Greater Works

by Billy Joe Daugherty | Uncategorized

Most assuredly, 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 My Father. And whatever you ask in My name, that I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
(John 14:12-13)

Jesus said that you will not only do what He did, you will also do greater things. This promise is for all believers and not just the twelve apostles. Notice that verse 12 says, “He who believes….” That includes any born-again person who believes God’s Word.

Think of all the miracles Jesus performed while He was on the earth. Now think of those miracles in light of John 14:12. In other words, see yourself doing what Jesus did.

See yourself speaking to the blind man and commanding him to see. See yourself commanding the paralytic to rise and walk in the name of Jesus. See yourself casting out devils and praying for withered hands to be restored.

The Scripture says you will do the same works Jesus did. If you were told you would be taking the place of another person in a factory or business operation, you would inquire about that individual’s job responsibilities. You would see yourself doing that job. This is exactly what Jesus has called you to do.

You have been called to fulfill the ministry of Jesus on the earth today. Don’t despair; Jesus guarantees you His support. You can ask the Father anything in His name, and it will be done for you. (John 16:23)

Stand in the authority you have in the name of Jesus. Then be bold and imitate Jesus in everything that He did. As you envision yourself ministering as Jesus did, you will.

DECLARATION OF FAITH

I do the same works that Jesus did and greater ones too. Whatever I ask the Father in Jesus’ name will be granted so the Father may be glorified.
