1. THE GREATEST MIRACLE OF YOUR LIFE Dear friend of revival, The greatest miracle of your life is already happening! It started when you received Jesus as your personal Saviour and it will continue until the heavenly resurrection. Jesus has come to dwell in your spirit in a supernatural way. He will teach, train, equip and lead you towards the ever increasing glory. Your true personality is the spiritual, inner being. You are living in a natural body, which you must rule and nourish with wisdom and care. Through the blood of Jesus the Holy Spirit has created a heavenly identity in you, who is delivered from sin and who has the right to become the co-heir of God together with Jesus. Receive by faith this supernatural truth, which is inconceivable for your natural understanding. Glory to God for His Mercy and Grace! Lift up your eyes towards heavenly visions, because they truly are the most real and everlasting realm of your life. The visible things are perishing but the heavenly things will stay forever. Heb 12:1-2: Therefore let us also, seeing we are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, looking unto Jesus the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising shame, and hath sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. There are more heavenly angels and power of the Holy Spirit around us than we would believe. The hosts of God are witnessing and exercising the reign of Jesus. The darkness will never get a permanent victory in the life of God's children. The devil may distract, oppress, lie, destroy and steal the blessings from them because of unbelief, weakness, failures, ignorance, omissions or disobedience. But in spite of that every believer is kept safe inside the salvation of Jesus forever and commanded into the fellowship with God as a holy and unblemished new creation. The blood of Jesus is continuously cleansing you -now and forever - from all sin and inequity. Lift up your eyes unto Jesus! He already lives in you and wants to reveal Himself evermore. Do not look at the darkness or listen lies of the devil. Instead look at Jesus and see Him as He is: the Ruler over the darkness on the throne of the Father. Look, how Jesus is emanating awesome glory which is already now flowing upon you from Him. You belong to Jesus and He belongs to you. Let yourself dissolve into Him! 2 Cor 3:18: But we all, with unveiled face beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are transformed into the same image from glory to glory, even as from the Lord the Spirit. Jesus knows already the secrets of your life! Jesus has atoned all your sins already. The blood of Jesus covers all your sins NOW AND FOREVER. Father God has commander you to be His holy and unblemished son/daughter through the blood of Jesus. The perfect salvation belongs to you as long as you trust on Jesus and stay in fellowship with Him. By the mercy of God the shame of sin is removed from you and you are transformed to worship Him in the Glory. This song of the saved ones will reach the most glorious tune in Heaven. Rev. Jesse Duplantis got the grace to visit the Heaven. This was one incident during his encounter with Jesus: Jesus walked towards him with stretched arms and inviting to Himself. Enormous love emanated from Jesus but Jesse began to feel himself very sinful and was going to pardon his sins. Before he could utter anything Jesus responded to his thoughts: "I know you have sinned, but I have redeemed you. I have already forgiven all your sins." Look at Jesus and let His Glory enlighten your soul. Look at His love, mercy, holiness and power. Praise and worship Him! Live up the increase, change and renewal towards His likeness. In the salvation plan of God Jesus has done everything that would be impossible for a man. Jesus has left us an easy task to surrender, believe and receive His perfect salvation as a royal gift. Therefore, do not worry how everything might happen. Do not try to reason or make up yourself into the glory. Yield unto the mighty power of Jesus, open your heart to Him. Trust and believe that Jesus is working supernaturally in you, all the time exceeding your understanding. The shortcomings of our life, our failures or experiences of the other don't prove anything about the purpose or content of the salvation of Jesus. Our painful needs and magnitude of our problems prove only that we all need Him desperately! ONLY THE WORD OF GOD AND THE REVELATION OF THE HOLY SPIRIT WILL BRING THE CORRECT WITNESS ABOUT JESUS AND HIS PLANS. Therefore let us anchor our faith into the truths that the Word and the Spirit reveal us. The greatest miracle of your life is happening all the time. You are rising up in the power of the new creation into the new life and new ministries. The heavenly high tide is touching you and it will detach your feet from the clay of Egypt and lead you into the Promised Land! 2. THE FAITH OF ABRAHAM Gal 3:7: Know therefore that they that are of faith, the same are sons of Abraham. As a believer in Jesus you are a son/daughter of Abraham, because you lay the foundation of your life on the salvation of Jesus. You believe that through Him you are connected to God and receiving a share of His glory already now. Your inner man is a receiver of faith of God trough Jesus, who is living in you. Jesus is the author and perfecter of your faith. He dwells in you and brings the reign of God into your life. Through the presence of Jesus the faith of God is working actively in you. Your faith has not yet reached it's full measure, but this seed of God lives and increases in you. You have a potential to achieve the fullness of faith and life in Jesus. Everything has been prepared for you. Stand up, reach out and receive! 1 John 3:9: Whosoever is begotten of God doeth no sin, because his seed abideth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is begotten of God. We like to give you a new revelation about the faith of Abraham. You have certainly heard the biblical truth (Rom 4:3): "Abraham believed God, and it was reckoned unto him for righteousness". Of course this is the true definition of faith of Abraham and you must have this kind of faith. You believe Jesus and trust that His redemptive actions will save you and make you righteous. But the faith of Abraham is more than this. He believed against impossible circumstances that the promise of God shall become fulfilled ALREADY IN HIS NATURAL LIFE. Abraham believed that GOD IS ABLE TO PERFORM A SUPERNATURAL CREATIVE MIRACLE IN HIS OWN AND HIS WIFE'S BODY AND LIFE. This had to happen before God's promise could be fulfilled. The faith of Abraham means trusting in God ACCORDING TO HIS PROMISES for your own benefit IN THIS LIFE ALREADY, even against any natural circumstance. Rom 4:16-25: For this cause it is of faith, that it may be according to grace; to the end that the promise may be sure to all the seed; not to that only which is of the law, but to that also which is of the faith of Abraham, who is the father of us all (as it is written, A father of many nations have I made thee) before him whom he believed, even God, who giveth life to the dead, and calleth the things that are not, as though they were. Who in hope believed against hope, to the end that he might become a father of many nations, according to that which had been spoken, So shall thy seed be. And without being weakened in faith he considered his own body now as good as dead (he being about a hundred years old), and the deadness of Sarah’s womb; yet, looking unto the promise of God, he wavered not through unbelief, but waxed strong through faith, giving glory to God, and being fully assured that what he had promised, he was able also to perform. Wherefore also it was reckoned unto him for righteousness. Now it was not written for his sake alone, that it was reckoned unto him; but for our sake also, unto whom it shall be reckoned, who believe on him that raised Jesus our Lord from the dead, who was delivered up for our trespasses, and was raised for our justification. Abraham believed God who makes alive those who are dead and calls forth things that do not exist. He believed that God in His love and mercy is able to touch with His resurrection power anything that is dead or destroyed and make it perfectly healthy and living. The touch of God's resurrection power produces cleansing from the sin, new birth as a new creation, immersion in the Holy Spirit, healing of the sicknesses, removing of the curses, destroying of all bondages of evil and abundant blessing of the life. This will happen on the earth, but the power of the resurrection will continue working until the resurrection of all children of God in Heaven. In the resurrection the children of God will be clothed with the celestial body of Jesus kind. This is beyond our imagination, but it will happen according to the Word of God. God has power to call forth anything that is in unity with His character and Word. He loves to lavish precious gifts to His children. Nothing is impossible for Him, and everything is possible for him, who is with God and trusts in Him. We get a little more understanding about the faith of Abraham, when we read it according to Young's literal translation: Rom 4:19-21: …and not having been weak in the faith, HE DID NOT CONSIDER HIS OWN BODY, ALREADY BECOME DEAD, (being about a hundred years old,) and the deadness of Sarah's womb, and at the promise of God did not stagger in unbelief, BUT WAS STRENGTHENED IN FAITH, HAVING GIVEN GLORY TO GOD, and HAVING BEEN FULLY PERSUADED THAT WHAT HE HATH PROMISED HE IS ABLE ALSO TO DO: Abraham did not consider his natural condition or weakness, but he believed God and considered His promise to come true because of His faithfulness. HE BELIEVED THAT HIS OR HIS WIFE'S WEAKNESS WOULD NOT HINDER GOD TO FULFILL HIS PROMISE. Abram believed that the power of God will renew his manhood and Sarah's womanhood in such a way that they will become able to conceive, give birth and raise the descendant in such a way that a new generation will start through him. Abraham believed in a great creative miracle in his wife's and his own life. You can believe also, like Abraham did, that Jesus is able to perform in you all healing, restoring, cleansing, renewing and creative work which is needed for you to become His witness in the power of the Holy Spirit! Your sicknesses, weaknesses or problems must be removed and the circumstances must yield because God is able to fulfil all of His promises in you, even unto the resurrection in the Heaven! Look at Jesus and His promises. He is faithful and Almighty to do miracles in your life. Praise and honour to God! 3. YOUR MINDSET MUST BE CHANGED! Luke 24:45-47: Then opened he their mind, that they might understand the scriptures; and he said unto them, Thus it is written, that the Christ should suffer, and rise again from the dead the third day; and that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name unto all the nations, beginning from Jerusalem. The word 'repentance' in the verse 47 is in the original Greek language 'metanoia', which means simply 'change of mind'. 'Metanoia' does not specify the content of the 'change of mind'. The word 'remission' comes from the Greek word 'afesin', which means 'to lay aside' or 'to release from the legal charge'. The word 'forgiveness' has become later into our vocabulary and we should understand that it means 'to lay aside the sins' or 'to remove the sins'. We must study the words of Jesus in full context of His redemptive work. Therefore we can summarize the message above like this: "You must preach the change of mind and full remission (=removal, forgiveness) of all sins in Jesus's Name for all nations…" Please note that Jesus does not say that 'pardoning' must be preached! Jesus took the burden of all sins upon Him on the cross at Galvary. He paid the full price of the sins and prepared the position of a son/daughter of God for anyone who believes in Him. This is a free gift of God that anyone can receive by faith. The work is done. Instead of pardoning Jesus calls us TO BELIEVE in Him and His salvation and trust that He has made us free indeed. The revolutionary truth of total forgiveness and deliverance must lead us to a new mindset and lifestyle altogether. A human being as a slave of sin is in the captivity of the thoughts of guilt, failure, defeat, condemnation and fear - concerning himself and the other. Now the new creation is thinking God's thoughts and looking with God's eyes. The new creation is seeing, experiencing and receiving the increase of FREEDOM, LIFE, BLESSINGS, FUTURE AND HOPE. He shall not be in the bondage of fear and slavery but he has the spirit of adoption, which shouts full of joy and faith: "Abba, my lovely Father!" If a believer thinks that God forgives his sins only after he would pardon his sins in an acceptable manner, his faith is based on a wrong assumption. Bible never teaches us to pardon our sins but to confess and renounce them. Moreover, we should not stay in confessing our sins but FIRST OF ALL CONFESS AND RECEIVE JESUS AS THE REDEEMER FROM ALL OF OUR SIN AND INEQUITY. Why is this so important? It is because the salvation is totally based on God's free will and decision TO GIVE US AN PERFECT GIFT OF SALVATION in His immeasurable mercy. It is the same for all and freely available for everyone. We should not have a slightest idea that we should need to persuade God to forgive us something. He has done it already completely in Jesus Christ. Receive and rejoice, praise God! When we bring our sins into light then the FORGIVENESS of God can remove them from us as far as the east is from the west and forever. When we want to come out from the darkness God allows us to enter into His glory trough the blood of Jesus. Pardoning life style is a manifestation of unbelief concerning the deliverance from sin and judgement! That kind of mindset must be changed, because guilt is the strong weapon of darkness against faith, healing, deliverance, peace and blessings. 1 John 1:9: If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. The Good News of Jesus carries a simple and strong message. You are already forgiven through Him. The forgiveness is the done deal and it is available for everyone. When you confess and renounce your sins and receive Jesus as your Saviour and Lord this gift of salvation will be yours forever. You will have the right and authority to reject sinful life, because you are fully forgiven. The enemy has no weapons against you anymore. When you live in freedom then you will be able to call other people into freedom in Jesus. Rom 3:23-26: …for all have sinned, and fall short of the glory of God; being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus: whom God set forth to be a propitiation, through faith, in his blood, to show his righteousness because of the passing over of the sins done aforetime, in the forbearance of God; for the showing, I say, of his righteousness at this present season: that he might himself be just, and the justifier of him that hath faith in Jesus. 4. THE SEAL OF SALVATION Luke 24:49: And behold, I send forth the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city, until ye be clothed with power from on high. Before the salvation at Galvary and His resurrection Jesus God could not fill disciples with the Holy Spirit, because the human being - fallen in sin - was not an acceptable dwelling place for Him. Even the law of sin and death separated the man and God from each other. Jesus destroyed this barrier and opened the way for God to dwell in a man. This opened also the door for a man to enter in the eternal presence of God in Heaven. Your new creation is the temple of the Holy Spirit and the dwelling place of Jesus on the earth. All your spiritual future and potential is concentrated in your new creation - independent of your natural circumstances. The gift of the Holy Spirit belongs to you in a measure that is limited only by the measure of your faith. Do not let your potential lay dormant! You are acceptable to God and the unsearchable riches of Jesus Christ are available for you in the power of the Holy Spirit. You are called to be filled with and immersed in the Holy Spirit continuously and increasingly. Great works of Jesus are waiting for you. Lift up your eyes for higher levels of God's miracles. Invite the Holy Spirit to fill you. When He comes, stay under the cloud! The presence of the Holy Spirit is the presence of Jesus. Jesus is returning soon in His glorious splendour and calling His bride into resurrection. But He already dwells in you to make you His anointed witness in this age in order to gather a great harvest from the earth! Let Jesus be manifested in you and through you for all nations of the earth. Let the Anointed One in you show up every day and in every situation of your life. Become thirsty and hungry! Seek Him and you will find! The enormous power of the Holy Spirit is for you. The fire of the Holy Spirit will purify you and make you holy and strong in your ministry. Just yield unto Him and open your heart for His presence. This day is valuable and critical. Time is short for the bride to prepare herself. Make today a new commitment before the Lord. He will show you greater things that you have even seen before. Glory to God! 5. LET JESUS RISE IN YOU Look at Jesus as the Anointed One! Look and study how He loved His people and proclaimed the Good News, full of mercy and truth. Study the greatness of the power of God in Jesus, while He was the Anointed One among the people of Israel. You are the follower of Jesus and you are commanded to do the same works as He did and even greater works. Make room in your spirit and faith! Trust that Jesus is able to do this, as Abraham believed in God's promise in his situation. Renounce from the poverty mentality. Jesus has prepared a supernatural favour through the anointing of the Holy Spirit. You know, there is no reason why you should not succeed with Jesus. The treasures of heaven are available for you, because Jesus lives in you. Just accept another kind of mindset! Of course you need to put away your old man with his lusts and evil thoughts. You can do this, because the price is paid and the way is open. Stand up rejoicing and let Jesus rise up in you! John 14:12: 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 the Father. Your new creation is the house of God on the earth. Jesus needs you for His Kingdom's purposes. Jesus is in you in the form of the Holy Spirit. A human person in the flesh has the authority to operate in this world. Therefore He needs you in order to manifest Himself here on the earth. You are acceptable to God. Your life and devotion to God is the most valuable what you can give to Him. Your new creation is a hero of faith, which rises in you to minister people in the increasing glory of Jesus Christ. Jesus will make your faith perfect and therefore your faith is fully acceptable to God. Do not let the enemy question your faith but trust and receive boldly God's blessings and gifts. The glory of God is descending upon the Bride of Jesus. This outpouring of the Holy Spirit will equip the Bride of Christ for the harvest. After that there will come the rapture of the saints. This will save His people from the time of Antichrist on the earth, which will follow the rapture. Now is the critical time to join with Jesus for this preparation and purification. You are called to be with Him. The power of the Holy Spirit will do a great work in you. Glory to God! Col 1:25-29: whereof I was made a minister, according to the dispensation of God which was given me to you-ward, to fulfil the word of God, even the mystery which hath been hid for ages and generations: but now hath it been manifested to his saints, to whom God was pleased TO MAKE KNOWN WHAT IS THE RICHES OF THE GLORY OF THIS MYSTERY AMONG THE GENTILES, WHICH IS CHRIST IN YOU, THE HOPE OF GLORY: whom we proclaim, admonishing every man and teaching every man in all wisdom, THAT WE MAY PRESENT EVERY MAN PERFECT IN CHRIST; whereunto I labor also, striving according to his working, which worketh in me mightily. With
love in Jesus Christ  |
