GREATER THINGS


I have been thinking about what faith accompanied by expectation looks like from Heavens perspective.

When Jesus said that those who believe in Him would do what He had been doing and even greater things He didn’t stop there.  Incredibly He also said that we could ask for anything in His name and that He would do it, so that our Father in Heaven would get the glory.

There are journeys into the realms of heaven that are opportunities for unlimited adventures in faith. Beyond the limits of our ability to ask and the borders of our imagination are realms in God that are waiting to be explored.

Holy Spirit is longing to take us ‘off road’ into the immeasurably more, supernaturally empowering us to discover the heights and the depths, the width and the length of His love, the limitless realms of His divine nature of which we are called to be partakers.  As He takes us on this adventure of faith, of trust, into the depths of His heart, He fills us so completely that we can’t help but overflow with hope releasing His love and power, His presence, diffusing the fragrance of the one we love as we go.

These places in Him are for us to discover, places of unlimited resources, infinite and eternal.  When our perspectives match those of the Kingdom of Heaven and the heart of its King what we have the privilege and joy of discovering there will be lavishly and unreservedly manifest here on Earth in greater and greater measure.

This journey of faith often causes me to ask myself from what perspective am I living from?

When I recognise that I am questioning what Jesus has said is possible I make changes to the way I am thinking so that my thoughts are in line with the reality in which I am called to live, from Heaven towards Earth.

Faith accompanied by expectation from Heavens perspective ……. discovering the greater things, the journey continues.

TELL THE STORIES 

Recently I have been thinking about the potential of the unlimited power of the stories (testimonies) we carry.

As ‘miracle grow’ is to a garden so testimonies are to the seedbed of hope in which faith grows!!

In Hebrews the word testimony means ‘do it again’.

Potential is turned into action when we tell these stories of gloriously outrageous goodness with the expectancy that God will do it again, his heart and will having already been revealed.

Celebrating and remembering what God has done becomes an invitation for His love and power to be released again and again in the present which in turn sets up future victories that have already been established in eternity.

Our stories bring the reality of Heaven into people’s lives …..

Tell the stories.

UNCONDITIONAL


God’s love is unconditional.

Healing is an expression of the outrageous, unrelenting torrent of grace that flows from the heart of a good good Father.

It is not based on worth – all that came to Jesus were healed but not all followed.

We have the privilege of seeing the realities of Heaven impact people’s lives – no strings attached, no hidden agendas except …..

UNCONDITIONAL LOVE 💕

THE BATTLE FOR HEALING … 100 % DREAMERS UNITE


Not everyone we pray for is healed …… YET.

Written in my bible is the date, 15th July 2015, with the names of three people . An 8 year old girl who was registered blind, a young father confined to a wheelchair after a spinal injury and his 7 year old daughter.

I love telling stories of people being healed and set free through encountering God however this story is about a moment that wrecked me, marked me and changed my heart.

I was part of a ‘healing’ team, a large number of people had been experiencing the love and power of God, it seemed at one point that everyone who came were being healed. Others were being filled with Holy Spirit, there was a lot of laughing and celebrating.
It was amidst this that the 8 year old girl was brought along by her friend, we prayed for some time and nothing seemed to change, she thanked us and left, still blind. I didn’t have time to register how I felt as we were back to praying for others. Then came the Father in his wheelchair and his daughter, we prayed for some time and again nothing appeared to happen, he was wheeled away, still paralysed. His daughter came running back to me, her deep brown eyes looked deeply into mine, as she repeatedly said ‘thank you for praying for my Daddy, thank you for praying for my Daddy’. I held back my tears, we talked for a while and then she skipped off along side her Fathers wheel chair.
Turning back into the ‘healing tent’, trying to put aside what I was feeling, I couldn’t. I felt angry, disappointed and then a deep wave of compassion filled my heart as I found myself saying over and over again ‘it’s not ok, that is not ok’.   It was in that moment that I responded to what I felt Heaven was placing in my heart. I made the decision to commit myself, without reservation, to join in the battle to see healing fully re established as central to the good news of the Kingdom.

What I have been learning since then is that It is a battle motivated by love and fought from a place of rest by Sons and Daughters who are full of an outrageously glorious hope because they know their Heavenly Father to be outrageously gloriously good.
Walking this path means carrying a resolute refusal to give in or back down and a determination to push boundaries, seeing the realities of Heaven being released. It means taking risks so that people can live in the benefit of all that Jesus paid for, lives lived to their fullest potential and the freedom that comes from being made whole in every way.

Victory in this area brings great moments of celebration and tears of joy, defeat brings tears of a different kind such is the undulating battle ground those who have signed up for this fight find themselves on.  ltimately it is a journey of courage, full of glorious adventures in faith.

The truth is everyone that came to Jesus was healed and in Acts 5 everyone brought to the Apostles were healed. Our responsibility, when we become aware of truth, is to accept nothing less than what has been demonstrated as possible, as normal, and to go after it until we see it.
Our responsibility is to not give up or back down, it is being real with God and dealing with disappointments. It is having the confidence that what we hope for will actually happen, it is having an assurance about things we cannot see.
It is dreaming big with a good and compassionate God

It is Jesus getting everything that He paid for.

It is Sons and Daughters of a good good Father knowing who they are, whose they are and the authority they carry.

It is knowing that it is always Gods will to heal.

It is knowing ……. it is POSSIBLE.

Jesus said ‘heal the sick’. He never asks us to do anything that He won’t back up.
Simply believe ….
