Jesus said that we who believed on him would do the same works he did and even greater works:
John 14:12 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also and greater works than these shall he do…
What works did Jesus do? He healed the sick delivered the oppressed, stilled storms, worked miracles.
Jesus said we’d be able to do these works…
John 14:12… because I go unto my Father.
By which he meant not a change in location but his exaltation, his being seated at the right hand of the father, far above all principality and power and every name that is named both in this world and that which is to come; his being given a name above every name; his exaltation to the place of supreme authority in heaven and in earth. With that in the minds of his disciples, he turns to them and says:
John 14:13 And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. 14 If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it.
Whatever His disciples ask in His name He, as The great King over all the Earth, will make it so, Amen.
As a child of God, one who has accepted Jesus as your Lord and Savior, you have a powerful weapon at your disposal—the Word of God.
by Kenneth Copeland
“For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.” –Hebrews 4:12, NIV
The Word is the No. 1 weapon God has given you to win in life. When applied correctly, it can solve any problem—financial disaster, chronic illness, crumbling marriage, broken relationship, political unrest… anything!
Of course, like all weapons, the Word is most effective when wielded correctly. Consequently, if you don’t know how to use your weapon, it’s useless. Your weapon, the Word of God, can just lie there on your bookshelf collecting dust, or you can get it out and learn how to use it.
How do you learn to use the Word of God? You study it, apply it to your life, and speak it aloud. These actions will allow the Word to change you from the inside out by renewing your mind and helping you line up your life with God’s ways.
You may be thinking, Can reading God’s Word, applying it and speaking it really make that big of a difference? Yes, it can and will!
Simply look at the ministry of Jesus. He gave us the greatest example of what it looks like to live out the Word of God faithfully. In fact, that’s exactly what His life was—the Word of God come to life.
“I tell you the truth, the Son can do nothing by himself. He does only what he sees the Father doing. Whatever the Father does, the Son also does…. I do nothing on my own but say only what the Father taught me.” (John 5:19, 8:28).
Jesus is the living embodiment of the Word of God. And guess what? You are His joint heir. You have access to everything He had access to. In fact, He made this promise about you: “I tell you the truth, anyone who believes in me will do the same works I have done, and even greater works, because I am going to be with the Father” (John 14:12).
By studying God’s Word, applying it and speaking it—all with the help of the Holy Spirit, by faith—you will receive miraculous results just like Jesus did. Here’s how to get started.
Have a God filled day, ripe with testimonies we decree and receive in Jesus’ name, Amen
