And I will bring a morsel of bread, that you may refresh your hearts. After that you may pass by, inasmuch as you have come to your servant.” They said, “Do as you have said.” Genesis 18:5

Our participation in God’s plan is not a simple movement or response to action, but something of great importance, because although it is the Lord who works marvels and wonders in our midst, He needs our cooperation to carry out His plans and deeds.

This is incredible and is in the Scriptures (Mark 16:15; Acts 1:8; Malachi 3:10). The salvation of the lost depends on our being instruments, our tithes, our offerings and our consecration to the Omnipotent. However, it is important to know that He cannot use us if we are in sin.

God refers to us as coworkers (1 Corinthians 3:9) and certainly this is no flattery intended in its language but a real truth that if extended and practiced will take us on to greater projects. Therefore, consecrate yourself to Him and avoid any involvement with practices condemned by the Scriptures. Behaving this way you will not extend powerless hand that are soiled with filth. We are the only ones to be held responsible and accountable for executing the divine project in our generation and we must not dare to fail.

During Jesus’s earthly ministry, had He not used his authority to expel demons, the bedeviled and oppressed would not have been delivered. In the same manner if we do not believe in God’s power nor command the demonic forces to retreat, we will live among people who behind their attitude will be backed up by evil doing spirits that are ready to kill, to rob and to destroy.  (John 10:10) Our responsibility is great and to fulfill it means to be always with a full cellar to be used at the proper time.

During the Middle Ages or the Dark Ages God did not save or deliver the multitude of sufferers because of the great epidemics, pestilence and plagues that decimated the populations’ lives, because no one offered to be a bridge or intercessor or instrument in God’s hands. Likewise, in our present days, if we do not rise up to expel diseases like cancer, zika virus, chikungunya and other evils, the people will not be delivered. Because we belong to the Lord we are empowered with authority to pray and recruit His angels to act in our favor.

Abraham made a different declaration to the angels of God that went to him when the days had warmed up. He sat at the door to the tent. As he saw them arriving he immediately recognized them and ran to meet and greet them. The patriarch, seeing an opportunity to serve God, invited them to wash their feet and to rest against a tree and gave them bread. Abraham thought they had come to eat bread.

Those angels did not tell Abraham that he was mistaken, or say that as angelical beings they would not eat of the bread of men. Now, not all bread is material, because the Most High has given us His word.  That bread referred symbolically to the revelation we have received, which becomes “energy” to be given to the angels. We can’t remove the Word of faith we have pronounced before God’s envoys, so that the divine work is finished.

The symbolism was real. One man gave milk, butter and bread to the angels. Then came a great blessing: Sarah in advanced age would give birth to a son. On receiving this revelation she laughed that she would bear a child in her old age, but nothing is impossible for God. The bread of faith will make the promise come true in you.

In Christ, with Love,
