CLAIMING ABILITY THROUGH CHRIST

My Dear Friends in Christ,

    "The Leaven" greets you in the Name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ on this inspirational Pentecostal morning.

 

    Reading the passage from Acts of the Apostles, appropriately selected for the observance of the Day, we are enlightened with a particular message with the coming of the Holy Spirit.

    We are told that the Spirit gave each one ability.  Thus God, in the power of the Holy Spirit removed all the disabilities among the discipleship and equipped them with strength, and hope. 

 

    Yet we live in a society where some people, unnecessarily and enthusiastically claim disability.  God is a God of power, and He is ready to remove the 'dis' from our ability., leaving us capable and empowered.

Every blessing.

 

Yours in Christ,

Augustine Joseph
