Truly, truly, 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 the Father. Whatever you ask in My name, that will I do, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you ask Me anything in My name, I will do it. John 14:12-14.
Today your LORD (יהוה) God (אלהים) says:
My Son told you that whoever believes would do the works He did and greater. John 14:12. If you stop there it sounds impossible. Jesus healed the sick, raised the dead, gave sight to the blind, made the mute speak, the deaf hear, and the lame walk. No one else has ever been able to do this for every person in a crowd who came to be healed or for every person who individually came for healing. Jesus did everything well. Mark 7:37.
Then how is it that I tell you that whoever believes will do the works He did and greater? My Son explained how to you: “Because I go to the Father and whatever you ask in My name I will do.” And He repeated it again: “If you ask Me for anything in My name, I will do it.” John 14:12-14.
All things are possible to the one who is believing, and Jesus is the only one who always believes at every moment. Jesus has great faith, He never had a doubt. It is His faith that you rely on to move mountains, calm winds, and heal. Not yours. You need only have faith in His faith to do what you need done.
Have the faith of God not just faith in God. Mark 11:22. Boast in His faith. Let him who would boast, boast in the Lord. Put your faith in His belief on your behalf.
Jesus is your righteousness, your purity, your wisdom, your way to Me, your Shepherd, your Bread of Life, your Healer, your Victory, and your Provider. All My promises find their “yes” in Him. He is your everything. Let Him also be your faith.
Faith is not work. It is a rest in the faith and power of Jesus at My right hand. For as He is so are you in this world.
Keep your eyes on Jesus, the author and finisher of your faith. Do not put your eyes on yourself and try to work up your own faith. Look to His, just as the Centurion did. Jesus said the Centurion had great faith but you will note the Centurion did not have faith that he could speak the word and heal his servant, he had faith in Jesus’ authority to speak the Word and heal his servant. Matthew 8:8-9. And My Son called that great faith.
My Son also remarked that the woman with the issue of blood who was healed when she touched the corner of His garment had been saved by her faith. She did not have faith in her own power to heal, but she had faith in Jesus’ power to do so.
What is lacking in your faith, His faith fills up the lack. He is the perfecter of your faith. Romans 12:2. All authority in Heaven and on earth is His. So whatever you ask in His Name He will do. You rely on His faith to complete yours.
You are complete in Christ. Rooted in Him and built upon Him and established in the faith. Colossians 2:7. Draw all your nourishment and strength from Him. Like the branch in the vine. You can do nothing without Him. He has all authority. Whatever you ask in His Name He will do. It is not by your own power and godliness but His that heals and does miracles. Just as He is your righteousness before Me, He has the faith that completes yours to move everything in Heaven and on earth.
The father of the boy with convulsions understood this from what My Son told him. It caused him to proclaim: “I do believe Lord but help my unbelief.” Mark 9:24. And then the extra measure of faith he lacked, the shortfall, was filled up by Jesus and the boy was healed.
When you put the little you have into His hands, He multiplies it—like the five loaves and the two fish. The boy gave what he had to Jesus and Jesus fed the crowd with it. Jesus filled up the lack.
And the Holy Spirit takes what is of Jesus and gives it to you. John 16:14. And that includes His authority and power and His faith. But it goes even further for all things that I, the Father, have are His. John 16:15. And one of the nine gifts of the Holy Spirit is faith. 1 Corinthians 12:9. My faith acting through you for the good of all—My faith completing and perfecting your faith in Me. Like when Moses raised his staff and parted the Red Sea.
Peter and John knew the same. After My Son had returned to My right hand in Heaven they healed a man crippled from birth that sat outside the Beautiful Gate of the Temple begging. The people in the Temple were amazed at such a display of power so they rushed to stare at Peter and John, but Peter cried out, “Men of Israel, why are you amazed at this, or why do you gaze at us, as if by our own power or piety we had made him walk? Acts 3:12. He then explained how the healing had happened at their hands, “It is the name of Jesus which has strengthened this man whom you see and know; and the faith which comes through Him has given him this perfect health in the presence of you all.” Acts 3:16. It was the faith which comes through Him that gave the crippled man perfect health and gave Peter and John the power to do it—the power of faith in His Name.
Jesus is the High Priest of your profession—your profession of faith. Rely on His ability to perform it. Give Him the offering of your faith in Him as you declare His Word over your life and He will give you back a rich harvest of faith—His faith. He will perform the miracle based on His faith.
When your faith runs out, His does not. Put your faith in His belief on your behalf. He has faith that by His stripes you are healed. He went through the beating. He knows your sins have been punished and forgiven—He bore them and went through death, the grave and hell for you. He knows the power of the Resurrection—He has experienced it. Live by the faith of the Son of God. Latch unto His faith and your faith will never falter because the burden to believe for the miracle is His, you have only to believe in His power to do it—like the Centurion of great faith, like the woman with the issue of blood whose faith saved her, and like the father of the boy with convulsions who gave the little faith he had to My Son and let My Son’s faith perfect his to complete the work.
Make Jesus your confidence and your boast for everything in your life.
Have you noticed that often when people came to be healed by Jesus He asked them, “Do you believe that I can do this?” Matthew 9:28. He did not ask if they had faith to be healed on their own. He only asked if they had faith that He could do it and that was enough. The burden is not on you to do the miracle, only to know He can. Fear is useless, what is needed is trust. Trust in Jesus at My right Hand interceding for you.
This should not sound strange to you. Have you ever asked someone you thought stronger in faith or knowledge of Me to pray for you thinking they could get the result you cannot get on your own prayer? Have you ever gone to a healing service or meeting because there is a famous evangelist there whom you have heard has miracles of healing when they pray over people? You believe in their faith to obtain your miracle. But they are not God as Jesus is. Jesus is true man BUT He is also true God. No one else qualifies as He does. And He is the one mediator between God and man. You do not need another mediator.
Jesus emptied Himself and became man but He always remained God. He is one hundred percent man and one hundred percent God. He never failed to heal anyone who came to Him. His faith never failed. And it will never fail you. He will supply for your lack. And I will supply for ALL of your needs in Christ Jesus according to My riches in Glory. For all I have is His and all He has is Mine.
I love you. Do not worry about how strong your faith is in what you can do, keep your eyes on Jesus and access His faith to supply for your needs. There is no greater, higher, or more perfect faith for He has the very faith of God, which is My own. By faith, I created the universe and uphold it.
