Why do
we have trouble? Because we have not seen a miracle.
In
order to see a miracle, you need to perform an act of faith. See the acts of
faith which the disciples performed. Either they laid their hands on the sick,
or they lifted up the sick person on faith, and then the miracle happened.
Get in
the Spirit by reading out loud the following Scriptures. Repeat the underlined
portions twice, and the bold portions a third time. The Lord will show you a
key to unlock a miracle. This may be specific words you need to repeat, and an
act of faith. An act of faith could be something which you do with your hands,
or body, or something you do with certain objects. Paul
used handkerchiefs.
We must
command the sickness or rebuke the trouble and it will go. Focus on the act of
faith and then do it.

Miracles
are the foundation of the gospel. Many people say they don’t need to have a
miracle, or that God no longer does miracles. Do they know that God is a
supernatural God? Are they saying God is not God? Miracles are his glory. Many
will say, God works naturally, and that God heals the heart, and on and on. Why
remove the manifestation and say that God heals only what we cannot see or
feel? That is not what the Scripture says. In Bible days the people SAW with
their own eyes and experienced the wonderful works of God. Some people say
Jesus came to give inner healing. That is ok. Still there is an incredible
CHARGE on the inside! What happens I cannot tell, but when you are born again
you feel completely changed. Some insist that God works naturally. Stop making
excuses. GOD ONLY WORKS SUPERNATURALLY! This is the only way he acts upon us!
He is Eternal! What do they mean? Do they not believe that God works? Do they
not want a miracle? Do they insist that God heals the inner soul, even though
he does not heal the outside, and we are surrounded with troubles? This is
satan. It is a lie of the devil. When God moves, there is always a
manifestation. Jesus’ success in a town was measured by how many miracles he
did. Look at Mark 6:5 And he could there do no mighty work, save that he
laid his hands upon a few sick folk, and healed them.
Many
people will be angry at me for what I have just said. This is to be expected,
since it is the very thing binding you where you are. To confirm it, I have
listed all the Scriptures which prove that while he preached, Jesus did
miracles! Paul also! How many dead preachers are there today, who say that God
no longer does miracles? Do some people say, I prefer Stephen, he was a
faithful martyr completely powerless as a lamb. Look again folks, even Stephen
was accredited by the many miracles he did. God = miracles. There is no other
substitute to this equation.
I was
shocked when I studied the Bible closely and I saw that ALL of what Jesus did
was miracles! I saw that salvation and healing of the body went hand in hand in
the Bible, absolutely! Healing and Righteousness – shocking! Especially read
Luke 5:24,25 and Hebrews 9:27,28 and James 5:16 and 1 Peter 2:24. Why didn’t
they tell us all this in theological seminary? Is the seminary really based on
the Bible? You don’t see salvation without healing. Look up the Scriptures! I
will prove it. This is truly shocking for a non-believer in miracles. One Scripture
says that Jesus did “so many miracles”. Others around him which did not even
belong to his “team” also caught on, and Jesus’ disciples attempted to forbid
them from casting out devils in Jesus’ name! That was the core of Jesus’
ministry, and his followers. Get back to the Bible! Have a look at the real
Jesus! Do you say, “Jesus can do anything, and I agree that he is the healer”
are you separating Jesus from us, as though we cannot heal too? Didn’t Jesus
require the Holy Spirit to heal the sick? The same Holy Spirit that comes to
us? Do you say, “I have never heard that before” Well, why did he only do
miracles once the Holy Spirit came on him? Or do you say, Jesus is God, he can
do anything. Yes, but that smells a bit like an antichrist spirit – Jesus
Christ DID come in the flesh! He is just like you and me!
MOREOVER,
isn’t Jesus Christ still here now? Didn’t he rise from the dead, and
miraculously appear and disappear? Didn’t he say, Lo, I am with you alway, on
his way up to heaven? Even unto the end of the world? Therefore, will he not
heal now? Will he not do a miracle in our midst - again? Could he now stop
doing “so many miracles” today? God is love. He says that he never changes,
when we need him more that ever - WILL HE EVER CHANGE HIS METHOD OF MINISTRY?
Never.
I was so
shocked and many other people with dead religion will be shocked because they
presently see Jesus as someone who moves along, softly, with a few soft
teachings as shown in the movies. The world wants
Christ without power. NO! Acts 1:3 says “To whom also he showed himself alive
after his passion by many infallible proofs, being seen of them forty days, and
speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God:” What do you think he
means by INFALLIBLE PROOFS? This was an outside visible proof in line with the
“many miracles” which Jesus did before his death and resurrection, as he
appeared and disappeared in his resurrected body. Obviously, the movies missed
out that bit on purpose to please the world. Let me tell you the movies do not show
the real Christ, and many artists and authors and so called
“bible scholars” who paint the follower of Jesus as a powerless individual have
got the wrong person.
If
miracles are not happening it is not of God. Don’t waste your time, week after
week in a cemetery listening to a corpse. Do we follow a theological seminary
or the Bible? Nowhere in the Bible are miracles removed. Everyone God used in
the Bible worked miracles or experienced miracles. I am not saying that
troubles will not come, but I am saying that troubles will not stay when
miracles come our way. If you do not experience miracles, then it is time to do
some soul-searching.
Kindly
allow me to blow apart your false theology of Jesus Christ as I expand the
Scriptures in my new manual HOW TO SEE A MIRACLE. Visit the webpage today www.CharlesFinney.com

THE LAST TRUMP – HOW TO RAISE THE DEAD
Matthew
9:18 While he spake these things unto them, behold, there came a certain ruler,
and worshipped him, saying, My daughter is even now dead: but
come and lay thy hand upon her, and she shall live.
Matthew
27:52 And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints
which slept arose, 53 And came out of the graves after
his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many.
Mark
12:27 He is not the God of the dead, but the God of the living: ye
therefore do greatly err.
John
4:50 Jesus saith unto him, Go thy way; thy son liveth. And the
man believed the word that Jesus had spoken unto him, and he went his way.
John
4:51 And as he was now going down, his servants met him, and told him, saying, Thy
son liveth.
John
4:53 So the father knew that it was at the same hour, in the which Jesus said
unto him, Thy son liveth: and himself believed, and his
whole house.
John
5:28 Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which all that
are in the graves shall hear his voice, 29 And shall come forth;
they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have
done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation.
John
6:50 This is the bread which cometh down from heaven, that a man may
eat thereof, and not die.
John
6:51 I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if
any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever: and the bread
that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life
of the world.
John
6:58 This is that bread which came down from heaven: not as your
fathers did eat manna, and are dead: he that eateth of this bread
shall live for ever.
John
11:25 Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life:
he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live:
John
11:26 And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die.
Believest thou this?
1
Corinthians 15:51 Behold, I show you a mystery; We shall not all sleep,
but we shall all be changed, 52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye,
at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall
be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
PROPHET’S
COMMENT: Something
marvellous happened during the times of the Apostle Paul. Paul talks about the
church being translated. The church was changed and transformed as said in 1
Corinthians 15:51 above. Paul is talking about them. He said “we shall not
all sleep”. We know the prophecy of Joel was fulfilled when the Holy Ghost
came "The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood,
before that great and notable day of the Lord come:"
PROPHET’S
COMMENT:
Some of the church was alive at the time
when this marvellous event happened. They were taken with Jesus. This last
trump does not mean the time when the world gets destroyed. Many people are
waiting for the last trump. But, does this mean there was no trump for those
Paul was talking to? When he says “we shall all be changed” who was he
talking to? Did he say “we shall all be raised”? NO he did not. So, there were
some people who were translated at the time of the Apostle Paul and at the time
of Jesus when he said “This generation shall not pass, till all these things
be fulfilled”. The Last Trump is when the last enemy is destroyed, that is,
whenever people are transformed so that they never die again.
1
Corinthians 15:26 The last enemy that shall be destroyed is
death.
PROPHET’S
COMMENT: The good
news is that the promise of Paul “we shall not all sleep” also applies
to us! Yes it does! Some of us will never die! And those who are dead will be
raised. Why did Jesus command us to “raise the dead”?
Matthew
10:8 Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out
devils: freely ye have received, freely give.
PROPHET’S
COMMENT: When
people are freed from the devil’s power, when they cast out devils which
are eternal spirits that cannot die (send us into the swine), the people are
raised from the dead!
PROPHET’S
COMMENT: So that
they could die again? No way! Let us preach the gospel! This is the gospel! Let
us not say to people, “do you know where you are going when you die?”
How will Jesus be glorified in that? It is not necessary that all die, as
testified
Hebrews
9:27 And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:
28 So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that
look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation.
PROPHET’S
COMMENT: Does it say
“shall he RAISE FROM THE DEAD”? NO! it says “shall he APPEAR ... UNTO
SALVATION” Some of them WILL NOT BE DEAD. Although by the Scripture “it is
appointed unto men once to die”, verse 28 shows that CHRIST REVERSED THIS
APPOINTMENT UNTO SALVATION it is not necessary to die, for Jesus is not
glorified when someone dies!
John
11:4 When Jesus heard that, he said, This sickness is not unto death, but
for the glory of God, that the Son of God might be glorified
thereby.
PROPHET’S
COMMENT: Remember
what the Trump means! The trump is when those in the body are changed so that
if dead, they live, and if alive, they will never die, but will always be with
the Lord forever and will never return to this world. The question is, do you
want to stay for a while, or go? DEATH IS NOT THE ONLY WAY TO HEAVEN! But, if
you stay here, you can testify of the living God to the dead! You can raise
the dead!
1
Thessalonians 4:16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout,
with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the
dead in Christ shall rise first: 17 Then we which are alive
and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet
the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
PROPHET’S
COMMENT: Blow the
trump of God! Let me repeat, Paul here is talking in the present tense “we
which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds”.
Not all of the church at the time of Paul is in the grave. Some of them got
caught up in the cloud as Paul promised. Jesus Christ further proves that this
happened during the times of the Apostle Paul because he said that this
generation would not pass away until these things of the end should be
fulfilled.
Matthew
24:31 And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and
they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from
one end of heaven to the other.
Matthew
24:34 Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all
these things be fulfilled.
PROPHET’S
COMMENT: The end I
am talking of is not the times that we live in today or in the next few years.
That generation is not still waiting for us, because that generation Jesus was
speaking to has passed, and “these things of the end” are fulfilled. The
good news is they are being fulfilled in our generation too! Jesus here is
referring to something marvellous that Matthew witnesses
Matthew
27:52 And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the
saints which slept arose,
Matthew
27:53 And came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into
the holy city, and appeared unto many.
PROPHET’S
COMMENT: Yes,
believe it, Jesus has already come for some of his own. But the good news is
that he comes again in our lives to do the same thing, and swallows up death in
victory. Anyone who is dead will live! and as Jesus says, anyone who is alive
will never die!
