first off. two posts in three days? i must be making my mother so proud =)
now for the real stuff. i was reading this afternoon after an intense morning of manual labor clearing and taking back land for the Lord, and a few things hit me… and as i have learned recently from a sweet young lady who never hits anyone, but is definitely blessed with the gift of prophecy, when the Lord wants to show me something, sometimes He really has to HIT ME, for it to sink in. more on that later.
two quotes from Naturally Supernatural by Gary Best.
“Anyone could potentially do anything that Jesus did simply because kingdom power is rooted in obedience rather than being specially anointed.”
“Whatever it is that God has prepared as our part – whether something visibly powerful like healing, deliverance or miracles or something less visible like works of kindness, generosity of love – if we join him in it, the full grace of heaven can be released.”
so i leave you with this: obey and join Jesus in whatever you are doing.
Edit: so there appears to have been a bit of confusion about this blog… i am not in any way saying that Jesus was not special. i simply believe that Gary Best was on to something when he said we could potentially do big things when we have FAITH and are OBEDIENT to God.
Matthew 17:20, “He replied, “Because you have so little faith. I tell you the truth, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there’ and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.”
