Greetings
My Friends
When
I was at Bible study last Sunday, the person who was the leader, told
the group that he felt that a couple of people in the group, were
about to receive a revelation from the Holy Spirit. He mentioned this
a couple of times. We concluded this study, and attended the Sunday
service at the same location.
The
pastor started a series on the Holy Spirit. As he was talking, a
thought came to me that I would call a revelation. This revelation as
I will call it, made the idea of prayer so powerful that I feel I
have to share it. It is one of those things that you totally
understand in your own mind, but have some difficulty explaining it
to someone else, because words seem inadequate.
As
I write this, I ask the Holy Spirit to open hearts so that others see
it the way it was showed to me. I realize that many people may
already know what I am about say, but I feel compelled to say it
anyway.
God
created the universe by His words. He spoke everything into
existence. He said "light be" and there was light. Whenever
He spoke to anything, it had no choice, it had to obey. The gospel of
John tells us that in the first few verses.
When
God sent His only son to earth on a rescue mission, He told Jesus
what the mission was, and gave Him the same power through the Holy
Spirit, that He had during creation. God gave Jesus a helper who
happened to be the Holy Spirit, because Jesus was temporarily human
when He was on the earth. Jesus had no power of His own to do the
works He was supposed to do. He acted for God through the Holy
Spirit. Because of the Holy Spirit, every word that Jesus spoke had
to be obeyed.
When
Jesus spoke to His apostles after His resurrection, He told them that
He would send them a helper. The same helper that made creation
happen, helped Jesus, and made Him rise again from the dead. He told
the apostles to preach the word to all men, cast out demons, heal the
sick, and make disciples. Jesus spoke and so it was.
When
Jesus spoke, He did it for all generations to come. We now take our
turn. We are in the same position as Jesus was. The same helper is
ours. The same command He gave to the apostles applied to all
believers. By His word, which must be obeyed, we are charged with
doing His work until He comes back. Our words spoken in His name,
must be obeyed. When you realize that, you also realize He gave you
the faith that is required to make it happen.
So
the bottom line is this. Pray in Jesus name, speak the words that the
Bible backs up, and what you speak to, must obey. Just as you had a
father, and he had a father, and so on down the line, the bloodline
is there. When we became children of God, we stepped into His
bloodline. To put it in a carnal away, it is like carrying on the
family business.
Remember
Jesus Loves You
Prayer
of Salvation
Father
I repent of all my sins. I know that Jesus suffered and died to
forgive those sins. I know that by His stripes I was healed. I know
He rose again to make salvation possible. I ask you Jesus to come
into my heart, and be my personal Savior. Help me to live according
to your plan. Thank you Lord.
