COMMANDING YOUR MIRACLE

Memorise:
His mother said unto the servants, Whatsoever He saith unto you, do it. .. John 2:5

Read:
John 2:1-12

Message

Today's Bible reading tells us the story of the wedding in Cana of Galilee. When wine finished at the wedding, Mary informed Jesus about it, expecting Him to provide a solution. However, Jesus replied that His time had not yet come. Mary must have smiled and said to herself, "Son, your time will come tonight." She told the men confidently, "Do whatever He asks you to do," and before the end of the day, 'not yet' became 'now'.

You can also command a miracle from God. You can pray in such a way that you will know that God has heard and your miracle is on the way. Jabez was a man who prayed such a prayer. For many years, he was labelled as a cause of pain and sorrow until he said, "Enough is enough." He called on God to turn his situation around, and He granted his request.

    And Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, Oh that thou wouldest bless me indeed, and enlarge my coast, and that thine hand might be with me, and that thou wouldest keep me from evil, that it may not grieve me! And God granted him that which he requested.    ...1 Chronicles 4:10

We don't know how long Jabez prayed for, but we know the result of his prayer: God turned his story around. In the name above every other name, whatever you have long waited for will come speedily.

To command your miracle, you must know how to engage In fervent prayers and be persistent with them. James said that the effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man avails Much (James 5:16). During a Holy Ghost Service at Redemption City, I waved my hands as I stood on the altar, and miracles started happening. It is possible for some pastors who saw that happen to wonder, "Why can't I also Wave and have miracles happen? I serve the same God this man serves; I also pray and fast regularly." However, they Tay not know that before that day, I had been praying that Miracles should happen just at the wave of my hands for about fifteen years. Some of the things people see happening now in RCCG are the result of my persistence with Godin the place of prayers.

Beloved, don't be tired of waiting on God. Command your miracles by remaining persistent in the place of prayer. As You pray, take heed to the Holy Spirit's instructions. Obey them, and you will receive your miracle before long.

Pass Me Not, O Gentle Saviour

Prayer Point:
Father, please help me to remain persistent in the place of prayer, in Jesus' name.

King James Version

John 2:1-12

And the third day there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee; and the mother of Jesus was there: [2] And both Jesus was called, and his disciples, to the marriage. [3] And when they wanted wine, the mother of Jesus saith unto him, They have no wine. [4] Jesus saith unto her, Woman, what have I to do with thee? mine hour is not yet come. [5] His mother saith unto the servants, Whatsoever he saith unto you, do it. [6] And there were set there six waterpots of stone, after the manner of the purifying of the Jews, containing two or three firkins apiece. [7] Jesus saith unto them, Fill the waterpots with water. And they filled them up to the brim. [8] And he saith unto them, Draw out now, and bear unto the governor of the feast. And they bare it. [9] When the ruler of the feast had tasted the water that was made wine, and knew not whence it was: (but the servants which drew the water knew;) the governor of the feast called the bridegroom, [10] And saith unto him, Every man at the beginning doth set forth good wine; and when men have well drunk, then that which is worse: but thou hast kept the good wine until now. [11] This beginning of miracles did Jesus in Cana of Galilee, and manifested forth his glory; and his disciples believed on him. [12] After this he went down to Capernaum, he, and his mother, and his brethren, and his disciples: and they continued there not many days.
RCCG Hymn

Pass me not, O gentle Saviour

  1. Pass me not, O gentle Saviour,
    Hear my humble cry;
    While on others Thou art calling,
    Do not pass me by.

  2. Saviour, Saviour,
    Hear my humble cry;
    While on others Thou art calling.
    Do not pass me by.


  3. Let me, at Thy throne of mercy
    Find a sweet relief;
    Kneeling there in deep contrition,
    Help my unbelief
  4. Trusting only in Thy merit
    Would I seek Thy face
    Heal my wounded, broken spirit.
    Save me by Thy grace.
  5. Thou, the spring of all my comfort.
    More than life to me.
    Whom have I on earth beside Thee?
    Whom in heaven but Thee?
