Memory Verse: ‭‭"But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be ..." - Acts‬ ‭1:8‬ ‭KJV‬‬ Bible Text: Luke‬ ‭17:14‬ ‭KJV‬‬ 14. ‭‭‭And when he saw them, he said unto them, Go shew yourselves unto the priests. And it came to pass, that, as they went, they were cleansed. INSPIRATION: In a world that is in dire needs of miracles, we must align with the Holy Spirit to ensure we becoming working miracles that bring relief to people. Sadly, many persons have erroneously believed miracles happen by their own efforts and that praises for all such miraculous acts should come to them. There's nothing farther from the truth than this. Miracles are divine acts of God to mankind so that the glory should return to Him. We should stop feeling entitled and claiming the responsibility of healing that was never ours. You were only His channel but the miracle was His own acts! In Luke's account, Jesus simply told the men who sought healing from Him to go show themselves to the priest. In the cause of their simple obedience, their  healing occurred. They didn't need to get to the priest for it to happen; they already met the High Priest, that is, Jesus. Miracles occur when we encounter Jesus. Anything is possible when we obey and express our faith in God. The opposite is true, too, when we disobey and show no faith in God. In our disobedience and faithlessness, we deny God an opportunity to work miracles for His own glory. God is ever willing to act, but our faith and obedience are the major ingredients that cheat the world of its miracles and robs God of His glory. TODAY'S TAKE HOME: ‭God can do anything but on earth, He operates through men. You can either be His channel to gain access to others or a stumbling block to their miracle. Don't make the latter your preference. It robs God of His glory. PRAYER: Dear Lord, please, help me to act in faith and obedience, and cause miracles to take place each time I do. I refuse to rob You of the glory You deserve, in Jesus name.
