Greetings
My Friends
This
message is almost like a sequel to the one on authority. Besides
authority however, it involves faith.
First
of all it takes faith in order to hear that little voice in your
heart. When you hear the voice, you have to figure out if it is
really God talking to you. Does the message line up with the word? If
it does, ask the Holy Spirit about it. If it is the voice of God, ask
the Holy Spirit for guidance and help.
Believe
me, it is not as tough as it sounds. It gets to be something you do
without thinking about. So now that you have that part of faith
straightened out, we tackle the biggest part. Faith in action.
Some
of us pray for someone to be healed. Then we anxiously wait to see if
anything happens. We may even think that the sick person is someone
who doesn't believe anything, so they probably won't be healed
anyway. We may doubt for various reasons, and not even realize we are
really doubting.
If
you have authority in the workplace, you make a decision, and expect
the proper results. Actually, that is the time you should be
concerned, because you are dealing with imperfect people, including
you.
Jesus
makes it easy. When you proclaim even the most seemingly impossible
thing in Jesus name, your job is done. Consider it as the best
possible outcome. You are finished with that one. Move on to the
next.
When
you get authority in the world, you are responsible 24 hours a day.
You are subject to all of the whims and twists and turns. It is like
being in a never ending war.
When
Jesus gives you authority, you do what you are led to do, and Jesus
says, good job. Let's fix something else. At that point you have
total peace, because He does everything else. A farmer would love to
plant seeds, and do nothing else but benefit from the great harvest.
We
have authority from Jesus that may seem impossible, but remember,
Jesus is love, and He is truth. We have the easy part. Jesus says, I
can't grow a crop, if you don't plant the seeds. We have to realize
that Jesus doesn't just talk, He means what He says. If He says we
are to plant the seeds, then plant the seeds. If we think of
ourselves as seed planters, it is so much easier to have faith.
Remember
Jesus Loves You
Prayer
of Salvation
Lord
Jesus, I thank you for what you did on the cross for me. Your blood
washed away my sins, by your stripes I was healed, your death and
resurrection brought me salvation. Please forgive my sins, and come
into my heart as my personal Savior.
