HOW DO YOU PRESENT YOURSELF?

How do you present yourself before God, before people, before your family?

Do they know you as a born again?

Do they enjoy your salvation?

The bible says Jesus grew in stature pleasing God and people. This is how you introduce yourself, by pleasing God and people. What do people talk about you? Jesus asked His disciples, what do people call me? No one said He is a murder or a hypocrite but they were all comparing Jesus with other servants of God, they knew that He was a servant of God. Then He asked the disciples again what do you call me and Peter said, Lord you are the son o the living God, and Jesus answered Peter that it was His heavenly Father who revealed it to him.

To know the servant of God you need a revelation from God. If Jesus has never revealed who the servant of God is, you will take a servant of God just like any other person. Because of Peter’s answer, Jesus announced to Peter that He will build His church on him and no no gates of hell shall not prevail it.  Keep your life focused like Peter because you don’t know what Jesus want to do with you next week or next year, your day is coming. Anything can happen anytime.

How can you focus for you to receive your miracle?

Mark 5:25-34 “ Now there was a woman who had been suffering from hemorrhages for twelve years. ²⁶ She had endured much under many physicians, and had spent all that she had; and she was no better, but rather grew worse. ²⁷ She had heard about Jesus, and came up behind him in the crowd and touched his cloak, ²⁸ for she said, “If I but touch his clothes, I will be made well.” ²⁹ Immediately her hemorrhage stopped; and she felt in her body that she was healed of her disease. ³⁰ Immediately aware that power had gone forth from him, Jesus turned about in the crowd and said, “Who touched my clothes?” ³¹ And his disciples said to him, “You see the crowd pressing in on you; how can you say, ‘Who touched me?’” ³² He looked all around to see who had done it. ³³ But the woman, knowing what had happened to her, came in fear and trembling, fell down before him, and told him the whole truth. ³⁴ He said to her, “Daughter, your faith has made you well; go in peace, and be healed of your disease.”

If you want to receive your miracle carry the truth, speak the truth, live the truth, work the truth.

The bible in that verse shows that when you are sick there are more problems including

·       More pain from the hands of people you trust

·       Poverty because the devil will eat all your money

·       Loneliness

·       Separation

This shows that sickness will eat you physically, mentally and financially.

The woman in the bible decided to come to her sense, focused and realise that if she will touch the garment of Jesus she will be healed. For this you should know that healing does not come from above but it comes from someone who is in this world who serves God. The disease a woman had was from the power of darkness that is why another power was needed to get rude of the power of darkness which was torturing her and that was the power of the life of Christ. There are some pains which will never leave you until you meet an extra power.

Jesus told the woman that your faith has healed you this means there is something we receive by faith. He also commanded the woman to go with peace because Jesus knew that faith alone don’t give peace, even thought it can make you strong. Even though the woman was healed she had no peace because she lost everything that is why Jesus commanded peace to her. Peace is a source of your success.

You will grow financially, in marriage and in all areas because you have peace. Peace is a source of your success, miracles and strength. If there is no peace anything can happen to you. Peace is your cage to keep you safe. It is not a temporary thing but a permanent thing. Even when you receive a miracle, if there is no peace, there will be no continuity of that miracle. We must understand the power of peace.

If you have faith it is easier for you to have more, like a woman who received more than healing from Jesus because of her faith.

You should know that the problem you faced and be taken away can comeback if there will be an empty space. The bible says if the demonised have been prayed off and the demon has gone, that person will be empty and so that person must be filled with something else where there were demons because the devil who carries the problems will be wondering around and come to see that person because he wants to come back. If you are healed please make sure you put something in your life because if not that disease will come back. That is why Jesus commanded and restored to that woman more than healing.

Any problem that has been troubling you tell God because He knows the source. There is no distance between you and Him, He hears your prayers and He loves you.

Receive a command of peace in your life.
