THE HAND OF GOD 1

1 Kings 18:46 AND THE HAND OF THE LORD WAS ON ELIJAH; and he girded up his loins, and ran before Ahab to the entrance of Jezreel.

From the scriptures, we can see Elijah received divine strength when the hand of God came upon him.

• The hand of God signifies the divine power.
• The hand of God signifies the anointing of the Holy Spirit.
• The hand of God signifies the wisdom of the Holy Spirit.
• The hand of God signifies the glory of the Godhead.
• The hand of God signifies His favour.
• The hand of God signifies the presence of God.
• The hand of God outpours His grace upon an individual.
• The hand of God signifies the speed of the Lord.
• The hand of the Lord signifies the blessings of God.
• The hand of God enables ministers of God to grow speedily in the realms of the Spirit.
• The hand of God makes ministers of God stronger than their enemies.
• The hand of God makes His children sing powerful music.
• The hand of God makes His children write many books.
• The hand of God makes men do supernatural things.
• The hand of God empowers men to operate in the gift of the Spirit.
• The hand of God delivers us from the traps of the enemy.
• The hand of God makes us enter the realms of the prophet.
• The hand of God makes our spirit connects to the throne room of God.

When the hand of God came upon Prophet Elijah, he outran the King Ahab. Israel suffered drought for three years and Elijah prayed that the rain should descend. At the Word of Prophet Elijah, the rain came down. Ahab tried to escape the storm but he couldn’t. The Spirit of the Lord gave speed to Elijah, and he outran the chariots of Ahab.

God knows how to increase our speed when we need a boost. God makes the impossible possible. How can a man outrun chariots? King Ahab left Elijah to walk all the way to Jezreel but God showed King Ahab that He can outrun Him. King Ahab gave a little respect to Elijah but God honoured Elijah. God can upgrade and boost the ministry of His servant miraculously. Men will suspect our victory and success because they cannot explain the ways of God. There is no way a man can outrun chariots. God made Elijah outrun the chariot of Ahab!

• Apostle Paul was the least of the apostles yet he did greater works than all the apostles because the hand of God was upon him
• David killed a great number of enemies compared King Saul because the hand of God was upon David.
• Samson received supernatural strength from God. He possessed the strength of angels and strong animals to defeat his enemies because the hand of God was upon him.
• Apostle Peter became bold and courageous on the day of Pentecost because the hand of God was upon him.
• Stephen did not fear death because the hand of God was upon him.

Don’t be jealous when ministers of God grow speedily because the hand of the Lord is upon them. Never in your life, discredit and oppose people when you see them advancing because the hand of God may rest upon them.

• The hand of God will rest upon you if your heart is right with God.
• The hand of God will rest upon you if you reverence men of God from your heart.
• The hand of God will rest upon you if you honour men of God with what you have from your heart.
• The hand of God will rest upon you if you fast and pray.
• The hand of God will rest upon you if you set yourself apart for Jesus Christ.
• The hand of God will rest upon you if you promote the work of God with what you have.
• The hand of God will rest upon you if you pray more in the Spirit.
• The hand of God will rest upon you if you believe, feed and teach the Word.
• The hand of God will rest upon you if you repent and accept Jesus Christ as your Saviour and the Lord of your life.
