I was really blessed reading THIS from Andrew Womack today!
Drawn By His Power
Mark 1:37, 'And when they had found him, they said unto him,
All [men] seek for thee.'
Mark 1:35-39; Luke
4:42-44
This is an amazing statement. Jesus' ministry was only a few
months old and the masses of people were already seeking him out.
This is even more astonishing when you realize that Jesus
had not used any of the conventional methods of publicity. In fact, Jesus had
already rejected publicity during His first ministry in Jerusalem (John 2:24-25). There was no natural explanation for Jesus' success.
God is the one who promoted Jesus. And He used supernatural
means to do it. It was not the slick techniques of Madison Avenue that brought
the crowds--it was the awesome manifestation of God's power.
Just the day before, Jesus had cast the demon out of a man
at the synagogue in Capernaum (Mark 1:21-28). This caused the whole city to
gather at Peter's house and Jesus healed every one of them (Luke 4:40).
Jesus' display of the miraculous power of God was the spark
that the Holy Spirit used to light a fire in the hearts of these people. Jesus
had this power because of His intimate relationship with His father. It is no
accident that He was praying while all men were seeking Him.
As you seek to touch others with the new life that you've
found in Christ, let God confirm His Word with the miraculous manifestations of
His power through you.
AMEN! Dare to believe that YOU are exactly who GOD says that you are in His Word! You HAVE what GOD says that you have in His Word! You CAN DO exactly what God says you can do in His Word! AMEN! Hdere is Hillsong with "Who You Say I AM":
Shalom in Him!
