Grabbing your Miracle by Faith

For fifteen years this man had been married without a child. His ministry was bursting at the seams. Many were being blessed, delivered and healed. The anointing was mightily at work as he served God with his all. But he was ridiculed, even by so-called members. Then, one day, a great Apostle of faith- his spiritual Father- released the prophetic Word concerning this man's family, saying, "I am not coming back here until I dedicate your children. My next visit to this Church will be to dedicate your children!"

According to Rev. Frank Sarkodie, when Bishop Matthew Addae-Mensah made that sovereign declaration, he grabbed the Word! Fast forward to three months later, the son calls the Father and says, "Daddy, my wife is pregnant!" Hallelujah! She gave birth to twins and according the Word spoken by the man of God, the twins were dedicated to the Lord in the same auditorium that Word was spoken! When faith grabs the Word, miracles are inevitable!

The third night of the 40 Days of Exploits of Faith took members to a new level of faith as they received a "double dose" of the Word of faith. Bishop Addae-Mensah reiterated, "If your faith cannot handle challenges, it's not faith...anything you can do by yourself does not need faith...faith must be exercised every day." He introduced two speakers: Rev. Frank Appiah of Gospel Light International Church, London and Rev. Frank Sarkodie of Positive Gospel International Church.

Rev. Appiah shared briefly on Faith and Thanksgiving. Using Luke 17:11-19 as his background theme, he taught congregants to call on the Name of Jesus at the hour of need.

He explained that faith is demonstrated by obedience to the Word of God. Adding, he cautioned that sometimes, the hindrance to our miracle is that we believe that we are overqualified for the miracle.

He charged attendees to have a lifestyle of praise.

Rev. Appiah hinted, "God is capable of prospering his people even when they dwell in a foreign land."

Topping it up, Rev. Sarkodie taught members how to grab your miracle by faith. Alluding to "grabbing" a partner, Rev. Sarkodie challenged the brethren to grab their miracle in like manner by faith. He said, "Faith without action is empty. Let action follow your faith. Let action follow your prayer...faith is not just verbal; exercise it."

Walking participants through Mark 10:46-52, the man of God taught amazing mysteries surrounding faith. He warned the brethren to not allow people to draw their attention from the positive to the negative.

The man of God cautioned congregants about three deadly hindrances to receiving from God:

# Doubt

# Unforgiveness

# Sin

In closing, he urged members to pray for more faith since it is a vital necessity for operating at great altitudes in God's Kingdom.

With precision, the man of God gave words of knowledge and prophecy to specific people in the midst of the congregation, delivering them into their inheritance and piloting them in God's plans and purposes. The prophetic unction was strong- as it coursed through the auditorium brethren received their breakthroughs and healings!

'Twas a night of the double dose! Tonight's Service is prepared for you- be sure to attend it at the Phenomenal Faith Cathedral at 6 pm.

A Miracle Inside You


Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the Lord of hosts.
– Zechariah 4:6
I remember the first time I went with the Oral Roberts crusade team to a healing meeting. I was a student and a member of his aircraft crew. I had been a believer a little over four years and knew so little about the things of God, especially meetings like these. However, I was part of the team and eager to learn.


I followed the team inside this huge auditorium. It was filled with sick people. The place smelled, it was so full of disease. Just walking in there sent chills of fear up my spine.


I turned around and headed for the side door as fast as I could, talking to God under my breath. “Listen, I don’t belong here,” I told Him. “I’m getting on a Greyhound bus and heading home right now. They can get that airplane home without me.”


Once I was outside the door, I started talking louder. Then suddenly, I froze. My feet wouldn’t move. I knew it was God who’d stopped me because, inside, I was still on my way to the bus station. But outside, I was stuck to the sidewalk.


I looked up and hollered, “Turn me loose!” But I couldn’t move.


Desperately, I prayed, Please, let me go! I don’t have anything for those people.


That’s when God spoke back to me. Every cell in me heard it. He said, I know you don’t have anything to give them. But I do and that’s why I baptized you in My Spirit.


My feet suddenly turned loose and I knew I had a choice. One was life and one was death. So I turned around and went back.

I was ready to run. But God stopped me. He knew He was in me, and if I’d just stay and stir up what was in me, miracles would happen—and they did.


You have that same miracle-working God inside you. And there are people all around you who need Him. So quit waiting to feel like you have the power to do it and get out there. Once you do, you’ll discover that the power you’ve been waiting on has been right there inside you all the time...waiting on you!
