“Jesus told her, “I am the resurrection and the life. Anyone who believes in me will live, even after dying. Everyone who lives in me and believes in me will never ever die. Do you believe this, Martha?”
- John 11:25-26

“When Mary arrived and saw Jesus, she fell at his feet and said, “Lord, if only you had been here, my brother would not have died.” John 11:32 [emphasis added]. Mary and Martha’s responses show us that the Jesus they know is the Jesus that can heal the sick. And sometimes, God allows us to go through situations that would make us perplexed, just to show us that He is still the same Jesus, that can not only heal the sick but can raise the dead.

Jesus was teaching us through this story, that He is not only able to prevent death by healing, He is able to reverse death by resurrection. Some of us are going through a challenge and all you have been saying to God is, Lord why me? God wants to use you to show the world how He can do the impossible. Do I get an Amen?

Jesus was explaining to Martha that her brother was going to come back to life. And Martha said, I know he is going to come back to life when everybody else rises up from the dead. Jesus said, you are correct to say he would resurrect at the end of the day. It is My Power that will resurrect him at the end of the day but I am here with you now. I am the same yesterday, today and forever. Understand this, I am the Resurrection and the Life. I am the One that will resurrect him then and I am the One that will resurrect him now!

“Everyone who believes in Me after dying will come back to life. And He says to Martha, do you believe this? And she says, I have always believed that you are the Messiah, the Son of God… Jesus responded, “Didn’t I tell you that you would see God’s glory if you believe?” John 11:26-27,40 [emphasis added]. Martha says to Jesus I believe you, Jesus says to Martha, if only you believe. Was Martha lying? No! Was Jesus not getting Martha? No! So what was going on? Martha believed in the Person of Jesus. But Jesus was saying, beyond believing in My Person, I need you to believe in My Power. It is one thing to believe in the Person of Jesus, it is another thing entirely to believe in the Power of Jesus.

Prayer: Lord Jesus, help me to believe in Your Person and in Your Power. Help me understand that You are able to do now what You did before and even what I have never seen, heard, or imagined, in Jesus Name.

His Channels

By
Rom.1:20 For ever since the world was created, people have seen the earth and sky. Through everything God made, they can clearly see his invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature. So they have no excuse for not knowing God [with emphasis]. So far we have examined three channels God uses to speak to us. If you are not reading your Bible consistently, if you are not listening to messages over and over again, and if you are not accountable to other believers, you do not have believers that are speaking into your life, you have already missed three main channels God speaks through. Channel #4: God speaks to us through His Creation. Ps.19:1 The heavens proclaim the glory of God. The skies display his craftsmanship. 2 Day after day they continue to speak; night after night they make him known. 3 They speak without a sound or word; their voice is never heard. 4 Yet their message has gone throughout the earth, and their words to all the world [with emphasis]. God’s cre...

THEME: You Can Create Whatever You Desire John 16:21-27 The instrument with which you exercise dominion over creation is your mouth.You can create whatsoever you desire by speaking that thing into existence.Whatever you say begins to exist in the spiritual form.Jesus said in John 6:63,"The words that I speak unto you,they are spirit,and they are life". In like manner,you create whatever you say and the things begin to exist in the spiritual form.What you create through words also have life and they continue to live until they find physical expression.  This is exactly what happens when you pray.The things you declare in prayer come alive and begin to exist in their spiritual form.They remain in that spiritual form until they are converted to their tangible equivalent through work. Jesus said,"until now you have asked nothing in My name.Ask,and you will receive,that your joy may be full" (John 16:24). Don't make the mistake of relaxing after you have pray...

THEME: RETREAT TO REFRESH READ: Matt. 11:25-30 When some musicians want to release great songs, they retreat to secluded places where they can reflect, meditate and create. Some choose places overlooking the vast oceans, some choose where there are waterfalls, and some choose places with thick forestations.  As they observe the beauty of nature, the swift moves and songs of the soaring birds, the colourful flowering vegetations, the serene beaches and the unending waves of the nearby waters, they capture inspiration that helps them develop the hit songs they have been longing for. I met one of the world’s renowned musicians in Atlanta, USA a few years ago where journalist surrounded him and were asking what he had come to do and why his beards had grown so much. He said that his last album did not perform well enough and he was incubating another one he wanted to release that would perform better. He said that he needed to pull away from the Noise of New York and California ...
