Saturday, October 27, 2007 – From John 14v12

“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 My Father.” John 14v12

Who me? Yes you. Jesus is talking to us all – as many as believe on Him. Really, one might ask – I will actually heal the sick, raise the dead, let the lame walk, the blind see … all that Jesus did, and greater than that. Oh wow! Some asked Jesus along these lines saying:

“Then said they unto Him, What shall we do, that we might work the works of God?

Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on Him whom He hath sent.” John 6v28&29

Believing in Jesus, also means you believes what He tells you. Now, why was it expedient that Jesus go to the Father? And here we see an introduction the Holy Spirit, the Third Person in the Trinity, whom Jesus said He will ask the Father to send to us. The Holy Spirit gives us power from above. But you have to be Jesus’ to have the Holy Spirit of God. And here we see in Acts 1v8 where Jesus says:

“But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto Me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.” Acts 1v8

Hallelujah.

Have a blessed day.

Our dearest Father in Heaven,
Hallowed be Your name. We praise You, we exalt You, we lift You up high, we thank You, for all that You are doing, all that You have done and all that You are yet to do. We thank You for Your goodness and for Your lovingkindness. We thank You for Your presence in our lives and for Your gift of love, of salvation. We thank You for sending Jesus to die for us on the cross of Calvary, He being delivered for our offences, and raised again for our justification. Thank You Jesus for dying on the cross of Calvary for us, we thank You for You were wounded for our transgressions, You were bruised for our iniquities, the chastisement of our peace was upon You and by Your stripes, we are healed. We thank You so much for the Holy Spirit of truth who is here with us, to guide us into all truth, for He does not speak of Himself, but whatsoever He hears, that does He speak, and He shall shew us things to come. Thank You Father, thank You Son, thank You Holy Spirit of God, it is such an awesome priviledge to be a part of the great and wonderful family of the Almighty God. Father Lord we pray that You draw more men unto You and use us to spread the savour of the knowledge of You in all the face of the earth, even now and ever more, in Jesus name we pray, amen.
