HOW TO FOCUS ON CHRIST FOR THE SUPERNATURAL (1)
2Corinthians 3:18 (AMPC), John 14:12
And all of us, as with unveiled face, [because we] continued to behold [in the Word of God] as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are constantly being transfigured into His very own image in ever increasing splendor and from one degree of glory to another; [for this comes] from the Lord [Who is] the Spirit.…He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works ….
The first way to focus on Christ to experience and manifest the supernatural is by understanding who Christ is and what He has accomplished for you by His death, burial and resurrection. As you understand things like the fact that your old life died with Christ, and a new you was raised up with Him (Rom.6:4-6, Eph. 2:4-6), your life will be transformed, faith will fill your heart, and you will experience and manifest the supernatural. The revelation of Christ is not ordinary. It is supernatural, and it causes us to experience and manifest the supernatural. This is why God wants us to fill ourselves with the revelation of Christ, (Col.3:16). The entire scriptures point to Christ and the only way we can receive the life of God from the scriptures, is as we study the scriptures and see Christ and what He has done for us, (John 5:39-40).
Faith does not just come by hearing the word of God; it comes by hearing what God has done for us through Christ. Romans 10:17 (LB) says “Yet faith comes from listening to this Good News—the Good News about Christ.” Galatians 3:5 (LB) says “I ask you again, does God give you the power of the Holy Spirit and work miracles among you as a result of your trying to obey the Jewish laws? No, of course not. It is when you believe in Christ and fully trust him.”
Prayer:
Father, please fill my heart with the revelation of the glorious things you did for me by the death, burial and resurrection of Christ.
