Improving our Spiritual Understanding
Memory Verses
“And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;
They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover. So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God. And they went forth, and preached every where, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following. Amen” ( Mark 16:17-20)

In Christ Jesus, our God is a miracle working God. We can see from our memory verses that miracles are confirmation of God’s words in the life of a believer. Miracles are for all those who believe and not for a few. Miracles are not magic.
We have evidence in the bible that we have a God who:
Made a virgin to conceive and have a son;
Made a 90 year old woman to be conceived and have a son;
Made scattered dried bones to come back to live and become a great army;
Sealed the lions mouth such that they could not harm Daniel in the lion’s den;
Appeared as 4th man on fire and preserved the three Hebrew Jews etc.
The entire bible is a manifestation of the miracles of God in Christ Jesus.
To be a partaker of these signs and wonders, we have to embrace purity, holiness and keep our focus on Jesus, the Word of God: “Looking unto Jesus…”(Heb 12:2). While on earth, on account of his total cleaving to his Father, Jesus was an embodiment of signs and wonders. He promised all those who will follow him and put their trust in him of greater works (John 14:12).
We have received empowerment from the Holy Spirit to raise the dead, heal the sick, set the captives free and turn many into righteousness. The Word 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 1:8).
If you have not been baptized in the Holy Spirit, called anointing, please ask for it. Every believer requires anointing. Jesus himself was anointed:
“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” (Acts 10:38).
Christianity without the empowerment of the Holy Spirit, will be extremely difficult. It is wisdom to lead others to righteousness. The power of the Holy Spirit makes you a star on earth.
And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever (Dan 12:3).
To grow spiritually requires daily meditation with the word of God (Joshua 1:8) and seeking first the kingdom of God and its righteousness (Matthew 6:33). It also requires total fear of God, and spiritual training in the word of God: “Train yourself to be godly”(1Tim 4:7-8 NIV).
Prayer
Dear Father, please confirm your words in our lives and use us for signs and wonders in your kingdom in Jesus mighty name. Amen.
Yours in the Vineyard of Christ.
