Today
as I was returning home from this powerful church service where I learned and
understood how to walk in the miraculous, I met this young man whom I saw
during the church service praying for a blind man he met. I was instantly happy
and thought to myself “I admire his courage”. Do you know why I thought so?
Because I had not reached his daring dimension and another thing caught my eye,
his friends were waiting for him somewhere along the way and one of them was speaking
in tongues while he was ministering to the blind man. Now I had conflicting
thoughts within me “why didn’t you join him” another thought was “wow, even if
nothing happens there he has understood how to be bold and act on God’s word”
another thought was “if this is his first time I bet you by the fifth, this guy
must have done a miracle for God’s glory”. I sometimes hate to find myself in
situations like this because it leaves me in a place of fear and most likely
unbelief (pardon my language). My greatest fear is “what if the person doesn’t
get well? I will probably be ridiculed”. Sounds familiar huh? That is the
handiwork of the enemy so that you will quit and hide somewhere and not show
forth the praises of our God.
Dare
to do it because of who you are as a son of God
You are a son of the Living God and His word says you can do it. Christ has been made unto us wisdom and understanding (1
Corinthians 1:30). All that Christ is, is yours, all He did was for you. Do you
believe you can be limited? Never! When Apostle Paul said, “I can do all things
through Christ which strengthens me” (Phil 4:13). He had understood what he had
within him and he knew that he was no longer a man but an extraordinary being. His words are
so deep and that is what it takes to walk in the miraculous. Know and
understand who you are. This is the most important thing in being a Christian.
You are a son of God! Look at the life of Jesus! He never strained to perform
any miracle. He never made any statement like “this is not the atmosphere” no,
he was ready always to perform a miracle. This is because He understood that
being a son didn’t require religion or anything you can do. It requires just
your understanding of your union with God; it is not about you or anyone else. You are a partaker of God’s nature and a co-heir
with Christ. God said “ye are gods” and look at it keenly; a God gives birth to
its kind which is a god as well as a man gives birth to a man. So, being born
again makes you a god which is the new creation man (2 Corinthians 5:17), you
are no longer born of the will of man but of the Spirit. The Father has
begotten you Himself (John 1: 12-13), He is for you, He is with you and He
lives in you. Beloved, God’s ability is all yours, He is your source at every
count, you are complete in Him and He is working everything out for your good.
He loves you more than you love yourself and He is more ambitious about your
success than you are. You are a branch of the Vine (Jesus) and you know the
branch gets it livelihood only from the vine. You and Jesus are indissolubly united;
You are one.
God
requires only one thing from us; ONLY
BELIVE! Believe that He is the same yesterday,
today and forever, He is the unchangeable changer; the creator of everything we
see. We should take our eyes off what we see which is; His creation and see
Him the Creator because it’s far more rewarding. God does not speak to please,
he doesn’t joke about anything He says and no word that comes out of His mouth
lacks power or fulfillment. Jesus spoke words
with authority and simplicity. He was never afraid of what will happen because
he knew what He said will come to pass. Jesus said to us “And these signs shall follow them that believe; IN MY NAME
they shall cast out devils…” (Mark 16: 17-18). If God be for us who can be
against us? (Romans 8:31). As sons of God, we can do anything we ask in the
name that is above every other name;
THE NAME OF JESUS!
