READ: Luke 7:1-10
But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble. :- James 4:6
The centurion stirred up the power of God by walking in great humility. He said that he was not worthy for Jesus to come into his house. That statement was a statement of humility.
Your words reveal your pride or your humility. The centurion’s humility was revealed by his words. Every act of humility is a spiritual step that attracts the power of God. Why is this? God gives grace to the humble. God gives power to the humble. In other words, grace is the power of God. Power was given to this humble centurion when he declared that he was not worthy for Jesus to come into his house. You will stir up the power of God and attract grace when you walk in humility and lowliness.
Perhaps the greatest step to stirring up the anointing in the centurion’s miracle was when he asked Jesus to stand in one place and speak a word. It is easier to believe that something powerful is happening when someone comes to your house. It is easier to believe that the power of God is flowing into your life when hands are laid on you. It is not that easy to believe that a miracle is happening when a word is spoken at a remote location. How does a word spoken in one place affect a situation far away?
Today, you can rise up and operate in great faith by believing in words that are spoken from distant places. Believe when a word is spoken that it is powerful and will come to pass. Great faith stirs up the anointing for miracles.
