...he shall
see his seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of the Lord shall
prosper in his hand (Isaiah 53:10).
The Lord
Jesus did many mighty works when He walked the earth. The Bible says if all the
miracles He performed were to be chronicled, the whole world wouldn’t contain
the books that’d be written. That’s neither a hyperbole nor over amplification
of facts; it’s the truth. His entire life was an unending stream of the
supernatural. He brought hope, joy, and life to many. The Bible says He went
about doing good, healing ALL that were oppressed of the devil, for God was
with Him (Acts 10:38).
Now, this
same Jesus, although is in heaven today, the Bible says He’s the same
yesterday, today, and forever (Hebrews 13:8). He’s still loving, gracious,
merciful, compassionate, and works miracles today as He did in Bible days. He
still lifts, blesses, and transforms lives today, howbeit, through us—His seed.
We’re the ones prolonging His days. We stand in His stead today; we bear His
glory and divine presence. He’s committed to us everything He “...began both to
do and teach” (Acts 1:1), that we may carry on in His stead.
He gave us
the Holy Spirit, and we can minister His graces, wisdom, salvation,
righteousness, love, healing, wholeness and beauty to a hurting, broken, lost,
and disgruntled world. When we come before a rendezvous of broken humanity—the
sick, the downtrodden, the poor, the rejected, the neglected, and the
fainthearted—Jesus shows up in us and there’s a total turnaround for them. He’s
the solution that the world is looking for, and we minister Him; we’re
partakers of His divine nature, as well as dispensers of His love.
If only the
world could see and understand that you carry God’s divine presence, and relate
to you accordingly, they’d get heaven’s best. Jesus didn’t leave us hamstrung;
He gave us everything we require to affect our world. He’s as present through
you in your world today, as He was in Galilee, Capernaum ,
and Jerusalem
PRAYER: Dear
Father, I thank you for the privilege and blessing of being a partaker, as well
as the conveyor of your divine presence. I influence and transform my world with
your glory today, ministering life and divine blessings to the hearts of men,
through the power of the Holy Spirit, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

STUDY: 2 Corinthians 5:19-20 - For God was in Christ, reconciling the world to
himself, no longer counting people’s sins against them. And he gave us this
wonderful message of reconciliation. 20 So we are Christ’s
ambassadors; God is making his appeal through us. We speak for Christ when we
plead, “Come back to God!”
Mark
16:19-20 - When the Lord Jesus had finished talking with them, he was taken up
into heaven and sat down in the place of honor at God’s right hand. 20 And
the disciples went everywhere and preached, and the Lord worked through them,
confirming what they said by many miraculous signs.
