THE MAN GOD USES

Jehovah God is a Spirit, being a Spirit, any man whom He has Chosen to use for His service, whether as a messenger of deliverance, which always couples with God’s wonder working power; or a 0s a prophet of which such one must be a Spiritual man; or as a gospel preacher, such as an apostle, an evangelist, a pastor, a teacher etc. the ministry which always couples with miracles, signs and wonders; He (God) will first of all fill or endue that His chosen servant with His Holy Spirit of promise, the power from heaven above. When the man has received the Holy Spirit, then he has received the highest power from heaven above which will enable him do the work he is called for. From the moment he, the chosen servant of God received the Holy Spirit, that is, from that moment the Holy Spirit, entered in that servant of God, he has automatically become a Spiritual man, a Spiritual house, the temple of the Holy Spirit, and the temple of the living God.

When our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ came into this world through Mary’s womb, He came with full body, that is, He came with the whole material part of man. So, during His Ministry, although He received the Holy Spirit, nevertheless, He used His own eyes to see, He used his ears to hear, He used His hands to work, He used His mouth to speak, in preaching, in teaching, prayers and healing; he used His feet to walk, He used His buttocks to sit down. So, Jesus used every material part of His body for work in His Ministry.

When the Holy Spirit came, He did not come in bodily form, that is the Holy Spirit did not come with every material part of man as Jesus did, rather, He came in the form of wind. John 3:8, Acts 2:2.
For this reason, any man whom Jehovah God has chosen to use for His service, and has filled or endued the man with His Holy Spirit; then that Holy Spirit that dwells in that servant of God, will be using every material part of his body as His instrument. In other words, that Holy Spirit that entered as wind with into the heart of the servant of God, will be using his heart as His dwelling place; from there the Holy Spirit will be producing good and sound wisdom, knowledge and understanding, with sound faith with which that servant of God shall be using in the service of God. Also, the Holy Spirit will be using his eyes to see, using his feet to walk, even using his mouth to speak, in preaching, in teaching, in prayer, in healing and singing. Using his hands for work, using his feet to walk, even using the whole body of the servant of God as His instrument in the service of God. Hereby, that servant of God becomes the man God uses. Carefully read through 1 Peter 2:5, 1 Cor. 2:15, 3:16-17, 6:19-20, 2 Cor. 6:16, Rom. 8:1-2, 14 and 12:1-2.

The Holy Spirit which is the power of God from heaven above is the license and or the authority which Jehovah God gives first to anyone whom He has chosen to use for His service.

The Holy Spirit is the energetic power that forces out the powerful and effective word of God from the mouth of the messenger of deliverance, the prophet and or the gospel preacher; when delivering God’s message, when prophesying, and when preaching the gospel.

The Holy Spirit is the energetic power that enables the messenger of deliverance and the gospel preacher to perform miracles. That is, to cast out demons or evil spirits such as insanity, epilepsy, “ogbanje” spirit or water spirits, spirits of witchery and wizardry, spirit of divination or soothsaying; and to heal all kinds of sicknesses and diseases.

The Holy Spirit teaches the chosen servant of God how to pray effectual fervent prayer of faith. Teaches him how to preach, what to preach and where to preach. The Holy Spirit makes the chosen servant of God to know i and understand God’s voice and signs which indicates, dictates and directs what to do, where to do it when to do it and how to do it.
