We want to explore the faith and prayer keys to growth and increase. Growth is a supernatural process; no man knows how it comes about. It is a mystery that must be explored.
The Bible says,
[Isaiah 60:22 KJV]“A little one shall become a thousand, and a small one a strong nation: I the Lord will hasten it in his time”.
I want to share with you the seven mysteries of supernatural increase.
- Vision
- God’s glory
- Divine direction
- Atmosphere of gratitude
- Drastic supernatural Manifestations relevant to your locality
- Supernatural invitation and gathering
- Wisdom to build structures and systems to maintain the increase
These are the prayer and faith keys to supernatural increase and growth. There are so many things we cannot achieve by the arm of flesh. We need the supernatural touch for the supernatural increase.
1. Vision
We want to spend the coming days praying and believing that God will supernaturally open the eyes of the HighCity to see what He is about to do among us and with us.
We must pray and believe God to open our eyes to His visions and to see His goals. Until your spirit and mind receive it, you cannot pursue it. You must be persuaded by the visions of God to know where to move and what to do.
2. God’s glory
The second thing we want to pray and believe God for is the manifestations and presence of God’s glory in our lives and specific chapels.
We must arise to pray and mention the names of our chapels and plead for the supernatural presence and glory of God to be manifested there.
Pray and believe that the manifest glory of God will draw many to this place to worship and serve our God.
3. Divine direction
We want to pray that the Angel of the Lord shall manifest Himself to us and help us to walk in the ways of God. Pray and believe God for divine directions and instructions. When the Lord Jesus directed the people to fill the pots with water and draw out, they drank wine. They drank choice wine.
4. Atmosphere of gratitude
We want to pray and believe God that our hearts and meetings will be filled with an atmosphere of praise or worship and gratitude.
As in the days of Jeremiah, may He turn again our captivity and cause praise and worship to emanate from among us.
[Jeremiah 30:18-21 KJV] “Thus saith the Lord ; Behold, I will bring again the captivity of Jacob’s tents, and have mercy on his dwellingplaces; and the city shall be builded upon her own heap, and the palace shall remain after the manner thereof.”
“And out of them shall proceed thanksgiving and the voice of them that make merry: and I will multiply them, and they shall not be few; I will also glorify them, and they shall not be small.”
“Their children also shall be as aforetime, and their congregation shall be established before me, and I will punish all that oppress them”
“And their nobles shall be of themselves, and their governor shall proceed from the midst of them; and I will cause him to draw near, and he shall approach unto me: for who is this that engaged his heart to approach unto me? saith the Lord.”
Praise and a merry heart is a secret to multiplication. May the praise of God rise from among us!
5. Drastic supernatural manifestations
We want to continue to pray and believe God that He shall stir up drastic supernatural manifestations that are relevant to our area of operation.
May the Good Lord show Himself strong. There are certain manifestations that only God can initiate. May Jehovah do a work among us that will marvel and confound nations!
6. Supernatural invitation and gathering
Let us pray and believe that the same God who sent the winds to gather the quails in the wilderness shall blow His wind again and invite people to worship in our chapel.
May He send people to come and do business with us and may He bring the supernatural increase. May the Lord increase us with men like a flock.
7. Wisdom to build structures and systems
Finally, join me as we pray and believe God to help us build systems and structures that will sustain the growth and increase He brings.”
“As in the days of the apostles in Acts 6, may the Lord bless us with men filled with the Holy Ghost and with wisdom to practically minister to needs and build systems that will sustain growth.
I have no doubt that God will bring us supernatural natural increase as we wait on Him. Say “Amen” to that!
