 For as the Father raises the dead and gives life to them, even so the Son gives life to whom He will. John 5.21

The Jews in Biblical times did not understand that God is composed of three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit, and the Father is greater than all (John 14.28b). Jesus revealed the divine essence, being the Son, the Word of God. The Gospel of John begins by teaching the function of the Son: In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God (John 1.1). Christ is the Word, the One who created everything.

Jesus told the disciples that there were other truths that they would learn later (John 16.12). The Master did not minister them first, because they could not yet understand them. Then, through the apostles, the teaching of what we need to know began. Today, everything is in the Bible. There is no new revelation, for the foreknowledge of the Lord has recorded everything in the Scriptures. By examining them, you can assume your rights.

In our midst, there are people with less understanding and others with more. However, as they receive Biblical instruction, all revelations are passed on to them: For to everyone who has, more will be given, and he will have abundance; but from him who does not have, even what he has will be taken away (Matthew 25.29). The secret is to take hold of what you learn day by day from the Lord, to be successful and please Him, who is good!

It is wonderful to be at the Lord’s feet to learn the Truth. Otherwise, no one will be able to receive more from God, and what is worse: everything can be taken away from you. So, know the Holy Book, and when you learn some fact in it, take hold of it. The Lord would be “chattering” if He spoke something that was not profitable for man to build himself up and do the work successfully.

The days of the great worldwide revival are drawing near. In them, God’s children will do the same works as Christ did, spreading the Good News and driving sinners to delirium when they see how the miracles performed by Him are also carried out before their eyes. Seeing the Lord operate as He did in His days here on Earth, people will faint with joy. With God, it is always “yes” and “amen” (2 Corinthians 1.20).

The same Gospel preached by the Savior, with demonstrations of signs and wonders, must be preached everywhere, for the end to come (Matthew 24.14). Then the wicked will conclude that the message of salvation is real, by seeing the sick healed; the lost forgiven; the troubled set free; all the people receiving forgiveness of sins, and the saved being baptized in the Holy Spirit to join the overcomers.

When we are one with the Lord, He will use us in a splendid way. Therefore, we must seek His will. Then we will be useful in His hands. The Master resurrects and quickens whomever He wants. We have to seek biblical guidance and go to missions, for the time of the harvest has come. We need anointed reapers.

In Christ, with love,
