NOVEMBER 2012 MAJESTIC KINGDOMIMPARTATION Pastor Ambrose Nyangao [All scripture quotes from NKJV unless otherwise stated]
This is a great month and we give God the glory for the privilege to enter this month and experience the Majestic Kingdom Impartation.
God is a giver of good gifts. James 1:17-18 says of this: • Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights, • With whom there is no variation or shadow of turning. • Of His own will He brought us forth by the word of truth, that we might be a kind of firstfruits of His creatures
Whatever we are or have is a gift from God and imparted to us by the Holy Spirit. God the father is the one who reveals the divine assignment. The Lord Jesus Christ authorizes the assignment and the Holy Spirit imparts the assignment to us and through us.
We see this in the life of Joseph. God had revealed to Joseph through visions and dreams the divine assignment that he had for him. Though Joseph went through all kinds of challenges trying to share this assignment and even seeing the assignment come to pass.
We are told that ‘the Lord was with Joseph and he prospered’ [Gen 39:23]. I believe that behind the scenes, the Holy Spirit was executing the divine assignment in the life of Joseph as he walked and trusted God.
The same will happen to you. The Lord prayed for us regarding the Holy Spirit. We are told in John 14:16-17: • And I will pray the Father, and He will give you another helper, that He may abide with you forever, • The Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees Him nor knows Him; but you know Him, for He wells in you and will be in you.
We must be acquainted with the Holy Spirit for He is the one who imparts the purposes of God to us and through us.
Jesus again said [John 16:13, 15]: • However, when he, the Spirit of truth, has come, he will guide you into all truth; • For he will not speak on his own authority, but whatever he hears he will speak; and He will tell you things to come • All things that the Father has are mine. Therefore I said that He will take of mine and declare it to you.
The platform of impartation The redemption of Jesus Christ is the platform of impartation. Without the death, burial and resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit cannot have the ability to impart the assignment of God into our lives.
This redemption gave us the opportunity to be reconciled to the Father. • This redemption gave us the avenue of getting our sins forgiven. • This redemption gave us the grace to be saved • This redemption gave us the privilege to inherit eternal life
The key to impartation: • The key of hearing the word – Rom 10:17 • The key of faith – Heb 11:6 • The key of prayer – Lk 11: 13 • The key of the spirit – Acts 1:8
The object of impartation: • To receive all that God, through Christ, purchased for us. • To receive the ability to accomplish the purposes of God for us. • To receive the grace that makes heaven’s resources ours • To receive the power to be witnesses of Christ to all nations
The elements of impartation • The impartation of destiny – John 16:13-14 • The impartation of ability – Isa 11:1-3 • The impartation of grace – Acts 4:33 • The impartation of righteousness – Rom 5:17
The purposes of impartation • To bring glory to the Father – 1 Cor 10:31 • To establish the name of the Son – Mk 16:15-18 • To acknowledge the power of the Holy Spirit – Acts 1:8
The Holy Spirit is the key to all this happening and that is why we must get into fellowship with the Holy Spirit and know what He is imparting to us in this season to make a difference for the Kingdom of God. God wants us to cultivate:
Our fellowship with the Holy Spirit II Cor 13:14 AMP: “The grace (favor and spiritual blessing) of the Lord Jesus Christ and the love of God and the presence and fellowship (the communion and sharing together and participation) in the Holy Spirit be with you all. Amen (so be it).”
Our relationship with the Holy Spirit John 14:16-17 AMP: “And I will ask the Father, and He will give another comforter (counselor, Helper, Intercessor, Advocate, Strengthener, and Standby), that He may remain with you forever.”
Our partnership with the Holy Spirit Acts 4:31, 33 AMP: “And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and they continued to speak the Word of God with freedom and boldness and courage. And with great strength and ability and power the apostles delivered their testimony to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus, and great grace (loving-kindness and favor and goodwill) rested richly upon them all.”
As you can see, this majestic impartation is vital for a dynamic life of witness. To receive this impartation we must:
Thirst: “Jesus said, if anyone thirsts, let him come to me and drink. He who believes in me, as the scripture has said, out of his heart will flow rivers of living water.’ But this he spoke concerning the spirit, whom those believing in Him would receive.” [John7:37-39.
Hunger: “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be filled.” [Mt:5-6]
Ask: “If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask Him!” [Lk 11:13]
Believe: “Repent, and let everyone of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. For the promise is to you and to your children, and to all who are afar off, as many as the Lord our God will call.” [Acts 2:38,39]
Act: “But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit comes upon you; and you shall be witnesses to me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.” [Acts 1:8]
This is the word of impartation. Read this article again and again. Faith comes by hearing and hearing the word of God
ARISE AND SHINE. YOUR LIGHT HAS BEEN IMPARTED TO YOU.
