlessness invites affliction and limits divine destiny (Luke 10:19).
The good news is that every believer in Christ has been given access to divine power through the indwelling Holy Spirit. Jesus said, “Ye shall receive power after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you” (Acts 1:8), and you should tarry in God’s presence until you are endued with power from on high (Luke 24:49). David was anointed by God and the anointing caused him to triumph over all his enemies (Psalm 89:20–24). You are not powerless. Walk in the consciousness of your anointing, boldly declare your identity in Christ, and prevail like Jacob. Let the power of God shape your relationships, decisions, and purpose. Power with God gives you access in the spiritual realm, and power with men secures influence for divine assignment on earth. Therefore, rise up in your true identity, enforce your dominion, and fulfill your destiny!
Prophetic word: I declare in agreement with you today, in the name of Jesus, your identity is being transformed; no longer shall you be defined by your struggles or limitations, but by your divine positioning as a prince with power. You shall have power with God and with men. The Lord shall anoint you with fresh oil; every satanic affliction is broken by the authority of the living God. Your name, voice, and presence shall carry weight in the realm of the spirit and in the corridors of men. You shall not be hidden, you shall be seen, heard, and honoured for the glory of God. In Jesus’ name, Amen!
Prayer: Heavenly Father, thank You for revealing to me the secret of power with You and with men. Just as You transformed Jacob into Israel, I ask that You transform my life, my identity, and my destiny. Lord, endow me with power to prevail over sin, over delay, over limitation, and over every satanic harassment. Anoint me afresh with the Holy Spirit and fire. Let the oil that breaks yokes flow over every area of my life. Let the power that raised Christ from the dead quicken my body, my purpose, and my dreams. In Jesus’ mighty name, Amen.
