Chapter 3
Using what you have
So you know that the Lord has called you to serve Him. You know He has anointed you. But you want to know where to start in your ministry and how to see that anointing grow. You may wonder why not everyone who is indwelt by the same Holy Spirit see amazing things happening in their lives.
The points I am going to make in this chapter are so simple that you will wonder why you have been wasting your time up until now. The Bible says in Acts 10:38: …
BOLDNESS
Ephesians 6:19,20 and for me, that
utterance may be given to me, that I may
Open my mouth boldly to make known
the mystery of the gospel
For which I am an ambassador in
chains; that in it I may speak boldly as I ought to speak
Lord, fill us with your Spirit just like you want us to be! (Ephesians 5:18)
Lord, bless us with hunger and thirst for righteousness, and fill us (Matt. 5:6)
Grant us, O God, according to the riches of Your glory, to be strengthened with might through Your Spirit in the inner man, that Christ may dwell in our hearts through faith. (Eph. 3:16-17)
Shows the Scriptural promises and expectations of Christ relating to this ministry and answers the objections Christians have to the idea of training believers to do the ministry of divine healing.
I pray that in nothing I shall be ashamed, but with all boldness, as always, so now also Christ will be magnified in my body, whether be life or by death. (Philippians 1:20)
I pray that I will be a good and faithful servant of Christ, faithful over a few things and one day ruler over many. (Matthew 25:21)
I pray that I will be willing to carry around in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life of Jesus also may be manifested in my mortal flesh (2 Corinthians 4:10). For to me, to live is Christ, and to die is gain.
God has highly exalted Jesus and given Him the name which is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth. As the Father sent Jesus, so Jesus sends me to go and do everything in His name. (Philippians 2:9-10; John 20:22; Colossians 3:17)
All authority has been given to Jesus in heaven and on earth.
I am commanded by God to be continually filled with the Holy Spirit. Eph 5.18
I hunger and thirst for righteousness, and I am filled. Mt 5.6
I believe that God grants me, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might through His Spirit in the inner man, that Christ may actually dwell in my heart through faith. Eph 3.16 3.17
Being rooted and grounded in love I may be able to know the love of Christ which passes knowledge, that I may be filled up to all the fullness of God. Eph 3.18
Even when full I thirst for more of God and I come to Jesus and drink.
Father, I confess all my sins to You [name them]. Thank you that You are faithful and just to forgive me all my sins and to cleanse me from all unrighteousness (1 John 1:9). I choose to forsake these sins by your grace alone.
I thank you Lord Jesus that your blood cleanses my conscience from dead works to serve the living God. (Hebrews 9:14)
I thank you Father that my heart is sprinkled from an evil conscience by the blood of Jesus. (Hebrews 10:22)
Thank You Lord that In You I have redemption through Your blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of Your grace.
The Disciple,—Master, what is the real meaning of service? Is it that we serve the Creator and then His creatures for His sake? Is the help of man, who is after all but a mere worm, of any value to God in caring for His great family, or does God stand in need of the help of man in protecting or preserving any of His creatures?
The Master,—1. Service means the activity of the spiritual life and is the natural offering prompted by love.
