Without the
miraculous the cross of Christ would lose its impact and become another dead
religion. This would bring the cross of Christ to the realm of reason and
argument. If this were to be, then the Word of God could only be delivered by
orators. True Christianity however is in the demonstration of the Spirit and of
Power. Anything short of this is substandard. ‘
Several
years ago, I heard TL Osborn tell his great inspirational story. He was a
missionary in India with his wife. They ministered to thousands of Hindus,
Moslems and several other people who had never heard the gospel of Jesus
Christ, but they weren’t winning as many people as they had anticipated. The
more they tried the lesser the result they had. Frustrated, TL Osborn and his
wife went back to America. He decided to study the Bible like he had never done
before. While he studied, the Lord Jesus appeared to him in a vision and he had
life – transforming revelations. As marvellous as these experience were, they
weren’t enough!
One day, he
saw an advert inviting people to a healing crusade organized by another man of
God and he decided to go. When he got to the crusade he saw the man of God
perform different kinds of miracles in the Name of Jesus; the lame walked the
blind saw and the dumb spoke. As he watched all these things he heard a
thousand voices saying, “You can do that
….you can do that …….you can do that ….” He had received the revelation of
Jesus in the book and then in a vision. Now, he got the greatest revelation of
all; the revelation of Jesus in a man. He and his wife went back to India this
time armed with a fresh revelation of Jesus the Christ. As he mounted the
platform to minister, deaf ears were unstopped, blind eyes opened, the lame
jumped and danced for joy; there were mighty demonstrations of the power of the
Spirit. Thousands of souls were also won to Christ. It’s been that way in his
ministry ever since.
We can’t
make the necessary impact in the world for Jesus without the miraculous.
Therefore, don’t take anyone who says otherwise seriously, irrespective of his
status or reputation, for he or she surely doesn’t truly believe in Jesus
Christ!
PRAYER
DEAR FATHER, I THANK
YOU FOR GIVING ME A MESSAGE THAT WORKS! THANK YOU FOR BACKING MY WORDS WITH
