“For the kingdom of God is not in word, but in
power.” 1 Corinthians 4:20 KJV
Kingdom power is the divine ability to manifest God’s rule on earth through the anointing and authority given to His children. Jesus demonstrated this power throughout His ministry, healing the sick, casting out demons, and raising the dead (Matthew 10:1, Luke 10:19). He declared in Matthew 12:28, “But if I cast out devils by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God is come unto you.” This shows that the kingdom of God is not just a concept but a reality that is enforced through power. Elijah displayed this kingdom power when he called down fire from heaven (1 Kings 18:36-38), proving that the God of Israel reigns. Likewise, Moses operated in kingdom power when he parted the Red Sea, demonstrating that God’s authority overrides natural laws (Exodus 14:21-22).
The apostles continued this legacy of power, as seen in Acts 4:33: “And with great power gave the apostles witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and great grace was upon them all.” Kingdom power is essential for advancing God’s will, and it is accessed through a deep relationship with the Holy Spirit (Zechariah 4:6). Jesus instructed His disciples to wait for this power before embarking on their mission (Luke 24:49, Acts 1:8), signifying that without it, establishing the kingdom would be impossible. Even Paul, known for his profound teachings, emphasized that his ministry was not based on human wisdom but on demonstrations of the Spirit’s power (1 Corinthians 2:4-5). Therefore, every believer must seek to walk in this power through faith, prayer, and obedience to the Holy Spirit, ensuring that God's kingdom is not just preached but revealed in tangible manifestations.
Prophetic word: The Lord says, "My power is within you, and I have anointed you for such a time as this. You will not labor in vain, for My Spirit will go before you, breaking barriers and making crooked paths straight. Do not fear, for I am strengthening you to be My witness. The same power that raised Jesus from the dead is working in you, equipping you to establish My kingdom in your sphere of influence. Signs and wonders shall follow you, and My presence will confirm My word through you. Walk boldly, for I have clothed you with power from on high, and My anointing upon you will break every yoke. I am stirring up a fresh fire within you—receive it and move forward in My authority!" (Luke 10:19, Acts 1:8, Romans 8:11, Isaiah 10:27).”
Prayer: Heavenly Father, I thank You for the power of Your kingdom that is at work in me. I receive the fresh anointing of the Holy Spirit to walk in dominion and establish Your will on earth. Let Your power flow through me to heal the sick, cast out devils, and bring transformation wherever I go. I reject fear, doubt, and complacency—I choose to walk in boldness, demonstrating Your kingdom with signs and wonders. Lord, let the same power that worked in Jesus be evident in my life. Fill me with wisdom, revelation, and supernatural strength to be an effective witness. I declare that I am anointed for this season, and nothing shall hinder me from fulfilling my divine assignment. In Jesus' mighty name, Amen!
