Very, very, 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; because I go
unto my father (John 14:12).
The Lord Jesus
performed several miracles while he was here on earth; He healed the sick,
raised the dead, multiplied food, and turned water into wine. His life was an
unending stream of miraculous. As He prepared to leave the earth, he declared
that those who believe in him would do even greater works than he did. That
means He has made us miracles workers just like Him! He said “very, very, 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; because I go unto my Father.
When Peter and John
met the crippled man at the gate of the temple, Peter said “silver and gold
have I none; but such as I have give I thee: in the name of Jesus Christ of
Nazareth rise up and walk” (Act 3:6). Then Peter grabbed the man’s hand and
lifted him up and he walk! Peter didn’t pray to God to heal the man; Peter
performed the miracle in the name of Jesus! That’s the kind of life He’s called
you to live. Remember the words of the master: “ye shall receive power, after
that the Holy Ghost is come up you” (Act 1:8). Power is the “dynamic ability to
cause changes.”
The question
therefore is: Have you received the Holy Ghost? If you have, then you’re a
miracles-worker like Jesus, for it was the Holy Ghost in Him that made Him do
those works. Whether it’s someone around you who needs the miracle, or it’s
you, you can effect the change you desire. Is someone sick around you? Go ahead
and lay your hands on that one and demand a recovery in the Name of Jesus. Is
it a miracle you need at work? Declare the change you want to see in the Name
of Jesus. You have no reason to feel disadvantaged or helpless anymore, because
miracle-working ability is in you now!
