1 | Why Could He Not Do Many Miracles? | Luke 9:42 | srbaegon | 207150 | ||
Hello Imm, Different Steve here. Since faith is proved by its action, we can say the people had faith that Jesus could heal and acted accordingly. However, in no wise would I ever say that the evidenced faith CAUSED the flow. That would place me as sovereign over God--a horrible thought. Steve |

srbaegon, OK, lets work out the wording. If I have a gun that is loaded, my faith that it can kill, will not make it fire, it takes my finger pulling the trigger. The evidenced faith here is my finger pulling the trigger, I then get my desired result. What it comes down to is, God has something for us in his sovereignty, we have to come to Him and ask, before he will give it to us. Heb 4:5 And in this place again, (If they shall enter) into my rest. God has prepared a rest for His people. (ME,) entering into that rest provided for me, does not place me as sovereign over GOD. It is his Gift, all his. How could my accepting a gift prepared for me, from the foundations of the world, place me in a position of sovereignty over him, who has prepared it for me? All Healing, Deliverance, Salvation, and whatever else you can think of, that God has prepared for those that love Him, ALL are sovereign gifts. Only He, as the God of the Universe, the Only Wise God, can provide those gifts. The only stipulation to receiving any of these gifts is, you must go to the giver of the gift, you cannot get it any other way. The flow of the virtue is always present with GOD, our action releases it. For without faith we can do nothing. In Him Imm |

3 | Why Could He Not Do Many Miracles? | Luke 9:42 | CDBJ | 207156 | ||
Greetings, God has a plan for my life and I’ve entered this plan of God’s, called grace, by an undivided trust in His precious unique Son, Jesus the Christ. Since I am a child of God, John 1:12, everything that God does for me comes as a result of His grace: grace is all that God is free to do for me on the basis of the cross. If I suffer ill health it’s for God’s purpose, Romans 8:28 And we know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose. 1 Thes. 5:18 in everything give thanks; for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus. God’s grace is sufficient for all my needs be they joyous or unpleasant sufferings. God is 0mnipresent which means that I don’t have to go to any specific place to receive His grace blessings. Christ made provisions for me to enter the throne room of heaven into the very presence of God when I am in need of help from any location there is and at any time, and on top of that I can have confidence with boldness because of what Jesus accomplished for me on the cross. Hebrews 4:14-16 Since then we have a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession. 15For we do not have a high priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but One who has been tempted in all things as we are, yet without sin. 16Let us therefore draw near with confidence to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and may find grace to help in time of need. Hebrews 4:1 Therefore, let us fear lest, while a promise remains of entering His rest, any one of you should seem to have come short of it. Grace be to you this day, CDBJ |
