John 5:19
Jesus gave them this answer: “I tell you the truth, the Son can do nothing by himself; he can only do what he sees his Father doing, because whatever the Father does the Son also does”.
Ps Bill Johnson from Bethel Church was at PCLC for the Miraculous conference earlier this month. One of the things, he explained so well was Jesus’ absolute dependence on the Father. As fully man, Jesus trusted completely on the indwelling of the Holy Spirit enabling Him to see what the Father was doing. And what great things He did!
In the same way, Jesus prophesied that you and I would do greater things (John 14:12).
You may be thinking, This must comes at a huge cost. The next verse shows us how it was and still is done – For the Father loves the Son and shows him all he does. The Father loves us and shows us!
The two states of man’s life are contrasted by Christ. Without the Father, I have nothing. With the Father, I have everything.
We don’t strive for the miraculous and prophetic to be these ‘super-Christians’. But know this, deepen your relationship with your good Father and you will see what He is showing His children. He will show you what He is doing in your life.
We do not do because we have not seen. And it’s not because the Father keeps it carefully hidden. So often, it’s because we don’t look at Him.
He loves you and is showing you right now. Go closer and see what He’s doing.
Prayer for this week: Father, all I have is you. I want to see the light of your face. Let me see what you are doing in my life so that I may do the same. I decree the blessing of You on my life; literally You - the amazing blessing of relationship with You.
