Category: Signs and Wonders

Mark 16:17 (NKJV) 17 And these signs will follow those who believe: In My name they will cast out demons; they will speak with new tongues;

If there’s one thing that has become abundantly clear to me over the years about Jesus, it’s this; His life impacted the world like no other before or after Him.

This is to be expected, since He was God sent to earth in human form.

But another thing that has become increasingly clear to me as a Christian (follower (imitator) of Christ) is this; as His followers, we should also expect to impact the lives of those we encounter in a way that draws people to God and grows the Kingdom of God.

If we aren’t, then we may need to ask God how to fix that in us.

You see, Jesus Himself said that signs would follow those who believe.

Are we seeing signs? Do we make demons afraid, or are we afraid of demons?

Good question, isn’t it?

Do we experience signs and wonders?

How do our lives impact those we come into contact with? What will people remember about us over the years?

This isn’t to say that we all need to become “preachers” or start running around trying to cast demons out of everyone we see.

It does mean, though, that we need to let God use us for His purposes, following His leading so He can make Himself visible to people, and so He can be glorified in the earth through our lives.

That can’t happen if we are timid and afraid of people. It can’t happen if we pull back when God tells us to step out or speak out. It can’t happen if we fail to see the importance of this in our lives and actually take action to walk it out.

For some reason, the body of Christ has become very timid and complacent, especially over the last few centuries, blending into society, instead of shaping it and spearheading God’s presence in it.

Let’s ponder on this. Let’s ask God to show us where we may have dropped the ball and simply faded into society instead of shaping it.

I know He will be faithful to show us. We just need to be sincere in the asking and the expecting, and then in the obedience. Amen
