Jesus told US to work miracles

And as ye go, 

️PREACH, saying, The kingdom of heaven is at hand.

HEAL the sick, 

CLEANSE the lepers, 

RAISE the dead, 

CAST OUT devils: 

freely ye have received, freely give.”

  — Matthew 10:7-8 (KJV)

 

And they went out, 

and PREACHED that men should repent.

And they CAST OUT many devils, 

and ANOINTED with oil many that were sick, 

and HEALED them.

 -- Mark 6:12-13 (KJV)


Many plead with and beg God to heal this one or that one, sometimes with fasting.  We're too quick to look to the doctors for help and solutions. (I'm not anti-doctors or medicine but are we quicker to turn to them than we are to pray the prayer of FAITH and believe?) 


Casting out devils - how often do we see that happen? Rarely!  We're not discerning them so we're medicating and sending them to counseling or a psychiatrist with a "Bless their heart. They need their medicine adjusted." Or "They just need some medication." (This is not against Biblical counsel and admonition.  This is referring to going to the counsel of ungodly.)


Raise the dead - how many actually pray for the dead to be raised back to life? Or do we sadly say, "it must have been their time to go"? (I know God is not going to raise every single person back to life but our commandment is to pray in faith and believe. The outcome is up to God.)


Jesus told US to HEAL the sick! 

Jesus told US to RAISE the dead!

Jesus told US to CLEANSE the lepers! 

Jesus told US to CAST OUT devils!

We have that authority and power through the Holy Ghost! 


“But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you....”   — Acts 1:8 (KJV)


We're just not walking in it like we should. 

We should not be content just seeing a little healing here and a little victory report there. 

God wants to do so much more through His people.  

We need to be walking in the power of the Holy Ghost.
