The Power Edge

  • For I also am a man placed under authority, having under myself soldiers. I tell this one, 'Go!' and he goes; and to another, 'Come!' and he comes; and to my servant, 'Do this,' and he does it.' When Jesus heard these things, he marveled at him, and turned and said to the multitude who followed him, 'I tell you, I have not found such great faith, no, not in Israel.' Those who were sent, returning to the house, found that the servant who had been sick was well. Luke 7:9 WEB

    We once bought a huge computer server on eBay and had to pay over a hundred dollars in shipping charges. It was a Dell Power Edge R900 and it weighed 92 pounds. When I unpacked it and started it up, it immediately died with a processor failure. It had four quad core xeons and it appeared that one was bad. I tried everything that a technician would do during the day like reseating the processors and memory banks, reseting the bios, but it continued to die with the same processor failure each time.

    I called the seller's tech support and they walked me through a few things over the phone, then decided that we would need to ship it back to them. When I got off the phone, I sat down and stared it frustrated, and dreading shipping the heavy thing back. Something in me said 'pray' so I laid hands on the computer and prayed over it a moment. I pressed the start button again and it worked perfectly. It is still in use today. Christians have their own power edge, praying in the name of Jesus.

    While Jesus was on the way to the Centurion's house, they brought Him word that He did not have to come, but merely speak the word because the Centurion recognized the chain of command. He believed that if Jesus gave the command, that his servant would be healed just as if he told a soldier to do something and they did it.

    Faith is the complete trust or confidence in someone or something. Jesus was amazed at this Centurion's great faith, but in His own hometown, He was amazed at their lack of faith (Mark 6:6). These are the only records of Jesus being amazed at something in scripture. Faith is the currency of heaven. When you pray, believe. True faith builds over time just like trust in a relationship. I find that our faith is built just as much in the work place as it is in church, for our God is super, natural.

    Prayer: Heavenly Father please speak to me in a way that I understand and show Yourself mighty in my life. Please let me be a beacon of hope to those around me and to walk in Your power and anointing, right here, and right now, in the name of Jesus Christ I pray.

    Note: "And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord's people" (Ephesians 6:18).

I love this devotional! I have a Dell Optiplex 980 With a I5 processor in it, it was given to me because the owner couldn't make it work, and he gave me a 128gb SSD, I loaded this machine with a fresh windows 7 installation and it ran fine for a bit then it would just lose its mind, I finally gave up on it, I didn't pray over it, and I should have, Now Im thinking I will do that this weekend ;). Its really cool that Jesus loves us so much that he will do things for us like this. Once I had a fleeting though that I wished I had a 1tb Sata Hard Drive  for storage, A week later a lady gave me her dead computer, The mother board was fried, She told me to just keep or get rid of it, it had a western digital 1tb drive in it, just for you know who. Jesus cares even about the small stuff, His Love never ceases to  amaze me. Thank You Lord Jesus We Love You!!!

Brother Dion, I enjoyed the devotional this morning. In particular, one point made about the scarce few times Jesus expressed amazement.The word, "amazing" is one of the most overused so far in this century. .........Faith really is amazing. God's grace is truly amazing. Sometimes sermons are amazing. But  In an increasingly hedonistic, and consumerist society, it seems so many things are tagged with that label. So forgive me all of You over stimulated, pop-culture enthusiasts. While that cheesecake is good, I would stop short of calling it amazing. Those shoes are not amazing. Not even that car is amazing. Now, salvation through Our Lord Jesus, that is amazing! ....Pardon me Brother, didn't mean to launch into a sermon.     : )
