In this powerful sermon, Evangelist Martha P. Davis emphasizes the transformative and commanding power of God available to believers who walk in faith and fellowship with Him. She begins by affirming the infallibility of God's Word and its essential role in sustaining both physical and spiritual life. Drawing from Isaiah 45:11, she explores the concept of "commanding power," the authority God grants His children to call upon His works and promises.
Using passages from Ephesians 6 and other scriptures, Evangelist Davis highlights the spiritual warfare believers face, emphasizing the need for the whole armor of God to withstand the enemy's attacks. She urges Christians to be strong in faith, rely on prayer, and maintain constant communion with God. She recounts biblical examples, such as Joshua commanding the sun and moon to stand still, as demonstrations of how God's people can exercise divine authority to overcome obstacles and fulfill His purposes.
Evangelist Davis also shares a personal testimony of God's miraculous intervention during a stormy voyage to Africa, illustrating how faith and obedience can invoke God's power over natural elements. She calls on believers to know God deeply, rely on His Word, and exercise their God-given authority to advance His kingdom and rescue souls from darkness.
The sermon concludes with a challenge to believers: prove the power of God by standing firm in faith, performing exploits for His glory, and prioritizing eternal riches over worldly gain. With a passionate call to action, Evangelist Davis reminds listeners of their identity in Christ and their divine mandate to command the works of God in alignment with His will.
