Topic: Catalysts For Miracles [Wednesday 8, November 2017]
Memorise: “Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth.” – Mark 9:23
Read: Mark 9:19-29
19 He answereth him, and saith, O faithless generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I suffer you? bring him unto me.
20 And they brought him unto him: and when he saw him, straightway the spirit tare him; and he fell on the ground, and wallowed foaming.
21 And he asked his father, How long is it ago since this came unto him? And he said, Of a child.
22 And ofttimes it hath cast him into the fire, and into the waters, to destroy him: but if thou canst do any thing, have compassion on us, and help us.
23 Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth.
24 And straightway the father of the child cried out, and said with tears, Lord, I believe; help thou mine unbelief.
25 When Jesus saw that the people came running together, he rebuked the foul spirit, saying unto him, Thou dumb and deaf spirit, I charge thee, come out of him, and enter no more into him.
26 And the spirit cried, and rent him sore, and came out of him: and he was as one dead; insomuch that many said, He is dead.
27 But Jesus took him by the hand, and lifted him up; and he arose.
28 And when he was come into the house, his disciples asked him privately, Why could not we cast him out?
29 And he said unto them, This kind can come forth by nothing, but by prayer and fasting.
Bible In One Year: John 13-15. Hymn: Sing Hymn 1: O Lord My God
MESSAGE:
In the Kingdom of God, there is no room for impossibilities. Impossibilities only exist in the physical realm. As far as Heaven as is concerned, everything is possible.
Your newness in Christ Jesus gives you access to His Divinity so that you can call those things that be not as though they were. However, there are certain things that trigger the occurrence of signs and wonders in a person’s life. The bedrock is holy living.
Doubts and unbelief are the opposites of the miraculous. When we don’t believe what God is saying concerning any situation it becomes impossible to receive what God has promised. Also, when you enforce the Name of Jesus on any situation, you can be sure that the condition will change for better. At the mention of His Name, yokes are destroyed, oppositions naturally gives way and long endured problems became a thing of the past.
Prayer Point: Father, let me be the next in line for a miracle.
Sing Hymn 1: O Lord My God
1. O LORD my God! When I in awesome wonder
Consider all the works Thy hand hath made;
I see the stars, I hear the mighty thunder,
Thy pow’r throughout the universe displayed:
Chorus:
Then sings my soul, my Saviour God, to Thee,
How great Thou art! How great Thou art!
Then sings my soul, my Saviour God, to Thee,
How great Thou art! How great Thou art!
2. When through the woods and forest glades I wander
And hear the birds sing sweetly in the trees;
When I look down from lofty mountain grandeur,
And hear the brook, and feel the gentle breeze:
Chorus:
3. And when I think that God, His Son not sparing,
Sent Him to die – I scarce can take it in:
That on the Cross, my burden gladly bearing,
He bled and died to take away my sin:
Chorus:
4. When Christ shall come with shout of acclamation
And take me home – what joy shall fill my heart!
Then shall I bow in humble adoration,
And there proclaim, my God how great Thou art!
