Simple Keys To Release The Power Of God In Our Lives
[I received this email from Sangat Bains who is moving God's Word
in India. I thought it might bless you. So I wanted to pass it along.]
Dear Wayne
God bless you and your family abundantly in the
powerful name of Jesus Christ.
I am writing today a general letter in which I
want to share with those to whom I am sending this mail the simple
keys to release the power of God in our lives.
Let us look at the Gospel of Mark.
Mark 11:22-24
And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God.
23 For verily I say unto you, That whosoever
shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast
into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe
that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall
have whatsoever he saith.
24 Therefore I say unto you, What things soever
ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, And ye
shall have them.
After the incident of Jesus speaking to the fig
tree and the fig tree dried up from the root and to the response
of Peter, Jesus spoke this truth. This is the wonderful Truth and
means exactly what he said here.
The simplicity of the Truth is the point of focus.
1. Have faith in God or Have faith of God. (Know
how big and great God is so that we are absolutely confident in
His ability to bring all thing to come to pass.
2. You say it (while keeping in mind that Great God that we have
confidence in shall bring to pass what we say) and it shall absolutely
be done. Do not complicate it. The Word or God says exactly what
He means.
3. So, when you pray, believe that you got it (because of God's
great ability to bring it to pass) and you shall have it.
This is applicable to all things and all situations
in our lives. But to focus on healing deliverance, and casting out
of the devils, we look at another scriptures in the Gospel of Mark.
Mark 16:17, 18
And these signs shall follow them who believe; In my name shall
they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;
18 They shall take up serpents; and if they drink
any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands
on the sick, and they shall recover.
That's exactly what Jesus Christ said. The simplicity
is where we want to stay. We do not want to complicate the instruction
of God's Word with our experiences and methods or steps in healing.
It says here that they shall speak in tongues.
So, we did not meditate many years or pray much to be able to speak
in tongues. But we just opened our mouth and began to speak and
there was the power.
God says that when you lay hands on the sick,
they shall recover. God wants us to have this absolute attitude
and confidence that when we minister healing, or when we speak to
the devils or when we speak to the sickness, one who being ministered
shall recover.
We must get God's people to immediately exercise
this God-given ability and authority right away not after taking
the Advanced class or after completing certain classes.
It has to be a norm that when you lay hands on
the sick they shall recover and if they did not, it should be very
unusual. Just like many Samaritans not speaking in tongue immediately
after believing and being saved when Philip preached the Word there.
This was very unusual, exception, etc. "They shall speak with
new tongues" is normal. "The shall recover" is normal.
We will look at another scripture.
Matthew 10:1, 7, 8
And when he had called unto him his twelve disciples, he gave
them power [authority] against unclean spirits, to cast [throw]
them out, and to heal all manner of sickness and all manner of
disease.
7 And as ye go, preach [we got to tell people
that they shall absolutely be delivered and other good new], saying,
The Kingdom of heaven is at hand.
8 Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the
dead, cast out devils: freely ye have received, freely give.
The disciples received the authority and certainly
we have after the day of Pentecost much more authority which definitely
include the above.
Why then not happening? We miss the simplicity.
The Word of God exactly says what it says and what it means. We
just do it with faith and it shall happen.
It does not require so much education on this.
How did we speak in tongues? We just began to speak and the power
was there for us indeed to speak in unknown language.
To illustrate the simplicity of the Truth, I have
a few incidents to share with you.
1. A 3 year old son, I forgot his name, of a believer
here in Delhi heard her grand mother saying that she had severe
head ache. So, he spoke to her head ache to go away. His father
said he continued to command this way for perhaps 15 minutes until
her head ache had left her. His son then stopped speaking to the
head ache.
2. A 4 year old son, Monty, of another believer who lives with her
aunt heard her say that she had very much body ache that she could
not even stand up. So, he prayed for her and after his prayer, he
said to her that her pain was gone so stand up and do what she needed
to do. When she stood up, her body pain was truly gone.
These little children have the same authority
and power in Christ, they neither attended the advanced class but
as they heard and saw that they could do this work, they proceeded
to do so. They knew from seeing their parents that when they pray
or minister healing, the one who being ministered shall be healed
or when they spoke to the pain to go, it should obey them.
3. My 7 years daughter, Nozomi, was attending
her swimming class and after some days she got ear infection. She
had very much pain and was crying. So, I sat by her and prayed to
God; this was to just get my self to have absolute confidence that
when I speak to her ear infection, it must go. I made up my mind
that it has to go and I spoke to it and immediately her pain had
disappeared.
4. Another incident I want to mention was about
my eldest daughter, Preet, 15 years old. She, about a week ago,
got a painful mouth ulcer. She came and told me that it was very
painful and she could hardly eat food. So, I told her that God is
very big and that she should talk to Him first about it and then
she should speak to this mouth ulcer to go away.
Later that night she came back and told me that
she did what I said and after speaking to God, she ordered the mouth
ulcer to go and she told me that after 5 minutes or so, it was gone.
5. There are believers both of whose name is Ram
Chander. They have been healing and casting out devils a lot and
people came to know that. One day a person they knew asked them
to come and heal his son who is 7 years old or so who has never
moved of himself since his birth. They spoke the Word for a while
that the True God delivers and later they prayed for the child.
Later that day the child lifted his body and sat
up by himself and all were amazed and praised the True God. The
parents are now confident of their son's total deliverance.
I teach God's people here, some are old and many
of them are new, to preach or proclaim to people who are in need,
that the True God shall deliver them. To those who are sick that
they shall 1000% be healed and if they desire to be healed then
heal them. If devils are to be cast out then cast them out. Then
they just do it. To many of them I have not yet given classes on
the Word of knowledge, Word of wisdom and discerning of spirits,
etc. But I teach much about our power and authority in Christ and
about God's Power and His ability; that He is our Father and whatsoever
we request to Him, He absolutely bring it to pass. However, they
sure cast devils right out of people and heal the sick or heal themselves
also.
I know that these simple keys and the simplicity
of the Truth shall enable us to live the more abundant life and
cause the Word over the World.
With much love to you.
In Christ,
Sangat
