I have been on to something that I feel has strong implications in ministry. John 5:19" For the Father loveth the Son and sheweth him all things that himself doeth and he will shew him greater works than these that ye may marvel"....before this Christ says...I say unto you ."The Son can do nothing of himself but what he seeth the Father do for what things soever he doeth these also doeth the Son likewise."
We all know that God never rests. Yes it is recorded that God rested after creation but even Christ performed miracles on the sabbath because He saw the Father perform miracles on the sabbath.

What is so telling about this is the tense of the two words seeth and doeth. If I tell you I see or I seeth ( same tense) it is the present tense. If you say that it could mean the very close present then I would have no problem with that if that is your interpretation.

Would you agree that God has given us the power to loose and the power to bind in Jesus name What Christ is telling us is that He was always in the present tense with God the Father and the Holy Spirit. He did on a daily basis what he saw the Father doing that day. What ever God was doing that day Christ did the same thing. A very important point. When Christ saw God healing the blind man then Christ found that man and loosed the blind man to see. The difference between Christ and us is that He did daily what He saw the Father doing. He did not delay . He did it the same day.

Many of our prayers are not answered because we are ahead of God. If God the Father has not done it yet then it will not get done. We must be in tune with God and doing what God is doing on that day. We must not get ahead of God.

As God's elect on the earth ...God has always had an agency on the earth that has bound and loosed what it is in God's will to do. If no one is found to be obiedient then miracles pass us by , people die, people are not healed and the enemy has his way unhindered..

For the last 400 years after the prophets the voice of God was not heard on the earth. It was the spiritual dark ages on the earth ( strange that the Dark Ages lasted 800 years or twice what the spiritual dark ages lasted ).

What I see happening, and I must put on my best pair of spiritual glasses with the best bifocal, is that many miracles also do not take place because we are late.

I am emphatic when I say that. I feel the tense of His sayings are everything. Christ used the present tense for a very good reason and a very good purpose. He was illustrating in the most simple of terms how important it is to get into the present tense of God.

In conclusion God is doing miracles evey day. God never rests. 24 X 7 God is performing miracles. God has given all authority and all power to us as members as bodies in the body of Christ.

Do you see God today. Do you see what God is doing this moment in time. Loose what God is loosing this moment and see a miracle. Bind what God is binding this moment and you will see a miracle today. Nothing is hidden from Christ and nothing is hidden from us.

One last point.

John 5 : 17....Jesus states that he was working "hitherto" and "I work"...what I feel this means is that the Pharisees were trying to get Him to justify his actions...so he was saying that He was only doing what He had seen the Father doing "up to that time".

There is a deeper meaning to this . Christ was saying that He was only doing what he had seen God do before on Sabbaths. So if God had done it before on the Sabbath then it was OK for Him to do it. Many miracles we can perform just because we have seen God perform other miracles in similar situations or circumstances. We may have seen other similarities to things we know are in the will of God and that gives us the faith and the surety that we are in the will of God. We can align ourselves with Gods word and the bible and know that we are in the will of God...

but it is always best to be exactly in tune with what we are seeing God do that day, that moment.....get in tune and see what God is doing today ....and you shall have your miracle...In Christ ...gregor
