...Insignificant Results

by Bishop Matthew Addae-Mensah

Ministers who give special attention to preaching and teaching the Gospel with faith do outstanding and extraordinary things. Signs and wonders follow their ministration (see Hebrews 4:2).

Faith in God and His Word will make unimaginable things available to you. With faith in your heart, you could tread where angels dare to tread and prove to modern critics of the Bible that it is the only authentic Word of God (see Luke 1:45).

Even though these days some preachers agree that we should preach the Gospel with signs and wonders following, they see miracles such as raising the dead, casting out demons and cleansing of lepers as impossible. John Wesley described such folks as "mental assent believers." They mentally agree and believe that the Bible is indeed the true Word of God, but they do not believe with their hearts. They have faith in their heads but not in their hearts. Such ministers can quote all the Bible verses about faith but their works prove the opposite.

These days some Churches, Bible Colleges and seminaries raise ministers of the Gospel with more of secular theology than those who go to Bible colleges and seminaries, and believe in real Biblical theology based on the unadulterated Word of God.

Secular theologians work hard to promote unbelief through sense knowledge. They live their lives by sight, idealism, realism and logic instead of faith. To them God is only supernatural in myth, and in the times of the early apostles but not now.

To them, Pentecostalism is only reduced to speaking in new tongues, and the Word of God is only for doctrine but not a source of power for daily living. They demonize and criticise any revelation they cannot comprehend and call it occultism. They live in ignorance and major in unbelief.

There are many nice ministers who are full of the Holy Spirit but not of faith. They believe in being born again, sanctification, speaking in tongues, prayer and evangelism but when you hear them talking outside the pulpit, their speeches are full of unbelief. All they do is to wait for God to move first, and sometimes criticise every move of God.

Get more of the Word of God into your spirit so that you'll become full of faith and experience extraordinary signs and wonders in your life and ministry.
