Re-Digging the Wells
January 2013
Genesis 26: 18(KJV) And Isaac digged again the wells of water, which they had digged in the days of Abraham his father; for the Philistines had stopped them after the death of Abraham: and he called their names after the names by which his father had called them.
1. IN 2013 WE MUST DIG AGAIN THE WELL OF PRAYER AND FASTING We need to return to the upper room and learn to tarry until we are endued with power from on high. Jesus told his disciples do not do anything until they were clothed with power. In Acts 1: 13 And when they were come in, they went up into an upper room, ... 14 These all continued with one accord in prayer and supplication, with the women, and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brethren. We must redig the well of both private and corporate prayer. .
2. IN 2013 WE MUST DIG AGAIN THE WELL OF THE BAPTISM IN THE HOLY SPIRIT . The bible says it is not by might or power but by my Spirit. We need to see a restoration of the gifts and power of the Holy Spirit as they saw in the book of Acts. Acts 2:1 And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place. 2 And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting. 3 And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them. 4 And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance. The results of people being filled with the Holy Spirit was they receive power for living. They moved in the supernatural..
3. Lastly, IN 2013 WE MUST DIG AGAIN THE WELL OF EVANGELISM OR SOUL WINNINGWe have allowed the devil to stop up the well of Soul winning. The bible says Mark 16:20 (KJV) And they went forth, and preached every where, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following. Amen. Too many Christians have revised the Great Commission from go and make Disciples, to come to my church. We need to redig the well of happy, joyful witnessing.
It is my prayer that in 2013 you will rediscover the power of the Holy Spirit and become a bold witness for Jesus.
