Message
Jeremiah 32:19 tells us that the Almighty God is mighty in works. God loves doing mighty works. Unfortunately, however, in today 's Bible reading, Jesus could not do mighty works in His hometown because of the people 's unbelief. Unbelief or doubt will hinder a fellow from experiencing God 's mighty works in his or her life. When they are absent, however, the fellow 's life will reflect the mighty works of the Almighty God.
God delights in doing mighty works, and He seeks sons and daughters who will partner with Him to do them. He is on the lookout for men and women who will do greater works than the Lord Jesus Christ did while He was on earth. There is, however, the need to believe in the Lord Jesus Christ if you want to be eligible to do greater works (ohn 14:12).
Beloved, you don 't need to attend a seminary or attain a particular position to do mighty works; all that is required is your faith. When it was almost time for Jesus to ascend into heaven, He commissioned His disciples to preach the gospel all over the world and told them about the mighty signs that would follow them. He told them that they had the power to cast out devils, speak with new tongues, take up serpents, and lay hands on the sick(Mark 16:15-18). The only thing that qualified them to do all these was for them to believe in Him.
Child of God, God wants to do mighty works through you. He wants to use you as His battle axe to destroy the works of darkness (eremiah 51:20), but you must believe in Him for this to happen. It is true that He is sovereign and can da whatever He pleases, but He wants you to have faith in Him so all things can be possible for you (Mark 9:23). Have you allowed unbelief to cheat you out of the mighty works that Cod wants to do in you and through you? If you have ask for His mercy today. Fill your heart with His word because hearing God 's word continually will grow your faith. Romans 10:17 says faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. You must also flee from anything that will dampen your faith.
Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever [Hebrews 13:8), and the marvellous things He has done fol Others and through others, He can do for you and through you. Only believe! Get up and work.
