This morning the Holy Spirit in my communion time with Him spoke to me about not asking the Lord for anything that is conceivable. He wants us to graduate to the place where we only think and act as Jesus acts and does. The Holy Spirit reminded me that on the day Jesus fed the five thousand in John.6 He did not plan the meal and how much He would need, that is the cost necessary to accomplish that goal but just allowed the direction from the Holy Spirit to lead Him how to approach the event that arose.

You will notice that Jesus asked Philip the question: where will we buy bread to feed these people to eat bread, though Jesus Himself knew what He would do. Jesus was inviting Philip to walk in a place where he Philip could walk in what is inconceivable and accomplish a marvel though they had not planned in the natural for the event.

My prayers the Holy Spirit said need to graduate to where I ask for what is not humanly conceivable, but for what will startle men and leave them speechless as the Lord performs His will.The Holy Spirit reminded me that I have been crucified with Christ which points out that I am dead and gone but Christ has taken up residence in me and now wants to express His faith through me to show just how Awesome and stupendous His power is.

This is because His name is greater than any other name and can do anything at any given point in time. Jesus in John.6 did not need money to buy bread, but He needed faith to believe that God could multiply five loaves and two fish to feed five thousand men plus women and children and have enough left over to fill twelve baskets.

Let us look at what was required to make that happen. Jesus we see had not checked the account that morning with Judas to ascertain that there was enough in the account to cover that expense. He just lined up His mind to the Holy Spirit and what and how the Holy Spirit would direct Him to do to make the impossible possible.

Jesus did not spend that morning tossing over and over in His mind how that feeding would take place. He had absolute confidence in what the Holy Spirit would lead Him to do and remained in praise of His Father’s name and only spoke the words His Father directed and fully cooperated with the instructions of the Holy Spirit and went on to perform that marvel that startled men who observed that event and partook of the bread and fish.

To show you clearly that Jesus wants us to be partakers of working such miracles in the now of our lives, the Holy Spirit pointed out to me to listen to what He Jesus said to the disciples in Matthew.16:9-11 Do you not yet understand, or remember the five loaves of the five thousand and how many baskets you took up? 10 Nor the seven loaves of the four thousand and how many large baskets you took up? 11 How is it you do not understand that I did not speak to you concerning bread?

Jesus had expected that the disciples should have understood the process of what happened in each miracle incident of the feeding thousands of people from virtually nothing.

From Jesus’s perspective they should have developed from those two events an unshakeable faith and trust that the Lord could do miracles from nothing without any prior notice being given to them ahead of time. Verse.8 makes it perfectly clear Jesus was not impressed with their comprehension of spiritual matters as yet when He said these words But Jesus, being aware of it, said to them, “O you of little faith, why do you reason among yourselves because you have brought no bread?

Your trust is still way below par because you are struggling concerning provision on such a small matter for your need having experienced far greater provision before on occasions that thousands were fed off the cuff without prior financial preparation.

This is the place the Holy Spirit is pointing out to me this morning that He expects us to be walking in at this season where the faith of Jesus will be demonstrated on the earth again for men to see, marvel and be converted to serve Him because He Jesus has the answers for life’s questions.

We should be looking at and expecting to walk in what we as humans cannot conceive or fathom in our hearts, but which the Holy Spirit can birth in the heart that surrenders totally to Him to express Jesus’s will through them. It is clear that dead men don’t do anything but can be carried around anywhere the carrier of the body chooses and be placed there and displayed at the behest of the carrier.

This is why the Apostle Paul pointed out in Galatians.2:20 that we have been crucified with Christ and it is no longer we who live but Christ who lives in us and the life we now live in the flesh, we live by the faith of the Son of God who gave His life for us. What should be manifested through us should be Jesus in action not our weakness which points to the fact we are still alive.

“The Holy Spirit does not need us alive fighting Him but dead totally submitted to Him.”

Jesus in John.21:18 said these words to Peter Most assuredly, I say to you, when you were younger, you girded yourself and walked where you wished; but when you are old, you will stretch out your hands, and another will gird you and carry you where you do not wish.”

Peter, Jesus was pointing out would be so dead that He allowed the Holy Spirit to gird him and take him where Peter would not go on his own initiative. This is what the Holy Spirit is alluding to this morning in His conversation to me that we should be asking Him to do what is inconceivable from our perspective but is the mind of Christ for us to accomplish on behalf of Jesus by the power of the Holy Spirit.

For my part there were two countries I said I would never go to in my life again Sierra Leone and Nigeria but the Holy Spirit changed my heart on both of them and gave me a love for the people that I never believed I could ever have and I have ministered for Jesus to them and had wonderful miraculous results. I recall the season I was praying for both Countries by direction of the Holy Spirit and after that started just coming in contact with Nigerians and Sierra Leonians who needed my spiritual help in London, then Botswana and the USA.

We cannot run away from the Lord’s plan for our lives as it will keep surfacing in our events and we need to just submit to His will and let the Holy Spirit have His way in us. My parents were Sierra Leoneans but when I left Sierra Leone in 1985 and I thought then that things were bad. I had said I would never come back to this Country. I called it wretched but in 1992 the Lord melted my heart and I started praying for it with the love and grace of the Holy Spirit.

The Holy Spirit began to give me visions of me ministering there which went on to manifest when I went there in 1993 and saw the Lord through the Holy Spirit do such marvels in terms of miracles, signs and wonders that I grew to love the people and the country again and have been there often on so many more occasions over the years and seen the hand of the Lord manifested in many ways.

In conclusion this morning I pray that these words will penetrate your hearts and you will find the grace supplied through them to love what you have hated and line up back with the purpose of God for your lives and go on to receive and walk in all Jesus has purposed for you to do for His glory outside your comfort zone in places you never believed you would ever go to and, thus glorify the name of Jesus.

Let your heart also be stirred to walk in the place with the Holy Spirit where you only ask what is naturally inconceivable to you but which is the heart and mind of Christ for you.

I beseech you to surrender your heart, soul that is your (mind, will ,emotions, intellect) and body to go do what the Holy Spirit leads and guides you to do which contravenes natural law but will show forth the might of the hand of the Lord on your behalf in the name of Jesus. Amen.
