Jesus answered and said to them, “This is the work of God, that you believe in Him whom He sent.”
John 6:29 / John 5:36
In this passage, people following Him, who had just seen the miracles Jesus performed. They followed Jesus because previously they ate the loaves and the fish (5000 people miracle) and were filled.
Jesus urged them not to follow earthly food, which will perish but to pursue everlasting food, enduring everlasting life. Which they will receive from Jesus because the Father has purposed it.
And Jesus said that He would only do what the Father told Him to do.
Here we see that the works of God are for men to see and believe in Him (Jesus) whom the Father has sent. And in turn, we are called to this also:
“Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do, because I go to My Father.
John 14:12
We are sent as well as believers. We have a light, that should not be hidden under a bushel. We are walking in the authority of Jesus and therefore can pray and see the works of God mentioned in the scriptures.
Let's be bold and petition all heavens to see men touched by the love and hand of God. All for the purpose of winning them into the Kingdom of God, forever.
Father, help us to be as bold as Jesus was. Help us to hear and know to pray effectively.
Father, we know that you hear us and love us, answering our prayers so that You may be glorified. In Jesus' name AMEN
That's all for today, farewell until next time.
