Dear Young Champion,
This special edition, POWER That Breaks Protocols, was born out of a deep burden for the state of the Church in our generation. We carry power, yet we rarely exercise it. We have been bequeathed authority by Jesus Christ Himself, yet many of us live as though we are helpless, negotiating with circumstances instead of commanding them. Too often, we lose this authority through compromise, distraction, and spiritual carelessness.
The consequence is painful: the world mocks the Church. Many no longer believe in the reality of God's power, not because God has changed, but because His people have stopped taking their place. We have been called to take charge spiritually, yet we have settled for religious activity without spiritual authority.
Like Father Abraham, we are meant to be so connected to God that He cannot hide His plans from us. Abraham stood in the place of intercession and pleaded for Sodom and Gomorrah—and God listened. This is not history; it is a pattern. We are called to be that close, that trusted, that spiritually positioned. We are not mere observers on earth; we are God's priests and kings, appointed to represent heaven's interests on earth.
This is why I have put this devotional together: to awaken spiritual authority in believers, to rekindle fire on personal altars, and to stir that dimension of power that moves the hand of God and shifts earthly protocols. Jesus Himself said, “You shall receive power after that the Holy Ghost has come upon you…” (Acts 1:8). That promise was not for a few special people; it is for every believer who will take God seriously.
It is time to recalibrate. It is time to return to the altar, to reclaim intimacy, and to occupy our rightful place. The world does not need more religious noise; it needs to feel the presence of God through the tangible manifestation of His grace and power in our lives.
I wrote this devotional because too many believers have drifted too far from their place of authority. These 30 days mark a turning point—where you stop admiring power and begin to walk in pure, unadulterated, God-given power that breaks protocols.
