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 my Father.
Acts 10:38 How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him.
God wants us to raise our standard and focus and He wants us to peg both on Christ. God’s testimony of you is that the same life that is in Christ is also in you, 1 John 5:11. Do you believe this testimony? If you do, then you should also believe that you can do signs, wonders and miracles in the very same way that Jesus did. Jesus Himself assured us that because we believe in Him, we will engage in His works and even greater works. Child of God, you are a city set on a hill that cannot be hidden. In Christ, you have the ability to let your light so shine before men that they will see your good works and be so amazed that they will glorify your Father in Heaven, Matt. 5:14 & 16.
In Christ, God has made His grace available to you and you now have His sufficiency in every area of your life to abundantly do good works, 2 Cor. 9:8. He has anointed you with the same Holy Ghost and power that He anointed Jesus within our second text above. Ephesians 2:10 (AMP) reveals that we are God’s workmanship recreated in Christ Jesus for good works. Eyes have not seen, ears have not heard and minds have not imagined the things that God has planned and empowered you to do in Christ. You will do extraordinary things. Your accomplishments will be out of this world. You will set the pace and blaze the trail in your field and in all endeavours. You will perform heroic acts and mind blowing feats. You shall do the unimaginable in every area of your life. IN every environment that you are in, you will have the same effect that Christ would have if He were in that environment.
Prayer:
Creator God, I thank You for anointing me the same way You anointed Jesus. I receive Your grace to do exploits just like Jesus.
