THE POWER OF REFLECTING AND TESTIFYING ABOUT JESUS

Revelation 19:10b (TPT, GNB), Mark 5:25-27, 29 …Worship God. The testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.…Worship God!” For the truth that Jesus revealed is what inspires the prophets.a …woman, which had an issue of blood twelve years, And had suffered many things of many physicians, and had spent all that she had, and was nothing bettered, but rather grew worse, When she…heard of Jesus, came in the press behind, and touched his garment. *And straightway the fountain of her blood was dried up; and she felt in her body that she was healed of that plague.

Whenever you are testifying about Jesus, you are not just carrying out a religious act of service. You are prophesying and you are declaring God’s mind. Jesus is what God is saying now, (Heb.1:1-2). Jesus is who God wants the whole world to focus on and listen to right now, (Matt.17:5). We have been sent by God to testify about Jesus and we have been empowered by the Holy Spirit to do this, (Acts 1:8). The testimony of Jesus is always backed up and confirmed by God’s power.

God manifests His great power and blessings whenever we testify about Jesus. The Bible says, “with great power the apostles continued to testify to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus, and much grace was upon them all,” (Acts 4:33, NIV). When we testify about Jesus, His grace is activated and manifested. People need to know that Jesus is Lord and that He is alive and full of wonder working power. People need to know that Jesus loves them and that He died to save them and set them free. It was because people were
testifying about Jesus that the woman with the issue blood heard about Jesus, received faith to be healed and she proceeded to touch Jesus and receive her healing from the terrible condition that she had suffered for so many years. The more we testify about Jesus, the more people will have faith to come to Him and to call on His name and be touched, saved and blessed by the power of God.

Now, we can testify about Jesus with both our words and with our actions. We can lay hands on the sick and they will recover, we can raise the dead, we can cast out devils, (Matt.10:8). We can solve problems and create value just like Jesus would do if He was in our shoes. Reflect His authority in all you do.

Action Point:
Pray in the Spirit right now and receive a fresh anointing to reflect and testify about Jesus like never before.
