Qualified and Expected

We all are qualified and expected to operate in the supernatural, just like Jesus.  Jesus' command is the same for everyone - "Follow me".  What exactly did Jesus do?  

"Jesus traveled throughout the region of Galilee, TEACHING in the synagogues and ANNOUNCING the Good News about the Kingdom. And he HEALED every kind of disease and illness." - Matthew 4:23

Teaching renews minds.
Announcing imparts revelation.
Healing demonstrates His authority.

Jesus declared that whoever believes in Him will do the same works He did, and even greater, because He goes to the Father (John 14:12).  This is for everyone who believes, not just vocational ministers.  It's for you and me.

We are qualified because the same Spirit who raised Christ from the dead resides in us (Romans 8:11).  We are expected because Jesus constantly demonstrated how to walk as a man in right relationship with God and then said we would do the same.

Jesus did His miracles not as God, but as a man in right relationship with God.  He showed us how to really live.
