Beginning Signs and Wonders

Mary must have seen Jesus doing private signs, wonders and miracles and so decided He must share His ability with others. Why wine? What is the significance of water into wine? Wine affects your spirit and can cause your heart to sing and be merry. It is also a cleanser, relaxer, restorer and all round comfort if not overdone. Mary instructed the servants to do whatever Jesus said.

Six waterpots were used. Six being the number of man. We were carried in water in our mothers wombs and now Jesus commands us to be born again or be carried in spirit or new wine of the Holy Spirit. John baptized in water but Jesus baptizes in the Holy Spirit and fills us just like a waterpot to the brim.

"Draw some out now and take it to the Master of the feast." Jesus says in John 2:8. When people draw on spirit filled followers of Jesus it is like a sweet wine with all the benefits of peace and joy that we experience when we are filled to the brim. Signs, wonders and miracles do happen as a result of expecting from a person fully yielded and filled to the brim. As a spirit filled individual with the new wine of the Holy Ghost we must always get a refill after moving in the workings of the Lord.

We manifest His glory when we allow the Master to brim us up and draw on us to help others. This is happening 'big time' in Lakeland , Florida in the new outpouring of the Holy Spirit with the Todd Bentley team. Todd tells folks to come and receive or get filled up to take back to their nation and let others draw on them for their infilling for healing, needs, miracles,and comfort. The Holy Spirit is the Comforter.

The healing rooms springing up all over the world are manifesting the glory of Jesus as they pray and lay hands on the sick and crippled and diseased. Every person carried by the Holy Spirit can offer their time and prayers and laying on of hands to the lost and dying world. Refilling is a must and Jesus will see to it as He requires us to be continually filled with purpose for others.

Let there be a beginning of signs in each filled person to affect the rest of God's creation. Doing whatever Jesus tells us to do with each case and trusting Him to fulfill His word to never leave us nor forsake us. Amen!

City Visits with Jesus

In the city of Nain after Jesus came there was no more need except in the unemployment area. Even then Jesus offered to employ them in the gospel. Starting in the book of Luke in the Holy Bible (or Holy book of books) we envision Jesus and His entourage approaching the gate to Nain. Coming out was a funeral procession heading to bury one of their dead.
Jesus spied the one most affected by the trauma and spoke an order to the mom of the corpse. Luke 7:11-23 (King James Version)
11And it came to pass the day after, that he went into a city called Nain; and many of his disciples went with him, and much people.
12Now when he came nigh to the gate of the city, behold, there was a dead man carried out, the only son of his mother, and she was a widow: and much people of the city was with her.
13And when the Lord saw her, he had compassion on her, and said unto her, Weep not.(Could you stop crying for a stranger?) 14And he came and touched the bier: and they that bare him stood still. And he said, Young man, I say unto thee, Arise.
15And he that was dead sat up, and began to speak. And he delivered him to his mother.
16And there came a fear on all: and they glorified God, saying, That a great prophet is risen up among us; and, That God hath visited his people.( WOW!) How will we react when this happens in our cities? What kind of a reception will there be for such a person as Jesus with that authority? Wouldn't you want that kind of timing for someone you love? The fear of death would leave us immediately and we would want Jesus to stay with us forever.
20When the men were come unto Jesus, they said, John Baptist hath sent us unto thee, saying, Art thou he that should come? or look we for another?
21And in that same hour he cured many of their infirmities and plagues, and of evil spirits; and unto many that were blind he gave sight.
22Then Jesus answering said unto them, Go your way, and tell John what things ye have seen and heard; how that the blind see, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, to the poor the gospel is preached.
23And blessed is he, whosoever shall not be offended in me.
Imagine that! The lame and crippled cannot stay lame and crippled, the blind cannot stay blind, the lepers cannot remain lepers, the aids and plagues of any kind cannot be there, the deaf cannot stay deaf, the dead cannot stay dead, the poor are not to be poor anymore. A city where there are no blind, no deaf, no sickness, no disease, no cancers, the dead live again and there is no need financially. Who could possibly be offended? Those who rely on negative happenings to make their living.
Doctors, lawyers, funeral directors, crematoriums, disability factories, pharmacists, drug companies, traffickers, pushers and every negative profession would have to relocate or change careers. No more paraplegics or quadriplegics, weak or insane among us.
Is any of this possible where you live? Yes! Jesus will gladly come to your city and perform all the miracles, signs and wonders. When? Pray that it be soon for your sakes and the sakes of all your families, friends and neighbours. Invite Him daily and expect that He will answer that prayer with perfect timing. He is scheduled to show up as soon as Father God gives His Son the word. In the meantime we can lay hands on the sick and see them recover too !

If You can Believe Jesus Christ

To work for anything or anyone else but Jesus Christ is unprofitable. Food and clothing and shelter can be provided by the Lord who is the Great Provider if you can believe Him. Jesus requires all our time and effort to get His message out. He will take care of all our needs as He depicts in John 6 of His Word. http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?language1=en &version1=9&search=John+6

In verse 2 the multitude came to Him to see miracles of healing. Jesus showed them the miracle of feeding 5,000 people with 1 serving of fish and bread from a child. In verse 26 the people caught up to Jesus on the other side of the Lake and He said that they had come to Him now because He had fed them miraculously.

He encouraged them to labour with Him and work the works of God believing on Jesus as God's Son. Why do we not get it? We lack faith in Jesus. Trusting God for all our needs is not laziness. Work His works,signs,wonders and miracles.

Opportunity is all around us and Father can draw whoever He will as Jesus states in verse 44. Are we willing to believe that Jesus is the Christ and His work is to do the will of the Father God in Heaven through us like Billy Smith and his wife of Texas do? Evangelists who work the miracles, signs and wonders see the sweet provision of the Lord of the Harvest. We can too!
