EVERYTHING JESUS DID WE CAN DO
Jesus said, in John 14:12-13 "Most assuredly, I say to you, he wou believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also, and greater works than these he will do because I go to My Father. And whatever you ask in My name, that I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you ask anything in My name, I will do it."
I am so happy that my Pastor began teaching on this today. This has been ruminating inside of me and I have began to groan inside to hear another speak of the things that I am hearing from God and for him to beging teaching it makes me shout! When God has given you His revealed word on something, you are forever changed. You cannot go back and fit in the old you. You were changed on the inside and it manifests on the outside.
Let me explain a little more. A few years ago now, I heard the testimony of my Pastor speaking to the fire that was approaching his home and the fire was abated. I had the opportunity to speak to a fire that was approaching my home and the fire did not advance any further. Jesus spoke to the storm. The Bible says that He arose and rebuked the wind and said to the sea, Peace, be still. And the wind ceased and there was a great calm. Mark 4:39. Wouldn't you call a fire a storm if it burning out of control and burning up everything in its path?

We have the same authority Jesus had because He gave it to us. The Bible says in Luke 10:19 "Behold, I give you the authority to trample on
serpents and scorpion and over all the power of the enemy and nothing shall by any means hurt you.
The Bible says, "The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me because He has anointed Me to preach the gospel to the poor;
He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind,
To set at liberty those who are oppressed, to proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord.
Luke 4:18-19
If you believe in Jesus Christ and He is your Lord and Savior and you have received the baptism of the Holy Spirit, you are required to do what
Jesus did. The Bible says beloved do not forget this one thing, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.
The Holy Spirit has been poured out upon us and is urging us to be the greatness that God has placed on the inside of each of us. That greatness
is manifested when we pray first and then do what He says do. Looking forward to hearing what God has done through you.
Love, Elder Sheila Jones
