MIRACLES AND LOVE. (A Sunday message transcript)

Text: Matthew 5:44-48

Miracles from God are evidence and proof of God's love towards us.
The whole of creation was put together as we read in Genesis 1:1-27 by God's miracle touch.
God's miracle touch at creation was His Word and Spirit.
God's Word has miracle power and it creates for man's benefit.
Walking in love is an act of perfection, it attracts God.
Love is the reason God will give you a miracle.
Anyone you truly love you can do anything for, and we know God loves humanity because God's Word tells us in the popular Bible passage- John 3:16 that God so loved the world that He gave is only begotten son, the Lord Jesus Christ so that the world won't perish.
Jesus Christ is the greatest miracle of all time and God gave Him up for you and I, in the process putting value on humanity. This singular act and decision is a miracle in itself.
God's love to man is a miracle!

Our Lord Jesus is the greatest demonstration of God's love and God's miracle kindness to man.

While Jesus was on earth in human form:-
He didn't have great financial investments, He didn't come from a rich or noble family, He never penned a book, He didn't have or move in the circle of influential people, He never owned his own physical house, He was buried in a borrowed tomb, He wasn't formally educated and never formed an army or lead a battalion of skilled warriors, unlike King David and Samson he never killed or wrestled wild animals or fight off giants and nephilims, yet today He remains the center piece of all history, more than 20 centuries has passed, still He remains the most powerful force known to mankind.
No king, general, empire, kingdom or being has affected the world like Jesus
Jesus Christ is the most influential entity that ever walked this earth!
That description shows the quality of being God sacrificed to bring us into His family.
Through Jesus you have been made a walking miracle on the face of the earth.
The love of God through Christ brings you into God's Spirit realm and God's Spirit Kingdom.
 John 3:8, Colossians 1:3 The Spirit Kingdom or realm of God is the realm of the miraculous.
It is realm of power, the power from that realm is called the power of the age to come. Hebrew 6:5
The Lord we follow is a miraculous being.
Man was originally created with a touch of the miraculous. We see this with the first man called the first Adam.
The second Adam came to restore what the first Adam lost. Jesus is the last Adam. Romans 5:15-19
Jesus came to reconcile the world back to God.
Jesus came to restore men back to good relationship with the Father.
Jesus brought back glory and the miraculous to humanity.
Miracles and glory are closely related. John 2:11
The first Adam was clothed with the glory of God; the last Adam raises us up back into glory.
The Word glory is from the greek Word 'cabod'.
Cabod means full weight.
So when God puts His glory on a life, He is putting is full weight of the miraculous, blessing, dominion, power, kindness, love and tender mercies on that life.
This is the glory that was on the first Adam which Jesus is raising us back into.
This glory is a demonstration of God's love to us.
The last Adam was a greater miracle than the first Adam. Jesus was more glorious than Adam the first man.
JESUS IS MORE THAN THE 1ST ADAM because;
- It is easier to accept  that God formed a man from dust and brought him to life by His breath than to accept that a virgin got pregnant without a man.
- Adam was created and put in a perfect garden, but Jesus was born into an imperfect world and under imperfect circumstances and he remained perfect all His life.
- Adam eventually sinned, Jesus never sinned
- Adam brought sin and death on humanity as a result of his action; Jesus brought life and hope to humanity as a result of His sacrifice.
- Adam lost it, Jesus restored it. Amen!

Jesus was sent into the world as a miracle. As Jesus was sent, so are we.

Your Father Hears

Matthew 6:5,6 Prayer should be directed to the Father. Jesus showed this when He taught His disciples the Lord's prayer. It should be a great comfort to you to know that the creator and God of all hears you when you pray. This should encourage you to pray and keep praying. In our day to day relationships with people our communication will reduce towards those who don't pay attention when we're talking to them. The good thing about God is that He is never distracted. Know you have His attention when you pray . He can be communicated with. He hears, He created the ears. Psalm 94:9 Jesus encouraged prayer. Matthew 26:40 Jesus taught prayer. Luke 11:1,2 If Jesus prayed, you will need to pray. Why Should You Pray? *Pray because prayer brings God's intervention. Isaiah 38:5,6 *Pray because that's how you are authorized to communicate with God. 1 Thessalonians 15:16-18 *Pray because it is a major way of birthing God's will on earth. 1 Kings 18...

Out Of The Ashes

Isaiah 61:3 Ashes are not seen as useful substances. Ashes are waste that's thrown away. Ashes are what is left after a substance is burnt out. Your life may seem like ashes right now but something good and beautiful can come out of it when it's given to God. You may feel like an ash yourself. You may be feeling burnt out from unpleasant experiences of the past, the previous week, the last Month , or the the last year and life's battles may have left you burnt out. Know that out of your ashes can come beauty! God is the one who gives us beauty for ashes. God can make you and your life beautiful! Don't make the ashes your permanent state. God can make your season of ashes work out into a season of glory for you. Romans 8:28 The phoenix is a mystical and fictional bird that burns out after living for about six centuries. After burning itself out it rises from it's ashes renewed, youthful and revitalized to live through another life cycle. Like the p...

Healing For Your Soul Wounds!

Malachi 4:2 Your soul is a vital part of your life. Your soul is part of who you are. Your soul needs to function well for things to go well with you. Your prosperity is linked to your soul. 3 John 2 Your soul is the decision making center of your life. God cares about the state of your soul. God created your soul and wants your soul to function well. It is the will of God that your soul is preserved until the coming back of Jesus Christ. 1 Thessalonians 5:23 Your soul is made up of your will, your mind and your emotions. You need your will, your mind and your emotions to function properly and to be regarded as a well balanced human being. Your soul is valuable and the enemy wants it. Your soul is part of the reason you are saved and a part of God's kingdom. 2 Corinthians 4:3,4 We are spirits who have a soul and live in a body. When your soul is wounded As our natural bodies can be affected, so can our souls. As we can have physical wounds and sores caused b...
