SUPERNATURAL SKILL

Often in the work place and in business there is a need for supernatural skill, ability and wisdom on how to go about issues that arise. Problems that come up must be addressed God’s way, or we will never rise above the world. Some may trigger emotions of anger or resentment, but we have to work around our emotions to address the issues. Skill is necessary to handle directors, employees, suppliers, creditors, the bank etc. Thank God that he is the giver of skill.

Ex 35:30-35 talks about men who God endowed with skill for the building of the temple. We are all endowed with the skill to do that which God has called us to do in the market place. Take note that these were marketplace believers. They were craftsmen. God filled Bezalel with “the Spirit of God, with skill, ability and knowledge in all kinds of crafts” May it be the same with us today. May God fill us full of His own Spirit, with skill, ability and knowledge in our particular fields and in our day to day business. On top of giving you the skill he also gives you the ability to teach others. You must always seek to pass on your skills to others. The result was that they became Master craftsmen and designers. You shall become a Master in your own field by virtue of God filling you with His Spirit, skill, ability and knowledge.

At our workplaces, the way we approach and tackle problems must be different from how the world does it. Like Daniel in Ch 1:20 we are to be found 10 times better than the rest. By virtue of supernatural skill, we shall be distinguished from the crowd. Our light will shine. Every problem that arises will be a reason for God to be glorified. We shall be like Solomon in 2 Chron 9:1-2. The Bible says that the queen of Sheba came to him to test him with hard questions. Verse 2 says “Solomon answered all her questions; nothing was too hard for him to explain to her” They shall come to test you with hard questions, but nothing will be too hard for you to explain in Jesus Name!! You are the God ordained problem solver where God has placed you. Do not conform to the image of this world, but be transformed by renewing your mind with his word!

Confession:
I am filled with the Spirit of the Lord, The Spirit of Wisdom and of Understanding, the Spirit of counsel and of power, the Spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the Lord. I am filled with supernatural divine skill and ability in my area of work. As a result no problem is too difficult for me; no question is too hard for me to answer. I have the wisdom to tackle every problem that may arise and to address every issue. My mind is anointed to think higher than my peers. My hands are anointed with extraordinary, supernatural skill. When I get involved in any project, excellence is the guaranteed result. In Jesus Holy Name, So shall it be, for it cannot be otherwise.
