We are meant to be Christ to others, we participate in Christ’s ongoing ministry to the brethren.
It was the Faith of the paralytic’s friends and brothers that Jesus healed him. The Faith of the Roman soldier that healed his daughter, not the daughters Faith.
Our Faith expressed vibrantly has great power to strengthen the Faith of others, not just to heal physically that’s small fry, but to heal the terrible maladies of soul.
“But I have prayed for you Simon, that your faith should not fail; and when you have returned to Me, strengthen your brothers.”
It is wholly biblical that the strong faith of others should strengthen our faith, and having been thus fortified to strengthen others.
Praying in faith to heal streeties of their addictions, how many times have we witnessed those great mountains cast off by faith.
You believe an ounce, Jesus can and will move a mountain with it. Jesus will do it if you believe. Just believe, Jesus will take it from there.
“ We can’t understand why these Faith based outreaches seem to be far more effective than our programs “
I can tell you why. Faith opens up the gates to the Infinite Power of God, it’s kind of hard to compete with that.
If we can’t trust Jesus, who else is there. So go the whole hog.
When we see total wrecks on the street, we tell Jesus we trust him to completely restore life and happiness to that person, and that there is no limit to his power, mercy and love. Have no doubt.
Watch then the power the Resurrection anew in our day.
Do not put limits on Jesus, the measure you measure will be measured unto you.
If you feel you have little Faith then ask for it.
Say “Jesus I Love you, Jesus I trust in you”, make it your very heartbeat.
The very Name of Jesus makes Him ever more present under our roof, it is The Name above all other names, fan the flames by This Holy Name, call on Him constantly.
Now step out in Faith.
