Beloved consider that Jesus Christ once lived as a human being with known human parents but He placed His faith in God and constantly affirmed His divine identity. Jesus Christ openly declared that He was the Son of God no matter what.
He said things about His relationship with God (who He always referred to as His Father) that shocked his listeners. Read here: Matthew 11:27
(NLT) “My Father has entrusted everything to me. No one truly knows the Son except the Father, and no one truly knows the Father except the Son and those to whom the Son chooses to reveal him.”
You might know the name of Jesus but that does not mean He has been revealed to you. He is still a mystery to many. Some will even die without truly knowing who he is. Unless the Father reveals him to them in this lifetime.
The miracles Jesus Christ performed were based on His relationship and deep knowledge of the Father. He openly told people that he could do nothing on His own but it was the Father working through Him.
Check John 5:19 (NLT) So Jesus explained, “I tell you the truth, the Son can do nothing by himself. He does only what he sees the Father doing. Whatever the Father does, the Son also does.”
If I ask any of us here to pray for sick person, cast out a demon or even
intercede for someone who needs a prayer (let alone perform a miracle) many will panic and showcase low self esteem. They will make it all about their shortcomings, lack of faith or doubt in God’s abilities. Jesus Christ however had a deep conviction that the Father would always show up and cause miracles to happen.
Do you remember what He said about raising the dead? Read here: John 5:21 (GNB) ” Just as the Father raises the dead and gives them life, in the same way the Son gives life to those he wants to.” Jesus Christ raised so many people from the dead on this very belief. The Living Father is also our Father, do we see ourselves having this much faith in Him?
Jesus performed miracles and preached the word with such great conviction, those
who heard and saw Him also believed that He was the Son of God. Read here: Matthew 14:33 (NKJV) “Then those who were in the boat came and worshiped Him, saying, “Truly You are the Son of God.”
I ask you today if your faith in the Father is now causing those around you to also make similar declarations about you? Are they seeing that you are truly the son of God? Jesus’ whole ministry until his crucifixion worked to prove that he was indeed the son of God check Mark 3:11, Luke 4:41 and Matthew 8:29.
No matter what you face in your life, this is also the deep conviction you need to hold on to. You are a child of God. The Creator of the whole universe is your Father. Pause! Think about that for a
second! If you truly believe this as mightily as Jesus Christ did, then we need to see you making a change all around you and conquering territories for the kingdom of God.
