I am reading
the memoirs of John G Lake at the moment. I am becoming consumed with his life,
as he decided early in his ministry that the life of the Christian was to be
lived as Jesus was living in us and through us. He has recorded many of his
experiences which are blowing my mind because I have always felt that we, as
Christians, should experience supernatural events and walk in signs and
wonders. Praying in the spirit and leaving his body, going to the direct places
of where the sick were that he was praying for is just one example. Traveling
in the spirit. Out of body travel. These
are strange things to the natural mind. Watching body parts healed right in
front of our eyes would be amazing! Seeing people who have been crazy all their
life suddenly delivered through the power of God flowing through us in the name
of Jesus would elevate our souls and bring hope to dying communities!
Why should the satanists and eastern mystics
and new agers take what is ours and try and own it? Should we not, as
Christians, believe that nothing is impossible? What does that mean? Is it just
a phrase to us now? How is it that witch doctors can lay their hands on the
sick, and have them recover? When did Jesus say that there would be a time when
the power of God would cease to flow through the beings of his disciples? How
is it that Phillip can travel in the spirit? How is it that Jesus can say that
he saw Phillip sitting under a tree one day, before He ever “knew” him?
These are
good and healthy questions I am asking and I am believing that God is going to
answer!
