Creative Miracles 4
We have been discussing the very nature that God is and that is of a creator. To understand this facet of him is to be empowered to understand his very nature.
What makes him tick, You see he is a creator that enjoys his creation, and all of his creation is subject to him.
One day every knee shall bow and every tongue confess that he is Lord and creator and that we are all subject to him!
Now when we get this revelation of who he is and then couple with that the understanding that he made us in his image…… Then understanding mans creative nature makes all the sense in the world.
How man creates with his hands and mind, sculpture and music and furniture and homes and cities.
With this revelation and understanding we can now move on to the real point of the past months teaching and that is simply this….
You and I were born to create! Creative miracles should permeate our lives because we were made in the creators likeness and he even lives in you and I.
Scripture gives us some keys in unlocking the faith to move in the miraculous and creative miracles.
The first and most important key to having the faith to move on creative miracles is to have a revelation of who Elohim is.
Gen 1:1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
The word for God here is elohim in the plural so actually it Could be translated as
“In the beginning the God’s created the heaven and the earth.
It uses the plural Hebrew word here so we can actually say the God’s or the Trinity.
So together the Father the son and the Holy Ghost created the heavens and the earth in the beginning.
The later in Genesis God speaks in plural form again…
Gen 1:26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. Then again later in Genesis
Gen 11:7 Go to, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another's speech.
You cannot ignore the “us” or if you are researching the Hebrew you cannot ignore the plurality of God referring himself or themselves.
Well who do you think us is? It is the Father son and HS And if you have a hard time with the Trinity then these scriptures pretty much trip you up on your argument!
It was the Trinity all three of them that created everything!
We need a revelation of this supreme being of creation!
Power in Spoken Word
There is power in God’s Word
Isa 55:11 So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.
When God speaks all of creation listens because it will either have to go along with it or get rolled over!
It does not come back to him without first accomplishing what he sent it out to do! There is creative power in the Word, especially when it is spoken out of revelation from God!
We have to have an understanding of our authority in Christ’s kingdom as creative beings, combined with the power and authority of the HS.
We need a real revelation from deep within us that the nature of God lives within us and that we are rulers and judges with divine connections.
God Word is on top of everything else even his name….
You ladies will have to go to tea time to find out where in the bible it says that!
Listen creative miracles are released by what you say!
Do you want to know a scripture that if you are smart will literally change how and what you will speak?
Pro 18:21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.
Watch what you say!
You and I are going to eat the fruit of what we speak and say!
Scripture says that life and blessing and curses and death are found in the words we speak! You reap what you sow and we need to be careful of letting your tongue release criticism, judgments or gossip.
But what I really want to study on is the power of what is said and not concentrate on negative things we say but on creative statements!
I want to stay focused on the creative power of the tongue when it comes to healing miracles and signs and wonders.
God has put creative power in you and you need to let out that creative power and follow thru with Rom 4:17
Rom 4:17 (As it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations,) before him whom he believed, even God, who quickeneth the dead, and calleth those things which be not as though they were.
We need a revelation of this creative power like the centurion did. Remember he approached Jesus and asked him only to speak because as a soldier he understood the power of a spoken word.
He had a revelation of the who Jesus was and if he was who he said he was then he only needed to speak.
Rom 8:11 But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.
That same Spirit that raised Jesus from the dead lives in you, get a hold of that! You have heard it over and over it is nothing new that I am speaking but we have not gotten a hold of it!
As we receive the fullness of understanding then and only then will we be able to say Stretch forth your withered hand and expect it to be healed!
Miracles will start to happen, when you and I speak God’s Word with authority creative have no choice but to happen!
You and I were born to create!
Being a Pioneer
Unfortunately in the church age we live in now few are willing to believe such a message as you have heard this past few weeks.
Then among those that believe, few are willing to take the onslaught attack and opposition that will come with a ministry of healings and miracles.
Pastors that believe in it are too busy with the business of the church instead because they do not want the controversy that comes with it. Church business is easier to deal with…
The miracle ministry challenges what most people believe and what most ministries are doing. But somebody has to break through right!
I say let it be Living Word right here in San Antonio, but lets take it one step farther.
I say not only will it be LivingWord but more importantly it will not be only the pastor but the partners from the congregation that are moving in the miraculous!
Somebody has to be willing to pioneer the healing and miracles again to see the power of God restored to the church!
We got to have faith! Not only for healings and deliverances but for creative miracles, and they really are so easy if we can come to the revelation of who God is and who we are in him and because of him!
We must not be afraid of failure, we cannot be afraid of praying for someone and then they die.
Not all the sick will be healed when you pray for them.
There will be angry people and those that will persecute this church and you that are bold enough to move in these gifts, but God is not going to do it without us,
God has not stopped doing the miraculous, we have!
Its is time for us if we consider ourselves God’s people to start pressing in for the anointing. We have got to be bold and go and stand out and stand up for the Kingdom!
We have to roll back the reproach and rebukes and not be afraid of failure.
We need to continue laying hands on people even if we go through 500 and nothing happens it may start for you on number 501!
Even if you or I are reproached by the world or on the news or whatever the price we have to continue and not give up.
And you know what? The worst case scenario will not happen to you because God will honor your faith and belief in his Word and promises.
Get a revelation of the creative power in you today and see God move when you speak according to his will and Word.
We will never understand miracles and healings while we are still in our bodies and living in this world so stop trying to figure them out.
It really is not complicated, remember it this way:
Creation does not happen without the HS And the same HS lives inside you
You can figure out the rest!
Joh 14:12 Verily, verily, 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. Joh 14:13 And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. Joh 14:14 If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it. Joh 14:15 If ye love me, keep my commandments.
We need to believe this with all of our heart and soul it is no different than believing in your salvation, it comes from the same book doesn’t it?
Lets pray that God would open our minds and hearts to all of his Word and launch Living Word and all of its partners into a ministry that demonstrates the full power of the gospel.
