The supernatural is meant for the one who is eleven observes a few biblical perspectives about the assured of God's perspectives and timings for His supernatural realms. The possibility of the works. We must be sensitive enough to understand supernatural life is not something that is difficult for a God's ways and discern what to believe and how to child of God. Jesus had selected Judea to resurrect personalize His word in our lives to operate in the Lazarus supernaturally from the dead, although a few supernatural realm. Moreover, there is urgency for us days ago the Jewish leaders sought to kill him in to modify all our innate traditional belief systems to Judea. He once again deliberately went over there to receive God's blessings for your present necessities. perform the power of the kingdom of God. Our Supernatural is entailed for those who perceive it by adverse situations, critical places, things or times are comprehending God through revelation-knowledge. not a hindrance to Jesus. It seems Jesus had selected The Supernatural realm is a requisite for the present Judea just to teach his disciples a lesson. The disciples physical and spiritual challenges. were not happy to go with Jesus to Judea. The people Be Consistent in Faith of Judea hated their master; however, Jesus kept no Jesus carried people in His heart. He had a few close fear or anger in his heart against them. He is a God friends in the city of Bethany at Judea particularly, who does not change like shifting shadows (James Mary, Martha and Lazarus. Jesus selected the house 1.17). God moves beyond all natural restrictions and of Lazarus to operate in the supernatural since He was human limitations to prove His presence via miracles, often welcomed by Lazarus and his siblings. Lazarus's wonders and mighty things. Therefore, it is God's family had constant love and consistent faith in Christ. favor that bestows the possibility of the supernatural If you follow Jesus wholeheartedly, He will make sure for us (Romans 8.28, Psalm 5.12, Psalm 84.11, Act 7.9- of your wellbeing. The supernatural from God is 10, and Proverb 3.1-4; 33-35). meant for all who follow Him consistently in faith. In Appraise your consistency of faith to determine God's today's world many seek God for their immediate interventions for a supernatural life. Let us assert how needs for a time being and lose their hope in God, if T
nothing befalls over a time. Many are not able to see God and not capable to receive His blessings in life since they are not constantly following Him and making Him their abode. Assured of God's Perspectives and Timings It is important to know God's perspectives and timings or seasons to operate in the supernatural. Jesus was seeking God's timing above human determination. Thus, Jesus waited for three more days and sought His Father's will in regard to Lazarus' resurrection. Hence, we read that “he stayed where he was for two more days, and then he said to his disciples, 'Let us go back to Judea'” (John 11.5-7). The disciples were blindly following Christ without much belief about a possibility of a miracle. Check yourself what is prompting you to follow Jesus Christ; if it is a firm faith in Christ then you will find yourself in an atmosphere of the supernatural. Believe and Personalize Every Word of God A promise of God precedes every supernatural act; this is indeed a fact throughout the Bible. However, activating the supernatural realm depends on how we receive each word of God in our daily life. God is able to prove what He has promised to us in His word. The Bible is full of God's promises; it is our part to believe and personalize every word of God, behave accordingly and get it in our favour. Before performing every miracle Jesus had asked them a question, “do you believe?” All those who were able to believe in Him received miracles in their life. Even here Jesus is stating to Martha that “Your brother will be rise again.” At the first instance she couldn't comprehend the idea that her brother would soon come back to life. Mary and Martha thought resurrection would occur at the end of the day. However, Jesus has made a possibility of a miracle for them in a revelation about himself. The revelation is “Jesus is the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in Him will live, even though they die” (John 11.5 I). Although Martha believed in the resurrection at the end of the day, Jesus demanded Martha to modify her belief to a present day supernatural resurrection. When we know Jesus we know the way, the truth and the life; this truth will set us free from all hindrances in life (1 John 5:13). Perceive Supernatural by Comprehending Him in Revelation Since Jesus is the way, the truth and the life, there is possibility of resurrection in our life (John 14:6). Death is a reality of life but only Jesus can give us a life beyond death (Romans 6:23). The Bible says “Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life; whoever does not obey the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God remains on him” (John 3:36). Supernaturally Meet the Physical and Spiritual Needs Whoever says 'the situation seems dismal and there is no hope' Jesus says, “if you believe, you will see the glory of God” (John 11.40). When Jesus called the dead; the deceased had heard the creator – God's voice and came back to life (John 11.43). Jesus knew the fact that even if the decayed body and the situation of the house were not favorable for a miracle; He was able to do it since the resurrection power was in Him. The God whom you trust is able as well as willing to do anything for you if you are able to believe in Him. God has given us His beloved son that we may have life eternal from the wages of sin, sickness and curses of this world (Romans 6:23). Jesus is the bread of life who is able to take away every physical and spiritual hunger of the human race (John 6:35). Commit yourself to Christ and live the rest of your life meaningfully. May you have eternity while receiving Jesus - the light of life (John 11:25, 26, John 8:12). Let us be consistent in faith. Look for the best of God's perspectives and timings to expect the supernatural. Believe and personalize every word of God for the supernatural. Modify every traditional belief systems favorable for all your immediate miracles. Perceive supernatural by comprehending more of His presence in our daily life through more of His revelation. Let us meet all our physical and spiritual needs through the supernatural realm which is open for all who believe in the God of the Bible.
