СКАЧАТЬ to demonstrate your faith and receive from God now. Break the laws of time and receive your blessings right now. For faith is no respecter of time, and time does not determine faith. If you believe now you can receive by faith your salvation, Holy Spirit, deliverance, healing, job, marriage, breakthrough etc. In the name of Jesus receive…!

      “Now suppose one of you fathers is asked by his son for a fish; he will not give him a snake instead of a fish, will he? Or if he asks for an egg, will give him a scorpion? If you then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him”( Luke 11:11-13)

      If you have exercised faith to receive the gift of eternal life, then you have experienced the greatest miracle. And, if you have believed and received the gift of the Holy Spirit by yielding your tongue to speak in unknown tongues, then you have experienced the second greatest miracle.

      As Apostle Paul wrote, “…the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you” (Romans 8:11). He convicted you of your sin and your need for Christ (John 16:8-11). The Bible explains that without the Holy Spirit’s help, people think Christianity is foolish (1 Corinthians 1:18).

      Those around you may think it’s crazy you’ve made such a commitment to Christ. But, you don’t see it that way at all because the Holy Spirit has revealed the wonder of a life in Christ to you. “Think how much the Father loves us. He loves us so much that he lets us be called his children, as we truly are. But since the people of this world did not know who Christ is, they don’t know who we are.” (1 John 3:1)

      So, never let the devil tell you that you do not have faith, for if you have been born again and received your spirit language, then you have exercised your faith for the two greatest miracles in Christianity. Believing God to meet your need for personal divine healing or a miracle is secondary to this two greatest miracles.

      Holy Spirit was sent by Christ to enable you to live the Christian life. For the Christian life is possible only with the power of the Holy Spirit. “Nevertheless, I tell you the truth: it is to your advantage that I go away, for if I do not go away, the Helper will not come to you. But if I go, I will send him to you.” (John 16:7)

      And, you may be thinking, I need the Holy Spirit in my life. But, if you are a Christian, He is already there. The Holy Spirit resides in you but, the problem is that you may not be yielding your life to His direction. He may be a resident – without being president. “You, however, are controlled not by the flesh, but by the Spirit, if the Spirit of God lives in you. And if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to Christ.” (Romans 8:9).

      Perhaps life is just hard that it seems like you are never going to get this “Christian thing” right. Let me share this with you my dear, God is real. He is not a wooden cross. He is not a painted idol. He is Spirit. He is far above every ruler, authority, power, dominion, and every name that can be named, not only in the present age but, also in the one to come. His unconditional love for you and all mankind is revealed through His Son Jesus Christ. And, God placed all things under his feet and appointed him to be head over everything for the church. He communicates via the pages of the Bible, through prayers, through circumstances, visions, dreams, prophets and through contact with believers.

      If you sincerely seek God, you will find Him and all His Glory. You do not have to start out being an expert, just patiently get to know Him one day at a time. Be confident in knowing that nothing escapes God’s attention. You are never out of His sight or His care. Before the thought occurred in your mind, God knew it. He has known all things before the foundation of the earth. There is nothing new. So, do not turn or continue turning your back on God, see beyond the deception. “Do not be wise in your own eyes; Fear the LORD and turn away from evil. This will bring health to your body and nourishment to your bones.” (Proverbs 3:7-8)

      So, the Gospel is an announcement not an argument. You share it, not shove it. The beauty of the Gospel is while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Nothing will ever separate us from His love. If love does not require some sort of sacrifice on your part, you probably are not loving the person at all. However, a love based on conduct would keep you wondering, “Have I done enough?” Instead, God cares for you simply because you are You. Never compare your love story with those in the movies, because they are written by scriptwriters, yours is written by God. The author and the finisher of our faith. Because of the cross you do not have to try to justify what you have done in the past.

      To Christ all your sins have been thrown into a sea of forget. The moment you asked for forgiveness, you are forgiven. Nothing feels better than knowing that your sins are forgiven. And, that God loves you. He will never leave you nor forsake you, and he will always take care of you. He is faithful when you are not. He is constant when you are not. He is everything when you are nothing. Yet, He says that you are His. “For God loved the world so much that he gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life.” (John 3:16)

      Sometimes sharing and living in accordance with the gospel always comes with the risk of looking or sounding crazy. I guess that is just a risk you have to take anyway. Keep on testifying about what you witnessed happening in your walk with God. Let the people keep on talking, judging and laughing as you walk in purpose, preparing the way of the LORD, and making straight in the desert a highway for God. For someday you will just have to sit back and let God shut their mouths.

      God always leaves a witness to testify about his goodness, so many people that sit in judgement as you toil towards your goals casting their insignificant judgement about your journey typically will become the ones that say, “I remember him or her when…” Perhaps there is some stuff you are going through and cannot talk about now but, when God brings you out of it, talk about it openly and will help so many people while others be silenced. Just as Jesus said to this man “Go to your house, to your friends, and tell them what great things the Lord has done for you, and how he had mercy on you. So the man departed, and related publicly everywhere in the Ten Towns all that Jesus had done for him; and all were astonished.” (Mark 5:19-20)

      However, you cannot force someone to comprehend a message they are not ready to receive. But still, do not underestimate the power of planting a seed. Simple words can mean the world to someone when they are spoken with love. Hence, everyone you meet is a work in progress. Unless you know all the work God is doing in their life, be careful that you are not incorrectly judging their progress. As they say if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing it is stupid.

      There are many gospels being preached today but, there are few that the Holy Spirit can bear witness with. If the enemy cannot stop you from believing in God, he will try to make you disappointed with God. Do not believe the lie, you did not miss or denied your destiny.

      You might be delayed but, you are not denied what God has for you. As long as you have got breath, you have got a purpose. It may not have happened in the past but, God is still on the throne. It will happen in your future. Keep running after what belongs to you. You are never too broken for God. He heals. He restores. And He gets all the glory. He will see you through all the dirtiness, brokenness, and lies. And He will wipe off the dust and calls you His child. You are His. “For [He] you created [your] my inmost being; [He] you knit [you] me together in [your] my mother’s womb.” (Psalm 139:13)

—–“Do not be carried away by all kinds of strange teachings. It is good for our hearts to be strengthened by grace, not by eating ceremonial foods, which is of no benefit to those who do so.” (Hebrews 13: 9)—–

      You may fool everyone else but, you will not fool God. You either have the Word and it abides in you, or you do not. The Bible is not open to private interpretation. It does not matter what you may think it means. It means what it means. God has said what He has said. You are in СКАЧАТЬ
