Some years ago, I organized a crusade together with some of my friends and we witnessed amazing miracles. One of such was the healing of a little girl who had braces on her legs because she couldn’t walk. The little girl’s sisters had brought her to the front, a few meters away from the platform I ministered on. I didn’t lay hands on her, I just stretched my hand towards her and she was completely healed; she walked normally without the braces, glory to God! Some Christians believe such things can only happen by ‘black magic,’ whatever that means. But they are ignorant of the Word and the power of God.
When God wanted to bring the children of Israel out of Egypt, He brought different plagues upon the Egyptians until Pharaoh finally succumbed to His demands. God sent Moses as His front-man, and it was through him that all the plagues came. God said to him, “Moses, stretch forth your hands…” and each time he did, a different plague came upon the land of Egypt. When Moses brought the children of Israel out of captivity and they were frustrated by the Red Sea, again God said, “...lift thou up thy rod, and stretch out thine hand over the sea, and divide it…” (Exodus 14:16), you know the rest of the story. This man wasn’t even filled with the Holy Spirit. How much more should greater miracles be wrought when we that are filled with the Holy Spirit stretch forth our hands!
The devil isn’t so smart; he’s the counterfeiter. He perverts the operation of the power of God, and tries to make it look like he originated it. But the sad thing is many of God’s children would easily believe in his power than in the power of God.
You must understand that we aren’t ordinary, there’s something about our hands. Your hands aren’t just for holding and carrying things. God made them to transmit His power to the hurting and dying world. You’ll be amazed at what He would do in you, with you and through you when you yield yourself to Him.
