TEXT ACTS 5:15-16
CLASSIC
TOPIC : THE AUTHENTIC CHRISTIAN.
[15]Insomuch that they brought forth the sick into the streets, and laid them on beds and couches, that at the least the shadow of Peter passing by might overshadow some of them.
[16]There came also a multitude out of the cities round about unto Jerusalem, bringing sick folks, and them which were vexed with unclean spirits: and they were healed every one.
Beloved, peter's shadow was healing the sick and restoring those who were demon possessed.
This was the same peter who was so afraid of being caught with Jesus.
The same peter who denied Him three times within a few hours.
Who brought the radical change ?
In Acts 1:4-5, Jesus commanded them,
"And, being assembled together with them, commanded them that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which, saith he, ye have heard of me.
For John truly baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost not many days hence."
In Acts 2:1-4, this promise was fulfilled.
"And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place.
And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting.
And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them.
And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance."
At the fulfillment of this promise, power was released from the throne of God.
From that moment, it lbecame possible for a man to carry upon himself the dimension of power that operates in the trinity.
Many carry such power within without even realizing it so they continue to face defeats everyday.
Some have even destroyed by the arrows of witches and wizards.
God forbid, my Lord decreed that no arrow that is formed against me shall prosper.
I believe and declare it loud and clear , " I am a deliverer that is sent to this generation".
God bless you.
With the God I serve, nothing shall be impossible.
Your case is not bigger than God.
May you have a God filled day in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
Your Victory is already guaranteed
It is well, do not give up, with God all things are possible
