YOUR EXPECTATIONS WILL EITHER CREATE A MIRACLE OR STOP IT.

YOUR EXPECTATIONS WILL EITHER CREATE A MIRACLE OR STOP IT. I can almost hear some of you saying: “It is not up to me to create a miracle.” That’s true. We cannot produce a miracle. I usually say that I can’t heal anybody, not even a fly. I would rather kill a lot of different insects. In India they might believe that you return in the next life as an insect or an animal and I turn around and look before I kill an insect saying:” I am not killing your grandmother.” In the ...

WHAT KIND OF RELATIONSHIP DO YOU HAVE TO YOUR DADDY?

WHAT KIND OF RELATIONSHIP DO YOU HAVE TO YOUR DADDY? Jesus had a close relationship to His Daddy. He often chose to go aside to be with Him. Jesus actually said that He only did what the Father told Him to do. (John5:19) In order to hear, one needs to be close. The Holy Spirit is the third part of the Deity and He is the One conveying the Father’s will to us. I often say that I only want to do what The Holy Spirit tells me to say or do. When I preach or teach, I lean on The Holy Spirit ... (read more)

BE HONEST AND DIRECT.

BE HONEST AND DIRECT. Some of you might say: “I do not lie, so everything must be ok then?” I believe that lying is so much more than we think about and the “bag of lies” contains so much more than we naturally see. Jesus calls Himself for the Truth. In addition to that, He was very direct. He called a spade for a spade and those who were religious didn’t like Him. He was so direct that He called sins for sins and He revealed the secret things in their hearts. Most of us want ... (read more)

THE RESURRECTION POWER LIVES IN US BELIEVERS.

THE RESURRECTION POWER LIVES IN US BELIEVERS. I do not seem to finish the message about Easter. On Easter morning I was praying and The Holy Spirit came and made the resurrection message alive. It went from being head knowledge down to the heart. Jesus had prophesied for the disciples that He should rise on the third day, but they didn’t really understand what he was talking about. On the first day of the week after the Sabbath some women came to the tomb. They had watched the tomb of ... (read more)

THE OLD RUGGED CROSS.

THE OLD RUGGED CROSS! I assume that you know which cross I talk about. I talk about the cross Jesus was hanging and suffering on. Many, too many people have been tortured through history, but most people have been tortured against their will, but Jesus did it because He loved us dearly. He was willing to be punished for something He didn’t do and He bore the punishment that we deserved. We might find a father being willing to die to save his wife and children, but Jesus became the ... (read more)

WHO AND WHAT DOES OTHERS SEE IN ME? Part 2

WHO AND WHAT DOES OTHERS SEE IN ME? Part 2 I had a friend calling me yesterday. She was so excited and shocked. She had been with the Lord and shared Him in different places. When she was on her way home, she was happy and felt light. What shocked her was that a woman came running up to her and grabbed her and told her how much energy that came out of her. This other woman was a stranger to my friend, but she said that she had observed her before. This happened without saying a word. My friend ... (read more)

WHO AND WHAT DOES OTHERS SEE IN ME?

WHO AND WHAT DOES OTHERS SEE IN ME? Part 1 I have become very conscious about the fact that Jesus lives in me. He moved in the day that I received Him as my Lord and Savior. He gave me a totally new nature and I was borne again. I did not receive a new body nor a new soul, but my spirit got renewed and I can truly say that I am righteous and on my way to Heaven because of His blood. The apostle Paul says in two of his letters that we should walk by the Spirit. We should identify with God in us ... (read more)

THANK YOU, DEAR JESUS.

THANK YOU, DEAR JESUS! I am writing so many Christmas letters to family and friends and letters and cards are sent to many countries in the world, but what about you Jesus? I do not think that I ever wrote to you Jesus, but it is high time to do so. I have only good things to thank you for and I must start by asking for forgiveness for the fact that I do not thank you enough. Forgive my ingratitude. Thank You Jesus for allowing me to be born into a family believing in you and in a country where ... (read more)

DO NOT GET BURNT OUT!

DO NOT GET BURNT-OUT! We use this expression when we have done too much and one is totally worn out. We might also say that somebody has hit the wall. This describes a situation when we really can’t do more. It’s enough. Does God want us to hit the wall? No, He has never given us yokes that are so heavy that we hit the wall. “But I have worked for a Christian organization or I have worked for my church”, some of you might say. That doesn’t convince me. You ... (read more)

HOW DO WE REACH THE GOAL?

HOW DO WE REACH THE GOAL? What kind of goal? Many people are living without any specific purpose and may sing a song that is translated like this: “What happens, happens and I can’t say or do something about that. They have surrendered their lives to fate, but what is fate? It certainly isn’t God. They do not take responsibility over their own lives and do not know exactly where they are headed. Others live with a very strict program and there is no opening for ... (read more)
