Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.
We should unequivocally have total and complete trust and faith in GOD. What GOD does for Jesus, has been made available for us to do as well, by Jesus. The very same
signs and wonders should have manifestation in our lives giving glory to and testimony of GOD. We should be cognizant at all times of the precious Holy Spirit of GOD residing within us to manifest the works of GOD through the gifts and faith HE has given us.
I am somewhat disappointed when a person becomes ill in the church and we are asked to pray for GOD's wisdom in choosing the right doctor ~ or if they are having surgery, for GOD to direct the hands of the doctors and nurses involved. While this is a good thing to do ~ a far better thing to do would be to pray or speak GOD's healing and Grace over HIS son or daughter first. It's almost as if we are taking a step backward to believe in GOD for the effectiveness of a doctor's ability vs. trusting GOD for the patient's immediate healing. If we can trust GOD to guide a doctor's hand for successful surgery, why can't we trust the same GOD to heal the patient HIMSELF? Are we reluctant or fearful in stepping out on faith, and if so, at what point do we enlarge our faith?
Jesus did not pray for any physician tending anyone who was ill. HE healed all who HE came in contact with. HE set the example for us and I am so looking forward to more testimonies of those who visit hospitals and empty the beds.We should never limit GOD because we are limiting our own faith when we do that. Believe GOD to do the same as HE did with Jesus and the Holy Spirit will be there to guide and prompt us. I do believe that we are more than able to pray for doctors taking care of patients. I just think the application of faith is not being prioritized to bring greater glory to GOD.
May we see with great spiritual eyes on Christ, the great works HE did that glorified HIS Father. May we may bring glory to GOD and point to HIS extreme goodness and impact the Kingdom of GOD with multitudes of new inhabitants! Let's start utilizing our faith by believing GOD with the faith we have and believing HIM for more. Pray and fast or just step out of the boat to increase our faith at every opportunity and see what GOD will do!
