The Son’s Heart
Matt.6:10 “Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.” [KJV]
Every Son knows the ordinance of His Father [the ways of the Father]. Remember when Jesus was tempted in the wilderness and satan said to Him, “If you are the Son of God [you know the ordinance of heaven], turn these stones into bread”. But Jesus said, “It is written, man shall not live by bread alone but by every Word…” What Jesus was saying in essence is, “Even though there is a formula to turn stones into bread, it is not the heart of the Father for Me to turn stones into bread”. I hope you get this.
The Father’s Heart
Ps.103:7 “He revealed his character to Moses and his deeds to the people of Israel”
The ways of God are both the formula [the ordinance of heaven] and the act [the character] of the Father. You must know both to understand the ways of God. It is not just the ordinances; if you know just the formulas you are going to get into trouble. Why? It is because if you know just the formula, you will get the result. The beauty of the formula is that you do not even have to be saved to know it. If you know it and work it, you will get the results but you can lose your soul. It is possible to actually operate under the ordinances of heaven and go to hell.
Acts And Ways
Ps.103:7 “He made known his ways unto Moses, his acts unto the children of Israel” [KJV]
To labour [work] with God, you must know what to do. In working with God you must understand that there are the Acts of God, which are the miracles that we see. And there are the Ways of God, which is how the miracles come to be. “He made known his ways unto Moses, his acts unto the children of Israel”. God showed Moses His ways, the workings of the miracles. But He showed the miracles, the end results, to the children of Israel.
Partnership
Job 38:1 “Then the Lord answered Job from the whirlwind: 2 “Who is this that questions my wisdom with such ignorant words? 3 Brace yourself like a man, because I have some questions for you, and you must answer them”
God does not want us to lose sight of the fact that He is undeniably God and that we need Him for miracles to happen. Please read Job 38:1-21. God does not usually speak in a whirlwind but when God speaks to you in a whirlwind, you know there is trouble. Picture the beach for a moment and how the waves charge towards you; but they get to a point and they run back. God actually put a barrier for the sea; you cannot see the barrier but the waves know it. The reason there is erosion is because man has pushed back the water. The point is this – God is awesome.
Tactical Maneuver
John 8:6 “This they said, tempting him, that they might have to accuse him. But Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground, as though he heard them not.” [KJV]
I have taken steps that if God did not come through, I would have died. But God came through. You cannot buy the Holy Ghost with money. Simon the sorcerer saw what was happening and he offered to give Stephen and Peter money in exchange for the power to work miracles. Their response to him is as true today as it was in his day; you cannot buy the Holy Ghost with money. I had to sit down under Pastor Sam and learn what he was doing. I had to learn that the Holy Spirit is the source of miracles and that when it comes to faith, having a plan B negates your faith. What do you need to know and who do you need to learn from?
Body Of Evidence
Acts 1:8 “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes upon you. And you will be my witnesses, telling people about me everywhere—in Jerusalem, throughout Judea, in Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.”
The Holy Spirit Is The Source of Miracles. You must prioritize your relationship with the Holy Spirit. Earlier on in my walk with God, I believed that God was powerful but I had my reservations about the “miracle thing”. I had seen my mother and my grandmother pray and things happened. It was not that I did not trust the Pastors that God was using to work the miracles. But when people testified of miracles, I just felt they were being over-zealous. That was how much of God I knew and understood at that time. Things are very different now.
