A WORD FOR TODAY "HEAR YE HIM..." "...While he yet spake, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them: and behold a voice out of the cloud, which said, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye him.Matthew 17:1-5 When God said concerning Jesus, "...this is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye him...," He was talking to all of creation! All of nature�animate and inanimate�has been commanded to be subject to Jesus. The rocks, wind, trees, water, fish, angels, demons, etc�everything in heaven, on earth, and under the earth,"have been commanded by God to hear and obey Jesus. Philippians 2:9-10 says, "Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth. have been commanded by God to hear and obey Jesus. Philippians 2:9-10 says, "Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth." No wonder everything Jesus said came to pass; He had absolute mastery and exercised dominion over all things. He talked to a tree and it withered (Mark 11:12-22); He spoke to a raging tempest and it hushed (Mark 4:35-39); He talked to bread and fish and multiplied them to feed the multitude (Matthew 14:17-21, Matthew 15:32-38); He talked to corpses and they came back to life (Luke 7:11-15, John 11:32-44)! At His word, maimed limbs were restored, blind eyes opened, deaf ears were unstopped, and demons scampered in terror (Matthew 15:30)! There were demonstrations of the miraculous each time Jesus spoke; all creation stood to order, and gave heed to His spoken word, acting accordingly. Now, about us, John writes, "...as He (Jesus) is, so are we in this world" (1 John 4:17). The Lord Jesus gave us the authority to act in His stead; we have the power of attorney to use His Name. Therefore, when you speak, all of creation stands at attention to obey. You have the authority to speak to anything in His Name and effect whatever positive changes you desire. PASTOR CHRIS
