    Are You Plugged In? - Pamela Drumgole

    Introduction

    We all know what it takes to have electricity to flow into our homes or businesses. You Must Be Plugged In To a Power Source.  Being connected to electrical power has become one of life's basic necessities. It is almost impossible to separate your life from it.

    To be without electrical power would cause us to plummet back into the Dark Ages. Our natural lives would become helpless and even hopeless in this present electronic, power-driven world. Electrical power was invented by William Gilbert, an English scientist, in the 1600's. Since that time it has evolved to where we now have power plants everywhere to supply electricity to every community in the modern world. However, electricity can be all around us but unless we are plugged into its source, we would live our lives powerless; lighting candles and cooking on wood-burning stoves!

    In the same way, we must know about and Plug In to spiritual power. Without spiritual power, we would be confined to living our lives in spiritual darkness, without the ability to effectively deal with the spiritual elements or forces that we have to contend with. The Bible tells us that we are in a war against principalities, powers, rulers of the dark regions of this world, and spiritual wickedness in high places. Without spiritual power, we would be left to fight spiritual battles with mere physical energy, which would be equivalent to spiritual suicide!

    So let’s make sure that we get Plugged In to the power that has already been paid for and made readily available to all of us. In this book we will discuss the source of that power, the types and kinds of spiritual power, and the effects and benefits of learning about and operating in the Power of God.

    I ask you one question: Are You Plugged In?

    I.

    Creative Power

    ¹In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. ²And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. ³And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.

    (Genesis 1:3)

    The first creative power that God released was in His utterance, Let there be light. After that release of God’s miraculous, creative power, the whole world that had been in utter darkness was flooded with light.

    Light suggests power. Activities, movements, functions, and operations are dependent upon some form of power (light). Power to operate in any arena is essential if there is to be a successful result. Thus, before God put anything else in place He had to plug the world into its place. He had to plug the world into the power-source of Light.

    Light, power, and authority are synonymous terms. From the beginning of time, God’s desire for mankind was for them to have Light, Power, and Authority. In the book of Beginnings, He created man after light but power was already in place. Then God gave mankind power over all that was created, giving him dominion of the whole earth; over the animals, fish, fowl, and every living creature.

    The Unseen Realm

    This God-given authority also extended to the unseen realm of the spirit world. It is that intangible region with which we contend with daily. In Ephesians 6:12, Paul said, Our battles are not with natural fleshy beings but with those in the spirit world. The only way we can combat them is by using our spiritual power source.

    Sadly, there are many people who think they are already plugged in because their names are on the church membership roll, or because they have been baptized. Although those things are definitely important and necessary, the most important is having our names written in the Lamb’s Book of Life. We must be connected to the Power Source Himself, the Lord Jesus Christ. I know that there are many people that believe in many different things because there are many voices in the world today. The voices are so loud and can be so convincing because of the high profile and highly visible people who are speaking. Jesus said, My sheep know my voice, and stranger’s voice they will not follow (John 10). In order to know the voice of God, we must have Light and Power which is illumination and revelation that only the Holy Spirit can provide.

    Light and power is the Word of God. Light is revelation and revelation is the power to know. The Greek definition for know or knowledge is to remove the cover, apocalupto, meaning to shine light or expose to light. Thus, power is when truth is revealed or exposed. Therefore, when we are Plugged In to God’s power, we are plugged into the revelations of the truths of God’s Word.

    ¹⁰⁵Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.

    (Psalm 119:105)

    Illumination

    Without the power of light, we cannot see where we are going and we subject ourselves to stumbling and falling throughout life. The revealed Word of Power gives understanding to us because we are limited in our own ability. When our paths are ordered and illuminated by the light or power of God’s Word, we will have dominion
