“Not that we are fit (qualified and sufficient in ability) of ourselves to form personal judgments or to claim or count anything as coming from us, but our power and ability and sufficiency are from God.” (2 Corinthians 3:5 AMPC)
A short clip from the New Year’s Message is available on the Pastor Chris Digital Library and on KingsChat. Take a few minutes to watch the video excerpt.
Light gives empowerment. “Light emits energy; [it] gives you the capacity to perform,” Pastor Chris said at the New Year’s Eve Service, discussing the third function of light
The man of God further expounds on this with two scriptures: 1. Colossians 1:29 — “Whereunto I also labour, striving according to his working, which worketh in me mightily.” The working of God mightily in us produces a superhuman capacity to perform.
2. 2 Corinthians 3:5 — “Not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think anything as of ourselves; but our sufficiency is of God.”
Pastor Chris has also taught that the Greek word ‘hikanos’ from where ‘sufficiency’ is derived means the condition or quality of being adequate or sufficient. Other synonyms include adequacy, competence, ability.
Light is for signs and seasons. Genesis 1:14 is talking about more than just the moon and stars; you can introduce a new season of blessing wherever you go.
Luke 10:5 is instructive in communicating our role as those who bring seasons of peace, love, victory and health: “And into whatsoever house ye enter, first say, Peace be to this house.”

“Whereunto I also labour, striving according to his working, which worketh in me mightily.” (Colossians 1:29 KJV)
“Not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think any thing as of ourselves; but our sufficiency is of God;” (2 Corinthians 3:5 KJV)
“Then God said, “Let bright lights appear in the sky to give light to the earth and to identify the day and the night; they shall bring about the seasons on the earth, and mark the days and years.” And so it was.” (Genesis 1:14 TLB)
“Behold, I and the children whom the Lord hath given me are for signs and for wonders in Israel from the Lord of hosts, which dwelleth in mount Zion.” (Isaiah 8:18 KJV)
“And again, I will put my trust in him. And again, Behold I and the children which God hath given me. Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil;” (Hebrews 2:13-14 KJV)
“Whatever house you enter, first say, Peace be to this household! [Freedom from all the distresses that result from sin be with this family].” (Luke 10:5 AMPC)
AFFIRMATION
I am divinely invigorated of God with special capacity to perform. I am productive, effective and efficient through the mighty power of God at work in me.
My ability is of divine origin, causing me to go beyond what is naturally possible. I have a superhuman capacity to produce results, because greater is He that is in me than He that is in the world.
I am sufficient, up to any task and competent for every assignment because of the light of God that shines in me and through me.
Everywhere I go, I take my peace, prosperity, health, victory and strength, bringing new seasons of blessing into the lives of those with whom I come in contact.
My life is for signs and wonders. This year, I work extraordinary miracles in my business [job, academics, family, church and cell group].
