As I was sitting before the Lord, the Holy Spirit said, “The Rod of His Kings and Priests was going to swallow all of the Rods of sorcery and witchcraft!”
Once again those who are His are going to operate in Supernatural demonstration of the Holy Spirit and His Power so that those who see these things will put their faith and trust in Him.
He then took me to Exodus 7, where Aaron’s Rod swallowed up the rods of the magicians and the sorcerers until it was the only one that remained. Thus showing the Power of God’s Rod over all of the others. This is the same Rod that Moses used to Shepherd the flocks of Jethro. It was originally a symbol of the Authority of the Shepherd over the sheep, but it also was a symbol of the fallen nature of man.
When God told Moses to throw the rod down in His Presence at the Burning Bush, it became a snake the first time and Moses ran from it (Exodus 4:2-4), but the Lord told him to pick it up by the tail (so that it was now upside-down) and it became Gods Rod in his hands (Exodus 4:20).
The carnal nature of man is like the Rod of Moses which he used as a Shepherd, it’s used for a natural purpose to do natural things, but when it’s thrown down before the Lord, (becoming a living sacrifice for Him), the nature of the Rod becomes something else when it’s taken up again upside-down.
That Natural Rod becomes something other than the nature of a serpent (which is where all unsaved people take their character from John 8:44), it takes on God’s Power, Authority, and Presence and it swallows up all of the counterfeits that come around it!
That dead rod of Moses shepherding days became a Rod of God’s Presence and Power everywhere that Moses was told by God to use it, just like each one of us who have died to ourselves (who were dead in our trespasses and sins) have been made Supernaturally Alive by the Infusion of the Power of the Holy Spirit.
We no longer live to and for ourselves, but to and for Him Who died and Who was raised again for their sake (2 Corinthians 5:15). We don’t just use aggressive arguments and words of human wisdom to convince people, but allow the Holy Spirits Presence and Power to flow through us in Supernatural demonstration.
Every Son and Daughter of God who has died to themselves, and allowed the Holy Spirit unrestricted access to their lives, has the potential to become a Rod in God’s Hand! Filled with His Presence and Power, to not only share the good news verbally but to demonstrate the Power of that Kingdom in operation wherever the Holy Spirit tells them to.
“For the kingdom of God consists of and is based on NOT TALK BUT POWER (moral power and excellence of soul).” 1 Corinthians 4:20
While many are attempting to reason (intellectually arguing) others into relationship with Jesus Christ, those who have been filled with the Holy Spirit and His Power, and have surrendered themselves completely to His Leading, will operate in real Demonstration and Power of that Kingdom as evidence so that their faith won’t rest upon the Wisdom of Men anymore.
God’s Power has never diminished in any way, He’s just looking for some surrendered Dead Rods to infuse with His Power and Presence so that He can flow through them. They won’t take the credit for it but will give all the Glory to God.
Are you willing to become a Rod in the Lord’s Hand so that He can flow through your life? If you are then He’ll turn your natural life upside-down and infuse you with His Resurrection Power so that everyone who encounters you will Encounter Him!
